Chapter 117

"What kind of seedling is this?" Yu Sui asked in confusion. He only had a few pots of wild onions and garlic planted at home, and they had all grown quite big. This one looked like a seedling.

Shuyu smiled slightly, took out a small cloth bag from his arms, and scattered the remaining seeds into the flowerpot with fresh soil.

His slender hands stroked the flowerpot, and he opened his lips slightly, a mysterious spell flowing out of his mouth. The gentle breeze accompanied the green light from his fingertips and merged into the soil in the flowerpot.

Under the nourishment of magic, the brown seeds quickly grew tiny white roots, and green sprouts emerged from the top, growing rapidly upwards with an unstoppable vitality.

At the gate of the courtyard, the crowd's exclamations were heard one after another, like the accompaniment of a magic spell.

The seedling grew to a finger's height and stopped, and was placed by Shuyu together with several other flower pots.

"These are the seeds Buona gave you. I had nothing better to do, so I planted them."

Shuyu explained, the sound as pleasant as running water hitting rocks.

Xiaochu was already staring with his eyes wide open. He squatted down and stared at the seedlings in the flowerpot without blinking.

"These are onion seeds. I was worried they wouldn't survive, but I didn't expect you to help me solve this problem."

Yu Sui picked up one of the pots in surprise and said.

"The sooner you plant the seeds, the greater their survival rate. Over time, their activity will decrease. I see it's quite warm in the house, and your plants are growing well, so I'll plant these seeds."

Shuyu looked at the wild onions and garlic sprouts on the kang through the glass and explained to Sui.

Yu Sui looked at the green onion sprouts in his hand with envy, "Magic is truly amazing. I wish I could also use magic."

"Do you want to learn? I can teach you." Shuyu said with a smile.

Upon hearing that he could learn magic, Yu Sui opened his mouth in surprise, his eyes widening and flashing with incredible light like black gemstones. "Can I learn magic too? Isn't it said that orcs are born without magical talent?"

Shuyu picked up two pots of green onion seedlings and walked into the house.

"Learning magic requires talent and elemental affinity. The greater the orc's resistance to magic, the harder it is to comprehend magic."

Yu Sui and Xiao Chu carried the remaining green onion seedlings into the house. They were completely attracted by Shu Yu's words and completely forgot about the tribesmen surrounding outside the yard.

The scene of humans performing magic could no longer be seen, and the onlookers slowly dispersed.

Listening to Shuyu's words, Yu Sui was thoughtful. So this was the reason why orcs couldn't use magic. Then what about the dwarves?

Putting the flower pot on the edge of the warm kang, Shuyu looked back at Yu Sui who was distracted, a smile flashing in his eyes.

"The first step in learning magic is meditation. Comprehending the elements of magic will help you understand which element your talents lean towards. Compared to other orcs, I think you might be able to comprehend magic."

"Really?" Yu Sui's heartbeat quickened, joy spread across his face, turning into a brilliant smile.

He couldn't suppress his inner excitement. "Didn't you say that orcs have magic resistance and have difficulty understanding magic? How could I be an exception? Can you see other people's magical talent..."

Suddenly, he realized the implication of Shuyu's words, put away his smile and looked at Shuyu indignantly.

"Are you mocking me for having a magic defense that's not as good as other orcs? Don't think I don't understand."

Shuyu's smile widened, his eyes curved in laughter, "I'm just telling the truth. Do you want to learn magic?"

Looking at him suffocatingly, Yu Sui felt that Shuyu seemed to be slowly revealing his evil intentions.

He said in a muffled voice, "Of course I have to learn. What if I can really learn it?"

"Magic begins with meditation. You lie down, focus your mind, empty your thoughts, and feel the magical elements around you. You'll be able to sense whatever magic you have a talent for."

Shuyu pointed at the kang and explained to Sui.

Yu Sui obediently climbed up and lay down, and the curious Xiao Chu also lay down beside him.

The sun is shining brightly at this moment, and it feels warm on the kang.

With a full stomach, Yu Sui lay on the kang and felt extremely comfortable. The sun and the animal skins were warm. Yu Sui's cheek touched the soft and warm fur, and he tried to relax his brain in the comfortable environment.

Don't think about anything, empty your mind, empty your mind. Suddenly, Yu Sui sat up with a somersault and said to Shu Yu, "I almost forgot, I brought you some food. Eat it while it's hot, or it'll get cold."

Shuyu, who was sitting leisurely on a chair, was about to pick up the teapot to pour water, but Yu Sui's startled movement made his hand stop in the air. After hearing his words, he put down the teapot with a smile.

"You can't let your mind wander while you're meditating. You can't do that." He shook his head.

Yu Sui rubbed his stomach in distress. "It's so comfortable. I'm so sleepy after eating and basking in the sun. Are all you magicians so perseverant?"

Who can control themselves from falling asleep when lying down? Once the mind is empty, I feel even more sleepy!

This won’t do. How can I meditate on magic if I fall asleep? Yu Sui sat on the kang and sighed worriedly.

Shuyu smiled, poured himself a glass of water, and took a sip.

Learning magic is not such a simple thing, otherwise why would only people from wealthy families be able to learn it? Except for geniuses with amazing affinity for magic, ordinary people who want to learn magic need to wear magic robes that enhance the concentration of magic elements, and it is best to perform magic in a magic circle that gathers elements.

This kind of magic circle requires a lot of magic cores. Even a magic robe worn by an apprentice magician costs hundreds of gold coins, and the higher the level, the more expensive it is.

In a sense, magicians are also a kind of family inheritance. The descendants of high-level magicians have more opportunities to learn magic. Not only do they inherit talent, but they also have the support of scarce magic props. Many things are priceless.

Not to mention that Yu Sui is just a snow werewolf cub. Even if his magic defense is not as good as other orcs, he is innately resistant to magic.

The reason why Shuyu suggested that Yu Sui meditate was not only because he wanted to tease the cub, but also because he wanted to see if this cub who always surprised him would give him a surprise this time.

Yu Sui thought anxiously for a while, then an idea came to him. He sat cross-legged on the kang, imagining the training postures of the heroes he had read about in martial arts novels before. He also clasped his palms together and placed them in the center of his crossed legs, took a deep breath to stop himself from thinking too much.

Yu Sui gently closed his eyes, his mind gradually emptied, and his chaotic brain began to become clear.

Everything around him seemed to be far away from him, and he began to hear clear sounds from afar: the footsteps of his tribesmen walking back and forth, the clanking sounds of the dwarves forging, and the voices of people talking in the cafeteria.

This was the first time that Yu Sui listened carefully to the sounds around him after he became a snow werewolf cub. Only then did he realize that the snow werewolf's hearing could reach such a far distance if it calmed down.
