Leon Rick invited Angel to take the seat.
"Master Mask, can you save my daughter?" As soon as she sat down, Cindia hurriedly said, for fear that Angel would disappear in the next second.
Angel raised his eyes and glanced at Cindia. In just five days, the originally graceful lady was now haggard and out of shape. Even though her hair was still meticulously combed, it was without decoration; her plump cheeks also appeared. The depressions, especially the skin that changes the most, are completely sallow.
Because of her daughter's misfortune, it was her mother who suffered more in the end.
Angel buried his head slightly, Sindia's daughter's heart reminded him of his mother. She also loves herself and her brother so much, without reservation, even at the last second of her life.
Angel's silence made Cindia lost her eyes and sat on the chair blankly, tears flowing silently.
"Dr. Caroline, can you help me send Cindia back to the bedroom?" Although Li Onric was also very sad, but at this time, he was the only one who could carry the whole family, and he couldn't collapse.
Caroline nodded: "Okay. Madam has not closed her eyes these days, and she needs to rest." After that, Caroline left the hall with Cindia, leaving only Angel and Leon Rick in the hall.
Angel: "I heard from Baal, have you found a clue?"
Li Enrique showed a little discomfort: "It's not a clue, I just saw an urban legend in a travel journal in the central library." Speaking of this, Li Enrique spoke faster, with a sad expression: "I think It shouldn't have anything to do with the little black shadow, but, I really have nothing to do, although Magda has woken up these days, but... "
Angel interrupted him: "It's irrelevant, let's not mention it for the time being. I want to hear the urban legend you told Baal."
Angel's solemn expression made Leon Rick stunned for a moment, and a suspicion that he himself didn't believe arose in his heart: Could it be such a coincidence? The urban legend he saw happened to be related to this matter, right
Thinking of this possibility, Leon Rick immediately sat upright and started talking about the urban legend from the beginning—
"According to legend, a thousand years ago, there lived a group of races that liked to live in human families in Xipolak, whose name was the Kura Kuka. This race was called the little people by the locals of Xipolak, or: the people in the attic Fairy."
"They are small in size, and most of them are less than a palm. They are gentle and kind, can sing and dance, and like to make all kinds of exquisite accessories. As long as there is a place with the Kura Kuka people, life will become more and more exquisite, because they are particularly fond of repairing Decorate the room. Humans also like them very much and will specially make room for them, but the Kura Kuka are not a race that likes to trouble humans. They are small and do not need a large room, so they often live in the attic or under the floor , so it is also called the fairy in the attic."
"In the beginning, Kura Kuka and human beings were the closest partners. There is even a legend in Xipolak that as long as someone lives in the Kura Kuka tribe, the family will always be happy and beautiful. But it is also because of this legend. , the Kura Kuka clan faced the greatest disaster."
"On this day, a drastic change occurred in Xipolak, the war came, and the smoke filled the air. The people who lived here began to flee, and many people went to other places and wandered abroad... The war lasted for ten years, when the new sovereignty was established, Xipol The once prosperous city of Lark has become fragmented. The wandering wanderer always has a day to return home, after ten years of wandering, dragging his tired body back to his homeland, what he sees is the broken house and the moss all over."
"But it's strange, only the houses that were once inhabited by the Kura Kuka tribe are still very intact. When these wanderers who had been wandering for ten years returned home, they found that the Kura Kuka tribesmen were not dead, they were still living. In the original family, waiting for the wanderer to return..."
At this point, Leon Rick sighed softly: "The Kura Kuka people are too pure and kind, they think that the people they used to be are still the people they used to be. However, although people haven't changed, their minds have changed. Especially After a war and wandering for ten years, the Westpolaks have learned a lot and lost a lot."
"They have learned greed, they have learned to fight, they have learned to fight; at the same time, they have lost their friendliness, their innocence, and their happiness."
"The Kura Kuka faced a near-genocide annihilation in the face of such new Xipolak people. Many Kura Kuka were captured, trafficked, and some even because of human jealousy, tortured, tortured.”
"And then, the Kura Kuka people disappeared from the sight of human beings, and also disappeared in the long river of history."
After Leon Rick finished telling the legend of the city he had seen, he said in a low voice, "Perhaps the reason why the house was not damaged in the war is actually because the Kura Kuka people are working hard to repair it, just to wait for the return of the former owner. But Unfortunately… "
"The returnee has turned into a demon." Angel whispered.
Leon Rick nodded: "Kura Kuka's luck is that they believe in and like humans; but their misfortune is also because they believe in humans too much, and humans are the most fickle."
Angel pondered this story, which, according to the logic of human storytelling, could be regarded as an enlightening story, telling us to be good, and warning that war is the source of all suffering.
But... what if it's not a story, it's real
Thousands of years ago, war, Xipolak, Kura Kuka, stories... Angel sorted out the key words one by one, and suddenly, he seemed to think of something.
