40 The light before dawn
When I opened my eyes, there were many faces in front of me, old people, children, teenagers, adult men, and women, all of whom looked at me with concern. Quincy subconsciously went to find Lucina's face, and her blurred eyes saw that she was very close, and she was twisting a towel, and after wringing it dry, she put it on her forehead, which was cold and comfortable.
Finding him awake, Lucina looked surprised and tentatively called, "Hi." β
"Hi. Quincy replied weakly, and found a burning pain behind her chest, and her eyes closed weakly, and she was about to sink into the darkness.
"Ahh
"Huh, won't you? I'll see. The voice of the other teenager, the pronunciation of Aris's lingua franca was not marked by anyone, and it sounded very strange.
"You guys, don't touch him, let him sleep!" Quincy recognized, it was Lucina's voice.
There was another voice, which Quincy also recognized, it was the chauffeur, and he said: "A hundred catties must be smashed on it, plus the momentum of the carriage, of course it will not be good." β
It was the young man's voice with a strange voice: "Didn't you let the priest see it? Could it be that as I thought, they can treat flesh wounds, but there are some miscellaneous diseases for more serious internal injuries and fractures, such as Uncle Carlo's arm? Who knows if different treatments will happen to the same person. β
With a snapping sound, Lucina scolded in a gentle voice: "I'm going to die!
The boy snorted and said no more.
Then there were many people talking, noisy, all about him, all worried about him, and Lucina's voice was clearly discernible in it. I don't know how. Quincy felt safe and relaxed in such a noisy environment, and fell asleep again.
When I woke up again, my back pain was much better, and I opened my eyes slightly and noticed that it was dark outside the window, and it turned out to be late at night. Quincy moved slightly. I want to get up.
"Don't move!" a palm pressed to his chest, and Lucina's face appeared in front of him, "The back is badly injured, and the ribs are broken! β
Quincy looked at the face in a daze, it was still the same face as yesterday, there was no trace of half of the makeup, but it was not as pale as snow yesterday, but there was a light pink on the plump cheeks, and she was smiling at him.
looked at that face and realized that the woman's palm in front of him was against her ** skin. Without warning, Quincy's heart suddenly began beating desperately. The faster I jumped, the more crackling and chaotic sounded.
Quincy froze.
What's going on?
Subconsciously don't think about that hand, but find that you can't do it at all, and the feeling of being close to each other is infinitely magnified.
Quincy panicked and groaned, "Water." β
Lucina frantically poured the water and held the cup to Quincy's lips. "Come on. Drink with care. Lucina said. One hand through Quincy's armpit. Half helped him up.
A wave of Lucina's unique aura hit, and Quincy looked at Lucina and forgot to drink water.
"Drink. Lucina smiled, "Stupid to be smashed by a milk bucket?"
"Oh. Quincy answered, and then bowed her head to drink. After drinking, he suddenly blurted out, "You are so good-looking!"
Lucina chuckled, flattened Quincy, and held out her hand for Quincy to look at the wedding ring. He smiled and said, "Sir." I'm married. You're late. Moreover. of husbands. β
Quincy suddenly became angry and clucked.
Lucina was startled. Hurriedly went to give him relief.
A voice outside the door grinned, "Wake up?"
Lucina showed a crying and laughing expression and said, "Xu Zheng, how long have you been outside?"
Xu Zheng said with a smile: "Not long after, the temperature of the cold shrimp is just right. β
"Come in. Lucina said helplessly.
The door was pushed open, and a lot of people rushed in.
Quincy recognized Xu Zheng at a glance.
This young man is so special, even if he is caught in the crowd, he is still like a shining star, which makes it impossible to ignore the past. Xu Zheng jumped in front of Quincy and grinned, and a smile from the boss suddenly dazzled Quincy's eyes.
Holding a bowl in his hand, he ran up to Quincy's face with a quirky look on his face, and said with a flattering smile, "Thank you for saving Aunt Lucina!" I don't know what else can be repaid to you, so I will first honor a bowl of cold shrimp, and when my ice cream is made, I will be the first to honor you. β
Then he turned his head to look at the other two teenagers who looked exactly the same, and said, "Dapan Xiaoban, come and thank the life-saving benefactor." β
The young man in front of him was smiling like an idiot, and he really had nothing to do with the magical boy in the report, the star of the imperial capital, and the dark gold-patterned beasts. Quincy thought that he would see a young man with a wise face and an old man's expression, but he didn't know that the eyes jumped out of his eyes to be such a lively guy, completely out of touch.
