king of black mist.

Chapter 132 Sicily
Along the river road, the road paved with bluestone slabs, the street is completely covered by the green leaves of the street trees. It is not a scenic spot, but the locals of Mingcheng know this place.

In the eyes of the locals, any new real estate or villas by the Ming Lake are not as good as a courtyard here.

It's not a matter of price, scenery, or convenience of life. To have real estate here is the "real owner" of Mingcheng, the real old Mingcheng people. Besides, one counts as one, and they are all outsiders.

Discrimination is everywhere.

Qinglan Bookstore is such an ordinary bookstore on Yanhe Road.

A wooden door and a glass wall, the windows are clear during the day, and shrouded in warm and comfortable yellow warm lights at night.

The wind blows through here, and it seems to be much lighter.

The owner of the bookstore is a fairy, the representative of Mingcheng's appearance in the eyes of the older generation of Mingcheng people, the most favorable proof that Mingcheng people are superior to all other races.

On the night of receiving the call from Aferona, Yang Qinglan, a noble Mingcheng native, received Li Changzhou and Li Qianxia in her bookstore (actually, she was going out tomorrow, and she came to explain something to the clerk. Cheating to eat and drink).

The clerk had already left work, and the wooden door was closed. The three of them sat on the long wooden table, each with a cup of milk tea, a dessert, and a few books.

"The first question," Li Qianxia adjusted the glasses on her nose (which did not exist), "Please name the three most famous movies in Sicily and even the whole of Italy."

"'The Godfather', 'The Beautiful Legend of Sicily', and one more—" Li Changzhou, who couldn't name the third one, looked at Yang Qinglan.

Yang Qinglan and him looked at each other, then turned to Li Qianxia and said, ""Paradise Cinema"?"

"Correct! Please listen to the second question." Li Qianxia adjusted her glasses again (which did not exist), "What is the most famous food and dessert in Italy?"

"Spaghetti?" Li Changzhou asked cautiously.

The reason for uncertainty is entirely because the origin of the plane tree is not France, but the United Kingdom.

Dutch peas have nothing to do with the Netherlands. They first appeared in the southern part of Xiaguo, close to Southeast Asia. In English, they are directly called "Chinese peas".

Maybe the pasta is not Italian, but Swiss or Austrian?

However, Li Changzhou's consideration is superfluous.

"Correct. Dessert?" Li Qianxia's sharp eyes turned to Yang Qinglan.

"I know this." Yang Qinglan smiled slightly, "I used to make the dessert menu in the store, and I checked the information on tiramisu, it is Italian."

"Correct!" Li Qianxia raised her glasses again like a female teacher (they don't exist), "What's the climate like in Sicily?"

"Mediterranean." This meant little to Li Changzhou, who was the number one student in liberal arts.

"Best travel season?"

李长昼推算了一下：“每年4、5月、9月、10月、11月。”

"October is here." Teacher Li Qianxia spoke mysteriously and smiled wickedly, not saying whether it was correct or not.

Pushing down her glasses (which were not there), she asked again: "What is the state religion of Italy?"

Li Changzhou looked at Yang Qinglan.

"Catholicism?" Yang Qinglan tried to answer.

"Wrong!" Teacher Li Qianxia pushed down her glasses again (it doesn't exist), "Catholicism is the largest religion in Italy. About 87.8% of Italians believe in Catholicism, but it has not been officially declared as the state religion by the government!"

"This question is level and deceptive." Li Changzhou said to Yang Qinglan with a smile.

Yang Qinglan pursed her lips and smiled, feeling that the two of them seemed to be discussing math problems at the same table in high school (it didn't exist, Li Changzhou was male and female; hers was more upscale, with one desk for each person).

"The last question!" Teacher Li Qianxia's expression and tone became serious, "Who will be responsible for the expenses of going to Sicily this time?"

"Miss Yang?"

"Aferona."

"All correct!" Teacher Li Qianxia quickly slapped the table for fear that someone would change the answer after ringing the bell.

There are only wrong answers to this question, there is no single answer - as long as it is not Li Qianxia, ​​anyone can.

"I want to remind you two," Yang Qinglan held up the water glass, "We are going to grab things, not travel."

Her eyes were mainly on Li Qianxia.

