I traveled through time and space and found a mute boy: That’s enough, I feel sorry for him

That night, Xu Shu climbed over the wall and went to Chen Hu's house while the child was asleep. In order to prepare for a rainy day, Xu Shu had already asked the village chief about Chen Hu.

As for his background, he really had none. He was just a bachelor who had neither parents nor a wife. He was a bit sturdy and strong. In addition, Chen Hu usually did some sneaky things. Respectable people were afraid of being entangled by him, so they usually stayed away from him and didn't care about that little thing. This made him a lot bolder.

Chen Hu's house is easy to recognize. It's just a shabby thatched hut, not much different from where Xu Shu lives now. However, this man is not as particular as Xu Shu. There is a mixture of urine and alcohol in the house, which can be smelled through the window.

There was no light in the room, but he could hear some noises, so he thought there was someone there. Xu Shu poked a hole in the window paper and took a look inside. He had excellent night vision and could see the situation in the room clearly by the moonlight, but this one look made him feel sick.

Chen Hu was pressing on a skinny boy, and his flesh was shaking with his movements, which looked very eye-catching. The boy under him had no expression, just staring blankly at the ceiling. His body was covered with bite wounds and blood was flowing from his body, but he didn't seem to feel any pain at all, and didn't even scream.

Chen Hu seemed to think that this guy was too dull, so he raised his hand and slapped him. The guy's face suddenly swelled up. "Yell twice for me, and I'll give you something to eat."

When he heard the word "eat", the boy's eyes gradually focused. He opened his mouth and made two symbolic "ah" sounds without any emotion.

Chen Hu was obviously not satisfied, and slapped him again: "Scream louder, damn it."

Xu Shu was disgusted. He planned to beat this man so hard that he couldn't get out of bed tonight anyway. He didn't want to wait any longer. He pushed the window and climbed in. He quickly got in front of Chen Hu and knocked him out with a knife.

The whole process happened so quickly that Chen Hu was unable to react and couldn't even scream.

But the boy under him saw Xu Shu and screamed in fear. Xu Shu kicked Chen Hu, who was still on top of him, away and whispered, "I won't touch you, don't scream."

The boy nodded when he heard that, and immediately pulled up the quilt beside him and wrapped himself up.

Xu Shu didn't look at him. He tied up Chen Hu first, then found two stools to hold Chen Hu's thighs, and when he was sure they were secure, he kicked him hard at the knee. He was very skilled at this, and with just one kick, the bones of the leg were obviously dislocated. It would take a hundred days to heal the broken bones, and Chen Hu would not be able to make trouble for a while.

Actually, Xu Shu didn't intend to be so cruel, but the scene he just saw was really hard to describe, so Xu Shu no longer showed mercy.

Chen Hu was awakened by the pain and suddenly opened his eyes. When he saw Xu Shu, his first reaction was confusion. Then he started to curse: "Xu Shu, it's you again. I haven't come to settle the score with you yet, but you come to my door first."

Hearing that he was really going to cause trouble, Xu Shu kicked his other leg again, but this time he was awake and his aim was not good, so he failed to cripple him, but the pain was enough to make Chen Hu scream. Xu Shu was looking for something to stuff his mouth with, but the boy next to him reacted quickly and stuffed Chen Hu's mouth with his clothes.

Chen Hu looked at the guy in shock, then at Xu Shu, obviously misunderstanding that there was something fishy going on between the two of them.

The guy didn't intend to explain. He grabbed Chen Hu's other leg that was still kicking, and imitated Xu Shu's method just now, clamping Chen Hu's thigh. Then he looked up at Xu Shu.

Xu Shu actually didn't intend to completely cripple Chen Hu, but since he was invited, he hesitated for a moment, and finally kicked him, breaking his leg. Even though Chen Hu's mouth was blocked, his screams were miserable enough.

Xu Shu adapted well, but he didn't expect that the boy was also very calm. He even picked up the clothes beside him and started putting them on.

Xu Shu was too embarrassed to look, so he hurried to the window, intending to return the same way, but he heard the boy say behind him: "I will remember your great kindness today, and I will repay you in the future."

Xu Shu waved his hand indifferently, feeling pretty good. However, when he walked out of the courtyard, he heard Chen Hu's scream again, and then the guy asked in a low voice: "Are you still happy with this?"

Xu Shu immediately guessed what the guy had done. As a man himself, he couldn't help but feel a chill in his crotch. He quickened his pace and hurried back home.

When he tiptoed back home, he pushed the door open and saw little Mujin groping towards the door in the dark. The child seemed to have night blindness, and his feet were swollen, so he walked very slowly, but still bumped into the table and knocked over the stool.

Xu Shu pushed the door open to let the moonlight from outside in, which did provide some relief. However, Mu Jinghua still couldn't see the person standing at the door clearly. He stopped for a moment and stared at the person at the door.

Xu Shu felt guilty when he looked at her like that. He couldn't help but cough lightly, then he went forward and picked up the child and put him on the bed. He apologized first, "I'm sorry, you didn't fall, did you?"

As soon as Mu Jinghua smelled the faint scent of bamboo leaves, he knew it was Xu Shu, so he did not resist and let Xu Shu carry him to the bed. When he heard Xu Shu ask him if he was okay, he shook his head to indicate no, and then gestured, "Where are you going?"

Xu Shu lied and said that he went to the toilet, and asked the child why he was not asleep yet.

Mu Jinghua was silent for a moment, but finally told the truth: "I want to go to the toilet, too."

Xu Shu was embarrassed for a moment. It turned out that the child wanted to go to the toilet. He just carried the child back to the bed. All those steps he took were in vain. He touched the tip of his nose and said, "Your feet are inconvenient, so I carried you there. It's still dark at night. Wait for me to light a candle."

Mu Jinghua blushed, but thinking of his feet, he didn't refuse.

Xu Shu carried him to the toilet. Although he didn't look at him, he didn't let him close the door. One reason was that he was afraid that something might happen to him and Xu Shu would not be able to rescue him in time. The other reason was that leaving the door open made it easier for Xu Shu to hold a candle for him.

Mu Jinghua has always been very well behaved. Even though he was very embarrassed, he still nodded and agreed.

Moreover, after spending these days together, Mu Jinghua had already confirmed that Xu Shu had no such intention towards him. Like Shen Lin'er, he was just a younger brother or sister who needed to be pampered in Xu Shu's eyes.

But he is different from Shen Lin'er. He will not be so wishful and hope that Xu Shu will like him.
