"Come, drink tea. Granny Ironclad motioned for Angels to drink tea.

Angel took a sip, the bitter taste echoing in his mouth. This was the first time he had drunk this tea in Ironclad, and Granny Ironclad generally preferred rose tea.

This tea is somewhat like the morning dew after rain cultivated by Jon's mentor, but this one is more bitter, and it is obviously a mortal tea.

"This is the wizard of Laboratory 13, the tea he grows in his tea garden, and since he left the savage cave, the tea garden has been handed over to my mother-in-law to take care of. The ironclad mother-in-law smelled the fragrance of tea, with a nostalgic expression in her eyes: "I used to drink this kind of bitter tea, but recently, somehow, I like this taste more and more." Maybe it's because people are getting older, and their tastes are changing. ”

The ironclad mother-in-law chattered a lot about the tea garden, and Angel didn't interrupt, accompanied by music and tea, her body and mind were much quieter.

According to Granny Ironclad, Ingres has a rough idea of the wizards of Lab 13, and it sounds like a tea-loving person.

After a long while, Granny Iron Armor finally finished talking about the tea garden.

She pondered for a moment, and suddenly seemed to remember something, and said to Angel, "Coincidentally, the wizard of Lab 13 has something to do with you. ”

Ingres looked suspicious.

Granny Iron Armor smiled, and the wrinkles on her face were huddled together: "He, he's the first student of Sanders, called Su Mishi. Some time ago, there was news that this kid had stepped into the path of true knowledge, and maybe, he would be back soon. ”

"As soon as that kid came back, he must have come to the tea garden first. He's a tea addict. ”

It turned out to be Su Mishi...... A sudden look flashed in Ingres' eyes, according to the relationship, this Su Mishi is indeed related to him to some extent. However, he had heard the other party's name, and the other party did not necessarily know him.

"Thank you, mother-in-law. Angel took a sip of tea and said with a smile.

Granny Iron Armor seemed to mention Su Mishi unintentionally, but Angel felt as if she was mentioning him as well. In particular, the iron-clad mother-in-law deliberately said that Su Mishi loves tea, which is simply reminding him to prepare some tea when he sees Su Mishi.

The ironclad mother-in-law smelled the fragrance of tea, and the tea mist covered her expression: "Thank me for what? The outside world knows these things, I am not mentioning you anything." ”

Regardless of whether the ironclad granny is mentioning it or not, it doesn't really matter. Regarding the return of this senior brother Su Mishi, whom he has never met, Angel actually doesn't care what the other party thinks of him, but if he can maintain a good relationship with his master, he is willing to spend some effort to maintain it.

"At least I don't know. Angels shrugged.

Ironclad Granny sighed, "Alas, you alchemists, you just like to study and don't care about the outside world. ”

"Listen to your mother-in-law, you are still familiar with alchemists?"

As soon as Ingres' question ended, he heard the sound of "crunch" outside the window, and the strange sound of "ding, ding, ding, ding".

Angel turned his head and looked at the closed window, only to see Toby, who had woken up at some point, flapping his wings and stopping by the spider plant outside the window, tapping the glass window with his sharp beak.

"You guy. Ingres laughed and walked to the window.

Paying attention to Toby's side, he didn't notice that there was a momentary pause in the movements of the ironclad granny behind him.

When Angel turned around, Granny Iron was already sipping tea, and she looked the same as before: "Mother-in-law, can I let it in?"

"Of course you can, Toby, this little guy, my mother-in-law loves me very much. Granny Iron Armor put down the delicate porcelain teacup and smiled at Angel.

Angels opened the window, and Toby flew in at once, not taking himself as a stranger, and circled around the room for a long time, landing on the edge of the music box, smiling.

Somehow, Toby likes to listen to music. When I came out, it was still sleeping, and now I look so energetic that I guess I heard the music you played here. Angel smiled and sat back at the table and explained to Granny Ironclad.

"It turns out that little Toby likes music, so you can come often in the future, and my mother-in-law can prepare some instruments or sheet music for you. ”

Ingres shook his head and smiled: "Although Toby likes music, this guy is not full of five notes, and what he sings is no different from noise." ”

Toby yelled at Angel a few times in dissatisfaction, but the palace music playing in the music box quickly attracted his attention again.

"By the way, Granny seems to be familiar with alchemists?" Ingres remembered the question he had asked not long ago.

Granny Iron Armor buried her head and poured tea, a hint of nostalgia flashed in her eyes, the tea was full, and she pushed the cup in front of Toby. Then he replied to Angell: "Not familiar." ”

Ingres was stunned for a moment, what he actually meant by asking this question was that Granny Iron Armor had been in the Source of Mobility for so many years, there should have been a lot of alchemists in the Xenodimensional Laboratory over the years, right?

But he didn't expect Granny Iron Armor to give him an unexpected answer.

Angel nodded, not continuing on the topic, he could tell that Granny Ironclad didn't want to talk about it.

He sat in the tin house for a while, then got up and prepared to leave. Although he had some time to spare, he still had some things to do, such as sending the "Dream Twins" to Grea, and then he had to prepare to refine the illusion for Kagamihime.

