I weave my destiny in parallel time and space

After resting for two days, Alicia's body improved significantly, but she still had no strength. However, the food in the castle was finished.

Therefore, the purchasing work was left to Char and Arthur.

When we walked out, it was another sunny day in Eagle Point Town. The warm sunshine broke through the white clouds and swayed down, shining the golden light on this coastal town. The blue sea in the distance sparkled under the sea breeze.

Since Xia first came here, he has discovered that the weather in this town seems to be very good every day, and cloudy days are rarely seen.

Xia turned his head and looked up the slope of the town. On the hillside far away from the town, he could see the grapevines arranged neatly all over the mountain.

However, these grapes are not used for eating, but for making wine. Although they are very sweet, they are also very acidic.

The warm, humid climate and abundant water sources make this town a good place for growing grapes. The hillsides and trees can also protect against the wind from the westerly belt.

Although this town is close to the sea, its main industry is wine rather than fishing.

Because the port of this town is a deep-water port and is used by the Britannian army as a military port, many large-scale fishing and net-setting are prohibited. However, fishing is allowed, and fishing can also be done in places farther away. , so fish is also very cheap.

The door in front of him opened, and a woman swept the dust inside with a broom towards the street. When she saw Arthur beside Char, she greeted him warmly.

"Good morning, little Arthur, where is your grandma?"

"She's sick," Arthur said. "She's not feeling well."

"Oh, that's too bad." The woman said lowly, "She was obviously so energetic a few days ago."

After a pause, she asked again, "Do you need me to do anything? I know a very good doctor."

"No need, she's almost fine today." Xia Ya said.

Hearing this, the woman raised her head and looked at Xia Ya. She looked at Xia Ya carefully, and then asked with some doubts.

"You are."

Xia Ya's main activity venue these days is in the imperial capital. The rest of the time he usually spends time sunbathing on the balcony and rarely leaves Eagle Point Town, so people here are not familiar with him.

After a pause, she suddenly said, "I know, you must be Granny Alicia's son!"

"Yes, my name is Xia Ya." Xia Ya nodded with a normal expression.

"I knew it!" the woman said happily, "I didn't expect that she has such a handsome son. Why have I never seen you before?"

"I just arrived." Xia Ya said, "We lived in the Imperial Capital before, but the environment in the Imperial Capital was really bad, the smell of soot was strong, and the winter was too cold, so it was not suitable for the elderly to live.

So I bought a house here and asked her to move here first. "

"That's it." The woman sighed with emotion, "I used to think that it would be pitiful for such an old lady to clean such a dirty house by herself. I thought it would be because her descendants were not filial.

Unexpectedly, she had such a filial son. "

Xia Ya sighed, "I originally wanted to hire two people to clean this house, but I guess the old man didn't want to spend the money, so he did it himself without telling me."

The woman suddenly understood and said with empathy, "Yes, some old people are so stubborn. My mother was like this before she died. They thought they were still young."

"No, he must be tired and sick." Xia Ya said helplessly.

"The old man has recovered from his illness and needs to take good nutrition." The woman said, "I will ask my husband to send you a cod later."

"How can this be so embarrassing?" Xia Ya said with a smile.

"Hey, we are all neighbors, helping each other." The woman said, "And here is close to the sea, so fish is cheaper than in the imperial capital."

Xia Ya smiled and did not continue to shirk her kindness. He dug into his pocket, took out a small object and handed it to the woman.

"Then I'll give this to you as a thank you gift."

The woman curiously took the object, which was a red bracelet with a small bell tied to it. The workmanship was very exquisite.

"This is a gadget I made." Xia Ya said, "In the East, it means health, peace and everything goes well."

The woman looked very happy and said with a smile, "Thank you, I like this gift very much."

Xia Ya nodded to her, and then led Arthur along the slope towards the market.

The woman watched Xia Ya leave, caressed her blushing face, and said with emotion, "What a handsome young man."

