Origin World Chapter 216 Bandits
They were a group of homeless people who were dying of starvation, and the kind villagers took them in, gave them food, and gave them a safe place to live, but instead of repaying the favor, the group of people also turned their minds on the wife and daughter of the kind villager who took them in. ”
"They violated them, even killed the kind villagers who helped them, and not only that, but they also looted our money and our food, and we have been in fear for a month, and we have not slept well!"
"This group of people not only repaid the favor, but even killed the people who reached out to them, and also violated his wife and children, is this still a person? It's just a brute!" After listening to what the old woman said, Hua Yao only felt that her anger had reached her throat, and she could spew it out at any time, although she had also heard of some things, but it was the first time that such a person was angry.
"After all, it's a hungry wolf, old woman, it's always unsafe here, if you don't want to be harassed by thieves anymore, it's better to move out earlier!" Li Ruochu sighed slightly and suggested.
"Love, you can help the old woman! You see that the old woman's legs and feet are so inconvenient and she specially invited us into the house, let's repay her!
"But......" Li Ruochu stopped talking, his primary goal now was to find a way to restore his strength and let the Yao Hua in his martial vein space open, instead of wasting time here.
"Love......" Seeing that Li Ruochu was a little hesitant, Hua Yao stepped forward and directly grabbed Li Ruochu's hand and kept shaking.
"Grunt~" At this moment, a gurgling sound suddenly came from Hua Yao's abdomen, Hua Yao rubbed her stomach and smiled embarrassedly.
"Haha! You must be hungry, come, old woman, I'll make a stove for you!" Hearing the gurgling sound of Hua Yao's stomach, the old woman smiled kindly, and struggled to get up and came to the stove.
"Old woman, I really don't need to~" The old woman was already inconvenient, and Li Ruochu didn't want her to be busy for herself.
"Old woman, I haven't had a guest like you in my house for a long time! I'm happy today, old woman, so I'll make you more, I heard that you are going to Sol City, this distance is not far, you can also take it with you as dry food!" The old woman lit the firewood, dragged the old body to the bedside, groped around the pillow, and took out a small bag of flour from a camera obscura, "This is the old woman, I secretly hid it, and it was not discovered by those thieves!"
"Old woman, ...... you" Hua Yao's eyes were a little moist, not only her, but also the tip of Li Ruochu's nose began to become sour.
"Okay~ Don't look at it, come and give my wife a hand!" walked to the stove again, the old woman waved her hand at the two, Li Ruochu and Hua Yao didn't say anything, and they also came to the old woman's side happily.
"Come on, the noodle stick, the water, and the noodles I have carefully prepared, with it, you can eat hot steamed buns!" Under the command of the old woman, Li Ruochu and Hua Yao served water for a while and handed over tea for a while, and they were very busy.
"The heat is also particular, not too big or too small, to achieve the purple flame just contaminated the pot surface, but also to let the bottom of the pot evenly heated. Only in this way can the small steamed buns inside reach the saturation in the true sense!" The old woman lowered her body and added a handful of firewood to the stove, and then closed the lid of the pot.
"Okay, wait for a while, the fresh steamed buns will be baked. Seeing that she was almost busy, the old woman returned to the bench and sat down with the support of Li Ruochu and Hua Yao.
As the minutes ticked by, the enticing scent filled the room.
"It's so fragrant!" Smelling this rich aroma, Hua Yao's stomach not only screamed louder, but even saliva almost flowed out.
"Alright, now is the time to witness the miracle!" Seeing that the time was ripe, the old woman propped herself up again and stepped forward to uncover the pot.
"Huh!" In an instant, the white mellow smoke covered the entire room, and smelling this rich fragrance, Li Ruochu's appetite increased greatly, and his stomach began to growl.
"Come~ You're welcome, this is for you!" The old woman picked up a plate of white steamed buns and put them all in front of Li Ruochu and Hua Yao.
"Well, then I'm welcome!" her eyes flashed with longing, Hua Yao grabbed the steamed bun directly and stuffed it into her mouth!
"Hahaha~ Eat slowly, there's more!" the old woman looked at Hua Yao, who was gobbling up, and said, with a kind smile on her face.
"Get out of here!" Who started the stove?" Just as the three of them were talking warmly, an angry roar suddenly came from outside the house.
"What's going on?" Li Ruochu was startled and hurriedly asked.
"It's those bandits, they found out that I started the stove!" the old woman was a little panicked, and hurriedly covered the steamed pot that had already been opened, and the smoke that filled the house also dispersed.
"Bandits?" Li Ruochu's eyes narrowed slightly, and he looked at the group of strong men with five people through the crack in the door, the five people were fierce and vicious, and they knew at a glance that they were not good goods.
