Comprehension against the sky, creating the Five Thunders in the real world
Chapter 855 Death is coming
"boom!"
Lin Beichen picked up the Desert Eagle and fired a shot at Hack's head.
In that instant, the situation reversed. The once arrogant and domineering Hack was now dead. He died without understanding who had fired the shot. Lying on the ground, Hack's eyes were wide open, clearly dying with disbelief in their gaze.
"I'm so glad you're all alright. Luckily I arrived in time."
Ma Li was still a little scared. When the gun went off, he thought he had made a mistake.
The first shot rang out, followed immediately by a second, which terrified Ma Li.
He initially thought he had missed with his first shot, but upon closer inspection, he discovered that his first shot had actually hit the target.
It turned out that the second shot was fired by Lin Beichen.
The guy who had pointed a gun at them was now lying in a pool of blood.
"Oh, it's you. I was wondering who would lend a hand at this time. You really came just in time. By the way, isn't this your first time handling a gun? How did you manage to hit him from so far away?" Lin Beichen asked, somewhat puzzled. He remembered that Ma Li had never touched a gun before.
The distance between them is nearly 100 meters.
For these specialized special forces soldiers, hitting the target accurately from this distance might not be difficult.
But for someone like Ma Li who has never touched a gun before, it's much more difficult.
"I admit, I did gamble a bit just now, cough cough, but as it turns out, I won the bet." Ma Li smiled shyly. He also felt that his approach of betting his life was a bit risky, but the result was good, and that was enough. He was even a little proud of himself.
It seems that luck is on my side after all.
It is true that good deeds are rewarded and evil deeds are punished; it's not that retribution won't come, it's just that the time hasn't arrived yet.
Even God is on our side; that guy deserved to die.
Of course, the reason he dared to fire and take this gamble was mainly because Lin Beichen and Yu Feng were crouching on the ground with their hands behind their heads. Even if he accidentally shot, he wouldn't hurt his own people.
If Lin Beichen and Yu Feng were standing, he definitely wouldn't have dared to fire.
He cannot accept the risk of potentially killing his own people.
Hearing Ma Li say that the shot was entirely due to luck, Lin Beichen was stunned for a moment, then smiled and looked at Hack lying on the ground with his eyes wide open in death, feeling a little emotional.
“Maybe this is karma. He’s done too many bad things, that’s why he’s so unlucky.” Ma Li wholeheartedly agreed with Lin Beichen’s words, but Yu Feng just pursed his lips.
He wasn't interested in these superstitious and ghostly claims.
"Why, you don't believe it?"
Lin Beichen happened to notice the change in Yu Feng's expression and asked seriously.
“Actually, I could tell from his dark expression that he was in for some trouble today. So I was thinking that you might take advantage of the moment he attacked me to launch a surprise attack. I bet you thought about that too.” Lin Beichen spoke frankly, without any attempt to hide his intentions.
His relationship with Yu Feng is extremely close.
Yu Feng readily admitted to this.
“I did consider taking this opportunity to kill him, but after thinking it over, I felt it was too much of a loss. It’s simply not worth trading your life for the life of such a small fry.”
Yu Feng analyzed it with an air of seriousness.
Ma Li was startled to see Yu Feng so readily admit to this dangerous idea.
But when he saw that Lin Beichen also looked indifferent, he understood.
These two must be close brothers who have been through thick and thin together.
“We were too careless before. We didn’t expect that Rum and Czech’s deaths had already been discovered by them. Now, let’s leave it to the higher-ups to handle,” Lin Beichen said to Yu Feng.
Then he turned to look at Ma Li.
“You can’t stay here any longer. Go back and pack your things, and then find a safe place to live in Myanmar. As for money, I can apply for subsidies for the three of you on behalf of the higher-ups.”
With empty sleeves, how could he delay the beauty? With such poverty, how could he dare to step into a bustling place? At the moment, he had no interest in women. In his view, women would only hinder his speed in drawing his gun. If he had no woman in his heart, he could naturally perform exceptionally well when drawing his gun.
