Chapter VII Hope

"Kid, are you tired? When you are tired, you can go into my simple tent and sit down, drink a glass of water, and talk to my old woman. The gentle voice coming from inside the tent woke up Zhao Long, who was still fighting between heaven and man in his heart.

"It's a blessing or a curse, it's a curse that can't be avoided." Zhao Long said this sentence and entered the tent.

After entering, he saw a standing man, who was looking at him carefully, and he also quietly looked at the person in front of him.

This person was less than 1.7 meters tall, with a blue cloth wrapped around his head, and a pair of white eyes on his beautiful face, and he saw that those white eyes flashed and emitted blue light, as if he had seen through him.

The person standing in front of Zhao Longzhi Dao who was looking at him was the Great Elder of the Human Alliance and the heir of the God of Prophecy - Nun Akara, looking at her face that had been slowly eroded by the wrinkles, thinking that she was a woman who had supported the hope of mankind for 100 years, he felt sincere admiration and respect in his heart, but he also felt a sad feeling in his heart.

"Come, sit, don't stand, kid." After a while, the person in front of him greeted him.

"Xie Lu, Grandma Xie Akara." Zhao Long bowed and sat down on a chair next to him. "Grandma?" After Akara heard Hou Zheng, he brought him a glass of water, and Zhao Long hurriedly got up and took it with both hands.

"Son, what's your name? How old is this year? Akara asked.

"My name is Zhao Long, I'm 25 years old, and I live in the Bula family in the slum to the north."

"Dear dragon, are you in the habit of living? Is there anything I need to do?

......, this is a drunken shrimp leading a snail to describe the time.

An afternoon passed, and I lost track of time in a chat with Akara and before I knew it, it was evening. For a whole afternoon, Zhao Long's worried question, his life experience, Akara never mentioned it, which also made him let go of a hanging heart.

When he got up and went home, he said to Akara, "Grandma Akara, you have a smell in you." ”

"Oh? What does it taste like?" Akara asked, confused.

"It's the same smell as the statue in the pool."

"Lord Tarasya? Dear dragon, you're coming over once tomorrow, and I'll show you something. Akara said to Zhao Long, who had already gone out of the door.

"Tomorrow? It's good. I know it, so I'll go back first. ”

After Zhao Long left, Akara quietly thought for a long time in the tent, and suddenly spoke into the air: "How do you feel?" With a "buzz", a circle of light appeared behind the tent, and four people walked out of it in turn.

These four people, if Zhao Long hadn't gone and seen them, he would have known who they were.

They are the Big Four who assist Acala in managing Rogue's camp: the mercenary leader - Kasha, the wise man - Kane, the caravan leader - Varif, and the merchant known as the "profiteer and vampire" - Kidd.

"Yes, but you, old man, tell me what the God of Prophecy has shown you first?" Kasha, dressed in a red tight-fitting suit and draped in a black cloak, asked.

"Hehe, hehehe, I saw it, hope, I saw the hope of humanity and the figure of Lord Talasha." Akara said excitedly.

"What?" Kasha, Kane and Varif, as well as Kidd, exclaimed at the same time.

The five people in the tent sat quietly facing each other, and after half an hour, Kane, who had the face of a public old man, opened and closed his eyes, his eyes were different from Acala's, they were crystal clear, and they made people feel like a fresh breeze.

He asked tentatively, "Did you tell him just now that the thing you were going to show him tomorrow was a handscroll of Lord Tarasya?" ”

"Yes." Akara replied with a smile.

"Could it be that this imp is the same as Lord Tarasha?" Varref, dressed as a merchant, asked Akara in disbelief.

"No wonder you didn't ask him all afternoon what his profession was, where he came from, so it was, so it was."

Kidd, who was dressed in a white robe with a lot of burns and black spots on his clothes, nodded to himself.

"Isn't it, we'll know tomorrow, I'm looking forward to it, I'm really looking forward to it." Akara said with his eyes closed.

