Compared to other buildings, Nie Yan's former residence is unexpectedly well preserved.

It's just that more than ten years have passed, and it is inevitable that it is dusty, weeds and vines are intertwined, and there is a sense of decay.

Nie Yan stood in front of the door, a little in a trance.

It seems that after all these years, I can still see my parents smiling in front of the door.

I wanted to push the door in, but I was a little timid.

Unconsciously, he stood at this door for half an hour.

It was at this time that a 'poof' laugh broke Nie Yan's contemplation.

Nie Yan turned his head suddenly, he didn't expect that in such a remote place, there were still people left.

"Who is it?" Nie Yan asked sharply.

But he did not hear an answer, but heard the footsteps of 'Si Si Soso' from a ruined building to the east.

'Is it good to stay in the wilderness?' What's more, this town was destroyed overnight, there are many folk legends, not to mention ordinary people, even adult men with martial arts dare not stay, listening to the voice is clearly immature and young, how can it appear here? I'm going to take a look. ’

With such thoughts, Nie Yan turned around and chased.

Unexpectedly, the owner of the voice seemed to be very familiar with this town, even if Nie Yan was very fast, but when he was about to approach several times, he ran away.

Only a small, thin figure in dirty clothes could only be seen in the distance.

This provoked Nie Yan a little annoyed, he has been practicing in the small Taoist world for more than ten years, and he has always been praised as a genius, this is not only a technique, but even the martial arts in the world are also good, and he has also dabbled in light skills, and he was escaped by this little beggar-like character, what is this?

Thinking like this, Nie Yan refused to give up.

chased this figure all the way, circled around the town twice, until he reached the temple of the Heavenly Maiden, the kid couldn't run anymore, and fell to the ground, and Nie Yan dodged and grabbed him in his hand, and with a force, he turned his body, but what caught his eye was a dirty little face.

I don't know if it's because of malnutrition, this face looks a little thin, and because of the dust, I can't see the original face clearly.

There is only a pair of big eyes, the eyes are smart, the eyelashes are very long, the eyes are dark, and the water is smart.

"Who are you? Why here? Nie Yan looked a little dazed, and when he came back to his senses, he couldn't help but feel a little hot on his face.

Although the other party is just a thin beggar, it is too much to make a mistake by himself.

He let go of his hand, in fact, the moment he grabbed the other party, Nie Yan already felt that the other party was not a ghost, nor a demon, but a real flesh-and-blood person.

That's why I feel like I'm a little too much.

The little beggar didn't answer Nie Yan's question directly, but rubbed his shoulder that was grabbed by Nie Yan just now with a wrinkled face, and after humming for a long time, he pointed at Nie Yan and said, "You are so unreasonable, I just laughed at you, you chased me for half an hour." I'm just a beggar, and I don't have anything for you to rob, this is my house, you can go quickly. ”

"This is your home?" was accused by the little beggar, Nie Yan was speechless, he was not a person who was too good at words, not to mention that this time he made it himself.

I just heard that the little beggar actually took this place as my home, and I couldn't help but feel strange, and then I thought of a question, and couldn't help but ask again: "Why are you laughing at me?" ”

"Haha." Speaking of this, as if it touched the little beggar's laughter, he couldn't help but laugh again.

The morning sun only becomes brilliant at this time, but it is not hot, but has a warm taste.

The breeze passed, under the light sun, the little beggar's smile, a pair of big eyes like a crooked crescent, although the face could not be seen clearly, but it was very infectious, like a spring with a hundred flowers in full bloom, and like the sun in the hot summer, it could not be ignored, and the smile entered the hearts of the people, so that Nie Yan was also stunned and smiled slightly, and instantly his heart was as soft as autumn water.

I felt a little more pity for this little beggar.

sighed If he is not a little beggar, but a child of a big family, with this smile, I am afraid that he is also a beautiful son in the world, and his fate is really elusive.

Unexpectedly, the little beggar looked at Nie Yan and smiled, but said: "You are so strange, I am obviously laughing at you, what are you laughing at?" ”

"Then what the hell are you laughing at me?" Nie Yan responded lightly, since he is not a first-class demon, Nie Yan has no hostility, and these days he is always alone and on a lonely journey, it is not bad to say a few words to this interesting little beggar.

"Laugh at you like a stupid goose, standing in front of that door for so long, like a timid thief." As the little beggar spoke, his big smart eyes looked Nie Yan up and down, and then he turned around a few times, looking extremely clever.

This made Nie Yan look funny: "I'm like a thief? Pull it out and ask someone, they must think you're a thief, right? ”

"You look down on people, you deceive me as a beggar, and call me a thief." Maybe it was Nie Yan's words that stimulated this little beggar, he shouted unconvinced, and his thin little face pouted, which was so cute.

