Reckless Through The New World

Helen Lean pushed open the door of the tavern with a pale face, and walked in staggeringly.

"What's the matter? Sissy Helen, you look softer than usual today!" Seeing him like this, Abak, the tavern bodyguard, couldn't help teasing him, "Did you just get a wife and be busy with 'business' every day? Are your legs getting soft?"

This vulgar joke immediately caused a lot of laughter, and the drinkers were all laughing and laughing.

It's only about eight in the morning, just when the day starts. The people who would come to the tavern at this time were mostly loafers and the like. They don't dare to do bad things themselves, but it is their favorite to join in the fun and make fun of others.

Although Helen has a woman's name, she also has a sissy little white face. She looks a little weak, but she is actually quite powerful. Usually, they would never dare to make fun of Helen, but today, Helen's appearance was very bad, especially after he was teased by Arbak, he didn't refute it, which made the drinkers see his weakness. If you don't take this opportunity to make fun of him, when will you wait?

Amid the laughter, Helen walked to the front of the bar listlessly and said to the bartender, "Bring me a glass of wine, spirits."

The bartender with a mustache, Alex, looked at him carefully and shook his head: "Your current situation is not suitable for drinking spirits, or even drinking. If you have to drink, I suggest you drink some beer. "

“Beer is too weak!”

"...Then some sparkling fruit wines, at most, are like this. Stronger wines are absolutely not good. We are here to make people happy, not to make people sick."

Helen sighed: "Then foam the bar, hurry up."

It only took him a while to finish a big glass of wine, and then he wanted to buy more, but the bartender didn't agree.

As an old Jianghu, Alex's vision is very accurate. He could see that Helen's current physical condition was a bit bad, and it was definitely not suitable for drinking a lot. If Helen drinks something wrong in the tavern, it will be a big problem!

Helen became angry and made a scene. Of course, the bodyguard Abak tried to stop it, and the two started to fight in the tavern. As a result, Helen, who was usually able to fight with Arbak, performed poorly today, and was knocked to the ground by Arbak in just three or two blows and threw it out.

"Little white face, your condition is very abnormal today, so you should go home and rest. When you are healed, remember to pay for the broken table today!"

Helen lay on the ground for a while before slowly getting up. He looked around, and the townspeople looked at him mockingly.

In normal times, he is afraid that he will make a big noise again. However, he didn't know whether it was because of his illness or because he was beaten just now. Today, he seemed weak, and he didn't even have the spirit to quarrel.

After standing there and resting for a while, he walked towards the market on the street again.

In a town, the market is often the most lively place. This town called "Mutter Town" is not big, but the liveliness of the market is no different from other towns.

Helen came to the market and found a place where she could enjoy the sun.

The weather in early September was still quite hot. No one would like to bask in the sun in this kind of weather, but Helen just sat under the sun.

He didn't buy or sell anything, he just sat there and stared blankly at the bustling market. From morning to noon, and from noon to evening.

He didn't eat, he didn't drink water, he didn't speak, he just sat there blankly. If it wasn't for a well-meaning acquaintance who couldn't see it, dragged him to have lunch in the shade, and remembered to send him water twice, I'm afraid he could sit here and bask in the sun until he collapsed from heatstroke, and even exposed himself to the sun die.

Fortunately, the sun is finally in the west, and the day is finally coming to an end.

When the market closed, everyone except the doorman had to leave, and Helen was no exception.

So under the urging of the guard, he stood up slowly, left slowly, and walked slowly on the road.

The town of Mutter is not big, and it is said that you can get home soon. But he turned around on the road, as if he had lost his way, and never went in the direction of his own house.

It was not until the sun went down completely and the moon rose that the people in his family were in a hurry and came out to look for him. They found him near the gate of the town and took him home.

Helen followed her family back blankly, washing her face and hands, eating, bathing, and sleeping.

He just got married not long ago, and his wife is not a big beauty, but she is gentle and considerate, and treats him very well. Because he didn't seem to be in good spirits today, his wife was still worried and asked what happened. And his parents invited the only doctor in town to diagnose him.

"He's not sick." The doctor, who had more than half of his hair white, examined Helen carefully before saying, "He's just... a little tired."

"Tired?" The Li'an couple looked at each other in confusion. "He hasn't done anything tired these days. He just took a day off today. How could he be tired?"

"I don't know, but his symptom is exhaustion," the doctor said. "It's strange that in general, a tired person must have stiff muscles—the ones that exert strength no matter what he does. Muscles are always a little stiff. But I just checked his arms, legs and lower back, and I couldn't find any stiff muscles, which really puzzled me."

"Then...is there any suitable medicine?"

"There is no cure for exhaustion in the world, he just needs to rest." The doctor said, "Have a good rest and don't let anyone disturb him."

So Helen took a good rest.

The family was busy, but no one bothered him. They even deliberately did not speak, and tried to move as lightly as possible, just so that he could rest better.

But Helen was not resting well.

He was lying on the bed alone, eyes open, motionless.

After a while, his wife went back to the room and lay beside him.

Seeing him like this, she was a little worried and persuaded her for a long time. But he still refused to close his eyes, and in the end his wife had no choice but to sleep first.

The night is getting darker, and it is time for everything to sleep peacefully.

Helen insisted on keeping his eyes open, but he couldn't keep his eyes open all the time, he was going to sleep after all.

So he still closed his eyes.

Then he had a dream.

In the dream, around noon, the family was eating, the sun was shining outside, and the house was happy.

On the opposite side of Helen's seat, however, hung a mirror.

What was reflected in the mirror was an empty and broken house, and there was no other person besides Helen sitting there.

He wanted to stand up, but it felt like a heavy weight was pressing on his chest. He couldn't get up, and even breathing became more and more difficult. The whole person seemed to be pressed like this until he died.

But in this case, he can still be distracted to look in the mirror.

The mirror moved slowly, slowly reflecting the scene from all over the house. I saw ruins everywhere, but I couldn't see the slightest bit of anger. Even the blind can see that there has been no one living here for at least ten or eight years.

Finally, the mirror faces outside, reflecting the dark night.

Helen screamed and sat up.

The sky is already bright, and the sun is shining outside. However, his face was pale and he didn't even wear shoes. He hurried out of the room and came to the hall of his house.

In the hall, there is a beautiful mirror, which is one of the most valuable things in Li'an's family. It is said that it was left by an ancestor who was a soldier a long time ago.

As for why bravely killing the enemy can kill a mirror, that is a trivial matter that is not worth investigating.

Helen completely ignored the family's inquiries and worries, rushed straight to the mirror, widened her eyes, and looked at the mirror.

The mirror reflects the ordinary scene of ordinary people.

He still didn't give up, and turned the mirror to look outside the house. The mirror reflected the sunny street.

Helen let go of her hand in a daze, letting the mirror hang there again, sitting slumped on the ground without saying a word.

After a while, he went back to his room, put on his shoes, and went out the door again, walking up and down the street as if he had lost his mind.

His wife followed worriedly, afraid that something might happen to him.

When no one noticed, there was a slight flash of light on the mirror that was facing the door. At that moment, the scene of ruins and darkness disappeared in a flash.

On September 5, 783, the mainland calendar, Panda and others came to this world to track down the whereabouts of the travelers who lived here.
