Candy Wizard and Travel

"Well, be more specific, such as the way of thinking."

"Well, when your thinking matures, you can understand more information and start to think about other individuals besides yourself and the relationship between people and the world."

"Okay, let me get it straight, adolescence is a time for fantasy.

Their thinking is more mature than that of children - or they think they are mature, they will begin to crave a sense of existence and recognition, expression and self-expression, they will carve words on their desks, like to act, imagine that they are famous magicians, or have experienced various fantasy adventure.

And many of them wrote down those lovely thoughts, hehehe..."

At this point, the master's expression became wild again.

Only then did Xidi learn that she had made a simple puppet to read someone's notes from adolescence three years ago in the park.

——Luckily she at least changed her character name.

But that doesn't stop a grown man from banging his head against a tree in a secluded spot.

Mal was in a good mood those days.

Now, holding this manuscript, Xidi looked at the revised handwriting that looked crooked and shy...

——Read it if you get a chance.

Xidi carefully put the box into a casual satchel and placed it solemnly beside her pillow. She threw the gold bars and other items into the bag where she kept her clothes.

Before going to bed, Xidi organized the records according to her habit. She wrote down the pseudonym used in the notebook to prevent mistakes. She also marked the eel rice symbol on the map, and finally drew a circle.

Meaning: He will come back.

……

Early the next morning, Hidi left this country that worships travelers after registering.

The sun was shining and the temperature was rising. Xidi lowered the brim of her hat to block the light, and at the same time raised the height to avoid being dazzled and hit the tree.

Under the vast sky, groups of migratory birds and travelers were heading in the same direction.

They want to fly to a warm place to spend the cold winter, and Xidi also needs to go to a place where he can feel at ease, so they are traveling together.

It's just that the speed of these gray-white birds is comparable to that of ordinary witches, and the tail of ordinary magicians cannot catch up. No wonder even magicians aspire to become them.

Xidi could fly much faster than them, but the cost was too great and unnecessary. When they got close, he raised his altitude and "courteously" passed by.

These friends are literal friends. If you are not polite, they are not polite either.

Magic power is close to the aura of the forest, so in the wild, as long as the flying magician doesn't make strange movements, they will be regarded as some kind of large similar species.

The gray geese flew past in neat formations, with flutes floating in the air, close enough to see their gray feathers clearly.

"...I wonder what it tastes like."

The idea suddenly came to him.

The head geese shook and sped up.

……

Most of the time he was on the road was boring. Occasionally he saw strange scenery, and Xidi only looked at it from a distance for a while, leaving enough impressions to read and write, and he had no intention of going on.

Towards evening, as recorded on the map, traces of human activity appeared around - obviously cleared plants and smooth roads, and a wooden sign marked the location of nearby countries.

With a dried fish cut into thin strips in her mouth, Xi Di wandered past a maple-red forest. The leaves were as bright as blood, and after a period of frost, they would turn into a dark red with coagulated blood. , it will be much gloomier by then.

Trees in the wild are not so neat, and the golden autumn leaves of other plants are also mixed in. They are all very bright and dazzling after looking at them for a long time.

This is the last brilliant moment of the year.

Hidi slowed down.

The season is almost here in Chongqing Township, and I couldn’t enjoy the maple leaves with Serena this year.

Look, the bright red and golden leaves, the brown tree trunks, the fallen leaves covering the ground, and the blood-stained human figure that is almost covered by the fallen leaves are so beautiful...

Ok?

Her eyes were a little blurry, so Xidi closed her eyes and calmed down for a while, then looked over and saw that it was indeed a person.

His clothes were somewhat tattered and stained with blood, and a gust of wind blew the leaves off his body.

Xidi lowered her height and squinted her eyes slightly in the dazzling light.

"This amount of blood loss... rest in peace, ashes to ashes to dust."

After bowing his head and saying a word of silence, Xidi turned around and left.

"Cough...cough cough!"

The man on the ground suddenly coughed violently, as if to show that he could still be saved.

"..."

"Please...save me..."

The wounded man's voice was very weak. He reluctantly opened his eyes and saw the traveler in the air. But before he could say a few words, he started coughing violently. As if he had squeezed out his last strength, he looked at the visitor as if he were looking at a life-saving straw, and his heart was filled with worry. anxious.

It's the best situation. The other person is as childish and caring as he appears. He falls to the ground and walks up to him with the broom floating aside.

"Are you OK?"

"I...ahem...I need help. There are robbers chasing me in the south!" The man was so angry that he moved his right hand and tried to lift it up. "I have no strength anymore."

One step, two steps...

The sound of crushing fallen leaves gradually approached, and the man trembled his arms as if to respond to the rescuer's kindness.

"——Bring it to you!"

When Xidi walked half way in front of the man, the dying man suddenly stood up, grabbed the slender object in Xidi's hand and pulled it over.

"Ha! Boss, you are an idiot again, you got the magic wand!"

There were "rustling" sounds all around, and one man after another emerged from the hole covered with dead leaves. Their eyes lit up after seeing Xi Di dressed in an exquisite long-distance running that symbolized a magician.

"Hahaha! You did a good job, you did a good job - what the hell did you do?"

The man who was probably the boss came over and patted the man who was pretending to be dead. When he was about to take the wand and break it in a demonstrative manner like the previous times, he found that there was something wrong with the thing he was holding.

"No matter how hungry you are, you can't just grab other people's things. You can learn from the little dog. If you kneel down and beg me, there will still be dried fish."

Xidi mocked like this, looked down, frowned, took out a handkerchief and wiped her fingers. When she just replaced the wand, her saliva got on her hands.

He thought that the other party would at least continue to act for a while, but since the other party did not cooperate with the performance, he could not turn a blind eye.

