Growth Volume Chapter 39: An Unquenchable Flame
The bright moon is in the sky, and the cold light shines on the ground.
The city lord and his party have entered the dense forest thirty zhang deep, among them, Ling'er's physical strength is a little exhausted, and the speed has obviously dropped a lot, at this time, the city lord said to everyone: "Why do you have to hurry up, Leng Mian and Aojie have already stepped forward, I am a little worried!"
"But Ling'er, she-" Chu Zhengchun said, his words nervous, because he was worried about Ling'er.
The city lord glanced at Ling'er, only to find that Ling'er was panting, her forehead was full of sweat, she was running desperately to keep up with the speed, and now she was really tired, her body began to shake like frustration, it seemed that if she ran like this again, she would faint, the city lord thought to himself: "I didn't even take into account the girl's physical condition, so she will faint, but if you don't catch upββ"
After pondering for a moment, the lord said, "Stop for now." β
Immediately, they all stopped, Ling'er also lost consciousness at this time, and her delicate body fell, fortunately, Chu Zhengchun received it in time, Ling'er did not fall to the ground, but fell into Zhengchun's arms, Zhengchun hugged her and sat down, and saw that she couldn't sit steadily, so she kept supporting her, the two at this time, the contact was very intimate, Ling'er's seductive body fragrance also lingered around Zhengchun at this time, bursts of beautiful fragrance hit the nose, Zhengchun blushed, and seemed to be unable to resist the temptation, however, he quickly shook his head and pulled himself back from evil thoughts.
Bizi looked at Ling'er and said with disgust: "It's all her, delay the process, otherwise I'm afraid that I won't arrive early, that kind of soft-handed guy shouldn't have been brought, let alone come to any martial arts school." β
"Isn't it better than you begging to be beaten!" Zhengchun roared at him.
The city lord saw the infighting in the team at this time, and naturally wanted to mediate, when performing the task, the infighting was a fatal injury, and it could easily defeat any team, so this was also unbearable for the city lord, he said: "Shut up, don't hurt and be angry, you have quarreled with yourself before the fight starts, what is it like." β
The city lord spoke, even if they were not convinced, they could only puff up, and they would never stand up and refute it if they did not wait to see the other party. When the two were no longer arguing, the lord of the city began to devise a new strategy, saying, "Now, the girl named Ling'er stays, and there is one person left to take her back. β
"Take her back?
"There's no way around it, after all, right now, there may be enemies lurking in any corner of this forest, and Ling'er can't leave her here alone in her current state. β
"What if we all die in front because of the lack of combat power? If you don't look at this kind of thing carefully, it's just a joke with your life. β
"Are you a man, are you afraid of death?"
"Afraid, why not afraid, you will not be afraid!"
"Why be afraid, you are a man, not to mention that you still have nothing, you have nothing, then you are worthless, since you are worthless, how can you get the bottom money, you have no bottom money, and you are afraid of losing your life, then what can you get in exchange, is there a big meal in this world that you can get without gambling with your life? Boy, I am a city lord, and I already have some glory and wealth, but when I encounter this kind of thing, I am still duty-bound, as for fear, it is definitely not something I should consider. β
"City Lord, I won't believe you if you say this, everyone in the world is willing to die, without exception, so, there is no need to be coy, and I come to perform the task, it is to go into the water, and I don't do anything when I come, just rub some merits, and wait for the future to become a war, that's all. β
After hearing this, the city lord didn't know what to say for a while, he didn't have no point of view to confront the comparison, but he didn't know how to say it to change him, so he began to be silent, no longer speaking, and the surroundings became extremely quiet at this time.
Zhengchun hurriedly said: "Ling'er is not staying, nor is she leaving, then I will carry her away, so that there will be no fewer people, and there will be no need for Ling'er." β
"Zhengchun, if you go behind someone's back, you-" Tomoko said.
"Don't be afraid, Ling'er is very light, and I have good physical strength, don't worry. Zhengchun patted his chest and said.