Quincy looked at him, and for a moment he was completely nervous and wrong, and he didn't know how to deal with it, and he couldn't say a word. This person is really too different from the people he has seen in his life, and he has never seen anything like this.
"Don't talk, do you? That's stupid, do
It's an idiot who leaves a name, if I change it, I will definitely go to someone's house, and ask for a coin first, right?" Xu Zheng smiled with white teeth, and said: "Ah, benefactor, tell you what your name is, I will go to the statue of Maris God of War to secretly build a statue for you, so that all the people can offer it." Our family is poor, so don't count on gold coins. β
"Quincy Sedak. As soon as the words came out, Quincy's whole body was cold, and he actually said his real name! Then, to his frustration, he found that he had responded with all his attention, and the result was that he was simply making a move at the air, and the boy had not even noticed, and was continuing to talk nonsense there.
"Quincy Sedak. I won't call you Mr. Sedak. That's so unfamiliar, let's call it Uncle Quincy. Quincy, what a name, as handsome as your face. is not like that Xiao Chu, who has a dead face, and is annoyed to look at. Uncle Quincy. Wait, next time Marisland is alive, I'll find a way to get you a statue to put next to him. You think it's good to put it on his shoulder? It's high enough that I ride on it and no one else can find it. Ten thousand people worship you, that is the honor that my Banderi family benefactor should receive!"
Quincy watched in a daze as Xu Zheng crackled as if he had burst beans, and he slapped wildly as if he didn't want money, and he was frustrated to find that he was as smart and cunning as himself. But he couldn't keep up with his train of thought at all, this young man's thoughts were empty, the previous paragraph and the next paragraph did not match at all, and his thinking jumped forward. How can there be such people in this world?
"I'm going to die. Lucina slapped her lightly and severely, and scolded with a smile: "Can Maris, the god of war, also be blasphemous for you?"
Xu Zheng shrank his head and said with a smile: "It's just a small figlet." Maris will not lose a single hair. Think about it from another angle, if our Quincy statue is put up, it can be admired by all the people, and that's a good thing. Besides, how pitiful it is for Maris to stand there alone and miserable, and to have someone to accompany him, the god of war should be happy. Are you sure he's not lonely when he's standing there stupidly, or is our Quincy a good guy who is willing to chat with him and suffer. Maris should have been moved to tears. I'm going to sneak in tonight. Make a statue, engrave the name, and put it on his shoulder. As he spoke, he snickered and kept wincing at Quincy.
"You dare!"
The two of them shouted at the same time, it was Lucina and the driver of the car.
"Hehe, of course I don't dare. Xu Zheng smiled. But that smile looked in Quincy's eyes, and it was obviously a sign that he was going to let go and do it. I always feel that the subtext is: Why don't I dare?
Quincy couldn't understand Xu Zheng at all. Dark and rebellious as yourself. Nor dare to say blasphemous words. Why can this boy be so indifferent? and that tone. It doesn't seem to be disrespectful to God, but the great god is his relatives and friends. As it should be. Besides, if you don't say a word, when did you change the Quincy of their family again?
What kind of person is he?
Quincy looked at Xu Zheng blankly, and suddenly felt that this young man was like being separated by layers of fog, and he couldn't see clearly. However, what is surprising is that in the face of Xu Zheng's childish and idiotic smile, Quincy felt very much about his bold thoughts.
God knows how many years he hasn't had the urge to laugh, this young man did it as soon as he came up and messed around for a while, and he really has the ability.
But seeing that Xu Zheng was still laughing happily, he pulled the teenagers called the big class and the small class to come forward, and the smile on his face made Quincy want to laugh even more. I heard Xu Zheng say: "Come, big and small, the three of us will bow to our benefactor, and we will call him as he pleases in the future." β
As he spoke, the three teenagers bowed down together, and actually bowed down to Quincy!
How many years has no one laughed at him so sincerely?
Quincy suddenly grabbed the bowl, and something inexplicable welled up in her heart, inexplicable, uncomfortable, but unable to say a word.
Beside the three teenagers, two children came out, looked up at Quincy, and said, "Thank you for saving Aunt Lucina." Thank you!" and then presented two smiling faces that were smiling.
