Through the moonlight, in addition to the little boy who called out to his mother, there was a little girl snuggled next to him.

Their mother glanced at the child, then cried at Mu Ling, her knees slipping and falling to her knees with a thud.

"Please, save the child, the child is innocent. ”

People from the south rarely come to the north, let alone at night, where there is a rancid stench and some indescribable stench as Mu Ling gazes at the woman, "That... I didn't have anything to eat... But you have some silver taels on you, and you can use them to buy food. ”

Mu Ling took out a few taels of silver from his sleeve, and it glowed silver in the moonlight.

The woman was shocked and took the silver, but who knows, several people around rushed up and snatched the silver from the woman's hand.

One cry was followed by another, the woman fell to the ground, and the child next to her cried.

Mu Ling wanted to help the woman up, but who knew that the eyes of several people fell on her.

"It's been a long time since I've seen such a flowery woman. ”

"What do you want to do!"

Mu Ling stepped back step by step.

The woman climbed up and shouted, "You are still not human! Although we are poor, we cannot lose our human nature! ”

A man pushed her to the ground and roared so loudly that the whole alley could hear it, "It's not because of them the southern sluts! How could we be here without them! If we kid her up, we'll get a lot of value in exchange!"

As he spoke, the closer the man got closer, Mu Ling was a little at a loss.

I don't know if the spell will succeed...

"Lose your conscience!" the woman got up at one point, grabbed the trouser legs of the two men, "Run!"

Mu Ling ran in the direction she had come, looking behind her from time to time, and the next moment, the woman fell in a pool of blood.

The child's cries grew louder and louder, and Mu Ling stopped her steps and looked at the woman lying in a pool of blood from a distance, listening to the piercing cry.

Immediately after that, the strong men came to Mu Ling, "Little girl, can you still escape?"

Mu Ling lowered her head in frustration, and felt a little regretful why she had to run away. If she hadn't fled, the woman wouldn't have had that fate.

"Do you know you killed someone?"

The others listened very funny and asked rhetorically, "Wouldn't it be nice to give her a pleasure when she kills?

Mu Ling, I didn't expect these people to be so indifferent, and smiled Wan'er.

"You guys are so pathetic!"

"How dare this woman provoke us!"

"When the time comes, let her suffer a little, and know whether she should bow her head and admit her mistake to us! ”

Seeing that Mu Ling was so good-looking, the other person licked his lips with compassion and compassion, "Or us?" The man looked Mu Ling's figure up and down.

Several people looked at each other, as if everyone understood.

"Yes, yes, when the time comes, send her to the south for a sum of money, and a few of us will be free! We don't have to stay in this dead end again! Spend the rest of our lives!"

A few dark shadows gradually approached, and Mu Ling kept retreating until it reached the wall.

"You guys!"

Mu Ling's hand glowed with a meager green light at this time.

The moment the group approached, Mu Ling's eyes were tightly closed, and suddenly one of them raised one hand was held by the other. Then he shook it off.

Mu Ling opened her eyes at this time, and it was the girl she was chasing before.

"Who are you? How dare you interfere with our good deeds? ”

"You'd better let that person go, she's not from the Dust Country. ”

"Yo, it's a woman again! It's a couple today! It's so lucky. How could the man know the origin of the girl under the veil?

"I guess that's what you did to my children!"

A few homeless men didn't pay any attention to what the woman under the hat was saying, and the next second they lifted the hat of the mysterious woman, and then they were startled.

Under the moonlight, the silver hair was scattered, and they shouted in horror: "It's the White Republic of China!"

Immediately after that, several homeless people fled.

Mu Ling also saw the people of the White Republic for the first time, with white hair scattered and a mysterious aura in his eyes.

Thinking that this woman from the White Republic of China was very good-looking, I couldn't help but feel a little more nostalgic.

The woman from the White Republic of China looked Mu Ling up and down, and whispered, "How is it a human being?"

When Mu Ling was puzzled, suddenly a black shadow appeared in the air again, and the woman from the White Republic turned around and left quickly, disappearing around the corner.

It was Bai Ye who fell to the ground, Bai Ye looked at the people who were far away and didn't intend to chase them, but asked Mu Ling with concern: "Are you okay?"

Mu Ling shook her head, just because of her, she hurt a person, an ordinary person.

"Little mute, why are you here now..."

Mu Ling gently leaned on the little mute's body, and tears slowly flowed out of the corners of her eyes. This time because she died again.

After gradually leaving Bai Ye, Mu Ling pointed in the direction ahead and said slowly, "There are two children over there, can you save them." ”

As long as it is Mu Ling's request, he will definitely agree.

