“It won’t hurt to sneak a look.” Feng Ye pouted with a defiant face.
“It’s out of the question.” Zhao Yang insisted. He remained unmoved and kept pulling Feng Ye to move forward. “Walk quickly. We can’t stay here for long.”
Feng Ye could only suppress his curiosity and followed him to leave this place quickly. Although he was very curious, he also knew that they could do nothing with their combat strengths. It was more important to protect themselves and kept themselves alive than to take care of others.
The two of them walked faster and faster. Gradually, they couldn’t hear the sound of fighting anymore. They walked along the path and managed to see a small village before dark.
“Let’s find lodging there! We’ll leave tomorrow.” Feng Ye cheered up after seeing the small village.
“We brought a small tent.” Zhao Yang replied. He would rather sleep in his own small tent than in a small village.
“Sunny, it’s a small village. There’s no danger. Let’s go, let’s go!” Knowing what he was worried about, Feng Ye pulled him and ran to the small village.
“Uncle, can we spend the night here?” Feng Ye asked a man who opened the door with the appearance of a small adult.
The big man was stunned when he opened the door. He looked at the children in front of him then looked behind them. “Just the two of you? Where is the adult in your family?”
Feng Ye smiled with his eyes narrowed and looked at the man in front of him. “Uncle, it’s just the two of us. The adults in our family didn’t follow.”
“Is that so! Come in, then!” The man’s eyes flashed. He opened the door and let them in.
Zhao Yang saw the flickers in the big man’s eyes. He frowned slightly, but he didn’t say anything as he followed Feng Ye into the house. When he entered, he looked inside warily and saw that the front and back part of this humble house was connected and there seemed to be only this man in the house.
“Uncle, do you have food in your house? Can you get us some? We can pay you.”
Feng Ye said, sitting at the table with the appearance of a little adult, smiling with his eyes narrowed to a squint at the man whose eyes lit up at the word ‘money’. Feng Ye asked again, “Uncle, are you alone in your family?”
As soon as the big man heard that they had money, he cut the meat marinated in soy sauce he personally prepared and served it to them. He also made two bowls of rice and a green vegetable soup for them.
While sitting on the side, the big man examined the two children stealthily. Especially when looking at Feng Ye, the man gave more scrutiny. “Where are you kids from? Why are you travelling alone?”
“Uncle, we are not travelling alone.” Feng Ye said innocently, “My father told us to go out and experience hards.h.i.+ps, but let me tell you something.”
His voice dropped a little and he leaned close to the man with a mysterious air. “My father sent powerful people to protect us. They’re watching from a secret place.”
Hearing this, the big man was startled. He jumped up from the chair and looked at the surroundings in panic but he saw nothing.
He was a loafer. He didn’t do anything decent every day. Seeing these two kids turn up in this place and look so refined, he thought that they would sell for a lot of money. But, unexpectedly…
The child’s careless remark made him break out in a cold sweat. That was a close call, but luckily he just thought about it and hadn’t done anything yet…
