The sky was overcast and the wind was cold. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

On the ancient road, people were in a hurry, wrapping their clothes tightly and moving forward.

Suddenly, there was a sound of horses' hooves in front of him, and passers-by heard the sound and saw a ride coming slowly in the distance.

It was only when they got closer that they saw that it was a scrawny horse, looking a little crumbling. On horseback, the young man was single-clothed and swordsman, and he seemed to be a little distracted.

"Hmm, isn't it going to snow in this damn weather? I knew that I wouldn't have taken on this broken task......" On horseback, Chu Chen twisted his chin and was depressed.

In the past two years, there have been frequent bandit riots in the northern border of the Thunder Eagle Country, and they have killed people at every turn. The kingdom has repeatedly sent troops to suppress bandits, spending a lot of manpower and material resources, but it has always returned in vain for various reasons. Even if there are achievements, the gains outweigh the losses.

As a last resort, the kingdom had no choice but to issue a mission with the sect schools, intending to solve the problem with the help of civilian force.

Chu Chen's task this time is to level the bandits, the task requires to solve the problem of bandits in at least one village, and after the task is completed, the sect will be rewarded with ten points for contribution, and the kingdom official will be rewarded with a thousand taels of silver. On top of that, the reward is doubled for each additional village solved.

For Chu Chen, the silver two rewards for the task were secondary, and what he cared about was the contribution of the sect.

The contribution of the ten-point sect does not seem to be much, but in the Bixiao Sect, he has been able to exchange for ten low-grade star stones, or a yellow-level mid-grade martial art. This amount is equivalent to his monthly salary for five months.

Moreover, the final reward for this task is not fixed, as long as the task is completed well enough, not to mention ten points of contribution, it is not impossible to even have a hundred points.

It can be said that before leaving, Chu Chen was 100,000 satisfied with this task.

It was only on the way that he realized that the journey was too far away, and the climate was becoming less and less worry-free. The most important thing is that before he has found the location of the mission, he has already been burdened with a debt of two thousand one hundred taels of silver.

Take the safe route of Bixiao Zongxinfang to leave the deep mountains, costing two thousand taels and taking three days; After landing, Xinfang provided a horse, one hundred taels. Then it took another seven days for him to come to where he is now.

"It's too late to go back now, I still hope to meet a few more bandits sooner! Two thousand one hundred taels, double the task is still one hundred taels away......"

was depressed all the way, and suddenly a cold wind blew, and Chu Chen unconsciously shuddered. Then he felt his body sink suddenly, and hurriedly jumped away from the horse.

When he landed, he found that the horse was lying on the ground panting for a long white breath, and it seemed that his eyelids were drooping.

"It's a pity, a hundred taels of silver!" With a sigh, the horse died.

Chu Chen dug a pit on the spot and buried it, and then set off for the established direction.

It was getting late, and finally, before dark, he saw a memorial arch with the book "Qingping Town".

Walking on the street of Qingping Town, there are few pedestrians on the street, the doors around are closed, and occasionally crows fly by, and the cry of "quack" is the only sound in this world.

Chu Chen felt a little strange, it was obviously dinner time, but he couldn't see a single smoke rising from the stove, which made him wonder if there was anyone in this town.

Thinking that there was still a bit of broken silver, Chu Chen planned to find a place to live first.

Just then, a sinister laugh came from the far corner, faintly mixed with weak wails and pleas.

"There's a bully bullying someone?" Chu Chen paused, thinking that he was just looking for someone to understand the situation, so he walked towards the corner.

……

"How good is it to marry my master as a concubine early? Not to mention the delicacies of the mountains and seas, at least big fish and meat are indispensable......"

"Do you regret it now? Haha, it's too late to regret it, look at you now, where is there still the appearance of the first beauty in Qingping Town in the past? Don't talk about it, master, I can't even look down on you! ”

"Hehe, if you don't want it, let it be given to the younger brother! The little brother just lacks a warm bed, although it looks a little worse now, and it's almost the same to go back and turn off the lights again! ”

", you kid has a lot of ghosts, you want to get a sister to spend back, don't you? It is said that her sister is a beautiful embryo, but she is a little younger, only ten years old. But, ten-year-old chick, haha, you know......"

Around the corner of the street, a group of people gathered around, and foul language accompanied by bursts of evil laughter kept coming.

In the middle of the crowd, a girl was mostly prostrate on the ground, unkempt, thinly dressed, trembling with her delicate body, her fingers were red and swollen like turnips, and a pair of bright eyes and anger hid deep sadness, as if she was complaining about this evil world.

"You ...... Brute, give me back the steamed buns! The girl stubbornly raised her head, listening to the increasingly unbearable words, her heart was full of anger and powerlessness.

"Steamed buns? Haha, she wants steamed buns! Tell me, should I give it to him? One person pinched the cold steamed bun and laughed.

Immediately, someone rubbed his chest and laughed weirdly, "Give, why don't you give it?" A cold steamed bun for her two big meat buns here, making a lot of money! ”

"Yes, yes, my hands are frozen and my feet are frozen, but those good places don't freeze ......"

"Oh, what you say, the more this girl looks at it, the more intriguing it becomes, no, Lao Tzu can't help it, and they all go away, this is the goods that the old man coveted at the beginning, and now it is still the original ......"

