Wind of Steel

Chapter 55, The Ruins of the East

In silence, Yi Erlansi looked at the sky, after recalling the stupid things she did at that time, she really felt that she should not live in this world.But, didn't that little girl say that?Living is sometimes a punishment.

Edward and Armstrong looked at the silent Irlan Si, and they didn't speak anymore because they didn't know what to say.Moreover, at this moment, no matter what you say, there seems to be no way to heal the wound in Erlan Si's heart.The two looked at each other, nodded to Erlan Si, and walked out.

Father……

Iran Si grabbed Bellman's hand.

you must wake up...

The green grass, the blue sky, with white clouds floating above, and the passionate flowers all around exude a fragrance. A cute little girl and a cheerful little boy are playing with a very beautiful and gentle woman.

That scene was so sweet.

Bellman woke up from the beautiful memory, opened his eyes, and found his daughter lying beside him, as if she had fallen asleep.He stretched out his hand and gently stroked Erlan Si's hair.

The gentle gentle touch woke up Erlan Si. "Dad, don't move, you..." She hurried up and grabbed Behrman's hand. "Don't worry, I'm not that fragile as a martial artist." Behrman smiled, and then sat up. "I'm just a little weak because of excessive blood loss. Haven't all the wounds healed?"

"You..." Erlan Si was very surprised, how did father know?He should have been in a coma the whole time.

"Your mother told me everything." Bellman said softly. "I'm sorry, Dad..." Seeing that her father didn't blame her at all, Yi Erlansi's heart ached, and the corners of her eyes became moist. "I……"

"Don't cry, am I okay?" Bellman hugged Erlan Si into his arms, "You let me meet Frans again, I am very happy..."

"Father..." Erlan Si could no longer control her emotions, sobbing in Bellman's arms.

It took quite a while before Erlan Si's mood stabilized. "You have been wronged all these years." Behrman said to Ilan Si with guilt. "No, I'm fine." Irlan Si got up from Bellman's arms, her father had just woken up and was still very weak, "A bearded uncle named Van Hoenheim adopted me and taught me alchemy ..."

"Really?" Behrman smiled, "If I see him, I must thank him well."

"Excuse me." At this time, Armstrong's voice came from outside, and then the curtain was lifted, and the big man bent over and walked in, "Mr. Hoynt, great, you are finally awake .” He was very happy to see Behrman woke up.

"Thank you, Mr. Armstrong. If it weren't for you, Yilan and I would have died." Bellman understood everything clearly through his wife's soul.

"No, it's nothing." Armstrong waved his hand, saying nothing. "By the way, I'm sorry, but we have to go to the ruins in the east." He turned his attention to Irlan Si.

Erlan Si lowered her head. She didn't know what to do. Although she told her to go there, she didn't say when she would go there, and she had just met her father who had been separated for ten years, let alone him now. body has not yet recovered.

"Go." Bellman could see his daughter's hesitation, but he could also see that these people must have something very important to go to the Eastern ruins.

"But..." Erlan Si wanted to argue. "It's okay, I'm not that fragile," Behrman said with a smile, "I've fought for a day and a night with a seriously injured body." He pointed to Sledge who had just opened the curtain and walked in , "And isn't there Sledge here?"

"That's right! As long as Master Behrman has me alone, that's enough." Sledge said to Erlansi with his head held high. Fortunately, the tent was high enough, otherwise this guy would definitely hit the tent.

"Go." Bellman said softly to Irlan Si.

"...I will be back soon." Irlan Si finally nodded, "You must wait for me here." "Don't worry." Behrman replied, "I finally met my daughter , how could we part so quickly?"

The corners of Yi Erlansi's eyes were moist, and finally she made up her mind and walked out of the tent.

After having breakfast and getting everything ready, the four of them mounted their horses again and headed east.The sun is still vicious, but Yi Erlansi's heart feels very warm.Because she found her father, she is no longer alone, she has a father who loves her.

"Whooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo... It's so hot!" Edward complained again. "When will we get there?" he asked impatiently.

"Soon, we have entered the eastern country." Mr. Han said, "Look." He pointed to the front and said.Edward looked forward with a monocular, and he really saw the traces of the ruins.

