The magician in the city

Chapter 301 The First Mage (2)

Chapter 230 Nine

"What's your name?"

When Luo Qi was still in a daze in disbelief, he suddenly heard Pei Shu asking.Luo Qi was surprised again. Pei Shu was calling his name just now, but he forgot in a blink of an eye. Isn't this Alzheimer's disease?

But when he was in a daze, Guan Xinyue answered Pei Shu's question behind him, "My name is Guan Xinyue."

Oh, that's it.Roach is a little embarrassed, he may be half a beat behind again.He was already prone to slipping away, and it seemed that staying in the mind world for too long had aggravated his problem.He only has one head now, which is not enough. He is still thinking about it, and he didn't even notice that Pei Shu had turned his eyes to look at Guan Xinyue behind them, and he didn't know if he looked particularly dull. .

Behind him, the little girl answered the old mage's question. Although she was a little reluctant, her upbringing still didn't allow her to be so far away from the speaker, so she bit the bullet and walked to the old mage's side.

Luo Qi suddenly remembered that Guan Xinyue didn't really like Pei Shu. Qiong Lin had handled her grandfather's death too indifferently. The mage had always been arrogant, and the officials would never treat the mage's human family members as family members.Of course, Pei Shu represented the mage's officialdom, and Guan Xinyue had long complained about this leader of Qionglin who had never met.

Pei Shu looked at Guan Xinyue carefully, "You look a lot like your grandfather."

Guan Xinyue froze for a moment, "I am a human being."

"I know." Pei Shu smiled slightly, looking at Guan Xinyue with naughty eyes for a moment. "Didn't they tell you that people are not necessarily similar because of blood?"

Luo Qi didn't want to admit that his heart was warmly moved, and he saw that the guard on Guan Xinyue's face had also softened. "Somebody said that," she said, adding, suddenly thinking of the word "they," "the three of them said that too."

"Oh, the three of them are good boys." Pei Shu laughed, his laughter was deep and soft, reminding Roach of those old people who sang jazz, often with such a thick and warm tone.

Pei Shu was very calm, he didn't look like he was pretending, nor was he pretending to be generous.He spoke slowly, had warm eyes, and being around him was like wrapping around an old faded blanket at Grandpa's house.Luo Qi's grandfather has passed away, and there is already a gap between him and his parents. Even though he intends to be defensive and suspicious, the admiration in his heart is finally gently aroused.He couldn't blame Du Zheng for his trust in Pei Shu. He remembered the way Pei Shu sorted out the manuscript for Du Zhengyi when he first met, slowly flattening the rolled up paper with his hands. The mage loves his students very much.

But he watched Du Zhengyi die helplessly.

This thought surged in Roach's mind, like a bitter aftertaste lingering on the tip of his tongue for a long time.There is another thought vaguely popping up, maybe they are all right, Pei Shu is right, Du Zhengyi is also right, they are truly selfless, and Luo Qi is the inferior human being who can't get rid of the vulgar taste.

However, that was Du Zhengyi, his friend, and it was his friend who was going to die.Luo Qi couldn't help approaching Du Zhengyi, Du Zhengyi gave him a questioning look, and then he recovered and moved away.

"Zhengyi, take them with me, I want to find a place for you to avoid the current trouble."

"But Fan Shi is here, are you really not going to look for him?" Du Zhengyi asked. "You can settle them first, and I will stay and help you."

Pei Shu showed a look of being amused, "Child, Fan Shi is right there, and he won't run away. He is a respected person, not a lotus burner, and he won't just walk away, he will only go to the committee to sue me. "

"But, don't you need my help? It takes a lot of work to prepare materials for the committee."

"You need to rest. What follows is indeed a time-consuming and protracted battle, which is more troublesome than solving the problem by force. I may have to participate in dozens of meetings. Qionglin's power battle always burns countless time and resources, but This is my trouble, this is not your battlefield, and you should not be implicated anymore. I have other things for you to handle, and you must have a lot of questions to ask." He smiled slightly and turned his head to look at Look at Roach.

"Okay." Du Zhengyi was reluctantly persuaded.

Roach suspected that he was persuaded by the sentence that there were other things for them to do. Du Zhengyi was like a human spinning top, and it was highly automated, and he would spin without pumping.

As if sensing his slander, Du Zheng turned his head and glared at him.

Pei Shu had already turned around and stretched out a hand in the direction of no one.As if stroking a non-existent outline, Roach saw that it was probably an arc, and then an arched door gradually appeared in front of them.

Roach probably knew how he got here, why he suddenly appeared on the bridge outside the town.He has only heard of such high-level magic.

