Zhou Hu answered the phone. Although he didn't speak, his lips became whiter and whiter.
By the time he hung up the phone, Zhou Hu's hands were already shaking.
Zhou Hu, who is that person? The smiling tiger who is strategizing can actually tremble.
Then something bigger must have happened.
I didn't even notice that my voice was a bit obscure when I spoke: "What happened again?"
"The members of the Fanyao Division are rioting and are besieging our scattered people."
I almost choked to death with one breath. Sure enough, I went in the direction I was worried about. Fan Yaosi had already started to attack people. However, these people were not my relatives, but they were also precious lives.
Zhou Hu suddenly lowered his expression and said, "President-to-be, please make up your mind."
I glanced at him and automatically ignored the words "quasi-president": "Support."
"But the crusade is imminent, and our numbers are already exceeded by the total number of Fan Yaosi and those evil cultivators from abroad. If our combat power is damaged at this time..."
"It's all human lives, support." I used my firmest tone to block Zhou Hu's words.
As for Ban Yaosi, I can do it alone.
I don't know if Sister Hu Ming knew something, but the fox twitched in my arms. I quickly looked down at it, only to see her eyes still closed.
Didn't wake up.
The joy that had just risen was shattered again.
Shen Zhaoshan didn't like to think about the overall situation like Zhou Hu did. Hearing that everyone was under siege, he couldn't wait any longer. He immediately picked up the car keys and walked out while calling his own people to go for support.
Zhou Hu took out a breath and walked out anxiously.
I originally wanted to ask my master to help, but soon I learned that foreign evil cultivators across the country had also started riots. Not only my master, but also the Fifth Qiming, as well as the gods and ghosts from all over the country were in trouble.
of handling the situation.
In my opinion, this is just like trying to lure the tiger away from the mountain.
They transferred away my master and Fifth Qiming, the two big guys.
The place where the foreign evil cultivators rioted in Nanjiang City was far away from where the members of the Fanyao Division besieged the association members. It would be too late to wait until the Fifth Qiming to provide support.
I don't have many soldiers and horses, my master was transferred away, Sister Hu Ming turned into an ordinary fox, and the only one I can use is Wong Tai Sin.
Long Batian also went to support us with a whole house of soldiers and horses. We in this room all relied on Wong Tai Sin to protect us.
Wong Tai Sin was also unexpectedly serious. He stood in the middle of the living room, as if facing a formidable enemy, and the hair on his bun was all hairy.
I hugged the fox and sat on the rocking chair outside the balcony downstairs, looking at the stars that filled the sky.
Looking into the distance, high-rise steel buildings stand peacefully in silence. There are only a few cars passing by on the roads and bridges with their lights on.
Everything seems peaceful.
Under the calm, there are hidden dangers and turbulent waves.
The mobile phone on the coffee table beside me suddenly lit up. I opened it and found that it was a photo sent by Chen Xi. It was still daytime over there. Chen Xi and Han Ziqi were sitting in a shop drinking milk tea and eating desserts. Both of their faces were full of satisfaction.
smile.
I……
It seems like we are getting further and further away from them.
Ever since I came to Nanjiang City, I seem to be unable to go back to the happy life I had with children.
At dawn, Zhou Hu called.
"It's over. The rescue was successful. One of our people... was killed and seven injured. Fan Yaosi didn't want to fight anymore. Many earthly immortals died."
"...Well, come back."
One person died and seven were injured, but I didn’t feel too disturbed. Maybe I had already anticipated this outcome subconsciously.
After all, we have a life-or-death relationship with evil organizations like Ban Yaosi.
However, I heard the joints of my palms making a crisp sound.
The person on the other side of the phone heard a familiar cry: "Brother Shen, we thought we were done tonight, but luckily you guys came to save us."
It seems to be yellow hair.
Then came the voice of Shen Zhaoshan gnashing his teeth: "If Yun Nuanting hadn't asked us to come to support, you would have died tonight! Please tell me something when you get back! And Zhou Hu, you actually..." There was a lot of blah blah.
"No...it can't be..."
What gratitude, what favors, these are not important, I just want to protect the people I care about.
I hung up the phone, put the fox on the rocking chair, got up and went to the kitchen to make breakfast and served it to my second uncle.
My second uncle might be really old, but he choked up when he saw my haggard face after not sleeping all night.
"You, don't be too tired. You are only eighteen years old and you are still a child yourself."
In order not to worry my second uncle, I pretended to have a relaxed conversation with him.
Then he carried the fox downstairs and went to the crematorium according to the address sent by Shen Zhaoshan.
When we were in the car, Chaoyang called me. He said that he had already reported for me and that I didn't need to worry about the school. I could just do my thing seriously and he would be there for the rest.
This sentence may be the rare warmth I have felt during this period of time.
When we arrived at the crematorium, the air-conditioning hit our faces and the scorching heat was blocked out. The entire crematorium had a cold, metallic feel.
In front of an altar, everyone from the Nanjiang Association was present. They were all in a small corner, because there were a large number of people who were relatives and friends of the deceased.
The family members of the deceased cried until they fainted, woke up, and fainted again.
I stood in front of the group of us and turned around, looking back at the decadent faces, like lost dogs.
"What's his name?" I turned to ask Zhou Hu, pointing to the photo on the altar. It was a middle-aged man who looked very kind, but I would never see him again.
Zhou Hu's eyes turned red and he whispered: "Qi Xiongwei."
"Where is his immortal family? How to arrange it?"
"Some of them have already passed on to other people, some of them said that their fate has ended and they have gone back to the mountains to retreat, and some of them have to wait for Qi Xiangwei's reincarnation."
"Yeah." I nodded, "This is the best result."
The members of the Immortal Sect Association have been hit hard. It is not appropriate for me to say too much now. The more I say, the more their fighting spirit will dwindle.
Shen Zhaoshan simply told me that although the Fan Yaosi was stronger than us, it had suffered a lot of casualties and it was estimated that there would be no trouble in the near future.
Everyone got a breather.
After accompanying my third grandfather and my second uncle, I went to school.
The school was organizing military training and summer camps, and I was afraid that I wouldn't be able to participate. I had to meet with my counselor in person and explain the situation.
I'm not used to lying. If I tell the truth, I'm afraid the counselor will think I'm mentally ill, so I thought about my words for a while on the way there.
But I didn't expect that our counselor was actually an acquaintance of mine.
I looked behind the desk and saw the middle-aged woman who was nearly fifty years old and wearing red-rimmed glasses with her mouth wide open in surprise. I couldn't help but smile: "Director, it's you."
He was actually my dean when I was a child at Pingying Private School.
Twelve years have passed, things have changed, and it seems that the dean did not indulge himself because of his age. He worked hard and finally became a counselor at a key university in Nanjiang.
Fortunately, she knew my situation. After listening to what I said, the counselor patted my hand earnestly: "You kid, you have been different from others since you were a child. Just do whatever you want. You don't have to worry about the school.
There is a teacher."
"Thank you, teacher."
"Thank you for nothing. I always feel indebted to you. Besides, we are still fellow villagers. What you are doing now is to protect everyone. Without you, how can we live an ordinary and happy life? Nuanting, come on!!"
