In a small cave on the edge of the Yinling Mountains

"Everyone must finish the rice in the bowl, and no leftovers are allowed!" A little boy who looked to be only seven or eight years old, pretending to be an adult, said loudly to the four or five children sitting on the ground, "Only by eating well can we live well, and our parents can find us!" ”

"Brother Xiaoguang, this meal is so bitter, I can't eat it!" A little girl of four or five years old, holding a broken bowl, swayed to the little boy of seven or eight years old, blinked vigorously with two almost sunken eyes, and said with a look of anticipation.

It is clearly visible that the rice in the broken bowl is just a bowl of soup like clear water, which is undulating and floating, with a few weed-like vegetable leaves floating and sinking.

"Xiao Yun'er is good!" The boy named Xiaoguang smiled and took the broken bowl in the little girl's hand, put it to his mouth, blew lightly twice, took a small sip, and the little black face instantly twisted into a ball, and then he licked his lips, resisted the urge to drink it all, handed back the broken bowl in his hand, and said with a smile, "This is much better than yesterday's vegetable soup, everyone drink it quickly, no one is allowed to leave!" ”

"But, Brother Xiaoguang, you haven't eaten for a long time!" Xiao Yun'er didn't take the bowl, but said in a milky voice.

"Well, my brother is looking for something to eat, how can he be hungry?" Xiaoguang stuffed the broken bowl into Xiao Yun'er's arms, stretched out his remaining left hand, and gently rubbed the little girl's head, rubbing the already messy hair even more, and then he smiled at the four or five children around him, "When you finish eating, my brother will go out to find something to eat, and I'll bring you back the meat today, okay?" ”

"Good!" Hearing that there was meat, the saliva of several children beside Xiaoguang instantly flowed, holding the broken bowl in their hands, and drank it in a big gulp, it seemed that for them, the unpalatable weed soup in the bowl was like a delicacies from the mountains and the sea.

Xiaoguang watched several younger brothers and sisters around him gobble up the soup in the bowl, and couldn't help but swallow a few mouthfuls of saliva, but when he saw those four or five pairs of expectant eyes, he couldn't help but show a smile on his thin little face.

"I'm done!" A little boy of four or five years old shouted, he looked around the other friends who were still gulping down the soup, and proudly picked up the broken bowl in his hand, like a general who had won a battle and was waiting to be praised.

"Kotatsu is awesome!" Xiaoguang stretched out his thumb and did not hesitate to praise himself.

"Hehe, you want to eat meat at night, Brother Xiaoguang is not allowed to deceive people!" Xiao Chen put aside the large bowl that had been empty, and danced with excitement.

"Xiaochen, don't jump, it's only morning, it's still a long time before eating meat at night, you should be hungry again!" Xiao Yun'er turned her head and glared at Xiao Chen, who was jumping back and forth, perhaps because she was afraid of Xiao Yun'er, Xiao Chen immediately stopped jumping, and sat back on the ground honestly, motionless.

"Huh!" Seeing this scene, Xiaoguang's thin face couldn't help but show a smile, and he was about to say something, but at this moment, there was a muffled sound of "boom" outside the cave.

The children who were eating suddenly trembled, obviously frightened, but they all clung to their big bowls and quickly hugged each other, the boy on the outside and the girl on the innermost.

Their thin bodies were tightly pressed against the innermost wall of the cave, their small mouths were tightly closed, they did not dare to make the slightest sound, and their eyes looked in horror in the direction of the entrance of the cave.

For a long time, there was no movement outside the cave except for the roar.

"It's so fragrant, it's the smell of meat!" Xiao Chen sniffled vigorously, smelling the faint fragrance in the air, and his face was full of intoxication.

"Don't move, I'll take a look!" Xiaoguang tiptoed out of the cave, not daring to make the slightest sound, until he was almost at the entrance of the cave, he lay on the ground, used his hands and feet together, and moved towards the entrance of the cave little by little.

"I'm also... Not dead! Hu Xia lay motionless in a large pit, feeling the sharp pain in his body all the time, and the fragrant smell of barbecue, he didn't know whether to cry or laugh.

In the sky, the terrifying Heavenly Punishment Cloud finally completely dissipated, but in his body, blood-colored lightning intertwined, eroding his body all the time, even if he was restored to a little injury by the terrifying vitality in the soul suppression seal, but in the next moment, he would still be scorched by the terrifying lightning.

But the only thing that made him feel relieved now was that the blood-colored lightning was slowly fading, but this speed was really flattering.

"There are beasts! And also... Mankind! Although Hu Xia was extremely seriously injured, his spiritual sense was still there, and in just a moment, he felt that he was being targeted by a pair of cold eyes, and at the same time, on the other side of his body, he also felt several human breaths, but the breath was very faint, almost undetectable, and immediately he had a plan in his heart, collected the breath of his whole body, and lay on the ground like a corpse, motionless.

"That's, a corpse, and a wolf!" Xiaoguang lay in a shadow at the entrance of the cave, looking straight at Hu Xia at the entrance of the cave, and a wolf crawling on the ground not far away. He lay quietly in the shadows, not daring to move again.

I saw the wolf crawling on the ground, with two front hooves supporting the body, carefully moving its body in the direction where Hu Xia was, until it was about two meters close to Hu Xia, it stopped advancing, its two ears were erected high, carefully listening to all the movements around the person, as long as it sensed a trace of danger, it would decisively give up the prey in front of it, turn around and flee.

