Calamity (13)

Dragging his tired body, Tian Yuan walked down the alley, all the way, sometimes turning a corner and turning into another alley. I don't know how many alleys I have crossed and how many turns I have turned. Finally, Tian Yuan stopped in front of a bell tower.

The bell tower is about 20 meters high, and the whole building is composed of hard gray and cream white, which is very harmonious, harmonious and not monotonous. At the top, a white quartz clock is inlaid on the top of the bell tower, with 12 black scales on all sides, but no numerals. There is also a balcony directly below the clock, and the time is exactly 12 o'clock. "Knock-knock-" rang out 12 times in a row.

"This bell tower is so interesting!" Tian Yuan thought to himself, looking up at the bell tower, "Each floor is the same as a residential house, and there are two railings erected on the balcony. Not only that, the windows on each floor are stone rectangular, and the surrounding patterns are randomly protruding, with a gray-black hard texture, plus a faint shadow, giving people an elegant and not luxurious beauty. It's strange that such a dilapidated city has such an exquisite design.

The strange thing is not only that, the top of the bell tower is conical in an angular shape towards the center, until the four sides are close together, turning into a long, long lightning rod, which is almost headless, and seems to pierce the sea of clouds.

Tian Yuan walked up the steps, the door was wooden, and there were cracks everywhere, and he knew that it had been a long time, so he tried the door lightly, "Squeak-" The door was pushed open. It was pitch black inside, and the stairs could be faintly seen by the moonlight shining in from outside.

Not long after he came in, he was drilled into his nostrils by a puff of dust, causing Tian Yuan to sneeze several times.

"Let's sleep in the corridor tonight" So Tian Yuan found the space behind the stairs on the first floor, and suddenly softened on the ground.

However, this terrifying darkness still made Tian Yuan unable to sleep for a long time, and he opened his eyes wide at first, for fear that something would come out of this darkness. Gradually, Tian Yuan's eyes became smaller and smaller. Daze seemed to see his sister, sleeping next to him as usual, as usual. Tian Yuan hugged his hands forward, only to kick up dust on the ground and fly around. I felt that the tip of my nose was a little sore, and I hugged myself tightly with both hands, buried my head in it, and slowly shrank my legs. Slowly, slowly, fell asleep.

Tian Yuan was awakened by a rush of footsteps in the morning, got up, hid behind the stairs and looked forward, and found that it was Edmund. Tian Yuan was about to step forward to say hello, but when he saw the yellow hair, Pete following him, Tian Yuan couldn't help but retract the step he had just taken.

After they had walked for a long time, Tian Yuan slowly and tentatively walked out of the bell tower.

On the street, Tian Yuan was blindly idling, thinking about today's food problem, and unconsciously turned into an alley.

"Hello, little cub"

Tian Yuan was so frightened by the sudden sound that he hurriedly raised his head and found that it was Pete.

Tian Yuan instinctively took a few steps back, "What are you going to do, I don't have anything to eat today"

"I heard that you have a treasure around your neck, can you lend me a look" Pete stretched out his hand with a sly smile on his face and slowly walked towards Tian Yuan. Tian Yuan hurriedly covered his chest, "Don't you come over"

"Hey, I never do it if I can rely on my mouth, why do you always force me to do it" Pete inserted one hand into his yellow hair, straightened his hairstyle, and looked at Tian Yuan with a smirk.

I saw Pete suddenly rush over with a brisk step, and hit Tian Yuan's face with a punch.

Tian Yuan thought to himself, "I don't know how much slower your punch is than Tiger's throwing knife", and then turned sideways, got up and pressed his foot against Pete's knee, grabbed Pete's arm, and pulled it back so hard. Pete fell to the ground at once, and ate a nose of ash.

"Ah, you," Pete said as he fell to the ground.

Then Pete put his hands on the ground and jumped up, "Careless, I didn't expect you to be a good." ”

At this time, I suddenly heard a gunshot from outside the alley. Pete immediately looked around vigilantly, "Not good!" hurriedly ran over, took Tian Yuan's hand, and ran to the other end of the alley.

