Chapter 160 [The Imperial City] (two-in-one chapter)(1/2)
In the next few days, Chen Daolin lived in the Governor's Mansion and lived a very free life.
Governor Fritz was deeply impressed by Chen Daolin's great kindness, and the entire Governor's mansion naturally treated Brother Daling as an old man.
On the night when he was a disciple, Chen Daolin moved into a small building with exquisite decoration. More than a dozen young and smart male and female servants came to serve Chen Daolin's daily life and food. Fritz even sent people to send a lot of gifts, including food, clothing, food, housing and other things.
It is difficult to get the magician's equipment, even if the governor is afraid he doesn't have the ability. However, when Governor Fritz heard that Chen Daolin had a wolf warrior entourage, he immediately sent someone to send a set of high-quality warrior light armor and a set of long and short weapons - he is the governor of a province, holding military and political power, and it is just a piece of cake to get some high-quality weapons and armor in the army.
As for the magic potion that Chen Daolin needed, he even sent double the amount according to the list he gave. This made Chen Daolin feel very happy.
That night, I locked myself in the room and started fiddling with the magic potions.
The only thing that was upset with these servants sent from the Governor's Mansion was the little maid Xia Xia. Xia Xia looked at the attendants of the Governor's Mansion coldly with a disgusting expression on her face - the young little girl just naively thought that these guys were coming to steal her job.
Three days passed quickly.
After the first stage of the earth practice, Lucius, the governor's son, immediately came to pay homage to his teacher, thanking him very much.
As if he had changed his body, the depression in his eyebrows was swept away, and his whole body looked much more cheerful. After practicing the first stage of the earth-moving technique, he could freely let himself fly according to the spell. Although the flight height was only about one meter away from the ground, and the speed of advancing and retreating was not fast. However, he was trapped by mouth disease for many years and was finally able to cast magic. Lucius was already infinitely grateful and did not dare to ask for more.
Chen Daolin did not immediately teach him the second stage of earth practice: on the one hand, he, the teacher, has not yet practiced the second stage. On the second stage, to practice the second stage of earth practice, there is a prerequisite, that is, you must first open the eyes of the sky and be able to see through the essence of the natural things in the world.
Chen Daolin found this magic of opening the sky eye in the jade slip. Unfortunately, there are many Taoist theories and ways of cultivation. These are translated into Roland's words to teach Lucius, an authentic native, but it is a bit difficult.
After all, it would be really too embarrassing to let a Rolander understand what "Tao can be said to be extraordinary".
"Oh, I don't know how the old Taoist priest Dou Meng made these Taoist magics into druids and taught them to these natives."
Although there is nothing to teach Lucius for the time being, this disciple helped a lot when Chen Daolin tinkered with these magic potions.
Lucius has not been able to truly learn magic over the years, so he poured all his love for magic into magic potions. He is the governor of a province and is willing to devote himself to him. Although those famous magicians cannot teach him magic, they are still not stingy with books such as magic potions.
After years of study, even Chen Daolin, a real magician, was quite surprised after years of studying Lucius. Even in the process of preparing the wound medicine, Lucius put forward some amazing insights on the side, which made Chen Daolin admire him. He vaguely felt that in the magical pharmacy, this disciple's attainment was probably better than his half-baked magician: After all, Chen Daolin's magical knowledge was copied by Mrs. Shi Tou's memory, which was equivalent to memorizing various theoretical knowledge. In fact, it would take a long time to integrate it.
With this disciple working on his behalf, Chen Daolin's magic potions were studied more smoothly. The master and apprentice had to soak in the room almost every day to tinker with the potions.
What shocked Lucius was that his teacher actually took out a handwritten note on magic potion learning! This note was actually written by Du Wei. Such rare documents made Lucius cry and almost wanted to hold this note even when he was sleeping.
What surprised Lucius was that his teacher was indeed a genius. When studying various formulas of magic potions, his teacher could always come up with all kinds of ideas and novelty, but often very effective in operating.
