return to peace

With a "bang", the door was kicked open, and Ghost Dao and Qin Jiu broke in.

In the past few days, Wen Lin has learned intermittently from the kidnappers that the man with the scar on his face was once a well-known sharp swordsman in the world, known as the ghost knife, and the handsome young man beside him is Qin Jiu , is the brother of Ghost Saber.

Awakened by this sudden movement, Wen Lin stuck his head out from under the blanket, and seeing such a large group of people, alarm bells rang in his heart.After a while, another head stuck out and leaned against Wen Lin.

"Take the little one away." Ghost Saber ordered.

After saying that, a person came over and pulled Ji Fan, and dragged him outside.Ji Fan immediately panicked, "Brother, brother!", struggling to lean against Wen Lin.

Wen Lin yelled "Stop!"But no one will listen to him.In just a few seconds, Ji Fan was dragged up.

"What do you want to do!" Wen Lin blushed angrily and asked.Ji Fan was shackled and kept struggling.

Ghost Knife watched their reactions carefully, smiled lightly, but his eyes were cold: "What's the hurry? I'm going to let your brother go. Your father sent someone to pick him up."

Wen Lin's mind was in a mess, he really wanted to ask, what about him?What should he do?

"I don't believe it!" He retorted forcefully.

"Then you go and have a look together." After finishing speaking, Ghost Saber left.

Ji Fan and Wen Lin were escorted out.

The first time he walked out of the room, Wen Lin realized that he had been in a village on the mountain. The forest was dense and the village was in ruins. It must have been abandoned for a long time.

After leaving the gate of the village, Wen Lin saw Tao Zhengde standing in front of the gate at a glance, and he was the only one.

"Someone brought it to you, are you sure Wen Ruyu wants to redeem your youngest son?" Ghost Saber asked coolly.

Tao Zhengde glanced at Wen Lin and didn't say anything, which was his acquiescence.

Ghost Sword glanced at Wen Lin with a half-smile, Wen Lin felt really uncomfortable being looked at.He tried his best to convince himself that Wen Ruyu was a tactic to delay the attack, and Ji Fan was young, so it was understandable to redeem him first, but he still couldn't help feeling uncomfortable that his biological father did not choose him as his biological son.

Just as Wen Lin was thinking wildly, a crisp baby voice sounded: "Uncle Tao, I won't leave, I want to redeem my brother first."

Wen Lin was startled, and quickly turned his head to look at Ji Fan, seeing the fearless expression on Ji Fan's dirty little face, his heart softened, and even the previous sadness was a little less.

Ghost knife raised eyebrows and looked at Tao Zhengde.Before Tao Zhengde could speak, Wen Lin persuaded him first: "Xiaofan, you go first. Father will come to save me, don't worry."

Ji Fan has always listened to Wen Lin's words very much, but this time he did not obey: "I won't go, brother will go first."

"You go, or I won't talk to you anymore!" Wen Lin said harshly, and Ji Fan pursed his lips, feeling very wronged.

Ghost Saber seems to be watching this show of brotherly love.He waved to the man holding Ji Fan, and the man pushed Ji Fan towards Tao Zhengde.Ji Fan struggled, but couldn't escape the shackles, he turned his head three times at every step, his eyes were full of uneasiness and reluctance.Wen Lin watched Ji Fan walk away step by step, trying to keep himself calm.

Tao Zhengde finally received Ji Fan, held him firmly in his arms, did not say a word, just gave Wen Lin a meaningful look, and left with Ji Fan in his arms.

"Brother, I'll wait for you to come back!" Ji Fan lay on Uncle Tao's shoulder, looking at Wen Lin with a small face.

Wen Lin lowered his head, not wanting him to see his fragility.Now, he is alone.

That night, Wen Lin huddled in the thin blanket alone, shivering, the night was as cold as water, only his body temperature.When I was half asleep and half awake, I suddenly heard someone shouting outside: "It's flooded! It's flooded! Put out the fire!"

Wen Lin woke up with a start, and through the tulle of the window, he could see the faint flames raging outside and the noise of people.He was about to ask the guards, when suddenly the door was kicked open.

Qin Jiu rushed in, cut off the rope on his feet with a sword, grabbed him and rushed out, "Go!"

"What happened?" Wen Lin looked at the flames outside, feeling a little at a loss.

Qin Jiu didn't respond to him, and kept dragging him out.

Just as they were walking, a subordinate hurried over, and knelt down towards Qin Jiu with a plop, his face was ashamed, and he cried while talking: "Brother Jiu, brother has been arrested! This fire is not accidental at all, it was sent by Wen Ruyu to set it off." !” His cries, reflecting the firelight behind him, doomed this to be a sleepless night.

