Chapter 37: Living is King
"Boss, it's a mother and son." A man in gray reported.
Yan Ran hugged Yin Zimeng and trembled and fell to the ground, her palms were sweaty, she was gambling, betting that these killers would not bother to kill ants like them.
"Have you ever seen a handsome boy pass by with a black-clad attendant?" The hoarse voice was very low, word by word, pressing on people's hearts, making people breathless.
Yan Ran trembled, thought for a while, and said tremblingly, "Morning...... When...... See...... I've seen it! β
When those people heard this, they were obviously a little excited, "In that direction did they go?" β
"In the morning, we ...... When the temple is broken, I see ...... They rode by, heading, in the direction of the country...... Go. Yan Ran's words were intermittent, out of tune, and frightened.
Yin Zimeng nestled in Yan Ran's arms, trying to suppress her crying, her black and white eyes were watery, and she looked at these killers pitifully.
The scar man glanced at Yan Ran and Yin Zimeng, with a heavy killing intent in his indifferent eyes.
Yan Ran's heart jumped, Nima, is this still going to be killed?!
Yan Ran just wanted to jump up, when a pretty voice suddenly sounded: "Master, forget it." β
Yan Ran held back for the time being, waiting for the scarred man's reaction.
"Let's go." The hoarse voice sounded again, and then the wind stirred.
Yin Zimeng cried as she watched the gray-clothed men get back on the horse, turn the horse's head, and leave at a gallop, and disappeared in a blink of an eye.
Yan Ran took a breath and sat down heavily, covered in a cold sweat, if it wasn't for the pretty voice to stop it just now, she and Yin Zimeng would really be fierce! These people are real killers, and they are not worth many times more than those soldiers they met before!
"Mengmeng, how are you?" Yan Ran asked the child in his arms, looking worried.
Yin Zimeng raised a smile, her round eyes flashed with excitement, "Auntie, Mengmeng is fine." The cute acting skills just now are okay. β
Yan Ran touched his head, "Meng Meng is so smart, great." β
Yan Ran has always felt that being able to bend and stretch is a big husband, as long as he can survive, it doesn't matter if he is small and low.
However, Yan Ran felt helpless again, helpless as a weak person! That kind of helplessness that life is not in your own hands! Thinking of this, Yan Ran secretly decided in her heart that she must become stronger, she must protect herself, she must protect this child, this kind of groveling, small and low-level thing, she never wants to do it a second time!
Yin Zimeng suddenly put away her smile and said heavily, "Auntie doesn't remember, you said that as long as there is a life, nothing else matters." β
The movements in Yan Ran's hands were stagnant, as long as there was a life, nothing else mattered.
Once upon a time, a lonely little girl cowered alone on a street corner in the dark night, hungry and cold, and wild dogs for food, at that time, the little girl had only one thought in her mind, as long as there was life, nothing else mattered.
Yes, as long as you live, you can see the thousands of turns of life, and you will know that the pain that you once thought was unbearable will pass. To live is to be a king.
Afraid of being caught up by those killers again, Yan Cha arranged it a little, and then pulled Yin Zimeng to change directions and made a big detour to Cloud City.
Those killers are too dangerous, and if they find out that she lied to them, they won't let her go!
Fortunately, the place they are in now is originally a complex area with complex terrain, and it is no problem to avoid those killers with their hearts.
When they walked to a valley, Yan Ran led Yin Zimeng into without hesitation.
She escaped from Tongzhou and left a mark for the little fox Qibao along the way, but the horse of Dongfang Ming was too fast, so she had to stop and wait for her little fox.
When they walked around the woods for a long time and returned to the valley, Yan Ran was shocked to realize that this valley was not ordinary, and the valley mouth was set up by someone, but the man had no malicious intentions, just to prevent outsiders from entering the valley.
Yan Ran became excited all of a sudden, with her experience in the bloody novels she read in modern times, there must be a hidden master living in this valley, thinking of this, Yan Ran held Yin Zimeng's hand tightly: "Meng Meng, we must enter this valley." β
She had a small calculation in her heart, since this formation would not casually ask for people's lives, the people living in it should be kind, not the kind of masters who careless about people's lives. Moreover, in Yan Ran's shallow cognition, the master should naturally be extraordinary, strong and powerful with a supernatural medical skill, in the side of this kind of master, then they must be safer, and it is more reassuring to wait for Qibao here.
After making up his mind, Yan Ran took Yin Zimeng's hand again and entered the battle.
This time, Yan Ran was not careless, and after stepping in, he carefully observed, and soon found that this was a big gossip array with two yin and yang arrays, which complemented each other, but there was no murderous aura, so Yan Ran had the opportunity to break the formation one by one.
