Chapter 17 that woman is a fairy

The story was divided into two parts, but it was said that after Zobel was arrested by the great magician Chu Wameng to the magic house that day, he peeled potatoes all day long until midnight.He was terribly sleepy, but he didn't dare to doze off.The great magician's magic was so powerful that he dared not sleep.When he finished peeling and shredding the last potato, he sat down on the kitchen chair, bent over and dozed off. Zobel fell asleep with his head on the table.But he continued to work in his sleep. The potatoes in front of him were piled up like a mountain. Although he kept peeling the potatoes, he couldn't finish peeling them.The mountain of potatoes is not only endless, but it is getting bigger and bigger, and the pile is getting higher and higher.Finally, Chu Wa walked into the kitchen and saw that he hadn't finished peeling the potatoes, so he became furious and yelled at him.Chu Wa scolded so fiercely.So frightened that Zobel fell from his chair and woke up immediately.

Zobel sat on the ground, rubbed his eyes, and saw that it was already morning, and only then did he realize that he was dreaming just now.But Chu Wa screamed and cursed loudly, but it was not a dream.But the real thing!His yelling and cursing could be heard throughout the magic house. The gray bird in the cage was also woken up by him.It flapped its wings and chirped to Zobel. "Shut your beak!" Zobel reprimanded. He went to the kitchen door and listened carefully.The great magician was yelling and cursing, he must be angry with someone. But Chu Wa screamed fiercely.It stopped soon, and it was quiet outside the house.After a while, the great magician's scolding sounded again. The voice sounded particularly irritated, but it didn't last long.

"What is Chu Wa doing?" Zobel thought. He grabbed the doorknob, opened it, and went out into the hallway.There was no one to see, no sound to be heard... He stood still in a hurry!A light shone from the basement steps, and footsteps were heard.I don't know who came up the steps.However, it was not Chu Wameng, the great magician, but Casper! Zobel couldn't help but make a joyful sound, and he opened his arms.Run to Casper. "Casper!" Overjoyed, he hugged Casper, crushing him with joy. "Zobel!" Kasper yelled. "I thought you were in the den of thieves! What are you doing here?"

"Me?" Tridur said. "I'm done peeling the potatoes. I'm happy now! But you..." Only then did Zobel discover the fairy Amaryllis.She followed Casper up the steps.Zobel opened his mouth wide and looked at her with bulging eyes. "Who is that woman?" asked Zobel. "That woman is a fairy," said Casper. "Her name is Amaryllis." "What a beautiful name! It really suits her!" "Really?" Fairy Amaris asked with a smile. "Then who are you?" "Are you asking this boy?" Casper rushed to answer for him, because Zobel was too surprised to speak. "The lad is my friend Zobel. He's my best friend. But I don't know how he got here all at once. I want him to tell me first. Oh, Zobel, you Tell me, what the hell is going on!..."

But the nymph Amaris stopped Zobel first. "Let's talk outside," she said. "Let's go outside together first. Chu Wameng is dead. Of course, this magic house can't be allowed to stay anymore. I want to keep it..." "What should we do?" Casper asked first. "You'll find out soon." The fairy Amarys took Casper's hand with one hand, and Tribel's with the other, and she was going to draw the two friends outside.But Zobel broke free from her grip. "Wait a minute, I'm going inside to get something." Zobel ran into the kitchen and brought up a birdcage.

"Oh, is it a bird?" Casper asked when he saw Zobel returning with the cage. "Not bad!" Zobel replied with a smile. "It's a gray finch, but it's still a special bird." The two of them were held hands by the fairy and walked outside the door of the magic house.Amaris told them to go to the forest first, and she stayed by herself. Seeing Kasper and Zobel walk to the forest, she turned around and raised her hand to point to the magic house.In a blink of an eye, the gray wall suddenly collapsed without a sound, leaving only a pile of rubble in Chu Wameng's magic house, and the pool of Bell Toad was also submerged by the collapsed rubble.

Amaryllis managed to make thorns grow around the collapsed mansion, and surrounded it with hedgerows.Then he turned around and walked towards Kasper and the two of them.The fairy walks without legs, she just drifts in the air, and when she drifts in the air, the leaves and herbs bow to her. "Casper, I have received your favor," said the Fairy, "I am so grateful that I will never forget it." She took off a small gold ring from her finger. "I give you this ring, please accept it!" said the fairy. "This is a magic ring that can grant you any wish, but it can only be granted three times. You only have to turn this magic ring once and ask your wish, and it will grant you. Well, Casper, Please hold out your hand."

