Chapter 2513: Time-Traveling Newspaper
"Cannot leave a specific area? This is the same as I guessed. Although your method of traveling through time is not a time key, it has similarities with time key adventures."
Xia De had the most experience in this regard, and he asked again:
"Then Miss Danister, have you tried to leave clues for us in this era? For example, find some people and instruct their descendants to go to a certain place on a certain date; or bury notes or notebooks in inconspicuous places."
Miss Danister had of course thought of this:
"I had this idea, and I did it. I didn't know on which day you or others would come to the local area after I went missing, so I instructed the townspeople to find someone at this hotel one week after my missing date."
The corners of her mouth curled up slightly, revealing a smile, her rose-red eyes looking at Xia De:
"But obviously you came faster than I thought."
"Then did you bury anything? Although it can be determined that you did travel to the past, I think it is still necessary to dig out the buried things to completely prove this point... After all, there are other possibilities, right?"
"Buried, in order to prevent being dug out during town expansion and renovation, I buried it in the woods. No, Xia De, sit down, you don't need to go. I dug it out last night."
She shook the silver ring with a ruby on her hand at Xia De:
"This is an alchemy ring I made myself, it won't be forged. If you are still not at ease, you can go to the descendants of the townspeople who left information back then to inquire. Of course, provided that they really followed my requirements and are still willing to execute those actions."
Xia De shook his head:
"Traveling through time is nothing to doubt, but in this way, there is no clue about how to lift the time curse."
"Past literature has mentioned this kind of curse, but I have never seen anyone who violates time, so I have always regarded it as an ancient legend."
The witch raised her hand to touch her face:
"Since the problem originated in Brookwood Town, I believe the answer will also be here. The 'time traveler' in this town is definitely not just me, an outsider who just arrived here. I suspect that someone here knows the secret of time travel."
"The local ring warlocks of the 1763 time point probably know the 'time traveler' rumors, which is true. In the more than a month I spent in the town in the past, my biggest gain was that I saw a copy of the 1852 'Sound of Music Newspaper' in the woods outside the town. The discovery location was in the woods outside the town, probably blown over by the wind."
Xia De looked at her in surprise, but then felt that it was nothing.
Judging from the notebook found in the chubby owl's room, just the suspected "time travelers" of this hotel in the past were as many as 7.
"If there were other time travelers before, and that cupboard is now placed so casually in the broom closet instead of a hidden secret room, this shows that there may be more than one time channel here."
Xia De analyzed, Miss Danister nodded gently, sighed and put down the teacup:
"So, we can try to find other time travelers now. Maybe some people stayed in time that didn't belong to them forever, but I believe that some people must have returned to their time points like me.
The time curse won't just curse me. Finding other people cursed by time will always find a way to expel the curse."
This was also Xia De's idea. If there were really many "Twisted Tree Holes" in this forest, then this forest must have special properties that they hadn't discovered yet.
Whether it was to help Miss Danister, or to find a way to bring the witch of the past to the "present", Xia De would not ignore this matter.
"After going back last night, I actually thought about how to dispel the curse on you."
After talking about Miss Danister's experience, Xia De mentioned this matter:
"This curse originates from time. If you want to solve it, you have to rely on time. For example, the origin of the curse is related to your illegal time travel. Since this is the case, can it be purified through the method of 'atonement'?"
This method was actually what Xia De thought of for long-haired Luweiya a long time ago.
The eighteen-year-old witch asked:
"But I illegally went to the past, and now I have already returned. You mean, let me return to a hundred years ago again?"
"No, no, it's to catch other people who destroyed the continuity of time but were not punished. In other words, catch other illegal time travelers. It's a pity that this is not easy to find. The only one I know is the eldest son of the third generation of the Edwards family, Envy Edwards, but he has already left."
Miss Danister nodded to show understanding:
"This method is indeed possible, but it still needs to be found in Vista City. Behind this city, I mean behind the long time, there must be secrets we can't imagine. Do you want to see that 1852 'Brookwood Town Morning Newspaper'? Only half, fortunately, it is the half with time."
Xia De shook his head:
"Let's look at it in a while. Regarding the solution to the time curse, I have a second idea here."
He took out a glass jar pendant from his pocket, wiped it with a handkerchief, and it became a real jar filled with yellowish preservative.
