C100 The Pub

In the quiet Emerald Jade Valley, a few dark clouds had appeared in the blue sky. The north wind whistled through the air, and the heavy snow danced in the air.

At the entrance of a dark and bottomless cave, the black pool water had long been covered by snow. The corpses on the ground were also buried deep within, and there were five clear piles of corpses.

At this time, on the snow, a yellow-skinned deer swiftly flashed across the snow. Following closely was a black arrow. Whoosh! It tore through the air and drew a perfect arc in the snow. It went straight into the deer's body, and the boiling hot blood of the deer flowed out. It seeped into the snow and melted part of it.

In the distance, an old man wearing a shabby winter jacket and holding a longbow walked over from afar.

When he saw the dying deer on the ground, his old face revealed a smile that he had not seen for a long time. In an instant, the corners of his eyes were full of wrinkles.

"Recently, it has been hard on Ting'er this child! This time, there is finally something that can give her some nutrition!"

The old man happily walked forward and pulled out a sharp dagger from his boot. He prepared to make some simple processing of the deer and then bring it back home to make a sumptuous meal.

At that moment, a pile of snow not far away gently moved. The old man thought that it was another deer, so he crouched down. He carefully moved forward, and when he suddenly got close, he suddenly pounced forward. However, he felt that something was wrong with this pounce. This did not seem like a deer. How could a deer be so big?!

Subconsciously, he got up and took a few steps back. The dagger in his hand was trembling, but he was still curious about the big guy on the ground. If the thing on the ground could be eaten, then the problem he was facing now... Everything could be solved.

The old man slowly walked forward, looking around and listening to everything around him. The atmosphere became strange and terrifying.

Suddenly, he saw that there seemed to be a hand in the snow. He felt that something was wrong and hurriedly walked forward. Pushing aside the heavy snow, the old man discovered that the person lying in the snow was a handsome young man. He had delicate features, and his thin lips appeared exceptionally well-proportioned on his exquisite facial features.

The old man stretched out two fingers and placed them under Wan Hao's nose. Only after feeling a weak breath did his heart relax. He looked around, and found that there was no one around.

It was winter this year, and the snow had come too suddenly. Many animals were forced to survive the winter without any preparation, and they were already starving. If he was left here, if the hungry wolves saw him... He would definitely be taken away.

Thinking of this, the old man's benevolent heart was touched.

"Looks like this brat doesn't look like a bad person. Forget it, I'll save him!"

The old man made up his mind and looked at the Soul Splitting Spear beside Wan Hao. He thought it was a sharp blade and picked up the deer on the ground. He stabbed the dagger into his boot with his other hand and picked up the unconscious and heavily injured Wan Hao with one hand. Then, he left Emerald Valley.

When Wan Hao woke up again, it was already noon of that day. He opened his eyes hazily. This time, the Secret Art Divine Soul attack had made him suffer a huge loss. The moment he woke up, he felt that... The Yuan Qi in his Dantian could not be moved. It could be said that... The amount of Yuan Qi he could use right now was extremely small!

"Where am I!?"

When Wan Hao woke up, he realized that he was not in the snow, but in a small house. Although the house was simple and crude, it was still considered neat and tidy.

"Child, you are awake!"

At this time, the old man carried a bowl of steaming hot soup, lifted the curtain, and walked in. Coincidentally, he saw Wan Hao wake up from the bed and sit up.

"Old man, where is this place?"

Wan Hao saw that the person who came was an old man with white hair. Time had left traces on his face. The corners of his eyes were full of wrinkles. He looked like he had experienced many vicissitudes of life. There were many patches on his clothes. It seemed like his life was not very good.

"Child, in this snowy weather, why did you faint there? If I didn't happen to pass by by by in the wilderness, you would have frozen to death in this mountain! Come, don't talk for now. Drink this soup while it's hot and warm your body!"

Wan Hao looked at the steaming soup in the old man's hand and was first stunned. However, from the old man's kind eyes, he knew that the old man didn't have any killing intent towards him. If he wanted to kill him, he could do it when he was unconscious. There was no need for him to wait until the poison was poisoned. Feeling warm in his heart, he took a corner of the empty bowl with both hands. He drank it.

If it was a big consumption, Wan Hao would have already used up all the energy in his body. At this moment, when the deer soup entered his mouth, the hot soup flowed down his throat and into his stomach. A warm current flowed through his body, comfortable and comfortable.

Maybe it was because he hadn't eaten anything for a long time. The soup in Wan Hao's hand was soon finished. He felt that this bowl of deer soup was the best food he had ever eaten!

"Haha, don't worry, don't worry. There's more if it's not enough!"

The old man looked at Wan Hao drinking the soup. A figure appeared in his mind, and love appeared in his eyes.

"Grandpa, it's such a cold day, why aren't you closing the shop?"

At this moment, a young girl of about 11 or 12 years old walked out of the room. Her clothes were also covered with patches, and she wore very simple and plain clothes. She had a ponytail and looked very cute. Perhaps because of the cold weather, her red face was frozen like a red apple.

"It will be closed in a while. Go and tidy up the bowls and chopsticks. Grandpa has prepared delicious food for you today. We are preparing to eat!"

The old man looked at the little girl behind him, his eyes full of love and love.

"Hehe, I knew Grandpa would gain something today. I could smell the fragrance of meat from far away!"

The little girl's big eyes were bright, and the little canine teeth that popped out made her even cuter and more exquisite. As she spoke, she jumped and ran towards the kitchen.

"Child, I'm sorry to make you laugh, this is my granddaughter. Come, let's go eat"

It was hard to refuse such kindness. Wan Hao was supported by the old man as he got off the bed. He passed through the curtain and walked into the hall.

While they were chatting, Wan Hao found out that the old man opened a small pub. However, it seemed like this pub only had a few jars of aged wine. He was afraid that there was really nothing else he could take out. No wonder the clothes of the old man and the child were patched. Although it was not enough to make ends meet, the wine that was sold definitely could not be sold without conscience!

The three of them surrounded an eight-immortal table. Next to them was a lit stove to warm the fire. The old man gave the two best legs of the deer in the soup to Wan Hao and the girl respectively, while he picked up a steamed bun and ate it along with some soup.

Wan Hao looked at it and could not bear to eat. He gave a leg of the deer to the old man and said with a smile, "Grandpa, you should eat this. It must be very hard for you to carry me back."

The old man looked at Wan Hao with a trace of surprise on his face. But then it disappeared. He looked at Wan Hao and said, "Today, I was just passing by. Grandpa is old. And you are still a child, and you are still growing. You have to eat more!" The old man gave the deer leg back to Wan Hao.

Wan Hao wanted to refuse again, but his disappointing stomach rang with appropriate benefits. The old man looked at Wan Hao and smiled. This time, even if Wan Hao did not want to eat, he had to!

Just like that, a warm meal was carried out in a harmonious atmosphere. This was the first time Wan Hao felt this kind of feeling after leaving home, so he was inexplicably touched.
