Today, there is a rare ray of sunshine in Heiyun City Walled City.
The golden warm sun illuminates the rafts floating on the port, the sea is sparkling, and the sea breeze is refreshing.
This is the first time Wanwan has seen the sun in several years.
The bright light illuminated her clear and smart eyes, and also illuminated the dusty world deep in her heart.
"Wanwan, hurry up!"
The people in the shelter had already boarded the raft, and Mu Qingge waved to his sister: "Come quickly, we're waiting for you and dad."
"Come here."
Wanwan walked through the sunshine with brisk little steps.
She held a small wooden box in her arms, which contained her babies.
A matchbox, a carving knife, a butterfly hairpin, a compass, and an old teddy bear.
When many children move, they always pick out their most beloved things and take them with them instead of putting them in the truck. Probably because I feel that I only feel safe when I hold important things in my arms. Once they are out of sight, I might lose them at some point.
Of course, there are two most important things.
A violet crystal pendant hung around her neck.
That stupid wooden sculpture was put in her pocket.
Although they were forced to move out of the underground shelter, no one showed any signs of depression. Everyone's face was filled with joy and expectation because they firmly believed that their next home would be better.
The kindest second sister.
Uncle Sun who broke both legs.
There is also Aunt Shanshan who has a broken arm.
Holding that little baby you picked up from the street.
Wanwan looked at them, worried about her father again.
Counting the time, they should be back too.
Big Brother and the others will probably be very hungry when they come back. Will they be happy to see the steaming steamed buns in the kitchen?
When Wan Wan came back from picking up garbage outside, she was most looking forward to eating steaming buns.
So before leaving, she specially heated buns for her eldest brother, hoping that he would be happy.
I don’t know why, but that big brother is not happy at all even though he can live in the sunshine.
Wanwan is not very old, but she also knows that after leaving, it will be difficult to see each other again in the future.
But her father said that as long as she lives, there will be hope. As long as she grows up obediently, maybe one day in spring, she will be able to see Uncle Gu and her eldest brother standing under the tree, waving hello to her.
At that time, Wanwan could also fulfill her promise and send the wood carving away.
In the distance, there was a faint sound of a truck being dragged.
Uncle Mu and two young men were pushing a dilapidated truck, smiling and waving.
Wanwan turned around subconsciously, and the wooden sculpture in her pocket fell to the ground with a clatter.
Wanwan picked it up distressedly and blew away the dust.
However, at this moment, someone stood in front of her, and a shadow enveloped her face.
Snapped.
In the distance, Uncle Mu's footsteps stopped.
The hand holding the machete tightened silently, and the bones made a slight crack.
A second ago, he was still an ordinary father running towards his daughter.
So now, he is like a tiger in danger, facing a powerful enemy.

On the coast, Lu Zicheng shook his wet hair and patted the rain on his body.
"Have I ever said that I hate diving into Qilin Immortal Palace the most?"
He complained: "Every time I come down, I'm wet."
Fortunately, there is an RV parked on the shore, where you can simply take a shower, change clothes, etc.
Chen Qing was also soaked. He wrapped a blanket around his graceful figure and suddenly said: "Master, something is wrong. I noticed that Wang Bolin and other captains were not far away, but among the twelve people including us Three are missing, Li Chengtian and Zhao Zhi are missing, and Zhang Shiheng is also missing?"
Lu Zicheng narrowed his eyes and his pupils shrank.
Zhang Shiheng is the fourth level Overlord Path, a captain level.
Li Chengtian and Zhao Zhi are third-level ancient warriors, two deputy captains.
In fact, during the secret operation of the captains, Zhang Shiheng, a fourth-level void caver, used his extraordinary ability of eagle eye to watch their every move throughout the entire process.
Because these people know that they have some connections with that group of unclean people.
Unabashed distrust.
If I guessed correctly, this was probably Wang Bolin's order.
But now, Zhang Shiheng, the stalker, suddenly disappeared!
Boom!
There was a huge roar in the distant port.
Lu Zicheng's expression changed: "Oh no, Chen Qing, go call my sister and tell her something happened!"
For a moment, he felt a strong sense of unease.
"knew."
Chen Qing looked solemn, took out his cell phone and made a call.
Lu Zi's face changed from gloomy to bright, and he couldn't care too much for a moment, turning into an afterimage and disappearing in place.
However, at this moment, another afterimage roared over and blocked his face.
"Captain Lu."
Wang Bolin crossed his arms and stood in front of him: "The purge operation ordered by the Saint is about to begin. Where are you going?"
·

The whistle of the medical vehicle resounded throughout Heiyun City, and the association's backup finally arrived.
The long street outside the garbage dump has been tightly blocked by the security department. Medical staff in white coats carried stretchers into medical vehicles to inject medicine into the wounded.
