Lu Lin wanted to refuse, but Lu Chen directly stuffed the creamy end of the rye bread into her mouth.

"I've been hungry for a long time, so I shouldn't eat too much, sister, eat it."

Lu Chen found a reason.

In fact, with his current situation, he no longer needs to rely on food to supplement his strength.

Of course, there is energy between heaven and earth in the Land Abandoned by God, but the energy like aura is relatively thin, and it is enough for daily needs.

Seeing that her younger brother not only regained his sanity, but also was so considerate, Lu Lin no longer refused, and tasted the fragrance of the cream carefully.

She ate slowly. After eating the rye bread with a lot of cream, Lu Lin put the potato she hadn't eaten yet on Lu Chen's plate.

The two smiled at each other and wiped out the food on their own plates.

When the rest of the rye bread was about to be eaten, Lu Lin carefully wiped off the cream on the plate with the small piece of rye bread, and put it in her mouth, showing a satisfied feeling of fullness on her face. The pale face also recovered a bit of blood.

She looked at Lu Chen who was sitting there intact, and felt unreal for a while, as if her brother was actually gone, and the other party was imagining it by herself.

Lu Lin got up and packed the plate, because there was no complicated meal, she simply washed the cream off the plate and put it in the closet.

She looked back at Lu Chen who seemed to be in a daze, and whispered, "I'm sorry."

Lu Chen was stunned for a moment. He didn't understand what this meant. Is there anything wrong with Lu Lin's predecessor? She is a perfect sister.

"No... It's nothing. After a few days outside, I must be very tired. Let's rest early."

A trace of panic flashed in Lu Lin's eyes, and she turned around.

She thought that her brother would disappear and leave because that night three days ago, what she had done was discovered by the other party.

Lu Chen was a little puzzled, but he didn't ask any further. Sitting by the still-warm fire, he quietly pondered the things that he should first understand about this world.

After turning off the kerosene lamp, Lu Lin opened the door, took the toiletries, and went to the shared bathroom. After getting ready to wash up, she began to rest. She had been absent from work for three days, and hoped that the boss would listen to her explanation tomorrow.

Lu Chen sat by the window. To the south was the endless darkness of the slum, and to the north was the brightly lit Shangcheng District.

In today's era, the Sistine Empire still has not entered the life of steam machinery, and maintains a traditional but backward way of life. The main lighting method is kerosene lamps, and the heating is the fireplace.

And kerosene lamps burn about a penny of kerosene every three hours, so poor families can't afford them.

The reason why Lu Lin's siblings have kerosene lamps at home is because Lu Lin occasionally has to rush documents after returning home. She also needs to deal with emergencies at night.

At the end of the first floor of the rental house, there is Gonggong's bathroom. The poor have no nightlife. When night falls, all they can do is wash and sleep.

Today, perhaps, the siblings had an early dinner, and the bathroom was empty, so there was no need to line up.

The window of the bathroom opens to the north, reflecting the lights in the upper city, bringing a hint of light to this dim environment.

Lu Lin rinsed her cheeks with cold water from the faucet. After a brief wash, Lu Lin put her hands on the table and seemed to be a little weak. Using the dim light, she looked up at the pale face in the mirror.

In those eyes surrounded by dark circles, the whites of the eyes were bloodshot, revealing countless exhaustion.

The noise in the distance seems to be far away from this quiet bathroom, and in the dim light, the face in the mirror seems to be changing.

In the mirror, she seemed to see a vision, repeating what happened that night.

In the small room, the woman got up from the blanket on the ground, wearing pajamas, her hair was disheveled, covering her eyes.

She stood in front of the bed, stopped for a long time, and slowly stretched out her hands to the neck of the young man who was breathing steadily.

Slowly, slowly, she began to exert force until the other party opened his eyes, stared at her tightly, and looked at her.

The strength of the woman is increasing, and the man begins to struggle because of the pain of suffocation. His eyes are wide and white, looking at the woman, a painful whimper comes from his throat.

It seemed that there was a strength and determination in the woman's thin hands, pressing the man to make him unable to get up. She increased her strength while crying and roaring.

When the man's struggle was about to stop, the woman slowly withdrew the strength on her arm, stepped back suddenly, and sat on the ground gasping for breath.