In the northernmost part of the slum, he saw the gate of Bhular's house, Zhao Long walked towards the door hungrily, he thought as he walked, why didn't Xiao Gengzai play at the door with other little ghosts today?

Zhao Long, who had just stepped into the door, saw the darkness and felt very strange, everyone was eating at this time of the day, why was everyone not here today, and the fire was not lit, what's wrong?

"Who?" Someone in the dark asked.

"I, Grandpa Fan, why don't you light the lamp? What about everyone? ”

"Ah~~~ Dragon?! It's you? Rafan's voice trembled in surprise came from the darkness.

Then I heard him shout, "Come down, the dragon is back, you all come down quickly." ”

The magic oil lamp was lit, illuminating the entire room, and also allowing Zhao Long to see Rafan sitting in the corner and his haggard face.

"Wow" came from the second floor a running sound, Zhao Long didn't react to what was going on, only to see a small figure pounced on him in the cry of "wow", he hugged it and found that Xiao Gengzai's eyes were red and swollen after crying, his little hands hugged him tightly, and looked up at other people with red eyes.

When he reacted, he remembered a picture he had seen on TV in the hospital before: a family member was sentenced to cancer, and the relatives present cried after learning the news of this thunderbolt. The scene at this moment was almost exactly the same as the image he had in his mind.

He trembled and asked, "Home, is there anyone in the family who has an incurable disease?" ”

After a long while, Zhao Long understood what was going on.

It turned out that Zhao Long gave the bag of gold coins to Lafan in the afternoon, and then went out, and the Bhullar family knew that only the transferees could have so much money, thinking of the transferees who had been wandering around the slums for the past few months, Zhao Long followed the trip until 7 o'clock in the evening and did not come back, everyone thought that he would not come back, and they would not see him anymore, and everyone could not accept it for a while, especially Xiao Gengzai, who had been sleeping with Zhao Long since he appeared at home.

Zhao Long's eyes were red and tears rolled in his eyes, looking at everyone tightly hugging Xiao Gengzi who was crying and sleeping, and said: "If you don't go, I will never leave, as Grandpa Fan said, we are a family, a family that will never be separated." ”

After the misunderstanding was explained, everyone sat down at the table together, and everyone returned to the same appearance as before, at this time, Zhao Long, who was still holding Xiao Gengzai, weakly asked the aunt sitting opposite him: "Auntie, can you have dinner?" I'm starving. ”

"Ah, yes, Xiaoying, don't go and prepare dinner yet! Pepper, go, go buy wine and meat, let's celebrate, hahaha...... Ha lu haha. Rafan swept away his haggard expression and said loudly with a smile on his face.

During the meal, when Zhao Long drank the fifth glass of wine, "Grandpa Fan, tomorrow you go shopping with your uncle, aunt, and sister Ping, and paint the house, you don't have to spend that money, I can earn it, you all know that I am a job changer, and it is easy to make money." Especially Sister Ping must be dressed up beautifully, and I really want to see how you look in your new clothes now

The next morning, when Zhao Long came to Akara's tent, he said loudly, "Grandma Akara, I'm coming," and lifted the cloth covering the tent door and went in.

Zhao Long, who entered the tent, was startled.

He saw that there were four people sitting inside except for Akara, and when he went in, he found that these four people had been staring at him, and after Akara told him to sit down, these four people still kept looking at him, and he was horrified to watch.

At that time, he almost blurted out a classic movie dialogue - "What do you want to do?" The slave family is under 18 this year".

In his uneasiness, Akara "coughed" and said, "Dragon, did you sleep well last night?" ”

In fact, from the first day Zhao Long stepped into the Rog camp to the present, someone reported it to the Big Five in the tent every day, and what happened at Bhullar's house last night made their hearts more stable, because Zhao Long had a home concern in his heart.

"Very good, Xie Lu Xie cares."
