The old man also walked to the door and made sure that the child had gone far away before turning his head to look at the two people in the room.
"She is a very talented child. If she has the chance, she should go to a big city and have a look."
The old man shook his head slightly, his words were full of emotion, and he raised his head slightly as if he was imagining if the girl was born in another country, would she have a better living environment and better educational conditions?
But these things are just thoughts after all.
The old man exchanged some information with Maria and then they separated temporarily.
She and the doctor first took the pack animals to the center of the village and found a place to put them. Then they found a house and moved in.
Soon, it was late at night.
Except for the occasional patrol, the whole world has become quiet...
The night...is getting quieter.
……
I don’t know how much time passed, but the doctor suddenly frowned.
In her ears, a strange melody was the culprit that woke her up.
The sound doesn't fluctuate much... although there are highs and lows, the difference is not far. They contrast with each other and form pleasant music.
"Ok?"
The doctor rubbed his eyes, opened them drowsily, and looked around blankly.
"you're awake?"
Sitting by the window, Maria realized that the doctor had woken up without even turning her head.
She sat sideways at the table, carefully pulled open a corner of the curtain, and looked in one direction.
The faint melody comes out softly in the darkness, and the soft transition is as comfortable as marshmallows.
Maria, dressed in the light and fluttering clothes of a banshee, just looked into the distance. A long breeze blew in from the gap in the window, carefully ruffling her hair and skirt. The light silk fabric outlined her crossed legs, revealing her ankles and feet, which looked strange. Her slender figure and gray eyes were still full of texture under the moonlight.
Even though Maria was just looking calmly, her eyes seemed to hold infinite stories of her own.
This made the doctor who thought he was normal couldn't help but take a few more glances.
Apart from anything else, since the emergence of this new civilization, I really haven't seen any ugly people...
But she quickly patted her face and moved closer to Maria.
"What's wrong? Where does this sound come from?"
The doctor asked cautiously.
But just a few steps out of the bed, she suddenly felt a chill again, and couldn't help hugging her shoulders with her hands.
Maria took a glance and shook her head slightly. She put on her hunting clothes, which she had not changed yet, and moved slightly to the side.
The doctor curiously stuck his head out to take a peek.
Just in the distance, the little girl named Tessie was sneaking around in a small corner, slowly playing her violin.
The melody is delicate and long, which can help people relax to the greatest extent without affecting their sleep.
Obviously, this child is not an obedient little rabbit.
She has her own rebellious spirit...
Although my grandfather said that I would be able to help everyone when I grow up.
But if possible, she still wants to do it now.
The little child didn’t know how to make everyone happy, but she knew that when she played the violin for everyone, everyone would laugh.
So she braved the cold wind, alone in the dark night, playing a small melody that only a few people could hear.
Long and lonely...
"Well, even though she plays very seriously, I still can't quite appreciate it..."
After pretending to listen for a while, the doctor also smiled bitterly and shook his head.
For her, this kind of thing is still too difficult to appreciate.
But she still admired the girl's kindness.
Maria spoke calmly.
“Appreciation always comes from multiple angles…”
"...You sometimes say strange things."
The doctor tilted her head. As a professional science student, although she was also involved in these things, she was not too sensitive about them overall.
Maria had no intention of explaining in detail and just observed in the darkness.
It didn't take long.
A restless figure slowly appeared in her eyes...
361
Chapter 361: A memory point in a lifetime.
"Someone?"
The doctor leaned naturally next to Maria, sat on the table, and looked at the outside world curiously.
Although she didn't understand what the so-called musical art was, it didn't stop her from thinking the tune was nice and wanting to listen to it more.
And just like that, she noticed the direction Maria had been looking at.
The little girl was currently playing her violin at the exit of the alley, just where the moonlight could illuminate her. A little closer to the inside, where the alley was shrouded in darkness, there were several blurry figures approaching.
"Is it the guard?"
The doctor did not have Maria's vision that could see the night as day. She just subconsciously thought that he was the guard in the village who was responsible for night watch, and he came out this time to bring the girl back.
After all, they also knew from what the village chief had just said that it was not safe here now, and it would be better for people like girls who needed protection to rest early.
Besides, the weather is getting colder now. If you go outside in the middle of the night without preparation and stay outside for too long, you may catch a cold.
"No... not."
