Chapter 74 [The Magician's (1)
Chen Daolin found the rope and tied the girl up. Then Barossa took out the water bag and gauze, and carefully washed Chen Daolin's nose serum.
Chen Daolin saw the strange expression on the elf girl's face, and seemed to be smiling. He groaned muffled: "Hmph, am I funny now? Just laugh if you want to."
Barossa laughed, but when she saw Chen Daolin's depressed look, she squatted in front of him and gently held Chen Daolin's face with her hands, her eyes were gentle, and she whispered: "Are you angry?"
Chen Daolin sighed, looking helpless: "I'm so useless after all. I can't even deal with such a little thief. I was beaten so hard that my face was full of blooming. I also want you to take action..."
As he said that, he raised his eyelids and looked at Barossa deeply: "Do you think I'm too incompetent?"
Barossa pursed her lips, and the elf girl leaned over and actually kissed Chen Daolin's face with a blushing face, then blushed and whispered: "How could it be, I think you are a very powerful person."
"Really?" Chen Daolin was amused and crying.
"Of course!" Barossa nodded vigorously and said softly: "You know a lot of things and a lot of things. The Duchess of the Tulips are the most powerful figure in the Roland Empire. But in those days, I listen to her talk to you every day. There are ninety-nine sentences in a hundred sentences. Although I have never seen any world, I think even the elders of the tribe are not as knowledgeable as you. The Duchess of the Tulips, I noticed that she often looks at you, and I admire her very much."
This is said in a casual manner, and the innocent and sincere eyes of the elf girl and the gentle eye waves as soft as water. In this case, such a beautiful elf girl looks at you with her innocent big eyes, and then speaks such admiration for you... Whenever a man encounters this situation, he is afraid that ninety-nine out of a hundred will be confused.
Chen Daolin was overjoyed when he heard this, and the little depression in his heart disappeared. He gently pulled Barossa's little hand, and felt that the elf girl in front of him was more cute and charming as she looked at her. Everything on her body was so cute.
"Haha, it's still my elf who has vision!" Chen Daolin thrust his chest.
Barossa made a gentle move, helping Chen Daolin wipe away the bleeding from the nose and clean her face. Then Chen Daolin stood up reluctantly from the elf girl's arms, what's next...
Humph, of course I have to deal with that little thief well!
He thought about it, weighed the short sword in his hand, and walked to the little thief.
The little thief was tied with a rope by Barossa and lay there motionless. However, before Chen Dao walked over, he carefully saw that although the little thief had his eyes closed, his eyelids trembled slightly. It was obvious that he had woken up early, but he was still pretending to be dizzy.
Chen Daolin kicked her gently without any mercy: "Hey!"
The little thief closed his eyes tightly but did not move. Chen Daolin sneered, drew out the short sword, squatted beside her, and the sword breeze deliberately rubbed past her face gently and whispered: "Don't do this with me. If you don't open your eyes, I will cut your nose with one sword."
As he said that, the sword edge was already crossing under her nostrils.
The little thief immediately exclaimed, opened his eyes, stared at Chen Daolin in horror, and exclaimed: "No, don't, don't cut my nose!"
Chen Daolin took back the dagger and looked at her: "Tell me now, who are you, how could you come here!"
"I..." The little girl's eyes were circling and she was about to make up a few lies, but Chen Daolin had already gestured the dagger on her face a few more times, and said lightly: "You have thought about it before you speak. If you say a lie, I will cut your face. If you say ten words, I will cut your face ten times! Your face is not big, and you can't cut a few times, but there will be no place to cut your knife!"
The girl shrank her neck and had no choice but to give her a lot of explanations.
It is basically consistent with Chen Daolin's guess. This girl is a little beggar and a thief. She usually relies on making a living on the street. In addition to begging, she also has the ability to have a golden finger.
Hearing this, Chen Daolin noticed the other party's hand, and indeed his fingers were slender, and he couldn't help but smile: "So he is really a little thief."
The girl was not angry, and continued timidly: "A few days ago, our street was occupied by others. The new guys were so fierce that I had no place to make a living, and I had no place to live. I had to go into the alley to find a corner to settle down. I slept under the tung tree outside the yard for two days. Then I noticed that no one had entered or exited the yard for two days. I guess that most of the time there was no one at home in this yard, so..."