Last time, Grea gave him the "mermaid and shellfish soup", and with the aura brought to him by that food, he had some experience of the illusion on the side of the mirror hime. I want to take advantage of the fact that before I leave the savage cave, I want to complete the task given to him by Kagami Hime.

Angel stood up, but Toby looked reluctant to look at the music box, turning back three times at a time.

Granny Iron Armor laughed: "If little Toby likes it, take it." I don't study music either, so drinking tea with music is just a fun. ”

Toby's eyes lit up, but Angel slapped its head violently, and then hurriedly refused: "Mother-in-law, I don't need it, I can go to the twilight well to buy it, and I can also refine it myself." Toby is just greedy, you must not spoil it, otherwise you will be pampered and arrogant, and it will hurt it. ”

Granny Iron Armor thought about it, and she was right. It's not a valuable thing either, and as an Angel alchemist, there's no problem whether you refine it yourself or buy it.

Therefore, the ironclad granny did not insist anymore.

Before leaving, Angel suddenly stood in the doorway and paused, then turned back to the ironclad mother-in-law, and took out a delicate wooden box from the bracelet.

This wooden box is carved from ordinary cedar wood, and it is not even a magic material, it is an ordinary wood carving.

The outside of the box is carved with "bat pattern" and "flowing cloud pattern", both of which are very different from the civilization of the wizarding world, and these two patterns are combined to symbolize: Hongfu Qitian.

This wooden box was carved by Jon before his hands and feet shrunk.

"There are some tea leaves from my hometown, and my mother-in-law likes to drink tea, so I might as well try it. Angels pushed the box in front of Granny Ironclad.

Granny Iron Armor did not refuse, although she is not as fond of tea as Su Mishi, but she is also a good tea person, as can be seen from her willingness to help Su Mishi take care of the tea garden.

"Hey, it's a magic plant that I've never seen before!" Granny Iron Armor opened the box, smelled the strange dry tea with a faint smell of energy, and asked, "What kind of tea is this?"

"Morning dew after the rain. ”

......

The reason why he gave the morning dew after the rain to Granny Iron Armor was because he still had a lot of inventory, and secondly, it was also to repay Granny Iron Armor for telling him about Su Mishi's hobby. Although as Granny Iron Armor said, Su Mishi's hobbies are well known to everyone, but Angel never thought of asking for information about Su Mishi, and if Granny Iron Armor didn't say it, he might not be able to know it in the future.

Finally, he also wanted to see what kind of evaluation a person like Granny Tiejia, who has studied tea, would give to the morning dew after the rain. If the evaluation is good, he can use this tea as a gift for Sumeshi.

Back at Xenolab, Ingres freshened up and left the Source of Mobility with Toby.

He didn't go to Phantom Island for the first time, but turned on the bracelet's special effect - boundless silence, weakened the sense of existence, and walked towards the underground trading market.

Regarding the pirated music box, Angel is still a little concerned, since the ironclad granny said that this music box has been very popular in the twilight well recently, David should have understood, so he is ready to go over and ask about the situation. In addition, Nausicaa and Serum are not in the savage cave now, and the only one who can be called a friend among their peers is David, and Angel plans to get together with David in the past.

Along the way, Ingres often heard his name mentioned, either because of his deeds in purifying the garden, or because of his talent for alchemy, and it can be said that even though Ingres had been back for two months, his reputation had not completely subsided, and it was still praised among the apprentices.

But what these people didn't know was that when they talked about Ingres' name, Ingres himself passed by them with great generosity, and none of them noticed his existence.

When Angel arrives at Promi's Alchemy, he finds a crowd of people standing at the door.

On weekdays, there are very few people who come to Promi's alchemy shop, but suddenly so many people come, and Angel estimates that Master Promi's alchemy works are on the shelves.

But what he didn't expect was that his guess was wrong, and today it was not Master Promi's work on the shelves, but ......

"Mr. David, is there anything else?" A fat man with a fat head and big ears took the disposable space soft sac, and checked it with a little mental power tentacle, and immediately showed a bitter melon-like expression on his face.

David, who was wearing goggles, raised his little face: "No, no, I've been researching new standard weapons recently, and I don't have so much time to refine this kind of gadget." ”

"Mr. Davy......" someone begged, "Our alchemy team is counting on your goods this time, just these three knives, I can't explain it......"

"That's your business, I can only refine so much, love or not. ”

Although David had a straight face, it was not difficult to see his smug look in his shrewd eyes.

David waved his hand: "It's scattered, you guys hurry up, I'm going to close the store early today." Even if you have a pestle here, you will have no goods. ”

Seeing that David had made up his mind, many people who took the goods dispersed in a wail.

After everyone left, David looked smug, humming a little tune, and prepared to go back to the store to close the door and go to the Badie Bar for a good meal.

At this moment, David suddenly heard a familiar voice in his ear.

It was obviously a sparse and elegant voice, but David heard a hint of banter.

"Mr. David, your skills have increased a lot recently?"
