Gao leaned back in his chair: "An expelled student is still a student."
Things took an unexpected turn, and Neo's chest heaved violently, as if he would die at any time.
His son quickly took out the medicine bottle from his pocket, poured out a pill and put it into his mouth.
I swallowed it with some water, and it slowly calmed down like the wheezing and panting of a bellows.
"I'm sorry, Mr. Gao." Neo apologized and immediately continued the topic, "Are you willing to teach me magic?"
"For me, it's not a big deal, but it doesn't cost you any less."
"Mr. Gao, even if you need my soul."
Gao showed no interest in his soul, and said with a nostalgic expression: "I have some grudges against Hogwarts.
Well...it has to start from more than a thousand years ago."
Gao spent ten minutes telling Neo a story about a student who was expelled for making a mistake, and left his hometown in anger and went far away.
Although there were many unreasonable aspects in the story, as it was made up on the spot after all, Neo did not notice anything.
What happened in Hogwarts more than a thousand years ago, when my grandfather's grandfather was not even born yet.
He thought that he couldn't use his brief worldly life experience to speculate on the concepts of the supernatural world.
After listening, Neo said: "So, Mr. Gao wants to set up a magic training school on Blue Star?"
"After so many years, my alma mater has opened its doors again. As an expelled student, it is only appropriate to give a gift."
"Mr. Gao, I don't question your intention, but you plan to open a training class in reality openly, and Hogwarts..."
"Little guy." Gao laughed, "Poor grades are the least likely reason for a student to be expelled."
Neo didn't feel angry at all when he was called "little guy" by a boy younger than his son.
It's not about hiding your anger.
In his eyes, beneath the young appearance of the man opposite him was a body that had gone through thousands of years.
He didn't think there was anything wrong even if the other person called him "grandfather's grandfather's grandfather" "little guy".
"What should I do?" The person in front of him was his only chance to get in touch with magic. Neo, who was about to lie in the coffin, planned to fight to the death.
Although failure would implicate his sons' lives, Neo felt that his sons should be able to understand their old father.
"Gather those with talent and I will train them myself."
"What do you mean by talent?"
"People who are mentally active, outwardly intelligent, quick learners, and especially accomplished in physics."
"Xie Yi." Neo turned around and called out.
"I'll do it right away!" the eldest son responded, and led his younger brothers out the door.
After the door was gently closed, he said, "Mr. Gao, although my family is powerful, we still cannot decide everything in Amei.
I will do your bidding, but there are those who will side with Hogwarts."
"They won't." Gao asked with a smile, "Want to see the shooting stars?"
"Meteor?" Neo looked dazed and didn't understand what he meant.
"Tomorrow morning, at the beach, call them up." After saying that, he stood up and prepared to leave.
"Mr. Gao!"
Neo raised his voice and called him, hesitating for a moment, then asked tentatively, "Do you know about the restoration of the Queen of Ying?"
"Hmm, what's up?"
"It's like this..." He smiled awkwardly, his eyes pleading, "Do you have that kind of magic potion?
I don't expect you to give me anything, I can give you everything I have."
"Well..." Gao Duan looked at his face full of wrinkles and age spots, "It would be troublesome if he died...
Take care of my business and I'll catch up with you later."
"Please leave it to me, Mr. Gao!"
Neo used his crutches to support his decaying body. Even though it was difficult to walk, he still tried to bend down and salute: "Thank you for your kindness."
Not hearing any answer, he looked up uneasily, and found that Mr. Gao, who had just stood in front of him, had disappeared without a trace.
"Amazing magic..." He muttered to himself as he looked around the room.
……
Zhang Mu used the Transfiguration Technique to change his appearance and strolled among the crowds in the commercial street.
The glass windows of the shops on both sides are filled with eye-catching merchandise. From time to time, beautiful girls, still wearing thin clothes in the middle of winter, pass by laughing and joking with their companions.
Zhang Mu didn't pay attention to these. He was thinking that with the appearance of extraordinary people from various countries, there would inevitably be communication and contact between them.
Otherwise it doesn't make sense.
Regarding this, he thought that he could find time to hold an exchange competition, and the two contestants would naturally be the sect's servants and magic apprentices.
