Wu Haoyang looked at Jiang Xiao silently and watched as he released his STAR technique, but he did not disturb him.
Under the rain of light, although the group of ordinary people were still hungry, their condition was rapidly recovering. Their bodies were being repaired in all aspects.
Wu Haoyang noticed that everyone’s faces had turned red and he felt that something was amiss. Why were there two people missing?
Wu Haoyang tugged at Li Mian, who was beside him.”Li Yan.”
“Ah?” Li Juan turned around and looked at Wu Haoyang.
“The number of people is not right. What’s the name of the man with glasses … There’s one more, that …” Wu Haoyang tried his best to recall the two men’s faces.
Even though Wu Haoyang had rescued these people personally, he had to search for other refugees after escorting them back. He had a lot of work to do and even now, he could not remember all the names of these 30-odd people.
Li Mian was silent.
Jiang Xiao turned around and frowned slightly.
That was because he noticed the complicated expression on Li Mian’s face.
It was hard to imagine that such a complicated expression could appear on the face of a 16 or 17-year-old child. It was so complicated that … Jiang Xiao couldn’t even understand it.
Guilt? Anger? Scared?
What did it mean?
To Wu Haoyang’s surprise, not only did the obedient Li Juan not respond, even the civilians did not respond.
As Wu Haoyang’s gaze swept across the room, the people looked away one after another.
“What happened?” Wu Haoyang asked with a frown.
Silence, endless silence …
“Brother, brother Haoyang …. Li Mian stammered. Before he could say anything, an old man who was curled up on the ground suddenly said,”little Wu.”
“What?” Wu Haoyang turned to look at the old man.
The old man’s dry lips trembled slightly as he said,””Xiao Li made his own choice and protected all of us.”
Upon hearing this, Wu Haoyang was stunned.
It seemed … In the few days that he wasn’t around, something happened in this dark cellar?
Jiang Xiao released the blessing light rain and his eyes quietly turned into nine stars.
What had happened?
To make a child reveal such a complicated expression?
Jiang Xiao rewound time and discovered that the group of people were still eating “roasted meat” an hour before he and Wu Haoyang returned.
Barbecued meat, it sounded like a very delicious word.
However, the meat that people were eating was the frozen Walker’s meat.
In the rewinded scene, Jiang Xiao also saw Li Mian holding a piece of roasted meat in his hand and retreating to the frozen ground beside the wall. He then “pressed” the meat onto the frozen Walker’s corpse.
……
Jiang Xiao finally saw the two missing men last night!
Jiang Xiao frowned slightly and rewound a large amount of time before choosing to “play” as usual.
In the quiet and dark cellar, the man with the parted hair and glasses and another middle-aged man quietly got up and moved to Li Mian’s side. They seemed to be plotting something.
The dancing bonfire set off the two men’s convincing looks and Li Mian’s incredulous expression.
Jiang Xiao seemed to have read some key words through the mouth movements of the two.
“It’s time to move,””there’s not enough food,””let’s go,””these people are a burden,””a burden”…
Jiang Xiao looked at everything silently and stood in the world where time was reversed. He thought about the group of old, weak, sick, and disabled people in the cellar and finally understood something.
From Li Mian’s reaction, it was obvious that he didn’t agree with the two men’s suggestion. However … Did something unexpected happen after he rejected her?
The two men seemed to be trying their best to keep their voices down as they tried to explain and persuade Li Mian. Li Mian simply stood up, picked up the steel basin, and went out to collect snow water.
The two men looked at each other in a daze, and the accident happened just 20 minutes later.
In for a penny, in for a pound?
Did these two really treat Li Mian like a child and want to act first and report later?
Were they sure that they could defeat Li Mian? No matter what they did, Li Mian would still be soft-hearted and continue to protect them?
Everything changed when the bespectacled man with the parted hair slowly approached a sleeping old man.
The old man slept very lightly. In such an environment, he could not sleep well at all.
The old man opened his eyes when he felt something strange next to him. However, before he could shout, his mouth was covered by a hand, and he could only make muffled sounds.
Then, the man in glasses took out a long nail from his pocket with his left hand …
“Chi ….
At that moment, Li Mian carefully opened the door of the cellar and jumped down with a pot full of snow. When he saw the scene in front of him, the steel pot in his hand fell to the ground.
Li Mian hurriedly tried to stop him, but he was too late. The nail had already pierced into the old man’s abdomen …
What happened next was a chaotic scene in the cellar.
In such an environment, the struggle to survive had indeed interfered with people’s minds. It had also infinitely magnified the human characteristics hidden deep in their hearts.
Jiang Xiao saw Li Yan pressing the man to the ground and asking loudly while kicking away the bespectacled man’s companion who tried to stop him.
A young girl hurriedly went to the old man’s side and helped him press his lower abdomen. The others used both their hands and feet to stay far away from the old man’s position and hide.
Jiang Xiao strode forward and walked towards the man who had been subdued by Li Yan.
Jiang Xiao squatted down slowly and watched as the man got agitated and began cursing.
“They all have to die”,”he has lived long enough”,”waste”,”drag us down”…
The series of keywords coupled with the man’s crazed look made Jiang Xiao know that he had already broken down.
In such a special environment, it would not be strange for him to do anything.
Perhaps, he wanted to leave more resources for himself.
Or perhaps, with one less civilian, the man would have more opportunities to receive Li Mian’s care and protection.
Jiang Xiao put away the candle Moon Blessing and as the glow dissipated, Li Mian hurriedly added a few branches to the bonfire.
However, when the people in the cellar saw where Jiang Xiao was squatting, their happy and intoxicated faces were replaced with horror.
Of course, everyone in the basement knew what had happened at the place where Jiang Xiao was squatting. Jiang Xiao’s strange nine-Star Eyes also made everyone tremble in fear.
