Chapter 40: First Encounter with Josevi
"Zero, Zero......"
"I'm sorry, I ...... There are already people who like it......"
"He's nice and nice to me......"
"We'll be good friends in the future. ”
"I'm really sorry...... The person I choose, it's ...... him."
"Will you come to my wedding?"
"Live Well ......"
......
"You just gave up?"
"I've fought for it many times......"
"Why did they do this to you!"
"I can't ...... it"
"What are you going to do?"
"I don't know ......"
......
"Just remember me, and forget about it......"
"I'm fine......"
"What has life given you?"
"I've worked hard......"
"I'm really fine......"
......
"Time has taught us a lot......"
"If you don't stick a needle in someone's body, they don't know how painful it is. ”
"If there is a chance in the future, I must make it impossible for everyone to ignore my existence!"
"I must ......"
He seemed to have a long, long dream, dreaming of many people and things from before, those voices kept echoing in his head, making him seem to be falling in an endless abyss, his eyes were dark, he wanted to shout but couldn't shout, stretched out his arms and waved around but couldn't touch anything, the infinite depression made him breathless. It fell in that endless darkness for a long time, from panic to despair......
Zero opened his eyes slowly, he was weak, looking at the strange scene in front of him, he didn't even have the strength to make any expression. This sense of vanity had only occurred once three years ago, when he had just woken up in this strange world.
Zero blinked slowly, and after regaining some consciousness, he slowly twisted his head to the side, his gaze moving from the roof to the interior of the house.
It is a very simple wooden house, and the boxy space is filled with all kinds of furniture - beds, low tables, round stools, long tables, wooden cabinets, bookshelves...... A wide variety of items are placed in this room, making the small house a little cramped. The small hanging lamps on the walls and landscape paintings and other decorations make the cottage feel emotional, and not far away the long table by the window is lined with all sorts of things, including books that have been opened or stacked together, large drawings, some of which hang on the side of the table, on which are some magic-related symbols and circles, all kinds of colorful hedrons that shimmer faintly, some utensils that he does not recognize, and all kinds of tools, scrolls, bottles and cans...... All kinds of items are arranged on the long table, which looks quite cluttered.
Zero struggled to sit up on the bed, the wounds on his body were bandaged, his limbs and waist were wrapped in bandages, and he put his hand close to the tip of his nose and smelled a faint smell of medicine. He regained some strength, but the pain in his lower back made him give up on getting out of bed, and the scratch of the monster on his side was the most serious injury on his body. Zero leaned back on the head of the bed and looked at the cabin carefully.
The wooden house does not look so shabby, the whole room looks a little cramped, but the items are neatly arranged, which makes this simple and tidy wooden house look very comfortable. The tea sets on the low table are arranged in an orderly manner, and there is no garbage or dust on the ground, so it seems that the owner of the house is very hygienic. Judging by the plain tulle robe hanging from the chair at the long table not far away, and the shoes on the shoe cabinet by the door, the owner of this wooden house must have been a woman.
The windows were open, a breeze blew in from outside, the pages of the long table turned slightly, the drawings hanging by the table swayed gently, and the room was lit only by a small hanging lamp on the wall, which was not bright in the first place, and the dim light that was not bright made the wooden house seem peaceful and peaceful.
Outside the house there was the chirping of insects, and every now and then there were a few animal chirps, and the wind blew through the treetops, and there was the faint sound of water flowing...... Based on the above, Zero judged that he should still be in the Saling Dense Forest, but he didn't know who would build such a wooden house in such a vast and dense forest where demonic beasts were full of ambushes.
There was a sound of footsteps coming from outside the door, the pace was very light, unhurried, and he looked at the hidden wooden door, only to see that the wooden door was pushed open by a white arm.
"Huh, you're awake. ”
An elegant and beautiful voice came, it was a very beautiful woman, she looked to be in her early 20s, wearing a retro-style white dress, a long dark blue hair was softly draped behind her back, she was in good shape, tall, with a thin waist and long legs.
Zero rarely saw such a good-looking woman, and when the other party approached him with a bowl, he became a little cramped, and after moving twice, he could only lean stiffly against the side of the bed.
Josevi chuckled softly as she looked at the nervous Zero, and after placing the bowl of medicine on the low table, she walked to the edge of the bed and sat down beside Zero.
Zero's heart beat a little faster, and he looked up at the beautiful and dignified woman holding her slender hand with soft knuckles to his cheek, and he shrank back a little uncomfortably.
"Don't be nervous, I'll just see if your fever has subsided. ”
With a warm smile on her face, José looked at Zero and said softly.
Zero relaxed a little and let her caress the side of her face, her face slightly closer, and the two of them were close together. Zero looked into her eyes, and the two looked at each other silently.
