"Only when a person is alive can he have everything."
"You...have been here for so long and you don't want to go see her?"
Zhou Qing could vaguely sense the indignation in that man's heart. After experiencing life and death disasters, he had lost all hope. Now he felt that everything could happen again, but he also felt a different kind of fear, a fear of the future.
.
I don’t know how to face people I haven’t seen for many years, and I don’t know how to deal with them. Maybe if I died, the situation would be better now. As the night gets darker, the patrols in this house become sparse.
"Why did you save me?"
The man in gray looked desolate. Facing everything now, he vaguely missed his humble beginnings. For her, as long as he could take a look at her from a distance, he would be satisfied. For his daughter, as long as she was fine.
"I saved you because you are worth saving!"
"Liu Yi is dead. Although you did not kill him, it is not important. What is important is that your family has a chance to reunite. After a month, you have to do something for me."
Shaking his head gently, the word love is a demonic barrier in the mind. It can be transformed into the love of brothers, the love of robes, the love of men and women, the love of family... Physical injuries can be healed, but mental injuries are difficult to heal.
.
He was not given too much time to think about it. If he had not made a decision in a month, then he would do it for him. After his words fell, a shallow silence returned to the entire place.
The man was silent and pondered for a long time, still looking deep into the house.
****
Mrs. Hu slept alone in her room, with the door and windows tightly closed. As a young woman, it was impossible not to be afraid of something like this happening to her family. She had not been able to sleep for several days in a row.
Lying in bed today, I couldn't calm down the fear in my heart. The death of my husband kept popping up in my mind. Coupled with the strange appearance I saw when watching a play in the theater a month ago, a more complicated emotion lingered in my heart.
It was a kind of pain, a kind of sadness, a kind of contradiction that I don't know whether to protect or conceal. When I fell asleep with these unclear emotions, nightmares followed, and I was covered in fragrant sweat.
In the dream, everyone was running for their lives in the raging No. 1 Scholar, with cries, shouts, and sounds of fighting coming and going... She was also among the fleeing people. Suddenly she heard a different sound, clear and strong——
It's a baby's cry!
She looked back, but she couldn't find her anyway. She ran helplessly in the sea of fire, shouting four words - my child, with a panicked and desolate expression.
"my child!"
Mrs. Hu woke up with a scream, her forehead was covered with beads of sweat, and her heart was beating violently. She patted her chest gently with her hands, trying to calm herself down. However, the next moment, her peripheral vision glanced at the image projected on the floor.
Shadow suddenly gasped in fright.
The door was obviously closed tightly, but when did it open, there was still a figure holding a sword standing in the middle, and several guards from the house had fallen around.
"Madam, she slept so peacefully!"
It was originally a dry night, but a thunder flashed out of thin air, illuminating the man's face. A strange hawk-beak mask, and a pair of fierce and vicious eyes stared straight at him.
Mrs. Hu's eyes widened, and the fear in her heart reached its peak the moment she saw his mask. This man... she had seen it before, on the day her husband You Sima Liu Yi was killed!
"It's you!"
Now, the weird man with the hawk-beak mask appeared again, and he became more and more frightened. He huddled under the brocade quilt and kept moving towards the corner, hoping to feel more safe.
"Who are you anyway?"
The trembling crisp sound swirled, and the delicate face was filled with pale color.
"A man who wants his things back!"
The weirdo with the hawk-beak mask responded coldly, saying that he didn't gain anything last time, and this time, he must get the secret.
"Does your husband owe you anything?"
Mrs. Hu's heart was still trembling, and she was not sure what the other party meant.
"Why are you pretending to be confused!"
"That's the treasure our brothers got from your Huoyu Villa!"
The hawk-mouthed man shouted viciously.
As soon as she said this, Mrs. Hu was shocked again. The scene of the Huoyu Villa being bloodbathed quickly flashed in her mind. Her bright eyes were full of disbelief, staring at the person in front of her and his clothes in fear.
It has changed, my hairstyle has changed, it is no longer what it was back then.
"You...you are the Saburo with broken hair back then!"
However, he still transformed him into the same villain as before, wearing an eagle-beak mask to cover his ugly appearance. Another thunder struck the sky, and the terrifying white light once again illuminated the opponent.
"As a descendant of Huoyu Gong, Liu Yi killed my brother and stole the treasure. Are you not aware? Tell me quickly! Where is the treasure? Otherwise I will make your life worse than death!"
The ugly shadow walked into the room little by little, and the aura of terror became stronger and stronger, like a wild beast slowly devouring its weak prey. Suddenly, he jumped up on the bed and pointed his sword at Mrs. Hu.
.
"Let her go!"
"As a vulture, you came here with Ji Wuye on your back. If he finds out, what will happen to you? If you want to know the whereabouts of the treasure, you can ask me!"
Just when Mrs. Hu was filled with great fear, words full of anger and ridicule burst out from the door, and a tall, gray-haired middle-aged man shouted in a deep voice.
In his hand, he held the sword he had just picked up from the fallen guard of the palace. The sword pointed at him, and a faint red light flashed under his feet. The sword light surged, forcing him to capture the thief.
"What are you!"
The vulture was equally furious. He turned slightly and looked at the man who was approaching him with a sword. There was a hint of ruthlessness in his sinister face. Although he did not know the man, anyone who dared to block him would die.
The sword light came to him instantly. The vulture dodged sideways and turned somersault in the air. He held the sword in his left hand and attacked the inexplicable man. If he could know his identity and the treasure, he would let him know what regret is.
Two innate-level warriors were fighting. The sword light was swirling, and the entire exquisite and luxurious room was in chaos. Suddenly, the two were evenly matched.
"Ma'am, are you okay?"
At some point, Zi Nu, holding a chain snake soft sword, also appeared in the corner of the room. Looking at the two people fighting fiercely, she flashed and appeared in front of Mrs. Hu on the bed, whispering softly.
Asked by ear.
Looking over, her expression couldn't help but be stunned. At this moment, Mrs. Hu's bright eyes were wide open. She looked quietly at the handsome middle-aged man who was fighting with the thief in the field. She gently covered her mouth with one hand, silently, as if
It's unbelievable, as if you can't believe it.
However, after a few breaths, hot tears fell from the corners of his eyes and stained the clothes. The other hand had already held the fire agate at some point. The gray figure in front of him was the same as the high-spirited man in armor.
