"Don't be afraid, baby, it's all over, it's all over. Listen to my brother read poems to you. Cohen tearfully picked up Jean Lun and stood against the wall, not letting him see the bloody wind and rain spraying everywhere in the room, and chanting a poem he had heard from the white shadow before: "The earth and the blue sky, forever dependent, the sun and the moon and the stars, forever silent......"

The white figure of the raven fluttered around the room, and for the first time in Cohen's memory, he let out a roar of rage when he killed someone.

“…… The majestic hills, the rushing rapids, the tall trees, and the soft grass are all the blessings of nature. Cohen walked through the passage with what could only be described as skin and bones, caressing her head with one hand, not letting the blood sprayed around her enter her frightened eyes, and at the same time chanting in her ear in a gentle tone the dragon poems, the poems that the white shadow wanted him to remember: "We must treat this qiē with reverence and humility, and every day of our existence, we will remember the blessings of nature and strive to blend in with them......"

The crow flew through the small space, so fast that it was difficult for the naked eye to catch up, and his white shadow was all in front and behind the passage, and the dozens of guards who rushed from the various entrances had already been stirred into powder by him before they could even figure out what was going on in front of them.

As Cohen pushed open an iron door and stepped onto the steps leading to the ground, the crow's figure flew out of his head, leaving few of the guards in the courtyard in the blink of an eye.

For some reason, the crow was angry, but no one under his command could escape, and Cohen had barely taken a few steps when the last of the guards fell. In the night wind, the crow's flying figure stopped without warning, bowed his head and closed his eyes. Standing with a sword.

"Although I am very reluctant to admit it. But the way you look angry is really handsome. Cohen walked over to him and stopped: "I'll give you one thing." Help me get those kids here. ”

"Why do you command me? The crow didn't look up, and whispered back to Cohen, "Wasteman who didn't do anything." ”

"From now on, I'm not going to let Chinlen out of my sight. Cohen didn't turn his head either: "That's all, no other reason." ”

The crow snorted dissatisfied, seemingly reluctantly, but his body still shook, and flew back to the passage upside down, and the next moment he had already placed the two little girls at Cohen's feet.

"Seven in total. It's all here. After rescuing the little girls, the crow's voice was a little colder.

"What else is there in this abbey?" Cohen looked at the crow, "What makes you angrier?"

"Next to that room......" Raven's face tightened, "You won't want to know." ”

"They should have sounded the alarm, we should leave. Cohen looked at the flames burning on the roof of the monastery: "White Shadow!"

The bird-like white shadow flapped its wings and flew to Cohen's side.

"Send the kids back to camp and we'll meet in the passageway. After instructing the White Shadow, Cohen looked at the crow again: "If nothing else, can you come with me?"

The raven's anger came quickly, and it calmed down just as quickly. At this moment, he was completely calm, looking back at Cohen, and was surprised by the change in this "trainee friend".

After picking up the little girl, the original smile on her hippie face had disappeared. Instead, there was a look he hadn't seen before.

What kind of look was that...... Is it majestic, is it indifferent, is it fierce, is it firm? It seems to be a mixture of these, and it is as if it is nothing.

But one thing is for sure. This trainee friend of mine has shown his true colors, or rather, he is revealing his true colors little by little.

"Have you finished reading?" Cohen urged, "We don't have much time, you can take your time when you leave here." ”

The raven was silent, and nodded after a moment.

"White Shadow, burn this place. Cohen walked outside: "If you can, I don't blame you for bulldozing this mountain." ”

"That doesn't match the poem you're reading. The crow walked behind and unceremoniously found fault: "Don't say this in front of the child." ”

"Sorry, my darling. Cohen kissed Qin Lun's face, then turned to the crow and smiled, "Thanks for the reminder." ”

The crow was stunned, Cohen's smile was very sincere, and it was completely different from the previous "sincere smile", so that the crow almost wanted to respond with a smile, although he stopped himself with the calmness of a killer at that moment, but he felt a little guilty in his heart.

Walking on the passage down the mountain, Qin Lun's body was still shaking, his two little hands were tightly protected above his head, and he didn't dare to raise his eyes to look at Cohen or the crow, Cohen's heart ached, and then he found a stream and washed his hands and face.

"Little baby is not afraid, my brother will wash your hands, wash it and give my brother something to eat! Brother has bacon here, there are sausages, there are small white breads, and there will be candy ......."

Cenon watched Cohen wash his hands and face blankly, not even reacting at all.

"Crow, what's wrong with Chinlen?" Cohen looked at Chinlen's sunken face, thinking of the torture she might have endured before, and felt his heart break.

"She's only seven years old, and she's not yet able to adapt to the changing environment. The crow sat on a big rock by the stream: "I have been living in that kind of place, and you suddenly appeared, and suddenly you were so good to her, how could she adapt immediately?"

