After the Legend Chapter 50: A new journey


It was An Long who was standing in the hall. His skin was dark, and he was a little thin. His face was tired, but he had a smile on his face. Ming Na rushed over and hugged his waist, but her heart felt sour, and she couldn't help crying: "Dad, I miss you so much..."

"Dad misses you too..." Anlong hugged the child, his eyes were red, and he gently stroked Ming Na's head, the guilt in his heart welled up like a tide.

After a while, he let go of his daughter, looked up and down carefully, and was very happy: "My little Mingna has grown taller, half a head taller than last year, and she is much fairer. , more and more beautiful."

Ming Na smirked and suddenly remembered: "Dad, where is mom? Why don't you see mom?"

An Long paused and smiled: "Dad only has half a month's vacation, and he came here on a fast horse. How can your mother bear it? So take a boat with Winnie and walk slowly, in a few days. to get there."

Ming Na felt that something was wrong, but when she thought of meeting her mother, she didn't ask more: "Is it only half a month? That's a rush. I'll go pack my things right away." After that, she decided to go upstairs .

An Long hurriedly stopped her, hesitated for a moment, and said, "Ming Na, you don't need to pack up. Dad has to rush back as soon as possible. You don't have to follow me."

Ming Na was puzzled, but quickly thought of the answer: "I see, Dad wants me to go back with Mom, right? No problem!"

"No..." Anlong hesitated for a long time before he said, "Dad is thinking, you don't want to go back with us for the time being, stay in the magic capital, and study here for a few years."

"Why?!" Ming Na was taken aback, and then she felt aggrieved, "I want to be with Mom and Dad. I haven't seen you for more than a year, why didn't you let me go back?!" She had a sour nose and circles under her eyes red again.

An Long hurriedly coaxed her and said, "Ming Na, listen to me, we used to live in Edun and there was no school nearby, so only your mother taught you something, but you never read it seriously. Book. You are seven years old this year. You can no longer play all day like before. You should learn something. Your big brother has entered the Knight Academy, and the big sister has passed the magic apprentice exam. My cousin also went to Ito Elementary School of Magic. Mom and Dad don't ask you to be better than them, but at least you should learn something useful. You are now in the magic capital, which is a good opportunity."

It was the first time that Ming Na heard about the cousins: "The lady in the hall is only three years older than me, is she already a magic apprentice?" After thinking about it, she was a little frustrated: "Actually, Professor Sauron is also called I went to take the test, but the examiner said I was young and my magic power was low, so they wouldn't let me pass."

An Long smiled and said, "How can the exams in Ito be compared with those in the Magic City? There are so many talented people here, and the exams are definitely not easy to pass. In fact, you can really learn something here."

Xiao Tianjian, who had been left to the side for a long time, also interjected at this time: "I heard from the manager of the business just now that you are studying potions with Sauron, aren't you? In fact, he is also good at being a potionist. ."

Minna pouted: "I didn't learn from him. He treats me as a coolie now. I've been cutting branches and leaves with him for two months." She glanced at Grandpa, although he Dad brought it, but she was still a little angry because he caused her to suffer from Sauron!

Xiao Tianjian touched his nose and said nothing.

An Long looked at her daughter disapprovingly: "Ming Na, you can't be rude to grandpa." Ming Na stuck out her tongue and obediently responded, but the meaning in her eyes obviously didn't take it seriously. . Anlong glanced at his father with a wry smile, turned his head and said to his daughter: "I have discussed it with your mother, your grandmother used to study here, and you have studied here for a few years, whether it is learning magic or potions. , lay a solid foundation, and when you go back to Ito to go to school, you will not be afraid of not being able to keep up with your homework."

Ming Na twisted and refused to agree, but her father nodded, reluctantly. Seeing his little granddaughter's grievance, Xiao Tianjian said, "Alright, alright, although your father is busy with work and can't come to see you often, but your mother can come and live with you, much better than before."

Ming Na thought about it too, she turned her face with a smile and showed it to her father: "Dad, let me tell you, I know a lot of things now, I can cook several kinds of potions, I can look at the stars, and recognize many plants. After walking through many places, I still cook by myself." She suddenly remembered that it was time for dinner, and exclaimed: "Dad, you and grandpa haven't eaten yet? I'll do it right now, I don't need a magic circle now. You can also make delicious broth!" Before Anlong could figure out the connection between the magic circle and broth, she went to the kitchen.

