What should I do if the seven veterans are revived at the same time?

The little Zhuo Lan just followed Alex.

Alex seems to be a wanderer, without a fixed residence, just walking through villages and cities.Sometimes they would sleep in the open, move away the fire at night, spread dry firewood, hay and fallen leaves, and sleep by the fire.

Alex felt that this condition was nothing, he was used to it.

Zhuo Lan also felt nothing, he felt very at ease by Alex's side.

But Alex felt that a child could not wander with him like this.

He is not very good at cooking, so he usually brings some dry food and occasionally poultry or small animals, so he can easily deal with it.Moreover, for strength protection, he doesn't necessarily need to eat every meal.

But Zhuo Lan is different.

He was still young, and Alex touched his bones and found that he was thinner than his peers.Such a child should not follow him to live a life of food and shelter.

This life is still dangerous.

Zhuo Lan was just a human child, even if there were no beasts and monsters, a small problem might kill him.He is easy to hurt, easy to get sick, easy to touch everything that is hidden and dangerous.When night fell in the forest, Alex looked at the little Zhuo Lan, and even felt that he would be swallowed by darkness and fear.

This child should not be displaced in the world.

Alex made a decision.

He who always counts where he goes, started to take Zhuo Lan to a specific place.

Zhuo Lan didn't know Alex's decision, and his daily life was still the same as before.Even if a meal consisted only of brown bread soaked in hot water, he enjoyed it very much.

After eating, if there is still clean water left, he will wash his hands and face a little, and pick a leaf with a fresh fragrance to wipe the back of his hand.

This is what Alex taught him.

"I'm fine." Zhuo Lan finished everything, ran over and hugged Alex who was sitting, put his arms around his neck and kissed his cheek, "Good morning, Alex!"

Alex smiled: "You already said 'good morning'."

"But I want to say it again!" Zhuo Lan grinned, let go of him and stood up, "We can set off now, let's go!"

Alex looked at the light-hearted child and thought he looked like an elf living in a mountain spring.

His hair was also blond, but in curly curls, and the ends were up in a shaggy and lovely way.His eyes are blue, like a pristine blue sky, but also like a quiet lake.These eyes reflect the reflection of Alex, showing the complete trust of its owner in Alex.

He is cute, lively, and sometimes a little mischievous, but more often he makes Alex feel caring, and his heart softens.

It was as if the fluffiest and softest kitten came up to it, and its coquettish cry made people feel numb, who would be willing to let him suffer?

Alex had never disliked the poor and loved the rich in the past, but he took Zhuo Lan and watched him running around beside him... Alex suddenly felt that such poor conditions were absolutely unacceptable.

He couldn't keep the child with him.

Although this child brings him happiness, he doesn't find it annoying to take care of this little friend, but he can't be so selfish.

Zhuo Lan survived the tragic massacre, and he couldn't stop at "just survive".Now that he has forgotten everything, let go of the past and start over.He deserves a better life, he deserves to grow up healthily in a happy and stable family, and he should no longer fall into a situation of being displaced.

Nor should we go about our days wearing these sackcloths and eating such unpalatable food.

"Zhuo Lan."

Alex stood up and touched his head: "Do you want to live better?"

"I'm fine now." Zhuo Lan grabbed his hand and smiled at him, "I'm happy every day."

"I mean, better." Alex held his hand, "eat food that is softer, more fragrant, better for the body, wear more beautiful clothes, sleep on a softer bed. Someone to accompany you When you grow up, you will be taught to read and write. You only need to grow up in peace, joy and carefree, and other fears and dangers will be far away from you.”

Zhuo Lan thought that Alex was talking about their lives and that Alex wanted to change.

But Zhuo Lan couldn't figure out exactly what to change.He was still young, so he simply understood the literal meaning, nodded and said, "I think so."

Alex smiled: "Okay, I see."

***

They walked for more than ten days and came to a peaceful small town.

Alex bought a piece of embroidered fabric for Zhuo Lan in a fabric store in this small town, and measured him on the spot to make new clothes.

Zhuo Lan was stunned, and quickly said no.

"No, this is too expensive! It's a lot of money!" Zhuo Lan lay on the counter, staring at the money Alex gave out, "We don't buy it, return the money to us!"

He is very young and has amnesia, but he is very sensitive to money.Because he made his money back by watching Alex go on dangerous missions and challenge some scary-looking beasts.He didn't want Alex to go out all the time to take risks, but he had no ability, so he could only spend as little money as possible.

Eating less, wearing less, and not asking for anything were the only ways he could think of to save money.