The primary principle for carrying out a mission is to sever all emotional entanglements.
"We'll talk about this later. If you keep nagging like this, I might really hit you!" Lin Beichen slapped Yu Feng on the back of the head.
Saying a few words is fine, but constantly repeating it like that is a bit disrespectful.
Yu Feng cried out in pain, but had no choice but to suppress the burning gossip fire within him. Even if he wanted to discuss the topic further, he could only keep it to himself.
Ma Li, standing to the side, cast an admiring glance his way.
Lin Beichen's attitude towards women earned Ma Li's utmost admiration.
This is what a real man is like: indifferent to women, steadfast in pursuing his goals, and unwavering in the face of external influences. This spirit and perseverance are something I should learn from.
"I want to become stronger, I want to work hard to change the status quo, and I want to protect everything I cherish." Yu Feng secretly vowed in his heart.
Lin Beichen had no idea that his casual action had spurred Yu Feng to make such a firm decision. Of course, even if he had known, he wouldn't have cared too much.
He wouldn't think of himself as particularly noble or great.
Yu Feng was able to change entirely because he himself had a desire for change.
My appearance merely provided him with another opportunity for change, nothing more.
……
"So much time has passed, why haven't they come back yet? Could something have happened to them?"
Ma Li had been gone for about an hour, and Maya, who was still waiting at home, was extremely anxious. She had told the old man several times, but he had not given her a clear answer.
It's not that the old man didn't want to answer Ma Li's question.
The main reason is that the old man is not at ease.
He wasn't sure if Ma Li was safe; what if something went wrong?
"Girl, you've asked me this seven or eight times already."
The old man said helplessly, "Can't you think of things on the bright side? It's best to avoid saying such unlucky things. There's no use in you being anxious. If something really happened to him, going there now will only make things worse. Just stay here and wait patiently; maybe he'll be back soon."
That makes perfect sense.
Going there now would only cause more trouble.
Maya knew this, which is why she kept asking the old man.
She had been holding back because she was worried that her sudden intrusion would disrupt Ma Li's operation. The old man had given her vague answers the previous times, but this time he laid the reality in front of her, leaving Maya with no choice but to sigh helplessly.
"If something really happens to him, then what will happen to us in the future..."
There were some things she didn't want to say. Even if that really happened, life would still go on.
However, life would be exceptionally difficult, not only in terms of material deprivation, but even more so in terms of mental anguish. Maya didn't want to become two pitiful people relying on each other for survival with the old man.
"You brat, how many times have I told you not to say such unlucky things? You still keep saying them! Are you trying to piss this old man to death?" The old man was so angry that he almost fainted.
The two were chatting enthusiastically when Lin Beichen returned with the other two.
They happened to overhear the old man and Maya's conversation; perhaps this is what they mean by "speak of the devil and he appears." Of course, it's also possible that the old man and Maya had been discussing this topic the whole time, so no matter when they returned, they would hear the same thing.
"They all care about you a lot. It seems you two have a deep bond."
"You must cherish this friendship. The dead cannot be brought back to life. After you have avenged yourselves and resolved your inner conflicts, find a safe place to live. Anything you do will be better than this."
Lin Beichen's care warmed Ma Li's heart.
Lin Beichen had previously told him that he would apply to his superiors to arrange stable housing and stable jobs for the three of them. This was no joke; Lin Beichen was never one to make empty promises. Keeping his word was a lifelong belief of his, and his words were as firm as nails driven into the ground.
How could a man of stature break his promise?
Once a word is spoken, it is hard to follow.
“I know, I won’t let you down. If you ever come to Myanmar again, please come and find us. We will be friends forever,” Ma Li said sincerely.
Yu Feng, standing to the side, curled his lip in disdain.
For some reason, everyone who has interacted with my good friend Lin Beichen has absolute faith in him, just like I do. What could be the reason for this? Is it because he's so outstanding?
Seeing Ma Li's indifferent attitude, Yu Feng felt somewhat helpless.