An Long watched her daughter ping and pong in the kitchen, and somehow felt a touch of emotion in her heart. Xiao Tianjian stood quietly behind him and asked softly, "Have you figured it out? Are you really going to do this?"

An Long didn't look back: "I've thought about it very clearly. Father, maybe I had my own selfishness when I took on this task, but now the more I know the truth, the more I can't give up. That is My country, for which I swore to bleed to the last drop, I can't watch those people destroy it and do nothing."

"Even if you don't do it, there are others, so why should you take this risk?" Xiao Tianjian couldn't understand, maybe asking him to sacrifice for his motherland in that world, he wouldn't back down, but for Eastman, he But thought it was not worth it. Moreover, he has another concern: "Since the son of Yuri's family died, the Heda family has been vigilant, and all evidence and traces have been erased. You are my son, and it is difficult for them to believe your Is it necessary for you to leave your wife and children behind for a plan that is likely to fail?"

"If everyone doesn't do it, no one will do it." Anlong smiled slightly, "What's more, I didn't leave them behind, I just separated from them temporarily for their safety. There is a well-planned plan, and even if it takes a long time, there will always be a day of success. Since I went to the Capital Knights, I have already made a lot of credit for the department. When this task is completed, I will not need to do any more action Staff, when the time comes to reunite as a family, our good days are long."

Xiao Tianjian sighed and gave up the fifty-third persuasion: "I understand, I will help take care of the child, but you have to promise me, be careful, the armor I give you is yours Be sure to wear it on your body, and carry your sword with you. I'll ask someone from the business to help you."

Anlong looked back at him gratefully: "Thank you, father, I know you are thinking about me, but it's better not to let too many people know about this kind of thing. Please believe me, the fastest one year , at the latest three years, I will definitely have enough evidence to bring the traitor to justice."

======================I am the dividing line where time flies =================== ===

Two years later.

In the evening of summer, the sun has slightly reduced the heat, and Minna walked briskly on her way home, humming an out-of-tune tune. She was wearing a local popular white gauze skirt and a small vest, and her long hair was loosely tied into two pigtails, just like the little girl in Shaonan.

She is nine years old this year. Compared with two years ago, she is a whole head taller, almost reaching her grandfather's chest. I don't know if it was because her mother urged her to develop the habit of drinking milk every day, and because she often walked between the top and the bottom of the mountain, she obviously grew taller and faster than girls of the same age.

She is currently a second-year student at the elementary school in the Western Civilian District of the Magic City. Like other students, she studies common subjects such as common language, history, astronomy, geography, arithmetic, and art. Because the school was part-time, in the afternoons she would go to Potions Master Sauron to learn the basics of potions. After a full year of magic material handling and half a year of training in mixing skills and heat, she finally started her study of potion preparation eight months ago.

However, each formula needs to be practiced for ten days and a half months, not only to understand the principle of the action of each material, but also to ensure that the preparation process does not go wrong, and the efficacy of the drug must be optimal, even in the After she had completed all these requirements, Sauron would also ask her what would happen if one or two of the materials were changed, or what would be the consequences of making a mistake in the program. In short, every time she learns a formula, she will feel like a master too.

The most terrifying thing is that Sauron asked her to learn different recipes of the same potion. For example, she has already learned how to cook four kinds of cold potions, and is going to learn the fifth one tomorrow. Before that, she has learned three kinds of scabies. How to prepare the medicine.

Minna thought of this, raised her hand to look at the tips of her fingers that had been blackened from the potion for a long time, and her mood dropped. It took two years to learn less than ten potions. When will she finish learning? She couldn't help sighing when she thought of the old magician Sennett who had persuaded herself to learn from Sauron when she went to the magic capital to purchase materials the year before. If he hadn't said that, and if her grandfather, father and mother also urged her to study, she would have backed away long ago.

