Chapter 1211: Meeting an Old Man in the Forest

Xiao Tian instantly stopped his footsteps.

‘Who is he? Does he want to kill us too?’

He was startled.

He thought he would not meet anyone because they were in the forest, but he was wrong.

He was utterly wrong because an old man about sixty years old was standing right in front of him.

The old man had silver hair and eyes. Even though he was already sixty years old, his body was still full of vigor like young people.

Like Xiao Tian, Crystal was also surprised.

‘Who is he?’

She had the same question as Xiao Tian.

“Who are you? What are you doing here?” even though the old man was startled, he did not show it on his face and behaved normally.

He had been living in the forest for about ten years and had never met anyone before. That was why he was surprised when he saw Xiao Tian and Crystal.

“I’m sorry, elder. We are just pa.s.sing by. Let’s go, Crystal.” Xiao Tian was relieved after hearing the old man’s questions because with this, he knew that the old man was not his enemy.

If the old man were their enemy, he would have attacked them, but he did not do that; instead, he threw two questions to them.

‘Is he living here?’

Xiao Tian still found it hard to believe because they were deep in the forest.

The old man did not say anything and only stared at Xiao Tian and Crystal.

‘Why is he carrying her? Is she injured? And what are they doing in the forest?’

The old man s.h.i.+fted his gaze to the forest after looking at Xiao Tian and Crystal for a few seconds.

Xiao Tian walked while paying attention to his surroundings.

‘We have to find a place to stay.’

It was almost nighttime, so they had to find a place to sleep.

If they had bad luck earlier, they had good luck this time because they found a cave not long after that.

The cave was located close to the river. Xiao Tian immediately looked for tree branches and leaves for a bed.

—–

Xiao Tian and Crystal were currently in the cave. There was a bonfire in front of them because Xiao Tian made a bonfire earlier.

*Kriukk…

Xiao Tian and Crystal were starving, but they could not look for food because it was already dark.

*Kriuk…

Their stomachs were growling again, giving a sign that they were hungry.

“Hehe.” Xiao Tian and Crystal laughed together.

“Let’s go to sleep so that we don’t feel hungry.” Xiao Tian uttered.

Sleeping could help them forget their hunger. Of course, it was only temporary because they would feel hungry again after waking up.

But it was better to sleep earlier because they could look for food after waking up tomorrow.

“Un.” Crystal agreed with Xiao Tian’s idea.

Xiao Tian and Crystal immediately slept.

—–

The following morning, Xiao Tian and Crystal woke up at 06:00 am. Even though it was still 06:00 am, the sun was already up.

Xiao Tian turned his head to look at Crystal before speaking, “Crystal, let’s find food now.”

“Are you going to carry me again?” Crystal knew that Xiao Tian was starving, so he did not have a lot of stamina.

Carrying her while looking for food would consume a lot of stamina, so Crystal suddenly felt like she was a burden now.

“What are you thinking about? I’m strong, you know?” of course, Xiao Tian knew what she had in mind.

He did not want something bad to happen to her again, and he had promised to protect her, so he would not leave her alone.

Crystal was touched by his words and actions.

‘Xiao Tian…’

She felt lucky to have a friend like Xiao Tian.

Xiao Tian then walked out of the cave while carrying Crystal on his back. “We can’t catch fish in that river and we also can’t drink it because the water is dirty.”

Xiao Tian stopped when he was in front of the river. The color of the water was dark, so it was impossible to catch some fish in the river.

“Let’s look for fruit around the cave.” Crystal uttered, “I hope we can find some fruit later.”

“Alright.” Xiao Tian began to walk again.

At the same time, the old man, who met Xiao Tian and Crystal yesterday, was looking at them.

‘Aren’t they the young people from yesterday? Did they stay in that cave last night?’

The old man knew that there was a cave not far from the river because he had been living around that area for ten years.

‘Are they looking for food? And that young man, he is carrying the young woman again.’

The old man was amazed by Xiao Tian’s actions.

Xiao Tian also carried Crystal on his back when they met yesterday, and he also carried her today.

At this moment, the old man was sure that Xiao Tian had a close relations.h.i.+p with Crystal because Xiao Tian kept taking care of her.

In the forest where they could lose their lives anytime and anywhere, Xiao Tian kept taking care of Crystal.

Carrying people in the forest was quite dangerous because they could not run fast when some wild animals appeared in front of them.

Wild animals were one of the reasons why people would show their true color when they were in the forest because they could lose their lives anytime.

Even though the old man was touched by Xiao Tian’s actions, he had no intention of helping them.

After looking at Xiao Tian and Crystal for several seconds, the old man left.

Unlike yesterday where they could find fruit easily, Xiao Tian and Crystal could not find any edible fruit even after looking for a few hours.

They began to feel dizzy because they had not eaten anything since yesterday, especially Xiao Tian, who kept carrying Crystal.

Of course, Xiao Tian did not give up and believed that they would find edible fruit later. He also did not show his tiredness because he did not want Crystal to worry.

*One hour…two hours…three hours…

It had been more than three hours since Xiao Tian and Crystal left the cave, but they still had not found any edible fruit or anything that could be eaten.

‘I’m starting to feel dizzy. This is dangerous.’

Xiao Tian had carried Crystal since yesterday and fought many people, so his body had reached its limit.

When Crystal saw Xiao Tian shaking his head frequently, she knew his body had turned frail.

“Xiao Tian, let’s rest now.” She did not want Xiao Tian to faint because it would put them in danger later.

She was also worried about his condition if they kept looking for food because she knew his condition.

“Alright.” Xiao Tian put Crystal down because he only had a little stamina left.

‘Why are we so unlucky today?’

Usually, it was not hard for them to find some fruit, but today was different.

They had searched for food for more than three hours, but they could not find any edible fruit or anything edible.

“Huft…” Xiao Tian and Crystal sat on the ground with their backs leaning against a big tree.
