Chapter 403

The house in front of me was windy, and the whole house was tottering in the cold wind.

After Li Lin knocked for a long time, there was a voice in the room. Li Lin couldn't understand the language here.

"Children?"

The sound in the room was very childish. Li Lin couldn't help thinking so.

Creak!

The door is open! A small head peeped out from the crack of the old door. The little boy looked about eight years old and looked at Li Lin with curiosity in awe.

“#**#*”

The child said a word, but Li linleng didn't understand.

"I'm from outside! I want to go into that mountain. Now it's late and there's no place to live. If you want to stay for one night, you also need a guide! I'll pay! "

Li Lin said in Mandarin.

Afraid of being rejected, Li Lin said so much again.

"Then come in!"

The little boy thought for a moment, said in stiff Mandarin, and then took Li Lin into the house.

The door opened and Li Lin looked into the house. The dim house made Li Lin uncomfortable.

Creak!

Entering the door, the little boy pushed the door again and closed it gently. The originally dark room suddenly became darker.

He followed the boy inside for a few steps, and the fire in front attracted Li Lin.

By the light of the fire, Li Lin saw the layout of the house.

Ragged wooden cabinet, ragged bed, ragged quilt on the ragged bed.

What glows is the stove, on which there is also a black pottery pot.

By the fire, on a three legged bench, sat a little girl of five or six years old.

The little girl's hair was disheveled and knotted. With the flash of fire, Li Lin also found that the little girl's face was black.

Seeing a stranger coming, the little girl moved back with her stool.

"This is my sister!"

The little boy pointed to the little girl and said shyly.

"Well! Hello, little sister! "

Li Lin said kindly.

Hoo!

Then a cold wind blew from the broken wall made of broken boards.

Crackling!

The fire was suddenly splashed with sparks.

Click!

The black pottery pot on the stove was overturned by the cold wind and fell to the ground. The pottery pot was torn apart.

"My meal!"

Hearing the sound, the little girl rushed to the stove and Li Lin grabbed it.

On the other side, the little boy quickly picked up the pottery pot and rescued some dark things from the broken pottery pot. Put the broken pottery pot away, and the little boy picked up the dark things on the ground and stuffed them into his mouth.

"You eat this? What about your parents? "

Seeing this, Li Lin was stunned.

Can I eat this?

The child's parents don't care?

The little boy stopped suddenly and there was a silence in the room.

"Woo woo! Ma ~ "

Suddenly the little girl cried. Li Lin was at a loss and had to pick up the little girl.

When I touched the little girl's hand, a cold feeling came.

"My father left and my mother ran away with others!"

After a while, the little boy replied with his head down.

"Er..."

Li Lin was silent. Then he took out the bread and his own dry food from the bag and handed them to them.

"Big brother! We are not hungry! "

The little boy looked at the bread and biscuits in Li Lin's hand and his throat twitched.

The little girl stared at the cake and saliva spilled from the corner of her mouth.

"Eat! I still have! "

Li Lin stuffed the bread, cake and other food in his hand into the hands of the little boy and the little girl respectively.

"Oh!"

The little boy pursed his mouth and finally nodded.

Then Li Linyou took some milk from his backpack and handed it to them.

"Eat slowly!"

Seeing the brother and sister unpacking and gobbling at the bread, Li Lin was sour.

This time he came out in a hurry. He didn't bring much food at all. Li Lin didn't worry about it. After all, he can go into the jade pendant space at any time and mix with Wang Laoliu.

But seeing the brothers and sisters, Li Lin felt that he had brought too few things.

While the two brothers and sisters were eating, Li Lin looked at the shabby house.

There is no water or electricity, not even a kerosene lamp.

The only iron thing in the family is a pot, and the rest for cooking is either wood or ceramics.

From the mouth of the two brothers and sisters, Li Lin learned all about them.

My brother's name is Zhang Hai and my sister's name is Zhang Cao. She is from Tu nationality.

When Zhang Hai was six years old, his father was ill, and his mother ran away with others, which made him angry on the spot.

The rest is that the two brothers and sisters live like this.

Because they are too young to farm, their fields are farmed by their neighbors, and they can get something to eat from their hands every year. Originally, the family was destitute because of his father's illness. After his father went, life was even worse.

Zhang Hai, who was originally in primary school, was forced to drop out.

Li Lin is even worse after listening to the story.

That night, Zhang Hai sent the quilt he had been reluctant to give up at home to Li Lin's room and paved it for Li Lin.

The quilt that the two brothers and sisters are reluctant to use is actually a quilt full of patches.

Compared with the two brothers and sisters' quilt with holes and cotton exposed inside, this quilt is really much better.

After the door was closed, Li Lin did not lie in bed to sleep, but folded the quilt and entered the jade pendant space.

Li Lin felt it was a sin to sleep on such a quilt, even if it was only one minute.

The next day, when Li Lin came out of the jade pendant space, he stuffed some food into his bag.

Wake up the brothers and sisters in the morning, and Li Lin hands them the food.

"We can't!"

Zhang Hai looked at the food in Li Lin's hand and said timidly.

"This is the reward! I'll rest with you for a night and haven't paid the room fee yet! "

Li Lin Dao.

"OK!"

Zhang Hai took the food and opened it. It was a big meat pie.

For children who haven't eaten meat for a long time, meat has a natural attraction to them.

This meat pie was made by Li Lin in Yupei space overnight.

Zhang Hai carefully tore a small piece from the patty and wrapped the rest of the dressing Patty again. Then he divided the small piece into two parts, one for himself and one for his sister.

When Zhang Cao finished his cake, Li Lin said.

"I want to go to the mountain opposite to collect medicine. I need a guide. It's 200 yuan a day. Will you do it?"

Li Lin asked.

When he came to the Yunnan Guizhou Plateau, Li Lin's idea was to go into the mountain to collect medicine in person. One of the herbs bought outside is not at ease, the other is not alive.

In addition to the herbs needed by grandpa, Li Lin wants to collect some herbs he doesn't have and put them into the jade pendant space for cultivation.

As for the catalogue of these herbs, Li Lin doesn't have a specific one. Anyway, as long as he doesn't have it, Li Lin will collect it.

"What is a wizard?"

Zhang Hai opened his mouth and his eyes flashed a trace of anxiety.

At first, when Li Lin said that the guide was 200 yuan a day, Zhang Hai's face showed joy. Then he thought of what the guide did?

What if you can't do it yourself?

Li Lin slapped the forehead!

Yes!

Children in the mountains, in addition to their most familiar dialect, the local language, have a good chance to contact Putonghua, and the word guide is a word that only appears in the textbooks of the third grade of primary school.

Zhang Hai dropped out of school in the second grade of primary school.

"It means to lead the way!"

"Lead the way! I Know! I am most familiar with that mountain. Every day I go into the mountain to dig yam eggs and come back to cook! "

Hearing that the guide meant to lead the way, Zhang Hai almost jumped up.

Two hundred dollars a day is a huge sum for children in the mountains.

After Zhang Hai was excited, he also worried slowly.
