The dark clouds dispersed, and the thunder rumbled. The clamor of the lightning bolts and roars had faded away, as if it had all been an illusion.
The people who had just recovered from their shock looked at each other, and gathered their courage to ask their neighbors about what had just happened. Many figures moved about in the darkness, serving the various families and powers. The major event that had happened in Mingzhou City tonight was urgently needed to be investigated, for the important figures needed to know the truth … But the night had already returned to its original state, and the solitude and moonlight interweaved to reveal Mingzhou City's original appearance.
Hu Shouxin walked alone in the darkness. There were no lights on the lonely streets, but he still remembered the direction home.
Sun Lang had not been heavy-handed all along, but it had already shattered his will to fight again. The plan that he had come up with on the spur of the moment no longer had any meaning, because he discovered that the cause of everything was not so much worry for Sun Lang, but rather a faint fear and suspicion.
The battle at the Great Desolate Mountain was a knot in the hearts of all who knew about it. That final battle, which had been praised like a legend, was filled with sorrow and sorrow, filled with iron and blood, filled with sacrifice and death. Many, many of their comrades had died in that battle, and the only one who had survived and then disappeared was Sun Lang … He wanted to know what had happened, he wanted to know the details, because there was a faint fear in his heart, and the more afraid he was, the more he wanted to know.
He wanted to know what role Sun Lang had played in that bloody battlefield.
But now, it was already meaningless … Sun Lang had not only shattered his ability to fight again, he had also shattered his will to fight again. The current him had already lost interest in continuing to participate in this matter.
Now, under the double exhaustion of both body and mind, he only wanted to return to his peaceful home and embrace the people he loved.
After passing through the streets and alleys, the familiar courtyard was right in front of his eyes. The gentle light quietly shone through, making his anxious heart quickly return to calmness. He smiled bitterly and woke up the paladins who had fainted on the ground. He comforted them a few times and asked them to clean up carefully. Then he reported the news to the surrounding paladins. The paladins on duty in the guild must have also noticed the warning signal here and were most likely rushing here without stopping. Tonight was really a chaotic night …
After making some arrangements, he pushed open the door, and the familiar sound of conversation came from inside. He had already changed into another set of clean and tidy clothes. He patted his cheeks and showed a simple and honest smile as he pushed open the door. In an instant, several eyes looked at him. He quickly stepped forward and supported the woman who was getting up. "Mother of my child, slow down, slow down …"
Zhang Yinluo also stood up. Although her expression remained calm, Hu Shouxin could see the anxiety in her eyes … This girl, he did not know if she was silly to the point of being cute, or terrifyingly smart. Her worry was real, but the girl named Zhang Yinluo was only worried about whether the dangerous thing that Sun Lang had done today had succeeded, and whether he had been hurt. She did not care why Sun Lang had intercepted and killed the monster, nor did she care about the truth that Sun Lang wanted to hide. She just trusted Sun Lang like this, pure trust, and only cared about the trust that she had now.
Zhang Yinluo took a deep breath and tried to keep her tone as calm as possible. "Since Hu Huishou is back, I will not disturb you. Mrs. Hu, Hu Huishou, I will leave now …"
Hu Shouxin was slightly stunned and was about to say a few words to ask her to stay. However, Mrs. Hu, who was knowledgeable, courteous, warm and generous, did not try to persuade her to stay. She patted Hu Shouxin's big hand and said softly, "Husband, since Miss Zhang is in a hurry, I won't ask her to stay. It's dark at night and it's not safe. She might get lost.
Hu Shouxin looked at his wife, and Mrs. Hu looked at him with a smile. She reached out her hand and gently stroked his cheek. Then, she tidied up his messy collar and said softly, "Go. Come back soon."
Seeing this, Zhang Yinluo's eyes were a little wet … Maybe Mrs. Hu had already seen through everything, but she did not say anything.
No matter how anxious and worried she was, when it reached her mouth, it was only a gentle exhortation.
Hu Shouxin was silent for a moment, and then he hugged his wife gently. Then he turned around and said, "Miss Zhang, please."
The two of them left the warm courtyard in silence. There were already paladins guarding the door. Hu Shouxin said a few words and asked his men to bring two horses.
After the two of them got on the horses, Hu Shouxin gently squeezed the horse's belly, and the horse moved forward a few steps. Zhang Yinluo saw this and followed. The girl hesitated and said softly, "I am sorry …"
Hu Shouxin shook his head and said, "No … I should say thank you.
Miss Zhang, thank you for staying by Sun Lang's side. Thank you for always being by his side … "
"Eh?"
Zhang Yinluo was stunned for a moment, and then she blushed and stammered, "This, this, this … this is nothing. After all, we are partners, partners!
It is normal for partners to fight side by side! "
Hu Shouxin only smiled faintly, "No matter what identity you have, please stay by his side like this. He only needs a companion, someone who can completely trust him, and someone who he can completely trust … No matter what happens in the future, please stay by his side, and don't hurt him …"
"Hurt him …" Zhang Yinluo rolled her eyes and said, "He is hurting people's hearts and even bodies all day long. I don't know who in this world can cure him …"
Hu Shouxin shook his head and laughed, and then he squeezed the horse's belly and said, "Come with me … There may be some small trouble, especially … Miss Zhang, I think you may meet your opponent."
His meaningful smile made Zhang Yinluo have a bad feeling, "Who … My opponent?"
Stick Hu looked nostalgic, and then he smiled strangely, "Sun Lang's follower, a guy with a dog's face."
Hu Shouxin was right, things had indeed run into a little trouble … Yes, a little trouble.
Sun Lang had not arrived yet, and the original plan of catching a turtle in a jar had already turned into catching a shark. Not only was there the mission target, the Horned Tiger, in the courtyard, there was also a peerless Martial Warrior who had popped out of nowhere. Daoist Bai Xue wanted to retreat in shock, but Dongfang Xin had already brandished her great spear and rushed into the courtyard where the Horned Tiger was … This girl was simply reckless to a certain extent.
However, to abandon this weak girl and escape without a trace, not only was his conscience uneasy, he also did not have the face to see Great Hero Sun. Daoist Bai Xue steeled his heart, thinking that since he was the helper that Hu Shouxin had called over, and he was such a strong warrior, he should at least have the bearing of a strong warrior. With that thought in mind, he shouted, "Friend, please show mercy!
She's still a child! "
As soon as he finished speaking, the sound of weapons falling to the ground and Dongfang Xin's scream came from inside. Then, the sound of slapping came out, mixed with Dongfang Xin's shameful and indignant roar, "I'll throw you Zhao Yunlong!
Bastard!
You're hitting my butt again!
You disarmed me the moment you came up, what kind of hero are you!
If you have the guts, put me down, stand still, and eat my spear!
I bet this spear will definitely force you back!
Absolutely! "
Zhu Ying blinked and then realized what had happened. He hurriedly ran inside and shouted, "Stop!
Don't bully Sister Xin! "
What the hell … So it was an acquaintance?
But this name sounds a bit familiar, Zhao Yunlong … Eh!?
Zhao Yunlong!?
