Evetrona's old stories

"I suggest putting the knife here." Ji Xian spread his wings, passed over Eve's head, and the feathers on the tip of the wings touched the man's right thigh, "In this way, even if it can effectively stop his movements, it will not Let him bleed to death." Ji Xian paused, and added, "At least I won't die before your eyes."

Eve is like a good student who listens carefully to the class. Ji Xian said that once she nodded her head, at a certain moment, she felt a pain on the top of her head, which made her nose a little sore.

"Don't move around." Ji Xian warned.Only then did Eve realize that Ji Xian was pecking herself with its sharp beak just now.

She wanted to reach out to lift the mail on the man's leg, but was stopped by Ji Xian: "No need, just use the knife."

So, Eve raised the red dagger in her hand, aimed at the place Ji Xian was pointing at, and stabbed down abruptly.This dagger is so sharp, there is almost no obstacle from cutting through metal to sinking into flesh and blood. When Eve regained her senses, only the handle of the knife was left outside—this was the first time she had lived for so many years. Stabbing someone with a knife, I couldn't help but feel a little uncomfortable. Looking at the place where the dagger stabbed, it seemed that my leg was also hurting.

"It's fine." Ji Xian said, it stroked Eve's head with its wings, and comforted, "I'll get used to it."

Eve pulled out the dagger, not a single drop of blood leaked out, as if nothing had happened just now.In addition to nervousness and fear in her heart, there is actually curiosity and excitement hidden in her heart. It feels like being instigated by others to do bad things, which is very exciting.

Soon, apart from the few who had been killed and seriously injured by the guards, the remaining 20 or so robbers were also stabbed by Eve, including the few who were hiding in the distant trees and behind the rock pile, and were picked out one by one by Ji Xian. Every robber was injured in exactly the same position.Eve pushed all the robbers who were fighting with the guards to the ground to avoid accidents. After doing all this, Ji Xian flew back to the starting position and stopped on top of the white horse.

"Okay, this guy is the only one left." Ji Xian said.

Strange to say, Eve walked around and stabbed all the robbers, and when she looked back at Yuqie, she felt that this guy wasn't so scary anymore.He has a good skin, but he will inevitably get stabbed in the end.

She didn't hesitate, this time she knew where to strike without Ji Xian's command, and after she finished the stabbing, she dragged Yuqie off the horse, avenging her just now.

"Okay." Ji Xian raised his head and said, "It's getting late, look, the sun is out."

Eve looked in the direction of Ji Xian's line of sight, and what she saw was a layer of sparkling water in the air, as if the area they were in was submerged underwater.Ji Xian used his ability to freeze the time in this area, but the time outside was still passing, and the rain from the outside kept falling into the time-frozen area, gradually accumulating a layer of water film in the air.One person and one bird have been tossing for so long, and the sky has cleared up at this time.

"The next thing is simple, just leave the mess to the kid over there." Bird raised his head, pointed his beak in the direction of Bowen Ross, "You find a place to stand."

"Where are you standing?"

"This way." It pointed to a piece of green grass in the wilderness, "It can make others notice you at the first sight without being too eye-catching."

So Eve walked over.

"Turn your back to the sun, towards the convoy, yes, that's the angle. It will soften your facial expressions, give you a religious mystique, keep your legs slightly apart, keep your waist straight, and Quickly untie that braid."

Eve smiled wryly, and had no choice but to follow its orders.

Ji Xian groaned in satisfaction, and then said: "Okay, I'll go first, if you have anything to do, call my name, tell me, what's my name?"

"Ji... Ji Xian."

"Okay." Seeing that the preparations were almost done, the bird jumped up and flew vertically towards the sky above Eve's head, like a red flame, evaporating the small layer of rainwater stagnant in the midair into a cloud of white mist.

In the next moment, the still time and space flowed again, and the pouring rain pressed down on the ground. Except for Eve, everyone was drowned. In one cloud, the rain stopped falling, the sun shone through the clouds, and people's vision was much wider. Bowen Ross only felt that his consciousness was in a trance. The original scene of seeing Eve being taken away had been reversed. The blond man fell off his horse and rolled to the ground at this moment, and at the same time there was a plop sound behind him. Bowen Ross looked back and saw that the two robbers who had just fought with him were lying on the ground, clutching his thighs and gritting their teeth. moaned.

