Chapter 178: Seems to be an old man
In a trance, Alan saw a large clearing appear at the edge of the woods in front of him, and in the center of the clearing was a small wooden house, the appearance of the wooden house was somewhat dilapidated, and it was dark and unlit, and it seemed that no one lived there. But such a deserted wooden house seemed to be heaven in Allen's eyes, at least it could shelter him from the wind and rain, and he was overjoyed in his heart, and he struggled to walk in the direction of the wooden house with the last bit of strength. Dozens of steps away, it seems that half a century has passed, but Alan finally walked to the door of the wooden house, he wanted to lift his legs and walk up the steps in front of the door, but he felt that his legs weighed a thousand pounds, he used all his strength to take this step, and then he couldn't support it at all, and he threw himself forward, and his head hit the wooden door with a bang.
The impact was not serious, but it made Allen's already trance-like consciousness even more drowsy. Vaguely, he felt a bright light in the room, followed by footsteps, the door was opened, and a girl in a white robe held a candle pushed the door out.
When he saw the girl's face clearly, Alan felt as if he had been struck by lightning.
The girl who walked out of the house was clearly her lover Bai Lanxue, but under the reflection of the candlelight, her face looked more holy and beautiful, and she was still full of girlish aura when the two first met.
"We've fulfilled your last wish, are you here to take me along?"
Alan asked softly. Although he knew that this might be a hallucination caused by his unconscious condition before he died, his heart was still full of joy and satisfaction, and he would not hesitate if death could reunite him with his lover.
"Bai Lanxue!"
Alan softly called her lover's name and stretched out her arms, but the girl did not respond to him, just slowly crouched down, looked at his face, and then reached out and touched his head.
"Honey, it's really you. We will be together in the future and never be apart. ”
The girl's hand was placed on his cold forehead, which made Alan feel so warm, and he hugged the girl excitedly, and the feeling in his arms was so real, just like back then.
It's not an illusion! Allen's tears flowed down his eyes.
The girl did not struggle, let Eren hold her, she touched Alan's palm and began to emit a soft white light, so that Eren forgot about the pain and fatigue, and completely immersed himself in the wonderful dream.
"Miss, who is he?"
A man's voice asked, the last voice Allen heard before he fell unconscious.
"Brandy"
Alan suddenly woke up from his dream and found himself deep in a dilapidated wooden house, empty all around, and there was no trace of his lover at all.
It turned out to be a dream after all!
Alan sighed, his heart was engulfed in desolation again, he closed his eyes again, and lay motionless for a long time, as if reliving the sweetness of his dreams.
"Where is this?"
Alan wiped the corners of his eyes, opened them again, and began to face reality. All he remembered was that he had come to the door of a wooden house last night, so the place he was now should be the one he was in. He rolled over and got up, only to find himself sleeping on a plank bed with withered grass on it, which made him lie on it very comfortably without any discomfort. Through the broken windows, you can see that it is already bright outside, and it is quiet outside, and the autumn rain has finally stopped after a long day. But the autumn wind came in through the hole in the wooden house, carrying the chill after the rain. Alan moved his body for a while, and was surprised to find that his physical condition had recovered a lot, not only the pain in his shoulder was no longer painful, but even the pain in his head had been reduced a lot, and he was able to summon magic elements with ease, which made him feel refreshed. The recovery of his mental strength made him more confident in his next escape operation.
In addition to the neatly stacked dead grass on the bed, there were other traces of human activity in the house, which made Allen's mind flash back to the scene he had seen before he fell unconscious last night, could it be that last night's dream was not all hallucinations, and someone really rescued him at the last moment? But who was the person who saved him, and where is it now? Allen's heart couldn't help but speed up again.
No way!
Alan shook his head, reason telling him that there was no resurrection from death. He touched his pocket, and everything was there, which reassured him a lot. He stood up, his body shaking, and he had to hold on to a pillar beside the bed to stand firm. Although most of his injuries have healed, he has not eaten any food for more than two days, his body is extremely weak, and now he urgently needs some food to fill his stomach, so that he has more strength to start the next escape journey.
"Squeak!"
Alan pushed open the somewhat rotten wooden door, making a grinding sound, it was quiet outside, there was no sign of anyone, it seemed that the good Samaritan who saved him last night just happened to pass by, and now he has left. He Alan also decided to leave as soon as possible, to the nearby river to catch a few fish to eat, he closed the wooden door and walked in the direction of the creek in his memory, but he didn't take two steps, and suddenly there was a sound of footsteps behind him.
The footsteps gradually approached, Alan turned his head in surprise, and just saw a girl in a white robe turn around in the corner of the wooden house, and the girl also happened to look up to see him at this time, and the two of them looked at each other, and they were all stunned for a while.
White Orchid Snow!
The moment he saw the woman's appearance clearly, Alan felt that time had almost stood still.
Big eyes, delicate facial features. The one in front of him is clearly his dead wife, and it seems that he didn't dream last night, or he has been dreaming and hasn't woken up yet.
"Are you awake?"
The girl looked at Alan curiously for a moment, and then was looked at by Allen's horrific eyes a little unnatural, and spoke first to break the silence between the two.
"Do you hear me talking?"
Seeing that Eren did not respond to her question, the girl had to raise her voice and repeat it.
"It's... Yes, I... I woke up. ”
The girl's words finally dragged Eren back from his fantasy to reality, he stammered in reply, and then quietly reached out and pinched his thigh twice, it hurt, not a dream.
There are people in the world who look so much like their wives.
Alan finally realized that the girl in front of him only looked very similar to Bai Lanxue, but she was not alone, it was only because she missed Bai Lanxue too much and her consciousness was a little trance-like that she misrecognized it, and for a while, all kinds of complicated feelings of joy and disappointment came to her heart.
"You know me?"
The girl had apparently discovered Alan's anomaly, and combined with what had happened last night, she asked curiously and vigilantly.
"No... Don't know? just..."
"Just what?"
"It's just that you have some resemblance to an old friend of mine, and at first glance, I thought I was reunited with her. ”
After some conversations, Alan realized more and more clearly that the woman in front of him was completely different from Bai Lanxue's bones. First of all, the woman's voice was completely different from Bai Lanxue's Yuss accent, and even the accent of the eastern residents of Higg, more like the accent of the southern countries, although she spoke the common language of the mainland at the moment, but it still sounded very obscure. Secondly, although the woman's facial features are very similar to Bai Lanxue, but the skin is much fairer, obviously living in a pampered environment, again, the woman looks a few years younger than Bai Lanxue, only sixteen or seventeen years old, close to Miranda's age, and finally, the woman's demeanor is completely different from Bai Lanxue, Bai Lanxue gives people the feeling of being as kind and natural as the valley orchid, and the woman's eyebrows in front of her reveal an inviolable awe-inspiring atmosphere, like a snow lotus on the top of the mountain, beautiful and repulsive thousands of miles away。
