Chapter 173: You're Really... Only eight and a half years old, right?

Brother Lotter, I heard that Brother Liao Qi's blood clan guard has brought back Uncle John's body, don't you want to take a look? Emma's voice came from behind the boy.

It was noon, but the clouds in the sky had not dispersed, and the earth was still shrouded in a continuous drizzle.

In a desolate and remote corner of the village of Divine Grace, young Lott sat alone on the stone steps, staring blankly at the rain curtain in front of him, not even hearing the voice of the little girl behind him.

"Brother Lotter!" Seeing this, Emma had to take a few more quick steps, and she came to the young man's side and patted him on the shoulder vigorously.

"Huh? What the... Emma, yes, what's the matter..."

Lott was suddenly awakened, and his eyes finally regained their light, but they were still too dim compared to the old boy.

"I said, Uncle John's body has returned to the village, and is now about to be buried, won't you go?" Seeing the young man with a confused face, Emma could only repeat it helplessly.

The little girl also spent a long time trying to find Lot, who hid herself.

The purpose of her coming was not to inquire at all, but to let the young man come with her to attend the burial.

However, after listening to Emma's words, Lott lowered his head and said evasively:

"I... I'm not going to go. ”

“...”

The girl who received the answer was stunned for a moment, and then immediately appeared on her little face, and Emma immediately asked in a coquettish voice in her still very immature voice:

"Why!"

However, a depressed Lott did not answer Emma's question.

Instead, the boy turned his head and asked about the little girl.

"Emma, why can... It's so easy to say this? Lott said, clenching his fists.

The reason why he would run to such a place where no one was was because he didn't want to let himself hear about John again, which had become a haze in the young man's heart, and he didn't even dare to think about it.

But the little girl opposite, Emma didn't seem to feel much about John's death, from the girl's tone, the boy could feel it, as if this matter was for Emma...

It's very ordinary, it's very ordinary.

This was incomprehensible to Lot.

And Emma's words next also made Lott seem to reacquaint himself with the little girl in front of him for the first time.

"Because... Isn't it normal for someone to die for the village? ”

"Why could my father sacrifice for the village, but not Uncle John? Why is it that I'm the only one who has lost my dad and not the other kids? ”

The young man looked at the little girl with a look of surprise in his eyes, and at this moment he was saying such indifferent and ruthless words with a calm expression.

But he still underestimated Emma too much, because the little girl's words were not over yet.

"Besides, Uncle John's body was recovered by Brother Liao Qi, and he can even be buried intact in the village, but what about my father?"

"Who's going to get my dad's body back, who's going to put it together for my dad... A body torn to pieces by a demonic tyrannosaurus? ”

"So, Uncle John, who is already so lucky, still need me to mourn his pain?"

After the female fairy tale ended, Lott opened her mouth.

"Emma, you—" The teenager struggled to refute Emma's words.

But after a long time, but he couldn't say anything, Lott didn't say a word, and closed his mouth again, but the fist under his hand clenched tighter.

At this point, Emma continued to speak.

"Brother Lot, do you really think that even if you go to the jungle with Uncle John today, you can avoid death? In Emma's opinion, Brother Lot, you didn't go with you today, but it was the best result. ”

Without giving Lott a chance to ask, Emma took it upon herself to give her reasons.

A reason that shocked the young boy.

"Because... Compared to Uncle John, who died, Emma felt that if even Brother Lott died there, everyone would be more devastated and painful than now, right? ”

"You... Are you saying that my life is more precious than the other villagers? "Lott seems to be greatly stimulated.

"What are you kidding, I, I—" He became agitated.

Emma on the other side seemed to have expected it.

Before the boy could finish organizing her language, the little girl directly affirmed vigorously:

"That's right, Brother Lot, your life is more precious than Uncle John, than Emma, and even Sister Binana, more than all of us!"

"No, it's not..."

"I'm actually... It's just a useless waste who lives up to everyone's expectations..."Lott held his head and fell into a great self-denial.

Seeing the young man's appearance, Emma sighed, and the little girl's faint voice echoed in Lot's ears.

"Brother Lot, you can not believe the eyes of everyone in the village, and you can not believe Emma, but... Haven't you felt that Brother Liao Qi also has a special attitude towards you?

"Brother Liao Qi's treatment of my... Special attitude? The boy muttered to himself after Emma's words, apparently not getting it.

"Yes, the most straightforward point is that the career tasks given to you by Brother Liao Qi are different from those of others." The little girl must untie the knot in Lot's heart.

She...

It is necessary to maintain the relationship between Lott and Liao Qi.

Emma knew it was going to be important for her, for the teenager, and for the whole village!

"You and I are the closest people in the village to Brother Liao Qi, and even me, a little girl of eight or nine years old, Brother Liao Qi can easily give me professional strength..."

"So, Brother Lot, think about it, why does Brother Liao Qi refuse to give you professional power directly, but instead let you complete the extremely difficult task of swinging the sword 10,000 times?

"An eight- or nine-year-old girl, a teenager, if you are Liao Qi's brother, who would you choose to reuse? Or do you think Brother Liao Qi chose Emma just because he has a special habit of liking young girls? ”

The little girl's words hit Lotter's heart.

In fact, in the heart of the young man, he has also been haunted by the matter of professional tasks, and Lotte is desperate to gain great strength, as can be seen from the fact that he did not hesitate to break his arm yesterday and swing his sword desperately.

The young man didn't understand why he and the other young people were all villagers of Divine Grace Village, but he didn't get a similar task from Liao Qi to others, but instead "swing the sword ten thousand times", something that would almost take several months to complete.

Lott was depressed for a long time, and only blamed it on his natural bad luck to do such slow tasks.

However, Emma's next words were completely unexpected.

"It's potential and talent." The little girl said word by word.

"Emma thinks that it is precisely because Brother Liao Qi sees that Brother Lott has a huge potential that is greater than all of us, so she is unwilling to perfunctory brother you, and wants you to get a stronger and more powerful career than us."

"Moreover, Emma has a hunch that this profession must be the only one in you, Brother Lot, and it is a profession that only Lott can do!"

The boy was so shocked by the little girl's words that he was speechless.

What's even more amazing is that his originally disheartened heart is beating violently again at this moment, like a resurrection.

Don't...

Could it be that what Emma said is true?

Does he really have any one-in-a-million talents, is it precisely because Brother Liao Qi sees his potential that he "deliberately" hones himself in this way?

"Emma you, you're really... Eight and a half years old, right? The young man, who had finally recovered from his excitement, looked at the girl in front of him with a little fear.

"Ahh When is it, and there is still kung fu to care about Emma's age, I don't know the age of the girl can't ask! ”

When the little girl saw the renewed sparkle in Lot's eyes, she knew she had succeeded.

Relieved, she even took the opportunity to make a joke.

Of course, jokes are jokes, my side has been delayed for so long, if I don't hurry up, I won't be able to catch up with Uncle John's burial, besides, in fact, the burial is a trivial matter, and letting the boy take the opportunity to meet Liao Qi is what Emma wants.

Thereupon...

"Okay, let's go, Brother Lot, I must apologize to Brother Liao Qi for your previous behavior in a while!"

After the little girl finished speaking, she immediately took the young man's hand and dragged Lott up from the stone steps, and the two walked quickly towards the place where John was buried, and the figure quickly disappeared into the drizzle.
