7. Apprenticeship
No plan or action can be without omissions, and the power of the other side cannot be strong enough to control all places.
After leaving the Giant Broken Port for more than two hundred kilometers along the road, Mu En saw a village not far from the roadside, so he put away the magic car and walked towards the village.
The size of the village is not large, only about 100 households, and I don't know if the people here will know some useful news.
The village was too small to have a special tavern for resting, and the only people Mu En could ask about were these villagers.
Fortunately, these villagers are very simple, and their status as an adventure mage has also gained their respect, and they will answer all his questions.
But in general, the news that the villagers knew was similar to what Mu En already knew, all of which were speculations about Timothy's whereabouts, and Mu En was basically sure that most of these news were the fog released by the other party.
And the biggest possibility is that these are not the real answers, and there is obviously something else hidden in Timothy's whereabouts and current situation.
This made Mu En a little disappointed, if all of them were like this, then he would have to try his luck elsewhere.
Mu En said goodbye to the farmer and went to the next one to try his luck, and the farmer suddenly remembered something: "Venerable mage, please stay, Hado, the son of Hada, a grocery store, went to the city for a while a month ago, and when he came back, it seemed that something great had happened in the city. ”
Hearing this news, Mu En was overjoyed, hoping that the big thing that Hado heard about was related to Timothy, and he hurriedly asked, "I don't know where Hado lives?"
The old farmer had a headache and said, "I live in the only grocery store in the village, but this kid is not necessarily at home." This kid calls himself a ranger every day, and he is idle all day long. He often gets into trouble, and even the nearby villages know his name. What he said was not usually believed by anyone. But when you asked, Mr. Master, I suddenly remembered this. ”
Look at the old farmer's headache. Mu En smiled secretly in his heart, it seemed that this kid was the thorn in the village.
He walked out of the old farmer's door, followed the old farmer's instructions just now and walked towards the grocery store at the head of the village, it was not yet the time to close, the door of the store was coming, but there were few people in the village, there was no business in the store, a middle-aged man was listlessly looking at an old broken kraft book behind the counter.
The sharp-eyed Mu En saw that it was a knight's miscellaneous book of knights fighting demons to save the princess. He smiled secretly in his heart, no wonder his son became a thorn, it seems that there is geneticism.
Mu En stepped forward and knocked on the counter, interrupting the other party's speculation and asking, "Are you old Hada?"
Old Hada was immersed in the fantasy of excitement, as if he was about to marry the princess, and this time he was interrupted, and without raising his head, he said a little impatiently: "I am! All have a price tag. ”
Mu Enyile was still very immersed, he smiled and said, "I don't buy anything, I want to ask if your son is at home?"
Old Hada chuckled when he heard this. His heart tightened, could it be that his own bastard boy was causing trouble outside again or owed money, and people were looking for trouble; he looked up and was about to speak. But when he saw the other party's robe, he suddenly became nervous. Stammered and asked, "Honor... Respect... Master Mage, do you have anything to do with my son? Is he ...... outside again? He's naughty, but he's not going to do anything bad, Master Mage......"
Mu En smiled lightly: "Don't be nervous, I just wanted to ask him something, I heard others say that he might know." ”
Old Hada breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this, and said indignantly: "It must be some old guy who chews the root of his tongue again, hmph, he always says that my son is not good and that is not good, like they have been honest farmers all their lives, isn't it good?
Mu En was not surprised, how could such a guy stay at home every day, he continued to ask, "Then do you know where the others go?"
Old Hada touched his unkempt head, frowned and thought for a while, clapped his hands and smiled: "Ha! I remember, Hado said in the morning that he would go to the Tiger Roaring Forest in the east of the village with Baleta of the village today to catch tigers, and he should still be there now, right?"
Mu En said in his heart, he didn't expect this kid to be quite brave, so he then asked Hu Xiaolin in detail how to go
The Tiger Roaring Forest is five kilometers east of the village, it is a small mountain forest, because the mountain forest is small, such a place is generally not able to breed monsters, there will only be some fierce beasts, but these beasts may not be anything to adventurers, but they are fierce killers to the civilians who have no power to bind the chicken, Hado dared to hunt tigers, and he didn't know whether he was brave or ignorant.
Mu En soon found the Tiger Roaring Forest and walked towards the mountain forest, and before he had gone far, he heard a faint tiger roar and exclamations in front of him, and it seemed that there was a fierce fight.
Mu Enjia rushed in the direction where the voice came, and the sound became more and more obvious, listening to this voice, these two guys were not very lucky, they came out to fight the tiger and met two tigers, if the two young men met a tiger, there was hope for the two of them to be clever, but it was very dangerous to meet two tigers.
