Turning his head to look at Galie, Richard said loudly: "Galie, you go and tell the Marquis of Wei'an, and say that I thank him for his kindness, but because I have some things to do, I won't bother."

Also, tell Harry and Cathy that I probably won't have time to teach them in the near future. If they want to learn, they can take a look at this codex I gave them. ”

As he spoke, Richard took out a papyrus scroll from his bosom and handed it to Gared.

Gareel took it and nodded, indicating that it had been noted.

Richard waved his hand: "Go ahead." ”

"Yes. Galead turned and left.

When he reached the door, he heard Richard instruct again: "By the way, at dinner, let the kitchen make the food a little more sumptuous, and let everyone in the manor gather together to eat, and it should be celebrated 'Saturnalia'." As for me...... Don't worry about it, I'm busy. ”

Gareh stopped, turned his head to look at Richard, and was a little stunned. After a while, he nodded, "Yes, master." With that, he left.

Richard watched Garrow leave, returned to his desk in the study, and sat down.

Picked up the tea, which was already a little cold, drank it one sip at a time, and stayed alone for a while.

He didn't say anything, he didn't show any expression, he just kept quiet.

After a long moment, Richard stood up in silence and walked out the door, leaving the Blue Lagoon Manor. After casting a spell, he flew into the air and headed to the Shambhala mines.

......

When I arrived at the Shambhala uranium mine, it was already evening, and the whole mine was filled with a lively atmosphere.

The owner of the mine, Waltz, is obviously a native of the local area, and he attaches great importance to the "Saturnalia Festival", so he deliberately raised the level of food in the canteen to celebrate the miners.

The miners were very happy and excited about the free meal, and this emotion invisibly infected the big yellow dog of the old man of the lich. As a result, the big yellow dog ran happily all day long, howling a few times at every turn.

"Wang!

"Whoa!

Don't be in a hurry to howl, but the place where you howl happens to be in front of Pandora's door, it's not right.

This seriously affected Pandora's way of thinking.

So when Richard saw Pandora, he saw Pandora running around the mountains chasing the big yellow dog of the old man of the lich, ready to teach him a lesson.

Pandora's speed of chasing was not fast, and she could have easily caught up with the big yellow dog, but she deliberately maintained the same speed as the big yellow dog, forcing the big yellow dog to run all the way to foam at the mouth.

On a small hill, the old man Ah Fu looked at these, blew his beard angrily and glared, and couldn't help but say to Richard who arrived: "Hey, you see, you little girl is really too much." Isn't that dog of mine, just because today is the 'Saturnalia Festival', and eats a lot of meat and bones, and screams a few more times when she is happy, is it worth her like this!"

After complaining for a long time, the old man suddenly turned to Richard and asked, "By the way, you know that today is the 'Saturnalia Festival', right?"

"Yes. Richard nodded.

"Alas. The old man sighed, shook his head, and said with some emotion, "I really can't understand why there is this festival, which makes my dog unlucky." I remember in my time, there was no 'Saturnalia', but there was a 'Resurrection'. The time is March 3 every year to celebrate the arrival of spring, the revival of all things, and pray for a good harvest. ”

"That doesn't sound like that. Richard said.

"That's weird!" The old man of the lich rolled his eyes and vetoed flatly, "'Recovery Festival' is 'Recovery Festival', 'Saturnalia' is 'Saturnalia', how can it be the same!"

"It's not the same, but it's also somewhat similar, and you can celebrate Saturnalia as a 'Resurrection Day'. ”

"Impossible. Once again, the old man of the lich vetoed, looking stubborn, and said, "Even if I really celebrate Saturnalia as a 'Resurrection Day', my memory will tell me for the first time that it's a joke." The memory is modified, and the soul will also perceive the slightest bit of wrongness, so that I understand that it is all fake.

Only on March 3rd is the real 'Recovery Day', and only then will I celebrate. But it's a bit of a ghost that in this day and age, no one even knows about the 'Recovery Festival'. During the day, when I asked people around, they were all shaking their heads. In other words, there is no second person to celebrate the 'Day of Recovery' with me. ”

"Perhaps, that's the price. After a pause, the old man said sadly.

"The price, the price of being a lich?" replied Richard.

"Yes, the price of being a lich. The old man nodded, "I remember someone telling me that becoming a lich does give you a long life, almost eternal life. But in the process, there are also unbearable costs.

That is, I can only watch all the familiar relatives and friends die one by one, and even after waking up from a long sleep, the whole world has changed dramatically, completely strange, just like it is now - a new era. ”

"So, you kind of regret being a lich?"

"Regret?" the old lich's expression was a little complicated, "Seriously, I'm not sure. However, it is clear to me that the current era is not as good as mine. ”

Richard pursed his lips, looked at the old man and asked, "If there's a chance, well, I mean if." If you had the option to go back to your time, would you do it?"

The old lich man was stunned for a moment, and did not answer immediately, but fell into serious thought.

After a while, he said, "Originally, I woke up before and was a little happy to know that this was a new era. Because of the new era, there are no more enemies from the past, and there is no need to worry about being hunted down.

But now that I think about it, even if there is an enemy, it is better in my time, after all, the enemy at least knows me. If there really is a chance you say, I think, I will choose to go back, and even I can choose to lose all my extraordinary powers.

You know, I had a dream the other day. That is, I went back to my childhood, and I was not checked out by the wizarding organization called the 'Convent of the Virgin of Maria', and I stayed in the town and lived a life of inactivity.

When I grew up, I married the fat cousin who liked me and gave birth to several very naughty children. Finally, at the age of fifty, he got a serious illness and died, living the life of an ordinary person. There is nothing wrong with thinking about this kind of life. ”

After finishing speaking, the old man suddenly laughed at himself, looked at Richard and said, "But anyway, there is no chance for you to say it, and I can't go back at all, right?"

Right...... Richard was about to reply, when he suddenly saw the old man standing up excitedly, glaring down the mountain, and said angrily: "Hey, little girl, stop! You don't see that my dog is collapsed, and you are still bullying it." Hell, you're still pulling it, you're ...... It's too much!"

At this time, at the bottom of the mountain, the big yellow dog was completely tired and lying on the ground, and Pandora was fiercely picking on the dog's hair.

The old lich man shouted a few words, and when he found that Pandora was ignoring him, he angrily complained to Richard beside him, "Hey, you have seen it all. Are there any rules, are there any rules?

As a result, after talking for a long time, without waiting for Richard to answer, the old man of the lich turned his head and saw that Richard had stood up and quietly walked away.

"What are you doing?" asked the old man in a loud voice.

"Of course there's something to do. Richard said as if he didn't want to get involved in the dispute - after all, it was a dispute between the lich and the dragon and the dog, and walked towards the underground factory of the mine.

As he walked, hearing the screaming of the big yellow dog and the annoyance of the old man of the lich behind him, Richard suddenly felt that this festival was still very lively, and couldn't help but smile slightly.
