After a vicious fight, the defeated bandits quickly leapt back into the jungle by the river, leaving only a broken boat that had not yet burned out, and the faintly red water of the river.

Once again, the surrounding was assured into silence and the only sound left was the sound of their boat sailing.

Indeed, the three of Azhi were injured in the explosion, but fortunately, because of Qiao Wen’s timely reminder, the injuries were not serious. The few who fought fiercely on the boat also suffered injuries to varying degrees, but they were all tough guys who had experienced strong winds and waves, so the mere knife wound was nothing more than the light scratches.

By the way, only Qiao Wen was unscathed.

After facing this adventitious situation, they felt how unsafe the river was and had only one thought in their mind that was to arrive before dark. Not daring to delay any longer, Jiang Yufeng ordered the helmsman to speed up the boat. The rest of the people sat on the deck to treat the wound and after that they laid on the ground to rest after the robbery.

Qiao Wen followed Chen Jianan into the cabin in silence.

Chen Jianan also suffered a little knife wound in his arm, but it was not serious. He just treated it with iodophor. The two sat on the ground, leaned against the bunk roll, looking out at the tropical jungle scenery that was constantly rowing outside the cabin without a word.

Not only were they silent, but the few on the outside deck were in prolonged silence, as if horrified by the sudden volte-face.

It was not known how long it passed. Qiao Wen retracted his gaze, fell on the wound on Chen Jianan’s arm, and asked, “Brother Nan, does it hurt?”

Chen Jianan froze for a moment, smiled lightly, and shook his head: “It’s just a small scratch, does not hurt.” As he said, he stretched out his hand and rubbed his hair. “Are you frightened?”

He couldn’t remember how long it had been since he touched Qiao Wen like this. He used to touch his head like this when he thought he was weak and needed to take care of him. But it seemed that since a few months ago, Qiao Wen seemed to have grown up suddenly, and was no longer the timid brother he was familiar with, and has more ideas than himself when encountering things.

But no matter how he thought about it, his younger brother was only eighteen years old, a young man who had never experienced anything. Now that he was asked to watch them kill people, how could he accept it for a while?

Not to mention Qiao Wen, even he himself couldn’t bear it when thinking of the teenage boy scouts who died just now.

It’s not that he’d never seen a murder before. It was very common in the Walled City to see people lying dead on the street every three days. Before that, he thought it wasn’t a big deal, but when it was his turn to do it, he realized that a living life was dead in his own hands. The impact was still greater than he expected.

Thinking of this, he slid his hand from Qiao Wen’s head to his thin shoulder, and pulled him into his arms.

Qiao Wen looked up at him, guessing that he was also suffering from the first murder today. But he was still comforting him. He didn’t break away from his arm, instead leaned on his shoulder and said in a low voice, “Brother Nan, I’m fine. If you hadn’t moved quickly, I would have been killed by that child.”

In fact, Chen Jianan didn’t see the child face clearly. So when he recalled back he only vaguely saw that he was a thin, thirteen or fourteen-year-old boy, who became a desperado at such a young age, and must be forced by life. Of course, he didn’t regret killing him, but he couldn’t help but feel sorry for him.

Qiao Wen glanced at him calmly. The 19-year-old young man had a heavy expression at the moment, and he rarely showed the compassion of a young and mature man.

As he watched the vicious fight a few minutes back, he had mixed feelings in his heart. But now, seeing Chen Jianan’s expression, which looked a little sad rather than the bloodthirsty excitement after the killing, he felt little comfort in his heart, and it showed he was indeed a kind person in heart.

But he couldn’t help wondering, what kind of mental journey did such a person go through in the original world before he became a full-fledged villain?

The two leaned together quietly, each with their own thoughts, and fell into a long silence again, until it was broken by Jiang Yufeng entering the cabin.

Jiang Yufeng was a tall man, so he had to bend over to get in. When he looked up at the two brothers who were cuddling together, seemingly in a daze.

He knew beforehand that the two had a good relationship, and he saw it with his own eyes on the boat these few days, eating the same bowl of rice and sleeping under the same quilt. But forgive him for his lack of knowledge. He lived to be in his twenties and never really saw a brother this big, huddled together when fell asleep at night.

If it had not been for his certainty that the two men were immaculate brothers, he could not resist speculating elsewhere.

He silently looked at the two young men, one looked handsome and the other also looked handsome.

Not to mention it’s quite eye-catching.

“What? Still haven’t gotten over it?” He walked over and sat down opposite the two of them.

Qiao Wen returned to his senses, sat up straight, and said in unison with Chen Canan: “Brother Feng.”

Among the people, only Jiang Yufeng saw the most winds and waves, so although he had lingering fears, he was still calm and collected. He stretched out and put his hand on Chen Jianan’s shoulder, hooked the corners of the mouth in a light smile: “Anan, you saved Brother Feng’s life today, this Brother Feng will remember this.”

Chen Jianan didn’t care about it: “If I can’t do this, how can I be worthy of the opportunity given to me by Brother Feng?”

Jiang Yufeng smiled and shook his head, and looked at Qiao Wen again: “However, Awen is the one who has contributed the most today. If you didn’t find something abnormal and asked Azhi and the others to return, and then let the boat go back, I’m afraid we would have already turned here today.”

Qiao Wen said: “I also suddenly felt something wrong.”

Jiang Yufeng asked curiously: “Did you feel where is wrong?”

“I don’t know. It’s just instinct.” Qiao Wen frowned and shook his head.

Jiang Yufeng was taken aback for a moment, a while later he became serious: “Awen, if you encounter something like today, no matter what the situation is, don’t be too soft-hearted.”

“That’s right!” Chen Jianan finally recovered from the sadness after the murder, filled with righteous indignation and nodded in agreement, “You are just a soft-hearted and almost died in the hands of that little brat.”

Qiao Wen felt chills down his spine when he thought of the close call just now. He slowly exhaled his mouth. It was only at this moment that he clearly realized that in the cruel age of the jungle, a little kindness to the enemy could lead to irreparable consequences.

It was too difficult for him to kill people, and the other was a child, even though he knew very well that the country, which had been ravaged by war for so many years, was already full of women and children.

Jiang Yufeng continues: “You too, Anan, aren’t you just killing someone? These bandits are here for our lives. If you don’t kill them, they will have to kill us. Keep your spirit up. This mission is not over yet.”

Chen Jianan didn’t have so many twists and turns in his heart like Qiao Wen’s, hearing this, he really cheered up, and his slightly depressed eyes showed two fierce lights, and said viciously: “Yes, If I don’t kill them they would have killed me. If it weren’t for these scumbags to be young, I would never show mercy. If they dare to come back again, I kill them one by one.”

Qiao Wen looked up and watched his reaction silently, which was in line with his quasi-villainous persona.

He caught a glimpse of the blood that hadn’t dried up on his hand again, and suddenly he felt a little worried, because he knew that once something started, it would be a matter of course in the future.

Today, he never wants Chen Jianan to go down on the old path again.
