529 Books in the afternoon
After the summon came out, the rule was to give himself a name, and Zhou Shu didn't give himself the name of the man who gave the goldfish to his new name, so he secretly named one for himself, Edgar Allan Poe.
Needless to say, the origin of the name Edgar Allan Poe is written in the United States. The summon Edgar Allan Poe would give himself this name, mainly because he felt that he looked a little like that guy. Through the reflection on the fish cup and Zhou Shu's memory, he also saw his face. Although I was not very satisfied, I could only make do with it, and I didn't have the kind of beard that Edgar Allan Poe really had.
He was lucky enough to find the target of his mission, the vendor who introduced his name to Zhou Shu but was forgotten. The peddler's sardines didn't seem to be in good demand, and after seeing Zhou Shu's tricks, he had an urge that his fate would be changed. Now that the trickster is gone, his impulse is gone. He is optimistic, and today is not without results. First the foreigner bought a sardine for two silver coins, and invited himself to watch the trick, and then he dropped a good short knife.
Zhou Shu's knife was used by him to scare people, and it was randomly thrown into the stone road. After he left, the peddler also pulled out the knife by all means and took it for himself. In this world where the production of iron tools is not so large, a short knife with a good texture but a slightly curled tip is still worth a little money.
With his own harvest, he has the places he wants to go and the people he wants to see. Because he was just stimulated by the sudden 'opportunity', he now wants to see his crush.
Poe dutifully grabbed a cup of goldfish and walked around the crowded streets, from the low-lying areas of the city's commoners to the highlands of a garden-walled residential area. Unlike the civilian streets, the sun on this side of the rich area seems to be less intense, and it is gentler. Compared to the place that was just full of people and the smell of sweat, this place is like a forest with abundant oxygen.
It's easy to stalk in a civilian area full of busy people, but now that the streets are less crowded, Poe can only stare at his target from afar. Fortunately, the peddler did not intend to go to the top of the rich district, which seemed to be the height of the city. The higher the status of the person who lives there. The mistress and illegitimate daughter of a businessman is quite limited in what he can reach. Poe is also thankful for this.
As he followed him all the way, he fantasized about what it would be like to be an illegitimate girl who had charmed an ordinary little person. Because the story is a bit old-fashioned, there are many female images that have been interpreted and constantly popped up, which makes Poe's side not very easy to judge. However, considering the identity of the businessman's daughter, the other party should not be so beautiful.
The gap between the results and reality that a person relies on normal logic to think about is often too large to accept. The hawker stopped in front of a courtyard wall and looked through the yellow brick walls covered with vines to a three-story house behind it.
The yard is not very deep, and standing under the wall, you can easily see the balcony of the house, and a woman reading in the sunlight under an umbrella on the balcony.
Edgar Allan Poe squinted his eyes and glanced at the woman from afar, relying on his little visceral ability. I couldn't pull out my eyes suddenly. The girl's long black hair was coiled at the back of her head, leaking out of her slender neck. She would be spreading the book flat on her knees, her legs on one side, her eyes resting quietly on the book.
Poor Poe had thought that the kind of peddler would like the kind of lively and voluptuous woman, and now he had found out. I completely underestimated the taste of others.
This girl is actually not very beautiful, but in the eyes of outsiders, she is impeccable and dignified, just a common afternoon reading pastime, but it seems that she is being a model for someone.
Edgar Allan Poe, who had just come into the world, felt that he probably had the same aesthetic as the peddler, and soon he was excited to discover in his heart that it was possible for him to marry this young lady at the order of his master. As long as the vendor in front of you is not worth entrusting. and pestering this woman nonsense, he can justifiably carry out the master's orders, and help the young lady please this toad who is delusional about swan meat-
There is absolutely no deviation in the master-servant relationship of the Book of Summoning, which means absolute obedience. However, Zhou Shu had asked birds and wasps to do things many times, but he was tricked by the error news brought by his own summons, which was related to the problem of the minion's cognitive ability.
Nattie and the Knight of the Archer are in a strange city. I grabbed a cowardly-looking girl and gave her a little money, thinking that her family borrowed a house, a bathtub and hot water, and got together to clean her body.
For the two of them taking a bath in one place, they were quite calm. Both of them basically grew up being served by others. Needless to say, Nati's family decay was only a few years ago, specifically related to the war with the country of the forest, her childhood was quite abundant, at least the material life.
Nati noticed the terrible blood stain on the bowknight's lower abdomen, and touched it with her hand, and the outstretched hand was decisively slapped open by the archer, like a mother slapping her daughter who wanted to steal a biscuit.
"How can you be so rude?" the Knight Archer was also helpless with the guy in front of her, and there was no 'mental age' in her head in the thesaurus, which gave her one less way to evaluate Nati.
Natty and the Knight of the Archers soaked in the barrel together, so that as much of the scarce bath water as possible would be covered by their bodies. The Knight of the Archers was soaking in a proper manner, his eyes closed as if he were asleep. Nattie tried to soak her head in the water, but it was too shallow, and when she looked down, her head was pinned to the chest of the Knight Archer.
