Volume V: The Return of the King 339 Edwin Van Cleef

In fact, I fantasized about how I and even my loved ones would leave the world at a very early age. It's not a joke, but I really think about it, from the first time I dreamed of my father dying when I was five years old, to the fact that I had seen too many people die and developed some alternative understanding of death in my heart, and then I gradually approached death and kept watching all kinds of people die. My understanding and feelings about death are completely different from those of others.

I see people kill fish, chickens, ducks, geese, pigs, cows and sheep. From bloodletting to disembowelment, from scaling and hair removal to peeling skin and cramps. Those memories are so vivid in my mind that I feel like I'll remember them forever. Even if a person dies, whether it is a broken skin or a broken belly, I think it is acceptable.

But I never expected that one day I would see this scene happen to my relatives, my brother, my own brother, the only brother.

Do I like him? Maybe there was a moment when I felt that it was good to have this loved one, he made me feel that someone still loved me, and this love made me feel warm and grounded. But is it love or love for me? Do I have love for him? Do I love him? What is love for Him?

I haven't thought about it, but at this moment I have only one thought in my heart, I don't want him to die, I don't want him to die, I don't want him to die!

Do I hate him? There was a moment when I hated him, I didn't think he loved me, he was a psychopath, he was hell-bent on revenge, he was a tough seed, a stubborn head driven crazy by revenge. Just the other day, when Willie said something big was going to happen, I didn't even think about him dying. Really, I didn't think about his death, I didn't even think that he would end up like this.

"Why don't you run!" I shouted at him to the core. "Ahh

He looked at me, I looked at him, I looked into his eyes, and there were tears in his eyes.

"I thought it was ...... I'll never see you again. He was already running out of energy when he spoke.

"Why don't you run!" I shouted, "Get up! Let's go! I'll take you away! ”

He smiled, but the smile seemed so difficult. He shook his head slightly, "I can see you this side...... It's pretty good, too. ”

"What are you talking about!" I stood in the doorway and looked back. "It's good to see me this way!" After saying that, I quickly squatted in front of him.

He covered his stomach with his right hand, and he didn't dare to come out, he gently stretched out his left hand and grabbed his hand, "I swear I will save you, I swear!" ”

He shook his head, "It's useless, Mason. "He seems to have his bowels bulging out as soon as he exerts force.

"I don't want you to die." I said I was going to summon the Holy Light Technique, but when I used the original method, I felt like I was stumbling, and the feeling of loss made me feel like a stumbling loss. I tried again and it still does.

Mason ...... his breath waning. I'm sorry. ”

"Don't say it, don't say it......" Suddenly my nose was sore, I don't know why I just felt so sad this time.

"I'm going to die." He said, "I...... Jaya...... I don't have a chance to tell you. His hand was gone, but he still squeezed my hand hard, "It's all in vain...... Mason, I'm not done...... It's mine...... Promise. I only ...... Want to give them ...... Get justice, but I know ...... King...... Won't give it to me...... To give...... We...... Justice, I failed......"

"You don't need ...... Avenge me, you ...... Good...... Live well. It's not your business, it's none of your business. You...... Get out of here and take her with you, Vanessa...... Every...... You're going to promise me...... Take care of her! ”

I nodded.

"Promise...... I. He grabbed my hand again and said it with all his might.

"I promise you!" I say. "I swear I'll take care of her!"

A rare smile appeared on his face, "Mason...... Are you still ...... Resentment...... I...... Is it? "Seeing that he is going to die.

"Nope! No! "My eyes hurt so much! Why does it hurt so much! "I've never held a grudge against you, Edwin! Never! I've never held a grudge against you! I repeated, hoping he would hear clearly.

"Huh......" he exhaled, "I...... I didn't protect you, I didn't protect you...... Protect you. ”

After saying this, a tear actually flowed from the corner of his eye.

"Brother, I can't protect you anymore." The tears slipped from the corners of his eyes. "I'm ...... I'm sorry. ”

"No!" I don't know what to say, and I can't speak.

"That time...... I'll chase you away, I'll ......" He was a little out of breath.

"Stop talking, Edwin, stop talking!"

He shook his head, "I...... Also know...... You're not the kind to be tied down...... I know you, too...... Heart...... In fact...... Very...... Bewilderment. He sighed, "I ...... Got it...... I shouldn't ...... Involve you again. You...... You should...... Live as you are, it's not your business, you should...... Aloof...... You...... Hate me...... It doesn't matter, even if you never come back...... I admit it. Cause...... Because go away and fly high...... You might be able to live a little better. ”

My hands were shaking.

