Last Totem Novel - Chapter 2
Chapter 2 Girl
The girl ran out of the grocery store and quickly looked around. The streets were full of pedestrians and stalls, and she ran towards the crowded place, wanting to escape from the dark house where she had been imprisoned for two days as soon as possible.
After running for a while, she suddenly realized that she had become the focus of everyone on the street. The pedestrians, the vendors, the vagrants, the people in blue canvas, and all sorts of people were watching her. Originally, in the city she lived in, her rate of return was quite high. Therefore, this was not the first time she had become the focus of everyone’s attention. However, the gazes of the people watching her were filled with admiration and friendliness, and the gazes of the people here looked at her as if they were hunters looking at their prey, their eyes shining with thirst.
Looking at the deformed and ugly faces, she felt very scared. She looked around in panic, not knowing where to escape.
“Woman! It’s a woman!” “What a beautiful woman!” “Where did you come from? It’s so white.” “She’s not from the town …” “Who is her master?” The people on the street stared at the girl, pointing and discussing.
At this time, she suddenly remembered the youth’s words, “As long as you walk out of this shop, you won’t be able to live for three hours.”
In the moment when she was absent-minded, the surrounding discussions grew louder and louder, and the crowd on the street began to move towards her …
She turned around and ran, wanting to return to the grocery store that sold her as a commodity. Compared to these frightening strangers, the rude youth was like a lamp in the dark. However, it was only then that she realized that the path of retreat had been blocked by the crowd!
“Women …” “Haha …” “Wow …” “Gulu …”
Those people opened their mouths wide and drooled with disgusting saliva as they stretched out their arms and slowly approached her. No matter which direction the girl fled to, there would always be people blocking her path.
Gradually, the crowd surrounded the girl in the middle, and the circle gradually shrunk …
“Go away! You guys go away!” Looking at the dirty hands getting closer and closer, the young girl screamed in despair. At this moment, a loud roar suddenly sounded from behind, “Get lost! Do you hear me? Get lost!” Immediately after, a painful howl came from the crowd.
“It’s Brother Xiong!” “Black Bear!” “Run!” As the voice rang out, the onlookers dispersed and rushed back to the two sides of the street.
Before the girl could breathe a sigh of relief, she saw five malicious-looking men walking towards her in the blink of an eye. Like a frightened deer, she hurriedly ran into a deserted alley.
She had no idea where the alley led to. The ground was dirty and cratered with stones and cement. The originally narrow road was still littered with all sorts of scraps, and some places could only barely squeeze through. Above his head were crisscrossed wires and wires. There were also worn and faded clothes that blocked out a lot of sunlight. The alley winded and twisted, and the houses on both sides were made of rusty iron sheets and wooden blocks. The dark cracks in the wall always made people worry about whether a terrifying dirty hand would suddenly stretch out.
Her heart was filled with despair. She did not know where to flee to, nor did she know who could save her, nor did she know what kind of terrifying fate awaited her. Girls who have never left their homes are like flowers in a greenhouse. They have no way to go to heaven or earth in this sea of sin.
At this moment, a sharp laugh suddenly sounded from behind her. She looked back in panic! There was nothing in the deep alley of Ka …
At the same time, a figure suddenly flashed across the corner. The girl had just turned her head when she could not dodge the collision head-on.
“Ah! It hurts!” She fell to the ground and felt a little dizzy.
“Little sister, where are you going?”
A rough voice came from above his head, and there was a trace of ridicule in his tone. The girl raised her head in fear and saw a sturdy man standing in front of her. The man was more than two meters tall, with a large, triangular face with a pulled beard. Green veins suddenly appeared on his muscular arms, and his half-naked chest was tattooed with a bear head with its big mouth open, revealing sharp teeth. Its sturdy legs were like tree stumps.
“I’m sorry, I’m sorry …” The girl apologized repeatedly.
“Haha” The man grinned, revealing his uneven yellow teeth, and then laughed.
The girl got up and ran backwards, but before she could take two steps, four figures suddenly appeared in the alley in front of her, blocking her path.
“Little sister, don’t run. Big brother will take you to play.” Four black, messy-haired men slowly approached her.
“Don’t … don’t come over.” The girl was blocked in front and back, so she could only desperately lean against the wall, as if she wanted to squeeze her body into the wall.
The men laughed even happier when they saw this. They weren’t in a hurry to rush forward, preparing to slowly enjoy the final struggle of their prey.
Just as the girl was about to collapse, a young voice came from the roof.
“Black Bear, this is my goods.”
The calm narration was like the sound of nature, instantly calming the girl’s terrified heart, allowing her to quickly calm down.
“Iron… Iron slag!” One of the shorter men stuttered.
The tall man known as Black Bear frowned and looked up. He saw Tie Zha standing on the roof with his chest crossed. He had an indifferent expression on his face. He shouted roughly, “Iron slag, aren’t you too domineering? You said it was yours, so it’s yours?”
Iron slag didn’t answer, only looking down the alley.
“According to the rules of Tieshan Town, first come, first served!” Another man echoed.
