Perfume Alchemist

Chapter 6
After looking at the murals in the church for a while, Ah Hao saw someone coming out from behind the altar.

One old and one young.

The one in front should be Wende's grandma, much younger than Ahao thought.

The white hair on the temples was combed neatly behind the head, and the black hair on the top of the head was elegantly styled, looking quite fashionable.

And what followed behind was actually Wen De's mean aunt, holding a plate covered with a red cloth.

"You are Mr. House, aren't you? What a handsome fellow."

Wende's grandma also held a candle and said softly to Ahao.

"Yes, Grandma, just call me Ah Hao."

Wende didn't tell me what his grandma's name was!How can I call grandma directly?
Ah Hao kept complaining about himself in his heart, he felt that the old woman in front of him had a super affinity.

Unexpectedly, Wende's grandma smiled happily after hearing it.

"Heh, what qualifications do you have to be called grandma? You should be called the respected Mrs. Northam." Aunt Wende spoke with a familiar sour taste.

The old woman turned her head and glanced, and Aunt Wende immediately fell silent.

"Ahao, I like that you call me that, you can always call me grandma.

"how old are you?"

"Just turned 18 two months ago"

Wende's grandma, or Mrs. Northon, was quite satisfied when she saw this, "What a good age!"

As she spoke, she stuffed the candle in Ahao's hand, "Take it, you know what you're here for today, right?"

"Well, Wende told me to come and open the door."

Ah Hao looked at the things in his hand, the white candle was carved with fine patterns, and it was held by a delicate silver candlestick.

"That's easy to say, by the way, where's that boy Wende?"

"He went to pack his things, and he asked me to say hello to you, Grandma."

"Hehe, you don't need to say it, I understand."

As she spoke, she sighed, "Hey, it's really hard for him. I hope you can bring him more help, Ah Hao."

"Well, that's for sure." Ahao raised his eyebrows, maybe Wende wanted to help himself purely and sincerely.But others don't think so.

But Ah Hao wasn't going to be an ungrateful person.

"Then let me tell you again carefully, what we are going to do next is the Enlightenment Ceremony. That is what you call opening the door.

"I'll help you see your door later.

"When you see the door, what you have to do is really simple, just hold the doorknob and push it away!"

Mrs. Northam reached out and made a pushing motion.

"It should be noted that if more than one door appears in front of you, then you push the door that looks the largest."

"why?"

"Different doors mean that you have different choices on the road of Alpha.

"And the size of the door is closely related to your potential on this road. So of course you choose the biggest door."

"That's right, I understand." Wende didn't even say such important information!

Ah Hao was going to continue to ask, "What if the doors are about the same size?"

"Of course I chose the one that looks pleasing to your eyes, use your intuition!" Mrs. Nuo Sen pointed to her head slyly.

She walked towards Aunt Wende who had been silent since just now, and lifted the cloth from the plate she was holding.

A small emerald key was revealed.

Emerald-like luster flows on the key.

Mrs. Nuo Sen walked down from the altar with the key and stood in front of Ahao.

"Are you ready? Let's start."

"En!" Ah Hao clenched the candle in his hand.

His legs trembled a little, and an indescribable sense of excitement and anticipation surged in his heart.

Mrs. Nuo Sen held the key high, as if about to open a broken door, and ruthlessly inserted the key into Ah Hao's chest!

"open!"

Ah Hao looked down in shock, Mrs. Nuo Sen shot swiftly and violently at a speed that didn't match her age.

He saw a very surprised expression on his face, and looked down at his chest.Everything is like slow motion.

wrong.How could he see his own face?
Raising his hand, he found himself completely transparent.

He found himself floating above his body like a ghost.

Another candle in his hand was emitting a temperature that made him feel warm.

I haven't had time to be surprised by my own changes.

He saw yellow light gradually gathering in front of him, and the light gathered more and more, gradually forming the shape of a door.

After Mrs. Northam made a move, she changed back to a friendly look.

She turned around calmly, and put the key back on the plate in Aunt Wende's hand.

The emerald key was clean, as if it had never been inserted into anyone else's body.

"Record the dimensions of the door, Vanessa."

"Yes, Mrs. Northam."

From the perspective of Aunt Wende, that is, Vanessa, the boy named Ahao froze in place as if in a daze.

And a transparent him is floating out of the body.

In front of this transparent body, a yellow door of light is gradually appearing.

"It's 2 meters high and less than 1 meter wide, about 0.9 meters." Vanessa smiled sarcastically, "It's a little worse than average."

She was a little relieved. The doors opened by her son were as wide as double doors, and the height reached 3 meters.

The juvenile helper that Wende recruited couldn't pose any threat to her at all.

Even if he succeeds in pushing the door, there is nothing to be afraid of.

Mrs. Northam sat on the altar of the church and said nothing.The yellow light when the door was gathered made her face intertwined with light and dark.

The door in front of Ah Hao's eyes gradually stabilized, except for the light spots floating on the surface, it looked like an ordinary indoor door.

When the door finally gathers a doorknob in the middle left position,
He feels a little disappointed.This is just an ordinary door, not very tall at all.

And there is no situation where many doors bounce out at the same time.

He had no choice at all.

Which teenager has never imagined that he has an open life like the protagonist in the book?

Ah Hao took a deep breath and was about to accept the reality.

At this moment, in the breath he took deeply, he smelled a smell.

Like fragrant ink, like an open page.

He couldn't help turning his head to look around.

Strangely, this was the first time he'd smelled something since he'd become this transparent.

"Sniff, sniff" Ah Hao flitted his nostrils vigorously, trying to find out the source of this smell.

Because it smells so good, it is now like the fragrance of green grass, and it is like the fragrance of wild flowers all over the sky.

Finally he discovered that the source of the smell was behind him.

He turned around, but saw nothing.

He was a little bewildered and wanted to continue exploring.

I also feel that now is a critical moment, and he shouldn't be distracted.

So he tried his best to suppress his wild thoughts, and walked towards the yellow light door in front of him.

When approaching the door, he found that the light door also had a smell.

Like a newly opened book, like newly researched ink. - very much like the smell behind!Just faded a lot!

In a flash of inspiration, he seemed to have caught some clue.

He turned his head abruptly and walked behind him.

The further you go, the stronger the taste.

Like a library full of knowledge, like a dusty secret cellar, like a feast full of taboos.

But more like truth!

He felt that he smelled the truth!
He seemed to be obsessed with chasing after this breath.

Finally, he stopped at a place where there was the strongest smell, one step forward and one step back would make the smell weaker.

But there was nothing in front of him, not the door he expected.

He looked up and saw nothing, turned his head and saw nothing.

He looked around reluctantly, but didn't see any clues.

But he could clearly feel that there should be a door here.

He felt that his nose was more reliable than his eyes.

So he simply closed his eyes.

In the dark horizon, the sense of smell becomes more acute.

He could feel the fragrance coming out vertically.

just like.
There is a crack in the door here, and the scent is constantly overflowing from the crack in the door, spiraling into scent vortices one by one.

He wanted to peek open the door to have a look.

Then he felt his hand was blocked.

With an effort, the real touch came.

So it opened its eyes,
What a magnificent sight!
A door towering above the sky filled all his vision.

Ah Hao didn't know how tall and how big it was, but he only knew that he looked so small in front of it.

It's like an ant standing in front of the giant temple in ancient Greece.

It saw that the two sides of the simple and heavy stone doors were carved with mysterious patterns.

Those patterns are constantly wandering and drifting.Every pattern seems to contain a truth, a story.

Ah Hao couldn't help touching the door with his hand, tears welling up in his eyes.

"Is this my door?"
