League of Legends God-level Summoner

In a small alley in the east neighborhood of Demacia.

Lu Chuan originally wanted to come here alone, but the two girls insisted on following him, wanting to see who the employer was who could issue such a high bounty.

Maybe it's the granddaughter of the missing person? Fifty years have passed, and the granddaughter must have become a graceful person, right?

The back-and-forth between the employer and the mercenary... Tsk, tsk, if I think about it too much, I'm afraid it's just a mosaic of images.

Therefore, the two girls expressed that they were not at ease with Lu Chuan and insisted on following him to have a look.

"This alley is too old. The style is just like the buildings from forty or fifty years ago." Ahri stretched out his hand and carefully touched the moss-covered adobe bricks on both sides. I don't know what Demacia was like forty or fifty years ago. Where did the trend of oriental architecture come from? Many alleys and alleys use oriental-style burnt adobe bricks and bluestone slabs.

There are still some oriental-style courtyard buildings in the palace. The courtyard where Lu Chuan lives now is somewhat similar to the Sihe courtyard in his world.

"Did you make a mistake? Will my employer really live here?" Even Janna asked a little doubtfully.

"The address given on the task list is correct. There is a small courtyard in front. Let's go in and have a look." Lu Chuan gently knocked on the wooden door at the entrance of the courtyard.

No one inside agreed.

However, the wooden door was not closed properly. With just a slight push, the door opened.

A smell of earth hit my face, and I looked around. There seemed to be a small vegetable patch in front of the courtyard, growing various vegetables that Lu Chuan couldn't even name.

In front of him was an earthen house made of bricks and tiles. The white ash on the wall had almost fallen off, leaving only a mottled and broken wall. Bundles of fine firewood were placed beside it, like a It is used for making fire and cooking.

"Lu Chuan! How could you just enter someone else's house?" Janna pulled Lu Chuan twice, but she didn't hold him back, and Lu Chuan walked straight in.

At this time, an old woman with a cane walked out of the house. She was short and hunched over. She looked very old, at least seventy or eighty years old, and her face was full of wrinkles.

There seemed to be a hint of excitement in a pair of eyes that were almost invisible. However, after glancing at Lu Chuan and his group, the excitement disappeared and turned into a look of loss.

"It turns out it's not...it turns out it's not..." the old woman murmured in a low voice.

"Hello, grandma, we are from the League of Legends mercenary group. We saw this task on the task list in the guild. The address filled in above is here. Is this the news you posted?"

The old woman's reaction seemed a little awkward. She was stunned for a long time before slowly nodding her head and saying, "Yes, yes."

——

"You must have heard that the person I am looking for is a person who disappeared fifty years ago. He disappeared in Shurima." In the house, the old woman sat on a small chair and spoke as if It was all a bit laborious, and I had to take a few breaths every once in a while.

It was obvious that she had aged beyond recognition.

Ordinary people don't have any natural resources, nor can they afford high-end beauty care medicines. If they age naturally, it is really rare to live to the age of seventy or eighty.

"Grandma, don't be anxious, speak slowly." Janna seemed a little distressed and handed the old woman a cup of tea.

Perhaps it was because the old woman in front of her was alone, living in such a dilapidated small house that might collapse at some point, which made her a little emotional.

If another fifty or sixty years pass and she becomes like this, will she be the same as the old woman in front of her, living a lonely life?

Thinking of this, Janna glanced at Lu Chuan secretly, and then quickly looked away.

No one can predict what the future will be like.

"He is my lover...or rather, my unmarried husband. I had already made an engagement, but I didn't expect that he was drafted into Shurima the next day. At that time, Shurima , because some strange phenomena affected the survival of the residents on the border of Demacia. So he was recruited." When the old woman said this, there was a hint of loneliness in her expression.

"Before the day of the expedition, I said that I would wait for him to come back, whether it is a month, a year, or ten years. I am his and I will definitely marry him. But now I have waited a lifetime... ...He never came back." The old woman seemed a little excited, and tears flowed from her old and turbid eyes.

She stretched out her hand to cover her face, slowly shook her head and said, "I'm sorry. She is obviously just an old and ugly old woman, but she still says these things to you young people. It is really rude."

"It's okay. We are here just to understand the situation. And let me tell you, grandma, this guy is very powerful. If you have any problems, just tell him and he will definitely solve it for you." Ah Li comforted the old woman. , while selling Lu Chuan out.

Lu Chuan was speechless for a while.

"Perhaps in the eyes of others, I am just a crazy old woman who will never die. He has already left and has not come back for 50 years, but I am constantly looking for him. When I was young, I once visited the Forbidden City in person. Rima...but I am too weak to find him and bring him back..."

The old woman's words made the two girls feel sad for a while, as if they had all seen such a scene. Decades ago, a young girl, in order to find the lover she had made a pact with, went to Shurima alone. In the wind and sand, she left footprints one after another. She searched like this for decades, but still could not find her lover.

"Decades have passed, and I have grown old and can no longer walk. My only long-cherished wish before I die now is to be able to look at him again, whether he is still alive or dead, even if he is allowed to be held by me. I will cry loudly while looking at his ashes, and I will die with no regrets." As she said that, the old woman took off a small jade pendant from her waist with trembling hands.

The jade pendant was only half, as if it had been cut in the middle.

"This is a token of love between me and him. He also has this piece on his body. If you adventurers are willing to help me find it, then take this jade pendant. Maybe it will help you discover something."

Ah Li reached out to take the broken jade pendant and took a look at the texture on it.

There is also a line of small words on the jade pendant, which seems to be a person's name, vaguely engraved with 'Milly Darcy', which must be the name of the old woman in front of me.

"And this, although I don't know if this can help you." The old woman lay down under the bed and pulled out a small box. After opening the first layer of the lock, she pulled out a yellowed Old photos.

"This is a wedding photo of me and him fifty years ago. It's also the only photo we took with him. The magic capture equipment back then was not as advanced as it is now, and the photo was also black and white." The old woman arranged the photo on the table.

Lu Chuan and his group stepped forward to take a look.

In the photo, a young and beautiful girl clings to a tall and handsome boy with a happy face, holding his arm, smiling like a flower, and her smile seems to be full of good hope for the future.

The boy looked a little dazed, showing a very honest smile, and scratching his head with his hand, as if he was a little embarrassed.

Who has never been young, who has never been beautiful.

From this photo, you can see how sweet and happy this young couple was.

Lu Chuan took his eyes away from the photo and glanced at the old woman. Her wrinkled face was filled with endless sorrow.

She is no longer young or beautiful. There is a huge difference from the smiling girl in the photo.

The neighbors thought she was a crazy old woman who insisted on waiting for the return of a man who no longer existed. She rejected all engagements, refused all overtures, and even spent her life's savings to find his bones. .

Neighbors told their children that she was an old witch who could eat people, and her ugly face was the best proof. The children were also afraid of her. Whenever they saw her going out, they would throw stones at her and run away.

She could only move to such a quiet place, waiting for the sunset every day, quietly waiting for the end of her life.

She spent more than half of every day carrying a small chair and sitting at the door of the yard, waiting for someone to push the door open and say "I'm back."

No one came back, only the sky gradually dimmed, darkness emerged, and hope disappeared.

But... maybe he will come back tomorrow, she thought.

It would be great if she could see him again, she thought.

Year after year, day after day, her beautiful blue hair has turned gray.

My hair is already like snow, and whose farewell is poignant.
