Text Chapter 2 Troubles
Starmark was stunned when he heard this, he reacted very quickly, and immediately put today's income into his arms, the light in his eyes disappeared in an instant, and his body became rickety again, but in the blink of an eye, he once again became as trembling as begging before, as if he was about to fall in the wind and snow at any time. Starmark is here, and it looks like he's just looking for a place to hide from the wind and snow.
"I haven't eaten in a few days, can the kind uncle reward me with a bite to eat..."Starmark habitually turned his head and begged, this was his specialty, but he stopped halfway through his words. Because it was not his ideal "client" who came behind him, but five men who had just come of age at the age of seventeen or eighteen (sixteen years old in the Kingdom of Rune), and their eyes were focused on Starmark, with a cruel smile on the corner of their mouths.
Of the five, two were tapping their palms with iron rods, and two were facing away from Starmark, looking at the street with their own menacing eyes, driving away those who noticed something unusual and wanted to come and see what was going on.
"Little bunny, I see where you're running today. The man at the head smiled evilly. He originally had beautiful long blond hair, but he dyed it red and purple, like a rooster.
Starmark looked at a few people, and was stunned because it was different from his original imagination, but he quickly came back to his senses. Starmark pursed his lips, then sighed. The aggrieved look that was ready to tear disappeared, but was replaced by not fear, but the helplessness of feeling that the trouble was encountered by himself.
Starmark bent down slightly and stood up straight, then looked at a few people with a look of disgust, pouted, and said, "I really ran into you ghostly guys." ”
These people are the group of gangsters mentioned by Uncle Joseph in the morning, and the "big rooster" led by him is also a little famous in this area, called Andre. Andrei's talent is very good, although he has never received any formal guidance and cultivation, but he has cultivated more than ten levels of Xuan power by himself, and if he wants to talk about the ability to fight, even those junior adventurers who have more than twenty levels of Xuan power are not necessarily his opponents, which is enough to be regarded as a miracle...
"Yo he, the little rabbit cub is still quite crazy, I let you run away last time, look at how my brothers clean you up today, and obediently hand over the money, maybe my brother can still be merciful after a while." Andre smiled and slowly clenched his outstretched palms, making a crisp sound.
For Andrei's threat, Starmark doesn't buy it. Dusting off the snow on his head, he said lazily: "It seems that last time, you said the same thing last time." By the way, and last time, how many times did you say it? 10 times, or 11 times?"
Hearing Starmark say this, Andre's face immediately turned pale, and Starmark's words were like an iron cone, poking directly into his heart. Andrei's anger ignited in an instant. I saw Andre pointing at the little beggar and scolding: "Starmark, you little rabbit cub, if I don't tear you apart today, I won't call Andre!" Before the words fell, Andre had already strode out and rushed towards the little beggar Starmark.
Xingji saw Andre rushing towards him, and stuck out his tongue at him without hurrying, squirting out a lot of spitting stars, and then shook his head defiantly: "Big rooster, if you can't catch me again this time, just be my subordinate, let's contract this piece of begging business together, how about it?"
"Stinky boy, who wants to do such a shameful thing with you! See if I don't beat you up!" Andre scolded angrily, and his steps immediately quickened.
Starmark had long expected Andre to answer like this, not only was he not annoyed, but he laughed, beckoned to Andre and the others, and shouted, "Then I'll talk about it when you catch up!"
Before he could finish speaking, Starmark had already rushed out into the depths of the alley. At this moment, Starmark seemed to have changed into a different person, and the speed was still like the weak little beggar who seemed to fall on the side of the street at any time, even if it was a sturdy rabbit that could not reach Starmark.
"Brothers, catch up with him and let him know who's in charge here!" accompanied by Andrei's roar. Suddenly, the six of them started a chase in this winding alley...
Xingji looked behind him, and saw Andre and the others chasing after him, and the corners of his mouth were slightly raised. Just as he passed the first turn, Starmark jerked his leg up and kicked at a wide, not-so-obvious plank around the corner, and his seemingly thin calf shattered the thick-looking plank with a single kick. However, kicking the splintering planks was not the point, the point was that as the planks shattered, a shrill whistling sound rushed upwards. Andre looked up when he heard the sound, and suddenly his body trembled, only to see that directly above him, in the empty space between the two buildings, there was a wooden plank that was more than ten meters long and almost filled the alley wide. And the sound of breaking the sky in the air is the rope used to hold the plank. At this time, there was no fixed support, and the planks naturally fell from the sky and smashed down on them.
