Chapter 1199
There are very few towns, not to mention a palm-sized place.

The population is also small.

However, due to the remote location, coupled with the strong wind and sand here, the crops are difficult to survive, and life is more difficult.

Those old people who are old and have nowhere to rely on have no choice but to live by begging.

Therefore, many beggars came out of the town.

But there were too many monks, and those who were able left the town, while those who were not able stayed behind.

The old beggar is the one who has no ability.

As for the idiot, to be honest, he has no relationship with the idiot, but they used to be neighbors, and he watched the idiot grow up.

A fool is born a fool, there is no cure.

When his mother was around, even though life was tight, he could live on. He raised the idiots for nothing and fat, and from time to time he subsidized and took care of the old beggars in the neighborhood who were lonely and childless all their lives.

Of course, at that time he could still make money, he was not a beggar.

Later, the idiot's mother passed away, and his father remarried.

It is said that if there is a stepmother, there will be a stepfather. The bride gave birth to a son in the second year of marriage. The most important thing is that this son is not stupid.

With a normal son inheriting the incense, this stupid son became that superfluous.

Afterwards, idiot's father earned some money as a peddler, and moved out of the town with his mother-in-law and young son. When he left, he left idiot behind.

The old beggar remembered the goodness of the idiot and his mother, so he took the idiot over to raise him. He was living a tight life, but with another mouth, his life can be imagined.

As the old beggar got older and couldn't work anymore, he and the idiot could no longer support him, so he took the idiot to beg.

This old beggar is also kind-hearted, no matter how hard life is, he never thought of throwing the idiot away to let him fend for himself, but the old and the young depend on each other for their lives, and this will last for many years.

Old beggars abound in the town. In the ruined temple outside the city, there is also the riverside, where beggars often go. Although the ruined temple is broken, it can shelter from the wind and rain. When there is no food, they rely on the river water to fill their stomachs.

Now that it is winter, the life of the people is even more difficult.

For two days in a row, the old beggar didn't get any food. The stomachs of the old and the young were like beating drums. They had no choice but to go to the river to drink water to satisfy their hunger.

It was at that time that they saw a group of outsiders.

As I said before, the town is small and the population is small, and almost every household looks familiar, so it is easy to tell whether this is an outsider or not.

The pedestrians were quite strange, about five or six men with a woman by their side.

The old beggar originally wanted to go up to beg for food, but he saw that the few people were not easy to provoke, so he gave up, and even hid away with the idiots, he didn't dare to look at them.

But the idiot is different, he lacks intelligence and is not as complicated as the old beggar thought. He glanced at the pedestrian several times at that time.

Ye Chaoge's face was a bit dirty at the time, after washing it with river water, it naturally revealed its true face. Although the idiot is stupid, he can tell the difference between beauty and ugliness. The woman is so beautiful, he was fascinated by it.

Perhaps his eyes were too straightforward, Ye Chaoge looked along and smiled kindly at him.

The idiot remembered it.

……

As the old beggar got older, he would chatter. Although the introductory words didn't match the introductory words, he could hear some useful clues by barely listening.

To sum it up, they did see a group of outsiders, five or six men, and a woman, and that woman was Ye Chaoge in the portrait.

"How many days ago?" Wei Yun was very anxious, but he also knew that the one who provided the clue was an old beggar who was old and a little confused, and the other was a fool who was born stupid.

His urgency, for them, will only make them fearful.

So, he endured it.

But even so, the old beggar was still trembling all over, looking terrified.

"Old man, do you still remember the day you met them?"

Compared to Wei Yun, Jiaorong's opening made the old beggar less afraid. He tilted his head and thought for a while before saying, "It seems to be five or six days ago."

It seems that five or six days ago...

Jiao Rong smiled, "Then do you still remember which direction they went?"

"This..." The old beggar shook his head, "I didn't pay attention."

At that time, he was so scared that no one was paying attention, so how could he pay attention to which direction the other party was walking in?

"I know!" The idiot who recognized Ye Chaoge and remembered it loudly said.

Jiaorong's eyes lit up, "Then tell me, which direction did they go from?"

The idiot raised his right hand, "It's the direction of this hand!"

Everyone: "If you say this, it means you didn't say it!"

"what?"

The idiot blinked, his face was ignorant and dull.

Seeing him like this, everyone couldn't help sighing.

I thought I had found a clue, but now it seems that this clue is useless at all.

The direction of the right hand is too general, and if a person is standing facing east, then the direction of the right hand is north, but if one is standing facing west, the direction of the right hand is south.

The same is true for facing north and south.

Therefore, the direction of the right hand mentioned by the idiot cannot be generalized at all.

After all, east, west, north, south, may be the right hand direction.

Everyone was a little discouraged.

Hongchen's eyes were red with anger, "What can I do about this, if you say it, it means you didn't say it."

He wanted to get angry at the idiot, but when he met those confused eyes, he couldn't get angry no matter how big he was, and what was wrong with him? Could it be his fault that he was born stupid?
"No, whoever said it means he didn't say it!" Wei Yun said in a deep voice.

Jiao Rong and the others looked over.

Wei Yun looked at the idiot, and her thin lips parted slightly: "Since you can't explain clearly, let him point it out to us!"

"That's right, he won't say it, he will always point it out." Nan Feng looked surprised, but His Highness still reacted quickly.

When it comes to it, you must act immediately.

"It's too late now, and it's dark outside. Even if we take it to the river, it's so dark, I'm afraid we won't be able to figure it out. Why don't we go after dawn. We just need to make preparations, and when the direction is determined, We won't come back, just go after it."

Jiaorong is the more sensible one among all of them.

I have been here for a few days, and I have probably learned about the surrounding conditions. There are sandy soil on all sides. It is said that it is difficult to get out every month after entering, and there is no human habitation inside.

No matter which direction the idiot will point in the end, they must go into the sand, and they must prepare enough dry food, otherwise, if Ye Chaoge fails to find it, they may be stuck in it.

No one refuted Jiao Rong's words this time, because the reality is indeed like this.

"I'm going to find the waiter in the shop to prepare water and dry food for us." Hong Chen took the initiative to ask Ying, and Nan Feng was eager to help.

As for the old beggars and idiots, let others take them down to find a room to rest.

Just wait until dawn to go to the river.
