After the Legend Chapter 18: Adventure in the magician’s house
Ming Na screamed and the floor above her head was closed. She didn't know where she landed. Suddenly, a dim light appeared in the darkness, allowing her to barely see her surroundings.
This seems to be a space carved out in the belly of the mountain. The stone walls on both sides are inlaid with a few small yellow spar, emitting a faint light. There was a curved track in front of her, leading to nowhere, and the chair she was sitting on was at the beginning of the track. She looked down at her feet, it was pitch black, and she couldn't seem to see the ground.
At this time, the chair suddenly moved and slid forward along the track, not very fast. She was looking curiously at the mountain walls on both sides, when suddenly a pipe stretched out from the right and sprayed her with water. Fortunately, the water was hot, but she was startled.
But then another tube sticks out from the left side, spewing out an unknown liquid. She only felt that it was a little sticky and smelled of herbs, but she didn't know what it was used for. Touch your hand, eh? It's slippery, and it creates bubbles.
The tube retracted, but a few sponge sticks suddenly appeared above, and they rubbed her head, face and body back and forth, not only rubbing her hair and body, but also her clothes. She stared at the sticks moving around her, struggling to swing her arms a few times, and all the sticks shrank back, but she was already covered in foam by this time.
Just as she was about to cry without tears, another tube stretched out from the front. This time, it was also hot water, which flushed the foam all over her body. She understood at this time, so these things are used for bathing, washing hair and washing clothes? But isn't it common to wash clothes and people separately?
Before she could understand, something new appeared on the mountain walls on both sides, but this time it was four big horns, and four strong warm winds blew from it, and the hair, body and clothes on Minna were blown away. All dried. Only when the warm air stopped, her clothes were wrinkled and her hair was messed up. A comb came out horizontally from the front, and combed down from the position of her forehead very strangely, all the way to the waist, and back and forth a few times before shrinking back.
The speed of the chair suddenly accelerated, so fast that Minna couldn't help but scream. At this time, the track ahead came to an end, the chair got stuck at the end and was forced to stop, but Minna flew up due to inertia and her body A parabola was drawn in the air and landed on a large bed. Despite the soft mattress, her chin still hurt from hitting, and she climbed up while touching her chin. Suddenly, her eyes went black, something fell and covered her completely.
When she opened her body, it turned out to be a blanket, which seemed to be hanging on the wall on the left. Ming Na pulled it apart and looked around, only to realize that she was in a large room.
This should be a bedroom, also carved out of the mountainside, with a thick woven carpet on the ground, and a fireplace almost identical to the one seen on the ground, also burning. There are a few low cabinets by the bed, and two shelves in the past. Although there are also many medicine bottles, most of them are books.
The space here is very large, the ceiling is high, there are no hanging lamps and chandeliers, and there is no spar inlaid in the mountain wall just seen, it looks very empty. Why is there such a place in Grandpa Sennett's house? Is this his bedroom? How did you get it out? It turns out that he showers, washes his hair and washes his clothes like this, no wonder his clothes are dirty.
Minna yawned and suddenly smelled a scent in the air, which made people feel very familiar, like... the smell of my mother...
She yawned again, feeling that her eyelids were getting heavier and heavier. The mattress on her body seemed to be quite soft. It should be very comfortable, right? She pulled the blanket on her body and fell asleep on the bed simply.
I don't know how long she slept, but when she woke up, she was no longer in that bedroom. She was sleeping on a narrow little bed, her grandfather Xiao Tianjian was sitting opposite, reading with a book in his hand, when he saw her waking up, he smiled and said, "Why did you run away there, girl? I'm frightened. Let's jump."
Ming Na got up with a smile and looked at this unfamiliar room. The place was very small, and she could only put down two narrow beds, a bedside table, and a clothes rack. There is a window on the wall, looking out through the window, the eyes are full of mountains.
Xiao Tianjian put down the book in his hand and patted her head: "This is the guest room of Lao Sen's house, which is much smaller than the room where he sleeps. That old ghost is stingy!" Curious: "How the **** did you get down? I've sat on that chair dozens of times and never moved."
Minna tilted her head and thought for a while: "It seems like...my elbow hit somewhere, and then it suddenly fell off."
"A mechanism?" Xiao Tianjian asked, "I know he is good at magic mechanism, but how could he be so coincidental? I touched the chair from beginning to end just now, but it didn't respond at all. Why did you touch it, Does it move?"
"Of course it won't move if you touch it." The old magician's voice came from the door, "My mechanism is a magic mechanism, and it is activated by magic." The pink-bearded old man walked into the room, his robe even more intense. Dirty: "You don't have any magic power at all, it's impossible to make it move, even if you dismantle it, it's useless! My poor chair was actually insulted by you." After saying that, he glared at Xiao Tianjian.
