pick a peach essence

Xiao Qiong's eyes were fixed on the white spot not far from her, and then she clenched the phone tightly.

He slowly followed the girl, walking cautiously, for fear of making any noise.

Xiao Qiong's heart was beating non-stop, he regretted coming here a little bit.

Tall trees grew on this barren mountain, blocking the sunlight, and everything around looked gloomy. With the wailing of crows, Xiao Qiong fell into boundless fear.

Xiao Qiong regretted it very much now.

He felt that he had walked a long way, and was already in the center of this barren mountain, and at the same time, he was getting closer and closer to danger.

Suddenly, the girl he was following stopped.

After Xiao Qiong saw it, she hid in a panic behind a very thick tree trunk, poked her head out and listened carefully to the surrounding sounds with her ears sideways.

After the little girl in front of him stopped, she also hid behind a tree trunk like him, motionless.

At this moment, he heard not far from them, it seemed that someone was arguing.

"Hehe, you kid, I didn't expect you to dare to come?"

It was a very rough voice, and the tone of the speech made people shudder, and it sounded very uncomfortable.

"Give me back my brother."

The next voice sounded very calm, but it still couldn't hide its immaturity.

Xiao Qiong was startled when he heard it, and the little boy who was all injured just now appeared in his mind.

"Brother? Hahaha, yes, of course I can return your brother to you."

After hearing that sentence, the rough voice laughed wildly, and then continued to speak in a very mocking tone.

"If you want your brother, let your father give us his life back."

Then came a sudden silence.

Xiao Qiong wiped the sweat off her forehead, then took a few steps forward cautiously, and hid behind the tree closest to the little girl.

Only then did he clearly see the source of the two voices.

Not far from them, there was a man in black sitting on a rock, playing with a knife in his hand.

On the opposite side of the man, stood a little boy about ten years old, wearing dirty clothes, with large and small wounds all over his body.

Xiao Qiong was stunned for a moment, he was really that kid just now.

But Xiao Qiong had never seen such a embarrassed person.

Because in his more than ten years of life, everyone who appeared in front of him was glamorous and well-dressed.

So Xiao Qiong felt very strange to such a child.

But Xiao Qiong looked at the boy in front of him, and found that even though he was very embarrassed and his whole body was covered with injuries, there was always an aura surrounding him, which was an innate noble temperament.

The little boy just stood upright, raising his head and calmly staring at the man in black in front of him.It didn't look like he was being threatened, but rather he was negotiating with that man.

The man in black didn't seem to have thought that the boy could be so calm. He froze for a moment, and then yelled at the boy fiercely.

"Stop talking nonsense to me. I don't care how powerful your family was before, but it's not what it used to be now."

"How about it, you degenerated from a wealthy young master overnight to a beggar begging on the street, young master Jiang, how do you feel now?"

The man in black laughed arrogantly at the little boy, Xiao Qiong could hear from his words that the boy was also the young master of a wealthy family before, but he didn't know what happened at home to become what he is now .

Facing the cynicism of the man in black, the little boy actually endured it.He just clutched the corner of his clothes tightly.

The boy trembled imperceptibly, but he still stared into the man's eyes motionlessly, and then breathed heavily, suppressing his anger.

"Hahahahahaha!"

Seeing the boy's reaction, the man in black laughed even more wildly.

"Tsk tsk tsk, as expected of Jiang Huaiwei's son."

"It's really kind..."

The man in black walked slowly in front of the boy while talking, then knelt down and looked into the boy's eyes.

"Actually, I kind of miss the days when I worked with your dad, but it's a pity..."

When the man in black said this, his expression slowly softened, showing a trace of pity on his face.

After the boy heard this sentence, he took a few steps back suddenly, and then said in a cold voice: "Don't pretend to be a good person, don't think that I don't know who conspired with the people outside to frame my dad."

The man seemed to be stimulated by these words, and he raised his knife and roared angrily.

"You fart! What do you know, a brat? I worked so hard for your father back then, and I did all the dangerous things. But in the end, what did I get? What I got was betrayal!"

"Not once, not once! He didn't trust me once! I almost lost my life because of him several times, but what about him? Just ask yourself what he did!"

The more the man talked, the more excited he became. He suddenly squatted on the ground with his head in his arms, and then beat the ground with his fists one after another, exhausting every punch with all his strength.