And the man coughed continuously on the bed, looking at the woman sitting beside him in horror, but it seemed that after a while, he became confused again, muttering words and speaking incomprehensible words.

The woman helped the man to put the quilt back on, her eyes hidden under her hair, she apologized in a low voice, and then fell asleep again.

Memories spread like a tide, lingering, and the ordinary mirror in front of me was like a magic mirror, constantly repeating those pictures.

Lu Lin held her head in her hands, her head was splitting, she finally squatted down slowly, and gasped under the pool.

Yes, she once wanted to strangle her brother to death with her own hands.

She is a top student who graduated from the public seminary in Noah Province. She is beautiful. She had many suitors in the academy back then, but all happiness was lost to her because she had a crazy brother.

After she stopped, wondering if she regretted it, she went to work as usual the next day, and when she came back in the evening, she found that her brother was gone.

She searched around her residence, but no one was seen, and she felt panic in her heart.

How could I do this to him?

A colleague once asked her if she had ever thought about abandoning her mad brother and starting a new life. She thought about it for a moment before shaking her head with a smile.

She still remembered how cute her younger brother was when she was born. When she could walk, her little hand held the corner of her skirt and swayed on the street.

When he first learned to speak, the first sound of his elder sister was very sweet.

He would amuse himself when he was depressed, he would cook clumsily to cook unpalatable meals and be criticized by his parents, he would…

The reason why he and his parents came to Ocalan, the capital of Noah Province, was not only to travel, but also to visit him who was studying abroad.

When you were young, there were so many beautiful things, that was the person you were closest to, and after your parents died, you were the only relative left.

He once held his hand and said that in the future, he would drive away all those who bullied his sister. When he was a child, he was so cute, heroic, and fearless, but after the disaster, he became a boy who was trembling all day long.

Thinking of the good times in the past, looking at the helpless boy, how could you abandon him?

Lu Lin looked around in the Xiacheng District and asked around, but couldn't find any sign of her younger brother.

Do you feel relieved?

He is gone, you don't have to stick blood on your hands, you can pursue the life you like from now on.

Lu Lin stood up, looked at herself in the mirror, and wiped her face with a towel.

Shamefully, after the initial panic, she was indeed relieved.

She didn't go to work, and she didn't look for it anymore. She just sat in the room in a daze, lying on the bed that she hadn't slept in for a long time. The exhaustion was driving her to sleep.

But she woke up in the middle of the night, because she always woke up at this time.

People are always contradictory and complicated. It takes time to regret before exploring their true heart.

So she went out to search again, but found nothing.

"elder sister."

The voice of the man behind her sounded, causing Lu Lin to shudder, awakening her from her memory and trance.

"Chenchen, the water here is cold. Sister, go back and burn it for you to wash."

After turning around, Lu Lin looked at her younger brother with a hint of doubt in her eyes. My younger brother had been missing for three days, but how could his face be cleaner than her own?

"No, I'm not so squeamish. It's cold outside. Big sister should go back after washing up."

Seeing that Lu Lin hadn't returned for a long time, Lu Chen probed the outside with his spiritual sense, and found that the other party's expression changed in front of the mirror for a while, and then he squatted on the ground and hugged his head in pain, so he came out to check it out.

"Don't worry, your sister, I'm in great shape... Ahe—"

Halfway through speaking, Lu Lin sneezed, a little embarrassed.

Lu Chen urged Lu Lin to go back quickly, while he rinsed himself in front of the faucet at will, pretending to be.

Lu Lin calmed down and tried her best to appear calm in front of her younger brother. She told herself that the bad days were over, and she believed that everything would get better.

Soon after the two brothers and sisters returned to the hut, they heard Mr. Pugins roaring, scolding who used so much water.

"Sister, go to bed, I'll just sleep on the floor."

Lu Chen really couldn't bear to see Lu Lindao who was making the bed.

"How…"

Without waiting for Lu Lin to refute, Lu Chen lay on the blanket on the floor and pulled the quilt to cover it, "Sister should pay attention to your body, you might catch a cold."

Lu Lin was in a trance for a while, her nose was sore, she hummed in a low voice, and helped Lu Chen straighten the corners of the quilt before lying on the bed.

