[HP Tomb Raiders Notes] Zhaoming

Chapter 29 This is a Gentle City

"Little Huihui is leaving, so what should I do?" Si Changyan hiccupped lying on the sofa, her eyes were blurred, and the red wine on her face showed that she drank a lot tonight.

Jiang Yu and Yao Hui, who were helping to clear the table, froze when they heard the drunken witch's babble, and then put the wine glasses and the like together.Yao Hui put the tableware in the sink, and everything was cleaned automatically. Jiang Yu walked towards her friend on the sofa. She brushed away a strand of hair from the other person's face, and then whispered softly in the witch's ear, "Get up!" Changyan, go home." He reached out to the girl's armpit to help her up.

Si Changyan twisted her body and barely stood up with Jiang Yu's help.She opened her eyes and took a look, then hugged the neck of the person beside her and said in surprise, "Xiao Mumu, why is it you?"

The other two were stunned.

Wei Chengnan came back after seeing off a few friends, and saw Si Changyan hugging his girlfriend and rubbing hard.His face turned dark all of a sudden, and then he went to try to pull the two of them apart. At this time, Yao Hui also reacted, so he grabbed a girl one by one, and finally separated the two who were like conjoined twins.

"Yao Hui, I'll leave Changyan to you." Wei Chengnan was afraid that the drunken witch would cling to Jiang Yu again, so he hurriedly dragged Jiang Yu upstairs.

Jiang Yu looked at her and the witch in her arms a little apologetically, the latter was staggering, as if she didn't know what she had just done.

Yao Hui watched the two leave, and she patted the witch's face, only getting the other party's unconscious whispers.In the end, she shook her head helplessly, and cast a levitation spell to send her friend to the guest room on the second floor.

After cleaning up the mess, she took out a pass and looked at it carefully, looking forward to the upcoming journey.

Although I have heard that Muggle transportation is very convenient, but after experiencing it for myself, it feels quite novel.The three of them packed their luggage and got on the train bound for Hangzhou early. After more than 30 hours, they finally set foot on this famous city.She was looking at the bustling streets and shops curiously along the way. She had heard from Ye Mei earlier that there was a period of history when Hangzhou, also known as Lin'an, was extremely prosperous as the capital of the country.It is said that there are beautiful scenery of the West Lake and the romantic story between the white lady and Xu Xian, but she feels that the ending of the story is not so happy.

She suddenly thought of something, and then said to A Yuan: "A Yuan, do you know where there are night markets in Hangzhou?"

"Night market? There's a famous one in Wushan." He glanced at Zhang Qiling who was walking in front, and quickly added, "Sister Lin, why don't you ask Master Zhang to take you there?"

Who said that we should make an appointment to eat delicious food together?

While lamenting that the other party's will is too fragile, and the revolutionary friendship can be broken at any time, she waved her hand: "Forget it, let's find a place to live first."

He made a detour to a secluded alley, and there was a small car parked beside the alley, which looked rather old.A Yuan opened the car door and got into the driver's seat, Zhang Qiling sat in the passenger seat, Jiang Lin followed their example and opened the car door, then sat in the back seat.I have to say that A Yuan's technique is still not bad, and the journey was very smooth, passing residential buildings around, she gradually became a little sleepy, so she leaned on the seat and took a nap.

About half an hour later, she was woken up by A Yuan, and when she came out, she found that in front of her was a three-story old-fashioned apartment, surrounded by a dozen buildings sparsely, and there were not many people coming and going. From the bustling shops they saw, it seemed that they had already arrived in the suburbs.

A Yuan took out a bunch of keys to open the iron door, and then led Jiang Lin to a room in the back of the third floor. The room was not big, but the sheets and bedding looked clean.

"Sister Xiaolin, Mr. Zhang told you to live in this room. We live on the second floor, and we will let you know if there is anything," he said as he walked to the window, as if glancing downstairs, he said quickly, "Yes Sometimes some guys will discuss things on the first floor, sister, don’t wander around if you have nothing to do, and it’s best not to enter the room on the first floor.” After speaking, he handed her a key.

