Chapter 4 Teacher(1/2)
Martin watched the vine-like secret text appear and disappear, and his scalp suddenly became numb.
After more than ten seconds, a cold feeling came from the back.
He realized that his back was already wet with cold sweat...
This is the second sentence!
But, isn’t it a sentence every three days?
Why was it ahead of schedule?
This means that the remaining time is shorter...
At most ten days left!
The newspaper was pinched with a few finger holes, and Martin was in no mood to continue reading, and roughly kneaded it into a ball and threw it into the garbage dump on the street.
It's time to speed up!
If this plan is useless, maybe you can think of other ways...
For a moment, the clouds shrouded in his heart became even stronger, making him feel breathless.
After drinking a bowl of hot seafood porridge, the cold sweat was steamed dry by the heat. After drinking the fresh and thick hot porridge, Martin felt much more comfortable.
Not far away, a figure on the corner of the street attracted him.
He was a teenage child with a thin figure, a pale complexion, and his clothes were covered with patches, but he could barely cover his body.
He was playing under a tree with a puppy.
This state of joy seems to make him forget his difficult life.
The puppy is also thin, but it looks extremely happy under the teasing of the little master.
Martin's eyes lit up.
It's you!
Wow!
Perhaps because he noticed a trace of malice, the puppy suddenly shouted at the boy, ran behind him and looked at Martin alertly.
But it has no deterrent effect.
The boy looked back and saw a young man dressed in ordinary clothes standing behind him not far behind him and staring at him.
Wow!
The puppy was still barking.
"Rubin, don't shout!"
The boy held it in his arms and comforted it with his hands, while asking slightly restrainedly: "Sir, is there anything wrong?"
Then he saw an inexplicable smile on the man's face, and a silver coin flew out of his hand and fell into his arms.
"Ask you a few questions, and there will be a reward later."
Martin's voice was full of temptation.
The boy hurriedly grabbed the silver coin and looked straight at Martin.
This is his father's salary every day.
If it were changed to rye bread, it would be enough for a family of three to eat for a few days!
"Did you keep this dog yourself?"
Martin asked with a finger.
The boy quickly said truthfully: "Sir, I picked it up, but I didn't eat it at home, so I could only take it to the beach to catch crabs."
Martin looked at the puppy in the boy's arms. It was still baring its teeth and making a rumble and threatening sound, no matter how the boy comforted it, it would be useless.
Animals are always more alert than humans, especially this little guy in front of him.
When he found a man and a dog looking at each other, the little boy quickly explained: "Sorry, sir, Rubin is not like this usually. He is very obedient and never bites."
Martin shook his head and said lightly: "It's okay!"
...
A few minutes later, the boy held a gold and a silver coin tightly, his hands trembling, and his expression seemed quite confused.
However, after seeing the shiny portrait of Charles II on the gold coins, he became excited again and quickly disappeared on the street corner.
Heart that died of betrayal!
The point is betrayal.
Only with trust can be called betrayal.
The puppy's trust in its owner is very suitable.
On the contrary, in humans, this kind of trust is even more difficult to find.
The most important thing is that the ritual materials are not limited, they must be the heart of human beings...
This is not a loophole. The material only needs to meet the limited conditions. However, under normal circumstances, it is easy to think of deviations.
Martin carefully took out the puppy's heart wearing rough rubber gloves.
The crimson purple heart muscle had stopped beating, but he could still feel the warmth above.
When he used a gold coin in exchange for the child to strangle the puppy, Martin felt a little guilty.
Such behavior is somewhat similar to the devil!
However, such emotions just flashed by.
He has not yet escaped danger and may lose his life at any time. What qualifications do he have to pity?
Only by living and living strong can we talk about other things!
After taking out the heart and waiting for the blood to dry, Martin put it in a wooden box and keep it.
Then he found a sandy field, buried the puppy's body, and stayed silently for a minute before turning around and leaving.
In the afternoon, Martin returned to the street corner in the morning again.
The little boy was waiting for him with a hesitation look on his face, and he still had a cloth bag in his hand.
"Sir, this is the four-leaf clover you want!"
When the boy saw Martin, he immediately showed joy.
He carefully opened the cloth bag, which contained two extremely complete alfalfa plants and four-leaf plants.
After seeing it, Martin nodded and happily handed him the promised reward.
Two shining silver coins.
The little boy couldn't suppress his excitement and thanked Martin one after another.
"Go home quickly!"
Feeling the faint eyes around him, Martin reminded him kindly, and at the same time he quickly left here.
There was only the last gold coin left in the wallet, but thankfully, the heart and four-leaf clover have been found.
Glow Wood also needs a final payment of forty gold coins, so don't worry about it for now.
Then, the four materials are left with the blood of pure dark horses waiting to be collected...
The next morning, before the alarm clock rang, Martin got up early.
Today, he was dressed formally.
The dark brown robe, with circles of patterns, belts, shoulder bags, and a thick history book in the right hand...
After dressing up, I had a little more bookish aura on my body.
After breakfast, a carriage slowly stopped outside the door.
Although I was short of money and even had a lot of money needed, I wouldn't feel wronged.
"Mr. Martin, please."
When I opened the door, there was already a carriage waiting outside.
But the coachman's polite look surprised him a little.
Although Martin inherited the original owner's impression, the servants of the Earl's family were usually respectful to him, the coachman seemed to be a little too far today.
really!
When he stepped onto the carriage, lifted the curtain and got into the carriage, the answer was revealed.
A pretty figure was sitting in the car and waving at him with a smile, and greeted sweetly:
"Teacher, I'll pick you up in person!"
Martin raised his eyebrows, then showed the correct reaction of the original owner, sat down opposite her slowly, and said lightly.
"Miss Bosen, IMHO, you just want to take the opportunity to go out and stroll."
After the lie was exposed, the girl raised her eyebrows playfully and said coquettishly: "Clin, call me Clin!"
"Teacher, we are all so familiar with each other, don't be so polite..."
Looking at the girl's lively and weird face, Martin couldn't help but rub his eyebrows.
"By the way, teacher, are you really healthy? Why don't you take a few more days off? Anyway, Rocky and I will have no problem teaching by ourselves!"
To be continued...
