If a person is locked in a cage surrounded by centaurs sharpening their knives, his first instinct is often to struggle.

When you find out that struggling is useless, you will shout.

When you are tired of yelling and yelling, you will sit still and give up resistance.

If you give up resistance, you will be discouraged.

If you are discouraged, you will accept reality.

The above process is the five psychological stages of a normal person when facing death: rejection, anger, compromise, frustration, and acceptance.

Attention, it's a normal person.

Li Yi was obviously a little abnormal, because from the time he found out that he was being put in a cage by the centaur, he had been cursing for half an hour without stopping, and the residents of Quagmire Town, who had been arrested before him, had already entered the stage of compromise silently.

Centaurs can't understand human language, so no matter how meanly Li Yi scolds his mother, the three centaurs guarding the cage turn a deaf ear.

On the contrary, the residents of Quagmire Town, who were locked up with Li Yi, were a little unbearable.

A yellow-haired woman burst into her own screams in silence: "It's noisy, can you shut up." ”

Li Yi said disdainfully: "Anyway, they can't understand it, it's fun to scold a few more words, and they have to scold back to their roots when they die." ”

After saying this, Li Yi began to curse again, scolding the eighteenth generation of the ancestors of the centaur.

Strangely, even though Li Yi scolded extremely ugly, the game did not block his scolding, and the game seemed to acquiesce to the player's vicious words towards the centaur.

"Don't be discouraged. Silence is useless. To explode in silence, to spread our voices farther, to do everything we can to cause confusion to our opponents. Li Yi began to agitate the residents huddled in the cage, "Anyway, they are going to die, why not use the most disgusting words to inflict pain on the enemy before death, even the slightest pain." Resist, Jing Ke assassinated the King of Qin. ”

The residents of Mudd Town didn't understand what Jing Ke was to assassinate the King of Qin, but they felt that Li Yi had a little truth in what he said.

Anyway, if you want to die, why don't you die so loudly?

Some of the residents began to agitate, shaking the iron cages and clanging the shackles on their bodies.

The sound of the shackles gave Li Yi a huge encouragement, and he prostrated himself and stretched out his hands outside the iron cage, hitting the beat with his palms.

Regular applause echoed around Finney Ridge, and Li Yi shouted: "Get up! People who don't want to be slaves! Build our flesh and blood into our new Great Wall! The Chinese nation has reached the most dangerous time, and everyone is forced to let out the last roar. Get up! Get up! Get up! We are all united, braving the enemy's artillery fire, and marching! Braving enemy fire, advance! Advance! Advance! Enter! ”

The impassioned shouts fluttered in the night sky, and the residents trapped in the iron prison were gradually infected by this warm emotion, although they didn't know what Li Yi was singing, but their mouths also shouted and roared.

The yellow-haired woman in the same cage also hummed along, her eyes gradually colored.

Before Li Yi was imprisoned, she had screamed and been angry, but the cold night wind and the passing time made her lose her desire to survive.

Her fellow human voice evokes a faint sense of hope.

The residents' will to resist was aroused in a very short time, and Li Yi danced in the cramped cage.

However, there will always be a time when this excitement will dissipate.

The more times you get excited, the higher the threshold of excitement becomes, and there's no way to keep everyone that way forever.

Li Yi knew this, and he immediately thought of the story that Li Weiji had told.

"If an iron house is windowless and indestructible, and there are many sleeping people in it, who will soon suffocate to death, but go from slumber to death, and do not feel the sorrow of death. Do you think you are worthy of the cry of the more sober men, and the irremediable suffering of this unfortunate few? ”

Li Weiji said that this story came from Lu Xun, but Li Yi didn't know who this person was, and he didn't have a good impression of it. He thinks that this person named Lu Xun is purely out of nothing, and the story he made up is too extreme, how can there be such a tragic thing in the world?

But at the moment, Li Yi admired Lu Xun and watched the fire.

The centaurs remained indifferent to the cries of the humans, walking back and forth, their hooves trampling the earth.

A light rain fell on Finney's Ridge, and all the torches around the camp were extinguished, but the three centaurs held on.

The camp was covered with water droplets in an instant, and Li Yi's hair was covered with raindrops, which were in strings, dripping and drenching the Seraph's high-grade armor.

The night rain became colder, and the residents of the quagmire town, who were still shouting, gradually whispered, and finally died down.

The night was silent, only the rain tapped the leaves, and the owls that could not shelter from the rain let out a cold coo.

Li Yi still wanted to say something inspiring, but the words were washed away by the rain.

There was a crunching sound, and I don't know which cage was opened.

