Chapter 120: Return to Lok Ma Town
The sunken eye sockets, the long dry hair, and the hands with protruding joints and dull skin, these months of restless sleep and frightened days have tortured the woman in front of him like this.
Phil's heart was very uneasy, but he didn't know how to comfort him, so he could only express his thoughts and guilt with a tight hug.
"Are your sisters alright? I want to go see them. After a few hugs, Phil asked.
"They're playing in the garden, Bertha watching. I'll bring them over after a while. Catherine said with tears in her eyes.
"I'm back, Mom, don't cry and break your eyes. "Although it is nonsense, this kind of nonsense between family members is never too much, but too little.
"Well, well, it's good to come back, it's good to come back. Catherine nodded, but tears of joy could not be stopped, leaving down her thin cheeks.
Phil wiped Catherine's tears in her pajamas, and the two sat quietly together, experiencing the joy and comfort of reuniting after a long absence.
He wanted to ask the question in his mind, but he was afraid that the answer was not what he was expecting.
In the end, it was a mother-son connection, Catherine saw that Phil wanted to speak and stopped, and took the initiative to explain it for him.
"Your father has accompanied your grandfather to the Marquis of No, and will be back before dinner.
Your grandmother is not in very good health this year, she was seriously ill a few days ago and is still resting.
You drink some milk tea first, change your clothes, and you can see them at dinner. ”
"Daddy, he's ......" Phil lowered his head, although he didn't want Catherine to be sad again, but he didn't hold back and asked.
Catherine touched her son's face over and over again, and said angrily: "That hand is broken when it is broken, if it is not him, how can such a thing happen to you." ”
"Hehe" Phil looked at Catherine's fierce appearance amusedly, feeling that it was good to be home.
In the past month or so long, he has dreamed of the moment in front of him countless times, which is so good.
"Don't worry, Edward has survived. It's just not suitable for a bumpy journey, and he's still recuperating from his injuries in Luoma Town, and you'll be able to see him when you go back. Needless to ask, Catherine continued.
Coming back to Horse Town, going back to that place? Phil was a little unsure.
These days, he has been running away, not wanting to think about that home, and the people there, especially that little figure.
She had also prayed for the return of her family, but ......
That afternoon, the brave and generous figure on the edge of the cliff will forever remain in his memory, indelible.
The debt of human affection is the most difficult to repay, not to mention that this is not a favor, but a fresh human life.
Compared to that, the little things Phil and Catherine had done for the Stewart family before were nothing to mention.
Speaking of Fallen Horse Town, Catherine was also silent, and she didn't know how to comfort her, so she could only hug Phil's much thinner body and sit there with him.
"By the way, that little friend of yours, is it called Lin Yun?" In order to resolve this sadness, Catherine began to tease her son, and the naughty big demon king seemed to be back.
"Where's she?
"Hehe, it's very good. This little girl is so amazing that even your father is full of praise. ”
"Daddy?" Phil was a little confused.
"yes, you don't know. Jones and Paul got there first, and when they found your little cave, the little girl kept her dagger on you, and wouldn't let anyone touch you.
Even if you are caught, you will still bite people, like a little beast, very fierce.
If it weren't for seeing your father's similar appearance to you, she would have tossed it.
Your father also found that there was a wild cat lying at the scene, which seemed to have just died, and its tail was two feet long.
The heart is fatal, it's hard for her, and she even fights for her life to protect you, and she herself is scratched by claws and wounds everywhere.
When they arrived, the little girl was peeling her fur, and she seemed to be very skillful. ”
Parents are like this, no matter what others do, it seems that it is for their children, and it is a matter of course.
At dinner, Phil finally met the whole family.
Brad was still strong, but noticeably older, and his beard was gray.
Jane's face didn't look good, which made Phil a little worried.
There were only two people who impressed Fill.
One was his father, Matthew, who wore a pair of prosthetic limbs at the end of his severed arm.
