Year 1487.

The winter in Hualing is particularly cold.

The streets of the New Year are empty.

Only the well-armored Duke's palace army patrolled the streets and imposed martial law.

A little elf girl sneaked out of the mansion and knocked vigorously on the door of the house opposite.

A short time later, a man came up and opened the door.

As soon as the elf girl saw the black hair and black eyes of the person opposite, she was surprised and said, "You are human?" ”

The human clasped his hands, leaned against the door, and smiled, "Yes, my name is Meiyi." Let me think, are you Esther? ”

Esther exclaimed, "How do you know me?" We've never met. ”

Mei Yi said, "Are Serena and Avril alright?" ”

Esther was even more surprised, and said, "How do you know about my sister Avril?" Also, Who is Serena? ”

Mei Yi thought for a while and said, "Oh, I'm sorry, at this time she should be called Yelena, the daughter of Miss Luo Qin." ”

Esther's eyes widened: "How do you know Aunt Luoqin?" ”

Mei Yi smiled: "Anyway, I know it." ”

Esther said, "Uncle, you are so mysterious. ”

Meiyi: "...... Esther, don't call me uncle, call me by my name, okay? ”

Esther nodded and said, "Meiyi, when did you move here?" What does it do? ”

Mei Yi said: "I just moved here for less than a week, and I gambled in the True Spirit before...... Do something that doesn't have a capital to do. Esther, it's the New Year, why isn't there anyone on the road? ”

Esther said, "You just came here, I don't know. Many nobles covet my family's fiefdom, Hualing City, and are trying to jointly capture Hualing. The men of the city are either defending the city or fighting. Women didn't dare to come out. ”

Meiyi said: "Esther, you should also hurry home, the soldiers are in chaos, it will not be good if something happens." If there's something hard about the Duchess or you, come to me, okay? I don't have much power, but I can help. ”

Esther shook her head vigorously and said, "My mother said that the human race is very smart, and you must be very smart, and you will definitely be able to help." I'm going home, or my mom will talk about me again. ”

She turned around and was about to run, when she slammed into the beautiful woman standing behind her, and sat on the ground.

"Mom, when did you come?"

Little Esther rubbed her buttocks.

Lady Alicia had been watching Meiyi. She had Reisuke in her hand, and if Mei Yi dared to do anything to Aster, she was confident that she could kill this strange human in a second.

Mei Yi's eyes shrank as soon as she saw the young Lady Alicia.

Lady Alicia was a little surprised, she didn't know why the human in front of her looked at her with affection, nostalgia, and sadness.

Alicia nodded lukewarmly, and pulled Esther back to the mansion.

Upon returning home, Alicia blames Esther and orders her not to have any more contact with the human. She asked Esther what she had said to the human, and Esther said it in fifteen and ten.

The more Alicia listened, the more she felt that something was wrong.

Why does this human know so much about his home?

Could it be that what are his intentions for his own family?

She quietly asked her family general to touch the details of this human being.

A few days later, information about Meiyi reached Lady Alicia.

Mei Yi, male, Terran, about 20 years old, in the past two months, in the major casinos of Zhenling, every gamble must win, directly led to the closure of more than ten casinos. The aristocracy behind the casino tried to kill people, but there was nothing they could do about this person called Meiyi.

After investigation, Mei Yi has nothing to do with the Land of Wind, his language habits are completely different from those in the Land of the Wind, and his clothing is completely different from the Land of the Wind. It is preliminarily inferred that Meiyi should have come to Hualing to avoid trouble. Otherwise, he would not have bought the mansion opposite the Duke's mansion at a high price.

Alicia put away the information, and then she was relieved.

Bad gamblers are not terrible, but they are afraid of those who have different intentions.

She didn't see Esther, and when she heard that Esther was playing with Meiyi, she hurried to the door of the mansion and hid behind the gate to watch.

Esther is kicking the shuttlecock with Meiyi at the door.

Lady Alicia felt strange in her heart, her daughter had been cold since she was a child, she didn't care much about people, and she didn't have many friends, so she didn't know why she liked to play with this human so much.

Esther said: "Meiyi, I can't come to play with you often, my mother won't let me look for you." ”

Mei Yi smiled: "Well, your mother is right, this era is not very peaceful now, Esther, listen carefully to Lady Alicia, she may be more controlling, but she really loves you, you have something to say, you can't hold it all in your heart." ”

Lady Alicia was furious.

What does it mean to be controlling?

That's my daughter!

Esther said, "Well, I know mom is doing it for my good. I'm practicing swordsmanship now, but I don't have a sword in my hand, the sword at home is too heavy, and my arms are thick. ”

Mei Yi said: "Don't leave yet, I have something good for you." ”

A minute later, Meiyi took out a white sword and handed it to Esther: "I gave it to you, so I can have a tenth birthday soon, right?" This sword is made of god-level demonic beast bones, and demonic beasts below the legendary level are no different from tofu in front of it. This sword has been cut, you have to be careful. You can also ask your family to help you seal the blade. ”

As soon as Lady Alicia heard about the god-level demonic beast, she said in her heart: This person is not only a bad gambler, but also a liar, and he must keep Esther away from him.