Bowen Ross was very confused about these scenes. He turned around twice in a daze, but found that there were no enemies around him that he could fight with.

When he raised his head to look forward again and wiped the rain off his face, he saw a petite figure standing in the hazy fog. She was wearing a white plush cloak, and her long black hair hung straight down her waist. The sun shone miraculously through the gaps in the clouds, only falling on her.

Love at First Sight (Part [-])

Yuqie fell off his horse and rolled twice on the ground, covered in muddy water. He felt numbness and severe pain in his right leg. If he moved a little, the pain would be unbearable. His white horse paced up from not far away and kept pressing his mouth against his waist to express his uneasiness. He patted the white horse's broad neck to signal his partner to feel relieved.He sat on the ground and looked around blankly, not knowing what happened just now. He looked to his right and saw the girl who made him fall in love at first sight not far away.

The girl seemed to notice his gaze, she turned her head and glanced at the man.

"Is she smiling? Or isn't she smiling?" Yuqie looked at her, and a strong impulse suddenly appeared in his heart. The impulse was not the throbbing of love, nor the impulse of lust. The impulse was so exciting Shocking, as if it can restore sight to the blind, make the dumb speak, and bring the dead back to life... It is a kind of satisfaction and nostalgia that is almost like conversion, and it is an emotional impact that far exceeds the emotions of men and women.

He was so intoxicated by this feeling for a moment that he couldn't extricate himself.

Eve was like an actor standing in the middle of the stage playing the leading role. She was both excited and nervous. She could only ensure that she walked in a straight line under the eyes of everyone, but this was enough. She walked a few steps in front of Bowen Ross, cleared her throat, and said calmly, "Let's go."

Such a simple sentence made Bowen Ross as excited as if he saw the general who turned the tide. He called the guards to gather, bandaged the wounded in the team, consolidated the supplies, and transferred the carriage back to the gravel road.This group of guards is worthy of being the elite of Red Eagle Fort. Except for Gorusido who was a little shaky when walking, the rest of them only suffered some skin trauma. Luo Ba was so unscathed, if Eve hadn't run around just now, maybe they could really resist the robbers' attack.

The three plateau horses have recovered, but the carriage compartment is almost falling apart. Bowen Ross simply asked people to remove the roof and compartment to make the carriage run like an open-air cart.

They lost three war horses, and because of their pride, they refused to take the bandits’ horses, so they needed four people to ride in twos. Considering the bearing capacity of the war horses, the road ahead may have to be slower. Goruxido and Bowen Ross were seriously injured. They got into the carriage and were covered in bandages. The two sat on the shoulders opposite Eve. , looks very funny.

The crowd left in such a swaggering manner, leaving behind a group of bandits lying on the ground, howling with ghosts and wolves.

Yuqie was carried back to the camp by his companions who came to the rescue. It was not known whether it was because of a wound infection or a cold. He had a fever that night, talking in his sleep in a daze, and it took three days to gradually recover.His leg has been bandaged and he can walk now, but he is still limping. Despite the persuasion of his subordinates, he insisted on checking the injuries of his companions. He heard from the pharmacist in the camp that, except for a few killed and injured Those who were in a severe coma, and the rest of them suffered injuries to their right legs, and the shape and location of the wounds were exactly the same, as if they had been pierced by a sharp object.Not only those who participated in the battle, even the few people who were watching the wind a few hundred meters away were also injured in one place.

Even though it has been a few days, everyone in the camp still feels scared when they talk about it. The beautiful women who live in the back of the camp also heard about it, and they are also worried that they can't sleep well. They are always afraid that someone will come To retaliate, some have even begun to beg people with good relations in the camp, wanting them to send themselves back to their hometown first.

Yuqie laughed out loud after listening to his subordinate's statement, he didn't seem worried at all.

