The big box full of dirt snapped open, the box is a relatively new rifle, the appearance is very well maintained, it is estimated that because the box is not badly sealed, the shape is a bit like the 38 big cover in Ma Tao's seal or Mauser 98K, the whole gun body is slender, the butt is pure solid wood, and the yellow bullets on both sides of this rifle are fixed, five in a row, there can be about dozens of rows, hundreds of rounds, and then the parchment roll on the top of the box.

"There seems to be a word on it"

Su Lanyu's eyes were sharp, and at a glance, he saw that there were words on the exposed corners of the parchment scroll.

"I see it"

Ma Tao squatted on the edge of the box and looked carefully, and found that there was no such thing as a hidden arrow, so he reached out and took the parchment roll and opened it.

"What's written in it? Hurry up"

Su Lanyu was anxious, Ma Tao was used as a ready-made reading voice speaker by her as soon as he got it in his hand, Ma Tao glanced at Su Lanxi, who was also curious but quietly waiting, and then glared at Su Lanyu, embarrassed to say anything.

"Warriors from afar, if you see this parchment scroll, please don't worry, these are all given to you by me, it is a rifle and two hundred rounds of ammunition, don't thank me, if you can, please destroy more hateful monsters on my behalf, my son is also a warrior, but unfortunately he lies here forever, these are his things, I am old, I have no way to avenge my child, and I can't walk that far, although I am full of hatred for this world, but I believe that evil cannot defeat the light——— A miserable old man."

Ma Tao finished reading word by word and put away the parchment roll, looked at the rifle and blinked, no matter how sensational the two women were, he directly took the rifle in his hand, took out a plate of five bullets and pressed the magazine, loaded it with a click, and fired a shot at the treetops in the distance.

The power of the rifle is much greater than that of the pistol, and the penetration is stronger, the sound is louder, this shot, startled countless birds in the forest, the crisp sound of the gun echoed throughout the depths of the dense forest, for a long time, and also woke up the two girls who were still addicted to the parchment roll.

"What are you doing!"

Su Lanyu patted his chest and scolded Ma Tao angrily to express his dissatisfaction, and although Su Lanxi was also startled by the sudden gunshot, he just looked at Ma Tao and did not squeak.

"This gun is good! Much more powerful than a pistol."

Ma Tao ignored her, flipped left and right to look at the rifle in his hand, was quite satisfied, and directly threw the revolver in his arms to Su Lanyu

"I gave it to you, and it just so happens that you don't have a long-range attack weapon either"

"Who cares about your?"

Although Su Lanyu said this, he took it directly in his hand, and then put it on his waist.

"Beware of misfire, the insurance is not closed, don't hit yourself"

Ma Tao glanced at her big grin, and deliberately scared her.

"You tiger, I don't know how to shoot, what insurance does the revolver have, just pull the trigger! Don't talk nonsense! Give me all the bullets, you won't need them if you have a rifle! ”

Su Lanyu's big eyes widened, and he reached out to go to Ma Tao's trouser pocket to find a bullet, this stretch out, as a man, especially a virgin, how sensitive it is, Ma Tao was frightened and covered it indiscriminately, but Su Lanyu didn't react, and he insisted on turning it over.

"Sister!"

Su Lanxi saw that this action was indeed too indecent, so he hurriedly reminded him, and when Su Lanyu reacted when he heard this, he hurriedly took a few steps back, and his pretty face turned red.

"I don't want it anymore"

After Su Lanyu reacted that something was wrong, she turned around and was about to leave, but she was still unwilling in her heart

"Sister, you helped my sister get it"

"I ......"

Su Lanxi's face also turned red, how can he take it himself, until now, he and Ma Tao are just holding hands and talking about love, which is too embarrassing.

"Yes, yes, yes, I've taken your urgency, I'll give it to you, I'll give it to you."

If Su Lanxi was asked to find bullets in his trouser pocket, Ma Tao couldn't stand it, so he quickly gave Su Lanyu the remaining pistol bullets, in fact, he also wanted to free up the space on his body to load rifle bullets.

