Chapter 123 Daily Life. - Today of 4 girls②.
In the previous chapter, Yang Mingyi brought two trainee mages to the center of the green maze. After praying to the fountain for a while, Yang Mingyi dragged the two trainee mages to the sacred hall below the main hall to pray to the gods.
Just when the three girls were about to leave, someone suddenly appeared in front of them.
Yang Mingyi blurted out, "Huh? Great Master!"
Li Xingqi and Cordelia simultaneously saluted the Archmage to show their respect, but Yang Mingyi was a beat slower.
The wizard didn't say anything else. Instead, he asked the three girls directly, "This maze is so complicated. How did you get here?"
Li Xingqi and Cordilauia looked at each other in bewilderment, then both looked at Yang Mingyi. After all, it was Yang Mingyi who had brought them here.
Yang Mingyi smiled awkwardly and answered the wizard's question, saying, "Haha. I have been to the eldest princess's residence and saw a fountain here from the balcony outside her room. Then, I wrote down the route to here." As she spoke, she pointed in the direction of the eldest princess's residence.
The great wizard glanced in the direction of the eldest princess's residence and thought to himself, "I can indeed see the fountain here from there." Then, he smiled slightly and said to Yang Mingyi, "It seems that you have a good memory and excellent eyesight."
Yang Mingyi said to the wizard, "Of course, I don't even need to wear glasses." It was the first time she heard someone praise her good memory, and she seemed a little guilty, but her eyesight was definitely good.
The two trainee mages asked Yang Mingyi in unison: What are glasses?
Then, Yang Mingyi briefly explained to the two trainee mages what glasses were.
After listening to Yang Mingyi's introduction, the great wizard fell into deep thought.
Seeing that the Grand Master hadn't spoken for a long time, Yang Mingyi asked him, "Grand Master, can we go now?"
The great wizard came to his senses and told the three girls, "It's okay, you can go."
After receiving a positive answer, the three girls immediately left the green maze.
After watching the three girls leave, the great wizard muttered, "Is there really such a thing as 'good fortune'?..."
The "good fortune" that the great master mentioned here is of course referring to Yang Mingyi.
Next, we will talk about Qi Xinyang. It has been a long time since we talked about Qi Xinyang, so let’s talk about him now.
How is Qi Xinyang doing now? She has been in the "Hidden Mountain Sect" on the mountain with her two followers for more than ten days.
After finishing the archery class this morning, Coach Tuo Lierdi said to Qi Xinyang and the others, "Okay! Today is the last day of this round of archery lessons." Then, he asked Qi Xinyang and the others, "Do you want to take another round?"
Coach Tuo Lierdi was just asking tentatively, because except for Qi Xinyang who had absolutely mastered the archery skills, the other two followers still had a lot of room for improvement.
After hearing this, Qi Xinyang looked at Xiaojiao and Youke helplessly, then asked them, "How is it? Have you learned it?"
You Ke replied to Qi Xinyang, "Sister, I've learned it! I can throw arrows at the target without a bow! I can throw them very accurately now!"
Qi Xinyang stopped You Ke and said, "That's enough, shut up." She meant to stop You Ke from speaking any further.
Qi Xinyang felt that You Ke was being too absurd. If the target was closer, it would be fine, but with a target this far away, throwing an arrow could be more accurate than shooting. It was unheard of.
Afterwards, Qi Xinyang thought to herself, "If this were a game of pitching pots, maybe I would hit the target every time. Wait, if I could take him back to his original world, I would definitely be able to make the street vendor selling nesting dolls cry..." Thinking of this, she had a sly smile on her face.
Just when Qi Xinyang was thinking about something, Xiaojiao replied, "Big sister, I think I'm a failure in my studies. How about I learn something else..."
You Ke can basically hit the target now, but occasionally he misses it. Of course, he can't compare with Qi Xinyang, who can hit the bull's eye with every arrow.
Xiaojiao, on the other hand, was prone to missing the target, and even if he shot ten arrows, he wouldn't necessarily hit the target at all, resulting in an extremely low hit rate. The only thing worth mentioning was that whenever his arrows did hit the target, they would always deflect the entire target. While his archery wasn't very accurate, the force he exerted when he happened to hit the target was undeniably powerful.
Qi Xinyang rolled her eyes and thought for a moment before saying to her two followers, "Forget it. We've learned the general training methods. You can practice slowly later." Then, she told her coach Tuo Lierdi her decision and said, "Let's learn something else."