Tian Yuan didn't know how strong he was, and he wanted to withdraw his hand back.

"Don't move!" Pete shouted solemnly at Tian Yuan. "Don't you know where we've gone? The Belle family's residential area, which is forbidden to us poor people! If we find out, we will be shot immediately!"

"Boss, there's someone there!" As if hearing the death sentence, Pete was so frightened that his hands kept sweating.

"Hurry up, don't let them run!" These sounds made Pete and Tian Yuan even more frightened, and their feet were a little weak.

"Quick!" Pete shouted at Tian Yuan. Then they turned an alley.

"Bang, bang!"

Pete looked around as he ran, "This way!" and then pulled Tian Yuan and turned into an alley.

Tian Yuan was pulled like this, I don't know how many alleys he turned, how many roads he turned.

Suddenly found that the strength in his hand was loosened, and it turned out that Pete stopped. Tian Yuan looked at Pete to see what was going on.

I saw Pete put one hand in his hair and lifted his bangs. sighed "no-road"

As the sound of chasing behind him got closer and closer, Tian Yuan noticed that Pete's hands were sweating more and more. Pete looked around in a panic, and his eyes suddenly fell on a cabinet in the corner of the alley.

By this time, Baylor's men had already arrived here.

"I see it's going into this alley," said a tall, thin man with a black hat.

Another slightly chubby man in black took it out of his arms and grabbed it, "But there's no one here." "I looked around. Then he put the gun back. "How many people were there?"

"Two, one?!" replied the tall, lanky man.

"You didn't see it clearly, forget it. The boss won't blame us for "turning around and leaving."

Tian Yuan and Pete huddled in the darkness, listening to the movement outside. When it was discovered that they were leaving, a hanging heart finally let go.

Tian Yuan said embarrassedly: "How long are you going to hold my hand?"

Pete glanced at Tian Yuan, quickly let go of his hand, and turned his head to the other side. "I was..."

"Why do you want to save me" Tian Yuan lowered his head slightly.

Pete raised his head with a look of disdain: "I just don't want your baby to fall into someone else's hands." ”

Tian Yuan looked at Pete and couldn't help but laugh.

"Wait!" said this, lifting the hearts of Tian Yuan and Pete again.

The tall, thin man in black pulled the gun out of his shirt and forced it into the cabinet in the corner of the alley.

The sound of footsteps was like a knife in the hearts of the two of them. The closer the voice, the tighter the hearts of the two. The tall, thin hand in black slowly reached for the handle of the cabinet door.

"Crunch—"

Tian Yuan and Pete couldn't help but close their eyes tightly in fright.

"Nothing. Wicks, you're thinking too much. The chubby man in black seemed to be a little joking in his words.

Wicks ignored him, just put his hand to his mouth to signal him to be quiet.

Tian Yuan and Pete began to panic, "If he continues to look for this, he will definitely find it." Pete muttered quietly. His trembling voice could also read his uncontrollable fear.

Tian Yuan quietly looked at Pete, and rushed out from behind the box with a sideways turn.

"What are you going to do!" Pete quickly reached out to grab him, but he pounced.

"There, there!" The chubby man in black hurriedly pointed in the direction in which Tian Yuan was running, ready to pull out his gun.

"Bang, bang!" Wicks fired two shots in the direction of Tian Yuan, and the bullets dusted the dirt on Tian Yuan's heel. Tian Yuan immediately knelt on the ground and held his head in his hands, "Don't shoot, don't shoot!"

Wicks walked over, took the handle of the gun, and rammed it into the back of Tian Yuan's head in an instant. With a bang, Tian Yuan was knocked unconscious and fell to the ground. "Take away" said. Wicks wiped the handle of the gun and tucked it into his arms.

Seeing what was happening outside, Pete suddenly slumped to the ground. Looking at Tian Yuan, who was getting farther and farther away, a strange feeling rushed to my heart.

Do you feel relieved, do you feel sorry, do you feel like you've lost your baby, are you curious, you're excited, you're still remorseful?

Helplessly, he watched as Tian Yuan and the gang disappeared into the depths of the alley.
