To leave the continent behind is to stay away from those troubles for a while. When a group of people followed Tolkien to his home in Oxford, the owl who mailed Hogwarts had arrived early.
Tolkien rented a house next to Oxford University. It was a two-story building. Each room was not big, but full of warmth. Edith is a beautiful intellectual woman, the so-called hostess of the family. She is very enthusiastic about the friends her husband brought back from the army. "Welcome to our house. Please sit down and I'll prepare hot tea for you. "Black tea?"
"Whiskey is fine if possible." As soon as Logan finished, Zhao Mai glared at him: "what are you doing? I'm just telling the truth."
"It doesn't matter. The family is ready, right?" As soon as Tolkien finished, he saw the sadness between his wife's eyebrows. But Edith nodded, "no problem. There's whiskey."
"Ma'am, we're going to bother for a few days. We're in a lot of trouble, so we brought some of our own things." Zhao Mai said very politely, "I'll ask the servant to carry some things down. Do you have a storeroom here?"
Zhao Mai and others went to Britain by boat, and "the · Che" drove to Britain from the bottom of the sea, with all kinds of things they bought in the French market. Zhao Mai knew that all kinds of materials were in short supply during the war. If the United States had not brought a lot of supplies when it joined in the later period, the life of the British and French people would have been more difficult than it is now. In line with the idea that the precious stones that can't be spent are just stones, Zhao Mai never leaves the storage cabinet on the car empty. After a while, all kinds of tins, sugar, honey, long-term preserved bacon and ham were moved into Tolkien's kitchen.
"John, come and help me." Edith found a chance and asked her husband secretly, "what's going on? The maid said, is all this for us? I have a look. These things are worth it in the black market... "
"Shh, it's OK. Mike is Chinese. These are their manners. If you don't take it, they will feel slighted. " Tolkien explained, "I'll accompany him around for a while, so you can take it."
"Are you going out? You just came back
"Don't worry, this time it has nothing to do with the war. We're traveling, and we're looking for some information for my research."
"You promise?" Edith said, "you were lucky last time. When I heard that you were sick, I thank God for letting you get out of that killing place. "
"I won't go to war. I know a group of good people who are trying to end this battle as soon as possible, and they promise me that this year will be the last year of the world war. " "And you've read the latest newspaper," Tolkien said. "We're going to win."
"But I have a bad feeling. I had a dream that the cloud did not dissipate, but was covered by the black cloud of death. The war is not over, it's worse. You must not leave England, please
"Well, I promise you, I won't leave England this time." Tolkien kisses his wife on the forehead: "prepare your specialty for us. I'll prepare drinks for them."
"Ah, by the way, a letter came to you this morning. I left it on the fireplace at the door." Edith said with a smile, "it's like it's from some school. I haven't heard of it at all."
"It could be the special school I contacted, Hogwarts." Tolkien finally decided to keep his magic study secret for the time being, at least learn one or two magic and then tell his wife.
Logan scoffed at going to Magic School: "learning magic? What's the use of that? Is it bulletproof? " He looked at Zhao Mai: "don't you already know magic? Why do you still learn it?"
"No, I call it psionic power, not magic." Zhao Mai took the letter from Tolkien and read it. It said that considering the age of him and Tolkien, I hope they can arrive at Hogwarts before March 1 to have a trial study, and then take the cram examination at the end of June to officially determine their grades.
At the back of the letter are the items to be purchased, the method of purchase, the ticket to Hogwarts and the location of the station.
"It's not magic. Why do you learn so much?" Logan shook his head: "and you are going to learn magic. Why do you want to practice fighting skills with me? You can't chew too much!"
"I still have to strengthen my physical fitness. We have a Chinese saying that skills are not enough to support me." Zhao Mai closed his eyes and swept his fingers over the letter paper, feeling the residual energy fluctuation. Unfortunately, this is just an ordinary letter. Zhao Mai can't find anything unusual.
"Today is February 3rd. We need to be there by the end of February." Tolkien looked at the calendar and said to Zhao Mai, "there are still some things to deal with between me and the University, so we need to wait in Oxford for a week or so, and then let's go to London? I want to start learning as soon as possible. At least I have to preview the relevant knowledge first. "
"I have no problem." Zhao Mai folded the letter and returned it to Tolkien. "One week is enough. I'll try to learn what Logan can do at last."
"Well, it seems that we are going to separate in a week.""Of course, you two are going to school, and you've just come down from the battlefield. I'm not stupid enough to leave you in Oxford." Zhao Mai said to Logan, "the natural force is constantly cursing you and making you go on the road of destruction. I'm not sure when it will prompt you to do something I won't forgive. "
"For example?"
"For example, to a friend's wife..." Zhao Mai said to Logan, "I don't trust you until you learn the psionic powers."
Logan jumped out of his chair and said, "Hey! What do you mean, you look down on me so much? "
"Yes, I'm not sure, so let's have a fight." Zhao Mai hooked his finger to Logan: "I promise I won't use psychic powers to deal with you. Do you dare to come?"
The more familiar I am with Logan, the more I can feel the instability in him. Zhao maijing was cursed by the blasphemous magic of atas, and he found something similar in Logan. With the constant experience of this eternal curse, Zhao Mai gradually understood a truth: eternal life needs the support of the corresponding spiritual realm.
Just as the corresponding martial arts requires a corresponding state of mind, immortality, as the desired effect of all creatures, also requires an equivalent state of mind. Zhao Mai has been able to live forever technically, such as becoming a ghost or spiritual element, and then maintaining that state. But he also knew that both undead and elemental creatures would affect a person's state of mind and make him "abnormal" slowly. The undead will be crazy and evil, not only determined by their physical state, but also by their mental state.
It's very easy to get extra life from Logan. You only need to draw some of his blood, and then use the natural force to enhance the vitality of life. Although the more times you use it, the worse the effect will be, Zhao Mai estimates that you can have an extra 60 years of life. Moreover, this 60 years is not to delay aging, but to maintain youth.
Addo and dogian are mentally deficient. They are more likely to maintain a kind of "ignorance" and "innocence", so prolonging their life will not change their state of mind. Grain Reserve is a dog. Although it is smarter, it should be OK. Zhao Mai is going to talk with Logan. He bought some "blood bottles" from him and put them in a taxi for a rainy day.
