Decades ago, on the banks of the Great River.

When Zhou Jiawei first met the "Dragon King" Palau, he was followed by the gunners of the Rattlesnake mercenaries.

Palau, the "Dragon King", saved him and gave him decades of prosperity, and the spearmen who pursued him were all turned into food for the lizards.

There is only one reason why the dragon king does this, that is, he is still "useful", and those people are useless, "useful" and "useless" in the dragon king, that is, the difference between life and death, and the difference between heaven and hell.

"Only one person is useful, and the other three are useless...... Zhou Jiawei lost his eyes and sat on the ground in a daze.

In front of him, the four children sat paralyzed, over the years, he protected these four children very well, and never let them touch the things of the underground world, but he didn't expect that the first time the underground world showed its fangs, it was to kill them.

Choosing one of the four is an extremely cruel choice for Zhou Jiawei.

"Lord Dragon King, am I still useful?" Zhou Jiawei was silent for a long time, and suddenly raised his head and asked, his voice full of bitterness.

He suddenly discovered something even more cruel, that there was only one person who was useful, and that everyone else would be useless.

"Of course you're useful, you can also chat with me, fishing, you know, I'm a nostalgic person. Palau's voice is so kind, like a retired old man who asks an old friend from many years ago to accompany him on his trip.

"Haha, it turns out that I'm still a useful person......" Zhou Jiawei let out a nervous laugh, and the poignant laughter was far more moving than the crying.

It's just that no one who can stand here will change their minds because of his cry, whether it is the "Dragon King" Palau or Pachala, they are all looking at him, waiting for his choice.

"My choice is...... I'll kill you!"

Zhou Jiawei's eyes were red, he suddenly roared, used all his strength, jumped up from the ground, and pounced on the "Dragon King" Palau, for the first time in decades, he mustered up the courage to fight against this demonic old man, and I am afraid it was also the last time in his life!

It's just that the difference in strength is real, and it is not transferred by his will, if the will is useful, what else is the strength to do?

When Zhou Jiawei was young, he still had a bit of blood and courage, and he also cut people by himself, and even went to the jungle to fight with people, but decades of pampering have long made him lose the ability to fight hard, not to mention, the person he is attacking now is the "Dragon King" Palau, a demon-like powerful old man.

Syllable!

Before he could pounce on the dragon king, Pachala kicked him in the chest with a whip kick that struck him in the chest. Hit the wall and bounced off again, Bai Sensen's bone stubble pierced the muscles and even exposed the outside.

"You made a wrong choice, it's a pity, I've always liked you. Palau, the "Dragon King", had a look of sadness on his face.

Zhou Jiawei endured the severe pain, smiled hard, but didn't say anything more, he didn't know the "Dragon King" Palau on the first day, and he knew the cruelty of the Dragon King to the traitor, but he didn't expect these cruel methods to be useful to him one day.

"Take him and his four children to the river, and after throwing them into the river, blow this whistle, my faithful children have not had a good meal for a long time. ”

Palau, the "Dragon King", handed Pachala a rough whistling made of wood.

"Master, don't you need to leave a person, Huaguo's assets are not easy to ship. Pachala asked.

"No, his secretary Paddy is a very useful lad. "Dragon King," said Palau.

"Yes, my master!" said Pachala.

......

More than an hour later, Zhou Jiawei was dragged to the river like dead dogs, and his four children were tied up and lying beside him.

"Dad, help me, Dad......" The youngest Zhou Junju is only eleven years old, and he has never known what the underground world is, and he doesn't even know what Zhou Jiawei has done.

"Alas......" Zhou Jiawei was full of tears, lying on the ground hard, unable to bear to look at his child, his heart was like a knife, but he was helpless.

For the first time, he knew that the four words of helplessness were so painful, and for the first time, he understood how painful everyone he had killed before, and if there was an afterlife, I would definitely choose another path

Maybe at that time, I should work harder, maybe I can be admitted to high school, in this case, then I should be teasing the child at home now, Zhou Jiawei suddenly thought.

"Let's throw the small ones down first. Pachala's words shattered his illusions.

According to his instructions, one of his subordinates lifted Zhou Junju to the river, raised it high, and prepared to throw it downward.

When Zhou Jiawei heard the child's scream, he couldn't hold back the pain in his heart anymore, and with all his strength, he raised his head, stared at his child, and shouted loudly: "God, save me!"

Click!

It was as if the shutter was pressed, and the whole world suddenly stopped, and everything stopped changing.

Pachala's slightly hideous smile froze on his face, Zhou Junju's frightened tears condensed in his eyes, the surging river was like ice, and a lizardman in the river poked out half of his head, and his big mouth opened a slit, revealing Bai Sensen's teeth, but he couldn't open them again.

Even the clouds in the sky and the surrounding mountain winds were all still, and the only one who could still move was Zhou Jiawei.

"This ......" Zhou Jiawei was stunned, even more frightened than when he first saw the "Dragon King" Palau decades ago.

"Do you want to be rescued?" a voice came from above the nine heavens.

"I think!" Zhou Jiawei roared desperately, trying to grasp this life-saving straw.

"And what price are you willing to pay?" the voice continued.

"I am willing to give everything, my property, my life, my freedom, and even my soul, as long as you can save my child!" Zhou Jiawei shouted.

"As you wish, I hope you will remember your oath!" the voice said meaningfully.

Syllable!

With the crisp sound of glass breaking, everything in front of Zhou Jiawei's eyes quickly disappeared, like smoke, disappearing without a trace.

Immediately afterwards, Zhou Jiawei only felt that there was an emptiness under his body, as if he had fallen into an infinite abyss, and he couldn't help screaming and waking up from his sleep.

Hush!

Zhou Jiawei sat up suddenly, and let out a long breath, everything in front of him was so familiar, it was still his own bedroom, everything just now seemed to be a dream, but all the details were so real, as if it were real.

Dreamy, real, is it because I've been under too much pressure lately?

Zhou Jiawei took out his mobile phone and called his eldest son, which rang for three or four minutes before the phone was connected.

"Dad, what's the matter, what time is it, why is this call?" came the eldest son's yawn from the other side.

"It's okay, I dialed it wrong. Zhou Jiawei sighed, hung up the phone directly, and didn't say anything more.

After sitting on the bed for a while, Zhou Jiawei climbed out of bed, poured a glass of red wine, shook his head, put the glass down again, opened the bedroom door, and planned to go to the living room to sit, look at the moon, and relax.

When the bedroom door opened, Zhou Jiawei was startled, only to see a dark figure sitting next to the coffee table in front of the floor-to-ceiling window in the living room, pouring himself a drink.

Strangely, the moonlight shone on his body like snow, but it was still dark, and he couldn't see what it looked like.

"Friend, on that road?" Although Zhou Jiawei was not shocked, he slowly retreated.

"I've done what you wanted, do you remember your oath?" the Shadow asked him back.

Zhou Jiawei's face froze, and then he burst into tears, "plopped", and knelt down!
