My boyfriend is not a human being? It’s over. I love him even more!

Chapter 57: My Boyfriend’s Waist, the Soul-Catching Knife (25)

The man and the woman thanked each other together and walked away, blaming each other for making a wrong decision, but they held each other's hands tightly and never let go.

Maybe soon, there will be another newlywed couple here.

Chu Xiang gritted his teeth and continued forward.

A strong snowstorm blew by, and when it fell on her it was like light clouds. The snow on the ground could easily cause someone to step on empty air, but she walked on it as if it were flat ground.

The wind and snow here won't hurt her.

Chu Xiang walked quickly and gradually felt her body getting warm. She took off her scarf and hat, and her body became lighter and lighter. It didn't take her much time to reach the top of the mountain unimpeded.

Wei Qi had taken Chu Xiang to many places, but he had never taken her to the top of a mountain. This was her first time on the top of a mountain. Standing here and looking down, the white town seemed so small.

"Xiangxiang, I'm back after doing a good deed!" Wei Qi pushed open the door of the repair shop. There was only a little snowman with a bow on its head placed on the counter, as if it was guarding the shop here instead of its parents.

Wei Qi didn't see Chu Xiang. He moved his nose slightly and sniffed the air. Suddenly, he raised his head and looked towards the top of the mountain.

His expression changed and he ran straight towards the top of the mountain.

The people around him quickly dispersed and made way for him.

The owner of the ice sculpture hall said: "Is he crazy?"

The innkeeper took a puff of his cigarette and said, "Isn't that just crazy?"

Wei Qi hadn't experienced running for a long time. In the wind and snow, every step he took forward was so hurried and anxious. The footprints left on the snow were soon buried by new snow.

It's ok.

it's OK.

The seven-year-old boy was holding the basket full of things with difficulty. Even though his face was red from the cold, his hands were chapped from frostbite in the cold wind, and the pair of cloth shoes on his feet could not keep him warm in the snow, he was happy.

He was not worried that he would not be able to find his way back after his footprints were swallowed by the wind and snow on the way up the mountain, nor was he worried that he might be attacked by hungry wild beasts. He was not worried that he might not be able to get up after a simple fall, because he had received a candy not long ago, and he would get more candies in the future.

A group of people were trapped in the cave. The only source of light came from a small hole, but the hole was too small. Unless they were children, it was impossible for adults to climb out through it.

The boy was looking for something to eat on the mountain when he heard some noise coming from inside. Out of curiosity he climbed down and looked into the cave, where he discovered that there were quite a few people.

He said in a panic that he would find someone to rescue them, but the leading man in the cave gave him a candy and told him gently, "Little friend, the uncles are doing something very important. Don't tell others and let them disturb us."

The boy was confused, but the taste of the candy made him feel both novel and excited.

The man said, "Uncle, we have a lot of candies here. If you come to bring us food every day, I will give you a candy every day, okay?"

The boy answered loudly: "Okay!"

He was skinny, and the clothes he wore to protect himself from the wind and snow were made from old clothes picked up from other people. The child, who had never tasted candy, could not resist the sweet temptation and agreed to the request.

Every day he would take out his stored food and send it up the mountain to the people in the cave. To the adults in the cave, his food was just some leftovers, but it was the best he could offer.

The severe cold and poverty made the people here go hungry. The adults could not survive, and it was common for them to abandon weak children. This boy was one of the abandoned wild children.

He didn't know who his parents were, but he was lucky enough to have survived the harsh environment. He hid alone in an abandoned wooden house in the mountains, living every day like a reptile in a garbage dump.

Due to malnutrition, his hair turned yellow, he was short, his limbs were thin, and he was skin and bones. Only his stomach was slightly protruding due to indigestion. This dirty and funny-looking boy was despised by the locals.

But the people in the cave had to suppress their nausea and eat the food he brought in order to avoid starving to death. Today, he got another candy.

He squatted outside the cave, wanting to stuff the candy into his mouth as usual, but before putting the candy into his mouth, he held back and asked the person in the cave, "Uncle, can I not have the candy and make another request?"

The man inside asked, "What do you want?"

"When you're done with your work, can you take me to see the outside world?" The boy looked forward to it, with a spark of light in his sunken eyes. "I heard that there are places full of flowers, places with huge grasslands, and places with lots of books!"

"Uncle, can I go to the outside world?"

"Just one look, just one look is enough!"

The man in the cave said: "Okay, but we haven't finished our work yet. When we are done, I will take you to the outside world."

The boy jumped up excitedly, "Uncle, thank you!"

Therefore, he became more frugal with his food, leaving more food for the people in the cave. Although he was getting thinner and thinner, he was happy because he lived in anticipation every day that one day he would walk out of this white world.

The noise in the cave became louder and louder.

"I really can't stay here any longer, why don't we ask him to call someone to rescue us!"

"Are you crazy? If he calls people over, then won't the treasure we found be divided among others?"

"Wait a little longer. I've left a mark. The brothers outside will definitely find this place soon, and then they will rescue us."

"How can we wait any longer? Haven't you noticed that the food that dirty boy is sending us is tree bark boiled in water? If we continue like this, we will surely starve to death!"

"Oh my God! Lao Shi, why did you kill Lao Ling!"

"He kept saying discouraging things, which could easily affect everyone's morale. I heard the signal gun sound, and my brother was already nearby."

"But...but we are really too hungry to bear it..."

"Don't worry, we won't starve to death, and this matter cannot be made known to more people."

On this day, the boy brought up all the pine nuts he had found in the squirrel's nest after digging for a long time, mixed with the wild vegetable roots he had found. He stood at the entrance of the cave and handed over the basket of bowls, chopsticks and food with his cracked hands.

The man in the cave took the basket and said with a smile: "Don't you want to go to the outside world? Come in, uncle will tell you what the outside world is like."

The boy's black eyes shone brightly, "The world outside!"

"Yes, the world outside." The man in the cave said: "It's a world with flowers, grasslands, and books. Do you want to hear it?"

"I think!"

The boy squatted down with great longing, and like a puppy, he used his hands and feet and climbed to the entrance of the cave impatiently.

The cave was dark and he was a little scared.

The next second he told himself that it was okay.

Because soon, he will know what the outside world looks like.
