The sky outside the car window was still gloomy. There were a few old trees lying on the side of the road, and weeds were growing on the edge of the field. 

A few dead leaves hang on the branches, and they cannot fall off in the cold wind.

A dilapidated van was driving on this dusty dirt road, and the wipers were crooked and fell, it was unknown if they could still be used;

But such a broken car that looked like it was about to break down also attracted the children who were walking on the road with sheep to look back frequently, eyes full of novelty.

The window was only opened a little, the big dark hand stretched out the cigarette and flicked it a few times.

In the car, someone's mobile phone rang.

The man glanced at it, turned his head again, took a sharp breath and slowly exhaled a smoke ring. After the phone rang a few times, he picked it up and connected.

He held a cigarette in one hand and put his phone to his ear in the other. only heard the person over there asking: "Why did it take so long to answer the phone?! Okay, I'm not talking nonsense with you, I ask you, have the goods arrived?"

Hearing the anxious voice over there, the man let out a mouthful Rhubarb teeth, his face full of impatience.

"I said you are in a hurry! The limelight has been tight recently, so you have to be careful in everything you do. If something goes wrong, you will take care of it for me?!" The man spoke with a foreign accent, and his voice came out along outside the car window.

The van was driving, and the wheels of the car were picking up dust. Before the people on the roadside could hear it, they passed by.

"Where's the bastard! almost bumped into me and didn't see it!" The passerby who was almost hit scolded the van going away. Seeing that the car hadn't stopped, he spit in that direction again, "Bah!" He spit a few times, and said to himself unhappily, "You son of a bitch! Maybe one day you'll be hit and killed when you go out!"

In the van, the two men looked painless and didn't feel any guilt about nearly hitting someone.

"The country bumpkin is a big deal!"

Hearing the voice on the phone, the man picked it up again and yelled at the other end, "didn't I tell you! Wait a little, we're already on our way, the goods will arrive soon!"

"Missed?"

The man took a breath of cigarette slowly, and leaned back on the seat with a look of enjoyment on his face. He said to the mobile phone: "Joke! You go out and ask, I have been in business for so many years and have never missed a deal!" 

After hanging up the phone, the man turned his head and said to the driver: "I said, The phone has been called several times, why can't he still get it! Hurry up, hurry up!"

The thin man sitting in the driver's seat smiled flatteringly: "Brother Huang, we have been here several times, you know. Yes, the road is like this in this poor and lonely place. This is already the fastest!" The dirt road was difficult for the car to run and it was swaying and stumbling all the way.

The man scolded angrily and said, "When this order is finished, I will get a new car!"

"Wow--" A baby's cry came from the direction of the back seat.

The man frowned, and the scar at the corner of his eye added a bit of ferocity. He turned his head angrily, looked at the baby lying in a half-used handbag, and scolded, "Why are you crying! going to cry for nothing!"

He turned his head to the woman sat beside him said, "Give her some more medicine and tell her to be quiet!"

Hearing the man's words, the woman reluctantly pulled the handbag aside and glanced at the baby girl inside.

The face of the baby girl who was only a few months old was flushed, obviously not a normal face. The woman's heart was not good, so she quickly reached out and touched it, sure enough, the temperature on her skin was scorching hot.

"What's the matter, Sister Juan!" The man in the driver's seat noticed the woman's ugly face in the rearview mirror of the car.

The middle-aged man sitting next to him also frowned and turned his head to look over. The woman said to them with a bad face: "This baby girl has a fever, I'm afraid the situation is not good..."

Hearing this, the man immediately turned his head and looked at the back seat. At this time, the baby's cry has become weaker and weaker, as if about to die.

"Damn it!" 

Seeing that the business was bad, the man was so angry that he raised his hand and slapped the woman in the face.

"Didn't I tell you to take a good look at it?!"

"This is a waste of money!" The car stopped, and the man in the driver's seat looked carefully at the man beside him and asked, "Brother Huang, what should we do now? Go to the hospital?"

