Nangui County is a mountain city that rises along the river. From the north to the south of the city, a main road is almost a straight rolling slope.

Shi Qing galloped on the main road, followed by the older girls from the nursery.

Li Chaoshuang's guess was correct. In order to survive in Nangui City, the adults and children in the Salesian House have consciously formed a club.Belonging to this part of the gangster rampant in the state capital, among the tricks and abductions, only abductions are not done.

When they went to the street, it was like a herd of monkeys coming out of the cage. It was not the girls who were supposed to be vulnerable, but pedestrians, and even a few Shijiajun who swaggered.

Shi Qing's ape arm wasp waist, her figure is quite vigorous, and the undulating road steps and pedestrians have no effect on her speed

The girls ran after her like tomboys. From time to time, a mud monkey would suddenly come out of the street and alley, merge into it, and shout to her:

"Zhang Mazi's family just passed by here!"

"Fishweed on the pier! Will keep an eye on them!"

"Aunt Qing, Aunt Qing, will we have a new sister today!"

"Begging to be beaten," Shi Qing scolded as he ran, "What new sister? No matter what, she can be raised by her own parents, isn't it better than sending her to our small yard? I'm just going to persuade Wang Xiaoniang not to throw her baby away. into the river!"

"Aunt Qing is the best!"

"Aunt Qing is the best at raising us!"

"Even if Zhang Mazi's family didn't throw the baby girl into the river, they would definitely not devote themselves to raising the baby girl. Why don't you come and be our little sister!"

They were giggling, Shi Qing yelled, and tried to fight, these girls scattered.

At this time, she, dressed in men's clothing, was approaching the Nancheng Gate of Nangui County.

Outside the city gate, there is a patch of dilapidated shacks, built in muddy mud, extending to the wharf and ferry of the Mingzhu River and the Long River.

Nangui City is built on the bend where the Long River flows into the Pearl River. Although it is located in the southwestern part of the wilderness, it can be regarded as a major hub of the Great Southern Wilderness due to the convenience of waterways.

There are a lot of people coming and going here, Shi Qing glanced around with wide eyes, but couldn't find where Wang Xiaoniang was at all.

Fortunately, there was a thirteen or fourteen-year-old girl named Yucao, who was waiting at the south gate. She had been hanging out at the pier recently. When she got the news, she ran over and saw the striking Shi Qing appearing. Immediately yelled and waved.

"Aunt Qing, this way, this way!"

"How's it going?" Shi Qing asked through the crowd.

The little girl turned around to lead the way, and at the same time said anxiously: "Mazi and his wife just left the city with their baby in their arms! They should be in time!"

While talking, one big and one small shuttled between the shantytowns, and the surrounding population gradually became scarce.

Seeing a man and a woman by the river, Shi Qing immediately speeded up and shouted twice at the same time: "Zhang Mazi! Wang Xiaoniang!"

Her voice was really full of energy, resounding through the sky, startling a group of gulls and herons on the river beach.

A husband and a woman on the bank all turned their heads, the husband was thin and thin, probably because of a childhood illness, his face was so full of pockmarks that he couldn't distinguish his facial features.And the woman had no flesh on her cheeks, her face was pale, her skirt was stained with blood, but her lips had no blood at all.

She was covered in cold sweat, staggered, hunched over, and knelt by the river, holding a baby in her arms that was only wrapped in a few pieces of thin cloth.

The baby's face was half covered, only a small piece of black skin was exposed, and no sound was heard.

Shi Qing rushed in front of the two of them, without even taking a breath, he shouted loudly: "Zhang Mazi! Stop it! Your baby girl is also a life! If you throw the baby girl into the river, won't you be afraid of the curse from the young lady!"

When the woman named Wang Xiaoniang heard the words, she fell limply to the ground, and an inhuman wail burst out from her throat.

Zhang Mazi took a step to the right, standing between Shi Qing and his wife.

Although he is a man, he is shorter and thinner than Shi Qing.Therefore, he was very afraid of shrinking, and after blocking Shi Qing, he couldn't help taking a step back, crying with his chest in his mouth:

"Young Master ordered the lady to curse us, then, then curse, the family does not have a ration, and my mother-in-law has no milk, how can she support her?"

"When you give birth to a newborn, you can go to the witch temple to beg for food. Shao Si Ming Niangniang Temple has special blessings for newborns. Wang Xiaoniang has no milk, so you can ask the priest to help you through it." Shi Qing said, wanting to bypass Zhang Mazi, go to see the situation of Wang Xiaoniang and the baby girl, "I know you will say that you have no money to invite the officiant, but there are other little mothers-in-law besides the officiant in the witch temple. Asking them to practice their hands will only cost a penny or two, or even no money." It's possible!"

"Miss Shi, I don't know about this! But last month, my neighbor's old Liu's family added a child and asked for a blessing. In the end, the blessing was not as good as in previous years, and it was not even enough for three days!" Zhang Mazi bent over. Even lower, but she used her thin body to firmly block Shi Qing, preventing her from approaching, "As for breastfeeding... Those kind mothers-in-law really don't ask for extra money, but they will ask for a meal fee, saying that they won't give it to the mother-in-law Eat, even if they cast a spell, the mother-in-law will not be able to produce milk, my family, my family really can't afford the money!"

Shi Qing pursed her lips, her facial features became more vicious.

Because she can be regarded as the most powerful family in Nangui City. Although the girls in the Nursery Home are short of food and clothing, they cannot be said to be the most miserable people in Nangui County.

And Shi Qing knew that, not to mention Tai Tai, but only in Nangui City, there were many people whose lives were worse than those of the children in the Nursery.

