Chapter 45: To no avail

Life and death are always difficult to see, maybe Il should be glad that his arrival allowed him to see the old nurse for the last time, after all, it is very rare for the old nurse to live to such an age, according to the human lifespan, she has lived longer than too many people.

"Dean, can I see this old granny?"

Although the dean did not know why he wanted to see the old nurse, he nevertheless led them to a sunny room. The old nurse was lying on the bed covered with a thin quilt, and there was a little girl lying on her stomach in front of the bed, this girl must have been taking care of the old nurse at night, and then she would fall asleep on the bed tiredly.

The old nurse was awake, but she kept looking out the window at the children who were playing, and even when someone came in, she didn't bother her.

"Old granny, are you feeling better today? A magician wants to see you. ”

The old nurse turned her head slowly, and the little girl was also awakened by the dean's voice, and she saw two strangers there, and quickly got up and stepped aside. The old nurse kindly beckoned to her, signaling her not to be nervous and to come and help herself.

The little girl was obviously afraid of life, and she peeked at the two strangers as she lifted the old nurse up and put a cushion on her back.

"Dean, who is going to come to me? all the old friends I knew are dead, and I'm the only one left. The old nurse said with a smile, her breath was very short, and she began to cough incessantly after saying this whole sentence, and the little girl hurriedly rubbed her back to help her breathe.

Il walked to the bedside, he looked at the old nurse's once chubby and radiant face had only a layer of wrinkled skin, and his heart ached, and he just wanted to lie on the old nurse's lap and listen to her tell those magical stories as he did when he was a child.

"Can you go out for a while? I want to be alone with her for a while. ”

Lin pulled the dean out of the room, and the little girl consciously followed them out, leaving only Il and the old nurse in the room, and the old nurse did not show any strange or surprised expression.

"Child, you've grown up. ”

"You, do you know who I am?" Yir looked at the old nurse with a smile on her face all the year round in surprise, it can't be, after so many years and I still wear a mask, the old nurse must have admitted that she was mistaken.

"Il, isn't it you? I only know you for the pale blonde hair. ”

Il took off his mask to reveal his true appearance, he couldn't imagine that the old nurse still remembered him, but what he didn't know was that the characteristics of every child in the orphanage could be remembered by the old nurse.

"It's me, old granny, I'm sorry, I haven't come back to visit you for so many years......"

The old nurse beckoned him to come closer, and she touched Il's head as she did when she was a child. Ilr sat on the chair next to the bed and held the old nurse's dry hand, and his heart was full of emotion.

"Child, I've heard all about you, there is no way to explain good and evil, right and wrong, and it is the luckiest thing for you to be healthy and rich now. The old lady looked at the sad face kindly, she knew that Il was locked up by the church, and that the fact that he was walking around with the mask at this moment showed that he had always held a grudge against what had happened.

She wanted to enlighten this child, after all, the strength of the church is so strong, how can he deal with it alone?

But what Il wants to do is not only to take revenge on the church, he wants to make it so that there is no more believer in God in this world! He wants to completely change people's impression and memory of God!

"Old granny, you don't have to worry about me, but you have to pay more attention to your body, are the living conditions here too bad?

"I've lived here for decades, I've had feelings, and I'm content to see the happy smiling faces of my children every day, Il, I don't care what thoughts and plans you have in mind, but you must not let yourself be hurt. The old grandmother shook her head, she knew that she could not convince this stubborn child, so she could only continue to tell him not to hurt herself.

Yier saw that the old nurse looked at him worriedly, and quickly stopped mentioning this matter, the old nurse was a little tired, so he helped her lie down and rest.

The people who should have been seen have already been seen, and Il's own self really shouldn't disturb their normal life anymore. He put on his mask again, bowed deeply to the old nurse, and then turned to leave, the old nurse sighed softly as she watched him leave the back of iade.

Both Lynn and Dean Bald were waiting for him outside the door, and Il gently closed the door and pulled Lynn to say goodbye to the dean.

"Dean, thank you for your cooperation today, that money should be enough for you for a long time, you can write to His Royal Highness Alan if you have any difficulties here in the future, he will help you, by the way, buy more food for the old nurse to make up for it, we are leaving." ”

Under the director's narration, Il and Rin left the orphanage and rode east in a carriage to find the next person who could bring them information.

After a bumpy ride, they finally came across a small village an hour later, and after parking the carriage at the door of the village, Yir and Lynn searched for the residence of the missing adopted son's biological parents at the address the dean had said.

The door of the wooden house was closed, and even the windows were blocked by wooden boards, and an ominous premonition arose in Il's heart, could it be that something had happened to this family?

Bang bang bang!

"Are you looking for someone?"

The peasant woman passing by looked at Il and Lynn strangely, knowing that this village usually had few outsiders except for the soldiers who collected taxes and the knights of the church. And these two men are so well dressed that they look like rich people, what are they doing in our poor village? besides, they are knocking on the door......

"Hello, may I ask the farmer who lives here?" asked the peasant woman politely.

"What are you asking for? Don't you know that this family has been dead for years, and if you are the creditor of his family, then your debt will not be returned. ”

"How did they die?" Lynn asked her in surprise.

"If you die of illness, how can you die, the family has no money and can't afford to hire a doctor when you get sick, so you can only wait to die. After saying that, the peasant woman left to go about her own business, after all, she had to do a lot of farm work every day to make ends meet, and the children in the family were still too young to share the household chores for the adults.

Yi'er and Lin looked at each other helplessly when they heard the news, but they could only return to the carriage tiredly, after all, after driving for such a long time, they finally found the home of their adopted son's biological parents, but it turned out to be a trip in vain.

"Yier, you say this is too strange, how can this family die of illness? and if you are sick, you shouldn't be sick together, right?"

Il was thinking about this too, but now that the couple had been dead for so many years, even if they had this question, it would not be answered. But...... It's not like there's nothing to be done.

"Since the villagers say they died of illness, then their bodies should not have been burned, maybe we can go to the cemetery. ”

Lynn frowned when she heard Il say this, she was not interested in the corpses of dead people, and she got goosebumps all over her body just thinking about it.

"Il? Do you mean to dig up graves in the graveyard? Even if you do it, the corpse will be rotten after so many years, right?"

Because the poor did not have the money to buy coffins, their bodies were buried directly in the soil after they died, which accelerated the decay of the flesh. However, Il is familiar with digging graves, and half a year ago he stole many corpses from the village cemetery in order to serve as a stand-in for people escaping from prison.

However, stealing corpses is not a serious business after all, and it is difficult to do it during the day, so Il decided to dig up the corpses of this family tonight.

"It's okay, let's try first, if it doesn't work we'll find another way. ”

They inquired about the couple in the village, and in the middle of the night they walked in the direction the villagers had told them to go to the cemetery. Walking on the road, Lin nervously grabbed Yir's hand, she was most afraid of ghosts, since she was a child, she did not dare to listen to those strange rumors and terrifying stories.