Is the difference between people really that great? Don't I deserve his gratitude?
Ahem, leaving the guests standing there is really too impolite.
Yu Feng inwardly complained about Ma Li, but on the surface he maintained his aloof persona.
It seemed that Ma Li was speaking too loudly, as the old man and Maya in the yard also heard him. At first, they thought they were hallucinating, but they quickly realized that it was not a hallucination, but Ma Li's real voice, which reassured them a lot.
An unprecedented sense of security welled up inside me.
It felt like a huge weight had finally been lifted from my heart.
"I'm so glad you're all alright. I thought something had happened to you." Maya's previous composure was gone, and she looked at Mali with worry.
Lin Beichen's impression of this little girl was still from the moment she drew her bow and shot the arrow that killed Black Tiger. It seems that Ma Li is her deepest weakness. You can't tell anything about her normally, but once Ma Li is in danger, Maya really can't sit still.
Yu Feng watched this scene from the side and couldn't help but feel a little envious.
Such emotional bonds are actually quite nice.
Thinking of this, he then thought of the relationship between Lin Beichen and Chen Lin. He opened his mouth slightly, wanting to say something but then hesitated and ultimately said nothing. After all, emotional bonds have both advantages and disadvantages.
The benefit of emotional bonds is that they can give people unprecedented faith and strength.
However, the downsides are equally obvious: once the person with whom the emotional bond passes away, the person may fall into an extremely bad mental state, which can be understood as "going dark".
"If you don't exist in this world, then I will create a world with you."
This sentence suddenly flashed through Yu Feng's mind.
He had seen this quote online and had also heard it in a typical biography.
"Hate the whole world because of the loved ones who died."
"To overturn the entire world, just to see the person I long for again."
He muttered to himself, thinking of Lin Beichen again. After imagining what would happen if Lin Beichen turned to the dark side, Yu Feng couldn't help but shudder; it certainly wouldn't be a good ending.
……
"Do you want to reconsider what you said before? If you change your mind now, I can talk to the higher-ups. After all, no matter what, there will definitely be danger if a fight breaks out."
"I've made up my mind, I'm definitely going."
"What are you talking about? Ma Li, what else do you want to do? Didn't Brother Lin Beichen just say that he would arrange accommodations and jobs for us? What else do you want to do?"
Lin Beichen originally didn't want to bring this up.
But he felt it was still necessary to speak out.
In case something happens to Mali, Maya and the old man will be mentally prepared.
Lin Beichen didn't say anything at first because he thought Ma Li would bring it up himself.
This is indeed something that Ma Li himself should say.
As an outsider, he shouldn't overstep his bounds and take charge.
But since Ma Li hadn't said anything after so long, Lin Beichen had to speak up in the end.
Regardless of the circumstances, Lin Beichen felt he had the right to speak about Ma Li's actions, as he had arranged for him to go.
In fact, it was just as Lin Beichen had predicted.
I only mentioned it briefly, and Maya reacted very strongly.
Seeing that he could no longer hide the truth, Ma Li had no choice but to reveal his true feelings. This was the first time in his life that he had opened up to Maya and the old man.
This was the first time Maya and the old man had heard Ma Li's true thoughts.
"Ugh!"
After hearing these words, the old man sighed heavily.
He didn't try to dissuade Ma Li from going. People his age understand that, as an old man with experience, he knew that no amount of persuasion would work.
This has become a major worry for Ma Li.
If Ma Li isn't allowed to go, he'll never have peace of mind for the rest of his life.
That's how people who get stuck on a single point are; you could call them stubborn and inflexible. Once they've made up their minds, they won't change their minds. Such people are silly and meticulous, but they're also quite endearing.
The world is more colorful because of people like these.
Maya's eyes instantly reddened; she couldn't remain as composed as the old man. She was worried about Mali's safety, but she knew her words of advice... would likely be useless.
"No matter what, you have to promise me."
As she spoke, two tear tracks appeared on the little girl's face. (End of Chapter)
