Chapter 242: A Foreign Land, a Different Man, a Strange Thing
The giant eagle fell from the sky, put down the three Wang Yu on their backs, and then chirped, flapped its wings and flew back towards the tree of life.
"Go and ask anyone, and you should be able to find a place to live according to Mr. Gwen."
Wang Yu glanced at the unfamiliar elven city, which was built between the ground and the trees, and made him clearly realize that they were in the realm outside the human kingdom at the moment.
The place where the giant eagle Angora lowered them was a platform built on a giant tree, which seemed to be used to rest for these large creatures, and there was a corridor directly connecting to the elven colony outside, and the elves could be seen coming and going.
"Let's go."
Avia took Noelle's hand and followed Wang Yu towards the elven dwelling place in the distance.
The Elven Capital doesn't feel so special to Wang Yu, except for the three-dimensional building on the trees, the overall distribution of buildings and the like is actually similar to that in Alestale.
Buildings such as shops are clustered in streets made up of platforms built on top of giant trees, while houses used for living are scattered elsewhere.
Apothecary, blacksmith's workshop, grocery store, bookstore...... At a glance, there are all kinds of shops in the human kingdom that are found in Leahim.
Some of the differences are that the elves walking on the streets are quiet and peaceful, without the noise and chaos like humans, and their long lifespan makes most of the elves have a character that is not alarmed.
Wang Yu and the three of them walked into this elven capital without attracting much attention, and occasionally a few cloaked elven rangers could be seen quickly jumping between the buildings, and they would pay attention to the three people who had no elven characteristics for a while.
Wang Yu estimated that they were similar to the city guards, and Wang Yu, as outsiders, was the object that the patrolmen should pay attention to in the recent period.
"It's not impossible to ask a passer-by, but I feel like it's better to find a better place to ask."
Wang Yu's attention was attracted by a building in the distance, a place that adventurers are all familiar with, a tavern, but he didn't expect that there would be such a slightly noisy and chaotic place in the elf clan, Wang Yu said, and walked over there.
Pushing open the door and stepping inside, the atmosphere inside is as common as that of a tavern, and there is no reason to be cheerful, but compared to Alestale's tavern, although there is a laughing sound, it is also much softer and quieter, but the cheerful melodious sound of the piano surrounds the space.
"Huh...... What's that, orcs, and orcs like that? ”
As soon as Wang Yu entered the door, he saw something he had never seen before, on the bar where the bartender was, there was a black cat lying on it, and next to it was its wine glass, which was full of clear and mellow wine.
The cat grabbed the handle of the glass with its unusually powerful tail, raised it, and gently collided with the wine glass in the hand of the elf in the waiter's waistcoat, then pulled the glass in front of him, and drank the wine in the glass.
God knows how this black cat, with its pure coat, drank all the liquor that was larger than his body in one gulp.
"Welcome, do you have anything you need?"
The bartender noticed Wang Yu who pushed the door in, shook the utensils used to mix wine in his hand and asked with a smile.
"Oh, that's right, I'd like to ask a well-informed gentleman something, and I'll give you a little trouble if I can."
Wang Yu took his attention away from the very peculiar black cat, communicated with the bartender, took out the plump acorn that Gewen handed him, and motioned for the bartender to show it.
"Oh, a token from the Elders? The guest must be a foreigner. ”
The bartender's tone was a little surprised after seeing the acorn in Wang Yu's hand, and then he said his guess.
"Yes, we want to find a place to stay, and Elder Gwen asked us to take this and ask."
Wang Yu confirmed and said his intention.
"Haha, of course there is no problem, since Elder Gwen has given you this token, then it means that you are the distinguished guests of our elven clan, welcome to Leahim, I hope you like this place."
The bartender smiled warmly and greeted Avia and Noelle, who had followed Wang Yu in, and at the same time, he turned around and rummaged through the bar in the back, taking out a map drawn on the smooth bark of a tree.
"This map is for you, here, it is a house for you guests, I will mark it for you, and then go directly to the map, and then show your tokens to the guards there."
The bartender took the pen, drew a circle in one of the locations of the map, and handed the map to Wang Yu.
"Do you want to consider having a few drinks, as the distinguished guests of the elf clan, these drinks will be my welcome."
The bartender is definitely the kind of active and enthusiastic among the elves, without waiting for Wang Yu to thank him, he began to speak, and after handing over the map to Wang Yu, he quickly used the bartending tools in his hand, quickly listed three glasses of wine, and pushed them in front of Wang Yu and the three of them.
"And you're lucky that Mr. Aslan, who lives in our tavern, is the best bard we have here, and the stories he tells and the music he plays are absolutely first-class."
Wang Yu looked at the wine sent by the bartender, the alcohol content was very low, the smell was sweet, it was a cocktail similar to fruit juice, and it was completely acceptable.
He didn't refuse, took it and handed it to Avia and Noelle respectively, and listened to the chatty bartender talking.