"Isn't it you? Open the door for me!" The flat-headed man led by the five strong men held big knives and kicked open the door of the house next to him, and Li Ruochu of that family knew that it was their rising smoke that attracted him and Hua Yao to come.
"It's not me! It's not me! It's really not me!" The door was kicked open, and a man suddenly appeared in front of the strong man and knelt down with a pop, kowtowing to the flat-headed man all the time.
"Get out of here!" the flat-headed man directly slapped the man away and strode into the room.
The man's room was a tattered and mud-clad room, and the only furniture in the house was a wooden bed and a stove.
The sharp-mouthed strong man next to the flat-headed man walked to the stove and touched it, saying, "Boss, the temperature of this stove is still there, and it is obvious that it has just been extinguished." ”
"You dare to lie to us?" the flat-headed man stared at the man who was on his knees, and a fierce look flashed in his eyes.
"My daughter has a cold, I just want to cook some medicine for her, I just cook some medicine to eat~" The man who knelt on the ground pleaded vigorously, and at the same time took out the bowl of medicine that had already been drunk and put it in front of the flat-headed man.
"Hmm~" The flat-headed man looked at the girl lying on the bed, and his eyes gestured to the sharp-mouthed man.
The sharp-mouthed man understood, stepped forward to check the used bowl, and then lifted the lid of the pot on the stove and said, "Boss, it is indeed a trace of medicine, they are just cooking a medicine~"
"Hmph, count you as acquaintances!" The flat-headed man took the bowl, smashed it hard, and walked out of the room directly with a few people.
"Boss, how's it going?" The sharp-mouthed man asked as he walked out of the room where the man was.
"Find! Find it one by one! You must find the person who started the stove today, otherwise you will catch a cold and take medicine for the whole village!" The flat-headed man's eyes flashed with a touch of ruthlessness, and after receiving the flat-headed man's instructions, the four men behind him also began to act, knocking on the doors of each house one by one.
"Say, is it your stove?"
"No, no, no, no, no, no, no
"Isn't it you?"
"It's not!"
"Say, who the hell is it?"
"Let go of my child, let go of my child!"
"Say, who the hell?"
"Old man Cui~" Seeing the old man who was pulled out of his beard, the old woman who helped Li Ruochu and Hua Yao moved slightly, the old man was alone like her, and it was really not easy to live here.
"They're too much! Go out and teach them a lesson!" Hua Yao was angry, and waved her little fist, if it weren't for her lack of strength, she might have to break out.
"Don't worry, old woman, leave this group of people to me to deal with!" Li Ruochu took a bite of the steamed bun in his hand, and then slowly pushed open the wooden door in front of him.
"Let go of my child, I said, I said, it was Mrs. Jiang who did it!"
"It's Mrs. Jiang!"
Under the persecution of the four bandits, all the villagers confessed to Mrs. Jiang, and the caliber of several people was almost identical, which not only made the bandits focus on the door that they had never opened.
Hearing that everyone confessed to Mrs. Jiang in order to survive, Li Ruochu chuckled in his heart, and his action to push the door stopped instantly.
Li Ruochu hesitated, he was thinking about whether to save this group of people who did not hesitate to betray Jiang's wife in order to survive.
"Old woman......" Hua Yao said softly.
"Young man, you go~" Old woman Jiang shook her head, her eyes signaled to Li Ruochu, she understood the distress of those villagers, if she wasn't forced to be anxious, they wouldn't confess to her at all.
"I know!" Li Ruochu nodded heavily, pushed the door and stepped in.
"Boss, do you want to go in and have a look? this house doesn't look like it's inhabited!" asked the sharp-mouthed man, looking in the direction everyone was pointing.
"Go!" the flat-headed man ordered, and he strode towards it.
"Squeak~" Just when the five of them were just stepping, a push on the door suddenly sounded, the door of the dilapidated house in front of them was opened, and a teenager suddenly appeared in front of them, it was a teenager wearing a ponytail and a vest, and the handsome appearance of the teenager made the thieves look twice.
"Who are you kid?" the sharp-mouthed man said, but when he saw the steamed bun in the young man's hand, his eyes suddenly lit up, "Boss, boss, look! Isn't that kid in his hand just food?
"Hehe! take him down!" The flat-headed man sneered, no nonsense, and went straight to the action, it seemed that they had been hungry for a long time.
"Want this?" Looking at the four thieves who pounced on him, Li Ruochu raised the steamed bun in his right hand and stuffed it directly into his mouth, the steamed bun stuffed Li Ruochu's mouth to the brim, and his speech was a little slurred, "Even if I eat it, I won't give it to you!"
