After eating two mouthfuls of grass, Xiao Hei angrily smashed a few grasses to the ground, and went into the house to find Maren: "Is there any money?"

"Yes, not much. Mullen took out a dry money bag from his bosom and poured out about 10 copper coins.

Looking at the coins in Mullen's hand, Xiao Hei instantly realized, no wonder Mullen's family is so poor.

Take a hatchet and go hunting, you hunt a fart.

It's a miracle to be alive until now.

"Come with me! I can't guarantee you a lot of money, but I can be sure that you'll have enough to eat every meal, at least not the cold, hard stuff. "Little Black has compassion for Mullen.

Through the previous conversation, Xiao Hei was almost certain that Maren was not born this way.

It speculated that Mullen was greatly stimulated by the death of his parents, coupled with the fact that he lived alone in the middle of the barren mountains and mountains, and no one enlightened him in time, so that he slowly became unable to cry, laugh, and not know how to express his emotions.

"I'm not going. This time Mullen's words were a little faster than before, tears welling up in his eyes, and they slipped silently: "I'm going to wait here for my father and mother to come back, they told me when they hid me, they will come back for me." ”

Seeing Maren's appearance, Xiao Hei's heart was a little uncomfortable.

Mullen witnessed the death of his parents, but he was deluding himself into denying it for the sake of the warmth that remained in the broken wooden house.

Xiao Hei, who had always talked a lot, opened his mouth, and he wanted to tell Mullen that his parents were no longer back, and that the warm place that had given him had become a cage that bound him, but the words came to his lips and swallowed them back.

Maren has been able to persevere until now, and what reason does he have to destroy the last good in his heart.

Mullen wiped the tears from his face, did not sob, did not choke, this is a slight redness on the tip of his nose: "Let's go, I'll take you to the town to buy food." ”

"This, actually. ”

Blackie wanted to say no, but before he could finish his sentence, Mullen had already left the door.

Xiao Hei had to hurriedly climb on top of Erha's head and keep up with Ma Lun.

Although the dirt path is not wide, it is fortunately smooth.

With Erha walking quickly, they came to a nearby town near noon.

Before entering the town, two townspeople walked out of the town.

"Did you hear that? The wolf mercenary group was wiped out?"

"I heard about it, I heard about it, and I said that there was a big fire that lit up the sky. ”

"These damn guys, who have done all the bad things, have finally been destroyed this time, so fucking happy!"

Hearing the news that the Wolf Mercenary Group had been wiped out, Mullen's body shook twice and almost fell.

Xiao Hei, who almost couldn't help but want to ask the two townspeople about Li Feng's situation, immediately asked Erha to stand by Ma Lun's side.

The calf was lightly touched by Erha, and Ma Lun came back to his senses and looked down at Xiao Hei beside him: "I'm fine." ”

How can it be okay?

The belief that sustained him to survive collapsed in an instant, and how long could he hold on for a promise that would never become a reality?

"It's okay. Xiao Hei looked at Ma Lun with some concern: "Why don't you go with me?" ”

This time Mullen did not directly refuse: "I'll think again. ”

Thinking about it again, it means that there is a play, and Xiao Hei can't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

After buying 5 white breads in the town, Xiao Hei and his party left the town.

Just out of the town, Xiao Hei stuffed white bread into his mouth, and couldn't wait to ask Marlen, "Have you thought about it?"

Mullen lowered his head and shook slightly.

"Then think again. ”

It was already half the afternoon when he followed Mullen back to the cabin.

Ma Lun asked Xiao Hei and Erha to rest in the house, and walked outside the house alone, under the scorching sun, holding a firewood knife to the air to make a chopping motion.

In the past, Maren practiced this movement to exercise his body, hoping to seek revenge on the wolf mercenary group one day.

And now, he has no reason.

Looking blankly ahead, Mullen's hand waved mechanically.

Wow!

Once, twice, five, ten... A hundred times... Five hundred times...

After dark, Blackie wakes up from his sleep.

Climbing out of the cabin, it saw that Mullen was still repeating the motion.

Xiao Hei shook his head and shouted at Maren, "You can't do this!"

Maren gasped and turned back, the sweat had completely penetrated his animal skin clothes, and the sweat on his face had dried for an unknown number of times, and had formed sweat marks and clung to his face.

"Do you want to be stronger? I can teach you. Although Mullen did not agree to officially join the team, Xiao Hei ate other people's white bread after all.

Eating people is soft-mouthed, if you can help Maren become stronger, it can be regarded as a matter of Xiao Hei's heart.

Maren nodded: "Yes." ”

Malen said that he thought about it, but Xiao Hei was stunned for a moment, and then he remembered that the mobile phone was still on Li Feng's body!

Without a mobile phone, without a channel to communicate with Azure Star, it has no superpowers.

It's all over the calf!

"Well, if you want to get stronger, you have to walk out with me, to Kahran. Xiao Hei was afraid that Malen would not know where Kahlan was, so he specially explained: "Kahlan is the capital of Odo, in another country. ”

"Good!"

So agreed?

Xiao Hei had an unreal feeling, he was obviously hesitant before, what changed him?

In fact, Xiao Hei thinks too much, and Malen has never changed.

He is still the sad, wooden, stupid, and expressionless Mullen.

The reason why Maren was able to agree to Xiao Hei was only because of the sweat from the strenuous exercise, and the dull mood was released.

At the same time, he also figured out that some things were time to let go.

"So, let's leave early tomorrow morning?" Xiao Hei lowered his head and tilted his head to look at Mullen.

"Good!"

The night passed quickly.

When Blackie woke up, Mullen had already gathered his salute and knelt down in front of it.

Without much negotiation, they left the hut after a hasty breakfast.

Stepping out of the collapsing fence onto the dirt path, Mullen took one last look at the dilapidated wooden house, took a deep breath, and turned away.
