Phoenix in the sky

Chapter 11 Jumping into the river to escape ([-])

The night was as cool as water, the sky was covered by a shady curtain, the cold wind was blowing, and the heart was chilled. Leng Yue, who walked out of the ruined temple, shivered.A few days ago, I still had a happy family. I was still a happy child, loved by my parents. At night, I hid in the warm bed and listened to my mother telling stories or singing songs.

But now I want to flee in this icy cold night, leaving the place where I was born and raised, only for the betrayal of my relatives and the temptation of power.

Relatives, hum, Leng Yue sneered.Mother's only younger brother, a family member that mother has been protecting and maintaining carefully since she was a child.But what did the mother get for her efforts? She was betrayed, killed, and her family was destroyed.

If even your loved ones can't be trusted, then who else can you trust in this turbid world.What can I do as a child, and whether I can escape the big net of pursuit today.

The darkness pressed down like a mountain, making people breathless, Leng Yue didn't know where her path was, whether she could escape this catastrophe.Thinking of this, she looked up at the pitch-black sky, praying silently in her heart, father and mother, please protect your daughter and let her leave safely.

Leng Yue was thinking about the afternoon while walking. In the afternoon, she was taking a nap under the statue of the god in the ruined temple, when suddenly footsteps and voices came from outside.

"Hei San, you said we have searched most of Yangzhou City, why didn't we even see the shadow of that child?"

"Yes, Wang Wu, do you think the adults made a mistake? Could the little girl have been rescued or left Yangzhou City long ago?"

"It's possible, otherwise we dispatched so many people and couldn't find it."

Hearing the sound getting closer, Leng Yue was a little flustered and a little anxious, the ruined temple was empty around, there was really no place to hide, except where she was lying now.But you can see her as soon as you get close to this place, what should you do now, if you are found, you will definitely not be able to escape the murderous hands of those people.Because what they were looking for, they didn't have it at all.

What to do, what to do, now they are getting closer and closer, the sound of footsteps seems to be in the ears, Leng Yue raised her head in a panic and looked around her, to see if she could find a place to hide.

"Hei San, the walls of this ruined temple are empty, and it seems that there is no way to hide people." The voice called Wang Wu came, and Leng Yue could hear that they had already entered the ruined temple.
