Chapter 363 Self-reliance
If you don't look closely, the wind element is like a ball of gray smoke and dust, and looks like a whirlwind with arms. Thanks to the gloomy weather in the UK, unless you are interested in checking it, you can't find the air element that rises into the air.
Zhao Mai grabbed Ye Owl and began to land. Tolkien named his Ye Owl Huifeng. Now it is struggling in Zhao Mai's hands, pecking at Fengyuan with its claws and mouth.
It could not recognize the smell of the Qi element until Zhao Mai took it to land and turned back to its original form. "Okay, I know it's me, don't bite it." Zhao Mai used healing spells while checking its injuries.
Tolkien and Logan came out, and at this time, Gray Wind had basically recovered under the action of spells, at least there would be no problem with the wound. As for the missing feathers, they could only wait to slowly grow back. Gray Wind thrust out of Zhao Mai's hand and jumped into Tolkien's arms, as if he had escaped from some sea of suffering.
"It was a cannon bombing." Zhao Mai said: "It is estimated that the gray wind broke into the range of the battlefield, and its flight altitude is not too high, so it may have been affected. There is a letter on its feet, but it has almost been destroyed."
Tolkien untied the letter from Huifeng's feet. Except for the rope used to tie some letters, the rest were damaged by the war. Because Ye Xiao failed to complete the task, he pressed his head against Tolkien's chest, rubbed him gently, and made a faint cry. "It's okay, it's the war time, don't take this matter to heart. Recover well and have a good rest."
Zhao Mai's dog kept paced back and forth in front of Tolkien's house, sniffing with his head raised or lowered. Zhao Mai called it over and squatted down and touched its head: "What's wrong? Did you find something abnormal?"
The reserved grain looked around again, but in the end it was still impossible to confirm anything. It shook its head and yelled twice as a denial. Zhao Mai looked around in confusion, but he found nothing, so he took everyone into the house.
The letter was only the beginning, and the content was not beyond the daily greetings, and there was nothing below. "It was Grindelwald's letter, but unfortunately I don't know what was behind it. Wait until the feathers of Gray Wind grow, and then write to him to ask him." After thinking for a while, Tolkien added: "It seems that Grindelwald is on the other side of the war zone, so it will be impossible for him to come here for a while."
"Please give Huifeng more meat these days and let it rest well. This is a potion formula to speed up the healing of the body. It will definitely be matched with your ability." Zhao Mai reached out to touch Huifeng's head, but was still blocked by Ye Owl's wings. The domesticated wizard messenger owl has a tough temper and is no longer like an animal, but a magic pet, which is difficult for others to approach. However, if you hold the letter, these owls will become more obedient and will stretch out their claws to make people tie the letter.
At present, it seems that Dumbledore and Grindelwald couldn't help, so Zhao Mai immediately set off for London. According to the map, the goblin's store is not far from the Bougain Bar, and is a grocery store called "Small Package". Zhao Mai was driving along the left side of the road awkwardly, and first went to Bougain Bar to take a look.
Sure enough, there was a sign of "Rest Today" hanging on the door knocker of the bar, and the wooden door kept making a sound of "Ouuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu
The "Small Package" grocery store is not big, and from the outside it is a store selling errand goods and hardware. The slender and narrow windows are filled with mops, brooms and leather pipes. The store does not use the "Muggle Invisible" spell, so ordinary people can enter and exit normally. It is just a big lizard that is one meter long lying on the small windowsill at the door, constantly turning two independent eyes to look around, and from time to time it spits out long tongues to catch flies and mosquitoes near the door. The lizards look vicious and terrible. The pedestrians coming and going unconsciously walk around the area in front of the door, and there are not two people entering the whole day.
Zhao Mai parked the car, kept Doji'an and the reserved grain in the car, and took Adu and Xiaohua in. Adu had great strength and could help carry things. Xiaohua was more sensitive to natural force than Zhao Mai, and she was also very clear about the ingredients needed for flu agents. So if there was anything that could be used, Xiaohua could help Zhao Mai find it quickly.
There was a boy who was napping in the shop. He was sitting on a round stool, guarding the cash register on the counter next to the door, and his chin was pressing against a Times of the day. His saliva flowed on the newspaper, turning the handwriting on it into blurred black mud. When Zhao Mai pushed the door in, the door rang out the bell, and the crisp jingle echoed from the grocery store.
The boy suddenly woke up and almost fell off the round stool. "Oh, welcome, sir, what do you need?"
"Is there anything that wizards use? I need some magic potions and medicinal materials." Zhao Mai said straight to the point.
The boy looked at Zhao Mai, then turned his head and shouted to the back: "Uncle Korze, there is a customer coming, so you should receive it!"
"Why are there anyone coming at this time? One wave is not enough and another wave comes." Zhao Mai vaguely heard the complaint coming from behind the wall: "This time, it must be someone who spends money. Those who just talk nonsense will never receive them! Yes, never receive them!"
Behind the boy was a shelf, mainly with nails, tape, soap, matches and other things that were not big but relatively valuable. The store did not have many customers, so there was very little inventory, with only one or two pieces of each thing. Just in front of Zhao Mai, all of these things moved to both sides and piled up, leaving the area in the center of the shelf. The shelf cracked from the middle, and a dense door appeared from the wall. After it was opened, a short goblin walked out.
The goblin wore suspenders and a work jacket, with more than a dozen pockets of all sizes sewn on it, and contained various craftsman tools such as rulers, scissors, screwdrivers, hacksaws, etc. The goblin had a pair of glasses on the bridge of his nose, and there were lenses of various colors that could be rotated and combined on both eyes, from high beam, magnification, microscope, filters, etc.
"Welcome to the grocery store in Korze, the holy place for consumers. Are you a wizard? Can you show me your wand?"
Zhao Mai flipped his right hand and the magic wand appeared in his hand. Aduo stood behind Zhao Mai and pulled out the wand from the leather hood of his belt. "I definitely haven't seen you two wizards. Are you from the East?"
"I am currently studying in a magic school and can't be considered a formal wizard." Zhao Mai replied lightly. "I'm here to buy some medicinal materials. See if these are there."
The goblin took the list and looked at it, his hands suddenly trembled. He swallowed and said, "I have these things, but the quantity is very small. It may be about ten pounds of bulk goods, and the price is not cheap. How much do you want?"
