Chapter Ninety-Four: Heartbreak
"Lilith, I'm sorry for her, but I didn't kill her!"
Bang!
A thunderbolt split the heavens and the earth, dark clouds obscured the moonlight, and the downpour fell heavily, smashing heads and faces on the two of them.
The weather here is very strange, it is winter, but in the last few days it has been as hot as summer, and now the rain is colder than the average ice.
A glowing magic array illuminated the area, making the expressions of the two of them subtle.
Angela's wand fell into the dirt, making a splash.
The magic array loosened, William was put down, Angela stepped forward, tugged at the edge of the collar of his tattered armor, lifted her up, and asked in a hurried voice, "What are you talking about, Lilith, Lilith is her ......"
"How could I kill Lilith!" William had a look of relief in his eyes, and he recalled, "At that critical moment, I woke up, and then ran away with Lilith in my arms, and after escaping from those pursuers, I entrusted Lilith to an old hunter before I lost my mind. ”
Angela let go of her hand, and William fell headlong into the dirt.
Her delicate countenance contorted, and she fell to her knees, her knees sinking into the dirt, and laughed exaggeratedly.
"Hahaha...... Hahaha......"
Angela covered her face with her hands, laughed and cried again, repeating "Lilith is fine, Lilith is fine......"
Bang!
Another thunderbolt fell, the rain was even heavier, and the surroundings were cold, but Angela's heart was on fire!
……
A basin of cold water was poured on her face, and Lilith shuddered and hurriedly got up from the haystack.
"Lazy worm, scum, get up!"
The rough voice exploded in the eardrums, and in the midst of the harsh scolding of the fat maid, Lilith hurriedly got dressed.
The wattle was pumped on the body one after another, leaving traces of redness and swelling.
Lilith rushed out the door, grabbed the bucket and ran to the well to fetch water.
Stepping barefoot in the snow, his feet were red.
Lilith gritted her teeth and struggled to carry the bucket into the house, relieved by the warmth of the fireplace.
Throwing the cloth into the bucket, then taking it out and wringing out the water, and just about to wipe the floor, the head maid walked in, the triangular eyes looked at Lilith viciously, and then slammed the basin full of clothes in his hand to the ground, showing a disgusting smile: "Lilith, you go wash the clothes." ”
Lilith's face was pale, it was winter, she was wearing only a thin dress, no shoes, it was snowing outside, and it was terrible to go out to wash clothes at this time.
Lilith showed a begging look, and the maid's face became distorted: "Lazy worm, dregs, wild hairy child, do you still want the old lady to help you wash it." ”
As he spoke, he picked up the wattle in his hand and pulled it towards Lily.
Lilith shuddered, and there was an extra bloodstain on her arm.
She endured the pain, her eyes were full of tears, she vigorously picked up the wooden basin full of clothes and walked out with her head down.
When she went out, a cold wind blew, making her shiver.
"Grandpa, sister......"
Tears slipped from the corners of her eyes, and she hurriedly wiped away her tears, in such weather, if the tears froze on her face, it would be terrible.
I walked to the well, fetched another bucket of water, poured it into the wooden basin, put my little hand into the wooden basin, and began to wash my clothes.
Snowflakes were fluttering, and there were surprisingly few pedestrians outside, and occasionally one or two passed by in a hurry.
Lilith washed as she thought about her happy life in the past.
She remembered that she should have had an older sister, and she was very good to herself, and at that time, they lived in a big house.
When it is hot in summer, my sister helps her fan to repel mosquitoes, and in the cool breeze, she can sleep peacefully.
In winter, she can snuggle into her sister's warm embrace, covered with a thick and soft quilt.
When she was hungry, her sister would prepare him delicious food, and she was thirsty and had sweet milk.
However, a fire separates them.
Mom took her sister and ran away, and Dad gave her to the old hunter grandfather, who was very kind to her, and although he was poor during that time, he was happy.
Later, when her grandfather was killed by a bear, she came here, and with a deerskin, she was lucky enough to become a maid in a noble family.
With a plop, Lilith woke up from a dream, and quickly looked up, and saw a scrawny man outside the fence lying headlong in the snow on the side of the road.
At least, I was lucky.
Thinking so, Lilith sped up her laundry, thinking that she would be able to finish her laundry quickly, and she would be able to go into the warm room and eat some food.
When she finished her laundry, her hands were frozen and she lost consciousness.
Lilith entered the room tiredly, the old lady and the young master had finished eating, and the leftovers on the table were being put away by another maid.
Lilith ran forward, asking for some leftovers, but was forced back by the maid's cold gaze.
She walked to the kitchen and wanted some food, but when she met the head maid, she smiled coldly: "Wash your clothes, you want to have breakfast, no way!" ”
"Hungry!"
The head maid left cold words, which made Lilith fall into the ice cellar: "Hurry up and clean the courtyard." ”
I was about to go out again, Lilith hung her head and lifted the broom, touched the door, and opened the door hesitantly, the cold wind blew, and the body that had just warmed up trembled violently.
Lilith was worried, she was afraid she would get sick.
She had seen with her own eyes what happened to the sick maids, who were thrown out and never returned.
In a winter town, it's not just the weather that kills, but also all kinds of hungry monsters.
"Sister......
Lilith muttered to herself, how she wished to see her sister again, whose memory had faded.
"What are you doing all the time?"
The door slammed open, and the chief maid rushed out with a menacing attitude, raising the wattle in her hand.
Lilith lowered her head in a panic, her vision blurred by tears.
Rumble!
A bitter cold wind blew through her body, but the expected pain did not come.
The fat chief maid slammed through the door and plunged headlong into the room, and there was a ruffled ping-pong noise.
A cloak woman walked through the broken hedge with a magic wand in her hand and through the wind and snow.
She stopped in front of Lilith, who was supposed to be scared.
This woman looks so weird, and in this day and age, this weirdness represents danger.
But Lilith was not afraid, on the contrary, she felt relieved.
Lilith raised her head and asked expectantly, "Sister! ”
The cloak slipped from the woman's body, revealing a delicate face that had been wet with tears, and the black hair and black eyes were so conspicuous in the wind and snow.
She pulled her cloak and gently draped it over Lilith, wrapping her around.
The thermostatic circle embroidered on the cloak was so warm in this winter, and Lilith's warm body was stiff because of the cold.
