Who Can You Save? 634: Chapter 47: Who Would You Save?

Who Do You Want to Save?

Who Can You Save? “Captain, it’s fully sealed off!

The helicopter is in position!” “Remember, the primary goal is to ensure the hostage’s safety!

Also, the suspect is extremely dangerous, he has a gun!

Once spotted, as long as the hostage’s safety is ensured, shoot to kill immediately!” “Comrade!

Comrade!

You must save my child!

I’m begging you!!” The woman pleaded on her knees. “Madam, please don’t do this!

We will definitely save them!”

The man quickly helped the woman up, hurriedly trying to comfort her…

At this moment, a loud bang suddenly resounded in the mountains.

The captain’s face changed slightly, “Gunshot… from over there?” …

The gunshots could echo, but the screams couldn’t carry that far…

Da Zhe painfully clutched his left shoulder, undoubtedly hit by a bullet.

In the chaotic forest, Xiao Hu, with bloodshot eyes, clutched the child in one hand, the hand that just fired the gun trembling, yet he didn’t lower it, “I said!

Don’t push me!!” “Xiao Hu!

You’ve gone mad!

It’s Brother Zhe!

You really shot!!

Put down the gun!

Put it down!!” “I have no choice!!

Don’t push me!!!

You guys leave!!

Go!!!”

The young Da Zhe gritted his teeth, cold sweat dripping as he grabbed the arm of Dragon beside him to stand up with difficulty, “Xiao Hu… stop playing, come back with me, your wife is still at the hospital waiting for you, she’s about to give birth, remember… come, go back, stop playing…” “Brother Zhe, I…

I…” Xiao Hu retreated step by step.

Da Zhe and his group slowly approached.

Just then, the rumbling sound came, above they could already see a helicopter approaching, someone on it using a loudspeaker shouted, “Drop your weapon, release the hostage, you can’t escape!

I repeat, drop your weapon, release…” “Xiao Hu… stop messing around.” Da Zhe continued to approach, his brothers also gradually closing in.

The child, terrified, tearfully pale-faced.

Xiao Hu glanced at the large bag behind him… inside was the three million ransom.

But facing the approaching helicopter and the police at the foot of the mountain… the brothers he had known for years, he suddenly fired several shots into the ground. “Ah!!!

Don’t come any closer!!!!

If you do, I’ll shoot you!!!

Or…

I’ll, I’ll shoot him dead!!”

The pistol pressed against the child’s head again, Xiao Hu stepped back… escaping.

Blood gushed from Da Zhe’s arm, the people around tore their clothes to bandage his shoulder directly, Dragon said in horror, “Brother Zhe, we can’t handle this… let’s hide before the police find us!” “No…

I should watch you send the person back, it’s my fault…” Da Zhe pushed Dragon away, “It’s my fault…

I’ll make up for it…

I can’t watch Xiao Hu make any more mistakes.

You don’t have to follow me… find a way down the mountain…” “No way!

If you’re not leaving, neither are we!

We swore on burning yellow paper and chopping a chicken’s head!

Share blessings, share hardships!!” … …

It seemed so glorious back then… those days of high spirits.

In the underworld, swift justice and retribution.

Da Zhe silently sat in the office chair, no matter how hard he tried, he couldn’t leave…

The two policemen lying on the ground showed no signs of waking up.

Da Zhe quietly looked at a photo on his wallet—wallet and some personal items were found here.

The two policemen had left them here, seemingly too late to deal with them.

His wife, child, and him… this was a family photo taken in his child’s first month.

Da Zhe’s gaze blurred a bit, gently caressing this memory.

A line from a movie, years ago, suddenly floated in Da Zhe’s mind: In this world, you eventually repay what you take.

Every person in the underworld, eventually savoring this line, should taste the truth that it’s more than just a line from a movie, right? “As always, I run Wan Chai, I have it all… blades and swords… let me charge…”

Singing the lyrics of Da Tou’s all-time favorite song, a tear slowly fell from Da Zhe’s eye.

The two policemen lying on the ground suddenly pressed up with their hands.

Their bodies appeared stiff, their movements rigid, with their bones cracking as they finally stood crookedly.

Da Zhe quietly watched, suddenly not feeling as scared.

He smiled meaninglessly, casually took a cigarette from the pack on the table, lit it for himself… outside this room, silhouettes slowly approached.

Some in uniforms, some in suits, some in prison clothes, an uncle, a young man, even an aunt sweeping the floor… and the mess hall chef, holding a whistle while cooking.

They crowded both ends of the corridor, approaching this small doorway.

Everyone here whispered a single name.

Disorganized, yet unbroken.