The doctor's guess was quickly debunked by Maria.
From her perspective, although the sneaky figures were indeed dressed like villagers, their postures and some subtle movements were obviously unnatural.
It doesn't look like what a guard should look like at all.
There must be something wrong with the other party!
"Ah?! The enemy has infiltrated?"
When the doctor heard this, he was so scared that his face turned pale and he couldn't help but move a little closer to Maria.
She has a relatively clear understanding of her own abilities.
She may know more than the people in this world, but that doesn't mean she has any advantage.
On the contrary, her physical condition was frighteningly weak.
Just calculate based on what we saw in Kazdel City before.
A large group of Sarkaz jumped down from a height of five or six meters without any preparation or equipment, and just bent their knees slightly... That's it. If they couldn't run immediately after that, they would be considered to be in poor physical condition.
In the past, if the doctor was not a professional fighter, he would not even dare to think about it.
It can only be said that people are shaped by the land and water they live in. In today's harsh world of Terra, these Terran people are already little supermen even if they are born there.
Compared with these people, the doctor felt that his body was not even as good as a candle in the wind.
If a fight really broke out, she wondered if she would be killed by someone else's careless impact.
"..."
Maria saw the doctor's panic.
She glanced at the other person and shook her head slightly.
"Don't worry...I'm here."
Maria's words were calm, but full of confidence.
When the doctor heard this, he was slightly stunned, then blushed, lowered his head and muttered.
"Why is it the same as the movie I watched before..."
But before the doctor could mutter a few words, she found that Maria had pushed open the window silently.
"Are you planning on... alerting the other villagers?"
The doctor was not surprised to see Maria's behavior... After all, she had some understanding of Maria's cold-outside-but-warm-inside personality.
In this case, whether for the safety of the little girl or for the safety of the entire village, notifying is obviously a good choice.
But obviously, the doctor still underestimated Maria's ideas.
"no need……"
Maria shook her head slightly and looked at the figure of the cricket pupa in the dark.
"There aren't many young people left in the village these days, and their overall fighting capacity isn't very high. Even if I call them out, they won't be able to play much of a role. So, I might as well act alone..."
"Forehead……"
Maria calmly commented on the poor fighting capacity of the current Carpenter Village, vaguely suggesting that her own fighting capacity surpassed that of the entire village.
This made the doctor's expression become subtle.
Come to think of it, she has been in this world for a few months. Although she knows that there is a little superman per capita in this world, she still has no clear concept of their combined combat power. Naturally, she is a little worried about Maria's behavior of preparing to fight a group of people alone.
But Maria just shook her head slightly and said nothing more.
Turn around and silently jump out of the window...
……
In the dark night, Tessi played with all her might.
She didn't know how long she had been playing the violin, nor did she know whether her efforts could make everyone happier.
She only knew that she had to do something.
So I just kept playing here.
The moon in the sky was still hanging in the middle, and it looked unchanged, but the girl could feel that her body had sweated a lot.
The cold wind blew, and the sweat took away the heat from her body, and the coldness slowly seeped into her flesh and blood.
This made Tessi tremble uncontrollably, and her hand playing the violin became a little stiff.
Later, she couldn't bear it anymore, so she slowly put down the violin and rested for a while.
"I'm so lucky today. I didn't get discovered by Uncle Big Potato and Brother Little Potato..."
Tessi squinted his eyes and thought, and made up his mind to play a few more songs and then go back to rest.
The so-called Big Potato and Little Potato are actually the two men who are mainly responsible for security work in the village...
Because of the Carters' unique family concept, as long as they live together, they are all relatives, so the Carters family in a region is often so large that they themselves can hardly tell them apart.
In order to solve this problem, the casual Carters came up with a solution.
That means calling someone by a nickname.
They will give different people different nicknames according to their different occupations and personalities in order to identify each other. Moreover, because of the common characteristics of Carters, a corresponding nickname will often surpass their real name. Sometimes, a Carter often remembers his nickname but forgets his own name.
The girl felt lucky today that she was not discovered by the big and small potatoes and rushed home immediately.
In the alley nearby, a man's voice suddenly rang out.
"Tessi..."
"Woo!"
The little rabbit girl was frightened by this sudden move, and her face immediately became tense.
But then she realized something, and helplessly put the violin behind her, turned around, and looked at the figure in the alley with her ears pricked up.
