Sam Sand died, and the valley returned to peace.

Giorno summons a golden experience to help his injured companions heal with ease.

After practice again and again, his movements are as proficient as the most professional surgeon.

The procedure without anesthesia was very painful, but there were so many injuries in the day... Over time, they will become accustomed to nature, and nature will become numb.

In this way, everyone quickly recovered and embarked on the journey again.

Half an hour later...

"Damn... When will this road come to an end? ”

Fugg gripped his already sore legs and grumbled helplessly.

People can be restored to their original state, but they cannot be resurrected after the death of the car.

Without a car as a means of transportation, the remote mountain roads they had chosen to avoid surveillance became a difficulty they could not escape.

The road meandered along the mountain and stretched endlessly into the distance, seemingly never-ending.

The crowd walked slowly along the mountain road for more than half an hour, but they barely climbed a few mountains with their legs.

"Let's work hard..."Li Qing encouraged his companions loudly, and at the same time did not deliberately hide the truth that was a little bad: "I have seen the map, and we estimate that we still have to walk dozens of kilometers to leave this valley. ”

"Tens of kilometers?"

Everyone's expressions were a little bad:

Walking down dozens of kilometers not only consumes a lot of physical strength, but also delays precious offensive time.

The enemy is still eyeing the shadows out of sight, and the longer it drags on, the more dangerous their situation becomes.

"There's no other way." Li Qing spread his hands helplessly: "Let's go forward first, maybe someone will drive by..."

This wishful thinking did not come true.

This remote mountain ring road seems to have been forgotten by the world, and there are no cars passing by it all the time.

Li Qing and the others relied on their legs to climb over the mountains, and I don't know how many mountains they were.

But as far as the eye can see, there are still mountain roads, forests, or rivers, and no matter how far they go, the scenery remains the same, as if they are trapped in this valley forever.

Finally, there was a slight turn for the better.

As the saying goes, "there is no way out of the mountains and rivers, and the willows and flowers are bright and another village", just when Li Qing and others had dispelled their illusions and were ready to honestly complete these dozens of kilometers of mountain roads....

Beside the winding mountain road, among the dense trees, a house suddenly appeared.

The house was a typical European-style country house, and it looked like it was not small, and it was very old.

The house is surrounded by tall and flourishing trees, the wide courtyard is full of wild flowers, the cobblestones on the stone path have been polished smooth and shiny by the years, and the once shiny wooden façade has become mottled and old...

One can see at a glance the splendor of this place, but at the same time, one can also perceive its disappearance at this time.

Of course, none of this is the point.

The point is that there is a car parked in the courtyard, which is in very new condition and clearly usable.

"Got a car?" Fugue's eyes lit up: "Giorno..."

He subconsciously beckoned Giorno to go up and show his professional skills, but Giorno cautiously did not take action.

"Wait, let's see."

Giorno cautiously looked at everything in front of him:

"How can there still be people living in this deep mountain and old forest? Maybe it's going to be the enemy. ”

"Yes..."

Fogg nodded, his expression becoming cautious.

It was because he was so careless that he was almost blown to pieces by Sam Sand.

Everyone hesitated, but Li Qing concentrated and used his physical strength to detect possible enemies in the room.

"There's only one person in the room."

"Judging from the silhouette, he should be a man, walking a little slowly, slightly hunchbacked, and he should not be young."

Li Qing revealed the results of his detection.

And as soon as he had finished speaking, the owner of the house pushed open the door and walked out:

As Li Qing guessed, he was an old man who looked a little old.

He was dressed in the most ordinary plaid shirt, with white sideburns and a slight bow on his back, and his aging skin was dry and rough, but his blue eyes were bright.

From the outside, this is a fairly energetic old man in the countryside.

"Who are you? Why ran to my door! ”

The old man's eyes narrowed a little vigilantly, and there was a faint hostility in his eyes.

