Chapter 55: The Past

After the woman blocked the fatal blow for Liao Zhicheng, the vitality gradually disappeared, and Wang Botian seemed to see that life was flowing from the woman's body.

Liao Zhicheng was stunned at first in the woman's counterattack just now, he didn't expect the woman to resist, and the next moment, when the ice pick penetrated the woman's body, he understood what the woman had done for him. There is a lot of fear in my heart.

He turned around and saw Su Hanhuan standing behind him, and the initial fear turned into anger, and said angrily: "It's you?"

Su Hanhuan came back to his senses from the manslaughter just now: "That's right, it's me, a beast like you should have died a long time ago." Su Hanhuan clenched his fists.

Xie Panlei also used spiritual power at this time to make himself appear and block in front of Su Hanhuan.

"Icebreaker chop. The first thing Xie Panlei did after he appeared was to put Liao Zhicheng to death first, and he didn't plan to do it, but Su Hanhuan couldn't hold back.

Liao Zhicheng crossed his arms, resisted Xie Panlei's attack with his spiritual power, and violently repelled Su Hanhuan and Xie Panlei with his soaring spiritual power, and immediately escaped underground.

"Xiaotian, you stay here, don't use spiritual power, so that you won't show up, Su Hanhuan and I will come to you later, I think it may be safer for you to stay here than to act with us. ”

"Okay!" Wang Botian also felt that he might be suspected of dragging his feet, so he thought it would be better to stay here.

After Xie Panlei and Su Hanhuan chased them out, Wang Botian didn't know what to do, the woman who fell on the bed was now out of breath, and some blood still flowed down the bed along the animal skin.

The woman was smiling before she died, Wang Botian was a little puzzled, obviously he also saw that the man named Liao Zhicheng was so excessive, why would she block the fatal blow for him at a critical time, what was the purpose of what she said to Liao Zhicheng just now. What does it mean that she loves him in the past?

The blood dripping from the bed unconsciously flowed to Wang Botian's feet, Wang Botian retreated, but there was still a little stick to Wang Botian's shoes, which is not good, if he moves now, although he is invisible, there will still be bloody footprints on the ground. So I still stood here and waited for the bloodstains to dry.

But when Wang Botian waited for the blood to dry, there would still be new blood flowing down the bed, but more blood would get on his shoes, but he couldn't deal with it with his hands, otherwise it would get on his hands again, and the situation would only get worse and worse.

Maybe it can be handled with spiritual power, but then it will make the spell invalid. Just when Wang Botian was troubled, the spiritual power in his body had already begun to operate on his own.

Wang Botian was shocked: "How can this be, I can't control it." ”

Wang Bo Angel didn't want to release his spiritual power, but he had already used his spiritual power and now appeared.

He forcibly wanted to suppress it, but he always felt that his body was about to be blown up by spiritual power, and suddenly the spiritual power disappeared instantly, Wang Botian broke out in a cold sweat, and because when the spiritual power disappeared, the strength of others seemed to disappear suddenly, and his body fell down, and he was busy supporting the ground with both hands. But in this way, his hands were sunk in a pool of blood at his feet.

Then, he felt that the spiritual power was once again working on its own in his body, as if something began to pour into Wang Botian's body along the blood on the ground.

There were more fragmentary images in his mind.

He saw a little girl, eleven or twelve years old, born and moving, if you look closely, isn't it a little bit of the shadow of the woman who died just now.

The girl was taking the wild vegetables she had dug up from the mountains to buy them at the market, and she carried two baskets of wild vegetables on her back, and at last she exchanged them for seven taels of beast meat. She took the meat home and gave it to her mother to make soup for her father, who had broken his leg from a wild boar while hunting.

She was happy because she finally felt like she was using something. Since she was a child, her parents did not like her very much, because she was a girl and could not take on too much labor for the family.

Her ankles and calves were all scratched by thorns when she went up the mountain to pick wild vegetables. But she couldn't tell her mother, because saying it would only get her mother's words: "Squeamish." ”

At night, there was a gentle knock on the window of their house, and the girl got up and sneaked out.

"Why are you here?" the girl asked cautiously.

"I saw you in the bazaar today, and I saw that you had a wound on your foot, so I came to get you medicine. At this time, Wang Botian saw the man in the picture clearly, and sure enough, it was Liao Zhicheng, Liao Zhicheng at that time looked fifteen or sixteen years old, with clear eyebrows and beautiful eyes.

The girl sat on the stone in the doorway and stretched out her mud-stained feet to the man, who sighed on the girl's feet and wiped the mud stains around the wound.

"Where did your medicine come from?" the girl asked the man.

"You don't care about it, come on, you can bear with this little pain. With that, the man took the blade of grass in his mouth, chewed it, spit it out, and gently applied it to the girl's wound.

"Wouldn't it be stealing again, wasn't it bad enough to be beaten last time you stole their herbs?" the girl was a little disgusted.

