Chapter 537 Red Flower One
The blood red of the setting sun matches this color, and the color of the country Zekelia is also as bright red as blood.

In the dimly lit streets, except for the remaining empty stalls, there were no people lingering on the streets.

It's just that under such circumstances, there is a little girl walking on the street.

This is a little girl with a thin body, her face is neither delicate nor delicate, but she is innocent and cute like a little girl.But the cheekbones protruding due to malnutrition make this cuteness disappear a bit, looking like a thin monkey that has not eaten enough.Her steps seemed to be staggering, each step was ups and downs like a wooden horse, and it took a long time to take each step.She didn't want to do this either, but if she didn't, her body that had persisted to the limit would fall down at any time.

This is not like the perseverance possessed by a little girl, but more like a resolute veteran who has spent most of his life in the battlefield and still has a certain goal.

What the little girl did was nothing else, she just shuffled to the doors on the left and right sides of the street, knocked on the door with her tiny hands and made the same tiny sound.

Boom.. Boom.. Boom.. with a rhythmic sound.

The door was opened with a small crack, and a pair of old eyes were revealed from the crack. He peeked outside the door, and after confirming that the only one who knocked on the door was the little girl, he moved the locked door.

The old man sighed, this was not the first time he had seen this little girl.

The little girl looked up at the old man, her chapped lips made a cowardly voice, "Zekelia flower, how can it turn red?"

Zekelia is the national flower of Zekelia.It is a flower that grows in the snow. Its flowers are medicinal and highly ornamental. Under the self-protection of the plant growth, its petals are as white as the snow, and there is no such thing as red at all. concept.What's more, the most special thing about it is that it grows in the cold, absorbs snow water and grows up. The moment it blooms is the moment it dies, and its petals are also melted in the snow water. Soaked in white, it becomes even clearer. In this country, Zekelia flowers are also "transient".

Even if there are a few mutated red flowers, under such growing conditions, they will be soaked into white and transparent petals.

"I don't know, maybe someone else will."

The old man shook his head and said such an answer, he did not destroy the little girl's fantasy.

"Thank you..." The little girl responded politely, turned around and wanted to leave.

"Wait..." the old man stopped her, he turned around and walked back into the house, only a few tens of seconds later he turned back, and he handed the thing tightly wrapped in cloth strips to the girl's arms , Then stuffed the pot of water and said: "These are for you."

"Thank you" The girl is ready to express her gratitude repeatedly.

"Don't thank me! Don't come here again!" the old man emphasized.

The little girl took the things apprehensively, and her cowardly character made her immediately walk out. After opening the distance, she turned around and wanted to express her gratitude.

"Don't look at me anymore! Go!" shouted the old man.

The little girl had no choice but to put away her words of thanks and continued to pace forward.

The old man sighed, and his eyes locked on the little girl.There is also his reason for his harsh tone. He couldn't help her too much, and when he looked into her eyes, his heart couldn't help trembling.

"Zekelia flower, how can it turn red?" The little girl walked to the side room and asked the same question, but the people in this house were not going to answer him.The doors were locked and even the windows were covered.

The little girl was not discouraged, she started to walk to other places.

Just at this moment, a questioning voice came from behind the little girl.

"Zekella flower, what kind of flower is it?"

Upon hearing this question, the little girl turned around.

The little girl saw the person who asked her that question, and she didn't know how to describe what she saw.She has read few books and lacks adjectives, so she cannot describe her.But she knew that this was the most beautiful person she had ever seen, much more beautiful than her mother, even though he was a big brother.When she asked her parents about the difference between boys and girls, she clearly felt the nervousness and embarrassment of her parents. They didn't seem to know how to answer this question to her, but then her father and mother seemed to think of something, and smiled at her. Looking at her, she said, "Use the Adam's apple to judge."

She clearly saw the little brother's Adam's apple rolling, because he was eating, and his Adam's apple contracted back and forth when swallowing food, so the little girl could find it carefully.

"Do you want to eat this?" Fang Xing asked, he noticed that the little girl was staring at him.Considering the little girl's appearance, he thought she was following his food.After all, this is a gourmet bento provided by Zhepu. Although the taste is a little bit worse than that made by Sanji, it still exudes a full fragrance.

The girl was confused by this sudden question. She glanced at the dry food she had just obtained in her hand, and then at the delicious food that Fang Xingping pushed in front of her, her throat rolled down unconsciously, and the gluttonous The saliva was swallowed.

"I don't want it. My parents taught me not to take things from strangers." She shook her head and refused.

"But didn't you get your dry food from other people too?" Fang Xing asked strangely. He clearly saw the little girl knocking on an old man's door and got them.

"He is not a stranger. I know who he is. I will repay him in the future." The little girl said affirmatively, and then looked at Fang Xing, "But I don't know who you are, so I can't ask for your things. "

Fang Xing simply pushed the delicious food in front of her forcefully, and said, "My name is Fang Xing, so I know you."

"No..." the girl replied with difficulty. She still insisted on her point of view, even though she insisted on paying a "price"——she licked her lips, turned away her eyes, and held her breath as much as possible to let herself Don't smell that tempting tangy smell.

This difficult look made Fang Xing laugh, "How about taking it as a reward for my question just now? You can get this as long as you answer my question just now."

"..no."

The little girl still gave the same answer. She was already moved just now, and was even going to rely on the answer as Fang Xing said in exchange for this reward.Just when she was about to speak, she changed her mind.

She explained to Fang Xing: "Even if you don't give me this reward, I'm going to explain it to you, so it's not a reward at all."

Fang Xing's face sank, "Why are you more stubborn than me, little guy?"

He finally felt what others felt in him in the past.

