"Can't wait? Indeed a little, but I still have some time because it looks like you have a story to tell, "Allen said with a smile.
Lan Jie laughed and said, "I'm starting to like you a little. It's not a bad thing to let my will fuse with you."
"Alice, is she all right?"
Allen answered truthfully, "Not really, but I'll keep an eye on her. She's experienced a lot, and even after countless years, she still misses you. "
"Is that so? That child, I miss her, too. When I built the treasury, I couldn't suppress my instincts anymore. I didn't tell her a lot of things when I left in a hurry, and I only gave her a vague message. "
Lan Jie smoked and sighed, "That child is a fragile fellow. If I don't give her false hope, I'm afraid she'll end her long life in the endless years of waiting. This is the sorrow of a guardian. If there's no goal, who can endure the loneliness and pain of such a long life? "
"I agree, but Alice has already done what you wanted. She persevered, even though she was exhausted."
Lan Jie looked at Allen. "Then as a reward, can I say a few words to her later?"
"Of course."
Lan Jie nodded. "Then let's begin. I don't know if you've received the will of dusk like me. In any case, the experience won't be too pleasant. Remember not to lose yourself. "
Allen nodded. He knew very well what Lan Jie meant. When he first received Taylor's will, he couldn't tell which was him and which was Taylor. Or perhaps, it was both of them. Receiving wills wasn't a simple task, and it meant that Allen had to experience the lives of the children of dusk. He had to empathize with them, experience their pain, and share their happiness. It was often easy to lose oneself in the process. And once lost, what dominated Allen's body would be a chaotic will.
That was worse than being taken over by instinct.
。
However, there was no other choice, so Allen nodded and prepared to accept Lan Jie's will. Lan Jie smoked, and his figure gradually became blurry. A warm light bloomed from his body. When his figure completely disappeared, a ball of light that was like the warm sunlight at dusk floated in front of Allen and entered his body.
Suddenly, the hall in Allen's eyes disappeared, replaced by countless chaotic images. His consciousness felt like it was being pulled into thousands of pieces. Even he couldn't help but let out a muffled groan.
Then, his self-consciousness became a little fuzzy.
After an unknown period of time, Alan heard some sounds. It was like a bustling market, and he could smell all kinds of smells. There was the freshness of vegetables, the stench of poultry, and the fragrance of wine …
Then the sun was blinding.
He could not help but raise his hand to block the sunlight, and then he saw the scene of people coming and going in front of him. As the crowd passed by him, he realized that he was leading a horse. Looking at himself again, he saw that he was wearing simple leather armor with a long sword hanging from his waist. He looked like a wandering mercenary.
He did not know where this place was, but it was definitely not Earth. Because Earth would not have a lavender sky, and the sun and moon appeared together on the other side of the sky. The people walking nearby looked like humans, but there was a slight difference, and that was their pupils.
Their pupils were silver and very special. Then, a word naturally appeared in Allen's mind: Cliffians.
This was a planet he had never heard of before.
But he knew that this was Lan Jie's hometown.
Just like what he saw, he was now in a market, and his body was walking forward uncontrollably. The pedestrians and vendors on both sides saw him and exclaimed, "Isn't that Lan Jie with red eyes?"
"Don't be so loud. He's the Bearer of Misfortune. Misfortune follows him wherever he goes."
Then, Allen saw 'himself' step forward and kick down a vendor. He lifted him up and shouted, "Who did you say is the Bearer of Misfortune!"
"Let go of me, let go of me, I'm finished!" The vendor wailed.
At this moment, Allen knew that he was experiencing Lan Jie's life. His consciousness stopped at this experience, which meant that this experience was very important to Lan Jie.
Then, he heard 'myself'.
'If it weren't for work, who would come to a place like this? The place where I, Lord Lan Jie, should be accompanied by wine and women. Ah, you bumped into me, little brat. "
A short and thin figure bumped into 'himself', and Allen saw 'himself' reach out and grab the little fellow's collar. The other party struggled desperately, causing the headscarf wrapped around her head to fall off, and her long hair to fall down. It turned out to be a little girl.
However, Lan Jie didn't have the slightest intention of showing mercy to the girl. He threw the little girl to the ground, squatted down, and picked up a money bag from her hand. "This won't do. Even if you're a little brat, you must be tired of living to dare steal Lord Lan Jie's money. Hey, don't look at me like that. Even if you're cute, I won't be soft-hearted.
”
The little girl was indeed very cute. Her big eyes seemed to sparkle with starlight. More importantly, she looked somewhat similar to Alice. If he didn't know that Alice was a guardian created by Lan Jie, Allen would almost think that it was Alice when she was a child.
