Starting from the Dragon Tribe

Lu Lin wanted to refuse, but Lu Chen directly stuffed the buttery end of the rye bread into her mouth.

"I've been hungry for a long time, so I shouldn't eat too much. Sister, please eat."

Lu Chen found a reason.

In fact, with his current situation, he no longer needs to rely on food to replenish his physical strength.

Of course, there is energy between heaven and earth in the Land Abandoned by God, but the energy similar to spiritual energy is relatively thin, which is enough to supply daily needs.

When Lu Lin saw that her brother had not only regained consciousness but was also so considerate, she no longer refused and savored the fragrance of the cream.

She ate slowly. After finishing the piece of rye bread with a lot of butter, Lu Lin put the piece of potato she had not eaten yet on Lu Chen's plate.

The two smiled at each other and cleared the food from their plates.

When the remaining rye bread was almost finished, Lu Lin carefully wiped off the butter on the plate with a small piece of rye bread and put it into her mouth, her face showing the satisfaction of being full. The pale face also regained some color.

She looked at Lu Chen, who was sitting there intact, and felt unreal for a moment, as if her brother was actually gone and the other person was a figment of her imagination.

Lu Lin stood up and put away the plates. Since there were no complicated dishes, she simply rinsed the cream off the plates and put them in the closet.

She looked back at Lu Chen, who seemed to be in a daze, and whispered, "I'm sorry."

Lu Chen was stunned for a moment, not understanding what this meant. Did Lu Lin feel sorry for her predecessor? What a wonderful sister.

"No...it's nothing. You must be very tired after being outside for a few days. Let's rest early."

Lu Lin's eyes flashed with panic and she turned around.

She originally thought that her brother would disappear and leave because what she did that night three days ago was discovered by the other party.

Lu Chen was a little confused, but he didn't ask any questions. He sat by the still-warm stove, quietly thinking about the things he should prioritize in understanding the world.

Lu Lin turned off the kerosene lamp, opened the door, took toiletries, and went to the shared bathroom, preparing to wash up and start resting. She had been absent from work for three days, and hoped that her boss would listen to her explanation tomorrow.

Lu Chen sat by the window. To the south was the endless darkness of the slums, and to the north was the bright lights of the uptown area.

In today's era, the Sistine Empire still has not entered the life of steam machinery, and maintains a traditional but backward way of life. The main method of lighting is kerosene lamps, and heating is burning fire in the fireplace.

As for kerosene lamp lighting, it burns about one penny of kerosene every three hours, and poor families cannot afford it. Even people in the upper city are very careful to use it sparingly.

The reason why Lu Lin's siblings have kerosene lamps at home is because Lu Lin occasionally has to catch up on paperwork after returning home, and she also needs to deal with emergencies at night.

At the end of the first floor of the rental house is the Gonggong washroom. Poor people have no nightlife. After dark, all they can do is wash and sleep.

Perhaps the two siblings had dinner early today, and there was no one in the bathroom, so there was no need to queue.

The window of the bathroom opens to the north, reflecting the lights of the uptown area, bringing a ray of light to this dark environment.

Lu Lin rinsed her cheeks with the cold water from the faucet. After a brief wash, Lu Lin put her hands on the table and seemed a little exhausted. In the dim light, she looked up at the pale face in the mirror.

In those eyes surrounded by dark circles, the whites were bloodshot, revealing countless fatigue.

The distant noise seemed far away from this quiet bathroom. In the dim light, the face in the mirror seemed to change.

In the mirror, she seemed to see a vision, repeating the events of that night.

In the small room, the woman stood up from the blanket on the ground, wearing pajamas and disheveled hair, covering her eyes.

She stood in front of the bed, paused for a long time, and slowly stretched out her hands to explore the neck of the young man who was breathing steadily.

Slowly, slowly, she began to exert strength until the other party opened his eyes, stared at her closely, and looked at her.

The woman's strength continued to increase, and the man began to struggle due to the pain of suffocation. His eyes widened and the whites of his eyes were exposed. He looked at the woman and painful whimpers came from his throat.

It was as if there was a force and determination in the woman's thin hands, pressing the man down so that he could not get up. She cried and screamed in pain while increasing her strength.

When the man's struggle was about to stop, the woman slowly withdrew the strength in her arm, retreated suddenly, and sat on the ground, breathing heavily.