That Sauron, who has known her for so long, is still the same stinky temperament, who often calls her an idiot and that what she made is not worthy of being called a potion. In fact, she knew that he had always been very proud of him because he had taught the stupid students that Sennett didn't teach into his right-hand man (she handled the materials he used to make potions in the past two years).

As she walked, she turned into the commercial street, and looked around boredly, when she suddenly saw a large gauze in the window of the clothing store next to her. The pattern was exactly her mother Dora's favorite. That kind of thing, remembering that it was less than a month before my mother's birthday this year, she went into the store and bought a scarf, and picked out an exquisite water lotus brooch. The aroma makes people feel calm and happy.

In the past two years, Dora has come to her daughter's side a lot, and the longest stay was more than three months. Because the house was not big enough, Dora even rented the small building where Mingna's grandmother lived and took her daughter to live there. Maybe it was because she wanted to make up for her daughter's relationship. In addition to caring about Ming Na very much in food, clothing, housing, and transportation, she didn't have to beat or scold her anymore. The mother and daughter got along very closely. However, even so, she couldn't help worrying about her husband. She always accompanied her daughter for a month or two, and ran back to Ito with Winnie.

To be honest, Ming Na doesn't understand what happened to her parents. She clearly loves each other and cares about each other, but she always quarrels. Every time her father is angry with her, she goes back to her parents' house, but after a while, her mother Still can't help but go back to Ito again, so things go into a vicious circle again.

I don't know if buying a cool fragrance brooch will make mom and dad calm down?

Thinking of this, Minna picked out another knight's cape brooch, the same type as the water lotus brooch, and asked the clerk to pack the three items, pay for them, walk out of the store, and put them in before anyone was prepared. Storage bracelet.

This is a work completed by alchemist Hanlin half a year later than originally planned. The simple golden vine is dotted with three small amethysts, which can change in size according to the thickness of the owner's wrist. Although the storage space is only about two cubic meters, it is enough for Minna.

She walked to the Xiao family merchants on the corner of the street, intending to let them help with a ride, but when she passed the weapons store, she caught a glimpse of a familiar figure: "Happy?! Why are you here? Your mother didn't say no. Did you come here again?" It was the boy who met by chance on the way to the Magic City.

Happy was about to sneak into the store when she was startled, he hurriedly shushed several times, looked around, and dragged her into the alley next to the store. Ming Na was almost dragged down by him and asked inexplicably, "What are you doing? You are sneaking."

Happy hissed a few more times, looked out, and quickly shrank back: "Idiot! Are you going to kill me? I sneaked out when my mother was talking to the tailor, and let her find out. Too bad."

Ming Na learned from him to look out, and she saw his mother's round face looking out at the door of the tailor shop, she hurriedly retracted and smiled and said, "You deserve it! Who told you to sneak away? I heard that you failed the exam again this time. If it goes on like this, you will be expelled from school!"

Happy waved his hand nonchalantly: "I didn't want to be a magician in the first place, I dropped out of school, and then I can go to learn swordsmanship." He rolled up his sleeves, revealing the small muscles on his arms: "Look, I'm much stronger now."

"Let's talk when you find a swordsman teacher who is willing to teach you." Ming Na poured cold water on him, he was immediately discouraged, but soon looked at her with hopeful eyes: "Ming Na, your grandfather is not A big hero, a big master? Can you help me talk to me and let him teach me a few tricks? No need, just a few tricks."

Ming Na said embarrassingly, "My grandfather left the house and hasn't come back, and he never accepts students." Even if he accepts students, he may not have the heart to teach. Having lived a stable life for the past two years, she can see her grandfather's true colors. When he has nothing to do, he sleeps until he wakes up naturally every day, eats and drinks when he wakes up, or walks around, or finds friends, or goes to the tavern for a drink or two. In addition to being younger, agile and capable , With a bigger reputation, he is no different from the usual grandpa and Abo. And because Ming Na had to go to school and learn potions every day, he simply stopped teaching her swordsmanship now, and at most reminded her to practice when she had time.

Happy lowered his head in disappointment, rolled his eyes a few times, and had another idea: "Why not..." As soon as he started talking, there was a stern shout from the alley: "Stinky boy! You really ran away. Here we come!" It turned out that his mother was here. Happy jumped up in fright: "Damn!" He hurriedly dropped a "goodbye", turned and ran away.

