On the other side, Xiaobao pulled Zhou Bin and ran wildly. They soon ran out of the city and came to a remote courtyard outside the city.
Zhou Bin was a little surprised. This looked like an abandoned yard. Why did he pull himself here?
When Zhou Bin arrived and took a closer look, he couldn't help but sigh in his heart. It turned out that Xiaobao lived in such a house.
I saw that the wall of the yard was already in a dilapidated state and the house was overgrown with weeds, making it look very desolate.
When they reached the door, Xiao Bao carefully pushed it open and said with a smile, "I looked and no one is chasing us. Let's go in!"
Zhou Bin asked with a puzzled look on his face: "Why did you bring me here? This place is deserted."
Xiao Bao laughed and said, "Brother, there is no wasteland here, so I will live here."
Zhou Bin’s guess was confirmed at once; it turned out that his little brother really lived here!
Zhou Bin felt a little upset. What on earth had he been through in the past thousand years to have ended up like this?
Zhou Bin said nothing and followed Xiaobao into his yard.
After entering, Zhou Bin felt even worse. He saw that the weeds in the yard were more than a meter tall, and the dilapidated house had collapsed and had no windows.
Zhou Bin couldn't imagine what poor Xiaobao felt like living here alone.
Zhou Bin was extremely happy to see him now, knowing what kind of hardships he had gone through in the past thousand years.
Just as Zhou Bin was thinking to himself, five or six children suddenly ran out from the dark corner of the house. They were all in tattered clothes and looked pale and thin.
One little girl in particular was very cute, but unfortunately her face was sallow and she looked very thin.
When they saw Xiaobao coming back, they immediately surrounded him and started talking at once.
"Brother Xiaobao, is there anything to eat? I'm starving!"
"Yeah, Brother Xiaobao, what good stuff did you find for us?"
"Brother Xiaobao, I'm so hungry, give me something to eat!"
The children were talking at once, but the little girl was the only one standing timidly at the back, not daring to come over because she noticed there was a stranger.
At this time, the children were so busy eating that they didn't notice that there were other people behind them.
Xiaobao's face was full of apology. He didn't find anything to eat this time when he went out, and he almost lost his life. He was so unlucky.
Zhou Bin was surprised to see so many children and immediately asked, "Xiaobao, who are these children?"
As soon as Zhou Bin spoke, the children noticed him and were so scared that they all hid behind Xiaobao. The little girl almost cried. They seemed to be very afraid of strangers.
When Xiaobao saw this, the children were almost crying with fear, and he quickly comforted everyone: "Don't be afraid, this is... a good person."
Zhou Bin thought about it and realized that he had not told Xiaobao his name yet, which was really negligent.
Xiaobao doesn’t know me now, and the fact that he brought me here shows that he trusts me.
So Zhou Bin hurriedly said with a smile, "Children, don't be afraid, I'm not a bad person, my last name is Zhou, you can just call me Brother Zhou."
When the children saw that Zhou Bin had no ill intentions, they were not as scared as before.
But they were still very hungry and looked very uncomfortable.
Xiao Bao had no choice but to comfort them: "Just bear with me. I didn't find anything to eat this time. I'll go out and look for it later."
When everyone heard his words, they all became dejected and sat down on the ground, especially the little girl, who started wiping her tears.
Zhou Bin was a little curious, so he pulled Xiaobao aside and asked, "Xiaobao, where do these children come from?"
Seeing that Zhou Bin was very curious, Xiaobao told Zhou Bin: "They are orphans like me. All the adults in their family are dead. They have no choice but to follow me and go hungry. If I don't take care of them, they will starve to death."
As Xiaobao said this, a helpless look appeared on his face, and Zhou Bin finally understood. It turned out that these children were orphans, and Xiaobao actually took in so many orphans!
Zhou Bin was deeply shocked. Xiaobao was such a kind-hearted child. He couldn't even get enough food to eat, but he still took in so many orphans. It was really unexpected.
Seeing the children's distressed faces, Zhou Bin hurriedly said, "Xiaobao, just wait here. I'll go buy you some food and come back soon."
Zhou Bin was about to go out when Xiao Bao stopped him. "Where are you going, Brother Zhou? You must not go out! You killed Master Liu, the Wu family won't let you go. You should hide here with us for a while. When this is over, we can go out at night."
Zhou Bin saw that Xiao Bao was nervous and said with a smile, "It doesn't matter. Those people can't beat me. You saw that I kicked that guy away with one kick. I'm very capable and I'm not afraid of them."
Xiaobao blinked his eyes as if recalling what had just happened. After Zhou Bin said this, Xiaobao really felt that Zhou Bin was very amazing.
Seeing that Xiaobao was not trying to stop him from going out as strongly as before, Zhou Bin smiled and said, "You guys stay hidden and don't go out. I'll buy you something delicious."
As he spoke, Zhou Bin took big strides and quickly disappeared outside the yard.
After Zhou Bin left, Xiaobao stood there for a long time. He felt an indescribable warmth in his heart, but also a little worried. He hoped that this good brother would be fine.
At this time, the children were still crying, and Xiaobao hurried back to comfort them.
After a long while, the door of the yard opened and Zhou Bin came back as expected.
