Chapter 1612: little movement

Qingshui Bieyuan is the largest villa under the name of Earl of West Green Jade. It is built beside Qingshui Town in the central area of ​​West Green Jade. If the villa area and surrounding mountains and forests belonging to the villa area are counted, two-thirds of the entire Qingshui Town is The land belongs to the Qingshui Garden, so some people joked that the reason why such a Qingshui Town was built in the depths of the West Green Jade Forest was entirely to serve the owner of the Qingshui Garden.
Although the Count of West Green Jade is the nominal owner of Qingshui Garden, in fact this garden belongs to the earl's daughter, Devina, the light of West Green Jade, and the reason why this villa was built was also for this Countess. On the day the villa was built, the Countess has been living here. No matter the servants and workers in the villa, or the townspeople in Qingshui Town who serve the villa, in their hearts, Devina is the villa. their masters, and their masters.
Just like the vast majority of the townspeople in Qingshui Town, Lawson Bob, the housekeeper of Qingshui Garden, also moved here from other places after the establishment of Qingshui Town more than ten years ago. He is also relocating like other townspeople in the town. After here, he was recruited by Bieyuan and became Bieyuan's servant, dedicated to serving their master Devina.
Over the past ten years, he has gradually been promoted from an ordinary servant to the housekeeper of Bieyuan, and has become one of Devina's trusted subordinates. This is all because he abides by the basic rules of being a servant, that is, besides his own Don't bother about other things, no matter how bizarre they are, turn a blind eye, and don't listen to them, just like what's happening in the pavilion by the pond right now, even if he sees it, before Devina gives clear instructions, he There are no plans to go to check the situation.
He had known about Devina's unseen friend long ago, when he was a valet in charge of serving dishes and delivering food, and he saw how Devina was moving towards a pile of air. He spoke as if there was something invisible in the air.
At that time, he was just extremely pitiful for the beautiful and kind little girl in front of him. Even though this little girl has a family background far beyond ordinary people and doesn't have to worry about life problems all her life, she will never be able to see anything like ordinary people, nor can she be like ordinary people. Ordinary people usually walk normally, and they are even more unable to make friends like normal people. Since childhood, they have lived in the depths of this forest far away from society, surrounded by servants and subordinates, so that this little girl is so lonely that she begins to create a false image in her mind. friends.
It may also be because he saw Devina's secret, but he kept his mouth shut strictly in accordance with the rules of servants, and did not reveal any information to the outside world. After a month, he was upgraded from a lower-level servant to a housekeeper. As a steward assistant, he specially assists the villa steward in handling some internal affairs of the villa. Until the steward retired two years ago, he successfully took over the role of steward.
Even if he took over the role of housekeeper, Lawson still abides by the servant code and will not talk too much about anything related to Devina, but many things are no longer what he wants to do when he is in his capacity, especially In the past two years, Miss Devina has been sick more and more, and she doesn't care about the people around her when she is sick. Many people in the villa already know that Miss Devina has an invisible friend.
Although he used his power to block the mouths of the servants in the villa as much as possible, so that the news could not reach the countess, but there is no airtight wall in this world, even if he has done the best, still Some news leaked out, and the Countess knew about Miss Devina's current situation. Just now he had received the news that the Countess had secretly came to Qingshui Town and was coming to the villa. It seemed that it was for Devina. Miss is sick.
"Lord Lawson, do we need to do something?" When Lawson felt a headache for the arrival of the Countess, one of his assistants stepped forward and asked in a low voice.
"What?" Lawson gave his subordinates a cold look and said, "What can we do?"
The housekeeper's assistant cautiously pointed to Miss Devina, who was talking to the air in the pavilion, and said, "Remind Miss..."
"Remind Miss?" Lawson glared at his subordinates and said, "And then be held accountable by Madam?"
The assistant immediately lowered his head when he heard the words, and everyone else stopped talking. They knew very well that although their master was Miss Devina, the person who hired them was the Countess. Just being reprimanded, or losing your job, and doing the right thing with the Countess is a deadly thing. The once prestigious West Green Emerald dignitaries are the best proof, and now those people have become a pile of graves.
At this time, the captain of the guard in charge of the security of the main building area of ​​the villa pushed open the door and walked in, and said to Lawson, "Lord Lawson, Madam's carriage has entered the front door."
"Let's go! All of us go to the main entrance to meet the madam." Lawson heard the words and immediately ordered others around him, but when he reached the door, he paused again and said towards his assistant. : "I'm talking about everyone except for the protection of Miss Devina, including the maids who are responsible for serving Miss Devina outside the pavilion. Do you understand?"
The assistant was stunned for a while, and quickly understood what Lawson meant, nodded, and said, "Yes, I understand, Lord Lawson."
As he spoke, he separated from Lawson, went to the open space near the pavilion, and loudly ordered the maids and servants who were waiting there, ready to wait for Devina's call, to line up at the main entrance of the villa in the front yard, and For fear of not being able to hear the same thing from the pavilion, the voice was very loud. Even if the maids and male servants were not clearly instructed to wait in line, anyone with a little command would know that the servants in the villa were waiting in line except for those who were already there. Apart from Miss Devina of the villa, there is only the Countess, the real owner of the villa.
Although the housekeeper's assistant had made his actions as conspicuous as possible, it was very likely that Devina in the pavilion was completely focused on another matter that was very important to her at the moment.
"What did you just say?" Devina widened her jewel-like eyes, looked at the magical light man in front of her, and said in a very excited tone: "What you said is true, can you heal me?"
