As soon as I entered the village, a dozen or so half-grown children ran out of their houses shouting and circling around. Betsy looked a little embarrassed, and said to them: "Go, go, this time I came back by passing by, but I didn't bring any gifts for you."
Although there was a little disappointed expression on the small faces, the children ran away laughing and laughing. Ling looked at the man in front of him strangely, and Betsy pulled the brim of the cowboy hat with his hand, lowered his head and said softly: "The resources in the village are very limited, and we have to compete with mutant beasts for territory. Since I was sensible , everyone’s life is not good. Until I met him, I was able to use the money I earned from him to improve the village. Now everyone’s life is much better than before, but unfortunately, I can’t help them much anymore.”
Zero looked him up and down like the first day he met Betsy. The latter smiled and said: "Don't look at me like that. I can be ruthless to people outside, but these people, I can't do it. And without them , I think I have become a lunatic like Pedafini. At least, with these family members, I will not feel empty."
Zero silence.
Indeed, if there is no restraint and check and balance of too great power, people will go crazy. The main reason is the emptiness in my heart that is like a black hole that is constantly devouring my soul. In order to fill the emptiness in their hearts, many people have become lunatics who only know how to kill or indulge, but these things can never fill the hole in their hearts.
So that hole will only get bigger and bigger, and in the end it can't help but devour others and ruin itself.
The big bald man who stopped Ling and others on the sentry tower before carried a machine gun and walked to Betsy's side, and then looked at them cautiously. Betsy said lightly: "This is very rude, Lavelle, they are my guests."
"Okay, guest. It's the first time you bring guests here over the years. It's really strange." Lavel laughed and punched Betsy: "How long are you going to stay this time? Maya knows You must be overjoyed to be back, eh..."
Betsy gave the big man a punch and pushed him back a few steps, and there was so much more that Ling held him from behind so that he didn't fall down. This is why Lavelle was surprised. He looked Betsy up and down and frowned: "Are you injured?"
Lavelle is the most powerful man in this village except Betsy, but he only has the power of the fourth level. And he knew that Betsy was an eighth-level powerhouse, not to mention being punched by him, even if he was standing and let him punch ten or a hundred punches, he would not frown. But now, a light punch made the man back again and again. The weakness from Betsy's body was clearly conveyed to the big man's head through Lavelle's fist. He was curious, who could hurt Betsy
Betsy smiled bitterly, but said jokingly: "Yeah, I was seriously injured. I don't plan to leave this time when I come back this time. You all have to support me in the future. Just treat it as my helper." interest."
"What nonsense, as long as we have something to eat, we won't miss you. But it hurts..."
"Don't ask my friend." Betsy said lightly: "I remember you should go hunting at this time, the active season of those wild animals is coming soon, I remember there are several dens of mountain wolves nearby, You seem to have to clean them up first."
"Okay, okay, I'll find a few boys and leave. Greet Maya for me." Lavelle showed a simple and honest smile, and waved goodbye.
"He always talks a lot, but he is very kind. When I'm not around, he takes care of Maya for me. By the way, Maya is my wife." When Betsy said this, the expression on her face stretched Come on, smile from the bottom of your heart. As if thinking of something, he added: "Sorry, she doesn't know what I'm doing outside? So if possible, I hope..."
"I only want that thing, we won't talk too much about other things." Zero interrupted him and said lightly.
Betsy chimed in, and said sincerely, "Thank you."
He walked through most of the village with a few people, and almost everyone who saw Betsy, whether male, female, old or young, would greet him. Judging by the good-natured smiles on everyone's faces, Betsy is very popular in the village. After all, everything this man gained from working hard outside was used in this village, so naturally no one would dislike him.
Finally, they stopped at the only two-story house in the village. On the balcony on the second floor, a woman is drying clothes. Her movements are not brisk, on the contrary they are very slow. The hands are always groping for something, and only after confirming the clothes are draped on a wooden pole. However, her hearing was very keen. She was on the second floor, but she heard footsteps downstairs.
