Chapter 10: To the North

Chapter 10 to the North

The carriage walked along the winding mountain road, passing through the hanging branches on both sides, and with a gust of wind blowing the branches, disturbing the resting birds on it, and flying into the air like a great enemy, Lynch only smiled at this.

As he reached a fork in the road, Lynch thought for a moment and continued walking. He had a destination, and that destination was something that few people wanted to go to, in other words, most of the people who could go were wanted criminals.

It just so happens that Lynch is too, but there is no wanted criminal at such a young age.

Lynch is going to the Dead City not only because of his own identity, but also because of his grandfather Raymond's dying request.

For Lynch, perhaps only the sordid existence in the eyes of the world - the dead city is safe.

As for the two bounty hunters who came to chase him, Lynch didn't waste much thought about it, anyway, it was good that they didn't chase him.

Thinking about the murderous words coming from behind him when he fled, Lynch was inevitably a little complicated, and it was this sentence that hindered the two bounty hunters who came to chase Lynch, and Lynch was able to escape.

The reason why I have a complicated mood is because the person who said this is none other than Mei Ge.

"Stand still, or I'll cut Simon's neck right now. ”

Lynch shook his head, as if he wanted to shake out the good feeling for Mei Ge from his mind, touched his lame leg, and persuaded himself to say in his heart: He was just for this thing.

The immature little face went north and drove back.

After half a day of travel, Lynch saw that the horses were tired, so he stopped to rest for a while. Walking on the mountain road, although he couldn't see the sunset, he also felt that the sky was darkening, and Lynch had to give up the idea of continuing to walk.

Sitting in the carriage, he closed his eyes and meditated, and let the horses gnaw on the branches and grass as they walked, and let out a free cry.

Seeing the horses eating happily, Lynch couldn't help but feel hungry, but there was nothing he could do, only to remember that the food was all in the ring of the Mei Ge.

There was no dry food in the car, and Lynch had a clean breeze on his sleeves, and he hadn't walked out of the mountains for a long time, let alone seen a single person, Lynch couldn't help but wonder if he would starve to death if he didn't go to the dead city.

The horse shook its head, its nostrils thick and panting, as if to say no.

The sky was completely dark, Lynch looked up at the sky, but did not see the appearance of the moon, those dark and shining eyes did not know what emotions were hidden, as if they were going to compete with the night for the height of the black wheel.

From time to time, there are a few crows' cries in the distance, which is particularly terrifying in the deep mountains and old forests where you can't see your fingers.

He was not afraid, for he was accompanied by a horse.

It's just that this horse is going to be abandoned!

Lynch sighed, although he was not a magician, he also knew some tricks about magicians, such as Mei Ge and Hood suddenly appeared in the carriage after fighting, and the only thing he used was to leave a soul mark in the carriage.

Lynch had no doubt that as long as Mei Ge was out of danger, he would not hesitate to pursue him. He had no choice but to abandon the carriage and watch the horses drag the carriage in other directions, and Lynch limped in this strange place.

The trail is rugged and full of stones, and it is difficult for ordinary people to walk, let alone Lynch, who has inconvenient legs.

Pick up a branch at random and use it as a crutch to move slowly.

The night was very quiet, and the quiet could only hear his own wheezing, and the quiet could only hear the rustling of walking.

I don't know how long this trail has been walking, the only thing I know is that Lynch is tired, hastily wiped the sweat between his eyebrows, and rested under a big tree with his back.

It's like leaning back against the wall in that long, narrow and dimly lit alley, staring blankly at the sky above you.

When you're tired of watching, close your eyes and rest!

When a ray of morning light swept across Lynch's quiet face, the veil that covered a pair of smart eyes was lifted, which had not been polluted by the world, so it was extraordinarily dark.

If anyone stood opposite Lynch, they could see their facial features clearly in his eyes, and even a hint of a smile could be seen clearly.

Lynch slowly stood up, stretched his arms and waist comfortably, or aimlessly followed the path, walking very casually, no one restrained Lynch anymore, he went there if he wanted to.