"I was talking ...... Speech...... Very...... Ugly, Mei ...... Forest...... I'm sorry. ”

These words made me suddenly feel like the sky was falling, and that kind of guilt, reluctance, sadness, and indescribable sadness instantly surged into my heart. My eyes...... It hurts! It hurts a lot! I wanted to close my eyes, but I didn't want to close them, I wanted to look at him, but the stinging pain in my eyes made it difficult for me to open my eyes.

Is that the result of tears? I do not know! But I didn't shed tears! How can a dead man have tears!

"Here!" Suddenly, someone shouted.

I opened my eyes suddenly, turned my head and saw two people standing in the doorway, and an irrepressible anger instantly came to my head, and I threw the axe on the ground at once.

"Let's go! Vanessa! Come with your uncle! Edwin said.

At this time, I had already rushed to the door, and there were two people who wanted to squeeze in, but I pushed them out. An axe that was pulled out and inserted into the man's abdomen was slammed, and half of the man's face was sliced off. The other apparently didn't react to this, and I cut his head in half with an axe.

When he rushed back to Edwin, he was already weak, and Vanessa on one side was crying.

"Edwin!" I shouted at him.

He tried to look at me, "Brother, go!" Fast! Take her away! ”

Seeing that he was going to die, these two sentences were his last strength, but at this time, how could he bear to turn around and leave! In the past, I always hated the people in the story for doing things and chirping, but at this time I just want to be able to grind for one more second, I want to wait another minute, I don't want to leave, I really don't want to leave!

"Chief!" At this time, some people came running, but they were surprised when they stood in front of the door.

"Avenge the leader!" Someone shouted.

"No!" Edwin took a breath, "Run!" Remove! Fall back! Before he could finish his sentence, his body went limp.

"Retreat!" I turned to them and shouted, "The leader told you to retreat!" Save your lives! ”

The men were in tears.

He reached for me, a ring, a pocket watch, and as I took it, Edwin reached to my chest, and I was surprised to see him draw his musket. "Let's go!" He said.

I stood up and reached out to take Vanessa's hand, and Vanessa couldn't cry anymore, and he shook it off when I pulled her.

"Let's go!" Edwin showed the last of his tenderness. As he spoke, he put a gun to his chin.

Vanessa screamed.

Edwin pulled the trigger directly.

I took her into my arms, but she pushed me away and threw myself at Edwin's body, and the people at the door rushed in and cried. But the situation outside made this sad atmosphere last less than a minute. The soldiers rushed to the door, but the workers at the door stopped them, and the workers screamed for revenge for Edwin, and then went out in a thud. Finally the man turned to me and shouted, "Take Vanessa away!" Come on! ”

Of course I knew to go quickly, but Vanessa picked up his father's musket and rushed to the door.

"Vanessa!" I was shocked and followed. Vanessa rushed out the door and raised her gun to shoot, but the strong recoil caused her to stagger.

I pulled him over and said, "Come with me!" I shouted at her.

"I'm going to avenge my dad!" She screamed at me.

"Let's go first! We can't hold it! Save your life first! "I shouted too.

"I'm not afraid! To go, you go! She was about to shake off my hand as she spoke, and I twisted it back all at once. You're not qualified to say dead! ”

She screamed in pain.

I dragged her back to the room, and I took off the oil lamp from the wall and threw it against the wall next to the bed, the oil lamp was shattered, and the oil was thrown out.

"What are you doing!" She shouted.

"I don't want him to be humiliated!" I glared at her and said viciously. "Come on! Help! ”

I asked her to help in the hope that she would calm down, and she picked up her musket and went to move her father, but as soon as she touched her father's foot, she began to cry. It's okay, it's okay to cry, at least not to do anything stupid. I placed Edwin on the bed, and the flames had already begun to spread. I pulled all the books and papers on the table, and I hoped that the flames would consume this place and burn it completely.

"Let's go!" Shouting outside.

I grabbed Vanessa and ran out, and Vanessa was still crying. It's not impossible to dive directly from here, but Vanessa probably can't stand it. But when I hesitated, more people rushed up. Turning my head to look at the room that was already on fire, I jerked Vanessa into my arms and jumped down.

Vanessa tried to struggle, but the momentary weightlessness made her nervous, but before she could reach out and grab me, we had already jumped into the water. I covered her mouth and nose while she scratched around. I just let go of my hand, but she grabbed me. Sure enough, in the water, this instinct to survive will make people cling to everything they can.

I lifted her out of the water, and she was half out of the water, for a second, two seconds, three seconds! As soon as I unloaded her force, she fell again, and I held her up to keep her from choking. I don't care, I can stay underwater for as long as I want, but she can't.

I dragged her to swim quickly to the opposite shore, and the dozens of meters of swimming were not too difficult!