The man called Brother Huang got out of the car, took his last puff and threw the cigarette butt in his hand to the ground, smashed it hard. He shouted at the person next to him: "Isn't it a panic when I burn too much money! Do you still need me to teach you?! Don't hurry up and throw away the money-losing goods in the car!"

After venting his anger, Huang My brother finally calmed down. Thinking about the money given by the man in the suit before, fortunately, this trip is not a loss, just a small profit. He raised his head and glanced at the woman in the back seat of the car who was bruised by his beating. 

He turned his head again, looked at the thin man who was driving, and said, "Xiao Zhao, go and find a place to deal with the lost money. We'll wait for you here."

"Okay, Brother Huang!" The man opened the back door of the car, took the handbag containing the baby girl and glanced around.

The cold wind was blowing, and he couldn't help but fight the cold. After a few steps ahead, he arrived at the town. The man didn't want to run away, he saw a rubbish pile next to him, put down the bag in his hand and left.

He didn't dare to look back all the way, and trotted back into the car.

Suddenly, remembered in my mind that I heard from a goddess in the countryside before that dead baby was the most resentful and the least safe.

He didn't do this immoral thing with Brother Huang for a long time. He wanted to make money, but he was also afraid of the retribution of ghosts and gods. I thought to myself, don't blame me, if you become a ghost, don't come back to me.

Brother Huang, who was sitting in the car, saw him like this, and said with a sneer, "You still want to make a fortune with your courage! What are you afraid of, I have worked for so many years, and haven't seen any retribution from thunder!"

Suddenly,

"Boom!" There was a thunder in the sky.

The man with a guilty conscience suddenly buried his head in the steering wheel and shouted, "Don't look for me! It's none of my business, don't come to me!"

Brother Huang, who was sitting on the side, saw this, raised his hand and slapped it, scolded angrily: "The cowardly grandson of the turtle, he was so scared that he was urinating at the slightest movement, so why don't you hurry up and drive!"

"Crack!" thunder fell

It just happened to hit a passing van.

"Ah!!!" The body of the tree was on fire, the body leaked oil, and the screams of men and women were quickly swallowed up in a sea of ​​fire.

This small place is remote, and there are not many people on the road on weekdays. No one noticed until the fire was full of black smoke.

At this point, the entire van, including the men and women inside, had all been burned to coke.

•••

the handbag next to the garbage heap moved.

The baby inside opened her eyes slowly, blurry.

"Ah?"

Noticing her own voice, little hands and feet moved. Is this the time when she can't speak?

Has she become a baby?

System: 【 It looks like this. 】

Paipai said with an expressionless face: 【You always appear like this all of a sudden. Can you say hello in advance before coming out next time? 】

System: 【Pro, no. 】


System: 【This will give you a sense of surprise. 】

PeiPei: 【...】

System: 【Did you miss me? 】

PeiPei: 【Hmph, I don't want to. 】

The little baby pursed her lips angrily, humming. After a while, She got used to current body, and Peipei opened her eyes again.

This time, the eyes are no longer blurry and can see clearly.

It's just, the sky...

how can I only see a gap.

where is she?

The five senses returned, and a strong sour smell came from the nose. The little baby blinked a few times, dazed.

Accompanying: 【 Should... it's not what I thought, right? 】

System: 【Actually, it is what you think. 】

It saw that the little baby's brows were getting tighter and tighter, and the little mouth was getting more and more flat.

The system mercilessly pointed out the cub cub's current situation: 【Child, you are lying in the trash now...】

"Ah ah-" The baby's cry was loud.

