White Moonlight who woke up and became a paranoid wizard

Chapter 167 Moon cake?

When Alkes saw the old man for the first time, his expression was exactly the same as Feike's at this moment.

Alkes sighed nonchalantly: "Kid, please broaden your horizons. This world is not all humans with blue eyes and yellow hair. There are also humans with black eyes and black hair..."

Arkes touched Feiko's head with a sincere tone, as if it was not him who was equally surprised when he saw this kind of human being for the first time.

Fei didn't think much and just nodded blankly.

His horizons are really too broad now.

This world is really full of wonders!
"Mr. Alkes, where is your old friend?" Feike finally withdrew his surprised eyes and got back to the topic, "Do we need to look for him for a long time?"

Alkes touched his beard, and under Feike's extremely expectant eyes, Alkes gave a conclusion: "I don't know either."

Feike: "???"

Then their journey this time is not like finding a needle in a haystack in this mysterious country?

Feike was very confused, and even felt like crying.

This was not the first time that he realized that the old man Alkes was very unreliable.

"Then what should we do?"

Feike scratched his head and squatted down in distress.

Feike stared at the ants climbing in line in the soil in a daze. Suddenly, he suddenly thought of something: "Mr. Alkes, since you need to invite him, it seems that this doctor is very famous. …Isn’t his name very famous?”

Since he is a well-known doctor in this land.

Then it should be easy for them to find them, right?
Unexpectedly, Alkes scratched his head anxiously, with an embarrassed smile on his face: "I seem...I don't know his name yet, and the old man always likes to live in seclusion in the mountains. He has a quirk. , just because he is afraid that others will know that he knows medical skills, so that he will not go to the clinic easily... because this old man finds it troublesome. "

Alkes usually calls that person "old man" directly.

The old man was not very angry with him, so he let him call him that.

Feike just stared at Alkes intently, and he suddenly felt that another string of his rationality was about to be broken.

unreliable!
The old man Alks is really unreliable! -
the other side.

Eric always stayed by his mother's bedside. Eric found all the medicinal herbs that Alkes mentioned at the first time. The rest had to wait for Alkes and Feike to come back.

Eric stood up worriedly and paced back and forth in the princess's bedroom.

The sound of his footsteps was gentle, but it kept the princess from falling asleep.

"Are you worried?" The princess was woken up again. Instead of getting angry at Eric, she asked softly.

Eric heard the sound and stopped pacing anxiously. After meeting his mother's gaze, Eric hurriedly stepped forward and stayed by the princess's side again: "Did I wake you up?"

The princess shook her head and gently stroked Eric's cheek: "Are you worried about that child?"

In the eyes of the princess, Eric and Feike are both children.

They are all children whose arms are still very immature.

Eric said nothing, but the doubt in his eyes said it all.

He worries about Fick going to a foreign country alone.

Even though Feike has been wandering alone all year round and has long developed the ability to adapt to various environments, Eric is still worried about his safety...

Especially when Feike is still with that unreliable old man!
Eric had already sent several bodyguards to quietly follow Alkes and Feike, protecting the safety of the old and young along the way, and also conveying the whereabouts of Alkes and Feike to Eric at all times. gram.

However, when Feco and Alkes boarded a cruise ship, the whereabouts of the old and the young actually disappeared?
Eric suddenly became vigilant and had already made countless worst guesses in his heart.

He wasn't sure what would happen to Alkes and Feike?
Even shipwrecks, rocks, and thunderstorms...

All the worst conjectures filled Eric's mind, and he immediately ordered to search the various routes that the cruise ship that Alkes and Feike took along the way.

Check to see if there are any other accidents...

Eric was so anxious that he almost ordered the guards to dig three feet into the ground!

However, the guards collected all the local news leaflets and questioned all the residents at the time, but no one could tell the whereabouts of the ship.

The ship that Alkes and Feike were on seemed to be invisible out of thin air, and suddenly disappeared!
Where did they go? !
Eric tugged on Canran's hair in distress.

He felt that his symptoms of irritability and irritability were getting worse.

But facing the princess, Eric did not dare to express his inner worries. Feike and Alkes were heading for the princess's medicinal materials on this trip.

If Alkes and Feike disappeared overnight, the princess would not be worried about her medicinal materials immediately. She is so kind, and she must be worried about the safety of the old and the young!

Eric didn't want the princess to have a psychological burden.

I had no choice but to fabricate a lie at random——

"Feike contacted me. He said that those medicinal herbs were relatively rare, and the old man in the mysterious Eastern country was unwilling to deliver them to him... So, Feike was dealing with that old man."

Eric's words were reasonable and well-founded, and for a moment the princess was unaware of the clues. The princess could only sigh softly: "As long as they are fine, my medicinal materials are fine. I have been sick for such a long time anyway. It may not be cured..."

If something unexpected happens to Feiko and Alkes because of her medicine...

Then she will definitely die of guilt!

Eric's expression froze. He was not very good at lying. His lies just now were faintly trembling. Eric was also afraid that he would reveal his clues and his mother would find out that he was lying.

"Mother, please have a good rest and I won't disturb you."

Eric stood up as he spoke, and patted the princess's shoulders and back with his big hands, caressing her gently.

Eric knew that if he stayed here all the time, his mother would not be able to sleep peacefully.

Eric had been pretending very well. The corners of the boy's lips were slightly hooked, and he showed a light and gentle smile to the princess. However, when Eric walked out of the princess's bedroom, Eric was still slightly hooked. The corners of his raised lips instantly flattened, and a cold expression appeared on his tough handsome face.

Eric made a prompt decision and sent out a group of guards to find the whereabouts of Feco and Alkes.

If you say you’re not worried, that’s definitely a lie!