Nie Xiangsi and Zhang Cheng lay on two stretchers respectively and were sent in.
"Thanks to Uncle Mu and the others."
Cheng Youyu was not seriously poisoned, but after taking the antidote, he became alive and kicking. He squatted on the roadside and sighed: "If it weren't for Uncle Mu, I would probably be dead now, and so would Xiangsi and Brother Cheng. Brother Lin, what do you mean? What is it like in this world? The bad people are so bad, but the good people are so good?"
Gu Jianlin leaned on the telephone pole and said lightly: "I don't know."
He lived for seventeen years and entered the extraordinary world for the first time.
For the first time, I came into contact with the dark side of the world.
But I met such a group of people.
Even though he was living in poverty, he was still willing to help others.
"They only have so little luggage, so few people, and most of them are disabled. Where can they go? The thought of them having to live a hard life in the wild makes me feel really bad. Especially Wan Wan, who is so good A little girl has to hide here and there, what kind of world is this?"
Cheng Youyu said with emotion: "Brother Lin, can we really not do anything to help?"
Gu Jianlin shook his head, there was probably nothing he could do to help him for the time being.
But he knew that there were actually two other ways.
The first way is to find the method that my father said can eradicate pollution.
As for the second method...
Gu Jianlin looked up at the sky.
If you can't solve the problem, then you can solve the person who created the problem.
"I am a rich second generation, and my monthly pocket money is more than 100,000 yuan. But when I went to this shelter, I didn't do anything to help anyone. I had to ask them to give me antidotes, and I even ate two steamed buns. .”
When Cheng Youyu said this, he slapped himself hard.
Gu Jianlin glanced at him and comforted him softly: "Don't think too much."
But in fact, he didn't feel well in his heart.
Until this moment, he still remembered the warmth of the old man's hand on his shoulder.
At the same time, Tang Ling had been taken into the medical car and received emergency treatment.
It was obvious that her injuries were serious.
At this time, a huge explosion suddenly sounded from the distant port!
boom!
Massive thick smoke rose into the sky, accompanied by a huge mushroom cloud, and the flames were as bright as blood.
The flames soaring into the sky were reflected in the young man's dark eyes.
Gu Jianlin suddenly raised his head, looked in the direction of the port, and was stunned.
"Brother Lin..."
Cheng Youyu also stood up subconsciously, his voice trembling.
Because they discovered that that was the direction that everyone in the shelter was leaving from.
At this time, a guard team leader answered the radio: "Report the situation on the 13th."
Along with the noisy sound of electricity, a chuckle sounded:
"Report on the 13th, no problem."
The man on the walkie-talkie said: "Don't worry, team leader, we just encountered a group of degenerates trying to escape. A group of old, weak, sick and disabled, and they seem to have taken Tianshengcao. We have a few new investigators here, and With one captain and two deputy teams, we have sufficient combat power and no support is needed.”
The team leader's expression softened, but he heard a loud roar coming from the intercom.
"Are you sure? Why are you making such a noise?"
he asked again.
A slightly hesitant voice came from the intercom: "I have to say that among these old, weak, sick and disabled, there is a guy who is quite strong and is still resisting. Captain Zhang Shiheng has already taken action, and there are two deputy captains assisting him. We can take him down in about five minutes. Over."
Communication is interrupted.
Just such a short conversation.
Gu Jian Linhe was more than successful, but he seemed to have fallen into hell.
"No? Isn't this impossible? According to this time, they should have left by boat, right? Well, it was a raft. But even if it was a raft, they should have left, right? The people from the association just arrived, why didn't they leave? It’s impossible to meet them so soon, right? Brother Lin, don’t you think so?”
Cheng Youyu's face was illuminated by the firelight, and his voice was still trembling.
At that moment, Gu Jianlin clenched his fists and released his life sense without hesitation.
A powerful sense of perception enveloped the nearby neighborhood.
It was clearly a second, but to him it seemed like a century had passed.
He couldn't describe the feeling.
It's like the chest is blocked by silt, the heart is compressed, and breathing is not smooth.
However, when he sensed the rhythm of those people's lives, his expression suddenly changed.
"Wait for me here, I'll go there."
boom!
Gu Jianlin turned into a ghost again, and a pale will-o'-the-wisp ignited on his forehead, illuminating Xie Yi's noble face.
And he turned into a ghostly black shadow and galloped away.
"Brother Lin!"
Cheng Youyu's expression changed, and he burst out with energy and chased after me: "Wait for me!"

In life, things often go wrong.
No matter how much Gu Jianlin and Cheng Youyu prayed in their hearts, they still could not change what had happened.
In fact, people's sixth sense is very keen. Before many things happen, you actually have a bad premonition, but you will still comfort yourself and tell yourself not to be too anxious, everything will be fine.
