Chapter 68: Reina's Past (1)
"Helloβ"
At this time, Chu Yi, who was following Xia Lan to practice swordsmanship, sneezed.
"Hey! First! You're messing around! 1 hour more stop! Xia Lan shouted at Chu Yi, who was holding his sword and posing in a battle posture
"Huh? I don't know if that guy scolded me......" Chu Yi said innocently
"Tsk...... I'm laughing to death......" Hongyan said with a light smile on the side
"Hey! Is Xia Lan here? Come out! A woman's voice came from outside, and Xia Lan immediately opened the door to check after hearing it.

"I don't have a key!"
After opening the door, a girl walked in, she had beautiful long pink hair, a bag in her left hand, a suitcase in her right hand, sunglasses, a large gold chain around her neck, chewing gum in her mouth, wearing denim shorts and a vest printed with a bear pattern, very trendy.
"Oh! It's Reina! Touring back? Xia Lan asked with a smile
"Give me the key! Don't sell it, drag the luggage very heavy! Reina said
"Who is she?" Chu Yi took advantage of Xia Lan's inattention and secretly whispered in Hongyan's ear.
"I don't know......"
"As an apprentice, why do you talk to the master like this?" Xia Lan said to Reina
"Don't be verbose, uncle! You're not a kid of a few years old, give me the key, I want to see my love knife! Reina impatiently asked Xia Lan for the key.
"Okay, good, you're high, you're amazing! I really taught the apprentice, starved to death the master......" Xia Lan said as she handed the key to Reina.
"I'll give you a gift when I see my knife, if it's a little damaged or scratched...... You'll just wait and see! After saying that, Rena dragged her suitcase and left.
"Master Xia Lan, who is she?" When Xia Lan came back, he asked in the first day of junior high school
"She's my apprentice, Reina. She lost her parents when she was a child, and Reina and her sister lived together, and one day after she was a child, her sister went out to look for food for her, and she stayed in a dilapidated abandoned house, only to be suddenly barged in by a group of human traffickers and taken her away, never to see her sister again......"
"It's miserable...... So how did she become your apprentice? Hongyan asked
"When I was young, I was a wandering swordsman, wandering around the world, looking for interesting things, but I ...... 10 years ago"
ββββ the island of Nix, a country of Sicily ten years ago
At that time, Xia Lan was in his 20s, and his dream was to travel all over the world, find what he liked, and become the greatest swordsman.
But one day, when he arrives on Nix Island, he happens to encounter a black human trafficking ship, and he is hiding behind a boulder to observe.
"The goods are coming!!"
A guard with a gun on the island shouted, and a bunch of people and a large truck ran out from behind.
"There's a lot of goods today!" An old man with a fox orc got out of the black boat and told the guard
"I understand, bring it!"
A man next to him took out a box, and when he opened it, the light emitted almost blinded the old fox.
"It's the Salatu Magic Stone, it's priceless, so... What about your cargo? The guard asked, closing the box
"In the back!" The old fox pointed to a group of people behind him, who were pulling a large iron cage out of the black boat, and several people stepped forward and looked at the unconscious girls, all of whom were dirty and pale, and who were obviously in great pain on the black boat.
"Why are there so many dying people? In this way, how can we explain to Brother Kurokawa Yu? The caretaker asked
"I sent it...... These dying ones are for regular customers...... Hey, hey, hey......" the old fox laughed
ββ¦β¦ Let's deliver it! β
Just as the guard handed over the old fox magic stone, a voice quickly flew and took the magic stone from the guard's hand.
"Who! Daring! "The guards took up their weapons, guns, swords, sticks, everything.
"You're a little immoral! kidnapping girls from other countries to sell them in neighboring countries...... It's really worse than demons, you ......," Xia Lan said to the traffickers as she sat on the roof of the truck with the box
"Grandma's, fire!" The guards with guns all shot at Xia Lan, and after a while, the head of the truck was beaten into a hornet's nest.
I said...... Have you ever heard of heroes saving beauty? Girls seem to like heroes! Before the guards could even react, Xia Lan had already dealt with several of them, and the knife in his hand was dripping with blood, which made the other guards with melee weapons dare not step forward at all.
"Who are you? How much money do you want? I can give it to you, so don't ......" The old fox seemed to want to communicate with Xia Lan, but before he finished speaking, his fox head fell to the ground. Xia Lan picked up his head and raised it high, he roared at the others, "Hurry up and release these girls for me!" Otherwise, you'll all die! β
"Yes!"
The frightened guards immediately picked up the key and opened the iron cage and rescued all the girls who had been abducted.
"That...... Big brother, that's all, can we go? The guard asked tremblingly
"Let's go? Who allowed you to go? β
Xia Lan put all the people involved in the abduction incident in an iron cage and reported it to the local police, and after a while, the police came to the scene, and after confirming the matter, the police all took off their hats and thanked Xia Lan.
