After the Legend Chapter 28: Tears

Minna felt like she had heard an impossible event. Grandpa is so strong, how could he be injured? He has been traveling alone on the mainland for so many years. Whether it is Dragon Island or Demon Realm, he has come over without incident. This time, he went to deal with so many elves to deal with monsters in the snowfield, how could he be injured? ! Aren't those flaming darts the best weapon against Snow Warcraft? The monster I saw that day, although it was very powerful, died quickly under the siege of the elves?

But no matter how unbelievable she was, the expressions of the genie and Joe told her it was true. The elf also told the situation at that time.

It turned out that Xiao Tianjian only had a hundred flaming arrows, and he used a few to prove the effect to the elves, so there were not many left. In order to avoid waste, the elves picked out the four best shooters, equipped with a few good bows from the family's collection, and gloves soaked with the elves' unique antidote grass juice to act as pioneers. It had been going well, but because the number of monsters was larger than expected, after the elves used up the poison darts, there were still a few monsters left.

As for these fish that slip through the net, the Elf Queen's plan is that there is still enough time, so that Xiao Tianjian can make another poisonous arrow, or slowly dig some traps to drag those monsters to death, so as not to cause casualties to the clan.

However, Xiao Tianjian seemed a little impatient, thinking that so many monsters had been killed, and a few of them were nothing, not to mention the time-consuming production of poisonous rockets, and I didn't know how long it would take to solve them, so I personally played. He spent a whole day eradicating them, but in the end he was wounded by a deceitful beast. Although he successfully killed the attacker, he broke two ribs, another leg, and vomited a lot of blood, and is now bedridden, unable to move at all.

Old Qiao said to Ming Na, "Xiao is living in his former house now, and he has to support him for a few months, so he can't send you home. He asked me to take care of you, saying that you can rest assured and wait for him to be well. I'll take you home right away."

But Ming Na couldn't care about it at this time. She thought of the bottle of fire poison juice she dropped, and her request for grandpa to come back as soon as possible, and she regretted it very much. Grandpa broke his rib and broken his leg. It must be very painful, right? How can I stay in the town with peace of mind? She looked at Lao Qiao with tears in her eyes: "Uncle Qiao, I want to see Grandpa, I want to live with Grandpa, I can take care of him."

Old Qiao was taken aback: "This... Ming Na, you are still young." But the elf did not object: "Xiao's house is only a few kilometers away from the royal city, we will have a group of people to clean up the royal city tomorrow, you can Come with us, but the road is not easy to walk." Ming Na hurriedly said, "I'll go, I'm not afraid to walk." She has also experienced a lot with her grandfather along the way, so what's the point of walking.

The elf was noncommittal, but turned her eyes behind Minna and said to Ludlow, who was about to speak, "You can't go, this is the Queen's order." Minna then remembered her new uncle, and turned around. At a glance, I saw Ludlow blushing, biting his lip, then turned and ran away. The elf nodded to Joe and quickly followed.

Old Qiao sighed, pulled the dazed Ming Na to the edge of the long table, and brought out dinner for her. Minna looked at the soup and bread, and suddenly remembered Ludlow: "Xiao La hasn't eaten yet." She wanted to stand up.

"I'll send it to him when I look back." Old Joe took her to sit down, "Xiao Mingna, tell me honestly, is Xiao your grandfather or uncle? What did you call him just now?"

Minna blinked, realizing that she had missed the point again, and she couldn't help but feel frustrated. This is not the first time for her, so be careful in the future.

When Lao Qiao saw her like this, he understood in his heart: "I said, Xiao Mingming has no brothers, where is his niece? I thought you were his daughter, but it turned out to be his granddaughter, tsk tsk, that kid is really..."

Ming Na didn't dare to say anything, she hurriedly bowed her head to eat, just thinking of the injured grandfather, she couldn't swallow. Seeing this, Lao Qiao comforted her and said, "You don't have to worry about Xiao, he's dead, he'll be fine." Ming Na nodded, hurriedly ate half a plate of soup and a piece of bread, and went back to her room to pack her things. .

Old Joe looked at the few human mercenaries who had gathered in the corner and whispered at some point, bowed his head and stuffed tobacco leaves into his pipe while thinking.

Minna packed all her clothes in the room and tied the magic textbook and potion box with ropes - she had seen her grandfather do this before, and she just had to take it on the road tomorrow. But with so many things, can she handle it alone?

