Sorcerer's Survival Manual

On the road from Anping Town to Qian'an County, an ordinary white van was heading towards the county seat.

It was the first time for Ansair to ride in a car, and it was much more comfortable than a horse-drawn carriage. However, in terms of speed, he felt that a mount was faster, but good mounts are not as popular as cars, so in comparison, cars are still faster. There are some advantages.

If he can go home, he must take one back to develop a means of transportation in Seran Continent.

The feeling of riding a car for the first time was very novel. He was so eager to study that he even wanted to touch the steering wheel. Unfortunately, no one dared to give his car to a minor who had never driven a car before.

After trying to no avail, Ansair had no choice but to sit behind the driver's seat and stare at the driver all the way to observe his every move.

The driver is the owner of a small supermarket in Anping Town. He is one of the few ordinary people. He goes to the county to buy goods several times a month. Dr. Ma used to ask him to drop by to help him get the medicine. Ansair and Kong Ru took a ride.

Originally, Dr. Ma wanted to come, but there were still a few patients in the hospital who were coming today, and Kong Ru was not at ease seeing him, so he simply stayed with him and asked Kong Ru to accompany Ansair to the county .

Kong Ru also didn't come to the county for more than half a year, but she was very happy to come out, ready to go shopping and buy things.

The car drove for two hours and finally entered Qian'an County. Ansair also realized for the first time that there are so many people in this world.

Even though the world's population has dropped sharply, most of the land has been forced to "convert farmland to forests". After the areas where human beings gather become smaller, the flow of people in bustling towns is still a huge number.

Just as Anping Town's name is not true, so is Qian'an County {—although it is called a county, its prosperity is comparable to that of second- and third-tier cities.

Passing the toll booth, the road is full of motor vehicles of various styles and colors, large and small. On the sidewalks on both sides of the road, crowds of people flow in the steel forest made of high-rise buildings.

Pressing against the car window, Ansair was almost dazzled.

The van stopped at a bus stop.

"I'll go back at six in the afternoon, and you will wait for me here, okay?"

Ansair wanted to go to the bookstore, while Kong Ru wanted to go shopping. The place they were going to was different from the route of the supermarket, so naturally they had to go separately.

Kong Ruxian got out of the car with one step, and nodded to Li Jieqiang who was in the driver's seat: "Okay, Uncle Qiang, it's four o'clock, right, we remember."

Ansair followed Kong Ru out of the car, turned his head to say goodbye to Li Jieqiang, and didn't notice the eyes floating around him.

You, but Kong Ru vaguely heard the small voices of people waiting for the train on the platform.

"Is it a mutant?"

"It doesn't seem to be the case. The eyes and hair are different, and it looks like a foreigner."

"Maybe she dyed her hair or covered it up with colored contact lenses."

"Even if it is, so what, it scares you, how big he is, and how dangerous he is."

"That's true, but she looks so pretty..."

"Yeah, I didn't expect such a beautiful boy to exist in reality. It's really a feast for the eyes. No, I have to take a picture and show it to my colleagues."

There are many voices wishing Ansier, but just as Dr. Ma thought, Ansier's too young age and exquisite and beautiful appearance make it easy for people to let go of their guards, and they can't act like him when facing him. Seeing other mutants, I can't wait to stay far away.

Kong Ru showed a faint smile, while reaching out to hook Ansair's wrist, and walking behind the crowd with him on his arm.

"Xiao An, hurry up, don't get bumped when you get off the car and enter the station."

Ansair didn't hear those discussions. He had learned Chinese quite well, but when a group of people spoke together, it was a bit difficult to tell what they were talking about. He could only vaguely hear that they were discussing him.

Thinking of Dr. Ma's repeated exhortations before he came out, he could guess what these people were talking about.

Ansair, who was not good at interacting with strangers, was somewhat repelled by the overly obvious gazes of the people around him.

Moreover, Kong Ru's intimate behavior made him a little overwhelmed and a little shy.

But he could see Kong Ru's deliberate maintenance, she wouldn't usually hold him like this, and this look was more like showing off to the people around her.

With a little shyness on his face, Ansair was obediently led behind by Kong Ru's arm.

They waited for 10 minutes and finally got the bus they wanted to take. At this time, there were no seats on the bus. Kong Ru paid the fare for him, and the two stood on the aisle holding the handrail and talking.

"Will you really not want my sister to accompany you to the bookstore later? Or should my sister stay with you?"

Ansair shook his head: "No need, Miss Ru, you can go and play, just call me after shopping."

