Chapter 7 Sleita's Struggle

The bakery man came over with a bucket of water and poured it directly on Sreta.

The water soaked her clothes, Sreta looked up at the man.

The man snorted, and suddenly he found something, squatted down with interest, reached out and pinched Sreta's chin: "I didn't expect that your face looked pretty good. I guess you might be able to sell it at a good price when you took you to the slave market."

As soon as she heard about the slave market, Sretaro's small body couldn't help but tremble again, but this time she didn't beg for mercy.

"Damn it, no one is here to buy bread today." The man shook his eyes outside and found that he had not opened for a whole day. He was a little resentful. He looked down at Sreta, who had not yet bloomed completely. He couldn't help but feel evil and smiled lewdly: "Anyway, I have to sell you, so why not make me happy first!"

As he said that, the man's hand reached towards Sreita, but Sreita actually took the initiative to stretch out his tender hand and grabbed the man's palm.

The man thought Sreta was going to resist, and was about to slap her backwards to educate her, but found that it was not.

The numb eyes that were once very tender and not her age showed

...

After Xu Mu finished purchasing outside, he had found a lot of money from the body of the boss of the black shop. Now he can be considered a lot of money. Since he has money, he naturally has to spend it well and buy all the equipment he wanted to buy before.

Xu Mu even bought a strong horse in the horse shed, which was his biggest expense today and the most worthwhile one. It is impossible to say that he and Ai Lu walked to the border of the kingdom with their feet.

Xu Mu also specially spent money to make a pair of double saddles. Although it also cost a lot of money, it would save money than buying more horses. As for whether Ailu was willing to ride a horse with him, it was not within his consideration. If she didn't want to, it would be better for her to walk.

Xu Mu returned to the place where Sreita had an accident before and found that the crowd in front of him had surrounded him again, and a noise came from inside.

"Wow, this girl actually bit off the finger of the bakery man...!"

"It's really scary. I'm afraid I'm so hungry that I'm chewing the man's fingers as bread."

"This time Sreta is probably unable to escape."

...

Xu Mu frowned and hurriedly squeezed into the crowd. Then he found that the man who kicked the girl before was full of blood at this time. After a closer look, he even found that a finger had been broken.

At this time, the man was holding a stick as thick as an arm in his left hand, hitting Sreta who was lying on the ground. Every time he waved the stick, he could hear the sound of wind.

Sreta, who fell to the ground, didn't cry when he was next to the stick, as if he was dead.

"This...Sreta is afraid he will be beaten to death!"

"This is too cruel..."

The noisy sound of the crowd squeezed into Xu Mu's ears. He felt uncomfortable and lowered his hood and wanted to turn around and leave, pretending that he had not seen this.

However, someone said something and got a response in Xu Mu's mind.

"What's the point of this child Sreta struggling? Even if he was sold to the slave market, he still had a place to go. It's better than starving to death outside..."

The man felt that he had been deceived. He felt the tenderness brought by the young Sreta at that time. He even had the idea of ​​raising her in his heart. Unexpectedly... He actually bit off a finger for her. If he hadn't endured the pain and chased her, he would have really let the bitch run away!

The more I think about it, the more angry I get, the more painful the broken fingers of my right hand will be, and the sticks I waved with my left hand will become more fierce.

However, at this moment, the man was suddenly kicked away by someone and fell to the ground and became confused. When he looked up, he found that it was the man in the hood he had just seen today.

The man was about to get angry, but suddenly he stared at the man in the hood with cold eyes, and he immediately did not dare to show off his anger.

"You...what do you want to do?"

Xu Mu ignored him and lowered his body to check Sreta's injuries.

Sreta seemed to feel something, forcibly turned his head to look at Xu Mu, and the two met again. Sreta's mouth was covered with blood, and his eyes were no longer numb.

Xu Mu's eyes were no longer cold, but instead began to tremble.

Sreta's cracked mouth opened slightly and said again: "Save me..."

"Um."

Xu Mu agreed without hesitation. Sreta seemed to hear the best words in the world, and forced the corner of her mouth, and then fainted.

Take out three silver coins from the purse at waist, and Xu Mu threw them directly into the man's face.

"These three silver coins are used as compensation." Xu Mu hugged Sreta and looked at the man sitting on the ground coldly.

The man quickly picked up the three silver coins, and he immediately smiled happily as if he had forgotten the pain, and ignored Xu Mu at all.

Seeing that there was no follow-up trouble, Xu Mu hugged Sreta and left the crowd.

The onlookers began to point fingers at Xu Mu, and how could people who could spend three silver coins at will not be surprised in this remote town?

On the second floor of the hotel, Ai Lu was sitting in her room. Now she calmed down and regretted her anger at Xu Mu.

After all, Xu Mu was right. The girl really had no need to save her. Even Ailu couldn't save herself, so how could she have the ability to save others?