In fact, Lucius didn't know that Chen Daolin just regarded magical pharmacy as a chemistry homework.
Soon, they lived in the Governor's Mansion for nearly half a month.
During this period, Chen Daolin lived a life like an old man, with clothes and food open and food open, and there were groups of servants serving him in front of others. It was the most free time he had in his life. He had a feeling of being happy and unwilling to leave.
Sometimes I can't help but think in my heart that even if I stay in the Governor's Mansion outside the East China Sea for a long time, it is good to be the governor's son's tutor, with food and drink, and everyone respects themselves. The powerful governor will also have a banquet every three or five days, with a very respectful and polite attitude.
Even if you stay here for a long time, it's pretty good.
The only thing that made Chen Daolin a little unhappy was Panning.
Although Governor Fritz had dispatched Panin and did not allow him to be responsible for the garrison of the Governor's Office, Panin still sent people to send gifts such as flowers to Barossa every day - of course these things would not be really delivered to the elves. They were often the ones who came, and Chen Daolin sent people to throw them into the garbage dump.
"It seems that guy really treats you as a forbidden manure." Lodell couldn't help but smile quietly at Barossa.
But Barossa didn't care at all, but smiled softly: "It's great."
Such a happy life as immortals finally came to an end after another month.
On this day, Governor Fritz invited Chen Daolin to come and told him something:
"Darling, there is one thing that really makes me wonder how to speak." Governor Fritz seemed a little embarrassed.
Chen Daolin has been eating and drinking people living in other people's houses these days, so he naturally has to be very polite to the financial owner, and then laughed and said, "Mr. Governor is joking. If you have any questions, please tell me."
"This is the thing. I didn't expect to meet a young genius magician like you, which would solve my child's trouble. So, in order to satisfy his wish, I asked someone to ask for a quota for an auditor in the Imperial Magic Academy. Although I was not a formal student of the Imperial Magic Academy, I just thought that the child would have the opportunity to study in the Imperial Magic Academy and be closer to the road to magic, which was also a comfort. But I didn't expect that God sent you to me. Now I think that with your teacher teaching me, I don't have to go to the Imperial Magic Academy. But..." Speaking of this, Governor Fritz looked a little embarrassed.
Chen Daolin smiled and said, "Governor General, you really don't have to worry. If you have any difficulties, please tell me."
"Yeah." The Governor nodded: "But the friend I asked at that time was a man of great status. If he didn't go now, it would be a bad person. Moreover... Lucius is already an adult. In the past, I made an agreement with an old friend of the imperial capital. This year, his daughter will be fifteen years old and is about to be held. At this time, according to the engagement, Lucius must go to the imperial capital to make up the marriage."
When Chen Daolin heard this, he nodded and said, "So, Lucius must go to the imperial capital?"
"I'm ashamed." Governor Fritz smiled bitterly: "At my position, my child's marriage is not so free. Fortunately, my old friend's daughter and Lucius have known each other since childhood, and the relationship between the two children is pretty good. Moreover, I thought that since it is imperative to get engaged in the imperial capital, I might as well go to the Magic Academy to meet a scene, so as not to lose faces on the face of the person I had entrusted to attend. After all, my friend took a lot of effort to get this place. If I don't go now, I'm afraid..."
Chen Daolin immediately smiled and said, "I understand, sir, you asked me to discuss this matter because you hope me..."
"I thought to myself, if Master Daling is not involved in anything else, I might as well go to the imperial capital with my child. I also have a house in the imperial capital, you can live there, and the child can ask you sooner or later... I just don't know..."
Chen Daolin sighed in his heart.
Although life in the East China Sea was very free, it seems that I could not escape the trip to the imperial capital.
"This is a coincidence. I was going to go to the imperial capital with Lucius."
"Oh?" Governor Fritz was a little surprised: "Master Darling, are you going to the imperial capital?"