"I am also willing to be beaten for you, the person in our tribe who takes care of the herbs has a bad eye, and it is dark tonight, so I am sure he doesn't see me. By the way, is your father feeling better?" After applying the herbs, Liao Zhicheng found some moist soil from the ground and covered the wound, "This should be fine." ”

"My father he ...... He may not even be able to stand up again. "The girl said it a little bit.

"Don't worry, he's going to get better. The man comforted.

Suddenly, there was some noise in the house, and the girl said to Liao Zhicheng: "You go quickly, my mother is up, don't let him see you." ”

"Then take care. Then he disappeared into the night.

"Squeak-" The door opened, and the girl's mother came out, "why don't you sleep yet, you're still outside, don't you want to steal it tomorrow morning, don't you get up to work, look at your father now, it's not you working, what are you waiting for!"

"Bang-" There was a slamming sound behind him.

The girl still got up early in the morning, went to the surrounding mountains to dig wild vegetables, sold them at noon, and went home in the evening to give the goods to her mother.

The boy also came to treat the girl's wounds at night, and Wang Botian could even experience the happiness of the girl every time she saw the boy.

Another image came to mind, someone came to the girl's house and told the girl's parents that because the girl's father could no longer hunt, but the tribe still had to provide food for the family, they wanted to sell the girl to other tribes as slaves.

When leaving, the leader also touched the girl's hair, looking reluctant.

The mother told the girl about the chief's advice. The girl did not comply, so her mother began to do ideological work for her.

"Child, you must know that our tribe is only a small tribe, and we must be protected by a larger tribe in order to develop in the long run. Your father can't stand up now, he can't do anything for the tribe, and if you don't go, then our family will be kicked out of the tribe. Can you just bear to watch your father with a broken leg end up begging in the street and starving to death?" the woman began to enlighten the girl.

"I don't go, I go and I can't come back, I heard that some tribes in slaves are cheap, the master to them come and go, sometimes the winter food is not enough, will use slaves to make their winter food. The girl sat on the bed and buried her whole head in her knees.

"But there are slaves who serve their masters well, and they will not treat them badly, and may eat much better than your father and me. ”

"No, I can't go, I don't want to be someone else's slave, I should have my freedom. I can go up the mountain every day and exchange wild vegetables for food, Mom, please, I don't want to go. The girl stubbornly retorted.

The woman punched the girl twice on the back: "Why did I give birth to such an unfilial daughter as you, if I gave birth to a son, then there would be such a thing, God, why don't you open your eyes, aren't you going to kill our little couple!"

The girl cried, but there was nothing she could do, and if she didn't go, then their house would really be over.

The girl made a sachet made of the bones of the beast, and the character Liao was engraved on the bone, and a thin thread was used to thread it.

One night, Liao Zhicheng came to see the girl again, Liao Zhicheng touched the girl's face, and said, "Dangdangdang, what do you see I brought you?" He brought a piece of roasted meat from behind, "I went up the mountain today to hunt a hare, and as soon as it was roasted, I brought it to you, and it was still hot! Eat quickly, look at you, you are as thin as a firewood stick." ”

The girl takes a piece of meat with her small mouth and eats it in your mouth.

"If you eat meat, you eat meat, why do you still cry? It's not delicious?" Liao Zhicheng was very strange.

The girl chewed the meat in her mouth and shed tears: "Delicious, delicious, delicious...... Eat, it's the best I've ever tasted. ”

The girl handed the meat to the man again: "You eat it too, I can't eat so much personally." ”

Liao Zhicheng sneered: "Okay, I'll eat too." The man also took a bite of the meat, and said, "Hey, it's not delicious, you see I'm careless, and I didn't put salt in the barbecue." As he spoke, he took out a piece of cloth from his body, spread it out, pinched a handful of salt grains with three fingers, and sprinkled it on top of the roasted meat.

"I have something for you too. As he spoke, he took out a small bone from his body, "I hollowed out the bone, and added some petals to it that I picked when I went up the mountain, and it will smell a little when I wear it." In order to maintain the aroma, the spices inside need to be changed frequently. ”

"Okay, if it doesn't smell good in the future, I'll give it to you, and you can pick the flowers and give me the spices." ”

"Well, as long as I have the opportunity in the future, I will. ”

Liao Zhicheng didn't hear the girl's voiceover, happily took the bone, and touched the Liao character on the bone with his index finger.

"I didn't expect you to be able to write, and your writing is so beautiful. Liao Zhicheng praised.

"I can't write, I'll write your name. The girl shook her head.

"Okay, you dead girl, you actually ran out in the middle of the night to have a tryst with someone, it's really shameful. Suddenly, a discordant sound broke the silence of the night.

"My mom is here, you go quickly. The girl said eagerly.

"Dead boy, you want to go, see that I don't break your legs. The woman picked up a wooden stick and swung it to beat Liao Zhicheng, and the girl stopped her waist and hugged her mother.

"You go. ”

Liao Zhicheng held the bones tightly in his palm and disappeared into the night.

"Okay, you dead girl, I'll tell you why you don't want to be a slave, it turns out that you have a good relationship, I tell you, this time you have to go, you have to go, you have to go. ”

Then the girl was tied up by her mother and left in her room.