Angel raised his head: "Cypollak, is it actually Waterglass?"
Leon Rick lowered his head and sighed, "Yes. The Sipolak in the story is the current Waterglass."
"The war a thousand years ago? Was it the war to establish the Fuxu Royal Court?" Angel also recalled that Baal once said that the establishment of the Fuxu Royal Court was only a thousand years old.
Leon Rick nodded: "If there is no accident, it should be. After the establishment of the Royal Court, the former Xipolak was renamed Waterglass by the king at that time..." At this moment, Leon Rick shook slightly Shaking his head: "Forty years ago, when I was only sixteen years old, I took over Waterglass. The folk customs at that time were actually similar to those of the Xipolak people in the story. It took forty years to improve, build houses, open up people's wisdom, and popularize morality.
"But now, when I was supposed to be happy, something like this happened. The old woman has a daughter, and her only daughter, actually..." Li Onrick said at this time, and tears filled his eyes: "If you stole my daughter's That little black shadow is the former Kura Kuka clan, does this mean that it is time to repay the debt owed by our ancestors?"
When Leon Rick was about to cry and his reason became clear, Angel shook his head and said, "No."
"Why is that?"
"If it's for debt collection, they won't steal shadows only from blond people." Angel said at this time, and subconsciously smoothed his messy short blond hair.
"Sir, is it really the Kura Kuka who stole the shadows?" Leon Rick pondered for a while, but still asked the biggest doubt in his heart.
"I don't know." Angel remembered Shadow's words last night, and then thought of what the magician once said, Shadow seems to have a soft spot for blondes, but the answer is self-evident: "But, it's very likely. "
"Then what should I do? Where can I find the Kura Kuka clan?" Leon Rick seemed to sense a glimmer of light and hurriedly asked.
Angel didn't answer, but stood up and said goodbye to Leon Rick: "Thank you Earl for telling me, let's say goodbye today."
Seeing this, Leon Rick was at a loss and disappointed. Is there really no way
It was not until Angel completely disappeared into the darkness that Leon Rick covered his face and cried silently.
Just when Leon Rick fell into despair, he heard a familiar voice in his ear.
"If you have the courage to face the wrath of a wizard who can destroy Waterglass, you can come to me."
…
Angel didn't really leave, but used boundless silence to hide beside him. It was the first time he used voice transmission, and he had to see the specific effect.
Looking at Leon Rick's expression, it seems that he has received his voice transmission
"Wizard, what wizard? Is that the magician Baal said?" Leon Rick said loudly.
His shouting made Angel sure that the telephony technique was correct. Angel did not plan to return to Leon Rick, but slowly merged into the darkness and left the Earl's Manor.
Back at the villa in the bay area, as soon as Angel stepped into the yard, he found a strange scene.
Bar and Dodoro were sitting next to each other, and Du Shan was sitting opposite, with a serious face. Dodolo looked ignorant, while Baal lowered his head and did not dare to say a word.
"Why, Baal, are you also planning to come here to study with Dodolo?" Angel walked in.
As if he had met the savior, Barr immediately knelt down in front of Angel, crawling and rolling: "Sir, please take me out, I can't take it anymore."
With tears streaming down his nose, Barr recounted the pain of the morning.
He wanted to leave here, but as soon as he went out, he fell into an illusion and saw the enemy coming to kill him. He cried and made trouble for a long time, and when he returned to the villa, the hallucination disappeared.
He didn't dare to go out, so he could only stay in the villa obediently and wait for Angel to come back.
But at this time, Du Shan came to him and started to scold him. The reason is that when he was crying in hell outside just now, he said some crimes he had committed. The crimes he has committed in the past can be described as indescribable, so he ignored Du Shan at first, and even showed a vicious expression, trying to scare Du Shan away. But Du Shan, relying on her age when she was about to enter the soil, was not afraid of Barr's threat at all, but instead became more and more energetic.
Barr didn't dare to hurt Du Shan, after all, he knew that Du Shan was standing behind Angel. In such a situation where you advance and I retreat, Barr can only listen to the training obediently in the end.
After listening to Baal's cry, Angel couldn't help laughing: "Grandma Du Shan also hopes that you will change your ways."
Barr wants to cry but has no tears: He doesn't want to change his ways at all!
Angel glanced at Du Shan, who was filled with righteous indignation, and then at Baal, who was speechless and asked the sky. He suddenly smiled and said, "That's it, Barr. You'll follow Du Shan these days to protect her and Duo Duo Luo's safety, and you can also learn the principles of life from Grandma Du Shan. I can give you permission to enter and leave the villa."
Barr was shocked and shook his head again and again. He couldn't imagine what kind of experience it would be to be talked about by Du Shan all day long... But Angel's smile made him shudder, and he could only agree with tears in his eyes.
"Since you have Baal's protection, Grandma Du Shan, you can continue to teach according to the original plan tomorrow."
After solving the problem here, Angel motioned Baal to come in with him.
