Ten Thousand Soul Banner: Deceased, do you have any unfulfilled wishes? Chapter 946 - 942: Chance Encounter

Tang Tang looked at the wheat fields outside the window, her eyes brightened, and she pointed her little finger at the farrs working in the distance.

"Wow~"

Shen Siyuan followed the direction she pointed, and saw several farrs wearing straw hats, bending over to weed in the wheat fields, their movents skillful and steady.

"They are weeding the wheat so the wheat can grow stronger," Shen Siyuan gently explained.

As the car approached Yuncheng, the sun began to set in the west, and the clouds at the edge of the sky were tinted a warm orange-red.

On the distant horizon, you could vaguely see the outline of the Yellow River, like a dark ribbon stretched across the heavens and earth.

The afterglow of the sunset sprinkled on the river, making that "ribbon" shimr with a golden hue, so beautiful that it was impossible to look away.

"Wow, such a big river."

Duoduo was filled with awe, having never seen such a large river before.

"There must be Sha Monk in there."

Dou Dou pressed her little head against the car window glass, also with a face full of awe.

"Sha Monk’s place is Flowing Sand River, this is the Yellow River, they’re not the sa place," Xiao Yue said.

"Where is Flowing Sand River, I want to see it," Dou Dou curiously asked.

Xiao Yue was montarily speechless, she didn’t know exactly where Flowing Sand River was either.

Ruan Hongzhuang slowed down the car so everyone could see more clearly: "After crossing the Yellow River, just a little further and we’ll be in Shanxi territory. Xijing is just west of the Yellow River, tonight we’ll find a place to rest, and tomorrow we’ll enter Xijing City."​

The sun gradually sank below the horizon, the orange-red sky slowly turned deep purple, and nightfall began to descend.

Ruan Hongzhuang looked at the navigation and found that not far ahead there was a village nad West Village, so she proposed.

"There’s a village ahead, let’s camp near the village, it’ll be more convenient at night."

The car exited the highway and drove towards the village along a country road.

Tall poplar trees were planted along the roadside, their leaves rustling in the evening breeze, as if welcoming their arrival.

In the distance, the village lights were starting to dot the landscape, wisps of smoke rose up, mixed with the aroma of dinner, floating in the air, exceptionally cozy.​

Shen Siyuan stopped the car and got out to check the surroundings.

On the outskirts of the village, there was an open field, with a nearby clear stream, which was very suitable for camping.

"Let’s do it here, there’s water and it’s quiet," Shen Siyuan said as he turned back to the others.

Tang Tang was the first to jump out of the car, pulling Mao Sani’s hand, curiously sizing up the distant village.

From the village ca a few dog barks and the sound of villagers talking, though faint, it was full of the strong atmosphere of life.

Although it’s a rural area, there’s a concrete road that is both smooth and wide.

The group began to busy themselves.

Shen Siyuan took out the spaceship, while Ruan Hongzhuang, Taozi, and Mao Sani began to prepare lunch.

Xiao Yue took Tang Tang, Dou Dou, Duoduo, and Little Grey for a walk nearby to familiarize themselves with the environnt.

Everyone only had a light lunch, but dinner was quite sumptuous, with chicken, duck, fish, and at all available.

In addition, there was freshly roasted duck and a steaming hot lamb pot.

Of course, these were placed in the space by Shen Siyuan; whatever went in ca out just the sa.

As the flas stir-fried, the aroma spread around, attracting Dou Dou and others who were originally playing nearby, all gathering at the long table, waiting for the al.

"Such a big feast," Dou Dou said in amazent at the full table of food.

"You should say it’s sumptuous," Taozi corrected.

"Alright, hurry up and eat, don’t wait for the food to get cold."

As the sun set, the temperature slowly dropped as well.

Actually, without saying anything, Tang Tang had already started eating, her little head buried in the large bowl, becoming a dedicated eater.

"Huh?"

It was at this ti that Xiao Yue suddenly turned her gaze towards the direction of the road.

Shen Siyuan was seated opposite her, facing away from the road, so seeing Xiao Yue’s surprised look, he also turned around to look.

He saw a little girl, about four or five years old, wearing a short-sleeved shirt and shorts, standing at the roadside, dirty and gnawing on her fingers, shyly looking at them, her eyes full of curiosity, but also a longing for food.

Ruan Hongzhuang noticed this as well, gave Shen Siyuan a glance, and then spoke: "Do you want to co over and eat with us?"

The little girl nodded without hesitation but remained standing still.

"Co over," Dou Dou beckoned with her little hand.

Only then did the little girl shyly walk over.

Taozi imdiately got up and brought her tableware.

The little girl took the bowl and chopsticks from Taozi, but didn’t thank her, instead, she stared straight at the delicacies on the table.

Shen Siyuan placed so roasted duck pieces and so lamb in her bowl.

Then softly said: "Eat up."

Upon hearing him, the little girl quickly began to devour the contents of her bowl.

"Slow down, there’s plenty more," Ruan Hongzhuang said.

Xiao Yue and the others looked curiously at the little girl in front of them, but Tang Tang continued to eat intently.

However, the little girl’s appearance reminded Shen Siyuan of Lin Qiuxue; she was just as he first saw her.

Tangled hair, left unkempt for a long ti, wearing ill-fitting clothes that were equally dirty.

Fortunately, she later t Shen Siyuan, who arranged for her to stay at Rainbow House, and now she finally had a stable place to live.

This little girl is from the nearby village?

Shen Siyuan was about to ask, but saw the little girl stop her chopsticks, swallowing the last bite, and curiously asked: "Are you going to take care of ? Would you mind taking care of ?"

Everyone was stunned by her words.

Seeing no one speak, the little girl did not seem disappointed, quietly mumbling: "The food was delicious."

Then continued to bury her head in her al.

"Is she an orphan?" Taozi whispered.

"Not sure, we can ask in the village later," Shen Siyuan said.

But clearly, soone was more anxious and more straightforward.

Dou Dou directly asked: "Where are your parents?"

The little girl raised her head in confusion at the question, then seed to rember sothing, shook her head, and didn’t speak, continuing to eat.

"You don’t have parents?" Dou Dou continued to ask.

"Shut up, eat your food," Xiao Yue said.

Dou Dou might be asking unintentionally, but she might hit the truth, Xiao Yue worried the girl might feel sad, but she showed little reaction.

At this mont, Shen Siyuan had a thought, turned to look at the end of the cent road, and saw a woman riding an electric bike returning to the village, so he put down his cutlery and walked over.

When the woman passed by, Shen Siyuan spoke to her.

"Hello, sorry to disturb you," Shen Siyuan said.

Seeing Shen Siyuan’s extraordinary deanor and the luxurious RV, the woman didn’t hesitate and stopped her electric bike.

"I want to ask, is that little girl from a nearby village?" Shen Siyuan asked.

The woman followed Shen Siyuan’s finger and glanced, then paused for a mont before saying: "She’s from our village, sorry for intruding on your al."

"No... that’s not what I ant, I just wanted to ask, is she an orphan? She seems unattended," Shen Siyuan said.

The middle-aged woman sighed, a trace of pity in her eyes.

"She’s not an orphan, she has a grandfather and a father, but her father is no good..."

Talking about the girl’s father, the middle-aged woman’s tone unconsciously carried a hint of anger.
