After the sound of closed the door, it seemed to drop its curtain.
The surrounding area is very quiet, the windows are open, and there is no insects in the air that Cassia wants to hear. Outside is a piece of dry green grass, bypassing the numerous silhouettes of the building, you can see a huge sand-preventing forest lined up in one corner, and then there are white-gray fault clouds piled up in the sky. The wind is very small, and the clouds may also be rippling infinite ripples like the surface of a lake.
Cassia thought this way, and the big and small puddles on the road after rain that he had seen appeared in his mind. Will the water surface under the breeze at that time be the epitome of the lake surface? He hadn't seen a truly peaceful lake, but had seen a lot of small ponds. Moon Lake, not far away, was not the lake he had hoped in his mind.
The books all describe the blue lake surface as a mirror, and the white clouds drifting slowly across the sky seem to have inadvertently entered the lake world. But is there really a peaceful lake in this world? Maybe no one can tell.
There used to be a group of people who tracked down various lakes. They traveled around different corners of the world, looking for lakes with different scenery and different personalities. Finally they found a huge lake, boundless, without seeing the end of the calm lake. Then they rode a small wooden boat, swaying on the lake, with layers of triangular waves stern. The lake surface was very blue. They said it was the color of the sky. It was so blue that it seemed to be a corner cut directly from the sky, and the waves that came up were the same color.
In the end, the ripples rippling from the stern of the boat were getting smaller and smaller. They melted into the lake and entered another world.
This is the "Blue Lake" book that Cassia loved to read when he was a child. The group of people who pursued the lake, relying on their own efforts and heart to the lake, were finally accepted by the elves of the lake and entered the world in the lake.
After lying on the bed for a while, Cassia felt that she was still in good spirits, and she had time to think about the lake.
was so hungry that he didn't even have the strength to call. When David's old chef pushed the food in the cart, Cassia had already drank all the cold water that was set aside.
At noon, Cassia had the strength to go out for a walk without having to lie in bed. There were no people in the huge house, and David's two young daughters followed him to Green City, leaving only an old chef.
The old chef said that Cara left in the car in the morning, and the owner David was busy with his own business for the past two days, and the time to return became less. In many cases, only Cara will come back once in a while during dinner.
"There must have been a big event in the city. When I was shopping for food, there were patrolling troops everywhere. It was scary." He said, and then took a mouthful of cigarettes. "Don't mind if I smoke. When you carried it back, your face was bloody. In less than three days, you can sit here and chat with me."
"It's okay." Cassia shook his head, "It's not a serious injury, besides, it's all better."
"I really envy you young people, old bones like me. If you accidentally fall, you may only have to lie down until you enter the coffin." The old chef smiled and said, "Maybe you won't be able to enter the coffin, imperial law. It is stipulated that cremation must be required, otherwise the corpse will rot and easily spread diseases, they said."
"The imperial law has too many regulations to bluff people, don't care." Cassia smiled on the side, the old chef's spirit is much more serene than him.
Nothing happened for a day, Cassia walked around the house, seeming to have lost the direction sign, and kept going in circles.
Finally, he took out the two revolver pistols and took care of them like Kara. The so-called maintenance is nothing more than wiping them off, and wiping each bullet with a towel to make it brighter.
Cassia is doing these meaningless tasks very seriously. On a clean tabletop, every bullet looks as sharp as a sword. If possible, each of them represents a life. Nearly 300 rounds of bullets and two pistols made of high-grade metal. After he wiped it three times, the light outside finally became dim.
The hard-to-kill time in the afternoon finally passed by me, but the silent night came again.
After eating a rich supper silently, his digestive system is comparable to a flame furnace, and he quickly obtained a large amount of material and energy from it. On the thin body, the fat that stores energy began to rise again, just like a reservoir used to collect rainwater in the desert.
went back to his room and sat down. For the first time, the bright light made Cassia feel so piercing. He removed the gauze from his hands and applied medicine to each other's palms. The same granulation that was brushed on it is connected together, and the newly grown soft skin can already be seen in some places.
The substances in the four tubes of tranquilizers continue to have a weak effect. The five broken ribs have been joined during his lethargy, and the rest is only to consolidate the healing effect. Their ribs are much stronger than imagined. In the first stage, the density and hardness of the bones will reach the level of real steel, which is different from the weight of ordinary people. Most of the reasons are also due to this. And Cassia only crashed and broke a few ribs in the explosion, one of which was due to the fact that the operation stage was about to transition to the middle of the first stage, and the other was of course the hardness of the bones. It is not easy to break a bone like steel.
Turn on the light and watch the information Carla brought back from Feston until late at night. The light of a street lamp came in through the window, the bugs have disappeared in the past few days, and the light can no longer attract them. The street lamp seems to have become a little lonely, no insects can fly around it all night.
After reading all the information, Cassia drank a glass of juice and went to bed. He was lying on the bed with his eyes wide open and he just couldn't sleep. The newly healed body didn't feel much fatigue, and the spirit should be very tired according to principle, but the moment after the light was turned off, he felt excited that his whole body was burning.
"It's a pity that no one can speak with me." Cassia muttered to herself in the dark, staring at the street lamp outside until she was about to shed tears before closing her eyes with a sigh. But his eyes were still moving under his eyelids, and his spirit was so amazing at this time.
Thinking of this time, Kara, Lee, and Klitsch should have been inside the mine tunnel and started to follow Gustin's mark, and Cassia felt a little lost.
I am not an indispensable member of them, no matter who it is, it is the same. He seems to be a dispensable character, which makes him a little bit shocked. He sometimes feels that he can control the overall situation, but then he realizes that he is just one of the unimportant pieces. Although he gradually deepened his understanding of himself, his growing sense of emptiness swallowed him. From an ordinary civilian teenager to now holding a gun and shooting as an everyday person, Cassia has always come here in a daze. What the military school arranged, he followed suit. He is weak in any aspect, and then takes time to strengthen. Everything looked smooth, but he felt awkward.
Yes, just awkward, he thought.
"But what's the awkwardness. The military school does not charge tuition, and there is a subsidy of 10,000 sacred coins every month. What a good thing. What do you lose here by yourself? I am not a golden person in the first place. It's OK to do it by yourself~EbookFREE.me~ Cassia changed his tone to cheer himself up.
"In fact, no one is looking forward to myself, everything is my own delusion." He continued, suddenly feeling better. "Now just think about living intact in every mission."
With this feeling, Cassia fell asleep.
The next day, doing things the same way, Cassia started to do some simple recovery exercises in the recovered spirit.
By the third day, Kara and the others still did not come back, and Cassia's palm was basically healed. He began to practice shooting and stabbing, and occasionally recalled fighting and breathing techniques.
On the afternoon of the fourth day, David came back and brought back new supplementary medicines. This was done by David when Carla left.
He told Cassia that a commercial airship would come to Gerun Oasis in the afternoon of tomorrow and stay for a few days. He wants to take the opportunity to sell more jewelry, he will be very busy in the future and there will be less time to come back. If you have something to do, just leave it to the old chef, he said, and leave in a hurry.
Cassia watched the shadow of David leaving disappear, and suddenly felt that it was great to live for the small goal of life like David. Perhaps there will be a goal or ideal thing in an unnamed corner of Cassia's heart. Unfortunately, he still can't describe the specific appearance of this thing at all.
A hand patted his shoulder at this moment, and a long voice came into his ear.
