Chapter 22: Salvation?
In the dust, there is a man and a woman fighting hard. And besieging them were ten mercenaries dressed in animal skins, each with a fierce look on their faces, and the ghost-headed broadsword in their hands kept waving, as if they were about to cut the two to pieces.
The man was an old man, with gray hair, multiple knife wounds on his body, his long white beard had long been stained red with blood, and his thin body trembled to block the attacks of the mercenaries, and he kept protecting the girls around him.
The girl has a green dress, and being able to see a little green in this boring golden desert is enough to make people pleasing to the eye. However, the mercenaries didn't seem to pity the jade, but attacked the woman frantically.
That pretty face was pure and charming, but at the moment, the slightly immature little face was full of helplessness and anxiety.
"Grandpa, you're all right, or we'll give them the things. The green-dressed's eyes were misty.
"Even if we give it to them now, they won't be able to let us go, don't be stupid. The old man gasped and said hurriedly.
"It's too late to regret it now. A one-armed mercenary sneered, but his eyes were full of tyrannical killing.
This one-armed mercenary is called the Wolf, and he has the strength of the Triple Bronze Body Realm, which is not comparable to the previous Rock Maniac and others. This person has a tyrannical temperament, as soon as he shoots is killing, he often mixes in the desert and encounters people in the past, as long as the strength is not stronger than his own, he will take the goods, known as the one-armed wolf.
The people under the wolf are also some outlaws, and many explorers have a headache when they encounter them, and sometimes they have to spend money to eliminate the disaster, after all, after this desert, they are seriously injured, but they can't get out of the desert.
"Even if the old man dies, he will drag you down. There was a resolute look in the old man's eyes, if he hadn't wanted to protect his granddaughter beside him, he would have fought hard with the group of mercenaries in front of him.
"Old fellow, you have good strength, but with a drag oil bottle, do you still expect to be able to break through? The mercenaries around laughed, and then looked at the girl in the green dress viciously, as if they were going to eat her immediately, and their faces were full of lewd expressions.
The girl was frightened for a while, grandpa did not hesitate to be seriously injured in order to save herself, and her strength was only eight times quenched, although she had some talent, how could she be the opponent of the group of outlaws in front of her. Looking at the expressions on the faces of these mercenaries, if they fall into the hands of this group of mercenaries, it is estimated that even death will become a luxury.
The more the girl thought about it, the more desperate she became, how could she not know that the strength of her grandfather's double bronze body realm, although it was not as good as the wolf, but they couldn't stop it if they wanted to leave. But she couldn't break through on her own, and the wolf seemed to know this, and attacked her desperately, seemingly ruthless, but in fact, he kept his hands and made his grandfather tired.
"Grandpa, you go, even if I die, I won't let myself fall into the hands of these beasts. There was a determination on the girl's face, and this poignant expression made these mercenaries even more crazy.
"The chick is very spicy, and I will take care of you later. The mercenaries around shouted, they could feel that the old man in front of them was almost at the limit, even if he didn't make a move, he wouldn't live long.
Just when the grandfather and grandson were desperate, they suddenly saw a team of sandy eyes driving over in the distance. To be able to have sand eyes, and seven of them were dispatched at one time, it must be a big family, there must be masters in such a team, and it is estimated that there will be a glimmer of life if you ask for help.
"Good granddaughter, grandpa will do his best to send you to that Shayan team, and you will live well alone in the future. A look of determination flashed in the old man's eyes, he could feel that he couldn't do it, but as long as he still had a breath, he would definitely not let his granddaughter be harmed.
"Drink"
The old man shouted loudly, jumped out of the encirclement of ten mercenaries with the girl in the green skirt, and ran desperately towards the team of sand eyes.
Qiu Wolf and the others were also stunned, just now they had been holding a playful attitude, teasing the old man in front of them, but they didn't expect that this old man still had the strength to jump out of their encirclement, but Qiu Wolf also seemed to notice the sand eyes team that was driving over, and immediately changed his expression, and shouted: "It's not good, chase." ”
The corners of the old man's mouth kept overflowing with blood, one hand covered his chest, and the other hand pulled the girl in the green dress to run desperately, but the yellow sand under his feet was too soft, so the speed was not very fast, and he had overdrawn his physical strength, and the mercenaries behind him gradually caught up.
Seeing that there was still a distance of 100 meters, the two found that the Shayan team in front of them was actually detouring.
All this happened in the time when Fan Shou stopped his sand eyes and reported the situation, and when they heard what Yue Yi said, the guards were slightly stunned, and then looked ahead, and sure enough, they saw that the dust had moved at a slow speed.
"Let's take a detour. Seeing the guards jumping down from the sand and waiting for them, Yue Yi said.