This is true freedom!

The trail is very quiet, and the morning breeze blows and the leaves beside the road tremble.

Some of the coldness was bearable, Lynch wrapped his clothes tightly, shrunk his neck, and walked slowly on the branches.

What was the end of the trail? Lynch didn't think about it, but knew that he only had this way now, and there was no way to turn back.

He walked slowly, but he walked firmly, he walked hard, but he never stopped.

The heavy pounding of the branches on the ground, followed by the rubbing of shoes on the ground, Lynch was clearly exhausted.

Take a small step forward, relying on this branch for most of your weight. That's the only thing Lynch can lean on right now.

In such a secluded path, only these two voices resounded over and over again, but I didn't expect another voice to participate.

Click, the branch is broken!

Plop, Lynch falls!

There was no defense, and it was completely unexpected, but it just happened.

Lynch, who fell to the ground, lay on the ground for a long time, not because he didn't want to get up, but because he really didn't have the strength to get up again.

I have relied on that breath to support until now, once I fall, how can I get up so easily.

What's more, Lynch hadn't eaten since yesterday, and it was difficult for him to stand up again due to hunger and physical exertion.

With a heavy gasp, Lynch turned his back to the blue sky, closed his eyes tiredly, and was drowsy and had no strength to open his eyelids.

"You really can't rely on anything!" is what Lynch thinks now.

He remembered what his grandfather said, what is after dependence? It is dependence, it is the weak, it is the never-ending demon.

The heavy wheezing gradually subsided, and Lynch slept motionless in the path, his consciousness being eroded little by little.

-------

On the other side, Mei Ge held a sword on Simon's neck, and his eyes full of murderous intent looked at the magic scroll in his other hand, he didn't speak, he didn't speak, but looking at his gloomy face, he knew what he wanted to do!

Simon felt the cold touch on his neck, and he didn't dare to move in a strange posture, he didn't dare to guarantee that his head would fall to the ground because of his own movement.

Simon swallowed his saliva and said with some trembling: "Mei Ge, don't mess around, you won't survive if you kill me." ”

Mei Ge naturally knew this, those two archers who were eyeing each other were not vegetarians. It's true that you have a magic scroll, but is it a waste of this precious scroll for these three guys who can't get on the table?

It's a waste to spend on these three guys.

Seeing that Mei Ge was pondering, as if weighing the pros and cons, Simon's eyes flickered and said, "Brother Mei Ge, we only need Hood's corpse, and the little young master of the Earl's Mansion will leave it to you, okay?"

Mei Ge looked at Simon and said, "Really?"

Seeing this, Simon nodded again and again, and said urgently: "Seriously! As long as you let me go, about the matter of the little young master, the three of us brothers will never confide in half a word, just ......"

"Just what?"

Simon looked at Mei Ge with some weakness, and begged for a general expression: "It's just that you can't say to the outside world that Hood was killed by you!?"

Mei Ge snorted coldly, put away his sword and stood up, and said unceremoniously: "Hurry up!"

Hearing this disguised consent, Simon didn't care about Mei Ge's unkindness, and was overjoyed to beckon the two brothers to take Hood's body away.

After Simon left, Mei Ge closed his eyes and sank into his mind, feeling that the soul mark he left was still moving slowly, and when he opened his eyes again, he smiled and said, "Good boy, it's here!"

Mei Ge was not in a hurry to chase after Lynch, but found a secluded place to recuperate for a while.

It seems that Lynch has long been in his pocket, and it doesn't hurt to take it early or late, and in Mei Ge's opinion, Lynch is a child after all, and there is no food in the carriage at all.

In the midst of these barren mountains and mountains, how far can a child run even if he has a carriage?

Thinking to Mei Ge, he couldn't help but smile, as if he saw what kind of expression he would greet himself when he appeared in front of the hungry Lynch?

But the next moment, Mei Ge couldn't laugh, because he couldn't feel his soul imprint!

"Who is it?" Mei Ge roared with a gloomy face.
