Chapter 1103: An old acquaintance
Translator: 549690339
Just three minutes before Jiang Xiao and the others entered the fortress of trees ...
In a residential building in qiangui, Liushui, fortress of trees.
Xin AI ‘an hugged the little Treant, curled up on the single bed, and fell asleep in a daze.
Her face was full of fatigue, and she didn’t seem to have a good sleep.
She would occasionally frown, and her body would suddenly Twitch from time to time, as if she would wake up at any time.
Suddenly, a series of knocks came from the door of the house.
In the living room, a couple in their fifties had a worried look on their faces. They were chatting quietly when they heard the knock on the door. The couple’s expressions changed.
The man quickly got up and walked to the door. Through the peephole, he saw a group of people surrounding his door.
The man was annoyed and angry. He opened the door and lowered his voice.”Why did you knock? My child is sleeping, be gentle! Gentle!”
Outside the door, the group of people who kept knocking on the door had different expressions. Some of them looked apologetic, while some of them were indifferent. They said righteously,””Where’s Xin AI ‘an? Let her get up and go outside the fortress of trees to take a look. There are more creatures coming!”
Hearing this, Xin AI ‘an’s father, Xin maosong, lowered his voice and hurriedly asked,””Did some creature break into our fortress of trees?”
“Uh ...” The group of people outside the door were clearly stuck. One of the men saw that no one was speaking, so he hid behind the crowd and suddenly said,”he didn’t come in, but you have to let Xin AI ‘an take a look. The fortress of trees over there is burning again. What if those star beasts rush in?”
Upon hearing this, his father, Nozumi maosong, didn’t say anything, but his mother, an Jihong, was unhappy.
An Jihong quickly stepped forward and pushed Xin maosong away. He pointed at the group of people outside and said anxiously,””My daughter has been watching over you for two days and two nights. She’s so tired! He had just returned! What are you guys doing? Aren’t there guardians there? What are you guys trying to do? Do you want her to die of exhaustion?”
Jihong, you’re wrong.” In the crowd, a middle-aged woman spoke. It seemed that this woman had some friends.h.i.+p with Xin AIAN’s mother.
“There are signs of fire on the northeast wall of the fortress of trees,” the middle-aged woman said.”It’s obvious that the iron tree fire demons are attacking from the outside. What time is it?” Still sleeping?
Yes, I know that your family’s Xiao Xin is tired, but there are so many people in the fortress of trees, and their safety is all in your family’s daughter’s hands. How can she still have the mood to sleep?
It’s best if she’s fine. If she’s in trouble, she can be of use!”
“Yes, yes! Quickly get Xin AI ‘an to get up and go over there to take a look!”
“It’s best if she’s fine, but what if something happened?” Outside the door, everyone was talking at once, their voices getting louder and louder.
The middle-aged woman continued,”she’s just a Star Warrior in the Galaxy stage. She has been trained by the country since she was young and has enjoyed so many benefits. It’s all to protect us ordinary people. How can she sleep at such a critical moment?”
If I were a Star Warrior, I wouldn’t have come to your house to beg you! I don’t need other people’s body size, I’ll just live on the other side of the tree wall!”
An Jihong’s face was red with anger. He pointed at the middle-aged woman with a trembling hand and couldn’t form a complete sentence for a long time.”Yu Min, you ... ‘You ...’ You ...”
n.o.b.u.mamatsu lowered his palm repeatedly and pleaded,””Lower your voice, lower it! Don’t be noisy!”
“Dad, mom ...” A girl’s voice suddenly came from behind the door.
In an instant, the noisy corridor fell silent.
His father, n.o.b.u.mamatsu, and his mother, an Jihong, also turned their heads to look at him. Their faces were filled with guilt as they said,””Anan, why are you up? Did I disturb your rest? go back to your room and sleep ...”
The middle-aged woman named Yu Min stepped into the room and said,””You’re finally awake. It’s good that you’re awake!”
As she spoke, Yu Min looked at Xin AI ‘an, who was wearing pajamas and holding a little Treant in her arms. She said,””Anan, I’m sorry. We have no choice. We’re worried, so we came here to disturb your rest. You should go to the northeast tree wall and take a look. It should have an iron tree fire demon as its name.”
Xin AI ‘an’s expression tightened,”the iron tree fire demon has entered?” The tree wall was burnt down?”
“Uh ...” Yu Min’s expression froze at the question. She mumbled,”I think so. Go and take a look. If those fire trees rush in, we’ll be finished.”
Xin AI ‘an furrowed her brows slightly. She clearly saw something and said,””Aunty Yu, the team guarding the tree wall didn’t ask for my help. It should be fine. There are three groups of soldiers guarding the tree wall, so don’t worry.”
