my age of magic

Chapter 1549 99. Sad Liya

Sometimes you can never predict where the hatred will come from, maybe walking on the street, a flower pot will suddenly fall from the top of your head, maybe the manhole cover under your feet will be trampled over, and what I met was an angry Susan Auntie, the neighbor aunt who often likes to send Luka baked oatmeal...

The magic caravan drove into the alley of the third block, sat on the side of the road, squinted and basked in the sun He spit out a mouthful of foam on the slate floor, and shouted to me loudly, "Ji Jia! Where did you get that silly cow?"

Unexpectedly, she still remembered Ruka the tauren. She was a straightforward woman from the imperial capital. She married from the northern border to the imperial capital when she was young, and she still maintains the fierceness of the northern border women. She is also one of the three constructed knights. Her sons are all participating in the war of planes, so she has the full confidence to say this to a noble magician.

Of course, in her impression, I was just a student of the Royal Academy of Magic.

I poked my head out of the car and explained to my neighbor, Aunt Susan, who has always taken care of the tauren Luka, with a smile: "He went to the plane of Hierro to participate in the plane war this summer. Now, he There are some other tasks, and I can't return to the imperial capital for the time being."

Aunt Susan has been unswervingly supporting the war of planes. I think she should send a blessing to Luka when she hears me say this.

However, I never expected that Aunt Susan stood up from the bench suddenly, pointed at me with an angry face and said, "What, you sent him to the battlefield of the plane so cruelly?"

"..."

I was a little confused by the angry look on Aunt Susan's face.

I don't understand where her anger comes from, I really want to ask her: Didn't you send all three of your sons to the battlefield of the plane?
The leaves of Wutong Mountain in the alley fell all over the ground, leaving only bare branches. Those withered and yellow leaves hadn’t been cleaned up yet, and the whole alley looked a bit depressed. The tauren Luka used to rush to do this kind of thing. Maybe Aunt Suzanne is complaining that Luca is gone, no one is clearing the fallen leaves on the street, no one is pruning the neighbor's low wall, no one is going to take a hammer to repair the broken fence on a sunny afternoon wall.

Aunt Susan became angrier as she spoke. She had full breasts and a waist as thick as a bucket. She was wearing a home sarong with a white apron around her waist. She pointed at me and said meanly: "I see through you. Magic nobles who oppress honest people!"

"..."

Sitting in the compartment of the magic caravan, with my face pressed against the open glass window, I stared at this sturdy imperial woman speechlessly, not knowing what to say.

My magic caravan passed in front of her, and I breathed a sigh of relief, saying that being scolded by her is actually nothing, nothing...

Katerina, who was sitting across from me, heard the swearing at me, and leaned over to look out the window, and turned her head to look at me with a smile. She would not stab Susan with a dagger just because Aunt Susan scolded me. Aunt Shan stabbed me, but she thought I was very funny in this way.

After I left Ayr City, I was seldom abused like that, and Aunt Susan's aggressive manner reminded me of Fanny.

Fanny likes to stand in the yard and scold Tracy who doesn't come home on time, and likes to scold me who always sneaks into the next yard to chat with Su. Fanny never thinks that I am chatting with Su. If she thought that she was going to the next yard to steal the lemons from that tree, she would also scold Train who would only come home after being drunk.Since Nancy's arrival, her temper has actually changed a lot, but it's a pity that Leant still has a countess lover.

The widow of Earl Zimmermann—Lady Jenny.

I scratched my head in distress, and my thoughts returned to reality, only to find that Aunt Susan didn't stop.

Aunt Susan chased after the carriage with her thick elephant legs, and asked me loudly: "The woman who lives in this apartment is your new lover? She actually has two children!"

I feel a bit of a headache, I am worried that being heard by Kong Zhen will increase the burden in her heart.

The magic caravan parked in front of the fence of the cottage, and Katerina pushed the door open.

Aunt Susan, who was running wild, stepped on the hanging ladder of the carriage and blocked the door.

