I can finally start to take a good rest, Shi Di is already hungry. But just as he was happily putting a piece of bread stuffed with butter into his mouth, he was suddenly slapped on the back.

"Cough cough ......" Shi Di coughed violently, almost choked on his back, turned around angrily, but found that it was Anna squatting behind him, couldn't help glaring at Anna, and asked, "What are you doing?

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry......" Anna saw that Shi Di was choked enough, and she panicked and apologized.

Huh? This unbelievable pampered lady would actually apologize? When did she change her temperament? Shi Di stared at Anna with some suspicion, feeling that she seemed to be different from when they first met.

"You...... You don't matter, do you?" Anna asked anxiously when she saw that Shi Di didn't speak, and her big eyes showed a look of concern.

"You just had a little more strength, and I was directly shot to death by you, why don't you stay there to eat, what are you doing here?"

"I ...... I just suddenly remembered that I haven't thanked you properly...... "Anna looked at Shi Di with a shallow flush on her face, her eyes looked very bright under the flickering firelight, she paused, as if she was brewing courage, and then continued, "Thank you very much, Shi Di." ”

Since Shi Di met Anna, he had never heard Anna speak in such a sincere tone, and in his impression, this has always been a temperamental and ignorant lady, and even treats her parents with an impolite look. But this wayward eldest lady is now thanking him with such a sincere attitude.

Frankly speaking, Shi Di was a little surprised, which also made his impression of Anna change slightly.

"Hey, thank me for what I'm doing, I have something to figure out myself before I came here, helping you just by the way. What's more, your mother also gave us treasures and maps like the invisible cloak, so I should thank her, and bringing your oil bottle is nothing compared to this great gift!" Shi Di responded to Anna with a pretended lightheartedness, not wanting to make the atmosphere too serious.

"You! You're the oil bottle! It's your honor to have such a powerful swordsman as Miss Ben join!" Anna couldn't help but laugh, her eyes widened, and she looked like she was fiery.

This is the Anna he knows, Shi Di smiled secretly in his heart, stuffed a mouthful of bread, and chatted with Anna without saying a word.

"I said, you obviously know that the Ninth Layer Purgatory is so dangerous, and Asmodeus is even more powerful, with your strength, even if you practice swordsmanship for a lifetime, you may not be able to get the blood of Asmodeus, why are you still so obsessed with this matter?"

"You must think that my attachment is incomprehensible, not only you, but almost everyone is urging me to give up this crazy idea. Anna no longer crouched behind Shi Di, but sat down beside him, and continued, "But my attachment is not because I really care about this curse on my body. ”

"Actually, I didn't care if I had children, but I knew that my father and mother did. Although they don't say it, I understand that they are tormented by guilt all the time, and they have been deeply blaming themselves for what they did back then, and for so many years, this matter has been like a heavy boulder weighing on their hearts, preventing them from achieving true ease and peace. ”

"When I was a child, I didn't understand why my mother would always cry silently in the courtyard from time to time, and I didn't understand why my father was always so busy, sometimes I couldn't see each other for ten days and half a month. Later, I learned that my mother's tears were not for nothing, and that my father didn't really have so many things to deal with. My mother wept because she was sad about my fate, and my father deliberately kept himself so busy because he couldn't face me, because he couldn't face this daughter who was cursed because of him, so he arranged a lot of work for himself, and wanted to use his work to anesthetize himself. ”

"Isn't it ridiculous?" said Anna with a self-deprecating wry smile on her face, "because I was afraid that I would not be happy, but my father and mother lost their happiness because of it." ”

"Later, I slowly began to understand what was going on, and it turned out that it was all because of the curse on me. From that moment on, I was determined to lift this curse and let my father and mother come out of the shadow of this incident. I began to practice swordsmanship in a desperate way, pestering the best swordsmen in Napoleon's city every day, even though I was bruised every day. From barely wielding a sword, to finally being able to distinguish which positions are vital to the enemy, to now seeing enough to destroy the enemy, it has been eleven years of practice. ”

Speaking of this, Anna paused, as if recalling her childhood of hard sword training, and soon she came back to her senses and continued.

"It's not strong enough, it doesn't matter, I will continue to practice, no one wants to take me into the ninth layer of purgatory, it doesn't matter, I will be patient. I know that one day, I will step in here and take what I should have taken and regain the happiness that my father and mother had lost. That's my only goal so far, and no matter what, I'm going to achieve it, even if it costs me my life, and I won't give up. ”

"So, Shi Di, you know what? When I heard you say that you are willing to help me get in here, I am really happy. At first, I was happy only because my goal was finally achieved. Later, after all this journey together, I gradually began to understand that the reason why I am happy is also because I see the same firmness and perseverance from you and from all of you, as if I have found the same kind, and it turns out that there are people in this world who are not afraid of any danger for their own goals, just like me. And I'm deeply touched by the unconditional trust between you......"