When all the pistol bullets were given to Su Lanyu and the account was completely dismissed, Ma Tao began to load rifle bullets on his body, what backpack, trouser belt, leather armor pocket, trouser pocket, everything that could be loaded was full of Ma Tao, and in the end there were still nearly 100 bullets that could not be loaded, Su Lanxi on the side took the initiative to help Ma Tao load bullets when she saw it, and her own small backpack was also full, but there were still more than 60 rounds in the box, there was no way, she could only be abandoned.

Su Lanyu couldn't point at all, he was covered in leather clothes and leather pants, just a small bag, which was already filled with pistol bullets and two bottles of water.

Put the rest of the bullets away, close the box, and put it back in place, the sky has completely darkened, but there is also a benefit, that is, behind the three of them, that is, about a dozen miles away, there are sporadic lights.

The bright light of this night is also learned, the swaying is the firelight, the soft and immobile is the light, the erratic is phosphorescence, and the sparkling is the water, so there are definitely people in the distance for more than ten miles.

The three of them set off again, and after two hours of travel, they saw several houses made of logs, two stories and one floor, very simple, with smoke coming out, compared to someone cooking.

At the mention of eating, the stomachs of the three of them rumbled together.

After walking for a day, several people were tired, no one could laugh at anyone, at this moment they were naturally overjoyed to see a populated place, and they could get in, and they accelerated their pace, however, the three of them were still cautious, and the guys in their hands were placed in the most convenient place, so that they could attack at any time, that is, Ma Tao, the rifle was too long, and it could only be held in the hand, but this was fine, and the reaction in case of danger could be more quickly counterattacked.

came to the surroundings of these wooden houses, and when they saw the scene here, the three of them all instantly let down their guard.

Outside the cabin is a vegetable field, an old man is harvesting a few cabbages in the vegetable field, a yellow hound is quietly guarding the side with a red tongue and sitting, and a few old men are also busy around here.

When Ma Tao and the others saw this scene, they glanced at each other, knew that there was no danger at all, and put away their guns, and at this time, several old people in the vegetable field also saw Ma Tao and the three of them coming from afar, and an old man with a crutch came over.

"How long has it been since a stranger has been here, a guest from afar, but lost?"

A hunched white-haired old man looked very happy to see the three of them.

"They must have lost their way, just like Xiaoguang" Another old man on crutches looked at the white-haired old man who had just spoken for Ma Tao and answered for them, and the other old men also nodded yes, and they all looked at Ma Tao and the three of them with kind eyes.

"A few old people, don't hide it, we are indeed lost, it is late, the mountains and forests are dark, this is why we came here, borrow a night, please disturb"

Ma Tao has always respected the elderly, and their age should be respected, and talking to these old men is also respectful.

"It's okay, it's okay, we'll send you something to eat later, you have a good rest, and we'll talk about it tomorrow."

The old man, who was hunched up, waved his hand and said to another old man

"Tell your wife to clean up the room on the second floor and let these warriors stay for one night" The old man who was ordered didn't say anything after hearing this, nodded and hurried to the cabin on the second floor.

"It's good to eat in a while, let's go! Let's go inside and talk, it's been a long time since there's a stranger here, are there any monsters outside? ”

The old man who was lying on his back was leading the way, don't look at it as a hunchback, his body was quite tough, and he pushed open the door of the cabin closest to them and let Ma Tao and them inside, and the other two old men also followed into the house.

"Old man, the outside world is still so chaotic, the world is still ruled by Noah, alas, otherwise we wouldn't have come here to meet you old birthday stars."

Su Lanxi looked at the old people and smiled, answering the old man's question, his eyes were very curious, and Su Lanyu looked around with the corner of his eye as if he found something wrong.

"Old man, why is it only you here, your children, there are no young people?"

Although Su Lanyu's face was calm, as if she was asking intentionally or unintentionally, this also asked the question in Ma Tao's heart.

When the hunchbacked old man and the other old people in the house heard this, they all showed a knowing smile, but the smile was full of indescribable sadness and pain, and the wrinkles on their faces represented the indescribable vicissitudes of life.

"It turned out that there was only our family here, and later, the child and her mother were captured by monsters, and then ...... This room is the room of my dead son......... Alas........."

As the old man spoke, tears appeared in the corners of his old eyes, sliding down the wrinkles on his face and falling to the ground.

