Looking at the black hole in front of him, Angelet's mind moved and he actively controlled the magnification of the chip to slowly shrink back and away.
The black hole quickly shrank in the field of vision and turned into a small black dot, which was soon submerged into countless black diamond rhombuses.
'The chip returns to normal, system operation resumes...Unknown troubleshooting.'
Angelet closed his eyes and opened them again, his eyes completely restored to normal vision. The black powder contained in the glass plate was still quietly and evenly sprinkled on the plate. The bright yellow candlelight slowly swayed, and his own shadow was on his right hand.
The side is shaking slightly.
call....
Angelet took a deep breath, pushed away his seat, stood up, carefully covered the glass plate with a lid, then put it away and put it back in the freezer.
"Finally, I have made a new discovery..." Standing in front of the window, facing the cold evening breeze, Angelet finally got a hint of guidance on the direction he had been worrying about.
squeak....
Suddenly, the door behind him slowly opened automatically, revealing the dark corridor outside. It was as if someone had opened it with hands, and there was no trace of wind at all.
A woman in a white dress walked slowly outside the door and then disappeared into the darkness.
Angelet looked back. "Are you here again?" After so many years of living, he was almost used to this sudden and strange phenomenon.
Only when he was living with Weiwei, he would put the stone wall murals into the space mirror to prevent weird phenomena. At other times, he would let them produce weird things freely. Then he would continue to study the details to pursue clues.
beep....
Suddenly, a loud sound similar to that of a human child came out of the window. From low to high, one after another.
"The call of the dodo...it's almost dawn..." Angelet ignored the door behind him and looked at the black night sky outside the window. "It's dawn...it's time to go to Weiwei's place
Already."
He put the freezer box into the space mirror, turned and walked towards the door, and took off the black cotton coat from the hanger beside the door.
The coat was almost as big as a cloak, with a ring of white fluff around the neck. Putting on the coat, he took out black leather gloves from his pocket and put them on, and Angelet closed the door with his backhand.
Bang.
The candles in the study flickered out instantly.
Walking in the dark corridor, Angele kept making creaking sounds of wooden boards under his feet, and some places were so old that cracks were exposed.
As I walked down the stairs, the clear echoes in the quiet building became even more harsh and penetrating.
Angelet tightened his fur collar with a calm expression, walked quickly to the door of the living room on the first floor, and gently opened the door.
boom!
The dilapidated wooden door collapsed to the ground.
Angelet was stunned for a moment. "It's broken again?" Shaking his head, he strode out of the door, ignoring the broken wooden door of the small wooden building.
The figure walked into the dense forest and soon disappeared completely into the darkness.
************************
"Ms. Weiwei, are your flowers ready today?"
Outside a small double-story building with red walls in the town, a young boy driving a gray ox cart was shouting towards the building.
The sky was still dark and not bright. There was only the constant beeping of the dodo in the distance. A few fat women who happened to be passing by on the street were laughing with their shopping baskets, adding a bit of popularity to the quietness of the early morning.
.
Inside the fence of the small building, a young woman with fair skin was bending down to carefully pick flowers from the flower garden.
The woman was wearing a white silk waist dress. The surface of the cheongsam-like skirt reflected the shiny silk light. Her long, shiny black hair was tied up, leaving only two strands hanging on her shoulders.
Under the subtle light in the sky, the woman's towering breasts and slender waist were extremely obvious when she bent over. A pair of exposed slender legs also reflected a faint white phosphorus-like fluorescence, like ivory jade.
This woman is Weiwei, who has lived in the town for hundreds of years. She also dyed her hair black. She has become a standard kingdom blood, native appearance. Perhaps because of growing flowers, Weiwei's cold temperament has softened.
a lot of.
Hearing the question from the little boy outside, Weiwei straightened up and put the red roses in her hands into the trolley beside her. "It's almost ready, little Ram, you still came so early. Have you had breakfast?"
I have your favorite muffins here."
Weiwei pushed the float to the iron gate, opened the door and pushed the float out.
The little boy on the bullock cart was dressed in gray coarse linen clothes and looked a little stunned. With short brown hair and somewhat blushing cheeks, the little boy Ram did not dare to look directly at Weiwei's face, and just lowered his face.
"Madam, your flowers are so good. If you don't come early, you won't be able to get them..." Little Ram replied hesitantly.
Weiwei pushed the float behind the bullock cart a few times, and little Ram also got down and pushed it up together. Little Ram took out a stack of small notes from the pocket of his dusty clothes, took out a note and pasted it on
On this float, it is considered a label.
