Trafford’s Trading Club

It’s not easy to walk on the road like this place. Besides, Aunt Ren even soaked back to the fish pond. She was soaked and surrounded by mosquitoes. It took only seven or eight minutes to walk. The aunt groaned in her heart.

However, Xiao Xi, who was carrying a bamboo basket in front of him, was walking briskly at this time, which was not at all comparable to that of Aunt Ren.

"By the way, Xiao Xi, why are you wandering out here alone so late...Aren't you afraid?"

"Looking for something to eat." Xiao Xi said without turning back: "I wanted to touch some rice eel, but I didn't touch it."

As he said, Xiao Xi suddenly stopped, then jumped into the ground, reaching out and digging into the natural enemy.

After a while, Xiao Xi skillfully pulled out two small and small sweet potatoes from the ground, and threw them directly into the bamboo basket. Then he smiled and said, "Okay, let's go on!"

Aunt Ren wanted to speak at this time and stopped...In the end, she didn't say anything, just nodded gently, and followed Xiao Xi all the way.

After another five minutes or so, a dirt house with yellow mud walls appeared in front of Aunt Ren. The courtyard walls were also piled up with mud, and a wooden door was obliquely hidden.

"Xiao Xi... do you live here?" Ren Ziling asked hesitantly.

"Yes." Xiao Xi turned her head and nodded, "Wait for a while, I'll get something to eat first... I cooked some porridge when I came out, it's almost ready."

She watched the braided little girl walk quickly into the muddy courtyard.

In the corner of the yard, there was a fire piled up with stones, and a black iron pot was set on it. The smell of firewood was very strong.

Ren Ziling looked around...the phone still has no signal, but the flashlight on the phone obviously works.

The yard was suddenly illuminated a lot... the earth house in front of me, half of it collapsed completely, and the remaining half was intact.

Aunt Ren gently pushed open the door of this half of the house with a trembling heart and looked in, and suddenly a stinking smell came to her face... The ground was also muddy, but it was pressed flat. The most common type was used on it. Plastic bags containing chemical fertilizers are spread.

In the corner of the house, a few dirty rubber blocks were put together, and it seemed to be a bed...There were several candles beside it, both long and short.

Some clothes were neatly folded in one corner. In front of the only window of the house, it was covered with some greenhouse film-and there was a wooden stool about 30 cm high with a shabby book on it. There are some books next to them, which are also old books.

Ren Ziling saw the light bulb on the roof beam, but the switch found on the wall couldn't turn on the light. She knew there must be a power cut.

"Xiao Xi."

Ren Ziling couldn't stand it anymore. She walked out of the room and saw Xiao Xi squatting in front of the stove at this time, blowing a fire with a bamboo tube.

"Are you hungry? Big sister? The sweet potatoes have just been roasted, and I have to wait for a long time, or...you have some porridge first?" Xiao Xi thought for a while.

Aunt Ren walked to the stove without saying a word, covered her palms with her sleeves and unwrapped the iron pan... It was indeed porridge, but it was sparse, and there were some wild vegetables in it that she could not name.

There are a lot of wild vegetables, and they even smell a little sweet.

"You...do you usually eat these?" Ren Ziling looked at the braided little girl with an incredible expression.

"The bacon at home is finished." Xiao Xi shook her head, "I didn't touch the eel tonight, otherwise there will be meat! There are two chickens in the backyard, but the eggs are also finished, and they have not been laid. Some time ago Some elder brothers and elder sisters brought some noodles, rice and canned oil and salt, but they also ate them."

"Where are your parents?" She had already realized something, but Ren Ziling couldn't help asking at this time: "Family?"

"Ama was gone a long time ago." Xiao Xi's face was as normal as usual: "Abba went out to work, but hasn't returned for a long time. When grandma left three years ago, Abba asked him to bring some money back, but there was no news. Up."

"This house..."

"It collapsed last year."

"There is no village near here? Does the village committee ignore you?"

"The village is still far away, and the people in the village don’t care about me... In fact, it doesn’t matter. I am not hungry alone. When I am hungry, I will fish and eat. Sometimes I can catch a few quails. There are also many that can be picked and eaten. Sometimes people will bring some food."

"Those guys will only carry some food!" Ren Ziling snorted coldly.

Xiao Xi didn't say anything, just stood up and walked to the side in silence, where there were a lot of dry branches and wood, but Xiao Xi grabbed a branch at this time and broke it with his knees.

Xiao Xi's movements were unusually swift, just looking at it, Aunt Ren's glasses couldn't help but turn red.

The child is so dexterous... so skilled that it hurts her heart.

Lao Ren was also an orphan without a father and no mother when he was a child. When he was not in an orphanage, he also had a bad experience.Later, I was admitted to the orphanage. I probably walked far away and was favored by a good man from Xiangjiang, and then funded her for the rest of her life... and she has her current appearance.

"Xiao Xi, how old are you this year?"

"thirteen."

