Chapter 348: Beef Soup Is Delicious
"Yes, dare to ask how many rooms there are?"
The girl said in a shrill voice, "There are two more rooms." ”
The shrill sound pierced the silence of the night, and several people couldn't help but feel creepy. The lights in the village gradually turned on, and the people who came and went remained silent.
The dilapidated houses gradually came into everyone's sight, and several people noticed that the further south they went, the worse the situation in the villages and towns became.
Luo Fanxing clamped the horse's belly, followed Luo Li, and said in a low voice: "Can we not stay here at night?"
"It's this hour, I don't know when I can get to the next village, I don't want to sleep in the wild, I'm going to go down, the autumn mosquito is as fierce as a tiger, I don't want to be mosquitoed." ”
A few people followed the emaciated girl to a dilapidated house on the edge of the village, where the autumn wind rustled the haystacks on the roof.
Jin Ayasheng looked at it for a moment and hesitated, "You have to stay here tonight?"
"Young Master Jin, don't pick it, I still have some food here, let's eat something and rest early, and hurry early tomorrow morning." You live with Mizuki tonight, and I'm with the stars. She dismounted and tied it to the inkstone.
"You ...... Got food?" the girl asked abruptly, turning around.
"Something to eat, are you hungry?"
The girl nodded timidly.
"Little girl, what is this village called?"
"Ogigaoka. ”
Luo Li followed her into the house, the half-hung wooden windows and the dirty earthen kang came into view, who would have thought that there could be a village with such a dilapidated life in Wangzhou, compared to four years ago, the current Qi country is already full of devastation.
"Where's your father?"
"I'm out on a run. The girl was silent, "There are only two rooms here, we live here, and the two of them live in the other room. She pointed to the other room, and then met Jin Ayasheng's fierce eyes, and shrank back in fright.
"What are you hiding from us?"
"I ...... We don't have anything to eat, can you give me something to eat?" the girl shivered with fright, and couldn't help but stroke her belly.
Luo Li and Luo Fanxing's eyes moved, and she immediately took out three packets of food and handed them to the girl and Jin Ayasheng.
"You two go to another room, it's a little inconvenient for us women to be here. ”
Qi Muxiao glanced at Luo Li faintly, stopped talking, and finally left with Jin Ayasheng.
The girl walked to the side with an oilcloth bag, opened it with joy, saw the beef jerky, and immediately tore off a piece.
Luo Fanxing poked Luo Li with his elbow, "Hey, isn't she...... A little big belly?"
"Hmm......" Luo Li walked up to her and asked in a low voice, "Little girl, how old are you?"
"Nine...... Nine years old. The girl picked up a piece of beef jerky, stuffed it into her mouth, and chewed deliciously.
Luo Li looked at the girl's slender body, and her erect belly was incompatible with her age, which was six months old.
The two looked at each other, and Luo Fanxing shook his head at her, signaling to leave it alone.
Luo Li bowed, "Is it delicious?" I still have some here, and we can't finish a few of them, so let's give you some." ”
"Really?!"
"Hmm. ”
Before the words fell, there were bursts of footsteps outside the house, and the lights flickered.
Seeing this, the girl's hand holding the jerky trembled violently, and the jerky fell to the ground, and she hurriedly picked it up and wiped it with her cuffs.
"You, you wait here, I'll take a look. ”
"I'm with you. Luo Li got up, and the two of them went out of the house one after the other.
The lights outside the house were bright, and dozens of people stood outside the courtyard with torches, shouting, "Come out quickly!"
"Village chief?" the girl opened the door, and people from outside the courtyard instantly poured in, surrounding the two of them.
The man at the head said aggressively: "Midoriko, why are you taking in outsiders to stay in Ogigaoka?"
Luo Li faced it calmly, and said solemnly: "This house belongs to the little girl, she can keep whoever she wants, and I want to ask you if you can?"
"I'm the village chief! The affairs of our village are still not up to you outsiders! You hurry out of the village! Ogigaoka is not welcome!" The man glared at the two of them and raised the torch in his hand.
The surrounding villagers also shouted at the same time, and for a while the flickering flames forced the two of them, and Luo Li protected the girl behind him.
At this moment, a white shadow flashed and jumped to Luo Li's side.
Qi Muxiao pulled down her sleeve, "What's wrong?"
Luo Li ignored him and took a step forward, "What's the matter? Kyushu is not the king's land, the emperor of Qi hasn't said anything yet, what do you want to do?"
Seeing that Luo Li was short, but the pair of eyes above the white gauze were sharp and penetrating, and his body exuded a kind of strong man's coercion, he took a breath, threw down a sentence of "stay if you are not afraid of death", and then left with everyone.
"Wait!"
"How?"
"What's going on with this child's belly? Don't you know what you're the village chief?"
The village chief shook his sleeves and led people away without saying a word.
There's always something strange about this village that can't be explained.
Luo Li sensed the tightness in the cuffs and looked sideways, "Loosen." ”
Qi Muxiao immediately let go of his hand, and a trace of panic flashed in his eyes.
Was she angry?
Before he could open his mouth, Luo Li had already taken the girl's hand and left.
The girl went back to the house, picked up the bag of jerky and went out of the room, leaving the two of them behind.
Luo Fanxing took out a set of clean bedding and was making the bed, "Don't you think this village is strange? The people here are all lifeless, and so is this child, who is ...... at such a young age."
"In the very old age, it's good to survive, no matter how much you ask questions, if we leave in the future, this child will not be happy. ”
When she was young, the girl came in with two bowls of fragrant broth, "There are still some greens at home, and there is beef jerky...... I made a pot of beef soup ......"
"Why bother, let's just eat some dry food. ”
Luo Fanxing was aroused by the taste of broth, she hadn't eaten hot food for two days, stepped forward and took the bowl, "......The beef soup is delicious!
The girl smiled lightly, "There are quite a few, everyone has them." ”
"If those two men don't give it, you don't have to send it, don't say it, this taste is really good!"
Luo Fanxing was unceremoniously, and saw the bottom of a bowl of soup in three or two, "Is there anything else?"
"Yes. The girl took the bowl and wanted to leave, but asked Luo Li to stop her, "I'll go with you." ”
Luo Li went to the kitchen with her, and under the dim light, the neat and clean kitchen surprised her.
The girl took the bowl and filled the broth with her.
Luo Li went back and saw that his bowl of broth had bottomed out, and sighed silently.
Going out to eat with a starving ghost is really basically a robbery.
"Sister also drink a bowl, the autumn night is cold, warm up. ”
Luo Li took it and drank a bowl of beef soup with a piece of dry food, and at this time Luo Fanxing had already gotten up and continued to spread the kang.
"Little girl, your name is Midoriko?"
"Well, sister, where did you come from? Ogigaoka rarely has visitors. ”
Suddenly, Luo Fanxing was half-propped up on the other side of the bed, and said in a trembling voice: "Hurry up...... Run!"