Ever since Li Changzhou said that she was going to Sicily, she was like a monkey in estrus, unable to sit still for a moment—in fact, she had long wanted her brother to use the new version of "Photo Send" to take her around the world.

This is also human nature.

"What grabbing something?" Li Changzhou laughed, "We are going to wipe out the Mafia!"

"Brother, you are still shameless!" Li Qianxia happily praised her brother.

"You can change the word." Li Changzhou's smile deepened.

Yang Qinglan smiled, put down her cup, and said, "Go to bed early."

"I'll wash the cups~" Li Qianxia hummed, "I want to take you to romantic Turkey~", happily put away the plates and cups, and took them to the kitchen sink to wash.

Yang Qinglan got up and was about to put the books on the table (there were three people's books and those taken by guests) back on the bookshelf.

"I'll help you." Li Changzhou followed suit and stood up.

He held all the books in his arms and handed them to her one by one, and Yang Qinglan was responsible for putting them back on the shelf.

"Although," he handed out "The Sea of ​​Life", "we are going to grab something—"

"Didn't you eliminate the mafia?" Yang Qinglan took "Life in the Sea" and looked at him with a smile in her eyes.

"Snatch things." Li Changzhou emphasized again, and continued, "Although we are going to grab things, we can go to see the sea by the way."

Yang Qinglan put "The Sea of ​​Life" into the category of 'social novels'.

"ocean?"

"Yeah." Li Changzhou's voice was a little softer, just like this October night, "Mingcheng doesn't rely on the sea, Prague doesn't have the sea, and Sicily has the sea. Shall we go?"

He handed over "Confessions in the World" again.

Yang Qinglan took it, and looked for the 'Essays' category.

I couldn't find it until she also said in a soft voice: "Okay, I heard that there are many sailboats at the pier there." Only then did I find that the 'Essay Collection' was right in front of me.

Li Changzhou couldn't help chuckling, and looked at her profile with all his attention, as if there was light in his eyes.

Yang Qinglan glared at him lightly in a "glance", took Ji Xianlin's "Time Never Speaks, But Answers All Questions" from his hand, without looking at it, and casually put it into the "Works of Famous Masters" .

Standing on the bluestone slab of Yanhe Road at night, looking from the outside to the inside, the glass window is like a photo frame, framing the two people who are arranging the bookshelves.

◇

Although they said they wanted to rest early, the three of them actually finished their morning classes and set off for Sicily at 12 o'clock.

It was Friday, Li Changzhou and Li Qianxia had no classes in the afternoon, and Yang Qinglan was skipping class, I hope the teacher would not call names.

"Let's go!" Li Qianxia ordered.

The three disappeared in the "Honeypot World".

◇

French writer Maupassant said: "If someone can only stay in Sicily for one day, he asks: Where should I visit? I will answer him without hesitation, Taormina."

Taormina, the most famous resort in Sicily.

When the three of them appeared in this small town built on a hill by the sea, it was 6 o'clock in the morning.

"I have two mornings a day!" Li Qianxia said, looking across the black and white floor tiles in front of her eyes, and then at the Ionian Sea and Mount Etna in the distance.

The more specific location is: April [-]th ​​Square.

On the west side of the square, under a bell tower built in the 12th century, Aferona came alone.

With red hair like waves, she is wearing a slim dress and high heels.

"Master Black Mist." She bent her curvaceous and straight spine.

"En." Li Changzhou responded, "Don't use this address in the future, 'Lord' is my new identity."

"Yes." Yaferona's tone did not fluctuate, and she bent even deeper.

"Find a place to have lunch—breakfast first?" Li Changzhou asked Yang Qinglan.

Yang Qinglan nodded and agreed.

"It is said that Italy is the mother of Western food!" Li Qianxia looked forward to it.

"Master Mosquito, I have prepared the most authentic Italian meal for you, 'Master' and 'Master Xiaoqing'." At this moment, Aferona straightened up and said with a smile.

She leads the way, walking through the empty neighborhoods in the early morning, introducing the small town.

In the city of Taormina, residences, hotels and villas are scattered, extending from the hillside to the beach.

The perennial lush vegetation is dotted between the white walls and red tiles, and then lined with beaches, reefs and the sea, like a huge bonsai carved by hand.

Although it was morning in Italy, Aferona prepared food for the three of them according to the specifications of lunch or dinner.

Before eating, say "Buon appetito!".