She was really beautiful, he had rarely seen such a beautiful woman, excluding the beautiful women he had seen in the Lan'er Imperial Capital, at least he had never seen such a beautiful and natural face so close in his previous life. Her thin willow eyebrows were faintly imprinted above her eyes, her long and slightly curled eyelashes were slightly fanned by the blink, her eyes were large and bright, the blue-gray pupils looked attractive, the nose was small and straight, the mouth was small and ruddy, and her lips were closed at this time, with a slight curvature. She doesn't have powder on her whole face, but she is touching enough, and she is a beautiful and gentle woman.
The two of them looked into each other's eyes so calmly that Zero could even feel each other's gentle snorts and smell the fragrance between her hair. I don't know if it's an illusion that appears after watching it for a long time, Zero seems to see a faint glow emanating from her eyes.
José looked at him, pulled the corners of her mouth and smiled, she opened her mouth and whispered to Zero in a soft voice, "Your eyes are beautiful." ”
Zero was stunned for a moment before he reacted, and he replied in a low voice: "Your eyes are also very good-looking......"
Josevi gently touched the side of his face, and felt the other party's soft palm gently caress his cheek, and a hot current surged in his heart, and a warm feeling arose. He lowered his head, blushing a little.
José turned to the side, leaned out and handed the bowl on the low table to Zero, and then said to him, "Drink this quickly, it's not hot anymore." You've been in a coma for five days, and you've had a high fever during that time, and now that you're awake, drink your own medicine. ”
"Oh oh, thank you......"
Zero took the bowl of medicine and drank it, in fact, he was too thirsty, and having a bowl of medicine to drink could quench his thirst, but fortunately the medicine was not too bitter.
Zero finished drinking the bowl and handed it to Josevi, who took it and put it back on the low table, then took out a handkerchief and wiped Zero's potion-stained chin.
Zero looked at this young, beautiful and gentle woman, and there was a slight throbbing in his heart. If it weren't for his rebirth, he would be much older than the woman in front of him. But her movements and demeanor all make the hearts of people who are nearly forty years old, she is gentle and considerate, and her seemingly cold face has an unparalleled affinity, which makes people unable to have lustful thoughts.
"Did you save me?" asked Zero to her.
Josevi nodded, put away the handkerchief that wiped his mouth, and whispered, "You're almost dead, and if I'm a few seconds too late, those needle-maned wolves will bite off your neck." ”
"Thank you......" Zero squeezed out a smile at her and thanked her heartily.
"What's your name?" she asked.
"Me?" Zero was stunned for a moment, then lowered his eyes and said, "My name is ...... Lin Ling......"
"Zero? Josevi said with a wink.
"What about you?" Zero asked, looking up at her, "What's your name?"
"My name is Joséve Alvernea. Josevi replied.
"Oooh...... How old are you, take the liberty of asking?" Zero asked, looking at her beautiful face, "I just want to know what to call you......"
Josevi chuckled softly, then replied, "I'm only ten years older than you, so you can call me sister." ”
"Oh, Josevi...... Sister ......" Zero called out to her.
Josevi nodded contentedly, then stood up and walked over to the long table to clean up the slightly cluttered table, Zero looked at her back and sighed silently.
"You have a lot of injuries on your body, multiple abrasions and contusions on your upper and lower limbs, sprained ankles, misaligned ligaments, and scratches on your side and waist by animal claws. Minor injuries have recovered almost in the past few days, but your ankles, especially flank scratches, will need to recuperate for at least a week before they heal completely. Josévi said as she cleaned up the table with her back to Zero.
Listening absentmindedly, he lowered his head slightly, looking at his bandaged arm in a daze.
When José was done, she turned and sat down in the back chair, her arms folded around her chest, one leg resting on the other, and the dangling foot was wearing strappy flat-heeled sandals, revealing a small section of smooth and white calf from the long skirt.
She looked at Zero leisurely and said to him, "When you are fully recovered, I will send you back to Crete." ”
When Zero heard this, he suddenly looked up at her with a surprised expression, and he stared at the nonchalant Josevi and said in a daze, "You...... Do you know who I am?"
"It's not hard to guess. Josevi shrugged her shoulders slightly and looked at Zero.
She pursed her lips and smiled faintly, looking at the somewhat surprised expression on Zero's face, she blinked softly and said, "You have a tattoo of the family crest unique to the Cretan family on your right arm. ”
Hearing her words, Zero suddenly realized, turned his face and looked down at the fiery red flame-like tattoo on his arm below his shoulder, which was the family crest tattoo that every Cretan person would tattoo, and it was a supreme honor for most people, but a year ago, Zero was reluctant to get a tattoo for a long time, and finally failed to resist the request of the family elders.
"You're Jeno, aren't you?" asked Josevi as she looked at the pensive Zero.