Tie Zha smiled and walked on the roof with his chest crossed. After a while, he muttered to himself, “Well, what you said makes sense.”
The black bear smiled and let out a “hehe hehe” laugh. “Tie Zha, we’ll stay after we finish eating” Before he could finish his words, Tie Zha suddenly jumped off the roof and slashed his head with his saber in both hands! Facing the sudden attack, the black bear could only cross its hands and block its head.
With the help of the falling force, the iron slag was slashed down with a single blade!
With a’clang ‘, the black bear howled with tears in its heart and lungs. His wrists were cut off at the same time, and blood spurted out.
As soon as Tie Zha landed, he took a small step back. Before the black bear could react, he thrust his saber back with both hands! With a’puchi ‘sound, the sharp knife pierced through his chest.
The black bear instinctively swung its arm and smashed towards the iron slag behind it. The iron slag kicked the black bear’s back and used its strength to pull out the straight machete, avoiding the black bear’s attack.
Seeing that he missed, the black bear howled crazily and crashed into him regardless of everything!
Facing the mountain-like black bear, Tie Zha actually didn’t dodge at all, instead directly crashing back!
“Boom!” A muffled sound rang out, and the two of them suddenly clashed together! Tie Zha, who was relatively short, had actually forcefully knocked away the tall black bear! He then stabbed his saber into his throat and twisted it forcefully, breaking the black bear’s neck. The headless corpse spat out a few meters of blood and slowly collapsed to the ground.
Tie Zha was sprayed with blood all over his body. He suddenly stepped on the black bear’s head and crushed his skull. In this world, only if the brain died would it be true death.
“You … don’t come over. If you dare to come over, we’ll kill her!” While Tie Zha was killing the black bear, the four men grabbed the girl and put their daggers on her neck.
Tie Zha grinned and narrowed his eyes at the four of them, asking, “Who am I?”
“You … you’re an iron slag.” One of them replied in a trembling voice. They witnessed with their own eyes the lightning methods used by the iron slag to kill people, and they were so frightened that their courage almost broke.
“Oh” Tie Zha said thoughtfully, “You know who I am, but you still want to steal my goods. It seems like you still don’t know me.”
“You … you … you let us go, and the goods will be returned to you.”
“Sure.”
Just as they were about to agree, they heard Iron Cinder’s indifferent voice resound again. “Two of you can live. Let’s do as we please.”
The four of them looked at each other in confusion. At this time, the person who used the dagger to press against the girl’s neck suddenly pushed the girl away and stabbed the dagger into her companion’s chest! Immediately after, another man pulled out his dagger and stabbed at the person beside him with a loud roar. They scuffled together and stabbed each other with daggers at close range!
In an instant, blood splashed everywhere! Wailing sounds echoed endlessly in the alley …
The girl fell to the ground and covered her eyes, not daring to look. This was the first time she had discovered that people could be so cruel to each other.
In the end, only one of the four men could barely stand up. Under the gesture of the iron slag, he covered his wounds and stumbled away.
When the man disappeared from sight, the iron slag twisted its neck and left on its own. The girl hurriedly chased after him and tightly grabbed onto the corner of his clothes. Perhaps it was because the girl was too close. Tie Zha felt uncomfortable all over her body. She forcefully pulled open the corner of her clothes and said indifferently, “As long as you follow behind me, no one will be interested in you.”
The young girl could only follow behind him, maintaining a distance of half a meter. After a while, the two of them walked out of the alley and walked on the streets. At this time, the girl realized that the people on the street were not even interested in looking at her. Thinking back, the youth in front of him had used an extremely vicious method to kill the two-meter tall strong man straightforwardly. Thinking of this, she trembled slightly, but she was also curious. Finally, she couldn’t help but ask him, “Why are they so afraid of you?”
Tie Zha coldly looked ahead and did not answer the girl’s question.
As a result, such an attitude aroused the girl’s even more exuberant curiosity. At this moment, she seemed to have forgotten how terrifying the youth was. She asked all sorts of questions, “How old are you?” “Who are you?” “Where are your parents?”
“Just one more word. I’ll sell you now.” The iron slag was so annoyed by her that it threatened her in a deep voice.
“There’s no good price here.” The girl reminded him heartlessly.
Tie Zha looked a little helpless and could only explain to her, “The town is in danger at any moment. Don’t distract me by talking. If there’s any problem, we’ll talk about it when we get back.”
For some reason, the young man’s helpless expression became intimate in the eyes of the young girl. She boldly stepped forward to hug his arm and said with a smile, “Alright.”
Sniffing the faint fragrance of the girl’s body, a palpitating elasticity came from her arm. He felt a stiffness all over his body, and a strange feeling surged into his heart. He could only repeatedly tell himself that she was just a commodity, and that she would be able to sell for a good price once she arrived in Sand City. She must be someone from a certain Silver City. As long as she finds the right customer, she will be able to exchange for a pile of sparkling gold coins …
The winter in Tieshan Town was approaching, and he needed a sum of money for the winter. In addition, his good friend Divine Doctor Shui once said that as long as he could get a’small nuclear furnace ‘, he could upgrade his most important companion, the jet locomotive Red Comet.
