Chapter 66: Looks Like You've Decided
"Yes, that's right, that's ......"
In the shelter of the rolling loess, a middle-aged man with an elegant temperament is standing at the end of the road.
He held a dusty rag doll in his hand, which looked as if it had been created a long time ago, and the original bright and bright clothes were already covered with dust, and the wide skirt was only half a small part.
Only the doll's button-like eyes still glowed strangely softly.
Holding the doll in his hand, the middle-aged man looked at his opposite side with relief.
Directly in front of him, a blonde girl was slowly walking towards him, cautiously and step by step.
The girl looked like she was only eleven or twelve years old, and she was still a child, but her eyes were unexpectedly resolute, like an adult who had gone through a lot.
She seemed to have a big problem with her legs, and her stride was very small when she moved forward. And every time her toes touched the ground, a palpable pain flashed across her face.
This is also normal.
After all, it is a miracle that a girl of normal size falls from the "sky" and does not die.
Yes.
The girl in front of her was the one who fell from the shadow of the Glass City in the air not long ago.
And standing opposite her is the well-deserved "big brother" of this refuge - "Hunter" Yamashita.
Smiling at the girl who was constantly working the other side, Yamashita's expression was as relieved as that of an old father.
Since he received this child, he has really taken care of her like a father. Treat her, relieve her boredom, and take her out to relieve the depression in her heart.
Although the girl was very defensive about Yamashita at first, the attitude of the middle-aged man in front of her was too sincere, and it seemed that there were really no other plans, so the girl gradually opened her heart.
She tells Yamashita that her name is "Alice".
It was driven out of the "fairyland".
But why was she kicked out, and what kind of place was the fairyland, she never wanted to say a word.
As if she still has nostalgia for that place, even though the mountain seems so gentle, the girl still has a trace of anticipation in her heart for the former "home".
No one would tell anyone else about their home unless that person really deserves to be trusted in all directions.
Of course, Yamashita doesn't care about this.
He just patted the other person on the head and announced to the others that Alice would be the one who would be his daughter.
"I will treat her with all my heart and treat her as if she were my own daughter."
Yamashita said solemnly: "Anyone who dares to do anything to her is challenging me!" β
As soon as this statement came out.
The audience was in an uproar.
Yamashita's declaration not only stunned the people of the Faith Society, but also shocked the people in the other shelters outside.
Although they knew that Yamashita wanted to accept a righteous son, they never thought that he would accept a daughter.
"Righteous son" is good to say, after all, if the child is raised, he may not be able to become an heir. But a daughter......
Although it is not a refuge without female leaders, in this place full of blood and carnage, a girl who looks weak and delicate......
Almost everyone thinks that Yamashita is planning to do some new play.
Or maybe it's quite forbidden.
But Yamashita has always treated Alice like a real daughter.
As if he had really become an old father, Yamashita would dedicate all his time to his "daughter" in his spare time.
It's like now, for the sake of rebuilding his daughter's legs, he has put down the tedious work at hand and specially freed up some space in the shelter.
As Alice gradually walked up to him.
The smile in Yamashita's eyes couldn't be stopped.
He handed the rag doll in his hand to Alice: "Here, this is your reward for your efforts." β
In his hands, the rag doll, though ugly, still looked at Alice with bright eyes.
And Alice happily took the doll.
Although this doll is really ugly, it was given to her by her own "father" and is worth cherishing.
Yamashita then reached out and hugged Alice in his lap.
And Alice also obediently leaned against the body under the mountain.
At this moment, the two of them really look a bit like a father and daughter.
After a long time, Alice looked up.
"Father," her voice was childish, but the way she asked was precocious, "why are you so nice to me?" β
Because she once fell from the glass city in the sky, although Alice's age does not seem to be large, her psychology is not naΓ―ve at all.
But even so, she is still a child after all.
She could feel Yamashita's sincerity towards her, and this gentle attitude was something she had never experienced before, it was the care of a "loved one".
And in Liuli City, she had never felt similar emotions.
Therefore, as a child who lacks love, she feels like a "father's love" here at the foot of the mountain.
That's why she opened up to the man in front of her so quickly.
But she was also a little apprehensive like the people outside.
Why should his "father" be so good to himself, the person who suddenly appeared?
And for this question.
With a smile at the bottom of the mountain, he said in a nostalgic voice, "Dad's reason? It's actually quite simple. β
"Because all this between you and your father is destiny."
He stretched out his hand and rubbed Alice's hair: "Originally, Dad wanted to find a child, and then you appeared, and it was as pure as crystal, perfect for my wishes, of course Dad is very happy." β
"And it's like a turning point of fate for Dad, although Dad was okay before that, but something was missing. And after seeing you, Dad decided what was missing. β
Staring into Alice's eyes, Yamashita's voice softened: "That's a 'home', a 'harbor'." β
Look into the eyes of the mountain.
