Chapter 272 A Dream of Yellow Millet



As she spoke, Rouya moved over there from the air first, and countless electric waves shot out from her body, forming arcs that created a search network in the air to look for traces of living people.

Based on the current situation of the explosion, Qiu Shui's chances of survival are very low.

Reaching this sorrowful conclusion, his heart sank deeper and deeper. He leaped into the air and landed on the stone slab.

The ruins were too vast; all he could see were wreckage. The place had become a living hell. He searched through the chaotic ruins but couldn't find any familiar figures.

"Autumn Water!"

He shouted amidst the ruins.

No one responded.

...

"...But you can kill your sister first, so she doesn't have to suffer here any longer..."

Yue Baoruo stood in front of him, speaking in a calm tone, uttering cruel words.

He fell to the ground, one hand pinned under her high heels. In the darkness, he couldn't see his own reflection; if he could, his face would be covered in sweat.

"Um?"

Above her head, Yue Bairuo raised her voice.

She threatened him?

A cold laugh escaped his lips. He quickly broke free of his restraints and pretended to reach for the gun on the ground. Soon, the muzzle was pressed against Qiu Shui's forehead.

He looked up, but Qiu Shui's face was blurry in his eyes; he couldn't see her expression even with his eyes wide open.

The woman behind them had already let her guard down.

snort!

BOOM!

With a backhand, he fired a shot that landed precisely on Yue Baoruo's hand, who was gloating behind him.

"ah!"

Serves you right!

He cursed under his breath, quickly pulled Qiu Shui up, pushed her onto his back, and then ran quickly into the depths of the alley.

"You all chase after them!"

Countless footsteps followed behind.

We need to speed things up!

He ran through the darkness with the injured Qiu Shui, panting heavily, feeling like a trapped beast with its eyes covered.

Those people behind were indeed shamans; their physique and reaction speed were stronger than ordinary people. This couldn't go on.

They have too many people chasing them; they will eventually find them!

"Shiyang, let me go..."

Qiu Shui's weak voice lingered in his ears from behind, and his back was pressed tightly against hers; he could feel her trembling body.

Idiot, don't talk nonsense!

You can't die here!

The calm he had maintained snapped, and his pace quickened, his steps becoming frantic. He turned left and right through the alley, trying to find a way out.

"Stop right there, you!"

The black witch is chasing after us!

He gritted his teeth, a dull pain shot through his head, and a damp sensation came from behind him, which he could clearly feel.

"Hmm..."

Autumn Water was shot!

In this environment, his brain was almost unable to think, and his exhausted body could only run wildly without direction, driven by instinct. If they fell behind, death would be their only fate!

He wandered around the alley several times, becoming increasingly tired and slowing down.

As more and more people were chasing them, and his physical strength was nearing its limit, a pile of messy plastic buckets suddenly came into his view in the distance.

He glanced around the area a few times.

There's enough room for a person to hide behind those plastic buckets! No one else will see them!

Without hesitation, he quickly turned left into the alley, gently put Qiu Shui down, and hid her in a plastic bucket behind him.

"Don't make a sound!"

He said in a low voice.

He sprang to his feet like a spring, didn't even glance at Qiu Shui, and quickly ran off in another direction.

At that moment, he had only one thought in his mind: get out of here quickly and distract those people behind him!

As expected, when he quickly turned out of another alley, the black witches who were chasing them all caught up with him.

They were all ordinary people, lacking the vigilance and insight of soldiers, which was the only advantage he could exploit.

"Stop right now!"

"You can't escape now!"

The people behind him were in hot pursuit, and some of them were exhausted and had begun to slow down to rest. He, however, was in the lead and dared not relax at all; instead, he ran faster and faster.

A single step can mean the difference between life and death!

A person runs through a maze-like alley, unburdened, with time to think about what to do next.

The map of Luoyi that I saw that morning appeared in my mind; there was an exit here that could lead me out.

Seeing that he had left the others behind, he gradually calmed down. After a few back and forths, he found the way out and carefully ran to Qiu Shui's side.

He had shaken off those people and was now preparing to take her away.

The plastic bucket came into his view. Before he could see the zero numbers above Qiu Shui's head in the darkness, he cried out in alarm and felt as if his body was on fire!

My hearing vanished instantly, and my skin burned and curled up...

The blood hole in his chest was still oozing blood, and the flames had already turned the blood that hadn't dried up into black ash!

All the pain he endured appeared in an instant and disappeared in an instant; his consciousness gradually faded away.

In the last moment before his consciousness faded, he wanted to turn back and look at Qiu Shui one last time.

He wanted to ask a question.

At the last moment, the images of the shikigami and the old man flashed before his eyes, finally settling on the smiling Haitang.

Unfortunately, when he tried to open his eyes wide and move his lips to make a sound, all he saw was darkness.

...

"Father, Father!"

What was that sound?

Shh—come on, let's do it this way~

That voice sounds so familiar...

Well!

Something's on his ear, it's so itchy!
