Chapter 16

At noon, it is the hottest time of the day. Smokey heat waves pour in from time to time, over and over.

Lin Ling jumped out from behind the rocks, stood in front of the little broken child, looked at the panic on his face that didn't have time to put it away, and was a little funny: "You've been with me all the way, can you be scared by me?"

The little broken child stepped back two steps and opened a safe distance from Lin Ling, but still did not say anything.

Lin Ling forced him to ask, "Do you want to see where I live? Then go back and inform your people to rob me of my things?"

The child shook his head.

"Do you think I will believe you if you say no?" Lin Ling approached the child two steps and looked at the child and asked him, "Tell me, what the hell do you mean? I kindly gave you two potatoes. Do you still want to go to my house to steal? You can't be so unkind, or you will be beaten.

The child's mouth is like a password lock, and he has to pry the lock if he wants him to talk.

"If you don't make it clear today, I will kill you as an espionage." Lin Ling pointed to the steep slope on the other side: "Do you know how many bones there are below? Zombies and people are buried below. If you don't say anything, I will send you to accompany them.

The child glanced at the bottom of the charred ditch and said, "You're lying."

The child hasn't drunk water these days. His lips are dry and his voice is hoarse, like a blunt instrument sliding over a stone, which is a little harsh.

Lin Ling didn't listen carefully: "What did you say?"

The child raised the volume: "You lied."

Lin Ling looked at the little broken child in surprise. He was quite bold and dared to refute her: "How can I know if I have lied before I haven't tried it?"

The child didn't know why, but said firmly, "You lie."

"I never lie." Lin Ling looked at the little shabby child and said, "Since you are not mute, tell me why you followed me?"

The child lowered his head again.

"Do you want to eat my potatoes again?" Lin Ling took out the remaining baked potato and handed it to the child. "I only have one left. Take it and go back."

The child took the potatoes and didn't eat them. He looked at Lin Ling quickly with depressed eyes, then lowered his head and whispered, "I can help you work."

"What?" Lin Ling was not sure if what she heard was what she thought, "You want to help me with the work?"

The child nodded hurriedly, "I will be very diligent."

The child lowered his head, and Lin Ling could only see a broken hat shaking in front of her eyes. "Children, what are you kid kidding?"

Let's not talk about the details of the child. Even if Lin Ling knows the root, she won't take it in. She can't support herself. How can she have time to control others?" Go back quickly, or your family will worry.

The child whispered, "I'm the only one."

" Just... You can't do it alone." One more mouth requires an extra pair of chopsticks. Now Lin Ling's conditions to support herself is terrible, and she also raises an unknown person. She is not sick: "You can go back as you come."

The little broken child looked up unwillingly and said to Lin Ling, "I'm an earth power."

Lin Ling was slightly surprised, earth?
