Time stops for the brave, evil paths quickly pass

Chapter 45 What happened to illiteracy?
Yuan Kong time, two days later.

After getting off the carriage, Yuan Kong immediately paused time and walked towards the Haunted Manor again.

There was a twist in the middle, and the soles of his feet almost had no curve at all.

When he arrived at the haunted manor, he stopped, took out the small gift from the handle, and walked into the manor.

Pass through the wrought iron gate and step across the courtyard.

Yuan Kong was about to knock on the door, but with a creak, the door opened by itself.

behind the door.

Ms. Magic Eye wore a simple white dress, her blond hair was simply tied up, and she only wore light eye makeup on her face. Dressed up like this, it's less extravagant and more neighborly...

No.

Not at all next door, this woman is too exquisite to be like a mortal.

Yuan Kongqi asked: "Are you going out?"

Magic Eye waved his hand: "I saw you coming, my eyes are very good."

"Oh... the real magic eye?"

"How could there be a wrong nickname? So——Mr. Yuan comes back again and again. Why?"

Demon Eye crossed his arms and chest, smiling.

Nothing.

I was afraid of missing the "drama", so I came here specially.

Yuan Kong said: "If you don't welcome me, I can leave."

"You can leave, but the cake stays. I like sweets, especially cake."

Yuan Kong handed it over: "The cakes from Green Bakery are the best in Jinghu City. The one I have is exclusive to members. If you don't apply for a card from him, you won't be able to buy it!"

even though--

The money to apply for the card belonged to Solotto, and it gradually became a habit to withdraw money from Solotto's small vault.

All buddies.

Boss Suo is so rich and Yuan Kong doesn't get much, so he shouldn't care.

"Thank you, I will enjoy it." Magic Eye took the cake and extended his hand to show it, "Please come in, Mr. Yuan."

Yuan Kongke walked in politely.

A man and a woman were alone in the same room, but it was he, Yuan Kong, who took the initiative to visit. The atmosphere was more or less subtle, as if Yuan Kong wanted to win the favor of the magic eye.

Heaven and earth conscience.

Yuan Kong was here purely for the mission.

Walking into the living room and sitting down at the table, he said directly without saying anything: "Magic Eye, do you know the latest astronomical calendar?"

Magic Eye sat by the window and opened the paper box containing the cake: "I know. It's taught in the textbook, don't you know?"

what?
I never went to school here.

Yuan Kong's heart skipped a beat and he quickly asked: "Has the prediction made eight hundred years ago between you and Hannuo been calibrated? Under the new calendar, is it six days later?"

"?"

The magic eye raised its smart eyes and glanced at Yuan Kong.

She took the silver spoon and ate the strawberry on the cake first: "Do you care about this? The Rakshasa Golden Crown really has no value, not even 'cultural value'. Because there are a large number of fake 'Rakshasa Golden Crown' on the market, no one can Prove that what you have is genuine and therefore of no value.”

"Misunderstood. I am not interested in the treasures of your Rakshasa Kingdom. I just want to know if it is true that in six days - now it is five days later, 'the hidden road will be revealed in the moonlight'."

"..."

Is this important?
Yuan Kong cares about time very much. Why is this?
Magic Eye thought for a moment and said, "I don't know."

"You do not know?"

"This 'prophecy' comes from the Rakshasa royal family. I am not a member of the royal family. The prophecy was told to my ancestors by a member of the Rakshasa royal family who stayed in my house two hundred years ago - as to whether it is 'calibrated' according to the new calendar, I don’t think so.”

Hearing this, Yuan Kong nodded slowly.

The magic eye added: "In addition, I have done the calculation before. If according to the new calendar, the predicted day is actually tonight. Moreover, the prophecy makes it very clear that on the 'promised day', a round will rise in the sky. A blue moon, not a bright white moon.”

When? today?

If you say that, I’m not sleepy anymore!
Yuan Kong was full of energy and asked quickly: "I want to see the glory of your Rakshasa Kingdom. You don't mind, right?"

Demon Eye shrugged: "I don't mind, you can stay if you want."

Yuan Kong nodded with a smile, took out a book from his backpack, and began to study it.

The magic eye was quite curious. She took a look at the book and was immediately shocked——

That’s “Annan Language Enlightenment”!
She looked at Yuan Kong in astonishment and said curiously: "I heard you speak very fluently and have no accent. I didn't expect you to be illiterate!"

"What happened to the illiterates? Did the illiterates eat your rice?"

The devil's eye glanced at Yuan Kong a few more times, but in the end he didn't ask any more questions.

Yuan Kong looked like he had no time to talk to her. Of course she would not lower herself and take the initiative to talk to Yuan Kong.

She picked up the book "True Understanding in Fire" on the table and read it quietly.

For a moment, the only sound in the haunted manor was the sound of books being turned.

Ms. Magic Eye has the ability to cast spells. She can summon fire to injure enemies. "True Understanding of Fire" is a very classic theory book on fire magic. She has read it many times, but she always reads it new.

From time to time, she would pull away from the text and glance at Yuan Kong.

This Yuan Kong is more serious than her!

At this moment, he had laid out pen and paper on the table, carefully copied the Annan script, and added phonetic symbols on it.

"Ah, this person..."

The magic eye is extremely puzzling.

There is no place where I can't read books. He made a special trip here and was polite enough to bring a small gift. But it turns out he just came to read a book?
"Is this a way to attract me? It is indeed very novel."

The magic eye tried to ignore it.

I really can't ignore it.

She tapped the table with her knuckles to call Yuan Kong's attention: "Mr. Yuan, are you using this place as a library?"

Yuan Kong looked at her: "What's wrong?"

"What are you talking about! Learning is indeed an important means of self-improvement, and one cannot give up learning. But at some point... forget it, let me just say it! Don't you think now is a good time to win my favor?"

what?
Yuan Kong looked at the magic eye in confusion, with some resistance.

Maybe it was the confusion and resistance in Yuan Kong's eyes that stung the Demon Eye, and the Demon Eye's emotions became visibly aroused.

She picked up the folding fan, banged on the table, and said: "Stop your childish performance and face your truest desires! Since I let you in, it means that I gave you a chance to express yourself - come on Go ahead, release the beast in you, please me, please me, let me see your impatient and reserved ugliness! I will appropriately cooperate with your performance so that your frustration will not be too strong. "

"..."

Yuan Kong opened his mouth slightly and looked at the magic eyes in horror.

This woman...

What did you just say?
It feels like she has some mental problems, but it's hard to say it outright.

Otherwise, just have a casual chat with her out of humanitarian concern?
Yuan Kong has been in this world for a long time, but most of the time, he lives alone.

Before time travel, he was a shy and dull man like Little John Khan, and he became even more so after time travel.

Chat, what to talk about?
Don’t even talk about the international situation. Yuan Kong now doesn’t even know what countries are on the border of the Annan Kingdom, let alone history;

Speaking of culture and entertainment...

In this world with relatively backward productivity, can the cultural and entertainment industry develop?
As for gossip and whatnot, just like the international situation, I don’t know.

Yuan Kong thought for a moment, and then said: "It's not impossible to chat. Then, Magic Eye, you can sing a song for me."

The devil's eye felt puzzled: "Shall I sing to you?"

"what happened?"

"what."

Demonic Eyes was speechless. She picked up "The True Interpretation of Fire", walked to the sofa with her head held high and sat down, drawing a clear line between herself and Yuan Kong.

Yuan Kong was happy and continued to learn his Annan script.
