Chapter 842: Horrible

"Ah?"

There was only a worn-out straw mat in the hut. On the mat, a two-foot-sized baby was lying on his back. Well, it was more like a skeleton than a baby! Because the child had a big head, deep-set eyes, no flesh on his face, and the skin stuck tightly to the bones! He was not wearing any clothes, his ribs were bulging on both sides, his arms and legs were curled up, and every bone was exposed! If it weren't for the rising and falling of the chest, Xue Xue would have almost thought that the baby had lost its life with the naked eye!

"Poor" Xiao Hua sighed and continued to move forward. Next to the hay shed was a field ridge, and an old man in ragged clothes squatted there feebly, looking at the dozens of young seedlings in front of him with dull eyes.

The voices of Xiao Hua and Xue Xue had already alarmed the old man, but the old man looked up lightly, his cloudy eyes were cold, and he lowered his head again.

"Old man!" Xiao Hua stepped forward and bowed.

"Old man?" Xue Xue once again saw the difference in Xiao Hua. She understood in her heart that although Xiao Hua's face was very young after practicing to this point, he may not be much younger than this old man, so there was no need to be so respectful.

"Brother, what's the matter?" The old man seemed unwilling to pay attention to Xiao Hua. Without even looking at Xiao Hua, he whispered in a low voice. The voice seemed to be in his throat, as if he was afraid of wasting his energy.

"Old man..." Xiao Hua's words were stuck in his mouth, and he didn't know where to start the question.

Think about it for a moment. Xiao Hua turned to Xue Xue and said, "Madam, is there anything to eat in your storage bag?"

"Yes, yes," Xue Xue said hurriedly, clapped her hands, took out a jade bottle and handed it to Xiao Hua.

"What is this?" Xiao Hua frowned.

"Bigu Pill," Xue Xue said quickly.

"Alas" Xiao Hua shook his head and said, "This thing can only be eaten by grains, but it cannot support the food of ordinary people!"

"Oh."

Immediately, Xue Xue's eyes lit up and she reminded: "Husband, although we don't have food, we can still eat spiritual fruits and so on..."

"Yes." Xiao Hua slapped his forehead, raised his hand, took out several different spiritual fruits, and tasted them one by one. My mouth started to feel bitter!

There is so much spiritual light in his space,

All spiritual fruits are full of spiritual energy, which is excellent for cultivators, but how can these secular people eat them? Not to mention the elderly and infants whose bodies are close to collapse.

"What should we do?" Xiao Hua was scratching his head. 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 would not be able to wait for him to come back!

"How about taking the baby with you?" Xiao Hua felt pity.

"Husband" Xue Xue clapped her hands and took out a few long-dried jujubes. He whispered, "This is what I took out to satisfy my craving in the Xunlei Palace in my early years. Do you think it's okay?"

"Da Shan" Xiao Hua reached out to take Ling Zao, kissed Xue Xue on the face, and said with a smile, "You saved two lives today!"

Looking at Xue Xue, she was 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 should eat this jujube first, and Xiaoke will ask you slowly!"

The old man's cloudy eyes flashed with a trace of luster. He waved his thin, dark, dry and dirty hand, grabbed a few jujubes, opened them and threw them into his mouth.

"Old man" Xiao Hua quickly blocked the old man's hand. As if he didn't mind the filth on his hands, he whispered, "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 bit of jujube flesh with his teeth!

Xiao Hua observed the old man carefully, fearing that there would be something wrong with this Ling Zao! But after the old man chewed it for a while, he actually refused to swallow it and struggled to get up from the ground!

The old man has little physical strength now, how can he stand firm? Staggered and fell down again! Xiao Hua hurriedly supported him and asked, "Where are you going, old man?"

The old man didn't answer and rushed to the hay shed!

Xiao Hua sighed secretly, held the old man with one hand, and followed him into the hay shed.

Sure enough, the old man eagerly came to the front of the baby, knelt down on the ground with a plop, leaned down, and put the chewed jujube meat into the baby's mouth.

As soon as the fragrant jujube meat entered the baby's mouth, the baby started to bite greedily. After a few bites, the baby's slightly trembling lips stopped for a moment, and there was a trace of pain on his face, but then he started to bite again quickly. chew! Apparently, the baby bit his lip with his only rǔ teeth.

"Ying'er, slow down, grandpa still has it here!" the old man said in a deep voice, and hurriedly bit into another piece of jujube meat, wanting to feed it to the baby again!

Xiao Hua felt extremely bitter in his heart, and he knelt down and said warmly: "My father, the child is no longer in danger of death. He can't eat more of this jujube meat. You should eat it yourself first!"

"Hmm... um..." After listening, the old man looked at the baby's little tongue that greedily licked his lips. He wanted to give the baby more, but was afraid that something would go wrong, so he looked at Xiao Hua.

"Haha, Xiao Ke is here, and nothing will happen to the child!" Xiao Hua said again.

"Woo..." 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 in his mouth, it immediately rushed to his limbs like a torrent. An unparalleled feeling of comfort spread over him, and his limbs suddenly gained strength.

