"Hey, you're still alive?"
The young man brought the torch closer to see the girl's appearance, and was slightly surprised - the girl's age and appearance completely matched that of Lin Feng who jumped off the cliff, so it was very likely that she had not escaped. However -
He raised his head and glanced at the top of the cliff.
He looked thoughtful.
The shadows on this cliff, which was more than ten feet high, were like a ferocious beast lying dormant here, preparing for hibernation, with its mouth wide open, greedily waiting for its prey to fall in. He observed carefully for a while, and roughly understood how Lin Feng was lucky enough to save his life.
There are many solid vines growing near the cliff here.
Thanks to the cushioning of these vines, Lin Feng was saved from being smashed into a pulp. Although he was still alive, he was still scratched, cut, and had broken bones, so he was exhausted and hung on the tree. Without thinking, the young man swung out a dark green martial energy.
As the vines were destroyed, the poisonous snakes that were coiled on the vines, flicking their tongues and aiming at their prey, were also blown into pieces.
Without the thorns on her back from the snakes, Lin Feng finally breathed a sigh of relief. She had been hanging on the tree for several hours, but no one responded. In addition, she had not completely recovered from the cold, her limbs were weak, and she had no energy, so she could barely save herself.
As if things weren't bad enough, a triangular-headed venomous snake with a green body, as thick as a finger and as long as an arm, crawled out from nowhere!
She had no choice but to hold on and confront the poisonous snake.
From dawn to dusk and then to late night.
The poisonous snake kept lurking at her side, and Lin Feng's spirit was devastated. In addition, her body was exhausted to the point of being exhausted. If the young man had not arrived in time, she might have fainted and fallen asleep, and her fate could be imagined.
Instead of falling to death, he was bitten to death by a poisonous snake!
She felt reconciled just thinking about it!
"Thank you for saving me!"
The crisis was over, and Lin Feng's tense nerves suddenly relaxed. He forced a weak smile and thanked his savior.
The young man asked her, "Your name is Lin Feng?"
Lin Feng was hungry and thirsty at this time, his throat was so dry that it almost smoked, and he endured the discomfort and answered in a hoarse voice: "It is you."
"It seems I saved the right person."
After saying this, the young man looked meaningfully at the vibrant vines on the cliff - they only appeared here and nowhere else; the trees that should have shed their leaves long ago were still lush and leafy at this time - he knew there was a problem, but now was not a good time to ask about it.
He added: "It was Shen Tang who asked me to save you."
This sentence seemed to inject a shot of adrenaline into Lin Feng. His eyes, which were about to close in exhaustion, suddenly opened. His eyes were bright enough to reflect the bright moon in the sky. The girl excitedly grabbed his arm guard and said, "You mean my dear? Did my dear ask the general to save me?"
The young man nodded: "Yeah."
He wasn't lying.
Mama did ask him to keep an eye on the "relatives".
The young man said, "You fall asleep first, and I will take you upstairs."
Going up is much easier than coming down.
The young man directly activated the Wudan Tiger Talisman, holding Lin Feng with one hand, and condensed the weapon with his free hand, then threw it out casually, and plunged it into the cliff. Then he repeated the same method several times, using the force of the weapon inserted into the cliff to easily jump onto the cliff.
The person who is most happy that Lin Feng is still alive is Tu Rong.
The tears that had just stopped started falling again.
"Junior Sister Lin Feng..."
Half of his face was covered with crystal snot and tears.
“Wuuuu… Junior sister, you are still alive… Wuuuu…” Having lost all his blood relatives overnight, his only teacher was missing, and his fellow junior sister escaped death, Tu Rong felt great sorrow but also a bit of ecstasy, and he wanted to hug Lin Feng and cry bitterly.
And that’s exactly what he did.
Lin Feng was also infected by his emotions.
She thought of her grandmother, mother, aunt, sister, and the maids who had grown up with her, who had also been killed at the foot of the icy cliff. Lin Feng had escaped that time, but he didn't expect that he would encounter the same desperate situation after many twists and turns.
For a moment, I couldn't help but feel sad.
Crystal clear tears slid down her eyes like pearls from a broken string. She couldn't hold back her crying, and her voice gradually grew louder.
Seeing these two half-grown children crying miserably, the young man, as a member of the rebels and one of the accomplices who triggered this war, was not embarrassed at all. He just stood aside with his arms folded, watching them cry, calculating the time in his mind, and his mind wandering.
This child named Tu Rong, when he was angry, looked like a wolf cub, but now he looked like a fat and harmless piglet. But he was more interested in the little girl named Lin Feng in front of him. She was not an ordinary person, she looked a bit like Mama.