Alex had discovered this a long time ago, but no matter how many times he explained, those monsters were not dangerous to him, and Zhuo Lan didn't change much.Because of this, she felt more and more that Zhuo Lan could not stay by her side.

"Okay, I've paid for it, I like it very much, let's buy it."

Alex picked up the child and took him out of the store: "It's not expensive, I still have a lot of money for the task I just completed, don't worry."

Zhuo Lan looked at the store eagerly: "But..."

"No but." Alex smiled, and simply hugged him, "Let's go, take you to a friend's house of mine."

Zhuo Lan struggled and said, "Let me down."

"No, this is fast."

"But I'm heavy..."

"How heavy are you? I hope you are so heavy that I don't want to hug you..." Alex paused, stopped talking, and said instead, "My friend cooks delicious food, you will like him of."

Zhuo Lan was vigilant: "Do you want to spend money?"

"No." Even if he wanted, Alex would not give it in front of Zhuo Lan, "Don't worry."

"Oh, okay." Zhuo Lan finally breathed a sigh of relief.

***

Alex's friend lives in a small yard, a couple in their 40s.

The host looked very tall, and when Zhuo Lan looked up at him, his neck felt sore.The hostess has a rich figure, is very gentle when she smiles, and is very approachable.

Zhuo Lan was a little afraid to approach them at first—mainly because the hostess was too tall—but soon got to know them well.The host could easily pick him up, weigh him, and then laughed and said that children should eat more meat.

The hostess pulled Zhuo Lan, washed his face, washed his hands, and took him to wash his hair.But when it came time to take a bath, Zhuo Lan didn't dare to take off her clothes, so in the end Alex came to help.

It was said to be helping, but in fact it was to pick up Zhuo Lan and put him in the bathtub, and then stood by to ensure that he would not slip and drown, and finally carried him out again.

Zhuo Lan didn't want to bother other people, especially Alex with these trivial matters, he wanted to be more self-reliant.

Alex sighed: "You are too good."

Zhuo Lan couldn't understand: "Good boy, isn't it good?"

"Sometimes, it's not necessarily good." Alex wiped his hair, "But you're fine, so don't think about it."

After taking a shower, I ate.

The owner of this restaurant is the male owner, who opens and closes. Although the dishes are simple, they are plentiful and taste good.Zhuo Lan was sitting at the table, looking left and right, wondering which one to eat first, and wondering if he could eat it.

It was Alex who scooped up many dishes for him and put them on his plate.

The children began to eat hard.

The adults wanted him to eat more, so they brought him a big bowl on purpose, which looked bigger than his face.The adults chatted while eating, and people from all over the world said that Zhuo Lan couldn't understand, so they could only concentrate on eating.

Soon, the children will be full.

Although he ate very hard, he was still young after all, and his appetite was really small, no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't eat too much.The male host originally wanted to stuff him with two pieces of meat, but Zhuo Lan really couldn't eat any more, so he covered his mouth and hid everywhere, even running behind Alex.

Alex thought it was funny, touched his belly, and persuaded his friend to leave.

***

That night, both Alex and Zhuo Lan slept at this friend's house.

Zhuo Lan wanted to sleep on a bed with Alex, but he was sleepy early, so Alex took him to bed first.Zhuo Lan slept on the soft mattress, looked at Alex who was sitting by the bed, and yawned: "Are you still asleep?"

"I'm going to chat with them, you're sleepy, go to bed first." Alex smoothed the child's hair, it felt very soft, "Zhuo Lan, do you like this place?"

"I like it." Zhuo Lan blinked, "The food is delicious, the bed is comfortable, and their people are also nice..."

While talking, Zhuo Lan's eyes were about to close.Alex said "good night" in a low voice, and Zhuo Lan also replied "good night" that he barely heard, and fell into a deep sleep.

Alex looked at his bedside for a while, seeing that he was fast asleep, then got up and left the room, closing the door behind him.

The two masters of the house were waiting for him in the living room.

"How is it?" The male host sat on the chair, and said with a stern look, "Are you asleep? Do you recognize the bed?"

"Fall asleep." Alex said, "He doesn't recognize the bed, he can fall asleep in the wild."

"Oh, I see that he devoured his food today, how much has he suffered?" the hostess sighed, "He looks so cute, he should be very favored at home, who is willing to let him suffer?"

"I don't know his past either. When I met him, his whole village was gone..."

Alex slowly told what happened when he met Zhuo Lan, and how Zhuo Lan behaved when he followed him.

After finishing speaking, the two friends were silent for a long time and sighed together.

The hostess looked at Alex and asked, "Are you sure you want to keep him with us?"
