Merit Book·Xinghai

On the huge wasteland, there are criss-cross gullies, hundreds of meters long and several meters wide.

The edges are smooth and sharp, and the ground seems to be tofu cut tens of thousands of times by a supremely sharp knife.

There is not even a bit of green in the vast yellow land, only the ugly and twisted Baier wood is growing tenaciously.

The faint wind whimpered, rolling up yellow sand and hovering in the air.

This is a dead place, and there seems to be no vitality in the air.

But here, it used to be a grassland like the sea, with green trees, and at the turn of spring and summer, flowers bloomed everywhere, colorful and extremely colorful.

Rong Yuan closed his eyes, and seemed to see the scene of Wan Lei falling like a torrential rain again.

.........................................................

Within a radius of ten thousand miles, the vitality was drained.

The fertile black land gradually turned into a piece of yellow sand.

The green grass blades turned into withered black and yellow leaves in the blink of an eye, and they were broken into countless tiny pieces by the wind.

In an instant, the leaves of the tall trees turned into ashes, curled, withered, cracked, fell, and collapsed.

The frightened bird fluttered its wings and flew high in the air. Suddenly, the flying body stiffened instantly, and the wings stopped dancing, like a heavy stone falling to the ground.

The gray rabbit jumped up from the grass, its body changed from round to shriveled in mid-air, its shiny fur lost its luster, and its body hit the ground with a "bang", its dehydrated and shriveled black eyes stared blankly at the sky.

What is even more eye-catching is the rows of black troops that fell down like wheat blown by the wind.

The wolf cavalry waved their weapons, let out a loud cry of killing, and then... fell down.

The weapon fell to the ground, the armor scattered, and the leaping beast fell heavily, stirring up a cloud of dust.

The panicked expression of the silver-haired royal family who was about to flee still remained on his face, but the voice stopped abruptly in the middle of shouting, and when he landed, his handsome face had become as terrifying as a mummy that had been exposed to the sun for half a year in the desert.

The giant beast on which the emperor was riding raised its head to the sky and let out a long hiss. After struggling for a while, it collapsed like a collapsing hill.

Next to the fallen body of the giant beast, a black beetle was upturned with six legs. After a clear "click", a hemispherical wing landed on the sand.

Among the thousands of miles, the powerful army that was murderous not long ago, the colorful and picturesque grassland scenery, and the countless animals living in it, almost in the blink of an eye, there are only yellow sand and corpses left.

silence.

Dead silence.

terror.

Only Qiyang, Qidan, Karenbi and others who followed were safe and sound.

The people who were prepared for the deadly battle were not injured at this time, but they didn't feel lucky in their hearts.

Looking at the man standing alone in the middle of the yellow sand, his face was a little pale, a little haggard, a little tired, a little indifferent, just like before, it seemed that he would disappear suddenly because he was tired of this world at any time, and he seemed to be independent from the world since ancient times. A cold-eyed bystander.

His expression is still gentle, without anger or resentment, let alone killing intent, such a light expression, in the past, would make them feel a little alienated, but also a little relieved and admired.

But this time...

"What kind of person did we bring back!" Someone let out a low moan-like sigh.

"This... is this really a human?"

Someone couldn't help but ask back.

Everyone was startled, Qi Qi stared at the speaker fiercely and terrified, and saw that he suddenly came to his senses after he finished speaking, his face was as white as paper in fright, and he looked at Rong Yuan tremblingly.

Rong Yuan was actually far away from them, and his expression didn't change, maybe he didn't hear it.Everyone breathed a sigh of relief, and suddenly some people felt a kind of scalp-numbing fear.

――What are we afraid of?

They secretly raised their eyelids and looked at the man.

They respected that figure, and they were familiar with that look.

Usually, when teaching them advanced knowledge and instructing them to practice various fighting skills, he looks like that.

He also had the same look when he chopped off the half-moon Wolf Clan castle like tofu with a wave of his finger.

He still had that look when he turned tens of thousands of people into mummies in a few breaths.

Will there be a day... just because you are tired, bored, or something is not what you want...

Will he flick his fingers with such a gentle and non-angry expression, and bury all of them in the same way?

Even though he knew that Rong Yuan was fighting for them at this time, even though he knew that they could have their current life because of Rong Yuan's help, even though he knew that these were all nonsense and absurd conjectures...

They all know how low this probability is.Not unappreciative, not in awe, but...

What if?

If one day, such an attack is directed at them, or at their children, will they have the power to resist?

The saddest thing is not that they don't believe in Rong Yuan's character, but that they don't believe in their own character.

No one is pure and flawless, even a child who looks innocent and ignorant has his own dark side in his heart.

There is only that man, he is high, he is perfect, he is selfless and noble, he can make no mistakes.

Everyone owes him, and he owes no one.

He is like a mirror, clearly reflecting the stupidity, insidiousness, meanness, selfishness, narrow-mindedness, arrogance, ignorance, greed, and cowardice of each of them...

Without any extra words, when those eyes swept over, everyone he saw would feel great pressure.

