Chapter 500 Lan, Who Has No Books to Read, Is About to Die
Lan felt that she was going crazy recently, in various senses. She has no idea about finding a suitable successor for the task entrusted to her by Master Ancient One.
Whether she used magic divination or traction and positioning, she couldn't find the person Gu Yi asked her to find. That's right, if she could find the person she was looking for by this simple method, why would Gu Yi need her to live with Li Jie and look for it slowly.
Gu Yi's magic power is much stronger than hers, so it's fine if he doesn't just do divination. And that was just the first thing that bothered Lan.
The second thing is that she is not used to eating food, although Lan is not a picky girl. But the taste problem that has been cultivated for more than ten years is really difficult to change.
When she was in Kamateki, she was used to eating fresh beef. Although the cooking method is basically simple, the freshness of the ingredients is better than that. And the taste of consumed beef is not the same as that of ordinary beef.
In addition, Kamateki is located on a plateau, and the food grown is mainly highland barley, as well as saffron and snow lotus, which are all grown by Kamateki himself.
After so many years of tasting, Lan's taste buds are completely accustomed to the taste of Kamateki. She is not a mage who has become a monk halfway from the secular world, but grew up in Kamateki since she was a child.
So she is not used to many common foods in the world. For example, she didn't even want to touch a medium-rare steak. She is used to beef that is fully cooked in white water.
There is also sashimi that I don't want to eat at all. She also doesn't like food with various complex seasonings, her taste is very simple.
This caused her to basically not eat out, and would go home on time every day when it was time for meals, because Li Jie would help her prepare light and simple food suitable for her.
Every time, she would sit at the table like a good baby and wait for Li Jie to bring the food to the table, and then she would consciously wash the dishes by herself after eating.
Among the mage's spells, there are some more convenient spells for housework. For example, automatic dishwashing, such as automatic cleaning, and you can also direct the brooms to clean up by themselves.
Of course, the first two unbearable things are trivial things to Lan, so it can be said that they are not worth mentioning. The really unbearable thing for Lan was that she didn't-have-book-read-it!
This is the most difficult thing for her! After Gu Yi taught Lan to read and write, Lan showed her extraordinary reading addiction at a very young age.
She would carefully look at any paper with captions, at first Gu Yi thought that this girl liked to read. Later, when Gu Yi discovered that the toothpaste he bought for Lan, she would read all the words printed on the outer packaging, Gu Yi finally confirmed that this girl had a reading addiction.
Well, most people in this world have more or less their own hobbies. There is no need to deny anything, because taking selfies is also a hobby.
Compared with some hobbies that can be called diseases, Lan's reading addiction is nothing at all. But for mages, this is a good habit, and it can even be said to be a talent. In particular, Lan has a strong comprehension ability, coupled with the mage's unique memory spell, which allows her to make rapid progress in her studies.
In Kamateki, Rand never felt that his bibliophilia was a problem. Because there is a huge library there, and there are so many books in it that she can't read them all.
And came to New York, after getting together with Li Jiezhu. She found herself in some trouble. Because this was in New York, she couldn't unscrupulously read all kinds of magic books from Kamateki.
Because some magic books have magic power fluctuations, and some magic books are even written with black magic, and they need to be read in Kamateki's protective circle.
She can't open her mirror space all the time to create an environment for herself to study, she will be exhausted!
When she finished reading all the books she brought from Kamateki that could be read here, she fell into a book panic.
Lan had never felt that the book famine was such a terrible thing before, but when the book famine really came, she felt that she was about to die.
There is no book to read, and I lie on the bed and don't want to move.
I have no books to read, and I don't want to go out to do things.
I have no books to read, and I don't want to go downstairs to eat.
No books to read, no energy, no energy to do anything.
This is the portrayal of Lan now. She has developed to the point where she even has to read all kinds of printed manuals. As for why she doesn't look for books on the Internet, the reason is very simple. Her reading addiction is to read printed text on paper materials.
Facing the screens of computers and mobile phones, it's like scratching nowhere.
It was a sunny day with no clouds in the sky. The flowers are laughing, the birds are singing, and Mage Lan is sleeping soundly.
To be precise, it wasn't sleeping, it was just lying dead. She has rolled around on the bed several times, even her hair is messed up, but she still doesn't want to get up.
When Li Jie came back from the medical equipment store carrying ten medical dummies, he realized something was wrong today. Because the house is not cleared today, these things are usually handled by Lan's magic.
When he walked to the door of Lan's room and saw that Lan's door was half closed, and Lan was staring at the corpse lying on the ceiling with open eyes, Li Jie knocked on Lan's door and walked in.
Lan turned her head and glanced at Li Jie lightly, then continued to lie in the corpse.
