Chapter Twenty-Three: Danger is Imminent
"Alright! It's time to go to bed. The rest is not a story for children. ”
The screen cuts to a camellia village on a quiet moonlit night. In this cozy bedroom, the white-haired boy had already fallen into a sweet sleep. Although the girl was already very sleepy, she still pulled herself together and did not let herself fall asleep. And isn't the father who is telling the story at this time Wang Tiancheng!
Obviously, the daughter was not satisfied with Wang Tiancheng's reply, and pouted angrily. But in the face of strong sleepiness, the girl finally fell asleep with great reluctance.
Wang Tiancheng shook his head helplessly with a smile, kissed each other's children's foreheads, pulled up the quilt for them and left the room.
The moon is cold and the stars are cold, and the refreshing wind carries the refreshing fragrance of tea, and the surroundings are rustling. The "night owls" in the fields also felt the call of nature, and under the background of the little fluorescent light, they began another carnival in the middle of the summer night.
Wang Tiancheng came outside the house. Telling my children about the past deeply evoked my own memories. With the flickering of the fireflies in Tanaka, the old things hidden in my heart came to my heart like a cloud of smoke
......
Flowing fireflies in the snowfield
The night was not peaceful, with strong winds dancing along the vast snowy fields along with snowflakes. The river of light composed of ice and fireflies combined with the flying snow flying in the sky gave this innocent land a hazy veil, and also brought a few different kinds of fun to everyone in the camp.
Although the escorts did not like to come into contact with us because of their flamboyance. However, since there was less than a day to reach the destination, in order to celebrate the safe completion of the task before the holiday, the team members also came outside.
For a while, the bonfire, which had been deserted for many days, was lively again. From time to time, there was the sound of pushing cups and changing lamps and laughing in the camp, and it was as if today was a festival.
Wang Tiancheng naturally still can't escape the "clutches". was held in his arms by Ji Luoli, who had a big belly, and was helplessly "ravaged" over and over again.
And Po Tu, who was sitting opposite the bonfire, didn't pay attention to Wang Tiancheng's pitiful "help" gaze. With his head in his hands, he leaned quietly by the carriage in the corner and closed his eyes to recuperate.
Suddenly!For some reason, Po Tu suddenly opened his eyes, and there was an inexplicable hint of shock and hesitation in his eyes. But soon, the emotion in his eyes disappeared, and in exchange for an indifferent look. After that, he broke the ground and summoned Wang Tiancheng out.
Wang Tiancheng didn't notice the change in breaking the ground at this time, but secretly rejoiced that he finally escaped from the "claws".
But soon, Wang Tiancheng felt that something seemed to be wrong. Breaking Earth was leading him up to the snow mound that was about to leave the caravan's sight, and it seemed that he had no intention of stopping.
Wang Tiancheng stopped and said to the groundbreaking in front of him, who was still advancing: "Old guy, what do you want..."
As soon as he was halfway through his words, Wang Tiancheng suddenly stopped. At this moment, he felt a sudden sense of extreme crisis behind him. Unlike in the past, this time it was not the immediate threat that I felt up close, but the fact that something powerful was coming towards me in a long, far away place. And his intuition told him that there was something more powerful than breaking the ground.
A strong sense of crisis is accompanied by panic, and people are breathless. Although Wang Tiancheng was used to this feeling, he couldn't help but be shocked into a cold sweat.
Wang Tiancheng turned his head stiffly and looked at the source of danger. I saw that at the far end, a group of big men dressed in red and carrying a strong murderous aura were rapidly approaching here. And that being more powerful than breaking the ground was in the only sedan chair that was carried by four people.
Feng Xue seemed to have lost its effect in front of this group of murderous bandits, and in the blink of an eye, it advanced hundreds of meters. The Ice Firefly, who was still there, seemed to sense the danger as well, and the "River of Light" instantly scattered with the arrival of the murderous aura. Against the backdrop of the dissipating light and shadow, the blood-colored wolf heads on the banners held by the fanatics became a little more hideous.
Seeing Wang Tiancheng's frightened look, it was already clear that he had broken the ground. He said a little tiredly, "Let's go! Nothing can be done. ”
Wang Tiancheng turned around stiffly, and walked in the direction of breaking the ground with a struggle in his heart. There is no one in the world who is not afraid of death, and he, who has died once, is naturally no exception. He knew that even if he went back, it would not be enough to change anything, but would only lose his surname in vain. But at this moment, all that flashed in Wang Tiancheng's mind was the picture of getting along with Ji Luo.
Can he really just walk away with this selfless warmth? Wang Tiancheng kept asking himself in his heart, and his heart was tormented repeatedly at the fork in the road between fear and conscience. But in the end, conscience finally triumphed over his cowardice. Wang Tiancheng turned around again and walked slowly towards the caravan that was about to face a catastrophe.
Seeing this, Po Ground grabbed Wang Tiancheng's wrist and said, "Where are you going?"
Wang Tiancheng said with a firm look in his eyes: "Let go! I want to go back to save them." ”
"You're going to die. ”
"It is better to die than to be a coward with a clear conscience. ”
syllable
The wind and snow were almost engulfing the sound, and the right side of Wang Tiancheng's face gradually swollen.
Then he broke the ground and picked up Wang Tiancheng's collar and roared at him: "Only the living are worthy of conscience, and the dead have nothing!
Looking at the red and swollen face of the "porcelain doll" in front of him and the state of bowing his head and being silent, Po Tu's original mood eased a little, and he put Wang Tiancheng down, but his hand was still holding him tightly. "Do any more superfluous things, and I'll knock you out. ”
The "old guy" was about to drag Wang Tiancheng forward when he broke the ground, but the voice of the young man who should have been silent came faintly. "Ever since we met, you've told me what a man should look like. Wang Tiancheng raised his head and looked at the broken ground angrily: "I'm asking you now, what kind of man is he who can't even protect a woman and her unborn child! If only by hiding in the corner and watching the weak sacrifice can I get my life alive, then I would rather die now!"
The wind whistled through the blizzard, and the young man in front of him looked so thin in front of this harsh nature. But it was in this young man who was still half red but still had a firm face that broke the ground as if he remembered something. It was the last memory he wanted to face, and under the influence of this memory, his eyes were distracted, and his whole body trembled without being called.
Wang Tiancheng seized this opportunity, broke the ground, and then rushed to the camp like a fast arrow.
......
"Why are the Blood Wolf Bandits here?"
At this moment, everyone in the camp was also aware of the "fangs" that were about to reach out to them. The originally lively atmosphere instantly became solemn.
Chu He asked the team members beside him, "What about the two mercenaries?"
Seeing that the team members next to him were shaking their heads, Chu He's brows did not frown, but soon stretched out again.
It's okay to go! Thinking about it, two people who don't even have Xuan Qi on their bodies can't help much. And if something happened to the outer one here, I'm afraid the Chuyuan Chamber of Commerce would...
Thinking of this, Chu He didn't think much about it. He said to the players next to him, "Leave them alone." The blood wolf bandits are notoriously ferocious, and the leader of the bandits is a powerhouse in the Xuandan Realm. If we run into him, it's over! Everyone hurry up and get into the car, and when we get to the city, we will be safe. ”
The members of the escort team also understood the seriousness of the matter, and they were about to get into the carriage one by one, preparing to flee for their lives. But at this very moment, there was a surprising commotion in the safest part of the camp.
I only heard Chu He shouting angrily: "Zhang Yang, you dare!"
