The gazebo at night is silent and serene, like an old man sitting on a chaise longue, silently observing the world in silence. Outside the gazebo, surrounded by a tumbling white mist that never seemed to tire of it, the tall floor-to-ceiling mirror stood quietly like a qualified servant.

Silent, silent.

"Boom!"

A figure rolled over, grunted, and rolled out of the mirror.

He didn't cry, just struggled to get up and looked around. In the silence of the night, the gazebo was empty, and there was no one but him.

The gentleman is not there either.

Zheng Qing clenched his fists, feeling that something was missing.

He lowered his head and thought carefully for a few seconds before realizing that the gilt silver pot that Zhu Si had given him earlier was missing. The silver kettle was because the gray cloth bag couldn't fit it, so he had to carry something in his hand.

Zheng Qing touched the gray cloth bag hanging from his waist.

The gray cloth bag that was bulging before has been deflated again.

He hurriedly rummaged through the contents of the bag.

All kinds of precious stones, pearls of the night, piles of gold, mythril, fine copper, delicate silverware, broken alchemy, all gone. Except for the red rope on his wrist tied with the leaves of the Misty Wood, the 'deposit' given to him by Zhu Si all disappeared into the bag.

And the snacks, books, cinnabar, rune paper and other materials he sent out in the mirror world were still quietly in the gray cloth bag box. It's just that the food has turned gray-white, and Zheng Qing takes a bite of beef jerky, feeling like he is chewing a piece of wood. The cinnabar and rune paper are intact, but they have lost their magical luster and have become waste.

Only the books, although they are a little shabby, have no defects in the knowledge and content in them.

The night breeze gently passed through the gazebo, sending a chill to the wizard.

The chill that is hard to feel in the summer.

Zheng Qing exhaled softly.

Standing up straight, he turned his head and glanced at the tall floor-to-ceiling mirror behind him.

This time, he finally saw the line engraved on the stone of the mirror frieze.

The light is like a piece of water, reflecting the people on both sides.

The moonlight fell like water on the mirror, and the figure in the mirror in women's clothes was scratching her head and trying to provoke the witch's anger. If he had met Zhu Si before, Zheng Qing might have found a stone and had a good reason with the goblin in the mirror, but right now, he just glanced at the figure in the glasses and looked away.

At the same time as he looked away, the silver surface of the floor-to-ceiling mirror suddenly rippled, and the figure in the mirror in women's clothes showed a little horror on her face, screaming and fleeing into the depths of the mirror.

After a while, Mr. Wu's tall figure appeared in the pavilion through the mirror.

He looked at the young student with a look of surprise.

"You came out on your own?"

Zheng Qing nodded, and hurriedly spoke: "Sir......"

Mr. Wu raised his hand, stopped the boy's question, and asked rhetorically, "What time is it?"

Zheng Qing pressed the impatience in his heart, took out the silver-shell pocket watch, opened the cover, and glanced at the time: "0:01 in the evening." ”

As soon as the words fell, the young public-funded student suddenly realized that it had only been a minute since he entered the world in the mirror. Considering that Mr. Zero Hour had only taken him into the world of the mirror, and that it had taken him a lot of time to check the gray cloth bag just now, then in fact he might have stayed in the world of the mirror for a shorter time.

"It's too fast. The gentleman shook his head, glanced back at the floor-to-ceiling mirror, then looked back at the young scholar, and repeated: "It's too fast." ”

"Do you think I'm coming out too fast?" Zheng Qing asked rhetorically.

"Yes. The gentleman's reply was not at all polite: "Far beyond your IQ." If you want to get out of the mirror world, it is not enough to rely on your little magical knowledge or a hint of forbidden spell breath that is not working. ”

"How long do you think I'll stay in there?"

"I don't know. Holding on to the Roman pillar of the floor-to-ceiling mirror in one hand, the gentleman replied calmly: "The time in the mirror world is chaotic and random. Maybe one second, one day in the mirror is the year outside, and the next moment, the year in the mirror is the second outside. It's hard to judge the unreal with reality. ”

The wizard cupped his forehead, and what Zhu Si said came to mind, and he strongly hoped that she had really only been in the mirror for a few months. Just as he raised his hand, the red thread on his wrist was revealed.

The gentleman raised his eyebrows, grabbed his wrist, and carefully studied the runes and the thin red thread circulating on the leaves.

Long.

"Looks like you've met some interesting friends in the mirror world. The gentleman put down the wizard's wrist and turned his head to look at the tall and silent floor mirror beside him, and his tone was full of nostalgia: "...... If you don't mind, can you tell me about it?"

Zheng Qing took a deep breath - the request of the gentleman was also what he wanted to do the most after appearing in the world in the camera.

"Her name is Zhu Si. ”

Starting with his name, the wizard describes in detail what happened to him in the mirror world.

......

......

The same is a pavilion.

There is also a Zheng Qing.

It's just that the sun is shining outside this pavilion, and the rolling heat wave is mixed with the noisy sound of insects, which makes people drowsy. This is the pavilion on the promenade around the lake on the shore of Linzhong Lake, it is the weekend, there are no students who come and go to class, even the fish in the lake have also stopped a lot, and they are all hiding in the dirty stone cave at the bottom of the lake to nap.

The noon training of the Hunting Team came to an end, and the hunters sat on the benches in the pavilion in twos and threes, discussing the various situations they had just encountered during the training.

"It's too hot, it's too hot. ”

The fat man wiped his sweat-stained head, pulled up the collar of his robe, bent his wrists, and tried to send a little insignificant wind into his clothes.

But for this little wind, he needs to pay more sweat. It's hard to tell if this action is a good deal.

The fat man turned his neck with difficulty, looked left and right, and finally found the captain of the hunting team.

"You sleep soundly. He muttered, leaned over to Zheng Qing's side, and a pair of pig hands groped around the young public-funded student.

"What are you doing?" Zhang Jixin shouted.

"Find a summer charm!" replied the fat man in a rough voice, "and the one that provides cooling...... What's that?"

"Cool charms. Xiao Xiao replied.

"Yes, Cool Charm. The fat man flipped through for a long time, and finally found a pile of talisman paper that he had prepared in Zheng Qing's arms, grabbed it out happily, and shook it to his partners: "Finally, you can cool down!"

There was a roar of cheers in the gazebo.

In the midst of this cheer, Xiao Xiao leaned over to Zheng Qing's side and looked curiously at the sleeping wizard.

"What are you looking at?" Zhang Jixin sighed and asked.

"How could he sleep so dead. Xiao Xiao pinched Zheng Qing's ears, but the young public-funded student ignored it and continued to fall asleep, even squirting a bubble out of his nose.

"Maybe he was too tired yesterday and just went to bed with a sleeping charm?" the acting captain guessed, and pulled Xiao Xiao: "Don't disturb people's sleep!"

"Perhaps. Xiao Xiao lifted his glasses and looked at the young public scholarship student suspiciously, his gaze slowly slid down from his face, and finally landed on Zheng Qing's wrist.

There was a thin red line tied to it, and the line was dotted with a leaf of the tree. The leaves seemed to be enchanted, and from time to time there were flashes of golden runes.

Xiao Xiao remembered that when he went out in the morning, Zheng Qing's wrists were still clean, and there was no red rope.

Not even that leaf.
