The mid-air of Black City was densely covered with pipelines and tracks, crisscrossing and coiling. Even the soldiers of the Army rarely dared to fly at such a high speed.
As long as there was a mistake in operation, it would be over if they hit anything.
Li Xiang controlled the remaining gas tank while observing the surrounding environment. In order not to be seen by the military, he tried his best to fly between the gaps of the pipelines. Even if there were people in the skyscraper next to him, they could only let out a cry of surprise as they watched his back disappear into the distance, unable to react.
He cautiously flew around Black City several times, and after confirming that he was not followed and discovered, he flew in the direction of the Black Market.
Fortunately, the underground world was chaotic. Even if they were carrying a wounded person, it didn't look special. The rest of the people just occasionally glanced at them and no longer looked at them.
Li Xiang took them through the underground passage skillfully and soon came to the Black Street. This was really a desperate move. He never dreamed that the people of the Army would suddenly attack him.
The Army, the snipers, and the Black Hawk. He knew that there were three different forces that wanted to attack him! This kind of mission was only C-level? He even suspected that there was a certain deviation in the mission. After all, these three parties didn't know each other. The major of the Army was obviously coming for him, not him, and the soldiers of the Army were not hostile.
There was also the man in the trench coat. He ignored Dong Ling Lan and her husband and chased after him.
"Old Ghost, Old Ghost, open the door!" Li Xiang couldn't care so much. Lu Hai next to him was pale. Even if Dong Ling Lan had been helping him press the wound on his thigh, the blood was still flowing out. If it went on like this, he would die if he wasn't treated.
He hammered the door several times, and after a long time, the door opened with a creak.
"Who is it? It's early in the morning and you still let people in …" Old Ghost poked his head out, looking impatient. When he saw Li Xiang, he suddenly put away his lazy appearance and opened the door halfway, "Come in!"
The shop was still filled with the smell of metal. After welcoming them in, Old Ghost quickly locked the door and helped Li Xiang to sit down.
"You are really a madman. Do you want to die?" Old Ghost helped him unbutton his shirt. At this time, Li Xiang's skin began to form a thin layer of frost.
Cold air gushed out from his injured abdomen, and it was still increasing. He didn't pay much attention to it when he was flying, but now that he had calmed down, the muscles in his lower abdomen began to spasm and twitch. It was as cold as ice.
"He, he … Lu Hai, save him first." Li Xiang panted heavily. Now, all the air that came out of his mouth was cold air. He pointed at the dying Lu Hai and slowly grasped Old Ghost's withered arm.
"Save him? Are you crazy? Do you know what kind of injury you have? " Old Ghost pressed his hand on his lower abdomen. He could barely feel the texture of his skin. "I really have to hand it to you. You still have the mind to care about others. Okay, okay, I got it."
He pulled his hand out of Li Xiang's grasp and walked over to check on Li Xiang's injuries. Lu Hai's thigh was hit by the bullet, and blood gushed out of a terrifying hole. With this injury, his leg was definitely crippled.
Old Ghost squatted down and fiddled with it for a while, then shook his head.
"There's no saving him. The artery in his thigh was directly shattered. If he wasn't hanging on by a thread, he would have died halfway." Old Ghost got up and went back to check on Li Xiang's injuries. Hearing his words, everyone's expression darkened.
Dong Ling Lan held back her tears. She held Lu Yu and helped her husband press on the wound. She didn't know what to do.
"Ah Hai, I, I …" She looked at her husband, sobbing, and stopped talking.
"No, don't!" Lu Hai struggled to get up. He grabbed his wife's arm and shook his head. Now that he was seriously injured, he was no longer weak and frail. He looked into his wife's eyes with determination. The two of them looked at each other. After receiving confirmation, he sighed in relief and turned to look at his daughter, who was also crying.
"Come, Little Yu, let daddy hug you."
Lu Yu obediently threw herself into his arms. The family of three hugged each other and enjoyed the last moments of peace.
On the other side, Old Ghost had already taken out a medical kit to treat Li Xiang's wound. He scraped away the layer of ice and a faint fist print appeared.
"Hiss …"
"You can still feel pain?" Old Ghost angrily patted his wound and said coldly, "Do you know what this is? Magic Apprentice's strengthening magic. Forget it, you won't understand even if I tell you. Why provoke a Magic Apprentice if he's easy to provoke? "
"It's people from the military." Li Xiang smiled bitterly. From the corner of his eye, he saw Dong Ling Lan and her family. The anger in his heart slowly rose.
"Bang!"
He slammed his fist on the metal table. The entire metal table let out an unpleasant groan. Old Ghost didn't care and continued to treat his wound.
"Tell me." Hearing that it was the military, Old Ghost's face also showed a trace of seriousness.
He hesitated for a moment, but in the end, he still told her everything that had happened.
When he heard about the sniper, Old Ghost made a sound of surprise. Then, when he heard that the major of the military was personally targeting him, his face turned ugly.
"Major of the military? You're really lucky, Li Xiang. Did you know that the major of the military is usually a Level 3 Magic Apprentice? The one you encountered is probably a Level 1 or 2 Magic Apprentice. Otherwise, you wouldn't even know how you died! " Old Ghost heavily patted his treated wound and said coldly, "The northern military, you little lunatic haven't even been to the north. How did you provoke the people there? If he really is a major, but only has this much strength, it's very likely that he's a civilian officer beside a big shot! In other words, you may have provoked a big shot in the northern military! "
Li Xiang's face slowly changed.