"Yes." Leo responded briefly.
If someone else said this, Devina would not believe it at all. In the past few years, her problems have been seen by countless people, and even more than one Archbishop of the Church of the True God has come. He used the strongest healing magic in his church, several of which could even save people who were dying, but falling on her not only did not heal her body, but made her feel even more pain, so For her, there is no extravagant hope of curing herself. She only hopes that her life will not be so painful and that her friends can always stay by her side to accompany her.
Now a stranger suddenly said something that could cure her. While she was instinctively suspicious, she also had an inexplicable trust in Leo. She felt that Leo was not just talking, but that he could really cure her, and let her have The reason for such confidence is not only the tree demon Lutaxi who can really relieve her physical pain, but more importantly, Leo's current form and how this form makes her feel.
After the serious illness that nearly killed her, Devina became completely blind and couldn't see anything at all. After so many years, she had long forgotten what the things outside her were like. However, at this moment Leo appeared in front of her in the form of a light man, allowing her to "see" things in a real sense again, and more importantly, when she looked at Leo carefully, she was able to see from the edge of his light man form. The Mohu Light and Shadow of Mohu saw some scenes, and those scenes were the scene of the pavilion where they were now. Although the image was very Mohu, it was a feeling she had never experienced in the past ten years, and she also saw a little bit of it. Hope to restore sight.
In addition to Leo allowing her to "see" things again, Leo's light human form also gave her an inexplicable intimacy. This intimacy was like seeing a very close relative. This kind of intimacy made her have a very strong sense of trust in Leo, and felt that Leo could be trusted, no matter how absurd what he said, it was just as credible.
"What do I need to do?" Driven by this strong sense of trust, Devina didn't ask Leo more about his ability to heal herself, but asked herself very sincerely how to cooperate.
Contrary to Devina's trust, it was the tree demon Lutassi. She put her hand on Leo's shoulder and asked Leo very seriously, "Aren't you talking nonsense? You can really save Devon. Na?"
The tree demon Lutaxi's distrust of Leo is also very normal. After all, after so many years, she has also thought of various ways to treat Devina's problems, but in the end, she tried her best to soothe Devina. pain on the body.
After turning on the bloodline memory, she discovered from the knowledge in her brain what might have caused Devina's abnormality, and found some corresponding methods.
It's just that those methods can only be done after returning to Luyuan, because she can't use those methods at all with her current strength, because those methods require too much power, and she can't afford them now. of.
It was precisely because she knew the cause of Devina's blindness and paralysis, and how difficult it was to treat, so when she heard Leo suddenly say that Devina could be cured, she instinctively doubted Leo's words. Even though she knew that Leo must have something special because of White Deer's orders, she still thought that Leo's ability was not enough to heal Devina.
However, in the face of the questioning of the tree demon Lutaxi, Leo seemed very calm, he didn't even refute the other party's plan, just said to Devina: "You don't need to prepare anything, just to remind you that during the treatment, you will It is very painful. This pain is no less than peeling your skin and cutting off your flesh. You must endure this pain and stay awake throughout the treatment. Follow my instructions and cooperate with me to complete the treatment step by step. Otherwise, once you lose consciousness during the treatment, what awaits you is not only the failure of the treatment, but even possible, no, it should be said that you will definitely die."
The other two people in the pavilion fell silent when they heard the words. Obviously, they were frightened by Leo's words. In their opinion, no matter how dangerous the treatment was, it was only a failure of the treatment and returned to the original state, but now Leo told them The result of failure is death, which made both of them have to think about it. Devina, who was very excited just now, suppressed the urge to immediately agree in her heart, and calmly considered whether she should take this risk.
Just when both of them were in deep thought, Leo suddenly said again: "I think you should find someone to discuss it now."
Devina didn't understand the meaning of Leo's words at first, and looked up at Leo in confusion, but then the sound of footsteps from a distance made her realize that someone was approaching the pavilion, and there were still a lot of people.
This made her frown involuntarily, but soon she thought of something, and a look of surprise appeared on her face.
She knew very well that the people in the villa would definitely obey her orders. She kept them away from the pavilion by herself. They could not approach without hearing her orders. They could never disobey their orders. The only explanation for the situation is that another person with more authority has cancelled his order, and the only person with such authority in this villa is her mother, the Countess of West Green Emerald.
Sure enough, as many footsteps stopped not far from the pavilion, the only sound of footsteps entered the pavilion, and a familiar aroma also got into Devina's nose.
Devina took the initiative to ask at this time: "Mother, aren't you patrolling the territory with the palace minister? Why did you suddenly come to Qingshui Garden?"
The Countess was not surprised that her daughter was able to distinguish her identity even if she could not see the things around her. She walked up to Devina, sat on the soft slump, and reached out to remove a strand of hair that fell from Devina's forehead. Leaving the back, he said with concern: "When I heard the news about you, I immediately stopped the inspection of the territory, and came here to verify the authenticity of the news, Devina, tell me honestly now, did you show up? hallucinations?"
"A hallucination?" Devina immediately understood the reason for her mother's sudden arrival. She was not surprised by this. In fact, she deliberately showed her behavior to talk to the tree demon Lutasi in front of people, and she had planned to let her own The mother knew about it, but she didn't expect her mother to know about it much later than expected. It must have been someone in the villa who helped her hide it.
"Invincible begins with the sacrifice of ancestors"
"Mother, you misunderstood!" Devina shook her head and said, "That's not an illusion, I really have a good friend, she's by my side right now, but you can't see her, nor Can't hear her voice."
