The night after the rain was extremely dark.
But Li Changyi, Guo Nanjun, and Xiaoqianjun are not ordinary people, and their eyesight is extraordinary.
They clearly saw the withered bones of a six or seven-year-old girl lying in the corner of the deserted pavilion not far behind the little girl.
The withered bones had turned white, with no trace of flesh and blood remaining.
However, the clothes on it were exactly the same as those worn by the little girl in front of me.
Then combine the two ages.
More importantly, the little girl in front of me is a soul!
The answer is self-evident.
Looking at the innocent and expectant little girl in front of them, Li Chaoyi and Guo Nanjun felt a little heavy.
Even Xiao Qianjun's face was wrinkled, feeling very sad.
"Brother, my father and mother have already set off, right?"
Seeing that the three of them were silent, the little girl asked again.
Li Xiangyou thought for a moment and Wen Xu replied: "It's rainy today and the road is slippery. They said they would pick you up tomorrow."
"Let you wait in the pavilion for one more night."
"Tomorrow, they will take you to the county seat and see a doctor, and your illness will be cured."
The little girl nodded obediently: "Yes, I understand. When dad went hunting in the mountains the year before last, he broke his leg. It hurts when it rains, so it's hard to walk."
"My mother-in-law has to raise silkworms and weave cloth, and she also has to take care of her younger brothers and sisters. She can't leave."
"I will wait here, Guaiguai, and I won't go anywhere."
Guo Nanjun turned his face away, unable to bear to look at it.
Xiao Qianjun also tugged at the hem of his senior brother's clothes, his big eyes filled with tears, almost overflowing.
Li Changyi understood what Xiao Qianjun meant and stepped forward to touch the little girl's head.
He smiled and asked: "Xiaozhi, are you hungry? Do you want to eat something first? After you are full, you can meet your father and mother tomorrow before you have the strength to go to the county seat?"
As he spoke, he took out a big bun and a pot of warm water and handed them to the little girl.
The little girl named Ning Xiaozhi was a little hesitant. She must have remembered the teachings of her father and mother. If you don't have money, you can't just eat other people's food.
But when I saw the delicious big meat buns in front of me, I was a little greedy.
She hasn't eaten for a long time.
And it is true that only when you are full and have strength can you go to the county town with your father and mother-in-law tomorrow.
This place is thirty miles away from the county seat, so it's not easy to walk.
"Eat, your mother-in-law asked us to bring this, specially prepared for you."
The little girl finally stopped hesitating and said with a sweet smile: "Thank you, big brother!"
After taking the bun, she nibbled it in small bites, eating it deliciously and carefully, for fear that the meat filling would fall out.
From time to time, she stopped to take a look at Li Changyi and the others. She seemed a little embarrassed to see that the eldest brother, eldest sister, and little sister had no food, and she was the only one eating.
After finishing the buns, she took another sip of water.
He touched his belly and said with a bright smile: "I'm full. Thank you, big brother. I can walk all the way to the county seat tomorrow without resting!"
Li Xianyue touched her head again.
After eating and drinking, the little girl's figure became more stable.
Because what Li Xiangyi brought out was not the real steamed buns and water, but what he used to conjure up the steamed buns and water.
The little girl's soul was already very weak, like a weak candle in the wind.
If some vitality is not channeled, she may dissipate at any time.
"Brother, are you from outside? Your accent doesn't sound like we are from Huqiu County. Are you from the capital?"
After "eating", the little girl gained strength and began to care about her elder brother and the others.
The capital she spoke of was not the capital of the Wei Dynasty, but the capital of Qian Kingdom, which, like Huqiu County, was in the west.
Just as Li Chaoyi was about to answer, he saw Guo Nanjun wink at him.
He immediately said: "We are indeed outsiders, but we are not from the capital, but from a place further than the capital."
"Xiao Zhi, you play with the little sister for a while, and the eldest sister and I will go outside the pavilion to feed the horse."