"What do you mean?" Obviously there was Aferona, but Li Changzhou wanted to ask Yang Qinglan, a noble native of Mingcheng.

"Eat and drink well." Yang Qinglan ate fried seafood.

"So down-to-earth?" Li Changzhou smiled and picked up the Parma ham on the plate.

After finishing the appetizer and the first course, while enjoying the main course, Aferona introduced the current situation of the Mafia to the three.

Now is no longer the era of the mafia. Before the value game started, there were only three decent mafia left in the whole of Italy.

The "Camora" of Aferona is based in Naples.

Italo Calvino, the leader of the "Ndrangheta" based in Venice.

And "Cosa Nostra" in Sicily - translated into "our own stuff", conveniently called, referred to as "own thing", the leader is Hurd.

The three mafia originally planned to join forces to fight against the church.

"Aren't you religious? Didn't you say that 87.8% of Italians believe in Catholicism?" Li Qianxia was eating 3 mature and bloody Florentine steaks.

Yang Qinglan didn't want this, but mainly seafood.

On the long table, in front of the four people, beef, mutton, lean pork, turkey, frog, fried fish with potatoes or vegetables, grilled chicks, and pickled vegetables are all in abundance.

All kinds of side dishes are ordered between meat and meat.

"Letter." Aferona said, "But this does not prevent us from collecting protection fees, privately arbitrating criminals, and organizing and supervising some illegal agreements and transactions. If the church accepts us, it will make us unemployed."

"The current employment situation is very serious." Li Qianxia drank red wine and nodded in agreement.

She didn't listen carefully at all, her mind was all on the food on the table.

"We originally planned to unite? Does that mean something happened?" Li Changzhou asked.

He is not interested in the affairs of other countries, and what the mafia wants to do has nothing to do with him, unless one day he wins the value game and really becomes the "lord".

"The church is too powerful." Aferona continued.

A red-clothed archbishop came to the door one by one and taught everyone a lesson, even Aferona was no match (before Li Changzhou became the 'lord').

And ask them, on the 10nd day of the Celestial Rose month (October), in the Cathedral of Monreale in Sicily, to bring their sacrifices and offer their faith to the "Lord".

The "Glory Society" and "Self Things" have been sincerely convinced and collected some sacrifices.

These sacrifices are herbs that can improve attributes.

Aferona is Li Changzhou's "mistress", so of course she cannot surrender directly like the other two.

"My lord, these are the herbs I collected with someone. I'm sorry, there are only two kinds." Aferona spread her hands, and five seconds later, two boxes appeared in her hands.

Li Changzhou took it and handed it to Yang Qinglan.

"Fig", 10 points of constitution, 5 points of strength, 5 points of agility, can be refined to improve the body's elixir.

"Poison celery", 10 points of constitution, 5 points of strength, 6 points of agility, also improves the constitution.

Although there are only two plants, they have already spent all of Aferona's energy during this time.

These are two players with a full value in one item, and they can break through the limit at any time!
There are about 370000 species of plants in the world, and the specific number is vast, far exceeding that of human beings.

Counting how many plants there are is as difficult as counting the gravel in the Sahara Desert. It is almost impossible.

There are so many plants, there is no shortage of fine ones (a full value), but if you want to find them, luck is more important than strength.

"Good job." Li Changzhou praised.

Unexpectedly, a subordinate who was accepted casually at the beginning could be of such great use.

Yang Qinglan and Li Qianxia's physique is 8 points and 9 points respectively, both of them need this medicine.

Even if there is no other gain, this trip to Sicily can be regarded as a good harvest. Two points of attributes are equal to a level up.

To rob the other two mafia gangs and loot the Cathedral of Monreale is at least an attribute of more than three points.

Open source is very important in this era when players with three full-value games are afraid to match and just wait for drugs.

Li Changzhou decided to reward Aferona with two skills after finding a Mafia player to experiment with the "Black Fog" ability.

"This is what I should do." Aferona didn't expect new rewards.

The two evolutions of 'Mist of the Gray Fog' made her feel that she had to do something, otherwise it would be useless!
So it took a lot of effort and a little bit of luck to find two kinds of medicinal materials.

"Tell me about the abilities of the other two mafia leaders." Li Changzhou tossed a roast chicken with a knife and fork.

"Yes."
