C1856 Little Boy
Xuan Tian let out a restless roar.
"Little guy, don't be afraid!" Zhou Yi patted Xuan Tian's head and walked inside.
The entire floor, walls, and ceiling of the basement were covered in blood.
This was where the stench of blood came from.
Zhou Yi touched a bit and checked it carefully in front of his eyes. He found that the blood was not human at all. It should be the blood of some kind of animal.
There seemed to be a faint fragrance coming from the blood.
It was a bit like a rose, but also a little like a lily. Zhou Yi couldn't really tell what it was, but it was quite fragrant.
Suddenly, Xuan Tian growled at a corner of the basement.
Because Zhou Yi's eyesight was poor, he didn't notice anything in the corner.
He could only raise the firelight in his hand and slowly move towards that direction.
"What is this?"
Zhou Yi saw a person tied up in the corner.
To say that it was a person didn't seem like it.
The group of people was too small, and they looked like three to four year old children.
He curled up into a ball and fell to the ground. His hands and feet were locked by the iron chains sticking out of the wall.
"A child?!" Zhou Yi couldn't understand why the people in the village would lock such a small child in such a weird basement.
He stepped forward and called out to the shadow.
"Break the chain!" Zhou Yi instructed.
The shadow was about to attack, but it suddenly stopped mid-air.
"What's wrong?" Zhou Yi was shocked.
"Why do I feel like he isn't an ordinary child? He has a vicious aura around him, like, like …"
Shadow spoke for a long time, but he still couldn't figure out what it looked like.
"Save him first." Zhou Yi said.
The master had already issued an order, and the shadow did not dare to delay any further, immediately cutting the chain.
The child was still unconscious, so Zhou Yi held the child in his arms.
A three or four-year-old child with a soft body reminded Zhou Yi of the childhood Zhou Qing.
"Ai!" He sighed. He didn't know when he would be able to go back. He also didn't know how things were going up there.
And what was the purpose of the fellow who had tricked him?
If he was no longer here, would he make a move on his family?
Thinking of this, Zhou Yi's mood instantly became irritated.
"Master, are you alright?" The Umbra had a contractual relationship with him, so he could naturally feel Zhou Yi's change in mood.
Zhou Yi shook his head and threw all these random thoughts out of his mind. "Hurry up and go, don't let the people in the village find out."
As they spoke, the two of them had already reached the main entrance.
But who would have thought that just as he stepped out, a figure walked over from afar.
However, when they first saw Zhou Yi, they were stunned for a moment. Then, their gazes landed on the child in Zhou Yi's arms.
"Holy sh * t!" He cursed under his breath, then pointed at Zhou Yi and yelled, "He can't leave that basement. Put him back."
Zhou Yi, of course, did not care what the other party was talking about. He carried the small group of people and quickly ran out of the village.
Seeing that Zhou Yi was about to run away, that person's face revealed a terrified expression. "Take him away, someone come quickly!"
The moment that person shouted, the people from the stronghold instantly ran out of the room.
The speed of the man and the beast was naturally not slow. In the blink of an eye, the two of them brought the child and ran out of the mountain stronghold.
"Let's go."
Zhou Yi shouted to Hua Xin who was waiting outside. Then, he took the lead and ran forward.
Hua Xin could faintly hear the sounds of panic from the stronghold. When he saw the child in Zhou Yi's arms, he knew that the people behind him were definitely chasing after the child.
As he ran, he asked, "Sir, what is going on?"
Zhou Yi replied, "He was saved in the basement, let's go first and leave this place first."
The group rushed on for nearly an hour, but the shouts behind had long since disappeared. Only then did they gradually slow down.
The child was still unconscious in Zhou Yi's arms, showing no signs of waking up.
They found a quiet place and stopped. Zhou Yi personally checked the pulse of this child.
This child's pulse was very strange. Zhou Yi raised his head and looked at Hua Xin with a puzzled expression.
Xin Xin was baffled, "Sir, what's going on?"
0
"A drop of blood between his eyebrows." Zhou Yi handed the child in his arms over to Hua Xin.
"Huh?" "Hua Xin, you're stunned. Zhou Yi's request is really too strange."
However, he saw that Zhou Yi didn't have any intention to joke around, so he could only cut his own finger and dripped his dark red blood on the child's forehead.
At this moment, something strange happened.
The drop of blood slowly seeped into the child's skin. It was unknown whether or not it had entered his mind.
Suddenly, the child opened his eyes.
His eyes were lifeless, and they were filled with traces of scarlet red.
Xi Xin was so shocked that she almost threw the child out of the window.
"Mister, what's going on?" Huaxin held the child in his arms and tried his best to keep him away from his body. He looked at Zhou Yi and asked.
Zhou Yi smiled, "Sure enough, he can be considered as a gift from me."
"W-what?" Hua Xin couldn't understand what kind of gift Zhou Yi would give him if he gave him a child. Could it be that Zhou Yi was going to be his son?
At this moment, the red light in the child's eyes slowly faded. His pair of large eyes had already returned to normal.
He slowly turned his head to look at Hua Xin, who was hugging him, or rather, holding his body, and asked in a childish voice, "Did you wake me up?"
"Eh? "The little guy woke up!"
When the surrounding young men and women heard the voices of the children, they instantly moved over.
Hua Xin lightly nodded his head.
Unexpectedly, after he finished his sentence, he felt his hand lighten as the little thing jumped off his hand and landed firmly on the ground.
He performed a huge bow towards Hua Hui, and then said in a childish voice, "Master, please accept this bow from Hua Hua!"
Hua Xin subconsciously looked at Zhou Yi, but Zhou Yi merely nodded at him.
He quickly reached out his hand to help the child up from the ground. "Little brother, you …"
"Master can just call me Hedgehog. From now on, the Hedgehog belongs to you." The little guy grinned and said.
What does he want a little guy like this for?
Was it used to serve him? Aren't three or four years old a little too young?
Other than crying and playing, children at this age probably wouldn't have anything else.
However, since it was Zhou Yi's tacit approval, Hua Xin had no reason to refuse.
Therefore, he stretched out his hand and gently rubbed Hedong's head, saying, "Hedong, you, you'll be good in the future!"
