There was a sound of heavy and hurried footsteps, accompanied by a man's panting. Ye Wuchen turned his gaze to one side, and found a tall man running towards him with a big bamboo basket on his back, sweating profusely. He looked young, with a rough face, and his physique was a bit too tall and brawny.
Seeing the old man, he quickened his pace a little bit, then put the big basket on the ground out of breath, and hummed half-deadly: "Grandpa, the fruits are full, I have already carried it for three days Ten laps, today's task..."
His voice stopped suddenly, his eyes fixed on Ye Wuchen, and after a long time he jumped up as if seeing a monster: "You you you you... how did you wake up!?"
Ye Wuchen smiled at him and asked, "Grandpa Chu, who is this?"
"Hehe. This is my grandson, who just turned 20 this year. He was the one who took care of you when you were in a coma all these years. When a person who has been sleeping under his nose for ten years suddenly wakes up, he doesn't react like this. Too much."
Ye Wuchen stood up, nodded and said: "My name is Ye Wuchen, I have troubled you all these years."
The tall man looked him up and down suspiciously at first, and then patted his own head embarrassingly. He also felt that his actions just now were a little rude, so he smiled honestly and said: "My name is Chu Jingtian... Uh, this The name is not very pleasant, or you can call me Da Niu like them."
Chu Jingtian, who has the reputation of shocking the sky, is he an ordinary person.
"Alright then, I'll call you Brother Big Niu from now on." Ye Wuchen said with a smile. Although this person is a bit careless, it is easy to win the favor of others.
"Hey..." Chu Jingtian smiled a little embarrassedly, not very good at talking. "Then... Brother Ye, I'll finish dividing up the fruits first, and then I'll chat with you or something."
He turned around, took a light breath, and roared: "Everyone, come quickly, your big brother is back!"
Caught off guard, Ye Wuchen was shaken by the roar, his eardrums buzzed, and his gaze towards Chu Jingtian changed slightly—there is such an astonishing person in this small sealed place.
His voice undoubtedly spread far and wide. Immediately, there was a sound of chaotic footsteps not far away, and a large group of children rushed over, holding various utensils in their hands. There are baskets, small baskets and stone bowls. Then they consciously lined up in order in front of Chu Jingtian, shouted "Brother Daniel" in unison, and looked at him eagerly.
Chu Jingtian straightened his back, and smiled embarrassedly: "I'm really sorry everyone, I accidentally fell into a ditch before, and it took me a long time to come out, so I came back a bit late today. Come, come, come... Everyone has a share, no Smaller than usual."
The old man smiled and looked at the scene in front of him. This is one of his daily compulsory courses. It is not only the exercise of his physical fitness and endurance, but also the cultivation of his mind. Although members of his Chu family don't have to be the most good people, they must not be evil people.
Chu Jingtian kept putting two in one hand into the small basket in front of him, and then watched them leave happily, with satisfaction and excitement on his face, obviously taking pleasure in it. Ye Wuchen watched quietly, thinking about his own life. Suddenly, he noticed a dodgy gaze behind a tree not far away, he turned his head to look, met a pair of crystal clear eyes and a white shadow, and was slightly startled. And that gaze immediately ran away as if frightened, and hid behind the tree, but the person did not leave, as if waiting for something.
Finally, when the last child yelled "Goodbye, Brother Daniel" and left happily, Chu Jingtian rubbed his hands, as if he still had more to say. Very early on, he took this burden as a kind of enjoyment. When he was five years old, he was brought here by his grandfather, so he had no chance to be contaminated by the filth of the outside world, and his heart was too pure.
At this moment, the petite white shadow finally came out quietly from behind the tree, lowered its head and came to Chu Jingtian, and timidly called out: "Brother Big Niu."
Ye Wuchen was attracted by her from the moment she came out, and his eyes followed her all the time. She looks to be only ten years old, and her whole body can only be described as exquisite. She was wearing a snow-white long dress, crumpled. But never messy. What caught his attention was her long snow-white hair and two interlaced long scars on her face.
Two intersecting scars extend from the left and right foreheads to the right and left ears respectively, destroying the entire face horribly.
Chu Jingtian hurriedly reached out to the basket again, but soon his expression froze, and he only took out a big apple-like fruit. He touched his head embarrassingly, and said apologetically, "I'm sorry, little white-haired fruit. Sister, I seem to have counted wrongly today, and this is the only one left. But this is the biggest one."
The girl took it carefully, and smiled sweetly: "It's okay, thank you Big Brother."
She shyly glanced at Ye Wuchen who had been looking at him, then ran away quickly, out of his sight.
Seeing her Linglong back gradually disappearing into the night, Ye Wuchen was in a daze, and didn't look back for a long time.
"She is?" Ye Wuchen asked in a daze.
The old man glanced at him and said, "She appeared here a week ago, and she probably broke in by accident and couldn't get out. It's just... well, as you can see, her face is too scary, and her white hair is very scary. It looks like the white hair that was only found in the snow wolf clan, the most ferocious race back then, so everyone here rejects her, and anyone who sees her will beat her away. However, she has no evil spirit on her body, and she is so young. She has no self-sustaining ability at all, and perhaps the fruit she takes here every night is her only food."
Ye Wuchen didn't say a word, stood up and walked towards the direction where the girl disappeared before. Chu Jingtian shouted in confusion: "Brother Ye, where are you going? I still want to hear about you."
Ye Wuchen acted as if he had never heard of it, and soon disappeared from their sight. Chu Jingtian scratched his head and muttered, "Could it be that you went to have a rest?"
The trickle was gurgling, and the white-haired girl squatted quietly by the stream, washing the fruits in her hands with the clear water. In the cool night wind, her petite figure was lonely and lonely, which made people feel pitiful.
After washing, she stood up and wiped the water on the clothes. Suddenly aware of something, she subconsciously turned around, and then looked at the figure approaching her at a loss. She recognized that this was the person who had been looking at him before.
Ye Wuchen walked slowly, walked in front of her, and just looked into those eyes quietly. It was these star-like eyes that conquered him. Lonely, panic, confused, helpless, all kinds of emotions fluctuate in this pair of star eyes.
