Chapter 7: Confession, Gratitude, and New Beginnings
After taking care of the wound and wrapping it in a thick three-layer blanket, a person like Lu who was afraid of the cold put his blue-and-white cotton cloak under him. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
Both of them overestimated the cold winds of the night, which they could not resist even after they became warrior monks and demon hunters.
The castle is a mess of rocks, ghoul droppings, and even a lot of human bones, but now is not the time to dig into secrets.
There is no roast suckling pig as the two expected, and even if there is, there is no tool to make it. The two of them took out the bacon that they had bought before, put it in the saddle bag, and the wrapped lard, and then took out a tattered iron pot from the ruinsβthere was nothing dirty, and it should still work for washing, and Ralph had no problem walking, so they went with Xana to find the materials to make a fire.
As a result, half an hour later, Xia Na came back with a bunch of wet weeds and wood, Lu couldn't help but roll her eyes, took out the fuel, poured it on the wet plants she found, and prepared to make a fire, the moisture at the door was very heavy, probably because of the waterfall near the castle, plus the castle is located on a snowy mountain.
In other words, what kind of strange idea did this come up with the idea of building the castle on the mountain, using local materials, or using magic? Although it is hidden enough, looking at the interior of the castle, it must have been caused by the invasion and destruction of the enemy.
"Scared, trembling. "Ralph and Lu had to throw away the leather armor because the leather armor on their bodies was completely scrapped, but fortunately, Lu still had some spare leather and shirts, but he could make some ordinary leather armor, after all, he was a professional leather maker.
Xia Na on the side is responsible for taking care of the disabled, and looking at Xia Na's serious, caring and sincere eyes, Ralph and Lu are quite entangled.
"We're going to have bad news for you. Ralph's expression was a little embarrassed, and Lu was also a little helpless and embarrassed.
"Your village... Wiped out, by the Nether Dog. β
"Ding Ling. β
Xana was about to take a sip of the hot soup when she was overwhelmed by the bad news.
"So... Mom, Dad, Brother and Uncle Wang next door..."
The silence of Ralph and Lu made the whole scene even more silent, and the atmosphere was solemn.
Xana glanced at Ralph and Lu, thought about it carefully, and then said in a very sincere and grateful tone, "You don't have to blame yourself, Uncle Ralph and Uncle Lu. β
Huh?
"I don't blame you, and I don't have a right to blame you. Xana's tone fell, "I know I'm a burden... I'm all over the place, and I'm not pretty. β
No, no, no, in fact, you clean up, wipe the mud off your face, and put on clean clothes, it's still quite cute and beautiful little girl.
"Even so, you took me in, and gave me food, didn't beat me, scolded me, and treated me better than my parents treated me. β
Tsk tsk, the girls nowadays don't have any sense of precaution, maybe we're human traffickers? Maybe we're perverts? Also, we just saved you because of the mission, which is the most important reason - none of us have ever seen such a long mission with such a long hidden line.
"You are a good person, and I will repay you, I swear. β
"A girl's dream: Hearing the news of the death of her parents and brother did not depress the girl... The power called care and love has been since ancient times..."
"Stage 2 begins, the growth of a young girl. β
, the two 'uncles' who received the good guy card looked at Xia Na with a constipated look on her face.
Oh my God, girl, you're going to heaven!
The two looked at each other in confusion, what is the origin of Xia Na? No! Just a poor rural girl!
Ralph shook his head in confusion, and then beckoned Xana to drink soup and eat some dry food by the way.
After eating, the blood-stained body was slimy and uncomfortable, and Ralph boiled some hot water and asked Xana to wipe their backs for the two of them, and then changed into clean shirts. Shana's slightly shy eyes made Ralph and Lu roll their eyes - it turned out to be a girl who was quite precocious and had a good IQ and EQ development.
That night, Xana slept with Lu, and his thick quilt cloak as a mattress was naturally better than Ralph, who slept against a stone.
When she was hugged by Lu, Xia Na's body was slightly nervous, and Lu said depressedly: "It's too late to be nervous when your body grows to the point where I'm interested enough." β
Xana's body is very thin and cold, and she was still shivering when she drank the soup before, so what is there to be shy about wearing clothes.
The three of them slept soundly - this was probably the most comfortable sleep Xana had ever slept in, Lu's fiery body temperature, soft quilted mattress, plus thick capes and pillows.
This sense of security and comfort is not comparable to hiding in a leaky room and sleeping with a bunch of stinky imps.
For a 12-year-old girl, even if she is a little precocious, it is difficult to feel unforgettable sadness through others relaying the destruction of the village.
The biggest sadness is probably that her parents don't want her anymore, she is no longer needed, and the greatest joy is that someone is willing to accept her and treat her well.
The first rays of sunlight in the morning did not wake up Xana, but it woke up Ralph, who was more sensitive to light, and then Lu also woke up.
The two of them began to prepare breakfast lightly, then examined the wounds, and moved their limbs by the way to make sure that there were no hidden wounds, otherwise they would have to hurry to the town to find a priest or a holy knight for treatment.
Shirts and leather pants, the two packed their weapons and began to clean up yesterday's trophies.
Ghouls are strange creatures that become shriveled and withered upon death.
"Claws, and bones..."Ralph frowned as Lu began to tear at the skin of these ghouls, "These crumpled skins work?"
"The crumpled skin is useless, of course, but..."
The green true qi spread over these wrinkles, and soon, a complete and full skin appeared on Lu's hand.
"Get the material - the whole flawed ghoul skin. β
The dark red skin is very flexible, and if it weren't for the corpse-eating creature sword oil, I'm afraid the previous battle wouldn't have gone so well.
"These places are going to be dug up, right?" asked Ralph, pointing to the place where his silver sword had pierced, which was charred and black.
Lu nodded and said, "It's good to cut it off, anyway, the incision is small, and it's not a big problem." β
took out the leather scissors and began to trim the leather, and it didn't take long for Lu to get a message:
"Obtain the material - delicate and plump monster leather (partial), which is an essential material for advanced leather armor. β
Seeing this, Ralph and Lu's eyes couldn't help but flash with a hint of joy.
It seems that the time has come for shotguns to change cannons.
