Chapter 144: Green Scales and Mo Chou
A child walks down a laneway with a wallet in his hand.
"Such a beautiful wallet, it should be made by a girl." The child said that he liked the wallet very much, and then he opened the wallet and poured out ten gold coins from it.
"Oh my God, I'm rich! Ten gold coins! The child's eyes narrowed, and he looked very happy.
But then his face became distressed, "But it's not enough, if you want to buy a bottle of Shengjisan, you need a hundred gold coins." It's clear that such a good-looking wallet only has this gold coin in it.
Combined with the gold coins accumulated before, there are only fifty-three, and there are still forty-seven pieces missing. ”
The child looked depressed, but put the money back in his wallet and put it close to him.
But the little one took out a gold coin and bought some meat, "which can make some good things for my sister, so that she can get better faster." ”
The child carried the meat and ran quickly in one direction.
He didn't notice that there was a man behind him who kept following.
The place where the little guy lives belongs to the slums of Stone Desert City, and it is recognized that they are all a group of people with the lowest identity, status, and family background in Stone Desert City.
No one wants to live here unless they are particularly poor.
The little guy sneaks into a house.
This is a slum, naturally it is impossible to be as safe as other Orientals, and it is normal to walk outside and be robbed of things by those unemployed vagrants (gangsters).
But that's just outside, and once they enter their own homes, the homeless people don't dare to mess around, because they will be beaten to death by the guards here.
The caretaker is composed of the three strongest mercenary groups in Stone Desert City.
As for why you want to guard here, it's also very simple, because there is a profession here called Backpacker.
The so-called backpackers are those who carry things for those mercenary groups.
Sometimes mercenary groups get a lot of items outside and need to carry them.
But once they carry too many things on their backs, it will affect the battle when they face something unexpected.
So to solve this problem, backpackers appeared.
Backpackers can be ordinary people or cultivators.
The mercenary group hires this type of people to go out with them and help them carry the items they have acquired.
The mercenary will give you a certain amount of money as a reward.
Of course, backpackers are also quite dangerous, after all, most backpackers are ordinary people, and it is very dangerous outside, and if you are not careful, you will die.
For backpackers, mercenaries have the attitude that they can help if they can, and if they can't help, they will die.
But in order to make a living, many people still choose this profession.
And in order to ensure that there are enough backpackers, the three major mercenary groups have formulated regulations here, and they have become the guardians here.
After the little guy entered the house, he breathed a sigh of relief, the so-called home is just a dilapidated house, and the layout in the house is very simple.
On a bed, a girl lay down.
"Don't worry." The girl on the bed was dressed very thinly and shabby, faintly exposing a lot of skin.
However, judging from the other party's expression, he was a little pale, and his voice was weak.
"Are you stealing again?"
The girl said angrily.
"Sister, I'm sorry." The child looked sad, "But if I don't steal money, I won't be able to help my sister buy medicine, and if I can't buy medicine, my sister will die." ”
"If it weren't for me to bother you, you should have a better life." With tears on the girl's face, "You are smarter than me, stronger than me." And I'm just a monster who shouldn't exist in this world. ”
When she said this, the girl's face was filled with sadness and inferiority, which was inferiority in her bones, not an acquired cause.
"I don't want it, I must cure my sister." The little guy said seriously, "I have no relatives anymore, my sister is my relative, I don't care what others think of my sister, in my eyes, without my sister, there is no worry." ”
"So sister, you can't give up."
The little guy held the girl's hand, "And sister, there is a magic medicine outside, called Shengjisan, as long as you buy a bottle, my sister will definitely be fine." ”
"Shengjisan can't heal your sister's injuries." The sudden sound made the faces of the two people change.
At some point, a young boy appeared in their room, sitting in the only chair they had available.
Seeing this person, the little guy's face turned pale directly.
"You, you, you......" The little guy was frightened and couldn't speak.
"Now, it's time to give me back your wallet."
Hearing this, the older girl directly understood, and directly struggled to get up from the bed, blocking the little guy behind her, and kowtowing to Xiao Luo, "Please let her go, I asked her to do all this, if you want to beat or scold, just come at me, she is still a child, please let her go." ”
"No!" The little guy came out from behind his sister and used his small body in front of his sister, "I stole it in my previous life." It's none of my sister's business. You can't beat my sister, she'll be killed. ”
Xiao Luo looked at the other party, suddenly his pupils froze, and he came directly to the elderly girl, grabbed her hand in her hand despite the other party's struggle, and lifted the clothes on her arm.
The girl's hands are different from ordinary people, and his arms have dense blue scales.
The girl's face, which was originally just scared, was suddenly completely defeated and lost its bloody color.
Perhaps because of fear, the girl's body kept trembling, trying to pull her arm out of Xiao Luo's hand.
But Xiao Luo's hands were so strong and powerful that they were like pincers that made her unable to move.
"Don't move." Xiao Luode's voice was calm and majestic, which directly made the girl forget to resist.
The other little guy hugged his sister tightly, looking nervous, she was afraid that the person in front of her would say something disgusted with her sister, and her sister was already very inferior.
The little guy looked at Xiao Luo deadly, and the person concerned had already lowered his head, only his body was still trembling.
And Xiao Luo, after exhaling lightly, took out a kettle and towel from the space.
Soak a towel with water and gently wipe the stained scales.
Finally, with a look of appreciation in his eyes, "Pretty scales, aren't they?" ”
Hearing Xiao Luo's words, the little guy looked at Xiao Luo in disbelief, and the girl in question also raised her head because of Xiao Luo's words.
From Xiao Luo's eyes, she didn't see a trace of ridicule, it was true affection, and it was the true thoughts in the other party's heart.
"You...... Aren't you afraid? The girl was a little nervous, and her voice trembled.
"Scared?" Xiao Luo was stunned for a moment, and then smiled lightly, "If this scares me, then wouldn't the people I met who could turn into beasts directly scare me to death." ”
"Besides, the cyan scales, this is the first time I've seen such fine scales.
It's beautiful.
What would you think would be scary? ”
The girl was silent, she didn't know how to answer Xiao Luo.
But the little guy on the side spoke directly, "Because many people who see my sister's scales say that she is a monster, and they all bully her and are afraid of her."
Obviously, my sister is such a gentle and kind person. ”
"Now, you see, isn't there someone who won't be afraid!" Xiao Luo smiled slightly, "By the way, my name is Xiao Luo, what about you?" ”
"Green ...... "The girl replied a little nervously.
"My name is Mo Chou." The little guy said.
Hearing the girl's name, Xiao Luo knew it in his heart, but he glanced at Mo Chou and smiled lightly.