“AI! This child! Why are you so disobedient?” Yu Min said anxiously,”you’re still thinking of sleeping at a time like this? What if they didn’t have the time to ask for help? You’re the strongest and the only Galaxy martial artist. You have to be responsible and responsible, you have to ...”
s.h.i.+nmaos.h.i.+ pushed Yu Min out of the room with one hand. His daughter was woken up by the noise, but he didn’t care about anything else. He started to curse,””This fortress of trees was built by my daughter! She protected all of you. How can she be so irresponsible?”
“Dad, don’t be angry, dad!” Xin AI ‘an saw that something was wrong and hurriedly went forward to grab her father. It could be seen that her daughter had been slandered. As a father, he was really furious.
Outside the door, Yu Min, who had been pushed out, also shouted, opposing s.h.i.+nmaosong. However, s.h.i.+nmaosong’s words made the people in the corridor quiet down a lot, and their faces were filled with guilt.
This fortress of trees had indeed been built by Xin AIAN. The 600 or so ordinary people in the fortress of trees had been saved by Xin AIAN, her companions, and a few teams of soldiers.
If she hadn’t made a prompt decision to cover half of the street with a fortress of trees, the consequences would have been unimaginable.
“Dad, don’t be angry. I’ll just go and take a look.” Xin AI ‘an helplessly advised them and said to the people outside,”all of you can leave. Don’t stand around my door. I’ll go now.”
“No need to go!” n.o.b.u.mamatsu said angrily,”we’ve been on guard for two days and two nights. We’re all in fear and didn’t even have time to rest. Star Warriors are also human! You don’t need to go if no one comes to ask for help!”
This sentence obviously angered the crowd.
“What do you mean you don’t need to go if you don’t ask for help? Aren’t we here to ask for help?”
“Your daughter’s life is important, but the lives of hundreds of people in the fortress of trees are not important?”
“Just let Xin AI ‘an go and take a look. It won’t take up much of her time. She already said she’s going, so what are you saying?”
Xin AI ‘an dragged her father, who was fuming with anger, into the house. She then gestured to the little Treant at the side, indicating the direction of the door.
The 30-cm little guy bounced up and stretched its little branch hand. It wrapped around the group of people outside the door and pushed them out of the corridor towards the unit’s Gate.
“Mom, please comfort dad. He should be fine. I’ll be back soon.” As Xin AI ‘an spoke, she didn’t even bother to change her clothes. She reached out and pulled a coat from the hanger at the door, put it on, and walked out.
In the corridor, Xin AI ‘an was still a little worried. She summoned two more little treants and placed them at the door before closing the anti-theft door.
In the corridor, when the crowd saw Xin AI ‘an rush out, their expressions became much better, and they began to talk at once.
“I didn’t want to disturb you. I just don’t feel at ease.”
“Human lives are the most important ...”
“Be obedient and don’t be too selfish ...”
Xin AI ‘an’s expression was embarra.s.sed, and she nodded perfunctorily. She pushed everyone out of the unit door, and just as she stepped out, she casually threw the door.
Four vine-like flexible long whips appeared and directly supported her body. Under the continuous movement and support of the four Vines, Xin AI ‘an quickly moved northeast.
In less than half a minute, Xin AI ‘an, who was rapidly climbing up, saw the tree wall in the northeast.
There was indeed something going on here. Two groups of soldiers from The Guardian Army and a few children in the Nebula stage, a total of more than ten people, were gathered here.
Outside the tree wall, there were also knocking sounds from time to time.
One of the soldiers reached out his hand and created a stream of water to smear on the thick tree wall, as if to ensure that the tree wall would not burn.
“Little Xin? What are you doing here?” When a guard saw Xin AI ‘an’s appearance, he was slightly stunned and said,”aren’t you only going in the morning? Why aren’t you resting?”
Xin AI ‘an felt aggrieved, but she forced herself to hold on and did not show it on her face.
Although these guards were all in the Galaxy stage, and she was in the Galaxy stage, Xin AI ‘an, who had been friendly all her life, was unwilling to say things like “I was worried, so I came to take a look.”
Such words were obviously a negative criticism of the soldiers ‘abilities, and it would hurt their hearts.
For a moment, Xin AI ‘an did not know what to say.
The other soldier seemed to have realized something and said tactfully,””We need to strictly follow the rotation system so that we can better guard this place. Madam Xin, I know you’re worried, but you should go back and rest.”
At that moment, a strange sound came from the fortress of trees!
“Chi ....
The voice was extremely mysterious and ethereal. It was faint, as if it came from the sky.
Everyone was shocked. What was that sound?
How come I’ve never heard of it?
Was there any creature in Guizhou land that could make such a sound?
It sounded like they were coming from the southwest corner of the fortress of trees ...
“Guys, look! Quickly look!” A high school student in the Nebula stage pointed at the sky and shouted.
He didn’t need to determine the location of the sound because a huge whale was floating in the sky above the southwest suburbs.
