Under such circumstances, in order to survive, many people have no choice but to give up their children to others. Those with a better conscience will sell their children to rich families and serve as slaves, and their children will be settled. , so as not to starve to death, but in this way, the money parents can get is very little, and they deduct it in turn. If it looks attractive, the price will be higher. After all, people from noble families always have some eccentricities. In this way, the money parents get is several times that of selling their children to wealthy families. Girls generally have higher prices, especially if they are cute. Beautiful, so you get a lot of money.

It's a strange thing to say, the more the wartime, the richer the richer, the fireworks venues are getting bigger and bigger, after all, there is no shortage of people, and the price is cheap, of course, there are some people who are not willing to be sold.

"Get out of the way, get out of the way." Three or five tall and burly men pushed away the pedestrians in front of them, and looked around: "Search separately, I don't believe that a little girl can escape to nowhere."

The others dispersed after taking their orders. The pedestrian who was pushed down just now saw the men leave, so he got up on his own, dusted himself, sighed and left, fairness, he did not If he dares to ask for help, he is even more afraid to do it. It is more important to save his own life.

The pedestrians around are no strangers to this kind of situation. This kind of situation happens almost every month. There are always two or three times. This month is the third time. I haven’t seen any children who can escape. Children His parents didn't care, and outsiders naturally wouldn't come to this muddy water.

There were chaotic footsteps behind her, so the girl had no choice but to speed up her pace, but she was a child after all, and her physical strength was always limited. With a sound of "pa", the girl fell heavily into the puddle, splashing everywhere splash.

"Cough cough..." The muddy water accidentally choked the girl's throat. The girl coughed a few times, put her hands in the water, and slowly got up.

The child raised his head. Not far away, a woman holding wild vegetables looked at the child. The child was surprised by her probing eyes. She didn't care about tidying up her messy self. She passed the old woman and ran quickly. Open, she still remembers that she was also such an adult when she ran away last time, she thought that the adult would help when she saw herself, but the man told those people where she was, and she was taken back, standing on the man's shoulder The moment she was struggling on the floor, she caught a glimpse of the groveling adult who was collecting money and facing her captors, so this time she was seen by others, she was terrified, and could only run as hard as she could.

"Hey~" The woman looked at the back of the child, sighed helplessly, grabbed the wild vegetables in her hand, turned and left, thinking, another poor child.

"Uh" It was another violent impact, but this time it didn't hurt, and the wall seemed to still be warm.

"Are you OK?"

An immature voice rang in the girl's ear, the voice was thin and pleasant to hear, the girl immediately realized her situation, so she took a few steps back and looked up.

Those are a pair of clear smiling eyes, innocent?innocent?The girl couldn't say it, those eyes were not like the smirk of the procuress, nor the cruelty of her parents, they were faint and exuded a soft light, they were eyes that she had never seen before in her memory.

The boy was wearing a snow-white robe, his hair was tied up with a bamboo hairpin, his face was like a peach apricot, his posture was elegant, and he stood upright, as if nothing could knock him down.

"Quick, this way"

A familiar male voice sounded behind her, and the girl recovered from her stupor in shock, with an extremely flustered expression appearing on her face again.

"shush"

In the next second, the girl only saw the person in front of her, and made a hissing gesture to herself, and then his hands wrapped around her waist, and then she only felt his legs move down slightly, and then I flew up with him, feeling suddenly a little excited, even at such a tense moment.

The moment he landed on the roof, he staggered a little, but fortunately he quickly stood still, his heart was startled at first, and then relaxed again.

A man's curse sound came from nearby. In order not to be discovered, he pulled himself to sit down. She didn't know if it was because he had been in contact with muddy water just now. She felt that the boy's hand was very warm. Subconsciously, She squeezed the boy's hand.

The man's voice gradually faded away, and the girl was nervous, not daring to breathe out, for fear of being discovered by them.Perhaps the boy noticed the girl's fear, and comforted him, "Don't be afraid, we've gone far away."

That was the second time the girl heard the boy's voice, it was clear, and it felt like rubbing Nuonuo, but it was very nice.

