Chapter 6 Sleita

Everyone lives in different environments. Different environments create people of all kinds. Xu Mu doesn't know how to lose everything and is extremely sad. Ai Lu doesn't know how to bow his head and do evil only for survival.

The two people have different values ​​after all. One has spiritual pursuits, and the other has only survival and self in their hearts.

In Xu Mu's words, the biggest truth he learned when he came to this world was that he would only make the most suitable choices, say the most suitable words, and do the most suitable things for any choice.

It was still late at night after coming to Gote Town. Ai Lu had lacked physical strength before using magic and had a little bad mental state. After arriving at Gote Town, she was a little dazed. If Xu Mu hadn't been traction by the side, she would have found a place to make a fire in the forest on the side of the road to rest.

Xu Mu came to Gote Town several times and came to a hotel very familiarly.

The hotel clerk was dozing off when he saw someone coming in and quickly raised his energy. When he looked up, he saw that it was a man and a woman. The woman was wearing a long robe and hood, and her face was a little unseen. The man was wearing a short robe and hood, and her face was also covered very concealed, but it was better than a woman, and at least half of her face could be seen clearly.

The clerk is not surprised. In this remote place, few people like to expose themselves and ask, "How many days will you stay for two guests?"

"One day."

"If you have the identity certificate, 3 copper coins will be a night, if you don't have the identity certificate, 5 copper coins will be a night, isn't it a problem?"

"No problem." Xu Muying said, took out five copper coins from his waist and placed them on the table.

"Guest, the room is on the second floor."

Ai Lu trembled all over when she thought of something and said to Xu Mu: "I won't sleep in the same room as you!"

Xu Mu was stunned, then laughed out loud: "Of course I won't sleep with you. I have to spend money on my own when I go to bed. Could it be that I would like to pay for you?" After that, he turned around and went upstairs, ignoring Ai Lu.

Seeing Xu Mu like this, Ailu stomped her feet with Yinya, took out a copper coin from her waist and placed it on the table. Then she quickly went upstairs, muttering: "It's really not gentlemanly...!"

The clerk blinked his eyes. He thought the two were lovers, but he didn't expect...

In the afternoon, Xu Mu and Ailu made an appointment to visit Gote Town together.

Logically speaking, Ai Lu was wanted and shouldn't have wandered around the town like this, but it was very remote here. People lived here so that they were confused. It was better to have less than more things. As long as they didn't run to the guards and guilds to wander around, the probability of being caught was really low.

Before, two brothers in the black shop were targeted by the town, but mainly because Ailu himself was troublesome.

In this world, except for capital and big cities, the sanitation of towns is very poor. Vegetable sellers don’t mind the muddy floor. In his words, they have to wash even if they buy it back, and they care whether it’s dirty now.

Ai Lu avoided wanted traffic and had long been used to the situation in this small town. Otherwise, according to her previous living standards, she would never have stepped into this town, because this town was too dirty!

The two were walking, but unexpectedly, a figure suddenly rushed out of the alley next to him and almost hit Xu Mu.

After a closer look, it turned out to be a little girl. The little girl was wearing a ragged short cloak, her shirt was torn and dirty, and she was holding two wheat bread in her arms.

A man ran out from behind the alley, and the man grabbed the little girl and kicked her over.

The bread fell out of her arms and was muddy on the floor.

"Stinker bitch, I steal things if I don't pay attention!" A man kicked the little girl frantically.

The girl seemed to be unable to feel the pain, and she said nothing, even though she was next to the man's feet, she kept squirming towards the two pieces of bread.

A crowd of people watching the fun was surrounded by laughter and joy.

"It's this girl Sreta again."

"That's not, I've stole a few things in the past few days."

"Last time she stole my vegetables and caught me, I saw that she was still a child and let her go."

"Then what?"

"Haha, the next day, I took advantage of my inattention and stole my things, and I caught it and beat it. Some people couldn't spoil it!"

...

The girl who was still squirming on the ground finally stopped moving. Ai Lu watched the girl being kicked to death, and she couldn't bear to turn her head and look at Xu Mu.

Xu Mu's eyes were still cold under the hood, as if they didn't feel anything. Ai Lu felt powerless when she saw it, but she still said softly: "Do you want to save her?"

Xu Mu didn't say anything, but still looked at the girl lying on the floor. The man seemed to be tired of kicking, so he didn't continue to hurt the girl.

"Bastard, lose two of my bread!" Looking at the two breads stained with mud on the floor, the man became even more angry. He lowered his body and grabbed the girl's hair and lifted it up. He found that the girl's eyes were still trembling: "I'm still alive?! I'll catch you and sell it to the slave market later! Unlucky, my two breads are worth 3 copper coins! I really don't know how many copper coins are worth of this stinky bitch!"

When the girl heard that the man was going to sell her to the slave market, the girl's eyes widened and her body began to tremble.

