Black street was one of the most dim and disorderly areas in the Spring City.
Most of the people living there were the people at the bottom of this bustling fortress. They had no powerful abilities and no special ans of earning a living. So were ordinary people without any abilities. Only the most dirty and tiring work of the whole town could be done, and they could barely survive.
Xiao Chai had lived in this black street since he was a child. He didnt rember who his parents were and had no na. Because he was used to petty thieves and was often chased and beaten by people on the street, he got a random na called Xiao Chai.(chase)
The seven or eight year old boy squatted across from Lai Lao Sans grocery store and drooled at the glass jar filled with colorful candy at the door of the store. The thick glass jar was made of wire hoops and locked with a large brass lock, indicating that the jar contained golden and precious food that could not easily be touched.
He hadnt tasted this kind of sweet food ever since he was small. At this mont, Xiao Chai couldnt help but think of the new friend he t a few days ago. The mans hand was broken and he laid alone in the small dark room.
So pitiful.
But soone bought candies for him.
If only soone was willing to buy candies for him to eat, he swallowed his saliva.
That friend was so stingy that he didnt even give one to him. But besides that, he could be regarded as a good friend. At least he listened to him quietly, unlike others who scolded or despised him. It was a pity that when he went there again, that friend no longer lived in that room. He didnt know where he went.
Xiao Chai went back to his residence, in a pile of waste shacks. His house looked a bit weird. If looked carefully, one could see that the little tent squeezed in the corner was a low-level demon. The ribs were used as a bracket to piece together various broken demon body fragnts, and there was an appliance that could barely have the function of locking the door.
Five years ago, a huge green moon appeared inexplicably in the sky, and the demons fell. Since the advent of the demons, the ecological environnt on the planet has changed drastically. More than two-thirds of human beings had beco magical creatures. Human civilization had subverted for many years and entered the era of wasteland.
With the changes of the years, the material left over from the golden age was gradually scarce, and humans had begun to learn to extract the materials needed for life in a new ecological environnt. A large number of sturdy or special-purpose demon bodies were fully utilized by humans in all aspects of battle and life. Although there were a large number of demons, and there were also a large number of professional demon hunters who frequently engaged with demons, this precious material that required bloody battles was not easy to find in places like the black street.
Xiao Chai got so many demons waste that no one else could use, and even put them together into a relatively sturdy house. In the golden age, children as old as him played with building blocks. However, in just five years, the strong adaptability of human beings manifested itself in this child. Not only a child less than ten years old was able to survive in such a harsh environnt, but even did his best to improve his living environnt.
Xiao Chai opened the curtain made of rags. In the narrow space, except for a small piece of piled rags that was used to sleep, the rest of the place was piled up ssily with waste. There was almost no place to sit. From the scraps of various low-level demons that have been transford, it could be seen that this child had a strong practical ability and had the ability to lt demons. A dilapidated refrigerator that had been completely rusted was his cabinet filled with various treasures he had collected. For example, so toy robots with boxes containing marbles and two broken legs.
That day, beside the rusty remote control car, there was a transparent plastic bag with its mouth open, and a few colorful candies rolled out.
Xiao Chai grabbed this beautifully packed bag in disbelief. Each candy in the bag was crystal clear and bright, like a colorful gemstone carefully crafted. The little boy twisted one, carefully extended his tongue and licked it. A sweet taste spread in his mouth.
He opened the door inexplicably and looked out.
Outside the house was still the litter with mosquitoes, and the dim street. Zhang Dafa from the neighbor ca out with the toilet, poured a bucket of dirt directly into the ditch not far away, and spit in his direction.