Two umbilical cords entangled with each other and inseparable floated in the preservative. Xia De handed the jar to Miss Danister:
"Try it, this thing can stabilize time."
The latter took the jar with some surprise, and immediately felt the ancient miracle elements:
"This is... oh!"
She turned her head and looked at the destiny ring that automatically emerged behind her with Xia De and the chubby owl. The original thirteenth-rank destiny ring had indeed turned into a seventh-rank, and as she hugged the jar of umbilical cords, the seventh-rank destiny ring hid in the depths of the steam mist and began to deform during the rapid rotation, until it turned into a twelfth-rank.
Xia De immediately went to look at her face, but found that the witch in front of him was still eighteen years old and youthful:
"Looks feasible, it's just a pity that it didn't recover to the thirteenth rank, and your appearance still hasn't changed."
Miss Danister nodded, not disappointed at all:
"The curse didn't disappear, it was just offset by a part of what you took out. This is enough, which shows that this kind of curse is not completely unshakable."
She returned the jar to Xia De, so as her face suddenly turned pale, the twelfth-rank destiny ring turned back to the seventh-rank. Not only that, she covered her mouth and coughed twice, and then Xia De saw the blood in her palm:
"It seems that you can't do this often, the curse seems to have worsened. Sure enough, you can't take shortcuts."
"Oh, don't talk first—Sunlight Healing!"
Golden sunlight spilled down from the raised fist, and the slightly weak witch asked suspiciously again:
"Where did you learn the miracle of the Sun Church?"
Fortunately, she only suffered internal injuries due to the ups and downs of the curse power, and after resting for a while, she was able to continue chatting with Xia De:
"Xia De, can you tell me who these two umbilical cords belong to?"
If that chubby owl wasn't here, Xia De wouldn't mind explaining simply. But he didn't trust the new witch for the time being, and didn't want to disturb the ordinary life of the two princes starting from scratch, so he just shook his head.
Miss Danister didn't pursue the question, got up and wanted to take the newspaper she brought back from the past, but was asked by Xia De to sit on the sofa and rest, and he got up to help her take it.
The wrinkled half of the newspaper was the front page, and the headline on the front page of this day was the news that King Lion Leon reorganized the Karsenrik Kingdom Parliament and reappointed the Speaker. Because the newspaper was only half, the news and the photos of His Majesty the King were only the top half.
It is worth mentioning that the Speaker Marquis Haishan, who took office in 1852, still holds the position of Speaker of the United Kingdom Parliament. Moreover, he is also Margaret's uncle, that is, the Queen's own younger brother.
Then Xia De continued to talk to Miss Danister about what she saw and heard a hundred years ago. The winter of 1763 sounded exceptionally cold. The person who longed to go home waited for her student's arrival in an almost empty mansion, and for the townspeople who knew nothing, it was another ordinary winter.
Although Xia De didn't ask about the owl at the first time, as the chat continued, he inevitably asked about the origin of the owl:
"Okay, I'm still very curious about it, is it your pet?"
"Do you know? From the moment you entered the door just now, I have been waiting for you to ask. Xia De, you are more patient than I thought. This is a compliment to you, you don't need to explain."
The young red-haired witch said, signaling Xia De to look at the owl.
And the owl on the bird stand flapped its wings toward the sofa at this time, but it was shrouded in a mass of gray-white mist in mid-air. As the gray-white mist spread, the figure wearing small black leather shoes walked out of that mass of mist.
Gray long hair mixed with black hair, the hair ends even hung over the waist. None of the ladies around the outsider had such long hair.
Her left hand was placed on her chin, and the face shape was indeed small, making her look no more than twenty years old.
But her clothing was simple and exquisite. The white lace-edged lady's shirt on the upper body, the cuffs of the cuffs were as eye-catching as the slender waist. The black skirt was neat and close-fitting, making her figure appear more slender. Her height was not as good as Galina and Miss Aurora, but no matter how you look at it, she was 1.7 meters tall.
The warm autumn sunlight passed through the window, casting soft shadows on her side face, and the autumn morning breeze blowing from outside the window made her long hair sway slightly. And those golden eyes looked at Xia De with a kind of elusive smile, which at least showed that her attitude was not hostile.
With a bit of arrogance, but like a lazy cat basking in the sun, this was Xia De's first impression of Flora Winster.
"Hello, may I ask... who are you?"
Xia De asked suspiciously. ===== CHAPTER 2514 =====
