Chapter 20: The Kind Brasser Family

Laurendia of Syrsa is the most prosperous and fertile territory of Syrsas. One of the world's three great beasts, the Realm Divine Prison, is located here. The Dongming Ancient River, which originates in the area of the west and east of Silsporita, flows leisurely, traverses the whole of Silsa from west to east, and finally falls into the vast ocean of Poruno, passing through three important cities of Silsa on its way, and galloping eastward through Simu, Yuling and Laurentiia.

The great city of Lauridia was built on the bank of the ancient Dongming River, and the clear and silent Dongming River slowly flowed through, for thousands of years, I don't know how much convenience and good hope it brought to the Lauridian people. Starting from the Dongming Ancient River and looking north, you can see rows of boats of various sizes, tall and sturdy flood control levees, wide boulevards, and towering pavilions rising from the ground. The architectural style of the pavilion is very different from that of the four woods of Dongchi, it is not only tall, but also slightly has the characteristics of the tower of the Tiiro Tower, in addition to the whole body of blue, its top is more triangular and abelar, with a black statue of the god Sa, because the designer of this strange style is the famous master here Keskaida, so it is called the Caskaida style building.

Inside, through the rows of towering buildings, there are halls and temples, where avenues are lined one ring after another, and houses are scattered on one side of the street, and on the other side are all kinds of shops for the consumption of the wealthy people. In addition, Laurendia is also a sword-forging city, the sword-forging technology here has always been the world's first-class level, they are national, but they do not forge swords for the country, and sometimes they also forge swords in large numbers for the Yas, the hunter tribe in the Green Mountains.

At dusk, Brasseur, who was walking back from the Grand Plaza de la Murocigas, was walking down the boulevard of Laurendia, home. Forced to make a living, his beloved Yuling horse has been sold by him. In the past few years, the people living in the great plains of Itanasus have often said that they have seen terrible evil spirits, and even some of the inhabitants have been murdered by them, and although none of the family has seen it with their own eyes, they still feel the gravity of the situation, and after a moment of hesitation. Feeling that it was important to save their lives, they abandoned their beloved quiet new home and moved to this old home in Laurentidia.

Here and now, the glowing sun hangs on the pavilion in the west in the distance. Nearby, the light that leaked through the gaps in the leaves shone dappledly, and from time to time the breeze of the Dongming Ancient River blew from the water, and under the shade of the trees, it was quiet and peaceful. Passers-by on the street met Brasser. They all greeted him again and again, and he politely bowed his head in return.

"Brasser seniors. At this moment, someone shouted behind him.

"Are you out for a walk? Brasser turned around, and a scrawny middle-aged man caught up with him, and walked with him, the middle-aged man was ragged, unkempt, and wrinkled, showing a row of incomplete cavities, and asked with a smile, although he was middle-aged, he looked like an old man.

"Brother Crewe. Brasser recognized him at a glance and said kindly: "There are some small things in the capital of the country today. I just got back from there. ”

Then he slowed down and asked: "You look so embarrassed, you must go to the bank of the Dongming Ancient River to help those rich merchants pull boats, this kind of work is too tiring, I'm afraid that you can't stand it, don't go again in the future, find a better job even if you earn less money is much better than this." ”

"Alas," said Brother Crewe, his face showing infinite sorrow, "how can I do it if I don't go? It's a little tired, but life is like this, you know?"

There was an excited look on his face. "My son is now thirteen years old, and I plan to earn more money so that he can find a better master to learn some knowledge, and when he grows up, he will be respected like you, and he can travel around prosperously. You can also go to the good place of Dongchi Simu, the national capital, to see it, at least not like me. ”

Seeing the simple smile on his face, Brasser took out a few pieces of Lauren (1) from his pocket, stuffed his hands into his hands, and said solemnly: "You can take this little money first, at least you can buy something, your son I have seen, he is four years behind my family's Lotosas, he is a man of few words, but he is silent and kind, if there is a problem with his education, I can help you solve it." ”

"You are such a good man. Crewe's eyes flashed with emotion, but he pushed the money back with one hand, "You, don't look at Brother Crewe with little knowledge, but I also know that you don't have much money, your kindness, I can only understand it, over the years, only you have been so good to me, I really can't repay it." ”

Brasser forcibly pushed the money to him, smiled and said, "I'm almost home now, Brother Crewe must not have eaten yet, go and sit at home." ”

"No," said Krewe, shaking his head again and again, looking at his dirt-covered attire, looking at his mud-covered attire, "Look at me like this, and I don't freak out your wife and children." ”

"What are you talking about," Brasser said, taking Brother Crewe's hand, and said enthusiastically again, "Aren't you very good-looking? The most simple and kind person in my eyes is you, and you have not been to my house, and I often mention you to my family, and they want you to come to my house." ”

At Brasser's sincere invitation, Crewe finally couldn't refuse.

