"Mom, mom, come and look, there are two people here! Ah, they are covered in blood."
A clear, childish female voice rang out in the valley, attracting a simply dressed woman to come hurriedly to check.
The scene before her stunned her and she took a breath.
The two men floated up from the swamp, their bodies covered in mud, their clothes torn and revealing bloody wounds underneath.
Judging from their figures, one should be a man and the other a woman, both of them are not very old, but their faces are covered with mud so it is difficult to see clearly.
The woman looked around nervously for a few times, then looked at her daughter, "Xiao Nuo, where did you find these two people?"
The little girl named Xiao Nuo tilted her head and said, "They just floated up from the mud! Xiao Nuo was playing with earth dragons here, and suddenly they popped out of the swamp."
"Mom, my brothers and sisters are covered in blood. Can we save them?"
The woman hesitated. It was not because she was cruel, but because they, mother and daughter, were living such a hard life now.
But when she saw the little girl's eyes, which were as clear as a stream, the woman still sighed. She couldn't just stand by and watch the girl die without helping.
The small valley is isolated from the outside world and sparsely populated because there is no food.
But in this valley, a simple thatched hut was built, where Xiao Nuo and her daughter lived.
Xiao Nuo is already nine years old this year, but he is extremely thin and has a sallow complexion. He looks like a sick child under six years old.
She was small and weak, with short arms and legs, but at this moment she was taking care of the two people on the bed very seriously.
The one on the left is a little brother, who judging by his figure should be only thirteen or fourteen years old. Xiao Nuo wiped the mud off his face and body, but he shivered with fear.
Because there were hideous bloodstains on this little brother's face, which looked like red worms crawling on it, so scary.
Moreover, even though the little brother was sleeping soundly, Xiao Nuo had a creepy feeling and didn't want to get close to him.
Xiao Nuo patted his chest and came to his unconscious sister.
The freshly washed towel was used to wipe away the dried mud on her face bit by bit.
When the girl's face slowly appeared in the dim light, Xiao Nuo let out a scream and widened his eyes in disbelief.
Hearing Xiao Nuo's scream, the woman who was preparing dinner outside hurried in. Just as she was about to ask her what happened, her eyes fell on the girl's face and she was also shocked.
After a long while, Xiao Nuo finally stuttered, "Mother... Mother, this sister... is so, so beautiful! Too beautiful, like the goddess in the legend, no, she is prettier than the goddess."
Yes, the girl lying on the bed was dirty and her clothes were tattered, but she was really beautiful.
Given the culture of Xiao Nuo and her daughter, they didn't even know what words to use to describe such a look. They only knew that as women, they were completely stunned as they watched.
After a while, Xiao Nuo's mother came to her senses. She approached the girl cautiously, felt her breath, and touched her forehead.
There is no fever and the body is warm. Fortunately, I am still alive.
Suddenly, Xiao Nuo leaned over the bed and screamed, "Oh, Mom, my beautiful sister is crying! Is she in pain? Xiao Nuo, can you blow her?"
When the woman lowered her head, she saw crystal tears rolling down the girl's eyes and sinking into their tattered mat. (To be continued)
