Chapter 226: Warm Hands

The horror of the Eight Heavenly Kings is something that ordinary people can't resist.

Therefore, the people living in the territory, no matter how dire the situation, they must endure it silently, such as Qin Yaoyao's brother, the innocent people who died in the tyranny of the Eight Heavenly Kings, there are countless people, Qin Yaoyao did not think about the fate of disobeying the rule of the Eight Heavenly Kings in the past, and neither did the people in the town think about it.

And those who really thought about it are already dead......

"Wu, Wen Xu? You just said that you can hunt ten snow hare in two days? ”

Qin Yaoyao's hand rubbing the hem of her skirt was already hesitant and hanging down between her skirts, just now the town elder came suddenly, and the wording she thought of didn't use it at all, but for some reason, the town elder's attitude suddenly turned a hundred and eighty degrees, which made the high-ranking town elder bow his head, Qin Yaoyao became more and more curious about the man in front of her.

The sunlight in the belly of the ice field can withstand the heavy snow clouds.

Wu Wenxu patted the tips of his hair comfortably, the bright snow precipitated on his black hair, under the slight breeze of the warm sun, was like crumpled golden sand scattered to the ground, and the snow wind that attacked people but was not cold came and wrinkled the gold, scattered on the hem of his clothes and trousers, Wu Wenxu smiled comfortably, and the whole person seemed to be covered with golden light.

"It's too stingy to catch only ten snow hares, anyway, you saved me, how can I be willing to let you suffer?"

The golden snow was very comfortable to see Qin Yaoyao, and the words 'how can I give it up' came from the man's mouth, which made her heart swell with strange feelings, she smiled and squinted her eyes, and she was a little intoxicated to see it.

"Ahem, ahem!"

A violent cough in the next room suddenly woke the girl from her dream.

After staring at him for a long time, even Qin Yaoyao herself felt embarrassed, she smiled shyly at Wu Wenxu, but she didn't question the man's almost fantastical words.

To like someone, try to believe in them. ’

As for the liking in her brother's mouth, the girl didn't think of a deeper level, she was just very simple, and she liked this unattractive man with a simple cognition, and his appearance soothed her uneasy heart.

"Auntie, Wu Wenxu is here."

Pushing open the sturdy wooden door, the aroma of steamed steamed buns came to his face, I heard that there are markets in various territories of the Eight Heavenly Kings that specialize in selling grains and grains, and the medicinal materials in the snow field are difficult to find, Qin Yaoyao relies on the herbs excavated by her skills, and goes to the market a few times, which is enough for the basic expenses of the family.

"Ahem, ahem...... Child, come closer and let your aunt take a closer look. ”

The square table was placed with chopsticks and bowls, and in the middle of the porcelain plate were five snow-white steamed buns, next to which were the green pickles that aroused people's appetite, and the steaming heat wafted out of the porridge and steamed buns.

On the left side of the table, also a little dim wall, on the bed covered with a thick quilt lay an old man over half a hundred years old, the old man's eyes were cloudy, his eyes seemed to be not very good, he kept squeezing to see himself, his gray hair and skin were dull, and he looked extremely weak.

"Hello auntie, I'm Wu Wenxu."

Although the old man's appearance was a little unbearable, her words were gentle and gentle, a typical image of a charitable grandmother, a murderous lord, who sat on the edge of the bed like a good grandson, and let the old man hold his hand.

If this scene is seen by Emperor Joodi and others, ten days of food will be spewed out!

"Oh, what a good boy."

The old man muttered a few words, and grasped Wu Wenxu's hand tighter.

Her hands seemed to have no temperature, cold and hard like ice cubes, and the old man's eyes were moist, and he reminisced and said: "My child back then, if I could be as well-behaved as you, I wouldn't have lost my life for the sake of tribute." ”

'Another wretched man persecuted by the City of Faith. ’

Wu Wenxu patted the old man's palm and comforted her with a good voice, the lord was witty, how sharp was his eloquence? After a while, the corners of the old man's eyes were coaxed away, Qin Yaoyao saw it in her heart, and couldn't help but laugh happily, for her, her aunt was happy, it was her great blessing.

The old man reluctantly let go of Wu Wenxu's hand, and said dotingly: "Wenxu, hurry up and eat, if you don't eat again, the food will be cold." ”

Wu Wenxu covered up the rumbling of his stomach very well, and said in a harmonious voice: "Auntie, I'm not hungry, I can accompany you again." ”

"You kid."

The old man saw that Wu Wenxu was becoming more and more pleasing to the eye, and originally saw that Yaoyao had rescued a person who didn't know good and evil, and wanted to call him to try the details, which is good, but now she loves this boy very much, how can it be a wicked person?

But how did she know that the well-behaved boy in front of her would be Valoran's famous and now the Lord of Diablo, Wu Wenxu!