The prosthetic leg is very well made, it looks lifelike, it feels soft to the touch, it is very similar to natural flesh and skin, and I don't know what material is used.
But Matthew's wound was still a little itchy, and he wasn't used to it, so he took it off when he got home.
Seeing that he was missing an arm, Phil's eyes tingled a little, and he wanted to cry inexplicably.
In exchange for a warm hug from Matthew, this time Phil also hugged back tightly, refusing to let go.
The other person is Lin Yun.
When Phil first saw him, if it weren't for the hanging arm, he couldn't believe that the handsome little beauty in front of him was the skinny tomboy he had known for more than a month.
The forehead is full, the eyebrows are like a crescent moon, the tip of the nose is straight, the eyes are flowing like water, and the lovely lying silkworm is pure and exquisite.
"You're wearing makeup, what's your hair growing?" Phil was a little curious.
Yun'er seemed a little shy and nervous, especially in front of so many people, and it was still a little uncomfortable to talk to Phil like this.
You know, a few days ago, she was a wild girl who grew up in a group of thieves, and she had never seen such a beautiful place and such a graceful and luxurious person.
"Madame helped me get my hair and put on a little makeup. I've seen Alexandra transform once before, but it's not as good-looking as anyone here.
By the way, Mrs. also gave me two sets of clothes, and I said no, but Mrs. said that it was specially made for me, and it would be wasted if I didn't wear them. ”
It can be seen that the little girl is still a little timid, and her weak appearance is completely no longer brave and spicy when she was brave and fierce when she fought the cat.
Phil persuaded, "Don't worry, this is just the beginning, there are many more to come." ”
"But you can't work in this dress, it's going to get dirty. Yun'er is still a little uneasy.
What is the work? Phil didn't get it.
But he quickly reacted, and said with a smile: "We don't have to work anymore, just eat well, study well, and be so beautiful forever." ”
"That's not going to work, it's useless if you don't work, you're going to starve. ”
The time is too short, Yun'er obviously has not adapted to her new identity, and her life in the past ten years has made some concepts deeply rooted and not so easy to change.
Phil was not in a hurry, patted the little girl's hand, showed that everything was with him, and then examined the scar on her neck.
Several slender wounds, which should have been treated with divine magic, have healed, revealing a reddish color.
One of them was quite deep and covered with gauze, but it should be the best wound medicine that would not leave a scar in the future.
Phil stroked it gently in distress, his eyes red.
Not to mention the whispering and muttering of the two villains, the adults on the throne also informed Phil of his future fate before the end of dinner.
From now on, Phil would go to school in Gokan City, and Catherine and others moved their families here.
With Phil's excellent academic performance, there will be no problem at all.
But before that, he, Catherine, Matthew, and Mathieu will come back to Ponyville once to deal with the things there.
The Ancestral Continent, the Principality of Myadas, one of the small principalities attached to the Sanctuary, is in the central square of the capital, in a temple with a very different shape.
The owner of the palace, who had a stunning glimpse of the desert, was standing on the observation deck at the top of the temple, admiring the appearance of the devout believers outside in a circle and worshipping him.
A smile appeared on the handsome face, and he seemed to be very satisfied with this scene.
If you look closely, you will see that the height of this observation deck is much higher than all the buildings in view, and even a little higher than the golden dome of the palace in the distance.
"My lord, the gift from the southeast has arrived. "It's still the slender man like a servant, standing in front of the door and reporting.
"Then send it in. The master of the palace returned to the room, took off his robes, revealed his slender and sturdy body, and lay down in a huge bath carved and polished from white jade.
Immersed his whole body, including the top of his head, in the water, he resurfaced after a while, and sighed: "It's still comfortable in the parish, the damn desert is going to roast me dry." ”
Then he took the box in the man's hand and opened it to look at it.
The black box was divided into two compartments, each containing a medicinal herb.
