Sunset, desert, under dead trees.

Ye Tianlong was sitting cross-legged under the tree, holding a piece of wood in his left hand and an extremely sharp knife in his right hand. The blade fell lightly on the wood, the movement was very gentle and light, and the wood gradually emerged under the carving of his blade.

His expression was very focused and engrossed, as if time had stood still, everything around him had nothing to do with him, and he was completely immersed in his own world.

And at this time, not far behind him, there was a third-level assaulter zombie, bowing his back, stretching out a pair of shrunken little hands, stepping out of his strong and powerful feet, just like a velociraptor sneaking up on its prey, quietly approaching Ye Tianlong.

The zombie's half-rotted face, its mouth full of venom opened, its fangs exposed, its eyes revealing a greedy ferocity, looking at the humans who were getting closer and closer, defenseless against it, it seemed to have imagined the super refreshing feeling of biting off the human carotid artery, and the blood in the human veins rushing into its mouth.

Finally, the Raider Zombie had arrived behind Ye Tianlong, and it was only one meter away from Ye Tianlong.

And just when it opened its mouth and was about to bite Ye Tianlong's neck artery fiercely, Ye Tianlong, who was carving wood carvings with a dagger, suddenly couldn't turn his head, and his backhand was a lightning knife behind him.

The dagger flashed with a Force blade, which was no less lethal than a lightsaber, and it had already cut off the zombie's neck in an instant.

The zombie's head flew out, and the headless corpse fell down in a daze.

Ye Tianlong sighed, and said coldly: "I hate it when others disturb me at this time!" ”

After he finished speaking, he dug a pit in the ground and sold the half-carved wood carving, just like selling his own secret.

Then, he stood up and looked at a rock not far away: "Why, how long are you going to hide?" ”

As Ye Tianlong's words fell, a person came out from behind the huge rock, this person was wearing a black cloak, and his whole body was shrouded in the cloak, which turned out to be a shadow.

The shadow smiled and said, "Hey, good friend, we haven't seen each other for a long time." ”

"I don't have any friends!"

Ye Tianlong's expression was always that indifferent, and he refused to admit that the shadow was his friend, but although his voice was as cold as usual, there was a trace of warmth in his eyes.

The shadow's insight is amazing, and he can naturally easily capture the warmth of Ye Tianlong's swollen eyes, and he grinned: "Hehe, I didn't have any friends before, but all of this has changed since we met...... It seems that we are not only the same people, but even the changes in life are the same, don't you say this fate? ”

Ye Tianlong frowned: "How do your words sound weird, what I want to state is that what I like is a woman." ”

The shadow smiled and said, "Don't worry, I'm the same as you at this point, and the fate I'm talking about is the fate of friendship." ”

The shadow said, looked at the low-level zombie that had just been killed by Ye Tianlong not far away, and said: "Hehe, are you still so obsessed with your eldest lady of the Ye family, I thought you were immersed in your family just now, and you didn't even know about the zombie sneak attack." ”

Ye Tianlong didn't want to answer his personal question, so he only said: "It seems that the number of zombies in the Lawless Land has increased recently. ”

Hearing this, the shadow flickered in the depths of his eyes, and he carefully looked at Ye Tianlong's expression and eyes, wanting to see if Ye Tianlong knew anything, and if Ye Tianlong said this, did he have any hints or other meanings?

But this time he disappointed the shadow, he didn't be able to see any clues from Ye Tianlong's cold face this time.

"yes, there has been an increase in zombies recently." The shadow deliberately or unintentionally diverted the topic and asked Ye Tianlong: "Good friend, I haven't seen you for so long, I thought you were back in Zhongzhou, but I didn't expect you to be here, tsk, I saw you just now, the fluctuation of the Force is stronger than before, and it seems that the strength has been raised to level 10?" ”

"Didn't you also raise your strength to level 10?" Ye Tianlong glanced at the shadow, and then asked, "Qiao Zhennan is dead, the Qiao family is down, how are you doing?" ”

When the shadow heard this, he said lightly: "Although my master is dead, there is still a son, and I will follow the son now." ”

Shizi naturally refers to Qiao Zhennan's stepson, Qiao Zi'an.

Ye Tianlong frowned rarely: "Qiao Zhennan is dead, why do you insist on serving others, Qiao Zi'an is not worth your following, why don't you take the opportunity to leave, be a free man, do what you like, and live the life you like, isn't it?" ”

The shadow was silent for a few seconds, then said, "What about you, let you leave the leaf valve now, will you leave?" ”

Ye Tianlong: "No! ”

Shadow: "Because of the prominent position of the leaf valve, there are countless opportunities to advance in the leaf valve?" ”

Ye Tianlong: "No! ”

Shadow: "Because the woman you have a crush on is in the leaf valve?" ”

Ye Tianlong hesitated slightly, but still replied: "No! ”

Shadow: "Why is that?" ”

Ye Tianlong: "I am an orphan, helpless, no relatives and no reason, I grew up in the Ye family, they taught me skills, gave me food, I have lived such a life for more than 20 years, I have never thought of leaving, if I leave now, I don't know where I should go, what to do, it is estimated that if I leave the Ye family, I will be confused." ”

The shadow glanced at Ye Tianlong: "This is also the reason why I continue to serve the prince, just like you, I have never lived for myself, and I don't know what life I want, if I leave my current life, I will be lost, so it is better to simply continue...... Or, one day, find a reason to leave, maybe it's because you're in love with a woman, maybe you have met a career that makes you feel hot, maybe you'll leave then, but not now. ”

Ye Tianlong nodded, and the two fell silent.

The shadow suddenly smiled and said to Ye Tianlong: "Correct, I have already made you a friend, so I am not without relatives and without reason, I am now a person with friends!" ”

Ye Tianlong hesitated: "Me too!" ”

The shadow laughed, obviously this was the first time that Ye Tianlong admitted that they were friends.

Shadow: "It's not early, I'm leaving, lest the world look for me." ”

"Goodbye!"

"Goodbye!"

When the shadow left, Ye Tianlong watched the shadow's back disappear, but he frowned and muttered to himself: "Shadow, the number of zombies in the lawless land has increased recently, and the zombies in many small towns have broken out, all of which have nothing to do with you and Qiao Zi'an, what is your young master doing?" No, I have to find out! ”
