10-year-old Joshan took his sister's hand and strolled through the courtyard of his villa.

His sister is a fourth-year student at the Vanra Imperial Battleship Commander Academy.

This weekend, Qiao Lan, who finally went home, replaced the maid at home to play with her 14-year-old brother.

"Shanshan, what are you going to do when you grow up?" Qiao Lan stopped and looked at her younger brother with a smile.

Xiao Qiaoshan said in a milky voice: "I will drive a big warship in the future......"

"Wow...... Shanshan wants to be the commander of the battleship? ”

"Hmm......" Little Qiao Shan nodded his little head vigorously.

"That mountain has to study hard, and the command of a battleship is not something that a naughty child can do." Qiao Lan stretched out her finger and hung Qiao Shan's nose.

"But...... But those teachers are so strict, I don't like them. ”

"Shanshan, those teachers are mysterious awakeners, and their knowledge is not available in our time."

"The Awakened are old monsters...... ...... "Qiao Shan stuck out his tongue and grimaced at his sister.

"Little Clever ......"

Qiao Lan was about to say something, but a middle-aged beautiful woman walked into the courtyard and shouted to the two: "Lan Lan, it's time for Shanshan to eat......

Qiao Lan agreed, and pulled Xiao Qiao Shan out of the courtyard.

Qiao Shan's father is a nobleman in the northern star region of the Wanluo Empire, and he has many disciples, three of whom are the awakened ones mentioned by Qiao Lan.

The atmosphere at Qiao's dinner table today was a little wrong.

Qiao Shan's father, Qiao Xiong, was always absent-minded when eating, and from time to time he looked at the door outside the window of the restaurant, as if he was waiting for someone.

"Dad, what are you looking at? The soup was all spilled, ...... said, Qiao Lan picked up the napkin on the table and wiped her father's clothes wet with the soup.

"Oh...... It's nothing! Qiao Xiong tried his best to hide his embarrassment, but his eyes still did not leave the door outside the window.

Suddenly, the door was pushed open.

The three of them hurried into the villa in the courtyard.

After Qiao Xiong saw the person who came, he immediately put down the dishes and chopsticks and said casually: "I'm done eating...... Then you eat. ”

Qiao Lan watched her father shake hands with the few people who came in a hurry, and then went into the study.

"How's it going?" Qiao Xiong didn't wait for a few people to sit down before asking.

"Lao Mo was arrested, and there is more luck than luck!" One of the three young men spoke first.

"Didn't you say it was foolproof?" Qiao Xiong was a little hysterical, but he was worried that the movement would be too big and alarm the enemies hiding in the shadows.

"What are these people going to do? We just want to go back to the Human Federation. The young man was also a little excited, but also lowered his voice.

"Xiao Wu, don't get excited. Just because we old antiques want to go back doesn't mean that the current human race wants to go back. An old man with vicissitudes of life and silver hair slowly spoke.

"General......" Wu Xiaofeng looked at the old man anxiously.

"You've got to move...... I'm not safe here. Qiao Xiong was silent for a while, and suddenly stood up and said.

"We're leaving, what should you do with your family?" The old man looked at Qiao Xiong worriedly.

"I'm a nobleman, and they don't dare to do anything to me." Qiao Xiong patted the noble badge on his left chest.

Just when Qiao Xiong and the others were discussing in their own study, Qiao Shan took his sister into the open space behind the villa.

Little Joe Shan snorted and pulled a rope from the neatly manicured lawn.

"Sister, come and help me...... This lid is too heavy for me to pull! ”

With the help of his sister, Joshan pulled open a stone cover covered with turf.

A ladder appeared under the lid, leading to the ground.

"Below here is my little fortress, I asked Uncle Butler to dig it for me secretly, come, I'll take you down to have a look." Qiao Shan showed off his secret to his sister as if he was offering a treasure.

Descend to the secret room, which is filled with all kinds of toys and a small bed.

The temperature in the chamber is neither high nor low, and the exhaust system is very perfect.

Qiao Lan knew at a glance that this was Wei Feng's style of doing things, either if she didn't do it, or if she wanted to do it, she would do her best.

Qiao Lan pretended to be surprised and said to Qiao Shan, "Wow...... You're so good here! Can you let my sister borrow it for one night? ”

Qiao Shan immediately protected the small bed behind him, and pouted: "The things that my sister borrowed from me in the past have never been returned!" I can't lend you ...... this time."

Qiao Lan covered her mouth and laughed quietly.

Suddenly, Qiao Lan motioned for Xiao Qiao Shan to be silent.

She seemed to hear gunshots......

The secret room suddenly fell silent, and Qiao Lan clearly heard the gunshots coming into the secret room from the outside world.

