"Laifu, tell grandpa what kind of person you want to be in the future. ”

"Rich people. ”

"Rich?"

"Yes, I want lots and lots of money. ”

The strong smell of tobacco seemed to have crossed the limits of the endless galaxy and plane at this moment, and lingered on the tip of Li Laifu's nose again, and he never forgot the deep sigh of the ancient old man after hearing his words, and the tragic situation of his inexplicable sudden death in the end.

I don't even remember the appearance of the old man who called himself 'grandpa', only the phrase 'no desire and no desire for self-blessing' still echoes clearly in my ears.

"Ridiculous. ”

Two syllables with a nameless fire burn in the boundless snowy night.

At this time, Li Laifu was comparable to the big stone pillars guarding the kingdom of Tustin.

It's been thousands of years, and I haven't said a word, and I don't panic.

Because in front of him sat a girl, the little bastard in his mouth.

**'s hands and feet were red from the cold, and the crystal snowflakes hung on her slightly scattered bun, but no matter how the wind and snow devastated her, it was still difficult to change a touch of true purity and kindness in her clear eyes.

"Pitch black pupils, where are you from?"

Choosing to break this silence, Li Laifu showed a kind smile and asked softly at this woman like a snow elf, and even blinked his eyes deliberately, as if showing off that he was also the same color as her.

Maybe the night covered up the black light in Li Laifu's eyes, or maybe Li Laifu was destined to have no chance with women in his past and present lives, anyway, he thought that the smile that could make those ladies feel as comfortable as a spring breeze didn't play any role.

The girl didn't even look at him, she played with the broken deadwood harp in her hand, forty-seven strings vibrating in her fingers, and the notes weaved seemed to make Li Laifu see a huge ruin, the crumbling walls were covered with dust, and even the sun could not stop the arrival of the night.

The movement played by the girl is the third in the immortal epic poem "The Death of the King", which was passed down by the bard.

From the withering after the glory, the low lament after the loss of a king.

The zigzag harp is like a bowstring ready to shoot, shooting into distant memories.

This immortal movement is not the first time Li Laifu has heard it, there are many guys in Viscount Max's mansion who like to play with such elegant things, but what is created from their hands is tantamount to the terrible screams of dying people in Li Laifu's ears, and even the humming and chirping of those lovely friends in the pigsty when they eat are ten thousand times more beautiful than that kind of noisy sound, defiled and blasphemed, this is the evaluation that Li Laifu gave to those elegant guys in Max's mansion after hearing this girl's performance.

"Don't stop, I love this tune, thank you. ”

Li Laifu took out a purple gold coin from the complicated and luxurious robe and quietly placed it in front of the girl.

"I won't hurt you, trust me, I'm a good person. ”

Looking at the fear in the girl's eyes, Li Laifu slowly retreated to a relatively safe distance for her, sat down cross-legged according to ancient etiquette, and quietly listened to the music of the harp with a strong historical atmosphere.

The girl stared blankly at the purple gold coin depicting angel wings, and then looked at the strange little boy not far away, and finally slowly crawled over, she was not stupid, she knew very well that she needed this bright looking gadget, her fate, emotions, life and death, were all determined by it, didn't it depict angel wings? That kind of holy relic is a symbol of salvation in mythology.

The look of disappointment in Li Laifu's eyes flashed, he hoped to meet a perfect story, although it was not possible in this world, he still had a hint of fantasy.

However, just like this dark night, his pitch-black pupils also lost the heat of the previous second, and instantly became faint, as if at this time he had become the gloomy outsider in the Max family who had been silent for seven years, meticulous to the terrifying seven-year plan, looking forward to the accumulation of a certain day.

The snowflakes fell on the girl's eyebrows, like elves hanging from the treetops, and she stretched out her hand, which should have been white and tender, and trembled to approach the gold coin that contained hope and beauty.

Closer, closer, just a little bit forward, she could pick up the coin and do something she could only dream of.

It's just that the guy of fate has woken up again, and he's going to start pulling some bad tracks.

"God of Light, what did I see! An ugly thief, even a girl! What a shame, it seems that your family also went to see Satan because of your filthiness, don't you understand that everything in this land belongs to the king of Tustin?"

A shout, as if from a demon's fury, interrupted the longing in the girl's gaze.

Out of the darkness came an even darker figure, a knight with the glory of the king's crown.

The silver armor looks sturdy, and the 'Three-Armed Giant' coat of arms on it symbolizes one of the supreme glories of the Tustin Kingdom, and also means that the knight comes from one of the noblest knights in the Tustin Kingdom.

Li Laifu quietly looked at this uninvited guest, the cold light of the silver armor blooming in the dark night wrapped this knight with a mouth full of loyalty and glory, this kind of hypocritical holiness made this wild child who came out of the poor mountains and bad waters feel very uncomfortable, just like enjoying the rum in the luxurious and noble aristocratic dinner, but suddenly found that there was suddenly a clean-looking fly in the goblet full of fine wine, and the fly kept making a proud 'buzzing' sound.

"What a clown in a shell. ”

Li Laifu whispered softly, and the killing intent in his eyes flashed.

The knight's afterglow shot through the fluttering snowflakes like a sharp sword towards Li Laifu, who was sitting cross-legged on the ground, but when he saw the noble robe Li Laifu was wearing, he paused slightly, but still walked towards the weaker-looking girl with his head hidden by the armor held high.