Alice felt that there was no reason, and what the other party said was true.
And this just hit the softest place in her heart.
To this day, Alice is still attached to Wonderland, the home she considers home.
And Yamashita also found himself in search of a home.
Maybe it's really as he said, this is the fate of heaven. Two people who have left home are destined to gradually walk together because of their longing for that warm place, and they will support them like father and daughter.
Thinking so, Alice reached out and gently hugged Yamashita.
And her father hugged her.
Then he patted her on the shoulder twice.
It was like weighing her heart.
ββ
Look at the girl who has fallen asleep.
The smile on Yamashita's face faded.
He picked up the rag doll and held out his hand.
Pulled the two bright buttons off the baby's face roughly: "This emotional 'poison' is completely enough." β
Putting the two back on his collar, Yamashita straightened his clothes.
Then he slowly retreated from the room.
At this time, there was already a little brother waiting for him outside the door, with a strange spray in his hand.
Looking at the little brother, Yamashita whispered, "Continue to increase the dose." β
Hearing this, the little brother nodded.
Then use the sprayer in your hand to continue spreading it into the room.
A puff of pink smoke slowly filled the room.
They slowly swelled and headed for the little girl's nose, gradually submerging into her body.
And as the smoke filled, a happy smile gradually appeared on the girl's face.
Looking at the scene in front of him, Yamashita bowed slightly: "Not bad." β
"In that case, it won't be long before she becomes my 'daughter' completely."
Looking at the sky outside the shelter, Yamashita sighed leisurely: "I want to find a seed whose mind is so stupid, like a seed that has never experienced suffering, but it is quite scarce." β
So he didn't cheat on Alice before.
He really treats her like a daughter.
Because such a daughter can bring him endless benefits.
To be honest, Yamashita originally felt quite tricky.
After all, there are not many suitable candidates who can meet his "triangle" criteria.
But I didn't expect a girl to fall from the sky.
When he saw that girl, Yamashita was sure that it was the perfect person.
The reason is simple.
The child was obviously kicked out, which means that her heart is very vacant at the moment. And being kicked out also means that she has nothing else to rely on.
This means that she is a "blank slate" existence.
What's more, when she woke up later, her clear stupidity also made Yamashita realize that this child might really have lived in an ivory tower in the past.
And such an existence is almost impossible to find in today's wasteland.
But at the same time, she is also the most suitable target to participate in her own projects.
"It is very likely that such an individual will make a contract with the truth, after all, the truth seems to be more inclined to make a contract with the object of order."
Hurrying to a certain room, Yamashita lowered his head and thought: "And if such a guy is emotionally invested, he will never betray me." So it also means that if I have a good relationship with her, then she is also willing to rely on the truth for my benefit. β
In this way, you will be able to get more than just a way to hide from Anubis.
If the time comes.
Then relying on Alice, Yamashita can take a detour to get the forbidden knowledge he wants from the truth!
Thinking of this, Yamashita took a deep breath.
The only pity is that Alice has not fully trusted him for the time being.
She still has a nostalgia for that fairyland.
And Yamashita couldn't force her to act.
So now we can only wait.
Touching his chest, Yamashita's eyes were dark.
"Still have to look for ...... That guy? β
In a muffled wheezing voice.
Eventually, Yamashita reached out.
Then according to the "ritual" that the guy gave himself before, he began to decorate.
While arranging, Yamashita was thoughtful: "The ceremony that needs to be held in front of the mirror ......"
This guy is really arrogant.
While arranging the things at hand.
A moment later, when that bizarre ritual took shape.
The invisible Qi began to surge, and I don't know where it began to spread, slowly stirring the air in front of it.
When the surrounding air flow is completely intensified.
The scene in front of me seemed to change again.
When the mountain head was raised.
The next second, he found that he was no longer in the sunny house.
Instead, he was back in the ...... that he had fled so desperately and scarlet as he had fled not long ago. Spooky world!
The bones are white, and the carrion is piled up like a mountain. The flames burned, and the dead wailed miserably in the bottomless pits.
And in front of that massive, foul-smelling mountain of Roshan.
A smiling voice echoed in the ears of the mountain below.
"Looks like you've made your decision?"
Listening to this voice, Yamashita raised his head and followed the sound to look over.
In front of the rotten and foul-smelling, fly-ridden mountain of Roth.
Xu Xiangyang's pale face, the smile that made the mountain extremely jealous was aroused little by little.
