Chapter Seventy-Five: Inky Night
Night.
Chen Qing peeled off the shell of the centipede, removed the poisonous places, and roasted the tender flesh inside.
"Rustling ......"
In the sound of footsteps, a child appeared in front of him, his dirty little face was flushed, and he seemed to be a little embarrassed: "Uncle, I'm here again." β
"Take it, it's cooked, eat it hot." Chen Qing smiled and handed over a piece of fragrant, golden and crispy meat.
The centipede was huge in size and covered in meat, and he couldn't eat it alone, so it wouldn't affect his cultivation progress because he had an extra mouth.
"Thank you, uncle." The child took it and said gratefully.
He was obviously hungry and ate it in large gulps.
Chen Qing also ate without any image, because the centipede meat was very tender and melted in the mouth, which was really good.
One big and one small, the two had dinner, and Chen Qing asked, "What's your name?" β
"Liu Yufei." He replied, "Rainy rain, Fei is the grass word for Fei." β
"Liu Yufei?" Chen Qing said silently, staring at the contours of her face a little strangely, "Why is it a bit like a girl's name?" β
Liu Yufei: "......"
She was a little stunned, and looked at Chen Qing with surprised and puzzled eyes.
The two stared at each other silently, time passed little by little, and the awkward atmosphere crept in.
"So you're a girl." Chen Qing smiled, a little surprised.
The other party's face was dirty, full of stains, plus he was malnourished and skinny on weekdays, and he was also fourteen or fifteen years old, whether it was male or female, he had not yet reached the time when the Adam's apple developed, he would inevitably be wrong.
"Hmm."
Liu Yufei nodded timidly, her eyes flashed with fear, and asked, "Uncle, you don't hate girls too, do you?" β
"No, it won't." Chen Qing shook his head, a little curious, "Why do you ask that?" β
"Because our girls are always bullied, obviously before the monster comes, everyone is harmonious." Liu Yufei's eyes were gloomy.
Chen Qing: "......"
"My brother doesn't hate women." Chen Qingdao, "But this world is very cruel, if you don't work hard to become stronger, you will be bullied." β
"If I'm strong enough, I can punish the wicked and make this world a better place!" Liu Yufei's little head was a little heavier, and she said very seriously.
Chen Qing smiled, but he didn't deny it: "That's right, if you are strong enough, you can severely punish the wicked." β
After some exchanges, the relationship between the two was not as stiff as before, Liu Yufei let go of her vigilance, and began to warm up, one uncle at a time, which made Chen Qing's head hurt.
"Yufei, you usually just call me brother." Chen Qing corrected that he felt that he was three or four years older than the other party, and it was not reasonable to be called uncle.
"Huh?!"
Liu Yufei was a little at a loss: "Is my brother too intimate?" β
Intimacy?
Have it?
Chen Qing couldn't cry or laugh: "Then my surname is Chen, you call me Brother Chen." β
"Okay." Liu Yufei immediately agreed, "Brother Chen." β
"Hmm."
Chen Qing rubbed her head, and then said, "Do you have a place to live?" β
"Yes." Liu Yufei nodded, looked at Chen Qing's face, her eyes flashed, as if she had made a decision, gritted her teeth and said, "It's just...... The people there are so fierce, not as good as Brother Chen. β
"Really?"
"Well, a lot of girls are locked up by them every day, and they have to be beaten by them."
ββ¦β¦β
Silent.
As soon as these words came out, there was a moment of silence.
Chen Qing looked at her and asked, "Then why can you come out?" β
"Because they know I'm not going to run away." Liu Yufei looked lost, "I've seen it, there are no people around, it's barren, running out is looking for death, those children who are locked up still don't understand the situation." β
Here, it is too close to the Flame Mountain Range to be a passer-by at all.
Chen Qing frowned, a little dissatisfied: "Then why didn't you let me save you earlier?" β
He is not a hard-hearted person, if Liu Yufei had told him earlier, he would definitely help.
"There are a lot of them, and they're powerful." Liu Yufei hurriedly stopped, "Big brother, two months ago, a friend of mine found a lot of helpers and wanted to resist, but everyone died, and the body was still hanging on the roof of the building!" β
Chen Qing was stunned.
It turned out that she didn't want to bother herself.
"And ......" Her gaze wandered, and she suddenly began to slump, as if ashamed.
Chen Qing was puzzled: "What?" β
"At first, I wasn't sure if Big Brother was their man." She plucked up the courage to confess and said apologetically, "I'm sorry big brother, I misunderstood you." β
When they met for the first time, how dare she tell this secret casually, if Chen Qing was in the same group as them, she would die a miserable death.
It was only when Chen Qing showed that she didn't know that she dared to explain with confidence.
"Well, I forgive you...... Okay, it's not early, let's go back and rest. Chen Qing smiled unexpectedly, his eyes flashing with an indescribable meaning.
"Okay."
Liu Yufei got up and waved her hand: "Goodbye, Brother Chen." β
"Goodbye."
β¦β¦
The night was thick as ink, and the waning moon was dim.
After walking about a thousand meters, she returned to the humble house she hated and feared, but had to go back, and when she was near, she could hear many hoarse cries.
"Crunchβ"
Pushing open the dilapidated door, she poked her head and saw that under the withered yellow light, several bare-armed men inside were spitting out fog, shouting around the mahjong table, and there were gambling beads in front of them.
A few people turned their heads and saw that it was Liu Yufei, and it was not surprising that one of the men with a scar on his face ordered: "If you want to starve Lao Tzu to death, go to the kitchen for Lao Tzu to make some food, and let those little children be quiet, it will affect Lao Tzu's mood." β
"Oh."
Liu Yufei was relieved, knowing that she would not be reprimanded today, she hurriedly entered the door, and then when she was about to close the door, the door was firmly held by one hand, like an iron tong, unable to move.
The four people who were playing mahjong had very keen senses, and they quickly reacted and shouted angrily: "Who is it, get out!" β
They immediately made a decision, pulled out the guns pinned to their waists, and aimed their guns at the door, waiting for them.
Liu Yufei, who was at the door, panicked and quickly fled to avoid being accidentally injured and killed.
"Smack!"
The metal hinge connecting the door to the wall collapsed, and the entire door was forcibly pulled out by the hand that suddenly appeared, and then thrown out, directly thrown out dozens of meters away.
Outside the door, a man with a grim gaze came into everyone's field of vision.
"Da Da Da ......"
The muzzle of the gun was constantly blazing, and the bullets were vented like a storm.
However, all the bullets missed, and the man suddenly disappeared without a trace, disappearing into the doorway.
"It's a high-level powerhouse of the Awakening Spirit Realm!" Someone among them immediately shouted, "Don't hide it, just take the real thing!" β
"Boom......"
As soon as the words fell, the light flashed in their hands, and immediately after, four weapons appeared in their hands.
It's all bloody weapons that are difficult for ordinary people to obtain!
Liu Yufei, who was hiding in a corner, looked at the man who suddenly appeared and disappeared suddenly, her body trembled with excitement, her palms covered her mouth, and tears came out of her eyes: "Brother Chen......"
