Chapter 15: Escape
After placing grandma in the ground, Yu Tang and Tang Wangdao knelt in front of the tomb and kowtowed to the tombstone three times, "Grandma, I'm leaving, you take care of yourself underneath." With a silent thought in his heart, Yu Tang got up, carried his luggage, and embarked on the road of escape with his parents.
At this moment, the flames of war have burned not far from this town. Although the Shenzhou Continent reacted quickly and mobilized troops, it was still defeated and retreated under the powerful firepower of the well-prepared Eagle Falcon Country, and Yuanyu Town had become a temporary military base in the Shenzhou Continent. When Yu Tang and his party fled, a temporary checkpoint had already appeared on the road. Various armored vehicles and units were moving in the opposite direction to them.
"Yu Tang? Why haven't you left yet?! Before entering the town, a familiar shout reached Yu Tang's ears.
Officer Zou Yu poked his head out of a parked police car on the side of the road.
"Officer Zou, we've been delayed because of a little thing." Yu Tang replied.
"Who are these two......?" Zou Yu's eyes habitually swept Tang Wangdao and his wife.
"They are my parents, and they came back for the New Year, and who knew that this would happen suddenly. We were waiting for the last bus to the neighboring town. Yu Tang replied.
"Oh, okay." Zou Yu replied, just about to get into the police car, and suddenly realized that there seemed to be one person missing from Yu Tang's group.
"Where's your grandmother?" Zou Yu frowned.
She ...... gone, in order not to delay our escape. Yu Tang handed the letter left to him by his grandmother to Zou Yu.
Zou Yu took a cursory glance and sealed the envelope and handed it back to Yu Tang. After experiencing the last incident, he still trusts Yu Tang very much, Yu Tang can't and has no reason to kill his grandmother because of the escape.
"I'll send you out. The current situation is not optimistic, the front line is constantly retreating, martial law is now here, and the cars that were supposed to pick up the last masses have been canceled. Zou Yu lit a cigarette and took a hard puff.
"Thank you, officer!" Tang Wangdao hurriedly thanked him and handed over a good cigarette.
"No, I'm just doing my job." Zou Yu pushed away the cigarettes, put them in a police car, and drove towards the inland city closest to the town.

"Sir, the causal detector shows that the seeds of chaos are moving north. It is already on the road to nearby towns. "In an extremely confidential research institute in the Eagle Falcon Country, a researcher reported to the old man sitting at the top.
"Inform the front, accelerate the speed. The fact that the Seed of Chaos had not moved in one place for a long time means that this man must have been in a small town near the border for a long time, and now that he has finally moved, and the direction is clear, then we need to do something. John, tell me to send a special combat team to cooperate with the agents we have planted in the Shenzhou Continent to carry out a decapitation operation, and try to get rid of the Seed of Chaos before it enters the next city. The old man ordered.
Yu Tang was in the police car at the moment, looking out the window. The distant sky had been turned gray by the smoke. The urgency of war weighed down on him like a tidal wave. He suddenly felt some inexplicable panic in his heart, and faintly he felt that something bad was about to happen. But Yu Tang looked around, Tang Wangdao and Yu Lingping hugged each other and slept in the back seat, and there was nothing unusual about Zou Yu who was driving. Everything looks perfectly normal.
"Maybe I'm overthinking." Yu Tang breathed a long sigh of relief, and just as he wanted to close his eyes, he saw a familiar sign appear in front of him.
"Alert! The world is collapsing at a rapid pace! The user's life may be in danger! Jump to the other timelines now! The tone of the female voice echoing in Yu Tang's ears was even more rapid than last time, Yu Tang instantly became alert, and his state was also seen by Zou Yu.
Zou Yu patted him on the shoulder and asked, "Are you okay Yu Tang?" ”
Yu Tang was shocked by this pat, calmed down at the moment, and said to Zou Yu, "Officer Zou, I'm fine, don't worry about me." ”
"Well, you've never experienced war, it's normal to be a little scared. But you have to calm down, the war is far away from us, don't be nervous. Zou Yu comforted.
