Chapter Thirty-Eight: The Disappeared Xiao Ding and Xiao Li
"It's not that easy to kill me, Mo Xing!"
Mo Xing rolled down and escaped from being trampled to death by Mu Chen. A layer of fighting energy gauze immediately appeared on his body, but as soon as he stood up, a black-silver light replaced the world in his eyes.
Clang!
Mu Chen twirled the black sword in his hand and accurately inserted it into the scabbard behind his back.
Looking at the body with separated heads, Mu Chen slowly shook his head and said, "I'm sorry, it's so easy to kill you."
With a kick, a long knife on the ground immediately broke through the air. There was a sound of flesh being pierced in the distance, and then a corpse fell to the ground.
Turning around, he looked at Qing Lin, who was almost curled up together, with tears filling his watery eyes like glazed gemstones.
Mu Chen's eyes fell on her clothes, whose original color was almost indistinguishable, and her exposed hands and feet were covered with blue and purple scars.
Mu Chen was stunned for a moment. He first restrained the murderous aura from his body, and then walked towards the poor little girl.
"Yeah," Qing Lin hurriedly took a few steps back, but there was a wall behind her. She had no way to retreat and fell to the ground. Because of fear, her petite body trembled and her big watery eyes started to move again.
Tears flow.
"Stop crying. If you cry, you'll look like a little cat. That won't be cute."
Mu Chen bent over and stretched out his palm with a smile on his face.
Qing Lin was stunned, her sobbing tears stopped immediately, and she looked at the boy in front of her, who was several years older than her, with a strange expression. He didn't insult or beat her like the others.
Perhaps it was the kind smile on Mu Chen's face that infected Qing Lin. Qing Lin cowardly stretched out her dirty little hand, just looking at the green scales on her arm. Qing Lin's eyes dimmed again. She just thought
She retracted her little hand, but in the next moment a warm palm caught her shrinking hand and pulled her up.
"This young master, don't you... hate Qing Lin?" Qing Lin whispered.
Because she has the blood of humans and snakes, Qing Lin has always been the object of ridicule by everyone in Stone Desert City. This is the first time she has seen someone who still doesn't have any disgust in his eyes after coming into contact with her.
"How could it be? Xiao Qinglin is so cute. He only makes people like him, so how can he make others hate him? I like him very much.
Xiao Qinglin, you can follow me from now on, and you don’t have to care about other people’s colored eyes. People always live for themselves.”
After walking out of the alley, Mu Chen had no plans to join the Motie Mercenary Group. When people on both sides of the street saw Qing Lin beside Mu Chen, they all showed disgust, but their humiliating words had not left their mouths.
He was shocked back by Mu Chen's aura.
When passing by a restaurant, the aroma of the food penetrated into the street.
Gulu!
Qing Lin lowered her head in embarrassment and looked at her toes timidly. She hadn't eaten anything decent in three days.
Looking at Qing Lin's embarrassed look, especially the way she raised her little face from time to time and looked nervously at herself, as if she was afraid that she would lose her.
Those pitiful eyes seemed to be saying: "I'm hungry... I want to eat..."
Mu Chen couldn't help but rub Qinglin's turquoise hair. Little Qinglin was so cute.
Mu Chen smiled and said, "Let's go, we have arrived at the Tagor Desert, and I am here to taste the delicacies in the desert."
Don't worry, I can't bear to sell you, I just need to take care of you." Mu Chenhao said arrogantly.
Taking Qing Lin into the hotel, Mu Chen waved his hand, and there were thousands of gold coins on the counter. Mu Chen said domineeringly, "I'll take care of your hotel today, and give me all the food you can make in the restaurant."
Last time.
Don’t repeat it.”
Soon after, Mu Chen looked at Qing Lin, who was lying on the dining table, viciously eating the food. It seemed that Qing Lin was really hungry these days.
Shaking his head in pity, Mu Chen placed a glass of water in front of Qing Lin, pushed it, and said softly, "Eat slowly, no one will fight with you, drink some water, don't choke."
