The Memoirs of Cultivating Immortals

Chapter 208 Magic
As night falls and the lights come on, London wakes up.

The bright red double-decker bus moved forward in the rain curtain, and the fine rain fell on the glass windows. After being blown by the wind for a while, it slid backwards, causing ripples on the puddles.

The bus was not crowded, and some passengers were sitting sparsely in every corner, playing with their mobile phones with their heads down, or flipping through newspapers and magazines. No one wanted to chat.

A young single mother leans against the car window, taking a nap in her hard-earned spare time.Her face was haggard and thin, her eyes were sunken, with heavy dark circles under them, and her hands were withered.

Her daughter is about eight or nine years old, wearing a small foreign dress, carved with jade, childish and cute, turning around and kneeling on the bus seat, hugging the back of the seat, leaning on the top of the back with her chin, staring at the round Eyes, looking at the Chinese youth sitting behind her.

The young man was wearing a loose black windbreaker, with short short hair, and he was crossing his legs, admiring the night view of the city through the glass window.

This scene is commonplace, but what really caught the little girl's attention was the young man's eyes.

It was a look mixed with joy, teasing, surprise, and interest, just like a drunkard discovering a treasured bottle or an urchin discovering an expensive toy.

At the same time, he was also holding a black marker pen, writing and drawing on an open map of London, and marking various marks on the city streets like densely packed blood vessels.

The little girl tilted her neck to see the content of the mark clearly, but obviously the degree of difficulty of this movement was too high, so she could only softly ask: "What are you doing?"

Li Ang turned his head and said with a smile, "I'm admiring this city."

The little girl raised her eyebrows, "Are you a tourist?"

"That's right." Li Ang smiled gently, "It's my first time in London, and I haven't seen the world before."

The little girl said "Oh" and thought for a while before asking, "What did you draw on the map?"

"I found something in London that I thought was interesting."

Li Ang's smile was quite bright, and he added: "Whenever I find them, I will mark them on the map.

Like vampires, werewolves, wizards, mages, clerics, agents, evil spirits."

This irrelevant vocabulary is a bit bizarre for children, so that the little girl's single-threaded brain must work at full capacity to filter and filter the relevant information usually received.

The little girl blinked in confusion, and looked at the other party with distrust.

"What I said is true." Li Ang nodded solemnly, and said solemnly: "London really has these monsters, just like there is really Peppa Pig."

"Peppa Pig is fake." The little girl's eyes became more and more distrustful, and she said seriously: "It's just for children."

"No, Paige is real." Li Ang replied equally seriously: "Actually, Paige also has a long-lost brother named Zhu Ganglian, who is a big monster who can eat five hundred pigs with one mouth." .”

In order to enhance his persuasiveness, Li Ang also deliberately put on the shape of a bloody mouth.

"Liar." The little girl chuckled and replied in a low voice, "Zhu Gang is also a pig, so why does he eat pigs?"

"Zhu Gangli is a cowardly pig, and he has unreasonable thoughts about Page." Li Ang replied solemnly: "Peppa's pig father knows the truth, so he won't let Sao Zhu and Page pair up.

In a fit of rage, Zhu Ganglian ate up the entire pig city. All the pigs in the city died, and none of them escaped. "

Such a gloomy content did not make the little girl have the idea of ​​calling the police, "Crooked, there is a strange sorghum here in the police", but it made her giggle.

Fortunately, her mother, who was sleeping by the window, moved a bit, which made her suppress her laughter in a hurry, and whispered to Li Ang, "Can I have a look at the map you drew?"

"of course can."

Li Ang handed her the map calmly.

"What is this?" The little girl pointed to the location on the map, where the Leicester Square subway station in London is located. At that location, Li Ang drew a top hat with a marker.

"This is where the wizard lives."

Li Ang said with a smile: "As long as you take out your wand and click on a certain wall brick in the Leicester Square subway station, you can enter a commercial street in the wizarding world called Diagon Alley, and there is a bank called Gringotts inside. The gun shop known as Ollivander's Wandshop, the wizard's nightclub known as the Leaky Cauldron."

"Oh." The little girl shrugged, faced with a helpless expression of "whatever you say", and pointed to the Great Russell Square, where Li Ang drew a cumbersome magic circle on a certain house above, " What about here?"

"That's where the mage lives."

Li Ang spread his hands, and said frankly: "There is a very powerful mage living there. I have fought against her once, and I am undefeated."

The little girl pointed to St. George's Cathedral in the Lambeth area again, where Li Ang drew a cross, "What about here?"

"This is the base camp of the clergy." Li Ang spread his hands and said casually, "It is the base of the British Puritans to fight against the forces of darkness."

"Dark forces?" The little girl pointed to a place where a wolf's head was drawn with her baby's fat finger, "For example, a werewolf?"

"No, in London, werewolves are not part of the dark forces."

Li Ang corrected the little girl's fallacy, "Look carefully, there is the city of Westminster, Scotland Yard - most of the werewolves are now the London police.
These werewolf police secretly protect the citizens of London from the dark world, and at the same time cooperate with commanding anti-terrorism affairs, defending royal family members and senior officials of the British government. "

What Li Ang said was too magical, so that the little girl had to digest the huge amount of information in her brain, and said softly, "What about the vampire?"

"Hehe, they are not considered dark forces."

Li Ang pointed to the map with a smile, "These vampires are also in Westminster, and they are quite close to the werewolves."

The little girl followed Li Ang's fingers and said in surprise, "Eh? Isn't this the Capitol?"

"correct."

Li Ang nodded and said with a smile: "Are you surprised? Are you surprised? The members of both houses of Congress are basically vampires.

I was shocked when I first discovered this, but I just didn’t know whether the Lafayette in Buckingham Palace was a noble blood—so the fact that she was on standby for a long time was justified.”

The little girl shook her head, freed herself from this crooked theory, stared at Li Ang and became angry, "You lied."

Li Ang put away the map calmly, and smiled, "I'm not kidding you, London is so magical and realistic."