At this moment, there was a slight swishing sound in the forest around them, and the city lord's eyes moved with the sound, scanning the entire forest.
Except for the city lord, no one else noticed this, and they were unaware of the little movement in the forest, and as time went by, the place they stayed became more and more like a trap.
Tomoko's eyes were on a Zhengchun, and he said, "Okay, if you're tired of carrying it, you can let me carry it." β
"You kid really think, you dream of that kind of good thing. Zhengchun said with a smile, and as he spoke, he raised Ling'er slightly. was about to carry Ling'er on his back, but at this time, the city lord said to him: "You don't have to carry her, you just need to protect her there." β
"Why?"
As soon as the question was asked, there was a loud commotion in the forest, and soon a hundred or so people jumped out of the forest and surrounded them.
This sudden encirclement frightened them, they looked left and right one by one, their faces gradually turned pale, and their nerves tensed at this moment, Zhengchun also understood at this time, why don't you have to carry Ling'er, because the enemy has come.
This is the first time they have done a real task, and it is normal that they can't do it well, so they are messed up, and it is also normal, this time, they all have to rely on the city lord.
Faced with this situation, Bizi's body was a little soft, and his fists were not clenched, and he was soft.
The city lord glanced at them, they were not uniformly dressed, there were various colors, and the knives in their hands were not the same, the difference was in the number of blades and gaps, most of them were blunt knives, very historical, in addition, they had many differences, but although there were many differences, but there was also one place that was the same as the murderer's usual ugly face.
They are also the people of the Hailuo Killing House, there are a hundred of them here, the big black beard with the black mace among them is Wang Tian, he carried the big mace on his shoulder, and the others made way for him, he walked straight towards the city lord, and the city lord was shocked when he saw that it was him, and shouted: "Wang Tian!"
"Wow, I didn't expect to see you here, Zhao Zhongzhi Zhao City Lord. β
"City Lord, does he recognize you?"
"Well, that's natural, we've seen it before, he's also a pineapple, or a bastard, fourteen years ago, he killed Duika, the former city lord of pineapple. β
"Kill the ex, the city lord!" exclaimed Masaharu in surprise, and the rest of the people were even more surprised than him.
"Yo, there are still people who remember that kind of thing, it seems that my prestige has not diminished back then. β
"Don't talk nonsense, you just say, what are you doing here?"
"You ask me what I'm doing? He laughed a few times, "Actually, we were already expecting reinforcements, first soldiers, then a succession of childrenβ"
When the city lord heard the child, he subconsciously thought, "Aojie and cold noodles?"
"I thought it was the bait you used to catch us, so I didn't attack them, but we thought too much, and there was no such thing as bait, so we would have solved them all if we knew it. Wang Tian roared angrily and spit out a large smell of wine, "But it doesn't matter much, anyway, what can a group of miscellaneous soldiers and two children do, anyway, they can't do big things, it is estimated that at this moment, they will all become the souls of Boss Ji's subordinates." β
"Heh, the world is unpredictable, I'm afraid the result is not what you think. β
"Who cares about that, I can't be wrong anyway. He stared at the city lord, and as soon as his thoughts turned, his smile brightened, "But then again, I still care more about you Zhao Zhongzhi." β
"What do I care about? β
"Your head, you can make me appreciate, I haven't made a big single for a long time, if I slaughter you today, my hand, but I will slaughter two officials, so my prestige, I'm afraid it will be resounding all over Jing Kingdom." β
After speaking, he looked up to the sky and laughed, and he said to him: "If you kill this city lord, it will definitely scare everyone in the world, the city lord of pineapple city, where is there anyone who dares to do it, I am afraid that if I don't want to die, I can't sit on the hot bench, and I will whine." β
The city lord listened to the foul words of the group, and he didn't feel at ease, but just stared at Wang Tian and responded happily: "I want you to try, but I'm afraid you don't have that qualification, and you can't afford to lose this capital." β
