Xue Tianhu's figure was no longer visible, and his eyes became increasingly blurry.
My mind started to become a little sluggish and cloudy, and I even felt sleepy like never before.
My eyelids drooped, making my vision even more blurry.
Finally, I couldn't hold on any longer, my eyelids dropped completely, and my vision was replaced by darkness.
I knew I was going to sleep and would never wake up, so the moment I fell asleep, I concentrated all the last bits of energy in my body on my fingers.
Whoosh...!
The crossbow arrow flew out as promised, and I completely lost consciousness.
…………
I don’t know if it was a dream or if I was really dead. I saw my mother smiling and waving at me not far away, while I was running wildly with joy.
Two more figures appeared next to my mother. They were two men, one old and one young.
One is my father, the closest relative I have been searching for for ten years, and the other is my grandfather, whom I have only met once.
The three of them lined up in a row, smiling and waving at me at the same time.
At that moment, I felt a sense of family affection that I had never experienced before. I ran wildly, wanting to rush into their arms.
Obviously I had already rushed in front of them. Just when I opened my arms and was about to hug my loved ones, I heard a soft call. That call brought me back to reality again.
"Xie Dongzi, how are you? Wake up!"
Hearing that call, I suddenly opened my eyes. When I opened my eyes, I saw a familiar face. She was looking at me with a worried look on her face.
"Chen Qiuyu, you're okay, great!"
I exclaimed and sat up from the ground. Looking at Chen Qiuyu who was still alive, I felt an indescribable bitterness in my heart.
"I'm fine, but my neck still hurts a little."
As she spoke, Chen Qiuyu raised her hand and gently rubbed her neck, which was turning blue and purple from being pinched.
Chen Qiuyu is still alive, and so am I. The unspeakable pain in my heart turned into tears rolling back and forth in my eyes.
The two of us are still alive, but Fatty Wu...
I turned around with my heart filled with despair. Fatty Wang was still lying in front of me, looking so peaceful.
Snort...!
A deafening snoring sound passed into my ears, and the sound clearly came from Fatty Wu's mouth.
I thought I heard wrongly or was hallucinating, so I opened my eyes and looked at Fatty Wu carefully.
Snort...!
Immediately afterwards, another snoring sound came from Fatty Wu's mouth, and it was even accompanied by a series of squeaks from his lips. This clearly showed that he was not dead, but was sleeping there!
"Fat man, fat man!"
I stretched out my hands and pushed hard, and the tears of joy flowed out like a flood that had burst a dam.
Fatty Wu frowned, slowly opened his eyes, looked at me confused and said, "What happened, Dongzi? Why are you crying? Who died?"
"You damn fat man, why did you say I was crying? I thought you would never be able to think about it again!"
As I said that, I punched Fatty Wu hard on the chest, feeling as happy as the rest of my life after a disaster.
At this time, Fatty Wu seemed to have nothing to do, looking at Chen Qiuyu and me with confused expressions on our faces.
But when he lowered his head and saw the large area of dried blood in front of him, he seemed to suddenly remember something.
"Oh, I remember that I seemed to have been kicked by that person named Xue. Why is there nothing wrong with me now? And why doesn't it hurt at all?"
Originally, all my attention was focused on Fatty Wu. When he said it didn't hurt, I suddenly remembered that I was also injured, and just like Fatty Wu said, I didn't feel anything at all. child's pain.
I hurriedly turned my head and looked at my right leg, which was hit by Xue Tianhu's kick.
I saw that the trouser leg of my right calf was dyed bright red, and in the bright red center, there was a hole the size of a thumb just below my knee.
I knew that was where the bullet entered, but to my surprise, the skin in the hole was intact. There were no bullet holes, not even a scar.
Hiss...am I dreaming?
The trouser legs stained with blood and the holes made by the bullets were enough to prove that this was not a dream at all, but why were there no injuries on my legs at all?
In the end, it was Chen Qiuyu who gave the answer. She pointed to an empty syringe scattered aside and said to me: "Remember that I once told you that I was ordered by my grandfather to kill you." Take it back alive, grandpa and his old man knew how ferocious Xue Tianhu was, so he gave me the last bit of the dissolved elixir, which is why you and my uncle are safe and sound."
This makes sense, considering that both Fatty Wu and I have witnessed the miraculous effects of the elixir. Not only can it instantly heal wounds, it can also bring people back to life.
This is why Fatty Wu miraculously survived even though he had no signs of survival.
And if I didn't have this elixir, I'm afraid I would sink into that illusory dream forever.
Chen Qiuyu paused for a moment, then spoke again: "My grandfather said that after dilution, this elixir no longer has its original effect, so it is not easy to save you once, so I hope you will not do what you did before. You are being reckless, otherwise if something unexpected happens, I will be helpless."
"Well, I understand. Thank you for saving my life and Fatty's. I will be careful next time."
After that, I stood up, stretched my right leg, then picked up the crossbow and walked towards the open door.
After looking at the door, the first thing that comes into view in the Taiyuan Palace is a long corridor. At the end is a confused place, and I don't know where it leads.
A touch of bright red on the crystal ground caught my attention. It was a pool of bright red blood, which was so dazzling against the crystal ground.
Among the pool of blood was a broken crossbow arrow, which was also bright red.
This is the arrow I shot before I lost consciousness. It seems that it didn't kill Xue Tianhu at all, but it didn't seem to have missed the target, and it also caused some damage to Xue Tianhu. The broken crossbow arrow and the pool of bright red The blood stains are the best proof.
At this time, Chen Qiuyu and Fatty Wu also stepped into the Taiyuan Palace. When they came to my side, Fatty Wu looked at the blood stains in front of him and sneered at Broken Arrow: "Hmph, it looks like that bastard named Xue He's injured, let's pursue the victory and kill this bastard!"
What Fatty Wu said at the moment was what I was thinking. I nodded and handed the crossbow and a few crossbow arrows to Fatty Wu.
Fatty Wu also has a crossbow at home. We usually meet up and go to remote places in the mountains and forests to practice archery. Although Fatty Wu is not as good at using it as I am, he can at least use it, which is enough. .
After handing the crossbow to the fat man's hand, I also took the sharp knife in my hand and handed it to Chen Qiuyu.
Maybe Chen Qiuyu didn't need such short weapons with her ghost hands and dragon claws, but with a sharp knife in hand, she was prepared, not to mention that it was not an ordinary knife.
The sweat from my hands has dissolved all the poison on the handle, and there is not much poison left on the blade, but this is enough. How powerful the poison is, as long as A little bit is enough.
"Be careful, the blade of this knife is stained with poison!"
Chen Qiuyu didn't want to take it at first, but after my insistence, she finally took the sharp knife and put it away with her.
"You gave us all your weapons, what will you do?"
Chen Qiuyu looked at me with a worried expression.
I smiled and took off my backpack, "I don't have to worry, I have a better weapon."
Having said that, I reached out and took out the last thing in my backpack, which was the dragon-detecting claw made from the meteorite outside that day.
