MTL - A Wizard’s Secret-Chapter 13 Morta script
Although Merlin felt that the old man was somewhat inexplicable, but since Kellys said that the old man had a high level of accomplishment in identifying antiques from the Morta Empire, he would have no worries and shouted respectfully to the old man "Melin is willing to learn from the teacher!"
"well."
The old man Aita had a little complexion just now, and instantly changed his face, and started to laugh: "Merlin, you will come in the afternoon and start to learn some basic knowledge of antiques."
Merlin wasn't sure about the old man's temper, and he didn't dare to oppose it. He nodded and said that he would come in the afternoon. Then the old man sent Merlin and Kelly out the door.
"Miss Kelly, who is Teacher Aita?"
Merlin finally couldn't help but asked Kelly.
Kelice groaned for a while, and whispered, "Mr. Aita seems to have come to Heishuicheng from somewhere else, and he hasn't seen any of his relatives. His surname is a bit lonely, and he only likes to collect antiques. I also accidentally met Mr. Aita, and asked him some knowledge about antiques. Even if I encountered some antiques that I did not understand, I also came to ask Mr. Aita. As for other things of Mr. Aita, I was not very clear."
Merlin nodded, then separated from Kelly, and returned to the castle in a carriage.
*****
In the afternoon, Merlin once again came to the small building of the old man named Aita.
At this time, the weather was clear, and the heavy snow fell for a day, and now it finally stopped, but the air was still cold, Merlin was tightly wrapped in a coat, went up to the second floor, and knocked on the old door of Aita.
Soon, the door opened, and the old man looked faint when he saw it was Merlin.
"It's just on time, good."
The old man Aita said nothing and let Merlin enter the door.
Merlin came to the fireplace. The old man seemed to like to sit here. Merlin saw a thick book beside the fireplace.
The old man from Aita looked up at Merlin and said, "An antique is a sediment of history. An antique may carry a certain period of history. Therefore, to understand antiques, you must be knowledgeable and profound. The historical background of antiques, such as your favorite antiques from the Morta Empire period. If you want to really identify antiques from this period, you must first understand the Morta Empire. You know that the most important thing about the Morta Empire is What? "
Merlin shook his head. He knew very little about the Morta Empire.
"It's words, a big unified empire, and words are essential. Only through words can you learn many things about the Morta Empire. Of course, words are also a good way to distinguish antiques from the Morta Empire. . "
The old man from Aita immediately picked up the booklet on the table and handed it to Merlin.
Merlin turned the page at will, and found that there were dense and weird symbols on it. He had never seen it before, and the old man Aita explained: "This is the text of Morta, the text of the Morta Empire!"
"Morta text?"
Merlin's eyes brightened. These Morta characters are very different from the light characters used in the Kingdom of Light. The light characters are somewhat like the Western Latin letters of the previous life, and each letter forms thousands of words.
The Morta script is like a piece of cricket. In Merlin's view, it is impossible to tell the difference between these scripts.
"Merlin, if you want to identify antiques from the Morta Empire, you have to start learning the Morta script."
Therefore, here at Old Aita, Merlin began to learn this complex Morta script.
Learning text is very boring, but Merlin is full of enthusiasm for learning Morta characters. Perhaps this body is inherently sensitive to characters. When learning Morta characters, Merlin was also quite talented. One afternoon, He has mastered a dozen words.
Of course, learning a new word requires perseverance. It takes months or even years to learn.
The afternoon passed quickly, and the old man Aita saw that the sky was gradually getting dark, and said coldly, "Okay, here you are today, you go back and learn the Mortar words and vocabulary you learned today. Practice it. "
"Mr. Aita, I must go back and study carefully."
Having said that, Merlin yelled at the old man in Aita a little, then turned and left the small building.
"call……".
The door was cold and cold, and Merlin was blown by the cold wind. He was awake and awake. He had already seen Moss' carriage.
"Moss, back to the castle!"
Merlin got into the carriage, straightened his legs, leaned his back on the carriage, rubbed his head gently with both hands. Today he studied with the old man from Aita. Although he was tired, it was the most fulfilling thing he had ever done after he came to this world It's been a day.
*****
A few days passed, Merlin traveled daily between the old man and the castle at two o'clock, and life was very simple.
"Butler, is there anything wrong?"
Merlin had breakfast and asked softly, he had long noticed that the housekeeper seemed a bit wrong today.
The steward hesitated for a while, and then said, "Master Meilin, Miss Mei Xue has been away from the castle for nine days. I haven't returned for so long. Would you like to send someone to visit Grand City?"
Mei Lin took a moment's notice. He has been studying Morta characters for the past few days. Every day has been very fulfilling, but he did forget about Mei Xue.
