"This truth is too simple." Bingzhixie said: "Because only magicians can freely control all elements, and alchemy requires proficiency in using all elements. Other professions cannot do this. You learn in the palace
Magic, didn’t the palace tutor teach you?”
"I remember my previous teacher said it, but I forgot." Alice lowered her head in embarrassment.
After a while, all the food was served. After placing the food, the waiter asked: "Do you want to order a piece of music?"
In the middle of the restaurant, two musicians were playing melodious music on violins.
Bing Zhixie didn't understand music, so she didn't speak.
Alice is a person who likes music. She took ten silver coins and said: "Then order "Winter" from the Four Seasons Concerto."
"Okay, I'll go talk to the musician right now."
"Wait, I still want to ask." Alice said.
The waiter stood aside respectfully: "Excuse me."
Alice asked: "Where is the alchemy competition? I want to see it."
"Is this why you came to our city of Arant?" Alchemy is the pride of Arant, and some people come here because of its reputation. As a citizen of Arant, of course, I am very happy. The waiter said: "Every alchemy session
The competition starts on September 10th and ends on September 30th. If you want to watch it, you have to wait a few days."
Bingzhixie said: "Is a game going to take this long?"
The restaurant waiter said: "At this time of every competition, in addition to our alchemists near Arant, alchemists from all over the world will also come, because this is a rare opportunity for them. So many people want to compete, isn't it?
If one game can be completed, there will be three games, divided into preliminary rounds, semi-finals and finals. The preliminary and semi-finals are five days, and the warlocks are required to refine items that meet the requirements. The finals are ten days, and the finals are over.
In the future, if someone can pass, the final results will be ranked according to the quality of the things they made. The theme of this final is attack and destruction, which was decided during the last competition two years ago. There will definitely be many people making it.
A very powerful weapon."
"That's great, it turns out there is more than one competition." When she heard that there were three competitions in twenty days, Alice was the happiest person.
The waiter said: "You two are here to see Alchemy. You can stay in our hotel for a few more days. Our hotel will provide you with very high-quality services. If you need to visit the city, there is a special tour guide in the hotel who can take you two."
A bit of fun.”
"That's very thoughtful," Alice said happily.
"Thank you. Do you need anything else?" the waiter asked.
"No need." Bing Zhixie gave a tip of five or six silver coins and put it on the tray.
The waiter seemed a little unhappy when he saw that he had talked so much but received such a small tip. Fortunately, he said: "Thank you, please take your time." and left.
Alice covered her mouth and said with a smile: "Master, why don't you give me a bigger tip? You see he serves so well?"
"No." Bing Zhixie ate the mutton chops and said, "I only have so much change on me."
Alice said: "Then can't you give me a gold coin?"
Bing Zhixie felt strange: "Why do you have to give so much?"
Just as he was talking, a burst of laughter and applause came from a table behind Bing Zhixie. A bartender was showing off his superb bartending skills to the guests at this table. A man dressed as a rich man immediately threw it away happily.
I tipped the bartender several gold coins.
Bing Zhixie turned around and sweated: "Every silver coin I have is earned by my own ability. Such things are done by the nouveau riche."
Alice smiled and said: "I didn't ask Master to be like him, but if we tip enough to make others happy, wouldn't we also get better service?" After that, she waved and shouted: "waiter
.”
The waiter from before came over again: "Do you need anything, guest?"
Alice said: "Can you bring us two more glasses of wine?"
"Of course, please wait a moment." Soon the waiter came over with two glasses of wine.
Alice put a gold coin on his tray: "Thank you for your service, it's really good."
"Oh, thank you. I'm honored to be praised by customers." The waiter walked away politely.
Alice said: "Master, look how happy he is."
Bingzhixiehan said: "Of course he will be happy if you give him money."
Alice stared at Bing Zhixie for a long time.
"What are you looking at?" Bingzhixie said.
Alice said: "Master, your character is really strange."
"Oh? Is it strange?"
Alice nodded: "Yeah. But Alice knows that Master is a good person, and he actually cares about other people's feelings, but he just doesn't want to show this feeling. Master, you have always been protecting yourself, but now Master
It’s better than when I first met Master.”
Bing Zhixie chuckled: "Disciple is talking about Master's character. Let's eat."
"Okay, no more." Alice tasted the dessert she ordered.
After a while, Alice suddenly said: "By the way, Master, you... where is the purse you took from that guy?"
"Here." Bing Zhixie took it out of his pocket and put it on the table.
"Look how much money is inside." Alice opened the bag with a wicked smile and was stunned for a moment.
"Huh?" Bing Zhixie wiped her mouth, took a sip of vegetable juice and looked at her.
Alice was surprised and took out a thick stack of gold scrolls from the bag and grabbed it in her hand: "Wow, Master, look, there is so much money."
Under the reflection of the sun, the stack of yellow, smooth and flexible gold scrolls reflected the golden light. The guests at the surrounding tables stared at the stack of gold scrolls with wide eyes, and even the waiter who was serving was dumbfounded.
In fact, this stack of gold scrolls is not very many, only about thirty pieces, each worth ten thousand gold coins, which is about three hundred thousand gold coins. But it must actually be holding such a thick stack of gold scrolls in his hand.
This feeling can be very different from a few numbers on a bank account.
Bing Zhixie saw the strange looks in the eyes of the people around her, glared at Alice and said, "Don't attract too much attention, you will get into trouble."
"Oh." Alice hurriedly put the gold scroll into her pocket, and took out some scattered gold coins, silver coins and gems from the money bag: "Master, this guy must have cheated me of this money again."
"so what?"
"Then we don't have to pay him back." Alice whispered: "It's not easy for Master to make some money. Doing tasks is risky and a waste of time. Anyway, his money was cheated and we stole it.
We might as well use it ourselves."
Bing Zhixie didn't speak, but after a while she said: "Eat quickly, and leave here as soon as you're done. Others are looking at us."