Wen Lin's face turned pale all of a sudden, he couldn't believe that Wen Ruyu took such a drastic method, did he care about his own son's life?For a moment, he was at a loss, feeling as if he had fallen into an ice cellar.

Qin Jiu's eyes were about to crack, he gritted his teeth, and couldn't help but slap Wen Lin hard, Wen Lin staggered, with bright red five finger marks on his pale face: "If something happens to my elder brother, I'll take you to be buried with him! "

Wen Lin has never seen him look so fierce, and the refined scholar in the past has turned into a fierce and hostile spirit.He was rudely grabbed onto his horse and ran all the way outside the stockade. All the people passing by along the way were screaming.

Wen Lin was completely stunned, he couldn't think at all, he felt like a drowning person, he could hardly breathe, but he couldn't find a piece of driftwood to rely on.

The entire village was surrounded, and hundreds of people were waiting for him. At the front of the line, Wen Ruyu sat on the horse, not saying a word, with complex eyes, no one knew what he was thinking.Tao Zhengde held a sharp sword across the ghost knife's neck and stood silently aside.

Qin Jiu ran out of the stronghold with the remnants of his soldiers, and bumped into Wen Ruyu's side head-on, besieged on all sides.

The two sides faced each other, Qin Jiu was holding Wen Lin in his hand, and Wen Ruyu was holding the ghost knife, and the battle was imminent.

Wen Ruyu saw the five finger marks on Wen Lin's face, her eyes darkened, her face remained motionless, but her hands in her sleeves clenched into fists.

Qin Jiu pulled Wen Lin off the horse, and put his sword against his neck.He shouted loudly to Wen Ruyu: "If you let my elder brother go, I will let your son go!"

At this moment, Wen Lin was in a panic, his temple hair was disheveled, and his clothes were dirty and torn.He pursed his lips tightly, looking at his biological father in front of him, his eyes were sore.The pain in his body was far less than the grievance in his heart.

"Ah Jiu, don't be stupid. Even if Wen Ruyu can let us go, can King Rui let us go?" Although Ghost Saber has injuries all over his body and is controlled by others, he can see it more clearly than anyone else.He sneered, and looked at Wen Ruyu coldly: "Oh, who would have thought that you, Wen Ruyu, would not even want your own son."

Wen Ruyu didn't even look at him, her eyes were fixed on the knife on Wen Lin's neck.Said in a deep voice: "I, Wen Ruyu, have always kept my word. As long as you let Wen Lin go, I will protect you all."

Qin Jiu said anxiously: "Then let my elder brother come over first."

"No."

"There are so many of you, you are afraid that we will go back on our word."

"No." Wen Ruyu firmly refused to comment.

The fire in the back is diffuse, and it will soon spread to the outside of the village.

"Then exchange together!" Qin Jiu had to compromise.

Wen Ruyu nodded to Tao Zhengde, but her eyes were still fixed on Wen Lin.At this time, Wen Lin lowered his head, and his scattered temple hair covered his eyebrows and eyes, so he couldn't see his expression clearly.Both sides stepped forward at the same time and exchanged hostages.

Almost reaching the middle ground, whoosh!A sharp arrow pierced Ghost Knife's throat, and blood splashed everywhere, spraying Wen Lin's head and face not far away.

At that moment, Wen Lin quickly broke free from the rope binding his hands, took advantage of Qin Jiu's moment of daze, pushed him away, and ran forward like crazy.He asked Ji Fan to help him bite the rope, just for this unexpected need.

"Help someone!" Wen Ruyu lost her composure and shouted anxiously.

At the same time, Qin Jiu had already charged over with his sword. "kill"!Ghost knife is dead, and he is desperate.

Wen Lin thought that he could escape successfully, but he was still one step short.When Tao Zhengde was about to receive him, someone kicked his left waist fiercely, and his thin body flew sideways.

He fell to the ground, his body was in severe pain, his eyes were dark, he was dizzy, and the smell of blood kept coming up from his throat.He swallowed forcefully, and crawled forward with his survival instinct.

"Don't climb any further!" Amidst the noise, he heard Wen Ruyu's voice, full of panic.

He's blinded now, and can't see what's ahead at all.Wen Yan still obediently wanted to stand up and hide to the side.At this moment, he felt a burning pain in his back, and the momentum brought by the knife on his back made him, who had not yet stood still, jump forward.

"Alin—"!Desperate voice.

The moon was covered by dark clouds, and the entire sky was like a black curtain, except for the fire on the ground, which raged without scruple.