However, in fact, your subconscious already knows that something bad is going to happen.
Just like the so-called unclean ones, they all hid in the basement of Black Cloud City Walled City, but they were still being chased and killed.
Where else could they escape?
Nordic? Africa? Antarctica? Arctic?
Can you really escape for the rest of your life?
Even if you could really keep running away, would your life be better?
The answer is no.
Because under the oppression of the powerful, they have been deprived of all rights to live in this world as independent beings, like moles who cannot see the light and can only hide underground.
The moment they saw the light, what greeted them was not salvation, but disaster.
When Gu Jianlin came out of the alley and saw the burning port, he fell silent.
A panting voice came from behind.
Cheng Youyu followed him and witnessed everything.
combustion.
The flames were burning, and the long street was engulfed in a sea of flames.
In the ruins, there are broken walls and ruins everywhere.
The blood spread on the ground, wrinkled by the wind like petals, like a withered flower.
There are also those people who live in refuge without resting in peace.
The young men fell to the ground, their heads severed, and they died with their eyes open.
Broken firearms and broken alchemy weapons were scattered everywhere.
The woman with a broken arm holding the baby fell in a pool of blood, not knowing whether she was alive or dead.
The baby cried loudly but was not hurt.
Uncle Sun, who looked scary but had given them medicine with a broken leg, fell to the ground.
The left hand was also broken, leaving only one hand hanging for the last breath.
At this time, they seemed to be discovered in the alley.
The old man's eyes were filled with angry and scarlet bloodshot eyes.
As if ordering them - don't come over.
The wind suddenly picked up, blowing up a blood-stained pink sweatshirt and fluttering in the wind.
In the burning ruins, a burly figure sat on his knees.
His limbs were pierced by iron chains, and he was tied to the ground like a wild beast, dying.
The machete was broken.
Along with his pride as a former Night Watchman, it was shattered.
The woman was wailing and the old man was cursing loudly.
Mu Qingge was covered in blood, her short hair was pulled, her broken limbs were wrapped in chains, and she was violently stuffed into the car.
The young investigators broke their limbs mercilessly and loaded them into prison vans one by one.
"dad!"
A small figure rushed towards the sea of fire desperately, running towards the kneeling figure.
Unexpectedly, he was kicked over.
The person who kicked him looked familiar.
Li Xun.
Wanwan fell to the ground with a plop, and her only treasures were scattered everywhere.
The violet crystal necklace on her chest broke and fell to the ground.
And that ugly wooden sculpture also rolled down.
When she lost the violet crystal pendant, she suddenly coughed in pain.
The aura of the fallen quickly filled the air.
"It turns out that this is also a degenerate."
Yan Feng walked over, looked at the little girl lying on the ground, and sneered: "You actually used an alchemy tool to cover your breath? No, this is not an alchemy tool, but an ancient token?"
Wanwan stretched out her hand in pain, trying to fumble for something.
It turns out that the violet crystal pendant is a prop used to suppress pollution, and she has been wearing it.
Without that, she would become like other degenerates.
No, maybe even worse.
Because she is too young to bear the power of pollution.
But as her little hands fumbled, they passed by the violet crystal pendant.
Instead, he grabbed at the ugly wooden sculpture.
But the moment she was about to touch it, there was a click!
Yan Feng stepped down and crushed the wooden sculpture to pieces.
Sawdust, splinters, burst out.
Wan Wan was stunned. The little girl's last wish was trampled to pieces, and tears burst out of her eyes.
Oooh, crying heartbreakingly.
"A group of degenerates are quite dangerous."
Yan Feng turned around and said, "Captain Zhang, are you okay?"
Zhang Shouheng was leaning on the car, half of his body was penetrated by a knife wound, and blood was flowing freely.
His face was extremely pale, as if he was extremely weak: "That guy is not normal. If nothing else, he used to be from the headquarters, which is very unusual. Inject him with paralysis medicine quickly and trap him."
The other two third-level captains were also scarred and were just short of dying.
Uncle Mu fought one against three and severely wounded these three people.
However, there was nothing he could do to save it.
"Understood."
Yan Feng turned around and ordered: "Don't worry about the dead ones. Load the living ones into the car."
·
·
The reality is so cruel.
It was like a knife stabbing into the heart.
Gu Jianlin watched this scene in silence.
The foot that crushed the wooden sculpture seemed to have stepped firmly on his heart.
It hurts so much that I can't breathe.
That's just a six-year-old girl, so what threat can she pose?
She lost the pendant that suppressed the aura of the Fallen.
The first thing I wanted to take back was her wood carving.
At that time, she was still thinking about that promise.
For a man who will never come back.
"Brother Lin, Brother Lin! Ahhh! These bastards!"
Like a crazed beast, Cheng Youyu hung against the wall and fumbled for his phone: "I want to call my father! I want to kill these bastards! I want to tear them alive! Fuck, fuck damn it!"
