The skinny man frowned and pouted, walking over unwillingly.
At this moment, Qiao Xuan winked at Qiao Xinghu while looking at the skinny man walking over.
Qiao Xinghu knew Qiao Xuan's background. Other than Qiao Xuan himself, there was no treasure. However, when he saw Qiao Xuan stretch out his hand, although he didn't know what he was going to do, he saw Qiao Xuan secretly signal.
Qiao Xinghu slowly looked around. When he realized that no one was paying attention to him, he secretly checked his escape route.
At this moment, the skinny man was about to walk in front of Qiao Xuan. He quickly stopped and covered his nose. He pulled up the corner of his clothes and came to receive the treasure in disgust.
Qiao Xuan suddenly retracted his hand and cursed," Skinny ghost, look at your disgusted expression. You're humiliating the treasure!"”
When the skinny man saw the child scolding him, he was so angry that his eyes turned black. He gently covered his mouth and nose with his hand and cursed back,"You still have the face to scold me, kid? You hid the treasure behind…Which one of us has the treasure?”Then, he spread the corner of his clothes and stretched out his hand, looking as if he was going to go all out.
"Skinny Ghost, look at how respectful your boss is," Qiao Xuan said slyly.”He suddenly threw the stone in his hand at Sun Kuang and shouted,""Boss Sun, quickly take the treasure!"
Sun Kuang was watching the two of them negotiate with evil intentions when he suddenly heard Qiao Xuan mention Qian Biao and then throw the treasure at him. He subconsciously reached out to catch it, but when he suddenly thought of where the treasure was hidden, he felt a lump in his throat. His hand went soft and he couldn't catch it, and it rolled into the dark soil.
Only then did the skinny man react. He rushed towards the treasure and shouted,"Boss Qian, quick, quick! Don't let them snatch it away."
Qian Biao also came back to his senses and quickly raised his torch to snatch it.
Sun Kuang didn't have the time to regret his decision as he pounced toward the treasure.
The two groups of people immediately fought over it, causing chaos.
Qiao Xinghu quickly grabbed Qiao Xuan and shouted as he fled,""This is a priceless pearl. Everyone, hurry up and snatch it!”
The crowd who had been watching the show for half a day, when they heard that it was a priceless pearl, all of them pounced forward crazily, fighting for it with all their might.
Qiao Xinghu pulled Qiao Xuan and desperately ran out of the crowd. Taking advantage of the vast night, they fled towards a deserted path, and after running for an unknown distance, the two of them finally collapsed from exhaustion.
Only when the sun was high in the sky did the two of them slowly wake up. They had really survived a calamity, as if a lifetime had passed.
The two of them no longer dared to take the main road and tried to avoid the crowd. Fortunately, Qiao Xuan was strange and Qiao Xinghu was good at surviving in the wild.
The two of them crawled for nearly ten days without any danger before they arrived near the border in exhaustion.
The two of them carefully returned to the main road and found a passerby to ask. They knew that there was still half a day before they could enter Chongwu's border. If they walked south for another day, they would see the pass.
The two of them were afraid that they would encounter those waves of evil people again, so they carefully turned back to the path.
The two of them moved the weeds and walked slowly while talking in low voices, especially when they talked about how everyone in Chongwu Country could practice martial arts.
Qiao Xuan was suddenly abnormally excited and started chattering non-stop.
Qiao Xinghu saw that Qiao Xuan had finally become happy and did not want to pour cold water on him. However, he could not help but say in a low voice,""Xuan, I know you've always wanted to practice martial arts, but how? Where to learn? Have you thought about it?"
Qiao Xuan was so excited that he didn't notice Qiao Xinghu's serious expression. He casually replied,""Let's not talk about this for now. We'll talk about it after we pass the pass.”
Qiao Xinghu saw that he was so casual and felt that he was a little too optimistic. He stopped in his tracks and looked at him solemnly.
Seeing Brother Xinghu's serious expression, Qiao Xuan hurriedly smiled and said,""Brother Xinghu, did I say something wrong? I'll apologize to you!" Then, he cupped his hands and bowed repeatedly.