The reason why Wu Wenxu was able to get along with the old man was also because she and Qin Yaoyao awakened the warmth and happiness that had been silenced in their hearts, such a life was an unimaginable luxury for Wu Wenxu.

Qin Yaoyao fed the old man to eat, and Wu Wenxu nibbled on steamed buns and chatted with the two of them on pickles, under the premise of not involving private matters, Wu Wenxu's opinions and talking points deeply embarrassed the old and the young, but most of the time, they spent their time stretching their brows and laughing, giving others happiness, Wu Wenxu felt a heartfelt fulfillment.

Waiting for Qin Yaoyao to finish cleaning up the dishes and chopsticks, the old man was already groggy and asleep, Wu Wenxu pulled her sleeve and whispered: "Yaoyao, I want to ask you for a favor, I need you to prepare ropes, lots and lots of ropes, when I am ready, I will go to the snow field for a trip." ”

"You, you're leaving now?"

The girl was a little surprised, if he said that the rope was prepared to bind the prey, but the man was unarmed and had just recovered from a serious illness, did he want to go to the snow field to hunt snow rabbits with the current appearance?

"I'd like to go to the snow to find out first, because time is pressing."

The girl nodded helplessly, as for the question of why she had to bring a lot of rope to explore the situation, she was automatically buried in her heart, she was simple, but she was not stupid, she knew when to say what to say, when to do what kind of thing, so Qin Yaoyao was silently busy.

In a few moments, at least twenty or so hemp ropes were crumpled into black cloth and wrapped by the girl, these ropes were thick and thin, and she carefully tied the cloth bag, and the bulging black cloth wrapped in her arms, covering her little face.

She hugged the cloth bag tightly, and did not mean to let go, but pressed her little head against the black cloth and made it out with difficulty, and said seriously: "Your fever has not completely subsided, I don't worry about you going alone, and you are not familiar with the surrounding environment, if you want a rope, you must let me accompany you." ”

After she finished speaking, she hugged the cloth bag tighter, and her eyes widened playfully, for fear that the man would be angry and forcibly take it.

"The rules of the Eight Heavenly Kings are that they don't allow magic particles in their bodies, even if the news of my unusual skills spreads, they won't be able to catch it, since she wants to follow, let her be." ’

Wu Wenxu thought about it and couldn't help but shrug his shoulders in agreement.

With the permission of the man, Qin Yaoyao's heart became cheerful, the snow field was sparsely populated, lonely and lonely, and a girl's family was in a deserted snow field, so it was inevitable that she would feel afraid.

Two months ago, Mu Ting, who was the same age as herself in the town, heard that she was arrested by traffickers while collecting medicine, Mu Ting's mother almost cried blind for this matter, and then the whole village searched for it, only found a cotton shoe next to a haystack, and a large basket was buried......

When my brother didn't leave, there was still someone to accompany me to collect medicine, and now that my brother is gone, when will I not be afraid to go out? And it's great to have a man with you today.

Seeing that Wu Wenxu agreed to her request, Qin Yaoyao immediately handed the package to Wu Wenxu with a smile, she took down the rusty sickle from the wall, and put the basket on her back neatly.

A town with thousands of people a decade ago is now decadent and depressed.

With the passage of time, everyone knew that it was only a matter of time before the town was annihilated under the rule of King Min, but even if they could survive for a day, no matter how hard it was, they wanted to live.

There was a new face suddenly in the town, everyone did not show too much expectation and welcome, Wu Wenxu found that most of the people who came to him were numb, except for Qin Yaoyao who greeted him eagerly, they nodded coldly, and occasionally a few responded, and they were also young boys and girls who passed by in a hurry.

This phenomenon was maintained until the two of them came to the exit of the town, and they no longer saw the houses and staggered roads, Qin Yaoyao said embarrassedly: "Actually, everyone is very enthusiastic on weekdays, but it's just ...... The day after tomorrow will be the day when the general will receive tribute, and to be honest, when I think of those soldiers who have no regard for human life, my heart is also very worried. ”

Wu Wenxu paused, and suddenly asked, "When the tribute is sufficient, do they have a strong man to be sad?" ”

Qin Yaoyao said fearfully: "Yes, but very few, unless someone annoys the general, or the general has a crush on a certain woman." ”

"In that case, don't worry about it."

Wu Wenxu raised his hand and put it on the tip of the girl's hair, his hand was not very big, but it had a different kind of warmth.

'It seems to be, my brother's hand......

Qin Yaoyao felt the temperature of her palm, tilted her head and smiled.

Her nose was like the fluttering wings of a butterfly in spring, her lips were like cherries on the branches, and she suddenly said in a ghostly voice: "Will you protect me like a brother?" ”

Wu Wenxu touched the palm of Qin Yaoyao's hair, and suddenly stiffened, for a long time, he stared at the girl's expectant and misty eyes, and said very seriously: "Of course." ”

"From now on, you Qin Yaoyao will be protected by me!"
