Chapter 198: Substitute for the Dead Ghost

Li Xingyu saw that Ye Tianchen's reaction was a little strange, so he said, "Tianchen, what's wrong with you?"

Ye Tianchen turned around and said, "Have you ever heard of a ghost for the dead?"

Li Xingyu was confused by Ye Tianchen's words, so he asked, "What do you mean?"

"You two are victims. Ye Tianchen then said.

"I don't understand. Li Xingyu frowned, although he had already thought of it, he still forcibly suppressed his inner thoughts.

"There is a legend in the caravan that if there are frequent accidents on that road, then two people will be invited to die, and they will be substituted ghosts for that caravan, they should have died, but because you died for them, they will not have anything to do again. Ye Tianchen said.

Gu Chen frowned, Ye Tianchen didn't believe it, this is true, people at that time were very superstitious, those myths and legends at home have been passed down from generation to generation, and people have this custom.

"It's impossible, dumping, you must be overthinking. Li Xingyu suppressed the panic in his heart and forced a smile.

Ye Tianchen looked at the two brothers and sisters, his fists clenched even tighter, it was really hateful, no matter how he said that these were two lives, he actually used them as substitutes for the dead ghosts!

Ye Tianchen said: "I don't think you need to go back. ”

"Why?" Li Xingyu was surprised.

"You're really lucky, you've come so far, and you still haven't had anything to do, and if you go back safe and sound, it's even more unlucky, because they think that if the ghosts don't die, they will bring death back to the team, and you will be burned. Ye Tianchen said an outrageous thing.

"Impossible..."Li Xingyu remembered the kind smile of the head of the regiment, and his heart began to waver.

Ye Tianchen looked at the two of them and shook his head, "There is no free lunch in this world, you two should have died, but he saved you, which shows that you are still valuable." ”

Li Xingyu didn't speak.

"You are talking nonsense! The regimental commander is so good, he will not abandon us!"

At this time, Li Yu shouted at Ye Tianchen.

Ye Tianchen looked at her and frowned.

This girl looks like she's fifteen or sixteen, right?

Ye Tianchen shook his head and said, "Then I'll prove it to you." ”

Then he slashed open the cargo with a sword.

However, the cargo contained nothing more than a bunch of weeds wrapped in some cotton.

"This is..."Li Xingyu was stupid and stepped forward.

"You don't know?" Ye Tianchen said.

Li Yu looked at the car full of weeds, and instantly went limp.

It was all like the last straw that broke the camel's back.

The faith in the hearts of the two people was destroyed in an instant.

Ye Tianchen looked at them, although there was no expression on his face, his fists were already clenched.

It can be seen that he is very angry, very angry, that group of people is simply too much, and they don't regard these two children as a life at all, but a dispensable cargo, just like their own clothes, throw them away if they want to.

Don't care what they think at all.

"This can't be!" Li Yu muttered to himself.

Ye Tianchen turned around and said, "I'm sorry, I know this is very cruel to you, but it's a fact. ”

Li Xingyu's emotions were not as strong as Li Yu's, but the secretly clenched fists showed his anger.

Anyone who sees this scene is very sad.

Ye Tianchen looked at the two of them and said, "Let's go, from today onwards, I will protect you." ”

Li Xingyu looked at Ye Tianchen and said, "Who can guarantee that you and them are not all the way?"

Ye Tianchen looked at them and said, "Then it's up to you to judge, I won't force you, I will arrange a place for you to live when the time comes." ”

"Why? What's in it for you?" said Li Xingyu.

"Of course it's your value. Ye Tianchen also said this.

Although this sentence sounds cold, it is also the truest word, because it is their value.

"What would you do if we didn't have the value you wanted?" Li Xingyu immediately asked Ye Tianchen this question.

"Then I will protect you too, because for me, as long as you live, it is your greatest value. Ye Tianchen said.

"Why?" asked Li Xingyu.

"Because we are very similar, except that I am lucky, I met a group of good people, and you are different, I don't want my tragedy to happen to someone else, I saved you just to tell myself that I have value in life, at least two people because I live. Ye Tianchen also revealed his heart in front of others for the first time.

All of this came from his own inner thoughts, and whether the other side believed it or not, it was his principle, or rather, his faith.

"In that case, then we'll follow you. Li Xingyu looked at Ye Tianchen.

He could see that Ye Tianchen was not lying, because when he said what he said just now, his eyes looked like his sister.

"I hope you can protect my sister. Li Xingyu said.

Ye Tianchen looked at him and said, "I will protect the two of you." ”

This sentence is categorical and very firm.

Ye Tianchen did not allow the oath he had made to be wrong, let alone let it become an empty word.

"This place is very dangerous, and if I accidentally leave, I hope you can take care of my sister. Li Xingyu said very sincerely.

This was the second time he said this, and Ye Tianchen naturally understood the heaviness and meaning of this sentence.

But he said he wouldn't let any of them have anything.

"Brother, what nonsense are you talking about. Li Yu was a little flustered.

"Fool, I'm just saying it casually. Li Xingyu reached out and rubbed Li Yu's head and said.

Li Yu lowered his head and didn't speak.

Ye Tianchen said: "You guys should rest early." ”

"Aren't you sleeping?" Li Xingyu asked as he watched Ye Tianchen walk away.

"There's got to be a vigil. Ye Tianchen left after saying this.

Li Xingyu looked at the back of Ye Tianchen leaving, and didn't say a word.

Then he fell asleep with a deep sense of fatigue.

Early the next morning.

Li Xingyu slowly opened his eyes, Li Yu next to him was still asleep, he immediately got up and looked in the direction where Ye Tianchen was, and found that Ye Tianchen was sitting there alone and watching the east gradually turn white.

Li Xingyu immediately walked over and said, "Are you okay?"

Ye Tianchen got up and said, "Now that you're awake, it's time to set off." ”

"I'm afraid not right now. Li Xingyu said, and then looked at Li Yu, who was still asleep.

Ye Tianchen immediately nodded and said, "Then wait a minute." ”

"By the way, can I ask you a question?" Li Xingyu suddenly asked.

"You say. Ye Tianchen nodded.

"Your family too..."Li Xingyu wanted to speak and stopped.

"They're still alive, but they shouldn't know me anymore, but it doesn't matter. Ye Tianchen said.

Li Xingyu nodded, and didn't speak anymore, he knew that every family had a scripture that was difficult to read, and Ye Tianchen was naturally not a smooth sailing person.
