Chapter 50: The Rat in the First Mate's House

"Boom, boom, boom."

Li Feng knocked on the door of the small villa.

Soon, a middle-aged woman wearing a long skirt came out.

She was Captain John's wife, Lady Rupert.

Li Feng explained his identity to her.

Mrs. Rupert was very surprised when she heard this. She did not expect that Mr. Rhine, who saved her husband, would come to the door in person.

After being stunned for a moment, Mrs. Rupert immediately invited Li Feng into the living room with both enthusiasm and embarrassment.

Because Li Feng saved his husband, Mrs. Rupert was extremely grateful to Li Feng.

When she saw that Li Feng had brought a gift, she immediately felt embarrassed.

The two walked through the small garden and into the living room, inevitably saying many words of thanks along the way.

Afterwards, Mrs. Rupert invited Li Feng to sit down in the living room.

Then while making tea for Li Feng, she hurriedly called Captain John down from upstairs.

"Oh, are your injuries really healed?"

Although Captain John heard from the priests in the morning that Li Feng was favored by the goddess and his injuries were completely healed.

But seeing him in person was still unbelievable.

"Bless the seven gods. I will be relieved to see you recover."

Then Captain John looked as embarrassed as his wife:

"You saved my life, but I asked you to come visit me first. How embarrassing is that? It's so rude of me."

After hearing this, Li Feng naturally said some words to reassure Captain John and his wife, and at the same time enhance their relationship.

Moreover, Li Feng did not hide anything and told the captain that he had been promoted to extraordinary.

After hearing this, the captain and his wife were shocked and admired at the same time. They lamented that life is terrible.

After several conversations, Captain John and Li Feng seemed to have been friends for many years.

After that, Li Feng pushed the boat forward and told the captain that he wanted to board the hunting ship and continue to advance to extraordinary things.

Captain John, who already regarded Li Feng as a close friend, had no intention of shirk at all after hearing what Li Feng mentioned.

He told Li Feng that the cousin of the first mate of the Jellyfish was the captain of a hunting ship.

Moreover, that ship is in desperate need of a true transcendent.

Seeing that Li Feng didn't want to wait, Captain John immediately said that he would go with Li Feng to find the first mate now.

Then ask the first mate to introduce Li Feng.

Li Feng naturally agreed.

It just made Mrs. Rupert, who wanted to keep Li Feng for dinner, very sorry.

He also invited Li Feng to come to his house for a casual meal next time he has time.

The warm breeze of midsummer blows, bringing with it the smell of the sea.

Not far from Captain John's single-family cottage, many townhouses were built.

The first mate's home is here.

It can be seen that the treatment given by the shipping company to seafarers is quite good.

But from another aspect, it is enough to show that going to sea is indeed dangerous.

"Dong dong dong."

Captain John led Li Feng to a villa with weeds in the small flower bed in front of the door.

This is the first mate's home.

Unlike the carefully tended flower beds of the neighbors on both sides, the small flower bed of the first mate's house only grew weeds and wild flowers.

"Not at home?"

After waiting for about three minutes, no one opened the door. The captain frowned and said to himself:

"Has this guy been drinking in the pub until now?"

Then, as if to make sure no one was in the room, Captain John knocked harder on the door.

"Dong dong dong."

Still no one opened the door, only the window next to the door rattled.

Captain John sighed.

Just when he was about to turn around and say something to Li Feng, he saw a big gray-skinned mouse squeeze out from the crack of the window on the side.

As soon as the mouse saw the person, it ran into the flower bed and disappeared in a flash.

"Hey! These damn things!"

Captain John suddenly shouted when he saw the mouse.

Then he sighed again, put his hand into his pocket, and said to Li Feng:

"Well, I, the first mate, must have forgotten to put away the food before going to sea. Look, there are rats in the house again."

The captain said, taking out a key from his pocket, inserting it into the keyhole, and opened the door of the first mate's house.

at the same time.

He explained to Li Feng that the first mate lost his son early in life, and within a few years, his wife followed him.

Now, only the first mate is left in his family.

Fortunately, he has a young nephew who treats him well, so he is not left homeless.

“He actually doesn’t have any bad habits, he doesn’t like gambling, and he doesn’t like those pretty girls on the street.