Qiao Xinghu quickly supported Qiao Xuan and said solemnly,""Now that you and I have lost both our parents, we can only rely on ourselves. Don't have any more fantasies. No one will prepare anything for you anymore.”
Qiao Xuan immediately turned gloomy, but he only nodded in response to Qiao Xinghu's words.
"Hey!" Qiao Xinghu sighed. Seeing that Qiao Xuan seemed to understand a little, he said,""No matter what you do in the future, you will have to pay the price. If you want to practice martial arts, what price can you pay? "Also, although you and I support each other, there will always be a day when we separate. After these days of danger, you should grow up…"
"No, I want to be with you forever!”Qiao Xuan interrupted excitedly.
Qiao Xinghu patted Qiao Xuan and said very emotionally,""I don't want to leave you either, but is it up to you and me in the future? Sigh! Fate is always unpredictable."
When Qiao Xuan heard him say that, he seemed to have sensed something and asked a little uncomfortably,""Then how can I be considered to have grown up?"
"When you learn to be silent, you will grow up.”Qiao Xinghu said dejectedly.
At this moment, Qiao Xuan thought of his parents and asked in pain,""Why do people have to grow up?"
Qiao Xinghu's expression was determined. He stared at Qiao Xuan with his eyebrows raised and gritted his teeth."To welcome the suffering!"
Qiao Xuan raised his head stubbornly and said firmly,""Let's go, Brother Xinghu. Let's go and welcome the suffering!”His head suddenly rang with a ringing sound, but he couldn't stop his foot.
Qiao Xuan only felt the ground beneath his feet suddenly empty. It was too late for him to escape, and his body fell rapidly.
Qiao Xinghu hurriedly went to grab Qiao Xuan, but the grass was wet and slippery, and he was also dragged into the trap. With two thuds, the two of them fell into the pit and fainted.
At this moment, a man in his forties crawled out from behind the grassy slope on the left. He was not very tall, but his body was fat. His mouth was wide open, and a black rope was wrapped around his waist. He dragged a ladder and swayed to the side of the pit.
The fat man stood on his tiptoes as he stuck his head out and looked into the pit. He scolded,"These two little brats really know how to drag things out. It's as if they're in love. If they were a couple, they would have rolled together long ago. They made me lie on the wet grass for a long time, but they still fell into my lap. Why am I so slow?"
The fat man quickly stopped talking and put the ladder into the pit. He then went down into the pit and fished out Qiao Xuan and the other man in turn. After he tied their hands and feet together, he pulled out the ladder and covered the pit again. Then, he hid the ladder.
Then, he found a wooden stick and inserted it between the two people's hands and feet. He carried the two people on each end and walked home.
The road was bumpy and bumpy. Qiao Xinghu's messy hair fluttered in the wind. He was quickly woken up by the shaking. He looked up and understood the current situation.
Thinking that something terrible might happen, Qiao Xinghu shouted anxiously,"Xuan 'zi, Xuan' zi, wake up!"
Qiao Xuan had fallen heavily and was still unconscious. He did not react at all.
This made the fat man very worried. He shouted,"This child is too weak! He couldn't help but fall, but he had to not die. It would affect…”
Then, he patted Qiao Xinghu's butt and felt that it was strong and firm. He said,"Not bad, not bad! You're really strong!"
As the fat man spoke, he quickened his pace. Qiao Xinghu swayed even more violently. The thing he was worried about still happened, and he could not break free from the pork trotter's shackles.
Qiao Xinghu's heart sank to the bottom of a dark valley."Forget it, forget it! I won't shout anymore. It's better for Xuanzi to die like this than to wake up and go crazy.”
Qiao Xinghu steeled his heart and bit the fat man.
As if he had discovered Qiao Xinghu's intentions, the fat man moved his buttocks exaggeratedly as he walked, laughing and teasing.
Qiao Xinghu repeatedly failed to bite and helplessly gave up on biting as if he had accepted his fate.
The fat man carried the two of them through a dense forest and turned around a hill. They saw a stream not far away.
