On both sides of the path on the left, there is a knee-deep grass overgrown.

The tiger servant walked ahead vigilantly, sniffing his nose from time to time.

Xu Chong followed, and for the sake of safety, he sprinkled another handful of mung beans, and once again conjured dozens of soldiers in Tsing Yi.

At this moment, there were more than sixty soldiers in front of him, left and right, firmly guarding him.

Being protected by so many people makes me feel safe.

I followed the path zigzags and walked hundreds of meters forward, and found a dilapidated deserted village.

Xu Chong came to the deserted village and carefully observed for a moment.

It was found that this abandoned village is not large, and it is estimated that there are less than ten households in total.

Did you feel like there was a fire here? As a result, there are many houses, which are messy and charred.

Many of the houses have collapsed, but two of them are barely intact, but most of the roof has been missing.

At this time, Xu Chong looked up at the sky.

I found that the sky had begun to get dark, and I estimated that it would not be long before it would be dark.

Since there is a deserted village in front of me, I will spend the night here tonight.

Anyway, in this barren mountain range, it is rare to find a place to shelter from the wind and rain.

Xu Chong chose a decent dilapidated room and sat down, and ordered a few soldiers in Tsing Yi to pick up some firewood and come back, preparing to light the fire first.

At this time, the tiger servant stood outside the door, his nose twitching.

Seeing this scene, Xu Chong casually asked, "Did you find anything?" ”

The tiger servant nodded, "There seem to be people on the mountain behind this deserted village. ”

"Anyone nearby?"

Xu Chong's heart moved, and for the sake of safety, he hurriedly ordered: "Go and investigate and see if there is any problem." ”

The tiger servant nodded, and immediately ran towards the back mountain.

Soon, several Tsing Yi soldiers came in with a large pile of firewood.

By this time, the sky was also starting to get dark.

As the fire burned, in an instant, Xu Chong felt a lot warmer.

It didn't take long for the tiger servant to return, with a somewhat strange expression.

Seeing this, Xu Chong immediately asked, "How is it?" ”

The tiger servant said: "Just now in a secluded cave in the back mountain, I found a black dog and a girl hidden inside. ”

"That's it?"

Xu Chong was stunned for a moment.

The tiger servant nodded, "I only saw the dog and the child, but the child looked quite pitiful, with many scars on his body, and he was probably burned before." ”

Xu Chong frowned, "How can there be children in this barren mountain and wild mountains?" ”

Then he thought about it carefully, many houses in this deserted village had been burned down, could it be that it was in this village?

But how did a little girl survive here?

Thinking of this, he always felt that there was something wrong, so he said to the tiger servant, "Go and bring that girl to me." ”

"Good!" The tiger servant didn't hesitate, turned around and left.

As the fire burned, Xu Chong's stomach began to growl.

He took out the dry food from his backpack and baked it next to the fire, while he took out a sauce elbow, held it and began to gnaw slowly.

These things were prepared for him by Chen Zhutou from Wu'an County, and in addition to a lot of dry food and meat, he also prepared some gold sore medicine to treat external injuries.

I have to say that this Chen Zhong is really thoughtful.

It wasn't long before there was a frantic dog barking outside.

Immediately afterwards, the tiger servant came in with a child in his arms.

"Immortal Lord, this is this girl!"

Looking at the girl in the arms of the tiger servant, Xu Chong was taken aback on the spot.

I saw that this girl was thin and small, without a strand of hair, and her body was full of tender red scars, especially her small left face, the skin and flesh were completely entangled, and her appearance was extremely terrifying.

Saying that she is a human is actually more like a ghost.

The tiger servant put the girl down, she didn't cry or make trouble, just lying on the ground like a dog, her eyes looked straight at the sauce elbow in Xu Chong's hand, and her eyes were like hungry beasts.

Xu Chong was stared at by her and his scalp was numb, and he tried to talk to her, but found that she didn't understand at all and didn't react at all.

"I don't know if it's a human or a ghost?"

For the sake of safety, he took out the ghost beating stick from the Qiankun bag and gently touched the girl.

As a result, the girl did not react at all.

"It seems that it is really a human, not a ghost......

Seeing this scene, Xu Chong was completely relieved.

Wangwang......

Outside the broken house, the sound of dogs barking was constantly heard.

It should be the black dog that the tiger servant just said.

