Salin nodded, he was serious, because the expression on Rex's face was more reverent than the teacher who went to see her. You must know that Rex himself is about to break through to the sixth level, so that a figure who is close to the reverence of a sixth-level magician, Salin must of course be even more respected.

Through the thick shade, there is a small door. A rudimentary magic circle was painted on the door, and Rex rubbed it on it, signaling Saleen to wait patiently.

After a while, footsteps were heard, the door was opened, and a child of seven or eight years old was standing in the doorway, dressed in a somewhat ridiculous robe, and had been dragged to the ground. The child's eyes were bright, and he looked outside vigilantly, "What's the matter?"

Salin was ashamed to find out that the child was a high-level magic apprentice.

"Ask to see Master Joey. Rex said succinctly, handing over a letter.

The child didn't answer the letter, and said directly: "Come with me." ”

Salin wondered as he followed the child through the courtyard, bypassing a small building, the courtyard behind which was still small, with two trees planted in the yard, both of which had lush branches and leaves, their roots were entangled, and their bark was dark green. Salin swallowed a mouthful of saliva and recognized it as the Sacred Mulberry and the Ghost Oak.

Combining two rare pieces of wood with alchemy is the best magic wand.

These two trees are probably thousands of years old, and their value cannot be estimated. In the palace, Salin saw too many rare things, but they were all dead. These two trees are living magical materials.

A magic wand made of such a material can store at least two mana. If you get three or five hundred of them ready, any mage can take out an army at will.

Salin resisted the urge to climb the tree and break off two branches, people dared to plant this thing in the yard, and I am afraid that no one in the whole Yanjing would dare to come and spread the wilderness.

"Go in by yourself, I still have something to do, I'm busy. The boy pointed to the two-story wooden building facing him, turned and dragged his robe and ran away.

"Aren't you afraid we're fake?" said Salin, a little strangely.

"If we're troublemakers, we'll never be able to get out of this yard again. Lord Rex looked at Salin with a warning look, and Salin quickly nodded his head to show that he understood. It seems that the people in this wooden building are also fierce and evil. It doesn't matter if you're going the wrong way or you're here to make trouble, there's only one end.

The wooden building was as clean and quaint as the building, and before I walked up the building, a young voice came from inside the building: "Is it lace? I'm downstairs, I don't have to go up." ”

The door on the first floor opened automatically, and it was pitch black inside, and Surrey couldn't feel any elemental fluctuations. The light stops at the doorway and doesn't shine through. Rex tugged at Lazarin's sleeve and stepped into the darkness first.

The use of dark magic to this extent is that Salin can only admire.

Through the dark barrier, Saleen enters a magical laboratory. There was no metal in the lab, a stone table, carved from a single piece of nephrite. The stone platform was as neat as a table that had not yet been served, and there was nothing but six carved magic arrays.

A young man appeared in front of the two of them like a ghost, he had long green hair, his eyes were also green, his body was slender, his skin was very white, and the hairs on his skin were also white, like a layer of frost and snow.

"Little Lace, you came back, you are very loud, why did you come to see me for three days?" Salin only then realized that this person's appearance was young, but his actual age was probably impossible to estimate. Because of those turquoise eyes, Salin only glanced at it, as if he had fallen into an illusory space, in this space, time flew by, and Salin felt that his body was gradually losing strength, as if he had aged in an instant.

"Master!" Rex startled.

"I remember when you were younger, you used to call me Joey. ”

"I wasn't sensible at the time. Rex said embarrassedly, relieved to see Saleen get out of the illusion.

"Now that you're sensible, what are you going to do with me with such a dying man?" asked the mysterious Joey, pointing to Salin, Lord Rex.

"What?" Exclaimed Rex and Saleen at the same time.

"If he stops practicing and finds a place to eat and wait for death, he may be able to live for three or five years. If you continue, I'm afraid you'll have to take his corpse with you when you leave. Little Lace, are you asking me to make a puppet for you? Necromancy, I'm not very good at it. ”

Saleen's body was a little stiff, if someone else said this, he wouldn't believe it, but this Joey, who didn't use any magic on himself, almost took his life after just looking at it.

The words behind the magic string potion he had always remembered in his heart - the magic string potion could transform the body of a magic apprentice to form a special magic string, but this unnatural way would make the magic apprentice pay an unpredictable price. I remind those who read this text that what you give will exceed what you get.