While I was worried, there was a "pop" from the window, and it seemed that something was hitting it. Minna ran over to open the window, saw Ludlow standing on a tree outside the house, and whispered, "Get out of the way!" She quickly moved away, only to see Ludlow jumping into the room with a squeak and seeing the ground on the ground. Boxes and packages, he sneered: "Idiot, they are going to ride the silver wolf tomorrow, who will help you get these?"

"Huh?"

"Ah what, just bring a few pieces of clothes, and take other things when he's healed. Although there are no beasts, the elves will move back to the king's city, but the half-elves won't leave."

Ming Na suddenly realized, and hurriedly put the potion box and the magic book back to their original places, only put a few clothes into the small bag, thought about it, and added two bottles of healing potions. Recalling Ludlow's words just now, she couldn't help but ask him: "Xiao La, you said the half-elf won't leave, so what do you do? Will your mother leave?"

Ludlow's heart warmed when he heard her question, but he still had that arrogant look on his face: "My mother is an elf princess, of course she has to live in the royal city, but I will also go back with them, my grandmother said. There is a house near Wangcheng, you can live for me."

Ming Na was very happy when she heard it: "Then when are you going? I heard that Grandpa's house is not far from the Wangcheng, so wouldn't we live very close? Grandpa must really want to see you."

"I told him not to tell him!" Ludlow said angrily, "Didn't you hear me just now? Grandma told me not to go!"

Minna shrank her neck, not daring to speak. Ludlow was a little regretful, his eyes wandered around, and after a long while he took out a bottle and handed it to Minna: "This potion, bring it to your grandfather to drink, it will be fine if you drink it."

Minna took the bottle curiously. I don't know what material it is made of. It looks a bit like wood, but the surface is very smooth. The cap and the bottle are almost connected together. tree branches. She reached out to open the bottle cap, eh? Somewhat tight.

Ludlow grabbed the bottle and glared at her: "Idiot! If you open it, the potion will flow out! This is the holy medicine of the elves, only the royal family has it, it is very precious!"

Minna blinked: "Precious?"

Ludlow raised his chin: "Of course, this is made by mixing the sap of the mother tree and dozens of medicinal herbs. Only one bottle can be produced in a hundred years, and there are only four bottles for the entire elves. This is life-saving. The medicine, no matter how badly hurts, just drink it and it will heal. This bottle belongs to my mother, and she gave it to me because she worried that I would be in danger when I live alone. So you must keep it well, do you hear? !”

Ming Na heard that it was such a precious and useful thing, so she hurriedly took it over and put it away, and wrapped the bottle tightly with her own clothes. Ludlow looked at it, reluctantly satisfied, and waved his hand: "Then you put it away, remember not to tell him I gave it, and don't let him know who I am." After that, he jumped out of the window and left.

Minna had a lot to say to him, but when she got to the window, he had disappeared into the tree.

The next morning, Ming Na was led by Lao Qiao to the edge of the elves in the depths of the forest. The elves were all geared up and ready to set off on the silver wolf. Ming Na looked up at the Silver Wolf who was just a short distance away. It was the first time she saw such a giant beast at such a close distance. She couldn't help but feel a little weak. /

But it's bigger than any monster she's ever seen...

Lucien was the leader of the trip. He frowned when he saw Ming Na. The genial male elf hurriedly said: "Captain, Xiao Tianjian is injured, there is no half-elf there, and there is no one around him to take care of him." Lucien glanced at him, then manipulated the silver wolf to turn around and set off, leaving only one sentence: "You take her with you." The elf hurriedly urged Minna to get on the wolf.

Ming Na hurriedly said goodbye to Old Joe, then grabbed the elf's arm and climbed onto the wolf's back. Silver Wolf didn't have anything resembling a rein on his body, and the elf didn't want to come into contact with humans. She didn't know how to fix her body, so she had to grab the hair on the back of Silver Wolf's neck. Unlike the shiny silvery appearance, the hair was a little hard, and the little hand was poked and hurt. The silver wolf was uncomfortable when she was caught, and shouted loudly, making her tremble with fear.

The elf patted the silver wolf's head indifferently, and the silver wolf flew forward with a bang. Ming Na sat on its back and staggered, only to feel the wind rustling in her ears, and the branches in the woods coming towards her. She couldn't dodge, and after a few blows, she had to bend down. Out of the corner of her eye, she saw the fellow elves sitting on the wolf's back gracefully, deftly avoiding the branches that stretched out along the way, without being hit at all, and she admired it very much.

