Chapter 154: The Subhuman Village
Closed.
Forest of the Northern Fairies.
Goddess Emilia Square.
Everyone stood in front of the square, looking at the announcements posted on the square.
After Liuxi learned the news of Meiyi and Serena's marriage, he locked himself in the house and refused to go out. After returning home from the Southern Fairy Forest to visit relatives, Liuluo dragged her out and took her to the Goddess Square to breathe.
Liuluo saw so many people crowded there to read the announcement, and he was a little curious, so he pulled Liuxi and squeezed over to take a look-it was actually an announcement directly issued by the royal family.
Liuluo and Liuxi looked at each other and were stunned.
"Viscount Mei Yi, a former student of the Flower Spirit Academy, a lecturer of the True Spirit Academy, a princess tutor, and the great lord of Sombra City, launched a forbidden spirit technique given by the gods in the Tianlu Mountains three months ago to save the United Kingdom of the Three Clans, destroyed nearly a hundred demonic beasts, and disappeared in the northern land, and there is no trace of them so far. The kingdom will not give up the search effort. β
"The truth of the tragedy in Sanshan County has been ascertained, the Lord of Thorn Ridge is the illegitimate son of Philington, the Minister of Noble Affairs and Justice of the Kingdom, and he once staged a coup d'Γ©tat last year in conjunction with the Southern Fairy Forest and the Great Lord of Giant Wood City and Sombra City.
"Fillington instigated a coup d'Γ©tat in the city of True Spirits, detained the king and important ministers of the kingdom, falsely passed on the king's orders, formed an illegal court, framed Viscount Meiyi, and used force to threaten to split the church.
"Miss Kira, the daughter of the Great Lord of the Humans of the Land of the Winds, and Miss Serena, the daughter of the Duke's Mansion of Flower Spirit, have voluntarily married Viscount Meiyi. The royal family recognized the marriage contract, recognized Meiyi's inheritance rights to the Great Lord of the Land of the Wind and the Great Lord of the Flower Spirit, and will fulfill its promise that after Viscount Meiyi returns to the kingdom, the queen will officiate at the wedding for him in the palace. β
"Viscount Mei Yi is an outstanding student of the Flower Spirit Academy, a highly regarded lecturer of the True Spirit Academy, a trusted brother of Her Royal Highness the Princess, the most popular lord of the kingdom, and a faithful defender of the Goddess's teachings. Please pray to the Goddess that he will return to the kingdom as soon as possible, and return to his beloved family, friends, and teachers......"
Liuxi's whole person was stupid.
Meiyi's brother has disappeared?
The stench that lingered throughout the Northern Demon Forest that day and the roar that resounded through the sky were Warcraft's?
Why
I don't know anything
Liuluo took the tearful Liuxi into his arms and whispered, "Liuxi, you don't like the wrong person." Alright, alright, don't cry, the Kingdom Army is searching the North. Don't think about it, since you are a person favored by the gods, it won't be so easy to ...... Something's going on. β
Liuxi gently pushed Liuluo away, looked into her eyes, shook his head, and said, "Sister, I won't rely on you anymore, and I won't rely on others anymore, I have to rely on my own strength to get him back." β
Liuluo took her into his arms again and whispered, "Then you don't have to push me away, I'm not a mother." I will always be on your side, Flowing Tide. However, first practice water spirit with me, I can't watch you go to the north to die. β
* * *
Mei Yi woke up.
I had a splitting headache and didn't have a place in my body that could move, except for my eyeballs.
It took a long time for the blurry scene to become clear: a simple wooden hut with some grain, fruits, and potted flowers hanging from the roof.
He wanted to brace himself, but he couldn't. After closing his eyes and thinking about it for a while, he remembered his name and what had happened before, and tears flowed down his face.
Kira, Serena......
Where is this?
Looks like it's a village in the Elven Kingdom.
Wrong!
This is no longer the kingdom of the elves.
There was corn hanging on the roof, not bananas, and there was no such crop as corn in the Elven Kingdom!
He remembered very well that he wanted to grow corn in Sombra City, but Walter, the Minister of Farmland and Water Resources, said that he had never heard of such a thing.
Suddenly, a little girl appeared in front of her and said in surprise: "Brother, you are awake!" Why did you shed tears? It's so ugly for a boy to cry. β
Mei Yi looked at the little girl in front of her with a delicate face, round eyes, and long burgundy hair, and her eyes quickly focused on her furry white ears and tail hanging behind her, and blurted out: "Sub-human race? β
The little girl nodded happily: "Mmmm, I'm a subhuman." My ears and tail are somewhat similar to those of a fox. The people in the village call me Sister Fox, and my name is Betty. Am I talking a little too much? I'm sorry, I'm so happy. I made a wish to the goddess to have a brother, and you appeared, and Betty was so happy. β
After saying that, Betty ran out of the house humming a song, and then ran in again, took out a cold towel and wiped Meiyi's face, Meiyi suddenly felt a lot more comfortable.