Guan Xinyue's eyes widened in surprise, and she murmured, "My God, the mage opened a door."

Mahjong looked at her in bewilderment, she seemed to have been greatly shocked, but logically speaking, she should have gotten used to it.

Luo Qi understood what was going on, "The mage opening the portal is a classic game scene, the mage from the outside world in the game, like the magical continent."

Mahjong seems to be difficult to understand, but I don't want to ask clearly. There is indeed a cultural gap.

Du Zhengyi explained the principle to them, "In fact, the basic Pendragon orbit system is still used. It's just that some archmages who are good at space magic can use secret words and their own energy to create a temporary base station and access it. Pendragon track system to complete personnel transfer."

"Oh..." Roach suddenly realized, "I've been wondering how you summon psychic beasts. This is how you summon lions and dogs, isn't it?"

"Yes." Du Zhengyi said, "But I can't open the door now. After I informed the laboratory, the mage over there opened the door and sent it over."

"Sent to you accurately? Isn't it sent to a nearby orbital station?" Roach asked, thinking about the complexity inside.

"The lion is my psychic beast. There is a simple tangle with me. It can share my geographic coordinates. It can help the experimenter on the opposite side correct the position of opening the door." Du Zhengyi further explained. "The principle is actually very simple, not worth mentioning, but it looks a bit like the summoning described by humans."

"Damn it!" Roach said loudly unwillingly, and Du Zhengyi was taken aback.

"what happened?"

"You'd rather share a tangle with a lion than with me?" Roach asked in disbelief.

"Shut up." Du Zhengyi pulled his face down, "You idiot."

"Zhengyi?" Pei Shu called Du Zhengyi's name gently but disapprovingly.

Du Zhengyi pretended to be deaf and dumb.

"Where are we going?" Roach asked angrily.

Because of his bad attitude, he was slapped on the back of the head again. At that time, he had already stepped into the door opened by Pei Shu first.Traveling through the past in one step, the back of the head still has the aftertaste of being beaten.

Stepping out, Roach immediately felt a mass of hot air coming over his face, with the scent of burning tree resin.The air seemed stagnant, and he took a deep breath suspiciously, smelling other strange aromas from the burning air.

He was in a room with no one in it and no lights on.However, a mage's fire was burning quietly, illuminating the surrounding red wooden furniture, and the tall cabinets had a quaint aesthetic.Roach raised his head and could see a bit of delicate painting on the ceiling.

Before he could see clearly, he was shoved from behind, "Tsk, don't you know you're blocking the way?"

Roach moved aside a little distance, he knew that only Du Zhengyi would push him like this, somehow he seemed to be a little annoyed suddenly after seeing his dear mentor. "Child abuse! Do you want to face?"

Du Zhengyi gave him a warning look.However, the conscience of heaven and earth"??????????????????? ?

Du Zhengyi said in a low voice, "Be more disciplined, don't draw too much attention."

"What do you mean, I seem to be crazy." Roach said in a low voice.

They didn't have time to say anything else, Guan Xinyue, Mahjong and Pei Shu walked in quickly one after another.

Luo Qi stood up straight as much as possible, and Du Zhengyi seemed to particularly hope that he would behave like a well-behaved, sensible and promising young man.Judging from the current situation, it must be good to do what Du Zhengyi wanted.

He quickly remembered what Du Zhengyi had said to Mahjong, it was not a good job to be a mind mage for Qionglin, Du Zhengyi probably hoped that he could try his best to make Pei Shu think that he was a dwarf, so as not to be dragged into the role.

But Du Zhengyi himself was quite content to charge Qionglin into battle.

Mahjong looked around curiously, and was the first to ask something went wrong, "What is this place?"

Luo Qi was taken aback by Pei Shu's answer, "This is the seclusion of the highland mages."

Luo Qi couldn't be more confused, a little ashamed, and a little bit confused.

"The highland mage can guarantee that you will not be disturbed." Pei Shu said, "You children should not be involved in the power struggle. I will ask you to go back after everything is over. Zhengyi also needs to find a quiet place to recuperate for a while , This task must have cost you a lot, this is a good and quiet place."

Luo Qi listened silently, and when the old mage had almost finished speaking, Guan Xinyue unexpectedly picked up. "Highland mage? Highland? Is it Wushan? Is there a goddess here? Can I see the goddess later?"

Several men were stunned at the same time.

The old mage turned his head and looked at the little girl gently, but Luo Qi still felt that his eyes were very sharp. "Son," the old man asked kindly, "Which of them told you such a thing?"

Roach was horrified.Fortunately, Guan Xinyue didn't say their names, but the three of them were still looked at by the old man's sharp eyes, and they were all a little embarrassed.
