Chapter 313 The Blind Old Man and Xiu'er
Chapter 313 The Blind Old Man and Xiu'er
In the real world, Jiang Yao can eat delicious food and drink spicy drinks every day, and even, as long as he wants, he can have a different beautiful girl accompany him every night without any big problems.
In this unknown world of gods and warriors, he could only stay in this dilapidated temple in the wilderness, with the cold wind howling outside and mummies as his companions next door.
Just by being touched, the mummy turned into ashes.
If he continues to live in such an environment and such a hard life, he might get used to it, but the problem is that he is not from this world, but comes from the real world where all kinds of materials are extremely abundant.
"If you spend one year here, ten years will have passed in the real world."
"I hope I can be lucky enough to save up 20 years of life as soon as possible so that I can return to the outside world sooner."
"Otherwise, if I delay for too long, by the time I return, everything will have changed."
……
With a bitter look on his face, Jiang Yao sighed.
"Tap... tap... tap..." The sound of footsteps suddenly sounded and reached his ears.
"Who?" He who was sitting against the earth wall shouted softly and stood up with a bang.
After asking, he got no response, and moved as fast as the wind, heading in the direction where the footsteps came from.
In just a few steps, he had run out of the ruined temple and appeared in the wilderness outside.
Tall trees can be seen occasionally, but overgrown weeds are everywhere in the wilderness.
The whistling cold wind swept across the earth, passing through the grass, and the strange sounds it brought with it were like the howling of ghosts and wolves, giving people a chilling feeling.
Looking around, it was difficult to see the end of the wilderness at a glance. There was a faint green light or a strange blood light looming in the weeds in the distance, flashing in Jiang Yao's eyes from time to time.
The wilderness shrouded in darkness is full of risks, as monsters and strange creatures often wreak havoc there.
When he was in Xujia Town, Jiang Yao already had some understanding of this.
He was too lazy to find out who the owners of those green and bloody lights were. As long as they didn't get close to the dilapidated temple where he was, they would just go their separate ways.
When he was in the ruined temple, Jiang Yao could hear the sound of footsteps clearly.
But now, after he walked out, the voice disappeared inexplicably and no trace of it could be found at all.
"It is impossible that I heard it wrong."
"It's late at night, and in a dilapidated temple in the wild, and suddenly there are footsteps. This is obviously very abnormal."
"Could it be that there is something strange in this dilapidated temple where I am?"
With a frown on his face, Jiang Yao circled around the dilapidated temple several times.
Still finding nothing, he returned to the ruined temple and sat down beside the bonfire that was still burning beside the earth wall.
It was not until this moment that he discovered that two figures, one old and one young, had appeared on the other wall about ten steps away from him.
The old man had white hair and beard, and was blind. His eyes were empty and there was no trace of spirit in them.
He was holding a erhu in his hand, and his linen clothes were covered with patches.
The little girl next to him was as thin as a bean sprout, her hair was messy like a chicken coop, and her clothes were also tattered.
"Grandpa, I haven't eaten for a long time. I'm hungry..."
Jiang Yao, who was looking at them eagerly, seemed to be ignored by the little girl.
Looking pitiful, she touched the blind old man beside her and begged desperately.
"Where is there anything to eat in this place?"
"Good Xiu'er, strange Xiu'er, if you are hungry, just bear with it for now, don't be anxious."
"If you want to eat, grandpa can help you think of a way!" His eyes were still empty and the blind old man sighed several times.
After comforting the little girl named Xiu'er, he stood up hesitantly.
He moved his feet and walked to the fire where Jiang Yao was. He looked a little timid and said, "Guest, do you want to listen to some music?"
"I'll play the erhu and my granddaughter will sing for you. You don't need to spend a penny. Just give me some food!"
As he spoke, he carefully sat down by the fire.
Holding the headstock of the instrument with one hand and getting into position, he tried to pull the bow and pluck the strings.
There was a "Sizzle..." The sound was so sharp and thin, it was extremely harsh to the ears.
"Get out!" Jiang Yao stared coldly at the blind old man in front of him and only uttered one word.
He couldn't tell for the time being whether the old man and the young man were human or ghosts.
He only knew that when he was just taking a walk outside, these two people suddenly appeared in the dilapidated temple, which must be no simple matter.
If they were ghosts, they should have been lurking in this dilapidated temple all along.
If they were human, they would definitely have some strength. After all, an ordinary grandfather and grandson singing for money would not have the ability to walk in the wilderness at night.