Zhang Mazi's family is listed here.

Shi Qing took a deep breath, full of fishy smell, said:

"You also know about the Salesian Home. If your family doesn't raise it, give it to me."

Zhang Mazi and Wang Xiaoniang behind him were silent.

"What's the condition of the nursery? You've seen it before. Several of them were... just like yours. They were all baby girls who were going to be buried alive or drowned. Now they're looking good." Shi Qing resolutely said. Said, "You know how good my character is. The girl in the sales house can have a bite to eat and learn a craft no matter what. If you want to take her back someday, if she is willing, there is nothing wrong with it."

Zhang Mazi looked back at his wife, but remained silent.

Shi Qing bent down deeply, begging:

"Give me the child."

At this time, only the river wind blows the water plants rolling in the Pearl River.

A moment later, the little girl who was following behind Shi Qing and helping to guard suddenly raised her eyebrows and shouted:

"Aunt Qing, that younger sister has never cried!"

"!"

Shi Qing was startled, stopped talking politely, directly used her tall body to knock Zhang Mazi away, and rushed to Wang Xiaoniang's side.

Looking closer, she suddenly became furious.

The thin cloth wrapped around the baby girl, and even the baby girl herself, were soaked and dripping.

What was dripping was blood, Zhang Mazi and Wang Xiaoniang had already drowned their daughter in the delivery basin long before they left the house, and they only went out to throw away the bones.

That is to say, when Shi Qing just left the yard and heard about this, the poor girl was already dead.

Furious, she grabbed the baby girl's body and cursed tremblingly, "What are you two doing!"

Wang Xiaoniang let out another howl, and spoke for the first time in her sobs:

"...If you don't let her suffer more, next time she is given to me by the young lady, then what should I do? I have to give birth to a son for Lao Zhang."

It is not the first time that Shi Qing has heard such words when she was the leader of the Nangui City Salesian... for six or seven years, but she still couldn't help but say:

"This is your girl!"

Wang Xiaoniang cried: "It's my daughter, I don't want her to suffer in this world! In today's Datai, there is no way for a woman to survive!"

Shi Qing never agreed with this statement, she ground her teeth when she heard this, and asked Zhang Mazi again:

"If the daughter can't afford it, can the son afford it?!"

Zhang Mazi, who got up from the ground, raised his chest and head in front of her, and said loudly:

"Son is different."

He couldn't take it for granted, and repeated again:

"Son is different!"

The couple also wanted to snatch their daughter's body and throw it into the river.

Shi Qing bared her teeth at them, scaring them away.

In the end, by the river beach, there were only a woman in men's clothing holding a small corpse, and a dejected fish and grass girl.

After a while, Yucao asked, "Aunt Qing, are you going to be buried? I can scrape together three coins to buy a coffin."

Shi Qing was silent for a moment, then said: "It cannot be buried here."

As soon as the words fell, she suddenly heard a strange voice asking: "Wait before burying."

Another somewhat familiar voice asked, "Are we late?"

Shi Qing turned around in surprise, and saw that mysterious and unpredictable stranger, who was carried by a handsome young man, came to the side at some time.

...Did I just wander off?Shi Qing, who is considered the son of Lian's family, thought.

She has practiced the martial arts that was passed down from the Jiange to the folk, and her five senses are far more sensitive than ordinary people. In the entire Nangui City, no two people can approach her quietly.

But this young man came over with a person on his back, and she didn't notice it at all when he came to such a close place.

Ah Yun put down Li Chaoshuang who couldn't move even halfway, looked at Shi Qing curiously, and couldn't help frowning when he saw the small corpse in her arms.

Li Chaoshuang helped him by the shoulders, first said to the elders and children present: "I'm sorry", and then looked at the baby girl.

Ah Yun Road has heard that a group of people wanted to take away his yard, and they came here to trouble Shi Qing with righteousness, but they stopped complaining when they got here—complaining that his yard is dirty and dilapidated must be the problem of these neighbors.

He looked carefully, and then exchanged glances with Li Chaoshuang.

Open the second eyelid, in the field of vision that ordinary people can't see, next to Shi Qing and Yucao girl, the soul of a green and black baby girl is floating, holding the arm of her own skeleton, unwilling to let go, crying and trying to get back.

Her crying was full of longing for life and resentment.He resented that he had left the mortal world before his eyes were opened.

Hearing the cry, Li Chaoshuang was stunned, but this was definitely not the point at the moment.

The important point is that a white-bone boat sailed to the riverside, in front of Shi Qing and Yucao girl, but Shi Qing and Yucao girl's behavior seemed to have never been seen.

Standing on this bone boat is a woman wearing a bright red hood, a red jacket and a red skirt.

Her face under the hood was like mist, blurred, obviously a ghost.

As if thinking that no one here could see what she was doing, the female ghost in red raised her hand and forcibly tore the baby girl's soul from the corpse.

At this time, the cuffs of her red jacket swelled without wind, and short hands that were bloody and bloody, and short hands that looked like baby arms, stretched out from it, and let out a painful wail.

Hearing this wailing, the baby girl's soul began to struggle hard.But the hand of the female ghost in red, the short hand protruding from the sleeve of the female ghost in red, grabbed her tightly, trying to drag her into the cuff that couldn't stop bleeding.

Seeing this, Li Chaoshuang let go of Ah Yun's shoulder.

As soon as he raised his hand, the young man who couldn't bear it for a long time rushed out and came to the bone boat.

He grabbed the soul of the baby girl who was about to be devoured, and at the same time kicked the ghost in red with his right foot!
