Chapter 842
"Ah?" Xue Xue glanced at it casually, and was immediately shocked, covering her mouth with her hands, her eyes wide open, and she looked inside in disbelief.
There was only a dilapidated straw mat in the thatched shed, and on the mat was a two-foot-sized baby lying on its back at this time, well, it was more like a skeleton than a baby! Because the child's head was big, his eyes were sunken, his face had no flesh, and the skin was tightly attached to the bones! She didn't wear any clothes on her body, her ribs were bulging, her arms and legs were curled up, and her bones were exposed! If it weren't for the ups and downs of the chest, Xue Xue would almost think that the baby had lost its life with the naked eye!
"Poor~" Xiao Hua sighed, and continued to move forward. Next to the grass shed was the field ridge, and an old man in ragged clothes was squatting there weakly, looking at the dozen or so tender seedlings in front of him blankly.
The voices of Xiao Hua and Xue Xue had already alarmed the old man, but the old man raised his head and glanced lightly, his cloudy eyes were cold, and he lowered his head again.
"Old man!" Xiao Hua stepped forward and said with a bow.
"Old man?" Xue Xue once again saw Xiao Hua's difference, and she knew in her heart that although Xiao Hua had cultivated to this point, although his face was extremely light, he might not be much younger than this old man, so there was no need for such respect.
"What's the matter, little brother?" The old man seemed unwilling to talk to Xiao Hua, he didn't even look at Xiao Hua, and said in a low voice, that voice seemed to be in his throat, as if he was afraid of wasting energy.
"Old man..." Xiao Hua's words were blocked in his mouth, and he didn't know where to ask.
thought about it. Xiao Hua turned to Xue Xue and said: "Lady, do you have something to eat in your storage bag?"
"Yes, yes~" Xue Xue said hurriedly, clapped his hands, took out a jade bottle and handed it to Xiao Hua.
"What is this?" Xiao Hua frowned.
"Bigu Dan~" Xue Xue said hastily.
"Ah~" Xiao Hua shook his head and said, "This thing can only be used for bigu, it cannot support the food of ordinary people!"
"Oh~" Xue Xue blushed slightly, understood Xiao Hua's meaning, and said in a low voice, "I haven't eaten fireworks for a long time. Where are some things?"
Immediately, Xue Xue's eyes lit up, and she reminded: "Husband, although we have no food to wait for, spiritual fruits and the like... should be edible too!"
"That's right" Xiao Hua patted his forehead, put his hand into a Buddha, and took out several different spiritual fruits, and tasted them one by one. The mouth actually gradually became bitter!
There is a lot of aura in his space,
All spiritual fruits are full of spiritual energy, which is excellent for practitioners, but how can these secular people eat them? Not to mention the elderly and babies whose physical bodies are close to collapse.
"What should I do?" Xiao Hua scratched his head a little bit, he knew in his heart that the old man's situation was better. The baby was in danger, even if he could fly back to the city to find food, the baby couldn't wait for him to come back!
"Why don't you take the baby with you?" Xiao Hua felt sympathetic.
"Husband~" Xue Xue clapped her hands and took out a few spirit dates that had dried up long ago. He whispered, "This is what my concubine took out in Xunlei Palace in the early years to satisfy my greed. Do you think it will work?"
"Dashan~" Xiao Hua stretched out his hand to take the Lingzao, kissed Xue Xue's face, and said with a smile, "You saved two lives today!"
Looking at Xue Xue is also beaming. Xiao Hua took a bite of the jujube, then handed the jujube to the old man, and said with a smile: "Old man, you eat this jujube first, Xiao Ke will ask you slowly!"
A gleam of luster flashed in the old man's cloudy eyes, and with a wave of his black, thin, dry and dirty hand, he grabbed a few spirit dates, opened them and was about to throw them into his mouth.
"Old man~" Xiao Hua quickly blocked the old man's hand. It seemed that he didn't dislike the filth on his hands, and said in a low voice, "You can only eat this thing one bite at a time, and...you can only eat half of it!"
The old man glanced at Xiao Hua, hesitated, twisted one out with his fingers, and gently bit off a trace of jujube meat with his teeth!
Xiao Hua observed the old man carefully, lest there be any problems with this Lingzao! But after chewing for a while, the old man couldn't swallow, and struggled to get up from the ground!
The old man has no physical strength now, how can he stand firmly? One stagger and another fall! Xiao Hua hurriedly supported him, and asked: "Where is the old man going?"
The old man didn't answer, and rushed to the thatched shed!
Xiao Hua sighed secretly, supported the old man with one hand, and followed him into the hut.
Sure enough, the old man eagerly came to the front of the baby, knelt down on the ground with a plop, bent down, and put the jujube meat that had just been chewed into the baby's mouth with his mouth.
As soon as the fragrant jujube meat entered the baby's mouth, the baby began to bite greedily, and after a few bites, the baby's slightly trembling lips stopped for a moment, and a trace of pain appeared on the face, but then, it was hasty again. chew! Apparently, the baby was biting its lip with its only baby teeth.
"Ying'er, slow down, Grandpa still has some more here!" The old man said in a low voice, and hurriedly bit a piece of jujube meat, wanting to feed it to the baby again!
Xiao Hua's heart was extremely bitter, so he also squatted down, and said in a gentle voice: "Old man, the child is no longer in danger of life, he can't eat more of this jujube meat, you should eat it yourself first!"