Qiao Lan thought of her father's abnormality today, and the nervous looks of the three awakened people, and seemed to guess something.

She put her arm on Qiao Shan's shoulders and said, "Little Qiao Shan, how about competing with my sister?" ”

Of course, Qiao Shan, a 10-year-old child, didn't feel much about those strange sounds, and there were too many strange things in this world for children, so as soon as he heard that his sister was going to compete with him, he immediately turned his attention to the game that his sister said.

"My sister also has a secret room, let's compete to see whose secret room is discovered first." As he spoke, he casually picked up a pair of wireless call headsets in the basement, handed them to Qiao Shan, and continued: "Sister, go to my secret room to hide now, and we will use this pair of intercoms to contact." ”

"Okay...... Okay......"

Seeing Qiao Shan happily agree, Qiao Lan got up and climbed out of the basement and put the heavy cover back on.

Hang the headphones on your ears and say to Qiao Shan in the basement: "Don't make a sound, if you are found by others because you are too loud, you are not allowed to cry." ”

Qiao Shan lowered his voice and said into the call headset: "I will never lose, I will shut up after saying this!" ”

Then there was really no sound of Qiao Shan in the headphones.

Qiao Lan looked around, there was no one on the lawn behind the villa, and she slowly walked towards the villa with her body bent.

Gunfire erupted in the villa, and even the sound of high-explosive grenades rang out.

Although Qiao Lan is a reserve officer, she is a girl after all.

The first time you encounter this kind of thing, you will inevitably be nervous and confused.

Outside the villa, Qiao Lan didn't stop much at all, and rushed in without even observing the internal environment.

Rushing through the door, before she could see who had invaded her home, she was knocked unconscious with a knife.

When she woke up, she found that she had been tied up by Wuhuada, and the earphones on her ears had fallen to the ground when she rushed through the door, and she had already been trampled into powder.

Qiao Lan breathed a sigh of relief when she saw the broken communication headset.

He knew that Qiao Shan should be safe now, the cover plate was very heavy, and it was difficult to move the cover plate in a short time with Qiao Shan's strength.

After confirming that his younger brother would not be discovered for a while, he had the heart to observe the situation in the room.

The three awakened were now three corpses, lying motionless in the center of the villa's living room.

A group of armed men with electromagnetic rifles stood in front of Qiao Lan and her parents with their faces covered.

Qiao Lan and her parents were both kneeling on the ground at this time.

"Who are you? I'm a nobleman of the empire......" Qiao Xiong was already extremely angry at this time.

"Aristocrats? Hehe......" A masked man stood in front of Qiao Xiong: "Contain the awakened, whether it is a mysterious person, it should be damned!" ”

"You ......" Qiao Xiong tried to struggle to his feet, but was kicked down by the big man.

"Stop struggling." Dahan took out a dagger from his tactical boot and patted Qiao Xiong's face: "If you answer my question obediently, maybe I will give your family a happy heart." ”

"What do you want me to say?" Qiao Xiong was not frightened by the man's threat, and stared at the big man in front of him with wide eyes.

"How many more awakened have you harbored?"

Qiao Xiong shook his head and did not answer.

"You're very dishonest...... said and threw a dagger at the beautiful woman who was kneeling beside her and had changed her voice.

A howl of pain and hoarseness instantly resounded throughout the room.

Qiao Shan has been hiding in the basement waiting for others to come to him, and the communicator given to him by his sister has long been silent.

Qiao Shan didn't know how long he had waited, anyway, his stomach was already very hungry, but still no one came to him.

He lowered his voice and called out to his sister over the communicator.

There was not the slightest reaction.

Qiao Shan began to get scared, and quickly climbed the stairs, pushing the cover with his body.

The weight of the cover plate was carefully calculated by Wei Feng, and it was impossible to pull it from standing on the ground so that a child of about 10 could not pull it.

But from the basement to the top, it can be pushed up, but it is a little more difficult.

Qiao Shan struggled to climb out of the basement, and it was pitch black outside.

"Dad? Mom? Sister? Qiao Shan looked at the dark courtyard and didn't dare to move a step forward.

After standing there for a long time, and finally the fear of loneliness brought him outweighed his fear of the dark, Qiao Shan ran quickly towards the villa.

The villa was a mess and filled with a strange smell.

"Smart housekeeper ......" Qiao Shan called in a low voice, hoping that the smart housekeeper could turn on the lights in the room.

Called several times and there was no response.

Qiao Shan had no choice but to move slowly along the wall.

finally turned on the lighting facilities in the villa with a manual switch, and everything in front of him made Qiao Shan stunned on the spot.

The house was full of corpses, blood was flowing everywhere.