The little girl nodded obediently: "Well, if you need help, big brother, just call me. I've been helping my mother collect grass and feed pigs since I was a child. I'm very capable."
"Okay, I'll call you if necessary."
Xiao Qianjun played with the little sister in the pavilion.
Li Chaoyi and Guo Nanjun came outside the pavilion and set up a barrier where the little girl couldn't see it.
"Sir, Xiaozhi was clearly abandoned by her parents!" Guo Nanjun said bluntly as soon as the barrier was drawn.
It was obvious that these words had been held in her stomach for a while.
Li Xianyue nodded: "Probably."
Little girl Xiaozhi is so innocent that she is still waiting for her father and mother-in-law to come to her with money and take her to the county town to see a doctor.
Shouldn't lie.
When Xiaozhi's parents, Ning Dazhu and Hu Cuihua, and Li Chaoyi took shelter from the rain at their home, they said that their daughter was lost.
They spoke so sincerely at that time, and even took out a red headband belonging to their daughter.
He said that if he met their daughter, he must remember to send them a letter and they would go find her daughter.
Now that I think about it, they are such a good couple.
The acting skills of this couple are simply deeper than those of the actresses and old students in the Liyuan.
They should not only say this to the three of them, but also to all the outsiders passing through Ningjia Village and the people in the village.
"How can there be such parents in the world?" Guo Nanjun said angrily, "Even if Xiaozhi is sick, if she thinks of a way and raises some money, she can always be cured. Why abandon her?"
Doctors from hundreds of schools of the Three Religions, like farmers, are highly respected by the world. All countries in the world, big or small, have cooperation with major medical schools.
In addition, other sects and sects also have magical powers of healing. In today's world, it is relatively easy for the people of Dawn to cure their illnesses.
Just spend some medical money.
But Ning Dazhu and Hu Cuihua abandoned Xiaozhi.
"I'm going to find them!" Guo Nanjun said with anger.
Xiaozhi was so well-behaved and sensible, and she waited wholeheartedly for her parents to come back to her. She waited until she turned into a withered skeleton, but they never came.
She wanted to help her get an explanation.
"I'll go."
"No, I'm going too!"
Guo Nanjun, who is dressed in red, tall and handsome, rarely refutes Li Xianyue's decision.
Li Xianyue thought for a moment and said, "That's okay, but you have to obey my instructions and not be impulsive."
"good!"
Then Li Changyi sent a message to Xiao Qianjun, asking her to stay in the pavilion and talk to sister Xiaozhi. He and Guo Nanjun went to Ningjia Village.
It took more than an hour on horseback to get from Ningjia Village to Thirty Mile Pavilion during the day.
Returning this time, Li Qingyue rode the fast wind and arrived quickly.
Ningjia Village is peaceful at night.
On the west side of the village, a family is closest to the village entrance.
After dinner, the male host Ning Dazhu was repairing hunting equipment in the yard and preparing to go hunting in the mountains tomorrow morning.
The hostess Hu Cuihua finished bathing her children and put them to bed, then walked to the courtyard door to pour the bath water.
Just as he poured the water away and wanted to go back, he saw a scholar in blue and a tall woman in red standing not far away.
Hu Cuihua was very surprised: "My dear benefactor, why are you back?"
While taking shelter from the rain during the day, in return, Li Changyue used [Not Cold Willow Wind] to heal Ning Dazhu's old leg injury.
So she called her benefactor.
"Please come in quickly, benefactor, Miss Guo, have you had dinner? There are two bowls of porridge and a few steamed buns in the kitchen. I'll go and heat them up."
Hu Cuihua enthusiastically welcomed the two into the courtyard.
Ning Dazhu, who was repairing hunting equipment, saw his benefactor returning and stood up to make tea.
Li Changyi stopped them from working.
"My benefactor, since you don't want to eat, then you are coming back..."
"We met Twigs."
Hu Cuihua and Ning Dazhu's expressions changed at the same time.