Come to think of it, bloodstains that cannot even be adhered to by leaves, clothing of mixed styles, fallen leaves from the grove that cannot be collected even if all the leaves are removed... Such traps are full of loopholes, and it is too much for him to expect the executor to be sophisticated.

"Dried fish? Dried fish! Damn you brat!"

The boss grabbed the white dried fish and tried to break it angrily, but the dried fish was no longer brittle after heating, like some people, it bends as soon as it is broken.It felt so bad that the boss was so angry and anxious that he simply threw it to the ground and stamped it, crushing it into the soil and leaves.

"I hate people who waste food... Forget it, I guess you won't listen. It's the last chance. I'll be more lenient now and I'll be gentle. You just said 'again', right?" Hidi raised her wand. .

Of course, these bandits ignored him completely and even stared at the exquisite wand inlaid with gems in his hand, showing strong greed.

The boss raised his hand and the bandits raised the guy.

is the gun.

"Stupid magician, times have changed!"

……

Chapter 29: Solidified in winter

"Although I don't know how you found it, there is no difference under the gun. It's just a pity that the thing will be smashed."

With that said, they distanced themselves very skillfully, took out the paper bag and filled the barrel with powder and lead shot.

"call--"

Xidi really wanted to say something, so she recalled the scene when everyone encountered thieves when he was in the caravan... Forget it, there were too many swear words.

"It's really underestimated."

He said no more and waved his wand gently, and a soft white mist slowly spread.

"Scared stupid?"

"This is the first time I encountered such a weak magician, hahaha!"

"Be careful not to spread too much, maybe it can still be used..."

The malicious laughter and obscene words would make people frown even if they were heard as his last words.

"——Bang bang bang!"

The smoke dispersed, and the projectiles crashed into the drifting white mist. Xi Di waved her wand gently to ease the impact. The bullets fell into the water like pebbles, and there was no movement after the sound.

The boss was the first to react. Can he still live to this day despite being wanted by so many people? Can he still be loyal?Of course it's because of caution and cunning.

Seeing that the opportunity was not good, he retreated decisively without even the intention of alerting his accomplices. If his men died, they would die.

But it was too late, the white mist was disturbed, a certain delicate balance had been broken by external forces, the shape was pale and distorted, and it rushed towards the face like a wild beast.

In a moment that only thinking can reach, some people thought of the winter in their hometown.

Immediately, the extreme low temperature destroyed all perception at the moment of contact, so fast that the nerves had no time to transmit information. The last thing they felt was the warmth of autumn.

"Ugh-"

The total amount of magic power was not much, and it only lasted for a moment. Then the wind ruffled and blew away the cold air, and only the shuddering low temperature remained here.

"Click, click."

The leaves fell one by one, and there was a hard sound when they hit the ground.

"Pfft."

The few robbers who turned around and ran away kept their postures stiff. Under the influence of gravity, they fell to the ground like sculptures, falling into pieces without any liquid flowing out.

Instead, a whole corpse was left in place - at least for now. Xidi didn't know what it would look like if it melted later.

The worst kind is the one that runs fast but doesn’t get out yet.

The one called the boss was lying on the ground. Under the control of some magical power of the human body, he held half of his body with his hands and tried to move far away. His internal organs, intestines and vague flesh and blood were dragged on the ground. The heat dissipated and solidified on the frozen soil. Leaving a dark red trace.

Taking the area below his waist as the boundary, it was like a scene of bitter cold hell.

Xi Di sneezed, wrapped her robe tightly and came out from the other side.

"The sun is so warm."

He narrowed his eyes in enjoyment.

Losing strength, the evil-ghost-like boss raised his head, his blue-white face frozen, and only a pair of eyes staring at the person in front of him, as if he wanted to engrave him into his deepest nightmare.

His chest no longer rose and fell, but a weak voice came stubbornly:

"Kill...you...murderer..."

Xidi knelt down, cut a piece of dried fish in front of him, held it in her mouth, chewed it, and responded perfunctorily: "Oh."

That was it until he died.

Magic is so convenient, even he, who finds it troublesome to kill chickens, can easily deal with big guys.

Many people have taught Hidi to value life, including Grandpa, Fran, Mal, Serena, Aunt Elinor, Uncle Heyman... so he started with the safest and largest range of destructive magic.

When I was young, the caravans showed me how to deal with bandits: catch them, cut their throats, and hang them on a tree on the trade road. In order to avoid causing trouble to the surrounding areas, no one can let go.Road safety relies on such signs to warn.

After a little activity, Xidi felt warm.

This trick was used when he was young. Only now that he has practiced it again has he realized how difficult it is. To form the magic power into such a delicate structure, he can only do it when he is lucky. If the structure is wrong, it is very common. Ice edge magic, that might be easier for them to accept.

Accept your own death.

Xidi speculates that the prototype of magic is a phenomenon called "frost cloud".

There is some kind of special cloud very high in the sky, which will freeze instantly after a slight touch. There are many magicians who have been frostbitten if the protection is not tight enough.

With the help of magnifying glass magic, people discovered that they were extremely low-temperature, extremely tiny water droplets. Normally, they should have been in the state of ice crystals, but they did not solidify for some reason, maintaining a magical balance.

And under the catalysis of magic power, the temperature can be even lower. If the surface of those water droplets is carefully covered with magic power, it can be stabilized, just waiting for a slight external force to hit -

The blocked low temperature will spread instantly, turning the surroundings into a snow country, and the magic power that restrains the water droplets will explode at that moment. The extremely subtle force usually does not cause much damage - in normal people, unfortunately most of the time it has already It was a lump of solid ice. After a dense and slight vibration, it was no longer visible to children.

Xidi only connected with his magic after reading it in a book. The older he grew, the more strange he felt to his young self.
