When Edison arrived at the door of Karl's house, there was already a man and a woman waiting at the door, although the man was dressed in coarse linen clothes, but his body was strong and masculine, and he seemed to be a warrior professional, otherwise the family would not dare to open a hotel casually.

As for the woman, although her appearance is not stunning, and there are a few freckles on her face, she is decent and good-looking, standing gently and virtuously on the left side of the man. Seeing the figures of Edison and Carl, the man hurriedly beckoned:

"Welcome, welcome guests, we have prepared clean water and bread, and the steaming food is boiling in the kitchen, please come in!"

Edison's heart warmed when he saw this momentum, and he followed Frey into the house, although the room was a little cold from the outside, but the inside was well kept, and the firewood burning in the fireplace warmed the whole room, although there was no magic source here, and the lighting was replaced by an oil lamp, but it also clearly illuminated all corners of the room, making people feel at home as soon as they entered.

Looking inside, there is a simple round table, a row of small wine cabinets of various liquors, although the material of these things is not expensive, but from the style point of view, it is more likely that the man made it himself.

The decoration of the whole family hotel is not luxurious, but it reflects a sense of homeness everywhere, which makes Edison can't help but show a relaxed expression and bow slightly.

Carl, who was observing from time to time, saw this scene, and immediately asked with a childish expression: "Big brother, how about staying with us at night?"

In this regard, Edison naturally readily agreed to this request!

So the hostess Jane here spoke: "This guest, may I ask what you want to eat." How long will you stay, do you want to see the house first?"

Edison thought for a moment. He said, "Bring me a stewed chicken and a white bread." I'm going to stay for three days with a serving of rice, so I'm not going to look at the room, and I'm going to bring things up as soon as possible. ”

After listening to Edison's request, the hostess quickly went down to the kitchen, but the man Frey took two large cups and went to the opposite side of Edison, and at the same time poured two full glasses of ale, and said, "Drink it! Warm up, that's what I invited. ”

Edison's expression was instantly embarrassed, because whether it was in his previous life or in this life, although he would not get drunk easily when he drank alcohol, he could not drink the taste of a thousand cups that was not enough for a wine worm, but felt as bitter as drinking Chinese medicine.

In desperation, he could only shirk and said, "I'm sorry, I don't drink, because I think drinking alcohol will affect my spell casting!"

Undoubtedly, this was Edison's best excuse. On any occasion, as soon as this sentence comes out, there is basically no one who forces a magician to drink.

Although 18,000 years later, many magicians have debated this assertion, and some have even put forward the argument that drinking alcohol can speed up spell casting, but it is not accepted by the mainstream.

As the male host, Frey was a little taken aback. blurted out, "You're a magician, why don't you look like it!" he said, looking at his son Carl, who was guarding outside the kitchen on the other side.

Carl, on the other hand, was paying attention to the movement in the kitchen, but his ears were also attentive to the conversation. After all, there are not many people in the small village, and some things can only be known by chatting with some caravans that come occasionally.

Hearing this, he hurriedly said with some exaggeration: "Yes! This big brother is really a magician, but he's amazing. Today I saw that his clothes were covered in mud when he fell into the ground, and then he got up and brought up a ball of water, which was cleaned in a short time. ”

At this time, the atmosphere was completely frozen, and the two sides didn't know what to say for a while, and finally Frey spoke first, and he asked cautiously: "Didn't you say that magicians all wear magic robes, and magic robes are waterproof and dustproof?"

At this time, Edison's face became even more bitter, and he silently spit out two words: "Save money!"

That means that in order to save money, he didn't buy that kind of high-end goods that are waterproof and dustproof. Probably among all the traversers, although Edison was not the poorest when he went out, he was undoubtedly the most deductible......

But I can't help it! I thought of becoming a high-level magician, and I had to form a church and become a god in the future...... That's everywhere where you have to spend money, and naturally he can save money when he spends it, anyway, it's waterproof and dustproof or something, and my brother's [Primary Liquid Manipulation Technique] is superb, and it's not just a solution, it's a big deal to practice his magic proficiency.

But as soon as these words came out, the atmosphere became even more stiff, but fortunately, Jane walked out at this time, and a pot of steaming stewed chicken was also served, which quickly broke this embarrassment, and Edison was even more generous to let Carl, who was just swallowing saliva when he looked at this basin, come to the table to eat together, and after repeatedly shirking, Carl still nibbled on a chicken ass with relish.

Seeing Carl's mouth full of oil and a little shredded meat sticking to his nose, both Edison and his parents couldn't help but smile wisely.

Then Jane doted on Carl to remove the shreds from the tip of his nose and wiped his face with a towel, which made the initial little estrangement between the two sides disappear in an instant.

This time it was Edison who spoke first: "I don't know...... Does Mr. Ines know how to get to a market near here?"

And Frey said happily: "Mr. or something is too divided, I am almost 45 years old this year, you can call me Uncle Frey, I am not very old to listen to your voice, but the market near here was lively a month ago, but it dispersed half a month ago, if you don't believe it, I will show you the way, if you can probably see some scattered merchants who are unwilling to go in the past." ”

Edison hurriedly said, "Where, where, how can you not believe it? It's troublesome to Uncle Frey, and I still want to go and have a look." But Uncle Frey is 45 years old this year, but I really can't see it! How can ordinary villagers be so well maintained by uncle, uncle, you are a warrior!"

Karl, who had been listening from the sidelines, spoke, and said proudly, "Of course, my father is not only a warrior, but also the best carpenter in the village? ”

Then Carl exaggerated his fingers, opened his arms, and said with his hands dancing: "Just like last time on my birthday, my father 'snapped' and broke such a big tree, and then 'brushed' and made me several wooden carvings, and other children in the village were envious......! Hmph!"

Although Carl's words digressed as he spoke, they also confirmed Edison's guess and amused the two at the same time.

Frey slapped Carl's head with some tears and laughter, and said, "Okay, I'll talk to the guest, what are you talking about, go to the room and play with your wood carving, if you're good, I'll make it for you on your birthday next year, this time make a 'big cloud whale', it's the kind you can ride him on the water and then pedal it!"

After saying this, Karl immediately behaved and ran back to his room without saying anything, but before closing the door, he still said uneasily: "We said okay!

Frey nodded again and again, and said, "Okay, okay!"

Seeing that his father had promised, Carl reluctantly closed the door.

Only then did Frey turn around and say, "This guest really makes you laugh." ”

Edison shook his head with a smile and said, "It's okay! It's okay, let's talk about how to get there! By the way, if the slimes here are sold or not?......"

As soon as the sky darkened completely.

At 11 o'clock in the evening, Edison came to the guest room on the second floor, and randomly chose a room on the far right, after opening the door, there was a clean quilt and a small hanger inside; although the whole room was not big, it did a good job in the use and layout of the space, and did not give people a feeling of oppression and narrowness, but because you could see the small river in the village and the woods across the river through the window, there was a feeling of sudden enlightenment.

Edison said to himself, "Yes, I thought the accommodation in the village was very poor?!"

Suddenly a wave of tiredness hit, it was a quiet and comfortable night, Edison, who had been on the road for a day, slept exceptionally peacefully and sweetly. (To be continued.) )
