Chapter 841: Wake Up
Gilgamesh's head was still drowsy, and he didn't have any special feelings after listening to the old man's words, so he looked around a little, only to feel that his eyelids were getting heavier and heavier, and he didn't know when he fell asleep again.
Lilia Marie on the side was a little worried and measured the temperature of Gilgamesh's forehead with her hand, the temperature was not very hot, it seemed that the previous fever was better.
"Don't worry, his body is not as strong as it can be, and it only took about ten days for multiple fractures all over his body to heal, which is already a miracle, and now he is just very tired in the recovery stage, and it is not a big problem. β
The old man was equally worried, but he was not as worried as Lilia Marie, he was worried about where Gilgamesh came from.
"People who can have this kind of physical fitness are definitely not ordinary people, I believe you will not understand this truth, even in such deep mountains has not been peaceful recently...... Please be careful. β
Lilia Marie was surprised by the old man's pestering nagging, she also knew that the old man was very right, the origin was unknown and he was obviously not an ordinary person, and letting such a guy in the village was likely to bring unpredictable disasters to the village, but even if she knew this, she could not turn a blind eye to those in need.
"I know you're right, but if you don't die, you're going against God's teachings and against what I've always believed. β
- Haven't you already violated that kind of thing a long time ago?!, the old man couldn't say such things, as he was helped by Lilia Marie in the most difficult moments, like Gilgamesh, and he was dependent on Lilia Marie's gentleness, and he was not in that position to blame Lilia Marie.
So, the old man could only smile wryly and nod to Lilia Marie, and picked up the medicine jar on the ground.
"I'll go boil some medicine again. β
The old man has a sense of shame and knows how to repay the favor, so helping this kind girl unconditionally in Lilia Marie's time of need is the only way he can repay it.
When Gilgamesh opened her eyes again, it was already night, and the long sleep she had had prevented her from feeling the time.
"βahem. β
His throat was smoky as if it had been roasted by fire, and he tried to reach for the glass of water on the bedside table as he usually did, but he rolled out of bed, and only then did he remember that it was not his room.
Hearing the commotion, Lilia Marie hurriedly pushed open the door and rushed in, covered in a simple blanket over her home clothes.
"Are you alright?"
Helping Gilgamesh back to the bed, Lilia Marie tested Gilgamesh's temperature.
"It looks like the temperature has completely subsided, which is great. β
Unable to see it now, Marie Lilia still remembers the first time she saw Gilgamesh, with slight burns all over her body, multiple fractures from a fall from a great height, and extensive bruises under her skin. To be honest, if Gilgamesh wasn't still breathing at the time, she would have disposed of Gilgamesh as a corpse.
After bringing Gilgamesh back to the village, everyone was shocked, most of them had never seen such a serious injury, and they thought that he would not live for a day, and even the precious medicine that had bandaged him was only because of Lilia Marie's request. Unexpectedly, Gilgamesh's body began to heal the next day, and even the worst internal bleeding was healing on its own.
And in just fifteen days, Gilgamesh's body was fine, and the only thing left was that consciousness had not recovered for the time being.
"I'm Lilia Marie, what's your name, where are you from?"
Lilia Marie held out her hand towards Gilgamesh.
Despite Lilia Marie's lack of hostility, Gilgamesh shrank inward as she shifted her stiff body, a knee-jerk motion of fear that remained in her mind.
Lilia Marie's outstretched hand paused slightly, and in the midst of Gilgamesh's wary gaze, she brought a chair in from outside the house and sat down more than a meter away from Gilgamesh.
"Would you like to hear me about what happened lately? β
Gilgamesh nodded, and Lilia Marie began to tell the story of the time Gilgamesh was found.
"You mean I've been in a coma for half a month?"
It was like a sleep for Gilgamesh, and he wouldn't have believed it if it weren't for the stiffness of his body.
"So, what about the war? Which side won the war? What happened to the Holy See army now?"
The overly enthusiastic attitude did not make Lilia Marie impatient, and she waited for Gilgamesh to calm down a little before answering.
"Unfortunately, I don't know about the war, but we have been hiding in the mountains for more than a month not long after the war began. β
Seeing that Gilgamesh became silent after hearing this, Lilia Marie held out her hand again.
"You haven't told me your name yet. β
This time, Gilgamesh shook Lilia Marie's hand after a moment of contemplation.
"Jill...... No, call me Zhang Yao. β
After saying that, he scratched his hair a little embarrassedly, felt the greasy feel of the hair that was about to clump, and bowed his head slightly towards Lilia Marie.
"Sorry...... I'm sorry for your trouble....... β
Lilia Marie didn't care much about it, but she felt that Zhang Yao was a little awkward, but she still wanted to apologize as bluntly as possible, which was a little cute, and she couldn't help but want to bully her.
"That's the time to say thank you. β
Zhang Yao thought about it right, so he changed his words and thanked him again, and this time Lilia Marie laughed.
"You don't have to be so polite, you have to help each other when it's difficult, right?"
It's like a gentle smile that comes out of bringing kindness together, and it's not particularly beautiful but it makes people feel warm.
Zhang Yao accidentally blushed and tried to bury his face in order to cover up.
"And I'm sorry that you didn't get a good night's sleep in the middle of the night. β
This time Lilia Marie was not polite, she nodded with a straight face.
"It's true, I could have slept a little if it weren't for you. β
Lilia Marie's face changed so quickly that Zhang Yao was a little caught off guard, and he could only watch in amazement as Lilia Marie walked to the window, gently pushed away the straw used to replace the glass, and the next moment the faint sunlight shone into the room.
The morning sun is not dazzling, Zhang Yao's somewhat weak eyes can also see the golden edges drawn by the sun on the ridge, and the sky in the distance has just appeared white, looking like day and night have been fused together.
"But so it's a good deal to see this, so let's even pull it off. β
Lilia Marie is as beautiful as the rising sun behind her.
