Bird and Siyu Meet After 10 Years 8-2 The two monster leaders left, leaving only about ten little monsters to guard outside the woods. Some other flying monsters were hovering in the air to see from above. They were waiting to catch Bird if he ran out.
In the woods, Bird was walking on a small road. At first, the environment was quiet and peaceful. But when he entered the middle of the wood, he found the color of the gra.s.s became darker, and the leaves of the trees were bare of leaves. The black mist was thicker, and the air cold and freezing.
“Hey, do you know which way led to the grave?” Siyu asked Bird. The fog was so heavy that it made everything in the wood hard to discern. If they were heading in the wrong direction, even she had no way to escape.
“Who said I want to go to the grave? If my calculation is correct, after a while, we will pa.s.s the mora.s.s and go out of the wood.” Bird sped up as he spoke with her.
“The fog is so thick, I can’t even find my fingers. Did your teacher teach you how to know the direction in this kind of situation?” Siyu was trying her best to follow him. She could see something of the eight-year-old little boy on him.
They two were hurrying in the wood, when they heard a noise on the ground ahead. When they kept hearing the sound, the mist disappeared and they were out of the trees.
Bird took a long look at the mora.s.s, which was totally black with some bubbles floating up. Finally his eyes focused on some men who were wearing deep-green clothing, armed with different weapons. They were lined up beside the mora.s.s, discussing something.
“A thief wants to enter the grave! Are you leaving？Or, in fact, are you lying to me? It was your desires that led you here?” Siyu felt the irony and regretted that she had mistreated him as the little boy.
“The mora.s.s is inevitable, thus we need to go straight forward.” Bird’s movements were still restrained to about 100 meters under Siyu’s control, thus he didn’t turn back to take a look at her. He did not know that her eyes were white and unfocussed, unable to see any living things.
“Your target is the tomb, right? But you don’t even know how to use the spiritual fire; why not leave before humiliating yourself?” Siyu yelled at him.
Her voice was so loud that all the men around the mora.s.s heard her. Though the young man and girl looked weak, they did not take them as incapable people. Whoever entered this wood alive was competent.
“d.a.m.n it! Why can the woman enter this place?” A strong man took a bit of the meat from a little monster. He was their leader.
“Shall we . . . ?” One of his underlings gestured to him, indicating killing the two.
“Driving them out is enough,” the leader said.
“Got it.” The underling went for Bird and Siyu, and shouted to them, “The mora.s.s is controlled by us! If you don’t want to die here, leave!”
“What a poor explanation!” Siyu sighed and took back Bird, then raised her leg to give the guy a sweeping kick. This movement was as quick as a lightening, and the man was pushed, knocking into a big tree, where he fell to the ground by the great power of her kick. He sagged, losing consciousness.
“Shameful!” The leader ordered all his followers to fight her together.
Soon his followers understood the power of a Mind Master, and their ends were worse.
“The fire of Sparrow? You are from the Que Family?” The leader was shocked by the beautiful red light on her forehead. It was a fresh light of life and hope, different from the dead red light in Bird’s bag.
"The Que Family?”
Bird could not stop from turning his back; ten years had pa.s.sed since they were separated.
“Que Siyu? Is that you?” he asked.
