Chapter 00: A Blind Man, a Dumb Man

Next Chapter

The blind young man felt the temperature from the palm of his hand, and the touch of a stroke, secretly distinguishing, what is this word? It seems to be "snow"?

The blind man didn't know that this was the first time she had left a word in the palm of her hand, and since he met her, the communication between the two had acquiesced.

"It's snowing?" He asked the girl in front of him,

Only a nasal muffled grunt was heard, a low, hoarse "Hmm." โ€

The girl couldn't speak, and could only pronounce simple syllables like "um" and "ah".

The girl tugged at his wrist, pursed her lips lightly, and continued to write with difficulty in the open palm of the blind man, and looked up at the blind man from time to time.

Her face was covered with mud, and she couldn't see her face clearly, but she could only see that her eyes were bright and clear.

When I looked at the blind man, my eyes reflected his appearance.

Young people close their eyes, and at the age of about 20 years old, between teenagers and young people, the untended stubble is scrambling to take the lead, adding to the vicissitudes of embarrassment.

The skin is white, and the facial features are also delicate, but there are a few dirty stains on the face that look sloppy, and the black hair is half long and not short with a small braid, exuding a slight odor,

A ragged shirt was washed and white, the patches were patched in the east and west, the muddy board on the leggings of the cloth shoes was broken and left stains, and there was a broken oil-paper umbrella behind him, and I didn't know if I could use it again.

The mute girl finally finished writing, and put her fingertips close to her lips and sighed, and the movement was a little bigger, and there was a crisp jingle sound from the girl's body.

The blind man could also feel the words she wrote.

[Xiya, don't fall. ใ€‘

"It's okay, with you holding me, I won't fall." The blind man smiled gently, fumbling with the cane at his feet.

After picking up the cane, he got up from the dry thatch he had picked up, touched the ground with the tip of the cane, and stretched out his hand.

The mute girl took his hand, took off the broken umbrella behind the blind man, propped it up, and led him out of the ruined temple and into the snowstorm.

The snow was pouring down, the cold wind was biting, there were few pedestrians on the road, and even the beggars on the roadside were not as lively as usual, wrapped up in tight clothes, and shivered together.

Several beggars heard the sound of the shriveled collision in the money bag in the blind man's arms, looked at each other a few times, and then got up one after another and followed behind them.

The mute girl wrote a few words in the palm of the blind man's palm.

"Don't be afraid, I'm here." He calmly spat out four words, which reassured the mute girl a lot.

Then she quickly wrote in the palm of her hand, she was a little anxious, but also very serious.

[Qin Xiya, don't hurt people. ใ€‘

He paused for a moment, then nodded slightly: "Don't worry." โ€

Then he turned his ear, and a rush of footsteps came,

It was the movement of a young beggar about to rush to his side,

Clearly blind, but its speed does not match its identity.

The next moment, the snow bright silver light flickered, and the clothes on the young beggar's body were scattered all over the ground, and the incision was smooth.

The beggar trembled, the two trembled, but the dirty pants that had not been washed for a long time came out with a hot smell, and he even forgot to pick up the clothes on the ground to cover his body.

The mute girl covered her mouth and nose and tugged at the corner of the blind man's clothes.

The blind man held the shaft of the staff with his left hand and the handle of the staff with his right hand backwards, and a touch of cold light was slowly entering the sheath.

With a "click", the cane and knife returned to the sheath, but the blind man still maintained the posture of about to draw the knife.

"A few people, it's cold, if the blood is spilled on the ground, then the bones of the body will be cold, there is no need, right?" The blind man spoke aloud.

The beggars with bad intentions also scattered in the form of birds and beasts, and the naked beggars also hurriedly picked up the clothes on the ground to avoid the cold and fled in a hurry.

The blind man put down the blind cane again, tapped the ground, and the tiny bumps on the bluestone slab were smoothed out by the footsteps of passers-by, and all kinds of touches were also transmitted to his hands through the blind cane.

Although someone led it, he still remembered it.

"Bell, Boss Gao, do you remember?" The blind man asked the mute girl.

"Hmm." She replied in a nasal voice.

"Today, when I'm done, find a bathhouse to take a bath and warm up." Qin Xiya said softly.

"Hmm."

There was a little joy in her nasal voice, and she led him on, and her steps were much brighter.

The bells jingle and jingle bells.

The blind man chuckled, followed her with a cane, and his mind moved slightly, and lines of handwriting appeared in his "eyes".

Even though he is blind, he can "see" these handwritings.

Miscellaneous items: There's no need to go deeper, right? ใ€‘

The panel came to an abrupt end here,

He's been looking at this panel for almost three years, although it's really nothing to look at, but... After all, I can "see" it, and I can talk about it for comfort.

It's been almost three years since I came to this world, and the past has gradually blurred, but fortunately, I can go back after all.

Hope seems slim like a flower in the mirror, but fortunately, I can go back.

My heart is my hometown, although there is peace of mind here, but after all, it is not my hometown,

But what happens here when I go back? He can let go of many things in this world, but he can't rest assured that this mute girl can't be relieved.

If she leaves, she will be alone again, just like she was then.

