Chapter 149: The Prodigy

"Mages are not as gregarious as humans," Roach continued, "As far as I know, the concept of a nation is only created when the number of people reaches a certain size, so the mage world has always been a loose union, and it is dominated by this continent. ”

Guan Xinyue half-sat up on the carpet, hugged the other pillow, and turned her eyes away to try not to stare at Luo Qi. As long as his gaze lingers on Roach for a little longer, he will always look at it. His eyes, pure and gentle, hardly shy away from people. Anyone will be softened by the eyes of those deer.

Guan Xinyue listened to a lot of Mahjong's conversations with Du Zhengyi, and Mahjong sometimes attributed this situation to the attributes of Rocky's aggressive telepath. But as long as you are not blind, everyone knows the reason is not only that, mahjong always has some prejudice against telepaths. In fact, even if Roach just looks at people, it will be difficult for people to refuse. She could see that Du Zhengyi also understood this truth.

She tilted to the side sullenly, deciding to sell off the new knowledge she had just gained from the books of humanity.

"But as far as I know," she said, "civilization can only arise when a certain size of the population grows." ”

After a little thought, Luo Qi knew that Guan Xinyue was right, the development of the mage world was indeed full of paradoxes. Not wanting to bother with this question, which had no practical value, he asked, "What do you read from the biography?" ”

Guan Xinyue came to her senses, and Luo Qi had been reading a book and hadn't spoken to her for several hours. She rolled over and sat up, holding up a book in her hand, "I'm turning to an interesting one, Jiangzuo prodigy directory." ”

Roach burst out laughing, "It's a good thing my dad didn't buy this book when I was a child, otherwise my life would have been even more miserable." There are still people who publish such a book, and the book is someone else's child under a different name. ”

Guan Xinyue laughed, opened the book and read the first sentence, "Huaizuo is the famous capital, and Zhuxi is the best place." ”

Roach was stunned, "That's how the book begins?" ”

"It's not." Guan Xinyue said with a smile, "I just know how to recite such a sentence." ”

Roach gave her a thumbs up, "More and more like me!" ”

Guan Xinyue raised her eyes from the book, "Your dad won't buy this book to read." ”

"Why?" Rocky asked.

"As I said, these are the files of the deceased mage." Guan Xinyue said, "So why is there a list of Jiangzuo prodigies?" Why are you so stupid? It means that none of these children have grown up! What's the use of someone else's child who hasn't grown up? How could your dad buy such an obscure book. ”

"Oh." Roach felt like a bit of a goof. He switched between the human and mage worlds, and he gradually became less proficient than Guan Xinyue. "Are these kids awesome?"

"Does a three-year-old count if he can rub a fireball?" Guan Xinyue asked.

"That's for sure." "I was just going to eat my fingers at that time. ”

But as soon as the words came out, Roach realized that it was inertia that made him say this, and he immediately realized that when he was three years old, he was able to use telepathy to attack people, like a little ghost. His heart felt uncomfortable for a while, he moved back and leaned back in the chair, and glanced out the window, the eaves were dripping, and the rain in the south of the Yangtze River was falling again. The rain is finely knocking on the treetops and roof tiles, and this place is like a rain listening building. He remembered that he had been enclosed in his telepathic abilities when he was three years old.

Guan Xinyue didn't notice the change in his mood, she was quickly turning the pages, looking a little excited, "There are also children who can make the grass grow especially vigorously when they are five or six years old, and there is a child who made a June snow when he was nine years old. But these are nothing, I found a particularly interesting thing, this book mentions that in the land of Jiangzuo, there was a town in the late Ming and early Qing dynasties, called Twenty-four Bridge Town. ”

"That's not a small town." Roach sighed, but didn't pay much attention.

Guan Xinyue's interest remained undiminished, and her eyes became bright, as if Luo Qi would definitely be attracted. She sat taller and said mysteriously, "The main surname in this town is Du. ”

Roach turned his head and glared at her in surprise.

She said with some pride, "These Du surnames are almost related to each other, and they are about a big family living together in the town. And as far as I can see, this family has a very high status in the mage world, probably because this family has frequent samurai and has been recruited by the authorities. ”

Guan Xinyue was satisfied to see that Luo Qi's mouth was wide open, and now he didn't look handsome at all, and he was completely stupid. The so-called handsome is only ten seconds, and he is talking about the person Roach.

She decided to give Roach another heavyweight storm blow, "Do you know why their family has so many samurai? She paused and thought for a moment, "The so-called samurai should mean a battle mage, right?" ”

"It should be." Luo Qi hurriedly nodded in affirmation to the boss of the Examination Sect, "Can you continue?" ”

"From the characteristics of their children, it is surmised that their family must have the genes of teleportation mages in their bloodline." Guan Xinyue looked at Luo Qi and said.

"The end of the Ming Dynasty and the beginning of the Qing Dynasty?" Luo Qi muttered, "How come you haven't heard of such a powerful mage family now?" ”

"Isn't that normal? I always felt as if Brother Du didn't have a family, and he never mentioned his family. Aren't you mages like that, their numbers are shrinking, and their population is growing negatively? Guan Xinyue said, "Do you know where Brother Du is from? He spoke standard Mandarin and couldn't make out the way at all. ”

"He said he was here." Luo Qi whispered, "And his parents have long since died, he was adopted by Pei Shu and grew up in Qionglin." ”

Guan Xinyue said it herself, but when she heard Luo Qi affirm that Du Zhengyi had no family, she was still stunned and felt uncomfortable. "Then maybe we did help him find his family history."

"Can you show me the book?" Luo Qi asked, looking at Guan Xinyue with a pair of deer eyes.

Guan Xinyue didn't have a problem with him, and directly stuffed the book into his hand, "Will you show him this?" ”

"Well," said Roach, "I'll show him when I'm done." However, he may have known that it was more convenient for him to obtain information in Qionglin, and the Qionglin Library was very complete. ”

Guan Xinyue nodded, "Isn't there a lot of pressure on your mages to become extinct?" That's why the Lotus Burner was forced out. Roach, you're going to go super responsibly."

Guan Xinyue observed Luo Qi's face and hesitated.

Roach looked up from his book, "What? What am I going to do? Fight the Lotus Burner? ”

"Go," Guan continued, "breeding?" ”

Luo Qi thought seriously for a while, "The people in your country are also about to lose growth. ”

"Shut up!" Guan Xinyue jumped up.