"So what to do?"

"Don't ask me, I'm a killer who only gives people death, doesn't care for people. The raven said with a blank face, "I only know one thing, if you want to make her happy, you have to be patient." ”

"You've been playing cool, but I know you're not a stagnant pool of water. Cohen wiped the stains on Qinlun's face with a small strip of cloth, and said with a smile: "Besides, I don't like your expression at all, why do you have a cold face at such a warm moment?

"If you still want to continue to be a trainee friend, don't try to discuss the topic. The crow stood up: "We will have guests come to the door, you take Qin Lun to the front, and I will send the guests." ”

"Don't be in such a hurry! it's not a piece of cake for you to deal with them anyway, how can we be intimidated by these little trash fish in such a dazzling combination?" Cohen carefully washed Qin Lun's hands, "Our little princess can't be dirty anymore. We're going to be beautiful. Isn't that Qinlun?"

"I should have understood. People like you don't have to be serious for long. ”

"That's who I am. Cohen smiled and lifted Jean Lun to the stone: "I'm an ordinary person, I can't make anyone happy with me, I can satisfy a certain group of people at a certain time, it takes a lot of effort. And now, I have to satisfy our little princess first—dangdang!

The fragrant bacon was placed in front of Qin Lun, and Qin Lun's immediate reaction was to shrink back and move away from these things.

"Little baby. Eat a little, eat more will make you healthy......" Cohen was about to say something, but Qinlun kept shrinking back, always shrouded in fear.

"Do you think that a thin child like this usually has the opportunity to eat bacon?" the crow scoffed at Cohen's sluggish reaction, "I've been in that environment all the time, and of course I'm afraid of anything unfamiliar." Maybe she'll think you're going to do something to her, you have to eat it for her. ”

"That's right...... It seems that you know children better than I do. Cohen patted his head: "Why don't you come and eat with her?" I'll take your sword and help you stand." ”

"Do you think I'm suitable? A killer coaxes a little girl into bacon?"

"To others, it's true that you're a killer, but to me, you're my friend. Cohen smiled and sat down. Holding Qin Lun in his arms: "To our little princess, you are a big brother who rescued her from the convent. Stand up a little bit! Do you hate us for standing so far away?"

"I don't dislike you. The crow stood closer: "I'm just a little disappointed in your watch." ”

"I'm glad you have expectations for my watch...... Byeon, I've never done anything like this before, and you're going to give me time to learn. Cohen glared at the crow, "Don't stand!

"Come, start eating the meat, it's very fragrant!" Cohen took out his knife, cut the bacon into small slices, and handed it to the crow and Qin Lun respectively, and stuffed a piece into his mouth to eat for Qin Lun.

Qin Lun watched Cohen eat with a blank face, and the hand holding the bacon kept it unresponsive, and in vain Cohen made a very enjoyable expression.

"Eat, little baby, tomorrow my brother will take you to eat something more delicious......" Cohen kept to his mouth, and Qin Lun put a little bit of meat in his mouth with trepidation.

"Chew, chew a little and try it. Both Cohen and Raven breathed a sigh of relief, and Cohen immediately chewed on her.

Maybe Qin Lun was really hungry, she chewed tentatively first, and then stuffed a large handful of meat slices into her mouth!

"Slow down, slow down—my princess, you'll choke. Cohen couldn't cry or laugh, took the water bag handed by the crow, and poured some water for Qin Lun: "Eat slowly, we have a lot, slow down!"

Qin Lun gulped down, her eyes relieved from fear, but she didn't have much spirituality, she just stared at Cohen, for fear that he would steal her food...... With such a look, coupled with such a look, she is not so much a hungry person as a hungry little wolf.

"I don't think I can give her any more, I'm afraid she'll break it. Cohen said to the crow with a wry smile.

"It's understandable, the convent won't let her be fed. The crow shook her head: "It's remarkable that she was able to survive in that environment." ”

Look at her. Cohen stood up: "I'll leave for a moment." ”

"Why are you going?"

"Find something to distract her and help her wipe her mouth. ”

Cohen jumped into the nearby woods, and in a short time caught a clumsy little plush rabbit and a bird with beautiful feathers. In the middle of the night, he still has such good eyes.

"Little princess, I'm back!" Cohen walked back, putting his hand behind his back, and a smile on his face, "and came back with a gift—Dangdang!

Seeing the well-behaved little animal, Qin Lun finally got rid of her hunger, her eyes were shining, her mouth was screaming "ahhhhh

Cohen smiled and put the rabbit and the bird in her hand, and got what he liked, and finally a little smile appeared on Qinlun's face, she gently stroked the plush rabbit, then put the rabbit on her lap, held the bird and watched it endlessly, and finally peeled a little shredded meat from the bacon. Put it next to the bird's beak......

