Chapter 48: Autumn Town 1
"Xu'er!" Brother Chen Liu scolded the scared Su'er, "What did I teach you?" Don't judge a book by its cover! He thought that Tian Luo might be "terrible" to grow, so he said nonsense.
"Brother......" After hiding behind her brother, she finally calmed down, realizing that it was very rude for her to say that she was a man-eating monster just because she saw this sister's red eyes.
"Sister, I'm sorry. I shouldn't judge people by their appearance. "I have to say that this brother taught Su'er very well. In fact, any child may have that reaction when he sees Tian Luo's red eyes, but it is very rare that Su'er can apologize immediately after calming down.
"What if I say I'm a monster?" Tian Luo came to such a sentence faintly.
"......" So the two children didn't know how to reply, thinking that Tian Luo might be angry. He looked at Tian Luo nervously.
At this moment, the oath bag released cold air again, but this time it was Chen Liu who reacted. He looked suspiciously at the place where Tian Luo had put the oath bag.
Then he turned his ear slightly to the direction of the field as if he was listening to something. And Tian Luo himself also put all his attention on his sleeve pocket because of the sudden cold. Therefore, I didn't see Chen Liu's sudden expression.
The two men finally returned. I found that the atmosphere of the open space was a little stagnant.
Ding Ning walked back to their resting place without saying a word, sat down and polished his sword, but secretly paid attention to the movements of the audience. The wizard wandered in front of the two children who were staring at the basket and asked, "What's wrong with you?" ”
The two children did not answer. The wizard looked strangely at Tian Luo, who was also silent, but still did not get a response.
Shaking his head, the wizard moved closer to the child, bending down to probe Chen Liu's pulse, but the child silently stepped back to show his refusal. "What the hell is going on? Are you afraid of me? The wizard said bluntly.
"Chen Liu, aren't you cured?" The wizard asked again.
The child shook his head, a wary expression.
Tian Luo spoke at this time: "Da Wu, the oath bag was deceived by him. And then... And then the stream of fireflies burrowed into his body! ”
"What!" The wizard was shocked, but he didn't expect that he promised Ding Ning that the flower essence couldn't come out on his front foot, and the spirit on his back foot actually escaped, and even got into the mortal body!?
Ding Ning stood up with his sword raised, making a posture of preparing to attack, and the tip of the sword pointed directly at Chen Liu.
"Child, there's no way, I originally wanted to cure you and find you a good family to foster you, but now you can only follow us until I get that flower essence out of your body." The wizard blocked Ding Ning's murderous aura and made the final decision. Tian Luo nodded, so Ding Ning put down the long sword, but he rarely snorted coldly, which attracted Tian Luo's sideways.
The night passed. They set off again, but with two more children, and the rest of the children did not know what method the wizard used, and at dawn well-trained officers and soldiers came to the rescue and promised to make proper arrangements for adoption.
The carriage was rolling, but it was strangely quiet. Because of the delay of the day's trip, the wizard and Ding Ning showed the way outside, while Tian Luo was arranged to watch the two children in the car. But the strange thing is that the three of them glanced at each other and remained quiet.
At noon that day, the group finally arrived at a small town called Qiucheng, and the carriage stopped steadily at a small inn in a remote location, and the wizard shouted through the curtain: "Tian Luo, you have arrived in the town, you quickly take them down." The wizard thought that Tian Luo would be happy, because along the way she was thinking about what village and town she could experience the mortal life.
But when he finished shouting, he only responded with a very simple or even indifferent "Got it." ”
The wizard shrugged his shoulders, thinking that Tian Luo was still immersed in the guilt of 'letting go of the flower essence', so he didn't say anything more and walked into the inn first.
Lunch wasn't rich, but it was the best they've had lately. Spiced beef, husband and wife lung slices, minced eggplant, roasted pork yam, stir-fried cabbage and peanuts. The two children hadn't eaten these serious meals for a long time, and the two pairs of eyes stared at the table full of delicacies during the serving of the food.
"Tian Luo, there are not many fresh fruits and vegetables here, you will eat some." Along the way, the wizard knew Tian Luo's eating habits well. Although she likes to eat fruit most of the time, she is actually an omnivore and can eat anything, but she has never liked to eat hot, in order to accommodate the two men, plus she has no sense of taste, so naturally she has been eating fruit or eating some cold vegetables.
"I don't have much appetite today, just drink some water." Tian Luo, who has always eaten on time, was abnormal again today, and then she pushed away the dishes and chopsticks in front of her, and really only drank water from the teacup.
The wizard frowned, feeling that Tian Luo was a little strange today. He secretly glanced at Ding Ning and found that the other party started to eat without any reaction, so he let go of his desire to ask Tian Luo about the reason for his abnormality and began to eat.
Chen Liu and Chen Su's stomachs were already grumbling with hunger. What's more, the dishes in front of them were so delicious that they couldn't even remember when they had never eaten such a meal since they started.
"You two eat slowly, no one will rob you, be careful of indigestion." There was only the sound of eating at the table, and it was rare for a wizard to say a few words.
He sandwiched a slice of fat and lean beef into Chen Liu's bowl. The child swallowed it in one gulp, and then thanked the wizard. But the wizard who watched this scene was full of doubts in his heart.
Lunch ended quickly. Ding Ning didn't know what to discuss with the wizard, and went out alone, the wizard looked at Tian Luo and the two children who were sitting in a daze, and suddenly proposed: "Ding Ning has something to do, let's go to the town first." ”
But he was once again unexpectedly refused, because three people, including Tian Luo, shook their heads at the same time.
"Don't you want to play? It's too boring to be bored in an inn. Although Autumn City is only a small town, it is actually a famous puppet show town, and there are many puppet shows on the street, which is very beautiful. "Sorcerer persuasion.
This time, he saw obvious longing on the faces of the two children, Chen Liu and Chen Su, and although they tried their best to control their expressions, they still couldn't hide it. But Tian Luo shook his head slightly, and the two children immediately quieted down, as if the desire just now had never appeared.
"Tian Luo, what's wrong with you today, I'm going to be angry if you are so negative master." The wizard jokingly moved out of his master's position, because he had to remind Tian Luo of how he should behave as a demon pet.
"I feel a little tired and want to rest." Tian Luo leaned listlessly on the back of his chair, and then yawned, looking very tired.
So the wizard compromised and opened the room for Tian Luo to go back to rest. He watched Tian Luo close the door and smiled at him in the crack of the door, but what did the smile think... Uncanny.
As soon as Tian Luo closed the door of the dead room, the smile on his face faded, and then the whole person moved left and right in the room as if crazy!