The man kept coughing on the bed and looked at the woman sitting next to him in horror. But it seemed that after a while, he became confused again, mumbling words that no one could understand.

The woman helped the man cover himself with the quilt again. She didn't know what kind of expression was hidden in her eyes hidden under her hair, she apologized in a low voice, and then fell asleep again.

Memories came back like a flood, lingering, and the ordinary mirror in front of me was like a magic mirror, constantly repeating those scenes.

Lu Lin held her head in her hands, feeling a splitting headache. Finally, she slowly squatted down and gasped for air under the pool.

Yes, she had wanted to strangle her brother to death with her own hands.

She was a top student who graduated from the public seminary in Noah Province. She was beautiful and had many suitors in the college. However, all happiness was denied to her because she had a crazy younger brother.

After she stopped, she didn't know if she regretted it. She went to work as usual the next day, but when she came back in the evening, she found that her brother was missing.

She searched around the area where she lived, but when no one was found, a sense of panic arose in her heart.

How could I do this to him?

A colleague once asked her if she had ever thought about abandoning her lunatic brother and starting a new life. She thought for a moment before shaking her head with a smile.

She still remembered how cute her brother was when she was a child. When he could walk, his little hands would hold the hem of her skirt and waddle on the street.

When he first learned to speak, his first call of sister was so sweet.

He will make himself happy when he encounters something depressing. He will cook awkwardly and make unpalatable meals and be criticized by his parents. He will...

The reason why he and his parents came to Ocalan, the capital of Noah Province, was not only to travel, but also to visit himself who was studying abroad.

There were so many beautiful things when you were a child, that was the closest person to you, and after your parents died, this was the only relative you had left.

He once held his hand and said that he would fight away all those who bullied his sister in the future. When he was a child, he was so cute, brave, and fearless, but after the disaster, he turned into a boy who was terrified and trembling all day long.

Thinking of the good times and looking at the helpless boy, how could you abandon him?

Lu Lin searched around Xiacheng District and asked around, but could not find any sign of her brother.

Do you feel a sense of relief in your heart?

He is gone, and you don't have to get blood on your hands. You can pursue the life you like from now on.

Lu Lin stood up, looked at herself in the mirror, and wiped her face with a towel.

Shamefully, she did sigh in relief after the initial panic.

She didn't go to work, and she stopped looking for it. She just sat in the room in a daze, lying on the bed she hadn't slept on for a long time, and her fatigue was urging her to fall asleep.

But she woke up in the middle of the night, because she always wakes up at this time.

People are always contradictory and complex. It takes time to regret before you can explore your true heart.

So she went out looking again, but found nothing.

"elder sister."

The man's voice from behind made Lu Lin startle, waking her up from memories and trance.

"Chenchen, the water here is cold. Sister, go back and heat it up before you wash."

After turning around, Lu Lin looked at her younger brother, a trace of doubt flashing in her eyes. Her younger brother had been missing for three days, but how could his face be cleaner than hers?

"No, I'm not that squeamish. It's cold outside. Sister, please go back after washing up."

When Lu Chen saw that Lu Lin had not returned for a long time, he used his spiritual mind to explore outside. He found that the other person's expression was changing in front of the mirror, and he was squatting on the ground holding his head in pain. He was worried and walked out to check.

"Don't worry, your sister and I have a great body... Ah Shi——"

Lu Lin sneezed mid-sentence, feeling a little embarrassed.

Lu Chen urged Lu Lin to go back quickly, while he rinsed it casually in front of the faucet, making a show of it.

Lu Lin calmed down and tried to be calm in front of her brother. She told herself that the bad days were over and she believed everything would get better.

Shortly after the two siblings returned to the hut, they heard Mr. Pukins roaring, yelling at who had used so much water.

"Sister, you can sleep on the bed, I can sleep on the floor."

Lu Chen said to Lu Lin who was making the bed, he really couldn't stand it.

"How……"

Before Lu Lin could refute, Lu Chen lay down on the blanket on the floor and pulled the quilt over her, "Sister, you should pay attention to your health. You may have a cold."

Lu Lin was in a daze for a moment, her nose felt sore, she hummed in a low voice, then helped Lu Chen straighten the corners of the quilt, and lay down on the bed.

