Chapter 48: Recuperation
Lu Lie slowly woke up from his coma, and when he opened his eyes, he was greeted by a ceiling made of wood, a quilt covering his body, and a bonfire lit next to the bed.
"Wake up, Lord Tree God has woken up!" Two maids next to them who were wringing towels in the washbasin came over, originally wanting to rub Lu Lie's face again, but when they found that Lu Lie had opened his eyes, they all shouted in surprise. A maid rushed out to look for someone, and it didn't take long for the chaotic footsteps of countless people to be heard in the corridor outside.
Since Lu Lie returned to Zhushi Town, he was discovered by these villagers. These foolish people who believe in the giant tree love the house and Wu, and their worship of Lu Lie has reached a level that is almost no different from the giant tree. They honored Lu Lie as the Lord of Redemption, and believed that if Lu Lie could survive from the giant tree, he must have the status of a god.
"Here it is...... Where?"
Lu Lie felt that he was unusually weak and powerless, but there was a faint sense of peace in the weakness. These two diametrically contradictory feelings juxtaposed so harmoniously to him that they did not seem abrupt at all...... It's as if a person who has been seriously ill for a long time has finally gotten rid of his illness and returned to a normal life. Although the bones of the body have not recovered at this time, the patient will feel comfortable all over.
Lu Lie didn't understand what was in front of him and what happened when he was unconscious. He tried to remember what had happened before he fell unconscious, but found that there was a large blank in his memory, an empty void that swallowed everything, and no matter how hard he tried to remember, it was impossible to extract a single meaningful thing from it.
"Do you mean...... Here's a new delusion?"
After all, in the endless tunnel, in the dream of Qiqi, Lu Lie once returned to his hometown, and he also regarded those places as the real world. But when I woke up from the dream, it was only proven to be a vain.
Taking advantage of the panic of the maids around him, he lay on the bed, barely twisted his head, and looked in all directions. He found that the little attic where he lay was not a place for a man like himself to stay, full of dragon and phoenix marks, tall furniture, and a faint warmth and stove......
Soon, with the support of the maids, several official masters wearing official uniforms and having a big belly walked in.
Several maids behind him carefully put pillows on Lu Lie's head, so that he could easily meet the eyes of the official master. Several officials arched their hands to him, with a flattering smile on their faces: "Lord Tree God, is it still comfortable to live here?" If there is any need, even if it is proposed, Xue will definitely do it." ”
Lu Lie just widened his eyes, didn't say a word, and looked at them quietly.
It's not that he can't speak, but he suddenly appeared in this place, and he lost his memory for a short time, and now Lu Lie is in a very bad mood, very bad. He needs to be alone and doesn't want to talk to anyone.
Especially these guys who look like pigs' heads and laugh more like pigs' heads.
If he could, he would rather throw himself out into the street than stay in this conservatory and share a space with these pigs.
Seeing that Lu Lie didn't respond for a long time, the smiles on the faces of those officials slowly became a little embarrassed. A fat man beside him who squinted his eyes and grinned, like a Buddha, also licked his face and said with a smile: "If the Tree God-sama has just come down from the tree and feels unwell, then we will retire first." Let's visit again at another time. ”
Lu Lie simply closed his eyes, not bothering to say a word to the other party at all.
The expressions on the faces of several officials were a little embarrassed. But in the face of this only human who had come down from the tree for hundreds of years, they naturally did not dare to show any disrespect, but just waved their hands and left the small room with their servants.
Lu Lie listened to these chaotic footsteps and slowly walked away. He slowly opened his eyes, and there was a hint of confusion in his eyes.
......
Lu Lie lay on the bed in the warm pavilion for more than a month. After this month, although my body still looks like a vegetative state, even if I raise my hand slightly, I feel extremely sore all over my body. But eating, drinking, washing and washing have the maids around him take care of him meticulously, and it is not bad. On the contrary, Lu Lie, who has been accustomed to wandering in the north and south of the river since he was a child, has experienced such a long life and death adventure on the giant tree, not to mention eating and drinking enough when he is on the giant tree, he even sleeps with one eye closed and one eye open. Compared to the previous life, it is almost heaven now.
After so many days of recuperation, Lu Lie gradually remembered some things on the giant tree.
"Su Wen ......"
"Yang Wei ......"
"Cannibal ......"
"Three-headed ......"
"Little Dream ......"
"Rose Tiger ......"
"Purple Demon ......"
These faces from these memories slowly emerged in Lu Lie's mind. Every time he remembered a name, he slowly squirmed his lips, and asked the maids around him to write down the names in a voice as soft as a mosquito. Although he didn't know the point of doing so, the maids didn't know what the only person who had come down from the tree for hundreds of years had asked them to write down the names of unknown meaning as soon as they could speak. But they did it anyway.
Because everyone knows that this young man must have had an unusual past.
Lu Lie closed his eyes.
There was a very important name that lingered in the depths of his memory, but he couldn't remember it anyway.
A blurry face, a blurry voice, and a vague memory......
Whenever Lu Lie felt that he was about to see the face in his memory, his brain would ache faintly, like a sharp and thin needle, slowly piercing into his mind. It hurt maddeningly, and Lu Lie covered his head tightly. In this way, whenever the truth was about to surface, he couldn't think about it anyway.
Who is it, and who is that person?
Someone deliberately sealed a part of his memories on the giant tree to prevent himself from delving into it. There was a very important person in his memory, but he couldn't remember. Even whenever he had the thought of "wanting to remember this man", the terrible curse would prevent him from continuing to delve in.
The only thing Lu Lie could know was that the person who was very important to him was connected to an ocean of blue like a sea of blood.
......
Half a year later, Lu Lie has recuperated and can get out of bed.