"Okay, I'll remember it, thank you!" Jiang Lin agreed after taking the key and shaking it.

"Then Miss Xiaolin, take a break first, and I'll call you when it's time to eat."

"Well, go about your business."

After A Yuan went downstairs, she put the keys on a small wooden table by the window, and opened the half-covered off-white curtains. Several low-rise buildings.Leaning her back against the window, she looked at the furnishings in the room again. There was a small wardrobe, a single bed, and the table at hand was also very old-fashioned.Generally speaking, it is simple and orderly, and she is already very satisfied with the current situation.

The place to stay is settled, the problem now is to organize the carry-on luggage, and then go to find the wizard settlement here.

I hope the location has not changed, I hope my luck will be better this time, and I hope I can get a little favor.

She opened the closet and hung up the clothes one by one after confirming that they were clean.

After dinner, regardless of A Yuan's strong protest, Jiang Lin stopped him and asked him to take him to Wushan to see the night market.The grief and indignation and lovelessness on the boy's face made her feel like she had turned into a despicable old hag who abducted children.

"If you don't go, I'll tell your Master Zhang to tell you to take me there." Jiang Lin pointed at someone who was leaning on the sofa with his eyes closed and meditating, "Or do you really want to go?" Do you want to trouble the old man to go out in person?"

"But how can I ask my sister out to play with Sister Xiaolin?" A Yuan shrank back like a wronged little wife, and Jiang Lin let go of her hand in time.

"Oh? And dating a girl?" She looked up and down the thin boy in front of her with great interest. Although he was a bit weak, he was taller, had a rosy face and was handsome, and looked a bit like a student.

"Okay, then go on a date today. But let me remind you, be patient with girls. Most girls like fluffy gadgets. If you see something suitable, you might as well buy it and give it to her." Jiang Lin like The intimate sister also gave pertinent advice, and the latter nodded seriously, then grabbed his coat and rushed out like a whirlwind, as if he was afraid that someone would catch him back.

Although she was very happy to see the boy going on a date, her plan would be delayed again. After tidying up the room during the day, she used her wand again. This time the situation was slightly better, but the spell lasted longer than It was too short before.Relying on this magic power, she can barely protect herself, and if she encounters a powerful person, she will not be able to escape smoothly.

Jiang Lin turned around in disappointment and was about to go upstairs when a familiar voice suddenly sounded in the living room.

"Come with me." Zhang Qiling had already stood up, straightened his coat and said.

"Huh?" She looked at the man's movements a little blankly.

"You want to find a wizard village in this area." Zhang Qiling added, "The less people know about this, the better."

A warm current slowly poured into her heart. It turned out that the other party still remembered what she said before, and she was so thoughtful.Although she accidentally came to this strange time and space and experienced a lot of messy things, the man in front of her gave her a lot of sense of security, which made her feel a little grateful for the purger who brought her to this time and space.

She nodded to the other party, then smiled and said, "Okay, thank you."

The car was driven away by A Yuan before, and Zhang Qiling pushed out a strange-looking two-wheeled car from the carport downstairs. She guessed that this was their common means of transportation - a motorcycle.After Zhang Qiling stepped into the car, the other party handed her a helmet, holding it heavily in his hand.She tried to put the helmet on her head, but couldn't get the straps on, so the helmet hung loosely on one side.The man in front saw her embarrassment from the rearview mirror, so he turned around and helped her fasten the belt, the surrounding seemed to be quiet all of a sudden, with a slight cool breeze blowing over the side of her neck, she shrank her shoulders involuntarily, and the other party had to follow her The action got closer again.The atmosphere was a bit strange, but fortunately he fastened the belt quickly.

They were driving along the wide street, and there were more and more pedestrians and shops on the road. Because it was the first time to take this kind of transportation, she nervously buckled the seat cushions on both sides. When Zhang Qiling stopped, her hands had already grown Got sore.

