The autumn wind was blowing, perhaps because he was sitting by the river. Even though it was noon, Lu Yunyou could still feel a bit of coldness in the wind, but he didn't care too much. The clear river water flowed slowly, leisurely and naturally. The flow of the river made his heart become calmer and calmer.
He didn't know where the long river led, and there were some people fishing downstream. The familiar scene reminded him of the time when he and Fang Ting caught fish before. Feeling sad, he looked away from that direction again.
Opposite the river bank is a mountain ridge with lush trees and a vibrant scene. The scenery is much better than the desolate hilly area they passed through before, but unfortunately he is not in the mood to appreciate it now.
From now on, Fang Ting’s hearty laughter, concerned eyes and familiar faces will all become his memories, and all these changes are due to those bandits who do all kinds of evil. If it weren’t for the despicable methods of those bandits, those bad Things will never happen. Thinking of the scene where the woman died to save her, and then thinking of the scene when Ye Long invited everyone to eat snow pear cake, Lu Yunyou felt complicated.
For ordinary people, there is only one life, but evil people like Ye Long will definitely do evil many times as long as they are alive. I don’t know how many innocent people will die because of them. With a kind heart, Lu Yunyou His hatred for those bandits was getting deeper and deeper, especially after thinking of Ye Long's hypocritical face, he wanted to cut them into pieces immediately.
The human heart is sinister, just like when Fang Ting taught him, the world is full of dangers, and if he hadn't experienced it personally, he would never have such a profound understanding.
It was obvious that they were helping others with good intentions, but ended up harming themselves. That night, when Fang Ting got out of the car, his expression was not much different from usual. In an instant, Lu Yunyou's body trembled suddenly, as if he had been violently injured. Like a shock.
His heart was becoming more and more painful, but the tears could not be shed. It seemed that trying to understand something in pain would make the pain taste worse.
No matter why he was not poisoned at that time, he felt extremely uncomfortable when he was misunderstood by others, so much so that he had no confidence at all when he fought with the bandit under the influence of various factors.
In fact, if he had worked hard from the beginning, maybe he could have saved more people in the end. Unfortunately, he was too weak and lacked fighting spirit at the time. Thinking about it now, he can't change anything except hating his own incompetence.
Recalling the situation that night when he was suppressed by the bandit until he was unable to fight back, the feeling of complete loss of confidence still made him extremely desperate even when he thought about it now.
It wasn't until the woman sacrificed her life to save him that he got out of that state of confusion. All fear disappeared instantly, leaving only the thought of fighting the bandits. After thinking about it for a long time, Lu Yunyou still couldn't figure out why he couldn't leave in the first place. There are only four steps left and eight steps to waste.
After being silently indignant for a long time, Lu Yunyou calmed down a little. Since he could not pay homage to Fang Ting and the others for the time being, he could only think of waiting for the Escort Bureau to return from Dilong City to pay homage to Fang Ting and the others at their graves.
With his mind set, Lu Yunyou suddenly felt that a long time had passed. At some point, the people who were fishing in the river had left the river, and the area around the river bank was unusually quiet.
Another cool breeze blew by, and Lu Yunyou became more conscious. Autumn was about to pass. In the blink of an eye, it had been a month since he left Wuyang City. Time passed too fast, and winter was about to enter. In his mind, , the winter in Chaos Ridge was extremely cold, so cold that he wanted to bury all his memories of winter.
"Brother, what are you thinking about?"
Just when Lu Yunyou was lamenting the change of seasons, a crisp voice came into his ears, which made him come back to his senses instantly. When he took a closer look, a young girl appeared in front of him out of nowhere.
"Who are you?" Seeing the girl staring straight at him, a flash of doubt flashed in Lu Yunyou's eyes.
"My name is Hong Yu. I am sixteen years old this year." Facing Lu Yunyou's inquiry, the girl introduced herself generously.
"Hong Yu," what a strange name, Lu Yunyou couldn't help but think in his heart, but he was more curious about where the other party came from and what business he came to see him for.
"Brother, you seem to have something on your mind? Can you tell me?" The girl looked concerned as if she wanted to relieve Lu Yunyou's worries. She didn't care at all whether she and Lu Yunyou knew each other.