Her voice could almost run through the entire alley, and she asked me: "You like married women? It must be so, yes! You seem to prefer those who are older than you? The former Mrs. Alia is one, Now it's another one, but your standards seem to be getting lower and lower."

If I really want to reason with her, her big mouth like a broken gong can attract people from the whole street.

I can't rush up and slap her twice because of this matter. When I lived here, I received so much care from her, and I am still somewhat grateful to her. Of course, I am only angry now, and I really want to Cast 'Silence' on her - if I can.

Apart from her stinky mouth, she is definitely a warm-hearted and good neighbor, so she has many supporters on this street, and I think she will suffer no matter what, so I decided to get out of the carriage immediately and walk in Yard, I hope she can stop in moderation.

She didn't follow me into the fence, but put her hands on the edge of the fence, tried to stick her head into the wall, and chased me: "As a thin young magician, I advise you Men and women must know how to be restrained in matters like this, otherwise you will suffer in the future, hey, I haven't finished talking..."

I walked quickly into the yard, quickly went around from the front to the back yard, and Aunt Susan's voice gradually disappeared in my ears.

Sitting on the bench under the pergola, let out a soft breath.

This pergola was originally built for Luka, but now there are only empty wooden shelves left. Katerina sat quietly opposite me, looked at me with a smile on her face and said, "I thought you couldn't help it..."

I rested my head on the railing, looked back at the blue sky, let out a sigh of relief in my chest and said, "What can I do? Mouth a little bit more mean... well, her mouth just stinks!"

Next door to the backyard lived an old nobleman. He was a traditional gentleman. He seldom went out, but even at home he would wear formal attire. He rarely took the initiative to chat with people, but facing everyone Neighbors will appear very polite, and at the same time moderately control the distance between neither far nor near.

Through the fence, he stood in the yard of his house, and said to me with a gentle face: "Please don't pay attention to her words, these days she is sitting there, catching whoever is scolding, and making the night watchman She didn’t dare to come to this alley to light the street lamps, and the cleaners didn’t dare to sweep the fallen leaves on the street. This summer, I heard that her three sons had successively sent bad news on the battlefield of the plane. In the empire, the people her sons followed Those lords have sent generous pensions one after another, and she can't spend the money in two lifetimes, but what can I do, people are gone... I don't know when the damn plane war will stop."

"..."

I don't know why, when I heard the old aristocrat talk about this, my heart felt like a stone was blocked.

My heart is actually not that soft. I saw a lot of dead people on the battlefield. I think I must be sick...

……

At this time, Angelo's voice was suddenly heard: "Jijia, are you okay!"

Only then did I remember that I had rushed here to visit Kongzhen, and when I walked into someone’s yard, I completely forgot about it. I followed the sound and saw that Angelo was squatting on the attic, Holding a wooden box in his hand, he stared at me curiously. Seeing me looking at him, he pouted in the direction of Aunt Susan, and asked me in a low voice, "Do you want me to scold you back, scolding people?" What, I am also very good!"

After speaking, he made a gesture of reassurance.

I shook my head and said, "Angelo, what are you doing?"

"I'm building a pigeon coop. I want to raise a flock of pigeons. The sky in the imperial capital is as blue as the sky in Haiyinsi, but it's a bit too quiet." Angelo stood on the roof and looked up at the floating tower in the sky. Wang Cheng said to me.

I also looked up at the blue sky above my head. In the imperial capital in autumn, the sky was as blue as a sapphire.

I said to Angelo: "This is not a good idea. There is an air-forbidden circle here in the imperial capital. Unless you keep the pigeons in the cage, once they fly into the sky, they will be hit by lightning." Split into roasted pigeons..."

Holding the wooden box in his hand, Angelo jumped off the roof with a 'whoosh' and asked me with his mouth slightly open, "Really?"

"It's absolutely true." I gave him an affirmative answer, and then asked, "By the way, where is Liya?"