So Mu Ling took Bai Ye to that place, and the woman in the pool of blood lay peacefully on the ground, and the child next to her sobbed quietly.

Mu Ling bent down and gently hugged the two children, "Don't be afraid, there is a sister." ”

There was a strange silence around, and the others, as usual, seemed to have come to terms with death.

At this time, Bai Ye opened his mouth and asked, "Why did you come here?"

Mu Ling looked at Bai Ye suspiciously, "I saw a mysterious woman, and then I thought about following along... Then I didn't expect to get to this place..."

"By the way, she's the one we're looking for!"

Bai Ye acquiesced in his heart.

"Let's take these two children back to the inn first. Bai Ye looked at the two children indifferently, "Can you still walk on your own?"

The two children were very afraid of Bai Ye, so Mu Ling asked softly, "Can you go?"

The two children nodded. At this time, if they can't get out of here, they will die in the next few days. My mother once told them that if they could get out of this place, they would get ahead. This is also their mother's greatest hope. The two children had long been in mind, so they nodded silently.

"Okay, then come back with us!"

After returning to the inn, Mu Ling saw the appearance of the two children, who were skinny, ragged, and had unkempt hair. There was also a sour smell on his body.

"Little Er!"

Xiao Er heard the voice and hurried over: "This son, do you have any orders?"

"Take the two children to take a bath, change them into clean clothes, and then prepare to eat!" Bai Ye took out the silver and handed it to Xiao Er.

"Okay, master~"

After Xiao Er left with her two children, Mu Ling was still a little unrelieved.

"It's all my fault, their mother sacrificed herself to save me, I never thought that group of people would be like this. ”

"This king still has to thank that person, if it weren't for her, I'm afraid this king would never see you again!"

"Little mute..."

"These two children can't be brought into the palace, after all, they are from the Muchen Kingdom, but this king can find a home for them in this Muchen Kingdom. ”

"Okay then... Little mute, I have a doubt that I don't know whether to talk about it or not?"

Say. ”

"I saw what the person from the White Republic looked like just now, and what made people wonder was that she had already dumped me, why did she come back to save me. ”

"Maybe I'm too stupid to see you, I'm afraid that you will get into trouble in the underworld. ”

"You're stupid. Mu Ling pouted.

"I was joking with you, and when I saw your sad face, I wanted to make you laugh, but I didn't expect to be called a fool by you. ”

At this time, Xiao Er had already served the food, but he said a little more, so that Mu Ling noticed.

"Two guest officers, did those two children come from the north?"

Mu Ling didn't know anything about the north at all, she only knew that there were a lot of people there, a lot of homeless people who had lost their hands, and homeless people who had lost their loved ones.

Seeing that the two were silent, they thought it was a tacit acquiescence.

However, Xiao Er still kindly reminded: "The two guest officers can't just walk around in the north, there are famine people everywhere, maybe they will be robbed after they pass, and they can't even get out of the northern boundary." ”

Mu Ling looked at this little two suspiciously, "What is going on here?"

Xiao Er was silent, after all, he used to be the one who came out there, and now he is a little sad when he mentions those old things.

"Guest, you just have to remember not to go there. Xiao Er left after serving. Leave her alone to think.

"Little mute, what the hell is going on?"

"There is a world of difference between this Rambu and the north, and it is only natural that there are displaced people there. ”

"What's the matter? In the midst of a huge country, are they starving to death there? There are many old people and children there? Mu Ling didn't believe what the little mute said, according to what he said, didn't he already know that the country was divided into two extremes.

"This is their country, and there is nothing I can do about it, after all, I can't interfere with the policies of their country as a person from another country. Don't you want all these displaced people to come to my country? If you had that, I wouldn't have agreed. ”

Mu Ling wanted to stop talking, and she also wanted to help those people.

"I can save one or two, but I can't save the whole country. I'm not here to get to know the victims. It's about finding the truth. Bai Ye said very firmly.

Mu Ling also knew that the little mute couldn't do anything, so she put down her body, picked up the chopsticks and gently picked up the dish and handed it to her mouth.

"Why are there so many refugees?" asked Mu Ling, knowing the consequences and the causes.

"It's closer to the north, the country is surrounded by desert, the northern part is full of wind and sand, and the high walls won't help, and in the long run, even the crops will be lost. Coupled with the low rainfall, there are no refugees here. ”

Mu Ling listened to the little mute say this. Even more confused, how did these delicacies on her table come from?

Bai Ye knew what Mu Ling wanted to ask, so he continued: "These only appear in the north, and the south is not affected. ”

"No wonder, no wonder those people..."