"Holy!" Andre exclaimed, although he was in good physical condition, it was definitely not good to be hit by it. Fortunately, his mental quality was still good, and he immediately made the most correct choice and accelerated forward.
The rest of the gangsters naturally saw this scene, the plank was too long, it was too late to retreat, all they could do was to speed up and rush over like Andre, if they were hit, with their physical fitness, it was estimated that they would have to lie in bed for half a month, to say the least.
"Bastard, little bunny, I'm not done with you!" Suddenly, a strange cry sounded chaotically.
"I'm damn it~!" accompanied by two terrible screams, the last two people who fell behind, they were not fast, and when they saw this thrilling scene, their bodies were already frozen, and all they could do was instinctively protect their heads and protect their important parts. Because of this, the original chance of escaping and ascending to heaven also disappeared, and with a "bang", it was smashed under the heavy plank.
When Andre heard the screams from behind, his scalp was numb, and he squinted at the smashed brother behind him. Looking at the miserable appearance of the two people, the corners of Andre's mouth twitched. But at this time, he couldn't stop, because if he turned back to help, he would lose the opportunity to catch the star mark again. And the most troublesome thing is that if there is such a big movement here, it will definitely be noticed, if it alarms the security department, it is estimated that he will be invited to "drink tea" again, even if he is already a regular visitor, but Andre still has some reluctance in his heart for that kind of place.
Andre's eyes showed unbearability, but in the end, he still clenched his teeth hard, shook his head and stopped looking behind him, leaving only a sentence of "Brothers, hold on! I will avenge you!".
At this time, Andre's steps became even harder, in order to avenge his brother, this time he secretly swore in his heart that he must catch the star mark! The other two thugs who could escape were also afraid for a while when they saw their brother being smashed. They didn't care about the two unlucky guys with the same idea as Andre, but just comforted, "Let's go support the eldest brother, and come back with that little king and eight calves for the two of you to clean up!" He chased after Andre.
The pursuit of the trio continued, but the plank that fell from the sky was actually only the beginning of the disaster. This usually cosy alley has become a maze of falling planks, catapulted stones, strecked thumbtacks, and even animal droppings pouring down like a torrential rain. Starmark ran in front of him, opening up the traps he had designed a long time ago, and from time to time he stopped to wave to Andre, provocatively urging him to speed up. And every time Andre wants to give up, the anger in his heart will be ignited by the star mark and turned into motivation to break through the encirclement. As for the other two, they were already emaciated and fell under a tumbling garbage can and a flying mass of stool.
Andre is still holding on, but his face has shown dazed and tired, from the beginning of the pursuit to the present is actually only more than 500 meters, but he has "lost" four brothers. Although his body can still support him, the fatigue in his heart has made him almost unable to give up.
But whenever he wants to give up, Andre thinks of his fallen brother, and this is no longer an unknown number of brothers! Andre clearly remembers the scene of the first grudge with Starmark, when Andre had more than 20 younger brothers, it was a big team, and Starmark was only a six-year-old boy, that time they were forced back by a few simple traps, and a few companions felt that they were being played by a six-year-old child, and decided that Andre was incompetent and left. Since then, Andre has been trying to catch the star marks again and again, but none of them have succeeded, and the people around him have gradually left because they are either tired of or afraid of this kind of chase, and finally only Andre and the four brothers around him are left.
"Thirteen times, this time I must wash away the previous shame!" Thinking of the past, a force rose in Andre's body again, pushing his already tired legs forward!
"That bastard boy is not yet eight years old, how long can a child run!? He will soon be unable to run, I just have to hold on for a little longer! Andre muttered in his heart, convinced that Starmark couldn't last long. And this belief also made him like a god to avoid three flying stone shots, avoid a wooden plank airborne, break through the interception of more than 100 sheets, and climb out of a two-meter-deep sewage pit.
Perhaps God sensed Andrei's strong will, and Starmark finally stopped out of breath after running for more than three hundred meters. After all, Starmark is not yet eight years old, even if his physical fitness is good, but for him, the distance of more than 800 meters, and the repeated trigger mechanism, his body is already tired...
