Chapter 429: Maybe I'm Really Your Uncle (Five More Requests for Subscriptions, Asks for Monthly Tickets!) )
When Xiang Lian woke up, night had fallen.
The fire in front of her and the smell of it made her somewhat confused brain sober up instantly!
"Awake? Come and grab a bite to eat. ”
Xiang Lian hurriedly looked over and found that the person sitting by the fire roasting animal meat and fish was actually a person she didn't even know.
Young and handsome, just one glance, Xiang Lian felt her heart start to beat faster.
But she suddenly realized, what about the middle-aged uncle? Why did you suddenly change someone?
Could it be that she was sold again?
Xiang Li's mood instantly fell, and she didn't speak, nor did she eat, just stared at the fire blankly.
She didn't think about escaping, because in this unknown forest, it was impossible for her to run out alive with basically no combat power, and even if she did, what would she do after she ran out?
Just when Xianglin was feeling confused about her future, a grilled fish was suddenly handed to her.
"You've fainted from hunger before, so eat some grilled fish to cushion your stomach first, there's a lot of meat, and when you're full, I'll tell you something and then give you a few options." Qing Yu tried to lower his voice as much as possible so as not to scare the other party.
It's just that after seeing Xiang Lian a little scared, and looking at himself with a little bit of wanting to speak, Qing Yu seemed to know what the problem was, so he showed a very helpless expression.
Transfiguration!
"If this looks more reassuring to you"
Qing Yu directly changed into the middle-aged appearance that Xiang Lian had seen before, and then spoke.
Xiang Lian first had a touch of brilliance in his eyes, and then suddenly dimmed, "It turned out to be just a transformation technique, I should have thought of it a long time ago, how could you be my uncle." ”
Although the family's surprise was shattered, at least for now, the other party has no ill will towards her.
"Not necessarily." Qing Yu suddenly spoke, "There is a child who is about the same age as you is my little brother, if there is no accident, you two should be people of the same clan, so you really have to call me uncle." ”
Xiang Lian was stunned for a moment, "Do you know my background of the same clan?" ”
"Didn't anyone tell you?"
Xiang Lian shook her head, revealing a sad look, "Mom died of illness a few years ago, and she never told me this. ”
Qing Yu tried to think about it for a while, as if Xiang Lian really didn't know her surname until the time of Armageddon, when the pillars and doors who were reincarnated from the filthy soil saw her, and they confirmed that she was the survivor of the Uzumaki clan.
And Xianglian's mother didn't reveal this secret until she died, probably because she was worried that the surname Uzumaki would bring unwarranted disaster to Xianglian, after all, the Uzumaki clan has been wiped out, and incognito is the safest thing to do.
Qing Yu almost guessed the good intentions of Xianglian's mother.
It's just that the particularity of Xianglian's physique is destined that she will not become an ordinary ordinary person.
Thinking of this, Qing Yu couldn't help but rub Xiang Lian's somewhat messy red hair, and said with a sincere smile: "Eat first, what you want to know, I'll tell you later." ”
It was the first time someone had touched her head so gently, except for her mother
Xiang Lian suddenly blushed, and then lowered his head and ate the grilled fish in small bites.
It's so fragrant~
Xiang Li's eyes lit up immediately, and then she sped up her eating.
Maybe she felt that she was a little too rude, and she stopped in the middle and secretly glanced up at Qing Yu, and found that the other party's expression had not changed at all, or with a warm smile, she continued to eat the grilled fish in her hand with a sour nose.
As I ate, tears flowed out of my eyes
Although the future Xianglian is a 'female man' who is more fiery in terms of personality, stubborn, duplicitous, and shows his likes and dislikes to others very directly.
But before she developed that kind of character, Xiang Lian was just a sensitive, cowardly, and unconfident little girl.
At a young age, she has already faced the malice of the world towards her, especially after losing her only support, everyone regards her as a 'tool', and it is the first time that she feels a warm feeling in a 'stranger'.
Qing Yu naturally noticed this, but he pretended not to know, because sometimes crying out would make him feel better.
And comfort doesn't necessarily have an effect, especially when the two of them are not so familiar with each other, plus Xiang Yan is still very sensitive.
So he chose to turn a blind eye and let Xiang Lian vent happily.
Sure enough, after crying, Xiang Ryu felt much more comfortable, and then felt even hungrier.
The amount of food of the Uzumaki clan is not small, and in addition, Xiang Lian has been malnourished for a long time, and he is short and thin, so he can't eat a grilled fish.
Fortunately, Qing Yu has more eyesight at this time, so he silently handed over another grilled fish, and then began to eat it himself.
This practice of not putting too much pressure on her made Xiang Lian finally relax.
So the rest of the process was very quiet, and whenever Xiang Lian finished eating what he had in his hand, Qing Yu would pass over the grilled fish or meat in a timely manner, and he didn't speak.
It wasn't until Xiang Lian had finally eaten and burped that he lifted the seal and swept away all the rest of the food.
Adding some wood to the fire, Qing Yu groaned for a moment and said, "Have you ever heard of the country of vortex?" ”
Xianglin shook her head, but her eyes lit up, and she had a hunch that the mystery of her mother's untold origin would soon be revealed.
Qing Yu didn't feel strange when he saw this, but just told according to what he had learned, "In the southeast of the Fire Country, there used to be a country near the sea, called the Vortex Country. The country was founded by the Uzumaki clan, who are characterized by their red hair, amazing chakra volume, unusual physique, and great skill in sealing."
In Qing Yu's speech, Xiang Lian gradually showed a nervous expression, and her hands were clenched tightly.
It wasn't until she heard that the Vortex Country had been destroyed, that the Uzumaki clan had become history completely, and that only a handful of survivors had fled, that an extremely sad look suddenly appeared in her eyes.
It turns out that she is the child born to a survivor of the Uzumaki clan, so it's no wonder that her mother never mentions her last name.
But what about Dad?
What about her father, who she hasn't seen since she was born?
Were they killed by the enemy, or did they abandon their mother and daughter and flee?
Why did she never have a last name?
Is it because Dad is also from the Uzumaki clan?
Or is the man who abandoned them unworthy of having his child take his last name?
Xiang Lian felt a mess in his head for a while, and his eyes were also very confused.
