In a small county located in a corner of the State of Qin, the originally orderly and bustling streets suddenly became chaotic. A young man's terrified voice kept ringing out,"Make way! Help! Someone's been killed!”
The pedestrians on the road immediately began to dodge. Then, two figures were revealed, one in front and one behind. The figure in front had brown-yellow hair, a yellow short shirt with patches all over his body, and a green jade pendant around his neck.
"Ye Xing, help! Hurry up and save me. If you don't come, you'll never see me again! Wuuu…"
Ye Xing, who was called out affectionately, expressed that he was very busy now. As for what he was busy with? It was one of the five most important things in a person's life. Therefore, Ye Xing did not have the time and energy to pay attention to Tianming's cry for help!
The fierce-looking, muscular man chasing behind Tian Ming grinned hideously. The axe in his hand was raised high, shining under the sunlight! "Kid, what are you shouting for? Hurry up and return my money. You thief, you bastard! That's my savings from chopping firewood for half a year!”
A few figures who had wanted to step forward to stop him heard the burly man's words. They all looked at Tian Ming with disgust and muttered softly," Kids these days are really…"
"I hate thieves the most!"
"That's half a year's savings!”
Initially, Tianming was delighted when he saw the few people who wanted to step forward. However, when he saw them retreat after hearing the words of the burly man behind them, his eyes were filled with disappointment and anger.
As he ran, Daybreak retorted loudly,""You're framing me. I didn't steal your money! You, you, are you being unreasonable!”
Not only did Tianming's words not achieve the desired effect, but it also angered the burly man."You thief, it was clearly you. There were only the two of us on that street just now. If it wasn't you who stole it, who else could it be? Also, you clearly bumped into me just now. You must have taken advantage of that moment to steal it.”
As he spoke, he chased even more anxiously. Tianming saw that there were more and more people watching the show in front of him. Seeing that he was about to be caught, Tianming could only rush to a place with fewer people, while the burly man chased after him relentlessly!
When the crowd saw that there was no more excitement to watch, they shook their heads and sighed. They sighed and sighed. It was fine. As for reporting to the officials, this was obviously a thankless thing. The common people would not do it.
Now Tianming's heart was filled with regret. If he had known earlier, he wouldn't have come out to play. It would have been better if he had stayed at home and slept in with Ye Xing. Now, not only was he accused of stealing money, but he was also being chased by someone with an axe. Tianming looked at the red-eyed posture of the burly man holding the knife behind him. He shivered and ran even faster.
As he ran, he shouted,"I didn't steal it. You've got the wrong person. Help!" Ye Xing, come quickly!"
However, Tianming's helpless cries only attracted the attention of fewer and fewer pedestrians on the street, as well as the roars of the burly man behind him!
At this moment, at the city gate of the small county, a man in a plain white robe slowly walked into the dilapidated county with a sword in his hand. The man walked on the busy streets. There were clearly countless pedestrians around him, but the man gave off a feeling that he did not belong here.
Suddenly, the white-robed man pricked up his ears. He keenly caught a few words!
"Do you think that yellow-haired child is a thief? No matter how I look at it, it doesn't look like it."
"In this world, who knows! One might not know a person's heart from their appearance, but judging from the child's appearance and personality, he did not look like a thief!”
"That's right! Although this child had stolen some steamed buns and buns after the death of the old couple, it would be strange if he did not do so at his age in this chaotic world!”
"Yes, this chaotic world is full of orphans. Sigh! However, that kid is the same. I see that the jade ring on his neck is quite valuable. Why don't you sell it? You can even earn a few copper coins!”
"You don't know about this, do you? This blond child had recently made friends with another particularly rich child. He did not know where this child came from, but he was quite mysterious and very capable. The blond child did not lack money at all!”
"Eh, I was ignorant. I didn't expect such a thing to happen. But do you think that the burly man who chased after the child with a knife was trying to blackmail the child?”
"Now that you mention it, you can't rule out this possibility!”
The man's mind quickly captured the words " yellow hair, jade jade ring, orphan." Combined with the characteristics of his former friend, his intuition told him that this child was his target.
In his excitement, the white-robed man's body flashed and appeared in front of the two passersby who were still walking and talking.
The two passers-by were frightened by the sudden appearance of the white-robed man with a long sword. They trembled so hard that they could not even say a normal word!
"This strong, strong, strong man, I, I, I don't have money. I, I have elders and children. Please spare my life!”
The other person also nodded excitedly. Seeing that his sudden appearance had frightened the two of them, the white-robed man hurriedly cupped his hands and bowed."Brothers, you have misunderstood. I was rude. I just want to ask you something.”
The man in white's words made the two passersby heave a sigh of relief. They said repeatedly,"If you have anything to ask, we will definitely tell you everything we know!”
"I want to ask," the white-robed man said immediately."The yellow-haired boy who was being chased by someone with an axe just now fled in that direction!”