At this time, Gu Jianlin's cell phone suddenly rang.
A call came in directly without being answered by him.
"Xiao Gu, it's me."
A breathless voice sounded: "I am Lu Zicheng. I located your location through the Eye of Horus satellite. Listen, I don't care what you see now, I ask you to calm down."
"This is a conspiracy, a conspiracy against you. Uncle Mu will not die, and neither will his daughter, because they need to live. You should be awake, Yan Ye and Yan Feng are still alive, because they are alive, These people are needed to target you, confirming the fact that you are colluding with the unclean ones."
"This is an order from a saint. His authority and strength are higher than those of the minister. I am afraid that all the fallen except Uncle Mu and the others will die today. I know that Professor Gu may have left something for you. You have the strength to challenge beyond the next level. But this matter is of great importance and is not something you can handle."
"Now listen to me and get out of here quickly. My sister and the others will be here soon, you must..."
Suddenly, a crisp slap came from the long street.
Gu Jianlin turned his head to look in silence.
The wailing stopped abruptly.
The left side of Wanwan's face was visibly red and swollen.
The slap was so powerful that it knocked her unconscious.
For a moment, Uncle Mu let out a dying roar and rushed over like a wild beast.
However, four chains penetrated his limbs, preventing him from moving.
boom!
Yan Feng punched him so hard that he spat out a mouthful of blood.
Broken teeth burst out.
This punch shattered the last bit of dignity as a father.
From then on it fell into dust.
"Load the car and take it away!"
Yan Feng ordered: "Go and join my brother."
Along with all the living shelter members, were loaded into the car.
Uncle Mu was also put into an iron cage and stuffed into the trunk of the prison van.
The engine starts.
The three captains also got into the car, injected the healing liquid, closed their eyes and rested, waiting for their injuries to be healed.
Yan Feng watched all this proudly and got into the passenger seat.
The prison car roared away and rushed into the darkness.
The car has gone away.
The crisp slap echoed in the young man's heart.
You actually hit her.
How dare you hit her.
How dare you hit her?
Who...gave you the power?
"Captain Lu."
Gu Jianlin said softly: "Did you see it?"
On the phone, Lu Zicheng was silent for a moment and said: "If you endure the calm for a while, if you do something now, everything will be over. Don't you want to rehabilitate your father? Now that you have joined the Omega Sequence, you have a bright future. Seed, you must stay calm and don’t fall into their trap..."
Click.
The phone has a slight crack.
"team leader."
Gu Jianlin grabbed the phone and said softly: "Actually, I have thought about it before. I want to vindicate my father, I want to climb up the association step by step, I want to use these resources to become stronger as soon as possible, and then prove myself , prove that I am right and that my father is not a murderer."
He paused, and his voice was soft, but it sounded like a monster grinding its teeth and sucking blood.
"But it's all my fault. I should have been with them. I should have watched them get on the boat. I shouldn't have listened to Uncle Mu so much and worried about my future. Uncle Mu is my father's benefactor. My benefactor, but I actually let them go on their own for the sake of their so-called future? And then watched them suffer all this?"
Gu Jianlin rarely said so many words at once, and his voice was trembling.
Scenes of scenes flashed in his mind.
When I was desperate, a small black shadow lifted up the floor.
When his teammates were unconscious, the old man with a broken leg brought herbal medicine.
The steaming buns were delivered by the one-armed woman.
The little girl’s anxious and expectant eyes, her innocent smile.
The warmth of Uncle Mu's hand on his shoulder.
There is also a promise to see each other again.
Gu Jianlin's eyes seemed to be frozen in the moment when the old man pounced on his daughter.
When there was a car accident, his father probably pounced on him like this, right?
"If I didn't stand up today, would I be worthy of Uncle Mu? Am I worthy of Wanwan? Am I worthy of my father? How should I tell my story after I go down to see my father?"
He said softly: "No, the person I am really sorry for is myself."
Because he couldn't forgive his cowardly self.
"Sorry, Captain, I don't want to bear it anymore."
boom.
His cell phone was crushed alive by him.
A flash of electric sparks illuminated his side face as cold as a knife.
"Cheng Youyu, do me a favor."
Gu Jianlin took out a business card from his pocket and said softly: "Make this call for me later."
Cheng Youyu's eyes were red and he took the postcard tremblingly.
I saw five words written on it.
Forget the Grocery Store.
The next moment, when he raised his head again, the black-haired boy had disappeared.
The sun was blocked and haze enveloped Black Cloud City.
Dark clouds gathered in the sky, and there was a faint flash of lightning, and the roar of thunder sounded.
For some reason, the dark clouds in the sky seemed to be roaring and lightning flashing.
It looks like a... Qilin.
