Nangong Jingchen just stood in place and watched Shen Tangqiao deal with those prey step by step, and at this time, he suddenly began to face this young man.

The young man in front of him who was serious about dealing with slipping away looked like he was only seventeen or eighteen years old at most, but his behavior revealed that he thought differently from his peers.

"How old are you now?" In the end, Nangong Jingchen still couldn't hold back, and directly asked the question he had always wanted to know in his heart.

Shen Tangqiao, who was originally dealing with the prey in his hand, subconsciously paused, and randomly continued to deal with the prey in his hand, until the prey in his hand was processed, and then he opened his mouth to answer the question that Nangong Jingchen asked himself just now.

"I'm fifteen."

Nangong Jingchen subconsciously frowned when he heard Shen Tangqiao's answer, can he already be on his own at the age of fifteen?

Thinking back to when he was fifteen years old, he was still learning some things from Taifu that he should learn, such as dealing with prey hunting, he didn't know how to do it at all, but the young man in front of him was really very proficient, and his proficiency made people feel distressed.

"What about your parents? Why haven't I heard you mention it all this time? ”

I don't know if Nangong Jingchen's question just hit the most vulnerable side of Shen Tangqiao's heart, he was originally bowing his head to deal with his prey, but he instantly squatted in place and didn't move.

A few whining roars came out of his throat from time to time, as if he was telling the grievances in his heart, he had never seen Nangong Jingchen like Shen Tangqiao, and he was a little anxious in an instant.

"What's wrong with you? If you can't say it, don't say it, I'm sorry for mentioning your sadness. ”

Squatted down and reached out to touch the head of the fifteen-year-old child in front of him, and comforted him with a little panic.

In fact, as early as the time between the two of them, Nangong Jingchen subconsciously treated the young man in front of him as his younger brother, so when he saw him like this, he couldn't help but feel very uncomfortable.

"They died when I was very young, and they were bitten alive by tigers when I went up to hunt in the mountains, and they were ...... to protect me."

I don't know if Nangong Jingchen's comfort played a role, the young man who was still crying in a low voice gradually spoke about his parents.

Nangong Jingchen flashed one thought after another in his mind, but he never thought that his parents would die like this, and he didn't know what to say in an instant.

"Don't think about it, your parents will be very happy in heaven when they see that you are doing well now, don't you see that you are living a good life now?"

At this moment, Nangong Jingchen is gentle as if he is not himself, such a scene, if he is seen by Gu Qingshang in the prince's mansion, it is estimated that he will feel that the prince has been given a bag, because the appearance of the prince Nangong Jingchen comforting Shen Tangqiao is really too gentle!

"Thank you, Your Highness." For a long time, Shen Tangqiao, who had been immersed in his own sad world, suddenly looked up at Nangong Jingchen and said such a sentence.

"It's okay, aren't we brothers now? You can treat me like an older brother, after all, we're brothers now, aren't we? ”

In fact, the reason why Nangong Jingchen said this sentence was that he didn't want Shen Tangqiao to be too angry with him, because now he has aroused the suspicion of the village chief, whether he can continue to survive in the future, in this village, it depends on their luck, after all, the injuries on his body have not been completely healed.

"Hmm." Shen Tangqiao stretched out his hand to wipe away his tears, nodded heavily at Nangong Jingchen, and then began to continue to deal with the prey in his hand.

After a while, the original dirty prey was already disposed of by the Shentang Bridge and hung under the eaves to dry, and Nangong Jingchen on the side couldn't help but be a little surprised when he looked at his sloppy hand speed.

The two of them picked some meat from the prey to cook, and after solving the food and clothing of the two, they went to bed directly, because Shen Tangqiao would take these prey to the town to sell them for money early tomorrow morning, and by the way, he would find out some news in the palace.

At the same time, after the village chief returned home with a ashamed old face, he turned around and looked at his son, Da Zhuang carried a bag of prey, and followed him back, subconsciously frowning.

"Da Zhuang, did you encounter anything wrong when you went up the mountain to hunt today? That Chen Qiao, did you do anything bad to you? ”

Although the village chief has now dispelled his suspicions about Shentangqiao in his heart, he still can't help but persuade his son to ask about the specific situation today.

"Dad, what stupid are you talking about? If it weren't for Brother Chen Qiao's help today, maybe I wouldn't be able to come back! And he was also very generous with giving his son so much prey, how can you say such a thing? ”

Da Zhuang put aside the prey he was carrying, and directly talked to his village chief father with a disapproving face, because he didn't know what happened specifically, and he didn't know why his father suddenly appeared at Brother Chen Qiao's house.

"It's not that Dad is talking stupidly, it's because someone in the village came to report Chen Qiao's brother to Dad today, saying that he beat the women in the village, and that the purpose of their brothers coming to our village is not simple, and Dad must be asking what the situation is as the village head."

The village chief looked at his son's resolute attitude, and did not hide anything from his son, so he directly told his son Da Zhuang about the women who complained to him today.

"Dad, no, how many of the words that my son said about the women in your village are true, and how many of them can be listened to, you don't want to think about it, what if they are just making up stories?"

Because he received the favor of Shen Tangqiao when he was hunting, the junior college was very oriented to him anyway, so he didn't believe in himself at all, and these things he told him were the truth.

"What you said is not unreasonable, but they were indeed beaten, and the specific reason is that Dad doesn't know why, wait until tomorrow to fall at the door and ask, alas, it's not early, you hurry up to eat, clean up and go to rest after eating."

After saying this, the village chief left without twisting his head, and went back to his room to think about today's events carefully, because he always felt that this matter was not simple at all.

Da Zhuang stood there and looked at the back of his village chief's father leaving, subconsciously frowned, but he didn't say anything more, and went directly outside to get a basin of water for himself, washed his hands and face, and then went to the kitchen to serve food.

After eating, he went straight to bed to rest, because Brother Chen Qiao said that he would take himself to the town to sell these prey tomorrow, so he must be mentally recuperated, otherwise how can these prey be sold tomorrow?

Da Zhuang thought like this, and then slowly fell asleep