"Thank you, sir, we haven't caught this criminal gang for a long time, I didn't expect you to be so skilled, sir!" Said the policeman
"It's just a gesture, and I can't get used to this kind of bastard!" Xia Lan said
"Yes sir, we will definitely punish these bastards, as for these girls, we will call the embassies of various countries to meet them, you can rest assured!" Said the policeman
"Well, thank you, then I'll go first!"
Just as Xia Lan was about to leave, a pink-haired woman ran out of the crowd of trafficked girls, this was Ling Na when she was a child, and she ran forward and hugged Xia Lan tightly.
"Hey, what are you doing? Go back to your mom and dad with the police! Xia Lan was overwhelmed.
"Little sister, we'll take you back to find your parents!" The policeman enthusiastically stepped forward to help Xia Lan pull the little girl away, but she hugged her tighter instead.
"Don't ...... Mom and Dad and my sister...... Already...... You don't want me anymore......" Xiao Lingna buried her head in Xia Lan's waist and cried, which made Xia Lan even more overwhelmed, after all, he was a swordsman who had been wandering for more than 20 years, where had he ever encountered such a thing.
"Otherwise, comrade policeman, let me take her back, it will not be easy to deal with for a while, and you can't get in the way of official business." Xia Lan said
"Okay, be careful, sir!" After the police finished speaking, they took the girls and the traffickers and left, and Xia Lan also took Xiao Lingna to a small restaurant, Xia Lan ordered a big push of food for her, and Xiao Lingna, who had not eaten for a long time, immediately devoured so many delicacies when she saw them.
"Eat slowly, no one will rob you!" Xia Lan said
"Jiejie Pig (thank you, uncle), don't have a drop of gray cloth (I will definitely repay you)!" Xiao Rena said while eating
"You're stuffing it in your mouth after eating! Don't choke here! Also, I'm only in my 20s, and I'm called Uncle Chicken Feather? Xia Lan said
"Okay Uncle Feather!" Xiao Rena shouted
"Uh...... What is your name? Xia Lan asked
"Reina ......"
"Reina... Where is your home? I'll send you home after dinner! Xia Lan said
"......" Xiao Rena, who was still showing off her food in the last second, suddenly stopped, and after she swallowed the food in her mouth, tears began to appear in the corners of her eyes again.
"I ...... No more home...... My sister doesn't want me anymore...... Woo ......," Reina cried
"Hey, hey, hey! Don't cry! It's easy to misunderstand you like this! Xia Lan was so frightened that she hurriedly comforted Xiao Lingnai.
"Uncle...... Can I follow you? You look like a good person......" Reina asked after wiping away her tears
"Follow me? Do you know what I do? I don't even have a job, how can I support you? Xia Lan said
"Rena will work to support herself! My sister taught me to do housework! Xiao Rena said
"Ah...... It's hard for me to do it like this......" Xia Lan was almost confused by Xiao Lingnai's toss.
"That's right! I have to fight those monsters and bad guys every day! Aren't you afraid they'll eat you? Xia Lan wanted to scare the little girl in front of her home with a scare method, but not only did she not scare, but it aroused her interest even more.
"Really? Reina also wants to fight the bad guys! Xiao Lingna's eyes lit up and said
"Tsk...... I was thinking that the hero would save the beauty...... I didn't expect to be targeted by a little kid...... My damn charm......"
In the end, Xia Lan was helpless, and he couldn't leave Ling Nai alone, so he had to take Ling Nai to start a life of wandering the world.
The two of them first came to the beach for tonight's dinner, and after making sufficient preparations, the two headed towards the sea.
"Don't go too deep! It's not fun to wait until you drown! Xia Lan said
"Oh! Good! β
"That's for today's dinner! Let's start catching fish! β
"Oh!"
"Hey, look at those two wild men, they're catching fish here!" Passerby A playing on the beach said
"It's barbaric......" said passerby B
Xia Lan and Reina caught it until the evening, and finally sat down on the beach, Xia Lan lit a bonfire, and roasted on the beach with Reina and caught fish in the sea.
"Uh...... Although there are only 2 of them, they can also top their stomachs! Xia Lan smiled awkwardly and said
"Reina was very full just now, not very hungry!" Xiao Rena said
"Uh... I'm hungry! You little girl ate my food money for three days! Xia Lan complained in her heart
"Rena wants to be stronger, will my uncle teach me?" Xiao Rena asked as she ate grilled fish
"Getting stronger? What do you want? Xia Lan asked
"I want to be like my uncle! Beat the bad guys to the bottom of the blood! Xiao Rena said excitedly
"You want me to teach you...... Do you call the master first? Xia Lan hesitated for a while and said
"Master!"