However, it was too hungry, and in the face of the constant smell of meat from Hu Xia's body, it no longer hesitated, opened its bloody mouth, and rushed towards Hu Xia like lightning, biting Hu Xia's shoulder, making a "bang" sound, and the wolf's teeth shattered.

At the same time, Hu Xia waved his right hand with all his might, like a spiritual snake coming out of a hole, grabbed the gray wolf's throat, and then turned over violently, using his own weight to crush the gray wolf under him.

Hu Xia gasped heavily, the blood in his mouth continued to overflow, but he could feel the huge force from the desperate struggle of the gray wolf under him, he slowly raised his already broken left arm, and stabbed deeply into the gray wolf's body with the exposed bones, and a trace of black mist slowly flowed, entering its body along the wound on the gray wolf's body.

After a while, Hu Xia only felt that the gray wolf under him finally stopped struggling, and he breathed a sigh of relief, and was about to raise his hand to say hello to the figure, but it was dark in front of him, and his whole person was completely lying on the gray wolf, and there was no movement.

At this moment, the thin figure hiding in the shadows slowly climbed up, he carefully looked at everything around him, the degree of caution was better than that of the gray wolf, finally, he touched Hu Xia's side, looking at the charred skin and muscles on Hu Xia's body, he couldn't help but gasp.

Xiaoguang stretched out his left hand tremblingly, probed between Hu Xia's mouth and nose, and after confirming that the other party was still breathing, he gently patted Hu Xia's body, and at the same time whispered in his mouth, "Uncle, uncle, can you hear me?" ”

I don't know how long it took, but with Xiaoguang's unremitting efforts, Hu Xia slowly opened his eyes.

"Water, water!" Hu Xia's voice was hoarse, as if two pieces of iron were rubbing against each other, making people's scalps tingle and his throat even more painful.

"Uncle, wait a minute!" Xiao Guang's face was happy, and he ran towards the cave with a step, and ran out of breath after a while, behind him, Xiao Yun'er held a big old bowl in his hand, and walked to Hu Xia's side slowly, three or four children of four or five years old, all carefully poked their heads out of the cave, and looked curiously at this mysterious figure who fell from the sky.

"The water is coming, the water is coming!" Xiao Yun'er brought the big bowl to Hu Xia's mouth.

Hu Xia carefully took a sip of water, but almost instantly, his brows furrowed, and he almost spit out the water in his mouth, the water was so bitter that it was almost difficult for him to swallow, but he still endured the bitterness and drank the water in the bowl.

After drinking the water, Hu Xia's spirit recovered slightly, but the blood-colored lightning in his body was still connected, devouring the vitality in his body all the time.

"Uncle, who are you? How did it come to this place? As soon as Xiao Guang saw that Hu Xia had improved, the kindness on his face earlier disappeared in an instant, but he grabbed Xiao Yun'er and took two steps back, looking at Hu Xia with a vigilant face.

"I'm a soldier of the flower planter, and I was injured by a monster during a mission, so I fell here!"

Hu Xia tried his best to pull out a smile, and said to Xiaoguang in front of him in the gentlest tone as much as possible.

"The soldier of the flower planter? What is that? Is it delicious? Xiao Yun'er wondered.

"Are you really a military uncle of the flower planter?" Xiao Guang's eyes lit up suddenly, ignoring Xiao Yun'er's words, he was already in elementary school at the age of seven or eight, so he naturally knew the meaning of the words soldier of the flower planter.

"Yes!" Hu Xia's eyes were firm, and he slowly spoke after a long time, "Why are you here?" What about your mom and dad? ”

"There are only six of us left here, there are no adults left, we are all kidnapped children..."Xiao Guang's bright eyes dimmed instantly, he bit his lip and stopped talking.

Hu Xia's heart trembled, he came out of the ruins and encountered the punishment of heaven, he didn't know how long it had been in the outside world, but it had been at least two or three months since the mutation began, he didn't dare to imagine what these children had experienced in such a long time, but the good thing was that they were all still alive.

"Okay, you go back to the cave first, I'll recover from my injuries first, and we'll talk later!" Hu Xia smiled bitterly, the corners of his mouth were bleeding, and the lightning in his body was cracking, and the problem was very serious.

"Uncle, we are guarding you, don't speak, you have a good rest!" No matter how precocious Xiaoguang's mood is, he is still a child, and as soon as he heard that the other party was a soldier of the flower planter, the sense of dependence in his heart instantly gushed out.

"But Brother Xiaoguang, you promised us to eat meat at night!" Xiao Yun'er said with a face full of grievances.

"Listen to your uncle, when your uncle is better, I will invite you to eat meat!" Hu Xia spoke softly, and gently gestured to the gray wolf who had already died under him.

"Good!" Xiaoguang nodded and pulled Xiaoyun'er towards the cave.

"Brother Xiaoguang, that uncle smells so good, I'm hungry again!" Xiao Chen licked his lips and looked at Hu Xia with straight eyes.

"Shut up, I said, even if you starve to death, you can't eat human flesh, if you have this idea again, you can go by yourself!" Xiaoguang reprimanded.

"I know it's wrong, Brother Xiaoguang, don't you want me!" Xiao Chen howled and cried.

"Let's go, let's all go in, don't disturb my uncle's rest!" Xiaoguang scolded.

"Uh-huh!" Everyone nodded and followed Xiaoguang into the cave.

Hu Xia sat up from the gray wolf's corpse with difficulty, the Daozang Exercise was running, the five-colored vortex in his body rotated, and the infinite energy hovering between heaven and earth instantly swarmed towards Hu Xia.