Mizel stayed behind silently, not daring to say a word.It's just that watching this scene is also a little horrified.There were two things that shocked him, one was Fang Xing's terrifying strength, and the other was Fang Xing's incomprehensible behavior now.It was the first time he had seen Fang Xing contribute his food. Usually, before he was full, Mizel couldn’t eat anything at all. Fang Xing’s desire to monopolize food is so terrible, but now not only It was a question of whether to give it or not, but Fang Xing forced it to her when the other party refused.

Is the world moving too fast, or is he still awake?
Fang Xing sighed, and simply put the bento box on the ground, "Now I have lost my things, do you want it?"

"Did you really throw it away?" the little girl asked again.

"Throw it away." Fang Xing said with certainty.

"The food I make is not for throwing." Zhepu suddenly stepped forward and said.

His cheeks were fierce, and his legs were wearing prosthetic limbs, which brought invisible pressure to him, and the little girl also looked at him with fearful eyes.

Zapp ignored the gaze, which he had grown used to from his time as a pirate.Looking at the little girl, he always felt that her stubborn personality was a bit like that idiot Sanji.He handed her another bento box that he could not untie in the future, and he picked up the one that Fang Xing threw away.

"It's yours. What you have to do is clean up the dishes for me after eating." Zapp said, emphasizing, "This is work."

Under such words, the little girl nodded immediately.

"Also, don't eat too fast. You can only eat half, and finish the rest after half of the work is done. I will help you heat up the food." Zhepu reminded that the little girl's thin body , It is not suitable to eat so much meat in an instant.

The little girl nodded her head quickly like pounding garlic, and she showed a lot of spirit.After receiving the bento, he couldn't wait to untie it, and stuffed something into his mouth.

Fang Xing looked at her with gusto, and his own appetite was also whetted. He reached out and took the rest of Zhepu's hand, the bento box he "discarded" just now, and continued to eat.

The little girl kept the agreement, and after eating half of it, she didn't eat one or two more bites because she was hungry, but reluctantly covered the lunch box.

Fang Xing, who had already finished solving the problem, looked at her and asked, "What do you mean by that sentence just now? Zekelia flower, what kind of flower is it?"

"The Zekelia flower is the national flower of this country, and it is only white." An old man suddenly jumped out and replied.He stared at Fang Xing and the others for a long time. After noticing that they were approaching the little girl, he didn't act rashly. He didn't stand up until they provided the little girl with food.This shows that he is not a member of King Zekelia, otherwise, how could those greedy guys, who were ready to pry even a ration of food away from them, provide it to them?
"Only white flowers?" Fang Xing asked.

The old man introduced this kind of flower to Fang Xing in a low voice, and Fang Xing also had a general understanding, but he didn't understand what the little girl was looking for flowers for? Especially every time, when he asked this question, the little girl's eyes turned Shrink slightly.

"..Can you tell me why you want to make the white flowers turn red?" Fang Xing asked, this is the third time he asked this question.

The old man glanced at Fang Xing, then at the little girl, and gave her encouraging looks.

The little girl also looked up at Fang Xing, and then showed a determined face, "... Mom and Dad said when they left that they would return when the white flowers of Zekelia turned into red flowers. They never Never lied to me, I..believe them."

When she said this, she also looked at the old man, refuting the old man's words of "only white".

The old man sighed. When he saw the little girl provoke Shang Xing, he stared at the side, full of worry.

Although the little girl was only asking about how the Zekelia flower turned red, it would not hinder anything, but now when King Zekelia compares himself to a king and uses this white color as a promotional topic, the little girl asked Such a problem.For a king who only values ​​himself, he will undoubtedly be regarded as an insult. Red is not an auspicious color in this world. Blood and death can be replaced by red.

It was precisely because of this worry that the old man would puncture the little girl's fantasy after confirming that Fang Xing and the others had no problem.If the little girl's fantasy is not punctured now, it will be too late when she meets the real person sent by the king's army.

"Ivy's parents used to be the management officials of the street. He has favored me. It's just that in this country, good people are destined not to live too long. They were sold by the king. The crazy king, ordinary people directly Be demoted to slavery and betrayed..." the old man said to Fang Xingshu, his tone full of embarrassment.The reason why this street is so quiet is because everyone is afraid of being captured by the king's army as slaves.

"Sold?" Fang Xing said, his words were both angry and curious.

The angry thing is that there are such things everywhere above this sea.But what is curious is that the Tezolo information provided by the navy is here, and based on his understanding of Tezolo, although he is the top entertainer and builds the world's largest entertainment city, Gulan. It's an extremely showy thing.But in other aspects, he tried his best to hide the power he possessed. This is a wolf with a purpose, especially because he will not deliberately expose himself to dangerous situations because of "money" .

"What are you buying for? And who is the businessman you trade with?" Fang Xing asked one after another.

All the old people shook their heads. He is just an ordinary person, and he doesn't know much about these things.

"Seeing that you don't know much about these things, you shouldn't be from this country. I advise you to leave as soon as possible. Take Ivy with you by the way."

"Thank you." Ivy first thanked the old man, but not for his proposal.

"I'll clean up the dishes for you." Ivy said to Zapp again.

But after saying this, she continued to walk towards the other doors.After she was full, her steps did not falter as before, and she could walk steadily.

The old man didn't persuade him anymore. Ivy's parents are good people, and Ivy is also a good girl, but he is destined not to be a good person.When Ivey had been clearly informed of the situation, she still chose to immerse herself in the illusion. Under such circumstances, the old man was unwilling to catch up with herself again.He walked quickly back to his room, then locked the door tightly, without even saying hello to Fang Xing and the others.

"Zekella flower, how can it turn red?"

This cowardly voice sounded again in the drowsy street.
