"Thank you, thank you..." After everyone dispersed, Qiao Xiaozhou finally couldn't hold it back and cried in front of Shen Yun, "If it weren't for you, I, I really don't know what I would do..."

"...Be careful when you go out." Shen Yun stretched out his hand and handed the thing to her, with a completely different expression from before, "Here, your thing."

Qiao Xiaozhou couldn't help but be a little stunned, "Ah, thank you, thank you!"

Seeing her reaction, Shen Yun was surprised, "...You don't know that the pocket watch is in my hand?"

"I don't know!" Qiao Xiaozhou said with sincere admiration, "You are so amazing, you actually got something from that woman's pocket in an instant!"

"...Since you didn't know that the pocket watch was in my hand, why didn't you want to get your own pocket watch back just now?" Shen Yun looked at her.

Qiao Xiaozhou was stunned again, "I...I forgot..."

"..."

"Are you... so stupid that I am?" Qiao Xiaozhou asked carefully, "I'm sorry, I, I will try my best not to be so stupid..."

"...Forget it." Shen Yun turned around and left.

"Where are you going? Can I go with you?"

"Aren't you going to find your grandparents?"

"Ah, I, I forgot again..." Qiao Xiaozhou said cautiously, "Then can I stay with you temporarily? You seem to be very safe. I'm afraid of meeting those people again..."

As a girl who has never seen the world, it is indeed easy for her to run into bad people. People like Shen Yun will not appear to protect her every time she is in danger. Remembering that he was also living outside, Chen Yun couldn't help but lower his eyes, "...Follow me."

……

This is a small, remote house.

The house is made of bricks and tiles, with few daily necessities. The tables and stools look fragile. There are still spider webs in the corners. The roof seems to be leaking. There is an atmosphere of "poverty" everywhere. Fortunately, the ground looks still good. It's relatively clean and not particularly dirty.

"Is this...where you live?" Qiao Xiaozhou looked up and down.

"If you don't have a place to live, you can stay here temporarily, of course, if you get used to it." Shen Yun glanced at her lightly, "The toilet is next door. It's a thatched pit. It's very smelly. It's best not to go there."

"It doesn't matter, I'm used to living here!" Qiao Xiaozhou said seriously, "In the past, my mother often took me around and went to many dirty places. Although I have never lived there,... I will work hard to overcome it!"

Of course Shen Yun could see the resistance in the girl's heart. After all, not everyone had the same experience as her. Ordinary teenage girls should have a home instead of living in a place where even dogs would look down on them. Spend the day.

"The stove is over there, and the food is there. If you're hungry, just cook it yourself." Shen Yun pointed and gave a brief introduction, "I'm going to take a shower."

"it is good!"

After Shen Yun left, Qiao Xiaozhou looked around the room.

The sanitary conditions here are poor, but the necessary papers, quilts, and toiletries are all neatly placed. Although it looks a bit rough, Shen Yun cleans it well on weekdays and can barely survive.

Suddenly, a slippery cockroach tentatively crawled across the soles of her feet.

"Ah!!" Qiao Xiaozhou trembled and started to calm down, "It's okay, there's only one..."

"It's just a cockroach..."

"Slippers...slap them to death..." She found a pair of slippers from the bottom of the bed, and with a "snap", she aimed at the cockroaches that hadn't gone far away!

But there was a hole in the slippers!

The cockroach poked its head out of the hole, looked at Qiao Xiaozhou, and flew into her face with a buzz!

"Ahhhhh!!"

Shen Yun, who was taking a shower outside, vaguely heard Qiao Xiaozhou's miserable screams and couldn't help but be silent for a moment.

Ten minutes later she returned to the house.

"what happened?"

"There are cockroaches... woo hoo hoo..."

"...Didn't you shoot it to death?"

"I shot it, but I couldn't hit it..." Qiao Xiaozhou was in shock, "Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu...It flew into my face...wuuuuuu..."

"..." Shen Yun fell silent. Forget it, he is only a half-grown child, different from someone like her who has experienced life and death. She said seriously to Qiao Xiaozhou, "If cockroaches are afraid, you'd better stop following me. This is not the place for you."

"I, I, I... I'm working hard! Don't drive me away, I will definitely work hard to defeat the cockroaches!" Qiao Xiaozhou quickly stood up straight, straightening his expression, looking iron-clad.

"Have you eaten yet?" Shen Yun turned his head.

"Huh? Not yet..."

"Then let's go cook. I exchanged my ten-point wild hunting currency for my house at the Chamber of Commerce and Trade. You need to pay rent when you live here."

"How much does it cost...?" Qiao Xiaozhou asked carefully.

"You don't need money, just help me with the housework."

"Oh, okay." She nodded, "What trade association are you talking about...what is it?"

"A place for trading." Shen Yun simply explained, "I list my business there and earn hunting coins by hunting monsters. Otherwise, where do you think the furniture in the house came from?"

"Warcraft...I heard that Warcraft are very ferocious and terrifying. Are you hunting Warcraft every day?"

"How else will I live? Steal or rob?" Shen Yun asked.

"No, no, I didn't mean that. I just said... won't it be hard for you to do this?" Qiao Xiaozhou waved his hand and explained quickly.

"What can we do?"

Yes, what can we do?

Qiao Xiaozhou felt a little uncomfortable indescribably, and quickly said seriously, "I'm sorry...I will definitely work hard!"

Chen Yun glanced at her and said, "You must have a lot of money in your bag."

"Yes... but there is still a long way to go until I can find my grandparents..." Qiao Xiaozhou scratched his head, "I also want to go to that chamber of commerce... If possible, I also want to make some money and save enough money. Then you can go find your grandparents..."

"You should get used to the environment first. I'll go out for a while and take you with me when I come back." Shen Yun was noncommittal.

"Okay!" Qiao Xiaozhou agreed happily.

……

Soon after, Shen Yun dragged a clean corpse of a monster to the exchange hall.

A middle-aged man with a beard walked over and nodded, "Not bad, your abilities have improved a bit." He took out the currency and counted it, "Twenty wild hunting coins, here you go."

"Okay." Shen Yun put the currency away. Her steps were a little wobbly. It was obvious that she spent a lot of time fighting this monster.

"Kid, there are many medical departments around here. Why don't you go and look at the injuries?" The man looked at her carefully, "Although it is just a small injury, the scars left behind are very ugly. Don't you girls all love beauty?"

Chen Yun turned his head and saw him pointing at his waist, where he had just been scratched by a wild beast. The wound had not yet formed a scar, and his clothes were stained with obvious blood.

"It doesn't matter." Shen Yun shook his head. It was already very difficult just to earn living expenses. Unless she was seriously injured, she would not go for special treatment. She could just stay at home and rub it with medicine. For a homeless person like her, no one would care about where she died, so why would they care about this scar.

Just as she was about to walk out, she suddenly caught a glimpse of someone, her breathing suddenly stagnated, and her pupils shrank sharply.