Silver Wolf's speed was very fast, and they arrived at the Elf King City after only half a day. At this time, Ming Na was already dizzy and her eyes were staring at the stars. Before she could observe the appearance of the elf king city, she was taken by the elf a few kilometers west of the king city and carried off the wolf's back. The elf also threw her a bag and pointed to the front: "Xiao Tianjian lives there, you can go find him." After that, he turned his head and left.

Ming Na panted and looked at the big tree with thick trunk but no branches and leaves in front of her, wondering where does Grandpa live? The tree is indeed as big as a house, but is it a tree, not a house? But thinking of the tree house in Huanling Town, she still walked over, but didn't find any planks on the bare tree.

But when she walked halfway around the tree, she found that it was indeed a tree house. Unlike Ludlow's house built on a tree, it was a house built by hollowing out the entire trunk and had a door. There are windows, and the crown of the tree is the roof. The magic is that the branches on the roof can still grow leaves.

The door is open, and several coughs are heard inside the house. Ming Na hurriedly ran over, and sure enough, she saw grandfather half lying on the wooden bed with a pale face, looking haggard. Her nose was sore, and she rushed over: "Grandpa!" Before she could reach her, she was grabbed by the back collar: "He is injured, don't touch him." It was a gentle female voice, and Ming Na turned her head. Look, it's actually Ludlow's mother, the beauty in white, Fnoya.

She opened her mouth to scream, but thought that Ludlow didn't want Grandpa to know about him, and shut her mouth. Fu Nuoya smiled lightly and said to Xiao Tianjian: "Since someone is here to take care of you, then I will leave first." After that, she turned around and left.

Xiao Tianjian was unable to call her back even though he kept shouting. He turned his head to see Ming Na with an innocent face, and said with a wry smile, "Why did Xiao Mingna come? Didn't I tell you to stay in the town?"

Ming Na lowered her head and asked in a low voice, "Grandpa, is it because I used up that bottle of fire venom juice? Is it because I told you to come back quickly? That's why you Will..." She lowered her head lower: "I'm sorry, Grandpa."

Xiao Tianjian patted her head with a smile: "What does it have to do with you? Grandpa was careless, you don't have to blame yourself. How did you come here? What are you holding?"

Ming Na felt better, so she opened the bag in her hand to show him. It was wrapped in several large leaves, and it was all fruits and plant stems. Xiao Tianjian smiled bitterly: "It seems to be food, there is nothing else here..." He coughed a few times, and then reached out to caress his throat, his face seemed to be very painful.

Seeing this, Ming Na hurriedly found Ludlow's potion from her bag: "Grandpa, drink this quickly, this can heal your wounds."

Xiao Tianjian's eyes began to glow almost as soon as he saw the bottle: "Who gave it to you?! Is it Fonoya?" Seeing Mingna shaking her head, she asked, "Who is that? Tell Grandpa!"

Minna remembered Ludlow's words and shook her head again: "I can't tell, he said he can't tell you." Seeing grandpa looking at her with terrifying eyes, she gave a cold fight and urged him to drink Down.

Xiao Tianjian temporarily suppressed the doubts in his heart and drank the potion. As a fragrant coldness flowed into his body, gradually, a warm current rose in his abdomen, slowly extending to his limbs and bones. He just felt so warm all over his body that he almost groaned. I don't know how long it took, the warmth gradually disappeared, the pain in the chest was greatly relieved, and even the right leg, which was originally immobile, began to itch.

He looked at the bottle in his hand, more certain that it was what he was thinking, and looked up at his yawning granddaughter: "Who gave you this thing? Can't even grandpa say it?"

Minna remembered the secrets she had leaked several times in the past, and shook her head firmly: "You can't say it, he said something that can't be told to you. You must do what you promised."

Xiao Tianjian pondered: "Is that the person who asked you not to talk, or did you promise not to talk?"

Minna tilted her head, as if Ludlow told her not to say it, she didn't agree, but it made no difference: "He's my friend, and he doesn't want you to know, even if I don't agree, It shouldn't be said."

Xiao Tianjian coughed lightly and smiled: "Is it so mysterious? But this kind of medicine only belongs to the elf royal family, how did that person come from? Isn't it true? If it's poisonous, then it's bad. !”