Listening to the bartender's mention of the bard named Aslan, Wang Yu followed his gaze and saw a long-haired man holding a xylophone sitting in the center of the tavern, plucking the strings with his slender fingers, filling the tavern with the sound of flowing water.
The sound of the piano is melodious and tactful, not only with a beautiful melody, but also with indescribable emotions in it, each note, gently striking on the nodes of the listener's heart, so that the audience's feelings also fluctuate with the rhythm of the music.
The powerful performance calmed down the people around him who were still having a conversation and listened to the bard's music.
"It's really good, it's probably the best bard I've ever seen."
Wang Yu nodded approvingly, and whispered to the bartender, Wang Yu, who has been trained in earth music, only stops at the level that the music of this world is still quite good most of the time, and the performance of the bard in front of him really makes Wang Yu feel refreshed.
"Of course, this is Mr. Aslan, and you'll know more about him later."
The bartender lowered his voice and talked to Wang Yu with a smile.
"Eh, that's what I wanted to ask from just now...... Huh?!"
Wang Yu's gaze shifted from the bard, who was immersed in the music, because it was too eye-catching.
The cat that had been drinking at the bar just now jumped down after Wang Yu and the bartender had chatted, and at this moment it was leaning back on a chair in the bar like himself, as if he was lazily enjoying the music played by Aslan.
Wang Yu's curiosity made him want to ask the bartender about the cat's situation if he could, Wang Yu didn't feel the druid's breath from the other party's body, and there was no magic fluctuation, indicating that the cat should not have been transformed like that, so what the other party was was was very wonderful.
As a result, just as Wang Yu opened his mouth to ask, the black cat suddenly stretched out its paws, opened a spatial crack beside him, fished it out of it, and fished out a pure white cat smaller than it from the spatial crack.
Similar to a person, he held a white cat, and the two cats, one black and one white, leaned together in a chair and enjoyed Kiaslan's music.
This really surprised Wang Yu, a cat with such high intelligence was enough to make him curious, and what this cat did at this moment directly made the emotion of surprise appear in Wang Yu's heart.
"Oh, it? It's called Ann, and I'm kind of a regular customer here, and I was shocked when I first saw a cat that wasn't a druid or shaped, but it was good to get used to it. ”
"Ouch, that white cat is its companion, it's amazing, right, hahaha, every time a new guest sees it, it's a performance, after all, bringing your partner in the carry-on space, it's only on a cat's body that it doesn't look so exaggerated."
The bartender seemed to understand Wang Yu's curiosity and surprise, and smiled as he made an introduction to each new guest when he saw the cat named Ann.
"It's outrageous enough for a cat to know space spells, but it's not that important to bring your girlfriend in space, it's ......"
Wang Yu listened to the bartender's explanation and complained silently in his heart.
"I don't know what race it is, but it's a true master of space."
"There used to be a rare, tasteless elf who tried to catch Ann after getting drunk, but a large number of spatial cracks appeared on his head, and a large number of long swords and other weapons were shot out of it, grazing his body and flying over, and scaring that guy's wine on the spot."
"God knows where An'en got so many weapons and can control them perfectly, in short, don't look at it as a cat, the strength is definitely not to be underestimated."
The bartender shook his head while introducing the deeds of the black cat to Wang Yu, and his expression told Wang Yu that even the bartender, who was very familiar with the black cat, thought that this cat was really incredible.
"Shoot a lot of weapons out of the cracks in space...... Isn't this the King's Treasury, the cat who knows the King's Treasury, and this world does give people some surprises sometimes. ”
Wang Yu thought about the scene where the black cat shot a large number of weapons with spatial cracks, and the sense of sight came out on the spot, even if he had experienced many shocking scenes, he had to say something outrageous.
As he spoke to the bartender, the bard's piano gradually stopped, and the guests who listened to Aslan's performance let out a sigh of unfinished thinking, but no one asked Aslan, who had stood up, to play another song for them.
Wang Yu, who was facing away from each other, noticed that the footsteps were gradually approaching this way, and turned his head to look, only to find that the bard named Yaslan was walking towards him.
The long purple hair is curled up and tied behind the head, the same purple eyes are deep and pure, giving people a mysterious feeling, the body is well-proportioned and slender, soft and feminine at the same time, but it does not lose the masculinity of a man, of course, the most attractive is the other party's face.
Beautiful, handsome, Wang Yu feels that this is probably the most beautiful existence he has seen in this other world after he came to this other world, the word "beauty" can be described, the neutral face makes it almost difficult to distinguish the other man's and women, only from some details, can confirm that this "beauty" is indeed a male bard.
If Wang Yu was asked to give a score to the other party's appearance, Wang Yu would give ninety-five points, which was almost comparable to the body of the gods.
In other words, the two are inherently comparable, except that one is full of divine perfection, while Aslan's is a natural and pleasing beauty to the eye.