"I used to be a warrior, I killed a lot of marauders, and a lot of things happened later, and my teammates tried to protect me one by one... Never mind... I don't want to mention it......"

The other old man also lowered his head and remained silent.

"We are all people who have abandoned our dreams and fame, and now, we can only leave memories to accompany us"

The hunchbacked old man's words resonated with the old men, and the old men in the room all seemed to be much older in an instant.

"I'm sorry......... I don't know ........."

Seeing these old people crying here reminiscing about the past, Su Lanyu, the initiator of all this, felt sad and felt guilty.

"It's all over, let's go, let's eat, Xiaoguang's cooking is delicious"

After the hunchbacked old man said this, several old men wiped away their tears, like an ignorant, forgetful and innocent child, regained their smiles again, followed one by one, and actually lined up out of the cabin, leaving Ma Tao and the three of them in a daze.

"I'm sorry, they're getting older, they're all a little stupid, don't laugh"

At the door of the cabin, a neutral voice said.

"Are you...?"

Su Lanxi looked at the visitor, this is a thin and tall middle-aged man, forty or fifty years old, with a standard Chinese face, small eyes, and a chef's hat, who was standing at the door at this time holding an iron spoon for stir-frying and looking at the three people in the room.

"My name is Photon, you can call me Uncle Guang, I guess, you also came here to find monsters and get lost, in fact, I also came here because I got lost, and then I felt that life here is good, you can breathe fresh air, and there are a lot of delicious food, and every day gives people a new feeling that I don't want to be a displaced bounty hunter, how about staying?"

The person who claimed to be called Photon looked at Ma Tao and they leaked a smile, and when they heard their words, they didn't move, and laughed.

"I won't tease you, in fact, one of them is my father, you are still young, I can't easily make a choice for you, this is also irresponsible to you, let's go, let's go to dinner together"

Ma Tao doesn't know how good this peach blossom source hidden in the deep mountains and old forests is, but these small cabins and a few acres of vegetable fields are already very satisfying for a few people who live here.

Maybe time can really change a lot, Ma Tao feels like this, in the painful things will be faded by time, maybe forgetting is a kind of protection of the brain for pain.

Dinner was very simple and simple, cabbage and potatoes were stewed in a pot, several old men and old ladies were constantly playing and laughing at the dinner table, and they were coaxed to eat by Uncle Guang one by one like children, perhaps, this is also a kind of happiness.

The dinner ended in such an atmosphere, but something more embarrassing followed, that is, Uncle Guang thought that Su Lanyu and Su Lanxi sisters were Ma Tao's women, so they only arranged a room, and Ma Tao was very happy with this news, although his face did not change at all, he kept sighing in his mouth, and the coke blossomed in his heart.

Then, there was no then, the two sisters of the Su family slept comfortably on the bed, and Ma Tao successfully slept outside the door, but fortunately, the two sisters did not do too much, and gave Ma Tao a quilt, so that he would not be frozen and woke up in the second half of the night.

On the second day, Ma Tao got up early, there was really no way, the hard ground was really uncomfortable, this sleep, sleep and wake up finally dealt with the past, knocked on the door to remind the two little lazy cats in the house to get up, Ma Tao packed up his weapons and equipment, and put the bedding pillow at the door and went down to the second floor.

Mountains and forests, the clouds are light and the wind is light, the air is not generally fresh, the sun has just risen, there is no way to shine the earth through the dense woods, the whole mountain forest is filled with a white mist, I don't know who raised the rooster to keep crowing, everywhere gives people a kind of tranquility and serenity.

Ma Tao suddenly understood the idea of the self-proclaimed Uncle Guang big brother, and it was indeed very infatuated to be able to suddenly feel such a carefree time in his life of exile.

"Strange, where have all the people gone?"

Ma Tao went down to the small wooden building and looked around, but he didn't find anyone, even the dog he saw yesterday was gone, and he was very strange in his heart, and he muttered in his heart, where can they go so early?

Ma Tao turned to the back of the wooden house, and happened to meet Uncle Guang, who took care of him, Uncle Guang glanced up at Ma Tao, and reluctantly gave a smile to say hello.

