Chapter 118: The Devil's Night
A sleepy teenager stretched out on the small wooden bed. The candles were unlit in the room, and a dim orange light came through the window.
Tong Xiaofeng hadn't slept so relaxed for a long time, and somehow he had a bad premonition in his heart. Maybe it's because the meaning of dusk is not very good, that's why he thinks so crankily.
Standing up, he walked out the door, he was alone in the small empty house, and the darkness was the master here. He kept wondering why the noisy little girl hadn't come back today, and walked out of the dilapidated house step by step.
Sitting on the threshold and waiting for people to return, this was an experience he had never experienced, and the orange sky light illuminated his gloomy back.
He didn't know how long he had waited, but he knew that the orange sun had set, the stars were hanging in the night sky, the cool breeze was beginning to rage, and everything was silent in darkness.
The doubts in his heart became heavier and heavier as time passed, and he began to be a little worried, pacing repeatedly in front of the door, and his stiff steps made him look in a bad mood.
Although he was still praying in his heart, it didn't seem to be the result he wanted.
The figure of the old man appeared in the darkness in the distance, and his anxious appearance made his heart more and more worried.
"Has Xiaoxue come back?"
"No, I'm just about to go to your place to find out, what's wrong?"
Coming to him quickly, the old man nodded vigorously, and his panicked look made Tong Xiaofeng's uneasiness even stronger.
"I just heard that today Changyang will take a lot of people to surround a little girl, if it is an ordinary person, I am afraid it is not worth them to be so excited, I am afraid that the little girl is Xiaoxue. ”
Tong Xiaofeng's eyes narrowed, killing intent Ling Ran, he didn't expect Changyang Guild to act so quickly. Looking at the sky, his steps gradually faded away.
The old man knew what Tong Xiaofeng was going to do, and he also understood that this was an impulsive move, but he didn't stop it, because he couldn't think of anyone else who would save such a worthless little girl except Tong Xiaofeng.
The night is woven into a coat, the cold ice replaces the heart, and Tong Xiaofeng once again incarnates as a demon and descends on this cruel ancient city.
......
In a dilapidated low house in an alley, two figures rested in it.
There was no light, only the dim moonlight shone through the window, dispelling the darkness and cold.
Li Lin'an woke up from his slumber and was already covered with a shabby blanket, which looked very dark and covered with white dust.
But when he saw the little girl huddled in the corner and hugged her arms tightly, he felt that this was an incomparably luxurious treatment.
The petite body shivered from time to time, and the closed eyes were still trembling, and I don't know if it was because of the cold or because of nightmares.
Maybe this world is not hopeless, Li Linan looked at Chu Xue and came to such a conclusion.
When he was about to stand up and split the blanket on Chu Xue's body, he found that there was a sharp pain all over his body, the gap between ordinary people and people with abilities was huge after all, if he hadn't had some foundation, I was afraid that he would have died in that alley by now.
After trying to get used to it, he finally stood up, and those who have been soldiers are not afraid of hardship, tiredness, or pain. It wasn't the worst injury he'd ever had.
He tried his best to press his steps, let his shoes contact the ground more gently, and not make a sound, as a former special soldier, this little thing naturally did not bother him.
But when Li Linan slowly covered the blanket on Chu Xue's body, the petite body reacted.
There is no way, Chu Xue experienced such a thing during the day, and naturally she was tense with a string, even if she was asleep, she was still wary of the wind and grass around her.
When her eyes opened, Chu Xue first shrank in shock, and then finally stood up excitedly after seeing it clearly.
"Uncle, you're awake. ”
Li Linan didn't know whether he should be happy or smile bitterly.
He originally planned to leave secretly, after all, he didn't come to the ancient city to play but to have a mission, and it was just an impulse to rescue Chu Xue, calm down, and then naturally knew that this was a reckless act.
But now that Chu Xue has woken up, this makes it a little difficult for him to choose, such a petite child, he doesn't feel at ease to leave her here alone.
Sighing lightly, Li Linan still couldn't leave ruthlessly.
"Little one, where is your home, I'll send you back. ”
A word woke up the person in the dream, Chu Xue found that it was pitch black outside, because she was too tired before, and she took care of Li Lin'an for a long time, so she fell asleep, and at this moment she remembered that there was a teenager in her home waiting for her to return.
"It's over, it's all this time, I need to go back quickly, there are still people waiting for me at home. ”
Hearing this, Li Linan also calmed down, since Chu Xue had a family, he didn't need to worry too much, as long as he sent her back, he could leave and continue to complete his task.
The two figures took advantage of the night to walk out of the alley a little farther. I could vaguely hear Chu Xue start telling her story again, just like when she was with Tong Xiaofeng.
......
The coldness of the night can only be truly experienced by the undead, a corpse lying flat on the ground and losing its vitality, the stars covering the ground as a coffin, and the cold wind howling has become their funeral song.
A demon roared into the sky with a hideous face on the roof, and I don't know how many branches it was, but it got nothing but endless killing.
Tong Xiaofeng felt that he was so useless, he had obviously decided to protect Chu Xue, but he became what he is now. The blood in his hands became thicker and thicker, and the undead who haunted the night accumulated endless resentment, but he still couldn't find the little talker.
Eventually, he set his sights on the very center of the 4th arrondissement.
The old man had mentioned to him that there was a gorgeous palace in the very center of the fourth district, that is, the core of the Changyang Society, and almost all the strong people were located around the palace.
If you want to get the exact news of Chu Xue, it is obviously the best choice there.
But Tong Xiaofeng was a little hesitant, because this was undoubtedly a decision to die.
Now his body was stained with blood, not only from the enemy, but also from his own body, and several wounds were faintly painful.
You must know that he is just a newcomer, he is not rich in combat experience, and his strength is not invincible. Even if it is a miracle that the Divine Skill Body can survive after killing hundreds of Abilities, if it is still deep into the enemy camp in this case, I am afraid that there is really no return.
But in Tong Xiaofeng's opinion, there is no need to choose, because the heart is stinging, the anger is burning, and everything is decided by the heart.
Does the demon need to think about what he does? No, all he needs to do is clench his fists and smash everything that stands in his way.
In the night, Tong Xiaofeng gradually disappeared, leaving only the night and the corpse to continue the funeral.
It's the devil's night, it's just not over yet, and there's still a long time before dawn.