Seeing Happy's mother rushing over, Ming Na hurriedly turned around and pretended to be a passerby. When she chased after her, she hurried to the alley. In order to prevent her from venting her anger for not being able to catch up with her son, Ming Na quickly went to the Xiao family branch, handed in the gift, and ran back home.

Entering the house, Minna cast a cleaning spell on the sweeping turtles and rag bats on the ground before putting them away. Looking at the situation in the house, I knew that my grandfather Xiao Tianjian had not come back. She sighed and prepared her own dinner. She was used to this kind of life.

After dinner, she came to the study to do her homework. Today, only geography and history have homework. She finished it in a short time. She reviewed her knowledge of potions again, and was about to go back to her room to sleep when she heard the door open downstairs. She was overjoyed, ran out of the room and went downstairs, shouting, "Grandpa, are you back?"

Xiao Tianjian took off his old boots, walked barefoot to the sofa, stretched out and lay down, saying, "I'm back, how are you at home these few days? Are you good?"

"Of course I'm good, I clean every day." Ming Na leaned over to smell it, pinched her nose and waved her hand to fan, "It smells bad! Grandpa is going to take a shower!"

Xiao Tianjian went to the bathroom with a smile, and shouted as he walked, "Let's make some late-night snacks for grandpa, I'm starving, and I didn't eat anything good on the way. The wind and sand in Weisha are getting bigger and bigger. It's almost being blown away..."

By the time he washed it out, Minna had already warmed up the leftover veal stew and vegetable soup from today. Xiao Tianjian devoured it for a while, then slowly picked his teeth and asked, "How has your study been recently? Did Sauron scold you?"

"It's been fine lately, I'm used to it anyway." Ming Na stretched out her ten fingers, "I've been boiling cold medicine non-stop for the past few days. Grandpa, look, my fingers are all stained black."

Xiao Tianjian carefully looked at his little granddaughter's fingertips and frowned: "It won't be poisoned, right? It's a three-point poison, and those things are not so safe." He regretted it a little, although the potionist was quite safe A promising career, but it's not a good thing for a little girl to deal with herbs and animal parts all day.

Ming Na heard it funny: "Grandpa, I won't be poisoned, it's just stained with the concoction." She drank the potion for a whole month, and the ordinary poison was ineffective for her, not to mention What she made was just a very ordinary potion~IndoMTL.com~ but Xiao Tianjian was still a little worried. After thinking about it, he asked: "Your mother hasn't been here for six months, right?" Ming Na nodded: "Dad wrote to me, They quarreled again, and my mother ran back to my grandfather's house. I really don't understand why they keep arguing? Besides, my mother left Idong, why didn't she come to me?"

Xiao Tianjian smiled: "Silly boy, you have studied geography. From Yidong to Matt Harbor, it only takes five or six days to travel by water, and if you ride a fast horse and travel by land, you can get there in three days. If your father wants to go there. It's very convenient to pick up your mother, or if your mother wants to find your father, but if your mother is here, it will take a long time."

Ming Na thought about it, smiled and said, "So, in fact, my mother wanted to make peace with my father more easily, so she didn't come to me? It's really troublesome, why do adults like to quarrel so much? Be reconciled."

Xiao Tianjian smiled without saying a word. Suddenly, he remembered that there was only one year left for the time that Anlong had agreed with him. From the news from the firm, things seemed to be going well, maybe they could be successful ahead of time, so Then he said to his granddaughter: "Ming Na, your semester is almost over, right? Do you want to see your parents?"

Ming Na blinked her eyes and was overjoyed. She hurriedly got close to her grandfather, but heard him say, "Let's go on a trip again? Go along the river to Ini and Port Doro." She gave her grandpa a disappointed look, and then Turn around and ignore him.

Xiao Tianjian chuckled and said, "Then let's start from Doro Port, go north along the coast, go to Matt Harbor to see your mother and grandfather, and then go to Yidong with your mother to find your father, okay?"

Minna turns around excitedly and lunges at him.

(Why can't I write it in 4K recently? I didn't plan to write so many...)
