Chapter 1067: The Man Who Chases Miracles
......
"Oh my God, it's really you!"
Aoi was carrying a heavy bag of golden dragons, and when he walked down from the viewing platform, an extremely familiar voice came to his ears.
She turned her head to look at it, and couldn't help but raise the corners of her mouth, "Yo, Tiger Claw!"
"Hahaha, long time no see, Aoi!" the big man hugged her and patted her on the back hard, "When Your Majesty announced your name, I thought it was the same name." I was amazed that you were able to beat the Chief Knight and Dawn Dawn......! How do you feel fat?"
Aoi pushed him away with a smile and punched him in the chest in response, "you, it's better than before, except for skin and bones, is this called normal!"
"No, I mean it's better to be fat," Tigerpaw whistled, "at least it looks more like a woman." He looked Aoi up and down, "But seriously, your appearance has changed a little too much...... I wasn't sure when I was on stage. β
"Is there one?" she shrugged, "and my hair has grown a little longer, so I have eaten a little more." Haven't you gotten a lot stronger?"
"I've practiced this every day on the construction site!" the latter raised his arm triumphantly.
"Whew...... Whoosh...... Aoi, wait for me," Xiao struggled out of the crowd, panting, "Hey, isn't this a tiger's claw!"
"You see, this guy has barely changed, he's still so skinny," Tigerpaw gave him a warm hug as well, "Don't tell me you've been all the way here." β
"Ahem, ahem...... Tap," Xiao smiled bitterly, "I came here in the caravan owner's carriage." If it weren't for Sister Aoi insisting that I accompany me, I wouldn't want to go on such a trip. β
"You're a businessman?"
"It's just a chore. He rubbed the back of his head in embarrassment.
"Doesn't this guy know a few words?" Aoi pouted, "The elementary education class is also a little faster than others, and after passing the examination, he was taken by a chamber of commerce, and he sat in the room every day and dealt with the account book, and his life was comfortable." β
"I see. It's a good thing you're here, otherwise how could we have come together so coincidentally?" Tiger Paw laughed, "Let's go to the Neverwinter Zone for a good night's drink, and we should celebrate for Aoi!"
"But you can, but ......" Xiao looked left and right, "What about Snake Fang?"
Aoi felt her heart skip a beat.
In fact, she wanted to ask this question for a long time, but she didn't want to be too eager, and at this time, she also pretended to look at Tiger Claw as if nothing happened, "It can't be that he was left too far behind by you, and he will go back first, right?"
"He...... A man ran to the Hidden Forest to build a railway. "Although the pay is good, but if you are not careful, you will lose your life, what's the point of earning more? I used to live in the sewers, and now I am not satisfied with the decent housing, and I have to pursue a two-room house, and I sometimes really can't understand what he is thinking." β
Because it can provide a warm and comfortable place for the family, rather than a simple shelter from the wind and rain, Aoi thought a little sourly, "Of course, it's for the sake of blank paper." β
"Blank paper?" Tiger Claw said inexplicably.
"Hey, you won't even forget the blank slate," Xiao stabbed him, "She's our companion." β
"I know, but what does this have to do with her?" Tigerpaw said confusedly, "White Paper is now a member of the League of Witches and lives in the Castle District, and doesn't need us to provide a house." And the snake tooth guy too, obviously saw the blank paper several times, but didn't dare to go up to say hello, and pulled me to the side, but she didn't know that we were here. β
"What?" Aoi couldn't help but be stunned, "It's been almost two years, and you haven't met with the blank paper?"
Tigerpaw shook his head helplessly.
"Poofβha," Aoi grinned, "and he's such a fool!" For some reason, she suddenly felt a lot lighter in her heart, and even her steps became brisk.
"Sister Aoi, be quiet," Xiao said hurriedly, "the people around us are watching us." β
Aoi didn't care at all, but waved at the crowd of people who were traveling with him, in exchange for a good-natured laughter.
People have undoubtedly regarded her as Miss Champion.
"It's good to be famous," Tigerpaw lamented...... "Two years ago, I could never have imagined that there would be such a day. β
"Compared to fame, the hundred golden dragons are the point," Xiao Ze had a different opinion, "If it is used for business, the income is definitely higher than that of work, even if you don't know anything, you can find a family to invest together, in case you can become bigger, it is basically lying down and collecting moneyββ"
"No, I'm going to buy a house. Aoi interrupted, "In the border area." β
"Huh?" Xiao said stunned, "But this is obviously a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity! If you start from scratch, do you know how long it will take to save a hundred golden dragons!"
"I know, but I've decided," Aoi said without hesitation.
"And what about your job?"
"So I'm going to buy a bike too," she said, "and you can see how easy that thing is to ride." If you have a bike, you should be ...... a day No, I can rush back to Changge District from here in one morning. And there are a lot of letters that come from both sides, so maybe I can make more money. β
"You ......" Xiao looked at her for a long time, and finally sighed as if surrendering, "Whatever you want, I never convinced you anyway." β
Aoi smiled slightly, but her mind flew back to two years ago.
That day of parting.
The four of them stood on the dock, and she had asked Snakefang, "Will you ever come back?" to Serpentfang, but never got an answer.
At that time, she felt that she might never see each other again in this life.
The distance between the border town and the Changge Fortress is so far away, even if it merges into one city, in her eyes, it is also the end of the world.
You must know that the farthest place they have ever been to is only a garbage dump outside Changge City.
The frontier city is a place that is out of reach in consciousness.
It wasn't until she was tempted by the bounty of this sports meeting that Aoi set foot on the Kingdom Road for the first time. In order to cheer herself up, she also forcibly pulled Xiao.
Unexpectedly, the distance between the two places refreshed her imagination - compared to winning the first place herself, Aoi was more surprised that it turned out that she and Snake Fang were not so far away. There were no winding mountain roads or potholes, a straight black stone road connected the two places, and for the first time, she felt like a city.
In that case, why did she wait for the other party to come back?
As long as you don't go over to the past, can't you?
As His Majesty the King said.
The so-called "impossible" may really be a shackle to break - who knows if it will be another miracle until you try it?
"Find a tavern, I'll give you a drink. Aoi patted the money bag and said.
"Oh!" Tiger Claw clenched his fist excitedly, "It's a pity that Snake Tooth guy is not blessed to enjoy it." β
"Remember to go to the hotel and save the money first," Xiao reminded, "It's enough to bring four or five golden dragons!"
"Got it," Aoi laughed.
She didn't know what the end result would be, but she wanted to give it a try.
She's come to love the feeling of chasing miracles.