"En" the girl nodded weakly. She looked at the person in front of her and realized that his snow-white robe was stained with dirt due to her own reasons. There was still his own handprint on his body, and suddenly, he felt that he seemed to have done something bad, his face turned red suddenly, and he was at a loss for a moment.

"Okay, they're gone, I'll take you down." The boy stood up, stretched out his hand to the girl, and smiled brightly.

The girl looked at the person in front of her, and was a little afraid to reach out, so there was no movement for a long time, which aroused the boy's doubts for a while.

"The clothes...I'm dirty..." It took a long time for the boy to hear the girl's words, and seeing the girl's face turned red, the boy felt that she seemed very scared

"Wash and clean, I'll carry you down first"

After finishing speaking, before the girl could react, the boy carried her and flew off the roof. This time, it was better than the previous one, there was no big stagger, and the two of them landed on the ground smoothly.

Sensing the presence of the ground, the girl immediately left the boy, keeping a distance between herself and the person in front of her.

"Thank you" the girl tightly grabbed the corner of her clothes to express her gratitude.

"Well, it's alright"

The boy grinned a little. The girl in front of him had crystal tears in her eyes, her mouth was clenched tightly, and there was an inexplicable feeling of unwillingness to admit defeat. Her face was covered, but her fair skin could be vaguely seen.

The hair on her head just reached her shoulders, and it was all scattered on her shoulders, and there was a lot of yellow soil on her hair. Her body was thin and straight, like a bamboo, and she was wearing old boys' clothes, which were very wide and not too big. It fit well, the clothes were covered with a lot of muddy water, along the corners of the clothes, the muddy water was still falling drop by drop, the weather was still very cold, but she didn't wear shoes, her bare feet were red from the cold, and there were some deep red marks on her feet, It seems that while running, it was scratched by some foreign object.

"Follow me" felt a heart-wrenching pain in his heart, the boy grabbed the girl's hand and brought her back to the inn where he was staying. His strength was stronger than the girl's, and the girl was already hungry After a long time, she was completely powerless to resist, so she could only obediently follow.

"Crackling" pushed the door open, and the boy let go of the girl. He asked Xiao Er to pour hot water into the bathtub, and the girl could only watch in bewilderment.

"You wash it first"

The boy saw the girl's worry and explained.

Listening to the boy's words, the girl was very worried, whether he was going to sue, she subconsciously grabbed the boy's sleeve, but did not speak.

"Don't worry, I'm behind the curtain," the boy explained with a smile.

The girl looked at the boy, she didn't seem to be lying, she slowly let go of her hands, the boy smiled again when he saw this, he pushed the girl to the bathtub, and said: "Don't worry, I'll be there Outside, call me if you need anything," before turning around and leaving.

The girl quietly walked to the curtain, and took a peek outside. A familiar figure was sitting at the table outside the curtain, with her back facing her, her back straight. The girl was relieved, and she walked back to the bathroom again. Next to the bucket, she lifted her foot into the tub. The tub is not big, and it seems to be specially designed for children, so it is not particularly difficult for her to get into the tub.

The moment her feet touched the warm water, a sharp tingling pain came to her mind, causing her to take a sharp breath, and her face turned pale for a moment, but slowly her body adapted to the temperature of the water, and the tingling pain also disappeared. It was gradually weakening, so she began to wash it gently.

"Crackling" she heard the door open and someone came in, and then she heard the boy's voice, but the voice was very soft, she couldn't hear what the boy was saying at all, and the voice stopped after a while , followed by another "creaking" sound, the door was closed again, and then the girl heard footsteps seeming to be approaching her, so frightened that her body subconsciously backed away, tightly stuck to the tub, her eyes closed Watching ahead vigilantly.

Then, I saw a hand stretched out from behind the curtain, fumbled, and put a stack of clothes on the chair behind the curtain.

"You can't wear your clothes anymore. These are the clothes I asked Xiao Er to prepare. I don't know if they fit. You can wear this for now. I'll put the shoes here too."
