Chapter 160 Memories Kill (10/10)

The large low-rise building complex has a different name, called slums.

As the old man came to his slum home, it was a deformed hut made up of wooden boards. Not only did the air leak everywhere, but even the door panels on the block were pitifully simple.

He instructed Ye Zi to carry Ye Rui in and put it on the bed. The old man asked Ye Zi to get some water and twist a towel to cover Ye Rui's forehead.

Judging from the eyes alone, I don’t know how many degrees Ye Rui has burned, but her whole face is flushed and her breathing is slightly rapid. When she touches her hands, it becomes hot.

I frowned slightly, asked Ye Zi to take care of Ye Rui, and then walked outside the house and started boiling medicine.

It’s also a good thing that he has some knowledge of pharmacology. Because he is single, he always prepares medicinal materials at home when winter comes. After all, if he accidentally gets infected with the cold, he will only die in this selfish slum.

Ye Zi was also lucky. When he met the old man, he said that decisively and unhesitantly, so the old man would bring him back. Otherwise, Ye Rui would have a high fever in this environment and would have to wait for death.

Since then, there have been two more children in the slums.

Ye Zi did not tell the old man that he had a home in the bustling city facing the south, nor did he tell the old man that he escaped from the orphanage and killed a person there.

Afterwards, Ye Zi fulfilled his promise, took the old man's sled, went out to find food every day with his weak body, and ate everywhere in the snow. He brought everything he seemed to be edible, and then pulled it back, so that the old man could jump out of what he could eat.

Ten days later, the old man carefully sealed the wooden board firmly, then locked it, and then took Ye Zi, who was dirty all over to a place.

Along the way, many people were at the same direction.

After walking out of the building complex, I came to an open space with a stench, which turned out to be a garbage dump.

Many people walked out of the slums one after another, scattered around the garbage dump. Everyone looked towards the south, where there was the outline of a bustling city.

"What are we doing here?" Ye Zi asked in a low voice.

"Wait for the trash." The old man replied.

"What? Waiting for garbage?" Ye Zi raised his eyebrows.

"Once a month, the city will dump garbage here. If you are lucky, you can find food and useful things from the garbage dump." The old man also looked south and explained casually.

Ye Zi was shocked. This was his first time to know a slum.

Not long after, many trucks carrying garbage slowly drove up from the road, one after another, and after all the cars left, people around rushed towards the piles of garbage.

The old man pulled Ye Zi, who was stunned, and rushed into the garbage dump.

The old man picked up three plush jackets with a small damage rate, a pack of sausages that were expired for two days, and was bitten with a bite of bread wrapped in a packaging bag and a flattened cigarette. As for Ye Zi, he was empty-handed.

Amid the old man's disdainful eyes, the two returned to the broken wooden house.

Seeing the two of them come back, Ye Rui showed a happy smile, then pulled her face and said, "Brother, I'm hungry."

Ye Zi was stunned for a moment, and the old man handed the sausage to Ye Rui directly and said, "Eat it."

"Thank you grandpa." Ye Rui took the sausage and a smile appeared on her face when she was pulling her.

When the old man heard the claim, a warm feeling flashed through his eyes, and he looked at Ye Rui, who was eating sausages one by one.

Seeing this scene, Ye Zi, who came back from the garbage dump empty-handedly, suddenly had the urge to rush back to the garbage dump...

Since then, Ye Zi and Ye Rui have begun to live in the slums.

Perhaps the orphanage had concerns, so even if one person died, no news was triggered.

Time passes by quickly, and in a blink of an eye, five years pass by.

The old man is getting older and his body is getting worse and worse. He cannot move for too long every day, so Ye Zi is the only one who goes to find food and takes care of the whole family's livelihood.

Over the past five years, more and more garbage has been transported from cities, from the frequency of once a month to once every two days.

In the past, once a month, it always brought good goods to slums, but as the garbage increased infinitely, this became a problem.

The more garbage piled up, it began to oppress the living environment of the slums. So the slums began to resist. Once, when the garbage truck came in, the slums were blocked and refused to let in. In the end, the driver carrying the garbage had to return in disappointment.

That night, a fire came without warning.

When the fire was discovered, it was so fierce that it could not be blocked by human power. The entire night sky was illuminated by the fire. From a distance, the low building complex was submerged in the fire, like a fire dragon lying across the earth.

The fire came unexpectedly. When he was shocked, a raging flame had already ignited around the room where Ye Zi was.

The old man knew that he was unable to move. If Ye Zi was asked to take him with him, the three people might be surrounded by fire and eventually died in the fire.

So when Ye Zi held Ye Rui with one hand and wanted to hold him with the other, he slapped him with the other.

"Let's go."

In just two words, the attitude and tone are very firm.

Ye Zi said without hesitation: "Let's go together."

The old man looked at him disdainfully and said, "You are not stupid either. You know why I want to stay."

Ye Zi couldn't help but remain silent when she heard this and repeated: "Let's go together."

"Stupid little guy, being alive is more important than anything else. Do you want Xiaorui to suffer misfortune?" The old man sighed softly.

"Grandpa, if you don't leave, then I won't leave!" Ye Rui seemed to see something, and looked at the old man anxiously with a little face.

"Haha." The old man smiled happily when he heard this and said seriously: "Don't say stupid things." Then, he looked at Ye Zi viciously, expressing his meaning clearly.

"Goodbye." Ye Zi knew that he could not drag it down any longer. He bit his lower lip, pulled Ye Rui's arm decisively, threw away a hasty farewell, and turned around without hesitation.

Seeing that the old man was about to stay in the room alone, Ye Rui immediately began to struggle and shouted loudly: "How can you do this? Grandpa will be burned to death."

Ye Zi said nothing, and Ye Rui dragged her out of the building complex surrounded by flames while resisting.

That night, many people looked at the house swallowed by the flames and knelt speechlessly, some cried loudly, and some cursed.

Ye Rui cried so hard, while Ye Zi just watched the fire quietly without saying a word.

This is an artificial arson that does not require any consideration.

He had seen this cruelty when he was six years old.

So, this is what he is experiencing, that is, this world...

All the pictures were suddenly twisted and sucked in by a black hole.

Under the dark ground, the Spot standing beside the bed, and the face of Gu Jing Wubo appeared with a look of shock, but it was rare to lose his composure.

Bai Jue looked at Ban, and was surprised, but he didn't know what Ban saw.

"Ha, haha..." A low laugh suddenly sounded under the quiet ground.

"This is really... amazing, it makes me feel uncomfortable."

Ban looked at Ye Zi on the bed, and his eyes were filled with an inexplicable strange light.
