Chapter 435 The Lost Child

It was night, and it had been more than half a day since Baifeng came here to toast and drink alone, and the proprietress of the store also said that she would be closing to see off customers. Do you want to pay or not?"

"Do you have any guest rooms here?" Bai Feng looked at A Ke drunkenly, but she was talking to another person: "I want a room!"

The woman said: "No, the guest rooms in the small shop are already full. If the guest officer is willing to pay a little more, I can tidy up the stables for you to spend the night..."

"Hahaha!" Bai Feng sneered, "I've been sitting here for so long, why haven't I seen anyone come?"

"Guest officer, you are drunk!" She patted her chest and said, "I swear to God, our hotel's guest rooms are already full, and we definitely don't want to drive you away, A Ke, don't you think so?"

A Ke nodded, not daring to say anything.

"Well, maybe you can sleep more peacefully if you stay with my horse." Bai Feng took out the money bag from the bag, threw it on the proprietress without thinking, and continued: "Look at Take, I'll rest here for a while..."

The woman was so happy that she took out a handful of silver from the purse, then ran to close the door with a smile on her face, and replied: "Guest officer, then I won't bother you. Just give orders if you have anything to do. The girl will take care of it."

As soon as A Ke saw the proprietress walking away, she immediately shook Bai Feng's arm violently and said, "You, you have been cheated! There have been no customers in our store these days."

When Bai Feng stayed at her desk for a while, when A Ke felt tired and wanted to leave, she murmured: "I know, I did it on purpose..."

"What is it on purpose? It's inexplicable... Sure enough, you shouldn't talk to drunk people." A Ke mumbled and went to another place, extinguished the lights, and the surroundings fell into silence.

Baifeng saw the needle, walked into the inn in the dark and inspected it, suddenly, he smelled a light under the stairs connecting the lobby and the second floor, and when he took a closer look, a thin shadow curled up here.

This place was originally a wide hollow area on the left and right, but for some reason, partitions were added from both sides, and the bottom of the stairs was used as the roof to decorate it into a small house.There are bedding, coats and rice bowls in the small house. Although they are very dilapidated, they are also neatly taken care of. Their owners must have had a heart for beauty.

"Is this the place where you rest?" Bai Feng asked.

"Ah?" A Ke hid in the corner with her rice bowl, apparently frightened.

Bai Feng looked at the soup in her rice bowl, it seemed that rice bran mixed with meat dregs was briefly boiled for a few times to satisfy hunger, it was extremely shabby, he didn't have the heart to expose this fact, just took out his own The food hidden in advance was handed to the other party, and said: "I just secretly left this chicken leg, let's eat it!"

"Is this... really okay?" A Ke's pitiful eyes were particularly poignant. What is the reason for her to be treated like this at such a young age?Bai Feng thought in his heart that most of the chicken legs he sent had already been gnawed off.

"Hmm! Delicious! It's so delicious..." A Ke wanted to speak and shed tears first, looked at Bai Feng with teary eyes, and asked, "Why are you being so nice to me? We've only known each other for a day."

Bai Feng said: "Why... probably because I know what it's like to be hungry and cold." Before he finished speaking, someone was plotting from the back of the inn, and Bai Feng's keen intuition told him that he wanted to know His inside story may be in it, so he approached quietly.

"The girl's mother wrote and sent a letter?"

"As usual, not only letters, but also money for us to buy new clothes for her daughter."

"Tsk, we haven't had enough food and clothing yet, so why buy it for her!"

The young swordsman clenched his fists tighter the more he heard it, and his heart was full of disdain, "The couple in the house must be the ones who were entrusted to raise A Ke, but they actually swallowed the things sent by A Ke's mother."

"Sanggong, just wait, I'll go see if that weirdo is awake."

"okay!"

After speaking, Bai Feng went back to A Ke to report the news, saying: "Pack up your things, the lady boss is coming!"

After hearing this, A Ke obediently packed the chicken bones and stuffed them into the bed, and fell asleep; Bai Feng went back to the place where he had been drinking before and continued to lie on his stomach, waiting for the wicked woman to come.

"Guest officer, guest officer?"

Bai Feng acted sleepily, clutching the wine glass and still drinking, even though there was no wine in it: "What, you want to drive me away again?"

"The stables are ready, guest officer, let's go to rest first, it's cold in this place at night."

"Okay, I heard, I'm going now." Bai Feng thought for a while, then turned around and asked: "Wait a minute, isn't the stable cold? I'm drunk, but I'm not stupid!"

The proprietress seemed to be taken aback. Seeing the sword dangling in front of her face, she inevitably felt a little apprehensive in her heart: "Then I'll bring the oven here, and the guest officer will make a living here tonight."

"It's more or less the same." Baifeng sat and waited for a while, and when the oven arrived, he warmed the wine and drank it.That wicked woman had never seen such a person before, seeing that she was happy to serve her, she avoided it.

Seeing that the situation had settled down, Bai Feng immediately moved the oven to the front of the small house where A Ke slept. Seeing this, A Ke opened her eyes wide and said in disbelief: "It's so warm!"

"Tonight, this oven is right in front of your door. Sleep peacefully. I'll watch over it for you. I won't let that wicked woman catch you and punish you." Bai Feng cleared her mind a little, then That is to say, "little sister, how long has it been since you saw your mother?"

"Mother?" A Ke was dazed and didn't know how to answer right away, so she said: "I've never seen Mother before, only the words written by her, from the letters she sent, unfortunately I don't know how to read, Never read it."

"Is that so..." Bai Feng couldn't help sighing after receiving such a helpless answer.

"My aunt and uncle always told me that Mother is a loose woman who left me here in order to marry a better man." Ake burst into tears, shaking her head and denying: "I don't believe it! So, I I have always wanted to learn to read and write, I want to understand my mother's letter by myself, and get to know her by myself."

Bai Feng wiped her tears for her, and said apologetically: "Little sister, I didn't mean to make you sad, just to express my apology, you can rest in peace tonight. I promise, no one will disturb you. "

"Big brother, you are so kind. I have never told anyone about these things... and no one wants to listen to my complaints." A Ke slept in that cramped space. She was the only one here before, cold, lonely, and hopeless. .

Now, a pinch of small flames is slowly rising. Its dazzling light is more dazzling than the sun, and it is even more indescribable. Its gentleness is indescribable, and it gives people strength invisibly.
