Chapter 226 The Love of Life (2)

Xia Mubing stayed in the hotel for four days. On the third day, Wen Er bought him a ticket for next week. He had to stay in Star City for a few more days.

Xia Mubing has been wandering around Star City these days, and does not go to restaurants to eat. When he is hungry, he spends a few copper dollars to buy some steamed buns. Despite this, he was still stared at by the blind Xiao Xiao.

In the dark and windy alley at night, Xia Mubing was surrounded by several Xiao Xiaoxiao who said "I am not a good person, I am very vicious" written all over their faces. If they knew better, they would hand over the money to the uncle.

Then Jiang Feng witnessed Xia Mubing's 1-on-5 action scene.

The punches hit the flesh, and the attacks were extremely ruthless. After five nights of small robbery, they were robbed instead. In the end, they lay half-dead on the ground with only the air coming in but not out. Xia Mubing still had the strength and time to straighten his sleeves and take away the money they were carrying. After plundering everything, they walked away.

On the fourth day, Xia Mubing had no money except a few copper coins. He had to dig out the baggage under the big tree and get some silver coins.

Before leaving the city, he passed by a steamed bun shop. As if he remembered something, he stopped and bought 5 meat buns.

One meat bun costs two copper yuan, and the merchant also gave Xia Mubing a piece of oil paper to wrap the five meat buns.

Xia Mubing carried the meat buns and left the city.

He did not go to the big tree where the things were buried, but went straight to the mountain temple where he had taken shelter from the rain.

The mountain temple is still the same as before, half of it has collapsed, it is very dilapidated, there is no incense, and from the outside it is impossible to tell that anyone lives inside.

As soon as he stepped into the temple, Jiang Feng smelled a strong and disgusting smell.

It smelled like the feces and urine in the cesspool fermented after mixing for a few days. Don't ask him how he knew it. When Jiang Feng was a child, the village still had an old-fashioned toilet, and he once fell into it when he went to the toilet.

"Who?" The young girl inside was still there, but her voice became very weak and weak.

"Me." Xia Mubing said, walking in.

The smell inside was even stronger, coming from the young girl. Jiang Feng suspected that she might not have moved out of her home in a few days.

The young girl's face turned pale, and she was slumped on the hay pile with no strength. She looked like she hadn't eaten for several days.

The young girl recognized Xia Mubing and was not afraid this time: "What are you doing here?"

"Where is your brother?" Xia Mubing asked, throwing the oil paper bag on the hay pile one meter away from her. "You gave me half a pancake a few days ago, and I will give you 5 buns in return."


The young girl didn't mention her brother at this time. She was really hungry. Her eyes lit up when she looked at the oil paper bag in front of her, and she swallowed a mouthful of saliva.

"Can you please throw it over?" the young girl said.

He picked up the oil paper bag and threw it to her hand.

The young girl picked up the oil paper bag and opened it eagerly. She picked up the still warm bun and stuffed it into her mouth, devouring it.

Xia Mubing stood by and watched her eat quietly without leaving.

The young girl ate two buns in a row. When she looked up and saw that Xia Mubing was still there, she subconsciously said: "Why don't you leave? My brother will be there soon..."

After saying this, she was stunned. She knew very well that her brother would not come back.

Xia Mubing was not a talkative person, but he thought this girl was very interesting. She was so timid and could still live to this day.

"If your brother doesn't come back, are you going to stay here and starve to death?" Xia Mubing asked.

The young girl didn't look at him and just ate her buns.

"You haven't eaten for several days. You will die if you eat so much at once." Xia Mubing said.

"We're all going to die anyway, so it's better to hold on until we die." The young girl said, putting down the bun in her hand.

"Why don't you leave? You've also seen that I have nothing here. You can afford the meat buns and it's definitely not bad for me. I'm a paralytic. Even if you sell me, you won't be able to sell me for the price. It will only be a waste of you." Food." The young girl said.

paralytic?

Jiang Feng suddenly understood why this girl was unwilling to leave the ruined temple even though she was about to starve to death, and why she had such an unpleasant smell.

She was paralyzed and couldn't move. She had no one to take care of her and could only wait to die.

Xia Mubing didn't leave.

"Why don't you leave? Do you really want to sell me?" the young girl said, "I told you that I can't sell it for a price. If I could sell it, Mother Chen would have sold me long ago."


"You look a bit like someone I know." Xia Mubing said.

Jiang Feng:...

The beginning of this familiar romantic drama...

The young girl suddenly laughed, extremely sarcastically: "Then you must have seen me in the Red Sleeve Pavilion."

Xia Mubing has been walking around Star City these days, and Jiang Feng, who is following him, has seen Red Sleeve Pavilion more than once.

It was the most exclusive brothel in the entire Star City.

It's a gold-selling cave that spends a lot of money.

Xia Mubing turned around and left, and the conversation ended.

Jiang Feng really couldn't figure out what Xia Mubing wanted to do. After delivering the buns to this girl, he had an awkward chat, and then left decisively when it felt like some exciting plot was about to unfold. It seemed that the previous awkward chat was just for the sake of awkwardness. Same.

Xia Mubing returned to the big tree, dug the hole again, took a dozen pieces of ocean and a small yellow croaker, and buried the baggage back.

He did not enter the city and returned to the mountain temple.

When the young girl saw Xia Mubing, she felt as if she had seen a ghost and said, "Why are you here again?"

Xia Mubing walked straight to her and picked her up: "You need to see a doctor."

The young girl was still struggling with her hands, but she stopped struggling after hearing his words, and her tone was very low: "How do you know."

"You will die if you stay here any longer."

"If you die, die. Aren't there many people dying these days? I have no money and no family, so I deserve to die."

"I have money."

"You are sick."

Jiang Feng:? ? ?

Xia Mubing carried the young girl all the way into the city without attracting anyone's attention. There are many things to do in this world, even killing people on the street, and no one will care.

“Mr.

"Send two buckets of hot water, get her some clothes, and then go find a doctor." Xia Mubing said.

"Okay, are you still a foreign doctor?" Wen Er asked.

Although traditional Chinese medicine has been suppressed to a great extent these days, with newspapers shouting every day that traditional Chinese medicine is a feudal superstition, ordinary people still have to go see a doctor if they have a headache and a fever and are about to die. They can't afford to go to foreign hospitals.

"I don't want a foreign doctor," the young girl said.

Xia Mubing carried her back to the room and put her on the bed.

"You're not afraid that my filthy body will soil your bed." The young girl said, "What are you trying to do? I have no money and am a paralytic. Even if you sell me to the lowest-grade secret prostitution parlor to meet those mothers, You won't want it either. All the money I spend is wasted. If you want to return my half of the pancake, the five buns are enough. If you exchange half a pancake for five meat buns, people all over Star City will be waiting in line to trade with you. .”

"You look a lot like someone I know." Xia Mubing said.

"I'm afraid it's someone you like." The young girl said.

"Yes, that's the person I like." Xia Mubing said.

The young girl burst out laughing and said, "I think you have watched too many plays, and you have become stupid."

"What's your name?" the young girl asked.

"Xia Mubing."

"My name is Rouge."

After dinner, I started to pay off the debt, come on, come on, place a bet at the beginning of the day to guess how much I can pay back today. ​
