Xiao Zhen lowered his eyebrows, didn't say a word, silently walked to the three children who were huddled together, but had complete hands and feet, and found a spare place to sit down, even in this cold winter, the smell in this room is by no means good, the two middle-aged beggars glanced at Xiao Zhen lightly, didn't say anything, and turned to leave.

"Little, little brother, where are you from?" After the two middle-aged beggars went out, one of the three children, a little girl who was huddled together not far from him, raised her eyes and looked at him twice, and asked in a low voice.

"Far away, how long have you been in?" Xiao Nan turned her eyes and glanced at the little girl, this little girl's face was painted black, she couldn't see her appearance at all, judging by her figure and voice, she was probably a little smaller than herself, only about five or six years old, her eyes were different from the gray and dazed of other children, although they were full of fear, they were clear and smart.

"We've been in for five days." The little girl replied in a low voice.

"Don't speak, you newcomers, don't you still see that your hands and feet are growing on your body well, and your heart is not stable, so we have to break it and discount it to be quiet?" Xiao Zhen was about to ask a few more questions, but the door of the shack was suddenly opened, and two strong men with meaty faces walked in, staring at Xiao Zhen and the other three children with intact hands and feet with murderous faces.

Xiao Zhen and the other three children listened to a mixture of excitement, and didn't dare to say more than half a word, everyone lay down silently, rolled up their bodies, shrunk into a roll, and no one came in to distribute food at night, only gave each person a piece of tattered black fur, let them cover their bodies, the night passed quickly, and the next day was just dawn, including Xiao Zhen, a group of children were kicked awake.

When they woke up, they saw two cook-like people come in, one of them was carrying a small wooden bucket, and the other was holding a stack of broken bowls, and after the two came in, the man with the bowl first placed the bowl in front of the children, and the man with the bucket scooped half a bowl of pale green porridge water into each bowl, which could illuminate the human figure, and the porridge water was so clear that it could not smell the fragrance of the grain, but the continuous heat caused the children to take the porridge soup in the bowl and pour it into their mouths.

Xiao Zhen looked at the other people's scrambled appearance, he didn't dare to slack off, quickly picked up the bowl next to him, and poured it into his mouth, I don't know what this porridge is cooking, the color is weird, not to mention, it smells slightly fishy, and it is fishy and bitter in the mouth, so that Xiao Zhen, who drank this thing for the first time, almost vomited it on the spot.

Fortunately, this baby is not an ordinary child, when he took the bowl and poured it into his mouth, he paid attention to the looks of the two cooks who shared the rice for them, and sure enough, the kitchen worker who finished setting the bowl was always on him after sending out the bowl, Xiao Zhen absolutely believed that if he dared to spit out the porridge he drank, there would be no good fruit to eat to greet him, and his thoughts fell here, Xiao Nan endured the discomfort of his stomach, closed his eyes, and poured a bowl of porridge water into his mouth.

No matter what it is and what bad effect it has, since the children here are eating it, it means that this thing cannot be eaten for the time being, and if you want to live, you must not show that you are too different from other people, let alone do it against them, Xiao Zhen said to herself silently in her heart.

"After eating, get ready to work, when it's dark, if you can't complete the task, don't expect to eat today, as for the three of you, it's been a few days since you came in, if you can't complete the task today, it means that it's really not good to keep your hands and feet, I'll help you interrupt it at night." After the children finished eating, the two middle-aged beggars who appeared yesterday came in, his eyes swept lightly on the children's faces, and said lightly.

The three children suddenly shrank when they heard the voice, but none of them dared to resist, obviously everyone had suffered enough in the past few days, and after a while, the ten children in the house walked out one after another, and when Xiao Zhen was the only one left in the house, the beggar's eyes finally moved to Xiao Zhen: "As for you, it must be really remarkable to be able to get the praise of Lord Yan Helm for being stable and intelligent, but no matter how great you are, when you come to us, don't expect to have another chance to go out." ”

"On your first day, you are not familiar with the surrounding environment, today I will take you, understand the beginning, you and other children in a group, since you are so smart, you must be better at begging for money than others, in the future, your task is double that of other children, if you can't do it, the punishment will also be doubled."

Xiao Zhen raised his eyes and glanced at this person, and quickly lowered his gaze, without saying a word, the middle-aged beggar probably didn't expect Xiao Zhen to say anything, after he finished saying this, he took out a box from his body, and after the lid of the box was opened, a box of black whirring and fishy paste was revealed, the man took out a small flat-bottomed wooden spoon from the lid of the box, picked out a little, and carefully applied it to Xiao Zhen's face with the bottom of the spoon.

The paste with a faint fishy smell was constantly smeared on Xiao Zhen's beautiful little face, and his stomach juice churned endlessly, Xiao Zhen endured the discomfort, closed his mouth, and still did it by him without saying a word, after wiping it, he wiped his hand again, the middle-aged beggar was obviously very satisfied with Xiao Zhen's cooperation, he covered the lid of the box and spoke: "It's a well-informed boy, don't cry or make trouble, and know how to cooperate, if you can always be so well-behaved, you will suffer a lot less." ”

Xiao Zhen still didn't speak, after the middle-aged beggar finished his face, he threw a set of tattered and dirty clothes to him, Xiao Zhen silently took off the clothes on his body and put on this set of clothes, after dressing up, Xiao Zhen's whole person became a little beggar with a faint fishy smell all over his body, at this time, if he didn't speak, even if Lin or Xiao Nan stood in front of him, he might not be able to recognize it.

The middle-aged beggar was obviously very satisfied with this, he put on makeup for Xiao Zhen after putting on makeup, and then put on a makeup for himself, and when he took Xiao Zhen out of the shack, he had become a stiff body, wrinkled old beggar, the two of them staggered through several secluded and dilapidated alleys, and walked for more than half an hour before they came to the crowded street, Xiao Zhen quietly looked at the surrounding environment, and could roughly see that this was a bigger city than Song County, but where it was, he couldn't see it at all.

The middle-aged beggar took him to a place that was not the main city at first glance, but there were quite a lot of pedestrians kneeling down on the side of the road, Xiao Zhen knelt with him with low eyebrows, looking sad and pitiful, and after a while, someone threw a few copper plates into the broken bowl beside them, and at the same time sighed: "Hey, they all say that Jinan Mansion is rich, I didn't expect that there are such miserable poor people, look at this pair of grandchildren, old old, small, such a cold weather, dressed like this in the layman begging, I don't know how many days it can last."
