Taeong and Iron Head are back, and with them comes bad news.

"Boss, Chen En......" Tai Meng strode into the courtyard, and was about to tell Zhang Yuan what he had seen and heard in the city, but before Chen Enxu could say three words, he saw Chen Qianyun, who was also standing there, and quickly swallowed back half of the words, "That, Shicheng issued a reward order, saying that the person who captured the boss alive would reward you with a thousand gold ear coins." Then, the person who brought Miss Chen back safely will be rewarded with 10,000 gold ear coins. ”

After listening to Tai Meng's speech, Zhang Yuan closed his eyes and didn't say a word, his chest rising and falling with his long breathing.

"Why, didn't my dad promise to let us go?" Chen Qianyun asked first, his tone was not unbelievable, but it was a little intense.

But even though the two of them behaved very differently, they both knew that what Taemon said was the truth they had to face. After another two seconds of silence, Zhang Yuan suddenly opened his eyes and said, "I will go to Chen Enxu and turn myself in." ”

After Zhang Yuan finished speaking, he didn't care what the other people reacted, he raised his feet alone and walked towards the courtyard outside, Tai Meng saw this and hurriedly shouted behind him: "Boss, you can't go, if you go, you won't be able to come back." ”

"But if I don't go, won't they come to me? Don't forget, Fu Yun is in their hands now, and that guy has no reason to help us keep a secret. Zhang Yuan stopped, answered Tai Meng's words without looking back, and with that, he continued to walk outside.

Someone stood up again and stopped Zhang Yuan, Zhang Yuan bowed his head slightly, looking at Chen Qianyun who was stopped in front of him.

"You can't go." Chen Qianyun looked at Zhang Yuan's eyes with a resolute gaze, even though she was half a head shorter than Zhang Yuan, but the sense of oppression in her eyes forced the latter to look away.

Zhang Yuan sighed and said, "You heard what I just said." Now your father has named me to offer a reward, and perhaps tomorrow his private soldiers will appear at our door. But this Grange, where our Thai family is housed, should not have suffered such an unwarranted disaster. ”

"Hmph, don't kid yourself here, that's not what you really think at all." Chen Qianyun shook his head and denied.

"That's what I think, I can't say anything that will bring everybody in! Whew, listen, this is my own business, it starts with me, and it should end up with me, as long as I go, there is no need to implicate the innocent. ”

As Zhang Yuan spoke, he stretched out his hand to support Chen Qianyun's shoulder and pushed her aside, while he raised his foot and stepped on the steps in front of the threshold.

However, Chen Qianyun did not give up, she walked quickly in front of Zhang Yuan, stood at the door again, and completely blocked Zhang Yuan's way with open arms.

"What kind of hero do you have to pretend to be here!" Chen Qianyun stared at Zhang Yuan's face indignantly, "You don't think so in your heart at all, you want to be like your former self, deceiving yourself and saying that it is to protect everyone, but what you do is just to escape." ”

Zhang Yuan was stunned when he heard the word "escape" spit out of Chen Qianyun's mouth, and even his breathing was stagnant, and the dream a few days ago reappeared in his mind.

"What are you running away from?"

"What are you running away from?"

"You're running away from ......"

"You know what? In my eyes, you're a coward right now! You're just evading responsibility, you're just a despicable, knee-bending man! Chen Qianyun's accusations over and over again pulled Zhang Yuan's feelings back into reality.

It was as if his heart was being clenched by a big hand, Zhang Yuan only felt unusually uncomfortable in his heart, and he retorted in a voice that only two people could hear: "I'm not a coward, I just don't want to affect everyone." ”

When Zhang Yuan met Chen Qianyun's gaze again, he saw a crystal light shining on the side of the other party's eyes, but the sad and angry face on his face entered Zhang Yuan's eyes, and it was not a beautiful appearance.

Why did she have tears in her eyes, was it anger, was it pity, was it disappointment, was it thinking of the tragic experience I might face, or was she trapped between family and friendship, unable to make her own choice?

Friendship?

Thinking of this, Zhang Yuan sighed again, this friendship is probably wishful thinking, and the intersection between him and this eldest lady can only end here, from then on, the name Zhang Yuan only represents a good-for-nothing stranger.

Zhang Yuan, who was immersed in the world of thoughts, just watched Chen Qianyun's mouth open and close, but all the voices here had been isolated from his mind, including her voice, of course.

Suddenly, Zhang Yuan saw Chen Qianyun stretching out his hand towards his shoulder, and then he suddenly woke up, and the other party's voice was clear again at this moment.