Chen Daolin smiled slightly: "I really want to go to the Magic Union in the Imperial Capital to do something, and first of all, I want to assess the new magician level..."
Speaking of this, Governor Fritz immediately smiled and said, "Congratulations to Master Darling, it seems that your strength has a breakthrough again."
"Thank you." Chen Daolin continued without saying a word, "In addition, there are some private matters that we have to go to the imperial capital. Even if you don't look for me today, I will take the initiative to say goodbye to you in a few days. Since Lucius is also going to the imperial capital, it's just right that our master's fate can continue. Lucius is smart and studious, and I like him very much."
Governor Fritz was overjoyed and immediately smiled and said, "Since that's the case, that's the best! I'll make someone prepare and I'll send you to the imperial capital in a few days."
Chen Daolin returned to his residence and told Barossa, Xia Xia and others the news. The two girls were quite happy. Barossa was originally an alien among the elves and was extremely yearning for human civilization, especially a die-hard fan of the Tulip Family Workshop products. He was naturally extremely excited to be able to go to the center of the human world. As for Xia Xia, the little girl, who heard that she could go to the most prosperous big city on the mainland, was naturally cheering.
Only Chen Daolin himself seemed to have a faint expression.
Barossa was careful after all, and saw that Chen Daolin was not in high spirits. She walked to him and asked in a low voice: "Darling, you... don't seem to be happy."
"Because there is really nothing to be happy about." Chen Daolin said lightly: "What are the things that emperors have to look at? It's just that they are bigger than Shilok City, with more people and more lively."
Humph, I heard that the capital of the Roland Empire only has a population of one million, even if it is the Noble City of the World.
What's so strange about this? All the brothers with a population of tens of millions are tired of seeing it. What's so strange about the emperor?
"Darling." Barossa suddenly whispered: "If you don't want to go to the imperial capital... then we don't allow it. If you like to be in Hirok City, I will stay here with you and stay there, okay?"
Chen Daolin smiled lightly, touched the elf's pink cheeks, and said with a smile: "Silly, we live here so freely because of the warm hospitality of the governor. But when his son went to the imperial capital, if my teacher didn't go, he would stay here to continue eating, drinking and enjoying the happiness. Even if Governor Fritz doesn't care, I don't have such a thick-skinned face."
After a pause, Chen Daolin sighed: "Besides... I do have something to go to the imperial capital."
Barossa said curiously: "Huh? Do you have anything to leave in the Emperor?"
"Of course there are." Chen Daolin smiled bitterly: "And... I'm afraid it's not that easy to do."
He sighed secretly in his heart.
The trading conditions of that old monster Chris...ah...
...
In a few days, everything is ready and you will be on the road.
The group came out of the Governor's Mansion, and a large group of people came to the port pier, boarded the ship and left.
What made Chen Daolin feel a little regretful was that he would part with the girl Lodell.
In fact, Lodell really wanted to continue to follow Chen Daolin to the imperial capital.
But after all, the noise of her running away from home this time was too big. The Liszt family had sent people to her. Although they lived in the Governor's Mansion these days, the Liszt family's private army guards were closely guarded by the Liszt family's private army guards, for fear that the young lady who likes to cause trouble suddenly ran away again.
The two guys Luo Xiaogou and Kaman actually came with a mission. They were also entrusted by the elders of the Liszt family and would take the lady home intact no matter what.
Although I have been delaying and staying in the East China Sea for so long, this is already the limit. If I want to follow Chen Daolin to continue to run to the imperial capital, I am afraid that my subordinates will have to wipe their necks and give them a warning.
A captain of the guard sent by the family this time has already said to Lodell: The patriarch has an order. If you cannot bring you home, then my team of fifty guards can all apologize for death. If you have mercy on us, please don’t run away again. Otherwise, we will really have a way out.
Luo Xiaogou and Kaman also stared at Lodell all day long, never giving her a chance to run away.
