Chapter 15: One Life for One Life
When the sun rose again, there was a hint of mist in the woods.
Shen Mengyao squinted her eyes, stretched her waist, and she really fell asleep on the hard ground.
Sitting up suddenly, her head was sober, and the first thing she had to do was to find Tang Yi's whereabouts.
Looking around, she didn't see Tang Yi's figure, which made her heart tense.
The bonfire had been extinguished, and she didn't dare to scream when she got up, could it be that he left alone while she was asleep.
"What are you looking for?"
Just when Shen Mengyao was looking left and right in panic, Tang Yi's voice suddenly came from behind.
Shen Mengyao, who hurriedly turned around, looked at a few unknown fruits in her hand, and it turned out that she was looking for food.
"Why don't you walk with a sound!"
After breathing a sigh of relief, Shen Mengyao said helplessly, obviously stepping on military boots, but there was no sound.
"Get used to it, there's only this thing to eat around here, let's fill your stomach first!"
There is not much food in the war-torn land, and every day there are people who starve to death, and everything they can eat has been eaten.
This fruit is the only thing that can be eaten, and he directly handed the skinny fruit to Shen Mengyao, and Tang Yi walked away.
"It's so astringent!"
I haven't eaten seriously for two days, and Shen Mengyao came up with a bite.
But the fruit did not have the slightest sweetness in her mouth, and she couldn't help frowning with bitterness and astringency.
"There are six million people in Somalia who are starving to death at any time because of food shortages, so it's good to have something to eat."
Tang Yi didn't look back, he had been cold all the time, but he didn't eat anything.
Frowning and stuffing a few wild fruits into her mouth, Shen Mengyao could only endure it now.
"You said you sent me out of the way? How to send it! ”
Tang Yi walked quickly, and Shen Mengyao, who was a little afraid of the silent bushes, hurriedly followed.
Although he has always been cold, Shen Mengyao is still very grateful to him for saving his life several times.
"You'll know when the time comes, just go back to the village first."
The communication here is very troublesome, and Tang Yi, who has a specific way, can only return to the village first.
Although she didn't know what method he would use, Shen Mengyao didn't ask any more, there was still a long way to go, and she could only follow silently.
With a map and directions in his mind, after walking out of the woods, Tang Yi chose a path and walked towards the pirate village.
Years of war have been raging, and there are traces of war everywhere, and when you cross the mound, you can still see the wreckage of damaged tanks.
The undulating mounds of undulating soil with no grass and unevenness lasted from morning to afternoon, and when Shen Mengyao was about to feel that her legs were wasted, Tang Yi finally stopped.
Now where they are standing, Shen Mengyao also knows that it is really close to the dirt slope by the sea.
Standing here, you can look down on the whole village, and look at the colorful roofs and dilapidated buildings, they are finally back.
"Not good!"
But before Shen Mengyao could even out her breath, Tang Yi suddenly shouted, followed by the whole person, who had already jumped down the dirt slope more than ten meters high.
Unloading the momentum from a forward flip on the spot, he ran towards the village like a gust of wind.
Shen Mengyao hurriedly raised her eyes to look into the distance, and soon she also noticed that something was wrong, because at this time, there was smoke billowing from the pirate village.
And the location where the smoke came from the three-story tulou where he once lived.
Without Tang Yi's skills, she could only take a detour and leave Tupi, the face of the little girl Lisa flashing in her mind, hoping that she would be safe.
Tang Yi hadn't been around for a while and had already rushed back to the collapsed courtyard, but when he stopped, the scene in front of him made his eyes bloody.
Because at this time, on top of the ruins, there were several corpses lying on top of each other, and these corpses were all very young, and they were the war orphans that Tang Yi took in.
They were shot and lifeless, blood flowed down the wounds, and judging from the movement of them falling to the ground, they should have wanted to flee for their lives.
It's just that in the end, they didn't have bullets to run fast, and this is the end of their young age.
"Handsome guy!"
Just when Tang Yi's eyes were blood-red, suddenly on top of the fire-stained tulou, an immature voice shouted in horror.
In the flames, Tang Yi looked up and saw that outside the window on the third floor, an arm was holding a child, and she was Lisa.
It was her grandfather, who had been paralyzed for two years, who grabbed Lisa, and I don't know what force made him climb all the way from the first floor to the third floor after the fire.
The fire was getting bigger and bigger, the smoke was billowing out, and there was no room in the room, so he poked the young Lisa out of the window with his arm.
The fire was still burning violently, and the smoke was pouring out of the window, but the grandfather who was lying on the window endured the pain of the fire and hung his only granddaughter out of the window.
"Lisa!"
Shen Mengyao also ran back at this time, looking at Lisa hanging out of the window with a disgraced face.
The flames had already rushed out from behind her, and it was obvious that the arm had begun to tremble violently, and I was afraid that my grandfather, who was still in the window at this time, was being consumed by the flames.
"I can't get in!"
Shen Mengyao instinctively wanted to rush into the staircase, but the fire was too big, and Tang Yi grabbed her.
Now that all three floors have been set on fire, there is only one death for rushing into the flames.
"What then!"
In the midst of the fire, Lisa was already crying in fright, and if it weren't for her grandfather's arm hanging her out of the window, she would have been engulfed in the fire.
Shen Mengyao watched the raging fire, and there was no water source to fight the fire.
And at this moment, Tang Yi suddenly moved.
With a dip in his right hand, he pulled out the three-edged military thorn that he had been carrying, and with a flick of his wrist, the sharp military thorn shot directly to the location on the second floor.
Pierced into the earthen wall, without the handle of the knife, Tang Yi's whole person quickly rushed towards the still burning earthen building.
With both feet kicking, Tang Yi jumped high, and he jumped up for the second time after accurately stepping on the hilt of the knife in mid-air.
Raising his hands in the air to grab Lisa, who was hanging from the window on the third floor, Tang Yi turned over with a pigeon and quickly fell to the ground.
Holding Lisa, he fell to the ground from the third floor more than ten meters high and immediately rolled over, and after unloading the inertia, Lisa was considered to have saved the day.
"Grandpa! Grandfather! ”
Lisa, who was crying like a tearful person, pointed to the third floor and shouted after escaping.
Tang Yi and Shen Mengyao raised their heads, and at this time, Lisa's grandfather had already poked his head out of the window with both hands.
With a relieved smile on his face, after seeing that his only granddaughter was safe, the old man fell into the flames.
The window on the third floor was engulfed in flames in an instant, and he saved Lisa with the last second of his life.
Tears flowed down her cheeks, Shen Mengyao looked at the tumbling fire, the greatness of family affection was nothing more than that.