Chen Qianyun pressed Zhang Yuan's shoulder and asked him to turn to the rear: "You look at them well, you look at Tai Meng, look at Shen Ying, and Tietou, Tai Yong and Xiao Xuan." You have to look at their faces, look at their expressions, and you can still say that you are leaving without hesitation? ”

Zhang Yuan bit his lip, his eyes fluttered, and he felt an inexplicable feeling in his heart. Every time he looked at a face, the emotion swelled a little, making his mood extremely heavy.

Chen Qianyun continued: "Do you think they call you boss just because you have hard fists? No, it's because there is a quality in the body that is like a light that attracts flying insects. You are the light we follow, and you are now not being rewarded by my father as Zhang Yuan, but as our hope. Are you going to tell us that the light we see is a hoax? You can't be so selfish as to extinguish the lights we follow! ”

"I ......" A feeling of suffocation rushed straight to Zhang Yuan's heart, making him increase his breathing little by little, but the harder he inhaled, the more he felt panicked. Every word Chen Qianyun said was like a hammer hitting his heart, shaking his determination to leave.

"Do you think that carrying all the pain on your shoulders is to bear it, and do you think that dedicating yourself alone is what you, the boss, should do? Zhang Yuan, you are wrong, you only care about the facts, you only care about your own feelings, you don't think about what we think in our hearts when facing these things. Why don't you ask me how I feel? Chen Qianyun said that the sadness in her tone could not be concealed, and the tears in the corners of her eyes also slipped down at this moment.

"I, I'm ......" Zhang Yuan shook his head and couldn't speak, the bad emotions filled his heart, he couldn't vent, there was nowhere to vent. He simply sat down on the steps, reached out and grabbed a strand of his hair.

Everyone in the courtyard looked at Zhang Yuan at the door, and the atmosphere was particularly solemn.

After being silent for a long time, Shen Cheng was finally the first to stand up, walked up to Zhang Yuan and said his heart: "Boss, you should know my situation best, at the beginning, the relationship between us was just a play. In fact, I was also thinking at the time, when I got tired of your story of challenging the windmill, would I ever say goodbye one day? ”

With Shen Cheng's narration, Zhang Yuan recalled the scene when he first had a heart-to-heart with the other party in the mine. Indeed, as Shen Cheng said, when he Zhang Yuan said the words inviting Shen Cheng to join, he did not have a heart of vigilance, and the cold sweat on his forehead at that time was the best proof.

"But do you know, Boss?" Shen Cheng saw that Zhang Yuan was silent, so he continued, "What did you say to me that day on the mountain of Mucheng, when we looked at the brightly lit stone city. Those words were the ones that really pulled me out of prison for me. Boss, trust us, we can get through it together. ”

"Yes, we can get through it together!"

Zhang Yuan, who heard the voice, raised his head and found that Xuan Zijun had already stood next to Shen Cheng at some point, and after the two of them side by side, the head of the iron head was also looming, but this guy still didn't like to speak as always.

Xuan Zijun raised his fist to his chest: "Zhang Yuan, have you forgotten what you said to me in the first place?" You say we can't bow down to the wrong order, and while I may not know as much as you do, I know that those people shouldn't want you. And I've always wanted to thank you for saving me from that place, from that situation. So, Zhang Yuan, no matter what difficulties there are, as long as you need me, I will stand up! ”

Another pair of feet appeared, and it was Tae-mon who came out of the pile, and this guy looked like he had just cried so much that his eyes were red. But no one laughed at him, and everyone naturally looked at Tae-mo, waiting for him to speak.

"Boss, I'm ...... Do you know? I've had a great time because I've come out of prison and I've had a lot of friends all at once. If it weren't for you, let alone knowing other people, I wouldn't have been able to get out of prison. Tae-mong said with a crying voice, and many words in the middle were blurred by his tears.

Chen Qianyun hurriedly interrupted: "Okay, Taimeng, don't cry, wipe away your tears and say it." ”

"It's okay with me, it's okay." Tai Meng wiped his face with his sleeve, "I just want to say that I am very happy with the boss, even if I am fighting side by side in Xishan City, I feel very happy." So, Boss, can you not leave us? As long as you stay, I can do anything, I promise to talk less nonsense in the future, I, I promise to find a new partner right away, a new one, yes, a new doctor. ”

Taeyong also walked over, and he didn't say a word like Tietou, just patted Taeong's back, and then looked at Zhang Yuan with a hopeful gaze.

Seeing that Zhang Yuan was still silent, Chen Qianyun squatted down, stretched out his hand to support Zhang Yuan's shoulder, and said softly: "Look, everyone doesn't want you to leave, everyone is willing to face it with you." Are you so cruel that you want to ignore everyone's wishes? ”

"But if we don't, what can we do against your father?" Zhang Yuan lowered his head and said.

"I can't help it, don't forget that I'm his daughter."