"That one should be Mrs. Foster who gave us fish a few days ago, right?" Xia Ya asked.

Arthur nodded, "Her husband is a fish seller in the market."

After a pause, Arthur couldn't help but said, "Grandma Dean said it's wrong to lie."

"Sometimes white lies are still necessary." Xia Ya said seriously, "Otherwise, should I tell her that I am a wizard?"

Arthur nodded somewhat understandingly.

While they were talking, they also came to take the town's market, which is a road extending along the coast. On the left are rows of houses and storefronts, while on the right are rows of houses. The sea, but there are also many vendors setting up stalls there.

It seems that because there is a port, there are also many products, not just fish, but also many products that are not available locally.

Arthur asked suspiciously as he watched Char buy a bunch of miscellaneous parts, such as wire and leather.

"Aren't we here to buy ingredients?"

"Yeah, I'm going to make vinegar wire and stir-fried leather at noon today." Xia Ya said seriously, "This is the wizard's set meal."

He looked at Arthur and teased, "Didn't you always want to be a wizard?"

Arthur's face looked a little pale, "I think I won't be hungry at noon today."

Xia Ya chuckled twice, "Although you can distinguish good from evil, you can't distinguish lies."

"Did you just lie to me?" Arthur responded.

"I don't think even a wizard would like to eat this kind of thing." Xia Ya said, "These are the materials for making Thousand Miles Flying Boots."

"Thousand-mile flying boots?"

Arthur put the joke behind him and turned all his attention to this word.

"What do you do?" he asked excitedly.

He was very interested in these things and had been begging Char to teach him magic during this period.

Xia seemed to want to say something, but suddenly, he took a step back and pulled the confused Arthur towards a fish stall.

"Don't make a sound." Xia Ya whispered, "And don't turn your head."

Arthur seemed to realize something, and his body froze slightly. Although his eyes did not move, the corner of his eye still turned to one side curiously.

His perception was very strong and he noticed something was wrong almost instantly.

Among the people passing by, there are two very special "people" who are looking around, looking for something. They are very tall, wearing gorgeous coachman uniforms, wearing eye patches, and their skin does not look like normal people, but more like It was made of rubber, but no one around noticed it.

As they slowly approached, Arthur's body became stiffer and his breathing stagnated slightly.

Fortunately, the two rubber men didn't notice them. When they were about to arrive here, they seemed to be attracted by something and turned around and left.

Xia Ya quietly stared at the two people's leaving figures, silent and without words.

"What is that?" Arthur asked.

"Servant of the Witch of the Wilderness." Char whispered softly.

Char was not surprised by this. From the moment Alicia came to the castle, the arrival of the Wild Witch was already a matter of time.

"Witch of the Wilderness!" Arthur opened his eyes slightly.

Xia Ya asked with some interest, "Do you know her?"

"Alicia told me," Arthur said nervously, "She said it was a supervillain,"

Xia Ya nodded, suddenly, he said.

"How about eggplant for lunch?"

"What?"

Arthur was a little uncomfortable with Char's jumping rhythm, he couldn't help but said.

"Shouldn't we be concerned about the Witch of the Wild right now?"

"Then you won't have lunch at noon?" Xia Ya said seriously, "You can only have the strength to deal with bad guys after you have a full meal, right?"

The corner of Arthur's mouth twitched slightly, and he complained, "Alicia said you are heartless, and it seems so."

"Then do you eat eggplant?" Xia Ya asked again.

"Don't eat it!" Arthur shook his head. "Eggplant is the most unpalatable thing in the world."

"Okay." Xia Ya nodded and confirmed, "Since you want to eat it so much, then you will have eggplant for lunch today!"

Arthur was stunned for a moment, and even thought he heard it wrong. He said angrily, "Did you hear it wrong! I don't want to eat!"

But Xia Ya had already taken him to the vegetable stall to buy eggplant.