Thinking that this blow was not enough, the system continued: 【 If you continue to lie here, it will only take one night, and you will have to reincarnate again. 】

【Accurately speaking, it should be that you have less than four hours and thirty minutes left in your life now. By the way, I forgot to tell you,】

The system kept muttering:

【The timing rule in this world is that one hour represents one sichen (two hours). Of course, there are many differences. For example, the environmental pollution in this world is relatively serious, and the sky is not as blue as in the previous worlds; the air here is not as clean as the air in the previous world; the plants here are not... Of course, time is passing, society developing, there is no way to do this, and the difference between the ancient world and the modern world is still very large. However, none of this can be experienced until you successfully survive first. So...】

Zai Zai clenched her small fists and said angrily: 【There is no end to it! Let's get to the point first! 】

The system put away the long speech that was going to bring the little brat to know the new world. Finally, he said solemnly:

【So...】

【I have no choice. Whether you can survive or not depends on your own luck. After all, you know that this system can only provide you with some informational assistance, as for the rest...】

The system was silent for a long time before opening the mouth and said: 【I am incompetent. 】

•••

Time passed minute by minute, the sky was getting darker and darker.

The cub blinked a few times and looked at the sky above her head.

【It's so dark, is it going to rain soon? 】

Blessings come unparalleled, and misfortunes do not come singly. the cloudy sky began to drizzle lightly.

People who pass by this garbage dump all cover their noses and hide away, no one will approach at all.

The rainwater flowed in through the gaps in the handbag, and the thin little clothes were wet, clinging to the baby's body.

The cub felt the scalding heat on her body. even in the cold rain, it showed no sign of abating, and her head began to feel dizzy.

Her body is getting weaker and weaker.

Finally, someone walked in.

The tall and thin young man did not hold an umbrella, looking at the appearance he is in twenties, wearing a gray overalls, the clothes that were too wide obviously did not fit, as if they were picked up by others.

There was a dead silence in his eyes, no waves, and no superfluous expressions on his face.

Lin Fei was the last to leave as usual after finishing his odd jobs at the brick kiln in the town.

He had become accustomed to the foreman's intentional overtime processing and he didn't say much. Follow this road and he can go back to where he lives now.

However, when passing the garbage dump, he heard the cry of a baby.

This town is not big, and people in the town are used to throwing their garbage here. Over time, this place has become a recognized garbage dump, and people will only see people landfill and incinerate once every half a month.

How come there are babies crying in this place?

He didn't want to care, but after listening to the increasingly weak voice, Lin Fei still didn't stop his steps and walked over.

The smell of garbage dumps soaked in rain is even more foul.

Lin Fei saw the half-old handbag at a glance. The baby's cry came from there, and it was still moving. Opening the unsealed zipper, he saw the little baby lying inside.

A pair of big black eyes looked at him, clean and clear.

Lin Fei looked at his face reflected in her innocent eyes.

He reached out and took the baby out of the bag. Feeling the hot temperature in his arms, he took off his coat, wrapped the baby and ran to the only clinic in town.

In front of the glass counter, a man in a white coat looked out lazily.

He was thinking about the rain, or would close the door early today and go home, and he saw people running in the rain.

"What's the disease? An injection or an infusion?"

Lin Fei showed the hot little face of the wrapped baby in his arms. The man glanced at it and asked him to put the baby on the hospital bed and get the stethoscope.

After the inspection, he directly said to Lin Fei: "I'm not lying to you, this little baby is burning badly, and everyone in town knows that I have used all the medicines that can be used anyway, so I can't promise you it can be saved. But the money for the medicine is not cheap, you still have to pay it."

Lin Fei did not hesitate, and took out all the wages he had just received today from his pocket. In a dumb voice, "I'll give it all to you."

The man said strangely, "Where did you pick up this child? Didn't your parents all die? I haven't heard anyone say that you still have relatives?"

Lin Fei sipped his mouth tightly. silent.

The man counted the money in his hand, shook his head again and said, "Your money is not enough, it is not worth my money for the medicine. Let me tell you, these medicines were obtained from the city after a lot of hard work, old and expensive. Forget it, seeing that you can't spend much more, I will do a good deed that day, let you owe it first, and remember to make up the money for the medicine later."

"Okay. "Lin Fei didn't refute him.

Whether these medicines work, he doesn't know. On weekdays, no one comes here to see a doctor. When someone got sick, they all boiled and drank the medicinal materials from the mountains. It was cheap, not money.

In the past, he could endure it when he was sick. But now, he had no choice and dared not gamble.