"I accidentally said so much, and some of them didn't. As if realizing that she had unconsciously said too many innermost words to Shi Di, Anna suddenly stopped talking, she stroked her hair a little crampedly, looked at the brazier in front of her, and said the last sentence softly, "In short, thank you so much, Shi Di." ”

I can't imagine that this eldest lady still has such an emotional side! Shi Di thought to herself, but she couldn't see it, it turned out that the reason why she insisted on coming to such a dangerous place and insisting on accomplishing an almost impossible goal was not for her own consideration, but for the Hebrew city lord and the city lord's wife.

Is this the bond between the family members? The lord and his wife would be so worried about Anna that Anna would risk her life for them.

Shi Di looked at Anna, and suddenly felt a little envious of her, he grew up in an orphanage, although he was taken care of by Aunt Kusha, and there were good brothers like Tammer who lived and died, but he had this kind of affection like Anna, which he had never experienced.

"Miss Anna, I will definitely accompany you to achieve your goal to the end!"

"Go away, I'm the one who accompanied Miss Anna to the end!"

"Get out of the way, I'm going to recite a love poem to Miss Anna, ahem, ah—your sapphire eyes......"

These three guys have been eavesdropping on his conversation with Anna all the time!

Shi Di was about to be brought out by Anna's narration with a trace of sadness about his life experience, but as a result, the three living treasures of Alpha, Beta and Gamma were interrupted, but he couldn't feel sad at all. He rolled his eyes, only to think that it was a mistake to bring these three men in, and before entering the magma passage, no, they should be blasted back to Napoleon City at the three forks where they met!

"Miss Anna's filial piety is really commendable, and it seems that everyone has his own reasons for his persistence. Yan Song, who was sitting next to Shi Di, also heard Anna's words and suddenly spoke.

"Oh, what is your obsession, that beauty, say it and I'll help you realize it~" Gu Ci leaned over to Yan Sing again without a straight face.

"Sir, Yan Sing is just an ordinary little singer, neither the daughter of the city lord, nor the fate of being cursed, what kind of attachment can I have?" Yan Sing replied to Gu Ci with a smile in his charming eyes.

"No, no, no......" Gu Ci shook his head and dragged the text again, "You're not an ordinary little singer......"

"Oh, that gentleman thinks Yan Sing is ......" Yan Song's eyes flashed a cold light, could it be that Gu Ci had already discovered her identity?

"The so-called "Thousands of autumns are beautiful, pleasing to the eye are beautiful women, captivating the country and the city, and shocking the heavens"......" Gu Ci continued to shake his head and chant crooked poems, "You, you are a very beautiful little singer!"

"Uh...... Mr. has an overreputation, but he just happens to have a good skin, and he can't do anything. Yan Sing saw that Gu Ci had no intention of testing her identity, and secretly relieved herself.

"Hey, you're too modest, you have a good skin, but the effect is great......" Gu Ci's words sounded both joking and hinting at something, and his expression was just joking, but he couldn't see the truth or falsehood.

"The bright color of the world is heavy, and Xi Shi Ning is slight. Chao is the Yuexi girl, and the twilight is the concubine of Wu Palace. The cheap day is not very different, and you come to understand it rarely. Invite people to Fu Fan Powder, not self-dressing. Jun is favored and coquettish, and Jun is merciful. At that time, Huansha was a companion, and he had to return with the car. Thank the neighbor, follow the example of An Kexi...... "Seeing that the smoke didn't answer, Gu Ci didn't care, chanted poetry again, and slowly paced to find his turtle."

In this way, the party ended the dinner with Alpha, Beta, and Gamma constantly courteous to Anna, and the accompaniment that Anna constantly disliked.

Since what had happened before was indeed very depleting to everyone, after the meal, they decided to start resting immediately to nourish their spirits for the second layer of the Nine Layers of Purgatory tomorrow.

After discussion, it was determined that Ke Meng and Ta Mo would take turns on duty tonight, Ke Meng was in charge of the first half of the night, and Ta Mo was in charge of the second half of the night.

After everything was arranged, the group gathered their clothes and lay down, and soon fell asleep.

Easter Egg Theatre:

Alpha: Your eyes, the blue side of the sea......

Beta: It's always too quiet, like there's going to be a storm......

Gamma: Call for a summer, maybe that day will be gone......

Three-person chorus: the sea is shining with tears, like a dream......

Anna: (furious) Get out!