Listening to the barking of the black dog, it seemed to be full of worry and anxiety, but because there were soldiers guarding the door, it did not dare to come in at all.

Xu Chong stared at the hideous-looking girl in front of him for a moment, and his mood was a little complicated.

Burned like this, and alone in the wilderness, I don't know how she survived so far?

Not to mention anything else, just talking about the winter in the northwest, it will really freeze people to death.

This girl has no strands of body, her whole body is red from the cold, how did she survive the cold winter?

Thinking of this, Xu Chong's heart was full of doubts.

He shook the sauce elbow in his hand and asked the girl, "Do you want to eat?" ”

The girl looked at him with a stunned look in her eyes, but still did not react.

"Here you go."

Xu Chong shook his head and smiled, and handed her the elbow.

Like a wild beast, the girl quickly took the elbow, hugged it with one hand on her thin chest, and then used her hands and feet together, really like a beast, and quickly ran out of the house.

The moment she went out, in an instant, the black dog that had been barking outside instantly quieted down.

Xu Chong was a little curious, and hurriedly walked to the door to take a look.

found that on the path outside, there was a huge black dog standing, and at this moment, the girl actually took the sauce elbow and handed it to the black dog's mouth.

The black dog's eyes are unusually bright and seem to be very spiritual.

It stared at its elbow and sniffed a few times, then pushed its head back into the girl's arms.

Sensing that Xu Chong and the others didn't seem to have malicious intent, the black dog looked at Xu Chong and the others, and no longer grinned, and his eyes became much gentler.

This dog is good, human.

Xu Chong picked out an old dress from his bag, and instructed the tiger servant: "You wrap that girl up." ”

"Yes, Immortal Lord!"

The tiger servant took the old clothes and walked directly to the girl, wrapped them haphazardly around her skinny body covered with scars.

During the whole process, the black dog did not bark, and the girl looked at the clothes even more curiously, and did not move.

After wrapping the clothes, the black dog gently touched the girl's arm with its nose, and in an instant, the girl turned over and jumped on the dog's back.

In this way, under the gaze of Xu Chong and others, the black dog carried the girl and ran away in the blink of an eye.

The tiger servant stared at the direction where the black dog was leaving, and his nose moved a few times, "Immortal Lord, the black dog just now seems to have gained spiritual wisdom. ”

"Really?"

Xu Chong replied casually, and then entered the broken house again to eat on the fire.

Before dark, he ordered a few soldiers in Tsing Yi to go outside and find some hay to come over, spread it on the ground, and make a temporary bed.

At night, the tiger servant was arranged to keep vigil, so that he could sleep soundly.

Although the roof of the broken house is leaky, there is a wall to cover it, and there is a fire in the house, as long as it does not rain, sleeping next to the fire, it is still quite warm.

In the middle of the night.

Xu Chong was sleeping in a daze when he suddenly heard the tiger servant calling him.

"Immortal Lord, Immortal Lord......"

Xu Chong immediately turned over and sat up, "What's wrong?" ”

The tiger servant pointed outside with a strange expression, and said in a deep voice: "Please also ask the immortal master to go outside and have a look." ”

"It's the middle of the night, what's there to see outside?"

Xu Chong frowned, but still got up.

As soon as he walked out of the door of the dilapidated house, he saw the black dog squatting on the road, staring at him with flickering eyes, as if he was a little hesitant and a little afraid.

Seeing this scene, Xu Chong had some doubts in his heart.

In the middle of the night, what is the purpose of this black dog running to his door?

Suddenly, the black dog seemed to have made up his mind, and his eyes were unusually bright.

Immediately after, a strange scene appeared.

I saw that the black dog was on the ground with its hind limbs, and its whole body stood up tremblingly, and then it looked at Xu Chong with a nervous expression, and said with a somewhat stiff mouth: "You...... Do you think I look like a human being? ”

Begging for a seal?

This is a sign of evil!

Xu Chong's face changed suddenly, and he said angrily: "You beast, you are so daring, you dare to ask this immortal for a seal!" ”

After speaking, a handful of mung beans spilled, and in an instant, dozens of Tsing Yi soldiers were conjured out of thin air.

"Take it down!"

At the sound of an order, dozens of Tsing Yi soldiers immediately pulled out their waist knives and surrounded the black dogs who were begging for the seal like a vicious spirit.