Yin Zimeng curiously followed Yan Ran around, her eyes fell on Yan Ran's hand, her heart was filled with a sweet feeling, it was so good to be held by her aunt like this!
After half an hour of tossing, Yan Ran only felt that the eyes suddenly opened up, the lush forests and fog barriers that blocked them disappeared, and under the sun, flowers were blooming, grass was abundant, and colorful butterflies were fluttering...... Yan Ran has no doubt that this is a paradise!
It is worthy of being a place for high-ranking people to live in seclusion, and the environment is really good! Yan Ran sighed in his heart, and led Yin Zimeng to the valley with a little excitement.
However, Yan Ran was soon disappointed, and they did find a few grass houses, but the thick dust clearly told her that this place had been uninhabited for a long time, and there was a lonely tomb behind the house, and there was not even a monument.
"It seems that we came a few years late, and the masters are already dead." Yan Ran looked at the tomb and sighed.
"Auntie, the environment here is so good, should we live here first?" Yin Zimeng seemed to like this place very much, and looked around excitedly.
Indeed, in autumn, the flowers are still in full bloom here, the grass is green, the trees are shady, and the environment is so good.
"Well, let's stay, we'll wait here for Shippo-chan!" Yan Ran quickly made a decision, "However, let's go in first now and see if there are any good things." Yan Ran smiled and said, master, will there be some martial arts cheats, treasures or something?
However, after a little inspection, she was disappointed, and there was nothing but a dusty book of poems that fell into the cracks behind her desk.
Yan Ran looked at it carefully and saw it again, and then determined that this was a bland poetry collection, and threw it aside, but Yin Zimeng picked it up and looked at it, and then exclaimed: "This poem is really well written." β
Yan Ran slandered in his heart, the poem is well written, and it is useless, and it can't be eaten as food. However, Yin Zimeng carefully wiped the poetry book clean, and then put it away.
Yan Ran, who didn't find the treasure, was very disappointed, and pulled Yin Zimeng to start cleaning up.
After finally cleaning up, the two of them lay down on the floor to rest in sweat, but before they could breathe, Yan Ran felt an unusual vibration on the floor.
Yan Ran turned over, sat up, and listened intently, the wind outside was slow, but she still felt a different fluctuation in the air, someone was fighting!
"Auntie, what's wrong?" Yin Zimeng looked at Yan Ran's guarded appearance, and asked in a low voice.
Yan Ran made a silent gesture and pulled Yin Zimeng out of the house cautiously, the sound of the fight came from the forest under the cliff on the east side, and the movement was still very loud.
Yan Ran wanted to avoid it, but after only a few steps, he heard an ape cry from the forest, and that roar with erection of anger swept up a hurricane, and a large flock of birds inhabiting the forest flapped their wings and fled frantically.
With that hurricane, Yan Ran smelled a strange fishy smell, and his steps to leave paused violently.
That's the smell of rattlesnakes! So, it's the apes and rattlesnakes who fight in the forest?
Yin Zimeng saw Yan Ran stop suddenly, puzzled: "Auntie, aren't we leaving?" β
Yan Ran squatted in front of Yin Zimeng, "You find a place to hide, auntie go over and take a look, remember, don't come out." β
Yin Zimeng obediently hid behind a boulder and poked out half of her head, "Auntie, be careful." β
Yan Ran nodded, and then cautiously sneaked towards the forest.
Many small beasts hidden in the forest fled in a panic, and Yan Ran saw two rabbits crashing into the trunk of a tree and fainting along the way, thinking that there would be rabbit meat to eat for a while.
The ape's cries became more and more frequent, and Yan Ran could feel its anxious anger from the sound of hooves, and the fishy smell of rattlesnakes became stronger and stronger.
Finallyβ
The moving scene was presented in front of Yan Ran, three rattlesnakes thicker than her waist, and a white ape more than two meters tall were entangled together, and, obviously, the white ape had fallen into the wind, its limbs were tightly entangled by two rattlesnakes, and the third rattlesnake was tightly wrapped around it, no matter how it waved and struggled, it couldn't get rid of the three snakes, the snow-white hair was dirty, it kept roaring, venting its anger, but it couldn't change the status quo of being bound, two of the rattlesnakes opened their bloody mouths, Biting its back, the white ape let out a terrible roar......
Around them, within a radius of tens of meters, all the flowers and trees turned into powder, and Yan Ran wanted to get close but didn't even have a place to hide.
Just as Yan Ran wanted to retreat, a rattlesnake suddenly spotted Yan Ran.
"Hiss" twice, the rattlesnake's green eyes glared at Yan Ran, and the long snake letter slipped out of its sharp mouth, and the sharp fangs dripping with fishy venom downward.
Yan Ran's eyes flashed, she was targeted!
