Chen Shi's back was frightened by the appearance of the man in black, but he still clenched the sword in his hand, imagining the heart of the man in black as a small hole in the old locust tree.

He half-squatted on the tree, finding the most suitable position to exert his strength, and he was sure that as long as the man in black flew up, he would be able to pierce his heart with a sword.

However, he thought too simply.

I saw the man in black standing on the ground, raising his left hand, his fingers bent slightly, turned his palm into a claw, and stole it in the direction of Chenshi.

Tatsushi felt in horror that his own body was actually tilting uncontrollably in the direction of the man in black. He hurriedly hugged the trunk of the tree with his left arm, and held the sword across his chest with his right hand.

The black-clothed man sucked in the air with such a great force that the thick trunk of the tree creaked, and it was about to break.

Chen Shi understood that if this continued, he would always be sucked to the ground by the man in black.

The man in black had a playful smile on his face, which reminded him of the damn monster - they all treated themselves as playthings in their hands, as if his life was as innocuous as an ant.

Chen Shi was not afraid of anger in his heart, he suddenly spread his arms, kicked the trunk of the tree under his feet, and with the power of the black-clothed man's absorption, he stabbed the black-clothed man from top to bottom.

This sword is as fast as a frightening wave.

The man in black's eyes widened, he never expected this country child to be so fast. Between the lightning and flint, the tip of Chenshi's sword was no longer too far from his eyes.

The man in black leaned back sharply to dodge, but felt a sharp pain in his forehead, and a stream of hot blood flowed down his forehead, wetting his eyes. Before he could turn his head, he heard that after Chen Shi landed and rolled behind him, he did not stop, but followed by another sword coming at him.

The man in black was extremely angry in his heart, the last sword was because of his carelessness to let this kid get cheap, and this sword came again, it was to send him to death.

Chen Shi saw that his sword was about to pierce the waist of the man in black, but when he saw the man in black suddenly turn sideways, the sword stabbed into the air. But at this hour, he used too much force, and it was too late to stabilize his body, but leaned forward, almost sending his body in front of the man in black.

Then, Chen Shi only felt a sharp pain in his lower abdomen, and a mouthful of blood spurted out of his mouth - the man in black kicked him hard in the lower abdomen, kicking him far away, hitting a tree, and sliding down again.

Chen Shi only felt that the bones in his body seemed to be broken, and he leaned against the trunk of the tree, coughing up blood constantly, looking terrible.

The blow of the man in black almost killed him.

Chen Shi raised his head hard, staring angrily at the man in black who was walking slowly towards him, even if he died, he would never bow his head.

The man in black walked up to Chen Shi with a bloody face - Chen Shi's original sword cut off a piece of his scalp from the center of his forehead, and the blood flowed for a long time, but he didn't wipe it, let the blood flow on his face.

The man in black slowly drew his long sword, and then stabbed Tatsushi through the shoulder, pinning Tatsushi firmly to the tree.

Chen Shi snorted, although his shoulder was in severe pain, he understood that the worse he screamed, the happier the man in black became.

"You little bastard, your bones are hard. The man in black snorted coldly, squatted down, and stared at Chenshi's face.

"At a young age, he looks quite handsome, and his swordsmanship is not bad, it's a pity. The man in black snorted and pulled his sword out of Chenshi's shoulder, and a stream of blood spurted onto his black clothes.

Chen Shi hissed, gritted his teeth, and with his last strength, a mouthful of blood spat on the face of the man in black, "If you want to kill, you will kill, there is a lot of." ”

The man in black laughed angrily and said, "It's too cheap to kill you like this." You know I'm from the Aoyama faction, so do you know that there will be other people going to the village to finish up? That guy is much more cruel than me. ”

Sure enough, as soon as these words came out, Chen Shi's face was no longer bloodless, he trembled all over, and he didn't know where the strength came from, picked up the sword beside him and swung it at the man in black, shouting hoarsely: "I'll kill you!

It's a pity that he is a dying man, how much strength does he have, this sword is in vain in front of the man in black, and there is no need to hide at all.

Tatsushi smiled miserably, threw his sword to the ground, closed his eyes and gave up struggling.

He suddenly felt ridiculous, and even more so that the world was ridiculous—what did he come to about this hellish world?

Gradually, his mind began to blur, and his mind imprinted scenes from his previous life—laughter with his younger siblings, sadness when he saw his mother lying in a hospital bed, and slowly, his eyes became dark and empty.

This is what death feels like, right?

Eventually, Tatsushi's mind completely dissipated into nothingness.

When the man in black saw that his body was not dead when he saw Chen, but his heart died first, he suddenly felt bored.

If he kept struggling to resist, maybe he would split him in half. But looking at his miserable appearance now covered in blood and unable to move, I felt that there was no need for that, wouldn't it be better to leave him to feed his dead body to the jackals, tigers and leopards in the mountains and forests?

Thinking so, the man in black smiled contentedly, wiped the blood from his face with his mask, and then threw it away, walking away.

I don't know how long it took, but in the dark and empty mind of Chenshi, a little glimmer of light appeared. Then, the glimmer of light gradually expanded, slowly activating every nerve in his brain.

Chenshi's mind began to clear, he smelled the medicinal incense, heard the sound of the waves crashing against the reef, and felt the damp breeze.

He frowned and slowly opened his eyes. He saw a white mosquito net hanging from the side of the bed, and a door in the middle of the room was open, facing the sea he had never seen before.

