A torrential rain slowed down, dispelling the summer heat.

The drizzle continued until dusk.

Li Xiao sat in front of the window, listening to the drizzle, very bored. A book has been flipped over by her no less than three times, and a heart just can't be still.

Li Xiao occasionally looked up and saw Dong Lian coming over in a hurry. He put down the book in his hand, got up and went to the door.

"What's wrong?" ”

"County Lord!" Dong Lian stood in front of Li Xiao and said in a low voice: "Please go to the front yard with your humble position!" ”

His face was anxious, and he must have encountered something urgent.

Li Xiao thought about it slightly, and then said, "Okay!" ”

When she stepped out, Dong Lian had already held up an umbrella for her.

"What's going on?" Seeing that there was no one around, Li Xiao asked.

"Far away!"

Dong Lian's answer made Li Xiao stunned, and his footsteps stopped involuntarily.

"Who?" She seemed a little incredulous, and after a moment of dazedness, she asked again: "Is it really Yuan'er?" ”

"Yes!" Dong Lian nodded.

Hearing Dong Lian's affirmative answer, Li Xiao hurriedly took another step, faster than Fang Cai.

Dong Lian told Li Xiao how he found Yuan'er and what he could see.

As he spoke, when he finished speaking, they had already reached the door where Yuan'er was.

This was the residence of the guards, and it was their time on duty, so there was only one person in the house.

At this moment, he was curled up with a thinner body, leaning against the wall and shivering.

Hearing footsteps outside the door, his eyes quickly tightened with a layer of guard. stared at the direction of the door, and the shaking of his body was even worse unconsciously.

The door was pushed open.

It's Li Xiao!

Seeing that it was Li Xiao, he strode forward and knelt down in front of Li Xiao.

cried and begged: "The county lord save me!" ”

The child in front of him, dressed in rags, is still the same as when he first saw him, but the confidence and firmness in his eyes have turned into fear!

"Hurry up!" When Li Xiao stretched out his hand to help him up, he found that the ragged clothes on the child's body were already soaked and cold.

Li Xiao paused, and ordered: "Dong Lian, you take him to take a hot bath and change his clothes first." ”

"Yes!"

"Also, have some food in the kitchen come over!" Li Xiao's gaze returned to Yuan'er's body, "Let's go first, I'll come back when I have something to say!" ”

Yuan'er, who had washed up, came back with Dong Lian. As soon as he saw the food on the table, he pounced on it and devoured it.

It looks like I've been hungry for a long time.

A large bowl full of food was eaten by him in an instant, and the speed was as fast as a storm.

After he swallowed the food in his mouth, Li Xiao spoke: "How do you know my identity?" ”

"On the street that day, I heard the maid next to you call you so!" Yuan'er lowered her head slightly, like a child who had done something wrong.

"Think I can save you?" Li Xiao asked again.

"Hmm!" Yuan'er nodded and replied. He was very excited, and his expression was even more nervous, "I know that the county lord is a good person!" ”

"Where have you been these days?" Li Xiao asked again.

"I first ran out of the city, hid for a few days, and then thought of coming to the county lord. But he didn't dare to blindly come to the door, so he could only hide nearby, until he saw him coming back from outside! As he spoke, he stretched out his hand to Dong Lian.

Li Xiao nodded, and after a slight pause, he blurted out a sentence, and he was frightened and stunned!
