Capítulo 7: "I won't be kind enough"
Gao Lei didn't know what had just happened,
His guard was trembling in fear as a moment ago he witnessed his death, couldn't stand firm on his legs, he lost his balance and with a "Flop"!!! He was on the ground...
The sound was loud enough to grab the attention of those horrific branches.
They leapt at the man on the ground as the branch was about to penetrate his throat. Several blades just in a go chopped off the complete tree with a loud "BANG"!! the tree was on the ground. The movements shook the ground, and it covered the surrounding area with the dust that was blown up from the ground by the falling tree. It was as though the fog had covered the complete scene & made it difficult to see.
with all this happening, they heard a familiar voice which carried a surprising tone
"Ha! We met again, General Gao!"
The moment Gao Lei recognised the voice he said all annoyed "It's you again? "
"I thought you would appreciate my help, but I see General Gao doesn't intend to do that," said 'Wang Bai' in an unpleasant tone.
Gao Lei could at least see anything, with the dust covered everywhere, But he tried his best to open his eyes, What he saw was a handsome face carrying an Almighty expression under the MoonLight, Dust was nowhere to be seen around him as though there was making the space clear for him to walk, his hands were crossly folded behind, He walked forward elegantly, He took his right hand from behind which carried a dark blue fan printed on it was a colourful mighty bird, which seemed eye-pleasing, but on second look it seemed very dangerous, with a 'SWOOSH' he fanned forward, The entire place was now clearly visible.
"Who the hell are you? How did you alone deal with that strange thing?" Asked Gao Lei in a suspicious tone.
A mix of discontent flashing in those pair of shimmering eyes & A dangerous smirk on his beautiful lips together created a lethal aura. He moved closer & said in an umbrage tone "It's bad manners not to appreciate your saviour, 'General Gao! " he squinted his eyes a little & continued "I thought you're an upright person". Saying this, he continued to walk his way.
"I don't hold on to anybody's favour. I'll return it to you when the time comes. But strange behaviour and actions of yours makes me suspicious of your identity".
without resuming his steps he said,
"Ah! I see, General Gao! I advise you not to take a special interest in my personality. This village isn't a safe place. Better focus on your journey.
"Are you threatening me? You're such an arrogant kid," said Gao Lei in an irked way.
Wang Bai paused for a moment & looked behind his eyes flashed a fierce look, that could send a chill to anybody's spine with a warning tone he said "Choose your words wisely, Next time I won't be kind enough" After completing this sentence his face instantly changed with an innocent smile he said, "Have a safe trip, General Gao"& walked away.
Somewhere deep in the forest, The area surrounded the darkness, Towering trees blocked the beam of the moonlight passing through the lattice of the leaves, Ground was covered with thorns & high grasses that made it difficult for one to walk in, Nearby was a lake reflecting the moon and stars of the starry sky the lake was shimmering yet in a calm state, with a small boat tied at the corner which had a net in it and paddles on either side. Walking past to it was a beautiful tallow tree with the leaves in all its mighty colour and under the moonlight, it looked divine.
But to think of it made a strange arrangement of nature. It was a dark and wild forest which had a terrible aura with all those creepy trees and wired surroundings. A beautifully glowing tree wasn't a match at all.
Beside it was a cave with a small opening. The way to it was very difficult, with barriers around, to enter the cave. One had to climb a little. In the outer area of the cave were some tiny and deadly species crawling.
The opening was a narrow passage with a room for one person to enter; it covered the upper part with spider webs & poison spiders wriggling on it. If it were to bite a being, he would face instant death.
The narrow passage continued for a while and led to a spacious place. Inside were the beautifully arranged rocks. The ground was clear as crystal. It was a very beautiful, and calm place, yet somewhere around was a disturbing sound 'Plop! plop! Plop! of water droplets, followed by a small pond with transparent shiny water.
The cave was further divided into many rooms. There wasn't an opening above or any place for light to pass in, yet the cave was very bright, as though the sun/ moon was facing directly towards it.
Accompanied by the sound of water droplets was another sound of low breaths, which were calm but had a sense of tension.
The breaths were in sync with the rhythm of every falling drop of water and it belonged to a person who sat there crossing his arms & binding his legs, covering his face in his arms.
as though he were trying to escape punishment after committing a grave sin.