He had just entered the edge of the middle of the desert, and Yue Yi didn't want to make trouble as soon as he entered, after all, this trip was commanded by him, and he had to take responsibility. Yue Yi, who used to be a genius general, regarded responsibility as more important than anything else.
Everyone agreed, quite agreeing with Yue Yi's words, and besides, before the trip, the head of the family also ordered that everything was coordinated by Yue Yi's guards, and since Yue Yi had already spoken, then they had nothing to say.
Fu Lie sat on top of the second sand eye, and also nodded, obviously agreeing with Yue Yi's way of dealing with it. Although he had an opinion about Yue Yi before, and they had fought with each other, it was not enough to cause resentment between the two.
The group set off again, but this time they were all cautiously driving the sand and dust from the front to avoid the direction to the left.
When the grandfather and grandson saw that the Shayan team actually took a detour, their faces were immediately filled with desperate expressions again, there was nothing more desperate than seeing a glimmer of hope in a desperate situation, and then being crushed by reality.
"It's useless, others won't save you for no reason, in the middle of this desert, who will start a dispute for no reason, it's not good for both sides. The wolf seemed to notice this situation, breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, and then said viciously.
He has been in the desert for many years, and of course knows a thing or two about these teams. Although he had never seen such a large formation, since they had entered the desert, they must be looking for medicinal herbs or treasures or something like that.
These teams are usually cautious and try to preserve their power in the early stages, because no one knows what will happen to them in the depths of the desert, and fighting from the beginning will do more harm than good to the whole team.
The girl in the green dress looked at the sand-eyed team that was detouring, and smiled sadly, she didn't expect that people today are so cold-blooded, and the world is really cold. But the girl forgot that in this world, there are strife and killing every day, and everyone wants to live.
The weak are not the right party, but the one who can survive is the right one.
The old man didn't seem to give up, and roared with all his strength: "People in front, please save us, we are willing to sacrifice the treasure in our hands." ”
At this time, the old man didn't care about any treasures, it was better than his granddaughter falling into the hands of mercenaries. If the treasure in his hand can save his granddaughter's life, he will not hesitate to offer it at this time.
"Look for death. When the wolf heard the old man's roar, his face sank, and he quickened his pace, and he was about to catch up with the two in front of him.
Seeing this, the old man gritted his teeth, seemed to be holding his breath, and was not speaking, his speed suddenly increased, and he opened up another section in an instant. However, less than ten zhang away from the Shayan team, the old man's footsteps seemed to become heavy, and then with the last strength of his body, he grabbed the green-skirted girl in his hand, and waited for the momentum of the advance to rotate in a circle, throwing the green-dressed girl in the direction of the sand-eyed team's detour.
At the same time as the old man threw the girl in the green dress towards the team of sand eyes, a ghost-headed knife pierced through the old man's back, and the blade was dripping with red blood.
The wolf kicked the old man from behind and pulled out the ghost-headed broadsword. And after his subordinates, he slowly approached the girl in the green dress who was only five feet away from the Shayan team.
"Grandpa"
Because the yellow sand was soft, the girl in the green dress was not injured when she fell. When I looked up, I saw the scene of my grandfather being pierced by the wolf's ghost's head knife, and he shouted heartbreakingly, and his clothes were full of tears.
The girl in the green dress seemed to have given up hope of continuing to escape, completely ignoring the mercenary who had slowly approached, lying in the yellow sand and looking at her fallen grandfather, grief-stricken.
"Hey, stop. Yue Yi sighed, he couldn't do it so indifferently that he could ignore everything.
Since I lost my parents when I was a child, I have never experienced family affection again. Even though this world is cruel, the scene in front of him touched the deepest emotion in Yue Yi's heart.
He used to be a genius general and held great power, but no matter in that world or in this world, it was difficult to find family affection. But it doesn't mean that he is an indifferent person, seeing that the old man still wants to leave the chance of life to the girl in the green dress even if he only has his last breath left, this is the biggest touch to Yue Yi, he doesn't want the old man to sacrifice in vain.
Seeing that the team with sand eyes suddenly stopped, a trace of vague anger flashed in his eyes, and without saying a word, he followed his subordinates and rushed towards the girl in the green skirt, and he was not cautious before, he didn't believe that this team still dared to fight against them at the risk of losing combat power.
For the treasure in the hands of this grandfather and grandson, they chased and killed for a day, how could they return in vain.
"The seventh team, save people, and the rest are on standby. Yue Yi jumped forward and jumped towards the girl in the green dress not far away.
"Look for death. Seeing that there was a team rushing towards them in the sand eyes, led by an extremely young man, the wolf laughed angrily, and then slashed at the girl in the green dress with a knife, at this time the treasure is more important than the beauty.
"Get out. ”
Yue Yi saw that the mercenary in front of him was so bold and reckless, his eyes were sharp, and there was a looming fiery aura in his hand, and he rushed towards everyone without hesitation.