Wei Dazhe…

Wei Dazhe…

Wei Dazhe…

Wei Dazhe…

Da Zhe… “No need to call anymore.” Da Zhe shook his head, “I’m not going anywhere, I’ll be right here…

This life is returned to you.”

He stubbed out the cigarette, stood up, then opened his arms and closed his eyes, “Come on…

I’ve returned this life to you.

From now on, don’t cause anyone else trouble.” “Wei Dazhe!!!

Return my life!!”

A figure, with a voice sharp and filled with hatred, broke through the crowd, holding a knife, directly stabbing into Da Zhe’s abdomen.

Da Zhe’s face contorted, eyes wide, but he didn’t make a sound, holding back.

The room seemed to infinitely expand, the small office before him horizontally and vertically shifting crazily, becoming vast and boundless.

In this vast place, all that should exist vanished, turning gray.

The floor became a surface filled with black water, while the ceiling turned into densely packed clouds.

Around were entwining dark green peaks.

The dark green mist filled the surroundings, a surge of heads before him… those under control, completely surrounding Da Zhe.

They turned into devil-like forms, biting his arms, biting his body, seemingly trying to completely devour him. “Come to me here!!

Cold!!

Terrifying!!

Beneath this water!!”

Suddenly a mournful cry—a blend of countless voices, a symphony of collective wails!

From the black water surface arose a small figure—a naked child’s form, “Join me here…”

Its body entangled in chaotic black arms, some arms holding its body from behind, some twistedly wrapping its arms and legs.

Some arms emerged from behind, covering its eyes…

These arms stretched endlessly from beneath the black water. “Alright…

I’ll join you…” Despite the frenzied biting, Da Zhe spoke calmly, “I’ll join you…”

It suddenly let out a piercing scream, the people biting him fell one by one!

The arms behind it extended wildly, lifting Da Zhe’s wounded body high… dragging him over.

Lifting him, facing it face to face… starting to slowly sink into the black water. “Uncle, run!

Run!!”

Da Zhe instinctively raised his head… only to see the child trapped by arms crying out sorrowfully, “Uncle, run…” “You are…” “Run… run… they, they…

I can’t control them… run… they… fast…” The child’s mouth suddenly split open, “Wei Dazhe!!

Wei Dazhe!!!

Come join me… join me…”

The black arms now even more frantically extended from the water surface, each one more wrapping around the child, and also reaching wildly for Da Zhe.

But as these arms touched Da Zhe’s back, they suddenly recoiled painfully as if they touched a flame!

It was the Taoist inscriptions Master Jin had written on his back…

Da Zhe hadn’t washed them off yet… they still held some residual power! “Wei Dazhe!!!!”

But this instead roused its… their ferocity!

Da Zhe gave a sudden shudder, tore off his shirt, the inscriptions on his back emitting a faint golden light, instantly driving away the twisting black arm shadows clutching him. “Let him go!!!”

Da Zhe roared angrily, reaching to pry open the arm covering its eyes, pulling apart the arms wrapping around it, exerting his strength to pull it out from them! “Let him go!!

Let him go!!

Let him go!!!” “Uncle…” “It’s alright, this time…

I will definitely save you!

I promise!!”

The black water surface now boils frantically.

A horrifying and invisible face looms underneath the turbulent water, opening its gigantic mouth, “He’s mine!!

He’s mine!!

Come join me… join me…”

Da Zhe tightly embraces the child in front of him, yet his body steadily sinks below the water surface…

The Taoist text on his back suddenly bursts with brilliant golden light, shooting straight into the sky…

This terrifying space is instantly opened up a gap! “Da Zhe!

Can you hear me?!

Da Zhe!!”

Master Jin’s voice!

Da Zhe suddenly looks towards the gap! “Da Zhe!

The situation is critical!

Listen to me, I am outside now!

I can only open this crack!

Hurry out!!

Hurry!

I can’t hold it long!!

Quick!

Quick!

Quick!!” “It’s you again, you old immortal!!!!!!”

Under the water surface, the horrifying face roars in frenzy!

The opened gap quickly closes, the beam of light shrinks rapidly, and meanwhile, more arms are fearlessly wrapped around Da Zhe and the child, even risking burning and disappearing. “Uncle…”

Da Zhe suddenly lowers his head to look at the child, smiles slightly, and says, “Don’t be afraid… this time, I still have to let go.” “Uncle…”

Da Zhe roars angrily, twists his body rapidly, using the golden light on his back to resist the black arms, and gritting his teeth, pushes the child towards the beam of light, “I’ll replace you!!!” “Uncle——!!!”

The gigantic mouth under the water suddenly rushes out, swallowing Da Zhe…

Watching the child…

Watching the little one already within the range of the beam of light, slowly ascending, Da Zhe slowly closes his eyes. “…If that day, I could replace you… how wonderful that would be…”

He was swallowed completely by the darkness. … … “Xiao Hu!