Neither of the two children paid any attention to him.
The young man was bored, so he went down a few more times. The bottom of the cliff was full of corpses whose internal organs were smashed to pieces. If they were not wrapped in a complete human skin, the broken internal organs and bones would have been scattered all over the ground. Tu Rong also recognized his grandparents and mother among them. The tears that had stopped for a while collapsed again. He hugged the corpses and cried loudly. He was exhausted and almost fainted while crying.
The young man waved his hand and asked the soldiers to bury the other bodies on the spot.
Hearing Tu Rong's breathless howling and occasional hiccups, the subordinates curled their lips and said, "The young general treats them too well."
Young man: "Why bother with two kids?"
The officer said, "These are not two ordinary children. Once their identities are known to the general, they will definitely come to embarrass you again."
The young man didn't care at all, and smiled carefreely: "Without these two children, my brother won't make things difficult for me? If he wants to make things difficult for me, he can make up ten or eight reasons without any reason. Just think of this as giving my brother a ready-made excuse, and saving him from having to rack his brains..."
After all, finding reasons requires thinking.
Brother, your brain...
Alas, it really makes things difficult for him.
The officials remained silent after hearing this.
On the other side, Tu Rong and Lin Feng also cried until they were exhausted, their faces were pale and pitiful. However, the negative emotions accumulated in their hearts were vented with their tears, and their spirits were better than before. Lin Feng raised his sleeves to wipe away his tears.
He said in a muffled voice: "I've made a fool of myself, my benefactor."
"It's okay, it's human nature." Looking at Lin Feng, whose face was covered in blood, the young man raised his hand and touched his waist, took out a bottle and threw it over, "Take it, it's effective, and it won't leave scars."
Tears are salty. Doesn’t it hurt when you cry like this
He felt pain just looking at it.
Tu Rong stammered a few times, unable to say thank you. This elder brother had indeed saved him, and had helped him collect the bodies of his grandparents and mother, saving them from being left to wander the wilderness as wandering ghosts. He had also returned his father's body to him...
but-
He looked stubborn and swallowed back what he was about to say.
Favor is favor, hatred is hatred. He would not hate the young man, but he could not be grateful to a rebel leader! Fortunately, the young man did not care about it. After handling the matter, the young man felt better, mounted his horse, waved his hand, and led his troops back to the camp.
Halfway through the journey, the morning light gradually brightened.
With the slightly warm light falling on his face, the young man looked far away in the direction of the main camp, and in the distance, only the vague outline of the walls of Xiaocheng remained.
Sigh.
The sun rises and the moon sets, day and night alternate.
Even the darkest night will eventually be illuminated.
But this world is different, darkness always shrouds people's hearts.
The young man sighed at the rising sun for a while, sneered, whipped his horse and rode back. As expected, he ran into the weird brother again at the gate of the camp. The young man went out in the middle of the night and got nothing. The young man was too lazy to even give him an extra look.
My brother was extremely unhappy to be ignored like this.
Young man: "Brother, since you are so interested in this matter, why don't you go talk to my father and the messenger and let me leave the task to you?"
The sworn brother's sinister eyes passed through the crowd and fell on Lin Feng and Tu Rong, or to be more precise, on Lin Feng alone. He smiled meaningfully, and it was unknown what he was thinking about. This look made Lin Feng feel uneasy, and she felt like a poisonous snake staring at her.
I couldn't help but shrink my neck.
The sworn brother said maliciously: "You led the troops out at night and came back at dawn, so you didn't return without success. I was wondering why you always refused to accept the beautiful girl given by father. It turns out that you like young girls like this, not old ones."
The young man's face darkened: "Brother, be careful with your words!"
My brother was not afraid at all.
I still feel that young people are pretending to be noble.
The whole "cleanliness" thing is just an act.
Once, in order to please the old man, his subordinates presented a pair of extremely beautiful twin sisters at a banquet. The old man was old, and he was not keen on women, but he was not indifferent to them either. If someone offered them to him, he would not refuse them under normal circumstances.
What's more, they are a rare pair of stunning beauties!
Her figure, appearance, and dancing talent are all perfect!
Even if he doesn't keep it himself, he will accept it as a reward and give it to his confidants.
The old man was satisfied and he liked it too.
Without waiting for him to ask for them, the old man generously gave them both away just because the barbarian looked up at the two women for a second longer - of course, the barbarian refused in the end, but in return he was praised and was rewarded with countless gold, silver and jewels if he didn't want the beauties.
When it was his turn to ask for it, he was scolded harshly and had to watch helplessly as the two women became the old man's concubines in his backyard.
My brother felt quite aggrieved.