"So you climbed over the wall?" Chen Daolin said viciously: "What did you steal?"
"No!" The little girl shook her head cleanly and defended her: "I want to find something to exchange for money, but you can go and see it yourself. There is no stolen thing in this room for me!! The food I have eaten these two days is still being asked for from the street. I have only been here for one night, and I just borrowed this house to sleep. There is a roof on my head, so I don't need to be exposed to the feng shui and rain."
She cried: "I really didn't steal anything. There wasn't even a bed in the room. A broken cabinet was empty. The wood in the cabinet was almost destroyed. No one wanted it if I gave it to anyone. I..."
Chen Daolin snorted and nodded.
He had already entered the room and looked at it. The room was indeed empty, and there was really nothing except a broken cabinet.
"You are making a living on the street, so you must have companions?" Chen Daolin thought for a while and asked, "You have found such a place to stay, but you haven't brought your companions here?"
"I recognize a few guys." The girl rolled her eyes and whispered: "But I'm not a fool. If I bring someone else to this good place, I'm afraid I'll be snatched away. It's better to keep it alone."
Chen Daolin smiled and looked into the girl's eyes: "You are cunning."
After a pause, he suddenly asked, "You should have a name, right? What's your name? How old are you?"
"My name is..."
When Chen Dao saw the girl's eyes rolling around, he reminded coldly: "Be careful, if you tell lies, you will know the consequences."
"I..." The girl sighed helplessly: "My name is Xia Xia."
"Xia Xia?" Chen Daolin smiled bitterly, "Is this a name?"
"Of course!" The girl glared and retorted: "Why don't you count? My name is Xia Xia. This is my name!"
"Then...what's your last name?"
"..." Xia Xia was stunned, lowered her eyelids, shook her head and said, "Where is the little beggar like me who is begging for food on the street?"
"How old are you?"
After hearing this, Xia Xia hesitated for a moment, looked at Chen Daolin and said carefully: "I'm eighteen..." Seeing Chen Daolin glaring, she immediately changed her words and said, "Sixteen? Oh no, no, I'm fifteen..." Seeing that Chen Daolin had raised his eyebrows, Xia Xia said quickly again: "Okay, okay, I'm fourteen...thirteen...thirteen..."
Chen Daolin had already tightened the dagger, and Xia Xia finally screamed: "Okay, I'll tell the truth, I'm ten years old! I'm really ten years old!! I didn't lie to you this time!"
Chen Daolin's expression was stunned.
Ten years old?
This little girl is actually... only ten years old?!
She was dressed in a torn and dirty face, and she really didn't show her age.
But...ten years old?!
Chen Daolin suddenly had the urge to cry.
My dignified brother Darling, actually... I was beaten by a ten-year-old girl just now!
I was actually beaten by a ten-year-old girl, smashed my nose and kicked it into a panda's eye!!
Chen Daolin's face was so ugly that he swallowed hard and spitted: "Ten, ten years old?"
"Really, he is really ten years old." Xia Xia cried with a sad face.
"Then... you said you don't have a surname, but..." Chen Daolin shook his head: "You always have a source, right?"
"I..." Xia Xia's eyes flashed with gloom, and she was silent for a while, and whispered: "I, I only know that my mother came here by a slave trader. Later, she became pregnant and gave birth to me. The slave trader did not leave any babies because she could only waste food and could not sell it for money, so she threw me away. Then, the old man picked me up in the garbage dump and took me back to raise. When I was six years old, the old man and others were beaten to death with others. I... I was alone."
When she said this, her eyes were a little numb. Such eyes were definitely not something that a little girl of this age could disguise. Chen Daolin was shocked when he heard this. Looking at the girl's eyes, he couldn't help but feel a little softened and sighed softly: "He is also a poor guy."
Barossa next to her had already heard the eyes red, and she couldn't help but whisper: "Darling, she is so pitiful. Let's let her go, okay?"
"Let me go?" Chen Daolin thought seriously, shook his head and said, "No!"
Looking at Barossa's puzzled eyes, Chen Daolin said slowly: "She is a little local snake and knows other gangsters who are seeking life on the street. Let her go. What if she leads people to retaliate? Besides, the fewer people know about what we are here, the better."