So the woman lowered her head, it was a graceful face. It doesn't look pretty, but it is very fresh and gives people a very comfortable feeling. She has long flaxen-colored hair with a soft color, which is exactly the same as her temperament. It's just that her big eyes were blank. She looked down and didn't know who was coming. The woman smiled and asked, "Is it Lavelle? Don't pretend, I heard your footsteps."
Betsy's eyes darkened.
Zero looked at the woman, then looked at Betsy, who said indifferently: "Maya was born in a cave, it can be said that her childhood was spent in a dark environment, so her eyes have degenerated... "
Although Betsy's voice was not high, the woman upstairs had already heard it. Her expression froze, and Dou Da's tears welled up in her eyes: "Betsy, is that you, Betsy?"
"It's me, dear!" Betsy said loudly, "I'm back, and I'll never leave you again!"
The woman yelled happily, then turned around and groped into the room. A moment later, the downstairs door opened, and Maya ran out and rushed into Betsy's arms. Seeing the two of them embracing each other tightly, Ling San was speechless.
Sometimes, happiness doesn't have to be inexhaustible money, or inexhaustible power, or the highest power holder. Happiness can sometimes be a trivial thing, such as two people who love each other can hug each other tightly. For them, this moment is happiness.
Just like the two embracing people in front of Zero, even if the world is destroyed in the next moment. At least at this time, it is enough to be able to listen to each other's heartbeat and feel each other's body temperature.
After a long time, the two parted reluctantly. Maya realized that Betsy did not come back by herself, and asked in surprise, "Who are these?"
"My friend. Maya, go get us dinner." Betsy said with a smile.
Maya nodded happily: "Betsy has never brought friends back. That's great, Betsy, take these friends to the living room first, and I'll go prepare dinner right away. It just so happened that Lavelle shared some Give me the wolf meat, I marinated it, just enough to make steak for you to eat."
After excitedly calling a few people into the house, Maya went to the kitchen to get busy. The living room in the house is not big, and the decoration is very ordinary, but it is full of warmth. Whether it is the hand-woven cloth mat, the flower basket weaved by myself, or a bunch of wild flowers placed in the flower basket, the owner's intentions are everywhere. In Zero's view, these things have more extraordinary value than expensive commodities.
There was a faint soft light in Betsy's eyes, and she stroked the bunch of fresh wild flowers with her fingers: "She is always like this, she can always decorate the house with the warmest picture even though her eyes are invisible. Do you know? When I was about to leave, I felt it was a cruel choice."
"If I would feel the same way. A warm home, a woman who loves you. I would rather exchange the whole world for such wealth." Zero said lightly.
Betsy nodded: "Yes, it's a pity that we can't help it a lot. So every time I will leave cruelly, but this is all right, I have no choice but to stay forever."
When she said this, Betsy felt a sense of relief.
Feng coughed dryly at this moment, and said: "Excuse me, Mr. Betsy. Do you think you should hand over the important thing to us first, and then you and your wife can catch up on the past?"
Betsy slapped his head and said with a smile: "Sorry, I almost forgot the business. Wait a moment."
After speaking, he walked towards the gate, squatted down, and threw off the carpet at the entrance. Betsy groped on the ground, pressing down with her hands. A hand-sized floor tile sank, followed by a hidden compartment that opened. Betsy reached into the hidden compartment on the ground, and picked up a box after a while.
He didn't hide anything during the whole process. After closing the secret compartment, Betsy put the box on the table in the living room, and then moved it to Zero's eyes.
Zero opened the box, and a file accessor was placed flat inside. Betsy said: "Every time I communicate, I have made a backup and stored it in this little thing. You can take it and have a look. If you send it back to Asgard for a technical appraisal, it can be used as evidence to testify against him. .”