Unaware of it, she wanted to make her hair more moisturized, so she pressed hard against the bowknight's chest, flattening the tactile mass.
The endurance of the Knight of the Bow was considered to be one of the strongest among women, and in the end he was forced to grab Nati by the neck with his arm and hold her up.
"Don't use it, change ......" Nattie's eyes stared at the archer knight's arms that seemed to have scales, and reminded her friends with difficulty not to kill herself by mistake. The archer knight didn't hesitate, and sighed vigorously at the stupid guy in front of him, "You turn around, I'll help you wash your hair." β
"Really?" Nati had just resumed her normal breathing when she forgot about the danger of her life half a second ago.
The two women had been together for much longer than Midali had been fighting alone, and when the two returned to the Falcon camp, the image of the heroic female warrior reappeared in them.
All the way. Their hair was also dry. Nati's golden hair curls seem to be natural, and when her hair is tied up, curls appear.
On the contrary, the Bow Knight didn't put his hair in pigtails anymore, and tied them together so casually. Looks like the blonde Sister An.
Zhou Shu was also quite moved when he saw the two of them coming back, and he was completely convinced by the superb integrity of this world. If you think about it carefully, he doesn't seem to have seen people in this world talk a lot, and of course he himself is the same.
The mercenaries of the Eagle Killer were startled when they saw the two martial arts masters who were clean and heroic, and thought that someone had come to smash the field again.
"You two scared the mercenaries here. Zhou Shu, who had been eating walnuts at the very edge of the military formation, smiled kindly at the two of them.
Nati's big mouth also didn't have the slightest secrecy thinking, and said casually: "Now that His Excellency the Archer Knight has also been captured, I believe that another good friend of mine will come to me soon!"
"Ban Shi'er?" said the bow knight with a frown. The fate of her and Nati is actually the time when they had a picnic and read together in the shade of a tree in those days, and the kung fu when the Knight King bumped into him and killed the big fish that others liked. As for Natty's relationships in the cabin before she was sidelined. She is not clear. However, it is said that she has some friendship with Ban Shi'er, who is at the fourth level of the moon and has more combat power than Princess Fuhu.
"Yes, Ban Shi'er!" Nattie nodded happily, seemingly enjoying the name.
Zhou Shu noticed that when Nati called the archer knight, he had to put a 'lord' on the family after his name, which seemed to be very angry. But this self-cooked is sticking to her Excellency, and it doesn't look like it's raw at all. Now calling out a girl's name so affectionately from her mouth also makes Master Zhou very different.
The worst thing is that the word Ban Shi'er is not very embarrassing in the lingua franca, if this is a girl's name, it is probably equivalent to a mother naming her newborn daughter 'banshee' and 'evil ghost'.
"Why is she called this name?" After Zhou Shu saw these two assassins, he was not too worried about the four-star girl.
The Knight of the Archer shook his head. Regardless of Zhou Shu's questions, he went to the Falcon-Killing Barracks by himself, and replied coolly to the questioner with his back, 'I don't know'.
Nattie looks very positive in front of the week's book like an elementary school student waiting for the teacher to ask a question, and she happens to know the answer to the question, only a few similarities to a dog that is heated in the summer.
"Well, you answer. Zhou Shu asked.
"It's simple!" Nati explained, "the minorities of his western region. There is a custom that all children who do not have a name after the death of their parents are treated as monsters who killed their parents, and are called by terrible names!"
"So stupid?"
Nati nodded, "It's just a custom, actually. No one takes it seriously anymore. β
"You know so clearly, are you also from over there?" Zhou Shu asked casually, but he didn't expect the golden retriever scroll in front of him to really nod, "I was born in the west, but I am not a minority there, I am a citizen of the sky." β
Now Zhou Shu knows that there are only three nations in this world, the people of the sky, the people of the earth, and the species of birds. The last one is the race of the little girl Lilia, a national of the Bird Country. For this girl from the west, Zhou Shu suddenly thought of American Westerns, with a blonde beauty wearing a cowboy hat, a T-shirt and riding boots with spurs, a leather gloved hand holding two revolvers pointed at herself, and playfully saying the sultry lines of 'killyou'.
"That Ban Shi'er, what kind of great god does he believe in?" Zhou Shu asked casually.
"Sky Banshee!" said Nattie a new word she hadn't heard before.
Zhou Shu worried: "It sounds like a false god." β
"What's that?" said Nattie, who also heard a new word, and seemed excited.
"It's trouble. β
"Is it more troublesome than Ban Shi'er?"
"Are you sure it's not you?"
"I'm serious!" said Nattie in a rare cloud voice, "If she were to come to the rescue of me and the Bow Knight, I would go with her, for I was friends with her." β
"What about you and me?" Zhou Shu blinked, pretending to be very expectant.
