Chapter 256: Inescapable Sadness

"Old man, what are you doing?"

Shen Tianshu felt a sharp pain in his wrist, and now everyone knew something was wrong.

She immediately stopped and tried hard to break free from the old lady's grasp.

But the old lady didn't know where she got the strength. She grabbed Shen Tianshu's wrist tightly and pulled him into the alley with all her strength, muttering something in her mouth.

But her voice was too soft, and the night wind was strong at the moment, so Shen Tianshu couldn't hear what she said clearly.

"Let go, or I'll be rude to you!" Shen Tianshu said, pulling out a silver needle from the hairpin.

Before Shen Tianshu could make a move, Xie Yan had already followed.

He grabbed the old lady's shoulders and pointed his fingertips directly on the acupuncture points.

"Ouch -" The old lady immediately felt that her whole arm began to feel weak and weak, and she slowly let go of Shen Tianshu's hand without her control.

Xie Yan took the opportunity to pull Shen Tianshu behind him. Without any mercy, he kicked the old lady to the ground with a flying kick.

"Ms. Tong, let's go back to the Tan family's old house first, and I'll ask someone to handle things here!"

At this time, Shen Tianshu was only followed by Xie Yan. He did not dare to leave even an inch. While protecting the person and walking back, he was vigilantly paying attention to the surrounding situation.

Unexpectedly, the old lady was kicked and the corners of her mouth were bleeding. She completely ignored the pain all over her body and quickly climbed to Shen Tianshu's feet.

"Ms. Tong, I'm sorry, I really had no choice but to..."

The old lady said, and without waiting for Shen Tianshu's reaction, she suddenly used the old tree root move, using her hands and feet together, to tightly wrap around Shen Tianshu, as if she would rather die than let go.

"Old man, what are you hiding, why don't you tell us..."

Before Shen Tianshu finished speaking, he saw a black shadow suddenly rush out of the dark alley.

The old lady immediately shouted like crazy: "Bao'er, my Bao'er - please return Bao'er to me quickly -"

Shen Tianshu was startled when he heard this and looked up in the direction of the person.

I saw a man in black standing not far away, holding a baby wrapped in a quilt in his arms.

This made Shen Tianshu feel even more uneasy.

A baby of this size was held by a stranger, and there was so much noise outside, but the baby didn't even cry or move.

I don’t know if I was frightened or if I was already...

She didn't dare to think any further.

The man in black seemed to see what she was thinking, and sneered: "Don't worry, the child is still alive, I just fed him some poison to avoid ruining my job.

"I just didn't expect that it was not him who did the bad things, but this old woman!"

The man in black's tone was full of disgust.

The old lady seemed to have been frightened by her for a long time. She could not help but tremble when she heard her speak.

When Shen Tianshu heard the man in black talking, he realized that this person was actually a woman.

"Since you are looking for me, then don't involve innocent people." Shen Tianshu said, "Return the child to the old man first, and come to me if you have anything."

"You have people following you all the time. Do you think I'm stupid?"

The old lady cried till she had runny nose and tears, and begged: "This heroine, I have called Mrs. Tong over. You should keep your word and return Bao'er to me..."

"Want a child?" The man in black raised his voice slightly, "Okay! Here you go!"

She said, picking up the child, suddenly exerting force, and throwing the child in the direction of Shen Tianshu.

"Be careful!" Shen Tianshu's legs were trapped by the old lady, but he still subconsciously leaned forward and reached out to catch the child.

Xie Yan grabbed her by the back collar and dragged her and the old lady back more than a foot.

"What are you doing, kid..." Before Shen Tianshu finished speaking, he felt a damp heat on his face, followed by a strong smell of blood.

Shen Tianshu was stunned at first, and then his eyes widened in disbelief.

A sword tip with cold light and blood had penetrated the child's body and was only an inch away from the tip of her nose.

There is also a drop of blood hanging on the tip of the sword.

The blood gushing out of the child's little body sprayed all over her face.

"No - Bao'er -" the old lady let out a heartbreaking scream, then rolled her eyes and fainted.

When the man in black saw that he had missed a hit, he threw away the child and the sword without hesitation, replaced it with a dagger and attacked again, as if he vowed to take Shen Tianshu's life.

At this time, Shen Tianshu stared at the child's blood-stained body, his whole body stiff and unable to move.

"Ms. Tong, be careful!"

Xie Yan pushed Shen Tianshu to a safe place in the corner, drew his weapon, and stepped forward to fight with the man in black.

As soon as the two people fought, Xie Yan immediately discovered that this person was the person who hurt him before.

With old and new grudges added together, Xie Yan became more and more merciless in his attacks, hitting the vital points with every move.

"Last time you bullied the minority and hurt me. This time I want to see what else you are capable of!"

The man in black knew that he was no match for Xie Yan, but at this time, someone had heard the noise outside and came out to check the situation.

It seems that it is impossible to deal with Lady Tong today.

Where there is life, there is hope.

The man in black decided not to fight anymore. After several feint moves to pretend to attack Shen Tianshu, he finally quickly retreated while Xie Yan turned around to protect him, retreated into the dark alley, and soon disappeared into the vastness. In the night.

Xie Yan's mission at this time is to protect Shen Tianshu's safety and not to pursue him.

After confirming that there was no danger around him, he immediately returned to Shen Tianshu.

I don't know when, Shen Tianshu walked back to the child again.

She knelt on the ground and pulled out the long sword inserted into the child's body. She completely ignored that the young life in front of her had stopped breathing forever. She desperately pressed her hands on the wound in a vain attempt to stop the blood that was still gurgling out.

Looking at the child covered in blood in his arms and smelling the strong smell of blood, Shen Tianshu was in a trance, as if he had returned to the day when the Jiang family was exterminated...

Is the niece, who is also young and innocent, like the baby in front of me, with a hole in her chest and blood all over her body?

Was she scared at the time?

Have you ever cried to find your parents?

Does it hurt?

Nothing is known about Shen Tianshu.

But whenever I think of these, I feel heartbroken.

Xie Yan has seen a lot of life and death since he was a child. He only has tasks in his heart. He has no way to empathize with him, and he doesn't know how to comfort him. He can only stay by his side quietly.

"Good boy, don't be afraid, aunt will save you..." Shen Tianshu completely ignored the blood, hugged the child tightly, put his lips to the child's ear, and comforted him in a very soft voice, "Don't worry, aunt's medical skills are very good, even if No matter how badly you are injured, my aunt will definitely be able to heal you..."

The lantern that fell on the ground stretched her shadow very long, and it was full of sadness that was too thick to be resolved...