Nie Yan didn't speak, he got along with his master on the mountain all the year round, and he really didn't know how to communicate with people.

When the little beggar saw Nie Yan's stunned appearance, he couldn't help but stomp his feet and said, "You are so rude, I won't tell you more, I'll leave." ”

As he spoke, he turned around and walked away as quickly as a little rabbit.

Nie Yan originally wanted to ask again why he lived in this long-abandoned town, but the little beggar walked too fast, but he didn't have time to ask.

Just looking at the back of this little beggar, I couldn't help but sigh in my heart, this world is not peaceful, and I pity such a smart child, and I can't run for a good future, and I don't know what kind of disaster his parents have encountered.

Thinking about it, he remembered his previous weakness, and couldn't help but take out a money bag from his arms.

There was only a pitiful amount of silver in it, but Nie Yan still took out a small part of it and put it in his arms, leaving most of it, hanging in a conspicuous place on a low tree not far away.

I didn't know if the little beggar was literate, but he picked up a branch and left a message on the ground: 'There is not much money, I apologize slightly.' Nie Yan'

After writing this, Nie Yan turned around and walked towards the outside of the town.

He didn't know why he left his name, but he always remembered the little beggar's smile in his heart, as if the two were not strangers.

I don't want to go to the old house.

People have gone, no matter how much the house holds, it is just a house, and the parents and brothers will not come back.

I came to Xiaolong Town just to fulfill another wish.

Thinking like this, the faster Nie Yan's steps were, and it was only a short time before he was outside the town.

He entered through the former south gate, and when he came out, he arrived at the north gate, which was once the last place where his mother escaped with her arms, and it was also the place where his parents were buried.

Just when he walked here, a sadness surrounded him, as if he could still see the quiet moonlight in the sky that night when his mother hugged him under the tree.

But when he walked out of the door, Nie Yan couldn't help but be stunned.

In my memory, out of this north gate was a small patch of sparse woods and meadows, but now, this sparse woods have disappeared a little bit, but the meadow is completely gone, and has become a few acres of crooked fields of cultivation.

It is the May of the world.

Although the crops in the field are not abundant, they are also lush, such as the vine armor at the edge of the field, which already has small cucumbers hanging fruit, and it is obvious that they are very well cared for.

"What is this?" Nie Yan's heart was full of doubts, and he glanced in the direction of the south uneasily, the tree that his mother once leaned on was still there, and a tomb could be faintly seen under the tree, so he was slightly relieved in his heart, and then walked towards that side.

As for this field, Nie Yan is no longer curious, remembering that the little beggar before said that this is his family, I'm afraid this field is also his family?

It's just that if you want to go to the woods over there, you have to pass through these fields.

Thinking that it was not easy for them to cultivate, Nie Yan tried to walk as carefully as possible, but walking in the field, seeing the lush crops, he had never seen such a scene, and Nie Yan, who didn't even know the crops well, couldn't help but feel fresh.

When I walked around, I couldn't help but take a few more curious looks.

But he didn't want to, at this time, a small pebble whistled quickly towards Nie Yan's back with the sound of the wind.

"It's rude." Nie Yan whispered in his heart, how could he be hit by such a stone, a dodge that didn't know how to dodge and avoided this stone.

But the attacker didn't seem to be playing, and in a blink of an eye, two more stones came towards Nie Yan.

It seems that it is not a person who hides in a corner and attacks himself.

Nie Yan was angry in his heart, but his face became more and more calm, and he dodged again, avoiding one of the stones, and then, with a raised foot, he gently kicked away the other stone, and glanced meaningfully at the ruins of the broken city wall.

This was already a warning, but the person who attacked Nie Yan didn't seem to want to give up, and several small stones shot towards Nie Yan.

This time, Nie Yan no longer showed mercy to his subordinates, and after dodging the two stones, as soon as he stretched out his hand, he grabbed the other two stones with his bare hands, raised his hand, and hit the side where the city wall was broken.

From there, there were two 'ouch' sounds.

Nie Yan listened to it funny, but he didn't want to entangle, he turned around and left, but a really immature voice sounded behind him: "You thief, you hurt my second brother and third brother, don't go!" ”

"Huh?" Nie Yan raised his eyebrows, is he unlucky today? He was called a thief again and again.

As far as the eye could see, I saw a thin doll crawling out of the city wall, only 4 or 5 years old, still with snot.

Then, three larger dolls ran out of the broken city wall one after another, and one of them, who seemed to be a little more sensible, took the doll in his arms, covered his mouth, and whispered: "This person can't be provoked, it's so good to catch the stones." ”

The other two, however, were holding slingshots and looked at him vigilantly.
