"Speaking of which, why are you here so late?" Du Dian asked curiously.

Hearing him ask this, Jenny was a little excited, and said: "Remember what I told you last time, I am studying the law, and the court will recruit apprentice priests in a few days, I am hurrying up these few days Tutoring, I just came out of the house of an old priest who has a good relationship with my family. I didn’t expect it to rain halfway there, and the car broke down. Fortunately, I met you.”

"So, we are quite destined." Du Dian laughed.

"Fate?" Jenny was puzzled.

Only then did Du Dian realize that the meaning of the word "Fate" comes from the concept of Buddhism. Naturally, there is no Buddhism in this world, so he quickly explained: "The meaning of Fate... Well, it is that two people are arranged by the God of Light, and they are in an accidental relationship. Meeting by chance is called fate."

"Two people arranged by the God of Light?" Jenny heard Du Dian's explanation, her face blushed immediately, and she glanced at Du Dian secretly. Seeing that he didn't notice her abnormality, the temperature of her cheeks faded slightly, and said curiously: " What about you, why are you here?"

Du Dian said: "I'm going home."

Jenny came to her senses, and suddenly thought of something, with excitement and anticipation on her face, she said, "Have you ever been outside the wall? How is it? How is the outside? Is it really like what my father said? Is it dangerous? "

Du Dian looked at the twinkling lights in her eyes, and suddenly thought of the girl's longing words that night, he sighed secretly in his heart, but smiled on his face, and said: "The outside is the same as you think, there are vast Grasslands, towering mountains, and blue seas."

"Really?" Jenny asked in surprise.

Du Dian nodded and said: "Well, although it is a bit dangerous, if you can see the beautiful scenery and the vast world, what is it to experience a little danger?"

"I thought so too." Jenny was touched, and said with longing: "I really hope that one day, I can see the scenery outside the wall."

"Yes!" Du Dian said firmly.

Jenny sighed, her face darkened, and she said, "Unfortunately, I can't go out."

Du Dian said slowly: "Even if you don't have to go out, you can still see it."

"Really?" Jenny looked at him in surprise, with some expectation.

Du Dian said: "If the giant wall disappears, it will naturally be seen."

Jenny was startled, shook her head and said, "The giant wall protects us. If the giant wall disappears, we will live in danger."

The corner of Du Dian's mouth moved, but he didn't say anything.

"Tell me about things outside the wall." Jenny said to Du Dian.

Seeing her staring at him, Du Dian felt a little hot on his face, coughed lightly, and said, "Yes, uh, yes."

"What are you stuttering about?"

"Ahem, it's cold."

"Are scavengers still afraid of the cold?"

"As long as people are afraid."

"Okay, I won't interrupt, you can continue." Jenny rested her cheeks in one hand, looked at Du Dian with one hand, and said expectantly.

Du Dian felt a little stiff all over his body, and his muscles tensed uncontrollably. He coughed dryly and said, "Okay, let me tell you what I have seen. Let me talk about the mountains first. The mountains outside are very tall and the trees are lush. There are many cute little animals, including rabbits, foxes, and little squirrels... ”

"Are there no monsters?" Jenny interrupted.

Du Dian nodded and said, "The monsters are all elsewhere."

"where?"

"Well, it's a very chaotic place, but it's far away from the mountain I've seen."

"Well, you continue to talk, I want to hear."

"There are waterfalls on the mountain... peaceful and friendly primitive people live..."

In the rainy night, the torrential rain poured down, and the carriage was driving slowly. The young knight riding beside the carriage had his armor washed many times by the rain, and the clothes inside the armor were slightly soaked. He pushed his horse forward and heard the young lady's laughter from time to time in the carriage. The sword eyebrows under the armor frowned slightly, but he didn't say anything, and followed closely in silence.

"There are a lot of fish and shrimps in the sea, and there are clams that can grow pearls in their bodies... well, pearls are a kind of snow-white beads, beautiful like diamonds, very round, and very smooth..." Du Dian said from the mountain to the sea. Accompanied by the torrential wind and howling rain outside the carriage, his immature voice seemed extraordinarily peaceful.

Jenny rested her chin on her palm and listened carefully. When she heard about the pearl, her face showed a bit of surprise and yearning, and she said, "I really want to see the pearl you mentioned."

Du Dian smiled and said nothing. Due to the biological changes caused by viruses and nuclear radiation, there are no pearls in the wall, and the pearls left outside the wall in the old era have long passed the shelf life and rotted unsightly. Therefore, the wall People inside don't know the existence of pearls.

At this time, the speed of the carriage gradually slowed down, and with two hisses of flattery, the carriage stopped completely.

"Miss, we're here." The coachman said cleverly.

Jenny came back to her senses, she didn't expect to be home in a blink of an eye, she glanced at Du Dian, a blush flashed on her face, and said, "Thank you for sending me back."

"Just by the way." Du Dian said.

Jenny's cheeks became even redder. At this time, the knight outside the vehicle had already jumped off the horse. Maintaining the demeanor of a knight, she knocked on the door lightly and said, "Miss, you're home."

Hearing the urging, Jenny let out a "huh" and opened the car door, only to see that the young knight had already put up an umbrella and waited outside. She immediately lifted up her skirt, got out of the car, and said to Du Dian again: "Thank you for the story you told me .”

"Story?" Seeing that he was seen through, Du Dian blushed a little, and said, "Just as long as you like it."

"I like it very much." Jenny's face was flushed, she hesitated, and said courageously: "And thank you for the poem you wrote to me last time, I have always treasured it." After finishing speaking, her face was hot, and she dared not Look at Du Dian, turn around and run away quickly.

The young knight hurriedly held up his umbrella and chased after her to cover her.

Du Dian was stunned, the last poem? Immediately thinking of the poem my sister had read, I thought to myself, it seems that poetry and drama are indeed the favorites of nobles.

He didn't think much about it. After Jenny entered the castle manor, he told the coachman, "Let's go."

Now that the rainstorm has stopped, the stagnant water flows into the sewer along the street. The drainage system in the commercial area is often repaired, which is completely different from the flooding of the slum area when it rains.

The rain stopped, and the carriage turned around and drove at full speed.

Du Dian was sitting in the carriage, and the air was still wafting the faint body fragrance of the other party. He could smell that the other party did not wear perfume, it was a natural faint body fragrance. Looking back at the previous scene, his face couldn't help showing a little Smile, there is a warm feeling in my heart.

Suddenly, he thought of Jenny's words, and thought, "The court will recruit apprentice priests in a few days? I don't know if I can pass the assessment with my legal knowledge."
