Chapter 184 Little Beggar
Chapter 184 Little Beggar
When he saw the plaque at the city gate, Wuyou silently said in his heart: "Ah! My little apprentice's hometown..."
Because of the heavy rain, there were almost no people in sight after entering the city. Jiang Cheng touched his stomach and said to Nie Huaisang beside him: "Huaisang, I'm hungry..."
Upon hearing this, Nie Huaisang hurriedly looked around and saw a large pavilion by the river in the distance, so he took Jiang Cheng over there.
After arriving at the pavilion, Jiang Cheng tidied up his messy clothes, while Nie Huaisang was busy running around.
Nie Huaisang kept moving his hands while asking, "Acheng, what do you want to eat?"
Jiang Cheng thought for a moment and said, "I kind of want to eat some pan-fried buns."
Nie Huaisang scratched his head when he heard this unfamiliar name and said, "I haven't heard of it. Let's do it the same way as before. Ah Cheng, you stay by my side and tell me how to cook it, and I'll cook it for you."
Wuyou heard this and said with a smile: "Okay."
After spending some time together, Wuyou discovered that Nie Huaisang was an amazing person. As long as Wuyou told him about many of the things he wanted to eat, he could actually make them almost exactly.
At first, Wuyou was a little shocked when Nie Huaisang took out the stove.
But now Wuyou is no longer surprised...
As the sky gradually darkened, a purple-dressed beauty held a beautiful puppy, stood beside a blue-dressed young man, and chanted something to him. The young man smiled and listened attentively.
Then he skillfully mixed the filling, kneaded the dough, and made the dumplings...
Soon, an alluring aroma emanated from the pavilion...
Just when Jiang Cheng was about to grab the food, Nie Huaisang stopped him. Nie Huaisang was worried that it was his first time making it and he didn't know if it was edible, so he decided to test the food for poison first.
So, Nie Huaisang picked up a pan-fried bun and put it in his mouth...
then……
Nie Huaisang screamed: "Ah! It's so hot, so hot, so hot..."
Wuyou quickly took Nie Huaisang's fan and fanned his mouth, hoping to cool him down...
Fanning himself, Wuyou couldn't help laughing: "Hahaha, Huaisang, your mouth is smoking..."
Just as the two were busy playing with abstraction, Yun Ke behind them suddenly barked
After spitting out the bun, Nie Huaisang, who was holding the water in his mouth, was like a hamster, and Wuyou was poking his bulging cheeks...
Hearing Yun Ke's barking, they both turned their heads.
Then he saw a skinny little beggar being pinned to the ground by Yun Ke.
The little beggar was holding two pan-fried dumplings tightly in his arms. The soup inside the dumplings flowed out and burned the little beggar's skinny fingers red.
Wuyou felt it was too dazzling to see this scene, so he quickly pushed Yunke away, helped the little beggar up, and reached out to take the dirty and hot bun from the little beggar's hand.
Unexpectedly, the little beggar grabbed Jiang Cheng's hand without warning and bit him hard...
Wuyou screamed out in pain subconsciously...
The next second, the little beggar was slapped away by Nie Huaisang.
Wuyou was shocked and quickly caught the little beggar and used his spiritual power to heal the little beggar.
When Nie Huaisang saw this, he secretly regretted: "Damn it, I shouldn't have been so impulsive!!"
Nie Huaisang quickly took out the medicine he had with him and gently applied it to the red teeth marks on Jiang Cheng's face.
Then he took out a wound medicine and fed it to the little beggar. The little beggar instantly became full of energy and healthier than before he was beaten...
The little beggar felt the change in himself, and immediately knelt on the ground, kowtowed, and cried:
"I'm sorry, big brother. I didn't mean to bite you. I have no choice. My brother is starving to death. Please save him, wuwuwu..."
Upon hearing this, Jiang Cheng immediately helped the little beggar up and asked where his brother was...
Jiang Cheng and Nie Huaisang no longer had the heart to eat, so they quickly packed up their things and flew to where his brother was, holding the little beggar...
Under the guidance of the little beggar, Jiang Cheng and Nie Huaisang came to a dilapidated temple far away from the city.
As soon as the little beggar landed, he shouted happily: "Brother, you are saved, brother... I met a kind immortal..." Then he rushed into the dilapidated temple.
However, Nie Huaisang and Jiang Cheng outside the door had grim expressions on their faces, staring motionlessly in the direction of the ruined temple...
Because both of them could sense that the ruined temple was filled with a thick aura of death...
The brother of the little beggar inside has been dead for a long time...
Sure enough, after a while, the heart-wrenching cry of the little beggar was heard...
Hearing the miserable cries, Jiang Cheng couldn't bear it any more and walked into the musty little temple...
But what I saw was a heartbreaking scene: a small figure lying on a slightly larger body and crying...
The corpse had obviously suffered a lot of pain before death. Its eyes were wide open and it stared at the hole in the roof...
When the little beggar saw Jiang Cheng, his eyes suddenly burst into infinite hope. The little beggar knelt and crawled over.
She grabbed Jiang Cheng's clothes and begged, "Big brother, big brother, please, please save my brother, even at the cost of my life, please, please..."
Jiang Cheng looked reluctant, but he could only say: "When a person dies, the light goes out. Sorry, it's too late."
Upon hearing this, the little beggar cried even harder, mumbling, "It's all my fault... It's all my fault..."
As he said that, he ran straight towards the pillar beside him...
Fortunately, Jiang Cheng was quick to stop him. Seeing that the child was too excited, Jiang Cheng cast a spell to make the little beggar fall asleep.
Nie Huaisang, who had been watching silently at the door, came in and put the little beggar on the giant Yun Ke's back.
Standing next to Jiang Cheng
Wuyou gently lifted the rags from the dead beggar's body, and a foul smell made Wuyou frown.
Looking further, there was a deep whip mark on the child's body, which was already oozing pus and rotting, and his right arm was completely black and rotten.
The most shocking thing was the child’s fingers. Three of them were already rotten…
Jiang Cheng and Nie Huaisang saw shock in each other's eyes: "What kind of beast is this, to do such a cruel thing to a child..."
Jiang Cheng and Nie Huaisang finally used a cleansing talisman on the child, changed him into clean clothes, and let him leave in a dignified manner...
The two found a good place for the dead beggar and buried him there. Wuyou used Nie Huaisang's guqin and the soul-asking technique he learned from Lan Xichen to ask the child's soul.
Unfortunately, the child is too young and his soul is too broken to ask anything. We can only put our hope on the sleeping little beggar, hoping that he can know something.
Finally, Wuyou played a requiem for the beggar with the Wuyou Qin, asking him to forget his hatred, telling him that he would take care of his brother, and then letting him go to reincarnate with peace of mind...
When the little beggar woke up, Jiang Cheng and Nie Huaisang saw that he was no longer seeking death as before. They took the little beggar to bid farewell to their brother.
Then Jiang Cheng had time to slowly ask the little beggar about his brother...
In the end, Jiang Cheng and Nie Huaisang finally knew who the beast was. For Wuyou, this answer was unexpected but reasonable...
