Reikaze Island.

In the barren land, the crops are not rising very well, but there will be some harvests, and these harvests will probably keep the inhabitants of this island from dying of hunger.

Of course, there is a premise for all this, and that is to look at the sky.

The wind and rain are good, and everything is fine.

"Master, there is a house in front."

Guan Hu's white hand pointed to a place in front of him, although the light was very dim, but he could barely see the outline of the black house.

"Well, let's go over and find the inhabitants of this island, and we can probably ask where Xiaolian's home is."

Chen Beibei walked towards the house and said as he walked.

The gods all followed closely behind Chen Beibei, in case there was any danger suddenly in such a strange environment.

The house is a very ordinary sea sand house, and the walls are basically not made of bricks or anything like that, but are all made of sea sand.

This kind of house is undoubtedly quite cheap for people who live by the sea.

However, this untreated sea sand is mixed with a lot of harmful substances, and this kind of house is very easy to collapse.

Most of the people who choose to live in this kind of house will not have a good financial situation in their families.

"I'll knock on the door, you guys wait here."

Chen Beibei looked at his Shishen and said to them.

At this time, it was late at night, and Chen Beibei and they were strangers who had never been to this small island, if so many people went at once, Chen Beibei was worried that the owner of the house would be frightened, so he chose to knock on the door alone.

"Yes, master."

Gu Huoniao replied.

Chen Beibei walked towards the house, then knocked lightly on the door a few times, and soon there was a sound of footsteps in the house.

It's a strange footstep sound.

There is a rustle of shoes dragging against the ground that sounds a little scary, especially on a dark night like this.

"Squeak......

The door opened, and a man standing with a crooked body appeared in front of Chen Beibei, because his body was crooked, and the man was not tall, so he looked much shorter than Chen Beibei.

"Are you ......?"

The man looked at Chen Beibei with a suspicious look, and then asked.

The man's gaze made Chen Beibei a little uncomfortable, as if there was an ant slowly crawling on his body, but Chen Beibei didn't show it.

"I'm from somewhere else and want to know something about Xiaolian, excuse me, do you know where Xiaolian's home is?"

Chen Beibei looked at the man and said to him.

The man's face was pitted, and his skin was dark, as if it had been eroded by the scorching sun and sea breeze.

A look of anger appeared on the man's face, and then he snapped the door shut: "You are in the wrong place, there is no one named Xiaolian on this island." ”

The door has been closed, and Chen Beibei has no choice at this time.

When that man heard the name Xiaolian, he would react like this, which Chen Beibei didn't expect at all.

Although Xiaolian is dead.

However, just ask about her, and it won't be like that.

"Master, what's wrong?"

The Snow Girl walked up to Chen Beibei's side and asked him.

"He doesn't seem to be willing to tell us about Xiaolian, and he's already closed the door, let's move on to the next one."

Chen Beibei looked at the Snow Girl and replied.

Now that he has come to Lingfeng Island, Zashiki Boy also wants to know why Xiaolian was sent to Chunyu Street by her parents.

Therefore, Chen Beibei naturally would not give up so easily.

The man's reaction made Chen Beibei more determined to figure out Xiaolian's matter.

I didn't walk forward for long, and I soon saw the next house, the same small house with sea sand, with a sense of vicissitudes eroded by the wind and sand.

This kind of house, in fact, is not suitable for living at all.

Leaving aside the slow damage to the body, the risk of collapse at any time will already make many people give up such a house.

"It seems that the people on this island are indeed very poor."

Chen Beibei looked at the sea sand house full of tiny holes in front of him, and said secretly in his heart.

"There is light leaking out of the window, the people in the house, probably not sleeping yet, I will go and knock on the door first, you don't come."

As before, Chen Beibei knocked on the door alone, and the Shishen stood not far away, making sure that they would not scare the person who opened the door.

"Who?"

Before the door opened, a loud voice came from inside, it was a woman's voice, the dantian was very angry, and the sound shook the sand on the sand wall.