The two of them patted the dust on their hands. "Okay, madam, I have to go to the next house to collect flowers." Little Ram rubbed his hands to try to keep himself warm.
"This is for you." Weiwei took out a small khaki paper bag from nowhere and stuffed it into the boy's arms. There was a faint sweet smell of hot pancakes inside.
Little Ram was about to refuse, but when he smelled the aroma, his stomach suddenly growled, and he lowered his head with a red face. "Thank you, ma'am..."
"Okay, let's go, kid." Weiwei pinched little Ram's face and smiled.
Little Ram nodded, turned around and walked towards the driver's seat of the bullock cart. Suddenly he seemed to remember something. He turned back and looked at Weiwei. He didn't dare to look at Weiwei's face, but lowered his eyes to look at Weiwei's brown deer boots.
"By the way, Ms. Weiwei, do you know that ghost building in the east of the town?"
"Ghost building? You mean the dilapidated wooden building in the dense forest halfway up the mountain?" Weiwei hesitated for a moment, and immediately knew what place he was talking about, with a strange look in her eyes. "You know? What's wrong?
?”
Little Ram lowered his voice mysteriously. "Remember to go there and don't get close. I heard that there is a strange man living there. He wears a black coat all day long and walks silently. Everyone in the town suspects that he is a wizard."
....”
"Oh? Wizard...it's unlikely. Aren't all wizards wiped out by the kingdom's knight army?" Weiwei asked with a smile.
"I don't know, but you'd better not get close there. I heard my grandfather say that few people who enter that small building can come out alive. Most of them are missing." Little Ram whispered mysteriously,
"Okay, I'm going to collect the flowers first. See you in the evening!"
"See you in the evening." Weiwei smiled and nodded, "Thank you for your advice."
"My pleasure." Little Ram quickly performed a strange knight's salute, put his hand on his left chest and bent down, making Weiwei chuckle.
Well~~~
Amidst Little Ram's shouts, the oxcart slowly drove into the dimly lit street and disappeared into the white morning mist.
Weiwei stood at the door, watching the bullock cart disappear, and then looked to the dark corner on the left.
A black figure slowly walked out of the corner. He was tall and had waist-length dark red hair. He was only wearing a round black hat. His face could not be seen clearly. He could only see a small black beard on his fair chin.
The figure took off his hat, revealing Angelet's smiling face.
"Need help?"
"Of course." Weiwei smiled and stretched out her hand, "Bring it what I want."
Angelet opened his coat, took out a lavender solution test tube from the pouch hanging on his waist, and threw it away. "This is a month's supply, enough to use for all the species in the garden."
Weiwei gently caught the test tube, put it in front of her eyes and looked at it: "Yes, I must have found good materials this time. It is rare to prepare such a high quality."
"It's okay, okay, I have to go to the shop to open it. See you at noon." Angelet waved his hand, turned and walked into the shadows.
"See you at noon." Weiwei shook the test tube, took the purple solution, turned around and entered the iron fence, and disappeared among the flowers.
Angelet walked slowly on the street, and the white breath coming out of his mouth was almost indistinguishable from the white mist. There were only a few shadows of milk delivery boys on the deserted street.
Crossing two streets and walking all the way to the southernmost part of the town, among a row of old and uneven houses, there was a faint yellow light coming from several windows.
Between the gray wooden houses and earthen houses, on the twists and turns of the loess streets, a vendor carrying cream tea was shouting loudly.
‘Dupont cream tea!! Five copper coins a portion!!’
The hawker's voice was hoarse, and it sounded far away in the foggy morning sky.
Angelet went up and bought a cream tea. He put it in a cup made of a large green leaf and took a sip. The aroma of hot cream mixed with the sweetness of apples poured into his mouth, which was very similar to what he had tasted before.
The feeling of milk tea.
Walking along the street to the end, Angelet stopped in front of a small shop on the left.
On the right side of the store is a small river with rushing water, and on the left is a grocery store. Gray-brown wooden boards in the form of vertical strips block the store door tightly.
Angelet drank the cream tea in one gulp, threw away the leaf cup, and after a few moves, he moved the brown wooden boards blocking the door to the sides.
The exposed store furnishings are very simple.
There is an arched mahogany counter, and the wall behind it is an empty white wall cabinet, which is divided into horizontal partitions. There is nothing in the partitions, it is empty.
Angelet turned over and jumped behind the counter, pulled out a black wooden folding bed from underneath, flattened it a few times, half sat and half lay on it. Then he started to take out small things from the locked door under the counter.
There were square stickers similar to dog skin plasters, glass vials containing yellow powder, some dried flowers and plants, and even some colorful rough badges and beads. There were also some random things.
