Chapter 30: Goodbye, Brother
The daytime battle was tragic and agitated, tens of thousands of corpses were thrown on the battlefield, and both sides beat drums and retreated. Ten years of war, let the question pass on the characteristics of the drums. The corpses thrown on the battlefield, rendered with blood, glowed gloomily in this cold moonlight. In the distance, phosphorus and phosphorus green fires, competing with each other, clusters and clusters, that are the bones of the dead in the previous years, even if they are buried in the ground, after years of precipitation, they are still announcing their existence to the world.
A black shadow, under the cover of dark clouds, sneaked in, if it wasn't for the eyes to see, no one would find out that it was a person, a figure like a floating figure. Skillfully climb over the fence surrounded by thick tree trunks. Follow the most mysterious connections, step over tents one by one.
"Hiss......" the serpent spat out.
Asked the pass to come to the outside of the account quite lightly, and the snake body inside immediately had a sense, and a rapid spitting sound sounded. A slender black shadow sprang out of the tent, deftly coiling around Wen Chuanting's outstretched arm.
Quietly, snoring came and went, and nothing else. A man and a snake hid in the shadows, communicating in a hurry. The mysterious connection skipped the conversation between the two and passed it directly to the minds of the two.
"So, you were arrested when you were traveling abroad?" asked Chuanting, and his thoughts echoed in his heart.
"Hiss ......"
"Where is the Firefox, where is the Guantao tribe?"
"Hiss ......"
"Are the four little ones still okay?"
In the course of the exchange, the thoughts of the two were colliding, but one was still hissing, and it was the clearest words in Wen Chuanting's heart. Ask Chuanting to understand whatever he had to say. It's just repeating, it's confirming.
"You mean that the Pavilion Tao Department moved and returned to the headquarters of the Imperial Capital, as we have seen, the tribe where the Fire Fox is located is only a branch of the Imperial Capital Pavilion Pottery, and they originally wanted to bring the four people such as Candle over to make them unwilling, so they were arrested when they were running with the traveling merchants and sent here. Ask Chuanting to confirm again. I couldn't help but turn my mind in my heart, "It seems that I still know too little about this world, I just thought that the firefox was a medium-sized tribe, but I didn't expect it, it was just a branch of Guantao, and their real name was the Guantao tribe, with different homophones." ”
"It's not four? There are only candles, Zhu Rong and Ju Mang? Where is the thick soil?"
"In the imperial capital, with Firefox?"
"Do you think that Houtu and the fire fox are safe in most of them, so you give up guarding Houtu and be with the three stinky boys?" asked Chuanting to be angry in his heart, but he extinguished it in an instant, it was unnecessary, and it was impossible to be harsh on the snake body, after all, the doppelganger lacked skills, and it was impossible for one person to take care of everyone, especially the four people separated, this is two groups, if the four people are separated, each person has a separate direction, how can he take care of it? Choose the weakest or choose the closer? If you press closeness, Ju Mang is to ask Chuan Ting's blood brother, there is no problem at all in guarding Ju Mang, and if you guard the only woman according to gender, there is nothing wrong with it.
Gently lifted the tent, the pungent stench rushed straight to his mind, and Wen Chuanting suddenly entered the realm of unity, separating the stench, the small tent, crowded with more than ten people, the thin animal skin covered the body, the two of them shared one, and three thin figures curled up in the corner. There was no bedding on the ground, not even a single grass.
Wen Chuanting's nose suddenly soured, and the boiling murderous aura rushed out of his body, he really wanted to kill the dozen or so people in front of him, no matter what, the three of them are always children, even if they don't take care of them, don't let the three of them lie on the ground, and share a piece of animal skin.
"Hey......" sighed helplessly, they are all hard-working people, no one is luckier than anyone, this is a society where people eat people, whoever has a big fist is the truth. There is no family affection to talk about.
The three of them curled up together, able to protect the smallest inside, and asked Chuanting to warm his heart, at least the three of them knew unity and love, which was enough. At the age of the three of them, in that distant memory, they were still children, under the wings of their parents, growing up happily, without the threat of life, without the shortage of food, without the devastation of deceit, and living a life of clothes to reach out and food to open their mouths. Here, children get used to killing early and begin to take responsibility early.
"As long as I'm here, no one can hurt you!" asked Chuanting clenched his fists and swore secretly in his heart.
Gently walked to the corner, the three of them, and reached out to wake up the candle.
"Shh......h
Although he was stopped from speaking, Candle's eyes widened and he silently resisted, he didn't make any movement, and bit his lower lip tightly.
"I'm the eldest brother!" asked Chuan quite helplessly, and the voice drifted into the ears of the candle.
Candle's eyes lit up suddenly, but slowly dimmed. Still staring at Wen Chuanting, his head shook slightly.
"What does this mean?" asked Chuanting very helplessly, not understanding what was going on in the mind of the child, who was no different from the second stunned. Stretch out your hand to wake up the sleeping two, but don't suddenly move the candle of your body to block it.
Wen Chuanting couldn't help but widen his eyes, and the murderous aura was faintly overflowing, and the bear child trembled, but he firmly blocked in front of him. He didn't understand what the bear child meant, so he didn't wake up the two of them, and prevented others from waking them up.
He overlooked one thing, ten years, can make feelings precipitate, can also make memories blurry, when he left the children, Candle was only six years old. What can a six-year-old remember? Ten years from now, will he be able to remember his big brother ten years ago? Even if he remembers it well, it is the same as it was ten years ago.
The near-transparent snake swirled down from Wen Chuanting's arm and crawled to the side of the candle, its cold body touching the candle.
Candle's nervous expression was a little soft, and he still stared at Wen Chuanting without blinking, with vigilance in his eyes.
"Wake them up, keep quiet, and come with me. Wen Chuanting turned his back and walked out of the tent gently. In the sense of the candle, he was mostly absent from beginning to end, and if it were not for what his eyes saw, he would not believe that someone had come and wake him up.
Candle hesitated slightly, choosing to believe the other party. No, it's not that I believe in the other party, but I believe in the snake around me, and I choose to believe that this snake that always accompanies me will not harm me. You must know that many dangers have been resisted by this seemingly weak snake with its thin body.
Gently shaking the two brothers awake, the three of them tiptoed out of the tent, there was no one outside the tent, the candle was a little dazed, and there was confusion in his thoughts, "Maybe there is really no one, it's just that I'm dreaming." ”
Shaking his head, he was about to greet his brother, when he found a figure out of the corner of his eye, standing quietly in the corner, blending into the darkness.
"Is he human? really has no presence. The thought flashed through Candle's heart unconsciously.
Thank you for the wind and rain outside Hedong County and the building!
