Chapter 27 Noxian Calendar
“Thank you for your hospitality.”
Huo Jixing stood up and nodded to Amorin.
Then he felt inexplicable Mood, walking towards the wooden stairs close to the wall.
Ta-ta-ta! Ta-ta!
The sturdy wooden steps are made of solid wood, with handrails on the left and right sides. Some unknown paint is applied on them to make them smooth and non-irritating.
Huo Jixing walked along the wooden steps to the second floor step by step.
The decorative style on the second floor is very similar to that of the living room. Except for the bedrooms on the front and left, there is a room on his right with a closed door and dim lights.
"Gregory!" Huo Jixing chewed the name.
This is an old friend introduced by Legion Advisor Wilson, but it seems to have no influence on his memory of his previous life.
However, it must be unique to be highlighted by the legion advisor.
While thinking about it, Huo Jixing walked to the study. Before he could knock on the door, a gentle voice sounded in his ears.
“Come in!”
Squeak!
Huo Jixing opened the door and saw a simple and quiet study room.
The study room occupies a small area as a whole, with a carpet in the middle and a wooden bookshelf on both sides of the wall. There are piles of books on it, and the scent of paper and ink envelopes the room.
The windows on the south side are open, and the dusk glow interweaves with the lights in the study, creating a somewhat magical and hazy look.
Moving his eyes slightly, Huo Jixing saw an elegant figure behind the dark wood desk.
Gregory raised his handsome, angular face, his brown hair scattered in front of his forehead, and his deep eyes looked at Huo Jixing, who was standing at the door of the study.
"Gregory, a sorcerer who likes to study the supernatural and ancient history."
Pointing to the seat in front of the desk, Gregory first introduced himself, then took the letter from Huo Jixing, placed it on the right side, and spoke.
"Wilson told me about you, Huo Jixing, a Noxian newcomer with outstanding talent who has awakened in the wild!"
"It's Sir Wilson Miao Zan!" Huo Ji Xing bowed humbly, thinking to himself.
I didn’t expect Wilson to think so highly of himself, which was somewhat unexpected.
"Haha, there are few humble people like you in Noxus." Gregory said with a chuckle.
In a bloody, barbaric and war-torn environment, most Noxians are warlike, passionate, and proud.
"I know your purpose of coming. Let me tell you in advance that the extraordinary knowledge of flames is indeed one of the extraordinary directions of my research, but it is still under research and I may need your assistance in the future."< br>
"Yes!" Huo Jixing replied solemnly.
All he wants is to understand the extraordinary knowledge of Valoran to cover up the existence of his own data panel.
As for the extraordinary knowledge about flames, it is just one of the incidental purposes of this visit.
After receiving Huo Jixing's answer, Gregory nodded with satisfaction, a bright light appeared in his deep eyes, and then disappeared.
Looking at the darkening sky outside the window, he stood up and invited: "You are also a little tired from the journey. It's almost dinner time, let's go downstairs first."
Gregory As he walked out of the study, he said softly: "Yesterday, a villager hunted a snowshoe rabbit from the surrounding snow forest, and there happened to be some rabbit meat left. You can try Amorin's extraordinary craftsmanship."
一In the upstairs restaurant, bright candlelight lit up.
Amorin seemed to have known that they would come down. She was putting on a white apron and placing food on the table.
In the center is a steaming plate of delicious slices of rabbit, surrounded by vegetables, bread, and a colorful salad soup. Perhaps in order to take care of the newly arrived Huojixing, the Gregorys frequently raised topics and told some interesting stories.
In the cordial and cheerful conversation, Huo Jixing finished his dinner.
Then I returned to the fireplace, listened to the sound of washing in the restaurant, and waited quietly.
After the cup of tea.
Gregory helped Amorin out of the restaurant. The two of them looked at Huo Jixing apologetically, and then Gregory helped Amorin up to the bedroom on the second floor.
In the hot fireplace, the rising fireworks swayed and made a subtle sound.
"Sorry, Amorin has been a little sleepy recently. I need to take care of her more, so."
Gregory came down from the second floor, holding a dark red heavy wooden ball in his hand. He took the box and walked gently to Huo Jixing with an apologetic expression.
"It's me who's causing trouble!" Huo Jixing stood up in a hurry, waved his hand and said, his eyes falling on the dark red wooden box, glowing brightly.
"Let's go and see your room first!" Gregory walked in front and guided Huo Jixing.
On the right side of the fireplace, in the southeast area of the wooden house
Gregory, wearing a gray robe, stood in front of the door, pointed at the clean and tidy room, and said: "This is the room you are near. A place where I will stay for a while. "
The room is neither big nor small. The window faces south, and there are dim stars falling to the ground.
The flat walls on all four sides show traces of recent cleaning. Coupled with some boxes placed in the corners, it is vaguely apparent that this house must have been a utility room before.
But after careful organization, it became the place where Huo Jixing lived during this period.
"A very nice place, much better than my accommodation in the camp." Huo Jixing said jokingly as he looked at the decoration of the room.
“Haha!”
Gregory laughed in agreement. As Wilson’s old friend, he certainly knew the life in the Noxian camp.
Then he saw Huo Jixing's increasingly scorching eyes, heard the elegant meaning, and immediately placed the crimson wooden box in his hand on the wooden table covered with velvet.
"Before teaching extraordinary knowledge, you need to first understand the continent of Valoran we are in."
"What kind of strange, magnificent and colorful world is it?"
Welcoming Huo Huo Under Pole Star's gaze, Gregory looked calm and spoke while opening the crimson wooden box.
The wooden box is opened, and red silk cloth covers the box body.
In the center, there is an ancient book bound with a black cover squarely placed. From the slightly rolled corners, it can be seen that this book has been read countless times.
"Tales of Runeterra"!
Huo Jixing's heart moved when he saw the name of the book on the black cover.
Then he slowly stretched out his right hand and stroked the heavy book.
There are golden patterns, carefully engraved along the edge of the cover, surrounding the middle one, representing the crimson double-edged ax of the Noxus Empire.
He saw a line of small characters written in red and gold under the title of the book "Chronicles of Runeterra"——
[Noxian Calendar]!
Huo Jixing's eyes gradually brightened, and he spoke softly: "Noxus Calendar, does it represent the Noxus Empire?"
In his mental perception, in his hand, The books, apart from being luxurious and simple, are very ordinary and do not reflect any extraordinary power.
Only the strong historical atmosphere is refreshing.
He gently opened the cover, and a delicate yellowed page came into view, filled with tadpole-like words.