The parents were in different places, and the sister was lying naked on the ground motionless.

At this moment, Qiao Shan has lost the ability to think, and instinctively feels scared of the scene in front of him, but he wants to go to his parents.

He felt as if he understood what was happening, but he didn't quite understand what was happening.

He was about to walk towards his father's head when a figure stood up in the crowd that suddenly fell.

"Young Master......" The voice of the speaker was weak, as if he was enduring the pain on his body.

"Uncle Wei...... What's wrong with everyone? Why are they all lying on the ground? ”

Wei Feng trembled and walked towards Qiao Shan, picked Qiao Shan up, and covered his eyes with his hands.

Regardless of what Qiao Shan asked, he quickly left their home.

Since then, Qiao Shan and Wei Feng have relied on each other.

In the past few years, the two did not have a good time, coupled with the miserable appearance of his parents and sister that Qiao Shan witnessed, Qiao Shan's temperament changed greatly.

The originally lively and cheerful child became reticent.

Wei Feng thought about the solution of the law to Qiao Shan.

Finally a little better, Qiao Shan began to have nightmares all night long.

Wei Feng began to take Qiao Shan around to seek medical treatment, so that he could sleep more peacefully at night.

This continued for 4 years, until Johnson had nightmares when he was 14 years old.

But there were cases of self-harm.

At first just pinched himself with his hands, slowly began to bang his head against the wall, and again even cut his own hands with shards of glass.

Looking at the bleeding hands, Qiao Shan was actually laughing wildly.

Wei Feng stayed by Qiao Shan's side 24 hours from this day to prevent him from doing anything stupid again.

The two of them, who lost their income all of a sudden, lived a tight life.

In addition, Qiao Shan's good and bad condition made Wei Feng anxious.

Until one night, Qiao Shan was awakened by a nightmare again, desperately choking his neck, trying to strangle himself to death.

Qiao Shan's strength was surprisingly strong when he went crazy, Wei Feng actually couldn't control Qiao Shan, and in desperation, he knocked Qiao Shan unconscious with a knife.

When he woke up the next day, Qiao Shan suddenly changed his character.

"Uncle Wei...... I've worked hard for you in the past few years! ”

"Young Master...... You ......"

Faced with Qiao Shan's sudden change, Wei Feng was a little uncomfortable.

looked at Qiao Shan carefully: "Young Master had another nightmare last night, I really couldn't help but knock you out." ”

Qiao Shan just looked at the gray-haired old man in front of him and didn't say a word.

From this day on, although Qiao Shan still has nightmares, he no longer loses his mind to self-harm.

But still silent, this year Qiao Shan was 16 years old.

He began to try to work outside the home to support himself.

Wei Feng saw Qiao Shan's sudden change, although he was puzzled, fortunately, except for the fact that he didn't like to talk very much, everything else seemed to be normal.

Seeing Qiao Shan getting better day by day, Wei Feng finally put his mind at ease and began to run around trying to let Qiao Shan inherit his father's title.

Qiao Shan also followed behind Wei Feng and saw clearly the warmth and coldness of the human world.

It is common to eat closed-door soup, and it is not uncommon to be kicked out of the house.

At first, Qiao Shan just looked at it coldly, and then he smiled lightly whenever he encountered the same thing.

However, no matter how bad Qiao Xiong was during his lifetime, he still had one or two friends who were willing to help, but it only proved Qiao Shan's identity, so that Qiao Shan could inherit the private account opened by his father in the Imperial Bank.

There is a lot of money in the account, enough for Qiao Shan to buy a destroyer and go out.

Qiao Shan did not miss the place where he was born and raised, and resolutely entered the starry sky.

But he has never forgotten the blood feud of his family.

Wei Feng didn't want to mention that matter again, but he couldn't stand Qiao Shan's repeated inquiries.

This year, Qiao Shan was 18 years old, and Wei Feng completely recounted the events of that night.

That day, when Qiao Shan entered the basement, more than a dozen people wearing exoskeleton armor broke into the door and killed anyone they saw.

Qiao Shan's parents and his sister were eventually captured.

After a brutal interrogation, his parents were tortured and killed, and his sister was raped, and in the end, he did not escape death.

After hearing all this, Qiao Shan got up and returned to his cabin on the battleship, and used the dagger to make 15 scratches on his left arm.

His eyes were full of hatred, staring at the dozen or so scratches on his arms.

He wants revenge, and he knows that he is not facing an ordinary enemy. He has his own strength.

So with the help of Wei Feng, he contacted several members of his father's organization who had survived and embarked on a difficult road of revenge.

It wasn't until he met Qi Yiming that this road of revenge went a little smoother.