Therefore, although Rong Yuan seldom speaks, never scolds, or even makes any clear requests, everyone will become respectful and polite in front of him, will show their best side, and will desperately push themselves to the limit Come learn and exercise.

Because I dare not face the faint disappointment and indifference that may appear in those eyes.

So they feared him, but no one dared to get close to him except his two brothers and sisters.

not to mention……

Whether Rong Yuan will show hostility towards them is one thing.

And if Rong Yuan thinks that they are wrong and shouldn't exist, they don't even have the ability to escape, not to mention resistance, that's another matter.

The seeds of fear and doubt were so quietly planted.

.........................................................

For Rong Yuan, that period of time was the loneliest, most helpless and most confused time in his life.The grief and helplessness in his heart was second only to the time when he learned the news of the death of his best friend Jin Yang, who was like a blood relative.

Before the accident that wiped out the entire army, Jin Yanggang died a few years ago.

Between heaven and earth, there is no place for shelter.

He indulged himself in grief for a long time, and he did everything according to his heart, without considering the consequences or right or wrong.

After that, he gradually came out of that emotion, but that period of time had become a pain in his heart, and he subconsciously avoided that memory. Sometimes, he really thought he had forgotten it.

But when I think about it for a while, it is clearly still vivid in my mind.

Yes, with his memory, even after hundreds of years, it will still be as clear as yesterday, how could he forget it?

In the torrential rain, someone screamed: "What did we do wrong? Why did we treat us like this? Why?!!"

……

The little child has a pair of pointed, big, fluffy ears, and holds a red fruit tightly in his arms. He is lying on the ground, his eyes are closed tightly on his bloodless face, as if he has fallen asleep.

……

A bright light tore through the sky, and a man with disheveled hair was holding a strange-looking weapon, dancing around, looking crazy, crying and laughing: "Kill him! I killed that devil! Hahaha Hahahahahahaha..."

……

The burning torches at night illuminated the distorted, fearful, depressed, and crazy expressions on the faces of the crowd. The flames jumped, and the expressions of the crowd were like demons. Qiyang doesn't understand the big truth, and I don't understand the high-sounding words you said, but I know that Mr. Rong has been kind to us, and you are ungrateful if you do this! It's not as good as a beast!"

……

A similar but younger face with unkempt hair, he knelt on the ground, knocked his head heavily on the ground, and said with tears, "Father... passed away..."

When he stretched out his hand to help, the young man kneeling on the ground suddenly raised his head, the eyes covered by the broken hair shot out the light of hatred, and a cold light pierced him...

……

"Why, hahaha..."

The thin and pale young man laughed wildly and said, "I never imagined that you would ask such a boring question. Why? Naturally, it is for the freedom and survival of human beings!"

This is the student he was most optimistic about.

The young man said with a grim expression: "Shooting, force bearing, calculation, angle... You have always taught us these boring things! But you have never been willing to impart real power to us! I beg again and again, I knelt on the ground and begged you, but what did you say? You said we couldn't learn it, hahaha..."

"You didn't give us a chance to try at all, how do you know we won't learn? If we have such a powerful force, my parents won't die!"

"I know, you are just afraid that we have such power, and that you will no longer be able to easily control us!"

……

Still that young man, he sneered and said, "The winner is the king and the loser is Kou, come on, kill me!"

"Kill us, let me see how ruthless your heart is! Your blood...cough cough...how cold is it!"

"Kill!" Another bearded man writhed on the ground like a bug and shouted, "If I don't kill you, %##^..."

"As you wish!" said the extremely cold voice indifferently.

The light of death suddenly appeared, and a figure suddenly jumped out to block the thin young man.

Several people were cut in half together.

The young man's frantic expression instantly turned pale. He raised his hand tremblingly, regardless of the injury he was also cut in half, trying to pick up the survivor's intestines that were dripping all over the floor.

"Brother...Brother...No, it's not like this...It can't be like this..."

The young man cried out in a daze like a child, trembling his lips.

The honest-looking young man looked at his expression, grinned, and said comfortingly, "Brother, don't cry, I...I'm fine..."

He curled his lips, and said with some grievances: "...It just hurts a little."

Then, he forced a smile, looked at Rong Yuan, and begged, "Teacher, my brother made a mistake, don't be angry... If you want to be angry, just hit me... I'm not afraid... I'm not afraid of pain..."

He told a lie, then exposed it himself.

The young man pursed his lips aggrievedly, endured and endured, and finally couldn't help but sigh:

"Ah, it hurts..."

He stopped breathing.

The young man opened his mouth wide and cried bitterly, but no sound came out of his throat.Until the moment of his death, hot tears still welled up in his eyes.

……

The thin, old woman with gray hair knelt on the ground, covered her face with her hands and cried, "Please, please leave! Please leave!"

"You are not from our place. Please, go back wherever you came from!"

"We don't need your help...just please...don't make us suffer any more...don't let my children die..."

"I know, we are sorry for you, but haven't we died many people? So much blood, so many young and good guys have died, can't you calm down your anger?"

"My poor child... when those people decided to fight against you, our family voted against it! We didn't do anything, we really didn't do anything, why...why did my husband and The sons are all dead..."

"Please, leave...leave...leave...leave..."
