Wait I have all that fruit froht her spiritual force into the ring and brought out several fruits She wasn’t stingy so of course she shared sohtly red in e, however he proh his hunger was et hisa feords of thanks The juice gushed into thishim a bit

Aye! So juicy! There was a milky aftertaste that he couldn’t quite identify This rade stuff! Tian Ke didn’t hold back and slurped the juice out of the fruit enthusiastically This must be the stuff the talented people in the city eat Can’t waste any! Thinking up to here Tian Ke didn’t stop until there was only a husk of a fruit left in his hands

Eventually the night passed and a new day dawned At around late afternoon Feng Wu risked cli out of the well to take a look All around her were charred reh it was dyed red Feng Wu stood gazing at the once fa in her heart With little bun in her are could happen in just one night

Shortly after Tian Ke used the pail rope to clier and rew up and it was all he’d ever known Now all of it was gone! Although his six year old heart was in tur only six he knew he needed to cling to soure he had left, he was going to definitely cling on to her!

“Sister Feng, what are you going to do?”

After thinking for a moment she could only shake her head Her house was burned down and she had nowhere to go She didn’t knohere Auntie Lian lived either, so it wasn’t like she could ask her for help Ho withcity She’s kind and nice Not likeaunt made him want to cry He suffered so much injustice froinally persevered because he wanted to wrest back his birthright frorow up to do so his uncle’s fale soul for hioal in life, he didn’t knohat to strive for in the future The only person he could count on was his aunt He firard his uncle’s faood an idea as any other to Feng Wu’s reed, and with little bun in her arms and Tian Ke by her side, the trio decided to leave the desolate village

“Hoe get there?”

“I don’t know either I only know that it’s far away froh they agreed on a destination, neither she nor Tian Ke kne to travel to the city, or even where it was Tian Ke only knew that Zhongyang city was very far away and was a long journey even by carriage As for Feng Wu, she had absolutely no idea Her soul had only stayed in this world for a little over a month and the farthest she ventured was the nearbyWu carefully Since their destination was so uncertain he was afraid that she would abandon hi Wu didn’t have such cohts She only asked, “What should we do?” Although she was clearly the elder in the relationshi+p, she was still asking a child to decide Feng Wu’s thoughts were straightforward indeed If she didn’t know, then she would ask If she didn’t ask, then she’d never understand

Tian Ke was a very bright child and after soo to the nearest city and find a map From there we can set out properly” He also realized that this older sister may not be so reliable after all

The situation was made very clear to Tian Ke as they walked forward on their journey He was a realistic child and quickly adapted after accepting the truth, and the truth was indeed very siry? Well then it was tia Wu’s nearly lethal dark cooking “skills” he decided to take matters into his own hands As a result all these tasks (including diapering duties) fell onto Tian Ke’s shoulders Feng Wu’s only responsibility was to feed little bun, which she did very well!

It took three days of walking before they finally reached a town “Sister Feng howher reply he asked the townspeople directions for the best lodgings available There they paid for a rooetting two barrels of hot water for bathing, Tian Ke took hold of little bun and proceeded to wash the grime from his body Little bun was too small to wash safely in the rivers they passed on their journey They also had a hard ti a private spot to bath properly as there were many other travelers on the road As a result they had accu they ate acleaned and full they decided to take a nap to re-energize

Feng Wu had a change of clothing since she packed everything before leaving that night, however, Tian Ke did not have any luggage Fortunately the lady innkeeper had a son as slightly bigger than Tian Ke She wasTian Ke was really grateful to have clean clothes to wear and so blabbered his thanks with a red blushi+ng face

News of the robbery and e had spread so most people around the area knew of it The lady innkeeper knew the children had to be survivors of the ordeal and so treated the sure that theirWu had a good ie of her and felt that she was very kind person so she took the opportunity to ask how to get to Zhongyang city

This question really surprised the lady innkeeper “It’ll take several years if you go by foot Using a beast carriage would shorten the time, but it will be much more expensive”
