Chapter 136: Letting go
Chapter 136: Letting go
After dinner, the Minotaur poured two more buckets of water into the trough.
The chicken demon put the spoon in, stirred it, and then knocked on the trough to call them to drink.
Those who hadn't had their meals just now immediately rushed over.
What kind of water was that? There were oil spots floating on the surface and rice grains and vegetable leaves at the bottom. They didn't care how much these people drank. They just poured the water and left.
The water in the trough was scooped out clean, just like the food.
After eating and drinking water, there was nothing to do. Those people lay on the ground in all directions, and soon they started snoring again.
Only a few people were still sitting there, staring blankly at something they were thinking about.
Everyone was dirty and messy, and their eyes only moved occasionally, but there was no spirit in them.
Staying in such a place will make you depressed involuntarily. When you let the children out for some fresh air, they are already sleeping soundly like zombies.
I didn't perk up until I saw everyone kneeling on the ground and crawling out of the small doorway.
The old man who slept next to her yesterday seemed to be afraid of something, and kept muttering: "I won't go out, I can't go out, I won't go out, I can't go out, I won't go out..."
He crawled into the cave using his hands and feet and curled up in a corner.
The child and Cao Ping looked at each other, and instead of rushing out, they moved closer to him.
Child: “What’s wrong with you?”
"..."
Child: “What are you afraid of?”
"..."
Cao Ping: "If you don't tell me, I'll drag you out."
As he spoke, he reached out, grabbed the old man's clothes, and dragged him away for a distance.
"!"
The old man's eyes suddenly widened, and he wailed in a way that was not human: "No! I won't go out, no one can make me go out! I won't go out!"
He kicked and dug with his hands and feet in a very frightening way, and the child and Cao Ping had to step back.
A normal person suddenly became crazy?
The child said with a bit of regret.
A little boy appeared from behind her and stood beside her: "I think he has gone crazy for a long time. It's a good thing that he didn't hurt you. There's nothing to see here. Let's go out and take a walk. It's even scarier outside."
What's outside?
When the child asked her, she stopped talking and smiled and told her to go and see for herself.
Just look, the child and Cao Ping crawled out of the cave and looked outside. The first thing they saw was people, many people, pushing and shoving as they walked out.
Many people crawled out of the holes on both sides.
There was a creaking sound as dirt and debris fell from above. The child looked up and saw a wooden road. Someone must have been passing by on it.
This ground is very similar to the Lingku plank road, except that it is above the ground.
There was no time to stop, and they were almost separated by the passers-by. Cao Ping grabbed her wrist and squeezed in with her. They walked a long way in a daze, climbed several flights of stairs, and finally stepped on the ground.
The crowd suddenly dispersed, and the child and Cao Ping had the opportunity to see the surrounding environment clearly.
This place is covered with lush vegetation, a bit like a mountain forest, but not wide. In front is a cliff that reaches the sky, and I don’t know where the two sides lead to.
Behind them was a large rift valley, with a turbulent river at the bottom. The cracks on both sides were very smooth, as if they were opened at an angle and a piece was taken away, allowing sunlight to spread all over the cliffs.
The plank road above is also very neat, layer upon layer, with several holes on each layer.
A suspension bridge connected the canyon. Two minotaurs were holding very long weapons and standing on both sides of the suspension bridge. Everyone stayed away from there and it seemed that they could not move around freely.
There was also a group of people taking precautions on the opposite side.
The child saw a familiar figure and his heart immediately began to beat wildly with excitement.
Wow!
It’s Waiya!
She was about to shout when she suddenly saw Waiya punch out, bend a man over, knee him in the face, hit him on the back, throw him out, and chase him with a hammer like beating a drum.
He is full of energy.
Two people pulled her, but she still kicked him in the face...
The ups and downs of the shouting and cursing could be heard from far away.
It sounds like she has become the other person's great aunt, great-grandmother, mother, father and grandfather.
Zhuier was jumping around like an arrogant grasshopper. When he saw her being captured, he bit someone's thigh.
Two against three without any pestle.
The three men who were beaten collapsed to the ground, not knowing whether they were dead or alive.
There were two people standing next to them. They came up to them and said something, and then they followed them hand in hand.
Someone watching the excitement shouted, "Those three Wang Lao Ba brothers, how come they got beaten by a kid?"
"I just ran into a tough guy. Those who bully men and women all day long are finally getting their comeuppance."
"That's not what I meant. He's capable, and there's nothing he can't do. If the Jia couple hadn't been protected by him, they would have been taken away long ago. Some things can be overcome by enduring them. It's better than death."
"Who says it's not true? If those two kids dare to make a move, they'll be in big trouble once the Wang family brothers find out."
As they were talking, someone pushed through the crowd and rushed to the three people on the ground, shouting:
"Old Eight, Old Nine, and that guy, what's wrong with you?"
The man was tall and strong, which was not a big deal, but he became so sad and angry that he broke a large rock with one punch.
The little boy exclaimed in amazement: "He's really strong, and there are so many people. Your friend is going to be in trouble."
I know!
The child was in a bad mood.
"Don't be angry," the little boy came over with a wink, "She's pretty good, much better than you. She'll be fine. Even if something goes wrong, you can't help her."
Child:……
"Let's go." Cao Ping pulled her and walked away with big strides.
There was a stall not far away. He didn't know what it was doing, so he decided to go and take a look.
The child pushed back: "Wait a minute, Waiya is here..."
"On the other side," Cao Ping interrupted her, "and you can't fly."
Little Child: "That's right, forget it, go play."
The child looked at the suspension bridge unwillingly: "What if I can get across?"
Cao Ping released his hand and raised his chin: "Then go ahead."
"You're not going?"
"I won't die with you."
This was really unpleasant to hear, and the child ran over there. Before she got close, the Minotaur beside the suspension bridge swung the weapon in his hand at her.
The child jumped away and immediately turned around and ran away.
Fortunately, they didn't chase us.
Cao Ping looked at her calmly: "Let's go."
Little boy: "Hehe, I told you to go play, but you didn't listen. Now you almost got your head chopped off."
The child touched his neck, and the shallow bloodstain healed in an instant, leaving only a little blood on it.
Humph, I was not prepared, otherwise they couldn't hit me. If you have something to say, just talk it out, why do you have to use force?
The child pouted unhappily.
Little Child: "You're not prepared for such a fast jump?"
Child: Don’t talk, I can’t hear what they are saying.
She looked carefully at the people in the stall.
He didn't know if he was doing business, but someone came to him and asked for ointments, fasting pills or something like that.
He found it from the shelf at the back and gave it to them, then lay back in his chair.
