He had only taken a few steps when a little girl of about five or six years old rushed out of the alley beside him.
The little girl was wearing baggy clothes that were obviously not suitable for her. Her clothes were tattered and dirty, and there were countless patches on them.
The little girl's face was also dirty, but her eyes were very bright.
She held a broken porcelain bowl and rushed to Linlong. Then, she asked pitifully, "Uncle, can you give me a copper coin?"
Linlong looked around and realized that there was no one else around. Moreover, the little girl's eyes were very clear. It seemed like she was not used by some gang to scam people. Therefore, Linlong took out an ingot of silver and placed it in the little girl's broken bowl.
Although the reborn Linlong was arrogant, he also had a kind side.
Looking at the ingot of silver, the little girl's eyes immediately lit up. However, she said timidly, "Uncle, just give me a copper coin."
It was obvious that Linlong's ingot of silver was too "heavy" for her. She did not dare to accept it at all.
"Hmm …" Linlong frowned and then said very sternly, "Just take it."
Linlong understood that for a little girl like her, if he did not act fiercely, she would not even dare to accept such an unimaginable amount of silver.
"Then … Thank you, Uncle." Linlong's expression scared the little girl. After a while, she finally said this.
"Hmm." After responding softly, Linlong continued to walk towards the inn in front of him.
Unexpectedly, he heard the little girl's hurried footsteps behind him.
When he turned around, he saw the little girl following closely behind him. Although her little face was full of fear and worry, there was also an inexplicable sense of anticipation.
"What's wrong? Is there anything else?" Linlong frowned.
Although he had a kind heart, it didn't mean that he was kind enough to save people who were suffering from suffering from a life of suffering.
After all, there were too many people like that in this world. Even if Linlong had three heads and six arms, he would not be able to do that.
"Uncle, I …" The little girl wanted to say something but stopped.
"Speak."
"Uncle, my mother is very sick. Can you save her?" The little girl looked at Linlong expectantly.
"If you're seriously ill, find a doctor," said Linlong. To be honest, his top-grade healing medicine could cure most serious illnesses, but he naturally wouldn't take out a top-grade healing medicine for a little girl he had just met.
Although this top-grade healing medicine was not very precious to him, he would not easily give it to others. After all, if he took it out to sell, he did not know how much money he could sell it for.
Perhaps, after knowing its curative effects, the martial artists in this town would definitely break their heads to snatch it.
"I've seen the doctor, but …"
At this moment, a man who looked like a porter stopped and sighed. He said to Linlong, "Little brother, Little Ya does have a seriously ill mother, but even the best doctor in town can't cure her. But Little Ya doesn't give up. Every time she meets a kind stranger, she will beg them, so please don't take it to heart."
"Oh." Linlong nodded lightly as if he understood.
"Sigh." After letting out another sigh, the man shook his head and left.
Obviously, he wanted to help Little Ya, but he did not have the ability.
The conversation between the two seemed to make the little girl feel that there was little hope. Hence, a look of disappointment appeared on her little face. Then, she said to Linlong softly, "Uncle, sorry to disturb you."
However, she did not expect Linlong's next words to be, "Little girl, take me to see your mother."
"Really?" The little girl was immediately happy.
In her opinion, Linlong's promise seemed to mean that her mother could be cured.
"Yes, of course." Linlong smiled softly.
For some reason, he saw a little of Xiao Die's shadow on this little girl. Hence, he naturally felt sad.
After following the little girl for a while, they arrived in front of a dilapidated thatched house.
From afar, Linlong could hear the sound of a woman coughing from inside the thatched house.
After following the little girl in, Linlong saw a pale young woman lying on a bed inside.
This woman looked rather delicate. Not only did she not look like an ordinary farmer's woman, but she also had a scholarly aura. This made Linlong feel slightly surprised.
"Mother, Little Ya is back," Little Ya called out obediently.
"Little Ya, this uncle is?" Seeing Linlong, the young woman looked very surprised.
At the same time, she struggled to sit up.
"This is the uncle that Little Ya found to help treat mother's illness," Little Ya said in a crisp voice.
"Little Ya, you little girl … How can you trouble others so casually?" Hearing Little Ya say that, the young woman immediately reprimanded her.
Then, she quickly turned to Linlong and said, "Mister … I'm really sorry. Our Little Ya is not sensible."
She did not think that young Linlong could cure an illness that even the doctors in the town could not cure. Moreover, Linlong did not know them. Even if he had medical skills, how could he treat her illness?
Linlong smiled and said, "Big Sister, I have a pill here. Perhaps it can cure your illness."
"Really?" The young woman was a little surprised. Realizing that she had lost her composure, she immediately said awkwardly, "Mister, I've embarrassed myself in front of you. But, how can I let you …"
Before she could finish speaking, Linlong's finger had already pointed in the air. After that, her entire body suddenly went numb. Then, her mouth opened involuntarily.
At that moment, Linlong, who had taken out a pill from his pocket, flicked his finger again. That pill flew directly into the young woman's mouth and slid into her stomach.
"Just take it as giving Little Ya face … Little Ya, take care of your mother." After saying that, Linlong turned around and left the toilet.
After coming to her senses, Little Ya hurriedly ran out of the toilet. However, she could not see Linlong's figure.
After coming to her senses, Linlong hurriedly ran out of the toilet. However, she could not see Linlong's figure.
After booking a room in the inn, Linlong went to the market in the town for a while. This market was obviously much smaller than the one in Chu Xi Town. However, Linlong still found what he wanted.
It was a map of the town and its surroundings. Although it was not very detailed, it was already not bad.
He collected a lot of information about the beast, but most of it was illusory. Other than proving that there seemed to be such a beast here, it did not have much use.
It seemed like he could only rely on himself.
After making this decision, Linlong began to search for the beast in the surrounding mountains the next day.