What you pay will exceed what you get! Is it true that the price of getting the magic string is to pay for your life?

"Master, the teacher has also seen his problem, please save him. Rex quickly regained her composure, she knew that there was something wrong with Saleen's body before she came, but she didn't expect to be terminally ill. However, if Joey is willing to help, even if Saleen's soul runs to another plane, it can be recovered.

"Your teacher is a good person, why should I save him?"

Seeing that Rex was speechless, Joey said: "This kid is not your friend, not your subordinate, I spent my energy saving him, and he won't thank me, so it's better to let him die." ”

Salin calmed down, and while he was thinking, he asked, "Master Joy, what price do I need to pay for you to help?"

"The price?"

Joey looked at Saleen curiously and said, "Didn't you think about what you had to pay when you took the magic string potion?"

Salin's heart seemed to have been smashed by a war hammer, and his whole body was dizzy. Magic String Elixir! Joey knows the secret of the Magic String Elixir! The last bit of fantasy is gone, and Joey doesn't deceive himself.

"Master, I am a Skochenian, and we believe that everything is tradable. Salin ignored Rex's gaze, he had a lot of things on hand, and it was a fatal temptation for a magician. He didn't believe that the mysterious magician would not be moved.

"I'm not rare. Rex, drive him away, if not, I'll do it. Joey said coldly.

Ignoring Joey's words, Saleen took a magic pen from the shelf next to him and drew a magic circle on the stone platform. This magic array was drawn in a mess by him, because he had not systematically learned how to draw a formation. This magic circle was obtained by him in the temple of the goddess, there were twenty-five in all, and according to his recollections, he could only draw to this extent.

Joey didn't stop Salin, just stood there, watched Saleen finish drawing this magic array, and then said, "You can go." ”

"You don't think that when I die, you can take everything, right? There are 25 magic arrays in total, you save me, and I will give you the original drawings. If I don't save it, I'll burn these 25 magic arrays. Of course, you can also grab it, and now I'll take it with me. ”

"Rob you?" Joey smiled and said, "This is the most precious magic array I've ever seen, but it's not enough for me to do that kind of thing." I didn't save you, because it was not worth it for your teacher, and you must have taken the magic string potion behind his back. It is also his sorrow to have a student like you. ”

Salin's eyebrows were twisted together, and his face was hard to look at. Jason is like a parent in his heart. He never showed this feeling, just because he was afraid of losing. When Joey said this, it touched the secret in his heart. Salin sank his face and said, "I know you don't care to do anything to me, but please take back your words, you are insulting a great magician." ”

"No one can be called great in front of me. Joey said disapprovingly. His young face looked so hateful that Saleen wanted to punch him off the nose.

"I will always keep your words in my heart until the day I die. Salin saluted respectfully, turned and walked out of the building. There was some despair in his heart, and the magician saw that he was suffering from a hidden illness in his body and couldn't help, so he asked Rex to bring him to see Joey. I didn't expect Joey to seem to be able to see through everything and refuse any temptation.

It turns out that in this world, there really is something that cannot be traded.

From the very beginning, he has been making mistakes, making magic string potions behind his teacher's back, trading with thieves, taking bribes from the viscount, and killing the son of Count Sufonso. The teacher has been tolerant, but he turned around and fled.

What you give, you will get more than you get. Salin finally understood the meaning of this sentence, many things are irreparable, he is so selfish, he has never thought about others. Did Sika's hometown survive the last winter? I thought about it many times, but none of them really helped.

Then die, die or die, and Sika won't have to be afraid of him. It's just that I'm still sorry for the teacher.

Salin walked out the door with tears in his eyes, not because he feared death, but because he saw through his own cowardice.

In front of the door was a dark barrier, and Saleen stepped through it, but stepped into a directionless space. There is no light in this space, it is dark to the extreme.

"Master!" Rex saw that Salin was suddenly frozen there, motionless, and knew that he had fallen under Joey's magic.

"I don't like him. Joey smiled, his green eyes no longer cold.

"Everyone makes mistakes, and I've been to investigate his past......"

"He's important?" Joy waited for Rex's answer with a magician's curiosity.

Rex glanced at the magic circle drawn by Saleen on the stone platform and said, "I'm afraid it's really important." ”
