As the boy from the same town clarified everything that happened more than a year ago, the old ghost's face became more and more ugly.

His face was ashen, and the soaring anger all over his body swept in like a tide, covering the entire ruined temple.

Originally, the temperature in northern Xinjiang dropped to freezing cold at night, but now because of the old ghost's anger, the surrounding temperature plummeted, and everyone felt the endless chill attack, even Su Che was not surprised...

Su Che looked at the old ghost's pensive look, as if he was recalling the past of his old friend, so Su Che didn't disturb his thoughts...

The seven or eight people lying on the ground were trembling with fright. The quieter the air, the more frightened they were...

Looking at Su Che with a face full of pleading: "Second... two masters, we have told you everything we know. Today is really the first time we have been bandits. You... I beg you to show your kindness and spare us... We really do... Some are old and some are young, they don’t even have food to eat..."

Su Che didn't intend to do anything to this group of people at first. Everyone is a hard-working person, and they don't even have the qualifications to relocate their families and leave their hometowns. In this war, apart from those who died in battle, they are the most pitiful... …

Thinking of this, Su Che touched his pocket subconsciously, originally planning to give them some money.

It is a pity that I have never had any concept of money, and the money in Xiaoqian world is not compatible with the secular plane, and Su Che does not have a big son now.

Helpless, he could only wave his hands: "Let's all go... If you want to fill your stomach, you can work harder for a while, relying on mountains and eating mountains. After this period of time, when the war is over, you will be able to live a quiet life again. "

"The war is over?"

Everyone looked at each other with longing, and at the same time, disbelief: "Master, this battle has been fought for such a long time, and we have lost every step of the way. There is no hope of winning at all. I want the war to end. I'm afraid I won't be able to wait..."

"It will be over soon." Su Che waved his hand: "Let's go."

"Yes Yes……"

"Thank you grandpa..."

"Thank you for your mercy..."

"After you go back, do something serious! No matter how difficult it is, being a bandit is always not advisable. You can't bully or rob people who have money and food. Most of the people who can be robbed are poor people like you. There is no oil and water. Is this account still unclear?"

"Yes, yes, sir, we remember, after we go back, we will clean up and start a new life..."

"Ah."

After Su Che nodded in agreement, the group of people rubbed the soles of their feet with oil one by one, and ran away in a flash.

in the ruined temple.

A long silence.

The old ghost's thoughts went to some corner beyond the cloud nine, and after a hundred or ten breaths, he finally came back to his senses.

"Ugh……"

The old ghost sighed: "It's all my fault... I should have thought about it when I encountered this incident. I just saved their mother and daughter with a little effort, but the bandits are still there... I should have thought about it a long time ago." Yes! If I hadn't been so playful back then, I would have gone up the mountain and slaughtered all the bandits in Heifengzhai! How could their wives have suffered such a result..."

"It's not all your fault."

Su Che let out a long breath: "It's a little effort for you to save them, but for them, they have already regained their lives. The gangsters will come back later. I can only say that they deserve this disaster..."

"Again..."

Su Che said: "Didn't the boy from the same village just say that Xiaoyue'er and her mother were just arrested and taken up the mountain. They might still be alive, and they didn't say they would definitely suffer. It just so happens that we are going to Heifeng this time. Fortress, if they are still on the stronghold, save them!"

Unexpectedly, Su Che was stopped by the old ghost before he finished speaking.

"Will not……"

"Boy Su, you don't understand Xiaoyue'er's mother's character. How could such a strong and stubborn person be caught up to the mountain and still live until today? There is no such possibility..."

"This……"

Su Che looked at him suspiciously: "So, you know Xiaoyue'er's mother well?"

"I……"

The old ghost pointed to the door: "Let's go, go to their house and have a look, no matter if there is no one there, you should go and have a look, let's talk as we walk."

"it is good."

The two quickly left the ruined temple and walked over there.

The old ghost said: "The woman's husband has been dead for many years. It's not easy to take care of the child alone...but she is very strong and admirable! Take care of the child, wash clothes for others, go to the mountains to collect herbs, etc. , she is not afraid of hard work to earn money to support her children..."

"I rescued their mother and daughter back then, and they invited me out kindly. They must let me rest and have two meals to express their gratitude. I wanted to give their gratitude a foothold, so I ate a few meals with them..."

"Through daily conversations and understanding, I know the tenacity and bravery of this woman, how strong she is, and how hard her life is..."

"But, I'm a prodigal son, I meet by chance, a guest from another country, what can I do, apart from comfort and silence, I don't know what to say, besides, the more I listen to her story, the more awkward it becomes, Two days later, I lied that I had something to get up and leave..."

"But I never expected that she... I don't know whether it was out of gratitude or something, that night, she went to my room...wanted...wanted to give it to me."

"I also considered that she might be looking for a father for her daughter. After all, the daughter is old enough, and she will be married in a few years. The girl is going to marry, and the child without a father is hard to say..."

"But no matter what the reason is, I was sorry for one person when I was young, how could I hurt another person, so I refused and left overnight..."

"What happened later, I really don't know anything..."

"I haven't mentioned this matter for more than a year, and I don't feel regretful."

"Today in a blink of an eye, I never expected that they... would encounter such a result... Really!"

Su Che has always been a qualified listener. The old ghost talked while walking, and he listened as he walked. Soon, he arrived at the small courtyard where the old ghost lived for two days and one night...

In the yard, there is no clean land in the past. Instead, after more than a year of winter and spring, weeds are overgrown, the dilapidated house, the walls are cracked, and the courtyard is collapsed and skewed...

The old ghost's eyes touched the dark red stone millstone used as a dining table in the yard, and saw the shapeless wooden wind chime hanging on the door frame, his eyes were moist and reddish...

"Boy Su, I made that wind chime myself and gave it to that girl Xiaoyue'er..." the old ghost murmured.