"Uncle Guang! Where have the old people gone? Why didn't I see any of them? ”

The two could get in, Ma Tao asked with a smile but found that Uncle Guang's eyes were a little red and swollen, as if he had cried just now

"What's wrong with your eyes?"

"It's all right, they all went to the woods behind"

Uncle Guang rubbed his eyes, as if wiping his tears, and continued

"I'm going to get some breakfast, it's not good for my health to skip breakfast"

After speaking, regardless of Ma Tao's different eyes, he hurriedly went to prepare breakfast.

"What?"

Ma Tao drew a question mark in his head, full of suspicion, looked at the back of Uncle Guang and looked at the direction where Uncle Guang came, it was a tree-lined path, very long, Ma Tao thought about it, and walked along the path when Uncle Guang came.

"Woo...... Woo..."

The road is very long, Ma Tao walked farther and farther, bursts of crying and sighing sounds came from the depths of the woods, from far to near, and walked for a while, and finally came to the source of the sound, but the scene in front of Ma Tao also wanted to find the way.

"Good brother...... Whining... Do you remember that time when we were attacked by monsters, so many of our companions who went with us died, and now I am guarding your grave, I don't want to go anywhere and live here in peace........."

"Son...... Whining... I really regret that I shouldn't have let you be a hunter in the first place..."

In front of me was a cemetery, with graves of different sizes and sizes, at least a dozen of them, and those old men were kneeling or sitting in front of those graves one by one, weeping, telling their stories, and each of them was crying with old tears and wrinkled faces.

Among them, there are confiding in their comrades-in-arms, missing their relatives, or thinking that they are sinners who have committed some wrong things, but all of them are the most sincere feelings.........

Ma Tao didn't bother them, nor did he look at what was written on the tombstone out of curiosity, but quietly retreated.

This is the respect for the old people but also for the dozen or so people lying in the cemetery, the years can carry everything, these old people may even forget themselves, forget when and where, but can never forget their past, can not forget the cemetery is their own people, this is the feelings, the purest feelings.

When I returned to the cabin, I met two sisters who were looking for me.

"Where have you been, I can't find you anywhere"

When Su Lanxi saw Ma Tao come back, the worried expression on his face disappeared.

"He's such a big person, will he get lost? I think I've done something unseemly."

Su Lanyu's mouth was vicious, and it ruined Ma Tao's mood early in the morning, but Ma Tao had just returned from the cemetery deep in the woods, and he was in a low mood, and he was not in the mood to worry about these things with her.

"After breakfast I decided to leave"

Ma Tao thought about it, this place is indeed very hidden, and it is also very safe, after staying for a long time, it is really easy to make people obsessed with the tranquility here, this paradise-like place is like heaven for the world where monsters are rampant, but it is too comfortable here, comfortable and a little lifeless, all day long like a puppet is to repeat yesterday's past, this is not what Ma Tao wants, this is not in line with his original intention, but the two sisters are very suitable for here, so Ma Tao said I decided to leave.

"Me? Will you forsake us? ”

Su Lanyu reacted quickly, and immediately heard Ma Tao's words and said coldly.

"It's safe here, don't you think it's a good fit for you?"

Ma Tao has made a decision in his heart, and what he says cannot be refused.

"Are you going to drive us away? But you said you wanted to take revenge with us? ”

Su Lanxi had already begun to shed tears, and his voice had changed a little.

"You have seen the outside world, it is dangerous, I don't want to see you hurt......"

Ma Tao looked directly at Su Lanxi's pretty face, and refused to give in at all.

"That has nothing to do with me, I'm a hunter, I have combat effectiveness, leave Lan Xi behind, you take me for revenge"

Su Lanyu waved his hand and said a seemingly perfect method.

"Do you have bugs in your head?"

Ma Tao turned his head and glared at her, he really didn't know what this girl was in her head, her nerves were so big

"Leave your sister alone here where you don't know your life, don't worry? As for your revenge, I will avenge you."

"What then! Do we have to stay? ”

Su Lanyu didn't think about it so much, and her thoughts were extremely simple.

"Avenge us? But you never asked us who our enemies were, nor where our enemies were........."

Su Lanxi lowered his head sadly as he spoke, looking very helpless, "Actually, it doesn't matter to me whether I take revenge or not, I just don't want you to have an accident........."