Star Warrior was a terrifying profession by nature.
Even if … Jiang Xiao had just treated their physical and mental states, showed great kindness, and put it into practical action. However, Star Warriors were still high and mighty “gods” to the civilians.
The glistening nine stars array appeared in Jiang Xiao’s dark eyes, and the first impression that it gave ordinary people was definitely not beauty, but horror.
Under normal social order, the civilians might not think too much about it, because there was order, law, and punishment.
However, in this strange ball without order, life and death were indeed decided by a thought of some Star Warriors.
If this powerful Star Warrior really knew what had happened a day ago, what would his reaction be?
Would Li Mian be punished?
When the incident happened, some people came forward to help, while others stayed far away. More than 30 people were enough to outline the appearance of many people.
What kind of impression would their most honest reactions at that time give this Star Warrior?
The only thing that could give people hope was Jiang Xiao’s reputation.
Most people recognized Jiang Xiao, the person who was active in the world Cup.
On TV and Weibo, no matter how naughty, playful, and friendly this so-called “God Pi” was, it was all useless at this moment.
Even the title of the World Cup champion could not make everyone feel at ease.
The only thing that made everyone feel slightly relieved was … This little toxic healer was a wasteland reclaimer.
In the Second World Cup, his identity was the pioneering team of Beijing Star Warrior University.
If he was a soldier, he would probably …
While everyone was still in a state of mixed emotions, Jiang Xiao had already retracted his Nine Star Eyes.
Jiang Xiao didn’t need to watch what happened next anymore, nor did he want to.
He walked in front of the white-haired old man, squatted down, and lifted up his tattered clothes with one hand. He also saw the tightly wrapped, blood-stained cloth on his lower abdomen.
“Are your injuries better?” Jiang Xiao said.
Fortunately, Jiang Xiao arrived in time and the accident happened last night. Otherwise, the old man might not have been able to make it through even if his wound had been simply bandaged.
The old man hesitated for a moment before saying,””Now … I’m already fine. ”
In an instant, everyone in the cellar completely understood. There was no need to ask at all. This powerful Star Warrior already knew the ins and outs of the matter.
Immediately, everyone became nervous.
“Yes.” Under everyone’s watchful eyes, Jiang Xiao turned around and said to Wu Haoyang,”I have a high-quality living space. It’s very safe inside. I’m going to send them in.”
“What?” Wu Haoyang raised his eyebrows. After seeing Jiang Xiao’s special beam of light and terrifying Nine Star Eyes, Wu Haoyang seemed to have become more mentally resilient.
In comparison, he would rather know what Jiang Xiao had seen with his magical vision technique.
As for the others in the cellar, they all heaved a sigh of relief.
The young man’s action of lifting the old man’s clothes clearly showed that he already knew something, but he seemed to … He didn’t intend to continue this topic.
Under everyone’s watchful eyes, Jiang Xiao opened the door to the world of calamity and shadows.
In an instant, a warm aura gushed into the cellar from the door.
“Come on.” Jiang Xiao took the lead and walked in while everyone looked at each other. However, the old man didn’t give up and tried his best to get up before walking in.
A wave of heat hit him in the face, and the old man stood there dumbly.
Blue sky, white clouds, beach, and sea …
To suddenly walk into this place from the dark and cold environment was like walking into heaven.
Behind them, commoners in tattered clothes walked in and covered their eyes with their hands …
Jiang Xiao said,”according to the coordinates on earth, this is North America. It’s an ancient island close to the Tropic of Cancer. The temperature is above 20 degrees in winter. You guys can survive here first.”
Jiang Xiao then disappeared without a trace.
The people who had barged in from the dark environment gradually adapted to the light and looked around in a daze.
In the next second, Jiang Xiao appeared in front of everyone with Jiang Shou.
After that, Jiang Xiao left again. When he returned again, he was accompanied by eight crouching bull …
“Hum~” Hua panniu did not pay any attention to the crowd. He was only very dissatisfied with the environment beneath his feet. In the blink of an eye, the terrain changed and flowers bloomed …
Jiang Xiao waved at Wu Haoyang and Li Mian, who were also dumbfounded, and walked out of the world of calamity and shadows.
As soon as Jiang Shou arrived, he felt everyone’s gaze on him. He casually opened the door to his calamity shadow space.
A Jade-like hand reached out from inside and took out a package full of clothes.
As the door closed, Jiang Shou pointed at the huge package on the ground and said,””There are clothes inside. Choose what you can.”
“I’ll build wooden houses for you guys first,” he continued.”Do you guys want to live together? tell me, and I’ll see how many houses are suitable.”
China would be filled with star beasts in the future, so he would just let the people survive here.
This was a typical tropical rainforest climate. It was warm all year round and suitable for human survival.
While Jiang Shou was settling down the civilians, Jiang Xiao and the other two entered the dark and cold cellar again.
Everything that had happened just now was so unreal that Li Mian still hadn’t reacted.
Jiang Xiao pressed his hand on Li Mian’s shoulder and whispered in the dark,””Some Star Warriors may live their entire lives and still don’t have to face those things. It seems that this world is not friendly to you. ”
Li Mian pursed his lips and remained silent.
“It’s all in the past. ” Jiang Xiao patted Li Mian’s shoulder.
In the dark cellar, Li Mian didn’t care if the two of them could see clearly. He nodded his head heavily …
He didn’t like this kind of experience. If he had a choice, he would go back to half a month ago and promise that he would never go downstairs to light the firecrackers …

[I recommend an anti-routine novel, Xin Yi’s “I am the creator of myths”. The main character is very wild. It’s a new popular Dihua-style novel. The whole process is refreshing. Friends who like it can go and take a look.]