Casper held out his hand, put the ring on, and thanked the nymph Amarys. "All right," said Zobel. "Shall we count the buttons to decide who speaks first?" So they both counted the buttons on their own clothes. "I-you-I..." But the surprise is that both of them have five buttons on their jackets. "It's me!" Zobel preemptively said as he counted to the fifth button. But by this time Casper also counted to the fifth button and said, "It's me!" As a result, the two spoke at the same time. "Oh, it's you!" Zoebel found it difficult to decide on this method, so he put forward a new opinion. "We have to change the method. Let's read "Number Song" now, shall we? Look at mine, it will definitely be solved!"

Zobel spit three times on his index finger solemnly, then used this finger to touch the stomachs of the two people in turn, and counted: one, two and three four, five and six four, five and six one, two and three The three-spit-spiked index finger finally touched Kasper, finally resolving the issue of who spoke first between them. "Well, it's decided, Zobel..." So Casper told Zobel in detail all the adventures he had experienced.He spoke eloquently. Zobel listened to Kasper's story, his ears were flushed with excitement, he was sweating profusely, and he couldn't breathe.When he heard Chu Wameng's tragic end, he couldn't help but pat himself on the head.

"What a madman! Casper!" cried Zobel. "If only I had known sooner!" "Why?" Casper asked. "I mean, if I knew there was such a thing, I wouldn't have to work hard for Chu Wameng, peeling potatoes until midnight!" Now it was Zobel's turn to speak.He told Casper all about his adventures.He talked about how he suffered all kinds of hardships and tortured in the den of thieves, and also about Huo Zhenbo throwing Casper's hat into the fire and burning it. "What? Burn my beautiful hat?" cried Casper angrily. "Huo Zhenbo is a very bad thief! I must try to send him to the prison, that rascal!"

Zobel thought it was time to tell Kasper the truth. "Don't worry!" he said calmly. "The thief has been locked up." "The thief has... been locked up?" Casper asked hastily. "He turned into a greyhound, and he's locked up in this cage. That's how he is now, Casper. Why, don't you wonder? Well, let me tell you how he came to be a greyhound." Zobel continued to tell Kasper, and when he finished, Kasper was also sweating from shock. "Finally good luck, everything is going well, and every danger is turned into good luck!" Casper shouted. "What shall we do now?" "Now, let's take Gray Finch to Sergeant Ding Beimo. Then go home!" Sabel shook the birdcage triumphantly.He started to walk away, but Casper still stood still. "I want to get a new hat." He explained why. "Where are you going to get your hat?" "We have a magic ring, don't forget!" Casper turned the magic ring and murmured; "I wish to have a peaked hat like the old one." It was too late, but soon, he shouted one or two times, and his wish came true, and a new pointed hat had been put on his head.This hat is exactly the same as the old one. "Excellent!" said Zobel. "If I hadn't seen Huo Zhenbo throw that old hat into the fire with my own eyes, I couldn't believe it was a new hat! Well, let's go now!" "Oh," said Casper. "Let's go." The two children carried the birdcage together, whistled and sang happy songs from time to time, and walked home. "I'm so happy!" said Casper after a while. "Me too!" said Zobel. "Grandma must be happy too!" "Grandma?" Casper suddenly stopped. "Oops, bad!" "What are you doing? Why don't you leave?" "Now I remember! Let's forget the most important thing!" "The most important thing?" "Yes," said Casper. "Grandma's coffee grinder was forgotten." "Oh, yes!" said Zobel, clutching his head. "Casper, we must get back Grandma's coffee grinder. Now there is no other way but to turn around and go back to the thief's den." go." "Take it easy!" Casper reminded him. "Let's keep it simple!" So saying, he turned the magic ring a second time, and directed it, saying: "I want to get Grandma's coffee grinder!" There was a plop, and the coffee grinder had fallen to the grass beside his feet. "What a magic ring!" cried Zobel. "It came so fast! Let me see if it's broken?" He picked up the coffee grinder and examined it carefully. The coffee grinder was intact. He shook the handle and sang the song "It's Beautiful in May".But it's strange that this time it's a two-part chorus. "It's a duet!" Zoebel was very surprised. "How beautiful: if grandma heard the song, she would... oh, how did it happen? Can you explain it to me?" Casper also found it strange. "Perhaps this is some magic performed by the fairy Amaryllis?" He suggested his opinion. "Yes, it must be so!" said Zobel. "It must be so. The fairy Amaryllis made this song a duet to please us and Granny! How then do we expect a third wish?" "Can't you think of it?" Casper replied. "I already knew it!"