Meiyi saw that Betty was about to speak again, and hurriedly said, "Betty, let me speak first, okay?" β
Betty lifted the black coarse cloth skirt, knelt beside Mei Yi, and said happily, "Well, brother, excuse me." Betty also has a lot of questions for her brother. β
"Betty, have you heard of elves?"
Betty shook her head like a rattle, "No." What is it, something that can be eaten? β
Mei Yi's heart sank.
He thought for a moment and asked, "By the way, what is the name of your goddess?" Emilia? β
Betty looked at Mei Yi with some confusion, shook her head and said, "No." A goddess is a goddess and has no name. Emilia ...... It's a pretty nice name. β
Mei Yi was in a hurry, and her voice suddenly raised: "Then when you saw me, what did you look like?" Did anything happen? Did I say anything? β
Betty said with some trepidation: "Brother, don't talk so loudly, I'm afraid." On that day, I made a wish to the goddess and asked her to give me a brother. Suddenly there was a knock on the door, and when I went out, I found you lying on my doorstep, screaming 'Sister Mary'. β
Mei Yi let out a long sigh and said, "Betty, is there a mirror?" Can you show it to me? β
When Mei Yi saw her two intact eyes and the never-before-seen clothes on her body in the mirror, she suddenly couldn't stop crying.
What is this?
Everything before was just a dream?
The fetters established are just a bamboo basket for water?
Am I in another world or in a dream?
It must have been a dream, just like everything that happened in the Elven Kingdom.
The only thing that can be confirmed is that the self on the World Island is the real self.
Betty didn't say anything, didn't ask any questions, just quietly wiped his tears, and waited until Meiyi calmed down before asking with concern: "Brother, do you feel better?" β
Mei Yi nodded weakly.
He no longer had the strength to weave a dream for himself.
"Brother, is it okay to eat corn paste at night?"
Mei Yi casually agreed.
Betty hummed happily, and soon the smell of corn paste was heard in the room.
In the dim candlelight, Meiyi put down the wooden spoon in her hand and said to Betty, "Miss Betty, thank you for taking care of you during this time. My name is Mei Yi. What can I do for you? β
Betty said happily, "I'm not a young lady, just call me Betty." My brother's name is also very nice. My brother doesn't need to do anything, Betty can do anything, my brother just needs to be with me. Seeing that others have older brothers, Betty is very envious. β
Mei Yi looked at the lovely Betty and said, "Betty, I may not be a good brother." But it is still possible to accompany you for the time being. β
Betty happily said, "That's enough." β
During her evening break, Mei Yi looked at the stars in the night sky through the window and listened to Betty tell the story of the world. This world is a subhuman kingdom, and the village where Betty lives is outside the city, and it is very closed off from farming, with only the occasional passing merchant.
Betty's parents were also long gone, and she had an older sister who worked as a swordsman in the royal city. My sister hasn't been home in years. Her dream is to go to Wangcheng and find her sister when she grows up.
Mei Yi looked at a short sword and a long sword hanging on the wall, and said, "Betty, is that one left by your sister?" β
Betty shook her head and said, "That's mine." Sometimes, some small beasts will come and destroy the crops in the fields, and the people in the village will take up arms and drive the little beasts away. One day, Betty will also become a powerful swordsman. β
Mei Yi was surprised: "Betty, can you use a sword?" β
Betty pulled the quilt and said proudly, "Well, Betty is very good, my sister taught me." Brother, you don't have to worry about it at all, Betty will definitely protect you if you encounter danger. β
Mei Yi finally showed her first smile when she came to this dream (in another world), "Then please, Betty." What can I do for you? β
Betty shook her head and said, "Brother, Betty said, you don't have to do anything, just accompany Betty." For the first time, Betty felt that the night was not scary at all. In the past, when it was dark or thundering, Betty would not dare to sleep. β
Mei Yi didn't speak again, and he heard Betty's sweet breathing.
He didn't feel sleepy at all. After eating something and talking to Betty for a while, his mind was slowly getting up and running. According to Betty, he slept in a coma at her house for a week, which was completely inconsistent with the timeline of the Elven Kingdom.
Coupled with the matter of eyes, he had confirmed that the elven kingdom was just a dream.
It's just an unusually long, richly detailed, happy and painful dream.
He gently pushed the door open, walked out of the cabin, leaned against the railing of the corridor, and looked at the moonlit farmland, feeling that his soul was completely empty.
Early the next morning.
A high-pitched crying voice sounded in the room: "Huh? My brother is gone? β
Then there was a rush of footsteps, and the door of the cabin was almost pulled down by Betty. When she saw Mei Yi sweating in the field, she finally put her mind at ease, held on to the railing, and smiled happily.
She hastily groomed herself, tied up her red hair, put on her little flower hat, picked up her little hoe, and rushed happily into the field.
Mei Yi said very little, and sometimes, she didn't say a word for a day, just thinking about things there, or being in a daze.
However, Betty didn't care at all.
Because, she has a lot of words.