After hearing this, Barossa had to close her mouth. However, when Xia Xia heard these words from Chen Daolin, she immediately widened her eyes and looked at Chen Daolin in surprise: "You... are you fugitives?"
"Fugitive? Hahaha! Yes, we are fugitives!" Chen Daolin deliberately smiled fiercely, his eyes were fierce, and he stared at Xia Xia: "Tell you, I am a thief who kills people like me and carries a wanted order. I will kill ten or eight of him with a little girl like you in a blink of an eye."
"Wanted thief? Murderer?" Xia Xia was shocked and stared at Chen Daolin with wide eyes. After a while, the little girl let out a long sigh, with a confident expression, shook her head and said, "You must be lying to me."
“…You don’t believe it?”
"Of course I don't believe it." Xia Xia looked at Chen Daolin and frowned.
“Why?”
"I heard that those murderers and wanted thieves are all domineering and look very arrogant. They can scare people to faint by just glaring at them. As for you..."
The little girl looked at Chen Daolin and simply shook her head: "You are more vulgar. You don't look like a murderer. However, I have seen the old perverts in the tavern in the town who like to touch the butts of the waitress after getting drunk... You smiled quite like those people."
“…”
...
If Barossa hadn't stopped her, if she hadn't just learned that this little girl was only ten years old, Chen Daolin really wanted to go up and kick her hard on the butt!
Despicable!
He actually said that I am a handsome and handsome guy, Da Ling, is a wretched guy?!
Don’t you know what domineering aura means? Don’t you know what the kingly aura means? Don’t you know what the time traveler is powerful? Don’t you explain it!!
Despicable?!!
"Hmph." Chen Daolin held back his anger, lifted her up, threw her into the corner of the house, and glared and shouted: "Stay honestly, don't make trouble, otherwise, I'll...I'll..."
Chen Daolin originally wanted to say a few threatening words, but when he thought that the other party was just a ten-year-old girl and bullying a little girl was too boring, he sighed: "Otherwise, I won't give you food!"
"……call!!"
Xia Xia was originally reminding her of being nervous, but when she heard Chen Daolin say this, she let out a long sigh, looking relieved.
"Huh? What's your expression?" Chen Daolin couldn't help but feel a little confused when he saw the girl's expression.
"Isn't it just hungry?" Xia Xiawen said aggrievedly: "I can't get anything to eat, so it's common for a day or two to be hungry. Alas, I'll feel relieved if you say that."
After a pause, the little girl whispered: "I thought you would take off my clothes... and bully me... I heard that some very vulgar and perverted men like me, who are very young. You are so slutty and slutty... Alas, I have been worrying for a long time."
When Chen Daolin heard this, he suddenly became angry and almost vomited blood. He silently said in his heart, "She is only ten years old, she is only ten years old, she is only ten years old...can't bully children..."
But Barossa's face turned red with a smile, and she quickly went up and gently grabbed Chen Daolin's arm, patted him on the back, and said with a soft smile: "Okay, Brother Daling, why are you fighting with a child?"
After a pause, she whispered: "Aren't you looking for something?"
"Ah, right!"
Chen Daolin calmed down, took a deep breath, calmed down for a while, and began to search the room.
This room is just a big place, and you can see clearly at a glance. Chen Daolin recalled Mrs. Shi Tou's last words and frowned and looked around...
Silver water basin.
Mrs. Shitou said before her death that there should be a silver basin here.
But the room was clear at a glance, and the broken cabinet was also empty. Where was the "silver water basin" that Mrs. Shi Tou called?
Could it be... it was taken away by this Xia Xia?
Chen Daolin looked at Xia Xia in the corner, but the little girl reacted quickly and immediately shouted: "I don't know what you are looking for! But I really haven't taken the things in this room! When I came, I had a broken cabinet and the drawers were still empty! If I tell a lie, you will cut my nose!"
Chen Daolin looked at the little girl's eyes and confirmed that what she was saying should be the truth, and couldn't help but sigh.
Could it be... Mrs. Shitou was confused before her death and she said it wrong?
It wasn't right. At that time, she looked very clear and didn't look confused.
