Lin Ye stepped forward, unable to bear the thought of her waking up to see the devastation in her homeland, so he tore off a piece of black cloth to cover her eyes, picked her up and left this place of trouble.
The king's responsibilities were transferred, the first generation of kings witnessed the destruction of the second generation of kings, and the third generation of kings rose here. From then on, the city of Gur should and must have only one master - Hirui.
On the outskirts of Gul.
Dawn rises, the temperature rises, and the wind howls in the wilderness.
Shireen's eyelashes trembled, and she opened her eyes, and saw a bonfire in front of her. She was wearing a blanket made of the fur of a pack animal, and she was hiding under a pile of sand and rocks, which blocked the strong wind.
These combined, Shireen felt warm inside.
"woke up?"
A male voice appeared.
Xilin's face was slightly confused, and her gem-like purple eyes had a fragile feeling. She blinked and noticed that there was a boy next to her.
He was using a picked-up stick to stir the firewood to make the flames burn brighter.
"Yeah, I'm awake." Xilin said blankly.
Lin Ye smiled at Xilin's somewhat silly answer. While Xilin was sleeping, he thought about how to explain his identity.
"This lady..."
"Father."
Shireen said softly.
Lin Ye tilted his head.
There was silence.
"How did you recognize me?"
"I look different than what you imagined."
"It was my mother who told me that my father's true identity was a young man with black hair and black eyes," Xilin whispered, "She told me everything, including that this world is a lie."
There was another moment of silence.
Lin Ye put his hand on Xilin's head and said softly, "Lilupal is really something. Why would I tell you this?"
"Shirin, are you scared?"
Xilin raised her head, looked directly into Lin Ye's eyes, and said seriously.
"Not afraid."
"you are very brave."
My younger brother is indeed my younger brother.
"Hehe." Xilin smiled foolishly.
Next, Shireen slowly narrated why she had disappeared for six years. That night, she hid in the dark and witnessed Kisra kneeling down to Lilupal who pretended to be herself. Frustrated, she agreed to leave with Lilupal.
Shireen's approach was correct. If she continued to stay in the royal city, Kisla might go mad one day and kill his sister.
Lin Ye asked her where she had been all these years?
Hearing this, Xilin frowned slightly and said in a muffled voice.
"Father, I seem to have... forgotten."
"I remember some things, but I have no recollection of some other things. I have forgotten where I went and what I did with my mother."
Amnesia?
Lin Ye believed that it was Lilupal who returned Shilin to him, and Lilupal must have appeared on the night of the fire in Gul City.
Shilin’s amnesia is most likely related to her. Why?
"Then do you know where your mother went?"
Shilin thought about it carefully and shook her head in frustration.
"It's ok."
"The best thing for me is for you to come back to me. I will protect you."
Shilin nodded.
The topic seemed to end there. Lin Ye added more firewood, and Xilin stretched out her little hand to warm herself by the fire. The only sound between heaven and earth was the empty sound of the wind.
Suddenly, Shireen asked.
"Father, is our home gone?"
"…Gur City suffered a severe blow, but your nephew Xirui will take the responsibility and rebuild it. If you want to go back, this place is not far from Gur City, I…"
"I don't want to go back!" Xilin interrupted Lin Ye and said firmly.
Worried that Lin Ye might misunderstand, Xilin added an explanation in a low voice.
"I want to follow my father... well, let's go find my mother together."
Lin Ye was stunned for a moment, then smiled with relief.
"Okay."
"By the way, father, um, I... have a small request, which is..." Xilin hesitated again, not daring to look Lin Ye in the eye, and was hesitant to speak.
"If you have any ideas, just tell me. Don't be afraid. Do you think I will blame you?"
“…Then father…can we hug you?” Xilin looked at Lin Ye and said hopefully.
"It's that simple?"
"Yeah! It's that simple!"
Lin Ye stood up, and Xilin quickly put down the blanket she was wrapped in and stood up as well.
Xilin stood out among the girls, about 1.7 meters tall, but still a head shorter than Lin Ye. Her face showed both nervousness and anticipation.
Then, there was no action.
Lin Ye had no choice but to open his arms and signal with his eyes, come on!
When Xilin saw the young man open his arms, as always, she was stunned and her nose felt sore.
Although different from what I remembered, my father's appearance had changed as well.
But the father is the father, one of the most important family members to Shilin.
Xilin walked forward and hugged Lin Ye tightly, as if she was afraid that Lin Ye would drift away with the wilderness wind.
Shilin burst into tears, venting her anxiety and longing.
"We clearly agreed, why did you leave without saying goodbye? Do you know that I have been looking for you for a long time..."
