"Mr. Zhang," Ren Xiaosu said politely to Zhang Jinglin, "I hope you can allow Liu Yuan and Sister Xiaoyu to live in the school while I'm away."

Zhang Jinglin looked at Ren Xiaosu in doubt and asked, "Are you sure you have to go?"

Ren Xiaosu thought for a while and said: "I'm afraid there is no way to refuse them anymore. You have also seen the end of Zhang Baogen. Now you and I have the power of life and death in the hands of this group of people in the barrier. If I take the initiative to go and encounter danger Avoid it in time, or even sacrifice others to save yourself, but if I stay here and refuse them, I'm afraid they will use despicable methods to greet us."

"Is there no better choice?" Zhang Jinglin asked.

"I'm afraid not." Ren Xiaosu shook his head: "But Mr. Zhang, don't worry, maybe they are all dead, and I may not be in trouble."

In fact, Ren Xiaosu just didn't want to wade into the muddy water at first, but now with his physical fitness and experience in the wilderness, Ren Xiaosu wasn't worried that he wouldn't be able to come back.

Moreover, the return conditions given by the other party did not satisfy him. If he, Yan Liuyuan, and sister Xiaoyu had three places to enter the refuge barrier, it would be almost the same, otherwise it would be meaningless.

He really wanted to enter the refuge barrier, but he couldn't leave Yan Liuyuan and Miss Xiaoyu alone.

What Ren Xiaosu didn't tell Yan Liuyuan was that for some reason, when he tossed and turned one night after gaining the ability, he also longed for the bigger world outside.

This market town was too small, so small that he could see the end at a glance from a high place, and so small that he could hear the voice of a widow scolding the hooligans in the west from the east of the market town.

He also wanted to go out and see.

The only thing Ren Xiaosu was worried about now was what would happen if he left the safety of Sister Xiaoyu and Yan Liuyuan.

If Zhang Jinglin didn't agree to host Xiaoyu and Yan Liuyuan, then Ren Xiaosu couldn't leave with the band no matter what.

"It seems that you know what you are thinking. You can let your sister Xiaoyu and Liuyuan stay here at night, and I will clean up the house for them," Zhang Jinglin nodded. In the wilderness, Zhang Jinglin felt that the people in the whole market town were more intelligent than Ren Xiaosu. Experience, so he, the school teacher, saw that the other party had his own confidence, so he didn't say anything.

Ren Xiaosu heaved a sigh of relief when Zhang Jinglin agreed to come down: "Sir, I have the 5,000 yuan I saved recently, you can accept it, and it should only be the boarding fee for Miss Xiaoyu and Yan Liuyuan."

"Take it back," Zhang Jinglin shook his head and said, "I am the teacher of the school, and I only charge tuition fees."

"Sir, don't say no, it's fine to buy some cigarettes," Ren Xiaosu said.

Zhang Jinglin hesitated for a moment: "Ahem, then I'll charge 1,000, it's just the rent."

Ren Xiaosu didn't bother anymore, and immediately ordered a thousand for Zhang Jinglin. He is usually stingy, but he never hesitates about big things. Ren Xiaosu never hesitates to give Yan Liuyuan the money he should spend.

Ren Xiaosu planned to hand over the remaining four thousand to Sister Xiaoyu directly.

This money cannot be handed over to Yan Liuyuan, in case Miss Xiaoyu has any thoughts about the money, at worst she will take the money and walk away, but she will not be malicious towards Yan Liuyuan.

But if the money is on Yan Liuyuan, then Yan Liuyuan's safety will be threatened.

At this time, Ren Xiaosu still had a little bit of guard against Miss Xiaoyu. This kind of thinking may be wrong, and I am a little sorry for Miss Xiaoyu, but this must be the least regrettable and painful choice.

To be honest, Ren Xiaosu still felt that their time with Miss Xiaoyu was too short, not that he now doubted what purpose Miss Xiaoyu had.