"Hey, stranger, what did you do to my daughter?"
A voice sounded behind him. Lan Jie turned around and a strong man bumped into his eyes. He was carrying an iron rod covered with spikes in his hand, and there were more than a dozen big men gathered around him. It was obvious that they were not good people.
The leader pointed to the little girl on the ground and said, "She's my precious daughter. Now that you've bumped into her, you must hand over all your belongings. Otherwise, you won't be able to leave this place. "
"Ma Ka, are you Iron Rod Ma Ka?" Lan Jie asked with a smile.
"That's right, it's me."
Lan Jie nodded and put his hand on the hilt of his sword. "That's enough. Someone bought the lives of you and your accomplices. You looted a village three months ago, and almost all the men in the village were killed by you. If I'm not mistaken, this little brat isn't your daughter at all, but you took her away from one of the villages that you looted, right? "
"You're indeed very cautious. You won't make a move near the village where you stay, so that it's not easy to be exposed. If it weren't for me, it would have been difficult for the other hunters to track your traces. But since I'm here, I'll give you my head. That child can take out all his possessions to avenge his father! "
As he spoke, Lan Jie drew his sword and pounced forward. He walked like the wind, walking between the group of burly men as if he was taking a stroll. Every time he swung the sword in his hand, he would definitely cut off a head. A moment later, other than the man named Ma Ka, all the other men had been beheaded.
Lan Jie stepped on Ma Ka's body and pointed his sword at his head. The latter screamed, "Don't kill me. I'll give you double how much money he gave you. No, ten times! "
"Actually, it's not much. I was starving to death at that time. He gave me a baked potato and I ate it before he made a request. What a cunning brat. He knew that I, Lord Lan Jie, didn't want to owe favors." Lan Jie spat on Ma Ka's face as he spoke.
Ma Ka's expression was very shocked. He probably didn't expect this fiendish man to kill him for a baked potato. He cried out, "My lord, please let me go. I'll give you a cart of baked potatoes!"
Lan Jie smiled, "That's quite a lot."
Ma Ka also laughed along.
"However, I, Lan Jie, have never had the habit of collecting two portions of money. This will ruin my reputation, so you'd better die!" After saying that, he stabbed his sword into Ma Ka's stunned face.
Pulling out his sword, Allen saw that there was blood everywhere under his feet. Even the strong smell of blood in his nose kept drilling in. Lan Jie withdrew his sword and walked to the horse. He took out a wine jug and drank a mouthful. He said happily, "This damned work is finally over. Three months. I've been busy for three months just for a baked potato. Damn it, I finally don't have to sleep on a rock. I can finally sleep with a beautiful and fragrant woman. Hahahaha. "
Just as he was laughing happily, he suddenly felt someone tugging at the corner of his clothes. Lan Jie turned around and saw that the little girl was tugging at the corner of his clothes with her head lowered. Lan Jie put away his smile and suddenly kicked the girl to the ground, "Hey, don't misunderstand anything. I killed those people just for work. Don't bother me because of that. "
He jumped on the horse and left.
Leaving the village, he allowed the horse to take him on a leisurely walk in the wilderness. Lan Jie drank all the wine and jumped off the horse when he heard the sound of water. He used the wine jug to drink water from a stream. After drinking a few mouthfuls, he suddenly stood up. His hand had already pressed on the hilt of his sword, but he let it go.
A thin figure stood by the stream in the distance and looked at him timidly. It was the girl he met at the village market.
Lan Jie shouted, "Go back, kid. Don't pester me. I have no obligation to take you. You didn't give me anything. "
The little girl lowered her head but stubbornly walked over. Lan Jie raised his foot and kicked a stone at the girl's foot. The girl immediately sat on the ground. Lan Jie said coldly, "I'll hit your head next time. If you don't want to die, get out of here. I don't have extra money to support a kid like you."
He turned and left.
The little girl stood up again and took a step forward. She didn't know if it was because she had been hit by Lan Jie's leg just now, but she missed a step and twisted between the cracks of the stone. She immediately lost her balance and fell into the stream next to her. The stream was very fast. She only had time to scream before she was carried away by the stream.
Just when she thought she was going to drown in the stream, a hand lifted her up and threw her to the ground. She looked up and barely saw Lan Jie's face before she fainted.
Lan Jie covered his face and said, "Damn it, can't you be a little more obedient? Hey, kid, get up quickly. Hey, hey. "
He squatted down to pat the girl's face and suddenly found that the girl had a fever.