"It's just a passing traveler, hoping to ask you something."

Chen Beibei replied.

"Bang."

The door opened, and it opened directly to the maximum, and a relatively fat middle-aged woman appeared in front of Chen Beibei, with a relatively average appearance and turbulent waves.

"What do you want to ask?"

The woman looked at Chen Beibei and asked him.

There was no disgust or annoyance on the woman's face, just a normal conversation.

"Regarding Xiaolian's matter, on this island, there should be a girl named Xiaolian, fifteen or sixteen years old, and her appearance is relatively delicate."

Chen Beibei looked at the woman. replied.

When she heard the name Xiaolian, the woman's eyes looked at Chen Beibei inside and out several times, and finally seemed to see that Chen Beibei did not look like a bad person, so she spoke: "She...... It's already dead......"

When the fat woman said this, she almost reached Chen Beibei's ear, and her voice was also very low, as if she was afraid of being heard by others.

Of course, it is also possible that you just want to create an atmosphere of "this is a secret".

The woman said these things to Chen Beibei, which made Chen Beibei feel that the woman in front of him did not seem to be taboo to talk about Xiaolian.

This is good news for Chen Beibei.

"Can you tell me about her?"

Chen Beibei looked at the fat woman and asked her.

"Come in and talk about it."

The fat woman turned sideways and let Chen Beibei enter the house, but Chen Beibei did not enter immediately, because, at this time, Chen Beibei's gods were still waiting for him not far away.

Chen Beibei turned around, looked at Gu Xuniao for a moment, and conveyed, "I'm fine, don't worry." Such information is supreme before entering the house.

The woman closed the door, and both the bird and the dog god couldn't help but get nervous.

After all, if the door is closed, then there is no way to see Chen Beibei, and there is no way to know whether Chen Beibei is safe.

"I ...... I'm going to protect the master......"

The Dream Eater said timidly.

Although the Dream Eater Tapir has always been with Chen Beibei and them, it is basically the type that does not speak at all, and even the sense of existence has completely disappeared.

Probably because the dream-eating tapir sometimes turns its body into the shape of air, forming a kind of false invisibility.

They looked towards the place where the dream-eating tapir was making a sound.

Where there was nothing originally.

A splash of color slowly appeared, then quickly spread, eventually taking the form of a dream-eating tapir, a strange beast with an elephant's trunk that looked like a pig.

"Dream Eater, please."

Gu Huoniao looked at the dream tapir and said gratefully.

In this place, there is only one hidden monster that can pass through the wall, so there is only one dream tapir, so the only monster that can enter the house without being detected and monitor everything that happens in the house is the dream tapir.

"Hmmm......"

When the Dream Tapir walked on the sand, the sand did not change, not even the footprints remained, as if it was stepping through the air, this is because the body of the Dream Tapir has no real weight.

Originally, it was a "virtual" existence, without a real body, but because of his obsession and aura, he was able to transform into a demon and master the ability to control dreams.

The Dream Eater's body passed directly through the sand wall, and then disappeared in front of everyone......

……

in the house.

A small black-and-white TV with a boring soap opera playing in it, but the fat woman seems to like it.

Even in the middle of the conversation, the TV was not turned off.

"Why do you want to inquire about Xiaolian?"

The fat woman asked.

"Because ......"

Chen Beibei suddenly didn't know how to answer, after all, it was Zashiki Boy who asked about Xiaolian, because Zashiki Boy wanted to know what the girl had experienced, and what she thought in her heart.

"Because, you like her, don't you?"

The fat woman seemed to see through Chen Beibei at a glance, and her face was full of pride.

In order to continue chatting, Chen Beibei naturally couldn't deny the fat woman's speculation at this time, so he had to continue to follow the fat woman's words and go on.

"Please...... You tell me about her, why her parents sent her to Spring Rain Street, why she died suddenly by the sea......"

