"Heitan, shut up." Julian, who was wearing a black mage robe beside him, muttered in a sharp voice, with a solemn expression. He looked at the father and daughter holding hands and walked away, and muttered: "The magic wave is just strong enough, this Is the little girl a genius? Or is that man a hidden master? "
"It's really turned into black coal now." The cuckold parrot looked at the black crow whose fur was burned off, giggling, full of schadenfreude.
"Old man, please call me His Highness Fama Odin. My palace was destroyed by that little guy. Get me a new one quickly, and you'd better make me a gorgeous royal robe. , to prevent my beautiful body from being seen by others." The black crow said with some dissatisfaction, sniffed around, and shouted again: "Damn it, where does the smell of roast chicken come from?"
"I'll feed you a new experimental product if I don't stop talking nonsense." Julian turned his head and glanced at the black crow, his face expressionless, and his voice as sharp as an evil ghost crawling out of hell.
The black crow was immediately frightened, raised his legs and moved to the side, and said a little nervously: "Then... then at least give me two leaves, otherwise it will be too unsightly to stand here."
"Mung Bean, go find him two slices." Julian said, turned around and walked towards the store, muttering to himself: "Strange, why didn't you notice the magic fluctuations over there before? Maybe you can talk to him Learn, learn, learn.”
"Your Excellency Julian, please call me Sunny next time you ask me to help." The green-feathered parrot said cheerfully, turned its head to open the lock on the birdcage, fluttered out, and took it in its mouth after a while. The two leaves came back and were placed next to Hei Tan, then they flew back to the birdcage, locked the door, and combed their hair elegantly.
"I didn't expect that this king would fall to this level." Heitan sighed, looked around, lowered his head, picked up two leaves and wrapped them around his body to protect the critical position.
Mag led the happy Amy towards the square, and set fire to the black crow. Amy was obviously in a good mood, skipping forward, stopping from time to time to wait for Mag, and then continued walking forward. go.
Mag brought ten gold coins in his pocket. Although gold coins were quite important to him now, if Amy liked or wanted anything, he still wouldn't hesitate at all.
But the little guy is very sensible and doesn't spend money frivolously. After wandering around for half an hour, he just asked for a small puppet that could move by pulling strings.
Then Mag took Amy to the largest vegetable market in Aden Square. Unfortunately, they didn't even find a swan, let alone an ugly duckling.
There was a little duck, but Mag was worried that when the little duck grew up and didn't turn into a white swan, Amy would think he was lying to her, so she didn't buy it.
The price of ordinary vegetables in the vegetable market was very cheap, but the system said that ingredients bought from outside could not be brought into the kitchen, so he stopped thinking about buying vegetables.
"Father, can't we buy the ugly duckling today?" At the entrance of the vegetable market, Amy looked up at Mag, her expression a little disappointed.
"The boss said that the ugly duckling has not been born yet, so it may be a little later to buy it." Mag nodded, thinking about how to comfort Amy, who was full of expectations. It was already early autumn, and there were many places near the City of Chaos. Swans are rare, let alone cygnets, and they may not be found for a long time.
"Hey!" Before Mag could comfort her, Amy's eyes were attracted to a herbal medicine stall on the roadside. She jumped over to it, then squatted down directly, looked at it with her eyes wide open for a while, and then turned around and rushed Mag waved and said, "Father, come and see, this must be the ugly duckling's egg."
"Huh?" Mag walked over. Sitting next to the stall was a dark-skinned, muscular middle-aged man who was weaving a small basket out of hay. He must be a herb collector. His hands were covered with calluses left by climbing ropes. There were sacks on the ground. Bags of herbs, and a small pile of grass at his feet, with a large off-white egg the size of a bowl on top.
"Father, let's buy this egg back. You said there is no ugly duckling now, so we can go home and hatch it." Amy pointed to the egg on the ground, looked up at Mag and said, full of expectation.
"Okay." Mag smiled and nodded. The little guy has been disappointed many times today. He wanted her to go home happily. He turned to the herb picker and asked: "Boss, what kind of egg is this?" ?”
"Well, I don't know much about this. I found this on a cliff yesterday when I went to collect herbs. It's not that birds can't get up to that place. It's probably just a bird egg. This thing is very nourishing. "The herb collector said with a naive smile.
"How much is it?" Mag's eyes lit up. If it were a bird egg, it would be about the same as a swan. And judging by the size of the egg, it is estimated that it will grow bigger than an ostrich in the future. If it is well tamed, it can be used as a pawn for Amy. mount.
"If you like it, little girl, just...just three gold coins." The herb collector looked at the expectant Amy, smiled and scratched his head.
"Okay, three gold coins, please keep them." Mag directly took out three gold coins and handed them to him. Herb collectors walk on the cliffs every day, exchanging their lives for money, and if this is really a big bird egg , three gold coins are really not expensive at all.
"Okay, give this little basket to the little girl. It's just right to hold the eggs." The herb gatherer put the eggs on the ground and the hay into the little basket he had just made, and handed it to Amy with a smile. .
"Xiaomi, thank you uncle quickly." Mag said quickly to Amy.
"Thank you, uncle." Amy happily took the small basket, held it with both hands, and whispered: "Ugly duckling, you have to be good and wait until I hatch you out slowly."
"You're welcome, you're welcome." The herb collector waved his hands with a smile, looked at Mag and said with a smile: "My girl is the same age as her, and she also likes to raise little things, but there are already two monkeys at home, so I won't give them to her. Take it back."
"Yes, the little one has been talking about it for the past two days, hoping that she will like it when she hatches." Mag also smiled helplessly, but looked at Amy with eyes full of doting.
After bidding farewell to the herb collector, Mag originally wanted to help Amy carry the eggs, but she refused. She carried them with both hands with some difficulty, making Mag who was following behind a little worried about whether they would fall to the ground.
After walking back for half an hour, Amy gently placed the small basket on the doorstep, breathed a sigh of relief, looked back at Mag and said with a serious expression: "Father, thank you for buying Amy the ugly duckling." Egg, I will take good care of it from now on."
"Yeah, but the herb collector uncle just said that these are not necessarily the eggs of the ugly duckling. They may be the eggs of other birds." Mag took out a square towel to wipe the sweat on her forehead and said with a smile.
Amy shook her head firmly: "No, Xiaomi believes that this must be the ugly duckling's egg. I will hatch it out, and then slowly raise it to become a white swan, and then...then..."
Then Mag looked at Amy and swallowed.
