Chapter 266: A Call for Help (Part 7, Ask for Support!)
Like the Noqi Empire, the other half of this mineral-rich mountain range has a lot of people busy.
Gold mines, silver mines, spirit stone mines, copper mines, etc., large and small are distributed along the huge mountain ranges, or planned to be large-scale, or secretly mined, for amazing profits, a lot of ore is mined, and then put into the market, to obtain huge profits.
There are also many mercenary squads that come to explore or complete tasks, although it may be difficult to meet people and hear people's voices once in a day, but there is no doubt that in terms of the huge space of Sunset Mountain, there are not a few mercenaries and explorers who are active here.
After another day's march, Linsey was still walking through the lush forest.
Suddenly, there was a panicked cry ahead, with deep fear and despair in his voice.
"Help, help me!"
Lin Xi quickly pushed aside the bushes in front of him, like a nimble spirit monkey, and ran towards the place where the voice came from.
In a patch of grass, a middle-aged man in ragged clothes stumbled towards him in a panic.
The man's face was black, he had no shoes under his feet, he was scarred by thorns, and blood flowed. His expression was terrifying, his eyes were desperate, but he was still running with all his might, just to get rid of the group of tigers, wolves, and beasts behind him.
At first, the man's cry for help was only made in despair, and there was no hope of being discovered, after all, in this deserted area, there was no one for half a day. Moreover, even if there are people, they will definitely not save themselves, and the group of tigers and wolves behind him are not good stubble, so he has no intention of being rescued at all.
It's just that the strong desire to survive forces him to move his legs almost mechanically and run forward with all his might, he doesn't want to go back to that dark place, he is in a state of overload all day long, he works day and night, he can't eat or sleep well, and he is often beaten, and he doesn't want to face this group of tigers and wolves behind him, and he will be beaten to death if they catch up.
He even fantasized while running, if a real tiger or hungry wolf appeared, it would be better to pounce on him and bite his throat and die instantly, although he had to bear a painful blow, but it was better than being caught up and suffering inhumane torture!
Tears of despair flowed from the man's eyes as he ran.
He thought of his wife and daughter in the distance, of his elderly blind mother in a hospital bed, and of what he had said five years ago when he came out of that dilapidated and destitute home.
"Girl, wait for my father to come back, and when I come back, I will bring you candy and buy beautiful new clothes. ”
"Wife, you take good care of Niu'er and our mother, and the family will be handed over to you. ”
"Mother, you have to take care of your health, you have to wait for me to come back, my son is not filial and can't accompany my mother's side, but please rest assured that my mother will come back safely, and then I will take you to the city to see a doctor, cure your eyes, let you take a good look at Niu'er, see your son." ”
The bean-sized teardrops were thrown out of a crystal clear trajectory with the man's desperate run, slammed on the blades of grass, shattered, and never recovered.
Just as he could never fulfill his promise to his daughter and mother, he could never return to his hometown, to his familiar home, to hand his daughter candy and new clothes, to beat his mother's back, to comb his wife's hair, and to pluck out the gray hair that had turned gray from overwork.
"Fuck, you dare to run, I'll let you run!"
"Raised by a son of a bitch, when you catch it, you will definitely pull your tendons, pick your skin, and make your life worse than death!"
"The turtle son, you're going to die and run so fast, cut off your legs then, see how you run, this son of a bitch!"
"Damn, catch him and throw him to Wangcai first, let Wangcai be intimate with him once, I heard that Wangcai is in estrus, and let this dog live happily once!"
Behind the man, five strong men with fierce faces and a strong wolf dog were chasing viciously.
The five of them cursed and scolded all the way, their flesh trembled, and there was bloodthirsty longing and playful smiles in their fierce eyes, as if the fleeing man had been caught in their hands, waiting to be humiliated and tortured by them, and then died miserably.
Although they are familiar with this thing, they are by no means unfamiliar with it. Every year, there are miners who want to escape because they can't stand the torture, but no one can get out of their hands. Today, this person ran quite far, and for this reason, they also specially brought a wolf dog, but now it seems that even if this person runs farther, he can't escape their palms.
And the big beast wolf dog spit out a blood-red tongue, its strong body fluttered forward, its white teeth exposed, constantly dripping with saliva and barking loudly, as if it was always reminding the fleeing man that it was always following behind him.
The man was indeed desperate. It has been half an hour of running, but it has exhausted his life's energy, even though he is full of regret and unwillingness, but he can no longer surge up the strength to inject into his body, driving his numb body to run another meter.
Just as he was about to crash into the big tree one step away from him, intending to kill himself rather than be subjected to the inhumane torture of the people behind him, suddenly, a glimmer of light appeared in his dead gray eyes.
A young man with a back as tall and broad as Sunset Mountain appeared in front of him!
"Help me!"
The middle-aged man used his last breath of strength and let out a cry for help.
"Wang, Wang!"
The big wolf dog didn't look at Lin Xi, and pounced on the middle-aged man who fell into a coma on the grass.
"Roar!"
Suddenly, a figure on the grass moved rapidly, and in an instant it reached the big wolfdog, and then kicked it in a flying way. I heard a miserable howl from the wolf dog, and the sturdy body suddenly flew up in the air, crashing directly into the big tree in front of it, his head burst, and his limbs twitched twice and then there was no movement.
"Who are you?" a vicious voice then sounded.
Lin Xi didn't bother to make a sound, walked a few steps, and protected the middle-aged man behind him.
"Boy, you have a little brighter, you are asking for trouble here. ”
"Boss, this kid dares to provoke our Angye family, he has eaten the gall of a bear's heart and a leopard, and he must be broken into ten thousand pieces!"
"That is, even Wangcai was killed by him, so he had to be killed!"
Several people shouted again and again, not taking Lin Xi in their eyes.
In the eyes of the earth overlords in their mountains, Lao Tzu is the sky, the earth, the thunder and lightning, light and heat, and the rest of the people are only on the side, which angers Lao Tzu and provokes the people of the Ang Ye family.
Therefore, these earth overlords didn't bother to think about Lin Xi's identity or the strength he showed.