"Kisla has changed, my mother has left, and you all have left me, right? Woohoo..."
Lin Ye was silent, and also hugged Xilin with his arms, using practical actions to comfort the girl's pain.
for a long time.
Xilin raised her head, the corners of her eyes were red, her purple eyes were misty, and her face was full of tear marks. She wanted to say something, but she kept choking, and a snot bubble came out of her nose, and her face instantly turned red like a small tomato.
"oops!"
Lin Ye tried to hold back his laughter but couldn't help it.
Seeing this, Xilin became angry and used Lin Ye's clothes as tissues.
Lin Ye didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
This episode also relieved the depressing and depressed atmosphere. Shireen wrapped herself in the blanket again, shrank her head, and thought of herself as a little mushroom in the desert.
At this time, apologizing is useless, and tacitly exposing the incident is the correct approach.
Lin Ye asked.
"Are you hungry?"
“…Gu.”
It wasn't Xilin's stomach growling again, but she was burying her head and making imitative sounds, shyly answering Lin Ye's questions.
Lin Ye took out the raw meat from the system backpack, skewered it, and sprinkled seasoning on it. Xilin watched silently with a smile on her face.
She likes barbecue because it is a rare time for the family to get together and enjoy family happiness.
The king father did not need to deal with official duties, so he showed off his superb grilling skills. The queen mother would also help him, which was very virtuous. He competed with Kisla to see who grilled the best, although Kisla always called him childish. After grilling, they tasted each other's food and found that they both secretly added honey sauce, which made the food taste explosive.
Shireen's barbecue was sweet and spicy, while Kisla's barbecue was salty, and a drink was served next to it.
How happy we were back then.
But more than thirty years have passed.
In Xilin's memory, it was still yesterday.
Is it so easy for human perception to deceive itself?
Keesla is dead.
Lin Ye did not mention Kisla, and the owner of Gul City was replaced by Shirui. Combined with Lilupal's prophecy, Shilin probably guessed the truth.
This result made Xilin very sad.
Although Kisra wants to harm her, kind and gentle Shireen is still grieving the death of her family.
Shireen values her family more than anything else in the world.
To some extent, this is also a defect in her character as a town spirit, but compared with the self-destructive Lilupal and the arrogant and stubborn Kisra, Shireen's defect is as light as a feather.
The real Olmaz was unable to experience the feeling of the passage of time and the changes in people and things like Shireen now.
He was addicted to the rule of slavery and oppression, lingering in the arms of women, and never really paid attention to his children or his first wife.
What kind of ambition does Kisla have towards his humble and low-key adopted son? His willful and capricious daughter Shireen can actually be trained to be a sensible and considerate little girl.
Olmaz didn't know, so he couldn't see through Lilupal's advice in bed, but instead dismissed it as love talk. After all, what was said in bed should not be taken seriously.
So, Olmaz died early.
After a while, the aroma of barbecue made Shilin sniff. The delicious food cured Shilin's anxiety. She temporarily put aside her melancholy and enjoyed the delicious food happily.
Xilin took a bunch of noodles. She looked at Lin Ye standing in the wilderness in a thin shirt and burst into tears. She blamed herself for not noticing it until now. She ate it all in two or three gulps without paying attention to the etiquette of the nobility. Then she stood up and covered Lin Ye with a blanket. She smiled and said, "Father, let me take over. You just wait and eat."
"you?"
"What? Father doesn't believe in my craftsmanship?"
"I believe it, I believe it." Lin Ye agreed.
"Also, your father is not so fragile. He is not the sick old man you think he is."
Lin Ye wanted to return the blanket, but Xilin said she wouldn't be cold as there was a bonfire.
There is a kind of cold that makes your dad feel you are cold.
Finally, Shirin suggested that they use it together.
In fact, the blanket was not big, and even if two people were huddled together, it could not cover them completely. Lin Ye and Xilin looked at each other, and then laughed together.
There is no sexual entanglement, and both parties treat each other as cherished relatives.
Half an hour later, Shilin was full, the sun had risen completely, and the chill of dawn had melted away.
Lin Ye put out the bonfire with sand. He turned around and saw Shilin looking towards the direction of Gul City, looking abandoned.
Before she could say anything, Shilin turned around. Under the golden-red sunlight, the elf girl's face showed no reluctance to leave home, but rather anticipation for the next journey.
Because for Xilin, where Lin Ye is, that is her home.
"Father, let's go find mother!" Xilin said with full energy.
"Well, before that, let's change the name. Are you really not ashamed to call me father?"
"Ah? ...Actually, there is a little bit."
"Call me Lin Ye, my real name."
"...Linye."
"Ah."
