Chapter 276

Hearing Bai Xiaohei's words, everyone was stunned. After knowing Bai Xiaohei for such a long time, they actually didn't know the origin of Bai Xiaohei's family background and identity. Now they heard Bai Xiaohei say that this dilapidated small village is their hometown, and everyone turned to look at the small village again.

To tell the truth, it can't be described as dilapidated here, because dilapidated is not enough to describe the appearance here. There are about 30 houses in the whole small village, at least half of which have collapsed or damaged. The outer walls of some buildings are covered with moss, and the uneven dirt roads are also covered with weeds. Obviously, few people move around.

"Miss Bai! Is this really your hometown?" Liu Qingxia stared at the dilapidated village in front of her, her eyes full of amazement, and then looked at Bai Xiaohei and asked.

Bai Xiaohei didn't speak any more. After nodding, he raised his feet and walked towards the village. When he saw Bai Xiaohei walking inside, everyone hurried to follow. Lin Feng dragged the horse behind. In this way, the people entered the small village.

Although there are people in the village, there are not many, and these people are yellow and skinny, ragged and look like refugees. Just when Bai Xiaohei and others entered the village, an old man in his 60s came right in front of him. The old man is skinny and skinny, and his upper body is bare, because he is so thin that he can see his ribs one by one, The old man has a strong hunchback, clutching a broken wooden stick in his hand, and walks with shaky steps. It feels like he will fall at any time.

Perhaps hearing the footsteps, the old man subconsciously looked up at Bai Xiaohei and others who entered the village. When he saw Bai Xiaohei and his party, he was stunned, then his face showed a frightened expression, turned and ran back. Of course, the old man's legs and feet can't run much faster than different people.

He found that the old man saw his party turn around and run away. Everyone was stunned. Then Eric quickly chased up and shouted, "Hey ~! Uncle! What are you running for?"

When the old man heard Eric's cry, his body trembled again, and then his speed accelerated again. Unfortunately, the old man's legs and feet were too unskillful. This acceleration even fell directly on the ground.

Seeing the old man fall to the ground, Eric hurriedly reached out to help the old man. He asked with concern, "Sir, are you all right?"

"Don't kill me! Don't kill me! We don't have money!" the old man was pulled up by Eric and shouted in horror with his hands in front of his face. It can be seen from his trembling body that the old man was very afraid at this time.

Eric was stunned by the old man's performance. For a moment, he was at a loss. At this time, Bai Xiaohei and others also came over. In order to appease the nervous old man, long xinrou said, "don't be afraid, old man. We are not bad people."

Hearing Long Xin's words, the old man slowly put down his hand in front of his face. After seeing long Xin, the old man showed a trace of doubt in his eyes, and then asked tentatively, "aren't you those robbers?"

"Robbers? Do we look like robbers?" hearing the old man's words, Bai Xiaohei and others showed extremely strange expressions, and Lin Feng asked angrily.

Until this time, the old man should also see that Bai Xiaohei and his party are not bad people. After stopping shaking, the old man sighed and then opened his mouth and said, "young man, this is not the place you should come. Hurry up, or it will be too late!"

"Old man, what happened here? What are you afraid of? Can you tell us?" Bai Xiaohei asked.

"... why are you children disobedient? It's dangerous here. Let's go!" the old man obviously didn't want to say anything more. After picking up the stick on the ground, he waved to Bai Xiaohei and others.

"Old man, we are all monks. If you have any difficulties, you can tell us. I'm not sure we can help!" Long Xin continued. She is a character with a strong thirst for knowledge. The more the other party doesn't say, the more curious she becomes.

"Are you all monks?... if you don't mind, go to my house! I'll tell you everything!" the old man's eyes lit up after hearing the word monk. Then he seemed to figure out something, waved to Bai Xiaohei and others, and finally turned and walked towards the village.

Seeing that the old man asked them to go to their own home, everyone looked at Bai Xiaohei with questioning eyes, and Bai Xiaohei just nodded, and then took the lead in following the old man towards the village. When others saw that Bai Xiaohei decided to go with the old man, they all followed up.

The old man's house is in a half collapsed building not far from the entrance of the village. The building has no gate. There is only a rag curtain hanging at the door. Before Bai Xiaohei and others went in, they heard a cough inside, and the sound is still that of a young woman.

When the old man entered the house, everyone frowned. The house was so broken that there was no decent furniture. Only half of the house was covered with tiles, and the other half was covered with straw because the collapse was open. On the rice grass lay a woman dressed in patched linen. Her hair was scattered and her face was dirty, Because the hair is very long, it covers the face.

There is an extinguished fire on the ground with a broken iron pot on it. Obviously, the iron pot has been bumped. It is irregular and round. There are some blackened soup bottoms in it. In a trance, you can see some vegetable leaves floating in it.

"I don't have a chair here, you're welcome!" the old man went to the girl lying on the straw, then raised his hand and touched the girl's forehead, and then said to Bai Xiaohei and others.

There was really no place to sit here, so the people stood at the gate. Long Xin asked the old man, "old man, is this your...?"

"She is my daughter! Because she is seriously ill, she can only stay in bed. Please don't be surprised!" the old man replied with a gloomy look, and then looked at the girl lying on the straw again.

"Long Xin, help to see what the girl got?" Bai Xiaohei stared at the girl for a while, then opened his mouth and said to Long Xin.

Hearing Bai Xiaohei's words, long Xin nodded, then went to squat in front of the girl and reached out to touch the girl. Who knows, before long Xin's hand touched the girl, the girl suddenly screamed in horror and pushed Long Xin with both hands, as if she was afraid of Long Xi touching her.

Long Xin was stunned by the girl's reaction, but soon she reacted and whispered to the girl, "don't be afraid, I won't hurt you."

Maybe Long Xin's words played a role, or maybe the girl was weak and had no strength after struggling for a few times. The girl gradually slowed down the struggle and finally stopped completely.
