Chapter 12: It Was You

Tang Shu looked into his eyes, and the whole person felt confused and uneasy. She knows very little about the world, and she has to worry about exposing her daughter's body when she is in the fire camp, and she is always chased and killed by people for no reason outside. And the man in front of her seemed to have a plot against her, Tang Shu didn't know whether to say it or not.

Even if she says she's from another world, will anyone believe her?

Maybe I'll think I'm crazy.

Tang Shu smiled bitterly, since this is the case, it is better to live here in the name of Tang Shu. So she was also firm and looked straight into those eyes, "I am Tang Shu, the illegitimate daughter of Queen Ming Zhen." ”

The man didn't seem to expect her to admit it so happily, and a trace of stunned fluttered across his face like ripples of water. Then he stopped talking, turned his head and continued walking, as if thinking about something, and when his brows were deeply locked, it also made people feel very serious and good-looking.

Since that day, the man has not said anything to her except for necessary exchanges.

Sometimes Tang Shu turned her back to eat, and she could feel the sight, piercing her back like a knife, like a stab in her back. However, when he turned his head to look, his head turned to the side of the sun.

Tang Shu felt that this was a bit tormenting.

After about three or five days, I finally saw the edge of a small city.

Tang Shu was a little happy, although she was not very happy that she was inexplicably back here, but Taiguanguo was the first country she saw here, so it was naturally more cordial, not to mention that Puhe Country was said to have posted her notices everywhere, so it was better to come to Taiguanguo. Therefore, he didn't care whether the man was willing to take care of her, and said happily, "Are we here?" ”

"We have to go through this city again." A faint voice.

Tang Shu covered the inexplicable loss in her heart and continued to ask, "Although there are few people here, there should still be people...... Would you like to take off your black cloth, wouldn't it be weird? ”

Looking at Tang Shu's expectant look, the man's face seemed to soften a little, but the answer was still unquestionable, "Don't pick it." Since no one can see who I am, then no one knows who is the stranger. ”

Seems to make some sense, too?

But Tang Shu's worries seem to be unnecessary...... Because most of the houses here are empty, and even a few people are sick and thin, and many of them don't bother to take care of them.

"W-what's going on?" Tang Shu asked worriedly.

"Because of the war." Four words to the point.

Tang Shu remembers seeing on TV the scenes of the countries that started the wars when she was in the original world. High-rise buildings have been buried in rubble, red bricks and tiles have been shattered, displaced children, refugees who have taken refuge in other countries have lost their lives due to smuggling failures.

And all of this really happened in front of Tang Shu's eyes. She was speechless in shock, and compassion came like a wave, only to be weighed down by an even greater wave of powerlessness.

All that remains, like a sigh, is the damp and weak shores after the tide recedes.

Not far from them was a skinny skinny woman with a small child in her arms. The child was just as skinny, skinny, and at first glance looked like a wooden figure cut into a human form, with only a faint bobbing chest to prove that she was still alive.

Tang Shu suddenly felt tears in her eyes.

She didn't know what force drove her forward. The skinny yellow woman lifted her pitiful, slumped gaze like a dying beast, and the sunlight made her eyes squint for a moment.

"Here you go." That's half a naan. She bought it with the only money she had when she passed by the Desert Inn.

The eyes suddenly flashed with an astonishing frightening light, and the woman, who was so weak, had the strength to snatch the half of the bread from nowhere, and looked around vigilantly like an alert cat. Seeing that no one noticed them, they carefully ate them one bite at a time, and fed the chewed naan to the sleepy child.

After everything was over, she held the child in a kneeling posture and prostrated in front of Tang Shu.

The sun hit her desolate gray hair, and Tang Shu couldn't help but feel sour.

And the man next to her kept watching her quietly. It was as if she was the only person in the world.

Neither of them spoke on the way forward. Tang Shu was still thinking about the woman just now, but the man looked at the quiet dilapidated houses and barren scenery around him a little blankly, and looked at Tang Shu from time to time.

"I'll drop you off at the gates of the city, and someone will come and pick you up." It was the man who started to speak.

Tang Shu, who was suddenly interrupted from his train of thought, was a little confused, although he didn't know who this person was, but he saved his life after all. And in the past nearly a month of getting along, Tang Shu always felt a little more relieved when she saw him for some reason, as if after she came to this strange world alone, in addition to Deputy Wu, someone made her feel a trace of kindness and warmth.

