The next day, Lindsay woke up again.

He was still coughing.

The red disease symbol in the status bar has not disappeared.

But this humble house was not the same as when he woke up yesterday.

On the dark wooden table, there was an additional candlestick with grease candles, facing the wooden chair that was newly tucked under the table. The dust on the other cabinet was wiped clean, and there was a piece of dry bread, a bowl of water, and a few bright red watery berries.

Wait, the body seems to be a little heavy?

Lindsay felt her body heavi, as if she was being held down by something.

He glanced down and saw that there was an extra blanket on his body, which was not new, but warm enough.

While he was asleep, the old woman added another blanket to him.

to fight off the disease that plagued Lindsay.

“……”

Lindsay pulled out of the blanket and was stunned for a moment, her stomach barking.

In the process, he also saw a brazier placed on the ground at the foot of the bed.

The feeling of having slept all day without eating quickly made Lindsay get up from the bed and take the dry bread and water from the cupboard.

Crunch –

I can't bite it.

Lindsay took the bread and looked at it, and took another bite in disbelief.

Quack –

Still didn't bite.

“……”

"So this water is used to make bread!"

Lindsay came to her senses, soaked in water, and finally ate her first bite of the staple food.

This hard, hard bread is very filling and doubles the effect when soaked in water.

Lindsay ate for a while, and the hunger pangs said goodbye to him.

Next, the eyes naturally fell on the bright red water oak. This is a shrub berry that looks a bit like a miniature apple and can be used as medicine.

Lindsay didn't know and took a bite down.

"Gow - so sour!"

The sourness immediately filled his mouth, and his face was squeezed into bitter melon.

Stimulated by the smell of Chinese medicine, he began to organize the thoughts in his mind.

I've been lying here all day.

The old woman listened to her story, and if she had the slightest malice, she would not have eaten the hard bread now.

First Alvet, then the old woman.

Lindsey thought.

If there's a lucky entry on the properties panel, it should be good.

After another moment.

With the food in her stomach, Lindsay gradually gained some physical strength.

The old woman had prepared the clothes at the head of his bed, as for Lindsay's original ......

In the fire in the village of Anwel, it was blackened, and the snow fled and was scratched to tatters, and it was afraid that a rag would be disliked.

But it was given to him by his own mother.

Without the protection of this dress, I'm afraid Lindsay would have frozen to death in the snow.

Lindsay solemnly put away the black rag, changed into the clothes prepared by the old woman, and opened the door and walked outside.

"Ahh

The winter sun immediately shone on Lindsay.

Even in the cold air, it feels warm, as if the whole world is lit up.

Yesterday's heavy snow has stopped.

The snow in the inner courtyard of the church was swept up by the old woman and piled up on the edge of the bare garden.

Lindsay looked around.

An inner courtyard of more than 20 square meters, several low houses surrounding the inner courtyard, and a chapel connected to the courtyard.

That's what unfolded in front of Lindsay, plain and unpretentious.

At the same time, there was a noise from the chapel.

Lindsay didn't see the old woman, so she walked over to the chapel.

The old woman was standing in the chapel.

In front of her, a plainly dressed man and an old woman were talking, with a yellow wooden coffin behind her, and a man and a woman sobbing quietly, all three of them stood in the chapel with some leaning forward momentum.

Lindsay looked closely at the plainly dressed man.

When he spoke to the old woman, he often avoided the other person's eyes, which was not a reaction of weakness or impatience, but a gesture of respect and nervousness.

The old woman was very respected by the townspeople.

Seeing this scene, Lindsay didn't dare to disturb and waited at the door.

He thought of the cemetery he had seen outside the day before yesterday.

The chapel was connected to it, and the coffin was parked in front of it, and this church was obviously dealing with the business of death, and the old woman was the nun who was in charge of it all.

This may be the reason why she is in awe.

Lindsey analyzes the current situation.

After a while, the conversation between the elderly nun and the simple man ended.

The yellow wooden coffin was placed in the center of the chapel, and the three men left the church and returned to the town.

The elderly nun circled the coffin, muttering prayers.

When the ritual was completed, she struck her right hand seven times around the coffin, clasped her hands together, and bowed in an eye-gaze salute.

He stood quietly for a moment.

She then walked down the corridor in the backyard and saw Lindsay waiting for her.

"Kid, you're still having a fever."

The elderly nun's tone was steady, without pity or blame, and everything was as calm as flowing water.

Lindsey replied earnestly:

"Mama, I have something I want to talk to you about."

The elderly nun did not refuse, but left the chapel with Lindsay:

"We can't disturb the waiting of the deceased, let's go back to the house first."

The two returned to the room where Lindsay was resting.

The elderly nun sat Lindsay on the bed while she sat on the newly added chair.

Cloudy eyes looked at Lindsay.

Lindsay understood what the other party meant by asking him to speak first, so she opened her mouth to express her thoughts:

"As you know, I'm being wanted by the Knights of the Law. This status can bring a lot of trouble, and you have saved my life, and I will definitely not be able to stay with you for long. ”

"I just beg you to let me stay for a few days, and when the fever is gone, I'll leave."

The old nun, who had been silent, suddenly spoke:

"Child, this world is far away from the world where the Capital of Law is located."

"I also want to know which direction the village of Anvil is...... Yes? Lindsay was still describing her desire to return home, but the old woman's reminder was like a thunderbolt in the sky, "This world? ”

"Wait, this world, I mean, what does this world mean?"

The sudden appearance of the noun made Lindsay a little flustered.

What is the final outcome of his hometown, whether his parents live or die, and whether Alvette defeats the Knight of the Law.

These are all questions that Lindsay can't get around.

But what did the elderly nun in front of her say?

The territory of the capital of law is not even in the same world!

If Lindsay's comprehension from compulsory education is not a problem, then this joke is a bit exaggerated.

Lindsay's nervousness did not move the elderly nun.

She continued to answer in that characteristic, calm and slow tone:

"This universe is made up of thousands of worlds. And where you are currently is the most marginal world in the known universe. ”

“……”

Lindsay wiped the door of her head, not sure if it was nervousness or sweat from the cold.

He asked the question as calmly as possible:

"Since you know the Law Capital, it means that these worlds are interconnected?"

The elderly nun continued:

"On either side of the edge of each world, the nearest other world is connected, but this is the end, so only one side connects the way back to the center of the universe."

At this time, Lindsay remembered once again what Alvette had said before sending him away.

- Absolutely safe place.

A bad feeling rose in Lindsay's heart.

He suppressed the tremor in his heart and cautiously asked:

"So through this connection, I should be able to go back too?"

The elderly nun shook her head:

"Next door to this world is a world called Montenegro."

"A terrible dragon beast has taken over Montenegro, and its dependents have cut it off from the rest of the world, and no one can go back."
