Wandering in the world of martial arts

Chapter 211 I Didn't Want to Escape
It's just that without food, it really hurts.

He needs to restore his body's functions by eating.

There are still some things in the ruminant stomach, but the amount is not much, and they are all needed in case of emergency.

After Wu Chen finished eating, the woman took the leftover bowls and chopsticks and left with the boy.

However, today's business is not over yet.

Next, people came over one after another and questioned Wu Chen in various ways.

Of course, they definitely couldn't ask anything, because Wu Chen didn't know anything at all, including what he should know.

Maybe his performance was a bit too much. He was clearly telling the truth, but these villagers felt that he was pretending.

This made Wu Chen really speechless.

After a day of tossing, it came to night.

There is another meal in the evening.

The habit here is to eat in the morning and in the evening.

Only the richer families will also have a meal at noon.

However, Wu Chen was given only a bowl of gruel.

Not enough for him to get between his teeth.

When night fell, Wu Chen was still nestled in this utility room in a daze.

But at this moment, a figure walked in.

It was the boy named Xinghai.

His face was still vaguely green, about eighteen or nineteen years old, under a pair of dark eyebrows, his eyes were bright, filled with a simple light.

Although Wu Chen was upset about being imprisoned here for no reason, he still had a good impression of this young man.

When he came in, he seemed to be carrying something in his hand.

Wu Chen sniffed his nose, and a smile appeared between his brows and eyes.

"Brother Xinghai, I smelled meat from a long distance away. If I'm not mistaken, what you're holding is rat meat?"

"Hey, your nose is pretty good, but I can't figure it out, you can smell rat meat?" The young man froze for a moment, very surprised.

"What's the matter, do you think I've never eaten rat meat? Let me tell you, I've even eaten worms!" Wu Chen smiled proudly, with a sense of pride at the top of the food chain.

"Really? I thought a pampered person like you wouldn't eat this kind of food." The boy pouted.

"Pampered? Doesn't that sound like a good word? Brother Xinghai, I think you should describe me as hardworking." Wu Chen said dissatisfiedly with the corner of his mouth twitching.

"I should be right, the food here is not good, but if you just eat a little vegetable soup, you will suffer?

Moreover, judging from your appearance, you don't look like someone who has done rough work. "The boy said with a smile.

Wu Chen rolled his eyes.

This is not true.

After all, he is a modern person. Modern people have enough to eat and wear warm clothes. Many physical tasks are done by machines, and there are very few people who do heavy work.

"You brought me food, does the village know?" Wu Chen asked.

The boy fell silent for a moment, as if he didn't want to answer the question.

"Eat it while it's hot."

He handed over a plate of roasted meat on a wooden platter.

These meats are all cut up, and it is impossible to tell what kind of meat they belong to from the outside.

This young man was quite careful, probably because he was afraid that Wu Chen would stop eating the meat if he knew what it was.

"eat together."

Wu Chen waved to him.

"No need, since you are injured, you can just eat, I'm not hungry." The boy shook his head.

"Don't, at least eat a few yuan, or I'll be the only one who is embarrassed to eat too much." Wu Chen strongly invited.

The young man had no choice but to agree reluctantly, and sat opposite Wu Chen.

Next, the two of them chatted while eating roasted mice.

Of course, Wu Chen was mainly eating.

"Xinghai, I see that you have some knowledge in martial arts, who did you learn your kung fu from?"

"There is a tradition of kung fu in the village.

When we were young, we would practice together under the arrangement of the masters in the village.

But when you grow up, you have to do a lot of work, and the time for practicing will be reduced a lot.

In addition, the food was not good enough, so in terms of martial arts advancement, it was only average. "

The young man spoke briefly.

Wu Chen nodded, and didn't ask further what kind of kung fu they were practicing.

Because he is now being suspected of being a spy.

It would be silly to ask this question again.

"You said that people from the Dragon Swimming Club came to the village a month ago? What did they come for?"

"Receive." When the young man mentioned this matter, his face looked a little unhappy.

"Acceptor?"

"Yes, the Dragon Club will go down to the village from time to time to recruit some newcomers."

"Then why didn't you participate? Could it be that your strength is too weak and they don't want it?" Wu Chen blinked.

"You are weak!" The young man glared at Wu Chen, and snorted, "My strength is the strongest among the younger generation in the village. I can beat you at least three times. But, I... I... "

"I" After a long time, he sighed in a low voice, "I have to take care of my mother. She is not in good health and is always bedridden. Once I leave, she..."

"You are a filial son." Wu Chen patted him on the shoulder, applauding the young man's filial piety.

"You don't need to praise me. I know what you are thinking about when you ask me this."

The boy glanced at Wu Chen and said, "I remind you, don't think about running away.

At night, we won't keep an eye on you, but the dogs in our village are not stupid. If you go out alone, they will bark. At that time, the village will be alarmed, so you don't want to wash it off. suspected. "

"I didn't want to run away." Wu Chen said insincerely.

"I thought you didn't look like a spy, so I brought you something to eat with good intentions. You must not disappoint my trust in you." The young man stared at Wu Chen with simple eyes.

"Then thank you Brother Xinghai for your trust. Don't worry, I, Wu Chen, dare to swear to the sky that I am definitely not a spy. Otherwise, I will be struck by lightning!" Wu Chen immediately swore solemnly.

"Really, but you were struck by lightning just now?" The boy smiled teasingly.

Wu Chen's face darkened instantly.

After the rat meat was finished, the two chatted for a while, and the boy left.

While sending him away, Wu Chen took a special look outside the door.

Sure enough, he found that there were two dogs squatting outside the door, one on the left and the other on the right. When they saw him, they even barked at him a few times.

After Wu Chen went back, he lay down on the haystack for a while, but couldn't fall asleep, so he got up, tapped on the surrounding walls, looked at the roof, and fell into deep thought.

It is definitely not allowed to walk through the door, there are dogs at the door.

Breaking the wall will not work, too much movement.

The only possibility is from the roof.

As long as you climb up the beams and lift the tiles, you can escape from the roof.

Still, it doesn't work.

If the village dog had been wiser, he would have barked no matter whether he went out by the door or the roof.

And more importantly...

"You must never betray my trust in you."

Xinghai's words suddenly echoed in Wu Chen's mind.

This made him sigh silently in his heart.

He felt fine if the villagers were rude to him.

He wouldn't be imprisoned here foolishly, delaying the task time.

but……

That boy was really nice to him.

When he was so doubted by everyone, he also expressed their trust in him.

This kind of trust made him feel heavy.

If he ran away so suddenly, he would feel very sorry.

But, there is no way, people are in the rivers and lakes, and they can't help themselves.