Besides, they had made three rules before, and they had to follow Xu Mu's arrangements in the follow-up actions...

Just as Ai Lu was upset with her temper, a sound came from Xu Mu's room next to her. She sighed and stood up, wanting to go over and apologize to Xu Mu.

When Ai Lu opened the door of Xu Mu's room, she looked surprised.

The girl lying in muddy on the bed was the bullied girl she saw on the street today.

Xu Mu looked at Ai Lu and said lightly: "Come here to help clean it."

"Okay." Ai Lu came back to her senses and responded quickly.

Ai Lu was responsible for cleaning the girl, while Xu Mu ran to the duffel bag to search for medicine, and took out everything whether it was useful or not.

"Why is this girl so seriously injured?" Ai Lu checked her injuries while cleaning, but the result followed was unbelievable.

Xu Mu held the medicine beside the bed, and he still said lightly: "How is the injury?"

"Broken... a few bones, I don't know if there is internal bleeding in her organs."

Xu Mu frowned: "You can heal magic, right?"

"It's OK...but the effect is not particularly good, and I don't have enough magic, so I can only repair the bones. As for the others, I have to use medicine to recuperate."

"Then you can do it first."

"Healing magic is not omnipotent, the process of repairing bones will be very painful... Then you can help comfort her." Ai Lu took a deep breath.

Xu Mu nodded and said, "This girl... has never cried out pain from beginning to end, it should be fine."

Ai Lu didn't chat anymore. She pressed her right palm towards Sreta and her left hand against her chest. She muttered something in her mouth, and a red magic seal appeared around her again.

This time Xu Mu looked at it very carefully, and the magic seal was bent and twisted like a dead tree, but the mainland emitted a strong natural energy.

"My compassionate Goddess Earth, please look at the girl in front of you mercifully. She is in pain at this moment. May your kindness give God the wish...healing!"

As soon as the words fell, the originally red magic seal turned pale green, and a spring breeze rose from Ai Lu's right hand and swept across Sreta.

Sreta's body began to emit green light, like a dead tree in spring, extremely dazzling.

As Ai Lu said before, the process of repairing bones was extremely painful. Sreta, who was originally unconscious, suddenly opened his mouth and screamed in pain.

"ah...!"

This was the first time that Xu Mu saw Sreta speak in pain. He couldn't bear it but didn't know what to do.

Sreta's young body stood up, his eyes opened, and his face was in great pain.

She turned her head and saw Xu Mu with a cold face. Sreta stretched out her trembling hand, her mouth squirmed, and opened her mouth, "Brother... Sreta hurts so much...! Ah!"

Xu Mu grabbed Sreta's outstretched hand, softened his face, and said softly: "It's good for a while...it's good for a while..."

"Brother, someone beat me... Someone uses a stick to beat me, Sreta hurts so much..."

"Brother is here, don't be afraid..."

...

After the healing magic was released, the room finally became quiet. Sreta no longer cried and cried out in pain, but instead fell asleep quietly with a small hand in Xu Mu's hand.

The best healing magic is water magic and light magic. Ai Lu forced his healing magic to use, which also caused great damage to his body. He had no reply to all his magic power when fighting with the two brothers in the black shop yesterday.

Ai Lu had a pale face. She sat by the bed, watching Xu Mu holding Sreta's hand. She was obviously tired but couldn't help laughing: "You'd better save her, I thought..."

"I didn't save her, she saved herself." Xu Mu said lightly.

"Yeah..."

"Once..." Xu Mu's eyes were a little dim, "I was so hungry that I was almost fainting. I couldn't stand it, so I had to steal other people's food. Like her, I was also caught and beaten violently. I almost thought I was going to be killed. At that time, I asked the crowd around me for help, hoping that they could save my life... But no one in the crowd took action, and everyone looked at me coldly, as if they didn't care about my life or death..."

"You..." Ai Lu couldn't help feeling distressed when she saw Xu Mu showing a rare look.

"I survived later. At that time, I swear that no matter what happens, no matter how difficult life is and no ability, I will grit my teeth and hold it back... Even if I may die, I will still struggle to survive. If people ask for help... I must save themselves." Xu Mu sighed, "Today, I saw that her eyes were dull, and she seemed to have no expectations for the future... Then she looked at me again and asked for help from me! At that time, she looked at her, as if she looked at me a few years ago, and I fell to the ground to ask for help from others a few years ago... I really wanted to save her, but her numb expression was like a walking corpse..."

Xu Mu held Sreta's hand and was suddenly held by a pair of gentle hands. He looked up and saw that it was Ai Lu. Ai Lu smiled pale and said, "I understand."

Xu Mu looked at the hands of the three people in front of him and smiled: "So don't blame me for not saving her immediately..."