At the scene, Hado and Barletta were fighting fiercely with two tigers with a homemade spear, but the two tigers were much more powerful than two people, Hado and Barletta could only rely on the tacit understanding that they usually played to support each other, and one accidentally Hado's shoulder was scratched by a sharp tiger claw A big wound, blood gushed out, and he was in a cold sweat, and howled miserably.
Seeing that he and Barletta gradually fell into the wind under the claws of the two tigers, and if they continued like this, they would both have to explain in this col today, Hado gritted his teeth and looked at Barletta beside him, and shouted loudly: "Balletta, it doesn't look like it's going to work!
Barletta spat and scolded: "Whoever runs is the turtle son, this is not the time to peek at other girls' baths." If you want to die, you will die here together. ”
Hearing this, Hado scolded: "Damn! Who wants to die with you! You still have a sick old lady and sister at home who need your care, what should they do if you die? You hurry up and let Lao Tzu go, and when you go back, don't forget to tell me Lao Tzu and let him stop waiting for me." ”
Barletta was stunned when she heard this, thinking of her mother and sister, she hesitated, but looked at Hado beside her and was a little uncertain for a while
When Mu En arrived, he happened to hear the conversation between the two, and he felt angry and funny, and the funny thing was that these two guys knew that their lives were in danger and still came to mess around, and the funny thing was that these two guys really read too many knight novels, and they were all dying, and they were still there to talk about brotherly righteousness.
The two of them only remembered that the battle was getting more and more tense, but fortunately Mu En arrived in time, and Hado's father really wanted to thank Mu En; Seeing that a tiger was about to scratch a wound on Hado's body, Mu En hurriedly shouted: "Get out of the way!"
As soon as the words were shouted, he waved his hands, now he is a high-level mage, and he is also a middle-level dragon bloodline, and he can already instantly lower his own two-level ordinary magic, and with a wave of his hands, two cold ice arrows flew towards the two tigers that pounced.
When Hado and Barletta heard this, they looked behind them and saw the ice arrows flying towards them, and they were so frightened that they hurriedly fell to the ground beside them, only to feel a cold air snatching from their ears.
"Right! Right!" Two ice arrows struck the two tigers, instantly freezing the two tigers into ice cubes, and even the blood in the wounds was frozen and fell to the ground;
"This" The two guys who fell to the ground watched the tiger that had just been alive and fighting with them, and instantly fell to the ground and shattered into ice chips, and they both became stunned at once, in such a small village, even adventurers rarely passed by, let alone a powerful mage like Mu En.
Mu En smiled: "What? I was very brave just now, but now I am stupid all of a sudden?"
Hado and Barletta touched their heads embarrassedly and said in unison, "Thank you, Master Mage, for saving your life." ”
Mu En looked at Hado and asked, "You are Hado?"
Barletta looked at Mun and whispered in Hado's ear: "I'm looking for you, it looks very powerful, you have to be careful." ”
Hado nodded, his eyes rolled, and he didn't know what bad idea he remembered, so he hurriedly agreed: "Yes, Master Mage, I am Hado." ”
Mu En nodded: "I came to you to ask you something." I heard you went to the city some time ago?"
Hearing this, Hado immediately laughed, nodded and smiled: "Yes, I have been! Master Mage, you can ask if you have anything, but I have a small request, I hope Master Master you can agree." ”
Mu En didn't like it in his heart, this kid wanted benefits at the beginning, it didn't seem to be a good thing, so he had to clean up this guy later, and let him know that he couldn't bargain in front of the strong.
Mu En's face turned cold all of a sudden, and he said lightly, "What request?" ”
Seeing Mu En's face turn cold, Hado's heart chuckled, and he became extremely nervous, and the careful thoughts in his heart were suddenly choked: "I, I"
Seeing that Mu En's face was getting colder and colder, Hado was anxious, knowing that if he didn't explain things clearly, he would definitely offend this powerful mage, so he hurriedly continued: "I want to ask this mage to accept me as an apprentice and teach me magic!"
As soon as these words came out, Barletta was stunned, Mu En was stunned, and then Yile shook his head and said: "You kid is quite good at seizing the opportunity, but to tell you the truth, you are sixteen or seventeen years old now, right?"
Hado nodded, and Mu En shook his head and continued: "Putting aside whether you have the talent to learn magic for the time being, you are too old now, even if you can learn magic, you are destined not to achieve much." ”
Hado's dream since he was a child was to have such an opportunity to be taken away by a strong man, and now when he heard Mu En's words, his heart suddenly became disappointed. (To be continued!)