Because he was not sure about the specific strength of the grandfather and grandson, at this moment, Jiang Yao simply told the blind old man to get out, but did not act rashly.
"Brother, Xiu'er sings very well." "The night is long and I can't sleep. I always need to find some fun to pass the time. Let Xiu'er sing a song for you!"
"If you think Xiu'er's singing is pleasing to the ear, just give her something to eat."
Xiu'er, the little girl as small as a bean sprout, followed the blind old man closely and sat down next to the fire.
She brushed the messy hair off her forehead, smiled at Jiang Yao and begged.
Although Xiu'er is a little thin, she has red lips and white teeth and a pretty face.
In a few years, when she has grown up, she should be a real beauty.
"I don't want to listen to any music. I suggest you two stay away from me."
"If you continue to whine in front of me, someone might die." With a blank expression, Jiang Yao shifted his gaze from the blind old man to Xiu'er.
If he met such a singing grandfather and grandson in a teahouse in Xujia Town, he would not mind spending a little money to let these two performers sing a song for him.
But this place is a dilapidated temple in the wilderness, and it is already very strange that such a grandfather and grandson appear here.
Jiang Yao's nerves are not that thick when it comes to listening to the other person singing.
"Brother, Xiu'er has been hungry for a long time. Listen, my stomach has been rumbling all the time."
"Are you really so cruel and stingy that you won't give Xiu'er any food?"
"Please, give me something to eat and let Xiuer sing a song for you..."
Her big eyes blinked, and to prove how hungry she was, Xiu'er actually lifted up her tattered clothes, revealing her small belly that was so hungry that her chest was sticking to her back.
But before she could finish her words, Jiang Yao, who had been sitting against the earth wall, suddenly jumped up.
"Listen to the music, I listen to your mother!"
"I have warned you two several times to stop bothering me, but you two still do as you please and ignore my words."
"You want to die, right? Fine, I'll help you!"
Jiang Yao rushed to Xiu'er, stretched out his big hand, grabbed her head and pressed it to the ground.
He clenched his other hand into a fist and threw several punches in succession.
The area on Xiu'er's chest was not just flesh and blood, even the bones had been completely shattered by him.
"The way of heaven is unfair and the sky is blind!"
"Xiu'er is just a child, she is very hungry, she just wants to ask you for something to eat, how can you be so ruthless as to challenge her?"
"This world really doesn't allow ordinary people like us to survive!"
……
The blind old man is just blind, but he is not deaf.
He heard Xiu'er's screams before her death and the sound of Jiang Yao's fist falling. Although he couldn't see the specific situation, he had already figured out what had happened.
With tears streaming down his face, he howled as if he was crazy. He threw the erhu in his hand aside and pounded the ground with his fists.
"Old thing, why are you yelling? Go die too." Although it was beyond Jiang Yao's expectation that Xiu'er was killed so easily, he had already done it and there was no time for him to regret it.
With a sinister laugh, he rushed in front of the blind old man and punched him several times, landing on the blind old man's head.
The blind old man's body tilted and he fell into a pool of blood, with red and white fluids flowing all over the ground.
"Are this old man and this young boy really ordinary people? This is impossible?" Jiang Yao retracted his fist and looked at the two corpses on the ground, his face full of confusion.
He didn't know how far this dilapidated temple was from other villages and towns, but he knew that it was at least thirty or forty miles away from Xujia Town.
In the middle of the night, how could an ordinary singing grandfather and grandson have the ability to run from the nearby villages to this dilapidated temple?
Just when Jiang Yao was puzzled, Xiu'er's body on the ground began to merge into the earth at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Similar changes were also occurring on the body of the blind old man, although a little later.
"I knew that this pair of grandfather and grandson would definitely not be ordinary people."
"After death, the flesh and blood merge into the earth. This is clearly a characteristic of some weird creature."
Jiang Yao stepped hard on the remaining body of the blind old man, trying to stop them from disappearing.
It's a pity that his action didn't do anything useful.
In just a few blinks of an eye, the bodies of the blind old man and Xiu'er had completely disappeared.
The ground next to the campfire was still the same as when Jiang Yao first sat here.
It was as if everything that had just happened was an illusion, as if the singing grandfather and grandson had never appeared here.
"Guest, would you like to listen to some music?"
"I'll play the erhu and my granddaughter will sing for you. You don't need to spend a penny. Just give me some food!"
Jiang Yao had just sat down when two figures appeared about ten steps away.
Holding an erhu in his hand, the blind old man staggered towards Jiang Yao again.