When the two of them heard this, they heaved a sigh of relief. Then, they pointed in a direction and said,"He went in that direction!"
"Thank you, brothers!" The white-robed man cupped his hands and thanked them.”
The two passersby were about to say,"It's nothing!"”But in the next moment, the white-robed man disappeared as if he had never appeared!
The two passersby looked at each other as if they had seen a ghost. Then, they both shivered and ran toward their own house in a panic.
The white-robed man's figure flew between the houses. Passers-by would sometimes feel a breeze beside them, and then they seemed to see a white figure. However, when they focused their eyes, they could not see the person. They all exclaimed that they had seen a ghost.
The white-robed man's eyes kept scanning the surroundings. Suddenly, he saw a burly man holding an axe in his hand and forcing a child on the ground. The man's eyes lit up and he changed directions to rush towards the two of them.
Tianming ran all the way, but in the end, he was still not as strong as the burly man behind him. He slowly retreated weakly. Tianming looked at the burly man holding the axe and begged,"I really didn't steal it. You've really found the wrong person. Boohoo, who can save me? Ye Xing, help! Where are you? Come quickly!"
Looking at the gleaming axe blade and the brawny man with a sinister smile, Tian Ming's tears flowed down his face. In his agitation, Tian Ming's breathing became more and more rapid, and a strange mark slowly appeared on his originally empty neck.
The burly man roared at Ye Xing,"Give me back my money, or I'll really kill you!"”After saying that, he even waved the axe in his hand downward. The burly man's actions made Tian Ming even more agitated, and his crying voice became even louder.
However, the burly man's actions had also angered someone. The white-robed man, who was dozens of steps away from the two of them, saw the burly man's axe blade that was about to slash down. When he heard Tianming's cry, his originally calm heart suddenly stirred.
In his agitation, the man in white let out a clear and melodious chant. The man continued to move forward at high speed, but a white stream of light rushed out at a faster speed than the man. In a flash, it crossed a short distance of dozens of steps. Fortunately, the white-robed man still maintained his last bit of rationality under his emotional agitation. He arranged his attacks according to his needs and knocked the burly man unconscious with one strike.
Tian Ming, who was crying and shouting in agitation, looked at the big man who was slowly falling to the ground. There was also that flash of white light, as well as the white-robed man who had suddenly appeared in front of him. For a moment, he actually forgot to cry. His agitated emotions had also been alleviated. Even the strange curse seal on Tian Ming's neck flashed a few times unwillingly before it disappeared under Ye Xing's skin.
The white-robed man heaved a sigh of relief when he saw that Tianming was fine. Looking at Tianming's tearful face, the white-robed man could vaguely see that Tianming was somewhat similar to his best friend. It should not be said that he was simply like his best friend when he was young!
"I didn't disappoint you. I found your child! I will take good care of him and fulfill my promise!”The man thought in his heart.
Tianming looked at the white-robed man who had suddenly appeared. He wiped his eyes with the back of his hand and gradually stopped sobbing.
The man looked at Tianming, his eyes softening slightly as he said indifferently,"Follow me! Leave this place."
"Are you here to pick me up?" Tianming sounded a little confused.
"Yes!" Ge Nia's voice was as calm as ever.
A hint of excitement appeared on Tian Ming's face, and he could not help but raise his voice!
"You're my father, right? I knew you would come and pick me up! You're my father!"
Ge Nia looked at Tian Ming's hopeful eyes and didn't dare to look at him directly. His emotions were churning, but he still insisted,"I'm not!"
Hearing this answer, Tianming's face was filled with disappointment. He said in a low voice,"Uncle, thank you for saving my life. Thank you!”As he spoke, he stole a glance at the large man lying on the side without the slightest sign of life. He swallowed a mouthful of saliva and spoke with a trembling voice!
"Is this guy dead?"
The man in white lowered his head to look at the burly man and said indifferently,"He's fine. He's just unconscious! He would wake up after some time!”
When Tianming heard this, he heaved a sigh of relief. His emotions recovered a little and he smiled."Uncle, thank you. My name is Tianming. What's your name?”
When the white-robed man heard Tianming's name, his brows relaxed a little. He looked at Tianming, who was curiously waiting for his answer, and said indifferently,"My surname is Gai and my name is Nie. Tianming, this place is very dangerous! You can't stay here for long. You have to leave with me.”
"Ge Nia, Ge Nia, Ge Nia!" Tianming repeated the words. When he heard Ge Nia say that this place was very dangerous, he looked at the man lying on the ground and nodded in agreement. "Yeah, it's quite dangerous here!”
"Follow me!" As Ge Nia spoke, he extended a large hand in front of Tianming. After a moment of hesitation, Tianming finally extended his hand to hold the large hand.
Under the arrangement of fate, the two hands were tightly held together, as if they would never let go!