"It won't be poisonous, it's given by his mother, it's..." Ming Na suddenly stopped and glanced at her grandfather, "I'm not going to be fooled by you!"

Xiao Tianjian laughed more deeply: "His mother? So, is she one of the two elf princesses? Aurora is not so kind, I know, it must be your little uncle, tell me, who is it? Leif?" He always felt that the boy was suspicious.

"That's not it, the eldest brother is in his twenties, so he can't be your son."

"But he looks a lot like him. There's no teenage people in town except him."

"Who said no?" Ming Na was triumphant, "The elves grow slowly, they are just like us humans in their teens, so that's why..." She suddenly stopped and saw that her grandfather's expression changed greatly, so she said: Knowing that I missed it again, I was immediately annoyed: "I won't say anything next time!"

Xiao Tianjian didn't know what it was like in his heart. Ludlow was the only half-elf who looked like a few years old. He could see that boy almost every day, but he never suspected that it was his son. He reached out and touched his granddaughter's head, but his mind flew somewhere: "The child, why didn't you tell me?"

After taking the potion, Xiao Tianjian's injury healed very quickly, and he was able to get out of bed the next day. He was about to go to the elf king city to ask about Fonoya's son, but he received an order from the queen first. After telling his granddaughter to boil water, he went to the direction of Wangcheng.

Ming Na had already boiled water once under the guidance of her grandfather last night. Although she was in a hurry, she could still handle it. Everything in this tree house is good, except that they can't have a fire inside, so they can only cook outside. Not far away, a shallow stream flows through. The water is icy cold, but very clear. Ming Na filled a half pot of water, hung it on the shelf, and carefully set the fire.

It's almost September, and if it's in Edonton, the weather is just getting colder, but in the elven forest to the north, the air is already full of chills. Ming Na put on all the clothes she brought, but still felt that it was not warm enough, so she could only go back to the house to get a piece of grandpa's animal skin vest, and put her hands near the fire, and then she felt warm.

The water boiled, Ming Na got up and took out the pot. Suddenly, she heard a gust of wind behind her, and then the sound of the door slamming open. Looking back, it turned out that it was Grandpa who came back, and she hurriedly ran over: "Grandpa, the water has boiled, you..." Seeing the scene in front of her, she was stunned.

Xiao Tianjian sat on the edge of the bed, holding his head in his hands, his face full of daze. Seeing Ming Na come in, he raised his head and asked in a daze: "Ming Na, you say...is grandpa very selfish? Did he do whatever he wanted, but never thought about others?"

"Grandpa..."

"When I wanted to marry Fonoya, I married; I wanted to leave, so I left; I didn't want to live that boring life again, so I didn't come back for twenty years; I heard about my son, and ran back to ask I only wanted to recognize my son~IndoMTL.com~ but I never thought about what to do after recognizing him. Will I stay? No, then why should I recognize him..."

"Grandpa..."

"Ludlow is not like any other half-elf, he is almost an elf, which means he will live to be at least a few hundred years old. If I recognize him, will I have that long? I'd rather If I make my son sad, I have to recognize him, knowing that the elves don’t like me, I have to recognize him, am I being selfish?”

"Grandpa..."

Xiao Tianjian hugged his granddaughter, his eyes were red: "I'm not a good husband, a good father, right? I made your grandma and father suffer, and now I make Fnoya and Ludlow suffer. I still have Feeling aggrieved? Fonoya scolded me well, scolded hard enough, and finally woke me up, sorry, sorry..."

Minna patted her grandfather on the back and watched the hero cry like a child, but she still couldn't figure out what it was for.

Xiao Tianjian had cried this time, and then told his granddaughter to pack up and prepare to go back to Huanling Town. This time, he planned to see his son again. Since the child was willing to give him such a precious medicine, it could be seen that he still had something in his heart. His father, as long as we meet again and confirm the child's mind, he will not be entangled in the future.

In the early morning of the next day, they were about to set off, but Princess Fonoya came with the Lucien brothers and sisters and old Joe who was supposed to stay in the ghost town, and they also brought a surprising bad news.

Ludlow is missing.

Also missing were two young elves under the age of thirty and several human mercenaries. In the room of the mercenaries, Joe found a strand of silver-white hair stained with green blood.

(More late, for word count sake, forgive me...)
