The value of life

Xiang Nanxing could see it clearly, because Jiang Liang was less than two meters in front of him at that time.

When the other party was hiding on the ceiling, Xiang Nanxing was about to rush out from the foot of the wall. He knew that a second round of strafing was coming, and he thought to himself that he would at least pull one or two more people to safety anyway. However, at the same time as he broke away from Nangong Qian, the person he had just saved suddenly opened his arms and hugged him tightly, almost knocking him to the ground. Xiang Nanxing could only barely stretch out his hand, and when he felt that he had grabbed an arm, he pulled it hard to his side.

After a round of shooting, although Xiang Nanxing in the smoke couldn't open his eyes, the feeling in his hand told him that the person he caught was at least alive. Just when he was secretly happy in his heart and wanted to save a few more while he was in chaos, with a muffled sound, Jiang Liang appeared in front of him from the sky. As soon as Xiang Nanxing looked up, he saw that he bent down and dragged a fallen man from the ground, carrying it on one shoulder. At first, Xiang Nanxing thought that he was also going to save people, but he didn't expect him to directly turn sideways and squat, shrink his head, and assume a strange posture.

Before he could react, a dense burst of gunfire rang out again. He felt the arm holding him on his shoulder tighten significantly, and the man behind him was dragging him back with all his might, so he had to give up the idea of saving more people, and did his best to pull the person he grabbed to his side. However, right in front of him, Jiang Liang used the person on his shoulder as a shield to stabilize his footing in the rain of bullets. As soon as the gunfire stopped, he threw the man aside as if he had been prepared, and rushed forward in a flash.

By the time the smoke cleared and Xiang Nanxing could finally see the entire battlefield, everything was over.

All the ambushes have been knocked down, but they have paid a heavy price. The two of them and the two moderators were not injured, but the helpers who had temporarily joined the team were almost all wiped out. Among all of them, only the two people who Xiang Nanxing forcibly pulled back in the two rounds of shooting are still alive, but they were also shot, let alone moving forward, if the rescue is not timely, it is very likely to die of excessive blood loss.

"You are the host, you are agile, you are as easy as an adult playing with a child when blocking my fist, you have to be willing to save people, how many people can survive here." Xiang Nanxing's forehead was bruised, "But what did you do just now!" They risked their lives to help you, the down-and-out prince, but instead of saving them, you used his body to block the bullets! Are you worthy of these people of yours? ”

Facing the angry Xiang Nanxing, Jiang Liang was slightly stunned, but the next second he smiled again.

"To endure this naΓ―ve thought is the price you must pay for asking for your help."

He raised his hand and pointed at Yue Ming behind him, the two people who were recuperating at the foot of the wall, Nangong Qian, and finally stopped on Xiang Nanxing.

"You say I didn't save anyone?" He sneered, "These are the people I saved." ”

"Just now we faced nine elite soldiers with guns, nine guns, in a passage that can be completely covered by at most three submachine guns, and they were prepared in advance, but we were in a hurry." Jiang Liang took a step forward, "The time, the place, the people, we don't have an advantage." How are you going to get through this without me? ”

"If it weren't for my smoke grenades, you would have been dead in the first round of strafing."

Xiang Nanxing gritted his teeth: "Meritorious service in the front does not mean that you have done the right thing in the back......"

"Okay, then I'll talk to you about what it means to be 'doing it right.'" Jiang Liang took a big step forward again, and his raised finger was almost a few centimeters in front of Xiang Nanxing's eyes, "The shooting will start when I land, I don't have time to hide by the wall, not to mention that the possibility of being shot by the wall without cover is not ruled out." If I hadn't done that, I had been shot and wounded, I wouldn't have been able to continue fighting. Although the 'Evasion' successfully assassinated their captain, the remaining eight people were all elites, and as long as one or two of them reacted in time, he would inevitably fall into passivity. As for your side, even if there is a brief confusion on the other side, is there any way for you to quickly knock down those people under the interference of the smoke? ”

He turned to Nangong Qian: "Miss Killer, can you do it?" ”

Nangong Qian was silent, this attitude itself was an answer.