Esther waved his sword and said suspiciously, "Meiyi, this sword is so light, it won't break, right?" ”

Mei Yi smiled: "No, go back and practice hard." Esther, you're going to be an amazing psychic and swordsman. ”

Esther thought for a while, took off a string of jewels and jade knotted in her hair, gave it to Meiyi, and said, "Mom said that you can't take other people's things for nothing, this is for you." ”

Mei Yi accepted it with a smile, then returned to the house and closed the door.

Seeing Esther returning, Alicia took the sword in her hand and said sharply, "Esther, didn't I say that I was not allowed to meet him?" This man is a gambler, and he likes to lie, and he is a person who is spurned by the goddess. ”

Esther argued, "Mom, why do you say he's a liar? ”

Alicia was angry and funny: "Esther, he said that this sword is made of god-level demonic beast bones. Do you know what a god-level Warcraft is? A god-level demonic beast is enough to level a country, and no one can stop it at all. Even our ancestor, Goddess Emilia, only drove away, not killed, god-level demonic beasts. Where did he get the bones of god-level demonic beasts? ”

Esther was speechless for a while, so she had to lower her head and say obediently: "Okay, Mom, I won't look for him anymore, I will obediently practice swords at home." ”

Alicia stroked Esther's hair, trying to soften her voice, "Well, Esther, be obedient. If you want to inherit this Flower Spirit City in the future and protect the residents of Flower Spirit City, you must work hard and work hard. This kind of deceptive thing, let mom dispose of it. ”

Alicia took the sword that Meiyi had given Esther and slashed at the boulder by the lake.

She watched as the sword in her hand touched the boulder like a kitchen knife touching tofu, easily splitting the boulder in half without any effort.

She sat down on the ground in fright.

Esther was a little puzzled, and asked weakly, "Mom, is this also called a lie?" ”

During the meal, Alicia talked to her husband, Alfie, about it.

Alfi pondered for a moment and said, "This human should have no ill intentions. Some of the famous families in the human race have deep contradictions with the nobles of the Land of the Wind, and choose to live in the elven world. The depth of these people's family heritage is unimaginable, perhaps, this Meiyi is this kind of person. Maybe one day we'll be able to use it. ”

Alicia said: "That's the only way to explain, so let's keep it for now." ”

Alfi said: "How are the Luoqin couple doing? ”

Alicia shook her head and said, "After Iki's identity was revealed, the situation of the two of them became worse and worse. Recently, I have received a lot of information, and some nobles are also fighting about the idea of Iki, and the puppet king has done a lot of good things when he was in office, and he is still popular among the people. ”

Alfie smiled: "Madam, don't worry, can they still attack Hualing City to rob people?" ”

Alicia: "I know, but it's always good to be careful." ”

After eating, Alfie said, "Madam, I am going to the front soon. ”

Alicia said, "Well, you go, don't worry about things at home." ”

When Alfie's hand reached into Alicia's clothes, Alicia's face turned red.

She closed the door to the restaurant.

The porcelain that kept falling couldn't hide the sound of ecstasy.

Alicia straightened her skirt and spent a moment with her husband.

Alfie hugged her eldest daughter, kissed Avril Lavigne who was still asleep, and waved goodbye to his wife.

In the next few days, Alicia saw that Esther had been staying at home practicing swordsmanship, so she wondered: "Esther, why don't you go to the uncle on the other side to play?" ”

Esther said, "Uncle? Oh, you mean Meiyi. He's going to run some errands these days, and he's not at home. ”

Alicia said, "Did he tell where he was going?" ”

Esther nodded and said, "Well, he said that he was going to the subhuman kingdom, and promised me that he would bring me a baby dragon bird." ”

Alicia frowned and said, "The subhuman kingdom? Dragon Bird? What are these things? I've never heard of it. ”

Esther said: "Mom, I don't know, I asked, he smiled, didn't say anything, just said to me, when the time comes, I will know everything." ”

Alicia felt more and more incredible.

The doubts in her heart prompted her to make a decision that she thought was ridiculous.

At night, she effortlessly infiltrated Meiyi's home.

Sure enough, there was no one inside.

It looks like a very luxurious house, but the furnishings inside are very simple.

In addition to the most basic utensils, there are only books, a whole shelf of books.

Alicia casually flipped through a book, glanced at it by the moonlight, and found that it was densely packed with handwriting.

She frowned.

Words are ugly.

She was surprised to find that the entire bookshelf was handwritten by this human named Meiyi.

She took out the glass lamp she had brought with her and shook it, and the whole room lit up.

She saw a notebook on the table, so she picked it up and looked at it carefully.

Looking at it, I was covered in cold sweat.
