Chapter 7 The Territory of the Northfields
After that, no scene appeared in Lu's dream, and not long after, Lu opened her eyes.
"Ugh..." Lu took off the blanket on his body and inhaled the cold air. At this time, it was already morning. He rubbed his eyes and recalled the dream just now.
Scene after scene is both familiar and unfamiliar. Who is he? What is the scene he saw in his dream before? It is like a dream that he has experienced personally. What is going on?
Is it a dream? Or is it my previous personal experience? If it is really my own personal experience, then where is the sister who is with me? And what is going on with my ability?
Later, Lu tried to recite the incantation he saw himself reciting in his dream, but nothing happened.
"It seems like it's just a dream."
Lu stood up and moved his body. Because of the strange dreams just now, he no longer wanted to sleep. Then, he put on his black coat again, but at this time, there was something
It fell from his coat and fell to the ground.
"This is..." Lu picked up the thing that fell on the ground, and then found that it was a pendant. Lu felt very strange. When she woke up in the forest and found that she had lost her memory, she had checked herself, and there was no trace of her body at that time.
He didn't find anything like this on his body. Then he took off his coat again and checked it aside. He found that there was another hidden pocket in the coat's hidden pocket. I'm afraid he just touched it roughly at that time.
, but I might have overlooked this.
Lu looked at this pendant at this time. Although this kind of pendant has a very ordinary shape, the workmanship is still quite exquisite, and from the design point of view, it should be able to store photos inside. He wanted to give it a try and take a look inside.
Could it be that there were some photos stored there? As a result, I opened the pendant and found that there was indeed a small photo inside the pendant.
In the photo, there is a group photo of a boy and a girl holding hands, smiling brightly. The boy in the photo is exactly the same as the one Lu saw in her dream, and the only difference is that Lu in the photo,
His eyes were full of brilliance, unlike himself in the dream. There was no brilliance or hope at all in his eyes. All he had was darkness and despair. And the girl in the photo should be his sister.
Well, when Lu looked at the girl in front of her, she felt like she had seen her before, and it was just recently.
Where had he seen this child? Ever since he lost his memory, he had almost never seen a girl with blond hair. Wait, blond hair? At this time, a thought suddenly appeared in his mind.
After losing his memory, he had indeed seen a blond girl, and wasn't this girl by his side?
"Alice?" That's right. The girl in the photo is indeed somewhat similar to Alice. No, if the girl in the photo is really Alice, judging by the age in the photo
, she should be around 5 or 6 years old. If she grows up for about 10 years, she should look similar to the Alice in front of her.
Lu couldn't help but observe Alice's appearance again. At this time, Alice had no sign of waking up. In fact, she couldn't blame Alice, but because she woke up too early.
Lu looked at her sleeping face like an angel, and her face couldn't help but turn red. Finally, Lu's eyes stayed on Alice's lips. Her cherry blossom-colored plump lips were shining with luster.
And Lu couldn't take her eyes away from her lips that were like rosebuds.
Alice is so beautiful - such a feeling came to his heart. But he soon realized that his consciousness had shifted to a strange aspect at some point, so he shook his head and put his thoughts away.
Come back and compare Alice's appearance with the girl in the photo.
After careful observation, Lu found that from her appearance, she could indeed find some features of the girl in the photo.
"No way? Could it be that... Alice... is my sister?"
But then, he felt that it was impossible. Alice was the daughter of a nobleman, and if there really was such a brother, it was impossible for Alice not to recognize him.
In the end, it was probably just a matter of similar appearance. Lu came to this conclusion.
Lu temporarily put aside his thoughts, but in his heart at this time, Alice's status was much higher than before. In fact, when he first met Alice, Lu had an inexplicable feeling towards him.
It was a natural and subconscious affection, and his subconscious reminded him that he must protect Alice.
Then, being careful not to wake her up, Lu quietly walked to the wall and opened the small window in the corner of the room. The sunlight shining through the window happened to shine on Alice's face, and therefore, Alice
Si opened her sleepy eyes.
"Well...good morning...Lu...you got up so early."
"Good morning, Alice." Lu just answered Alice hastily. After all, his mood could be said to be very messy now.
"What's wrong with you? You look weird?"
"No, it's nothing. I'm going outside first. You can change your clothes first, otherwise you can't change your clothes while I'm here."
Immediately, Lu opened the door and walked outside. Before he walked out of the door, he did not forget to take away the black sword he had always carried.
After Lu waited outside for a while, Alice opened the door and walked out of the room. Then, the two of them were going to go downstairs to have something to eat together. When they were walking on the stair tread, Lu casually asked: "
Well... Alice, I want to ask, have we met somewhere before?"
When Lu asked this question, she did not tell Alice about her pendant.
"No, I haven't met Lu before. The time I was rescued by you in the forest seemed to be our first meeting."
"Oh, wait a minute..." Halfway through her words, Alice suddenly paused, and then started to look at Qi Lu's face.
Lu was startled by Alice's actions and asked hurriedly: "You...what are you doing? Alice."
"I don't know either, but after you asked me that just now, I feel like this is really not the first time I've met Lu."
"Is it true? When?"
But this time Alice shook her head. She said that although she seemed to have seen Lu, it seemed to be just an illusion. In the end, she herself had a headache, and Lu could only let her see her reaction.
She should stop thinking about it.
The two of them came downstairs and casually ordered some things for breakfast in the store. After breakfast, Alice settled the bill, although the store manager said many times that if Alice stayed in the hotel, she did not need to pay.
Money, but in the end Alice paid the store manager for accommodation and breakfast, and said that if the store manager didn't accept it, he would not give her face. When Alice said this, the store manager had no choice but to accept it.
Afterwards, Alice and Lu continued walking towards their home.
The two of them walked for a long distance. Suddenly, Alice pointed ahead and said: "We will be there soon. Look, you can see the city wall from there."
Lu glanced in the direction Alice pointed, and she could indeed see stone city walls and a large-scale castle. When she got closer, she saw that the castle in front of her was not built as a magnificent castle symbolizing authority, but
Simple and sturdy architecture with a focus on practicality.
After walking for a while, the two came to the stone-paved street. After walking for a while on the street, they finally saw the city gate. There were dozens of guards lined up in front of the city gate to greet the Northfield family.
's daughter.
"It seems that he has noticed us. Father seems to be ready to greet us." Alice suddenly pressed her forehead, as if she had a headache.
"She is indeed the daughter of the Northfield family." Looking at the large welcoming team, Lu couldn't help but express her feelings.
"I think it's a bit overdone. It's such a huge waste of time and money."
"But from my point of view, they don't seem to be unhappy at all."
Indeed, no one in the welcoming team seemed to complain. They all seemed to come out willingly to welcome Alice back. From this, we can also see how much Alice is loved by the people in the territory.
Already.
"Let's go, Lu."
"Oh, okay." So, Lu followed Alice and walked into the castle of the Northfield family.
