Inside a piece of ruins.
There are many elderly people, children, and unemployed people who are spurned by others.
In this messy and cruel environment, in a not too big a house with ventilation on all sides, the elderly and girls brought Wei Xiao here.
They helped Wei Xiao to lie down on a bed made of broken cotton wool, and then went back to transfer the items on the trolley.
"Girl, go and boil the pot of water. Grandpa will clean up that uncle's wound in a while."
"Okay, Grandpa!"
Wearing a pair of croissants and wearing a shabby cotton jacket, the little girl hopped to boil the water.
The old man, after handling the things on the trolley outside the door, walked to Wei Xiao's side.
"Hurry up, search door to door, and don't let it go anywhere."
"Yes, Captain!"
Before the old man went to check Wei Xiao's situation, he was disturbed by a loud noise outside.
The old man hesitated for only a moment, and walked quickly to the place where piles of worn-out clothes were laid beside the bedside.
Then when the old man lifted the carpet that looked like a layer of mud, a hidden grid appeared directly below.
Turning around, he lifted Wei Xiao from the bed, and the old man carefully put him in the secret compartment.
Don't rush to cover the carpet and restore the surrounding clothes.
"Girl!"
"Grandpa, I have already boiled the water, eh, where's the uncle?" The little girl found that Wei Xiao on the bed was no longer there, with a look of curiosity on her face.
The old man pulled the little girl to his side and said seriously: "Girl, some bad guys are coming to catch the poor uncle. If they ask us for a while, we will say we don't know anything. We have never seen an unfamiliar uncle, know?"
The little girl has wide eyes.
She was very clever and said, "Grandpa, is it the same as before, when someone asks the girl, the girl hides beside Grandpa in fear, knowing nothing?"
The old man smiled with relief.
"Yes! The girl is so smart."
"The girl knows, she won't let the bad guys take the uncle away."
"So good!"
"Boom..."
Not long after the grandfather and grandson discussed it, their wooden door, which was only used to cover the facade, was pushed down directly from the outside.
"Ah...Grandpa, I'm afraid!"
I don't know if the little girl pretended to be or was really scared, the door was violently opened, and she screamed in fright, like a frightened deer ran behind the old man and hid.
The old man guarded the girl.
"My lord, we didn't violate the rules of the base..."
Before the old man could finish speaking, the armed men who came in said impatiently: "Don't talk nonsense, I ask you, is there any suspicious person coming to you tonight?"
"Suspicious personnel?" The old man thought for a while and shook his head: "My lord, here is a slum. How can any suspicious personnel come to places like ours? No, absolutely nothing."
The armed soldier said with a calm face: "If someone comes to you, I advise you to explain it honestly. Once we find out, you will die."
The old man shook his head.
"No, I didn't see any suspicious people, I didn't see any suspicious people. I can rest assured that if I find such a person, I will notify you adults as soon as possible."
"It's best to be like this. You can live to this day because of the mercy of the empress. If you let me know that you don't report, even if the empress comes forward, you won't be able to protect you old, weak, sick and disabled."
"Yes, yes! Thanks to the empress for her kindness, and the empress’s life-saving grace, the young man must remember it in his heart."
No problems were found, and the armed soldiers did not stay much, and turned and left.
Soon after the other party left, the little girl hiding behind the old man came out.
"Hehe...Grandpa, the girl just pretended to look like that?"
The old man fondly scratched the little girl's nose: "You little clever ghost."
"Hehe... Grandpa, where's the uncle? Where did you hide him?"
"Hidden in a very safe place. When the bad guys are gone, Grandpa will bring the uncle out."
"Grandpa is amazing!"
"The girl should be hungry? Grandpa is going to cook for the baby girl."
"Great, the girl is so hungry that she screams."
That night, the Heavenly Court Base was destined to have no peace.
Chu Tianhe, who had almost mobilized the armed forces of the entire base, almost searched the base, and did not find any whereabouts of Wei Xiao.
