"ah!"
The slightly plump man cried out in pain and fell backwards, rolling off the carriage. The night pearl in his hand also rolled to the side of the road. Just when he wanted to stand up, he felt dizzy and passed out.
The two children jumped off the carriage. Yue'er quickly picked up the night pearl, wiped off the stain on it, and held it in her arms. When she looked up, she saw her brother taking out a dagger.
She was startled and asked, "Brother, what are you going to do?"
"Kill them." Mu Chen said, staring at the two people on the ground. He took out the Night Pearl, and the two people had to die. Although he had never killed anyone, he saw his elder brother kill people. However, when he held the dagger and looked at the people on the ground, he didn't dare to do it.
"elder brother."
Yue Er quickly came to his side, held his hand, and said, "Brother, let's not kill them. We have medicine. If we feed them the medicine, they will die on their own."
Hearing this, Mu Chen slowly put down the hand holding the dagger, as if relieved, and looked at Yue Er: "Do you have poison?"
"Yes." Yue'er smiled and took out a small medicine bottle from the space. She poured out two small pills and stuffed them into the mouths of the two people on the ground. Then she took out some water and gave them the water to drink.
"alright."
Yue Er said, squatting beside her with her eyes wide open, because she had pestered her eldest brother to give her the medicine, and her eldest brother only said that it was poison and would kill people, so she wanted to see what would happen to someone who died from taking poison
Seeing his cute sister squatting beside the two men and watching how they were poisoned to death, Mu Chen's mouth twitched. He felt that his sister was really careless.
"Brother, their noses and eyes are bleeding." Yue Er said in surprise, and quickly stepped back, patting her chest and saying, "How terrible, how terrible."
Mu Chen glanced at them and silently looked away. In the middle of the night, she was holding a night-shining pearl in her arms, and looking at the two corpses, it was really scary to see them bleeding from all seven orifices under the light.
"Brother, let's go back and find big brother! Big brother must be crying in worry because he can't find us." Yue'er said, holding the night pearl in one hand and holding his hand with the other.
"Well, let's go back to find big brother." Mu Chen nodded. He also knew that if they were gone, big brother would be crying anxiously. Then, he took his sister's hand and walked back the way they came.
They had the night pearl to light their way, and the faint moonlight from the full moon in the sky. They also had two people to keep them company, so they didn't feel scared along the way. Or maybe it was because they were too young and didn't know what fear was. They kept chatting as they walked.
"Brother, when can we become powerful? If we become powerful, those bad guys won't dare to catch us."
"If we practice hard, we will become very powerful." Mu Chen said.
"So will we become very powerful when we grow up?" Yue'er's soft voice rang out in the night.
"Um."
"Then when can we find the way home? Will Daddy and Mommy come to find us? What will we do if Daddy and Mommy don't know that we are here?"
