And what Qin Xiaoyu felt was endless darkness and cold. She seemed to forget about Keith, Naiyin, and Remnant Wing who were around the two of them, and just tugged on Li Ling's arm, constantly whimpering: "That...... Is that...... Forerunner ......" Qin Xiaoyu trembled, his teeth constantly fighting. "It's ...... It was ...... These ......" she said couldn't go on.

"Yes, Xiao Yu! I see it. Li Ling held Qin Xiaoyu's arm hard so that it no longer trembled.

He has seen a lot of death, his father lying on the hospital bed, and Hou Can, who had no choice but to give up his life, all made him unforgettable.

But now, when a savage beast threw a human head at his feet like a trophy, Li Ling's heart was only anger and humiliation.

Countless times, when Li Ling faced pain and even death threats, he would remember his father's last advice: "You have to remember, don't cry, don't be sad...... It's not a big deal, and although it's a bit impersonal, fate can't be avoided. ”

It is so simple that there is no embellishment, no sensational language, but it is as majestic as a mountain.

Now, he was going to pass on the same words to Qin Xiaoyu and to this person who planned to protect with his life. He thought for a moment and said softly, "Relax, Xiao Yu." It's not a big deal, it's a bit cruel, but people always die. ”

"But ......" Qin Xiaoyu still has something to say, maybe the tragedy in front of him and the ordinary death can be compared? How can an otherworldly, alien killing, with conspiracy and humiliation, be easily forgiven?

But she saw Li Ling's smiling eyes, and saw his doting and solemn eyes like her rare parents. She was slightly distracted, and forgot what she was about to say.

"It's night, it's time to rest!" Li Ling took Qin Xiaoyu's hand like a child and walked towards the temporary residence they had built. He didn't care about the surprised gaze behind him or the head stuck in the grass.

Soon, there was a grunt behind him, and Li Ling thought to himself that maybe those guys were discussing how to deal with or humiliate himself and kiss Xiao Yu. But he doesn't care anymore, anyway......

"These brutes will soon have to pay for their crimes!" When he got into the hut, Li Ling said the words that were circling in his heart.

"Well, I believe in you, Li Ling!" Qin Xiaoyu nodded obediently, as if he had recovered from the fear just now. "You've been like that since I've known you, always speaking only after you've thought it through. But have you ever thought that it's really annoying to always be appetizing? ”

Li Ling smiled, and his mood relaxed a little with Xiao Yu's joke.

"If you have any plans, wake me up. I'm a little sleepy, Li Ling! Qin Xiaoyu said softly.

Li Ling was a little happy. He was thinking about spending some time to lull Xiao Yu to sleep, but he didn't expect her to fall asleep so quickly. But he was a little sad, thinking that it must be because Xiao Yu's mood fluctuated too much that he was so tired.

Qin Xiaoyu hugged Li Ling's arm tightly, and the sound of breathing gradually became heavy. "Don't do stupid things......" Before falling asleep, Qin Xiaoyu muttered in a daze.

Maybe it was because he was afraid that he woke her up, maybe because he couldn't do it, Li Ling didn't answer, just sat in the dark, silent.

There is no moon on Sirte, and there are no fingers in the hut. But even with his eyes closed, Li Ling could imagine that Xiao Yu's beautiful face must be a little pale at the moment, and his slender eyebrows must be tightly frowned.

……

Li Ling felt that he had to take action now. When Qin Xiaoyu was asleep, he planned to completely let go of his hands and feet and slash those aliens who killed humans and planned to imprison him and Qin Xiaoyu.

He didn't know if it was Qin Xiaoyu's so-called stupidity, but he knew that if he failed, the consequences would be unbearable for him and Qin Xiaoyu. He didn't even dare to imagine how Qin Xiaoyu would face those three behaving aliens, and how he would bear the loneliness and unknown that followed......

He didn't dare to think about it.

"What should I do?" After a long time, Li Ling asked himself softly. In the silence of the night, the voice was exceptionally clear, but fortunately it didn't wake Xiao Yu up. "Although Xiao Yu is very good and strong enough, she has never despised anyone because of her beauty or family background, and she is the most perfect girl I have ever seen. But at the end of the day, she's still a little girl who hasn't grown up! Li Ling thought in his heart.

Saying this old-fashioned sentence is not how conceited Li Ling is. It's that he knows exactly when he grew up.

Growing up sometimes takes a long, even a lifetime. Sometimes, it can be done in an instant. On the day his father finished the last sentence with all his strength and died, Li Ling felt that he had grown up and was no longer the carefree and willful child on the school playground.