The driver came over, nodded calmly, and said, "Thank you." β
Finally, it was Lucina, who walked up to Quincy, smiled slightly, and said, "Thank you." Although I can't express my gratitude in a short sentence. But all I can say is, thank you. Also, I say thank you on behalf of the two children. You don't know each other, but you dare to come to your rescue. It makes me feel even more that there are really few good and bad people and many good people in this world. Not as shady as my brother Carlo said. β
On the side, Xu Zheng stretched out his mouth and whispered in Quincy's ear: "She means that you saved and strengthened her faith. Ignore her, she has always been overflowing with love. You must remember that except for our family, the next time there is such a thing, you have to save people, and you have to ask people for money. β
What is this? It's so straightforward that it doesn't beat around the bush. is completely the face of a villain, what kind of magical boy, the star of the imperial capital, and the dark gold pattern beast envoy?
Quincy was finally defeated on all fronts, and Ha laughed out loud. This smile suddenly made my whole body hurt. But Quincy just didn't want to stop.
Looking at the audience in the blink of an eye, everyone was laughing along with them, and there was a strange atmosphere in the room that Quincy had never been exposed to. It's quite weird, and it just feels very comfortable
Just relax.
Quincy laughed breathlessly, and laughed until he coughed blood. Frightened a bunch of people, they rushed up and gagged him.
I finally couldn't hold back my laughter, but I felt a terrible pain in my chest. But Xu Zheng breathed a sigh of relief when he heard it, and whispered: "I used to read history books, and the books said that there were people who died of laughter. I didn't believe it yet, but after gaining insight today, I really have. β
When Quincy heard this, she couldn't stop laughing again. Lucina Ho stood up with a thud. Raised his eyebrows: "Xu Zheng, stand on the edge for me!"
"Yes!" Xu Zheng saw that Lucina was angry, and immediately shuddered, and obediently stood against the wall, but stretched out his head to look at Quincy with concern.
Looking at Xu Zheng's sincere gaze, Quincy was confused and dodged again.
What kind of person can easily express his concern and love for others? Doesn't he know that the world is changeable, and there are many people who are dark and ugly like himself? A young man with a magical boy, a star of the imperial capital, and a beast envoy with dark gold patterns can be a naΓ―ve and imbecile person, and no one will believe it. But that big grin, can smile brightly at any time, and the face without the slightest scheming gives people this feeling. in the world. The most innocent and unadulterated smile, except for children and idiots, can only be found on Xu Zheng's face. How can there be such a person in the world? Those concerned black eyes, clear without a trace of impurities, seem to have been washed under a spring for millions of years. Washed away all uncleanness. It's so clean that you don't dare to look at it.
Then he turned to look at Lucina. This woman is also so strange, she seems to be timid and weak, but she is actually brave and stubborn, and the thick warmth in her eyes is so thick that it will gush out at any time. Why is there such a woman in this world? Why is there a man who dies, dragging a crippled brother and two sons? can't drag down her confidence in life. Under the blow of Minzhuo. Still standing upright?
A woman who doesn't understand at all and a teenager who doesn't understand at all!
Quincy looked at the two of them in a daze, listening to the crowd talking and laughing around her. Discussing how to make myself more comfortable and recover faster, before I knew it, there was a slight light outside the window, and the darkest time of the night was about to pass, and the sky was about to dawn. The dawn came in through the window, shone on Xu Zheng's face, and then jumped on Lucina's plump face.
Suddenly, Quincy felt that the smiling face of the young Xu Zheng was incredibly bright, and Lucina's shallow smiling face was so beautiful that she couldn't look at it directly, giving people a feeling that it was even brighter than the dawn!
I just don't know, can these two dawns illuminate the darkest part of my dark heart?
Quincy was suddenly full of anticipation and laughed sullenly, "Actually...... I'm here to apply for a clerk at the Plains Tavern. β
Belch?
Yes?
The conversation and laughter stopped abruptly!
Lucina burst out laughing, "Welcome, what do you mean by unique?" Oh, it's called a unique interview. Glad and kind and brave Quincy θΎΎε ε η, you passed. When you are healed, you come to work. If you don't have a place to live, stay in the wilderness. For me and my two children who are injured, we should take care of you. β
Quincy smiled and nodded, her whole body relaxed. Out of the corner of his eye, he saw Xu Zheng moving to the side of the class step by step, and then whispered beside the two of them: "Tell Aunt Lucina that it is our local people, and the medical expenses can be deducted from the remuneration." Either deduct half of it first, and confiscate the other half until the medical expenses are attached. β
"Xu Zheng!"
"Aunt Lucina, I didn't say anything!"
"Stand by the wall!"
"Yes! Why didn't the senior and junior class stand over? Obviously, they also nodded ...... just now."
"Shut up, get over here!"
"Yes, don't get angry, I'll be over right away. β
Quincy listened, and suddenly wanted to laugh again. It turns out that this dawn is really interesting!
