Chapter 119: The Lame Boy
Lu Cheng shrank his body and wrapped the torn cotton jacket on his body a little tighter.
The cold in the mountains in the early morning did not bring him any warmth, but he had to go into the mountains early in the morning, and there was no food left at home.
He took a piece of dry food from his bosom, which was a little hard, then crouched down and dipped it in the stream, then swallowed it with difficulty. His head was a little itchy, he scratched it, he felt the clump of hair, he wet his hands and rubbed it, which was much more pleasing to the eye.
This creek is the point of passage of Wangjiatun into the mountain, the water quality is very good, Lu Chen will drink water here to freshen up when he passes by.
When he had finished his dry food, he straightened up and continued his departure.
When he crouched down, he couldn't see anything unusual, but when he stood up and walked a few steps, it was obvious that something was wrong with him - his leg was lame.
His leg wasn't born lame. When I was a child, I climbed the woods to dig birds' eggs, accidentally fell down and broke my leg, my family was poor, and I had no money for medical treatment, so my father had to cut two boards to fix it.
The broken bones healed without reconnection, so he became lame.
He searched earnestly to see where there were suitable wild vegetables that would not be astringent.
He didn't expect much to catch some pheasants and hares, and he couldn't keep up with that speed on his legs.
"Mushrooms!" Soon, Lu Chengcheng had a harvest, in fact, living in the mountains, although life is a little harder, as long as there are no natural disasters**, in fact, he will not die of hunger.
He was in the midst of the joy of harvest, when there was a sudden big movement in front of him.
Dangerous! It's a big thing!
Lu Cheng's first reaction was to escape, and his second reaction was to lie down and pretend to be dead, trying to escape his life.
Lin Tianze pushed aside the bushes and looked at the young man lying on the ground pretending to be dead.
It's a little clever.
He thought that he still needed to go into the tun to ask where he lived, but he didn't expect to meet him just after entering Wangjiatun along this path.
This should be fate.
Although he is now a thirteen or fourteen-year-old boy, Lin Tianze can still find familiar traces on his immature face.
Lin Tianze looked carefully, as Lin Tianze's most loyal and capable subordinate, his miserable appearance in his youth was quite unexpected.
"Hey, wake up!" Lin Tianze's voice carried a hint of a smile.
Lu Cheng rolled over and quickly rolled and then stood up, he looked at Lin Tianze vigilantly.
Wangjiatun is very remote, basically few outsiders come, not to mention that it takes more than three hours to walk on the rugged mountain road, even the rickety chain bridge ordinary people may not have the courage to try.
"Who are you?" Lu Cheng asked in a deep voice, he was now feeling palpitations, it was all caused by the person in front of him, and he thought there were some big animals.
"I'm from a foreign adventure, meet for the first time, and give you a greeting gift!" Lin Tianze handed over the dead pheasant in his hand.
"When I came to explore, I was really kicked in the head by a donkey." Lu Cheng sneered, didn't take the pheasant, turned around and was about to leave, he didn't want to stay with this person with a problem with his head, and he was still exploring, this place.
It's still the same arrogant, but the attitude is too different.
I remember that his trust in him at that time was unconditional.
Lin Tianze couldn't help but think of a scene twenty years later. This was a conversation after Lu Cheng saw Ling Ling insulting Lin Tianze and wanted to take action, but was stopped by Lin Tianze.
"Brother Tianze, I won't kill her." Lu Cheng looked at Lin Tianze's face, and cautiously tried it.
Lin Tianze shook his head, calm and paranoid people are always too difficult, and said word by word: "I mean you are not allowed to touch her, not a single hair." β
Ah Cheng stopped talking, and he tended to follow Lin Tianze's steps.
"You don't want to manipulate any accidents. I repeat one last time, don't hurt her. Lin Tianze said expressionlessly, in fact, he usually has this expression most of the time, "I don't like disobedient subordinates." β
"You are a wolf at heart, with a keen sense of smell for spotting and catching enemies, and it is very difficult for the prey you are staring at to escape; When attacking the enemy, there is that courage and indomitable spirit; There is also a fickle wit on the spot, combining ferocity and wit, so to speak, as a war machine, you are perfect. Lin Tianze said to Lu Cheng.
At this time, Lu Cheng would listen to Lin Tianze's every word very carefully.
"But you have a fatal flaw, you don't think too much about the big picture, you can't see the situation clearly. Your vicious personality determines that what you want to do has a high chance of success, but getting too deep also means that you will have a hard chance of getting out. Lin Tianze stopped and turned to stare at him.
The rich and gloomy aura on his body slowly condensed, it is hard for you to imagine that a person has such a tragic and terrifying momentum, his restrained power exploded without warning at this moment, this is the real invincible warrior on the battlefield, the king of individual soldiers. His murderous eyes flashed red, and Lu Cheng even had some difficulty breathing under his gaze.
"Are you sure you're going to be higher than that girl in my heart?"
"Are you sure you can kill that girl without my permission?"
"Are you sure you'll get my forgiveness after killing that girl?"
"Are you sure your weak strength can withstand me?"
Lin Tianze slowly bent over, his terrifying face approaching Lu Cheng with a blade-like momentum, a mocking smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and the exposed snow-white teeth flashed with a cold light.
"Are you so sure I won't kill you early for her safety?"
When the rough and powerful hand tightly pinched Lu Cheng's neck, Lu Cheng still looked at Lin Tianze calmly.
His breathing became harder and harder, and no matter how much he struggled, the hand in his throat did not waver in the slightest.
With a bloodshot face and bulging eyes, Lu Cheng only felt that he was getting closer and closer to death. Gradually, he couldn't see clearly, and there was only a huge black shadow in front of him. The world in front of me slowly shattered and dissipated......
Even at this time, Lu Chengdu firmly believed that Lin Tianze would not kill him!
Suddenly, the hand of death was retracted, and the dissipated world suddenly gathered.
"I know." Lu Cheng gasped, raised his head stubbornly, and stared at Lin Tianze's face.
"Huh?" Lin Tianze said.
"I know," Lu Cheng bit his lip, "I know you won't kill me!" β
Lin Tianze looked at Lu Cheng, who was silent, and shook his head helplessly, "You are too naΓ―ve, people's hearts are far more complicated than you think." Not to mention getting along for three years, some people just get along for a lifetime, and in the end they don't hurt each other. β
"I saw that there was no scar on this gun, it was the so-called own person, and the bullet is still in the head." Lin Tianze pointed to the scar on the back of his head.
"Someone else is someone else, you are you!" Lucheng Road.
"Gone. There's still work to be done. Lin Tianze looked at Lu Cheng, who bit his lip and had a serious expression on his face, and finally didn't say anything more cruel, let's leave some beautiful illusions for these young people who are still a little innocent and righteous in their hearts.
Lu Cheng nodded and followed.
The backs of the two faded away.