Where is this?

Chen Shi sat up with great difficulty, feeling that his body was weak, but there was no longer a pain. He was dressed in a layer of tulle, and there was no blood or wounds on his body.

Chen Shi hurriedly took off his clothes and looked at his left shoulder, which had been pierced by the sword of the man in black. He was horrified to find that there was a slender scar there, and the scar did not look like it had just grown, but it was faint, as if it had been recovered for several years.

Chen Shi hurriedly fell to the ground, but because he was too weak to stand firmly, he fell to the wooden floor, and he realized that his arms and legs had grown a lot.

"This ...... What's going on?" Chen Shi muttered in confusion, and his voice startled him—it wasn't the voice of a nine-year-old, but like a teenager in the middle of a voice change, with a thick and low tone.

At this moment, a thirteen or fourteen-year-old boy ran in from outside the door, he excitedly rushed to Chenshi, who was sitting on the ground, hugged Chenshi, and said with a cry, "Brother, you have finally woken up!"

Chen Shi was stunned, he looked at the young man in front of him, and there was a bit of his younger brother Chen Yu between his eyebrows.

"You...... Are you Yu'er?" said Chenshi, in a trembling voice.

"Yes, brother, I'm Yu'er, I'm Yu'er!" Chen Yu shook Chen Shi's shoulder vigorously, pinching him painfully.

Chen Shi touched Chen Yu's angular face in disbelief, and said, "You are Yu'er...... How did you grow so big?"

Chen Yu wiped away the tears from the corners of his eyes and said happily: "Yes, brother, Yu'er has grown up! Do you know brother, you have been in a coma for five years, I thought you would never wake up in your life!"

After Chen Yu finished speaking, he hugged Chen Shi again, this was his only family member, and this time he would not allow him to be injured in the slightest.

Chenshi's body was stiff and stunned—five years, how many more years are there in this life? This heavy blow actually made him miss the most precious five years of his life, which was the transformation from a child to a teenager.

Chen Shi suddenly thought of something, he grabbed Chen Yu's arm with a frightened face, and said, "What about my sister? Where is my sister? What happened after I fell into a coma that day?"

Chen Shi saw that the expression on Chen Yu's face immediately dimmed, and his heart ached violently, and he could barely breathe.

"On that day, we heard that there were thieves killing people and setting fire to the mountain, so Master sent these new disciples of our Nameless Peak to come down the mountain to rescue people, led by Senior Brother Nanmen. On the mountain, I saw that several villages under the green hill were on fire, and ...... Among them is our village. Seeing that I was anxious, Senior Brother Nanmen took me to fly in front of me with the sword. Passing by the woods, we found you. At that time, you were almost, almost a dead man. Chen Yu said this, and his voice trembled a little, as if it was still terrible to recall that day.

Seeing Chen's face getting worse and worse, Chen Yu hesitated for a moment but continued: "Fortunately, Senior Brother Nanmen is poison...... No, it's a family of medicine, he stopped your blood, fed you another pill, and asked me and my two senior brothers to take you back to the mountains to bandage first. But I didn't see my sister, and I was in a hurry, so I also had to follow Senior Brother Nanmen to our village. When I arrived at the village, I could barely walk, because the village was littered with charred corpses, and there was not a single living person. Our small courtyard was also on fire, but when we put out the fire and walked in, we didn't see my sister and didn't ...... There were no corpses. At that time, I prayed in my heart that my sister must have run out. But she was only six years old, could she outrun the murderers? Finally, we counted more than 100 corpses in the village, including nine little girls who were four, five, six, or seven years old. Excluding those who were burned in their own homes, there were two bodies that died on the edge of the house at the entrance of the village, and at that time, I couldn't tell if there was a sister in it, and most of the burned ones showed yellow-brown bones. Brother, do you remember how many little girls there are in the village?" Chen Yu asked Chen with a glimmer of hope, if the number was not right, their sister might still escape.

Chen Shi began to recall that he often helped people in the village, and he remembered clearly how old the little girl was, and even what she looked like.

But after five years of being in a coma, some unimportant memories became blurred.

How many little girls in the village were about the same age as my sister? were they eight or nine?

"Okay, brother, don't worry about it first, your body has finally recovered. Seeing this, Chen Yu hurriedly said, and he comforted Chen Shi again: "Anyway, I didn't see my sister...... My sister's body, maybe she's still alive. ”

"She's so small, where can she go if she's alive? Even the surrounding villages are dead, where is she going?" said Chenshi sadly.

After five years of dreaming, he was still able to reluctantly accept it. But if Tatsuya died, it would be something he would never be able to accept for the rest of his life.

He had secretly vowed to protect his brother and sister as long as he lived.

Especially Chen Yi, he raised her from a young age, and the affection of a father and brother cannot be replaced.

It's been five years, and my brother must have looked for my sister too, but I found nothing. This world is so dangerous, if my sister escapes and is still alive, then how has she spent the past five years.

At this moment, Chen Shi fell into deep regret and self-blame.

He regretted that he had been able to save the people of the village, and he was delusional about retreating.

He regretted leaving his sister to attract the man in black, if his sister woke up at that time and saw her brother who ran away alone, how sad and sad would she be?

The more Chen Shi thought about it, the more uncomfortable he became, and he covered his head and cried bitterly.

This world, no matter how hard he tries. In the end, all he was given a head-on blow.