It was the first time Li Jie saw Lan in this state.
"Are you sick?" Li Jie walked to Lan's side, reached out and touched Lan's forehead, the temperature was normal and there was no fever. Then I took a good look at Lan's face for a while, and it was normal.
"No, it's just that the spirit is a little empty." Lan said quietly, with an ethereal tone that seemed inhuman.
"Because there are no books to read?" Li Jie sat down beside Lan's bed and asked in a smiling tone.
Lan glanced at Li Jie, then turned around, turned her back to him and said, "What are you talking about?"
"Because of lack of enough reading, I fell into a state of fatigue and depression, so that I was lying dead on the bed and even rolling around." Li Jie said solemnly. He glanced at Lan, who was facing away from him, and found that her The ears are all red.
"I went to the New York Temple before and contacted Wang. I only learned about these things from him. Why didn't you tell me before? So, do you want to go to the library or the bookstore?" Li Jie gave Lan's body to Come straight and say.
"If you tell me that you can't go to the library to borrow books because you don't have a valid certificate, and you don't have enough cash to go to the bookstore to buy a lot of books, you can actually tell me."
Li Jie looked at Lan and said helplessly, since he just turned Lan around, she has been covering her face with her hands. But where there is no way to get in the way, you can still see her face turning red.
Hearing what Li Jie said, Lan finally showed a slit in her fingers, allowing her eyes to be exposed. From shyness or other reasons, her eyes became watery.
She asked softly, "Really?"
Li Jie nodded and said, "Really." But then he changed the subject and said, "But, you have to tell me. Why did you agree to Xianyu's request yesterday to be his artificial respiration training object? Originally, I I can get away now. Because of you, my first kiss is gone, and I gave it to a disgusting salted fish!"
Li Jie put his face very close to Lan, staring straight into Lan's eyes.
Lan didn't know how to answer. Do you want to tell Li Jie that he felt very ashamed after his reading addiction was discovered by him, especially when he read all kinds of paper manuals, and even the shoebox was seen by him, and felt very embarrassing, so he made an inexplicable move? .
Lan's face turned even redder, as if her ears were about to burn. She covered her face again, and said in a false voice that she couldn't believe it: "Because it's just practice, isn't it fake? It's just medical first aid training! I didn't think about anything else!"
Even Lan himself didn't believe this kind of fake tone, let alone Li Jie. He grabbed Lan's hand in front of his face and said, "So what if I practice with you?"
"What?" Lan suddenly forgot her shyness and embarrassment just now, she looked at Li Jie and said.
Because of the incident with Thor yesterday, Li Jie has been a little brooding. It can be seen from the fact that he bought ten medical dummies in one go. Thor, don't you want to train, keep training! I'll let you practice until your lips are blistered! Not taking revenge is not Li Jie's style.
So for Lan, Li Jie was also very bold this time. He directly expressed with actions what the so-called Thor's artificial respiration practice looks like.
He quickly approached Lan, when his lips just touched Lan's lips, Lan suddenly realized what Li Jie wanted to do.
Almost subconsciously, Lan pushed Li Jie away forcefully, and at the same time activated the door of space. Li Jie, who originally wanted to do a forced [artificial respiration], was pushed out by Lan just when the progress bar reached 20%, and he went through the gate of space.
Before Li Jie could feel the touch on his lips, he felt as if he fell heavily on a lawn. Damn, looks like a failure! Li Jie got up and spat out the grass roots that still had a damp taste in his mouth.
Lan just activated the door of space? Li Jie looked around for a week and realized that he didn't know where he was. This is a large lawn with some old European buildings in the distance.
Li Jie can be sure that this is not the United States, because the summer in the United States is not so cool, and there is still a hint of humidity. Looking at the buildings here, could it be that I was pushed to a certain country in Northern Europe by Lan?
Just when Li Jie still didn't know where he was, a familiar voice suddenly called him.
"Jason?" Gwen, who was standing at the end of another intersection on the lawn, was a little surprised to see Li Jie, and called out his name.
"Hi, Gwen." Li Jie waved his hand stiffly, he knew where he was now. With a light push from Lan, he traveled thousands of miles to London on the other side of the world.
Gwen walked quickly towards Li Jie from the other side of the road, and said in an unbelievable tone: "Why did you come to London?"
"I said it was because someone exiled me for thousands of miles, do you believe it?" Li Jie patted the grass clippings that had just been stuck to his clothes from the lawn.
Gwen looked at Li Jie with a half-smile and said, "Should I call you Jason Lee, or Li Jie, or just call you Nightcrawler, what do you think?"
Li Jie stopped patting grass clippings, and looked at Gwen with a puzzled look.