Seeing this little girl who was a little dirty by the smoke, but still sharp eyes, the aunt Ren said in a wicked manner: "Xiao Xi, have you ever thought of leaving here?"

Xiao Xi shook her head: "I'm leaving, and Dad won't see me when he comes back."

Aunt Ren frowned and said, "What if your dad never comes back?"

Xiao Xi smiled and said, "When I grow up, I will go to work in the city. If I have money, I can find my dad."

"What is your dad's name?" Aunt Ren said quickly: "Sister, I know a lot of people, maybe I can help you inquire."

"Really!" Xiao Xi's eyes lit up suddenly, "My Abba's name is Su Xingqiu, the second group of Xiacun Rooster Concave people!"

Whoops——!!!

At this moment, there was a sharp whistling sound from a hill not far away, and the aunt's scalp was numb for a while...The surroundings were dark and there seemed to be countless unknown things hidden.

Ren Ziling's heart trembled: "Xiao Xi, you live here alone, aren't you afraid?"

"At first I was a little scared, but then I got used to it." Xiao Xi shook her head: "But recently this kind of noise has become more frequent at night...Sometimes I wake up in the middle of the night and see some green The light drifted by, and I was too scared to go out, but it was fine in the daytime."

"You can't live in this place!" Aunt Ren grabbed Xiao Xi's wrist at this time, "Do you know how many supernatural creatures are now lying on the ground outside the city?"

"Super...what is an extraordinary creature?" Xiao Xi asked puzzledly.

"You didn't watch the electricity..." Ren Ziling blurted out, but suddenly came over: "By the way, you are here. If no one tells you, you won't have access to anything."

As she said, Ren Ziling took a deep breath. She pressed Xiao Xi's shoulders with her hands and said with a serious face: "Listen, Xiao Xi, it's dangerous outside now. This world has changed. It's not the world we used to be. This world is now There are monsters, cannibals, and immortals... They are all dangerous, and maybe some will catch children like you to eat them."

Xiao Xi opened her mouth and immediately laughed, "Big sister, you tell a story!"

Aunt Ren was about to say something, but her eyes were suddenly startled... She hugged Xiao Xi all at once, and then rolled to one place.

I saw a black shadow suddenly rushing out at this time, and knocked down the stove, knocked the iron pot over, the stove broke...The burning wood scattered all over the floor.

"What is this!" Xiao Xi exclaimed at this moment: "What a big...what a big mouse!"

In front of him, a rat the size of an adult wolf dog appeared in the yard!The big mouse in front of him, his eyes flushed, and his claws black and black, he was staring at him, grinning.

Feeling the trembling body of Xiao Xi in her arms, Ren Ziling gritted her teeth and quickly took out the dial in her arms and put it on her forehead!

I saw a huge mouse pooping at this moment, but the blue photomask was generated at this moment...The huge mouse swooped onto the photomask, and then bounced off by the power of the photomask.

But the red-eyed mouse didn't let it go. After landing, he swooped in madly again.

Ren Ziling hugged Xiao Xi tightly at this time, and she didn't know whether the engraving magic given by Miss Moon could pass through at a low level, so she could only pray in her heart.

Outside, the calls of huge mice sounded again and again...

I don't know how long it has been here before Ren Ziling slowly opened her eyes, and what caught her eyes were the scarlet eyes of a huge mouse-directly this mouse struck again, and then was bounced away by the blue mask magic.

This time, after the huge mouse was bounced away, it seemed to roar a few times unwillingly, and then it digs through the soil and plunged into the soil.

But before the huge mouse finally left, his tail swept away suddenly, swept away the firewood, and directly hit Xiao Xi's house.

After a while, there was a fire in the house.

"Ah, my house..." Xiao Xi exclaimed at this time.

But how dare Ren Ziling stay here at this time?

She hugged Xiao Xi tightly and pulled her out forcefully...I saw the fire inside grew stronger, and it burned completely in a while.

Xiao Xi's face was pale, and she stared blankly at the fire in front of her, and suddenly fell to her knees.

At this moment, Aunt Ren stuck the dial on her forehead, and she didn't dare to let it go.

...

The interview car hurriedly stopped, and the old Q and Lizi in the car rushed out at this time.

Ren Ziling breathed a sigh of relief at this time, and immediately put down the bezel, and some of them sat on the ground...the light curtain disappeared.

"Boss! What's going on? We saw the fire from a distance..."

"Sister Ren?"

"Don't tell me..." Ren Ziling said weakly at this time: "Quickly, take this kid, hurry up... hurry back to the city! There is a big mouse!"

"Big... Rat?"

Lizi and Old Q glanced at each other, both with doubts on their faces.

...

...

...

...

The interview car slowly stopped in an alley in the old city... This road is not a police car that patrols during the curfew.

The interview car has indeed been interrogated several times, but the popularity of Aunt Ren is relatively widespread... The waves of police cars I encountered along the way were driven by acquaintances, and arrived at the destination smoothly.