In the sympathetic or pitiful gazes of the people around him, Li Ling clearly knew what he wanted and what he should do. Because of this, he resolutely rejected many well-intentioned proposals and insisted on choosing the same path and ambitions as his father...... Eat in large gulps, just to grow faster; Training hard to live up to some people's expectations. In the end, he became the youngest soldier king, and he was also fortunate to get acquainted with Qin Xiaoyu.

Thinking of this, Li Ling began to blame himself. If it weren't for her own company and care, Qin Xiaoyu might have transformed into a supporter with a real heart like a stone, maybe the two of them had already begun to discuss how to start a revenge and escape operation, how could she be so easily frightened?

Li Ling looked down with some distress, and couldn't see his five fingers. But he could clearly hear Qin Xiaoyu's subtle breathing, and he could feel a warm snort coming from the back of his hand.

The next moment, he began to blame himself again, wondering if he was a little hard-hearted? Maybe...... Now curled up beside herself, Xiao Yu, who fell asleep with panic, is what a little girl should look like.

But in the end, Li Ling figured everything out - no matter what, he was no longer the ignorant teenager.

He also longed to lie comfortably for the night, to relax his exhausted body. I longed to accompany Qin Xiaoyu more until the sun of the Sirte Star shone on the earth and the air became warm.

But the reality is always cruel, and since Naine has restricted their freedom and gathered two ruthless partners, they must have their own plans.

Maybe by the time it gets light, it'll be too late!

Whether it was for himself, for Xiao Yu, or for his mission as a supporter, or even for those pioneers he had never met, Li Ling vowed to execute these evil guys, and even kill all the beasts in this world who harmed humans.

……

Li Ling wanted to leave Xiao Yu with some comforting words, or justify why he left her behind and went on a risk alone. But he felt that he should give all his courage and not leave room for himself.

What's more, in case he really never returns, he doesn't want Xiao Yu to be troubled and painful by his so-called last words.

Gently pulling his palm out of Xiao Yu's arms, Li Ling covered Xiao Yu with the blanket on his body and took out the dagger in the package.

"One life for another!" He whispered and walked out of the hut.

The night was thick and chilly.

Fortunately, the sky was full of stars, much brighter than the inky black hut.

The moment Li Ling walked out of the hut, he found the figure guarding not far away—with rough lines and gray skin. There was no doubt that Si Daobi was under the order of Naiyin and was in charge of monitoring himself and Qin Xiaoyu.

Based on his usual observations, Li Ling felt that unless Nai Yin asked for it, this monster with big hands and long arms would never let down his guard until he died.

Li Ling hoped that he could kill it quietly, even though it was almost impossible. The other party is a large, strong, savage creature.

What's worse is that it has already spotted Li Ling who has crept out and carefully propped up its two big hands on the ground.

In order not to alarm Qin Xiaoyu, Li Ling planned to lead the battlefield a little farther away. He walked slowly towards Staby.

Under the starlight, Si Daobi stayed there motionless, reaching out and scratching his back, as if he was a little confused by Li Ling's behavior. Maybe the order it received was to prevent itself and Qin Xiaoyu from escaping while it was dark, not to prevent itself from rushing up and killing it.

Poor this rude and ignorant beast is unsuspecting of this.

10 meters, 5 meters......

Although he moved forward cautiously, Li Ling never stopped his steps. By the starlight, he could already see Staby's appearance clearly. The rough, knife-and-axe features squeezed together angrily.

When Li Ling took a step again, Si Daobi's body sank. It seems that the beast has smelled danger and is ready to attack.

Li Ling did not continue to move forward, but first looked at the surrounding environment and looked for all favorable conditions.

Two feet away from him, there was a big tree, and maybe at a critical time, he could hide behind it, or even quickly climb to the big tree. Sadly, there is still some gravel under the tree. He still remembered the scene when he was almost smashed by the stump with a stone, and Steobie's hand must have been much stronger than the stump.

No way, he wished the meteorite dagger he held tightly in his hand was sharp enough to easily cut the monster's thick neck or plunge into its heart.

Without thinking too much, Li Ling took a step and continued to walk forward.

Stepby's throat let out a low, hoarse roar, and his arms bent and he bent down.

Before it could leap high or roar to warn its companions, Li Ling lunged forward. As it staggered, the dagger in Li Ling's hand slashed across Si Daobi's neck like lightning.