"Brother, my mother said that if you have anything unhappy, you must speak it out, otherwise it will be very uncomfortable if you hold it in alone." She seemed to be born with a lively personality. Seeing that Lu Yunyou didn't answer, the girl didn't mind and took the initiative to find someone. Lu Yunyou chatted.
"Well," Lu Yunyou could no longer remain silent under the other party's repeated questioning.
"Brother, what's your name?"
"Lu Yunyou."
"Brother Yunyou, I heard from dad that your team encountered a group of bandits not long ago, and many people died. Are you sad for those dead companions?"
"Yes," the other party was absolutely right, and Lu Yunyou nodded simply.
"Brother Yunyou, I heard my mother say that there are two places people go to after they die. Good people go to heaven and live happily, and bad people go to hell to be tortured. I think big brother's friends must be good people. Big brother doesn't need to Sad for them.”
Not only does she have a lively personality, but she also seems to have a unique ability to comfort people. After she said that, Lu Yunyou felt really comfortable.
"Brother Yunyou, let me tell you another joke. Every time my dad hears me tell this joke, he laughs." Seeing that Lu Yunyou's expression softened a lot, Hong Yu said even more happily: "Brother , I have a sister who is two years older than me, but my sister doesn’t like to talk as much as I do, she almost doesn’t talk to others, and I found that except for my parents and me, few people talk to my sister.”
At this point, the girl hurriedly approached Lu Yunyou's ear as if she wanted to tell a secret, and whispered in a low voice: "Actually, I have always thought that my sister is a freak. How could a good and decent person not like to talk? But my mother They say that I am a freak, that I have endless things to say, and that I don’t look like a normal person.”
"Brother, no matter who you think is the weirdo, me or my sister, you must never tell anyone else about it."
Speaking to the end in one breath, Hongyu still appeared a little nervous, and his big watery eyes kept flashing with a cunning light.
Her playful demeanor alone made Lu Yunyou want to laugh, not to mention what she said just now. If Lu Yunyou really wanted to comment, then there is no doubt that the little girl in front of him is a freak, and of course Lu Yunyou wouldn't. Speak your mind.
"Don't worry, I will help you keep the secret," the little girl in front of him was more lively than the Lu Qingyu in his memory. After being made laugh by the other party, Lu Yunyou was in a much better mood.
"Okay, big brother, you must not go back on your word!" After receiving Lu Yunyou's guarantee, Hong Yu became happy again, not doubting whether Lu Yunyou's promise was reliable.
"Of course!" Nodding seriously, Lu Yunyou, who gradually opened his mind, took the initiative to ask the other party: "Hongyu, you are not old, why do you go out to perform tasks?"
"Because my father is the leader of the team. This time my sister and I begged him for a long time before he agreed to take us out to see the world," Hongyu said, pointing to Li An specifically.
From a distance, Lu Yunyou could see a tall man with an impressive appearance standing next to Hong Ying. Obviously, that man was Hong Yu's father. As the leader of a large escort agency, in his opinion, that man's strength He must be stronger than Hong Ying, but when it comes to personal cultivation, Lu Yunyou found that the little girl in front of him was not simple either. Although she was not old, she had the strength of the third level of martial arts, which was no worse than him now.
"Hong Yu, aren't you afraid that I am a bad person? Why do you dare to come to talk to me alone?" After being amazed, Lu Yunyou asked the other party some questions.
"I'm a third-level martial arts cultivator. Dad said I'm already very powerful now," Hong Yu praised herself confidently, and then said with a smile: "Besides, eldest brother is a good person at first sight, so of course I'm not afraid."
Hongyu's way of speaking is as simple and straightforward as his character, without any thoughts at all, making people unable to feel any disgust.
"Can you still tell whether I am a good person or a bad person?" Although he did not deny Hong Yu's judgment, Lu Yunyou was still surprised by Hong Yu's statement.
"Actually, I heard my mother say before that people who feel sad for others are good people!"
"But bad people can also be sad, right?"
"No, the bad guys are all pretending!" After saying this, Hong Yu's tone suddenly became serious, and even his demeanor became much more serious.
"So that's it," Lu Yunyou found it difficult to adapt to the situation when Hong Yu suddenly became serious after changing her previous lively and innocent demeanor.
"Brother, they have all eaten, why don't you go back to eat?"
