Devil's choice

Chapter 1 [He is an idiot.]

In fact, when Duverlin was just born, no one dared to call him an i***t, and even he was once considered to be a genius of the Rowling family.

Three years ago, after Du Wei came out of the countess's belly and came to the world, he once shocked the maids in charge of the birth at that time.

Because he neither cried nor shouted, and he never even needed an adult to coax him. His life is more normal than that of an adult. He wakes up every day, eats with his mouth open, and sleeps. But every day, except for opening his mouth, the child's mouth hardly makes any sound. The only thing he does every day is to be in a daze, staring at a pair of eyes.

He even has very few records of bed-wetting. Because he learned to gently shake the bell next to the basket. After a long time, every time the bell came from Master Du Wei's cradle, the maid immediately ran to bring him a urine basin. Such a move made the whole family unanimously praise the young master for being so smart since he was a child and must be the genius of the Luolin family in the future.

Unfortunately, the word genius lost its glory after hanging on his head for less than half a year. Because he can't speak.

Children of his age can already learn language at his age, or come up with simple pronunciations in their mouths, such as "Dad, Mom, peeing" and so on. However, Master Du Wei's mouth seemed to have passed a seal spell by a super magician. Even if the countess taught him to speak, he couldn't even a single note pop up in his mouth.

Even if he is a born mute, he can hum at least twice, but the young master is silent like a stone. It's cold, hot, hungry. If it's convenient, you can only ring the bell.

When she was three years old, the young master's golden mouth had not been opened. The countess invited countless wise doctors, and even invited several well-known magicians to see if her son was under any magic curse, but to no avail. Finally, even the most optimistic countess couldn't help sighing sadly. It seemed that her son was an i***t. Fortunately, the three-year-old young master Du Wei still learned to walk. Although it is still staggering, it is no different from children of the same age.

It's just such a child who can't cry, laugh or talk, and is in a daze all day long. There is really nothing to explain except idiots.

A month ago, there was a sudden heavy rain, and the sky was thundering and lightning. The rain was like a splash. Even the Grand Canal outside the imperial capital was almost bursting, but a big thing happened in the Earl's House.

When the maid taking care of him didn't pay attention, the young master Du Wei actually climbed out of the room and stood stupidly in the yard in the rain, looking up at God. Under the thunder in the sky and the roar of thunder, the child seemed to have no fear at all - maybe an i***t who didn't know what fear was at all.

Instead, he clenched two small fists and suddenly shouted at the sky!

The young master, who had not opened his mouth for three years, stood in the rain and shouted like a crazy drop, let the rain wash on his little body. When the servants found it, he seemed to have been fished out of the water from head to toe. His whole body trembled with cold, his face was pale, and his lips were purple. .

When the countess who came heard the news, she immediately fainted when she saw this scene. The servant in the house hurriedly carried the young master and his wife into the room. The lady quickly woke up and cried bitterly with her son who had fainted. The doctor who called was tired for a long time. All kinds of medicine was fed and invited again. Two magicians used the light healing spell to keep their son for a long time.

But the child's body is still getting cold little by little. Immediately, the countess ran to the temple of the goddess of light in the imperial capital as if crazy. She invited a man in black and personally used the goddess blessing spell on the child, while the countess knelt down all night in front of the goddess statue in the temple of the goddess of light and kept praying for her son.

The next day, the child's body finally warmed up, and his life was saved. I just fell in a coma for another day and a night. When she was in a coma, the countess held her son almost sleeplessly. Two days later, the countess's delicate face was very haggard. Suddenly, Master Du Wei, who was sleeping, opened his mouth to speak. He closed his eyes, but as if he were dreaming. A few byte notes popped out of his mouth, but after listening to this sound for a long time, everyone didn't know what it meant. I think this i***t young master had not learned to speak, and he was all the meaningless words of the baby.

It's just that the countess cried with joy. She lay beside the child and listened for a long time, but finally got a clue. Looking back at a group of silent servants, he whispered, "Is there any servant named Mad who usually takes care of the young master?"

Everyone looked at each other for a long time, and finally a bold head bowed and said, "Madam, it seems that there is no one named Mad among the people in charge of the young master's life..."

Then he searched all over the count's house, but found a horse-feeding servant named Mad from the stable, and was immediately passed on to him by his wife.

"My son is calling your names in his sleep. ..... Mad... Although I don't know why he called your name, I think this is a divine sign given by the goddess of light. Goddess bless you. From today on, you don't have to feed the horse and transfer to the young master.

Mad suddenly became overjoyed. He suddenly jumped from a lowest-level masman to the young master beside him in the count's house. He seemed to see that the shining future was already beckoning to him!

However, Du Wei himself in his sleep didn't know that he was just in a moment of anger. He ran outside and yelled at God a few times. He was caught in a rain and almost lost his life. I don't know, it's just that I scolded "Damn it" when I was in a coma, so I benefited a lot from being alone.

Young Master Du Wei had been sick for a month, but the body of the child, which was originally a child, became weaker and weaker. After a month, the little face regained a little blood.

However, as always, the young master still didn't say anything. Since he woke up, he hasn't spit out half a note from his mouth. Even the servant named "Mad" who was "picked" in his sleep, the young master did not give him any good face, except in a daze every day. The only difference is that when the maid beside her occasionally talked about her serious illness, the countess once held her sleeplessly for two days and two nights, and once knelt in front of the statue of the goddess all night... After that, when the countess came to visit her son every day, she found that the child's original unsighted eyes were turning to herself. At that time, there was a trace of warmth.
