Chapter 316 - 209: Discussing Peace
Reviewing the recent events, the elderly man with the Mosin-Nagant rifle had tried to grab a grenade from the ammo pouch on his chest after Gao Yuan knocked the rifle out of his hands.
But he quickly realized he couldn’t move his right hand, and even if he could, the grenade would be useless, so he immediately fell backwards, abandoning the attempt to grab the grenade.
Gao Yuan ran over and instantly took to the sky.
As both men stood motionless due to extreme shock and fear, the Mosin-Nagant elder spotted the rifle Gao Yuan had discarded nearby and rolled over to it.
Since his right arm wasn’t working, the Mosin-Nagant elder lay on the ground, propped his legs up in a cross-legged position, and used his foot for support to fire two more shots at Gao Yuan.
Gao Yuan had intended to kick the old man, but realizing the elder was actually going to shoot before he could kick, he stamped his right foot violently on the ground, and his body surged forward.
Gao Yuan’s accelerated dive caused the two bullets aimed at his head to hit his abdomen and chest instead, and then, losing balance from the dive, he casually seized the elder’s rifle and threw it far away.
Next, Gao Yuan intended to stomp the old man lying in front of him to death, but as he brought his right foot down, he didn’t know what he was thinking.
Gao Yuan shifted his foot slightly, so it landed beside the old man’s face, and with his high-speed movement, he immediately rushed forward again.
Within a blink, Gao Yuan had spared the old man’s life—not out of consideration for the bigger picture, but because he himself didn’t know why he hadn’t crushed the man with his foot.