"Hmm... um..." The old man listened, and looked at the baby sticking out his little tongue greedily licking his lips, wanting to give the baby more, but afraid of something wrong, he looked at Xiao Hua.
"Hehe, with Xiao Ke here, nothing will happen to the child!" Xiao Hua said again.
"Woooo..." The old man whimpered, and finally swallowed the jujube meat that had been chewed for a long time.
Sure enough, as soon as the jujube meat was eaten, it immediately rushed towards his limbs like a torrent, and an incomparable comfort spread over him, and his limbs suddenly gained strength.
The old man was ecstatic, looked at the baby again, opened his eyes, and even wanted to sit up straight away.
"Thank you, Immortal Elder!" The old man was no longer indifferent as before, so he bowed down.
"Don't~" Xiao Hua hurriedly grabbed the old man, and said with a smile, "I'd better take another bite, I don't need to keep it all, Xiao will find a way for the old man later!"
"Yes, yes~" The old man's own mind was broken, and he heard that Xiao Hua actually wanted to find a way for himself, his eyes lit up, and he took another mouthful of Lingzao with some reluctance.
After eating the jujube, the old man closed his eyes slightly to rest for a while, and the baby also sat up, a pair of eyes that were too big because of his thinness, turned around, looking at Xue Xue and Xiao Hua from time to time.
"The little old man's name is Fan Nong, and this is the little old man's grandson, Ying'er!" The old man came to rest, bowed and said, "The little old man thanks the fairy head and fairy aunt for their kindness, and ask the fairy head to give him his name, little old man My son and grandson must set up a longevity card for the fairy head and fairy girl, and worship every day!"
"Hehe" Xiao Hua said with a flick of his sleeves, "The name of the poor is Xiao Hua, and this is the lover of the poor, named Xue Xue! As for the longevity card, I will talk about it later, the old man will tell the poor first why it is so barren here ?”
"Oh, it's hard to say!" Fan Nong sighed, pointing his hand down the mountain, and said, "The little old man lives in Fanzhuang under the mountain..."
Following Fan Nong's fingers, in a depression at the foot of the mountain, there is a vague village with scattered cottages in twos and threes.
"Well..." Xiao Hua swept away his Divine Sense casually, and wanted to ask again, but at this moment, Xiao Hua's face changed slightly, and he said angrily, "Beast..."
Saying that, Xiao Hua's figure suddenly flew up, rushing down the mountain rapidly! That speed... is definitely something Xue Xue has never seen before!
"Husband..." Xue Xue covered her mouth again, watching Xiao Hua's figure disappear into one of the cottages in Fanzhuang in disbelief.
After a while, Xiao Hua flew back again, and saw a baby in swaddle in his left hand, and a thin woman in his right hand. The woman's eyes were closed tightly, and she seemed to have passed out.
"Husband, why is this?" Xue Xue asked a little strangely.
Xiao Hua's face was very ugly, he didn't answer Xue Xue, handed the baby to Fan Nong, and said: "Old man, please feed some of the dates to this baby!"
"Well~" Although Fan Nong was a little bit reluctant, but Xiao Hua didn't dare not listen to what Xiao Hua said, he bit a little jujube meat, chewed it up and fed it to the baby. At the same time, Xiao Hua pointed his finger at the woman, and the woman sitting paralyzed on the ground opened her eyes.
It's just that the ashen-faced woman didn't have any brilliance in her eyes at all, she glanced at Xiao Hua, and landed on the baby in Fan Nong's hands again!
"Xiao, let me ask you~" Xiao Hua said coldly, "Since ancient times, vicious tigers have not eaten their babies, why did you kill your own babies?"
"Ah??" Xue Xue was shocked, and looked at the dark and thin woman in disbelief again.
The woman ignored Xiao Hua at all, struggling to get up, but moved a few times, she seemed to have no physical strength, and sat down again, her gray eyes rolled a few times, a hint of sarcasm emerged.
That sarcasm angered Xiao Hua, Xiao Hua said coldly: "Xiao knows that you have been starving for a long time, and if you don't eat, you will die, but... can you bear to eat your own flesh and blood raw? Are you... still human ?”
"Haha, hahaha!" The woman laughed sadly, "Naturally, the slave family is not human, what kind of people are the slave family!"
As he spoke, he fell to the ground, weeping weakly.
"Really Xiao..." Fan Nong said in a low voice when he saw this, "I'm afraid the real person has misunderstood Qian Shi, she and Qian Er have always been... mother?"
"Ah???" Xue Xue couldn't help exclaiming again, "Then... what about Qian Er?"
"I want to teach Xiangu Xue to know." Fan Nong said sadly, "If the little old man does not guess, Qian Er... I am afraid... is already in his mother's womb!"
Xue Xue stopped exclaiming this time, her right hand trembled slightly, and an inexplicable brilliance flashed in her eyes!
"Oh, but Xiao was wrong!" Xiao Hua heard this, and immediately swept out his divine sense, seeing a dying old woman lying on the ground in the cottage, sighed, and bowed to Qian.
"What's wrong with you fairy elders? It's me and other mortals who are wrong!" Qian Shi seemed to be ungrateful, and said coldly, "Even if we eat the flesh of our own children raw, if there is no spirit stone, you will never Take action! You are naturally free and easy, so who cares about my life? Now even if you saved my child, can you save my slave? Can you save my mother? Can you save my Fan Zhuang's? Dozens of people, old and young? Can you revive the starved folks?"