I remember Mei Xue said that it only takes three or five days to go to the Grand City for communication. It is almost ten days now, but has not returned yet. No wonder the housekeeper will worry.
"So let's not be too busy sending someone to Gran City. I'll find some time later to ask Anson to see if he has any news."
The steward nodded, and then ordered the servant to clean up the table.
"call……"
Merlin walked out of the castle, a cold wind blew, and Merlin couldn't help shuddering. Although it hasn't snowed in the past few days, and the weather has been sunny for a few days, she is still very cold outside.
"Moss, go to Teacher Aita."
Merlin hesitated for a while. He went to the old man in Ita, usually in the afternoon. Today, he wanted to go to Anson to inquire about some news, so he had to explain to the old man in the first place.
So the carriage slowly left the castle.
*****
Merlin stood in front of the old man at Aita and shouted softly, "Mr. Aita."
After a while, Merlin didn't hear any response from the old man in Aita, so Merlin reached out and knocked on the door.
"Squeak".
The door was pushed open by a slight touch of Merlin's hand.
Merlin hesitated for a moment, and walked in again. He looked around and didn't see the old man. It seemed that the old man was not at home.
"Mr. Aita is really too careless, the door is not locked, aren't you afraid of entering the thief?"
Mei Lin murmured that the law and order of Heishui City has not been very good recently, but Mei Lin knows the old man of Aita, usually quirky and mysterious. He has been here for ten days, and he does not know the old man What does it do. All I know is that there is only one old man in this house. Except for Merlin and occasionally Kelly, there is no one at home.
So Mei Lin guessed privately that the old man from Aita might have come to Heishuicheng alone.
Seeing that the old man was not at home, Merlin sat quietly waiting in front of the fireplace, by the way, reviewing the Morta words learned in the past few days.
After waiting for about an hour, the temperature in the room seemed to drop a lot, and Merlin added some firewood to the fireplace. At this moment, Merlin heard footsteps under the stairs outside the door. Presumably the old man from Aita had returned, and Merlin hurried to stand up.
"boom".
The door was closed sternly, and the old man from Aita saw Mei Lin in the room, and said slightly, "Merlin, why are you here?"
Merlin saw an old man wearing a pair of long boots on his feet, covered with some dirt, and a coat on his body was also covered with some dew. His face was slightly pale, and he looked tired. I don't know what he did.
"Mr. Aita, I'm here to ask for leave from the teacher. I might have to deal with things at home this afternoon, so I won't come this afternoon."
Merlin looked at the old man, and it was beyond Merlin's surprise that the old man did not look angry, but seemed calm. It took a long time for the old man to nod his head and calmly said, "I'm going to go far these days, so your study may stop for a while."
Merlin was a little surprised. The old man Aita should usually be very relaxed. What would happen?
"When is Teacher Aita coming back?"
"Maybe, maybe three or five days, maybe ten days and a half months, but you have to remember that even if I'm not here, you have to practice Morta script. I have some tips on learning Morta script here. Some translations of You and Bright texts have been sorted out by me a few years ago. You can figure them out yourself. It should help you improve your understanding of Morta texts. "
The old man from Aita immediately took out a stack of thick materials and gave it to Merlin.
Merlin is a little bit confused. The information is not simple. Isn't it equivalent to the dictionary of previous life? Moreover, the old man from Aita recorded it in a very precious way. In this era, these things alone can be regarded as priceless. Although the old man is usually severe, he attaches great importance to Merlin.
"Teacher rest assured that I must practise Morta writing at home."
Having said that, Merlin took the information and turned to leave.
"and many more……"
The old man's complexion changed, and in the end it seemed to be determined. He pulled out a black ring from his arms and threw it directly to Merlin, and said in a deep voice, "This little thing is for you, and I won't hold you back. Call me 'Teacher'. "
"Teacher, this ..."
Merlin was a little hesitant, but the old man Aita waved his hand and said impatiently, "Go, hurry up, do whatever you want to do. I'm tired, I want to take a good rest."
The old man Aita was not polite and drove Merlin out of the house.
Mei Lin went downstairs, got into the carriage, and put the information on the carriage. He still has some buns until now. He always feels that the old man of Aita is a bit wrong, and he is also sending the information and the ring.
"Old man Aita is mysterious and mysterious all day long. He doesn't know what happened? But this ring is really strange. It looks like some years ..."
This black ring, I do n’t know what material it is. It is as light as nothing when held in the hand, and it is black in color. It is also engraved with a claw monster with three heads and three heads. It is wonderful but it looks strange.
Presumably, no one wants to wear such a ring on their hands.
Merlin played carefully for a while, but found nothing special, so he put the ring into his pocket and said to Moss, "Moss, let's go, and go to etiquette class today."
The carriage slowly left the old man's small building.