"Did you see that at the time? The girl in white, I fell in love with her the first time I saw her, but I didn't realize until later that this kind of infatuation has nothing to do with the relationship between a man and a woman. No, it should be said that compared to this, the relationship between a man and a woman is nothing!" Yuqie was in a good mood, "Obviously, she did it. You have also seen that she can easily kill all of us in an instant by herself. After all, the wound on the leg is no different from that on the neck or heart. This shows that she has forgiven us." He kept talking more and more, and wanted to jump on the wine table to give a speech in front of the crowd as he usually did when he was excited, but his thigh was still aching, so he knocked his crutches on the table to replace his boots, and continued: "She forgave us! She can forgive people like us who have done bad things, why? Because she never hated us from the beginning, nor hated all evil, she tolerated everything and could understand this world The pain in the world, her strength comes from her tolerant love, so who is she? After thinking about it, there is only one possibility—she is a goddess, the incarnation of a god walking in the world! And we are all her people, her immature children, so she can easily forgive us, she knows that we are just going astray..."

Everyone present covered their faces and sighed.

Yuche Erlo didn't have such a nagging temperament at the beginning. He was born in the small country of Hatan, and the people of Hatan and Elvran have different beliefs. Accept the exiles from Elvran that year.Back then, out of respect for old acquaintances, Yuqie's adoptive father, a fencing master, took a great risk of public opinion and did not allow him to be baptized and converted to the local religion. Therefore, he has not received religious education since he was a child, so he has always been involved in the level of belief. are missing.One thing to point out is that neither Eve nor Yuqie has received religious indoctrination, but Eve originally lived in a society where atheists were more common, and she didn't feel it, while Yuqie was different. When he lived in a society where everyone had religious beliefs, his inner desire for religious conversion became stronger as he grew up, but the hazy pious desire in his heart prompted him to be cautious. I don't want to easily believe in a certain sect.A similar contradiction also exists in his morality - the swordsman's precepts and deeds let him realize the importance of honesty and responsibility, but his lack of belief and experience will make this young man easily bewitched and corrupted. He has been hovering on the edge of morality until that day when the old butcher pulled him to the evil side, and he sank deeper and deeper into the abyss without any resistance.

Even after coming to Sunshine Valley, he has always longed for a kind of faith from the heart, a reliable spiritual destination.Against this background, a box of religious books snatched by accident during a looting incident aroused his interest, that is, the root of all evil in the eyes of everyone, and Yuqie's subordinates still think it is the source of all evil. Retribution: They shouldn't have robbed an old and down and out archaeologist then.From this box of books, Yuqie obtained the most precious ideological enlightenment in his life (rather than religious enlightenment). After all, these books are mixed with different religious cultures from all over the world. They talk differently, make far-fetched ideas, and even tamper with history to conform to the teachings. Because of this, Yuqie is completely disappointed in religion, but for him, for this era, religion is undoubtedly the only one that can redeem sinful souls. The life-saving straw—a common plot in religious myths—a sinful person who weeps and converts piously, after being baptized by a saint, he changes his mind and finally becomes a saint... He read a lot of books, and he became more and more aware of The absurdity and contradictions of this world.

Faith!

His heart vacillated between belief and disbelief, like a chronic insomniac. He had never experienced what it was like to sleep. He would always listen to the snoring of the people around him, feeling itchy and anxious.This symptom has troubled him for more than ten years, until a few days ago, he saw the girl, and saw her poking her head out of the car window. Although the surrounding fog was dense, he could still see her penetrating eyes clearly. He was attracted by the eyes that seemed to have no prejudice against everything, and he fell in love with her immediately.

If only she wasn't so pretty!If only she wasn't a woman!If she was just a ray of light, a soul... then he must know exactly why he was fascinated by her.He only had one simple and pitiful idea - to talk to her, even if she only made a sound without expressing any views or emotions, he would be satisfied with it.Therefore, when he grabbed the girl's waist and dragged her into his arms, one can imagine the joy in his heart. He got instant and eternal satisfaction. He even thought that it would be no regret to let him die on the spot now. But when this idea just came to his mind, he had already rolled several times on the ground. It was the first time in his life that he was in such a mess.