Therefore, when Tang Shu heard the news, an indescribable loss rose in her heart, "Why? ”

His voice was not as mocking as before, and Tang Shu actually felt a little uncomfortable, "I also have other things to do, and I wasted too much time coming out this time." ”

"I have a question for you."

The man raised his eyebrows to look at her, his good-looking eyebrows were a little puzzled, and he let out a soft raised 'um'.

Tang Shu continued, "Have you been following me all the time? ”

The man's eyes deepened.

"Have I seen you anywhere?"

The man's eyes deepened a little. He was about to speak, but he stopped talking in a rare way.

In the midst of the silence, suddenly five or six men suddenly popped out from the corner of a ruined house not far away, all dressed in tatters, each holding a kitchen knife and a wooden stick, but his hands were shaky, and he looked very thin. It's a refugee.

The man at the head looked still strong, but his face was also yellow, and a pair of thief eyes stared directly at Tang Shu, his eyes were gloomy and vicious, "Hand over all the money and food on your body!" Otherwise, you will die here! ”

Tang Shu looked at the scene in front of her and couldn't react. I only heard the man's cold voice beside him, "Get out!" ”

Looking at the mysterious man who was completely different from Fang Cai, Tang Shu couldn't help but give a cold war.

However, the extremely hungry refugees came with the intention of getting it, and when they saw Tang Shu giving a woman food, they had this evil thought. When people are pushed to the extreme, they either go to a dead end, or they have powerful good or bad thoughts.

Their eyes flashed with a green light like a hungry wolf, staring directly at Tang Shu.

Tang Shu didn't want this grumpy murderous mysterious man to hurt them, so he said, "I really don't have anything to give you, and although the person next to me doesn't look particularly strong, killing people is like chopping vegetables, and it may not be good if you make him angry......

The man glanced at her silently.

Tang Shu touched the sweat on her forehead, pretending not to feel the sinister eyes.

"Play dumb." The man's cold snort sounded in his ears.

Why does Tang Shu sound so fierce when he says this......

On the opposite side, several thin men looked at each other like a handful of bones, and the evil wolves in their eyes seemed to be inextinguishable. Suddenly, one of them roared, and the strength of the slimming board didn't come from somewhere, and Tang Shu, who roared, was shocked

"We just need food!" An unrelenting tone, the round eyeballs that protrude from their sockets stared at them longingly.

Tang Shu touched the empty burden, and could only reply helplessly, "We really don't have anything on us, since we can't let you live here, why don't you go to other nearby cities?" ”

The man suddenly went berserk and shouted in a hoarse voice, "Yes! But do you think we don't want to? But because there is too much inflow of refugees, the supply is insufficient! Those of us who didn't make it to the city in time were locked up outside the city! O Emperor and Queen of Earth! You really want us to die!! ”

Tang Shu felt a little shocked, she involuntarily walked over and handed him the only thing left in the package, a civilian dress that she had brought from the barracks. She wanted to give something to these poor people, but Tang Shu only had this one thing.

The thin man seemed a little overwhelmed, and just blankly took what she handed her.

Tang Shu didn't see it, behind him, the man with the red eyes of the thief was red, and he slashed the kitchen knife with a white blade in his hand at Tang Shu's head. His mouth was drooling from the size of his mouth, and his hoarse and terrifyingly elongated voice spilled from his bright red throat, "Kill you and you'll survive!" ”

Tang Shu felt a chill behind her spine.

The crisp friction sound of weapons colliding behind her sounded, and Tang Shu saw the mysterious man who had been watching her quietly suddenly flew over, and his long sword was thrown at the kitchen knife that was approaching Tang Shu with a cold light. However, it was too late. Tang Shu could feel the clear pain on her back, tearing at her skin, and she felt that the blood had begun to spread.

I heard a scream, as if it was the man who was going to kill her just now.

Tang Shu felt that her body was being dragged by gravity and involuntarily slid downward. Can't control yourself......

She fell into an embrace with a faint agarwood fragrance.

Everything in front of me is like a ghost, and it can't be real. It's all blurry, vague of the man in front of him who flew in front of him and cut off his arm with a sword, the blurred faint gray-white sky, only the man in front of him in his arms, and the black mask is very eye-catching.

A gentle gust of wind.

Tang Shu held the black mask in his hand and smiled at him triumphantly, "I still took it down...... It's you......"

"Hmm." The man clearly shed a tear, and when he slipped into his shirt, he could no longer see it.

"Saved me many times."

"Well, it's me."

"What's your name?" Tang Shu smiled at him transparently.

"Gu Jianmo."
