Arknights is too real, right?

After leaving Dongzhou Prefecture, we followed the caravan to the riverside to eat hot pot and sing songs. However, just as we started our wonderful journey, we encountered this outrageous bandit attack.

For such a bloody thing, anyone can't help but curse.

But now Xia Fengqi Guiqi has nothing to do. Who makes him a "sick" now.

But having said that, even though he was not a member of the caravan, for the sake of the bowl of porridge that the caravan leader had just treated them to, he would not stand idly by and run away.

The most important point is that if the caravan is wiped out, he and Bagpipe Fengbao will have no carriage to ride in.

After picking up the Shenyue Knife that had fallen by the river, Xia Feng looked in the direction of the bonfire by the river.

"Swish swish swish swish!"

Sharp crossbow arrows were still shot out of the dense forest. The torch he just threw fell to the ground and went out, having no illuminating effect at all.

The masters responsible for escorting the caravan dodged left and right, and were able to withstand long-range attacks with the weapons in their hands, but the logistics personnel responsible for driving the car were a bit miserable.

Some people kept screaming when they were hit by arrows, and some even picked up the iron pot they had just used to cook porridge and put it on their heads, or hid under the straw mat and shivered.

Xia Feng made a quick judgment.

This won't work. The enemy is in the dark and we are in the clear. If you continue to waste your money, you will be regarded as a living target.

"Bagpipe, cover me!"

Picking up a jar containing tea leaves from the carriage, Xia Feng decisively poured out the tea inside, then rushed to the river under the cover of bagpipes and filled it with water.

There were several fires lit at night next to the bonfire where he was resting just now. Xia Feng rushed over and poured water on them, extinguishing all the fires without hesitation.

The entire riverside suddenly fell into darkness.

"Lean down, stop running around, and find cover!"

As soon as the fire went out, the caravan members were stunned. Also stunned were the bandits who fired hidden arrows in the dense forest.

Although the moonlight above the head is still bright, it takes some time for human eyes to adapt. During this gap, the entire caravan must change from passive to active.

It is difficult for people to maintain rational judgment in chaos, especially when they are suddenly awakened from a deep sleep. Of course, except for Bagpipe, who was a soldier, and Xia Feng, who has experienced countless dangerous situations.

The members of the caravan were saved by Xia Feng's actions. Later, panic turned into anger. Everyone took out weapons in the darkness and prepared for battle.

The caravan captain was hit by an arrow in his arm. At this moment, he gritted his teeth and broke the arrow into pieces, and ordered in a low voice.

"Don't worry about the carriage yet, find cover and don't move around, pay attention to your surroundings!"

"yes!"

This is the right choice. The horse has been tied and will not run away on its own. Before the battle is completely over, whoever cares about the carriage is a fool.

In other words, whoever survives this encounter will get the carriage.

"Swish swish!"

Several more crossbow arrows were fired in the dense forest, but because everyone had found a bunker, it had no effect.

For a moment, the noise just now was replaced by dead silence.

Everyone held their breath. Because of the darkness, there was no need to look too far away. All attention could only be focused on what was nearby.

As long as the enemy dares to get close, it will be a hearty hand-to-hand combat.

Crouching behind a big stone by the river, Bagpipe held onto his spear.

"Stop fighting with them. I'll go over alone and annihilate all these bandits."

Xia Feng grabbed the bagpipe.

"Auntie, do you know how many people there are? I am in a special situation and cannot protect you."

"Who used you to protect me?"

"Whether you use it or not is your business, and whether I protect you or not is my business. Anyway, I can't let you kill him alone."

Although Bagpipe is a woman, the situation at this time is obviously a professional counterpart for her.

For her, who graduated from the Royal Guards College and was a soldier, she was already extremely skilled at handling such small-scale field encounters.

The only flaw may be that she has no teammates and cannot complete combat coordination.

However, the unit where Bagpipe once served was the Special Forces Brigade of the Northern Military Region. For special forces, each person has his own way of dealing with it.

"Leave me alone, I can handle it easily by myself!"

Xia Feng grabbed Bagpipe's arm tightly.

"No, I can't help you now."

"Who helped you?"

"You are a girl, I can't let you go alone."

"Then you come too."

"I'm a little weak right now, and I might fall off the chain."

Bagpipe read a meaning from Xia Feng's words, which was extreme machismo.

"Xia Feng, why are you always like this? You have to do any dangerous things. As long as you can't do it, you won't let your friends do it. Can't you trust others?"

Bagpipe's words made Xia Feng speechless for a moment. Thinking about it carefully, he seemed to be like this.

He always uses his own level to measure the danger of an event. Once a task exceeds his own ability to control, he will not allow others to take risks.

Looking back now, throughout the entire process of Kuroba's rise, he has always been self-centered and dominated development, and all actions were personally arranged by him after consideration.

He is not a commander, but a patriarch, because he really cherishes his friends who are willing to follow him.

But from the perspective of the observer, this relationship is unbalanced, because the so-called friends are mutual.

Thinking about it now, it seems that he has never completely trusted his friends, nor has he relied on anyone willfully.

He was just a person who accidentally broke into this world. Without his intervention, maybe everyone would be their own protagonist.

Maybe the Red Knife is far more powerful than he thought, Lapland doesn't need so much care, and Froststar and the Snow Monster team are already used to going through life and death.

If he was willing to lower his profile and rely entirely on Master Xiao, some things might not be so troublesome at all.

Just as he wants to do his best for his companions, in everyone's hearts, they may also want to work hard for him.

It's just that he, who was once as strong as everyone's patriarch, doesn't allow everyone to do this.

"Let go, don't hold me!"

The hand holding the bagpipe was freed, and Xia Feng looked at the back of the bagpipe holding the spear in a daze, preparing to rush out of the rock.

Now that he has lost his black power and has not recovered from his serious injuries, he is just an ordinary weakling.

Perhaps, he should learn to actively rely on others.

Rely on others and leave the most dangerous road to important people to tread on the unknown road of life and death?

No.

This mentality only lasted less than a second in my heart.

"Come back here!"

The hand that had been freed by Bagpipe tightened her grip again. Xia Feng grabbed her arm tightly and shouted like a mangy dog.

"This is how I am, I've always been like this, and I can't change it in this life. I don't care about anything else. Anyway, I just don't allow you to step into unknown dangers under my nose, Xia Feng!"

Xia Feng's behavior looked like a naive child to Bagpipe.

Obviously, what they had experienced together was many times more dangerous than the situation at this moment, just like the two of them had entered an infected area late at night in northern Victoria.

It may seem unreasonable to outsiders, but Bagpipe quickly understands.

For Xia Feng, this is a principle he has always adhered to.

It was quiet by the river, except for the noisy summer wind and bagpipes that kept coming.

The caravan members who were hiding from the crossbows behind the bunker were dumbfounded. In their eyes, this scene was like the unreasonable hero and heroine of an idol drama.

Of course, they may not have watched the idol drama.

"What time has it been? You two, stop complaining about my nonsense and hide away quickly."
