Blood under the starry sky

Chapter 99 Those Years

Chapter 99 Those Years

The boy returned to his nest with the little girl on his back. This is a dilapidated house, with only some broken walls, rubble everywhere, and a moldy pungent smell in the house.

The boy put the girl on the bed made of withered yellow straw, and then made a fire. He sat by the fire to keep warm. His tattered cotton-padded jacket was given to the girl. The tattered room could not completely block the wind and snow, and he was so cold that he was shaking.

The fire was burning, the temperature in the room gradually rose, and the girl's pale face gradually improved. A few hours later, the girl woke up.

She looked blankly at the surrounding environment and saw the boy huddled by the fire.

"You saved me?" The girl asked in a pale tone.

"Ye, you fainted by the roadside. If I don't save you, you will freeze to death." The boy nodded, and then the boy handed the girl a glass of hot water.

"Thank you!" The girl held the water glass and said gratefully, and then drank it carefully and slowly.

"My name is Ren Tianchen. What's your name? Where did you come from?" The boy asked.

"Name?" The girl's eyes were blank and dim, "I don't have a name, and I don't know where I come from. I've been wandering alone, and I don't know where I'm going!"

After hearing this, the boy's face became very heavy and said, "It turns out that we are all the same. After my brother's death, I have always been wandering alone."

"Brother?" The girl asked.

"Well, my brother is the gentlest person in the world, but he died two years ago in a war." The boy looked sad, thought of his dead brother, and couldn't help but feel sad.

"I'm sorry." The girl said.

"It doesn't matter. Anyway, it's been two years." The boy smiled.

After that, the boy divided half of the food he had worked hard to find with the girl. The two lonely wanderers gathered around the fire to keep warm and fell asleep unconsciously.

Until dawn, the boy found the girl snuggled in his arms and slept. He simply didn't know what to do, so he had to wait for the girl to wake up.

The snow outside is still very heavy.

"Then we'll leave. I'll give you all the clothes and those foods." The boy said to the girl.

"Are you leaving? Can you take me with you?" Hearing this, the girl asked very tightly.

"I'm sorry, I don't have that ability." The boy shook his head.

"No one has ever been so kind to me. I want to follow you." The girl's eyes are tearful and pitiful.

"No!" The boy resolutely refused, and then he left without looking back.

It's not that he is ruthless, but forced by life. He is just a seven-year-old child who struggles to survive in hunger and cold. He is often hungry. He can't even support himself. How can he bring another weak girl?

The girl was full of tears and looked at the little back that was fading away in the wind and snow.

Ren Tianchen gave his leather jacket to the girl, leaving only a thin dress. Walking in the snow, he trembled with cold and his little face was frozen purple.

"Hey, once you are a good person, the winter clothes you finally found are gone. It seems that you'd better not mind your own business too much in the future. Hiss, I'm so cold!" Ren Tianchen muttered to himself, trembling with cold, shrinking tightly, leaving a string of small footprints in the snow.

He came to the place where he often came to look for food, the garbage heap.

The garbage heap is also covered with heavy snow. His goal is to throw new garbage bags, because he knows that he is more likely to find food.

He rummaged in the garbage for a long time and finally found a piece of leftover bread, although it was only a small piece.

In addition to him, a stray orphan, there are several stray dogs in this garbage heap, which are also looking for food.

seemed to smell the bread, and several stray dogs gathered around.

Ren Tianchen quickly stuffed bread into his clothes, picked up a stick on the ground, and pretended to be fierce.

"I found it first. It's mine. If you dare to come here, I'll kill you!" Ren Tianchen waved a stick and looked at several vicious dogs around him fiercely.

Serve vicious dogs may have been scared by Ren Tianchen's momentum. After barking at him a few times, they left and went elsewhere to find food.

Ren Tianchen breathed a sigh of relief, and then quickly left here, afraid that the vicious dogs would return, because if he really did it, he could not beat them. He was just scaring them.

"Ha ha, don't go hungry." Ren Tianchen took out the hidden bread with a satisfied smile. In fact, what he wanted was very simple. He was very happy without starving and freezing.

But when he walked into an alley, several people blocked him.

In front, more than a dozen children who were not much different from him were in the way, all wearing ragged clothes and staring at him with a bad face.

"What are you going to do?" Ren Tianchen asked.

"Well, you robbed me the other day." A little beggar in a cotton-padded jacket stood up and pointed at him.

"How do you have this cotton-padded jacket on you?" Ren Tianchen said with gloomy eyes, because the cotton-padded jacket on the little beggar was given to the girl. Now that this leather jacket is on the beggar, there is only one possibility that the beggar robbed the girl's things.

"Well, it has nothing to do with you. You immediately kowtow to me and admit your mistake and hand over the food in your hand, or I will kill you today." The little beggar is very arrogant.

The boy hummed coldly, turned around and ran away. He was weak. He must have suffered a hard encounter with these beggars. He could only escape.

"Chasing him, I'm going to beat him hard today."

Suddenly, more than a dozen little beggars began to chase and block the boy in the streets and alleys, and noisy shouts spread in the alleys.

"Don't let him run away." The leading little beggar shouted as he ran. Suddenly, a dark shadow fell from the sky, a brick patted on his head, and his eyes turned black and fell down.

