Chapter 71: Born in Winter, Born in Winter

Partial room.

Zi Yan looked at the little kid and turned her head to look at Zi Lan, "Is that him?" ā€

"Hmm!" Zilan nodded.

The sword mark on this kid's neck is still there, and it can't be wrong, she just used the sword to pull it.

"I almost sent him to see Lord Yama." Zilan pointed to the blood marks on the child's neck.

Zi Yan took a deep breath, "You go to the door and keep an eye on it, lest when the master calls someone, we are all staying here and not hearing it in time." ā€

"Hmm!" Zilan walked out of the door and stood in the corridor.

Zi Yan looked up and down at the child in front of her, the child with a bigger fart, so thin that he could even see the bones clearly, quite skinny, his cheeks were sunken, and his eyes were about to bulge.

"What's it called?" Zi Yan asked.

The ten-year-old child knelt down for Zi Yan with a plop, "That sister said, you can sue, I followed her in, my name is Dongsheng, my mother was born in Dongri, so I am called Dongsheng." ā€

Looking at his nervous appearance, Zi Yan subconsciously touched her chin, maybe she was too serious?

"Winter birth." Zi Yan thought for a while, "What are you going to sue?" ā€

Dongsheng knelt there honestly, "My mother and father were lost, and my sister and I were separated, all because of the ...... of the people in the government."

"Tucun?" Zi Yan asked.

Dongsheng didn't understand what Tu Cun meant, and blinked, "What? ā€

"Kill your father?" Zi Yan explained.

Dong Sheng hurriedly shook his head, "No, no, my father and mother are definitely not dead, but they were all arrested." They said that there was a time when there was an epidemic in the village, and that it would be contagious, so they took their father and mother away. At that time, my sister and I were hidden by my father and mother, and we escaped by hiding in the tank, and after coming out, my sister went to find my father and mother, and never came back. ā€

At the end, the ten-year-old whimpered and wiped his tears.

"Husband, what are you crying and crying about?" Zi Yan hates men shedding tears the most, "I haven't heard a word, don't men flick when they have tears?" ā€

Dongsheng was stunned, Xu was afraid of Ziyan's cold complexion, pursed his lips silently, blinked a pair of big eyes, and looked at her timidly.

"All the way from the village to here?" Zi Yan asked.

Dongsheng nodded.

"How long have you been wandering?" Zi Yan asked again.

Dongsheng replied, "It's been half a month!" ā€

"What the hell is going on in the village?" Zi Yan rubbed her eyebrows.

Dongsheng said in a low voice, "More than half a month ago, the official army broke into the village and took away all the people who should be arrested, saying that it was because of the epidemic, and I don't know anything else." But I know that Shangxi Village and Xiaxi Village are the same, they are all empty! ā€

He'd been there, and he couldn't be wrong.

"Since it's empty, why don't you get something to eat?" Zi Yan handed him a stack of pastries on the table.

Dongsheng didn't dare to take it, and looked at her cautiously.

"If she wants to kill you, she can cut your neck with a sword, why wait until now." Zi Yan put her hands around her chest, and she didn't start with disdain, and the little kid was quite cautious.

Dongsheng carefully picked up the pastry and stuffed it into his mouth.

The next moment, gobbling up, hating to lick the plate clean, he was so hungry, hungry for a long, long time.

"Before you come...... "his mouth was full of crumbs of pastry, and he choked on food because he ate too quickly," "and there are always people around the village who are guarding, and I—I can't get in." ā€

Zi Yan frowned in disgust, "There's water over there." ā€

Hearing this, Dongsheng hurried to drink water.

He shook his hands, poured himself a full cup, then poured two mouthfuls of water, blushed his face and neck, swallowed the last bit of pastry, and wiped his mouth with his dirty sleeves without scruples, with a satisfied face.

"It's delicious, it's the best thing I've ever tasted."

Zi Yan didn't say a word.

"Sister?"

Seeing Zi Yan turn around and leave, Dong Sheng was a little anxious, for fear that she would ignore him.

"Be honest." Zi Yan didn't look back.

The door closed, Dong Sheng looked around, and silently found a corner to squat.

Anyway, I don't eat and sleep in the open tonight, and I have a place to live.

These people look like good people......

"Clear?" Zilan hurriedly stepped forward.

Zi Yan had a calm face, "The village has long been empty, and more than half a month ago, all the villagers were taken away, and they don't know where to go." ā€

"Epidemic?" Zilan asked.

Zi Yan is not sure, looking at this kid's appearance, it doesn't look like he is infected with the epidemic at all, he is purely hungry, "People who are infected with the epidemic will not live for half a month, do you look at this child, does he look like a patient?" ā€

"Not like that!" Zilan shook her head, "In the middle of the night, I ran quite fast. ā€

In this way, where does it look like you have contracted the epidemic?

Zi Yan thought, there must be something wrong here.

Only, what's the problem?

"Taken away...... Zilan scratched her head, "Killed?" ā€

Zi Yan didn't know, and her face became more and more solemn.

Inside the room, there was a faint movement.

Qi Yue went out and glanced at the two people standing under the eaves, "Go in!" ā€

Hearing this, the two glanced at each other and entered the door one after another.

Qi Yue sat in the cloister, looking thoughtfully at the hidden door.

After reporting truthfully, Zi Yan and Zi Lan hung their heads and quietly waited for Baili Chang'an to give an order.

"Let him in."

Zi Lan went out to pick up people, and Zi Yan stayed in the room to wait.

In an instant, Dongsheng was led to Baili Chang'an.

"How do you look like a little chick?" Baili Chang'an's face was full of disgust, "I'm so thin that I'm about to float." ā€

Dongsheng's eyes were full of fear, he was not so scared from a distance before, but now he was in front of him, and the coercion of Baili Chang'an from the inside and outside made him breathless, and his body almost shrunk into a ball.

"I don't eat people, what are you shaking?" Baili Chang'an half-leaned on the cushion.

Dongsheng was still scared, trembling on his knees.

"Forget it!" Baili Chang'an supported his forehead, "Find him a suitable dress and hide it first." ā€

Zi Yan saluted, "Yes!" ā€

"Are you...... Good? Dongsheng cautiously spoke.

Baili Changan was suddenly amused by him, hooked his lips and smiled coldly, and even his eyes became evil, "I'm not a good person, I can kill people and eat people, you ...... Are you afraid? ā€

Dongsheng: "......"

Fear!

"Manly man, so timid?" Her face was full of mockery, "What a waste! ā€

Dong Sheng red-eyed, "Then will you save my father and mother, as well as my uncles and uncles?" ā€

"It's all like you, don't save it!"

As soon as the words fell, the older child quickly straightened the corners of his clothes, wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes, and stared at Baili Chang'an with anticipation in his eyes, "I don't tremble, I don't cry, and I'm not afraid of you, will you save it?" ā€

Baili Changan looked at him, upset for no reason, such a warm look was full of expectations, which made her very unhappy, "Get out!" ā€

Dongsheng pouted, didn't move, and didn't dare to cry.

Suddenly, Zi Yan came back quickly.

"Master, Lord Zhuo asked to see him outside the courtyard, saying that he was an assassin in Xingyuan!" When she said this, her eyes fell directly on Dongsheng.

Dongsheng's face was pale, and his body trembled like chaff......