Everyone was dumbfounded. This was a shock that came from the depths of their hearts. This whale’s cry seemed to be able to shock their souls ...
In the next moment, the giant whale appeared directly above the soldiers with a flas.h.!.+
Everyone’s expression changed as they looked at the huge object that covered the sky and earth. They discovered three figures floating down.
“Pi ... Skin ... Skin ... G.o.d Pi?”
“Two G.o.d-like skins!?” The few high school awakened watched the three of them land with their mouths agape.
The two groups of soldiers were also shocked. One of the captains reacted quickly and suddenly said,””Attention!”
The eight guardians stood at attention and watched as Jiang Xiao, the blind girl, and Jiang Gong landed on the ground.
There were still some benefits to being on two world Cup trips.
Who in the world doesn’t know you!
To everyone in society, Jiang Xiao was The Jinx of China and the world champion.
To the soldiers, Jiang Xiao was the governor of the border and a high-ranking general of the tail feather Regiment.
“Xiaopi?” Xin AI ‘an blinked in disbelief and watched Jiang Xiao land.
Jiang Xiao was also extremely happy because he never thought that he would actually meet Xin AI ‘an here!
After not seeing her for so many years, her hair had grown quite a bit. He could tell that she was very tired, probably very tired.
Jiang Xiao finally knew which Star Warrior was protecting them!
It was definitely Xin AI ‘an!
One must know that those who could represent China in the world Cup were all absolutely strong. They were all Masters who could defend a side!
Jiang Xiao smiled and nodded.”Long time no see, Xin AI ‘an.”
“Xiaopi ...” Xin AI ‘an mumbled softly and stepped forward. For some reason, she suddenly pounced into Jiang Xiao’s arms and wrapped her arms around his straw raincoat tightly.
Jiang Xiao was dumbfounded.
I’m wearing a straw rain cape! Don’t you think it’s p.r.i.c.kly?
“Oh ...” The huge force made Jiang Xiao take a step back and he was at a loss for what to do.
The relations.h.i.+p between the two of them was definitely not close to this extent.
Even at the World Cup, when the two were teammates, they were just fellow travelers who worked hard for the same goal.
Back then, the captain of Maple Leaf had trampled on Xin AI ‘an, but Jiang Xiao retaliated in the following compet.i.tion.
At that time, Xin AIAN sent a text message of thanks with some expectations, hoping that Jiang Xiao wouldn’t be so terrifying and scary. She hoped that he could continue to be happy and cheeky and become the source of happiness for everyone in the tough and struggling years.
Since then, the two of them had no more contact.
It was said that after she graduated, she did not join any Army, nor did she engage in anything related to Star Warriors. She seemed to have opened a flower shop with the help of her parents.
It was fine at the beginning, but with the arrival of the “doomsday” in recent years, her flower shop’s business should not be very good.
There was a well-written poem,
The Green Mountain was the same as the clouds and rain, but the bright moon was not a separate village.
Having fought together in the world Cup, fighting for the team, and for their ideals, it was enough to have these precious experiences and memories.
There were some people who didn’t need to hope for a reunion.
These people would not become pa.s.sers-by in life, because those figures would accompany that period of time, live in your memory, and accompany you to the end of your life.
In fact, Xin AI ‘an was also surprised by her reaction.
But at this moment, she was indeed doing so.
For some reason, the moment she saw Jiang Xiao, all the grievances that she had been suppressing and had nowhere to vent were all released.
Jiang Xiao was indeed a former teammate of the national team. More importantly, he was also a Star Warrior, a Star Warrior who far exceeded her abilities.
For a moment, Xin AI ‘an suddenly felt the burden on her shoulders lighten.
Her eyes were red, and her extremely tired face was filled with endless grievances. She actually began to sob softly.
In ordinary society, her parents had sheltered her from the wind and rain, but in the current apocalyptic situation, they had become her family who relied on her to survive.
There were more than 600 people in the fortress of trees, all looking at her, seeking her protection.
Even though there were two teams of guardians, one team of the victors Legion, and some high school awakened students, it seemed that they could not make her relax.
From saving the people to building the fortress of trees, she had to do it herself. For more than a month, she was exhausted and mentally exhausted.
The moment she saw Jiang Xiao, she suddenly felt like she had been strung taut.
Xin AI ‘an sobbed softly and choked. Her voice was very soft, so soft that it made one’s heart ache.”I just want to ... I’ll sleep for a while. Just sleep for a while, just a while ...”
Jiang Xiao was a little bewildered and took a while to react. He then carefully put down his arm and gently patted her back before saying softly,””Go to sleep, now ... I promise that no one will dare to disturb you. If anyone dares to wake you up, I’ll milk him to death, okay?”
However, such words did not make her smile.
Xin AI ‘an’s head was nestled in Jiang Xiao’s arms and she kept sobbing. Tears fell like rain as she nodded continuously.”Yes, yes ...”