How much women like to go shopping, he has learned from his mother. When he was a child, Ansair often went shopping with his mother. Every time he didn't walk for a few hours to buy a bunch of things, Camille was reluctant to go home. .

To be honest, he was relieved that he didn't have to go shopping with Kong Ru.

"Okay, let's go eat first, and then I'll take you to the bookstore, don't wander around, call if you need anything."

The largest bookstore in Qian'an County is located next to the most prosperous shopping plaza in Qian'an County. The two got off the car nearby and had a good meal together to fill their stomachs. Kong Ru sent Ansair to the bookstore. After watching him go in, he turned and went shopping.

It was the first time Ansair had seen such a big bookstore. The five-story bookstore was filled with all kinds of books, and the atmosphere here was also very good. As he knew, there were many People read books in it, but still maintain a quiet and relaxed atmosphere.

Generally speaking, the staff in this kind of bookstore basically let the customers choose books by themselves without disturbing them, but when Ansair appeared, the eyes of the girls in uniforms at the door lit up, and one of them He took the lead and greeted him before the others.

"Hello, is there anything I can help you with?"

Looking closer, she is even more stunning. This little brother is also very good-looking. At first glance, he looks like a foreigner with blond hair and blue eyes, but his facial features are more delicate than those of Chinese people, and the skin on his face is not as rough as ordinary foreigners. The spots are so delicate that even the pores cannot be seen, and the spots are so tender that water can be squeezed out.

Restraining her hands that were about to move, the sales lady who was so excited but kept a decent smile on her face waited for his answer with a smile.

Although it seemed that something was wrong, the other party's professional smile easily deceived Ansair, allowing him to answer her question easily and calmly: "I want to find some books about plants, where are they?"

Originally, he just wanted the other party to tell him where he was, but he didn’t expect that this enthusiastic young lady not only showed him the way, but also took him there, and even recommended a few best-selling plant books, so he was reluctant to part gone.

When Ansair saw the book he wanted, he couldn't wait to open it and read it. At first, he was worried that someone would come over because he was reading the book for nothing, but it didn't happen, so All the minds were put into it.

Concentrating on reading, he didn't notice that there were so many people passing by him, not only the staff, but even some people who were reading in the bookstore gradually began to pay attention to him.

To be honest, a handsome blond boy sitting in front of a bookshelf and concentrating on reading is as beautiful as a painting.

Many customers who originally came to read and buy books couldn't help but get closer to observe him, and the bold ones even took photos and recorded them and sent them to their circle of friends.

Before he knew it, there was already a group of people around Ansair, but they all kept quiet on purpose so that Ansair, who was fully devoted, would not be disturbed.

When Kong Ru approached, Ansair in the crowd should not be too easy to find.

After squeezing through the crowded crowd, she stepped forward and patted Ansair on the shoulder: "Hi!"

Ansair woke up immediately and looked back at her: "Miss Ru, have you bought something?"

"Of course, it's past four o'clock, we should go."

It was only then that Anseair realized that he had stood here for several hours, no wonder his legs were a little sore.

"Wait for me, I'll go check out."

He picked up all the books he had picked out and put aside. There were a dozen or so books, each of which was thick and stacked high.

Kong Ru helped him get a few books, and found that they were all about plants, and several of them were about mutant plants: "Why did you buy so many? Do you like plants?"

Ansair nodded: "Well, I like it."

But it's different from Kong Ru's liking. Kong Ru likes to grow flowers, but he prefers to destroy flowers with his hands.

"Then let me have a look later, I'm just about to buy some more special flowers and plants."

The two went downstairs to settle the bill, and left the bookstore under the regretful eyes of everyone.

Ansair held the packed book bag and looked at Kong Ru's empty hand: "Miss Ru, didn't you buy anything?"

"I bought it, I put it in the store." Kong Ru bought a lot of things for shopping today, she couldn't carry them by herself, so she just left them in the store and picked them up when she was going back.

"Let's fill our stomachs first and then pick up things, otherwise it will be night when we return to Anping Town."

Ansair naturally had no objection.

"Let's go, I'll take you to eat hot pot. There is a restaurant here that tastes really good. It's not easy to get it. There shouldn't be many people in their shop at this point. We just don't have to wait in line."

Ansair naturally had no objection.

And he is particularly curious about hot pot, a food that he has never eaten before.

Facts have proved that Huaguo's food can always conquer everyone's stomach, even if it is a visitor from another world.

Ansair, whose face was full of sunshine and his mouth was red from spicy food, still couldn't stop his chopsticks.