Turning along the pavilion on the bank of the river, and then walking up a hundred meters of deep alleys, in a land where the sparkling acacia grows, another turn, to Brasser's residence. Although it is located in the bustling city of Laurentiia, it is quiet and quiet.

The door was locked, and the sound of a harp could be heard inside. As soon as Brasse heard it, he knew what it was, and smiled at Crewe: "It's my son's piano sound, and this art and all things are influenced by his mother." ”

Kruchin looked at Brasser enviously, "Alas, they all blame me for my incompetence and inability to give this to my son, and your son will definitely achieve great things in the future." ”

"If you don't mind," said Brasser, tapping on the knocker, "of course you can bring Bakvi (2) here, my wife will be more than willing to teach him this." ”

"Father must be back!" Hearing the doorbell, Lotosas ran out of the house and opened the door.

"Who is this?" asked little Rotosas, who had grown up, his thick black hair up to his waist, his eyes piercing, and still wearing a wide robe, when he saw Crewe.

"This is the big brother Crewe I often talk to you about. Brasser introduced.

With a fiery smile on his face, Lotosas bowed deeply, stretched out his arms and hugged Crewe, then let go of him and ran quickly to the door.

"You must be tired, Uncle Crewe, come and sit down. Crewe was taken aback by this enthusiastic gesture of Lotosas, and he quickly waved his hand politely, "No, no." Crewe's unfamiliarity with this place was evident in the words.

At this time, her mother, Goshen, also walked out.

"Please, Brother Crewe, I'll go and prepare some food and drinks for you now. Her mother's hair was all rolled up, and she heard a conversation from the back room.

"No, no, no!" Kru refused, and he said embarrassedly, "I'm just very thirsty, just bring me a bowl of water, my son must be at home waiting for me to go back, I can't let him be anxious." ”

Lotosas listened, and hurriedly brought him a bowl of water, and after drinking the water, Crewe was about to leave, and even if Brasser tried to keep it, he couldn't stop it.

"Then," said Brasser helplessly, "you can go back first, but remember to take care of yourself!" He held Crewe's hand tightly, looked at his old and emaciated face, and couldn't help but feel an impulse in his heart, but he immediately held back, stuffed a cooked chicken into the hands of Brother Crewe, and said affectionately: "If there is anything in the future, just come to me." ”

After Crewe left, Brasser didn't eat, and kept walking back and forth under the big locust tree in the courtyard.

"Father, it's your birthday, and you have no meat and some drinks, how much do you drink? "Rotosas stood in front of the door, with a large book in his hand, and said softly with a frown, "You haven't eaten for a day, and my mother and I are afraid that you will be sick." ”

"Go and eat with your mother first. Brasser let out a long sigh, his wise face full of sorrow, "I'll eat in a moment." ”

"Husband," said the mother, as she came out of the house, "what is wrong with you? Ever since the young man named Silas, who saw you a few years ago, and I don't know what he told you, you have been thinking about going to heaven every day, can you tell me what happened?"

"No, not because of that. Brasser hurriedly walked into the house, called his wife and children in, closed the doors and windows, and said solemnly: "Today I went to the national capital, as you know, the statue of the god Sa was beheaded. The incident had already attracted the attention of the whole country, but Cillins actually said that the person who cut off the head of the statue of the god Sa was General Chivero, who had not returned for almost eight years. ”

"General Civelo?" Although Lotosas had never met Civelo, he had always respected Civero because of the influence of his family, "Hasn't he already been declared by the king to have died in the West?"

"Yes," Brasser nodded, "it was announced eight years ago, when you were only nine years old, and the whole country knew about it at the time, and they mourned for him. ”

"So that means he's still alive?" asked Lotusas.

"Maybe, who knows what kind of big lie that Chillins guy is telling again. Brasser lowered his voice and said, "When I was buried in the coffin, I clearly noticed that the coffin was light and weak, and it seemed that there was no one inside, the death of General Sitolie is still a big mystery, his son Silas has not been found since he parted with me on that day, Black Eagle Miringa has been looking around and still can't see where he went, our king Sillins seems to be lying all the time, and now I don't know what he wants to do to General Chivero......"