Mu Chen tasted a table full of dishes. After reaching the realm of Dou Shi, he could absorb the energy from the world to replenish his own consumption. He did not need to eat frequently to replenish the energy his body needed.
Half an hour later, Mu Chen looked dumbfounded as he looked at the green scales on his belly that was already round but still holding on to the food and trying to wipe it out. He couldn't help but smile and said, "Forget it if you can't eat it. I can guarantee that I will be able to eat these things every day from now on."
Don't worry about me spending money.
I have money..." Mu Chen squeezed the last three words out from the gap between his lips.
"Thank you, Master, for your gift. Qinglin finally understands what it feels like after eating."
A short sentence, but it expresses countless bitterness.
"Master, please let Qing Lin follow you. Qing Lin can wash clothes, cook, and is very capable of working." However, looking at the messy table, Qing Lin quickly waved his little hand and said, "Qing Lin actually eats very little every day.
, Qinglin doesn’t need any wages, as long as he has food to eat every day.”
Looking at Qing Lin, who is holding her little hands coyly and looking forward to him, and those glass-like eyes, one can't help but feel pity for her.
Mu Chen smiled and said softly, "Xiao Qinglin, didn't I just say that you should just follow me from now on.
There is no need to be reserved in front of me, I am not a man-eating monster."
Mu Chen seemed to have remembered something, and asked, "By the way, didn't Xiao Qinglin live in the Motie mercenary group before? Did they bully you?"
Mu Chen was indeed confused. Although the Desert Iron Mercenary Group did not like Qing Lin in the original work, with the relationship between Xiao Ding and Xiao Li, they would not drive Qing Lin out and let her live on the street.
"Qing Lin doesn't know what happened, but Master Xiao Ding, the commander of the first regiment, and Master Xiao Li, the commander of the second regiment, suddenly disappeared three days ago.
Then, the people in the regiment thought it was the bad luck brought by Qing Lin, so they drove Qing Lin away."
Qing Lin said with some disappointment, after all, the Motie Mercenary Group is her home, and she has been living there for so many years, even if others don't like her.
But Qinglin's words made Mu Chen fall into deep thought.
"Xiao Ding and Xiao Li disappeared! This shouldn't happen. Could it be that the two of them went back to the Xiao family in Wutan City, but didn't they have to wait in Shimo City for Xiao Yan to come over in the timeline?
Could it be another unknown change!"
Closing his eyes slightly, a pair of purple eyes like stars appeared in his mind, but Mu Chen immediately removed those eyes from his mind.
After leaving the restaurant, Mu Chen healed Qing Lin's injuries with elixirs, and then took Qing Lin through the city. After a while, Qing Lin, who was originally like a little beggar, took on a new look.
Wearing a suitable and elegant green dress, paired with a delicate and cute oval face, her small arms are as white and delicate as a lotus root, her watery green eyes are plump, her petite body only reaches Mu Chen's chest, and she is so cute
Her face was as red as a porcelain doll carved from pink and jade, and her timid appearance was like a frightened little white rabbit, which made people feel pity in their hearts.
"You can't tell, but our little Qinglin is so cute, just like a little princess.
Oh, you’re even shy, it’s so cute.”
Mu Chen joked, he couldn't help but rub Qinglin's hair, and when he concentrated, he saw three tiny green dots in Qinglin's green pupils.
"The green snake and three-flowered pupils are the same as the Little Medical Fairy, and they have a physique of the highest level.
But it is still in an unstimulated state, and the Green Barbarians and Black Fangs from the Snake Mansion should not have arrived yet, so we only need to be careful of that perverted old guy from the Mo family."
Suddenly, the sound of chaotic footsteps interrupted Mu Chen's contemplation. Dozens of mercenary men were seen rushing from the corner of the street. Each of them had sharp weapons on their bodies, and their targets were Mu Chen and Mu Chen in front of them.