There were tears in a pair of slightly reddish blue eyes, as if they were about to fall at any time, but he himself didn't know it, and his ignorant and pitiful look not only amazed the diners around him, but even Kong Ru I couldn't help but took out my phone and took several pictures.

"You kid really looks so bad, you don't know how many men and women you will harm in the future, no! Let my sister take advantage of it first!"

As she spoke, she ran to his side, hooked his shoulders, pouted as if to kiss him, and took a selfie with her phone.

Ansair also made trouble with her, and cooperated with her to be careful. This is a movement he learned from watching other people take pictures.

It was a blow to the heart.

After eating the hot pot, they went to pick up the things that Kong Ru had put in. They didn't know what to see, but they were startled when they saw it. In one afternoon, Kong Ru bought eight bags of things, and many things were stuffed together to reduce the space.

Even Kong Ru herself was a little surprised and laughed a few times: "I didn't pay attention when I bought it, and I accidentally bought too much. I also bought two sets of clothes for you. I specially looked after them. I guarantee they fit and look good!"

Kong Ru is still very confident in her own aesthetics. She also helped buy the clothes Ansair is wearing now. Let's see how many people are dumbfounded after wearing them.

"Then I'll give you money when I go back."

"What money are you talking about? This is a gift for you." Kong Ru slapped him on the back: "Just promise Liang Bang and the others to buy you a notebook, and don't let me buy you a dress? Wear it well later and don't talk to me about money." , otherwise sister and you are in a hurry."

Ansair couldn't talk to her, so he had no choice but to not mention it, and planned to send her a gift in return.

There are others who need to be prepared to return gifts too.

It was not easy for them to take the bus with large and small bags, so they simply called a taxi and sat all the way to the place they had agreed with Li Jieqiang. Because they arrived a little earlier, they waited for a while before seeing the familiar van.

Li Jieqiang smiled when he saw their appearance: "Hey, you guys are doing shopping. You bought more things than me. Have you eaten? If you haven't eaten, I have snacks in the car. Let's eat something first."

Kong Ru put the things in the car, and replied: "I have eaten it, the hot pot that I took Xiao An to eat, he is very interesting, obviously he is not very good at spicy food, but he insisted on eating it, his mouth is swollen."

Li Jieming glanced at Ansair and nodded: "It's really a little swollen, Xiao An, it's a good thing to like to eat, but you have to do what you can—do you know what it means to do what you can?"

Ansair was thin-skinned, and after being teased for a few words, he couldn't help but get hot on his face, and nodded indiscriminately: "I will pay attention to it in the future."

Go back and exercise out of eating spicy food!

When the van returned to Anping Town, it was already dark. Li Jieqiang deliberately sent them to the door of the dormitory, and then turned around and went back, leaving two people to carry their things upstairs by themselves.

Dr. Ma, who had been a little worried, heard the sound of the car and found them back, so he hurried out and saw them moving things, he was a little surprised: "Why did you buy so many things?"

Kong Ru said embarrassedly: "I bought most of them. I haven't been shopping for a long time. I accidentally bought too much without knowing it."

While helping her carry her things upstairs, Dr. Ma asked them about the situation in Dao County. In fact, he knew that Ansair basically didn't go anywhere except the bookstore today, so it was impossible for him to encounter anything, but he still endured it. I kept asking and asking.

"Xiao Anke is very popular. When I went to pick him up, those people in the bookstore were all around him to peek at him, and some people even took pictures."

"Are there a lot of people taking pictures? No one will rape him, right?" Dr. Ma also came from the low-headed tribe, and his enthusiasm for surfing the Internet back then was no less than that of Kong Ru and the others. How chaotic the Internet is.

Kong Ru thought nothing of it: "There is so little information on Xiao An, what can they do? If we can help him find his family, we should be happy."

Earlier, Ansair approached Liang Bang and the others and said that he had recovered some memories. After he came back, he also told Dr. Ma that he had recovered some memories. The two of them also knew that Ansier's condition was better than that of ordinary mutants. There are many, and there will be no situation where they will not live to reach adulthood-they are really relieved when they know this.

It was just because Liang Bang and the others had instructed in advance that Ansair didn't say that the people in their family had no danger of mutant self-explosion—he also thought it was a matter of mutants, and it was not easy for ordinary people to join in. Okay—so the two of them don't know what he's been doing in private lately.

When Dr. Ma heard it, he put down the things in his hands and was about to go back: "That's all right, you guys should go to bed early after packing up, I'll go back first."