Gao’s role in the film is that of a “villain”.
With such a combination of punches, the extraordinary world will have flesh and blood, rather than being full of vague and illusory unreality.
Well, the progress of the immortal cultivation sect must be accelerated... first they have to resolve the trouble that the city of Gul is about to face from the attack.
Zhang Mu stopped on the sidewalk.
With the help of the old guy, he could gather a large group of top physicists, mechanical scholars, etc., and he wouldn't have to waste time in school.
"Let's go throw a fireball tomorrow, and then ask Thor how his search for someone is going."
……
The next day, it was dark.
Boston Coast.
The beach is crowded with people during the day, so there should be no one there before dawn, but at this moment there are many people in black coming and going.
They were busy patrolling around to eliminate danger, setting up defenses at key locations, and ensuring that the beach was monitored without blind spots.
Everything was ready. The maid who had been waiting for a long time in the distance immediately arranged the sofa and coffee table on the beach and placed her master's favorite desserts on the table.
Ten minutes later, the head maid, who was standing aside and giving orders while wearing a Bluetooth headset, reported to the householder's secretary that the work had been completed.
Soon, seven or eight people came walking on the sand together.
Walking in front were three old people, the one in the middle was Neo, and a few steps behind were their sons and daughters.
“Neo.” The old man on the left put his hands behind his back and said, “The surprise you mentioned is this beach?”
"What a fascinating scenery." Neo didn't pay attention to his slightly dissatisfied tone, and muttered to himself while looking at the calm sea.
Unable to figure out what he wanted to do, the two old men on his left and right looked at each other and didn't ask any more questions.
As they have known each other for decades and are both friends and rivals, they know that Neo is not yet senile.
Naturally, they would not do something boring like asking them to come and see the sea in the early morning.
The three of them walked slowly to the sofa and sat down, with their children standing behind them.
Neo, who was expecting a shooting star, didn't even bother to take a look at the exquisite snacks on the table.
The other two, although they were patient enough to wait for the surprise Neo mentioned, were still curious and naturally had no interest in paying attention to the desserts.
Time passed unstoppably, and a huge sun slowly rose from the sea.
After waiting for an hour, the old man sitting on his left frowned and asked, "How long do we have to wait?"
"Don't worry."
The sun had already risen, and Mr. Gao's meteor had not yet arrived, but Neo did not suspect that he was being fooled.
The wooden chair that floated over from the next room yesterday gave him full confidence—Gao was not a liar, he was a real magician.
Chapter 195: Mastering Power is the Qualified Magician
The meteor disappeared for a long time, and Neo noticed that the frequency of the two old friends shaking their legs was gradually increasing.
After all, human patience is limited.
Although they were patient enough, they could not bear it any longer as time was precious as they saw the sun rising from the horizon and about to climb high into the sky.
"Nio, if the surprise you're talking about is just the warm sunshine on the beach, I think I have to go back."
"hehe."
Neo was confident enough that he didn't pay attention to their suppressed and dissatisfied tone.
Considering that if they continue to drag it out, the two might really get up and leave, Neo slowly recounted what happened when he met Gao yesterday.
After hearing this, their previous displeasure disappeared without a trace.
If someone else had said this, based on the fact that Hogwarts in Ying Country had already started school, they would probably believe it, but they would still be a little skeptical.
But it was Neo who said this.
The three have known each other for decades and understand each other, perhaps better than they understand themselves.
They didn't think that their old friend would be deceived by some tricks.
They will never try any possible means to seek medical treatment when they are desperate.
“Neo.” The old man on the left said in a low voice, “Mr. Gao…will we incur the wrath of Hogwarts?
You have seen the aerial view of the giant pit with your own eyes. If that rock falls from above our heads, you know the consequences. "
"Mr. Gao isn't afraid, so why should we be afraid?"
After two hours of enjoying the sea breeze, the elderly Neo felt a little sleepy, but he still managed to stay alert and straighten his back as much as possible:
"Young Queen...
I never thought that decades later, I would be able to admire her stunning beauty again."
This sentence seemed to have nothing to do with their topic, but the two old men could easily understand what information Neo really wanted to reveal.