"The conclusion is very simple." Jiang Liang's fingers went down and poked at Xiang Nanxing's chest, "If I die, everyone here will die, only if I live, there is hope for this death." In that case, I used a person as a shield, not myself, but the others present, including you! If it were you there, I wouldn't hesitate to drag you up to block the bullets, and you'd be unlucky at best. ”

"You didn't do anything, enjoying the good fortune of surviving, but you came to accuse me of doing something wrong? It's your ......"

Jiang Liangding's fingers on Xiang Nanxing's chest slammed into force, pushing the latter back a few steps one after another. However, Xiang Nanxing's face turned pale and let him push, without the slightest anger to fight back.

"Okay, okay, Xiang Nanxing, I understand, he just cares too much about his partner."

Seeing that the atmosphere was tense, Yue Ming hurriedly stood up and played a round: "The battlefield is still very different from daily life, and the necessary sacrifices are inevitable, even if it makes people sad, there is nothing they can do." What's more, His Royal Highness the Prince still had consideration at that moment just now, you see, ......"

He picked up the corpse that was dragged up by Jiang Liang to block the bullets, and explained: "When I dragged him up just now, my back was facing the direction of the muzzle, so the bullets fell on my back, and I can see that there are several bullet holes here. However, his fatal wound is not here. ”

Yue Ming turned the corpse and revealed a large bloody hole in his chest.

"The real fatal wound was this shot that landed in the heart. The shot pierced directly through the left ventricle and artery, and the injuries were so severe that he died almost instantly. Judging from the orientation of the body, this can only be achieved in the first round of strafing, and it caused massive bleeding at that time, and a lot of blood was lost throughout the body. Therefore, despite all these gunshot wounds in the back, the amount of bleeding is minimal. ”

He stepped forward, patted Xiang Nanxing on the shoulder, and whispered in his ear: "The prince himself is unwilling to say these words, so I have to explain them." At the moment he landed, he didn't really find someone to block the gun. He must have noticed the gunshot wound to the man's chest at that time, and judged that the man was dead, or that he could no longer be saved, so he chose him. If you have to say that he insulted the corpse, then I can't help it, but I selfishly think that there is nothing wrong with the prince's judgment. Figured it out now? ”

After Yue Ming finished the call, he patted Xiang Nanxing's shoulder again, and then turned around and walked behind Jiang Liang, putting his hands behind his waist, like the latter's bodyguard. This move has already silently demonstrated his position.

Jiang Liang looked at Xiang Nanxing coldly, and suddenly asked, "Xiang Nanxing, do you know where this is?" ”

Nangong Qian frowned: "Isn't this the secret passage under the palace?" ”

"No, that's not what he wanted to ask."

Xiang Nanxing finally spoke, but his voice was very dry.

"What he's asking is where we've come to be." Xiang Nanxing said, "The correct answer is: this place should not be far from the exit of the secret passage, and if we go a little further, we can enter the palace." ”

"On the basis?" Jiang Liang's face was still as cold as frost.

"This is the ambush site where the old architect has been hiding so hard, and there are elite soldiers who have never been seen before, and it can be said that they are the ultimate killer weapon. This type of attack is best used when the enemy is slackening, but there is no better way to get the enemy to slack off than to make them think that success is just around the corner. If it were me, I would have placed such an ambush near the exit and launched it at the moment when the other party had just discovered the exit road. ”

Jiang Liang looked at him deeply and nodded slowly, his tense expression softened.

