Chapter 128 - Fire Beacon Smoke (1)
The wind was very strong that night, so the sound of the wind covered up the sound of everyone's footsteps. When they went out, it was already 10 o'clock in the evening, but due to the fact that the locals had gone to sleep early, every household had already turned off their lights and had fallen into silence.
Little Ming's father held an iron rod as he slowly approached the three glowing areas. When everyone approached, he accidentally discovered that there were three people. All of them were Monk s.
When they saw the Monk, their first impression was that they were people from the Buddhism's Cloud Mountain and they treated the disciples of the Buddhism fairly well. At that time, they put down their guard and Little Ming's father took the lead as he walked over.
Little Ming didn't dare to get too close and could see them chatting. The sound of the wind was too loud, so he couldn't hear anything clearly. From afar, the three of them split up after chatting for a bit.
At that time, nothing much happened, but when Xiao Ming's parents were walking back, two of the Monk s immediately took out a machete and swung it at Xiao Ming's parents. When mother looked back, his father was already dead, so he turned around and prepared to fight for his life, but when mother saw Xiao Ming hiding in the corner, he turned around and directly carried Xiao Ming and ran back, shouting as he ran.
However, when his father died, he had a hunting rifle by his side. When Little Ming's father left the house, although he carried a hunting rifle, he did not casually shoot people, so he only used it for self-defense. He never would have thought that when Little Ming's father died, one of the Monk picked up his father's hunting rifle.
Monk didn't seem to be good at shooting and didn't even know how to aim. But after continuously attacking Little Ming, one of the shots hit his body, causing her to fly into the air.
Little Ming couldn't forget this moment. Seeing his own mother's body flying in the air, mother's eyes staring straight at him, mother's lips unceasingly trembled, as if the last two words Little Ming said to him was to quickly run.
At that time, Xiao Ming disregarded everything and ran away without turning his head back. Xiao Ming wanted to go and ask for help, but the scene was not optimistic, pasture was different from the rural areas and cities, there were only about ten or so households in total, all of them were quite far away, some were even at a distance of 200 meters, some even more than 300 meters. Thus, Xiao Ming knew that no matter how fast he was, he would not be able to catch up to the hunting rifle behind him.
Fortunately, there was something faster than a hunting rifle in this world. That was the sound. The speed at which sound travelled was always faster than the movement of objects.
Therefore, when Xiao Ming felt that there was no other way around it, he immediately ran to the top of a clock tower on the farm. That clock tower had been established over 90 years ago, during the war, and at that time, this pasture was just a military camp. There was an ancient clock on the clock tower, and once an enemy attacked, the bell would sound as an alarm.
Although many years had passed since the war, and the barracks that had been stationed here before had already disappeared, this ancient clock tower was still being used. The people of pasture said that in the future, if there was any disaster, no matter if it was floods or typhoons, they would have to ring this ancient clock tower to let everyone prepare for defense.
However, this pasture was immediately peaceful and peaceful. The bell tower had never rung, and Little Ming was the first person in the world to ring the bell tower in times of peace.
His voice immediately spread to every nook and cranny in the village, and in the blink of an eye, the silent village immediately turned into a myriad of lights. When the three Monk s saw that the Villagers s had woken up, they immediately stopped their pursuit of Little Ming and turned around to find a path, hoping to safely escape from this pasture.
After Xiao Ming's parents were hurt, Xiao Ming did not want to be unable to even see the appearance of the criminals. At this time, Xiao Ming had made the bold decision that even if he could not catch the criminals, he would at least be able to see their appearance. As the saying goes, it is not too late for a gentleman to take revenge, and Xiao Ming believes that he will definitely imprint the appearance of the criminals deeply in his mind.