"I've decided!" On the morning of the second day after his speech, he called all the people in the camp and announced, "I'm going to find her, I might catch her if I leave now. "

Yuqie's very irresponsible words made everyone present terrified. The moment he spoke, everyone realized that he was not discussing or planning, but had indeed decided, and he was going to do it.

"Then what should we do here?" Someone couldn't help asking.

"You can stay and continue to do this business, you can even go out to do it alone or find another family, but if you want my advice, then I advise you - find a place where no one knows you, forget your identity as a robber, In the future, I will be a law-abiding little commoner."

To the robbers, Yuqie's words were so incredible that some thought he was joking and laughed on the spot.

"Elo! Can I go with you?" Behind the crowd, a pretty woman wearing a light blue pleated dress asked him loudly. Her voice was so thin that it overwhelmed everyone. noisy discussion.The women beside her who were also well-dressed saw Yuqie looking at them, and they also looked at him with questioning eyes.

He bowed to them from a distance.

"A villain like me is not worthy of the efforts of ladies. I'm a rough person, and I can't read women's minds, let alone noble ladies. I don't know what else is worth staying here for me besides this face." Yuqie's eyes met with the woman who asked the question: "Liz, I thank you and your subordinates for helping me in recent years, but you know what I have done. No matter what, I can't become the kind of robber in your mind. It is a fiction in books. If it is like this in reality I am a despicable person by nature, I know that you want to help me, but I didn't refuse you, and I couldn't repay you..."

"You don't need to reciprocate!" said the beautiful woman named Liz, wiping the tears from the corners of her eyes.

Yuqie seemed to want to say something to her, but he didn't say it. He was tired of organizing the unformed thoughts in his mind into words, and he didn't want to waste too much time on this, so he said: "Liz, go back Well, your father misses you very much, and he can take care of you better than me."

After hearing this, Liz's face changed, and after a moment of stunned, she turned and left with her arms supporting her skirt, and the guards with swords beside her also left behind, leaving the rest a little bit behind. Overwhelmed woman.

Seeing this scene, Yuqie couldn't help but put a smile on the corner of his mouth. He raised his chin towards the back of Liz's departure, which really didn't deserve a beating.

In the afternoon, Yuqie rode his own white horse, took a small bag of gold coins and some dry food, and left the bandit camp in Sunlight Valley. He didn't even bring his beloved bow, but only a dagger—the simple wooden-handled dagger that stabbed the old butcher's chest in the past.Not long after he left the camp, a young man chased him up on horseback. His name was Roger Molanfsido, and he was the youngest member of the camp. Seeing him coming alone, with red and swollen eyes, and without any supplies on his body, Yuqie didn't have the heart to chase him away and let him follow him temporarily.

And after the irresponsible leader left, the bandit camp became extremely lively. In the next few days, they gradually divided into three factions—one part decided to stay here, and the other decided to join the bandits in the west The gang, and a few more than a dozen people got a small amount of treasure, and went down the mountain in twos and threes, planning to live a stable life from now on.And those women who were attracted by Yuqie also made their own decisions. Aristocratic ladies like Liz finally decided to return to the family. Those who are obsessed or hostage complex tend to find their own way out, some of them fell in love with those young men under Yuqie, and now they can finally express their feelings, and follow them to stay in the camp or go down the mountain to seek life; the rest follow Liz and others The convoy of people left Sunshine Valley on the way, to find relatives or find their own way out.Generally speaking, the gangsters did not have much conflict in the process of dividing their wealth this time. On the one hand, it may be due to Yuqie's years of restraint and suppression, and on the other hand, there are ladies and guards watching The reason for this is that they subconsciously feel that they should at least behave a little humanly in front of outsiders.

