Chapter 56: Preparations for Battle
Looking at the serious look on Mrs. Li's face, Long Tianxiang suddenly realized that he seemed to be thinking too simply. He had also heard of the strangeness of the forests west of the city.
Yes, that's a place where the strong don't dare to set foot in, why did you decide to take risks so easily?
By the way, I was thinking that those four people should be black-eyed gangs, and I let myself go just to get revenge on myself. It's just a black eye, and it should have been beaten. Yes, that's what I thought.
But as Mrs. Li said, the forest in the west of the city itself is very dangerous, and the black-eyed four people don't know what is going on, and they may not have been able to fight it. Why didn't he think of these things? Long Tianxiang asked himself.
Yes. It seems that after I started learning magic, I seem to have forgotten the days of fear I had in the past, so that's why I think this is the case.
Long Tianxiang recalled the past. Sickness, beatings, starvation, loneliness, the pain of the past that he had forgotten because of his addiction to magic flooded out of his memory little by little, and reoccupied Long Tianxiang's heart, he lost all the refreshment just now, and became very hesitant.
But if you don't go, how can you tell Sister Zhang, who is waiting outside the door? The strong man who has a good relationship with Qingyulou on weekdays can't be counted on, and the black eye naming himself wants to go, obviously arresting Wang Yiqing is to take revenge on himself. In a way, she was affected by herself.
But Long Tianxiang didn't care about this, what made him hesitate was the home-like feeling that Qingyulou gave him, so that he didn't want to disappoint others. Otherwise, he would definitely not go.
After thinking about it, he finally made a decision and said, "I'd better go for it." ”
"Tianxiang, don't you know what's at stake? Which is more important, Wang Yiqing's safety or your own life? Don't you want to be reckless just because those Qinglou women give you a blow!" Mrs. Li really bitterly spoke.
Long Tianxiang shook his head and said, "If you can save it, you can save it, I will definitely put my own safety first." If it's not right, you should be able to run away. ”
Mrs. Li was silent. Such a mentality is indeed a compromise solution. For a moment, as if she had made a decision, she asked, "Are you really going?"
"Well, Qingyulou has given me a lot of favors. Whether I save people or not, I still have to go at least. ”
When Mrs. Li heard this, she opened a drawer and pulled out a beautiful little box, which she could see must be very important. She opened the box, and inside was a yellow egg-shaped spar, but it was only the size of a quail egg, and it was crystal clear, and it was very beautiful.
Mrs. Li said: "This is what my husband originally gave me, and he said that it is a magic crystal used by mages, so I will give it to you." As she spoke, she couldn't help but have a hint of gloom on her face.
Of course, Long Tianxiang also knew that she had fallen out of favor for many years, so he could also expect that this thing was the time when she and her husband were most affectionate, one of the few things of sustenance. Even if he looks at the favor very lightly, he feels that this gift is a little unbearable, not to mention, the quality of this spar is still very high, whether it is used to make a staff or draw a magic circle, it is a good thing, and when it is on the market, it also has a price of 100 gold.
He couldn't help but say, "Madam, this is what your husband gave you, how can I ask for it." ”
Mrs. Li smiled self-deprecatingly and said, "What he gave me, I feel upset when I read it now, so it's better to give it to you." ”
Long Tianxiang still excused himself and said, "This spar itself is also a very valuable thing......
Mrs. Li forced the box to him, and said emotionally: "No matter how precious it is, it doesn't matter if you can have your life? It doesn't matter if you don't have this spare, but if you don't give me a massage, I really don't know how I'm going to live in the future." Since you insist on going, there is only so much I can do for you. ”
Long Tianxiang felt her true affection, and said, "Thank you, madam." ”
Mrs. Li smiled and said, "Don't thank you first, there are conditions for giving you this thing." ”
Long Tianxiang was stunned.
Mrs. Li threw herself into his arms at once and said, "After you come back this time, I want you to really want me once." ”
Speaking of this, Long Tianxiang was not easy to shirk, and said, "Okay." But he didn't understand what he meant.
After saying this, Mrs. Li still hugged him tightly, and after a long time, she raised her head from Long Tianxiang's arms, looked into his eyes, and said seriously: "You must come back." ”
Long Tianxiang didn't know how to respond to such affectionate words, so he could only nod. Then he left.
When he arrived outside the door, he told Sister Zhang Zhang Xinyu the ins and outs of the matter, Zhang Xinyu was furious and scolded: "This Li family is not a thing, their delay, Sister Qing's life will be gone!"
Sister Zhang looked at Long Tianxiang and asked, "Are you going?"
Long Tianxiang had already thought about it and said, "If you don't go, you can't help it." It's too late to hire someone now. Sister Zhang, you go back to the building first. I'll just save one of them. ”
"I'll go with you, too. Zhang Xinyu said.
"Yu'er, you don't know anything, what are you going to do there?" Sister Zhang was anxious when she heard this.
He shook his head and said, "I can't let you go on an adventure alone. ”
Looking at the firm light in her son's eyes, Zhang Wanling had no choice but to agree.
So the three soldiers split into two ways. Let's just say that Long Tianxiang and Zhang Xinyu took a carriage to the west of the city.
The farther they walked out of the city, the more unsteady the road became, and the carriage jolted, shaking the bodies of the two men. But for some reason, Long Tianxiang felt that his heart was shaking together.
The panic was like water about to overflow, and he hadn't felt anything at the Li family, but as the west of the city got closer, the negative emotions became more and more irrepressible. At this time, he comforted himself with the idea of "if you can save it, you can save it, and if you can't run immediately", he comforted himself. Along the way, I don't know how many times I have been so relieved.
The west of the city was dangerous, and the coachman did not dare to go, so the two could only walk the last section on foot. And when the dark green forest really appeared in the field of vision of the two, the moon was already in the middle of the sky.
Sure enough, there were a few people standing outside the forest, it was the black-eyed gang, Wang Yiqing was tied up with his hands and feet, lying on the side, but his body was writhing, but he hadn't been killed yet.
From afar, the black eyes said, "I thought you coward wouldn't dare to come." But he came so late, and he was still a coward. With that, the four of them laughed in unison.
Long Tianxiang didn't respond, and cold sweat came out layer by layer.
When he was still some distance away from the black eye, but he could see the other party clearly, Long Tianxiang could no longer suppress his panic, because he saw the cold and crazy killing intent in the black eye.
His whole body froze there, and all the sounds were inaudible.
The ribs were aching, and it seemed that they had not been healed since they had been broken by the man in front of them;
The weakness of not eating for a week suddenly hit his whole body, and he had no intention of fighting;
The demon of fire was about to devour him, but he could not move a step;
Ridiculed, insulted, isolated, all the scenes appeared in front of his eyes......
