Chapter 177: Evil Dragon
"What's your name?"
The girl looked to be only seven or eight years old, and she squatted down and looked at Xue Kang curiously.
"My name is Xue Kang."
The girl was obviously unaware of the dangers of the world, and was not afraid of the young man in front of her, and she continued to ask, "Why don't you go home?" What about your parents? ”
Generally, when he heard this kind of question, Xue Kang would subconsciously get angry, but in the face of the girl's innocent eyes, he couldn't get angry.
He whispered, "I can't find my home, and even if I did, it would have been flooded." ”
"Oh, aren't you like me? My father and mother also died, in a fire, and my uncles all said that I was a broom star, and only my grandmother was willing to want me. ”
Speaking of this, the girl actually raised a smile, and did not feel sad at all about the death of her parents.
In other words, she has long learned to hide in the cold words of her relatives and uncles.
"Miss your parents?" The young man asked.
"Sometimes I think about it, I often dream about it, but unfortunately I can't remember it anymore." The girl's eyes turned red as she spoke.
The boy saw that he had provoked other people's sadness and wanted to comfort him, but he didn't know what to say for a while.
Just as he was thinking about how to change the subject, the girl was the first to laugh and said, "But it doesn't matter, my grandmother loves me very much, my house is over there, if you don't have anything to eat in the future, come to me." ”
Seeing this, the boy couldn't help but feel much better, and he nodded and said "yes".
For a long time after that, perhaps because of his luck, Xue Kang could always get something to eat, and he gradually forgot the agreement between the two until that day came.
……
On that day, a merchant ship came to the port, but it was not loaded with goods, but with people, dense people, dense with Japanese bandits.
They were dressed strangely, each with a long knife in their hands, and they shouted words that everyone did not understand, like locusts crossing the border, killing people when they saw them, and robbing things when they saw them.
The officers and soldiers defending the city were no match for them in the slightest, and hundreds of them were killed by twenty or thirty people.
The small coastal city where Xue Kang was located became the target of their plunder, and he always remembered the scene when the wailing was all over the field, and all the big and small households in the city were looted by the swarmed pirates, and the only thing left was corpses all over the ground.
The same is true on the streets, because Xue Kang has been on the streets all year round, he has long been familiar with all kinds of alleys, he has finally escaped with his dexterity, but the others are not so lucky, from time to time someone is caught up, and then poured into a pool of blood in a wail.
This scene, purgatory on earth, is nothing more than that.
Just when Xue Kang was hiding in a hidden location, a girl's cry suddenly sounded in his ears, and after hearing this voice, he immediately chose to give up hiding and ran directly in the direction of the sound.
It was the voice of the girl who had a meal for him.
Soon after, he found the girl in a dwelling, and the girl was crying on a corpse on the ground, while next to her, a widow was walking towards her with a long knife and a smirk.
Xue Kang only felt a rush of blood to the top of his head, and out of nowhere, he took out a rusty dagger from his arms and rushed towards the wolf.
The Wako apparently didn't take him seriously, and he had killed no less than five of these emaciated little beggars along the way.
Casually slash the knife at the oncoming little beggar, as usual, without looking at the result, just wait for the other party to fall.
But this time the little beggar was obviously different, not only did he not dodge in the slightest, but he did not even slow down.
I saw that he used his arm to block the sharp blade that was swinging, and the dagger in his hand was not too sharp.
Seeing this, the smile on the face of the widow was even stronger, and the knife in his hand could easily cut off the opponent's slender arm, and by the way, along with the opponent's body, it was divided into two.
It's a pity that he still missed the calculation, Xue Kang competes with other beggars all year round, and if he acts impulsively, I'm afraid he won't live today.
With the sound of "ding" metal collision, the Japanese knife that slashed at Xue Kang was blocked, and the Japanese on the opposite side were shocked when they saw this, and hurriedly drew their knives to defend themselves, but the Japanese knives still left a wound on Xue Kang's arm on the way back.
Xue Kang finally found the opportunity, where would he give up easily, he endured the pain and continued to take a step forward, and then directly used a trick to tease the yin leg, his three indiscriminate tricks, but he learned it in the battle with the ruffians all year round.
As a samurai, it is this kind of move that he disdains the most, and it is precisely this move that he neglects to guard against.
He squatted down in pain in an instant, and even the knife in his hand almost fell to the ground, Xue Kang seized the opportunity and directly stabbed the dagger in his hand straight out, and Qi Gen sank into the other party's heart.
When the other party was completely unable to afford it, the exhausted Xue Kang sat on the ground and gasped.
If I hadn't deliberately picked up a stove hook and hid it in my sleeve just now, I'm afraid I wouldn't have dared to be so hard.
He held back the pain and tore open the sleeve of his shirt, only to see a deep wound on his arm dripping blood.
The girl not far away was frightened by what was happening in front of her, but after seeing Xue Kang's wound, she immediately came back to her senses, took out a handkerchief from her arms, came to Xue Kang, and carefully bandaged him.
Xue Kang looked at each other like this, and gradually fainted.
When he woke up again, he found himself in an unfamiliar environment, and the wound on his arm had been rebandaged.
"Are you awake?"
At this time, a man in his thirties walked over.
Although Xue Kang was a little confused, he listened to what the other party said not in a slang, so he relaxed his vigilance.
"You killed that robber?"
As he spoke, the man handed over a dagger, the same one that Xue Kang had inserted into the heart of the wolf.
Xue Kang hesitated at first, but finally nodded.
Seeing this, the man on the other side immediately showed a smile and said softly:
"Don't be afraid, my name is Letu, I am a group of Japanese soldiers, the Japanese in this area have been driven away by us, there will be no danger for the time being, you can rest first."
With that, the man got up and prepared to leave.
"That girl, is she okay?" At this time, Xue Kang took the initiative to ask a question.
"She's fine, she's just a little frightened, and she's still resting."
After the man left, Xue Kang, who was weak, fell into a deep sleep again and did not wake up until the next day.
After a period of time, he and Miao Ling both ate and lived in the Suppression Group.
He also gradually learned that the predecessors of the anti-Japanese group were just ordinary people who made a living by smuggling business, and because of the sudden invasion of the Japanese pirates, their already not optimistic business was even more bleak, so they spontaneously organized themselves to fight against the Japanese pirates.
And the Letu he saw that night was the leader of this anti-Japanese group.
Later, the plague gradually subsided, and the anti-Japanese group returned to his old profession, Xue Kang became more and more favored by Letu because of his agility and outstanding performance, and even repeatedly said that he would accept him as a righteous son.
Xue Kang wanted to refuse, but when he thought that Miao Ling, who had no relatives, would wake up crying in his dreams, he was shaken.
In the end, he found Le Tu and agreed to the other party's request, but the condition was that the other party would also accept Miao Ling as a righteous daughter.
Letu agreed without hesitation.
Later, the anti-Japanese group became the Water Bandit Gang, and Le Tu also changed from an anti-Japanese leader to a Japanese leader.
The dragon slayer will eventually become an evil dragon.
Only the relationship between Xue Kang and Miao Ling remains the same.