Ren Tianchen threw away the brick in his hand. After he led the others away, he ambushed here to kill the little beggar.

"Look at how arrogant you are?" He took off the cotton-padded jacket of the little beggar, put it on himself, and kicked the little beggar angrily.

After that, he left and disappeared into the wind and snow.

At night, he returned to his nest and didn't see the girl.

"Is she all right?!" Ren Tianchen sat by the fire in a cotton-padded jacket and thought of the girl.

That girl's things were robbed by the group of hateful beggars, so is she walking alone in the snow now? Or on which street corner are you hungry and cold, and the pedestrians on the road turn a blind eye to it? Is she still alive?

He thought a lot and felt a little guilty, but he felt that he had done nothing wrong. He kindly saved her and gave her something to eat, which was already benevolent.

In the end, he simply slept in his big cotton-padded jacket.

The heavy snow is still falling, and the whole world is white.

In this remote and poor town, everything is very peaceful, but something strange has happened recently. In the past, as soon as you go out on the street, you can see many wandering little beggars on the street, but now you can hardly see a few. The residents just say a word or two and don't care much about them, because these little Beggars often go back to their homes to steal things, so they hate these beggars.

That night, Ren Tianchen came out to look for food and saw several adults in the alley pack up a small beggar in a sack and throw it into the car to take it away.

Ren Tianchen knew that these people were human traffickers, because he had been captured by traffickers before, and finally his brother risked his life to save him.

He hurried to the police station to call the police, but the police didn't believe it and kicked him out perfunctorily. Because some children used to call fake police and fooled them many times, now the police no longer believe these stray children.

Ren Tianchen cursed at the gate of the police station before leaving angrily.

He didn't want to care about this matter, but suddenly remembered what his brother said, "Tianchen, you have to remember that when you need help, if you have the ability, you should be brave to help others."

Ren Tianchen gritted his teeth and was determined to risk it.

He chased along the tire marks left by the car in the snow, ran for hours, and came to a deserted area more than ten kilometers away from the town.

He saw the car just in front of a house. The room was brightly lit and there were several tall figures.

Ren Tianchen carefully walked over and came to the window. He happened to hear the people inside talking.

"Ha ha, I have gained a lot this time!"

"I didn't expect to catch such a beautiful little girl. I believe I can buy a good price."

Ren Tianchen carefully stretched out his head and peeped at the situation from under the window.

There are four tall men in it. They are drinking, and there are dozens of children, all tied up, with tape on their mouths, and each face is dirty with tears.

Ren Tianchen saw the little girl at a glance, because her silver hair was too conspicuous.

Then Ren Tianchen temporarily retreated and came to a big tree.

"What should I do?" He asked himself that he was just a seven-year-old child. How could he beat four strong adults? He had to find a way out.

Suddenly, he saw the car parked at the door, and an inspiration flashed in his mind.

He sneaked to the side of the car and saw a barrel of gasoline in the back of the car, so he spilled gasoline around the car, and then spilled all the way to the big tree where he had hidden.

He took out a match and lit the gasoline, and then he immediately ran to the back of the room. The fire burned all the way. Finally, the whole car was burned with a bang.

The four big men in the room immediately ran out.

At the same time, Ren Tianchen took the opportunity to sneak into the room and asked everyone not to make a sound at the first time.

The girl saw Ren Tianchen and burst into tears. In her heart, Ren Tianchen was the first person to be so good to her.

Ren Tianchen first untied the girl, and then untied several beggars.

Suddenly, the door was pushed open, and several big men sensed that something was wrong and immediately rushed in.

"Run!" Ren Tianchen exclaimed, pulled the girl out of the window and ran all the way.

However, one trafficker chased after them, and the other three went to catch the other children.

Ren Tianchen's weak bodies still couldn't run past a strong adult, and he was caught.

"You little devil, how dare you burn the old man's car, and today I will kill you as a wine dish." The trafficker pressed him in the snow, took out a dagger, and tried to kill him with a ferocious face.

Ren Tianchen struggled desperately and touched a stone in the chaos and held it in his hand.

When the girl saw that the trafficker was going to kill Ren Tianchen, she picked up a stone and hit it on the back of the head of the trafficker. At the same time, Ren Tianchen also hit the trafficker's face three times with a stone, which immediately made him blue and swollen.

After that, Ren Tianchen's eyes showed fierce light, grabbed the human trafficker's dagger, and stabbed the human trafficker's throat fiercely. Suddenly, blood gushed and splashed on Ren Tianchen's face and body.

The trafficker looked up to the sky and fell down, and Ren Tianchen was still sitting on his chest, with bright red blood stained with snow on the ground.

The girl beside her was scared by this bloody scene.

Ren Tianchen himself was so scared that he rolled down from the body of the trafficker and retreated several meters. He looked at his bloody hands with a dull face.

"Did I kill someone? Did I kill someone?"

Then he vomited. This was the first time he killed people. Although he often stole or robbed food before, he had never killed anyone. This bloody scene stimulated his nerves.

At this time, he heard a voice and knew that someone was coming. It might be a gang of human traffickers. He quickly pulled the girl away.

They kept running and didn't know how many falls. They didn't stop until they didn't have the strength. Looking back, it was white and no one chased after them.
