Chapter 85: You have to kneel down when you want to eat.
"Yeah, you're awake."
A dark face came over, startling Leng Fengjue. He subconsciously wanted to get up, but found that he couldn't move.
After recovering from the panic, I realized that it was the face of a child, with some black ash smeared on it.
After Leng Fengjue breathed a sigh of relief, he looked inside his body and found that there were many hidden wounds in his body. In addition to the damage caused by the Burning God Silk and the disappearance of the black moon, he was now almost a useless person due to various reasons.
The injury was difficult to heal. Leng Fengjue knew that he would have to hide here for a while, so he looked at the little girl and asked: "Did you save me?"
The little girl nodded, "I brought you back that day when I saw you lying on the roadside. I also saw a man in red clothes who seemed to be looking for something."
Leng Fengjue's face changed slightly when he heard this, and he thought to himself: If we don't return to this mortal world, do we really want to kill them all?
Then he thought that he had killed the other party's best friend, and that the other party deserved it. All this was his own fault.
Leng Fengjue showed a wry smile and said, "Thank you very much. What's your name?"
"Xiao Yu, grandma has always called me that." The little girl pointed at the wall and said.
Leng Fengjue looked in the direction of her finger and saw two stick figures, one large and one small, drawn with charcoal on the wall. He asked uncertainly: "Is this... your grandma?"
"Yes, grandma has been accompanying Xiaoyu by her side. By the way, big brother, what's your name?" The little girl smiled sweetly. She didn't know whether she didn't understand or was hiding her sadness.
It was obvious that the little girl's grandmother was no longer here, but looking at the little girl's completely unsentimental look, for some reason, Leng Feng felt a twinge of determination.

What does this feel like? He has never felt this way before.
Dandan said a name, "Leng Fengjue."
"Leng Fengjue?" Xiaoyu repeated, and then said happily: "Well, brother Leng, you lie down here and have a good rest. Xiaoyu will go find you some food and come back."
After saying this, without waiting for Leng Fengjue to speak, Xiaoyu left the house in a bounding motion, seemingly very happy to have someone to talk to.
After Xiaoyu left, Leng Fengjue once again felt the violent and cold consciousness in his mind, but this time it was not very strong.
In order to suppress this consciousness, Leng Fengjue took the initiative to use his spiritual consciousness to stir the burning thread in his mind. Suddenly, a searing pain came and his mind became clear again.
This move consumed a lot of energy on his part. His forehead was covered with sweat and he was panting slightly.
Looking at the sky through the hole in the roof, he couldn't feel the breath of the black moon at all. It was probably because he had disobeyed orders before and the King of Hell no longer cared about him.
With a helpless sigh, Leng Fengjue, who had nothing to do, could only use his Yuan Gong to repair his injured body to pass the time, hoping to regain his ability to move quickly.
The time of practicing always passed by unconsciously. With each breath, the day passed quickly, the sky gradually became dark, and Leng Fengjue slowly opened his eyes.
Not seeing the little girl, Leng Fengjue was a little worried.
Why are you looking for something to eat? It took so long for you to come back?
Just as Leng Fengjue was waiting anxiously, he finally saw Xiao Yu coming back.
"Brother Leng, brother Leng, look what I brought back."
Without waiting for Leng Fengjue's reply, Xiaoyu took out two large sweet potatoes from behind as if offering a treasure.
"Why did you come back so late?" Leng Fengjue asked coldly.
"There is no market in the village today. I went to help grandma dig sweet potatoes. I came back so late. I'm sorry..." Xiaoyu whispered, her voice like a mosquito's moan.
"I'm sorry, I was worried about you. You're a little kid out here for so long..." Realizing that there might be something wrong with his tone, Leng Fengjue's expression softened a little.
Hearing this, Xiao Yu laughed.
"Tonight, let's eat roasted sweet potatoes."
Not long after, Xiaoyu brought the roasted sweet potatoes to Leng Fengjue's mouth.
Leng Fengjue wanted to refuse, but when he saw the expectant look in her eyes, he opened his mouth to eat some. During this period, he saw Xiaoyu's scarred hands, and an inexplicable flash appeared in his eyes.
I secretly vowed to leave when he gets better...
Early the next morning, Leng Fengjue woke up from practice and Xiaoyu was no longer there.
But he was used to it. After so many days together, he found that Xiaoyu went out early every day. It was hard to imagine what such a young child would go through alone.
However, it was only noon today, and suddenly there was a loud noise outside the door. After these days of cultivation, he was able to move around easily, so Leng Fengjue reluctantly came to the door.
"You bitch, since you dare to come to our property to beg, you have to pay protection fees."
Three teenagers of thirteen or fourteen years old surrounded Xiao Yu in the middle. These people were orphans like Xiao Yu, but they were luckier and had reached the age to be self-reliant when their parents died.
But they didn't want to work, so these teenagers teamed up and became famous gangsters in the village.
"Yes, I'm sorry..." Xiaoyu apologized timidly.
The market wasn't open today, so she couldn't get anything to eat. In the past, she would have endured it and gone there. But thinking that there was a patient at home, she wanted to beg for some food in the village, but she didn't expect to be targeted by these people.
"Is that okay if I'm sorry? If everyone is like you, where will we put our face?" A young man at the head said and raised his hand.
"Stop." Leng Feng leaned against the doorframe and shouted angrily.
"Brother Leng."
Seeing Leng Feng's fight, Xiao Yu didn't know where she got the strength to push away the boy who was two or three times older than her.
Coming to his side, Xiaoyu asked with concern: "Why did you come out?"
"It turns out there is another person."
"Looks like he's still a sick man..."
"Ha ha..."
The three people gathered around again.
One of them took out two copper coins from his arms and tossed them, "Since you like begging so much, why not kneel down and beg from us? Maybe we will let you go as soon as we are happy."
Xiaoyu didn't hesitate at all when he heard the words. He knelt down with a plop and banged his head on the ground, making a "dongdong" sound, as if he was afraid of these older teenagers.
"Brothers, please be kind and let us go."
"Xiao Yu, what are you doing? Get up quickly." Leng Fengjue shouted, but found that Xiao Yu was unmoved.
I saw Xiaoyu raise her head, tears already covering her cheeks, "Brother, you have to kneel down when begging!"
You have to kneel when begging for food!
This sentence seemed to stimulate Leng Fengjue, Xiaoyu was only a five-year-old child.
Leng Fengjue's eyes glowed with a strange red light, he pulled Xiaoyu up and hugged her into his arms. Along with a purple light, the sound of breaking through the air was heard amidst the other party's laughter.
Immediately, three headless corpses fell down, and pillars of blood spewed bright red all over the ground.
This scene happened to be seen by a passing villager.
"Killing, killing..."
The villagers fled the scene in panic.
Leng Fengjue, on the other hand, buried Xiaoyu's head in his arms to prevent her from seeing this bloody scene.
Then, without waiting for other villagers to hear the news and come over, they endured their injuries and left the village with Xiao Yu.
