Chapter 51: Light
"I'm not sure how wide the hole is and whether it can be passed through, but the water under the pool is very turbulent and rushing towards the passage, so it must be the exit." Li Xinchen then said, "But how long it will take to go after this, I don't know." ”
"Without further ado, hurry up!" Xiao Shilian said in a deep voice, anyway, for them who have been cornered now, there is no other choice, it is better than being caught up by these ghostly bandits and Northern Zhou armor soldiers and killed.
What's more, Xiao Shilian didn't want to die like this, hundreds of brothers were desperate to block the front, isn't it just to find a way for him to live.
Li Xinchen was silent for a moment, pushed out his own sister in his arms, and directly grabbed Li Li'er and Xiao Shilian's hands and let the two of them hold together: "Brother Xiao, you and I have known each other, and it can be regarded as fate." Now I've entrusted my sister to you, take her away! ”
Xiao Shilian's face changed slightly, and while holding Li Li'er to prevent her from being washed away by the water, he reached out and grabbed Li Xinchen: "What about you?" ”
"Daddy is dead, the Zheng family and the two uncles of the Song family are also dead, as well as Song Fei, Li Qiu, Zheng Qing, and these women and children struggling on the shore, the old and weak, and the villagers ······." Li Xinchen slowly turned his head to look at Xiao Shilian, "Do you think you can watch them all die here!" ”
"Smack!" Crisp applause rang out, and Xiao Shilian slapped Li Xinchen without hesitation.
"Brother!" Li Li'er obviously also heard this crisp voice and exclaimed, but was stopped by Xiao Shilian directly reaching out.
The footsteps grew louder and denser, the sounds of killing were incessant, and in the darkness people were struggling to make their way into the water, but the flying arrows hindered their continued path. Arrows roared and landed on the water beside Li Xinchen.
"Who do you think you'll be able to save if you go back now? Do you think that the women and children in the village will be able to last as long as we can last in the water? What's more, we've told them how to survive here, and we can't care if we can get out on our own! Xiao Shilian's roar echoed in Li Xinchen's ears, and this man, who was actually only in his early twenties, reached out and beat his chest.
"Do you think Lao Tzu is not uncomfortable in his heart, there are your relatives and friends who died just now, and there are also Lao Tzu's brothers!"
"But they died here, not to let you and me die with them, but to let us live and avenge them one day!"
Li Xinchen's expression had become hideous, and he grabbed Xiao Shilian's shirt: "What's the difference between leaving so many people here now and being a coward?!" ”
Xiao Shilian didn't speak, and directly pressed Li Xinchen into the water, and an arrow roared over Li Xinchen's head, and several figures who wanted to get close to Li Xinchen screamed and fell from the arrow. The strong smell of blood filled the air, and the breath of death drew closer and closer, and finally enveloped Li Xinchen and them.
Li Xinchen jerked out of the water, although he couldn't see clearly in the dark, but he knew very well that he was now soaked in blood. The movement on the shore had gradually subsided, and shouts and footsteps could be faintly heard, and the cries of the old and weak women and children in the village could no longer be found.
"Let's go." Li Xinchen said lightly, "You're right, I'm sorry." ”
It's too late now, even if Li Xinchen goes back, it won't help. At this moment, Li Xinchen and Xiao Shilian's only choice is to be cowards, because only in this way can they live to avenge these damned enemies in the future.
What's more, in addition to these villagers, there is also Li Li'er, and Li Xinchen can't allow himself to leave his sister alone. As an elder brother, he didn't allow this, and if his father Li Cheng's spirit in the sky saw Li Xinchen choose like this, I am afraid there would be no way to forgive him.
Even if he is a coward, Li Xinchen has no choice, after all, the most important thing for him now is to survive.
Xiao Shilian sighed, and Li Li'er next to her couldn't help but cover her mouth, whether it was the corpse floating on the water not far away or the bloody breath in the air, it was like a nightmare for this young girl, especially her father had just died, and Li Li'er at this time was like walking from one nightmare to another.
Now only his brother and this young general who has not said a word can be relied on as his own.
And Xiao Shilian didn't look at Li Xinchen, who was still stunned behind him, and dragged Li Li'er fiercely and walked deeper into the waterhole first.
Li Xinchen covered his hot face and couldn't help but smile bitterly. The slap that Xiao Shilian slapped just now still hurts faintly.
This guy, this slap is really real.
I really didn't think of myself as an outsider.
Li Xinchen tried to look into the darkness, the sound of water sounded, obviously someone was trying to enter the water, and then he heard a low herald, obviously after cleaning the shore, these people were searching for any fish in the waterhole who tried to hide.
It is the hardest to die through the ages, and it is the easiest to die through the ages.
Daddy, two uncles, as well as Ah Qing, Ah Fei, and Li Qiu, you guys left and walked happily. In the end, Lao Tzu was left alone, and he had to bear this sea of blood and hatred.
Li Xinchen took a deep breath and plunged into the water.
"There's someone here!" Hearing the distinct sound of splashing, the soldiers who were cautiously searching forward in the water rushed towards this side with a scream, and the arrows whistled on the surface of the water, but when they arrived, only corpses and arrows floating on the surface of the water were left.
The icy pool water once again completely submerged Li Xinchen, and the tumbling water was filled with this crimson blood, but Li Xinchen couldn't see it in the dark. He swam forward as far as he could, stretched out his hand and tugged at the package tied around his waist, Li Xinchen grabbed the rope wrapped around the package, and the pull on the rope became stronger and stronger, indicating that Xiao Shilian and Li Li'er were in front, and it was obvious that the two of them had already entered the underwater turbulence first.
If you leave, you will never go back.
Li Xinchen closed his eyes and moved forward vigorously in the direction of the rope. Soon the turbulent water enveloped him, and a touch of light, a touch of light that Li Xinchen had seen in the endless darkness before, appeared in front of him, even if Li Xinchen closed his eyes, he could still feel the existence of this light.
Slowly opening his eyes, Li Xinchen looked at the rope that had entered the light, and paddled the water violently, and the whole person immediately disappeared into the light. The rugged and tortuous passage made Li Xinchen's eyes glow, but fortunately, because of the long-term erosion of the water, the walls of this passage were quite smooth, and a downward force pushed Li Xinchen involuntarily along the passage.
With a soft "bang", Li Xinchen was hitting a stone wall in front of him, his eyes were dark, and he completely lost consciousness.
And just ahead, the sound of water gushing was like thunder.
