The air was thick and heavy, making people breathless, and the pungent smell almost made Lux spit out the breakfast she had just eaten.
Lux felt a burning sensation in her lungs, and with every breath she took, the fire in her lungs seemed to grow stronger.
She even doubted that this was a place where people could live.
Just now she was in the forest with fresh air, and everything there was refreshing, but now Lux was a little haggard, and the natural elements that had only been awakened for a short time seemed to reject everything here, and she felt disgusted with everything here.
"The pollution here is very serious." Su Li said calmly, "The haze blocks the sunshine here, leaving the people here in a dark environment. The highly toxic boiling water and air corrode the lives of people here."
"But in the eyes of some people, this place is a carnival of freedom and depravity. Here, the darkness of human nature can be said to be filled in every corner, and morality cannot survive here at all."
Lux felt more and more uncomfortable. She felt that everything in her body was fighting against the environment here, but she seemed so small and helpless.
Su Li noticed Lux's appearance at this moment and felt a little annoyed. He subconsciously ignored that Lux could not adapt to the environment here.
After all, except for the Zaun people who had no choice from the beginning and could only accept and try to adapt, no one here can survive in this harsh environment without any assistance.
"Breeze." Su Li said softly.
A breeze blew across Lux's face, seemingly blowing away the turbid and heavy air.
Lux felt very light. Every time she took a breath, a coolness dissipated the fire in her lungs, and she exhaled a long stream of turbid air, which seemed to clean away the impurities and dust in her lungs.
She felt very relaxed and a heavy burden was lifted from her body.
After Lux took a few greedy breaths, her originally ferocious expression became peaceful, which made the surrounding aborigines feel incredible.
Originally, they planned to watch the jokes of the two outsiders, but after all, walking outside without protection, they would soon suffer a big loss due to their ignorance.
At the same time, they also had the mentality of picking up the slack. After all, the girl's clothes were extraordinary and she was obviously the daughter of a noble. This was a lot of money on the black market.
But now, they were confused about the current situation. Could it be that the air in Zaun had improved?
Today's haze is thinner than before, but it is not something outsiders can adapt to quickly. It is impossible to walk around freely outside without any harm. The girl's condition just now was obviously eroded by the haze, and her body was violently rejected.
reaction.
But compared to the residents of Zaun, they have adapted to this kind of air, but they cannot survive in the thicker haze.
Just pray to Janna.
The wind of benevolence will blow away the haze that engulfs life.
If that girl had just prayed to Janna, the benevolent god would have definitely blown away the haze throughout Zaun. The gray cloth in the sky would have been torn apart by the strong wind, and the bright sunshine would have shone into Zuan reflecting on the tall towers of Piltover.
install.
But now the gray cloth in the sky still blocks the sunlight.
Everyone who was watching them gathered their little thoughts. After all, the stupid people in Zaun would have died long ago.
Lux felt a wind surrounding her body, protecting her.
"There is no safe place here." Su Li said.
Lux noticed the unkind glances around her, which made her hair stand on end.
"Beautiful big sister, do you need help?" A little girl hurriedly came to Lux with small steps. Her shabby clothes already had countless patches.
Coupled with that innocent face and nervous little hands, Lux's love soon overflowed.
"Kid, where is your family?" Lux squatted down without any disdain and used her hands to tidy up the little girl's dirty face.
"They all say that my father is dead." The little girl said in a sweet voice, with a look of confusion in her eyes, "Sister, what does death mean? Can I still see my father?"
Lux's heart twitched violently and she felt a cramping pain. She didn't know how to comfort the little girl.
"Where's your mom?"
"My mother is resting, she has to work at night." the little girl said innocently.
Lux quickly imagined the scene of a hard-working mother dragging a little girl into a difficult life. She felt empathy for the little girl and immediately felt sympathy for the little girl. She felt pity and wanted to compensate the little girl.
"Sister, do you need my help?" the little girl asked repeatedly.
Lux touched her pocket and found that she came out in a hurry and didn't bring a penny with her. She looked a little embarrassed and looked at Su Li with pleading eyes.
"Do you want to leave this place?" Su Li suddenly asked.
Lux's eyes lit up, and she looked at Su Li with some surprise. She was a little excited: "Do you want to adopt this little girl?"
Su Li smiled slightly and did not give a direct answer. He stared at the little girl's eyes.
The little girl was completely stunned, her mind went blank. She originally wanted to collect some wool, but she didn't know she was being taken advantage of. How could she not want such a fat sheep that was given to her for free?
The little girl suppressed her true emotions in her heart, showing a look of fear.
"Are you bad people?"
"We are not bad people." Lux hugged the little girl distressedly.
"But he's not a good person either." Su Li sighed.
The little girl's body froze, showing the fear in her heart. She suddenly burst into tears and struggled to break away from Lux's embrace.
Lux was caught off guard. As soon as he let go, the little girl was free and fled away in a panic.
Lux subconsciously chased after her, but the little girl didn't pay attention to her steps. She quickly fell down and gnawed on the mud, and was caught up by Lux.
She helped the little girl up and carefully observed the little girl's injuries. When she saw the bruises, she was so distressed that she couldn't breathe.
"You scared her." Lux scolded.
"Sister, can you please let me go home?" the little girl said with tears in her eyes. She had already grasped Lux's biggest weakness.
"Do you really want to go back to that home that fills you with fear?" Su Li came to the little girl and said, "Do you really like being abused by your biological parents?"
"Su Li, what are you talking about?!" Lux frowned, and she didn't react for a moment.
"Now you have a chance to escape from them. Although you can't live the upper-class life in Pi City, you can live a decent life. No one will abuse you or insult you. You will never have to eat leftovers from the slop bucket again.
Leftovers." Su Li stretched out his hand and said to the little girl.
"I didn't expect that someone would like this money-losing guy." A voice appeared, making the little girl tremble uncontrollably. This was fear from the bottom of her heart.
"What did you say just now? I'm dead?" A man with a sharp mouth and monkey cheeks appeared in front of them. His protruding black eye sockets and skinny face looked like a ghost.
I saw him coming to the little girl's side, raising his hands high, and touching the little girl's thin face with a strong wind.