It's just that he has struggled and struggled on this wasteland for so long, and he has fought for his life every day, and every step seems to be bleeding the ground.

In such a life, how could it be possible to easily entrust fate to someone who has only known each other for a few days.

Ren Xiaosu took Yan Liuyuan back to the clinic to pack his things. He didn't expect that the "new home" he had just obtained would be idle again. Wang Fugui said beside him, "Don't worry, I will take good care of this yard for you, and I will never let other people take care of it." People live in."

"Okay, thank you in advance," Ren Xiaosu said.

"Actually, you don't have to let them live in the school. What are you afraid of when I'm here?" Wang Fugui laughed.

"Aren't I just on guard against you?" Ren Xiaosu ruthlessly rejected Wang Fugui's proposal. In this market town, only the school is the safest place.

Wang Fugui was not angry either, he knew what kind of person Ren Xiaosu was, so it was expected that Ren Xiaosu would guard against him together.

Sister Xiaoyu and Yan Liuyuan didn't speak during the whole process, they just packed their things in suspense. After everything was packed, Yan Liuyuan asked in a low voice, "Can't we not go?"

"I will come back. As long as the road is right, it is not dangerous. If there is any danger, I will leave them behind and run back," Ren Xiaosu said. He did not answer Yan Liuyuan's question, but directly gave all the money Stuffed it to Sister Xiaoyu: "Anyway, I have no place to spend money in the wilderness, so you can take the money."

"Well," sister Xiaoyu agreed, "bring more dry food, it's too hard to rely on luck to find food in the wilderness."

"No need," Ren Xiaosu shook his head: "If you don't consider the taste and affordability, food is still easy to find as long as you go through the tens of kilometers ahead."

But Miss Xiaoyu's words reminded Ren Xiaosu, since he can put the medicine bottle back into his mind palace at any time, can other things be allowed

Since medicine bottles are real objects with mass, it means that the palace is also a strange space.

If this is the case, Ren Xiaosu would like to secretly take away the well in the market town, after all, the water source outside is really uneasy to drink.

The so-called leaving home, probably means this

Thinking of this, Ren Xiaosu secretly tried to store a piece of cornbread in his hand into the palace, but the next moment a miraculous thing happened: the cornbread did not move...

The palace made a sound: "The storage permission has not been obtained."

Ren Xiaosu was stunned for a moment, it turned out that he could really store things in the palace, but he didn't have the qualifications yet!

He asked in his mind: "How can I obtain the storage authority?"

"I have no authority to answer," the palace fell silent, and did not answer Ren Xiaosu's question.

Ren Xiaosu suddenly felt that the palace didn't have a consciousness of its own, but was issuing specific tasks to Ren Xiaosu according to a certain logic. Its function... seemed to be only to guide Ren Xiaosu's behavior.

Ren Xiaosu placed Sister Xiaoyu and Yan Liuyuan in the school, then turned and left without hesitation. Sister Xiaoyu and Yan Liuyuan stood at the door of the school and watched Ren Xiaosu's back leaving in the dark, Yan Liuyuan suddenly asked: "Xiaoyu Sister, you actually know why he gave you all the money, right?"

"Yes," Miss Xiaoyu replied calmly.

"Then would you blame him?" Yan Liuyuan looked at Sister Xiaoyu.

"No," Miss Xiaoyu laughed.

Ren Xiaosu walked a long distance before finally turning his head to look in the direction of the school. At this time, the galaxy above the sky is vast and the stars are like a sea.

He turned around and walked firmly towards the clinic to greet the arriving guests.

Many times, people only realize at the moment when they look back on their lives that maybe they just made a small decision in a certain period of time, but that may be a fork in the road where fate changes dramatically.

Whether to go left or right is in my own mind, and then I made a decision and ran towards that unknown future without hesitation.

But at the time, I thought it was just an ordinary day in my life.
