Chapter 176: The Old Man's Sadness

"You broke the outer barrier?" The old man asked.

Bai Feifei shook his head: "No!" The enchantment is fine! ”

The old man nodded: "That enchantment is mainly to resist the passage of demons with a cold aura on their bodies. Since you passed through the barrier unscathed, you must not be a demon. ”

Belch? Is that so?

Bai Feifei still felt that something was wrong.

"Grandpa, why did you misunderstand that I was a demon before? I've seen a lot of demons, and I've killed a lot. However, they are all extremely ugly. I don't think I'm ugly, my grandfather used to treat me as a demon, and I still wondered! ”

Bai Feifei said the doubts in his heart.

When the old man heard this, his face suddenly became a little ugly, and he shut up.

"What's wrong? Grandpa? Am I saying something wrong? Bai Feifei sensed that something was wrong and immediately asked.

The old man waved his hand and did not speak. At this time, the bowl of wild vegetable porridge in his hand was already a little cold. He lowered his head, drank the porridge silently, and then stacked the empty bowls that Bai Feifei had drunk on, simply washed them with the water from the hot jug in front of the stove, and then put them aside.

Bai Feifei stared at the old man's movements the whole time and did not speak. She went back and forth in her mind about the question she had just asked, and she didn't realize which sentence was wrong. Could it be that he is actually not beautiful, but ugly?

Bai Feifei took a closer look at the ice blue wings behind him, it was clearly beautiful! What's ugly? Since it's not that I'm ugly, could it be that there are people in the demon clan who aren't ugly?

Thinking about the demons he encountered again, Bai Feifei instantly denied his guess. In the demon clan, I haven't seen anyone who looks normal at all! All of them are extremely ugly, which makes people look disgusting!

After the old man had washed and put the two empty bowls away, he went to the plank bed and began to spread the quilt. Shaking the patched quilt, the old man was about to seal the fire in the stove, but he suddenly remembered that there was a butterfly like Bai Feifei in the cabin, and he couldn't help but turn around to look at her.

"Are you still leaving at night?" The old man asked.

"I ......" Bai Feifei looked at the dark sky outside, and then looked at the cabin that was simple but felt very warm for no reason, and suddenly felt a little reluctant to leave.

"I'd like to stay here for one night." Bai Feifei said cheekily.

Although he had been wandering around the Flood Desolate Continent for several days, every time night fell, Bai Feifei just found a random place to settle down, but this time was different! There were warm cabins, and she didn't want to be alone in the wilderness anymore, blowing the cold wind.

Bai Feifei looked at the plank bed, although the plank bed looked very attractive, she naturally wouldn't squeeze it with the old man. Even though she is just a butterfly now and doesn't occupy much space, how strange it feels to be crammed into the same bed with the old man.

Bai Feifei's eyes wandered, saw the firewood pile by the stove, and decided to spend the night on the firewood pile.

"Grandpa, I'll sleep there!" Bai Feifei's little paw pointed at the pyre and arranged a place for himself.

The old man looked at the pyre and nodded.

He didn't reject Bai Feifei, and naturally he didn't mind the other party staying in his cabin for one night.

After sealing the fire with a flat stone, the old man lay down on the bed with his clothes, and put the patched quilt on his body, ready to sleep.

The white fly landed on the pyre, but he couldn't sleep with excitement.

The old man was drowsy, and suddenly heard Bai Feifei's question: "Grandpa, do you live alone in this neighborhood?" ”

"There were two more nearby

households. However, a few years ago, a small team of demons launched an attack on the outer barrier. The two families were scared and moved out early. I'm a bad old man here. The old man's drowsiness was completely driven away, and he replied directly.

"Grandpa, you're the only one left here now, aren't you afraid?" Bai Feifei asked again.

"I'm a bad old man, and I'm about to be buried in the ground. What is there to be afraid of. If the demons dare to come, it's time to fight with them! Speaking of the last sentence, the old man's emotions seemed to be a little excited, as if he was forcibly holding back something.

"But, old man. Aren't you alone? Why don't you move out with those two families? The demons are very powerful. I see you as just an ordinary person. Can't fight them. Bai Feifei didn't hear the strangeness in the old man's words, he only thought that the old man was stubbornly living alone in the cabin because he was not afraid. But if you live alone for a long time, you will always be lonely, right? There is no one to talk to him, how lonely it is!

There was a long silence.

Just when Bai Feifei thought that the old man was already asleep, the other party suddenly spoke: "Yes, the power of the demon clan is indeed not something that ordinary people like us can defeat." However, I once slain a demon. ”

The old man said this, and suddenly said no more.

But Bai Feifei was aroused by curiosity.

The old man once killed a demon?

The power of the demons, she has been taught. Even the most ordinary demons, their strength is extremely close to the first level of the condensation stage among the monks, the old man is clearly an ordinary person, how did he kill the powerful demons?

"Are you curious about how I, an ordinary person, killed the demons?" The old man was silent for a while, and then suddenly asked.

Bai Feifei let out an "um" sound.

She was curious.

"Because, the demon I killed was my poor grandson, who was only eight years old!"

