Chapter Twenty-Nine: Does the Young Master Read?
"The sea of stars or something, you better leave it to the other gods, boy, one last time, don't talk nonsense. If you want to live, listen to me. Do you want to come again, self-popping? The Eye of Wisdom said gloomily.
"Then look at Ha ......" Alvin counted with his fingers: "For food on the road, you need money, clothes, if you bring a few more clothes, you don't need money, but you need money to live in a hotel on the road, and you need money to find a place to settle down in the future, not to mention that I have to marry a wife, have children, and buy real estate, so ......" Alvin said seriously: "We need a lot of money." ”
"But here's the problem. First of all, if I asked Mrs. Hansen, she would ask, but I didn't know how to explain it to her. Do you want to tell her that Lao Tzu is going to run away and needs a lot of money on the way, can you give it to me, Mom? ”
"Secondly, to be honest with you, I don't know anything about the outside world, and after I went out, my eyes were dark, but fortunately I had you! Although you have been sealed for thousands of years, you still know a lot about secular life, and you probably don't know anything about the current dynasty that rules the continent, right? ”
"......" is a rare refutation of Alvin's sarcasm, the Eye of Wisdom, and its silent attitude shows its acquiescence.
"In the end, how are we going to escape? I've heard that this place is surrounded by people, and it's still nominally here to protect me!"
“……”
"Boss, isn't it a bit immoral to pretend to be dumb at this time!" Alvin took advantage of the victory and pursued.
The Eye of Wisdom was silent.
Alvin didn't care. He was determined to blame all the problems on the Eye of Wisdom, after all, if he followed Merlin to the Han Pavilion, he would at least be able to live a carefree life, and follow the Eye of Wisdom to wander the world...... He could only say "hehe".
“…… In fact, understanding the world is the best thing to do. ”
The Eye of Wisdom spoke after a long silence.
"I saw just now that room was full of books. I think we can re-understand the world through those books. After all, I still have a certain understanding of the world. By the way, you should know those words, right? ”
"......" this time Alvin was dumbfounded.
"This ...... Well, probably. ”
"Huh?" The Eye of Wisdom asked, "Interesting, boy, I see that you seem to have a lot of secrets in you." ”
"Where, where, no, no. I'm very simple. You see, today's weather ...... Ha ha. Alvin looked at him.
Fortunately, the Eye of Wisdom did not pursue further.
"So, let's do the first thing first, let's get to know the world first."
"Understood!" Alvin nodded.
Next.
"Harpy! Herbie! ”
The screams made all the guards frown.
Young Master Alvin was greeting his little henchman.
Harpy was now more frightened when he heard Young Master Alvin's call than when he heard the roar of the Great Demon King.
He was flirting with the maid Lili, and when he heard the call, he trotted all the way, ignoring the etiquette.
He ran into the young master's room sweating profusely and looked at the young master timidly.
The young master is getting more and more unable to see clearly. It was as if there was a layer of fog hanging over him, but if you looked closely, there was nothing. It's a mystery.
"Young Master, what do you command?"
Next, the request of the eldest young master of the Hansen family made his little follower almost not fall through the glasses, if it were not for the fact that Harpy did not have glasses. He had to open his mouth wide enough to fit a watermelon.
"Go, bring all the books in the house, whatever they are, whatever they are. I mean, all, all! ”
Harpy was stunned for three seconds, then nodded yes in a panic, turned around and ran, more terrifying than seeing a ghost.
"Master Hansen wants to read!?"
The breaking news spread like a plague among the servants of the Hansen family.
Everyone's reaction was: "Is the end of the world?" Master Hansen actually wants to read a book? ”
"Harpy, don't be in a hurry to take it first, tell me first, does Master Hansen know how to read?" An older servant, but also a teenager, stepped in to stop Harpy.
The latter was scavenging the room like a whirlwind of clouds.
"I guess I know?" Harpy wasn't sure either.
"Master Hansen did study in the monastery. But...... You probably know that, right? ”
"What's the matter?" The older servant asked.
Harpy rolled his eyes: "Knowingly asking, it's not that you don't know, you have to let me say it." Young Master Hansen has not passed the apprenticeship trial of the Purple Ivy Academy for three years, and the reason is not because his divine attainments are not up to the mark, he! I'm afraid I can only understand those "Holy Maiden's Treasures" and "Palace Secrets", right? "The content of these two books is popular with everyone, and it can make the room man master all the secrets of men and women overnight and turn into a big scumbag. In particular, the content is difficult to understand because it is full of pictures.
The two looked at each other and let out a knowing lewd laugh.
"Young Master Hansen is probably really changing his sex now, and he actually wants to read a book, I think, this is really about to end the world."
Harpy has fewer scruples to speak, because his status is slightly higher than others because of Young Master Hansen. He follows the young master every day, so he naturally knows more than others. Young Master Hansen didn't even have a hard time reading the dictionary, "Let Young Master Ben read the book and wait until the end of the world!" "This is the original words of Young Master Hansen, how many people in the family have heard of it, it is not a big secret.
"However, for more than a year, I heard that Young Master Hansen has an uncertain temperament, chasing dogs for a while, and chasing chickens for a while, but there is no accurate number. Maybe I'm going to have to bury my head in hard work this time. The old servant said.
"Hmph, with the status and wealth of the Hansen family, what's the use of studying, to be a court scholar?" Harpy said dismissively.
The two looked at each other and laughed because Harpy was telling the truth.
"But you really can't take that."
Harpy was about to leave, but was stopped by the older servant.
"Why, don't you know? If I take less, Master Hansen will kill me. He said it all, as long as it was with words. ”
The older servant stared at the harpy and said solemnly, "These really can't be done. ”
"Why?"
"For these are the books of the carriage and horse dealers...... I don't know if Master Hansen can read or write, but I know that he must not be able to count. ”
"Huh? Hahaha"
The two burst into laughter again.
Of course, Master Hansen will not be illiterate, but the account books of the carriage and horse shop are written in encrypted numbers, which is a well-known secret in the industry, because every industry has its own code language, that is, black words.
"I'm also too busy and dizzy, how did I run to the tent." Harpy slapped his head and blamed himself repeatedly, and went to work again.
When Harpy left, the smile in the old servant's eyes faded.
After dark, a letter was delivered to a nondescript bar in the city of Sark.
"Hansen Alvin is collecting books for unknown reasons."
A one-eyed man, burning the letter on a candle flame, with a solemn face.
"This Young Master Hansen is really elusive!"
"There's no way, you have to mobilize people and kill him again!"
The one-eyed man's only eye showed a resolute look.
