Chapter 434 Morton
In a daze, Yaro seemed to have returned to his previous life, to a peaceful country where he didn't have to worry about dying suddenly while sleeping.
"Mr. Yue, Mr. Yue..."
A series of ethereal shouts seemed to come from the horizon.
Mr. Moon?
Who is that?
Yaro frowned subconsciously: Who is so incompetent and yelling here so early in the morning?
Despite this, Yaro felt an inexplicable sense of urgency in his heart.
It's like there is an extra needle in the comfortable Simmons bed. If you want to indulge in tenderness, you will be stung by the needle. Your body will be slightly tense, but you can't feel the needle anymore.
This vague and tingling feeling gradually restored Yaro's consciousness.
Stretching lazily, he opened his eyes, and the exotic decorations immediately came into view.
Yaro's body stiffened for a moment, then gradually became natural again.
Yawning, Yaro twisted his neck and asked casually: "What's wrong?"
The coachman's respectful voice came from the front of the carriage:
"Mr. Yue, I'm sorry to disturb your rest. The Ghost Orchid Garden has arrived. Mr. Morton would like to meet you again. Is it convenient for you? Don't worry, it won't take long to get to Mr. Morton's residence from here, so there won't be any delay. Your itinerary.”
"Brother Morton wants to see me?"
Morton's soft smile immediately appeared in Yarrow's mind.
"Of course!" Yaro said without hesitation.
"Okay, Mr. Yue, sit tight."
Snapped!
There was an air blast from a riding whip outside, and the carriage changed its direction slightly and slowly set off again.
Yaro had no time to pay attention to the beautiful scenery outside the window.
At this time, he didn't know why, but there was always an inexplicable sense of urgency in his heart, as if he had forgotten something important. He couldn't remember it no matter how much he wanted to recall it. He wanted to put it behind him, but he couldn't. neglect.
"What did I forget? Ian? Armor? Brother Morton? I clearly remember what happened just now!"
This kind of tangled emotion is extremely irritating!
But fortunately, not long after, the carriage stopped again.
"Mr. Yue, we are here."
When the car door opens, there is a refreshing fragrance of flowers and fruits.
This fragrance is somewhat similar to the fragrance in the carriage, but it is more magical. Just smelling it, it is like sweeping away the dust in the heart. The magic in the sea of consciousness becomes a little more active, and the perception of the surrounding void magic is also obvious. A little clearer.
So much so that Yaro felt as if his body and mind had gained peace, and the pain in his mind that was hard to remove seemed to have been healed.
Just when I looked up, I was shocked by the huge red flowers all over the ground.
The red flowers are enchanting and tremble in the drizzle, just like thousands of beauties wearing red gauze, dancing gracefully in the drizzle, competing for beauty with each other.
But at this time, all the purple and red colors are not as good as a touch of silver in the garden pavilion.
"Brother Morton!"
For some reason, Yaro suddenly felt a surge of surprise. He felt that the person in front of him was the most trustworthy person.
I was about to trot over, but as soon as I lifted my left foot, a strong stabbing pain flashed through my mind.
Yaro groaned, covering his head, and subconsciously stopped.
A flash of surprise flashed in Morton's eyes, he was stunned for a moment, and then he looked worried: "Yue, what's wrong? Are you feeling uncomfortable somewhere?"
After hearing these words, the surging emotions in Yaro's heart also inexplicably weakened, and the headache symptoms also alleviated.
He rubbed his forehead and tentatively took another step. Seeing nothing unusual, he slowly walked into the garden pavilion and said with some confusion, "I don't know what's going on. My head suddenly hurts."
"Maybe it's because you haven't rested recently, okay? Come on, have a cup of black tea to relax your mind."
As he spoke, Morton poured a cup of steaming black tea and placed it on the tea table in front of Yaro.
The tea is red and clear, like amber, with a few berries floating above, similar in size to blueberries, transparent and deep red, like wolfberry, but small balls, undulating, rotating and colliding with each other in the tea, looking a bit playful.
Yaro looked at the tea cup, but did not reach out.
Morton poured himself a cup of tea. After taking a sip, he narrowed his eyes comfortably and said with a smile: "That's the ghost orchid fruit. As a magic ingredient, its effect is much better than coffee."
Ghost orchid fruit?
The fruit of the Ghost Orchid?
Yaro wanted to drink it, but for some reason, he had a vague hunch that if he drank from the tea cup, his head would definitely sting again.
After thinking about it for a moment, Yaluo picked up the teacup and without drinking it, he raised his head and asked, "Brother Morton, what do you want from me?"
Morton seemed not to have seen this scene, and said in a normal tone: "Yue, have you asked me why Ian attacked his magic teacher?"
That's what it was all about!
Yaro secretly breathed a sigh of relief, thought for a moment, and said: "Ian believes that the previous magic teacher stole his treasure, well... he thought he gave it to you."
"Treasure? His armor made purely of magic stones?" Morton raised his eyebrows slightly and said in surprise.
"So you know it too."
"Of course," Morton smiled, "Ian guessed half of it right. That set of armor was indeed taken away by me. As for his magic teacher...well, maybe it was just a proper misunderstanding?"
He actually admitted it directly?
"Why...why do you do this?" Yaro couldn't help but ask.
"Do you know how many magic stones Ian used to make that set of armor?" Morton asked.
Yaro made a secret estimate and asked tentatively: "Sixteen hundred?"
"Eighteen hundred!"
Well, Ian's craftsmanship is naturally not as good as Yaro's.
"Do you know what this means?" Morton put down his tea cup.
"I don't know." Yaro shook his head.
Perhaps it's because I was used to seeing all kinds of big numbers in my previous life. I was looking for things like 'ten thousand taels of gold' or 'one hundred million taels of gold' in Shuyuan www.zhaoshuyuan.com. Although I know that magic stones are hard to earn in this life, it's hard for me to think about thousands of taels of gold. What will happen if the value is too high?
"Not only did he spend all his family's savings, he also owed more than three hundred magic stones!"
Yaro looked surprised: "I see there are quite a few wizard apprentices in your family. Why do you only have this number of magic stones?"
"What's the use of having more wizard apprentices? They are just side branches of 'Ian'. They will only think of ways to put the family's magic stones into their own arms."
"Ian embezzled public funds?"
"Isn't that enough? Doesn't the family belong to the three of us, father and son? It's just that the amount he used this time is too large. A large part of it is the output of the Ghost Orchid Garden, and I will also look for the external debt. If someone borrows it, it means they are using almost all my magic stones. I will use some means to get the finished product back. Is there any problem?"
This is...a lot of information and a lot of questions.
After thinking about it, Yaro skipped the 'property rights division issue' and asked directly: "Then why do you give him such great support?"
Morton smiled bitterly: "I was also led in step by step by him."