Bai Ye looked at Mu Ling suspiciously.

"It's okay..."Mu Ling thought to herself, no wonder those people said that they wanted to bring her to the south in exchange for some money. And said that as long as this way, they could escape from that place.

"Why can't the people of the south accept them?"

Bai Ye looked around, and said in a low voice: "Because the south also has his master! Although Muchen Country is a small country, it also has a king. And that king is the one who stands at the top of the land of shepherds. ”

"Then he's... Can't you negotiate?"

Bai Ye chuckled, human nature is here, how can a person who is insatiable and enjoys all day long be related to the life and death of others.

"What's wrong?"

"It's nothing, you can eat something! I'm afraid that when those two children come, you won't be able to eat a bite." ”

"How could it be!" Mu Ling obviously didn't believe what Bai Ye said, it was just two children, and this table was full of people.

The next moment, Mu Ling was slapped directly by herself, staring at the two children in a daze, they had just changed their faces, and their whole faces were much cleaner.

The two children devoured food, and tears flowed out of the corners of their eyes inadvertently, and no one noticed.

"You two slow down, these are all yours, I won't rob you, don't choke. ”

"Ahem!" the little boy coughed a few times, and seemed to be hit by Mu Ling's words, almost choking.

Mu Ling handed over a glass of water, "Eat slowly, don't worry." It's not enough to be on point. ”

Mu Ling didn't know how long the two children hadn't eaten, and they couldn't experience the taste of seeing the last meal and not seeing the next meal.

At this time, as the elder brother of two children, he stopped and spoke, "Thank you... Sister..."

"Eat quickly, slowly. ”

The boy buried his head again, and ate more slowly.

In the past, when they were in the laneway, the mother would always walk a long way to pick up some leftovers thrown by the southerners for them to eat, although some of them had long been unable to eat, but they understood that these things could not be wasted, and the mother took them back every time, for fear that others would rob them, so the two children had to eat them within a few minutes, otherwise they would attract other wanderers.

Because it has been like this for a long time, they can't help but finish it as soon as they see it, they are afraid, they are afraid that they will not be able to eat it.

"Children, how many children like you have there?" Mu Ling just asked casually, but received a shocking answer.

"The damn ones are dead. Those who are alive should be dying. ”

When Mu Ling entered their alley, she saw a lot of wanderers, and because of the darkness of the night, she couldn't see very clearly, but she could still know that there should be other children inside.

"Little mute, can we go north again tomorrow morning?"

Bai Ye acquiesced.

"I don't think they're going to leave there yet, the woman with the hat saved my life, and I don't think they're the kind of barbaric titles. For some reason, I feel that they are still very kind. ”

"Oh, by the way, she seemed to say like she was going to do anything to her kids... I don't remember exactly. Mu Ling thought hard, but she still couldn't remember what she said.

"It doesn't matter. Bai Ye said, "If you can't think of it, forget it, we'll go again tomorrow morning." ”

"Sister—" The little boy glanced up at Mu Ling. As if he was about to say something, but swallowed it again.

"What's wrong?"

"It's okay," the little boy's eyes dodged, and then he buried it again.

Mu Ling didn't care too much, but Bai Ye was different, his ability to perceive was beyond ordinary people, the little boy wanted to say something, as if he wanted to say something, but he didn't say it. Presumably, he must know something, especially about the whereabouts of the people of the White Republic.

Mu Ling and Bai Ye didn't leave until the two children finished their meal and sent them into the room.

After the child saw the two leaving, he quickly locked the door, and the little girl's brother whispered, "It seems that they want that sister in the White Republic of China." ”

"Brother, are we going to tell them?"

"What if they're bad people just yet?"

"But that sister doesn't look like a bad person... She gave us so much food and clothing, and she saved us. ”

"Maybe it's because her mother saved her, and she's grateful!"

The little girl bowed her head silently, she saw her mother lying in a pool of blood, and she saw with her own eyes the ruthlessness of those people, all brought by the southerners.

The little girl thought silently that if only they could eat delicious meals every day like they do today.

"Brother, are we going to leave here tomorrow?"

"Probably not at the moment... Bring a little more to eat when the time comes. Let's see if we can leave the Pastoral Dust Country!"

"But my mother once said that it is very difficult to leave the country of Muchen, even after leaving, I don't know what it is like outside, what dangers will be experienced, these are unknown, we are both unarmed children, how is it possible..."

The little boy picked up his sister, "Nothing is impossible, as long as we keep going." We'll make it out alive. ”

The little girl cried, and she cried in her heart why God was so unfair.
