Chapter 32: Brother and Sister
Demon Seed's attacks on the Great Wall have become more and more frequent in recent times.
Hua Mulan looked at the mountains of demon corpses piled up under the city wall, her brows furrowed, and deep disgust flashed in her eyes.
Sometimes, when she kept vigil, she would look at the stars in the night sky and wonder why there was such a creature as the Demon Seed.
They are so greedy that they will one day destroy the world!
But she couldn't tell this idea to the Baili brothers, they had demon seed blood flowing in their bodies, but they were neither demon seeds nor humans.
Speaking of which, during this time, the Baili brothers set off to the watchtower to be on duty, but they couldn't set off with them to recover the Jade City.
The cooks who accompanied the army were not good at keeping the promise, and within a few days, the military rations prepared for them in front of the watchtower had already been eaten.
After the devastation of the dark cuisine of the army cook, Hua Mulan misses the porridge made by the covenant more and more, even if Xuan Ce likes to grab meat, but the food he cooks is really delicious!
Because he couldn't eat the food cooked by the chef other than the one who kept the promise, he had borrowed the general's carrier pigeon and sent a message to the Baili brothers, asking them to come over quickly.
When Mulan thought that Shou Yu was opening a small stove for Xuan Ce in the watchtower, she was in a very bad mood, and the more she thought about it, the more angry she became!
She crushed the steamed bun suddenly, and in the eyes of the armor and Su Lie, she went to the General's Hall with her heavy sword on her back, and asked Ying to clear the demon seed in the Jade Square.
These days, the jade square in Jade City has been occupied by the wisdom demon seed, but after the three of them captured the jade square, they didn't see the wisdom demon seed appear, but the Baili brothers came with a group of people.
Among them were Armor's sister Luna, and adventurers from faraway lands.
The Jade City has been recovered, and the next thing has nothing to do with them, and the attention of the Mulan team was attracted by the armor's sister.
At the bonfire party that celebrates the reconquest of the Jade City that day, the story of the two hard-working siblings is finally brought up by Luna.
Luna says that they are members of the Arcana, a Western demonic family that bears a sinful fate.
“…… My brother took everything on my back to cut off this sinful fate, and I owe him so much. Luna's eyes were gentle, looking at the expressionless but faintly touched indifferent swordsman.
Her eyes were firm, "Everything has to be done, defeat you, and take you home, brother." ”
Mulan was stunned when she heard this, and her gaze, which was originally looking at the roaring bonfire, turned to the armor. It wasn't just her who looked at the armor, but also the rest of the team, as well as three strangers who claimed to be adventurers.
The indifferent swordsman groaned for a moment and looked at the captain who gave the name, he wanted to see how she reacted, would he be reluctant?
Hua Mulan and Kai's eyes met, and she felt a little flustered in her heart, and hurriedly avoided his eyes.
That look is like a little milk dog that is about to be abandoned by its owner.
She knew that Kai might have a little affection for her, but at the Great Wall, this kind of affection was too extravagant.
Her fate, not him!
Luna continued, "I know my brother can't leave here, but I'm going to give it a try. ”
Seeing her brother looking at the female warrior, Luna's eyes showed a hint of envy, my brother has someone he likes over the years!
Hua Mulan looked at the bitter smile on the corner of her mouth and heard her say, "My brother has lost his memory and can't remember the past, but I will tell him slowly that I will stay here until he is willing to go home with me." ”
None of them spoke, and the voices around the other campfires disturbed everyone's thoughts.
Mulan was reluctant to leave the team, but she didn't know about his past, and she couldn't help restore his memories, let alone let him stay.
If he wants to leave the Great Wall, should I persuade him?
Kai retracted his gaze and stared at the barbecue that Shou had placed on the bonfire with Xuan Ce, and Su Lie poured bowls of wine and handed them one after another.
In the silence of everyone in the team, the stranger in the white cloak and red dress spoke tentatively, "Luna, what if your brother's memory won't be restored?" ”
Mulan looked at Luna, who smiled and said, "I'll wait for my brother, there's always a way for all this." ”
After meeting her brother, she also thought about what she would do if her brother could not recover his memory in his life and died on the Great Wall.
She is willing to give her life to her brother, but she is not willing to let her brother give her life to the Great Wall!
Hua Mulan wiped the two light swords, without any expression, probably feeling this strange atmosphere, Xuan Ce did not grab meat with the armor, and gave the first piece of meat to the armor amicably.
Baili Xuance's eyes flashed slightly, and he had a small expression of grievance, "Flesh~"
"It's okay, there's still one." Baili Shouyu comforted his younger brother with a smile and handed the second piece of meat to Xuan Ce.
Xuan Ce happily ate the wine, Su Lie looked at him gobbling up, and persuaded him: "Slow down, no one will rob you." ”
"Mmmmmm~" Baili Xuance nodded happily, his big red tail flicked around behind him, thinking that his brother's cooking skills were awesome~
Hirsch's eyes are full of Xuan Ce's red tail flicking around, so cute and cute, so cute and soft that I want to touch~
She forced her impulsive paws to take the wine, drank it down, and withdrew her strange thoughts.
Guiguzi and Mengqi, the two visitors who don't eat the fireworks in the world, insist on not eating the barbecue made by Baili Shou, but fight with Su Lie for wine.
During the conversation between the two, Guiguzi learned that Li Bai was the friend of the warrior in front of him, and the king of Lanling was one of the countless enemies of the Great Wall.
Looking at Xuan Ce, who was not worried, Mulan smiled knowingly, and the bonfire warmed her beautiful face, and her eyebrows and eyes were crooked.
She thought that Xuan Ce must have thought that the armor would leave, so she didn't rob him!
While she was thinking nonsense, a stranger handed her a bowl of wine: "General Hua, come to the bar." ”
Seeing that he was staring at her, the visitor from a foreign land turned his face away, and said embarrassedly: "After drinking, maybe, your question will naturally have an answer." ”
Will it?
Mulan glanced at her, took it silently, and drank it all.
She put down the bowl and frowned at the sight of the stranger looking at her. The girl smiled slightly, shook her head, and didn't say anything.
Mulan looked at the armor and recalled the indifferent swordsman who had lost his memory when he first saw him.
She never asked about Armor's past, and Armor didn't tell them anyone. Hua Mulan knew that the armor must be carrying a very heavy secret, and that secret made him willing to forget everything, even far away from his hometown.
"I'm ......" the indifferent swordsman spoke, he put down the roast in his hand, stood up, his gaze swept over the present, and finally stopped on Luna's face: "I don't plan to leave the Great Wall, little sister. ”
Hua Mulan and the group of people who ate meat and drank looked up at him, and when they were surprised, Kai spoke again, "Little sister, you said before that all the relatives of the family are gone...... Then there is no need for us to go back. ”
Luna's face changed slightly, and the moment she got up, she returned to normal, and she smiled and comforted her brother, "It's okay, brother, I said before that I would give you my life." If you don't leave, then I'll stay too! ”
Armor's expression was slightly stunned, "You want to join the Great Wall Guards?" ”
Luna: Black question mark?
Hirsch couldn't hold back a smile, what kind of brain circuit is this?
Then, under the watchful eye of the other foodies, Mulan stood up, walked up to Luna, and uttered the first words of the campfire tonight: "Luna, would you like to join the Great Wall Guards?" ”