Xiao Hu!”

Voices of Da Zhe, Dragon, and several brothers continuously appear by Xiao Hu’s ears…

Right at this place, this place with no escape—by the cliff. “Don’t come any closer, don’t…

I’m begging you, please don’t come closer…” Xiao Hu still points the handgun at the child’s head. “Save me… boo-hoo!!” “Xiao Hu!

Listen!

Put down the gun!” Da Zhe steps forward two steps, biting his teeth to endure the pain and says, “Listen, okay?

Don’t make any more mistakes… it’s very dangerous up ahead.” “Brother Zhe…” Xiao Hu cries out loudly: “I can’t anymore…

I’ve killed so many people…

I don’t want to go back!

I don’t want to go back!!” “Xiao Hu!!!

Turn back!!!!” “I can’t!

I can’t!!!” Xiao Hu howls with excitement: “I can’t go back!!

I’m just a waste!

I can’t make money!!

I can’t find a good job!!

My wife is about to give birth!

Yet I’m still gambling…

I’m useless…

I’m really useless… so don’t bother with me!!

Don’t bother with me!!

Brother Zhe, I’m begging you, stop bothering with me…

Don’t cry!!

If you keep crying… if you keep crying, I’ll…

I’ll kill you!!!” “Xiao Hu!

Don’t be impulsive!!” “I can’t go back…

I can’t go back…” Xiao Hu shakes his head, “I’m dead, dead for sure…” “Xiao Hu!

You said your child is about to be born soon!

Can you bear it!!

Don’t you want to see your son being born?” “Child… my child…” Xiao Hu pauses, “My child…”

He slowly put down the handgun he was holding, Da Zhe’s eyes light up and he approaches slowly, “That’s right, Xiao Hu, your wife told us she wants you to come back!

She wants to see you!

She even asked me to ask you, have you chosen a name for the child yet!” “Really… really?” “When have I lied to you?” Da Zhe keeps approaching, “If you don’t believe it, come back with me, and you’ll know, right?

Oh, the doctor also said, she’s having a difficult delivery, aren’t you going to see her?” “I…

I…” Xiao Hu instinctively loosens his grip a bit.

Rumble——! “You can’t escape anymore, drop your weapon, release the hostage and surrender——!”

A helicopter flies over the forest, appearing overhead, roaring loudly. “You’re lying to me!!!

Lying to me!!!

I don’t want to go back!!”

Xiao Hu, once again agitated, tightens his arms again, instinctively retreating, retreating… retreating… nowhere to retreat!

Only to see Da Zhe leap out, his brothers behind him also leap out—the latter merely grabs Da Zhe’s legs.

But Da Zhe’s body is already fully pressed against the edge of the cliff, he can only barely grab Xiao Hu’s backpack strap, Xiao Hu can only hold onto his backpack strap while clutching the child’s clothes with one hand.

The injured arm is bleeding frantically, dripping onto Xiao Hu’s face, Xiao Hu, in a panic, holds onto and wants to climb up, “Save, save me… save me, Brother Zhe…

Brother Zhe…

I don’t want to die, I don’t want to die, I don’t want to die…” “Uncle… oh…”

His left hand feels like it’s being torn apart, grabbing the strap bit by bit, sliding away from his fingers…

The terrified child shakes his body incessantly on the other side.

The brothers behind shout frantically. “I want to see my child, I want to see…

I’m sorry…

I was really wrong…

Brother Zhe…” “Mama… boo-hoo…

I want to go home…

Mama…

I want to go home…” “Ah… ah!!!!!!!!!!!!!!” Da Zhe closes his eyes. “Ma…”

Fall.

Fall. … … … …

Fall… into the depths of the depths.

Sinking into what seems like the endless darkness, Da Zhe doesn’t know how deep these arms will drag him… he only knows that arm after arm is now piercing his body from all directions.

They intend to truly tear him apart in this place. “Wei Dazhe…

Wei Dazhe… do you think this is enough to atone for your crimes… you will endure endless pain here… you will keep us company… forever, forever!!” “Ah, alright.” “You think… can you save them… that old thing is covered in wounds, can’t hold on, hahaha!!!”

Da Zhe suddenly opens his eyes!

Only to see above him, the child of Sister Lin, Master Jin, and Da Tou all being dragged into this place, all have lost consciousness. “How could…”

The pain magnifies frantically, something deeper than darkness…

No matter what it takes… at least save them…

I already… can’t do anything… just to watch… once again… this time, not even a choice…?

Da Zhe instinctively reaches out, but can’t grasp the people sinking above him…

A key appears at this moment.

This key is… “Sword named ‘Zhan Lu’, do you want it?”
