Chapter 65: Lucy's Heart
After Ryder left, Lianhua and Liao didn't continue to sleep, they had slept enough that day.
"I'm going for a walk. Lianhua stood up, sleeping for so long, he wanted to move his shins.
"Okay, I'll accompany you. Liao hurriedly got up.
Lianhua ignored him, put his hands in his trouser pockets, and walked away, he knew that even if he rejected Li Ao, he would follow himself. Since there is no difference between saying it and not saying it, then simply don't say it.
Sure enough, after Liao put Ryder's coat on his body and put it on Jane's body, he followed with "hee~".
Lianhua and Liao walked side by side like this, their speed was not fast, it was more like a walk. Outside the church, the traces of their battle with Negoma are still there, only the foul of fishy green water has been disposed of by someone, looking at the pits of different shades on the ground, the scenes of the previous battle come to mind, vividly.
"I didn't expect that we could really beat that old man. Liao sighed.
"yes. Lianhua nodded.
"Hua, what would you do if you met that old man alone?" Li Ao suddenly turned his head to look at Lianhua, and asked without a beginning or a tail.
"Run. Lianhua didn't think about it and blurted it out directly.
"Hahaha~" Li Ao laughed out loud without giving face, but he stopped laughing for a while, and said with an extremely serious expression, "I can also run, there is no difference between not running and waiting for death, I don't want to die yet!"
“...”
"It's still not strong enough!" Li Ao clenched his hands into fists and looked up at the night sky.
"Let's work together. ”
"Okay, let's work together to get stronger!" Li Ao smiled, raised his hands in fists above his head, and shouted into the night sky.
Under the same night sky, next to the carriage rented by Lianhua in Fogg Village, Lucy was holding her cheeks, looking at the bonfire in a daze, the flames in the bonfire kept beating, and slowly turned into a vague figure in Lucy's eyes, "It's the 6th day, Lianhua has no news at all, and I don't know what's going on?" hey~" The blurred figure became clearer and clearer, and even the cold eyes were clearly visible.
When Lianhua and they left, they asked the old woman to help take care of Lucy, the old woman has lived for most of her life, she is an understanding person, she knows very well what Lianhua is going to do, and naturally takes care of Lucy very much. After going back and forth, I got acquainted with Lucy, and once I was familiar with the old woman, how could I not see that Lucy was actually a daughter, so I took better care of her. The old woman found that since Lianhua and the others left, Lucy would often sit alone in a daze, sitting by the carriage during the day and watching the bonfire in a daze at night. This hair is a long time, and the whole person is completely out of state.
Seeing that Lucy was in a daze again, the old woman walked over with a cane and sat down beside Lucy, "Oh~ why are you in a daze again? Why are you so young that you are always in a daze? What are you thinking? Tell me about my mother-in-law." ”
"No, mother-in-law," Lucy came back to her senses and shook her head at the old woman sitting beside her.
"Girl, you can't hide it from your mother-in-law. ”
"Ah~" Lucy snorted softly, "Mother-in-law, you know!"
"Hehe~ Mother-in-law's eyes are not blind, how can you not see that you are a daughter? You don't have to worry, although I don't understand why you want to dress up as a man, but you must have a reason why you do this, mother-in-law, I won't ask. The old woman took Lucy's hand and said in a serious voice.
"Thank you, mother-in-law, I'm sorry," Lucy smiled apologetically, sticking out her tongue mischievously at the old woman.
"Hehe~ My mother-in-law has been in a daze these days, and you are in a trance, is there something wrong? The old woman asked, patting Lucy's hand.
Lucy was a little embarrassed to speak, she couldn't say that she was thinking about a man just now, it was too embarrassing. Lucy's face turned red involuntarily as she thought about it, and she looked very bright around the campfire.
"Are you wondering..."
"No, I'm not thinking about Lianhua. Lucy blurted out in a hurry.
"Hahaha~" The old woman was amused by Lucy's appearance.
"No, no, no," Lucy said with a quick wave of her hand, her face instantly like a ripe apple.
"Hahaha~ Silly child, what's embarrassing about liking someone. The old woman looked at Lucy and said kindly. "You're still a young man!"
"Oops ~ Mother-in-law ~"
"Mother-in-law, I'm a person from here. Lianhua~Oh~ Is it the young man who is dressed in black and wrapped in a black cloak?" the old woman asked after thinking for a while.
"Hmm. Lucy blushed and nodded slightly.
"Oh~ This guy looks good, tall and handsome, but it's a little cool, not very close to people. ”
"yes, he's always been like this," Lucy nodded helplessly.
Seeing that Lucy was a little lost, the old woman patted her hand lightly and said, "Girl, you heard your mother-in-law say that your own happiness should be in your own hands, and it is useless to rely on anyone." ”
"Well, I know," Lucy nodded, but she couldn't be happy in her heart, she was not an ordinary person after all, her marriage and her love could never be as free and romantic as ordinary people. The reason why I quarreled with my father this time and came out to relax, it has something to do with it. It's just that she couldn't tell the old woman about this, and the mood she was shy and happy just now was washed away by these things.
"What's the matter, girl?" the old woman asked with concern when she saw Lucy with a sad face, "Wasn't this okay just now?
"It's okay, it's okay, mother-in-law, thank you for speaking with me. Lucy hurriedly put away her sadness and waved her hand.
"You kid, what do you say..."
On the roof of a small building not far from the carriage, a dark figure stood under the night sky, staring at Lucy, but he was motionless, letting the night breeze blow the hem of his clothes. The black shadow is none other than Mu who was asked by Lianhua to stay behind to protect Lucy's safety, and Mu has been secretly watching Lucy for the past few days.
A black paper crow appeared under the night sky and flew in the direction of Mu. "Shadow Crow?" Mu recognized the paper crow at a glance, and hurriedly reached out to catch it and unfold it, "Young Master has news?"
The pure black paper reads, "Kasro City, you can go on the road." ”
After Mu finished reading it, he turned the paper back into the crow and flew in the direction of Lucy.
The black paper crow drew a perfect arc in the air and landed firmly in Lucy's arms, "Huh?" Lucy, who was chatting with the old woman, looked at the paper crow in her arms suspiciously, and then raised her head and looked around, "Where did this come from?"
"Look at what is written on it. The old woman reminded from the side.
"Oh, yes. Saying that, Lucy hurriedly unfolded the paper crow, "Kasro City, you can go on the road." These words caught her eye. can write such simple and blunt words, Lucy doesn't even think about it to know that it is Lianhua, thinking of Lianhua, the corners of Lucy's mouth unconsciously feel slightly upturned.
"What's the matter? What is written on this paper, look at you. ”
"It's nothing, mother-in-law, the matter of Kasro City should be settled, and I will leave tomorrow. Lucy said to the old woman with a smile.
"Really?" the old woman's voice suddenly raised a little, and her expression was a little excited.
"Well, really. Lucy nodded affirmatively.
"Good, good, good. The old woman stood up excitedly, "I'll go with you." ”
"Well, then mother-in-law, you have to rest early, and we will leave early tomorrow morning. ”
"Mother-in-law, let's go rest, let's rest. So saying, the old woman had already left on crutches, and she had not taken her head back.
Lucy smiled sweetly at the old woman's back and got into the carriage.