After a pause, Betsy said seriously again: "But I hope you can kill him on the battlefield, you know, it's not bad for you or me, is it?"
"Thank you for your evidence." Zero picked it up and handed it to Feng.
Feng took out a pocket brain and connected the access device. Zero continued: "But how to deal with it, I can't give you an accurate answer now. I can only say, try not to cause trouble to you. Not for you, but for your wife."
Betsy gave a slight sign, then nodded vigorously and said, "Thank you. But I have never brought anyone here before, so he probably won't know that I am hiding here. But you, take it as my advice. Don't let He opened the domain, if it is necessary to fight, we must kill him with all our strength at the first moment!"
At this time, images began to form in Feng's brain. He moved the brain to Zero's eyes, and Zero directly used fast forward. Anyway, with the data processing speed of his current brain, he can completely record all these images by browsing. In just a few minutes, Zero has read a large number of communication records. In these videos, although Tyr has always avoided letting himself appear in the window, he even modified his appearance through instruments in many cases. I have to say that this person is very cautious, even when communicating with his subordinates, he has changed his voice, appearance and appearance. However, no matter modifying the sound or appearance, it can still be restored if compared with sophisticated instruments.
What's more, no matter how shrewd people are, there will be times when they are negligent. In these years-long communication records, there happened to be one or two pictures that exposed Tyre's true face. And this is the credential that Betsy uses to protect himself, but now he has handed it over to Zero.
After reading it, Zero nodded in satisfaction. With this evidence in hand, he was not afraid of Tyre's denial. All there was to worry about was Douglas' intentions, if he wanted to go along and expand his territory through Tyre's hand. So instead of ending this war, it will intensify.
When the time comes, how will Ling Shuang deal with herself
For this question, Zero has no answer for the time being, and now he can only take one step at a time.
Not long after, there was a strong smell of meat coming from the kitchen. Maya poked her head out from the kitchen and said, "Betsy, help me clear the table, we can eat soon."
"Yes, dear," said Betsy cheerfully.
Night fell.
A few people have not eaten well in order to hurry these days. On the way, they either used nutrients to satisfy their hunger, or randomly called a few snow beasts and roasted them indiscriminately. It's just for hunger, but it's not delicious. But tonight, the meat steak cooked by Maya is different. After beating and marinating the meat of mountain wolf, the meat steak cooked with warm fire is not only delicious, but also exudes the fragrance of seasoning, which makes people smell He couldn't help moving his index finger.
After this meal, Feng alone ate four steaks. He devoured it as if he hadn't eaten for months, and finally he couldn't stand Zero anymore. If he hadn't coughed dryly, I'm afraid that when Maya smiled and pushed her steak towards Feng, this guy would have the audacity to accept it all.
After finishing the meal, Zero got up to say goodbye. When Maya heard that they were leaving, she was surprised and said, "Why are you in such a hurry? It's getting late now. It's not safe to walk in the mountains at night. You'd better stay for one night and leave after dawn tomorrow."
For this kind and gentle woman, Zero had a good impression, so he smiled and said: "No, we still have some urgent matters to deal with, so I won't bother you and Mr. Betsy."
"this... "
Maya wanted to say something else, but Betsy tapped her mouth lightly with her finger, and said softly: "Let them go. Don't underestimate them, each of them has the power not to lose to me." oh."
Hearing that Betsy was so nice, the hospitable woman nodded and said, "Okay, then please be careful."
Betsy and Maya took them all the way to the entrance of the village. When the three of them walked away, Maya's soft laughter could still be heard in their ears, as if Betsy said something to make her happy. Zero smiled slightly, this village really made people feel very warm. Zero hoped that they could continue to live independently like this, and when they returned to the foot of Tulash Mountain, the smile on Zero's face had disappeared.
For him, Betsy and Maya, and the village, were just episodes in his life. It can be heartwarming, and it won't be forgotten later. However, when he set foot on Tulash Mountain again, a cruel world was waiting for him again!