Originally, the bloodstains left by Wei Xiao could still be tracked for a certain distance, but the bloodstains left by Wei Xiao disappeared completely halfway through.
As time passed, Wei Xiao disappeared longer and longer, and it became more difficult to find him.
Naturally, Chu Tianhe and the king of heaven around him would not give up easily.
Strengthen the guards on the surrounding city walls, while continuing to search for Wei Xiao's figure in the base.
As long as Wei Xiao is trapped in the base, Chu Tianhe is not afraid of not being able to find him.
The night passed in tension.
It was just dawn the next day.
When Wei Xiao woke up, he found himself lying on a bed and straightened up his upper body.
"Uncle, are you awake?"
Wei Xiao frowned and turned to look at the sound source.
I saw a little girl trotting towards him with a happy smile, and then she lay her upper body on the bed and looked at Wei Xiao, not afraid of life at all.
Seeing the little girl's figure, Wei Xiao's vigilant eyes softened.
"You saved me?" Wei Xiao said warmly as he looked at the little girl.
The girl shook her head: "Grandpa saved the uncle! Uncle is too heavy, the girl can't move it." The girl pouted and said aggrieved.
Amused by the little girl's cute appearance, Wei Xiao stretched out his hand and squeezed her little face.
"My lord is awake?"
At this time, the old man came from outside with a bowl of soup in his hand.
Wei Xiao stood up and got up.
"Thank you for the old man's stay last night. I remember this kindness, Wei Xiao."
The old man came to Wei Xiao's side and put the soup in his hand on a simple table.
"The adults don't need to be polite to the little old man. We didn't do anything. We just brought the adults back from outside. By the way, if the adults have nothing important recently, don't leave here. Although I don't know what the adults did. The emperor was furious, but the current Heavenly Court base has been under martial law throughout the city, and there are celestial soldiers and generals everywhere outside."
Wei Xiao frowned: "Do you know that the person Chu Tianhe is going to arrest is me?"
The old man nodded.
"It was just a guess last night, but now, the little old man can confirm it 100%."
"Then why don't you hand me over to Chu Tianhe's people? If you hand me over, I dare not say anything, but Chu Tianhe will definitely not treat you badly."
Before the old man could answer, the **** the side said with a sobbing sound: "Those people are all bad guys. They robbed my mother and killed my grandma. They are all big bad guys."
Wei Xiao heard the sound and looked at the little girl.
He didn't expect that the old man and the little girl would have such grudges with the people of Chu Tianhe.
The old man walked over and hugged the crying little girl, and sighed: "This is all fate, no wonder. The adult's injury is not light, it is better not to walk around at will, so as not to involve the wound. There is nothing to entertain the little old man at home. Adults, you can only boil some wild fish soup for adults, adults don't dislike it."
From the old man's mouth, Wei Xiao could imagine their suffering for their grandparents.
No longer wondering, Wei Xiao, whose eyes were on the bowl of fish soup, accidentally found the little girl in the old man's arms swallowing.
With a light smile, Wei Xiao picked up the fish soup on the table and walked to the old man and the little girl.
"Come on, girl, uncle is not hungry, this is for you to eat."
The little girl had her big watery eyes open, and she clearly wanted to eat on her face, but after looking at the old man, she shook her head vigorously.
"Grandpa and grandpa said this was for the uncle's body. The girl is not injured and can't eat. Only the injured can eat meat."
Wei Xiao glanced at the bitter old man.
Kneeled down and pulled the little girl into his arms.
"The girl is not injured, but the girl is still growing, and she won't be full, but she won't grow tall in the future!"
The little girl looked at the old man.
"Don't worry. Uncle gave this to you. Grandpa won't blame you."
"Eat, girl, grandpa will make it for your uncle in a while."
Hearing what the old man said, the girl with tears in her eyes smiled happily.