"Big shot in the northern military … Could it be that guy?" Li Xiang didn't consider this possibility before, but combined with Old Ghost's words, maybe it really was the Kuang Tie's doing.
His adoptive father was a general in the northern military called "Owl."
After he mentioned this possibility with a darkened face, Old Ghost suddenly fell silent.
Li Xiang watched as Old Ghost tossed the Mist first aid kit to Dong Ling, then went into the inner room to fiddle with it for a while. When he came out, he was holding a big bundle and an iron box.
Inside the iron box was the first gun he made himself, the Black Serpent.
"What?" Li Xiang stood up with the support of the table. The cold air was still running rampant in his body. He didn't know what ointment Old Ghost had applied on him, but the cold air had already faded from the injured area. His muscles could move, but it was still inconvenient.
"There's enough Blue Star Coins and a change of clothes in this bundle. There's also a letter in it. Take it to City 0982 and find the person mentioned in the letter. He'll arrange everything for you." Old Ghost's face was solemn. "Either you don't care about anything and get the hell out of here, or you take the gun and get the hell out of here."
Li Xiang's face changed again. He had been with Old Ghost for so long, but this was the first time he had seen him like this. This meant that he might have really gotten into big trouble.
So big that Old Ghost had to arrange a way out for him.
"You bastard! Do you know who Xiao is? Do you know? He's a madman. You provoked this old madman, and you still want to take revenge? If you don't have the strength of a player, don't even think about it! Hurry up and take this bundle to the Great Northwest. You might still be able to keep your life. "Old Ghost's chest rose and fell violently. After a few dry coughs, he shoved the bundle back into his hands.
Li Xiang hesitated for a moment. He reached out to take the iron box, but Old Ghost slapped him hard in the hand.
"You little bastard, don't you understand? You still want to take the gun? Ask this girl from the Dong Ling family. Does Xiao, Xiao know? "Old Ghost was a little flustered and exasperated. He looked at Dong Ling Lan.
After hearing their conversation, Dong Ling Lan's face had already turned pale. The famous General Shogun. Anyone who had been to the North would know who he was.
"Brother, Li Xiang, you can go by yourself. The mission is canceled." Dong Ling Lan bit her lip and suddenly looked up at him.
Li Xiang was stunned. He held the bundle in his hand and suddenly felt like it was going to explode.
Escape?
Escape again?
In his previous life, he had escaped enough. In order to avoid this and that, he fled everywhere. After the college entrance examination, he avoided Fei Yujing. After joining the tarot card company, he avoided all kinds of people who were searching for him. He lived a life of eating and sleeping in the open. He didn't even dare to take a step into the hospital where his sister was.
In a new life, he had to live like this again?
"Is it that serious?" Li Xiang gritted his teeth and asked word by word. His voice was cold.
Old Ghost nodded heavily.
"The other party came from the North to mess with you. It means that they hate you. After leaving the Polar night, you will face endless pursuit. Can you bear it? "
Li Xiang clenched his fists and looked at Dong Ling Lan's family. He suddenly smiled.
Just because of the conflict with the Kuang Tie, his mission was canceled? In the face of such a tyrannical method, he could only avoid it?
Lu Yu blinked and looked at him. Her little hand grabbed her mother's clothes. She was confused, but she seemed to understand something.
If he left now, it would be the end of their family.
But if he didn't leave, he would have to face the pursuit of three forces. His chances of survival were slim.
Li Xiang looked at Dong Ling Lan's family, then looked at himself and Old Ghost. He let out a long breath, pushed the bundle away, and took the metal box into his arms.
"You, you little brat, I knew you would be stubborn." Old Ghost didn't get angry. Instead, he laughed, as if he had expected him to do this. He took out a small, delicate box and stuffed it into his hand. "Since you've decided, I don't care anymore. Take this. It should be useful."
"Thank you." Li Xiang nodded and opened the box. Inside lay two silver bullets with complicated inscriptions. The inscriptions were even more solid than Liquefied Origin Substances.
Upon closer inspection, the two silver bullets were engraved with a symbol that looked like a scepter. It felt very tactile in his hand.
"Ahem, I didn't see you guys today, and I didn't give you anything. Get out of here, you little brat." Old Ghost laughed, then glanced at the heavily injured Lu Hai. He suddenly grabbed Li Xiang's arm and whispered into his ear, "If you want to live, give up on him."
"I know what to do." Li Xiang tossed the two silver bullets into the air. The bullets flew in two inverted U-shaped trajectories before landing back in his hand.
After packing up, Li Xiang walked over to Dong Ling Lan's family. The gas tanks had been refilled, but flying with the three of them was too conspicuous. He could only leave the black market first.
He helped carry Lu Hai. Dong Ling Lan wiped away her tears, picked up Lu Yu, bowed deeply to Old Ghost, and walked out the door with Li Xiang.
Old Ghost rubbed the bundle that Li Xiang had pushed back and whispered, "Come back alive, you little brat."
