To Burris The Spellcaster And His Family Dependent - Chapter 71
The Buguishan Mountains are like spring all year round, with flourishing vegetation and blooming flowers all year round. The area under the mountainside is always comfortable and pleasant. Only the highest summits change with the seasons.
The weather turned slightly cooler, the mountain half-waist was dyed golden red by autumn, and the higher part seemed to be dipped in thin frosting sugar.
It is said that Holly Village is the most suitable for overlooking the beautiful scenery. Standing at a slightly higher position in the village, you can have a panoramic view of the “Honey Cake Mountain”. If you go directly to the forest or meadow, it is difficult to grasp the beauty of the mountains. .
“Honey Cake Hill?” After listening to the introduction of the barmaid, the hooded traveler almost choked with laughter.
The waitress raised her eyebrows triumphantly: “I also know this name is funny, but our ancestors called it that for generations. The Holly Village used to be very poor. Everyone said that there was a stream of honey on the Honey Cake Mountain, and there were sweets and candy in the forest. A house made of biscuits…but the mountain does not turn into honey color every year, and sometimes the weather is too warm, the mountain is green all year round, so everyone said it was because of magic. If you can’t find candy and honey in the mountain, That is hidden by magic.”
The traveler sighed, “Was Dongqing Village poor before? It’s okay for me now… Well, it’s much more prosperous than my hometown.”
The waitress said: “When my grandfather’s generation was young, Dongqing Village was still very poor. Later, roads were built here, factories were built, and plantations were established with the Master…”
“Mage? Is it Burris Gelshaw?”
The passenger asked, raising his head, and the hood of the cloak slipped down.
When she met him, the waitress couldn’t help but gasp—this plainly dressed traveler turned out to be an elf, and… he was too good-looking!
He has long, smooth, light golden hair, like a waterfall of champagne. His skin is white and red, and it is as delicate as cream. His dark green eyes are deep and mysterious, and he looks in, as if looking into the silence. The ancient forest… and his smile, his smile is gentle, noble, and with a hint of estranged shyness. If you only look at this face, everyone might guess that he is the prince of the elf kingdom.
The waitress was stunned for a long time, but she didn’t even pick up the words. The more she looked at the elf, the more her heart tightened, so she quickly averted her gaze and stared at his gray cloak…The traveler was good-looking, but dressed very shabby. His cloak is rough and dull, and the clothes inside are as simple as northern peasants’ clothing. Any fruit grower in Dongqing Village wears better than him.
But… but he looks good! That perfect face, that pair of white pointy ears… Such a beautiful creature, even in ragged clothes, is just as cute.
The passenger was staring uncomfortably, and deliberately coughed a few times. The waitress blushed and said, “Oh, sorry, what did you just say? Master Gershaw here? Did you look out the window and see the mountain forest in the distance? And the large area behind… it was all he The land. Of course, strictly speaking it is shared by him and the royal family of Sargo…”
The elf nodded and asked the waitress for a cup of honey water. Few adults order such things. The waitress tried to recommend light fruit wine and gooseberry tea, but the elves insisted on only honey water.
The waitress walked away with the tray, and couldn’t help but look back at the beautiful customer.
I saw the elf looking out the window thoughtfully, Shui Yingying’s eyes filled with sorrow like nothing.
=============================
There is a gate in the attic on the top floor of the Mage Tower.
It is said to be a door, but in fact it is no different from a wall. It has no handles and no gaps. It looks like an ordinary wall. The outside of the wall is the sky outside the tower. Ordinary people can’t find it even if they stand in front of the “door”. Methods.
This door leads to a hidden space. It is constructed by magic and is the secret area of Master Burris Gelshaw.
Apart from Burris and the golem controlled by him, no one has ever entered.
The wall shook slightly, and ripples began to appear. When the rhythm of the water wave was at its strongest, a double-opened metal door emerged from the bottom of the “water”. Burris pushed out the door and closed the door with his backhand. The water waves on the wall disappeared immediately.
Not long ago, Burris launched this secret space to run a large analytical array. He wants to use it to observe the ancient book. It is very troublesome to control and use the magic circle. Burris spends a whole day in it every day, and his steps are always light when he comes out.
Mr. Willis, the golem, was waiting for him outside and brought him hot tea and crackers in time. After he became younger, Burris fell in love with food that he chewed, and after a whole day of hard work, this crisp and sweet thing always healed his body and mind.
He sat in the attic for a while, and after clearing up his mood, he ordered Mr. Willis to open the door.
The attic is locked all the year round, and he will lock it back in time when he comes in. The door is made of metal, and the door frame is reinforced with metal as a whole. The door lock is a four-way bolt, which is almost impossible to pry after it is locked. This kind of door is very reliable. Especially when guarding against the Skeleton King, this kind of door is very reliable.
The protection spell is ineffective against the Maharaja, and only physical isolation can completely stop him. If he wanted to pick the lock, or even violently break the door, then he would definitely make a loud noise, and Burris would surely find out in time.
In fact, Burris did not conceal the location of the ancient book. He clearly told Lott: The book is stored in the isolation room. Please wait for me for a while. I want to rule out a few more possible risks.
