Fights Break Sphere: Purple Thunder Emperor

Chapter 69 Qinglin's Buns

The little girl was about eleven or twelve years old. She looked a little awkward and stood there at a loss.

Seeing the young man in black looking at her, there was a hint of uneasiness in his clean and clear eyes. He held the paper bag tightly in his hands and lowered his head lower and lower.

"Don't be nervous, what's your name?"

Hearing the gentle voice, the little girl mustered up a little courage and answered softly:
"Qingqinglin!"

"Okay, Qinglin, look at him!" Xiao Bai pointed at the big man who was standing there in cold sweat.

Qinglin raised his head and looked in the direction of his finger. The moment he saw the big man, his body trembled and he quickly lowered his head, not daring to look him in the face.

"Don't lower your head, lift it up!" The originally gentle voice suddenly became stern.

Qinglin's heart trembled and he was a little scared. He mustered up the courage to raise his head, but when he saw the big man, he closed his eyes again.

"Don't close your eyes, keep them open!" The voice was still serious.

Xiao Qinglin was about to cry. She didn't know what the person who saved her was going to do. She suppressed her fear and opened her eyes slightly with trembling.

"Do you hate him?" Xiao Bai didn't care how much she opened her eyes, he just needed to look at her.

Qinglin shook her little head mission-wise when she heard that. She didn't dare to hate her mother. When her mother was alive, she taught her to be tolerant in everything, so that she could survive here.

And she has always done this, allowing herself to be beaten and scolded.

At first she tried to beg, but now she didn't want to do that anymore, because the more she spoke, the happier those people seemed to be, and the longer they beat her.

"Want to kill him?"

Although Xiao Bai's voice was soft this time, Xiao Qinglin was shocked. Killing someone, she had never thought of killing anyone before.

She couldn't help but look at the big man, she saw pleading in his eyes. Qinglin was very familiar with this look, she used to look at the people who beat her and the onlookers with this look.

But no one stood up, she knew how desperate that feeling was!
Biting his lips, Qinglin didn't know what he felt at the moment. Hatred? Empathy? .
She didn't know. She was only eleven years old and no one had taught her what to do. All her mother taught her was to be tolerant.

"Qinglin doesn't know, but Qinglin doesn't want to kill anyone!"

For the first time in her life, the little girl shouted out her true thoughts to someone other than her mother, and she didn't know where she got the courage from.

After shouting, she felt a little scared again, and looked at the young man in black out of the corner of her eye nervously.

"Okay! Then I won't kill you!" Xiao Bai looked at her with a smile and nodded.

It doesn’t matter whether this man kills or not, he just wants this poor little girl to not be so frightened and anxious.

"roll!"

The big man felt as if he was hit by a dull blow in the chest. He spat out a mouthful of blood and flew backwards.

But he didn't care at all. He endured the pain in his chest, quickly got up and kowtowed, saying, "Thank you, sir. Thank you, sir!" After that, he stood up and stumbled away.

Xiao Bai looked around, walked towards the stone steps at the side, and sat down directly without paying attention to the yellow sand on it.

He waved to Qinglin who was standing there and pointed next to him.

Seeing this, Qinglin knew that the young man in black was calling her over. After thinking about it, she realized that this young man was the first person who helped her when she was beaten since she grew up. She was no longer so afraid and walked up to him in small steps.

"Come and sit next to me, why are you standing there like an idiot?" Qing Lin had no choice but to sit down on the stone steps next to him. Xiao Bai turned his head to look at the little girl who was dressed a little simply. There were some patches on her green dress, but it was sewn very well, and it was obvious that the person who had mended it put a lot of effort into it.

"What are you holding in your hand? Why didn't you let go even when you were beaten?" Xiao Bai asked curiously when he saw that she was still holding the paper bag in both hands.

"Baozi!" Qinglin lowered his head and answered in a low voice.

Xiao Bai saw the dust on the bag, but the little girl was still holding it tightly, which showed that the buns in the bag were very important to her.

He couldn't help but sigh in his heart. This girl was a hybrid of snake people and humans. Originally, snake people and humans could not produce offspring, but there was a small chance of giving birth to babies. Such babies usually did not live beyond the age of two, but Qinglin was an exception.

She is eleven years old this year, so she is regarded as cursed. And because the snake people and humans on this border are sworn enemies, Qinglin also bears the discrimination and disgust from both sides. After all, she is just an innocent little girl.

"Can you treat me to a bun?" Xiao Bai said with a smile.

Seeing that she didn't react, he teased, "Why, you can't bear to part with it?"

Qing Lin was a little anxious when he heard this, afraid that he might misunderstand, so he hurriedly shook his head timidly at him: "It's dirty!"

"Don't be afraid. It doesn't matter if the surface is dirty, as long as the heart is clean!" Xiao Bai said meaningfully.

Qinglin was a little confused after hearing this, as if he understood, but also as if he didn't. However, seeing that he insisted on having it, he had to carefully open the paper package, picked out the cleanest-looking bun from the three buns, and handed it to him a little embarrassedly.

She had no money on her, otherwise she would have wanted to buy something new for the young man who was so kind to her.

After handing it to Xiao Bai, Qing Lin looked at Hai Bodong beside him, thought for a moment, then picked out the one with the least dust on it and handed it to him timidly.

"Grandpa, do you want it?"

Hai Bodong looked at the girl in front of him who was expectant yet a little timid, and felt a little helpless. He didn't know what Xiao Bai was up to, and couldn't help but look at him.

Xiao Bai pretended that he didn't exist and cleaned the sand off the buns, thinking silently in his heart:
"It's a good opportunity that's been handed to me. It depends on whether you, an old man, can catch it or not!"

In the end, Hai Bodong took the bun from Qinglin's hand and sat on the steps.

If it was an ordinary little girl, he would not bother to take the bun, but Xiao Bai obviously treated this little girl differently, so he had to follow suit.

The three of them sat on the steps by the roadside and started eating, ignoring the gazes of passers-by.

Xiao Bai and Hai Bodong completely ignored what those people thought of them, while Qing Lin kept his head down and didn't look at those people.

She was very happy today because there was finally someone who didn't look down on her and ate with her. This was the first time someone was willing to eat with her since her mother left.

The buns were covered in sand and dust, but she thought today's buns were particularly delicious.

Even though the two people next to her had eaten two days' worth of her food rations and would be hungry for the next two days, she didn't care.

Xiao Bai felt that the girl next to him was a little more lively than before, and a smile flashed in his eyes.

"Let's go! You treat me to buns and I'll treat you to a meal! How about it?" Xiao Bai looked at the little girl and smiled.

Qinglin shook her head. She could feel that this young man was a good man, the best person she had ever met, but she couldn't go.

Her buns were very valuable to her, but to this young man, they were something he would not even look at on a normal day. It was already very good that he did not despise them, and he did not dare to ask for more.
