Chapter 179: Beware

"Are your injuries better?"

Although the girl's expression was serious, her words were full of concern.

"Much better, thank you for saving me. ”

After a brief gaffe, Alan finally gradually regained himself, and he bowed slightly to the girl to express his gratitude

"Miss, this person is a little unknown, we have to be careful..."

Suddenly a man's voice came, and Alan noticed that there was an old man in a white robe who appeared with the woman, and the old man was standing behind the woman, just now his eyes were completely attracted by the woman, so that he ignored the existence of the old man, and he didn't find out until the old man spoke. And when the old man saw that Alan was staring at the girl with straight eyes and staring at her, his heart could not help but be full of vigilance, he stepped forward and walked to the woman's side, leaned down and whispered a few words in the woman's ear.

Although Alan didn't fully hear what the old man said, he knew in his heart that he was afraid that the old man would not have anything good to say, and he might be a little worried about who he was staring at the girl just now. However, it is not convenient to explain this matter in detail, and you can't directly say to a strange woman that you look like my wife, so it's strange that you are not regarded as a hooligan. Thinking about all this, Alan put away his thoughts and decided to leave as soon as possible, after all, he was still in danger, although yesterday's rain would make it difficult for the enemy to search for him, but it did not mean that he was out of danger. And Alan has more worries, his own mental strength has recovered a lot, even if the enemy catches up, it is not without the strength of a battle, but if he stays for a long time, he may affect the girl and the old man, and Alan is very clear about the means of the Holy See, and they will never mind a few more lives.

"You're leaving?"

After listening to the old man's words, the girl returned her attention to Allen, and her eyes were like torches, and she saw through Allen's thoughts at once.

"Yes. ”

"We found some food, maybe you can eat it before you leave. ”

The girl carried a worn-out basket on her arm, which contained some wild vegetables and bamboo shoots, and was stained with water droplets, which she must have just picked in the mountains.

"No, I'm not hungry. ”

Alan replied with some gloom, his gaze reluctantly averting from the face that looked very much like his lover.

"Gollum!"

But just as Eren turned to step away, his stomach betrayed him, and a sound sounded that represented his state at this time.

"I saved your life, and you don't seem to believe me. ”

The girl looked at Alan who was a little embarrassed with big eyes and said.

"It's not that I don't believe it..."

Alan wanted to explain, but found himself at a loss. You can't tell the truth that a woman thinks of her deceased wife when she sees her, and if that's the case, it's strange that she isn't considered a hooligan in this wilderness.

"It's okay, you don't have to explain. If you are really in a hurry, just leave, if you are not in such a hurry, stay and have breakfast, and you will not waste much time. ”

The woman interrupted Eren and gave him the freedom to choose.

"Miss..."

The white-robed old man seemed to want to persuade the girl, but the girl's delicate body had already entered the house.

"Okay, then bother. ”

Speaking of which, Alan was embarrassed to leave, otherwise it would be too rude to his savior, he followed the old man into the wooden house, although the old man in the white robe was still full of vigilance against him, but he did not stop it.

"You're the master here?"

After entering the house, Allen's eyes did not dare to look at the woman, so he could only look at the wooden house and ask casually.

"It's not. Can't you see that it's been a long time since there's been a human habitation?"

Without the girl to speak, the old man had already denied it for her.

"So why are you here?"

Alan had known for a long time that the woman could not be the owner of the hunter's hut, and what he was really curious about was why this pair, young and old, who had an obvious master-servant relationship, appeared in the wilderness.

"I took my young lady to the mountains yesterday to play, but unfortunately it happened to be raining heavily and there was nowhere to hide, so I happened to see this little cabin, so I took refuge here. ”

The white-robed old man hesitated and said.

"I see. ”

The old man in the white robe obviously doesn't make up lies, Alan can find many loopholes without thinking deeply, it has already begun to rain the night before the rain, who will choose to travel on a rainy day? And look at that woman is also a lady, even if she chooses to come out at such a time, it is impossible to only take the old man with an entourage, as for hiding from the rain here, it is even more nonsense, is it that everyone shows off without a carriage to accompany them, is it all on foot? Therefore, although Alan did not expose the old man's lies, it can be basically concluded that this old and young man must have other hidden motives when they appear here, and there are some ulteriors, although Alan has a certain curiosity about the reason, but he can't even care about his own safety now, and he doesn't want to get involved in other people's affairs.

"Young man, what's your name and why are you here?"

"My name is Alan Levins, and I am a merchant from the north, and I came to Lua City to do business, but I was unlucky, and the business did not work out, but I was found by the horse bandits first, and they attacked my caravan, and in the panic I fled with my companions, and I was hit by an arrow in the shoulder, and fell into a river, and was swept near by the river, and when I crawled out of the river, I walked for a while and suffered an arrow wound, and I happened to meet you when I was about to fall unconscious. Without you, I might have become food for the beasts. ”

Compared with the old man, Allen's lie can be described as perfectly compiled, the content is true and false, and most of it is true, even if there are scheming people, it is difficult to tell the difference, let alone the old and the young who seem to be not deeply involved in the world.

"Bandits, where did you meet them, not far from here?"

As soon as the white-robed old man heard the word horse bandit, not only did he not have any doubts, but a nervous look appeared on his face.

"I was the horse bandit I encountered the night before, and I was already dizzy after escaping all the way, and I had no way of knowing where I was, and I had no way of telling if the horse bandit was still nearby. ”

Alan can't say that there are no horse bandits near Lua City at all now, and the so-called horse bandits are pretending to be themselves, so they can only be vague.

"Miss, judging from what happened to Mr. Levins, there are horse bandits going on nearby, we had better get out of here as soon as possible, and it is best to be able to return to our home in Lua City, so that the old slave can be at ease." ”

The old man looked at the girl and said worriedly.

"Nande, don't be nervous, even if they encounter horse bandits, they may not hurt us innocent people. ”

The girl did not panic like the old man, but said calmly.

"Miss... Alas!"

The old man wanted to say something, but after glancing at Allen, he finally sighed, but after all, he didn't say it.