When he parted with Lodell, the girl cried a lot, hugged Barossa and wiped her tears, and then said countless whispers in Barossa's ear, which made the elf girl blush and didn't dare to answer a word.
Finally, Lodell walked to Chen Daolin and looked up and down. Then the little girl suddenly stretched out her legs and kicked Chen Daolin's calves, and said fiercely: "Darling, you don't know when you will see each other again after you leave like this! You must treat Barossa well. If you dare to let her down, I will definitely not spare you!"
As he said that, the young lady went up and hugged Chen Daolin gently, then turned around and ran back to the carriage, refusing to come out again.
Luo Xiaogou and Kaman stood aside, looking a little disappointed. Although Chen Daolin has become a little tired and lazy these days, he is very refreshing and easy-going. Several young people get along well, drinking together, joking and scolding each other.
At this moment when we were about to part, Kaman walked over first, hugged Chen Daolin, and said, "I really can't bear to part with you. Lodell said it right. I don't know when we will see you again after we part."
As he said that, he touched his arms, took out a letter and handed it to Chen Daolin: "If you have Governor Fritz, a rich financial supporter, I won't give you any money. There are two letters here, written by Luo Xiaogou and I. At least we had a lot of time in the imperial capital, and we had many colleagues and friends in the Imperial Military Academy, and now we are in the imperial capital. A few of them are all men with very good temperaments! If you go to the imperial capital, if you have anything to deal with there... just go to them. We have written a letter, and you will go with our letter, and the other party will know that you are your own person and a good friend at first glance. Those guys are local snakes in the imperial capital. Although they may not be able to accomplish anything big, they can still give them some small things. Moreover, after you go, you are not familiar with the place and make friends from the imperial capital, it is also beneficial."
As he said that, Kaman stuffed the letter into Chen Daolin's hand and patted him on the shoulder hard.
Luo Xiaogou was a little duller. He walked over, but whispered in Chen Daolin's ear: "Darling, don't use your spell that doesn't require chanting spells in front of others. Remember to be careful. The emperor is no longer the same as other places, hides dragons and sneering tigers, pay attention to safety by yourself... If, if you encounter something big, just run to the Eastern Fortress to join me and the Fatty!"
The words these two friends said were sincere, and Chen Daolin could naturally feel the sincerity. Brother Daling couldn't help but feel a little sore in his nose. He took a deep breath and pounded them on their chests: "Since they are good friends, I won't say thank you! When we have the opportunity to get together again, we will drink it. Whoever doesn't drink it will be a bastard!"
Three young men hugged each other and said goodbye. Chen Daolin pulled Xia Xia with his left hand and Barossa with his right hand, and walked onto the big ship together.
On the shore, the fat man and Luo Xiaogou waved goodbye to him. As the boat gradually sailed away, they stood there quietly waiting and refused to leave. Until the boat gradually drifted away and disappeared on the sea, and even the shadow of the sail could not be seen, they finally sighed and turned around and left.
When they returned to the carriage, they saw Lodell sitting in the carriage, with his head exposed to the window, and he widened his eyes and looked at the sea. Lodell's eyes were red, and the tears on his face were not wiped away. When the two guys looked at it, their faces turned red.
Then Lodell glared at the two of them and said viciously: "What are you looking at!"
Then she curled her lips: "You two are enthusiastic, and they even wrote to him to introduce the friends of the imperial capital, for fear that he would not be familiar with the place and be bullied if he went to the imperial capital! I think it was all in vain. Darling was a bastard and cunning guy, so he would not be a person who suffered a loss. Besides... don't forget that he had a good relationship with the Duchess of Tulip. After going to the imperial capital, he was afraid that no one would protect him!"
...
When Chen Dao got on the ship, he couldn't help but sigh for Governor Fritz's big move.
This governor was so arrogant. He just sent his son and his tutor back to the mainland, and actually sent a Neptune-level battleship from the Imperial Navy!
To be continued...