Xiao Tianjian sneered, but Ming Na asked with great interest: "Grandpa Sennett, did you dug up that room? Those... organs, did you take a shower, wash your hair and do your laundry?"
Sennett coughed lightly: "Almost, but I don't have any hair. In fact, I use it for bathing and washing my beard and laundry."
"Then why wash with clothes on? Everyone else takes off their clothes and washes them?"
"That's a waste of time." Sennett shook his finger, "Anyway, take it off and wash it and then put it on again, and if you take off your clothes in the shower, you have to put it on again after you wash it, why bother? It's better to wear and wash, and kill three birds with one stone."
Xiao Tianjian made a "cut": "Don't teach bad children, let my granddaughter also develop your bad habit of being disheveled." He glanced at the stain on Sennett's robe and turned his face away: " I don't have magic power, so I can't touch your mechanism, but how can Minna have magic power? When my grandson Bevan came last time, you clearly said that my descendants are affected by my bloodline, and it is difficult to attract magic elements."
Sennett looked at Minna: "I'm not sure about this, why don't you give the child a test?"
They quickly turned back to the large room in front. After searching for a long time, Sennet finally found a dusty crystal ball with a corner missing from the base: "It's been useless for decades, I don't know. It's okay, but the quality of this brand of crystal ball is very reliable." He grabbed his sleeve and rubbed the crystal ball a few times, then put it on the table: "Try it, just put your hand on it."
Ming Na was about to put her hand up when she heard that, but was stopped by Xiao Tianjian. He took out a large piece of cloth and wiped it on the ball for a long time before putting it back on the base, raising his face at his granddaughter. : "Try it, it's clean."
Minna put her hand on it. At first the crystal ball did not respond, but slowly, it began to emit a faint blue light, as blue as the sky. She looked at the light with some fascination and asked, "This color is so beautiful, Grandpa Sennett, don't I have magic powers?"
Sennet hummed a few times, then stopped moving. Xiao Tianjian said with a smile: "If it can emit light, it means it has magic power. I have seen others test it. This...blue, is the water element?"
Sennet snorted twice: "It's a water element, with a little light element, maybe a little wind element, but it doesn't matter much, at most is a trainee magician, and it can't be a climate at all. This must be caused by you. , the child's mother may have the bloodline of a magician, but unfortunately it was suppressed by your bloodline."
Xiao Tianjian asked Ming Na, "Has there ever been a magician in your mother's family?"
"Yes." She knew this, "Mom said that my grandmother is a junior magician, and she went to some magic academy in Shaonan, but after marrying my grandfather, she stopped studying. ."
Sennet sighed a lot when he heard it, but soon cheered up: "Although the magic power is a little lower, it is not a problem to learn potions, Xiao Mingna, don't you like my potions? Do you want to learn from me? I'm so bored here alone, I can't do anything when all four pots are boiling potions, and that half-elf doesn't like to talk."
Xiao Tianjian expressed his objection to this: "Don't talk nonsense, what does your boredom have to do with us? My granddaughter can't stay here for a long time, at most she will leave in a month or two. Your potion is complicated, no? It's impossible to learn it in a few years. As I said, it doesn't matter if the magic power is low, just learn a few practical magics, such as water polo, lighting, fireball, etc. There is water to drink anytime, anywhere, and you don't have to worry about finding it. If there is no water source, even if there is no flint, you can make a fire, and it will be even better if you can get some cool wind to cool yourself in summer.”
Sennet glared at him: "What a foresight! Don't you have a storage ring? Worried about not having something to eat or drink? If you're afraid of the heat, just don't go out. What are those little magics? Well, if you are sick or injured, you don't need to go to a doctor, you can solve it yourself."
The two old men quarreled like this. Minna looked to the left and to the right for a while, and couldn't help sighing. She touched her stomach and seemed to be a little hungry, so she left the two adults behind and ran to the tea tray, knocking and shaking, Huh? Why run out without something to eat? She suddenly remembered that Sennet seemed to be hitting the tea tray with a small stick, and went to find the stick.
I haven't found it yet. The two old men have reached an agreement. Within a month, Sennett will teach Minna a few simple little magics. At the same time, Minna will also learn to handle potion materials and prepare the most practical There are four kinds of potions, namely cold potion, cough potion, fever potion, and hemostatic agent.
Ming Na put forward her own opinion after listening: "I want to learn how to make the potion that changes the color of hair and eyes!" Xiao Tianjian glared: "Your head looks like a colored feather duster, you still need to learn? No way!" Sennei Te also persuaded: "That is difficult, Xiao Mingna, you should learn this simple first."
