…

"Brother, why did you agree to him?"

After Li Mu agreed to Xiaobao's request, Uncle Sheng couldn't help but pull him and ask.

Although Xiaobao's father was trained to become a corpse demon and lost control, after all, it was Li Mu who killed him personally.

Even though Li Mu has explained the reason to Xiaobao, he is only a six-year-old child, how can he really distinguish between right and wrong?

"Uncle Sheng, don't worry, I know what's going on!"

Li Mu smiled at Uncle Sheng and said that it was precisely because Xiaobao's mind was not yet mature that he thought of taking him away.

Otherwise, he would be filled with hatred. After Li Mu and the others left the town, Li Mu could not imagine what kind of changes would happen to the life of Xiaobao, a fatherless and motherless man.

Originally, Li Mu really wanted to send Xiaobao back to their village, but when Xiaobao looked directly at him just now, the determination in Xiaobao's eyes made him change his mind.

"As long as you know what's going on!"

Uncle Sheng paused after hearing this and hesitated to speak, but in the end he chose to respect Li Mu's decision.

"You want revenge?"

Li Mu came to Xiaobao and looked at him indifferently.

"yes!"

Xiaobao looked up at Li Mu, his eyes a little dodgey at first, but then became firm.

"Haha, you said you wanted revenge, but the person who turned Dad into a zombie demon has been killed by me, so who do you want to take revenge from? Me?"

Li Mu looked straight at him and asked.

"I heard your conversation with that old man..."

After being quiet for a few seconds, Xiaobao raised his head, looked at Li Mu and said.

Li Mu couldn't help but be a little surprised when he heard what he said. Then he realized that the grandfather he was referring to was Uncle Sheng, and then he even realized that he had overheard his explanation to Uncle Sheng about the origin of the black robe.

After thinking about it, Li Mu couldn't help but slap himself on the head, blaming himself for being too careless. At that time, because Hei Pao's body had just been disposed of, there were people walking around in the room. A child as young as Xiaobao was so light-footed.

Yes, there won't be much movement when walking.

Unexpectedly, he heard Li Mu mention the existence of the Eternal Life Alliance to Uncle Sheng.

"good!"

"You...are really willing to teach me?"

Li Mu's cheerfulness made Xiaobao look at him in astonishment. Although Li Mu had agreed just now, when he was pulled aside by Uncle Sheng to talk, Xiaobao thought that he would never agree to him again.

After all, as he said before, Li Mu was technically his father-killer enemy. He now threatened to learn from his father-killer enemy, and what was even more outrageous was that this man agreed.

"Why do you think I'm unwilling to teach you?"

"Because I killed your father? If it were you, what would you choose?"

Li Mu asked him back. Faced with Li Mu's repeated questions, Xiaobao suddenly fell into silence.

Although Xiaobao is mentally more mature than other children, he didn't know how to respond to Li Mu's question.

"Think carefully about how to answer my question!"

Li Mu stretched out his hand and rubbed Xiaobao's head a few times before leaving, while Xiaobao stared at his leaving figure in a daze.

On the night of the final performance, everyone in the troupe left their residence to perform. Li Mu sat cross-legged on the bed and practiced his luck.

“Tuk-tuk!”

"The door is unlocked!"

A gentle knock on the door made Li Mu wake up from his trance. After he finished speaking, the door was gently pushed open from the outside. Xiaobao stood at the door and looked at him hesitantly.

"come in."

Li Mu got off the bed, walked to a stool on the side, sat down, poured himself a cup of herbal tea, took a sip, and then turned to look at Xiaobao who had already arrived in front of him.

"Do you understand?"

"Um…"

Xiaobao's face looked a little uncomfortable under Li Mu's gaze, but he still nodded slightly when he heard his question.

"Although you killed my father, you did nothing wrong. My father was out of control. If you didn't kill him at that time, your own life would be in danger. My father said, don't do to others what you don't want others to do to you."

"Do you know what this sentence means?"

Li Mu couldn't help but be a little surprised by Xiaobao's answer, and he couldn't help but look at him seriously.

"I know, my dad said, you can't impose on others things you don't like or can't do!"

Xiaobao's eyes were full of reverence when he mentioned his father, and Li Mu had to admit that he still underestimated the children of this era.

Compared with the naughty children of later generations, children at this time, even if they are young, understand the truth more deeply than some adults.

"When did you start teaching me?"

Xiaobao looked at Li Mu with some anxiety and asked, his hands unconsciously clenching his fists and pulling at the corners of his clothes.

"hehe…"

Seeing Xiaobao's nervous look, Li Mu couldn't help but give him a meaningful smile.

…………

"You're cheating!"

Xiaobao looked at Li Mu with an aggrieved face, and a layer of mist gradually rose in his eyes.

"How could I be lying? I said I would teach you, but I didn't say I would teach you now!"

Li Mu confidently stood in the middle of the road with his hands on his hips and said to Xiaobao. The two of them blocked the deserted path one after another.

Xiaobao's face was stained with some dust at some point, making him look dirty. He was also carrying a relatively small luggage on his back.

At this time, they had been separated from Uncle Sheng and his party for about half a month, and Li Mu, with a little kid like Xiao Bao, naturally couldn't go any faster.

Because Xiaobao had been silent and lifeless along the way, just like an autistic child, Li Mu had the idea of ​​teasing him.

But unexpectedly, Xiaobao exploded immediately, and the grievance he felt at being deceived by Li Mu suddenly flooded into his heart.

"You lied to a child!"

"Then you go report it to the official!"

Seeing Li Mu's shameless face and making faces for him, Xiaobao's chest heaved violently with anger, his face was red and his fists were clenched tightly. In the past half month, Li Mu had completely subverted his image in Xiaobao's eyes.

, just like a rogue.

And Li Mu didn't care at all what Xiaobao thought of him, because after his hard work in the past half month, Xiaobao no longer looked as lifeless and lonely as when he first left the town.

They have been walking around for half a month, eating and sleeping in the open air, and passing through some villages and small towns. Their combination of a large and small group has also attracted many people's strange eyes.

In particular, Li Mu packed a small bag for Xiaobao and asked him to carry it behind him, which made some passersby complain when they saw him treating a child like this.

But Li Mu ignored this at all and continued to go his own way.

After a brief quarrel, the two set off again, but this time no matter how Li Mu teased him, Xiaobao just walked behind him without saying a word. Under the sunlight, his face and exposed skin had already

It was darker than before, and his overall mental state was much tougher.

Originally this chapter was to replace last night's chapter, but I just got a new computer today, and then the new hard drive broke and the computer crashed, which wasted a lot of time.
