Cao'er didn't know whether Qinan was serious or joking. The difference in the environment was too big, and it took her a long time to adapt before accepting this fact.

The two set up a wooden frame near the eaves, covered it with some clean cloth on the top, and then spread quilts on the ground, so that a temporary shelter was set up.

There is another advantage here in Beggar's Den. There are few people and it is cool.

After all, it is a gathering place for people who have experienced wandering to make a living. Apart from being a little shabby, it has good lighting and ventilation.

They also weeded the weeds near the shelf. Qi Nan was too tired to move today, so he and Cao'er stayed in the small house and ate the roast chicken they brought out.

"Do you smell anything?"

The beggar Huzi who had been sleeping before jumped up from the ground like a carp.

He bent over and sniffed around the other beggars, but for a while he only smelled the sour, stinky smell of sweat coming from his companions, as if the scent he smelled before was his illusion.

"What are you doing? You're smelling here like a dog. We haven't been out of this ruined temple today. Is there any fragrance for you to smell?"

I think you are hallucinating from hunger after sleeping for a long time. Take the time to take a break, lest you go out to beg for food in the evening without being smart and come back empty stomach. "

The person talking to Huzi was the old beggar from before, named Uncle Mu.

He is the youngest among this group of beggars, and it is also his credit for finding this ruined temple so that the beggars can live in it.

He still has a lot of say among the beggars.

At the same time, he is the most worrying beggar.

Especially this Hu Zi, who seems to be very clever on weekdays, and his hands and feet are also very nimble.

But when it came time to beg for food, he was as dull as a fool. Getting him to say nice and auspicious words to those people is as difficult as killing him.

In the eyes of the old beggar, he only had a good body but a pig's brain.

If such a person works hard enough to find a job in Liangcheng, it will be no better than being a beggar here who only has one meal and no next meal!

Huzi was obedient when he was begging for food outside, but he was very talkative when he was inside the beggar's den.

"No, I trust my nose."

He simply straightened up, closed his eyes and took a deep breath in the air.

"I smelled it right, the fragrance seemed to come from behind.

1 It must be those two brats just now, hiding behind and secretly eating something good.

It's so unethical that when we arrive on our territory, we still want to eat alone. "

Seeing Huzi's excited look, Uncle Mu knew that he was going to be at a loss again.

He gave Huzi a brain coin and said, "Everyone comes to this ruined temple to rest because they are desperate, so don't be too overbearing.

You can eat whatever you want from your own food, so you wouldn’t want to take something from two young children! "

"But I'm still just a child!" Huzi retorted unconvinced. "I think they are not much younger than me. And look at their sly expressions just now, maybe they have some agenda for coming to our place?"

Uncle Mu was almost stunned by Hu Zi's kindness.

"What's the plan? It's because you don't take a bath for 7 days, or it's because of the smelly fleas in this ruined temple.

Don't think about making trouble every day, living peacefully is more important than anything else. "

Huzi was always rebellious, and when Uncle Mu said this, he felt suffocated in his heart.

Originally, he just talked about it verbally and wanted to know what it was that smelled so good.

Now he really wanted to see what happened.

He no longer paid attention to Uncle Mu's preaching and came to the abandoned back yard of the ruined temple. After seeing Qinan and the others' newly built small frame house, a hint of surprise flashed in their eyes.

It was often windy in the backyard, and the moderate wind blew the cloth on the wooden frame into a small corner.

Qi Nan and Cao'er inside didn't notice anything unusual yet. Seeing that the wind was about to blow away the clean and beautiful cloth, Huzi quickly found a small stone from the ground and compacted the corner again.

Seeing that the wind could no longer blow the cloth, he smiled with satisfaction in the void.

After thinking about his purpose, he stopped laughing again.

Only then did he stop smiling, and Qi Nan inside also walked out.

The sound of him picking up rocks just now alerted Qi Nan and the others inside.

1 Seeing that it was the beggar who had a bad tone before, Qin Nan was not sure of his purpose for a while, so he stood quietly, waiting for him to speak first.

"Um...I want to ask what food you eat tastes so good?"

Huzi rubbed his head in embarrassment. He didn't know what was going on in his brain.

He had obviously come to find out this so arrogantly before, but when he finally found him, he even stammered when facing Qi Nan's eyes.

"Roast chicken."

Qi Nanyan answered him briefly and concisely.

Then he went back to his little room. Just when Huzi thought he was asking for trouble, he still figured out the source of the scent and was about to leave.

Qinan came out again and called him.

"There are some leftovers here, take them and eat them! You can also consider what I said before."

The roast chicken in Qinan's hand looked still intact. Just now, she and Cao'er only ate chicken legs and wings, and after eating some pastries, they couldn't eat anymore, so the roast chicken looked like it hadn't been touched much. look.

Huzi was a little flattered.

The temptation of roast chicken broke through the embarrassment in his mind.

He took the roast chicken, said thank you several times to Qinan, and went to find Uncle Mu and the others happily.

He had to eat without going to beg for food today, which would make him happy for a whole day.

Qin Nan didn't care too much about the gain or loss of a roast chicken.

They have to live here for a while, these beggars are just like her neighbors.

Now I think of it as giving some food to the neighbors and bringing them closer together.

As dusk fell, the foreman who had previously built the house also arrived as scheduled.

He was very cautious along the way, making many twists and turns, and after a long time he quietly arrived at the ruined temple.

As soon as he entered the door, he stared at a group of beggars.

"Excuse me, do you have a person named Miss Qi here?"

The foreman was confused. He didn't see Qin Nan or the others here. Could it be that that person was deceiving him?

The beggars were also surprised, what was going on in their ruined temple today, and why people kept breaking in.

Huzi just felt baffled that the roasted chicken was shared by them. He was satisfied with his addiction and was in a good mood now, so he patiently explained to the foreman.

"Are you mistaken? We are a beggar's den here. Where can we find any young ladies? It's getting late and we have to go out to beg for food. Don't wander around here! What if you get raped by some street gangster? If you get entangled, it will be easy for you."