Chen Beibei did not answer the fat woman's previous question.

Because there was no answer, there was no denial.

In the heart of the fat woman, she naturally felt that Chen Beibei really liked Xiaolian, after all, between men and women, apart from this, there didn't seem to be too much other feelings.

Her parents sent her to Chunyu Building, probably because the family had no money, but the other three children were too young to starve, so they did it. However, it's really too much to do this, after all, it's my own daughter. ”

The fat woman said slowly.

There was also a hint of wanting to hug Xiaolian on her face, probably a more cheerful woman.

Actually, this fat woman still has a good impression of Chen Beibei.

It's the kind of person who is more straightforward and has no heart.

"So, how did she die?"

Chen Beibei looked at the fat woman and continued to ask.

"I've only just heard about this, Xiaolian's body was found on the beach, and then, her parents went to collect her body and buried it on Lingfeng Island. When Xiaolian was buried, their family didn't even do anything for nothing, but they were buried hastily. ”

The fat woman replied.

The scenes on the TV are switching, the light is flickering on and off, and when it shines on people's faces, it looks a little weird.

"Probably because there is no money, after all, Xiaolian has just gone out and has not received guests yet."

Chen Beibei said.

If Xiaolian's parents really had no money at home, and the other children were starving, then there would be no need to perform such a ritual as a white affair.

At this time, the dream-eating tapir had already come to the room where Chen Beibei and the fat woman were.

Lying quietly on the side of Chen Beibei's feet, with a relatively relaxed posture and a slightly chubby body, he looked cute.

The Dream Eater Tapir was invisible, so neither the woman nor Chen Beibei saw her.

If Chen Beibei opens the spiritual eye, then he can still see the dream-eating tapir, but at this time, there is no need for Chen Beibei to open the spiritual eye.

After all, now it's just a conversation with an ordinary woman.

"Well, that's what I said, but I still feel that Xiaolian is very pitiful, a girl who is obviously very kind, but she ended up like this."

The fat woman sighed, then said.

The black-and-white TV, I don't know why, suddenly turned into a snowflake, shaking constantly, accompanied by some sizzling of electricity.

"This Broken TV ......"

The fat woman lifted her foot and kicked the wooden table that supported the TV, which shook violently and the TV almost fell off.

It's just a bit of a stretch, though.

The TV was still standing firmly on the wooden table, and the picture that had been lost was returned.

"May I ask, where is Xiaolian's home?"

Chen Beibei looked at the fat woman and asked her.

At this time, some things about Xiaolian have probably been asked. Therefore, Chen Beibei planned to go directly to Xiaolian's house to have a look.

If it is really as the fat woman and Chunlou's mother said, then Xiaolian's younger brothers and sisters are really suffering from hunger at the moment.

If they can be found, Chen Beibei can still tide them over this difficulty.

After all, it's just too simple to be full.

Rice, it's really cheap......

"If you walk about a kilometer to the west, you can see a house that is even more dilapidated than my house, and that is Xiaolian's home."

The fat woman looked at Chen Beibei and replied to him.

"Well, thank you."

After Chen Beibei finished speaking, he stood up and planned to leave.

In this fat woman's room, there is a double bed, and there are men's shoes next to the bed, presumably her husband's.

Although Chen Beibei just came to inquire about some things.

But even so, he still didn't want to be bumped into by his husband, so as not to have any unnecessary misunderstandings.

"Are you leaving?"

The woman asked.

"Well, let's go to Xiaolian's house."

Chen Beibei replied.

"Alright then, I'll send you out."

The fat woman sent Chen Beibei out, looked at Chen Beibei's departing back, sighed softly, and then slowly closed the door.

It wasn't until Chen Beibei couldn't be seen at all in the crack of the door that he turned around and went back to his room.

"The host ,......"

As soon as Chen Beibei went out, the voice of the dream tapir sounded at his feet, the voice was very soft, soft, and with a feeling of shyness......

Everyone go to bed early~