"Bell, if one day I'm not with you, you have to take my staff and knife and protect yourself, understand?" Qin Xiya closed the panel and said softly.

"Humph!" The sound of the bell sounded puffy, and he dragged Qin Xiya's hand and wrote the handwriting in his palm quickly and eagerly.

[Don't say anything unlucky!] Hurry up Bah! ใ€‘

The blind man smiled bitterly, but did so anyway, and snorted a few times,

The bell was a little cold and shivering, but fortunately, it also kept her warm last night.

But at this time, the weather is still cold, in addition to the night, during the day, it is necessary to spend some Baduan Jin Neiqi to ward off the cold for her.

The second finger of the food was lightly placed on the wrist of the bell, and the eight sections of brocade internal qi were fed along the veins, constantly dispelling the chill of the bell.

Warm, the bell couldn't help but snort softly.

"When the time comes, you will have a good rest in Boss Gao's inn, I'll see if there's anything to do, anyway, the year is not good now, don't run around, you know?"

"Hmm."

Listening to the girl's nasal voice, Qin Xiya's heart softened a lot.

โ€”โ€”

"Oh, Brother Qin, are you here? Please come in, please come in, it's such a cold day, warm up. The one who spoke was Boss Gao of the Yuelai Inn, and then Boss Gao teased with a smile, "Speaking of which, it's rare to see someone like you who eats everything in black and white, Brother Qin, who is both a knife catcher and a blood-clothed person." โ€

"Boss Gao laughed, it's true that I'm a knife catcher, but people always have to have some side jobs to make money, no one has too much money." Qin Xiya laughed.

What is a knife catcher? To put it simply, some good hands in the rivers and lakes are registered in the government, wandering around to catch criminals.

As for that person, he is either a big thief or a murderer, some of them have ordinary martial arts, and some of them are powerful, so the difficulty curve is different.

It doesn't matter if the prisoner lives or dies, but it is better if the prisoner is alive, because then the reward can be exchanged for more silver, and most of the knife catchers will spend a period of time drinking after taking the reward, and stay until they run out of money and food after the drunken dream dies and continue to drift.

Although it seems to be happy, it is also a knife licking blood.

In the past three years, since Qin Xiya registered as a knife catcher, he has received a reward of not 1,000 but 800 silver, why does he seem to be destitute?

Isn't it for the future of the bell?

He exchanged the money he received for real estate, and he would buy a cottage in every place he went, and he left some money in the hidden place of the cottage so that the bell could remember the location, and the title deed was also stored in the bell's personal inner pocket in case of emergency.

Only in this way can he feel at ease, but his worries always overweigh his peace of mind.

Therefore, in the past three years, there have been more and more properties, but the place where the two live is lingering in the Broken Temple Inn, after all, not every place has a property.

Jianye City just doesn't have real estate.

It seems that today, Qin Xiya rushed all the way to Jianye City to complete the task of catching the knife, and after escorting the prisoner to the Jianye Mansion, he came to the branch of the Bloody Clothes Building Yuelai Inn to find Boss Gao, but it happened that Boss Gao was not there, and he was reluctant to pay, so he "borrowed" the bell in the broken temple.

However, I think that Boss Gao should be here today, and he can also take a killer task to supplement food and lodging by the way.

He also knew Boss Gao earlier, but he didn't expect Boss Gao to be transferred to Jianye.

As for the blood-clothed man, it's easy to say,

The bloody man in the bloody clothes building is simply a killer.

But the blind man has morality in his heart, and the people he kills are all wicked people.

Like a killer, it's normal to have "quirks", as long as you can complete the oath sticker.

But the quirk of "only killing the wicked" is also rare in the Bloody Cloak Building.

After contacting Boss Gao with the unique connection method of the Bloody Cloak Building, he came with a bell, otherwise he wouldn't have to live in a broken temple to deal with it overnight.

โ€”โ€”

Inside the Joy Inn.

"Brother Qin, I admire you for being a person, but there are no wicked people in today's oath to kill, I'm afraid you're going to have to eat a closed door." Boss Gao was a little sneering.

When the blind man heard this, he said: "Then arrange two adjacent rooms, rest for the night in Jianye tonight, enjoy Jianye's snacks tomorrow, and wait for the snow to stop melting before leaving, this is convenient, right?" โ€

"Naturally, it's convenient." Boss Gao nodded, "But Brother Qin, don't be impulsive, although there are few people in the small stack, they are not good matches." โ€

"I'm provincial." The blind man nodded slightly, remembered what he said earlier, and asked, "Boss Gao, is there any better bathhouse in Jianye City?" โ€

"Naturally, there is."

ยทยทยท

Qin Xiya soaked in the pool, holding a blind cane in his arms, and his whole body was comfortable, after all, he might not have taken a bath for a long time.

The water is steamy, and everything around me is laughing and scolding, and there is also the sound of scrubbing and drinking, and the sound of scooping water is intermittent.

The blind man's thoughts wandered, and the murmur in his ears gradually faded away.

He thought about his first day in this realm.

At that time, it was the seventh year of Tianyuan, and it was also a snowy day.
