Chapter 25 Children, don’t wander around at night

The trash can exuded a greasy stench, as if kitchen waste had been piled up for a while, and then swill was poured in and mixed together.

The green trash can is half a person tall, and Xiong Peihan is hiding behind the trash can.

At this time, Xiong Peihan had disappeared, and there was silence around him.

The palm of the hand was slightly warm, and the crimson bones shone with a faint red light.

Yu Qing turned around, his eyes filled with cold murderous intent.

"Sister, I can't find my parents. Can you help me find them?"

A little girl of about eight or nine years old appeared behind her at some point, tilting her head and looking at her with a pair of big, watery eyes.

The little girl is dressed in a festive red cotton coat, red cloth travel shoes, and a Nezha haircut. A small red bell hangs on her temples, jingling in the wind.

Purely cute.

She was like a child who didn't understand the world, stretching out a white and tender hand.

Anyone would think to themselves that if he rejected her, she would not be angry.

Yu Qing was silent, and the little girl raised the corners of her mouth slightly and repeated what she just said with a sweet smile.

If you look closely, you will find that her smiling eyes are actually full of coldness and ruthlessness.

Yu Qing shifted his gaze and looked at the causal thread on the little girl's body, which was slightly darker.

"Sister, I can't find my parents. Can you help me find them?"

"Sister, I can't find-"

Leng Ran's voice kept ringing.

It took a long time for Yu Qing to react. She reached out and took the little girl's hand in mid-air, "Okay, I'll take you to find her."

"Thank you, sister." The curvature of the little girl's mouth widened.

The quiet and dark path disappeared silently, leaving only a straight street on the way.

The wooden houses on both sides of the street were hung with a row of long lights, illuminating the road ahead.

The ever-burning lamps have different colors, some are slightly yellow, some are completely black, and there are also a few pure white colors, and the candles inside are endlessly burning.

The boots hit the ground and made a slight sound of footsteps, "ta da da, da"...

Covering up the crisp sound of the bells clashing.

Passing several familiar shops again, Yu Qing turned her head and said casually, "Children, don't wander around at night, otherwise you will easily encounter bad people like now."

She didn't seem to notice anything strange.

The little girl nodded and glanced at the brush in her hand. She felt an unknown sense of fear. She looked ahead with fear and stopped looking around.

"Can you tell me about you?"

The little girl closed her eyes and said in a cold voice: "What do you do if you know this?"

Yu Qing suddenly stopped and lowered his head to look at her with a smile on his face, "Curious."

Did you learn that smile from her...

The little girl bit her lip, stared at her for several seconds, and asked without answering: "Sister won't take me to find my parents?"

"Looking for it," Yu Qing said, "but I'm more curious about how you got lost. There's still a long way to go, which is very boring to me."

The warm light from the ever-burning lamp enveloped half of her body. In the blur, the little girl felt that she couldn't see clearly whether she was smiling or...

mercy?

Who are you pitying, her?

The little girl looked away in panic, subconsciously tightening Yu Qing's hand, but she couldn't pull it even an inch.

She was silent for a while.

"My name is Xia Xia..."

Now walking towards the destination again, Xia Xia breathed a sigh of relief. "I was born in a small mountain village. Although it is poor and has inconvenient transportation, the scenery is very beautiful, with blue sky and white clouds, golden rice fields, and the air is filled with the fragrance of vegetation."

When Xia Xia was seven years old, she was finishing kindergarten and going to elementary school after the summer vacation. The education in the village was relatively backward, so she had to go to the town to study.

At that time, there were no cement roads, only dirt roads. Occasionally, there would be a heavy rain, and the road could not be walked on, but she insisted on walking to school alone every day.

The family's fields and livestock needed to be taken care of, and her parents did not have time to pick her up and drop her off. The young Xia Xia went to first grade alone for half a semester until her eighth birthday.

School had started, and there was snow everywhere on the road, making it very slippery. Because school had started, she put on clothes newly made by her mother for the Chinese New Year.

Xia Xia braved the cold wind and was about to reach the town when she accidentally slipped and rolled down the hillside. When she woke up again, it was already dark.

"I was here when I woke up, and I happened to see my sister. I didn't wander around. I was injured, so I couldn't find my parents."

When Xia Xia said this, there was a bit of sadness and annoyance on her face.

"Really?" Yu Qing said coldly.

The clothes on her body were clean, no mess or signs of injury.

It doesn't matter whether a person who falls off a cliff survives or not, even in this outfit, he doesn't look like a person who rolled across the mountain.

"Sister, don't you believe me?" Xia Xia said sadly, "I won't lie."

"I believe."

You ghost!
  A lot of nonsense.

Xia Xia suddenly paused and turned to look at Yu Qing with a strange smile: "But I think my sister is telling lies."

...

Cheng'an Baozi Shop has two ever-burning lanterns hanging at the door.

Behind the wooden door, there were several kitchen knives on the table, next to them were moldy and rotten dough balls, and the steamed buns in the steamer were also covered in dust and moldy.

In the small courtyard close to the house, a huge figure held a knife in one hand, and held a humanoid object in the other hand to push open the courtyard door, and skillfully tied up the person who had just been dragged in with a rope.

There are more than a dozen lanterns hanging here, and the lights of different colors illuminate the face of the person on the ground, who is Xiong Peihan.

He closed his eyes tightly and fell into coma. There were drag marks on his back.

One meter away from him, a man-sized pit was dug out of the ground. The people inside struggled to crawl out, occasionally letting out shrill screams.

Until he climbed out of the pit completely, the blood soaked the soil into dark red, and he felt a sharp pain in his body, and the person lying on the ground was shaking all over.

The gasping sound of "hum hum hum" gradually approached.

He raised his head in horror and endured the severe pain to crawl with both hands. He saw the pit in the corner of his eye, his pupils were shaking, and fear spread in his heart.

In addition to his blood, there was a piece of perfect human skin in the pit.

He lowered his head in despair and saw that his body was red and blood was flowing out, seeping into the soil.

Suddenly his right foot was grabbed by a big hand and dragged into the abyss.

There was a deathly silence in his eyes, and he gave up struggling.

...

Yu Qing looked into Xia Xia's eyes.

The two people's eyes met, and they faced each other for two seconds.

"So what if you lie?"

Xia Xia's pupils dilated, as if she couldn't believe it, "You, how could you lie to me!"

She let go of Yu Qing's hand and took a few steps back angrily. Behind her, there was a plaque that read 'Cheng'an Baozi Shop'.

In so many years, this was the first time someone dared to lie to her!

Xia Xia clenched her fists, and earth-shaking changes took place in her body.

The snow-white skin gradually faded away, and the bright red color filled the entire body. The dark pupils were sunken, and the small mouth on the flesh opened and closed, which was particularly strange.
