056 The Moment of Victory and Loss

PreviousBack to directoryNext
Blood splattered.

It is the fresh blood of horse thieves.

He didn't even have time to scream.

The ten-person leader who was not pulled away quickly hid, but was hit in the leg. After being stunned for a moment, he burst out wailing in severe pain.

Wu Da and the other ten men raised their arms to cover their faces. After regaining their composure, they lowered their hands and stared at the blood on the ground in front of them with their eyes wide open. Their hearts were still beating fast.

There were also pieces of mud in the air peeling off the landslide and falling down.

Xia Zhaoyi held a long log with the other end stuck on the landslide, leaned out and looked down.

Wu Dal was stunned, raised his head with some feeling, and his eyes met with Xia Zhaoyi's.

Xia Zhaoyi blinked and smiled.

Not even dead.

If she backed away in shock, turned around and ran away, Wu Tat could catch up immediately.

Her smile and open face made Wu Da stunned for a moment.

"Child slave?" The ten-man leader also saw it.

Wu Da turned around and ran up the high slope over there, striding to catch up.

The ten-man leader wanted to chase after him, but was pulled back by his companion: "Help me!"

The horse thief, who was in his forties, wiped his hands and ran away after moving Wang Dong's body.

The older you get, the easier it is to believe in unknown mysteries. I always feel that it is better to stay away from such corpses that have been soaked in water for a long time. It is unlucky.

Sure enough, there is nothing wrong with doing this.

The rocks over there and the blood underneath were shocking, but the two ten-man leaders were still performing the great love in the world.

He wanted to stay away anyway, who knew if there would be a second boulder.

He also turned around and walked back to the pier calmly.

Wu Da chased quickly. He grew up here and knew the terrain here very well.

I took a shortcut and climbed up from there. My skills are not as agile as when I was young, but I still have a strong body through years of exercise.

He pulled out the knife in his hand and looked around as he walked: "Come out! I see you!"

The air pressure was oppressively dull, the air was filled with the moisture of mud after rain, and there was no wind at all.

It is surrounded by darkness and deep vegetation. Not far ahead is the long-abandoned crenellation of the wall, and on the other side is an enemy tower.

Wu Da tightened his grip on the knife in his hand. Although he was alert, he did not appear to be overly nervous. He moved carefully step by step.

But what he didn't know was that a pair of eyes were watching him quietly under the slope in the distance.

Xia Zhaoyi's expression was cold, and his face, which had always been gentle and smiling, had no warmth at this time.

She is a tiger ready to hunt, but if she is not careful, she will turn from a tiger into a lamb.

"Come out!" Wu Da shouted angrily again, "Who are you?"

It was quiet everywhere, without any sound.

At this time, the wind picked up slightly, and the grass and trees in the mountains began to sway slightly.

Wu Da was on full alert and did not let up at all.

A few plump raindrops fell down, and he didn't even give himself a chance to look up at the weather.

Xia Zhaoyi always maintained a half-kneeling posture, motionless, holding a piece of iron in his hand, still waiting patiently.

The wind gradually began to howl, getting louder and faster, and the rain then fell in heavy torrents.

If a place already has a dangerous atmosphere, it would be foolish to expose yourself.

Wu Da didn't intend to stay any longer. He watched and retreated towards the enemy tower over there.

Xia Zhaoyi's slender eyebrows pressed lightly, sinking like rain, and she held the iron piece in her hand tighter and tighter.

The sky gradually changes color and the wind and clouds surge.

It's now!

Xia Zhaoyi suddenly jumped up and threw three stones in his hand.

At the same time, there was a thunder in the sky, purple lightning split the sky, the mountains suddenly turned white, and it was like blindness when you opened your eyes.

The stone flew towards him, and Wu Da avoided it in response, and he also slashed the blunt knife in his hand defensively.

Hearing the sound of clothes blowing behind his ears, he was startled and hurriedly turned around.

There was a sudden pain in his throat, and his eyes suddenly dilated.

Xia Zhaoyi fell to the ground, then quickly got up, half-kneeling to steady her body, gasping for air, her whole body soaked by the rain.

Wu Da turned around and reached out to pull out the iron piece from the back of his neck, blood spurting out.

He looked at the girl in front of him with wide eyes.

Another bolt of thunder and lightning reflected the girl's face as white as snow, her eyes bright, and her eyes were as cold as a bone-piercing weapon.

Wu Da opened his mouth and wanted to speak, but he spit out blood.

He grabbed the big knife and the iron piece with difficulty and tried to rush towards her to give her the final blow, but he stumbled and fell to the ground.

Xia Zhaoyi picked up a stone and walked slowly over, looking down at him with a smile on his face.

The increasingly strong feeling of suffocation made Wu Da's face turn red. He glared at the girl fiercely, and the fear of dying made him tremble all over.

Xia Zhaoyi curved her lips and smiled: "Goodbye."

She raised her hand, her palms loosened, and the stone fell straight from her hand and fell into a small puddle of water, causing a slight splash of rain.

Wu Da stared at the stone and those water splashes, and the last glimmer of light in his eyes completely dissipated.

Thunder and lightning crisscrossed each other, and after less than two hours of silence, the sky became violent again.

Xiao Wu stood in front of the window, staring outside blankly, feeling anxious and not knowing what to do.

After standing for a while, she came back and sat down next to Tongpu. Her heartbeat was pounding and she was running very fast.

There was no candlelight in the room, and there was only one lantern hanging in the courtyard. It was blown around by the strong wind, and the weak light was completely negligible.

Xiao Wu felt uncomfortable in his heart, almost breathless, and wanted to cry but could not make a sound.

"Bah bang bang!" A slight knock on the door came.

Xiao Wu was stunned and hurriedly went over to open it.

Xiaorong was wet, holding on to the door frame and panting heavily.

This time, Xiao Wu really cried.

"Sister! Where have you been!"

Xiao Rong was too tired to speak and could only breathe.

Xiao Wu helped her into the house.

There was also a girl in the room, who was relatively young. Looking at them like this, she was a little stunned.

Xiao Wu went to close the door, turned around and fetched a clean cloth from the cupboard.

"Quickly wipe it." Xiao Wu said urgently.

Xiao Rong wiped her face, shivering from the cold, and walked towards the cabinet.

After taking out a set of clean clothes and placing them next to the shop, she stood there blankly without speaking.

"Sister?" Xiaowu looked at her.

Xiao Rong blinked her eyes, looked away, wiped the rainwater from her hair with a rag, and suddenly started crying.

Xiaowu panicked: "Sister, what's wrong with you? What happened?"

Xiao Rong sobbed, trying to hold back her cries, but failed, and her sobs became even worse.

"Sister?" Xiaowu was at a loss.

Xiao Rong looked back at her, wiped away her tears, and breathed: "It's okay, you go to bed first."

At this time, there was another thunder and lightning outside the house, and the window lattice was illuminated with a miserable white color. Xiaorong looked back at the house in shock, with his back to the window sash.

"elder sister!"

Xiao Wu was so angry that she cried again.

Xiao Rong didn't say anything. Listening to the sound of wind and rain outside the door, her heart suddenly calmed down and her eyes became hard.

Actually, there's nothing to be afraid of.

Isn't that what this mountain is like?

No one is clean, not one.

Not afraid.

I'm not afraid!