Coach Tuo Lierdi said to Qi Xinyang and the others, "Okay, let's not do any strength training this afternoon. Go to the weapons room and choose the weapons you want to learn."
Qi Xinyang pointed to the weapon racks in other areas of the compound and asked Coach Tuolierdi, "Aren't those the ones?"
Coach Tuo Lierdi told Qi Xinyang, "Those are the ones others are practicing with, so they're placed outside. If you want to learn, go to the weapons room and pick out the ones you're most comfortable with."
Just like that, after coach Tuo Lierdi explained the location of the weapons room, Qi Xinyang and the others went about their own business.
We have said before that, apart from exercise, the most important thing for Bound Foot to do in a day is to let the horses graze.
And the child "Xiao Ye" they brought with them was taken care of by You Ke.
As for Qi Xinyang, unlike Xiaojiao and Youke, who had fixed things to do every day, she had a lot more to consider. Her daily routine was a little more complicated, requiring her to wander around in different places.
Time flies! Nothing happened during the whole afternoon, and time came to the afternoon.
As soon as Qi Xinyang and the others entered the weapons room, You Ke saw horizontal lines on the wall.
You Ke muttered, "Why are there so many horizontal lines on the wall..."
Qi Xinyang was very observant and immediately figured out what the horizontal lines on the wall were used for. She told You Ke, "That's a ruler, used for measuring."
Seeing that Qi Xinyang was very knowledgeable, You Ke asked, "What are they measuring? Are they measuring height?"
Qi Xinyang looked unhappy and told You Ke, "Who told you that this was a height measurement? This is a weapons room, can't it be used to measure the length of weapons?"
Yu Ke muttered, "Oh...it's used to measure the length of weapons..."
Little Foot looked puzzled and muttered, "Why measure a weapon? Isn't it enough to just hold it in your hand..."
You Ke said to the other two people, "That can also be used to measure height." Then he leaned against the wall and asked the other two people, "Can you see how tall I am?"
Qi Xinyang turned her head away, not wanting to talk to You Ke. She didn't want to discuss topics like height. So, she went to the weapons room alone to check out the various weapons.
After helping Youke look at him, Xiaojiao said to him, "Maybe he's about 1.4 meters tall..." He was shorter than Youke and was looking up, so he couldn't be too accurate.
You Ke raised her little feet a little higher, until her eyes were higher than her head, and then asked her little feet, "What do you say now?"
Fortunately, You Ke has been seriously training his strength over the past ten days. In the past, he might not even be able to lift his bound feet.
Xiaojiao told Youke, "Now I can see clearly that he is a little bit taller than 1.4 meters."
Then, Xiaojiao also leaned against the wall and asked You Ke, "Look how tall I am?"
You Ke told Xiao Jiao, "Exactly one meter and three."
Little Foot muttered, "I'm growing pretty fast. I'm already as tall as an adult."
Think about it, bound feet are a sign of dwarfism, and adult males of the dwarf tribe are generally only about 1.3 meters tall.
You Ke asked Bound Foot, "Brother Bound Foot, how tall can you dwarves grow to be?"
Xiaojiao told Youke, "The tallest is around 1.3 meters. I've heard of some that are ridiculously taller. But I've never seen a dwarf who looks like that."
You Ke said to Xiao Jiao, "We are going to the Dwarf Country later. We can see if there is anything like that there."
Xiaojiao whispered to Youke, "That depends on how long Big Sister wants to stay here..."
You Ke turned to look at Qi Xinyang and asked, "Sister! Don't you want to measure your height?"
Although Qi Xinyang was much taller than You Ke and Xiao Jiao, she didn't want to discuss the topic. But after thinking about it, she decided to measure her height while no one else was around.
Qi Xinyang said to You Ke and Xiao Jiao, "Don't come over here. Just stand over there."
Qi Xinyang then stood up straight, her back against the wall. She then pressed her palms against the top of her head. After her fingers pressed against the wall, she turned around to check her height.
You Ke and Xiao Jiao were stunned when they saw it, and thought to themselves: So it can be measured this way...
There was nothing they could do. They had never seen a ruler painted on the wall before, so they were just surprised by it.
Qi Xinyang looked at the position of his fingers and thought to himself, "Under 1.6 meters, 9, 8... I'm 1.58 meters tall!"
