Bao Ben touched his head and said, "This is brother Jiang Bai, a friend of mine."
"Brother Jiang Bai?" Changci looked at Jiang Bai with some doubts. He had never seen this person before.
"Changci, you will follow brother Jiang Bai from now on, and he will take you out of here."
"But... I still have to save money to find my mother."
Changji doesn't really want to leave here.
Although the mines are closed, crystallized bone marrow can still be mined on the island. This kind of crystallized bone marrow can be used to make weapons that can cut iron like mud and is very expensive.
If he leaves here, he won't be able to harvest crystallized bone marrow.
"Where is his mother?" Jiang Bai looked at Baoben in confusion.
Could it be that he was already dead, but Baoben didn't want to hurt the child's heart, so he lied to him?
Homoto put his hand on Nagatsugi's shoulder and looked far away in the direction of Inazuma.
"If everything goes well, we should have arrived in Xumi."
"Xumi? How did you get there? There is a thunderstorm area on the sea outside Inazuma."
Judging from the words of Bao Bao, this Changci's mother should have left some time ago, but Jiang Bai didn't quite believe that she really left.
He can take the child away from here, but only from here. Then it will be enough to put him on Kaiji Island or Narukami Island.
With a mission on his hands, he really didn't have much energy to describe a bright future to children.
When the lie is shattered and he can no longer accept it, will he still do spiritual enlightenment work for this child?
Baoben slowly told the story about Changji's mother.
Changci's mother status is not special, but what is special is her physique.
After the evil spirit broke out, most of the people in the village were affected by the evil spirit and either got sick or went crazy.
The only exception is Changji's mother.
The power of the evil spirit did not corrode her, but flowed freely within her body. Her mind and body were not greatly affected, but she would still have constant fever and occasional bleeding.
If that were the case, it would not affect her life in the village.
Unfortunately, she was attracted by [Shen Shen].
She was regarded as a sacrifice by the crazy villagers, who tried to sacrifice her to the evil god.
She escaped once, but there was no way she could escape the second and third time.
Later, Choci's mother found him. He entrusted Choci's mother to the pirate Kitaka and asked him to send Choci's mother to Sumeru for treatment.
Although Kitaka is a pirate, he has not done anything evil.
Guilong agreed to this request and had already taken Changji's mother to sea.
"I see." Jiang Bai looked at the child named Changci, but did not ask where his father had gone.
The situation on the island is so serious, his father may have died a long time ago.
"You come with me. If you continue to stay here, you won't survive until the war stops."
Changci looked at Baoben, who nodded towards him.
If he could help it, he didn't want Changci to follow a stranger, but now he could only leave here and think about other things.
Changji is actually 12 years old. Because of the lack of food and lack of nutrition, he acts like an eight or nine-year-old child.
At this age, I already know a lot of things, otherwise I wouldn't be judged as snobbish.
"good."
He silently went back to his house to pack his things. He had very few things, a few changes of single clothes, a small photo frame with a family photo, and the rest were the crystallized bone marrow he collected.
He put all these things into the bamboo basket, covered the bamboo basket with the raincoat his mother made for him, put on a bamboo hat, took one last look at the home where he had lived for more than ten years, and locked the door.
When they find their mother, when the war subsides, they will come back.
While Chang was packing his things, Jiang Bai looked at the weak Baoben and made no secret of his threat:
"Since I have promised to take this child away, I will definitely do it. It's just after I find Wen Bing. You'd better not lie to me about Wen Bing."
Homoto bowed respectfully to him, "Except for Changci, I am the only living person left in Fimaki Village. I am not going to die soon. There is no need to hide anything. I swear to General Raiden that what I said today , all sincere, no lies.”
Jiang Bai looked at the sky. The sky was still gloomy, and there was no sudden thunderstorm coming here.
Changci quickly packed up his things and came out, saying goodbye to Baoben.
Under Bao Ben's watch, the two of them disappeared at the end of the village.
Changji also left, and now he was the only living person in the village.
Baoben covered his chest and coughed twice, ready to go back to the house to continue researching ways to treat the epidemic.
Although he knew that it would be impossible to cure the disease under such conditions, this was his and his master's obsession and it could no longer be stopped.
Just as he turned around, he noticed something at his feet.
When he looked down, he saw it was a bag.
The bag contained some dried salted fish, a few sunflower seeds, and a note.
There is a sentence written on the note:
【There is hope only if you stay alive. 】
After leaving Feimu Village, I reluctantly looked back at the village for a long time.
Next time I come back, I don’t know when it will be.
And Uncle Bao, you must live well!
Heiji turned his head to look at him and suddenly said:
"Brother Jiang Bai, you are not a wife."
"how do you know?"
Looking at Jiang Bai's clothes and accessories that were obviously not Inazuma style, Heiji said: "Feeling. I feel like Brother Jiang Bai doesn't look like our Inazuma people."
"Then your feeling is quite accurate. I am indeed not a rice wife."
"I'm from Liyue. I came to Baling Island to find a friend of mine. He once lived in your village."
"Are you looking for brother Wen Bing?"
"You know?" Jiang Bai glanced at him unexpectedly.
Changci said with reason: "Among the people in the village, he is the only one from Liyue. He has been away for a while. I know a few places where he may go. I will take my brother there!"
"Oh? Where?" Jiang Bai raised his eyebrows slightly.
He has the Sifang Jingyi, so he can definitely find Wen Bing without this kid leading the way.
But he still wanted to hear what the child had to say about why he came.
"There is a very secret cave in the narrow room of Wuxiang Blade. There are many thunder elements there, and many people will not go there. It is very suitable for hiding. About ten kilometers northeast of the village, there is an abandoned dungeon ruins. I sometimes Hiding inside; there is also a huge space under the Valley of the Snake God; there is also a snake bone mine."
Heiji listed the hidden places on the island one by one. Some of these places were discovered when he was playing in the past, and some were discovered while he was looking for treasures on the island during this time.
"Do you have a map of the island?"
Jiang Bai was not clear about the location of these places. Although he had a map given by Beidou, the map was more about the locations and outlines of several Inazuma islands, and did not record the place names and scenes on the islands.