In addition to liking to drink, I always forget to put away the food at home before going to sea. "

John said as he entered the first mate's home.

He said that because the first mate lived alone and went to sea for more than ten days at a time, no one took care of the house.

So I left a key at the captain's house.

While they were at sea, Mrs. Rupert would occasionally come over to see if there was any food left out, rats, or stray cats.

However, just as Captain John and Li Feng walked into the first mate's living room together.

But found that his living room and dining room were clean.

There was no sign of rats or the smell of spoiled food.

"Maybe just passing by?"

Captain John looked at the window and scratched his head. Maybe the mouse was just passing by and didn't live here?

Don't worry about the mice anymore.

Captain John saw that the first mate was not at home, so he took out a pen and paper.

Write down his visit today and Li Feng's wish to go on the hunting boat on a piece of paper, and then press it on the dining table of the first mate's house with a cup.

After that, Captain John and Li Feng left the first mate's house together.

It was getting dark.

Li Feng declined the captain's repeated invitation to have dinner at his house, and went straight back to the Purple Gold Flower Church.

There was no plan to go on the hunting boat today, but Li Feng still had a lot of other things to do.

He quickly finished dinner with other priests.

After finishing the evening class, Li Feng went to the tool room of the church to borrow alchemical tools and special heating lamps, and hurried back to the dormitory.

Alchemical heating lamps are a kind of heating device that uses gas as fuel.

It is very similar to the Bunsen burner before crossing.

When Li Feng first knew about this tool, he was very skeptical that it was "invented" by the players who came through several batches earlier.

However, this is still too far from his current life. Li Feng only remembered this matter in his heart and didn't care about it anymore.

One water element essence is three pieces of golden thorn grass, a piece of wild grape vine with leaves, and a crystal bottle.

These are all the materials needed to make an ordinary lucky potion.

When Li Feng sorted out the extraordinary materials he bought this time at noon, he had already fished them.

But it seems that because they are all low-level materials, the things he got are also ordinary items.

Nothing new.

After recalling the formula of the ordinary lucky potion.

Li Feng first put the water element essence into a round-bottomed flask, and then heated it on a heating lamp.

Soon, the water element essence "melted" into a bottle of star-studded and crystal-clear substances.

These substances are somewhat similar to gases, but they do not have the fluidity of gases.

Now, the "melted" water element essences are all left at the bottom of the bottle, as if thousands of stars were put into the flask.

After that, Li Feng followed the formula steps he learned and added three pieces of golden thorn grass and chopped wild grape vines with leaves in turn.

Then continue heating, stirring, and pouring into a crystal bottle to cool.

Finally, looking at a bottle of light golden potion with crystal light, Li Feng nodded with satisfaction.

Judging from the appearance and state, he has successfully prepared an ordinary lucky potion.

The evening breeze blows outside the window, and the night sky is full of stars.

The hazy moonlight illuminates the earth regardless of the area.

In an independent villa in the upper residential area of ​​the dock area.

"Mother, do you mean that gentleman came to our house?"

At the dining table, Margaret took the mainland fruit that Li Feng sent in the afternoon and asked Mrs. Rupert.

"Yes, it's really rude for us to let Mr. Rhine visit us first."

Mrs. Rupert said to her daughter.

"Well-what kind of person is he?"

Margaret leaned forward and asked curiously.

Mrs. Rupert glanced at her daughter and smiled while sewing clothes:

"He is a young, handsome and cultured gentleman, and he is a real extraordinary person."

"Extraordinary person?! Really?"

Margaret, who was seventeen or eighteen years old, was very surprised after hearing this. Among the people she knew, no one was an extraordinary person.

At this time, Margaret, who was very curious about mysticism, turned to look at her father.

She wanted to ask her father what kind of abilities the real extraordinary people had.

"Father, eh? What's wrong with you?"

The daughter's words interrupted Captain John's meditation and also attracted Mrs. Rupert's inquiring eyes.

Looking at his wife and daughter, Captain John sighed, rubbing his eyebrows and said:

"I can't explain it. I was uneasy after returning from the first mate today."

Then he looked at the sky outside and said to his wife:

"I'll go see him again tomorrow morning. Don't let anything happen to him."