Then he heard the voice of the sermon begging for mercy in fear: "Don't kill me, don't kill me."

But the centaurs could not understand human language, and no matter how real and pitiful the cry for mercy was, the begger was still dead.

Li Yi has mixed feelings in his heart.

After being knocked unconscious by the centaur, he somehow woke up to the camp, and learned from the residents of the cage that this place was called Finney Ridge, northeast of the town of Mudpool, and behind the ridge was a swamp. The centaurs were supposed to cross the swamp and return to their base camp, but for some unknown purpose, the centaurs abandoned their plans to return to the base camp and instead chose to set up camp on this low ridge, and built this captive camp not far from the camp.

This time the centaurs burned and looted, and captured a total of 36 prisoners. Traditionally, centaurs would bring their captives back to the region, and after they would be skinned, cramped, and dried.

In other words, the captives are perfectly safe until they reach the Centaur base camp, and the Centaurs who treat humans as playthings will not waste any good skins.

But right now, one person is dead for no reason, and the centaur has broken its own tradition, which means that more people will die in the future.

The rain was getting heavier and heavier, and the weather was getting colder and colder, and Li Yi was shaking all over his body.

He trembled and thought about how to escape, but the iron cage could not be shaken.

Ten minutes passed in the blink of an eye, and there was another crunch.

This time it was a woman who begged for mercy, and she cried so hard that her throat was dry, but to no avail.

The woman must have been beheaded, because Li Yi saw the centaur playing in the rain through lightning.

The three centaurs were having a great time, and the wind and rain were not an obstacle to them at all, but more like a liquor to cheer them up.

The lightning came again, and Li Yi closed his eyes and didn't dare to look.

The two "poof" sounds should be the abnormal sound after the eyeball was stepped on, and the "ball" was kicked out.

It doesn't matter, there's a lot more in the cage.

Crunch.

This time, the cage door where Li Yi was located was opened.

The rough arms poked into the cage, and everyone instinctively ducked back, but where could the cage hide so small?

After a few fumbling of his arm, he easily caught the plaything.

All I heard was the cry: "Help me." ”

Although there was no light, Li Yi still recognized the owner of the voice, which was the yellow-haired woman who screamed just now.

The arm began to tug outward, and the yellow-haired woman clutched the iron cage tightly.

There was a sizzling sound, as if the white paper had been torn, and it was more like the skin of the hair had been torn apart.

The arm slipped out of the iron prison, and only to hear the centaur roar, and the arm reached in again.

That's how death pokes in and out of your life, sometimes you lose a piece of your scalp, more often you lose your head.

"Fight. It's time to send a signal to Lao Yi. Li Yi muttered to himself and slammed into his arm.

The arm was originally about to touch the yellow-haired woman again, but Li Yi put it on top and his arm shifted.

Before his arm could react, Li Yi tied his arm with shackles, but he didn't expect that the arm was extremely powerful, and he took Li Yi out of the cage with a pull.

Li Yi, who had long been preparing to die generously, stood in the heavy rain, the rain soaked his armor, and the bright red cloak was stuck to his back and could not be displayed.

Lightning shone up the sky, and the armor of the Seraphic Angel reflected a shining light, and the golden light was extremely dazzling.

But at this time, the more powerful the armor, the more embarrassed Li Yi became.

The hero is short of breath, and the horse is thin and long-haired.

The centaur who touched Li Yi seemed to have won the jackpot, and he cheered with his knife and distanced himself from Li Yi.

Li Yi understood: This centaur is fast with fast feet and fast knives, and after a while, he charges over, and when he rises and falls, he will completely belong to him.

With a long breath, Li Yi slowly closed his eyes and tightened the chains that bound him.

He's not giving up, he's listening.

The sound of hooves is getting closer and closer, the cold light is flashing, the metal is clashing, and a little spark bursts out of the sky on a rainy night.

A spark can start a prairie fire.

The centaur couldn't believe that his quick knife was blocked, and his companions laughed at him.

The enraged centaur swung his sword again, his hooves thundering, muddy water splashing everywhere.

The wind blew through the ends of Li Yi's hair and blew up the sticky cloak.

The knife scraped Li Yi's cheek and blew up the raindrops on the tip of his nose.

The continuous lightning becomes an excellent background, and after the blade, the mighty armor, the fluttering cloak, and the immovable good man.

If Li Weiji had been there, he would have said that this was an epic oil painting.

After two consecutive knife escapes, Li Yi changed his previous decline and held his head high.

Annoyed, the centaur slashed with his sword and slashed, forgetting the pace of the battle on a rainy day.

