My Homestay connects to another world
Chapter 5
The bookstore is not small, but there are only two rows of bookshelves, and there is only a counter where the owner is.
There were maps on the counter, and Xie Cheng saw that the name on one of the maps was "Sunset Forest".
"One first-level crystal nucleus or one gold coin can read books for two hours, and a complete map of the sunset forest costs 10 gold coins. The price of the map near the town varies from five silver coins to one crystal coin depending on the size." The shopkeeper who spoke He looked about 40 years old, and his long hair mixed with white hair was well-groomed and fell on the gray-white robe. He just looked up at Xie Cheng, and then continued to look down at a thick book in his hand.
Xie Cheng took out the only first-level crystal nucleus in his body, and he thought to himself, "Reading in this world is much more expensive than eating."
While he was hesitating, a middle-aged man wearing a black robe and a mysterious pattern walked into the shop, glanced at Xie Cheng with a haughty expression, and looked away disdainfully when he found that Xie Cheng didn't have any badges or signs on him , frowning and put down a first-level crystal nucleus on the shopkeeper's counter.
"Master Barlow, good afternoon." The shopkeeper put down the book and greeted the mage. The mage nodded, took another look at Xie Cheng, who was still there, and picked up a book on the shelf to read with a soft snort.
Xie Cheng ignored the mage's gaze, and stepped forward to put a crystal nucleus on the counter.
It may be because there are very few adventurers who are willing to spend crystal cores to read books, so the shopkeeper instructed, "The books are not sold in the shop, please read carefully, and you can also view the map."
"Thank you for reminding me, can I look at the map now?" The owner of the store behaved politely and elegantly, and his words were soft and serious, making Xie Cheng feel like a teacher who went to the library at school, and his tone of voice softened accordingly.
"Yes", the shopkeeper nodded and then took the map to the counter and placed it in order.
There are ten maps. The two largest maps are slightly larger than A3 paper. One is the whole picture of the sunset forest, which is drawn very finely.
The other one is the whole picture of the mainland, which is not drawn very carefully. It can only be seen that the five forces have divided the continent, and the rest of the area is roughly surrounded by the Warcraft Forest, Sunset Forest, Beast Race Grassland, etc., which are beyond the land. The position of the scope is painted with ripples to represent the sea area.
The remaining maps are of different sizes, and the smallest map is a detailed map of such a small town.The other small maps are detailed pictures of different locations in the Sunset Forest. Among them, there is only one town map, which shows the main border city of the Kyle Empire near the Sunset Forest.
Xie Cheng quickly read the map, and in the rest of the time he had to browse other books in the store, time was tight.
From the name, these books can be divided into three categories. The history category includes the chronicles of the mainland, the history books of the Kyle Empire, and the history books of other countries in the mainland many years ago. The second category is books related to monsters, magic plants, magic potions, and weapons. There are only two books.
The last type of book Xie Cheng found from a corner. The book records the poems of troubadours and the songs of elves. The poems are beautiful and elegant, full of sacred and romantic natural atmosphere, and people can feel the elves’ love for them without visiting them in person. Love of forests and nature.
However, these books are almost brand new, and it seems that no one comes to read them.
Xie Cheng also only read two pages. He regretted putting down the book in his hand and picked up a thick "Mainland Chronicle" to read carefully.
Two hours passed quickly, and the shopkeeper lit the candle lamp, and the flickering flames cast light yellow light that was soft and not dazzling, making Xie Cheng think for a moment that he had returned to his childhood, when there were frequent power outages in the small mountain village, and every time there was a power outage, his home would be Light a candle like this.
Xie Cheng walked out of the bookstore, and the sky was covered by dim clouds outside the house, the sky transitioned from azure blue to orange red, and it was clearly reflected in Xie Cheng's eyes.
On the way back to the tavern, he thought that the inside pages of the books he saw today were made of light and soft animal skins, and the text could also be seen to be handwritten. All signs indicated that there was no paper and printing in this world.
