Chapter 241: Under the Ancient Tree Outside the Courtyard
The flames burned the plains, the suffering people resisted stubbornly in the flames, and the small number of soldiers poured out.
In the quiet night, the sky suddenly lit up with a flickering fire, and the people were still in the windows, on the street, looking at the sky, thinking it was a gorgeous firework.
However, when the fireworks dispersed and the falling flames came to them, they realized that this was not a beautiful firework, but a death bloom.
The sky cleared, but the pungent smoke still shot straight into the sky. A young man and a woman strolled down the street, and in a house that had been burned down to reveal a two-story inner room, an elderly woman walked up the stairs with difficult steps.
The burned-out eaves became no longer sturdy, a precursor to the fall of the remaining beams.
The white-haired youth and the cherry-haired girl sensed that something was wrong, and immediately jumped up to the second floor, and there was a bang. Destroy the beams that are about to fall.
The two wanted to feel sorry for the old woman for such a loud noise. However, they found that the old woman did not react at all, and just stood there for a second, and then continued walking.
They found a cute teenager lying on the only neat bed in the entire room. With one arm open and the other under his head, he seemed to be sleeping comfortably.
"This stupid boy can still sleep so soundly," the white-haired young man smiled wryly.
"No, that kid ......"
The Sakura-haired girl looked stupidly at the scene in front of her, and then lowered her head unbearably. The young man looked ahead as the girl spoke, and the old man gently pushed the sleeping boy and called his name, but there was no answer. Only then did I know that he was dead.
The few pedestrians on the street walked by alone, crying and telling words that they had not yet had time to tell. The army and the nobility of the towns, the best doctors, were running on the roads and in the courtyards of the houses.
There was complexity in the expressions of the young man and woman. The girl's heart was in pain, and she clutched the sharp pain in her chest and walked into the alley that no one cared about. But what appeared before their eyes was the miserable condition of those poor little creatures.
To alleviate her pain, he took her back to the tranquil teahouse, which was still neat and perfect and different from the outside.
"Ah, I didn't expect you to be so serious, it's really a great help to our organization" An uncle in red walked over, patted the white-haired young man on the shoulder like a sturdy old friend, and praised loudly.
"Idiot! Get out of here! There are not enough people, and they are still chatting!" The red-clothed uncle who had been negotiating with Liu Xiaoming and them called the familiar uncle away.
"Let them stay for a while"
This time, there were only two people left in the teahouse, and all five members of the red-clothed uncle group were dispatched, this time it was a bumper harvest, and the town fell into a disaster, perhaps many people already knew that this was a natural disaster brought by the divine realm, and the Red Night Demon Organization only needed to shake them a little, and it would be done.
In the teahouse, the two were silent.
"You, are you okay?" Liu Xiaoming asked with a smile, perhaps in order to give the girl a better sense of security, he deliberately pulled the chair closer to the girl's position.
"What do you think of me?"
"You look exactly like I did now, but innocent people were killed by yourself, and your heart is full of guilt. However, this is the path we choose, and we may only get the final answer if we reach the end.
There is a God and God in the true sense of the word. I believe that as soon as we reach that state and know everything, I will do my best to compensate those who have lost their happiness because of me, so I will not give up on this path, I will definitely reach the end."
The boy's eyes revealed a determined look, and the girl couldn't help but be infected by this atmosphere, and smiled helplessly.
"So, can you tell me about your current road plan?"
"Complete the Demon Realm cultivation as soon as possible and look for Ling Yin. At present, the ultimate goal is to avenge Sister Xi and the uncles, and Vilia should have shown you the battle, the bastard god who used thunder and lightning was the culprit. Although it is said that it is not too late for a gentleman to take revenge for ten years, but the killing intent in my heart for him can't endure for so long, it only takes two years, and I will definitely kill him. ”
"Well, in order to be able to unify the continent, the king secretly united the divine realm. My father did everything he could to obstruct but was placed under house arrest, and entrusted us with the task of the Double Dragon Crystal, fearing that we would rebel in the middle of the process, and sent bounty hunters to stop us. In the end, our team was almost wiped out, and my father and the bastards killed them. Sooner or later, I'll pay them back. ”
Staring at Du Xiaoxiao's serious and determined look, Liu Xiaoming also relieved his heart and stretched out his hand to the top of the girl's head. And the girl seemed to notice this, and deliberately continued to pose as if she didn't know, waiting for the boy's caresse.
As a result, smack!
"Ahh
Du Xiaoxiao stroked the top of his head aggrievedly, he never thought that this stupid person in front of him would give him a hand knife.
"Hahaha, how is it, are you in a mood now?"
"Hmm"
"We're Avengers now, and we don't have to think about anything else. But even so, don't give up on justice and kindness in your heart. In the disaster of your own making, you can save as much as you can......"
Liu Xiaoming said, stood up from his seat, stretched out his right hand like a gentleman, the girl's heart re-strengthened her will, and stretched out her hand to respond to the boy's invitation.
"Let's go, let's go see the two protagonists of yesterday"
- A mournful tune resounded in the tattered Zephyr mansion burned by the flames. People in black dresses lined up to enter. More than twenty warriors in purple and black armor were neatly dressed and lined up to protect the entire courtyard.
"What happened here, how could that girl die?" Liu Xiaoming couldn't believe what was happening here, he clearly remembered that when he left, the place was still neat and perfect, and the girl just passed out.
Du Xiaoxiao walked to the wall and felt the spiritual power here. When he suddenly opened his eyes, his face became a little embarrassed.
"It seems to be my fault. The flames in the circle didn't completely disappear, it ......"
"I see. Let's go up there and see what's going on inside."
In order to avoid Du Xiaoxiao's mood being depressed again, he chose to divert the topic.
The two of them came to the branches of the ancient tree and watched everything below. Here, Sersi's funeral rites are performed. And the most conspicuous in the first row is the reckless teenager.
He was covered in bandages and knelt in front of the portrait of the girl. The eyes have lost their sparkle.
"Heh, it seems that the girl chose to sacrifice herself, but it's okay, this is exactly what I want," Liu Xiaoming said, and his body was about to jump off the branch.
"What are you going to do?"
"Go and win over the first mercenary of our Red Night Demon Organization," Liu Xiaoming said, changing into the same outfit as the red-clothed uncle he got from his waist bag. I saw him put it on his body, hiding his spiritual power and quietly came behind the charred wooden stake.
He tried to wave at Di Yao's side, but found that the guy didn't pay attention to it at all.
After ten minutes of struggle, Liu Xiaoming gave up completely. He unleashed his faint spiritual power, and in an instant, Di Yao's eyes were as sharp as a falcon.
Liu Xiaoming smiled bitterly and poked his head out from under the stump. A piece of crystal, which had been prepared a long time ago, shook it in Di Yao's sight, and then placed it on the ground. He retreated back to the stump and snuck away.
"You, what have you done?" Du Xiaoxiao asked curiously.
"You'll find out at night"
On the way to the funeral, Di Yao found an opportunity and quickly ran under the stump where the man in red was hiding.
"What is this?" the boy looked curiously at the crystallization on the ground, only to see a small note tied to it. He unfolded the note and looked at its contents in deep thought.