There was a cave on the right side of the stream. In front of the cave, there was a large pot. The soup had been boiling for a long time and was almost boiling to the bottom.
Fortunately, the firewood was about to run out, so he did not have to worry about burning the pot.
The fat man saw that the firewood was about to die out and quickly threw the two of them down.
Qiao Xinghu and the other man immediately fell to the ground, but it also woke Qiao Xuan up. Seeing that he was tied up like this, Qiao Xuan was so frightened that he struggled with his limbs and twisted his neck to look for Qiao Xinghu.
The fat man had already scurried to the side of the pot, adding firewood and water while complaining loudly. Then, he shouted,"Tall guy, where the hell are you? The pot is almost dry. What are you doing?”
"I'm lying here…! How long have I been waiting for you? If I didn't lie down, I would have starved to death!" The tall and thin man stood up from the stone roof beside the cave and cursed weakly.
Suddenly, he saw the two people who had fallen down. He quickly slid down from the top of the stone and walked between Qiao Xuan and Qiao Xinghu.
He touched this one moment and pinched that one moment. Drool flowed from the corner of his mouth as he smacked his tongue and said flatteringly,"Old Fatty Xiao, you are my brother, and you have two two-legged sheep.”Then, he turned it over and over again, touching it non-stop.
Qiao Xuan had already seen Brother Xinghu tied up. His face was filled with despair and he ignored his cries.
At this moment, Qiao Xuan heard the words " two-legged goat " and shouted in fear,""We're humans, not sheep. Please, uncle, let us go!”He kept pleading.
"Tall pole, don't be idle! Quickly pick one, peel it clean, and cook it!”The short Fatty Xiao shouted happily as he reorganized the pot of soup.
At this moment, seeing Qiao Xuan screaming desperately, Fatty Xiao swaggered over and stepped on Qiao Xuan.
Then he smiled and said,"Child, stop shouting!" "No one comes to the deep mountains and forests. Besides, look, we've been starving for a few days. Just treat it as a good thing. Since you're so lively, it's you.”
Then, he wiped his mouth and pulled Qiao Xuan up.
Qiao Xinghu struggled and shouted," Let him go. I'm big. I can hold you guys off for five to six days."”
"Hehe…" The tall man beside him sneered disdainfully. This kid was really boasting shamelessly. What five or six days? It was already very good to be able to feed him for three days.
Too lazy to argue with this kid, he said,"The weather is getting hotter and hotter. If you leave it for a long time, it will stink and sour. We'll raise you for two days. I'm really too hungry. I'll use this little baby to feed myself first. Later, I'll have a bite for you too.”
He took the rope from Fatty Xiao and excitedly dragged Qiao Xuan to the stream.
Seeing that he was going to die like this, Qiao Xuan ignored the buzzing sound in his head and stopped begging for mercy.
Instead, he thought,"Father, Mother, we will be able to reunite very soon."”A bitter smile appeared on her small face. She called out to Brother Xinghu and closed her eyes to await death.
However, he didn't know that there was a strange fluctuation that spread out from here, causing all the beasts within 50 miles to howl.
Qiao Xinghu saw that he was unable to save Qiao Xuan, and the pain in his heart was like a knife cutting through him. He rolled on the ground in hatred.
Suddenly, he heard the chaotic roars of beasts and the chirping of birds. He thought of Qiao Xuan's strangeness and thought to himself," There's hope."
From afar, he saw the flying birds in the sky and the ferocious beasts that were about to come out of the forest.
At this moment, the tall man hurriedly abandoned Qiao Xuan and leaned against Fatty Xiao. Seeing that these ferocious beasts and birds were about to pounce over.
Just as the two of them were about to run into the cave, they suddenly saw these beasts let out shrill screams and turned around to run back.
Realizing that it was a false alarm, the two of them burst into laughter.
Seeing that these beasts had run away again, the fire of hope in Qiao Xuan's heart was instantly extinguished.
Qiao Xinghu slammed his head on the ground and cursed these two beasts loudly.
The two of them ignored him and walked toward Qiao Xuan with sinister smiles.