Xie Cheng thought: "If I really want to stay in this world forever, then this is a good way to make money."
After returning to the tavern for a simple dinner, Xie Cheng put all his belongings in the package, and Xing Chenhua was placed by his pillow.
This is the seventh day since he came to this world, Xing Chenhua has been very active today, and may be able to go home soon.
Before going to bed, he recalled the book he read in the afternoon. More than 3 years have passed since the emergence of human civilization in this magical world. Before that, the land was dominated by gods, elves, giant dragons and other long-lived species.
After the war of the gods, the gods disappeared, and the immortal species was far away from the core of the mainland. Human beings developed rapidly on this fertile land, and now the land is under the control of the three major empires. Warriors who master elemental swordsmanship are common combat powers among human beings. Magicians They are rare and powerful, and they are talents that the empires are vying to win over.
As for the places where magic can be learned, except for the apprentices accepted by the magic masters, the only way to study is to enter the four best academies on the mainland. They are respectively in the main cities of the three empires and the four magic academies established in the temple.
The temple contains the beliefs of all the gods of the light camp. They are all over the entire continent, and even the remote Dragon Island has temples for sacrifices.
Children on the mainland will go to the temple to be baptized when they grow up to about five years old. Children with magical talents can awaken their talents, and then either be absorbed by the temple or win over by the empire, which makes the status of the rare magician even more noble.
"This is a mysterious world. I also awakened my ability to be magic here, so will I come here again? Is there a chance to learn magic?"
"Xingchenhua, can you tell me why you brought me to this world?" Xie Cheng turned over and opened his eyes, and reached out to caress the more and more crystal clear Xingchenhua, but it hugged its fingers with leaves and gently rubbed it. The emotions it conveyed to Xie Cheng were too complex for him to distinguish.
"If only I could understand your words, do plants have a special language?" Perhaps because he felt that he was about to leave this world, Xie Cheng found himself a little bit reluctant.
How could the magical world with magic not make him curious and longing.
But it has been seven days since I came to this world, not to mention whether the company and the agency in S city can't contact me, will I call the police, my grandfather will definitely call me when I receive the luggage, he doesn't want to stay in this world forever, his old man Worry and sad.
The moment before falling into sleep, Xie Cheng was still thinking in his mind that he heard that a painter's village was going to be built on the mountain of Tianhe Village, and he could use his land as a youth hotel.
You don’t have to be too busy with business, you can spend time with your grandfather, and the days of living on the mountain must be leisurely and comfortable.
After Xie Cheng fell asleep, Xing Xinghua stretched out its branches and leaves under the moonlight, and gently patted his back to make him sleep more peacefully.
In the mid-heaven of the moon, the brilliant white starlight shrouded a person and a plant together, and disappeared in this small town on the edge of the continent.
At the moment Xie Cheng left, in the westernmost part of the mainland, in the snow-capped mountains all year round, the tallest mage tower in the mainland suddenly lit up with starlight.
"This is the second time. The light of the stars finally came to the mainland again." The high priest of the temple walked out of the highest level of the mage tower again after 20 years. His long golden hair was flying in the wind and snow. Direction, the magical lines full of divinity are brewing in those eyes, and the beasts imprisoned in them will break through the confinement at any time and show up in front of the world.
At the same time, in the library that contains all the books from the age of the gods to the present, from the tower all the way down, there are layers of bookshelves inside the mountain, and the bottom of the mountain is still books. In the deepest place, the books of the age of the gods are hidden. A man who was five points similar to Xie Cheng was sleeping, and the chains made of divine script extended from the books and wrapped around his body.
As if sensing something, he frowned slightly as if he wanted to wake up, but the sudden increase in chains forced him to continue to sleep.
There were maps on the counter, and Xie Cheng saw that the name on one of the maps was "Sunset Forest".
"One first-level crystal nucleus or one gold coin can read books for two hours, and a complete map of the sunset forest costs 10 gold coins.