When the old man said a word, Bai Feifei jumped up from the firewood pile in shock, and exclaimed even more in his mouth: "How come?!" ”

Her heart suddenly turned upside down, and her eyes stared at the old man lying on the wooden bed, no matter how much she wanted to break her head, she couldn't think of such earth-shattering words, which came from the mouth of such a weak old man.

Could it be that this old man is a demon?

However, it doesn't look like it! How can the demon patriarch look like a human? She has been out for so long, and she has never seen a demon like a normal person.

Those demons are either human-headed and beast-headed, or beast-headed and human-human. Could it be that there is really a kind of demon she has never seen before, who looks like a human?

At this moment, Bai Feifei was imagining. She looked at the old man on the plank bed in disbelief, and a slight strangeness welled up in her heart.

If this old man is really a demon, will she do it, or will she do it, or will she do it?

Bai Feifei's expression gradually became serious, if the old man was really a demon, she would definitely do it! Even if this demon clan looked no different from ordinary people, she couldn't relax her mind. The brutality of the demons, she has come all the way, and she has completely experienced it. She can't easily let the other party go just because the old man invited her to a meal. No matter how bad it is, for the sake of the other party not being evil for the time being, you have to think of ways to imprison the other party!

Bai Feifei, who was thinking about how to deal with this situation, didn't notice that the old man on the wooden bed had a face covered with tears, and tears were silently wetting the pillow.

"How could it not!" After being silent for a long time, the old man suddenly spoke again, "My grandson is only eight years old, and he doesn't know how to distinguish between good and evil.

It was in this enchantment that he was bewitched by the demons outside and stepped out."

The old man seemed to choke up.

With the old man's telling, Bai Feifei had already thrown out the previous messy thoughts. As the old man said the last sentence, her heart suddenly tightened, and she didn't even know when she couldn't hold her breath. She could almost imagine what might happen next.

Could it be that the eight-year-old grandson of the old grandfather

The picture in his mind that was about to come out was too bloody and cruel, and Bai Feifei didn't dare to think about it anymore.

The whole cabin could be heard of pins dropping, and the silence was suffocating.

However, the old man was obviously unwilling to remain silent any longer, and the words that came out of his mouth again were particularly sad and desolate: "My grandson, who was only half of his body outside the barrier, was discovered by me, and then pulled him back. In the blink of an eye, he was completely infected by the cold aura of the demon race! The one I got back by luck is no longer my grandchild......"

The old man couldn't stop crying.

Bai Feifei also felt sad.

The old man's words reminded her of the Bai Ming she had met in the burial hall of the ancient ruins. That Bai Tianming, apparently in the same condition as the old man's grandson, was completely transformed into a monster after being infected by demonic energy, and even his divine sense was destroyed!

Demon cultivation is still so bad, not to mention an ordinary eight-year-old child!

It was only at this moment that Bai Feifei completely understood why the old man, an ordinary person, was able to kill a demon clan. Where is the demon clan he killed, it is clearly the blood of his closest relatives!

I don't know when, Bai Feifei's eyes were already moist.

"Grandpa, you, mourn!" Bai Feifei really didn't know what words he could say to comfort the other party at this moment, and after a long time, he could only think of these two words. Except for these two words, she really didn't know what to say again.

After letting the tears flow for a long time, the old man finally wiped his tears with his sleeve: "Don't say it, don't say it." More than ten years have passed since this incident, and if my grandson is still here, he will be a young man. I only hate that the demon clan is too mad, and even my eight-year-old grandson refuses to let go. ”

The old man's slightly nasal words came to Bai Feifei's ears: "Sleep." I think you're probably going to have to go tomorrow, right? ”

Bai Feifei nodded indiscriminately and hummed lightly. However, for half the night, she tossed and turned, unable to sleep, and her mind would always think uncontrollably about the little child, thinking of the old man's grandson just gone, how he had survived these days alone; Thinking about the demon race now that it is raging, how should the other creatures on those continents inhabit; Thinking of her master, Bai Xiaoyu, she didn't know if she had broken through the knot; Thinking about her big brother in the North Darkness Han again, how is he doing in the sect now; Thinking about myself, where should I go from here......

Many distracting thoughts came one after another, and in the second half of the night, Bai Feifei fell asleep groggily.

Early the next morning, Bai Feifei woke up. To be precise, she was awakened by the smell of rice, and she rubbed her eyes a little confused, a little confused.

Looking at the old man who was adding firewood to the stove, Bai Feifei realized that he slept at the old man's house last night.

"Are you awake?" Looking at Bai Feifei, who was swaying and flying up, the old man greeted with a slight smile, "The vegetable porridge will be ready soon." We'll eat after you're refreshed. ”

"Oh!" Bai Feifei nodded ignorantly.

After the porridge was cooked and the two of them finished eating and cleaning up, Bai Feifei thanked the old man for his hospitality and planned to leave. When she flew to the door, she suddenly stopped. He turned his head and asked, "Grandpa, why don't you leave with me!" I'll take you to live in a crowded place! 2k reading network