Jiang Lin followed and got out of the car. She fumbled to untie the strap and take off the helmet, and the surrounding voices suddenly became noisy.In front of her was a lively long street, with a red lacquered board standing at the entrance—Wushan Street Night Market, where there were row after row of food stalls, as well as many small shops selling trinkets and things she couldn't name.Several ropes were drawn above the long street, and the ropes were tied with colored ribbons. Oil-paper umbrellas of various colors were hung on them, and a row of red lanterns hung on each end. It seemed that there was no end in sight from a distance.There were a lot of people on the long street, and she had to follow Zhang Qiling closely to prevent the two of them from being scattered by the turbulent crowd.She kept looking at the shops on both sides of the street, for fear of missing any details related to magic, but she didn't notice anything strange along the way.In the end, she had no choice but to stop Zhang Qiling, and the two walked to a slightly secluded corner at the end of the street.

"I didn't find anything. I guess there is no entrance to the magic world here." Jiang Lin said while holding his left wrist gently. Some sweat's sake.

Zhang Qiling noticed her movements, the girl frowned because of something, and her shoulders moved a little uncomfortably.

"Are you uncomfortable?" The man's voice in the night wind mixed with the noise not far away, a little unreal.

"Ah? It's a little bit." She looked down at her wrist and agreed, "Maybe there are really no clues, why don't we go back first." She said disappointedly.

Afterwards, they began to walk back along the way they came. This time, there was no sense of urgency. She looked at the various small shops in front of her with confidence, many of which were novelties that she had never seen in the magic world. .In the end, her eyes settled on a small stall selling masks. It's not like she hasn't seen this kind of thing before, but most of the styles are all kinds of magical animals, banshees, and famous wizard characters familiar to wizards. There are many types of masks here. They are very interesting, including animals, myths and legends, and various facial makeup.She couldn't help picking up a fat doll mask, with two exaggerated blushes painted on her face, and her eyes were curved like crescent moons, which was very pleasing to look at.

"Do you want to try wearing it, little girl?" The boss was a man in his 50s with gray hair, and he asked with a smile when he saw someone interested.

Under the encouraging eyes of the old man, she put the mask on her face, and the boss quickly handed over a mirror. In the mirror, a fat doll looked at her with crooked eyes. This feeling was very novel.

"Buy it if you like it, girl!" Seeing Jiang Lin admiring the mask, the boss realized that there might be a door.

She wanted to buy it too, but when she thought she still owed money to others and she didn't have any savings, the eagerness just now dissipated a lot. She took off the mask and planned to put it back, when a cold and familiar voice suddenly came from behind her.

"You like it?" Zhang Qiling walked to her side.

She nodded. She was patronizing various small shops just now, but she didn't realize that the other party had gone far.

"Boss, how much is this?" He picked up the mask the girl tried just now and asked.

The old man stretched out two index fingers and crossed them: "Ten yuan, the cheapest price on this street."

Zhang Qiling raised his eyebrows slightly: "There's a shop on the street ahead that only sells for five yuan each, how can you consider it cheap?"

The old man hesitated a bit: "Then how much do you see, young man." Originally, these two people should be a couple, thinking that they could kill the fried rice money, but they didn't expect that the other party looked young and was still a powerful character.

The man held out three fingers, and the boss noticed that two were particularly long.

"Okay, okay, take it away." He suddenly thought of the expert mentioned in Shijin's neighborhood chat, and quickly agreed.

Zhang Qiling took out a five-yuan note from his pocket, waited for the boss to find the change, handed the mask to the girl, and continued walking.Jiang Lin watched the other party calmly bargaining with a dull face, and only then seemed to recover and followed the other party.

It's too old to see that Zhang Qiling's bargaining skill is so high, it's almost the same as Ye Mei's shopaholic.She wondered in her heart.

Suddenly, a little boy jumped out from the left, about seven or eight years old, with a round face and a tiger head.He was very fast and bumped into Jiang Lin's leg. She was unsteady for a while, so she could only reach out and grab the coat of the person in front of her.The little boy blushed and said sorry and ran away.

Zhang Qiling turned around and saw that the girl had already put on the mask, and behind the doll's cute smiling face was a pair of warm and clear eyes.

He turned his head and continued walking with the girl, the crowd around him was still noisy, they walked through the long street full of red lanterns and oiled paper umbrellas.