"Don't... don't sell me..." The girl's mouth had already cracked, and the man almost couldn't hear it.

"Oh? If I don't sell you, are my two breads wasted like this?!" The man said, pressing the girl's head on the mud on the floor, "Do you know that you have stole so many things in the past few days? If you weren't for the sake of being a child, how many times would you die!" The man became more and more angry as he spoke, and he lifted his feet and kicked them.

The girl still endured the pain and did not scream.

"Save me..."

The girl raised her head and looked around with numb eyes, but the eyes from the crowd were ridiculous, as if no one cared about her life and death.

Suddenly the girl met a pair of cold eyes, which were as calm as a pool of stagnant water, and the owner of the eyes looked at herself as if she was looking at a dead person.

But the girl didn't understand why, and she actually opened her mouth to the cold-eyed master: "Can you... save me..."

When the crowd heard the girl asking for help from others, they all calmed down and their eyes were all turned on Xu Mu. Ai Lu was already feeling very uncomfortable when she saw the girl so much. She subconsciously pulled down the corner of Xu Mu's short robe.

The man who was kicking the girl also stopped. It would be better if someone wanted to save the girl, but this would be enough to compensate for the two breads he lost. Just give him three copper coins, and that would be fine.

Xu Mu came to the girl with a straight face and squatted down. The girl's hair was scattered in front of her face, her eyes trembled and numb, and her cracked mouth was still whispering: "Save me..."

"Why should I save you?" Xu Mu's voice was very small, and only two people could hear it, but his tone was extremely cold.

The girl didn't expect Xu Mu to ask her like this. She opened her mouth and wanted to say something, but she couldn't say anything, as if she was speechless.

"You can't do anything when you are powerless. Then when you have the ability, can you do anything?" Xu Mu didn't say anything, and everyone around him was confused when he heard it, not sure what his words meant.

The girl's eyes widened again, but the numbness in her eyes seemed to dissipate a lot, and she did not ask for help again.

"Young master, do you want to save her? Just give me three copper coins if you want to save her. I will give this girl to you!" The man was a little impatient.

Ai Lu couldn't help but want to put the wallet around her waist. She still had this little money, but she had made an agreement with Xu Mu before that they had to listen to Xu Mu's arrangements when they went out...

Xu Mu ignored the girl and stood up, glanced at the surroundings and the man in a cold manner, and then left the crowd without saying anything. Seeing this, Ai Lu hesitated for a while, gritted her teeth and left.

The crowd couldn't help but laugh, and some people joked with the man: "Three copper coins to save this thief? You think others are a great charity, don't dream!"

Seeing this, the man couldn't help but sigh: "Unfortunate!" After saying that, he picked up two breads on the ground. Although they couldn't sell them, the dirty part was still edible. Then he lifted the girl on the floor with one hand and left, as if he was really going to sell the girl to the slave market to make up for his losses.

As for whether men would do this, no one else cared. In the end, the crowd scattered and the streets became like nothing happened.

"Xu Mu..." Ai Lu followed Xu Mu and asked with a grudge, "Why didn't you save that girl!"

Xu Mu stopped and looked at Ai Lu coldly: "Why should I save her?"

Hearing this, Ai Lu couldn't help it: "Don't you feel a little uncomfortable when you look at that girl like this?! Could it be that you are reluctant to leave those three copper coins? If you are reluctant to leave, you can tell me, I can give it!"

"She is not worthy of your three copper coins."

"This is not a problem with a few copper coins!" Ai Lu gritted her teeth and cursed angrily, "How can you be so cold-blooded!"

Xu Mu looked at the angry Ai Lu and didn't reply immediately. Then he slowly said: "When she is powerless now, she can't do anything. Then you saved her once or twice, and she still can't do anything afterwards. You have to understand that the girl's current situation is really not worth your money to save her. If someone asks for help, he has to save himself first."

Ai Lu was angry and didn't care what Xu Mu said. She scolded Xu Mu a few more times and turned around and left, saying that she wanted to go back to the hotel.

Xu Mu's face was cold and he didn't stop him. Anyway, he signed a magic contract with Ai Lu, and even if Ai Lu was really angry, he would not leave him alone to find the property in the secret room.

Looking at Miaoman's back as Ai Lu left, Xu Mu shook his head and turned to leave.

I didn't expect that in this world, there were children of nobles who could be so kind. You should know that in the town before, all the powerful children in the family and the people in the poor cellar were one of their toys.

Although it is hard to say that, Xu Mu couldn't help but feel a little better about Ai Lu.

In the alley where the sun cannot shine in, a bakery is located inside, which makes Xu Mu know that a bakery is open in such a ghost place. Anyone with a little IQ knows that opening a bakery in such a place will lose pairs of underwear.

Sreta was thrown in a corner of the bakery. She had many injuries on her body, and even had a large piece of purple on her side, but her muddy face had a pair of eyes that were no longer confused.
