aftershock

The headlights illuminated the muddy road with no outlines ahead in the endless darkness of the night, and the crazily grown trees on the side of the road were crooked and stretched out to the point of being shapeless, making the small car inside appear fragile and vulnerable.

In the rearview mirror, Gu Lv bent down and put his forehead against the front seat, his hands were tightly covered on his face, and his eyes could not be seen. The road was no longer smooth, and gravel and bumps kept him bumping into the seat .

Still unable to find the direction, Peng Yang frowned while turning the steering wheel, Lin Ze turned his head worriedly, "Mr. Gu..."

Gu Lv didn't raise his head, it was obvious that he was already nearby, they turned around several times but still couldn't figure out the direction on this road, Gu Lv didn't make a sound for a long time, but everyone knew that he had endured to the extreme.

"Have you found it?"

"No.."

"parking"

Lin Ze was nervous all the way, and almost forgot to worry about whether Cao Xiaowang had died in the car. Peng Yang braked, and the car rushed forward again. Gu Lu got out of the car and took Cao Xiaowang out of the trunk and threw him on the ground. Cao Xiaowang's expression turned pale. The whole person seemed to be fished out of the bloody water, and the strong smell of blood made people cover their noses. The moment Peng Yang took a look at his trunk, Gu Lv stepped on Cao Xiaowang's broken hand.

"Guide the way"

I hated them so much, but also hurt them so much, Cao Xiaowang hated them viciously, "You... guess what.. dog days. Ah!!!."

"Guide the way"

"Ha! It deserves it, here...is a village...a fork...so many...I...how did I know...heh..."

"Ah!! You...you will kill me..."

"Kill me, and I..."

Gu Lv's eyes were not focused, and he was out of his mind. He crushed Cao Xiaowang with his shoes, but he couldn't hear Cao Xiaowang's cries at all, and he couldn't feel Lin Ze's obstruction.He was pushed back by Peng Yang, his feet softened, and he almost fell down.

"Mr. Gu!"

Like a person whose family has been ruined and has reached a desperate situation after bankruptcy, Gu Lu didn't know where he was looking, full of despair, he unconsciously broke away from Lin Ze's hand, and took several steps back into the dark place.

He shook his head, his lips trembled slightly, and a line of tears fell from his face without warning.

"Lin Wang... said he would not be able to hold on..."

"He can't take it anymore..."

"I can't wait anymore..." Gu Lu murmured and turned around, instead of going to the car, he walked in the opposite direction. Lin Ze hurried to pull him, only to hear him repeating "I can't wait...he won't wait" It's..."

"Yes, Mr. Gu"

"No...he won't...he has been...he is more ruthless than anyone else..."

"How do you know he won't wait?" Peng Yang pinched Gu Lv's elbow with great force, and stopped abruptly on the road. "Where are you going? You won't look for it now? You know that he won't wait." ? He's still alive! He'll die if you don't go!"

Gu Lv looked at the dark road in confusion, there was no one under the strong light of the headlights, only darkness.He knows how much Jiang Yuan doesn't like the dark, how painful Jiang Yuan is, how long Jiang Yuan has lived such a painful and hopeless life, and for the past ten years, he has struggled too hard, tired and painful.

He wanted to find Jiang Yuan so much, so much.

"Gu Lu!" Peng Yang took a deep breath, "Do you know how good it is to be alive?"

"Stop wasting hope."

How good it is to be alive is the hope of the dying.

Gu Lv never felt how good it was to be alive. He couldn't figure out how good these ten years were. To be alive is to be alive, but to be dead can end all these disasters.

No one can understand the silent and hopeless collapse. When the sun rises on this day, the time set in his life will come to an end.

He doesn't have such a strong heart to bear, and he doesn't have such a strong and brave heart. He can't bear anything. He collapsed into ruins a few hours ago. He has never understood human feelings since he was a child. All living beings are not equal, you have to give what you get, even if Xu Jingxing took him across the ocean, even if everyone said they wanted his heart, he never felt despair.But at this moment, he was even more desperate than Cao Xiaowang who was thrown on the side of the road.

It was because he had a deep understanding and realized that Jiang Yuan was never a desperate person, he was always a person without any hope.

Gu Lu's feet are soft, and so are his hands.

He was stuffed into the car by Peng Yang and Lin Ze, watching them numbly answering the phone back and forth, looking more anxious than him.

The loud ringtone of the mobile phone came from him, and he looked at the word "Xu Xuan" dumbly, but didn't know how to answer it, his whole soul seemed to have left.

"Hello? Xu Xuan?"

The car was instantly quiet, and even Peng Yang pricked up his ears, but when the voice on the phone rang, Lin Ze was disappointed again.

"No...no...it's me, I'm Xu Sheng..."

"Xu Sheng?"

"I saw you...you came to find Xu Xuan, right? You promised me a condition...I'll take you there..."

The prison has long been regarded as an ominous place by the villagers of several nearby villages, and all the villages are trying their best to plant trees in this corner to cover it up. If it wasn't for his subordinates occasionally using it for trading, Xu Sheng would not have been able to find such a place.

Xu Sheng may be worried that he won't get the money, and there is really no place to sell the butterfly covered in diamonds, let alone have other uses.

He didn't want to admit that he still had a little conscience, because he was afraid that Xu Xuan would really die here.He hid near here, suffering and distressed, he didn't know if he was delaying to leave, was he wanting to destroy Jiangyuan or hoping to save Xu Xuan's humble life.

As a result, he didn't think too much about what caused Gu Lv. When he saw him getting off the car at this moment, he felt a desire to seek protection.

However, when Xu Sheng came out from the treetops, the man with bloody flesh at his second glance recognized that it was Cao Xiaowang. He stayed there in shock, and immediately pointed out the way without anyone speaking.
