Zhuang Ming continued to walk forward, this time, he had completely given up gathering information, and instead focused on the children.

Soon, a child dressed in gray appeared in front of Zhuang Ming.

This child is only about three years old, much smaller than Xiaoya, but the difference is that the clothes on this child's body are extremely tattered, and his body is also incredibly thin, even if it is described as skin and bones, it is a little difficult.

His face was as rough as a centenarian, and his eye sockets were sunken, almost the outline of a skull.

Obviously, in such a deformed world, he is too young to even find some odd jobs for sewing like Xiaoya.

In a short moment, an adult man in his twenties and thirties carried a bucket of wastewater, in which some food scraps could be faintly seen. I have long heard the name of this food Xiaoya say, it is some special creatures fished from the River Styx, there are plants and animals. These things do not see the light of day all year round, and it is inevitable that some things that are not good for people's health will breed, and if they are in the outside world, no one will eat them at all.

But the people of the Corpse Golem Nation do not die, and they have no other choice. Therefore, the four corpse kings in the corpse puppet country will often organize powerful people to hunt in the river.

These creatures, which reproduce at an astonishing rate, will have an excellent harvest almost every time, enough to supply the entire corpse puppet country. Of course, even such food has to be served in layers.

Therefore, most of the waste water is some flat plants, which look dark and ugly.

When the child saw the man coming, he hurried to the side of the waterway and fell down.

Sure enough, as if he didn't see the child at all, the adult man directly threw the water in the poke into the waterway, and the child, like an animal, hurriedly reached out to cover the mouth of the waterway, blocked some food residues, and kept stuffing it into his mouth.

Seeing this, Zhao Xue'er, who was beside Zhuang Ming, covered her mouth incredulously, and hurriedly twisted her face to the side, unable to bear to look at this scene again. Such a scene is unimaginable in the human world.

The land boundary is wide and the resources are abundant, and the rulers of the states and cities have never been stingy with their own people, at least in terms of resources, and Chiba City as an example, there is also a separate department to manage the lonely and widowed people, and there is a large supply of materials every year to ensure that the young are supported and the old are dependent.

Zhao Xue'er has never heard of such a scene, let alone seen it.

Zhuang Ming walked slowly to the child's side, squatted down, he looked at the child who was constantly eating this is no residue and said, "I'll take you to eat delicious ......" Zhuang Ming didn't finish speaking, the child had already turned to look at him, like a skeleton-like face, that cold eyes, so that Zhuang Ming subconsciously put down the hand he was about to stretch out, and the words in his mouth were also broken.

After a while, the child turned around and continued to eat the scraps of food on the ground.

Zhuang Ming stood up, glanced at the child, said nothing, and walked straight forward. Seeing this, Zhao Xue'er behind her quickly followed.

It didn't take long for Zhuang Ming to meet several similar children on this street, they were of different ages, but no matter what kind of things they were doing, they were all similar.

That's the cold look they look like the adults.

By this time, Zhuang Ming had finally calmed down completely, and he could already confirm that all the children in this city, young and old, were just walking dead, and he originally thought that all the children were like Xiaoya, but now it seems that it is just his wishful thinking.

Zhao Xue'er looked at Zhuang Ming and frowned, "Brother Zhuang, I think Xiaoya may be different from these children. ”

Zhuang Ming nodded, and he sighed and said, "Indeed, I was preconceived before. He paused, stopped, turned to look at Zhao Xue'er, and said solemnly, "Now it seems that Xiaoya may be the only child who has kept her spirituality, and perhaps, she is different from others." ”

Zhuang Ming turned around and walked in the direction he came.

"No, I'm going back, I have to figure that out. ”

Zhuang Ming's speed was getting faster and faster, and a slightly anxious look appeared on his face.

The warmth he fantasized about did not exist in this world.

And Xiaoya is like the only room with fire in the endless ice field.

But where did all this come from, and why only Xiaoya can retain her unique spirituality as a human being in this deformed world.

When Zhao Xue'er saw Zhuang Ming's appearance, she also hurriedly chased after her. The two of them walked along the street and soon rushed towards Xiaoya's house.

However, at this time, Zhao Xueer stopped.

"Brother Zhuang, stop for a moment. ”

Zhuang Ming was about to leave the street and walk into the alley, when he heard Zhao Xue'er's voice change and stopped, he turned his head and looked at Zhao Xue'er suspiciously.

"What's wrong?"

"Look, it's Xiaoya!"

Zhao Xue'er pointed to the front of the street.

Zhuang Ming looked in the direction pointed by Zhao Xue'er, and sure enough, he saw the young back of the little girl, walking towards the end of the street.

"Let's take a look. ”

Zhuang Ming and Zhao Xue'er hurriedly followed.

Xiaoya walked all the way down the street without the slightest pause. It wasn't until the street was about to reach the end that Zhuang Ming and Zhao Xue'er glanced at each other in surprise. They all saw each other's surprised looks.

That's the direction of the River Styx.

"What are you doing over there?" Zhao Xue'er looked puzzled. ”

Zhuang Ming shook his head.

"Speaking of which, the first time we met Xiaoya, we were also on the edge of the River Styx. ”

At that time, Zhuang Ming and they had just come ashore, and the first thing they met when they came out of the fog was Xiaoya.

"Let's go and have a look. Zhuang Ming frowned and followed.

Soon the River Styx was already in sight.

Everything in the Corpse Puppet Country seems to have been completely left behind, and there is already another picture in front of him.

The secluded water, as when I first saw it, was quiet and unwavering, but I couldn't see it at all. In the distance, you can faintly see the huge stone pillar like the sky.

Although the scenery was only seen yesterday, the name of the village has a sense of being a thing.

In just one day, they have experienced too much in this corpse puppet country. Coming back here again, it is inevitable that there will be a lot of emotion.

The little girl in the field of vision stood on the edge of the River Styx in a daze, not moving, and she didn't know what she was thinking.

After a while, the little girl sat down on a big rock by the river, and then began to be stunned again.

Zhao Xue'er frowned, looked at Zhuang Ming and said, "This is wrong, Xiaoya even has to spend her sleep time at night to work and make money, how can she waste so much time coming here." ”
