Chapter 128 Strange Old Man
Ning Chu stared blankly at Mrs. Hu lying on top of her, but she was already out of breath.

The last words she said just now echoed in her ears, "Help my son."

She knew that she had no position and ability to ask Ning Chu to help her save her son, so she could only use such a decisive way to fight for a chance of life for her son.

Ning Chu's eye sockets felt hot for a while.

She really felt at this moment that maternal love may be the greatest feeling in the world.

But Madam Hu won the bet.

After Ning Chu carried Mrs. Hu's body into the temple, she hurried out of the Beggar's Temple. She was going to find Hu Chengcai, not knowing how he was doing.

As soon as Ning Chu walked out of the street in the south of the city, he saw a familiar face in front of him.

It was Shi Shi who brought his younger brothers, and several of them were carrying a person in a hurry.

Ning Chu was about to go up and ask him if he saw Hu Chengcai, when he saw the face of the person they were carrying turn around.

It was Hu Chengcai she was looking for.

She hurried forward and asked, "What's going on?"

This sound startled those few people.

Shi Shi immediately stood in front of him, looked at Ning Chu, and his tone, which was just about to question, suddenly turned into doubt, "It's you? Why are you here?"

Ning Chu didn't talk nonsense, pointed at Hu Chengcai and said, "His mother asked me to save him."

Hearing this, Hu Chengcai, who had shrunk behind the stone in fright, poked out half of his head immediately, "My mother asked you to come and save me? Is my mother okay?"

Ning Chu was silent.

Hu Chengcai saw Ning Chu quietly looking at him without speaking, and suddenly felt an ominous premonition in his heart.

Ning Chu looked at Shi Shi again, "Why are you running? What happened?"

Shi Shi didn't hide it this time, but told the matter.

It turned out that a group of them were begging for food in the east of the city, and Hu Chengcai happened to be next to him at that time.

While he was begging, suddenly an arrow shot towards Hu Chengcai. Shi Shi was clever, and when he saw this, he pushed Hu Chengcai, but he avoided the arrow.

But another one came right after, and Hu Chengcai became a little vigilant because of the arrow just now, and when he saw another arrow coming, he quickly wanted to hide aside.

However, the injury on his body has not healed, so his actions are not very flexible. Even if he dodged at the first time, he was still shot in the shoulder.

Seeing that there were arrows shooting towards Hu Chengcai, Shitou thought that after all, he was a brother of Beggar Temple, and he couldn't just leave him alone, so he called other younger brothers, carried him and started to escape.

I came here in hiding all the way, thinking of escaping back to the Beggars Temple.

Ning Chu directly rejected their idea.

"Don't go to the Beggar Temple again."

"Why? My mother is still there."

Hu Chengcai's eyes were red with anxiety. Although he had guessed just now, he could continue to deceive himself. Now Ning Chu's words undoubtedly confirmed his guess.

Seeing him like this, Ning Chu pursed his lips and said, "Your mother's only wish is that you can live."

"No, you're lying to me, aren't you? You must be lying to me. My mother is fine. When I left in the morning, I promised her that I would definitely bring her steamed buns today. She hasn't eaten yet and I brought them back. Where are the steamed buns?"

Hu Chengcai didn't want to believe that his only relative left him like this. That was the mother who loved him the most. He had already become like this, and he had lost hope of living a long time ago. To live in such shame.

He tremblingly took out a steamed bun from his bosom with his uninjured hand, which he just begged for this morning, and he was going to go back after asking for another one, because if there was only one steamed bun, his mother would definitely He was reluctant to eat, so he wanted to try to see if he could get two, so that they could each have one.

"Mom, I should go back early. You haven't eaten the steamed buns I promised to bring you. Are you hungry?"

Hu Chengcai stared blankly at the steamed bun in his hand, murmuring softly, tears falling silently.

When Shitou and the others saw this scene, their eyes turned red.

Several of them are orphans, and they have been begging in the Beggar Temple since they can remember.

Although I don't know what it's like to have parents, but looking at Hu Chengcai like this, thinking of what happened to me, I feel sad for a while.

Ning Chu also felt uncomfortable, since he was also an orphan in his previous life, he couldn't see such a scene the most.

"Let's find a place to hide first, it's not safe here."

She was afraid that the killer who was in the beggar's temple just now would chase here.

Upon hearing this, Shitou and the others hurriedly carried Hu Chengcai, who was still immersed in the grief of losing his mother, and followed Ning Chu to hide.

Several people hid in an alley.

Shi Shi looked at Hu Chengcai's injury with hesitation, "If his injury is not treated, his arm may be useless.

Ning Chu also knows this, but where can I find a doctor now?

Shi Shi suddenly thought of a person, "I know a doctor not far from here, and his medical skills are not bad, so I can go there first."

"Is this person reliable?"

Ning Chu was a little worried.

"It should be considered reliable, and no matter how unreliable it is, it is more reliable than those who hunted down."

The stone is somewhat uncertain.

That's true, no matter how unreliable she is, she won't want to kill someone.

"Then what's the nonsense, just go."

Saying that, she took the lead and walked out.

Shitou and the others hurriedly carried people up and followed, and Shitou ran to the front to lead the way.

It's not far, but it's back to the south of the city.

Following the stone, he made a detour for a while, and finally arrived at the door of a shop.

As soon as Shi Shi was about to go in, Ning Chu stopped him, looked at the two white lanterns hanging at the door, and said hesitantly: "It seems that someone in this house has passed away, so it's not good for us to go in now?"

Shi Shi followed Ning Chu's line of sight, and suddenly smiled, "You don't know it. This shop has always been like this. Ever since the old man came over, there has been a white lantern hanging at the door. We are all used to it."

After speaking, he went straight to the door.

Ning Chu was a little speechless when he heard the words, what kind of habit is this?
I have never seen a white lantern hanging at the door of my house, how unlucky it is.

But knowing that no one died, she didn't hesitate any longer, and followed in.

The door of the shop is very narrow, just enough to accommodate the width of a person.

Walking into the shop, the inside is also pitch black, only some light comes in through the narrow door.

As far as the eye could see, there was no one there.

It would be a bit scary to come here alone at night.

Shi Shi tentatively called out: "Old man, old man, there is a business coming."

Still nothing.

"Is no one here?"

Ning Chu was puzzled.

Shitou shook his head, and shouted again: "Old man, some wine and meat are coming."

"Where is where? Where is the wine and meat?"

Before everyone could react, a figure appeared beside them, circling around them at this time, as if looking for the wine and meat in Shishi's mouth.