Lott agreed, and it seemed that he really let go of his obsession with the book for a while. He participated in several fairs, bought a lot of clothes with worrying aesthetics, and wrote down a long list of “want to eat this” every day and gave it to the golem in the kitchen…
He also borrowed some golems and corpses to go out. He said that he would take Count Hrolf to train for hunting and biting…Earl Hrolf is indeed a dog that has received the power of a demigod. It is much larger than a dog of the same age, and is almost out of proportion.
And it’s very smart, and it can almost catch up with golem animals. Once, the prince touched it and said, “Earl Herroff, you must keep in mind that I am your leader, and so is Burris Gelshaw. You must protect him like a knight to the king. Respect him like a son to his father. You can never hurt him. Everyone who wants to hurt him is your mortal enemy. Remember?”
Burris laughed beside him: “My lord, dogs can’t understand such a long sentence even if they understand human nature.”
“I know,” the Maharaja slowly stroked the dog’s head. “Although I have spoken, I am not communicating with him by words. I use will and sincerity.”
“Will and sincerity?”
Lot said: “Like the druids. The druids conveyed a kind of love for the big forest, and the animals around him can feel it. I conveyed my love for you to the Earl of Herolf, Count Hrolf can understand that it should love you too.”
Burris was speechless for a long time. In the face of sweet talk, he is always so slow to respond.
Fortunately, Lot knows him well and is considerate. Lotter used to urge him to give a response. Now Lott only smiles and looks at him. He either lazily talks about the next topic or walks over to touch him. His hair.
At this moment, Burris will feel in a daze that he is really only twenty years old-naive, never seen the world, easily shy, not enough brain, slow reaction, always bowed his head and contemplation can not think about this reason… and the skeleton is big. Jun is a mature and steady protector. He is trustworthy, strong in action, mysterious but not dangerous… He will always stay by his side.
Now, the 80-year-old mage has his own tower and successfully lifted the curse of the demigod. The demigod has become the eternal ally of the mage, and the mage lives happily in a place like spring all year round…
Burris was surprised to find that the things that were considered out of reach when he was young are now in sight. The wishes he secretly made in the dark night have now been realized one by one.
Life has come to the present so naturally, without any sense of reality.
So what will they face next? Obviously, it is a collection of chronicles and carols.
The mage’s wishes were fulfilled, but the demigod’s long-cherished wish was not fulfilled.
However, Burris always kind of rejected that book. There was a kind of fear in his heart. He felt that the book would definitely affect something. Maybe it would ruin a peaceful life, maybe it would change the maharaja’s view of world affairs, or even, maybe it would take away his own possession at this time. everything of……
Thinking rationally, the book should not be so terrible. It is not a spell book. There is only history and stories in the book. There is no powerful force or spell.
In fact, the large analytic array has almost analyzed the book, but Burris is unwilling to release it easily. He always wanted to delay one more day or one day, and one more check was one point.
Anyway, Lot had a happy life every day, and he didn’t ask much about the book, so Naberis didn’t have to worry.
The days are so comfortable now, Burris wants to keep it.
On this day, Lot said that Count Hrolf had reached the stage of actual combat training, and he would take it to the mountains to practice tracking small animals.
Burris does not go to the forest or the attic. He has to go to Holly Village today.
Last night, the Constructed Titmouse sent him a letter written by someone from the spellcasting material store. The letter said that an unfamiliar elf tourist came to the village. He had been playing nearby for a few days, but he had a sudden illness in the past two days and couldn’t sleep in the tavern room.
According to the barmaid, the elf mentioned Burris Gelshaw in the chat. Everyone guessed that he might be an acquaintance of Burris, so this matter must be known to the wizard in time. Villagers would not easily enter the mountains, so Burris had to go to Holly Village to find out the situation.
After receiving the letter, Burris suspected that the fainted elf was Black Pine… Mentioning the words “elf” and “fainted”, he could only think of Black Pine. But it doesn’t seem to be right. Hei Song has been to Holly Village, his appearance is so conspicuous, and the villagers must remember him.
Therefore, Master Gershaw asked the “Apprentice Kreve” to represent himself and visit the unidentified elves in the village.
Before leaving, he gave orders to the house golems in advance to prepare them for washing Lott’s clothes and washing the dogs in advance.
Lot left at dawn, and Burris left in a carriage before noon.
After the carriage disappeared on the forest path, Count Herrolf sprang out of the forest behind the tower, and Lott strolled behind it leisurely.
The protection on the tower gate has no effect on Lot. He hummed a song and opened the door, asking the golem to help him call out the floating disc, all the way up to the highest level of the tower.
The door of the attic room is too strong, the four-way bolt lock is really troublesome. Despite this, Lot is still confident that he can open it. He is very knowledgeable, and it is not the first time he has picked a lock in the past seven days.
He brought a small toolbox with a lot of weird tools-Burris was no surprise at spending money on him, and every time he bought a bunch of things, Burris ignored it.
Lott took a deep breath.
Things in the attic seemed to be calling him.
It is eager to confide in him, confess to him, and confess all the secrets and joys to him.