How old is the old guy
Even though he is old and half buried in the ground, he can still give birth to two or three younger brothers and sisters in a year!
"What are you talking about? You and I are brothers, what can't we say?" The young brother laughed, "Since you like this, I'll keep an eye out for you later. Look at this young man you found, his face is so scarred, once there are scars, won't it be annoying to see?"
The young man kept a serious face and listened to his brother's sarcastic remarks.
After the latter had finished his chattering, the young man led his troops away with a stern face, and the troops passed by the young man's brother.
Vaguely, the brother felt the gaze that made him uncomfortable.
I looked over there according to my intuition, but I didn't catch the target.
My brother snorted coldly and walked away.
After returning to the tent, the young man said to Tu Rong: "You really impressed me. I thought you would lose your temper and rush up to fight him. If that happens, I can only let you die quickly. But it will be difficult to explain to Mama when she investigates..."
Tu Rong suppressed his nausea and swallowed the bloody taste in his mouth.
Just now, in order to bear the vengeance of exterminating his family, he bit the tip of his tongue, relying on the pain to suppress the raging anger in his heart. He gritted his teeth and said hoarsely, "I will twist his head off myself!"
The young man just smiled.
Commented: "This ambition... is OK..."
I know that this is just a matter of words.
How easy is it to twist off that brother's head
That godfather is still alive!
When only she, Tu Rong, and her savior were left in the tent, Lin Feng couldn't help but ask, "My benefactor, do you know where my husband is? If it's convenient, could you send us to meet him?"
The young man thought about it and said, "No."
Lin Feng's heart skipped a beat.
The young man said, "Mama is probably in Xiaocheng now, right? If I send troops to contact her, once she catches me, I'll be charged with 'collaborating with the enemy', and that won't be covered up with a few dozen military sticks. You guys just wait here for now..."
Lin Feng moved his lips.
I can't say anything capricious that can't be forced.
The soldiers in the barracks were all dressed up as rebels, so she knew that the benefactor who rescued them was the general of the rebel camp. She was trapped in the lair of wolves and tigers, and could only take one step at a time. Lin Feng was worried and absent-minded when a round longan pearl rolled to her feet.
Lin Feng was quite puzzled.
Young man: "Can you play beads?"
Lin Feng said: "Yes."
A look of joy appeared on the young man's face: "That's great, play with me."
Lin Feng said in embarrassment: "... I am still in mourning."
When the young man heard this, he didn't know what he was thinking and stopped worrying.
He turned around and went behind the screen to take out a box of things.
The box fell to the ground with a thump.
"It's to help you pass the time." He then looked at Tu Rong and said, "Go to the training ground. If you want to take revenge, don't waste your good bones."
It took Tu Rong a while to understand what the young man meant.
"Why...are you helping me like this?"
How could such a good person collude with the rebels
The young man thought for a long time: "Maybe we share the same suffering?"
His situation back then was much better than that of the little fat boy. He had the ability to protect himself. However, this little fat boy had talent but no time. Once he left the shelter, he would inevitably die.
"Don't cause me any trouble. I don't mind saving your lives." He had to say some ugly words first. He didn't want to be mistaken as a kind and upright person by the two half-grown children. "Otherwise, I can only ensure that you suffer less pain before you die..."
At noon, the old general suddenly asked about Tu Rong and the others. He was obviously aware of Lin Feng and Tu Rong's experience, and he was worried that his adopted son was raising a tiger to cause trouble. It would be fine if Lin Feng was just a girl, and his adopted son would take care of her and raise her for fun, but Tu Rong was different.
A good talent for martial arts.
He is still old enough to know things.
Who knows when he will stab you in the back
The young man pouted his lips nonchalantly and said, "He's just a kid, how can he turn the world upside down? I'm just keeping him for fun. It doesn't matter if he has any second thoughts or not, he can't hurt my son anyway. If he really has this kind of temper, my son will look up to him."
After hearing this, the old general stopped trying to persuade him.
Acknowledged this.
The young man was satisfied, but the person who reported the incident was very dissatisfied and was secretly jealous.
The atmosphere in the rebel camp was tense and a storm was about to come.
There was also a huge uproar in the outside world.
All forces, big and small, are ready to make a move.
The rumor that had previously died down was dug up again.
Ziwei goes to the northwest to ensure the unification of the world
Anyone with a discerning eye can see clearly that this rumor was spread intentionally by someone to build publicity and gild himself, and few people take it seriously.
But I never expected that the rumor would actually come true!
Xiaocheng is located in the northwest. Last night, a huge dragon shadow appeared in the sky, causing strange phenomena in heaven and earth, which somehow fits perfectly with the prophecy!