Qi Xinyang was ecstatic when she saw her height increase! She thought to herself, "I should be about the same height as Yang Mingyi now. I remember she was about 1.58 meters tall. Anyway, she's definitely taller than Wei Qingping, not counting the unusual height of You Jiahui. Haha! I'm not the shortest anymore!" Thinking of this, she laughed to herself.
Qi Xinyang still didn't know that Wei Qingping had also traveled to another world, and that she was already over 1.8 meters tall. If she knew this, she'd probably want to kill someone. And it wasn't just Wei Qingping who had grown taller; Yang Mingyi and You Jiahui had grown a bit as well. So, she was still the shortest of the four girls.
After crossing into another world, the four girls all grew taller due to the racial characteristics of the tall people. However, Qi Xinyang was the only one who was so happy about this.
Seeing Qi Xinyang laughing, You Ke asked Qi Xinyang, "Sister! What's going on? How tall are you?" Since Qi Xinyang didn't say anything, he really didn't dare to go over and check.
Qi Xinyang skipped over to You Ke and Xiao Jiao, patted their shoulders, and said with a deliberate sigh, "Alas... If I weren't short, I'd actually be quite tall."
After hearing this, You Ke and Xiao Jiao looked at each other in bewilderment.
Xiao Jiaoxin said, "This...what Big Sister said is not human language..."
You Ke said to Qi Xinyang, "Sister, I don't understand. What do you mean by 'if you're not short, you're quite tall'..."
Qi Xinyang said to You Ke, "Don't worry about it. It's taller than you. Ha!"
You Ke said to Qi Xinyang, "Sister, I can tell you're taller than me without even measuring."
In reality, Qi Xinyang's words meant that compared to some people, she was quite tall. However, she was so happy that her words were a little off-key.
Qi Xinyang stepped on the threshold of the weapons room and said to You Ke, "I, your sister, am 1.8 meters tall! No, 1.58 meters tall!"
You Ke scratched her eyebrows with her fingers and said to Qi Xinyang, "But, sister. According to the standards of the Gaoren people, you should be taller."
Qi Xinyang thought about it and said to herself, "Yes, the tall people in this alien world are all abnormally tall. I'm not that tall..." Then, she began to think about whether there is any way to make herself taller.
When You Ke saw that Qi Xinyang was silent again, she asked Qi Xinyang, "Sister, what are you thinking about?"
Qi Xinyang asked his two followers, "Have you ever heard of any magic that can make people taller?"
You Ke told Qi Xinyang, "I've never heard of this."
Xiaojiao told Qi Xinyang, "Even if there is such magic, it won't be permanent."
After hearing this, Qi Xinyang thought to himself, "Right! If it's the same as my wind magic, then it can only increase your height for a period of time, and then it's gone." Qi Xinyang then asked his two followers, "Magic won't work! Is there any other way?"
You Ke told Qi Xinyang, "Sister, I can't help you with this. I really don't know what to do."
Xiaojiao looked strange and told Qi Xinyang, "Big sister, you shouldn't ask me this. If there was such a method, we dwarves wouldn't be called 'dwarves' anymore."
After the three of them chatted for a while, Coach Tuolidi finally came to the weapons room.
When Coach Tuo Lierdi saw that Qi Xinyang and the others had arrived first, he asked the three of them, "How's it going? Have you all decided which weapon you want to learn?"
Little Foot said to Coach Tuolierdi, "Not yet, Coach. We just got here."
Coach Tuolierdi looked around the weapons room and then went inside to check. When he came back, he asked Qi Xinyang and the other three, "Did you see the old man who's in charge of the weapons room?"
You Ke told Coach Tuolierdi, "No. We didn't see anyone when we came here."
Xiaojiao told coach Tuolierdi, "Yes, we haven't seen anyone else come here since we got here."
Coach Tuolierdi looked puzzled and muttered, "Strange, where did the old man go?" Then he looked at Qi Xinyang and the others and said to them, "Forget it, forget about him. You guys pick out your weapons first."
After hearing what coach Tuo Lierdi said, Qi Xinyang and the other three began to carefully check the various weapons in the weapons room.
Qi Xinyang saw a familiar weapon at a glance. Xiaojiao was also quite curious about the weapon, so he immediately walked over and picked up the double-headed weapon.
Coach Tuolierdi said to Xiaojiao, "Do you want to learn? If you want to learn, I will teach you."
Xiaojiao asked Coach Tuolierdi, "Coach, this weapon has a unique shape. What kind of weapon is it?"
So, what weapon did Little Foot choose? We'll continue in the next chapter...