Eric felt as if a huge boulder was tied to his hair on the tip of his heart!
The boulder was so heavy that he could hardly breathe, as if Eric would be crushed at any time!

Eric raised his hand, and a shadow guard immediately came forward respectfully, "His Royal Highness Prince Eric!"

"Send more people and go find Feike!" There was a hint of impatience in the cold and low voice.

"Yes!"
-
On the other side, Feike and Alkes, who were far away in the mysterious Eastern country, were walking aimlessly on the streets.

This country is celebrating some grand festival, and the streets and alleys are extremely lively.

Feike and Alkes looked at each other, and finally walked into the lively market together.

Anyway, at this moment, they couldn't find the old man's whereabouts for a while.

It is better to experience the unique culture of other countries.

Feike had just taken a few steps closer when a girl with dark eyes looked towards him, her lips slightly raised, and a bright smile appeared. The little girl seemed to be saying something, but there was a language barrier between them, so Feike had no choice but to He also pursed his lips and showed a faint smile.

The little girl's voice was as clear as a silver bell.

Alkes, who was beside Feike, had a smile in his deep-set eyes.

He likes well-behaved and cute children best.

The little girl muttered something to them, and then pointed to a small distance not far away. Feike followed the little girl's fingertips and looked over. It was a small vendor selling pastries.

In front of the stall, a flag like a sign was erected.

There were also words written on it that Feike couldn't understand.

Feike tilted his head and looked at the small vendor, which was filled with dense pastries.

There were a few words on the pastry that Fei Ke couldn't understand, and the sweet aroma hit his nostrils.

When the stall owner saw the two alien humans, Feike and Alkes, approaching, he also gave him warm hospitality. He spoke words that Feike couldn't understand. He was probably introducing his pastries and talking about the price...

Feike couldn't help but pointed at the pastries and curiously asked Alkes beside him: "Mr. Alkes, what is this pastry?"

Alex saw those pastries very familiar.

He remembered that the old man had done it for him a long time ago.

It seems like a pastry that can only be eaten on a special holiday...

Alkes' Adam's apple moved slightly, and he hesitantly squeezed out two words: "Moon...cake...?"

Alkes's voice was very irregular and his tongue was very heavy. Even the vendor who was selling mooncakes was stunned for a few times. The vendor immediately understood what the foreigner was talking about and smiled in accommodating manner: " Yes! This is a mooncake!"

"Moon cake?" Fei Ke seemed to be very unfamiliar with this word, and repeated those two words in doubt, and couldn't help but ask, "What is that?"

Is this name really weird?
When Alkes recalled the name of this pastry, Alkes' memory gradually became clearer.

He still remembered that it was a full moon night.

The old man was busy in the kitchen. I don’t know how long it had passed. The old man whose mind was out of line suddenly came to Alkes’ side, patted him on the shoulder, and smiled mysteriously: “I’ll treat you to a treat today.” thing!"

"Huh? Why are you so generous today?" Alkes joked funnyly.

This old man was surprisingly stingy towards him.

Even going to the vegetable market in the morning to buy vegetables has to be done in an AA manner, let alone taking the initiative to treat him to delicious food...

"When did I stop being generous?" The old man put his hands on his hips pretending to be angry, but there was no anger in his eyes. Instead, he looked more like a childish old naughty boy. "Have I not always been generous?"

You really are telling lies with your eyes open.

Alkes just sneered disdainfully and rolled his eyes silently in his heart.

Just him?

Still generous?
What about a liar?
However, complaints are complaints, and Alkes was still looking forward to what the old man said. He said, "Treat him to a good meal"?
Alkes shamelessly approached and rubbed his hands in anticipation: "What good stuff is it?"

Seeing that Alkes finally became interested in what he said, the old man's face softened slightly and he took out a plate of pastries from behind him. The pastries were round and brushed with a layer of brown oil, and each pastry was pressed with The different patterns seemed to be several words that Alkes didn't recognize.

The pastries were delicious, and Alex became more and more interested.

The two old men simply sat in the yard outside the house, sitting on a large boulder, looking up at the full moon hanging on the branches in boredom.

"Why are you making cakes for me all of a sudden?" Alkes glanced at the old man incredulously, "What's the saying in your country? No reward for no merit...? I can't afford this cake. Will you use this pastry as a threat next month to ask me to buy groceries and do housework?"

Alkes asked the old man's soul very vigilantly.

The old man said that his heart was very hurt.

It was rare that he wanted to be nice to Alkes, but it turned out to be profitable.

"Am I that kind of person!"

The old man shook his head helplessly, and pointed at the cakes on the plate with his old fingertips, "This is called moon cake in our country. Today is the Mid-Autumn Festival. I just want you to experience the national culture of our country. You Why are you still so petty?"

"Moon...cake...?" Alkes repeated in a heavy voice and inarticulately.

The old man corrected his pronunciation amusingly, and pointed to the brightest moon in the night sky: "In our country, the Mid-Autumn Festival is an annual festival. On this day, a family that usually travels around We would gather together, eat moon cakes, admire the moon, and talk with each other in friendly and homely ways..."

It should be a family reunion holiday.

Alkes understood and just nodded blankly. His thinking was simple and rational. He pointed at the old man in confusion: "But, you and I are friends, not family members?" Why are we still gathering together? Let’s enjoy the moon and eat mooncakes together?

The old man was startled. His childhood sweetheart loved his wife. After he passed away from an unexpected epidemic, the old man no longer married his wife. He spent most of his life alone. It was also an accident that the old man found that he and Alkes could chat very well. .

In his heart, he may have regarded Alkes as a family member.

"Some family relationships are more than blood relations," the old man picked up a mooncake and stuffed it into Alkes' mouth. "Some family relationships, although not relatives, are better than relatives."