The old man was ecstatic. When he looked at the baby, his eyes opened wide and he even wanted to sit up.

"Thank you, Immortal!" The old man was no longer as indifferent as before, and bowed his head.

"Don't" Xiao Hua hurriedly grabbed the old man and said with a smile, "I'd better take another bite. You don't have to keep it all. Xiao will find a way for me later!"

"Yes, yes" the old man's own thoughts were revealed, and when he heard that Xiao Hua actually wanted to find a way for him, his eyes glowed, and he took another bite of Lingzao with some reluctance.

After eating the jujubes, the old man closed his eyes slightly and rested for a moment. The baby also sat up, with a pair of eyes that were very big because of his thinness, wandering around, looking at Xue Xue and Xiao Hua from time to time.

"The little old man's name is Fan Nong. This is the little old man's grandson Ying'er!" The old man came over to rest and bowed, "The little old man thanks the immortal and the fairy aunt for their great kindness, and also asks the immortal to give his name. Little old man My son and grandson will definitely set up immortality tablets for the Immortal Chief and the Immortal Girl, and pay homage to them!"

"Haha" Xiao Hua said with a flick of his sleeves, "Pindao's name is Xiao Hua, and this is Pindao's lover, named Xue Xue! As for the longevity card, we will talk about it later. I will first tell Pindao why this place is so barren. ?”

"Oh, it's hard to describe in words!" Fan Nong sighed, pointed down the mountain, and said, "The little old man lives in Fanzhuang at the foot of the mountain..."

Following Fan Nong's finger, there was a vague village in a depression at the foot of the mountain, with cottages scattered in twos and threes.

"Well..." Xiao Hua casually swept away his thoughts and wanted to ask again, but at this moment, Xiao Hua's face changed slightly and he said angrily, "Beast..."

As he spoke, Xiao Hua suddenly flew up and rushed down the mountain! That speed... is definitely something Xue Xue has never seen before!

"Husband..." Xue Xue covered her mouth again and watched with some disbelief as Xiao Hua disappeared into one of the cottages in Fanzhuang.

In a moment, Xiao Hua flew back again, and saw a swaddled baby in his left hand, and a thin woman in his right hand. The woman's eyes were closed tightly, and she seemed to have fainted.

"Husband, why is this?" Xue Xue asked strangely.

Xiao Hua's face was very ugly, he did not answer Xue Xue, handed the baby to Fan Nong, and said: "Old man, please feed some of the dates to the baby!"

"Yeah." Although Fan Nong was a little reluctant to give up, he didn't dare not listen to Xiao Hua's words. He bit a little bit of jujube meat, chewed it up and fed it to the baby. At the same time, Xiao Hua pointed his hand at the woman, and the woman slumped on the ground opened her eyes.

However, the ashen-faced woman had no brilliance in her eyes at all. She glanced at Xiao Hua and then fell on the baby in Fan Nong's hands!

"Xiao, let me ask you this," Xiao Hua said coldly, "Since ancient times, evil tigers have not eaten their own children. Why do you want to kill your own babies?"

"Huh??" Xue Xue was shocked and looked at the dark and thin woman in disbelief again.

The woman ignored Xiao Hua at all, and struggled to get up, but she moved a few times, but she seemed to have no strength. She sat down again, her gray eyes rolled a few times, and a hint of sarcasm emerged.

The sarcasm angered Xiao Hua, and Xiao Hua said coldly: "Xiao knows that you have been hungry for a long time and will die if you don't eat, but... can you bear to eat your own flesh and blood raw? Are you... still a human being? ?”

"Haha, hahaha!" The woman laughed sadly, "The slave family is naturally not a human being. Who else can the slave family be?"

As he spoke, he fell to the ground and cried feebly.

"Master Xiao..." Fan Nong saw this and whispered, "Zhenren may have misunderstood Mr. Qian. She and Qian Er have always been...filial. She...is...wanting to use her child...to feed her." Mother?"

"Ah???" Xue Xue exclaimed involuntarily, "Then... where is Qian Er?"

"I'd like to teach Xue Xiangu to know," Fan Nong said sadly, "If the little old man's guess hadn't been made, Qian Er... I'm afraid... would have been in his mother's womb!"

Xue Xue no longer screamed this time, her right hand trembled slightly, and an inexplicable brilliance flashed in her eyes!

"Alas, Xiao is wrong!" Upon hearing this, Xiao Hua immediately swept out his spiritual thoughts and saw a dying old woman lying on the ground in the village house. He sighed and bowed to Qian.

"What can you do wrong, immortals? It's all mortals like us who are wrong!" Qian didn't seem to appreciate it and said coldly, "Even if we eat the flesh of our own children raw, if there are no spiritual stones, you will never do it." Take action! You are free and easy, why do you care about my life and death? Now, even if you save my child, can you save my mother in Fanzhuang? Can you bring back to life dozens of people who are dying of hunger?”

ps: Alas, there are some things that Xiao Hua will do without hesitation! Even if it has nothing to do with cultivation! ! (To be continued...)
