The cake was dry and hard, especially at this time when things tend to dry out easily.
I pinched it with the knife, feeling the hardness of the food, and my teeth began to feel sore.
She looked around, trying to find some water to soak the cake before eating it, but the house was very clean and there was no kettle or anything.
Xiaodao thought for a while: "It's better to save it for dinner."
"As long as I don't think about it, as long as I practice visualization, I won't feel hungry."
As soon as he finished speaking, the door suddenly opened again.
The knife was startled, and the half piece of cake fell to the ground.
Outside the door was Luo Yan. He was holding a lunch box and saw the cake falling on the ground.
"Is this your lunch?"
Xiaodao's face suddenly felt hot and his breathing became short.
She has always been strong and unwilling to show weakness in front of others.
Now that Luo Yan had broken through him, he suddenly felt a little embarrassed and wanted to find a crack in the ground to get in.
She hurriedly knelt down to pick it up, but saw a hand picking up the cake.
Luo Yan.
Xiao Dao was stunned for a moment.
Then I watched Luo Yan blow on the cake a few times and then took a bite.
"ah?"
Xiaodao was dumbfounded.
She knew very well that her cake was hard and tasteless.
Just all dough and then a little bit of sugar.
How could Luo Yan eat something so unpalatable?
Luo Yan bit into the cake, put down the lunch box and said, "Let's exchange."
"I've already eaten your food, so you can eat mine."
Then push the lunch box in front of the knife.
Xiaodao opened his mouth to say something.
Luo Yan said with a cold face: "Eat all the food, and then I will teach you the fighting skills and give you 20 minutes."
Then in front of the knife, he ate the whole half of the cake.
Then he left.
When Xiao Dao was left alone, the girl felt as if there was sand in her eyes, so she wiped her eyes.
Then he opened the lunch box and ate hungrily.
In the afternoon, Luo Yan spent two hours teaching Xiaodao some fighting skills.
Compared to training, Xiao Dao is indeed more talented in striking skills.
Luo Yan only needed to demonstrate once or twice, and she learned a lot, as if she had the ability to 'memorize'.
Two hours later.
Xiaodao was covered in sweat. He took the water handed over by Luo Yan and drank it non-stop.
Luo Yan pointed to the bathroom: "Go take a shower, and then take me to your 'secret base'."
The Mole Gang's home base is underground. There is an extremely complex underground network underneath this base. Some places have obviously been artificially modified, making it even more complicated.
Luo Yan felt that even if he drove Shenzang, it would be easy to get lost here.
Xiao Dao naturally knew the way, and she could walk back even with her eyes closed.
Following the girl around, Luo Yan's eyes suddenly opened up when the two came out from behind a metal fence that separated the inside and outside.
Came to a larger space.
There are simple houses here, some of which don't even have a house. They just use wooden boards on some huge pipes to serve as beds.
"Sister Xiaodao is back."
A child playing nearby screamed happily when he saw the knife, but when he saw Luo Yan, he took a few steps back in fright.
However, his voice attracted the attention of Ye Fei and other children.
Ye Fei's house is a carriage with the wheels removed. I don't know how he got the carriage in. Others were in the carriage and jumped out of the window when they heard the sound.
"Mr. Luo, you are here."
Ye Fei happily introduced everyone: "Come here, everyone, this is Mr. Luo."
"It was him who killed the giant beast yesterday, saved Captain Gong Shou, and saved us!"
A group of children immediately gathered around, raising their heads and looking at Luo Yan curiously.
The youngest of these children is only five or six years old, and the oldest is only eleven or twelve years old.
Some were wearing very thin clothes, and some were carrying a sleeping baby on their backs.
When Luo Yan came, he had already thought that the children of the 'Mole Gang' might have a hard time, but now that he saw it with his own eyes, his heart sank.
The world is difficult, and the most difficult thing is the children, especially these orphans without fathers and mothers.
These children have no ability to survive. I am afraid they are all supported by older children like Ye Fei.
This is no wonder why Ye Fei can't concentrate when practicing. He is probably thinking about how to keep these children alive all the time.
For them, even if they are alive, they need to do their best.
"Big brother, my name is Guan Hai. When I grow up, can I fight giant beasts like you?"
"Brother, your eyes are so red. Are you sick?"
"Big brother, thank you for saving us, I'll treat you to some candy."
Surrounding Luo Yan, these children chatted like a flock of sparrows.
Luo Yan answered each of their questions as best he could and took the trouble.
After a while, the children asked Ye Fei to drive them away. Then the young leader said expectantly: "Mr. Luo, can you come to my house?"
"My brother, he wants to meet you."
When Luo Yan came to Ye Fei's 'house', he saw a small bed inside.
Sitting on the bed was a boy of about ten years old. The boy was very thin and had yellow hair. He was looking at other children outside the car window with envy in his eyes.
Ye Fei said softly: "Axiang, this is Mr. Luo I told you."
The boy named Ye Xiang turned his head, his eyes twinkling. Excited, excited, scared, complex expressions.
"Luo, hello Mr. Luo."
The boy said sensibly: "I'm sorry, I can't get out of bed to salute you."
He said, then lowered his head with some humiliation.
Ye Fei said sadly: "A few years ago, the base was attacked."
"Our father died in that attack. Although our two brothers survived, Axiang lost his legs."
"I swore that I would make enough money and install a pair of prosthetic legs for Xiang so that he could move freely like a normal child."
"But I'm so useless. Until now, I have..."
Ye Xiang said: "Brother, this is fine for me."
"I don't like to move. I hate sweating. Reading in bed every day like this is pretty good."
Ye Fei forced a smile: "In short, we hate the giant beast."
"Axiang heard that you killed the giant beast yesterday and wanted to see you."
"That's why I took the liberty of inviting you to play with us."
"But obviously, we don't have much fun here."
Luo Yan glanced at the young leader, then walked over, squatted down by the bed, put his hand on the quilt, and felt the emptiness under the quilt.
He looked at Ye Xiang: "The giant beast also took away a lot of things from my hands, so whenever I have a chance, I will kill one when I see one."
Ye Xiang probably remembered the sad past, and the ten-year-old child could no longer pretend to be strong, so he burst into tears.