"It's the enemy, what's there to ask. β
"But I'm so good to you and the Knight of the Archer, how can you be an enemy. β
Nati tilted her head, "Hmph, it's just a small favor." β
Zhou Shu also tilted his head when he learned from her, "Hmph." Uncooked. β
As if Nattie was deliberately angry with Zhou Shu, she shouted 'hungry' before Zhou Shu finished speaking, and applied for food to the commander in front of her like a soldier-
The Falcon Slayer team had just returned from Iron Key City, and they had bought a rather interesting ingredient called 'rice'. It also attracted the attention of Zhou Shu.
In this world, rice is similar to that of Spaniards, who always like to cook raw rice with a bunch of ingredients in a pot, and then eat it after cooking it.
Although it is a sandwich rice, today is a difficult hot day, but the taste is not bad. The rice in this world is also different from what Zhou Shu eats, and it seems to be very suitable for eating raw.
Nati has an amazing amount of food, and if Zhou Shu, who has recently started to eat, is a large row of motorcycles, Nati is a four-wheel drive car that can run with two No. 5 batteries. The archer on the side had a surprisingly large amount of food, and he sat alone and ate for more than an hour before wiping his mouth to indicate that he was full, and Zhou Shu couldn't remember how many times she got up and added food.
Midali grabbed Zhou Shu, who had eaten well, to her side with a vigilant face. The queen tugged at his collar and pressed his head down to talk to him.
"I said murderer, the fourth-level enemy is coming, have you figured out how to deal with it?!!?
"Don't worry. Zhou Shu looked very relaxed, "Nati's friends must be a bunch of teases." Maybe we'll be friends?"
"You mean, you also become Nati's friend, become a tease?"
"I'm talking about making friends with Ban Shi'er. β
Midali shuddered, "This man's name is terrible!"
"The fourth-series moon level is even more terrifying, and it is even stronger than Princess Fuhu......"
Zhou Shu was not worried, mainly because his Book of Summoning found no trace of a suspicious person. If the alarm sounds, he'll probably be more nervous than Midali.
Fire-eyed Midali has already gotten her hands on hair dye, ready to dye her red hair black as soon as the enemy appears. And then sneak away. As for the Eagle Killer, she had already told her thousands of elders to take the first emergency plan when dealing with a small number of masters, and dispersed and fled. When the time comes, everyone will obey their destiny, and they will scatter around like cockroaches, and no matter how powerful the master is, he will not have the ability to clone. It can't solve the problem of everyone in their own house. Those who are unfortunate enough to be caught and killed will just admit that they are unlucky.
Zhou Shu listened to Midali's unambitious emergency solution, lazily straightened his waist and stretched it, and shouted at his girlfriend Ula Mystery in the Book of Summoning: "I really want to eat fried rice!"
Fried rice is probably the only food that Urami does well, because it doesn't get mushy, at least not so easily. The Spanish-style ham rice he had just eaten also made him feel a little homesick.
Zhou Shu felt that Bai Yueguo was not as dangerous as expected. The people in this world are very peaceful, and although they talk about fighting and killing all day long, it seems that no one really does that. In this case, when he was away from the sick princess, it seemed that Ula Mystery could be released to breathe.
While he was thinking like this, he had almost seen Ula Mystery's helpless face, as if he was ready to preach to himself.
"I suddenly feel like you're a good fit for glasses...... Zhou Shu muttered this sentence in Chinese to the air in front of him, causing Midali on the side and Nati who had just slipped over to be curiousββ
"What god do you believe?"
Nati only reacted after hearing Zhou Shu speak Chinese, the man in front of him was a foreigner, and curiosity would rarely come out.
"Have atheists heard of it?" Zhou Shu also said against his heart.
"Don't have a god you believe in?" Nati understood the meaning from the literal translation, and then said sadly: "Then you are really pitiful, that is, there is no god to protect you?"
Zhou Shu believed that among all the people he had seen and known, he should be the only one who had seen the true God. He has experienced a lot of messy things, and when he has nothing to do, he always thinks back to the afternoon when he was at home looking for the library key at the beginning of the story.
At that time, the saint was obviously a god, Zhou Shu thought so.
He had heard magicians define God as basically the Creator's. The magicians believed that the Creator was still watching the world he had created, never leaving, and awaiting the day when his creation would be able to meet and talk to him in its own power.
For a while, magic continued to evolve on the basis of this belief. Zhou Shu didn't know if this statement was deliberately deceived by the people in the magic world, but he believed that it was not very difficult to create a zΓ o world, at least the creation of zΓ o creatures was almost like that.
His book of summoning can only turn one page at the moment, and if you upgrade the book, more abilities can appear. There is no doubt that there must be a greater force in this, and perhaps the creation of new species is not a problem.
Despite this, Zhou Shu never considered turning the second page of his book, he felt that he was now a child who had to struggle to read the first page, and there was no need to bother himself to read the content at the back of the book. What I have to do now is just to live a good life, meddle in my affairs, and be trusted and entrusted by the people I like. When you can get comfortable with these things, maybe you can turn to the second page of the book and let the new content on it worry about you, and there is no need to rush now.