But it's still the same sentence, Wang Yu doesn't look at people, no matter how good he looks, it's almost the same in his place, the other party is from a few of them, Wang Yu is very sure, and he doesn't know what the other party is looking for him.
"Three, can you take the liberty of bothering you?"
A soft and nice neutral voice came out of Yaslan's mouth, and it was really difficult to tell whether it was a male or female voice, he walked up to Wang Yu and the three of them, and asked politely.
"It's Mr. Aslan, your performance has impressed us, is there anything you want us to do?"
didn't see any malicious intent on the other side, and Wang Yu responded politely.
"I'm a bard, wandering around the continent, collecting unique stories and witnessing things happening, and I have a special ability to see stories that have happened to different people.
"I can't know the details, but I can find out something from the traces left by these stories, and I can get inspiration from them, and music is the source of strength for me."
"I feel something very special from you, this young lady has not many stories, but they are all very exciting, and this lovely girl has a long and long record."
Aslan explained, telling the trio about his specialness and why he was bothered, and to Avia and Noelle, Aslan told them what he had seen in them.
"And this gentleman, I don't feel anything in you, it's something I've never seen before, and if I could, I'd like to share some of the music you know, and I want to get some inspiration from that."
Finally, Yaslan turned to Wang Yu and calmly told the "story" he had seen in Wang Yu.
Wang Yu listened to the other party's story, and didn't feel that the other party was talking nonsense, the temperament and appearance that Yaslan possessed were basically impossible to be an ordinary existence.
"It's another one, the power that transcends the void, the magic power, the fighting energy system, like the astrologer before, these powers that don't come from nowhere are really curious and interesting."
Wang Yu silently sighed in his heart the peculiarity of the other party's ability, and then thought about the other party's proposal, it seems that there is nothing to refuse, just share something about music, it's very simple.
"I don't have any music level myself, but I've listened to some music that I think is good, is that okay?"
Wang Yu spread his hands and said that his own music level can only be described as a tragedy, but in terms of music, there are so many music on the earth, he likes a lot, and it is no problem to choose one for this Mr. Yaslan, who has high musical attainments.
"Of course, no problem, the music you know, its birth, its creation, and its author's own experience are all unique stories for me, and the music you share will definitely be great stories, and through your sharing, I may be able to find some stories that will help you."
Aslan said happily, and in his purple eyes, there was the kind of seriousness that only a very pure person can have.
"Okay, then I'll whistle a song I know."
Wang Yu can whistle, and his level is quite good, when he was on Earth, he didn't sing very well, but he whistled when he had nothing to do, and he could actually blow the song well.
And now with the knight's ability to control his muscles, he whistles, and can already be played on an instrument.
"Canon", this is a song selected by Wang Yu, it is not a very complicated song, and it is not long, Wang Yu just thinks it is very good, pleasant and leisurely, listening to it makes people feel very relaxed, after all, he is a rough person, he will not care about the connotation of the song and the like, it is good, it is completely enough for him.
The simple tune, the melodious melody reverberated in the tavern when Wang Yu played the song "Canon", and thanks to the strength of his knights, the whistle was loud enough and there was no out-of-tune, so that everyone in the tavern could hear this beautiful tune.
Wang Yu can be sure that this piece is definitely not comparable to Yaslan in his place, Yaslan's level in music is too high, his playing skills have surpassed the music itself, and as he said, he has a certain ability, he can pluck the heartstrings with music, and get a unique power to spread the story.
And Wang Yu, at most, he can reproduce the original tune without going out of tune, and he doesn't have any feelings and skills.
As soon as the song "Canon" was played, Aslan's applause rang out, and the guests in the tavern who liked the song also clapped one after another.
"It's a really good song, it's not that complicated, but this is probably the simplest meaning of the music itself, it's good, thank you for sharing."
Aslan's fingers plucked the strings, and the melody of "Canon" flowed out of the piano he was holding, and compared to Wang Yu's mechanical playing, he could hear a lot more charm, and he read something inside through this piece, which was really good.
Yaslan sincerely expressed his gratitude to Wang Yu for sharing, and then he asked Wang Yu a question.
"Is there anything you would like to know or seek in Leahim, maybe the stories I know can help you."
Wang Yu thought about it for a while, Leahim was indeed completely unfamiliar to him, and there were a lot of things he wanted to do here, maybe now was a good time to find out what to do next?
"If there is a scholar in pharmacy who is very accomplished, I think, I need a teacher."
Wang Yu didn't ask any very unrealistic questions without interest, he really asked something he wanted to know.
The cherished herbs in the Forest of Origin made him feel that Leahim would be a pretty good place for a pharmacist, and his pharmacy had helped him a lot, and he hoped to get further opportunities here.
"A teacher who is good at pharmacy? I don't think it's too difficult for me. ”
Yaslan smiled, and said in a relaxed tone that the question raised by Wang Yu was not difficult.