After Dr. Ma left, Kong Ru rummaged through her bag and handed him the clothes she bought for Ansair. Ansier thought they were at most two sets of clothes and trousers, but Kong Ru bought her two pairs of casual clothes. sports shoes.

Although they are all Volkswagen brands, it will cost one or two thousand for such a heavy package, which is worth a month's subsidy for Ansair.

Seeing that he opened his mouth to say something, Kong Ru stuffed the bag into his arms without saying a word, and started to drive away: "Let's go, I have to pack up, I won't let you sit down, remember to wear new clothes tomorrow. Let me see."

After pushing the people away, Ansair was driven outside as soon as the door was closed.

Looking at the closed door and the faint humming sound coming from inside the door, Ansair stayed for a long time before showing a very sweet smile, and walked briskly back to his room.

In the room, a few elves who didn't go to the county with him, but were left behind to take care of the nest of birds, flew over immediately when they saw him come back.

[An'an, we had a good time watching the house today, and even fed the birds~]

"Well, you guys are awesome." Ansair put down his things, praised the little ones, and took out the gifts for them.

It was a box of six egg tarts, with a few raisins in it, which Ansair deliberately placed in the subspace, and it was still steaming when it was taken out.

For humans, the egg tart is basically a bite, but for a few elves, it is simply a Big Mac.

【Wow!cake! 】

There is no cake shop in Anping Town. The elves who have only been around here have never seen egg tarts, but they know cakes. They are on TV. Sometimes people in the town will buy birthday cakes when they celebrate their birthdays. .

Although the appearance of the egg tarts is different, the sweet aroma is like a cake to them.

"It's an egg tart. I bought one for each of you."

He put the box on the table, and the five little ones surrounded him, swallowing hard at the aroma.

But no one touches these delicious-smelling egg tarts.

[An'an, can we eat? 】

Elemental elves don't need to eat. Usually, they eat at most the magic power given by Ansair. They have never tried human food.

"Yes." Ansair was sure. Although he didn't need to eat, it didn't mean that he couldn't eat it. The elemental elves he met before liked to eat all kinds of desserts and fruits, so Ansair bought them. Give this back to them.

Hearing that it was edible, the five little elves screamed excitedly, wanting to pounce on it and eat it, but they restrained themselves, and everyone discussed it together for a while, and finally told Ansair the result of their discussion.

[An'an, cut one for us, and put the rest away for tomorrow, okay? 】

I don't know when I will be able to eat such a rare delicacy next time, and the egg tarts are really big for them, even if they don't know how to fill them up, it's enough for everyone to share one equally.

"Okay, I'll keep the extra egg tart for you too." Ansair originally wanted to eat the remaining egg tart by himself, but since the elves want to eat slowly, let's leave it to them Well, he doesn't particularly like sweets anyway.

He couldn't find the bowl temporarily, so he took a clean napkin and put it on the table, then put an egg tart on it and cut it into five equal parts, and put the rest back into the subspace together with the box. There is no time flow in his subspace , can keep the food fresh and hot all the time, and ensure that it will still be the most delicious when it is taken out next time.

The five elves obediently washed their hands, then flew onto the napkin, each hugged an egg tart that was bigger than their heads, and bit down with an ahhh.

[Wooooow, it's delicious, this is delicious! 】

【So sweet~】

[Well, it's super sweet! 】

[I feel so happy! 】

[No wonder humans like to eat so much!Let's try the strawberries upstairs next time! 】

The strawberries upstairs are planted by Kong Ru. Although there is only a small piece of land, the yield is good. Every day, you can harvest a few ripe large strawberries—the premise is not to be eaten by birds. In order to prevent birds from stealing, Kong Ru It also took a lot of thought.

After hearing this, Anse Erti warned them: "The strawberries upstairs are planted by Miss Ru with great hard work. You can't steal them casually. If you want to eat them, I'll buy them for you."

As for strawberries, Anping Town still sells them. There is even a family that sells a plastic greenhouse to grow strawberries.

The five little ones obediently admitted their mistakes, saying that they would never steal anything.

[Then next time An An will buy us egg tarts? 】

The fire elf Salamanda, who is as irritable as eating, is licking his little hands, staring at the friends around him with big eyes. Speed ​​eats up the rest.

Anyway, I can't let this bad-tempered little friend snatch it!

Ansair nodded: "Yes, I'll buy it for you, and I'll buy other cakes, too, but it won't be until the next time someone goes to the county."

He won't go to the county again for a while, but he can ask others to take him.

【An'an is the best! ! ! 】