Angelo, the older boy, rubbed his nose and told me: "She is taking care of the dog. The dog is sick and has been refusing to eat for the past few days. I think it may be dying."

After he finished speaking, he pointed to a corner of the yard. I didn’t know when a small pool was dug in the yard, and it was filled with clean water. A small wooden house was built next to the pool. The little girl Liya Sitting in front of the cabin with knees hugged, a fur seal was lying wet inside the cabin, with only its head exposed. Looking at it with its eyes closed, it seemed a little short of breath and very weak.

Angelo stood beside me and said, "Sorama is a little worried about Liya, so she left me at home to take care of her."

I walked over gently, sat on the grass next to Liya, didn't speak, just sat there quietly.

The fur seal seemed to sense that someone was approaching, and opened its eyes vigilantly. After glancing at me, the beard around its mouth twitched twice, and it was unable to close its eyes again.

"It's dying." Liya said pitifully to me with bright eyes.

"It may be a little homesick." I looked at the fur seal that had been out of the sea for a long time... and looked a little dehydrated, and I didn't know how it persisted until now.

"I'm a little homesick too." Liya murmured to herself.

I took out two silver coins from the purse and handed them to Angelo, and said to her: "Angelo, can you help me buy two mackerel? I think it may have not eaten fish for a long time. I'm too weak, I can stay here and help you take care of Liya."

Angelo took the silver coin and immediately said that he could complete this arduous task, and said to us: "I know there is a fish shop at the corner of the street. In fact, just give it some sardines. Sardines are much cheaper than mackerel. .”

"Of course, it's up to you to make up your own mind." I decided to entrust the purchasing power to this big boy.

"I'll be back soon, Liya, you must be obedient." Angelo happily ran out with a silver coin.

Seeing Angelo running out quickly, I said to Liya: "Hey! Liya, I have a way to make it better."

"Really?" Liya's eyes widened when she heard me say this.

I reached out and scratched her cute little nose, and said to her: "But there is a condition, if you want it to get better, you can't see it often, are you willing?"

Liya said seriously: "As long as it can get better, I am willing to do anything."

I held out my hand and said to her, "You have to help me keep this secret, it's a secret between the two of us."

"I promise you, I swear it on my family's behalf," she said.

After finishing speaking, she stretched out her fleshy little hand and gave me a high five.

"Well, you take it and follow me..."

I stood up and walked into the villa, opened a portal in the corridor near the basement, walked in with Liya who was holding the little sea dog, and then walked towards the unnamed island through the teleportation altar. The fur seal is just out of the sea for too long, and it will be fine when it comes back to the sea...

……

Unexpectedly, a simplified version of the "twilight illumination" magic circle drawing designed by Yerkes scholars last winter will come in handy before this winter, because the simplified version of the drawing is more suitable for magic printing machines Mass-produced, and for the low-light lighting magic circle that is too simple for the magic line, the magic seal machine made by the dwarves has an unprecedented increase in the yield rate to 70.00%.

This simplified version of the 'twilight illumination' magic circle was born, and it was designed by Yerkes scholars to add the associated magic pattern 'concentrating magic ring' to the energy-saving 'twilight illumination' magic rune board Optimized version, this magic rune board is not energy efficient.

Due to the fact that magic spar fragments on the magic market are too cheap, magic energy saving has become a gimmick to increase the value of magic items in this autumn and winter season. The "twilight lighting technique" itself is an extremely magic-saving elementary light magic , when the people of the imperial capital bought magic lamps, they began to pay attention to whether the rune board itself was of high quality and low price, and the tolerance for energy consumption requirements increased a lot.

On the fifth day after returning to the Imperial Capital, Earl Orensteinbeck invited me to meet in the office of the Imperial Capital Infrastructure Construction Management Bureau. He proposed to replace the existing lamps with the cheaper 'twilight lighting spell magic rune board' 'Moonstone Magic Wick' lamp.
