……

The Tin Woodman twisted his newly repaired neck and creaked.

His eyes swept over Ma Yun, Gao Fei and Jiang Feng one by one, paused for a while on the funny face of Weta the Scarecrow, and finally fell on the tree spirit Enya, his eyes were still so cold, without showing the slightest spark of love .

"Nick! The one I love the most, you finally woke up!"

Enya couldn't restrain her excitement, she threw herself into the Tin Woodman's arms with tears in her eyes, and hugged him tightly.

"Hello, Enya, we meet again." From the Tin Woodman's helmet came a muffled voice, "Although I don't understand why you are so excited that you shed tears on me, you know, Iron sheets are easily corroded by tears and rust."

"I didn't expect that, the tin woodman's words are quite humorous!"

Jiang Feng said to Gao Fei with a smile.

"But I don't think...he seems to be joking."

Goofy replied in a low voice.

Nick the Tin Woodman's cold attitude towards his lover reminds him of the curse of "indifference" he has suffered, which may be a big pit.

"It's rare for couples to meet again, so let's stop being light bulbs here."

Ma Yun gave Gao Fei and Jiang Feng a wink, and walked out of the forest, leaving a private space for Enya and Nick to confide in her heart.

Not long after, Enya walked out of the woods alone, with tears on her beautiful face and sorrow in her eyes.

"Enya, you seem to have something else on your mind?" Ma Yun asked the tree spirit.

"Hey, kind lady Mage, thank you for waking up Nick, but..." Enya hesitated to speak.

"But your lover seems to have a big change in personality, and his attitude towards you has also become cold, indifferent, and no longer the passion of love in the past?" Gao Fei spoke out for her.

Enya nodded, choked up and said: "It's not Nick's fault, it's all the fault of the old witch Ivanola! My poor lover, under the curse of Ivanola, has lost all emotions and has become like his As indifferent as a body of steel."

Goofy sighed.It seemed that what I was most worried about had happened.

Enya wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes, looked at Ma Yun with red eyes, and begged sadly: "Miss Mage, can you think of a way to help poor Nick lift the curse?"

"This……"

Ma Yun checked the main plot prompt she just received, and said to the sad tree spirit:
"Enya, I don't have the ability to lift the curse on Nick, but Master Oz in Emerald City may be able to do it. If you don't object, you can take Nick with us to Emerald City and seek help from Master Oz."

"Ms. Mage, I will let Nick accompany you to the Emerald City. As for myself, unfortunately, I cannot stay away from the oak tree that lives with me. I can only stay in this forest and look forward to your early return." Enya said sadly.

"That's the only way to go. Now let's talk to Nick."

Everyone returned to the forest, explained the next itinerary to Nick the Tin Woodman, and invited him to join the tour group to the Emerald City.

The Tin Woodman listened silently to Ma Yun's words, glanced at the reluctant Enya, and then nodded to accept Ma Yun's invitation.

System prompt: Nick "The Tin Woodman" has joined your team!
System prompt: Reach the story milestone of this chapter, the energy of the astrolabe +1!

……

When Ma Yun received the system prompt, she breathed a sigh of relief, and said to Gao Fei and Jiang Feng: "The main plot of this chapter has been completed, and it's getting dark. Let's camp in the forest and continue our journey tomorrow morning."

Gao Fei and Jiang Feng had no objections, so everyone took a long rest in the glade.

Scarecrow Weta has been looking at Nick the Tin Woodman curiously, and finally can't help but strike up a conversation.

"Hey! Dude, I heard you were also cursed by the old witch Ivanora?"

The Tin Woodman turned his head and glanced at him, and said coldly, "It seems so, I don't think there's anything interesting about it."

"Listen, man, I don't mean to gloat."

"But you are smiling very happily."

"That's because my face was drawn with charcoal. People drew such a smiling face on me, so I can only maintain this happy expression, even if I feel sad."

The Scarecrow shrugged.

"You said 'heart,' Scarecrow, do you have a heart?"

The Tin Woodman found an interesting subject.

"Heart?" Vita poked his chest. "I don't have a heart. In fact, I only have a bale of hay in my chest, just like my head."

"You are pitiful."

There was a rare sympathy in the Tin Woodman's eyes.

"Heart is not necessary in my opinion. What I care about is brain. Dude, do you have brains?" Vita asked the Tin Woodman.

"No, my head is empty." Nick touched his helmet, "but compared with the brain, I think the heart is more important. If Master Oz has to give these two things, I would rather have a heart. "

"Can you tell me the reason why you made this choice?" the scarecrow asked curiously.

"My iron legs, iron arms, and iron head are all attached to my body, and I move as easily as ever, but, my God! My heart is gone, so I lose all love for Enya, for yes I don't care if I don't marry her."

The Tin Woodman sighed, and went on:
"Throughout the years I've been in the woods, the loss of my brain has not prevented me from thinking, and yes, I've had enough time to think, to realize that my greatest loss was the loss of my heart."

"When I am in love, I am the happiest person in the world. A person without a heart does not know how to love, so I will go to Master Oz and ask him to give me a heart. If he gives me a heart, I will give you a heart." Go back to Enya and marry her."

"What you said makes sense." Vita said with a smile. "However, I would rather have brains, because a fool can't do things well even if he has a heart."

"I want a heart," insisted Nick, "because brains don't make you happy, and happiness is the most important thing in the world."