"yes, I see." Yu Tang responded, but there was always a trace of uneasiness lingering in his heart, which could not be dissipated. But he couldn't find out where the source was, so he could only close his eyes and take a nap.
A sentry post appeared in the distance.
The police car slowly pulled over, waiting for the soldiers to check it.
"Please show me your ID, thank you." The soldier saluted the police car.
Zou Yu opened the window of the police car, took out his ID card with his left hand and handed it to the soldier, while his right hand habitually touched his pocket and wanted to take out a cigarette.
But Zou Yu suddenly smelled a faint smell of blood.
The smell of blood appeared on the hands of the soldiers.
"It shouldn't be, there is no battle here, how can the soldier's hand be ......" Zou Yu's pupils shrank, and his right hand secretly touched the gun on his waist.
The soldiers also sensed that something was wrong with Zou Yu. The posture of this middle-aged man who was over half a hundred years old was originally very relaxed, but in an instant, he tensed up, and he didn't even grasp the document he handed back to him, but trembled slightly. At the same time, the soldier also smelled the faint smell of blood emanating from his own hands.
"Bang" Zou Yu's police officer card fell to the ground.
"I'll pick it up for you." The soldier smiled at Zou Yu and was just about to bend down.
"Don't move" The soldier saw a black hole with a muzzle pointed at him, Zou Yu, and pulled out his pistol.
"Now slowly squat down and hold your head in your hands!" Zou Yu yelled at the soldiers as he opened the door of the police car. Yu Tang's family was awakened by this roar, and they also opened the car door and came out at the moment, wanting to see the situation.
The soldier squatted down as Zou Yu had ordered, holding his head with both hands.
Zou Yu stepped forward and just wanted to ask the soldier's hands why they smelled of blood, but he was greeted by a dagger with a cold light.
The soldier actually hid a short dagger in his sleeve, and at this moment, when he saw Zou Yu approaching, he saw an opportunity, and his figure catapulted out and stabbed at him.
"Bang!" The gun rang off, but it didn't hit the soldier, and the soldier's flexible body made Zou Yu unsuccessful.
The two got closer and scuffled together. Zou Yu also wanted to aim at the soldiers, but the soldiers were faster than him. In the blink of an eye, the dagger struck Zou Yu again. Taking advantage of Zou Yu's dodge dagger assassination, the soldier grabbed Zou Yu's hand and forcibly changed the direction of the gun. With another knee hit, Zou Yu's pistol was knocked into the distance.
"You're no ordinary soldier! Who are you? Zou Yu's experience is also old, one hit missed, and hand-to-hand combat temporarily lost the upper hand, the pistol was kicked away by this unknown person, when even if he immediately retreated, and the soldiers did not pursue, just stood in place and looked at them, with a hideous expression.
And Yu Lingping and Yu Tang were stunned by what happened between the lightning and flint. Tang Wangdao was a soldier before, so he didn't lose an inch at the first time, but found a baton from the police car and stood in front of Yu Lingping and Yu Tang to protect them.
"It's very acute, Mr. Officer. Originally, as long as you pass the card normally, I can let you die more comfortably. But you don't want to, so don't blame me. The soldier did not answer Zou Yu's question positively, but looked at the dagger in his hand, with a weird smile on the corner of his mouth, and began to talk to himself.
"Could it be...... Is it a falcon person? Yu Tang, you guys go quickly! Also, call the police! Zou Yu yelled at the three of them.
He didn't turn his head, but stared at his opponent closely. This battle-hardened officer realized that the man in front of him was very strong, and if he could not concentrate on the enemy, he would probably die here today. At the moment, the Yu Tang family can only call the police and flee quickly, maybe they can still have a glimmer of life.
"Guy, I know very well what you're calculating, officer, no one can leave here today." The soldier said with a cruel smile, and slowly walked towards Zou Yu.
Thinking of this, Zou Yu instead calmed down, pressed his center of gravity down, and made a set of punches.
And behind him, there was a man who sighed softly.