"It seems that the ability to think has been restored." He said, "You analyzed it well, the exit is in front, and I did notice the abnormality when I just discovered the exit, but if it was someone else, it is estimated that I would have died the moment my mind relaxed." ”

He looked at the other end of the passage and frowned: "But speaking of which, the front team and the squadron are here, where are the rear teams?" ”

The back team in his mouth refers to the broken back team composed of four hosts including "Crazy Lan" Xu Ying. Although the ranking is not very high, the team of four hosts is definitely very strong. If they had arrived just in time, perhaps the casualties would have been further reduced.

But on the other hand, they haven't caught up after the battle, which is a bit odd.

"Could it be that something has gone wrong, or has something happened?" Jiang Liang shook his head, "No matter what the situation is, I don't have time to wait for them now, I hope they will fight for themselves and catch up quickly." ”

He turned to Yue Ming: "'Evade', leave a signal, and continue walking." ”

"Yes."

Yue Ming nodded, reached out and took out a small cylinder from his arms and put it on the ground, and after lighting the fire, it burned, emitting a somewhat pungent smell of sulfur. This is the collective signal they agreed upon. In the passage, the burning light may not reach the four people, but the smell can travel along the air. As the most proficient in gunpowder among the hosts, "Rainbow" Wenji's nose is extremely sensitive enough to follow the smell of sulfur.

Of course, that had to be if she was still safe.

Jiang Liang finished explaining the matter and turned to leave, Yue Ming carved an arrow on the wall pointing to the exit, and then followed without looking back. The two injured people naturally could not continue to move, so they could only stay where they were, but fortunately, Xiang Nanxing's handling methods were quite neat, and their lives would not be in danger in a short period of time.

Let's go, stay and stay, there are only two people left here who haven't decided where to go. Nangong Qian saw that Xiang Nanxing turned his head to look at the corpse on the ground again, her face was cloudy, and she couldn't help but reach out and hold his hand. But she suddenly let out a soft "ah", but she was startled by the cold touch of Xiang Nanxing's palm.

"Don't think about it anymore." "You can see that the man was dead before that," she advised. That's no way around it. ”

Xiang Nanxing pursed his lips and shook his head slightly.

"What if he's still alive? What if everyone there is still alive? He said bitterly, "Because I can't refute Jiang Liang's words, Yue Ming gave me this step." Xiaoqian, I can't deny Jiang Liang's set, but that means that even if he really uses a living person to block bullets, there is no way to do it. At that time, no matter how many people I saved, it was temporary, and in the end, I would inevitably die. Only he can solve the crisis once and for all. ”

"So, everything that was done to keep him alive was the right thing."

Xiang Nanxing suddenly punched the wall. There was a terrifying sound as the phalanges collided with the wall, and a few wisps of blood flowed from the abrasion wound on the epidermis, and he didn't seem to feel the slightest pain.

Or rather, it wasn't the pain that was the source of his pain.

"'It's me who is too weak.' He gritted his teeth and said, "That's what he didn't finish." Talking about saving people, saving one is one, but in fact, no one can save it, this is me. He didn't say it, but out of compassion! ”

Xiang Nanxing lowered his head and looked at the corpses all over the ground, gritted his teeth, and looked sad.

Suddenly, he raised his hand and slapped himself hard.

"Let's go, Akane."

The stinging pain on his face seemed to make Xiang Nanxing regain his spirit: "Now is not the time to be down, there are more important things to do." ”

He staggered forward, trying to keep up with the pace of Jiang Liang and the others leaving, and his reluctant appearance fell on Nangong Qian's eyes with a little sadness, which reminded her of Xiang Nanxing who had just survived from the hut in the forest. At that time, he had just experienced the biggest setback in his life, and he doubted his beliefs in this way, regretted his weakness, and did not know what the way out was.

After a long journey, he continued to improve and become stronger, but it was as if he was back in front of the same high walls. It's just that Nangong Qian said confidently about this that day, she believes that Xiang Nanxing will eventually stand up again, because there are some things that can't be killed.

But this time, she looked at Xiang Nanxing's back, and felt like she was watching a fire that was gradually extinguishing.