Goddess of Morning Embrace, thank you for giving me my normal brother, I will be grateful.

"Sister, I can't sleep, can you tell me about your time in the academy..."

Lu Chen wanted to ask something related to Morning Embrace Church, theology, etc., but found that the breathing on the bed had calmed down.

This big girl has fallen asleep.

She didn't even change her clothes because she was too tired.

Lu Chen was silent for a moment, then stood up lightly, drawing out the life essence from the wheel sea, and helped Lu Lin wash her body.

The bags under the girl's eyes gradually disappeared, her slightly furrowed brows relaxed, her pale skin became rosy, her slightly old hands that had been frozen by the cold wind returned to their proper appearance, and her skin was once again full of youthful luster.

The two bright moons climbed up, and the bright white moonlight shone on Lu Lin's body through the uncurtained window.

Now it seems that this big girl's statement that she once had many suitors in the seminary was not a lie.

The face after falling asleep is very weak, with pitiful beauty. The long black hair spreads randomly around the body and behind the neck. The eyelashes on the eyes are as dense and straight as curtains. Although the life is tiring, but because it is indoors Even though he is working as a clerical worker, his skin remains fair, his body is slender and he is well developed.

Lu Chen covered Lu Lin with the quilt on the side, who was sleeping soundly and unaware of the cold, "Good night, sister."

…………

"ah--"

A scream seemed to break through the sky at noon.

After Lu Lin got up from the bed, she looked at the sun outside the window frantically, "It's over, it's over, I planned to get up early and go to work today to explain!"

Lu Chen stood in front of the pot, flipping the fish inside. He caught it early in the morning at Lake Burius on the outskirts of the city. At this time, it was fried to a crisp on the outside and tender on the inside, golden on the outside, sizzling with oil, and sprinkled with salt and this The pepper of the world, the simple method makes the aroma explode in this small room.

Lu Lin looked at this scene in surprise and rubbed her eyes, thinking she was still dreaming.

Yes, it’s okay if I’m dreaming, that means I’m not late.

But since it’s a dream, there’s no need for me to wake up so early, right? After all, the smell is so tempting.

But when she looked around, she felt that everything was so real, even her clothes were the same as they were before going to bed yesterday.

Too bad I fell asleep with my dirty clothes on?

She got off the bed and felt something was wrong when she stood up. Why was her body so light today?

She raised her hand and pinched her face. It was painful and tender, as if she had returned to her youth before she was twenty years old. Her hands, which had been used for writing and doing housework for a long time, had become white and flawless.

what happened? Why do I seem to be getting younger?

The fatigue of the past few days seems to have disappeared, and my body is particularly healthy.

This feeling is like a person who has been carrying a heavy weight for a long time and suddenly throws away the sandbag and is about to take off.

Strange things happened to her, but she still focused her attention on the pot for the first time, "Where did the fish come from?"

She had seen that kind of fish once during a team building event. It was said to be quite expensive, costing five pence per pound. Judging from the size of the fish in the pot, it must have weighed five or six pounds, right?

She didn't go to check the deposit in the drawer, because her deposit only totaled two shillings, which included this week's rent.

She was a little worried. Could her brother be out of his mind again? Did he go to the market to grab this fish?

“I caught it early in the morning in Lake Burius, so I was lucky.”

Lu Chen casually said that he didn't want to eat that rye bread anymore.

Because the energy in this world is thin, it is inconvenient for him to absorb spiritual power. After the battle, he may have to rely on eating as the main means of recovering his physical strength.

It's strange to say that although the difficulty limit of this world is very high and the monsters he encounters are not weak, why doesn't he have enough spiritual energy?

In the Zhetian Universe, he can be said to be extremely durable in battles, because the soul source recovery speed of the Emperor Martial Sutra is very abnormal. As long as the spiritual energy of the place is not exhausted, he can fight for a year against an opponent without pressure.

But here, because the energy similar to spiritual energy is thin, if he attacks with all his strength, he may be exhausted after fighting for half a day.

"You can also fish!?"

Lu Lin was a little strange. She remembered that when she was a child, she and her brother went fishing on the river, but the other party couldn't catch a single fish. The fish in Lake Bullius were difficult to catch, and only large fishing boats could catch fish in the depths.