In the eyes of ordinary people and most businessmen, the marching gorge is almost equivalent to a dead end. If not, it is at least a very risky one. Yuqie and the others also felt deeply when they first came here. During that time, the robber group There are quite a few people who lost their arms and legs when they were attacked by the beasts in the fog.But for the nobles and some interest groups, this road has its own meaning. With powerful mages and knights sitting in the formation, the benefits of this road can far outweigh the risks. Hundreds of horses, mighty and majestic, no matter who sees them, they must avoid them, not to mention those bullying beasts in Sunshine Valley, and when they pass through here smoothly and reach their destination, they pretend to inadvertently mention that they came from I set off from a certain place and came here at a certain time, but I didn’t say that I passed by the Sunshine Valley, but if someone with knowledge calculates the time: Oh, so fast, it must be the marching gorge.So after a burst of exclamation and admiration from others, the visitor has achieved the purpose of showing off his might.For these people, Yuqie will not provoke them easily, but at the same time, if he has the opportunity, he will not reap any benefits-these people usually have a long queue, and the speed is slow, and they can be heard from far away. Hearing the sound of the wind, Yuqie could use this time to ask his accomplices to set up roadblocks on some narrow roads, or make signs that looked like wild beasts fighting to block the main road.After finishing all this, he will be able to appear in front of the convoy alone, dressed like a relic explorer or archaeologist, pretending to strike up a conversation with those who came by, and then guiding them in a very natural way, he He has read a lot of books, and his conversation and demeanor are really extraordinary, but his handsome appearance is more convincing than words. He can almost succeed every time, and even win the appreciation of some nobles who are interested in the relics in a short time. He went to the car to have a chat.

That's why Liz fell in love with him at first sight.

Liz Helingi is a princess of the Celtic Kingdom on the east coast and the seventh child of King Gori IV. At that time, her elder brother Jiewen, who was very interested in archeology, invited the archaeologist who "met" to the carriage She was sitting next to her brother, covering her mouth with a fan, and sneaking glances at him from time to time, but the handsome young man didn't seem to notice it. The two men talked very happily. He thanked him with some property, but he refused. This made Jiewen very embarrassed. Finally, Jiewen gave him a white gemstone ring on his finger and told him that if he needed help in the future, he could use it to go to Kyle. Dedicated to himself.

At this point, the liar scholar left contentedly, defrauding valuable treasures and a girl's heart.After Yuqie left, Liz sneaked to the rear of the convoy in the name of chatting with the maid while her brother was not paying attention, changed into an inconspicuous gray riding outfit, and disappeared into the thick fog.

She didn't know anything about Sunshine Valley, and soon got lost in the foggy mountains. Because she was too frightened, she started calling out. She called "Mr. Scholar" at that time, and then repeatedly shouted "Help ".She yelled for a while, but was finally discovered by the mountain patrolling bandits, who took her back to the camp, and when she saw Yuqie wearing a fur coat in the bandit's den, she knew Yuqie's true identity , but she was neither angry nor afraid, on the contrary, she believed that Yuqie was her destined person. At that time, she was madly obsessed with a novel called "Green Forest City", and Yuqie's image was similar to that of the male protagonist in the novel. Coincidentally, an "elegant and charming liar".

Jiewen found out that his sister was missing after going to the nearest city, so he immediately sent someone to look for it. In the end, the person found him but was unwilling to come back. After ensuring the safety of his sister, Jiewen had to return first.Liz lived in the bandit camp for three full years. The reason for this was not only the girl's will to pursue happiness, but also some inexplicable reasons within the Helingi royal family.

Liz was not the first girl captured by Yuqie, but she was the most noble one.She is not disgusted with other suitors who are also in a competitive relationship, and can even get along well with them, but this does not show how noble her character is. Except for love, she is not a simple-minded person. She knows that she is more beautiful than others, nobler than others, and knows more than others. She always looks at those competitors as a superior and a winner, and because of this, her words are gentle and gentle. Giving orders, her gaze is tolerant and compassionate——she has an absolute advantage.

And that day, when Liz saw Yuqie, who was drenched and unconscious, being carried back, she cried a lot.Yuqie's high fever persisted, and despite everyone's dissuasion, she personally applied cold compresses to cool him down, and stayed by his side all day and night, and when he woke up, Liz was also the happiest one.Later, when Yuqie said he was going to leave the camp, Liz proposed to follow him with great expectation, but he never expected that he would dare to say such hurtful words in front of everyone.At that time, Liz suddenly felt that everything was meaningless. During these three years, no matter what she did was futile and meaningless, so she turned around and left, neither angry nor sad, only a little ironic .