"Little baby. Birds don't eat this ......," Cohen spread his palms. A few small flying insects were revealed: "Feed it with this." ”

Carefully took the insect in Cohen's hand, Qin Lun's eyes were a little grateful, and he was no longer so afraid of Cohen, and looking at the smile on Qin Lun's face, the crow on the side also became very peaceful.

Like her sister, no matter how tragic her experience is, she is still so kind in her heart. Cohen whispered, "No matter how hard it is, I want the smile on her face to last forever—"

"Boom". Two crossbow bolts were fired in this direction. The crow reached out with lightning and grabbed the two bolts in his palm, and with a twist of his wrist, threw them back—two screams rang out from the bushes at once!

Little Qinlun's body shook violently in this wail, her dull eyes were full of fear, and she threw herself into Cohen's arms with a cry of "ahh

"You have to work hard for her smile. After saying this. The crow flew upward, and its sturdy figure folded in the air. Sliding into the woods on the other side of the creek, where he landed, there was immediately another miserable wail.

"Don't be afraid, little baby, with your brother protecting you, those filthy and ugly things will never be able to get close to you. Cohen reached out and grabbed the frightened bird, then picked up Qin Lun and put the bird in her hand: "You must also have courage and protect the birds and rabbits, they are so afraid." ”

Cenlun opened his eyes and looked at Cohen, nodding resolutely despite the tears on his face.

"Okay Qinlun, we're leaving! No matter where you go, my brother will always be by your side and will never leave you. Cohen stood up and shouted, "Crow—gone!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the white figure of the crow flew over Cohen's head, and with a scream, several more people turned into powder in the blood mist when he landed.

"Thou art the spirit of joy, thou art like a bird, thou art flown from the bosom of nature, pouring out joy without hesitation, and singing for us the tune of the heart like a cloud of water. Cohen walked through the passage opened by the crow, and whispered in Chinlen's ear, "You are like a cloud of fire, rising from the ground, rising and rising, flying into the blue sky, singing and soaring, singing ......and singing."

The poem that White Shadow sang in the war in order to dispel Cohen's murderous intentions finally came in handy at this time.

Cohen didn't even know that his memory would be so good that he could read it word for word, but anyway, Qin Lun's body no longer trembled, and his eyes only looked at the smiling Cohen, and the killing around him didn't attract her attention at all.

It's just that the crows are so hard that he has to fly around all the time, and he alone intercepts the enemies who are approaching from front to back, left and right—but according to the circumstances, it is really a piece of cake for him to deal with these people, and he even often has time to stop and see how Cinnen is doing.

After walking for several miles, the crow was enraged by the successive waves of enemies, and turned around, and when he returned, he did not say how many people he had killed, and no one had caught up with them that night......

After daybreak, Cohen and the crow flew away, went to a small town at noon, bought all the things they needed, took him to the doctor, and asked an aunt to help him take a bath and change his clothes.

Under the temptation of the reward of three silver coins, the aunt did her best, and Qin Lun finally revealed her true colors. The delicate facial features and gentle eyes can vaguely see the outline of the sister, although the face is still so thin, but the spirit has improved a lot.

"You are my princess. Cohen picked up Qin Lun, who had changed into new clothes, and turned around several times in a row: "I want to announce it to everyone!"

Qin Lun laughed, his wet hair dangling in the air.

"She's still very weak. The crow stood aside and drank boiled water with a cold expression: "Be careful." ”

"We ignore him, he is jealous of us. Cohen smiled and said to Qin Lun, "Little princess, we are leaving!"

The crow snorted coldly and turned away, but smiled from an angle that Cohen's eyes couldn't see.

"Look, little baby, it's the blue grass!" Cohen sat on his shoulder, and kept pointing to the sight by the roadside, "Say it again! If we call it by name, it will be happy, blue!"

"Ahh

"Okay, look over there. Broadleaf Flame Tree!" Cohen was not discouraged at all: "We shouted—Broadleaf Flame Tree!"

"Ahh

"Cloth Bird!"

"Ahhh

"Well done. Little princess. We shouted – we were happy!"

"Ahh

"Slow down. The crow appeared beside Cohen and took a small sip to feed Qin Lun water: "Let's take our time, you don't have to rush to talk." ”

"Yes, we need to rest and find a place to eat. Cohen laughed: "There's a town ahead, let's go buy sugar!"

Along the way, Cohen has an extremely doting attitude towards Jeanron, who can't speak, but sees things of interest. Her eyes would sparkle, and needless to say, the next moment it would be in her hands.

Of course, there are some things that can't be bought with money, but Qin Lun has the number one killer in the world by his side. As long as Cinnen wanted, as long as Cohen said it, the crow flew out like that.

But when trouble came, Cohen cried out, "Don't you know the child very well, she's suffered so much in that hellish place, and let her see how violence works!"