"That's because he knows that people like you are not worthy of his trust. Sooner or later, you will betray him for profit."

The boy was not frightened by the increasingly crazy man in front of him, he still stood there calmly, but the anger in his eyes had long been unconcealable.

"For so many years, my dad has treated you well, so when he knew that you betrayed him, he didn't say anything."

"But what about you! You kidnapped my brother to threaten him?"

"What? You must let my father commit suicide, and you must let him use his own life to make up for his own ignorance?"

The boy endured it for a long time, and finally broke out. He walked up to the man in black trembling step by step, and then pointed at him and yelled angrily.

The more he spoke, the more excited he became, and his eyes were red.

"My brother is a five-year-old kid. What did he do wrong? Tell me, what did he do wrong! Why did you do that to him?"

The boy finally got wet eyes.

He squatted down slowly, and then looked forward without anxiety.

"You let my brother go, okay? I'm willing to exchange my life for him."

After the boy finished speaking, his body that had been tense just now suddenly relaxed. He sat on the ground with his head bowed, without saying a word.

The man in black slowly recovered from his madness. He laughed and stood up, then lowered his head and looked down at the boy who looked like an ant in his eyes.

"Hahahahahaha, okay, okay, Jiang Jinchen, you have the guts!"

The man slowly approached the boy while talking.

Xiao Qiong looked at the scene in front of him holding his breath, he was startled by the sudden laughter, and then came back to his senses.

He suddenly remembered the girl.

After recovering from her senses, Xiao Qiong quickly put her eyes on the girl, and then she saw that the child was panting heavily and trembling non-stop.

He set his eyes on the girl's tightly clenched fist, and suddenly had a bad feeling.

He rushed up with a stride, then grabbed the girl instantly, and stretched out his hand to tightly cover her mouth.

The girl was startled by Xiao Qiong who rushed out suddenly, she wanted to turn back in horror, but Xiao Qiong pressed her whole body against the tree trunk from behind.

"Are you crazy?"

Xiao Qiong lowered her voice angrily and said to the girl.

"What are you going out for?"

Xiao Qiong was really frightened by this girl, his tone of voice trembled imperceptibly.

"Didn't you see, he has a knife in his hand!"

Xiao Qiong felt the girl in his arms struggling hard, and he hugged her even harder.

In anger, the girl suddenly opened her mouth and bit Xiao Qiong's finger.

"hiss……"

Xiao Qiong felt that his fingers were about to be bitten off at that moment, and he pushed the girl away all at once.

"I'm not crazy, who are you, why are you stopping me?"

The girl turned her head, staring at Xiao Qiong's pale face with frightened eyes and frowning.

Xiao Qiong frowned tightly in pain, he looked up at the girl's face, and was suddenly frightened by her eyes.

He saw not only anger in the girl's eyes, but also a kind of determination.

"What can you do when you go out?"

Xiao Qiong rubbed her fingers, then stared at her closely and said, "Are you going out to die?"

He looked at the girl's face that never changed, and almost breathed out.

"What does he have to do with you? Do you know him? You want to die for a stranger?"

Xiao Qiong stared at the girl with an expression of disbelief.

The girl actually laughed when she heard Xiao Qiong's words.

"Of course I don't know him, but since I see that others are in danger, even if it's a stranger, I'm going to help him!"

The girl said these words to Xiao Qiong with a serious and firm face, and Xiao Qiong looked at her like a monster after hearing it.

"Are you absolutely crazy to die for a stranger?"

With a pale face, Xiao Qiong stepped back while shaking her head.

He felt that his world view had collapsed, because he really couldn't think of any reason to die for a stranger.

It's just crazy.

He sat on the ground stiffly with his eyes wide open, and then watched the girl run out without looking back after staring at him.

The girl said something before she left, which made Xiao Qiong remember for a lifetime.

"Because I believe that everything I do now can definitely change the future."

Xiao Qiong trembled and got up and wanted to leave, but now he seemed to have lost all his strength.

He felt dizzy, everything around him lost his voice, and Xiao Qiong couldn't even hear his own heartbeat.

A piece of white appeared in front of his eyes, and in the chaos, he seemed to see a touch of bright red sprayed into the large expanse of white.

Then, covering his eyes, he fell into a chaotic dream.