Seeing Yuqie's burning eyes when he talked about his lover, she thought: Could it be that the curse of love is finally going to leave her and pass it on to this heartless man?

Liz suddenly remembered an old saying from Kyle—you don’t necessarily get rewarded for your efforts, but you will be rewarded for doing evil.

Duckrens

Elsewhere, if you ask someone what kind of place Kriging is, they might answer: Ah, Kriging, Kriging is a good place.If you ask him what is good, he will say: because there is no distinction between nobles and commoners, everyone is the same.

The Kingdom of Klikin was born only a hundred years ago, and its capital city, Bomen, was built on the ruins of Chateaulian City. It is said that there were 17 founders of the country. Enruth's sect of Logos, both espousing rationality and pantheism.There are almost no officially established churches in Klickin’s country, and the government does not encourage the belief in any religion. The only religious building that can be called a religious building is a [-]-meter steel steeple in the center of the capital city of Bomen. The holy book called the Law of the Origin is actually a mathematical guidebook from the First Era, deep but not obscure.The original law is the cornerstone of Kriging and Neo-Logosism.

The Dakeren and his wife live in a manor thirty miles north of Bomeng. It is located in the suburbs and has abundant natural resources. Grasslands, cultivated land, mountains, forests, and water sources are all available. Although there are no distinctions between nobles and commoners in Klitkin, it does not mean that there are no distinctions between the poor and the rich.The land and real estate owned by the Dakeren couple does not seem to be owned by ordinary people. Even if they only live by collecting land rent, they are much richer than those small nobles in other places.

In the letter to Red Eagle Fort, Harvey specified where Eve was going, and also mentioned the surname Dakren, so when the convoy came to Bomeng, they only needed to ask the locals to know about Dakren. The location of the Boyun Manor where the Keren and his wife lived, there were even people who were very active in showing them the way, and it was free of charge.

The Dakeren couple had learned about this in advance. Although they didn't know who the visitors were, they heard that they had come all the way from Red Eagle Fort, so they sent people to meet them on the way.But when they saw Eve and the guards, they found that they didn't know any of them. It wasn't until Bowen Ross showed Harveyn's letter to them that they got a clue.

Mao Qi is a middle-aged man with a beard under his chin. He is not tall and looks kind, while Nan Fen is an elegant woman with short hair and a pale golden shawl. Standing together, they look very good both in dress and appearance. It's hard to guess that the two are from the same era, let alone a couple.The couple stayed with the visitors and asked Bowen Ross and others to stay and rest for a while before leaving.Nanfen is usually the one who makes the decision between the two. From the looks of it, the status of the wife seems to be higher than that of the husband.

The Dakeren couple have a son and a daughter. The son has just grown up and is still studying in the capital and rarely goes home. The daughter just turned ten years old last month. She also has blond hair and looks like her mother.

On the afternoon when Eve came to the manor, she chatted alone with the Dakeren couple for a while. Not long after the chat, the bird named Ji Xian flew into the living room from nowhere and landed on Eve's shoulder. Wearing only a single shirt, the bird's sharp claws still hurt her shoulders when it landed.

"Did Ji Xian come with you?" Mao Qi couldn't help being a little surprised when he saw the firebird, "I ask you, what's the situation now?" Unknown to Wen San, the two breathed a sigh of relief after seeing Ji Xian.

"Harvey can't leave now, so I ask you to greet this girl... Her name is Eve."

"Then, Eve belongs to Hawein..." Nanfen put Eve's little hand on her own. The intimacy between women is very natural, even though she still doesn't know the origin of this little girl.

"It's his daughter." Ji Xian said.

Hearing this answer, the Dakeren couple's eyes widened. Eve saw their very similar expressions, and it was only for the first time that she confirmed that the two were a real couple.

"Eve just said that she is Harvein's younger sister. Could it be that the girl..." Maoqi pointed to his head vaguely.