For a person as cold as a crow, it is extremely painful to convince the other party to come up with something. And Cohen was holding Qin Lun and watching the excitement.

The crows protested. Cohen's hippie smile said, "I'm going to put all my energy on the little princess, this is your request." "I dismissed it.

The crow was eaten to death by two people. It's not uncommon to be choked up, and the novel experience teaches the crow a lot of things, such as threats and blank checks.

Whenever he was angry, as long as Qin Lun gave a smile, the crow immediately lost his temper, and the most annoying time was when the crow tried his best to "grab" each other's bracelets, Cohen and Qin Lun were already squatting on the ground and playing with mud.

"You ......" the crow stammered as he spoke for the first time: "You ......"

"We're playing with mud. Cohen said, "Don't tell me you've never played. ”

"Actually......" The crow in snow-white clothes lowered his head: "I haven't played." ”

"Then why are you still standing?" Cohen looked at the crow with a very strange look, "Let's play together!"

"You told me to play with this?" the crow almost blew up, but Qin Lun was already waving a pair of dirty hands at the crow.

The crow was about to dodge, but Cohen said, "Don't move, she likes you." "Given the body...... The crow couldn't bear to close his eyes, let Qin Lun grab his clothes, and finally sighed, and picked her up and put her on his shoulder in the sound of Qin Lun's "ahhh

"Hahahaha...... Well done Qinlun. Cohen patted the mud on his hands, stared at the crow's clothes with bad intentions, and said something that made the crow half angry: "Friend, you have been dragged down to the dust by our little princess." ”

In Cohen's arrogant laughter, the crow shook his head and hit the road without arguing.

Along the way, the crow "snatched" a total of three flowers, two pairs of earrings, and five glittering magic scrolls for Qin Lun...... Success.

When Cohen shouts praises to the crow as if he were the savior of Cinn, the crow usually stares at him viciously until Cinnen gives him a worried look.

Therefore, there is only one way to vent the sullenness in the crow's heart. When Qin Lun saw things like horsewhips and sticks, his eyes would show fear again, and he would hide in Cohen's arms in fear. Then, these things will be powdered in the first place.

For the next few days, whenever she pleased, she could climb on the shoulders of two murderers and sit and play, and she even invented a coherent set of movements that started with the run-up and ended with the shoulder sitting, which was easy and quick – of course, she would stand in front of someone beforehand, point her finger at herself, and then make an "ahhhhhh

In a warm atmosphere, the three of them were very happy, although everyone did not mention breaking up, but it was a doomed ending, and after a few days of carefree days, the words of breaking up were finally brought up.

"Really?" said this, Cohen was feeding Cinnen, "I still can't convince you to stay with us!

"My fate is not in my hands. The crow was always indifferent: "It's outrageous to let you know my name and keep you alive." ”

"You're not involved in a good career, just like Qin Lun's sister. Cohen handed the spoon to the crow, "But I don't want to regret it this time...... Leave your profession and I will help you wherever you want to do. ”

"It's not up to me to decide what I want to do. The crow shook his head and took over feeding Qin Lun, "Besides, I didn't even think about what I was going to do, and now it's good." ”

"What if somebody asks you to kill me one day?

"There won't be that day. The crow smiled faintly, "What kind of character are you? ”

"I mean, if ...... What would you do?"

"Killers don't think about ifs. ”

"This is the request of a trainee friend, let's assume if. ”

"If there is such a day...... I don't know. The raven handed the spoon back to Cohen: "The person I want to kill, the one who has not escaped......"

"When are you leaving?" Cohen asked in a low voice, staring at the crow.

"Now. The crow smiled wryly: "I don't want to procrastinate. ”

"Qin Lun, Brother Crow is hungry. Cohen handed the spoon to Chinlen, "Can you feed Brother Crow?"

Zenlun nodded obediently, climbed onto the table, and raised the spoon to the crow's mouth, and Cohen looked around, trying not to look at them.

"Qin Lun should be obedient and be a good boy. The crow put his hand into his arms, took out a headdress for a long time, looked at it a few times, and then inserted it into Qinlun's head: "Brother Crow only has this thing to give you, Brother Crow is an unclean person, he is not qualified to bless you, but Brother Crow will always like you......"

"Ahh......hh

"I sue you......" Cohen suddenly said as the crow walked out, "No one has a right to say that others are unclean—no one is qualified to say so!"

The crow stopped: "If everyone says that, you can't help it. ”

"Really, then I don't care about this as long as you stay!" Cohen struggled until the last moment: "You don't admit this in your heart, do you......?" Don't go, tell me, can we still meet?"

"Remember where we first met?" Raven stopped again, "If you're free, we'll see you next year today." ”

"See you or leave!"

"See you or leave you...... My friend. ”

After turning a corner, the crow took out a mask covering his face from his bosom and put it on, and stood there for a long time before moving away. (To be continued......)
