The other side.
Elisha huddled in the darkness.
He was trembling all over. Everything he had just experienced was another nightmare for him.
His family was first killed outside the city of Hebron.
Then, in the city of Hebron, he could only watch the city lord David being captured, and he could do nothing except bite his lips to prevent himself from making any sound.
Although the exit was just a dozen steps away, he still didn't dare to leave rashly.
Because the noise outside was so loud, he was afraid that he would be discovered as soon as he escaped.
"Search! Search every room!"
A rough voice sounded outside, but Elisha could tell that these people were not the same group as those just now.
So he could only continue to shrink his body so that he could be completely hidden in the darkness.
"There's another room over here!"
"The door is broken. They were here just now."
"Tsk, damn it."
"Go in and see if there's anything else good!"
Elisha's heart beat faster and he covered his mouth tightly with his hands, afraid of making any sound.
"The leader has already made an agreement with them: whoever grabs the city's belongings first will own them."
"I'm afraid there aren't many here... Oh!"
"What's going on! There are still so many things left!"
One of them suddenly raised his voice and seemed to be getting very excited.
The other man kicked the corpse on the ground and looked up at the big hole in the roof.
"It looks like they put in a lot of effort to get in here."
"They must have come in to arrest someone. Look! There's still a lot of stuff left!"
"This room is really nice, there are a lot of valuable things in it!"
"Hahaha! Take them all, take them all!"
There was the sound of glass being broken, metal colliding, and objects being dragged.
All kinds of harsh sounds mixed together, forcing Elisha to cover his ears.
But even if Elisha closed his eyes tightly and covered his ears, he could not stop the terrible sounds from entering his ears.
Furniture was overturned and sharp objects cut through fabrics.
"Look at this thing, it should be able to sell for a lot of money!"
"And this...what is this?"
"Hmm...so boring. All the writing is about irrelevant things."
When the other person heard this, he simply snatched the thing from his hand, and then there was the rustling sound of papyrus.
"This is from the clerk."
"So this is where the city lord lives! Damn, no wonder there are so many good things!"
"Search! Keep searching!"
Soon, Elisha heard a sharp cry.
"Wow! Look at this golden little thing!"
"Baby, my baby!"
"Now I'm going to make a fortune, hahaha..."
Immediately afterwards, Elisha heard a creepy sound.
That was the sound of swords cutting into flesh, and the dull thud of people falling to the ground.
"ah?!"
“You…you…”
Elisha could even see the man lying on the ground. His voice quickly became blurred, and a large pool of blood soon appeared behind him.
Obviously, he was about to die.
The golden little thing in his hand was pulled away little by little by another rough hand.
“I didn’t expect that there were other soldiers in the city lying in ambush here.”
"I will tell the chief how bravely you resisted and saved my life."
When the man on the ground heard these words, he just mumbled some unclear words, and then he was choked to death by the blood that came out of his mouth.
Elisha covered his ears, but the words and screams were still clear to him.
He had never heard such a terrifying sound, nor had he ever imagined that there could be such darkness inside these people.
Now, only Elisha and one other person were left in the room.
He could even clearly hear the other person's heavy breathing.
"That's great! These things can be sold for a lot of money."
"But what is this?"
As the man spoke, he walked towards where Elisha was.
He seemed to see something shiny on the ground that was reflecting the firelight.
But if he bent down to look, he might be able to see Elisha's eyes, which were illuminated by the fire and trembling constantly.
“Boom… boom…”
The footsteps were getting closer and closer, and Elisha couldn't help but close his eyes.
But even so, he still felt very insecure.
So he squinted his eyes into a slit, trying to see the scene in front of him clearly.
He saw a pair of blood-stained boots less than a meter away from him.
His heart was pounding and he even felt nauseous in his chest and almost vomited.
But how dare he make a sound?
Then, Elisha saw a hand slowly reaching out toward the shiny spot on the ground.
At the same time, there were some thin black lines spreading down, and Elisha immediately realized that they were hair.
His head is approaching the ground!
More and more hair fell down, and Elisha felt his whole body shaking violently, and his mind went blank.
His teeth began to chatter, and he could only quickly put his fingers in his mouth to prevent his teeth from making noises.