The goddess of the morning embrace is above, thank you for returning my normal brother to me, I will be grateful.

"Sister, I can't sleep, can you tell me you are in the academy..."

Lu Chen wanted to open his mouth to ask something related to the Church of Morning Embrace, theology, etc., but found that the sound of breathing on the bed had calmed down.

This big girl is already asleep.

She didn't even change her clothes because she was too tired.

Lu Chen was silent for a moment, then got up lightly, drawing out the life essence in the round sea, and helping Lu Lin wash his body.

The girl's eye bags gradually disappeared, her slightly wrinkled brows stretched out, her pale skin became ruddy, her slightly old hands that had been frozen by the cold wind returned to their proper appearance, and her whole body was full of youthful luster again.

The two bright moons climbed up, and the bright white moonlight shone on Lu Lin's body through the undrawn window.

Now it seems that this big girl should not be lying when she said that there were many suitors in the seminary.

The face after falling asleep was very weak, with a pitiful beauty, a long black hair casually spread out under his neck and behind his neck, and the eyelashes on his eyes were dense and straight like a curtain. Clerical work, the skin still remains fair, the figure is slender and well developed.

Lu Chen covered the quilt beside him with Lu Lin, who was sleeping deeply without knowing the severe cold, "Good night, sister."

……

"what-"

A scream that seemed to break through the sky at noon.

After Lu Lin got up from the bed, she frantically looked at the sun outside the window, "It's over, I planned to get up early today to go to work and explain!"

Lu Chen stood in front of the pot table, flipping the fish inside. This is what he caught in the Bryus Lake on the outskirts of the city in the early morning. At this time, it was fried and tender on the outside, golden on the outside, sizzling with oil, sprinkled with salt and this The pepper of the world, the simple method makes the aroma explode in this small room.

Lu Lin looked at this scene in surprise and rubbed her eyes, thinking she was still dreaming.

Yes, it's fine if I'm dreaming, that means I'm not late.

But since it's a dream, I don't need to wake up so early, right? After all, this smell is so tempting.

But she looked around and felt that everything was so real, even her clothes were the same as they were before going to bed yesterday.

How bad, I actually fell asleep wearing dirty clothes?

She got off the bed and felt something was wrong when she stood up. Why is her body so light today?

She raised her hand and pinched her face. It was very painful and tender, as if she had returned to her youth before the age of 20. Her long-term writing and housework hands had become white and flawless.

what happened? Why do I look younger?

The fatigue of the past few days seems to have disappeared, and my body is exceptionally healthy.

This kind of feeling is like a person who has been carrying a heavy load for a long time, suddenly throws away the sandbag, and is about to take off.

Strange things happened to her, but she still put her eyes on the pot for the first time, "Where did the fish come from?"

She had seen that kind of fish once in the team building. It was said that it was quite expensive. It cost fivepence a pound. Judging from the size of the fish in the pot, it was probably five or six pounds, right?

She didn't go to the drawer to check the savings, because her savings was only two shillings in total, which included this week's rent.

She was a little worried, her brother wouldn't be out of his mind again, did this fish go to the market to grab it?

"I got up early to catch it in Lake Brius, and I'm lucky."

Lu Chen casually said, he didn't want to eat that rye bread anymore.

Because the energy in this world is thin, it is inconvenient for him to absorb spiritual energy. After the war, he may have to rely on food as the main means of recovering his stamina.

Strange to say, the difficulty limit of this world is very high, and the monsters he encounters are not weak, but why is there not enough spiritual energy?

In the universe that covers the sky, his battles can be described as lasting and extraordinary, because the recovery speed of the soul source of the Martial Emperor Sutra is very abnormal. As long as the spiritual energy of the place is not exhausted, he can fight while making up, and he can fight an opponent without pressure for a year.

But here, because the energy similar to spiritual energy is thin, if he uses his full strength, he is afraid that his soul source will be exhausted after a long battle.

"You still fish!?"

Lu Lin was a little strange. She remembered that when she was a child, she and her younger brother went fishing in the river, but the other party couldn't catch a single one. The fish in Lake Bryus is very difficult to catch, and only large fishing boats can catch them in the depths.
