"You actually dare to go out for private work? Is it the butcher on the street or the smelly farmer who is sweaty? How much did you make tonight? Maybe I have to use rattan to help you learn what responsibility means..."
Yes, Alisabet's "mother" thought that the night when she disappeared was going out to do "private work", which was forbidden in the yard because "mother" had to ensure that she could control every girl.
After that, "Mom" called all the girls and began to implement family law.
When the water-dipped nine-legged whip slapped hard behind her, the pain hit her like a white explosion, but she couldn't even react except that tears jumped out of her eyes uninvitedly.
She could only bear it because in this place people have no power, they are just living objects-that's all.
In fact, she herself didn't understand why she was so fascinated by that giant. Perhaps she herself didn't believe that she was an angel. She just enjoyed the feeling of having a secret that others didn't know, especially when others were posing with a bad face, treating her condescendingly, or laughing at her with a smile.
When the punishment was over, "Mom" rarely asked someone to apply medicine to her and told her that there would be an "important guest" coming soon, which would be a very important reception and she had to keep her vigour.
Alissabet is only numb to this. It has been half a year since "mother" last told her to entertain "important guests". In fact, she is not very beautiful and she is also very thin. Just because she is young - 15 years old, some disgusting guys prefer this.
The last time the so-called "important guest" was said to be a distant relative of the mayor, who worked in the army. A tall and thin man in his forties, and "mother" even made her wear a strange nun uniform. After that, she was tortured for a day and a night, almost dead, and got the little money that she could not buy back even one tenth of her father's land.
She has been saving money to try to redeem her father's land, but she knows that it is far away and "mother" will not let them go unless someone redeems them at a high price. However, there are few such examples. Most girls disappeared silently after they were seriously ill...
Perhaps, her only little fantasy now is that the "angel" has awakened and has a way to save her, or at least... call out her name.
But she was also very scared, afraid that the other party would really wake up, how should she introduce herself to the other party?
What should she say?
When she sneaked into the warehouse again in the morning, she was still troubled by this.
He was still sleeping, and the sun shone through the small trough on the roof above, making him really like the injured princes in fairy tales - just like she had heard countless times, next a kind farmer girl would pass by, pick up the injured prince, take him home for traditional Chinese medicine treatment, and fall in love with the awakened prince, and finally break through the many obstacles to get married...
This is a story she has long disbelief, because at least she must have been an innocent girl when she picked up the prince.
Kneeling beside him, Alisabet picked up the kettle and poured some water for the other person, and wiped his face with a towel, as if he was taking care of his husband. During the day, she saw the other person's armor more clearly. She described the armor in her mind as if it was in full - it must be heavy, large, and gorgeous, worthy of his strong body and handsome face. At that time, he must have been a mighty warrior, knight, or even a king-like person.
However, that question still circulates in her mind. How should she introduce herself?
Angel, have you fallen into the arms of a prostitute?
She can't say...
But at least by the sleeping warrior, she finally gained a sense of security. She was afraid to return to that home and continue to do things she disliked. It might be just her fantasy that made her feel safer, but he emitted heat like a stove, and this warmth made her feel comfortable.
Just as she was thinking about it, she didn't even notice that the other party's eyes were already open and she was staring at her.
When Jacob woke up, he felt a pain all over his body. He realized that some of his bones should have been broken, his armor was almost scrapped, and his life system was naturally not worthy of it. Fortunately, the blood seemed to stop, and then he realized that he was in a dilapidated wooden house.
He remembered that he had a tragic close-kill with the patriarch in the escape pod. After paying the price of being seriously injured, he finally pierced the other party's head, but due to the fight between the two, the escape pod completely lost control...
Later he fell into a coma. Just as Jacob was about to get up to check himself in detail, he suddenly heard the movement outside the door and lay down again.
He wanted to see who saved him and what purpose it was.
However, the result surprised him. He was actually a little girl. She looked like she was fifteen or sixteen years old. She was wearing a gray dress, with beautiful blonde hair and blue eyes, and had thin and pale face, just like his former mother, just like...
But that's just a dream.
The girl then fed him water and wiped his face, which made Jacob a little confused, but at least it could be confirmed that the other party was not hostile.
But the other party seemed to be in a daze. After Jacob thought for a while, his body slightly raised.
"ah!"
This action made Alissabet scream suddenly, and fell backwards and sat on the ground. Jacob also took a breath, feeling his muscles twitching, but fortunately he still sat up.
"You, you...I, I..."
At this moment, Alissabet's head was blank. She had never thought that meeting would become so sudden that she could not even organize her language.
“What is this place.”
After a moment, the other party spoke a strange language. Alisabet once heard a passing painter say that she was curiously asking what language it was, but the other party told her that it was called Gothic.
Alisabet's shoulders trembled slightly by the other party's majestic eyes. She wanted to answer, but couldn't say anything.
Seeing the other party's frightened look, Jacob blinked and realized that he might have scared her. So he relaxed and asked again:
"Imperial citizen, where is this place?"
“Imperial...Citizen..."
Alisabet didn't understand the other person's words, but she felt quite disappointed because he didn't ask her name, but she knew what the other person was asking, so she rubbed the corner of her skirt and whispered:
"It's Beishi Town..."
“How far is it from the city?”
"Two or three hundred miles..., probably, I haven't been there."
"Are there any troops nearby?"
"No...I haven't heard of it."
“Are there any communication equipment?”
"Communication...phone number? Some rich families have it."