Eve looked at his cautious appearance, but turned her head in embarrassment instead of making any distinctions.But Nanfen didn't intend to let her husband go, she even picked the biggest apple from the fruit plate and threw it at him, and cursed: "Idiot!"

"Believe her, I misremembered, Eve is Harvein's younger sister." Ji Xian's words caught the three people present off guard, and it only took two sentences to make the couple feel like a cloud, and for a while I don't even know what to say.

"Speaking of which, Eve looks a lot like Egraine. Could it be Egraine and Harvein's daughter?" Nanfen pushed back the hair from Eve's ear, and the more she looked at it, the more she felt it was so.

"Egran is a pseudonym used by Evetrona." Ji Xian explained to Eve in a low voice, its beak almost sticking into Eve's ear.

"It's really similar. Didn't Egraine go to the Eastern Continent?" Mao Qi said, "Is Eve really the child of Egraine and Harveyne? If so, it makes sense in terms of time. Eve, how old are you this year?"

Eve was a little dazed, she and Ji Xian exchanged glances, and shook their heads at the same time.

"You don't remember anything?" he asked again.

Eve nodded.

"This matter is really strange. Harvey... I doubt whether he can really take care of a child." Mochi sighed, "But no matter what, at least our couple still has experience."

When Nanfen heard her husband's words, she immediately became happy. She looked at Eve's face over and over again, as if she was looking at her own flesh and blood who had been separated for many years. Even Ji Xian couldn't stand this woman's enthusiasm. He jumped onto the back of the sofa beside him.

"Like her, like everywhere, let's not talk about Harvey, you must be Egraine's daughter." Nanfen came to the conclusion, since her surname is Harvey, she also looks exactly like an old friend of theirs , that must be their child, the more Nanfen thought about it, the more reliable she felt. She was happy for these two old acquaintances, and the girl in front of her felt more and more lovable.

"Are you really their daughter?" Nanfen's voice was almost talking to herself. She looked at her and suddenly laughed, "Eve, let me be your godmother, okay?"

Nanfen's eyes were full of excitement, and Eve subconsciously nodded as she looked at the face that couldn't be rejected.

"That's great..." She hugged Eve into her arms, and after separating, she stared at Eve again, her eyes full of love.

Eve originally thought that she was not an emotional person, but now she felt her eyes were wet, as if something was stuck in her throat, which made her feel a little embarrassed and at a loss.This is a long-lost touching emotion. I don't know when, this emotion has been gradually forgotten as I grow up.

Nan Fen gently wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes with her knuckles, but her own eyes also became filled with tears.

Eve looked at Nanfen, and then realized that she was not easy to be emotional, but because she hadn't felt such undisguised, exclusive care for a long time.

She suddenly felt homesick, missed her mother, and missed the world.At a certain moment, an unspeakable sense of grievance surged out of her chest, breaking through the indifferent mask of the lonely person, and finally she no longer suppressed her emotions. Fern leaned against her arms and was patted on the shoulder by her, it was really like coaxing a child.

Although she was crying, she refused to make a sound, and even the sound of sobbing was controlled with all her strength.

Nanfen and Maoqi looked at each other, both showing worried and sad expressions.

Eve cried for a long time, and when she was tired, she felt sleepy. The feeling of insecurity caused by the pressure seemed to disappear in this cry along with the negative emotions from the old world. Her face was full of tears, but she was finally satisfied. At a certain moment, she even felt lucky: Fortunately, she is a girl now, so she can cry in front of people with confidence, and no one will dislike her.

Eve fell asleep on Nanfen's lap, curled up on the sofa like a cat.Mochi took a wool blanket and lightly covered her body, and added some firewood to the fireplace.

There are vague conversations on the stairs, sometimes birdsong or dog barking downstairs, the friction of the hinges when the door next door is opened, and the sound of firewood burning in the fireplace... Nanfen caresses Yi Fu's long hair, humming a simple and soothing folk tune.Different voices flowed in her ears, converging into a trickle, watering her almost dry heart.The clock in her heart no longer ticked like a timer, and the noise of the city no longer woke her up from her sleep like a torrent of bells. She seemed to have returned to her childhood—the one who was sheltered by others and was unsuspecting of everything. heart age.

