Barren Encounter Chapter 1: The World of Little Four (1)

Next Chapter

In the middle of the night, Xiao Si was sleeping in a daze and heard the sound of rustling outside his bedroom. She sat up vigilantly and listened carefully to the sounds downstairs, but she had no intention of going to see what was going on. Because she is in a barren area that doesn't care about the five major districts, the law and order are chaotic, thieves are rampant, and there are often some people who claim to be security teams to collect any taxes and fees, so Xiao Si just wants to wait for these people to go down to see what is going on. She remembered what her dead grandfather used to say, as long as people live, there will be everything, so don't care what those people do, protecting your own life is the most important thing.

Xiao Si waited for a long time with a tense body, but she only heard some slight noises, she wondered why the robbers this time didn't smash and loot like those people before. After waiting for another five minutes and making sure that there was no sound downstairs, Xiao Si gently got off the bed to the ground, stood on tiptoe and walked slowly to the bedroom door. Xiao Si slowly turned the doorknob without making any noise, because she was not sure if the people had already left. opened the door a crack, just stuck his head out of the door, and listened carefully for a while, after making sure that there was really no sound, Xiao Si breathed a sigh of relief. She let out a long breath and prepared to go downstairs to see what those people were doing downstairs.

Xiao Si muttered in his heart while going downstairs, estimating that the medicines he had managed to get downstairs had been robbed, and he would be destitute again during this time. Thinking that he was going to gnaw on white steamed buns again, Xiao Si really hated those robbers to death, but he was a powerless girl, and his grandfather didn't know why, so he told himself before he died that even if he starved to death, he couldn't step into the five administrative regions. Xiao Si didn't dare to disobey his grandfather's words, so he could only live a difficult life in this barren area.

Thinking of this, Xiao Si couldn't help but sigh, but what followed Xiao Si's sigh was a weak moan. When Xiao Si heard this voice, he only felt that his whole body was numb, and he almost immediately stood in place and didn't dare to move. Xiao Si thought that he would be threatened with a knife or something, but after standing for a while, nothing happened. Xiao Si mustered up his courage, trembled and reached out to turn on a wall lamp beside him, and in the next second he turned on the wall lamp, a more terrifying picture appeared in front of Xiao Si's eyes. A man with almost his upper body soaked in blood was lying prone next to the medicine shelf in his home, and there was already a large pool of blood under him. Obviously, this person just wanted to get some medicine for himself, but because of his serious injuries, he fainted before he could get medicine for himself.

Xiao Si stood there staring at the man for a long time, making sure that he really wouldn't attack him, and then slowly moved to his side. Xiao Si squatted down and stretched out a finger to probe the bottom of the person's nose, wondering if the person was still alive, but just as Xiao Si put his finger close to the man, the man suddenly moved without warning, and the action was so fast that Xiao Si didn't have time to react.

"Who are you?" The man tightly clamped Xiao Si's wrist with his bloodstained hand, his eyes were full of vigilance, and his whole body was instantly filled with a murderous aura, as if the other party's answer was not what he wanted, he would kill the other party immediately.

Xiao Si was so frightened by that person's sudden movement that he sat on the ground, staring at the person in front of him with frightened eyes, and trembled for a long time before he reluctantly spoke, "Xiaosi, Xiao Si, this, this, this is my home,"

The man let go of Xiao Si's wrist, and the whole person collapsed to the ground again, and the hand that was originally holding Xiao Si's wrist pressed to his wound.

Xiao Si found that it might be because the action just now had caused the wound, and the position of the abdomen that the person covered with his hand was bleeding constantly. Looking up again, Xiao Si saw a pale and bloodless face, frowning because of the pain.

"You're seriously injured," the doctor's nature made Xiao Si subconsciously want to reach out to help him check the wound, but when his fingers just touched the man's hand covering the wound, the man shouted with almost all his strength, "Don't touch me!" Get away from me! ”

Xiao Si frowned, it was the first time she had seen this kind of person, she was already injured and dying, but she still wanted to keep others away from her, is this the rhythm of wanting to commit suicide? Xiao Si thinks that she is not a noble person, in such a chaotic place, she doesn't want to cause trouble for herself, and she doesn't know who this person is in front of her, why she was injured, maybe she saved a very vicious person. But grandpa also said that there is no kind of doctor, no matter who is injured, he must be treated, even if he is a wicked person, someone will naturally punish him, this is not a doctor's responsibility.

Grandpa's words are still in his ears, and Xiao Si doesn't dare to disobey him, but although the person in front of him is already angry, he just gives people a feeling that no one is close to him, which makes Xiao Si feel disgusted. After hesitating for a moment, Xiao Si decided to save him first, and if he was really a bad person, then he would give him another shot of poison at that time, so that his life would be worse than death.

"If you don't have another operation, you'll die," Xiao Si calmed down, and the tone of his voice was no longer the trembling of the previous panic, it was exactly the tone of a doctor when he spoke to a patient.

The man reluctantly opened his eyes and looked at the girl kneeling in front of him, with a strong and calm look, "How can I, how do I know, you won't, kill me when you have surgery, when you do surgery?" ”

Xiao Si said very calmly, "You can choose to believe me and bet that fifty percent chance that I won't kill you, or you can choose not to believe me and wait for one hundred percent death here, you choose,"

As he spoke, Xiao Si also pointed to the wound where the person was still bleeding, "According to the amount of bleeding like you, you will definitely die in a while, you can decide for yourself,"

After speaking, Xiao Si stood up and looked down at the dying man in front of him.

The man snorted coldly, he didn't expect that one day his life would be in the hands of a little girl. However, the pain of the wound and the massive loss of blood had blurred his consciousness, which made him realize that this girl was right, and if he continued like this, he would only die. It seems that he has no choice, he is all dead, and he can only gamble once.

"What do you want?" The man struggled to open his eyes and stared sideways at the girl.