"God of Light is above, and we need no mercy in the face of greed. ”

Although the Mithril Armor had been trying hard to hide its owner, the greedy smile on the corner of the noble knight's lips seemed to be a living being, bursting out of the strict protective barrier and blooming on his master's face.

"This purple gold coin, a symbol of salvation, I will deliver it to the God of Light for you, no need to thank you, for a child like you, who has lost your faith and is surrounded by sin, it is necessary for me, as a knight of the kingdom, to prevent you from going further and further on the road of no return. ”

Not caring at all about Li Laifu's smile that could even be called 'terrifying', the knight, who thought he was very eloquent, picked up the purple gold coin on the ground with a spring breeze on his face, and put it into the sturdy armor that represented glory with satisfaction.

One gold coin is enough to make poverty go away from you.

A purple gold coin engraved with angel wings was enough for the nobles to have the capital to give alms.

Today's windfall, the God of Light will indeed protect his followers.

The knight was about to leave with a disgusting smile, tonight he was an elite sent by a big man on a mission, although the weather was not good, the wind and snow always made him feel uncomfortable, but the receipt was not small, this feeling of heaviness in his arms was too addictive, and the little boy who looked silly, don't tell me that this purple gold coin was given by him, it was so funny, I really don't know which old fox would give birth to such a cute cub, if I am lucky enough to meet that nobleman, I will definitely thank him。

The knight's form faded away, and in the blink of an eye it was about to dissipate beneath the endless night sky.

"Knights of the Royal Giants, shouldn't they be hiding by the warm fire and laughing to their heart's content right now, or is it that some big man has some discomfort in his lower body and needs them to come out and find some nutritious fertilizer?"

Li Laifu whispered slowly, the wind and snow hit his face, and at this moment he realized that the weather was really a little cold, and the little girl's helpless eyes looked at the boy who didn't seem to hate her.

The gap between her and the adult was too extreme, she was afraid, she didn't dare to catch up, she might be killed if she caught up, she didn't want to die, she wanted to live, and she could continue to play her beloved harp if she lived.

Thinking of the harp that gave her hope, the little girl laughed again, and the five fingers were either nervous or excited, but they were curled up together, dark green, frostbitten by the wind and snow.

Li Laifu sighed and clenched his fists, in fact, he couldn't do anything on his own.

"Old Troy, I hope you're not challenging my patience, because it's a very stupid thing to do, and you know, I'm angry right now. ”

Patting the mud stuck to the nobleman's robe, Li Laifu stood up, shook his hands wet with snow with a frown, and then looked at the dark night sky.

"Although I don't have the strength to prove anything now, I understand that this continent does not need weak people, and if possible, I guess you and Grandpa the Old Viscount must want me to be a gentleman who spends his days idle, and at most, he walks around the kilns with a few other nobles' wastes every day. Live your whole life according to the normal trajectory like this, don't participate in the deceit between the big guys, ignore the game competition between the big forces like legends, and at best throw me a few magic books that I can't understand in my life, perfunctory my **, is it a bit extreme for me to say this? Or am I just stating a fact. ”

A strange color suddenly bloomed under the dark night, like the shadow of a sword in the sun, and the golden fluctuations symbolizing the killing aura were like ripples on the surface of the water, causing ripples in the void.

The old housekeeper in a black robe stood in front of Li Laifu with a smile, his lips trembling slightly.

He had been secretly watching this last seed of hope for the Max family.

"Little Emery, if you hide your talent and the city a little deeper, I'm sure you'll get another fantastic luxury life. But you must also understand that the old viscount is not a noble and glorious knight, and Lord Goulette is no different from the demonized fox in the forest of despair in my eyes, so ah, he has seen everything you have done in the past seven years, and this is why you can be qualified to enter the Academy of St. Phyte. ”

The old butler muttered with a smile and looked at the little girl who had picked up the worn-out harp again not far away.

"If you have a **, then you must defend it with your own strength, and as for me, I am but an old and frail servant, and there is no record in the Slave Code that a servant is qualified to reign in place of his master, Lord Max Emery. As for the knight who looks powerful."

Troy's tone froze, as if the wind and snow fluttering in the sky also froze.

"I think he's a good fit as a sacrifice to the devil, but not yet. ”

Li Laifu shrugged his shoulders and ignored the old butler's words.

"Are you saying that the fire of anger in my heart right now is ridiculous?"

The old butler shook his head and smiled: "Of course not, if little Emory was brave, maybe some people could feel that I was warm." ”

The wind and snow fell on Li Laifu and the little girl's hair, their dark eyes were shining with strange brilliance, the black robe on the old butler's body was deep and terrifying, and with the end of this sentence, his figure gradually disappeared under the night sky that was about to usher in the morning light.

"Little Emery, don't forget, before dawn comes, it's the most dangerous, because the god of light will wake up at that point, and Viscount Goullet wants to see you one last time. ”

Li Laifu pondered for a long time and made a decision.

"Will you follow me? ”

He walked up to the little girl and stroked her hair gently, and the wind and snow fell on their shoulders, and on the hair, as if in silent cheer.

The girl looked at him meekly, and did not refuse such an intimate gesture.

"I'll help you get that purple gold coin back. ”

Li Laifu muttered to himself.