Ming Na puffed up her bun face, and Sennett looked soft and gave in: "Okay, okay, I'll teach you, but you have to learn the four first."
Minna was satisfied after that, and turned to the most urgent request at the moment: "I'm so hungry, Grandpa Sennett, how can that tea tray be transformed into something to eat?"
Xiao Tianjian felt a little sour when he saw his granddaughter getting close to his old friend: "Che, don't be fooled by him, food cannot be conjured by magic."
"But I saw that Grandpa Sennett knocked on that tea tray, and bread and milk came out of the tray?"
Sennet coughed a few times and looked at Minna with a smile on his face: "That wasn't concocted, someone made it beforehand and stored it. I knocked on the tea tray and it just came out and got hot. ."
"Who did that?" Minna rolled her eyes, "Could it be that beautiful uncle?" She never saw the fifth person here again.
Sennett just coughed, mumbled "it wasn't him," and took out a stick -- a wand, actually -- and tapped the tea tray, from which he took three servings of bread and milk.
Ming Na lived in this strange house with her grandfather, practicing martial arts for half a day, and learning magic and potions for half a day. Because Xiao Tianjian was sitting in a small room all day, not knowing what to do, she felt a little bored. She thought it was very interesting magic, but because she was still young and a beginner, her magic power was low, so she could only increase her magic power through meditation first. As for potions, obviously drying herbs, cutting insect limbs, and distinguishing ore types is not the least bit different from making fun color-changing potions.
Because she was bored, she started harassing her two grandfathers, but they were too busy to talk to her, so she had to focus on another thing, which was adventure.
She's been living here for a few days now, and she's familiar with the situation around the house. Affected by the fright on the day of landing, she would not go beyond the big lawn, so as not to be blown down the mountain by the wind, but there was a large forest in the far west. She wanted to go in and play, but was stopped by the half-elf: "It's poisonous, don't go in." She just remembered the day that grandfather mentioned the poisonous fog in the woods, and wondered if it was this?
Since it was poisonous, there was nothing she could do, so she had to run to the cave in the mountain wall. There are two caves on the mountain wall here that can be drilled occasionally. One of them has a spring water. There are some strange fruits growing by the water. She wanted to pick them and eat them, but was stopped by the half-elf who appeared at an unknown time: "Poisonous, Don't eat it."
Well, she doesn't eat. Throwing the fruit away, Ming Na turned to the half-elf: "Pretty uncle, shall we play together?" The half-elf gave her a cold look, then turned and left.
Look how boring she is. The two people who can talk to her, except to guide her at a fixed time every day, ignore her; and the only one who has time to talk to her ignores her. Ming Na puffed out her bun face again and decided to find new fun.
She's been to most of the weird house they live in, including the library in the basement, the potion material storage room, and the magic mechanism workshop, but there's one place she's never been to , that is the "slanted room" on the second floor, that is, the interior of the house that is stuck at an angle.
She now knows the temperament of the great magician Sennet. No matter what she does in the house, as long as she touches the soft transparent partition, it means that it is something that can't be touched or can't go. There is no such compartment on the second floor, which means she can go. Then why did Grandpa Sennett always tell her not to go upstairs?
Minna spent the afternoon~IndoMTL.com~ to finish the task given by Sennett early, took the book and pretended to read it seriously in front of the fireplace. Xiao Tianjian and Sennet both thought that she would not toss anymore, and when their work was critical, they closed the door and concentrated on their business. Who knew that when Ming Na saw that they closed the door, she quietly got up and moved back, and crept up the stairs to the second floor.
There is only one door, open it, everything inside is crooked, but when she walks in, she finds herself standing right there, looking back, the original door is crooked . But when she exited the room, she was still standing upright, but the door was crooked again. Ming Na thought this was really interesting, so she kept going in and out, in and out, thinking to herself, what would it be like if something was half in the room and half outside the room?
But she tried it herself and couldn't feel it, so she took out the handkerchief she was wearing and put it on the floor of the door, half inside the room and half outside, this time she could see it clearly Then, the handkerchief that was supposed to be lying flat on the ground was bent from the middle.
Why does this happen? What kind of secret does this room hold?
Minna put away the handkerchief, walked into the room, and looked around. This is no different from an ordinary room, even more like a normal room than the downstairs. If there is anything special, it is probably the doors on the opposite wall. She walked to the door in the middle and looked out through the crack.
Huh? Is there someone there? And there are many people walking around, it seems to be a street, how is this possible?
She grabbed the doorknob and wanted to open it to see what was on the other side of the door.