"That is the center of the former Keseluxais ruins." Mr. Han said, "It used to be a very prosperous country, but now it is just a transit point for caravans traveling between the East and the West."

"Any prosperity is fleeting, and nothing lasts forever." Erlan Si interjected, "So immortality is just a joke." The guard said something like "throw away the clue of immortality that I finally found", so he said it casually.

"Finally you're here." When people start chatting with great interest, time passes quickly.Just when these four people, oh no, it should be three people, Edward was already too hot to speak.Just when the three of them were chatting happily, an old voice came over. "I've been waiting for you for a long time."

"Mr. Hu, hello." Mr. Han and the white-bearded old man wrapped in a turban in front of him seemed to be old acquaintances.The white-bearded old man called Mr. Hu nodded, then looked at Irlan Si and Edward, "Why is this kid here? And who is she?" He pointed at Irlan Si.

"I guess why! Why are you here, old man? Why am I being brought to this border area? I have so many questions I want to ask you! But give me water first!" Edward was about to suffer from heat stroke on the way .

"Oh, I don't know why, but I'm sorry." Facing this fiery boy, Mr. Hu could only apologize first, and then handed the water bottle to Edward.

"This is Miss Ireland Hoynt, a friend of Edward's," Breda said.

"Hello." Yi Erlansi said very politely, and she was still very polite to the old man. "Hey, Edward, are you okay?" Armstrong said worriedly while holding Edward in his arms.Although Edward said he drank water, the residual heat in the metal was not so easy to dissipate.

"It's...so hot..." Edward said in a hoarse voice that was about to die.

Irlan Si silently snatched Irlan Si from Armstrong's hand, and then threw him directly into the water hole for the animals to drink.thump! "There is no problem with this look." Erlan Si clapped her hands and said.Everyone looked at Erlan Si with fearful eyes.Although Yi Erlansi covered the ouroboros on her forehead with a turban, many of the alchemy formations on her body were still exposed, making it easy to think of a bad girl. "What's wrong?" Apparently, Erlan Si didn't realize this.

"Well, I've only heard of Kesseluxeth in the story of 'The Sage of the East'." Armstrong first broke the strange silence, looked around, and said. "The sage of the East?" Mr. Hu seems to have never heard of it. No wonder, he is from the country of Xin.

"Well, it's about bringing alchemy to our country." Edward was resurrected. "It is said that a survivor of the Kingdom of Xeroxes who disappeared overnight came to Amistoris, which was not long after the founding of the country, and spread alchemy. This is the story." Several people began to follow Mr. Hu walked to the depths of the ruins.

"Really?" Mr. Hu was a little surprised. "It seems that there are such legends everywhere. Our country also has a story about the 'sage of the west'. In our country of Xin, there is a legend about a sage who came from the west and taught us alchemy. , so our alchemy technology has been significantly improved."

"Alchemy in your country is mostly used for medical purposes, right?" Edward confirmed to Mr. Hu.

"Well, that's right." Mr. Hu nodded, "However, those in ancient times can't be regarded as alchemy at all, but the product of some people's delusion to live forever. There are even royal families who believe that mercury can live forever. He died of mercury poisoning." He continued, "Until the great man from the West introduced alchemy, and then we Xin Guo fused alchemy with our ancient technology, and it became alchemy. Therefore, we honor him as the 'Sage of the West'!"

"Where are we going?" Yi Erlansi didn't have the time to listen to this, she had to go back quickly to take care of her father.

"It will be there in a while." Mr. Hu said.

"Wow, what a magnificent temple." Armstrong admired the ruins here. "This country has such advanced alchemy, will it really be destroyed overnight?" "It's really just a legend." Bleda also admired the magnificence of this ruin, but he didn't believe those legends.

"Progressive knowledge does not mean that it will not perish," Irlansi obviously disagreed with Armstrong's words, "it is common sense that prosperity will lead to decline."

This time Edward ignored these people, because he saw something that fascinated him.A very huge stone wall with a very grand pattern on it that seems to be formed into an array. "It's so similar!" Yi Erlansi also saw this thing, but her complexion was not very good, because this thing was so similar to the formation of the Philosopher's Stone. Of course, she would feel scared if she had experienced it. The feeling of surviving after escaping from the misfortune of being refined into the Philosopher's Stone is beyond the imagination of others.