At this time, Ren Ziling and the three took Xiao Xi, who was disheartened, walked into an old building.

"I used to live in this house with my husband, but it is temporarily vacant."

Aunt Ren turned on the light in the living room and pulled Xiao Xi to sit down, and then ordered Lizi to boil some boiling water and let Old Q get some food.

She looked at Xiao Xi and said, "My child, you can live here for the time being... You have also seen how dangerous the place you live is."

Xiao Xi curled up, her face pale, and she didn't know if she really listened to her, but she nodded silently.

Ren Ziling hugged Xiao Xi lovingly and patted her on the back, "Don't worry, I will try my best to help you find your father, so you can live here. Now the city is absolutely safe, those monsters Can't get in. Even if you get in, there is no strength."

At this moment, Lizi beckoned to her quietly.

Ren Ziling tidyed up Xiao Xi's somewhat messy hair, and after a few words of comfort, she walked over.

...

"Sister Ren, are you really planning to take in this child?" Lizi asked curiously at this time.

"Otherwise, what can I do?" Aunt Ren said irritably, "Since this has happened, I can't leave it alone... Besides, it's you, do you have the heart to watch this child stay in that dangerous place alone? Even the dilapidated home is gone. After a while, let's talk about it. I will see if I can help her find her relatives. If it doesn't work, I will see if there is any welfare agency willing to accept her."

Lizi tilted her head, looked at the little girl sitting in the corner of the chair, hugging her knees and burying her head through the partition screen in the living room, and suddenly said, "I don't think she is very scared..."

"What are you talking about!" Aunt Ren reached out and tapped the foodie's head: "Is there any sympathy! Your rent will increase by 30% in the future! The extra will be bought for Xiao Xi!"

Lizi's eyes widened all of a sudden. It's okay to kill her, she must not deprive her of the snack money, "Wow!!"

I saw Lizi cry all of a sudden, "I'm so pitiful! I am also an orphan, and I came here alone. I thought I had found a good job and met a senior who treated me well... …I thought that I would never have to live the life of turmoil before… I didn’t expect… Wow!! I’m so pathetic!”

Aunt Ren suddenly rubbed her forehead in pain, "It's all right! The rent is gone! I can support it myself!"

"Thank you Sister Ren!"

She gave her a sweet smile.

Ren Ziling rolled her eyes, and after thinking about it, she said, "It's too late now, and the curfew outside is not convenient... Tonight, you and Old Q will sleep here for one night. Let's go directly to the venue from here tomorrow. "

"Okay! I'm going to see the room!" Lizi said with joy.

"You hit the floor!" Aunt Ren glared, grabbed Lizi's back collar and withdrew her back, "I don't like outsiders sleeping in my room. It is my husband and I's former love nest. It is sacred and inviolable!"

"Isn't there another room..."

"That's for Xiao Xi!" Aunt Ren hummed: "You are ashamed to let a child who doesn't have a family sleep on the sofa?"

"Tsk!"

...

...

"Tonight, you can sleep here, Xiao Xi."

Leading the little girl to a neat little room, Aunt Ren said softly at this moment: "This room used to belong to my son. He likes to be clean. You can rest assured to sleep. There will be no mess here. thing."

Xiao Xi looked at the room in front of her with a weird face at this time, seemingly dazed.

"Sit down first. I'll find some clothes for you... I should have some old clothes here. Wait."

Having said that, Aunt Ren walked out quickly.

Xiao Xi swallowed her saliva and walked slowly to the bed... After tentatively pressing the mattress, she sat down a little bit.

When she just sat down, Xiao Xi bounced instantly, and then turned around with a vigilant look, looked at it, turned around, looked at it again.

Get down, open the sheets, and look inside.

Then he opened the curtains and looked out the window nervously.

After a long while, nothing seemed to happen before Xiao Xi slowly sighed.

Suddenly, Xiao Xi stepped on the closet next to her with a sharp gaze, and then walked quickly, suddenly opening the closet with her hands... and nothing.

She was relieved just now, and her body relaxed.

"this is……"

Suddenly, Xiao Xi's gaze seemed to see something, and she couldn't move away... She stood there like a petrified body, and for a while, she stretched out her hand trembling.

"That's my son's old underwear! It's not for girls, Xiao Xi, please use mine!"

Unexpectedly, Aunt Ren appeared at the entrance.

Xiao Xi...Xiao Xi closed the closet with a bang, lowered her head and grabbed the change of clothes from Aunt Ren's hand, and rushed out of the room as if rushing.

"There is the kitchen, and the bathroom is here."

Xiao Xi lowered her head again, and walked past Aunt Ren.

"I teach you to use a water heater?"

"I...I just wash in cold water, I'm used to..." Xiao Xi closed the door all of a sudden, and then turned on the shower without saying a word.

The cold water splashed across Xiao Xi's body, as if the heat in her body was slowly fading away... Then she took a long breath.

"What am I doing..."