Bowen Rose and the others lived in the manor for more than half a month. On the one hand, it was because of the repeated attempts of the manor owner and his friends to keep them, and on the other hand, it was because of Eve.

It's hard to say what kind of feelings Bowen Ross has for Eve after passing through Sunshine Valley. He showed a kind of respect for his superiors or elders in his actions and words, but he couldn't hide the admiration in his eyes The nostalgia unique to the author——Gorusido could see this, so he kept persuading him not to stay for too long.They planned to stay for only three to five days, but when Eve appeared from the courtyard in a light green pleated dress, Bowen Rose refused to leave without saying anything.

It's hard to say how much influence Eve's appearance had on the young man. Kregev's temperament is sentimental and impulsive, but a few years later, Bowen Ross, who took over the affairs of Red Eagle Fort, was completely different from his father. He is calm and humble, but he is rarely seen smiling.

In the end, Bowen Ross said goodbye to Eve.

Bomeng City is relatively close to the sea, and due to some unique climatic mechanisms, spring here comes earlier than inland cities.The sun is so warm that people want to take a nap. Nanfen’s youngest daughter, Minxi, is holding a small leather ball in her hand. She wants to throw the ball towards Eve, but she is not very accurate. In the end, she follows the direction of the ball and circles Eve. Running around, playing alone was very fun, sometimes the ball was thrown to Eve, and Eve would throw it back to Minxi.

Eve is sitting on a bench near the fence in the pasture. As long as the weather is good, she will come out to sit, sometimes to look at the sky, sometimes to look at the creatures in the pasture, or take a book with many pictures and few words to read slowly. Basically, it was used by Minxi to learn to read.

Although Maoqi is the owner of the manor, he likes to do farm work and take care of animals with the hired people. There are both farmland and pastures here. Eve has visited them all, but Eve has never seen most of them, whether it is plants or animals.

There are always a few regular customers in the manor, all of them are friends of Maoqi, all middle-aged and elderly uncles, some are businessmen living in the city, some are the owners of other manors, there are also hunters from nearby villages, and some unknown people. Gathering together to talk about current affairs, or to discuss wine making and food, Eve thinks this group of people is very interesting, and often follows them, curious about what they are doing, sometimes watching them repair horseshoes or replace horseshoes in the horse farm, it takes a long time to see, Sometimes they watched them make wine with new varieties of spices and hops, or they watched them sow a small piece of tea or flower seeds in the yard. Over time, they also regarded Eve as a member of the group, a special member.They taught her how to ride horses, the commonly used cross saddle and the unpopular side saddle. They taught her swordsmanship, not the unarmored swordsmanship that is popular in street fights now, but for the purpose of saving life, and can deal with both humans and beasts. Generally speaking - what is useful to teach.They found that Eve seemed to be interested in everything, so they took her with them when they went hunting. It took a few days and a half months to go out, and every time Maoqi would be scolded by his wife because of these things, but next time But still as usual.Although Nanfen didn't know how to scold Eve, she always looked at her with complaining eyes, which made her a little embarrassed.

Nanfen's love for her is like a mother's love for a child. It is an unconditional love that does not ask for anything in return. A child can accept this kind of love calmly, but Eve considers herself not a child. Therefore, this great love makes her feel restless. She wants to repay but can't. The only way she can think of to repay is to obey and be an obedient child.Nanfen originally wanted to train her to be an excellent woman in the new era, let her know how to dress up, let her learn poetry and musical instruments, and let her get used to walking in various skirts and high heels—she didn’t show any resistance—human life is full of contradictions, and one principle may be broken because of another more important and urgent need.In this way, Eve has lived in Boyun Manor for nearly five years. On the one hand, she is suffering for Nanfen's dream of a lady, and on the other hand, she has learned a lot of manual and survival skills from Maoqi.

And Harvey never came to her.

Minxi, the Duckrens' daughter, grew up very fast, and it only took a few years to catch up with Eve's height. Minxi regards Eve as her own sister, but if you let outsiders see it, Minxi looks more like Eve from the outside. It's my sister.