Forgetting one's strengths is tantamount to ruining one's future.

Li Yi saw the centaur's coming, his right calf exerted force, and the whole person rolled to the left, avoiding the disorganized machete in the blink of an eye, and both legs kicked out of the lower abdomen of the centaur at the same time.

The rain was slippery, and the old horse stumbled.

When the residents of the cage saw this, they all leaned forward.

This person who has been scolding non-stop from the beginning, this person who leads everyone to shout, is rekindling the flame of life at this moment.

Li Yi laughed out loud, and this laughter was extremely arrogant, louder than the rain, louder than the thunder, louder than the roar of the centaur.

The fallen centaur was dragged aside by his companions, he lost his honor, and what awaited him was the death judgment of the clan.

The rain on Finney's ridge cascaded down from the sky and fell heavily on everyone.

Another centaur stood in front of Li Yi.

Red horses, red spears.

The centaur took off all of its armor in order to be lighter and faster in the rain.

On the contrary, Li Yi's hands and feet were chained, he couldn't take off his clothes, his armor was full of water and became heavier than before, and his movements were noticeably slower.

The lightning came, and people and centaurs saw each other's positions at the same time.

The red spear pierced through the layers of water and pointed directly at Li Yi's throat.

Li Yi avoided it, and avoided it easily.

The first time he played Guild Wars, he was impaled in the head by a centaur with a spear, and that strange feeling of depression still lingers to this day. Ever since he learned to roll on his side, he's been practicing dodging spear-piercing attacks in his mind. Today this opportunity has finally arrived. Although the armor limited his speed, and although the spear stabbed straight at him, his reaction was not slow at all, and the moment he heard the sound of the spear breaking through the waves, he crouched down with great speed, and the spear grazed his helmet and shot into the air.

The red centaur missed a blow, his feet were not chaotic, and he ran a few steps quickly, opening up a distance of five positions from Li Yi. With one more lightning bolt, he was sure he would be able to stab this human in the heart.

Lightning was delayed.

The red centaur raised his spear flat, without the slightest slack.

Li Yi adjusted his body and was ready to launch a side roll at any time.

The inhabitants of the cage held their breath, unwilling to miss any possibilities.

The lightning still didn't come, but the rain stopped suddenly.

There was no warning, no gradual process from big to small, and the original waterfall rain disappeared completely.

The rain stopped, the clouds opened, and the moon brightened.

The moonlight is like water, and the red spear is like fire.

Even though Li Yi reacted quickly, his side roll had not yet been fully performed, and the fiery red spear had pierced into his left ribs.

Li Yi was almost provoked into the air, but he stubbornly wrapped two chains around the spear at the same time.

Seeing this, the red centaur threw his spear directly, and before the spear could hit the ground, his hooves had already stepped away.

Ma Mingfeng Xiao Xiao.

The spear landed, and the red centaur collided one after another.

Li Yi vomited blood from his mouth, his hands and feet were torn, and he was on the verge of death.

Turning his head to look at the residents in the cage who were originally full of expectations, Li Yi was a little unwilling, but sighed helplessly: "I'm sorry, I tried my best." ”

He slowly closed his eyes and waited for the butcher's knife.

What he was waiting for was the cry of the phoenix.

What he was waiting for was the heat of the flames.

What he was waiting for was the lovely Cali.

Cali was joined by a dozen Blazing Soldiers, who freed the inhabitants and stuffed three half-dead centaurs into cages.

Kali looked at Li Yi lying on the ground, and gently turned the golden cane, and the staff slowly flowed out soft water waves, which converged into the little witch's hand and condensed into an ice trident.

Holding the trident, Kali touched the position of Li Yi's heart, and after confirming that it was correct, he raised the ice fork and stabbed it hard.

Li Yi originally thought that Cali would save him, but the bright ice fork was very sharp, and he was shocked and stunned. Unexpectedly, after the ice fork stabbed the heart, it immediately turned into a warm current and dispersed to the limbs.

The little witch smiled proudly and helped Li Yi untie the heavy chains.

The warm current swam in his body, the pain was immediately cleared, and every bone joint was indescribably comfortable, Li Yi stood up and bowed to Cali in thanks.

Cali immediately returned the favor.

At the same time, the 33 residents who saw Li Yi fighting hard bowed and saluted and said in unison: "Thank you." Hero. ”

Hero.

Just did what was supposed to be done.

Hero.

It was just five minutes of bravery.

There must be people who fight bloody battles before there is freedom in the world.

May all the heroes of the world be treated with tenderness.