This is not surprising: so many young people in strange costumes appear on the doorstep of their house early in the morning, and normal people would be as wary as he is.

And Li Qing and the others did not be polite to him.

Although the age of this old man has reduced the possibility that he is a killer in the science and technology group to a certain extent, but once he was bitten by a snake for ten years and was afraid of the well rope, Li Qing and others had seen too many acting schools along the way, and they had to face everything in the most cautious way.

"Don't pretend!"

Fogg shouted directly, and said half-frightened and half-deceitful:

"How can there be people living in this wilderness? I think you're definitely a member of the tech team too! ”

"Tech group, what tech group?"

The old man pointed to his full head of gray hair, and then to his plain plaid shirt:

"How can I still have anything to do with the word 'technology'?"

"And..."

His temper seemed to be more violent than that of Fogg, and without saying a word, his tone grew agitated:

"My family has lived here for generations, and this valley has been my family's private property since hundreds of years ago."

"What about the wilderness... Is there anything strange that I live on land that I own myself? ”

"It's you..."

As he spoke, the old man seemed to be a little angry:

"One by one, they were dressed indiscriminately, and they broke into my door early in the morning and said something inexplicable."

"What the hell are you trying to do!"

"Is this really your own home?"

Everyone looked at each other with a lingering suspicion in their eyes.

"Nonsense!"

The old man yelled with some annoyance:

"My full name is Fabio del Bruni."

"Go to the nearby villages and towns and inquire yourself, our Bruni family has always been the owner of this valley - this valley is named after our family's surname!"

"That's right..."Li Qing whispered to his companions, "I remember that the map says that this valley is indeed called Bruni Valley. ”

"Del..."

Fogg remembered the "del" in the old man's name, which symbolized the noble blood of the man in the name of the person who cared about the profit:

"If this name is true, then his ancestors are probably as wide as he said."

"What is it called 'if it's true'..."

The old man named Fabio seemed to feel offended:

"I'm a descendant of House Brunie, is there anything doubtful about that?"

"Hmm—" everyone looked at each other.

They find themselves embroiled in a pointless argument.

They don't want to know how powerful the Brunie family used to be, and whether the other party is a descendant of the Brunie family has nothing to do with them at all.

Even, it doesn't matter if the other party is really an enemy.

As long as they were careful not to let the old man have a chance to hurt themselves, they could just drive away in the car regardless of it.

"Mr. Fabio, please forgive us for being rude."

Giorno bowed his head politely, and spoke in a manner far more graceful and appropriate than that of the irascible old man, who claimed to be a descendant of the nobility:

"Truth be told, there's something we want you to help with—"

"Our car broke down in the middle of the road, and there are no villages or passing cars nearby, so..."

"No way!" Only halfway through the words, Fabio interrupted Giorno rudely: "I won't hand over the car to you little thugs of unknown origin!" ”

"Don't get excited."

Giorno made a blank check with an unchanged face, still trying to solve the problem through dialogue:

"Rest assured, we will definitely return it."

"Even if the car is damaged in our hands, we will pay the corresponding cash compensation in the future."

If we were still alive then....

Giorno silently added in his heart.

"Phew!"

"That's a nice thing to say, I think you just want to empty the gloves of the white wolf!"

"I can tell you, my Fabio stuff isn't that easy to handle!"

The irascible old man roared with anger, and his face turned red with anger:

He held the door frame with one hand and put on a posture of going back to the room to get his weapon:

"You want to rob, don't you?"

"I advise you not to act rashly, I have a gun at home!"

"Got a gun?"

Li Qing suddenly asked thoughtlessly:

"Do you really have a gun at home?"

"Is it a shotgun or a pistol?"

"Huh?" Fabio was a little unresponsive: "Pistol, what's wrong?" ”

"It's nothing, I just want to say thank you..."

Li Qing casually threw away his pistol that had run out of bullets, and said very gratefully:

"Mr. Fabio, you showed up just too late."
