Chapter 287 Dream

The soldier guarding the city wore leather armor and an iron helmet. In order to show off his power, he drew out his iron sword and carried it on his shoulder. This iron sword had no other use except to scare the unarmed civilians. Of course, this one use was enough. Anyway, under the protection of Aetius, the barbarians had already retreated far away. War was a distant term and would not happen in a short time.

Working day after day, these soldiers were already tired, but this was the job that allowed them to eat bread, if they didn't do it they would have to starve. They were still checking the civilians coming in and out of the city gate as usual, but he saw this "mysterious man" who was wrapped tightly in a cloak.

"stop!"

The soldier who noticed something was wrong immediately stood in front of the "mysterious man". In order to increase his intimidation, he even exaggeratedly slapped his shoulder with his iron sword, making a "bang bang bang" sound. That's right, it was for the mysterious man in front of him to hear.

But the "mysterious man" seemed unmoved, which surprised the soldier. This might be the first time he had seen such a calm guy in such a long time. If it were ordinary people, they would have been scared to death and begged for mercy respectfully.

"What a strange guy." The soldier thought, still unconvinced, and continued to tap his shoulder with the iron sword, making a "bang bang" sound louder than before, indicating to the mysterious man in front of him that his patience had been challenged and he didn't want to be ignored again.

Sure enough, these two moves paid off. The "mysterious man" reached out from under his cloak, grabbed the soldier's left hand with one hand, and turned his palm upwards, and then covered the soldier's left palm with his other hand.

The soldier's eyes widened and he looked very surprised, not knowing why.

The "mysterious man" withdrew his hands, put them back into his cloak, walked around the soldier, and walked straight into the city of Ludinan.

The soldier slowly lowered his head and spread out his palm. The next second, his eyes were blurred by tears, because five Suledes were lying in his palm. He might have been fed up with the small unit of coins. Seeing Suledes was really a huge sum of money for this soldier. It could allow him to live a luxurious life for a while. For this, what would it matter if he put in a "mysterious person" who didn't know where he came from?

Luca was now on the street in the city. He slowly pulled down the cloak that covered his face, revealing his face.

"It's been three years!" Luca said to himself, "I'm finally back here again."

There was nothing to be excited about. Luca only knew that he was getting closer and closer to Levi. This time, he no longer planned to give Levi any chance to live. As long as Levi died, he would be able to rescue Anai and be with Anai forever. Luca would try his best to compensate for everything that could be repaid. Of course, rescuing Anai was the prerequisite.

"So where should I start looking?" This question puzzled Luca, even though the street remained the same as before.

Relying on his memory, Luka came to the small house where he found Ana. The dilapidated wooden door could no longer support itself, and Luka pushed it lightly, causing it to fall to the ground, with a thick cloud of dust hitting Luka's face and body.

"It looks like no one has lived here for a long time." Luga muttered to himself, not caring about the dust on his body. He took a step forward and without a moment's hesitation, stepped into this room that had been uninhabited for a long time.

The room was filled with an unpleasant stale smell, and both the bed and the table were in tatters. It was very likely that the moment Luca took Ana away, the house said goodbye to its last resident. Now it was a paradise for rats and insects.

Luga was still unwilling to give up. He endured the unpleasant smell and searched everywhere. Except for the rats, they fled in panic after Luga's arrival, but without any purpose. Maybe they had been comfortable for too long and were unaware of the existence of the threat.

Finally, I have given up! Lu Jia stood at the door. He realized that it was a complete waste of time for him to stay here. He could not see any clues here. Everything was the same as it was three years ago. However, these things had changed after waiting for him for three years.

Luga cleaned the place up again, at least to the point where he felt he could still sleep, because he wanted to stay here before looking for Anai. At least the familiar scenery here could tell him that Anai was here and not far away. As long as he slept here, Luga was confident that he could find her.

On the first day, Luca walked through the streets and alleys but found nothing. He bought a few pieces of bread and dragged his tired body back to the dilapidated hut.

The mice have returned here again, whispering in invisible corners, probably discussing the intruder that has disrupted their peaceful life.

Luca ate two pieces of bread and then broke the rest into pieces and put them in a corner so that the mice would eat the bread. Luca was just worried that the mice would not gnaw on his shoes and belt while he was sleeping.

Luca lay on the sheepskin blanket after shaking off the dust. He was too tired. The sound of mice chirping was echoing in his ears. He was too lazy to think too much and fell asleep. In his dream, he saw Ana. She was still dressed in simple clothes, but she had a beautiful face and affectionate eyes.

"My love, I wish I could stay with you forever, and never, ever be apart again!"

The familiar voice in the mouth that opened and closed made Lujia shed tears. He stretched out his hand and took a step forward, wanting to get close to her, wanting to touch her, wanting to hug her and seriously, yes, very seriously, promised her that they would never be separated again, forever, until he died! But no matter how hard he tried to get closer, he couldn't get even a step closer to Anai in front of him. Anai just stood in front of Lujia, she looked at Lujia, smiling so happily, but why, tears flowed from the corners of Anai's eyes, she cried, in front of Lujia, tears streaming down her face.

"No, no!" Luga kept shouting with trembling lips. He wanted to rush forward and wipe away the tears from the corners of Anai's eyes!

"Don't, don't cry, don't cry, Ana! Ana!" The tears were like drumbeats, touching Luka's heart, which almost suffocated him. He shouted, quickened his pace, and jogged all the way, but Ana was still in front of him, untouchable.

"Anai! Anai! Anai!" Luga shouted her name over and over again, and the jogging turned into a sprint!

At this time, Ana turned into a ray of light and enveloped Luga's eyes.

Sorry, I broke my promise!