A group of people laughed evilly, and some people on the spot couldn't bear the ** in their hearts, and they didn't care about the cold weather, and they started to undress directly. Some people take the lead, and naturally some people are aroused.

"Ah, what are you going to do? I don't care about you...... Don't come here...... "Seeing those ugly things approaching, the girl was finally scared, and she didn't care about taking back the steamed buns, so she shrank into the corner.

"Haha, don't be afraid, it's good to hurt, I want to ...... if you want it"

"Don't be verbose, hurry up, my brothers are still waiting!"

The girl's weak and frightened appearance further stimulated the beastly desire in the hearts of several people. In the foul language, a person impatiently pounced on it, frantically tearing the girl's clothes.

Looking at this person's anxious appearance, the group of people behind him couldn't stop laughing.

Suddenly, there was an "ah", and a terrible scream came, and everyone's hearts trembled and almost softened. When he calmed down, he saw that the monkey was in a hurry and clutched the place and wailed.

"What's going on?" Everyone was suspicious, and before they could figure out what was happening, they saw the man's face distorted, and his fists went crazy and beckoned to the girl.

The man's roar and the girl's miserable laughter were particularly penetrating in the fading sky.

Not long after, the man suddenly stopped and fell to the ground with a "thud".

Only then did everyone see the shocking blood marks between his legs, as if something was missing.

Looking at the girl again, the girl's mouth was bright red, as if she had smeared the most colorful dankou in the world, and she laughed miserably and spit out a piece of something, and everyone froze on the spot, chilling all over.

After a long time, someone shouted out to me, "Get on her, avenge Ding Laosi......"

Immediately, a group of people angrily and lewdly pressed forward.

The girl seemed to have given up resistance, and remained motionless, quietly looking up at the sky, remembering that the sky was so blue in the past, but now, it is gray.

"Is it dark, or is my eyes gray......"

The empty eyes were like silent questioning, but in the end, she didn't get an answer. The smirks around her were getting closer, and she knew that there was probably no way she could escape the doom that followed.

She thought of death, she subconsciously bit her tongue, but inadvertently looked at it, she saw the steamed bun that fell on the ground, and then ...... Then she no longer had the courage to commit suicide.

"What if my sister dies? She's only ten years old! ”

"That's it, that's it......"

The girl closed her eyes and waited for the doom to strike.

……

Chu Chen hurried to the corner in three or two steps, and the scene in front of him made him furious.

"Brute!"

With an angry roar, Chu Chen rushed forward. Even kicked and beaten, but in the blink of an eye, a group of "evil wolves" lay on the ground.

When Chu Chen saw the dense bruises and blood marks on the girl's body, he suddenly felt a monstrous rage in his heart, and before he knew it, his eyes were glowing with purple light.

"Ding!"

The blue water sword came out of its sheath, as if the world was quiet, and only the humming sword roared remained.

"Kill!"

The voice without the slightest emotion, like the judgment of heaven and earth, came out, clear and cold. Dao sword light leaps, the clear water is secluded, and the cold is deep to the bone. The blue water falls, and the world is quiet!

Tick!

Tick!

Blood dripped from the tip of the sword, it was a sin, and it was also Chu Chen's cracked blood.

The purple eyes receded, and Chu Chen came to the girl's side and squatted down. The girl looked at him with her eyes open, no horror, no anger, only a faint joy.

"I'm sorry, I ......"

The girl shook her head and interrupted Chu Chen's words, "Can I know your name?" ”

"My name is Chu Chen!" Chu Chen said in a deep voice, a trace of struggle flashed in his eyes after speaking, and finally he reached out to help the girl cover her clothes.

"Thank you!" The girl grabbed Chu Chen's hand, stopped his movements, let her skin be exposed, and said with a flushed face: "Can you touch me?" ”

Chu Chen was slightly stunned, then his gaze softened, and he carefully brushed towards the peak, and then slowly ...... It's light, it's soft, as if you're caressing a peerless treasure.

Halfway, Chu Chen raised his head and said with a smile: "I touched it, it's clean, really." ”

The girl smiled, "Really? Thank you, thank you for telling me, I'm still clean. Actually, I know that my body is cold and ugly......"

The girl's voice became weaker and weaker, but she still kept talking, as if she was afraid that she would not have a chance to say it again in the future.

Suddenly, she struggled to sit up, and the next moment she crawled forward, and Chu Chen could clearly see that her frostbite-covered hand was trying very hard to reach the steamed bun.

It's just that a strong wind blew, and the steamed bun was finally taken away by the vicious dog, and the rest was only the barking of the dog in the distance.

"It's just a matter of fighting with people in this life, but I didn't expect to fight with dogs when I was coming, hehe!"

Hearing the girl's words, Chu Chen turned his head. I saw that the girl stood up, her skin was exposed to the cold wind, and she smiled, her eyes were calm, and her face was like a spring flower.

After a long time, the girl carefully took out a bamboo dragonfly and said with a smile: "When I see you, I know that it is not dark, but my eyes are gray." Can you help me bring this bamboo dragonfly to my sister? Tell her that her sister has gone far, far away and will come back to see her when she grows up...... I would like to ask you to ...... if you can."

The girl had a smile on her face, but her voice grew deeper and deeper, until at last, she was completely lost in the wind.

Chu Chen silently helped her close her eyes and hugged her, the cold wind was howling, it was really cold!
