Chapter 251: The Heroine's Rivers and Lakes (Two in One)
The forest stretches as far as the eye can see.
The mountains are undulating.
The subtropical climate makes the trees lush and tall, and it is almost impossible to see the sky when you look up in the forest. The ground, on the other hand, is a collection of dead branches and leaves that have accumulated over the years, rotting like soft wet mud, leaving a deep footprint when you step on it. At the same time, the forest is full of poisonous insects, snakes and ants, and the lush low trees also make it difficult to walk.
Suddenly, there was a rush of footsteps.
This was followed by a slight wheezing sound.
Boom!
A bush was directly knocked away, and a figure jumped out like a leopard, quickly running into the distance!
And then there's another figure!
The two of them slammed directly into the bushes one after the other, and the speed was not like that of humans, so fast that they brought out the afterimage, and their faces could not be seen clearly with the naked eye.
But I could vaguely see that they were all human, all dressed in coarse cloth, and there was occasionally a cold light around them, which was the dazzling luster reflected by the sharp and bloodthirsty blades of the sunlight shining through the gaps in the branches and leaves of the trees!
Escape and fight, life and death are only in an instant!
Running in front of her was a woman, her figure was extremely well proportioned, her charming face had a scar, and she was holding a long knife shaped like a goose feather in her hand, and every step contained extremely strong strength, and her figure instantly jumped several meters away. Occasionally, she glanced back, changing direction to shake off the pursuers behind her, while gritting her teeth and speeding up.
"Whew~"
She gasped for breath, but she didn't dare to relax, and immediately turned left again, plunging headlong into the dim woods.
The pursuer behind him was also very tired, but he, like Yin Nuxia, refused to give up!
He maintained a high degree of concentration, because people do not have the sense of smell of fierce beasts, and under the pursuit of such speed, the footprints left by the former are not helpful to his pursuit at all, he can only judge which way the former ran according to the sound coming from the front, so that the slightest carelessness may be lost.
He will not allow it!
It didn't take long for him to feel like he was climbing.
It's been a long climb.
The trees, which are often tens of meters high, completely block the view of the people in it, and it is impossible to distinguish the direction......
Wrong!
Although there are mountains everywhere around here, there is only one mountain that is so high - that volcano!
Don't...... Can she climb rocks?
Or does she want to go over the volcano and go straight to the beach? Is she a good swimmer? Or is someone at the beach to pick her up?
The man's face sank, and he picked up the sword in his hand and sped up againβalthough he was faster than the former, it was too hard to chase and kill people in the forest.
Finally, he caught up with Yin Nuxia at the foot of the volcano!
The man looked at the Yin woman who stopped in place and was panting, only to feel that his legs were as heavy as lead. He thought the other party was the same, after all, women were born with inferior physical strength to men, and even he, who was born in the light feather gate who was good at body skills and endurance, couldn't run, let alone this wild road.
The two confronted each other, about the same height.
"Whew!!"
He looked up at the volcano above, they had run out of the forest, and were now surrounded by rubble and cooled lava, barely growing - they couldn't outrun him in this environment, and the gravel environment was in his favor!
So he quickly clenched his sword and said in a deep voice: "With your strength, you can't hold the Void Order Arrow!
Yin Nuxia took a deep breath, and also clenched the Yanling knife in her hand, which had experienced many battles, and stared at the opponent's thin sword: "Impossible!"
It was an extremely thin sword, the body of which was like a steel bar, not flat, but three-edged, and it did not have the double edges of an ordinary sword, but the tip of the sword was far sharper than that of an ordinary sword.
"Light Bird Gate!" she said in a deep voice.
"Light Feather Gate!" the other party corrected in a deep voice, and then looked at the scar on her face, but frowned, "I seem to have seen you, where are you?"
"Don't grind and chirp here, since everyone can't run, let's fight!"
"I remembered!" The man's frowning brows relaxed, staring at Yin Nuxia, "Ji Qinglin!"
When Yin Nuxia heard this, she was shocked.
"At that time, your battle left a deep impression on me, I originally planned to wait for you to die, but I didn't expect Ji Qinglin to be defeated at your hands. I'm still waiting for you to become famous, but I haven't heard from you all the time...... So you're not dead!" The man said lightly, holding his thin sword and dancing lightly twice, "You can't beat me, and you shouldn't be holding the Void Order Arrow." I don't want to fight you to the death, so hand it over. β
"Impossible!" Yin Nuxia said in a deep voice.
"Why? You just got the Void Order Arrow, and you don't have much to lose if you lose it. The man's face gradually sank, "I don't want to be injured, and you'd better not look for death!"
"It's not certain who loses and who wins! And even if you get the arrow from me, don't you have to fight with others?" Yin Nuxia never took her eyes off the other party's sword, there were obvious blood stains on her blade, obviously she had just experienced a battle. And at this time, neither she nor the other party dared to make a move easily, because in this kind of battle, it is not the size of the sieve cup that is bigger than the number of points, and whoever is bigger wins, but there are many accidents, and it is likely that the luck is almost and the slightest carelessness will be defeated and killed.
"Why do you want to keep it?" the man asked.
"Yes!"
"Do you want to fly to the upper realm?" the man seemed to hear a big joke, "With your strength, you still want to fly to the upper realm?"
"And what are you doing here?"
"Sell!"
"Selling, you're going to sell this treasure?"
"Why not?" the man sneered, "Someone gave three hundred taels of silver, three hundred taels, how many people do I have to kill to earn three hundred taels!"
"Three hundred taels ......"
"Enough is enough!"
"Enough is enough. Yin Nuxia muttered, "But I still have to leave here and go to the Upper Realm." β
No one knows what the Upper Realm looks like, maybe those stories are made up by others, except for those big people who are happy to the end, who really wants to ascend?"
"I think. Yin Nuxia slowly retreated with a knife, but kept staring at the other party, and said, "Don't you know what this world is like? chaotic, dark, and disorderless. The poor can't afford to eat, they can't wear clothes, and human life is sometimes cheaper than paper, but the big people can do whatever they want. The money you earn from killing a family of five is enough for them to eat a meal, no matter how high your martial arts are, you can only be kneaded by them at will, the life you want to live in the rivers and lakes for half your life is not as good as a dog they raise, what's the point of living in this world?"
"And is your life really in your hands? Can you really guarantee that you will live to old age?"
"Maybe there is no money to eat, starving to death. β
"Maybe he was killed in a fight. β
"Maybe it was freezing to death in the streets one winter. β
"Maybe it was killed by officers and soldiers like my father and my mother!"
"Maybe it's a war, a natural disaster, maybe someone is offended on the street, maybe it's just someone who sees you unpleasantly and wants to use you for fun......"
"Maybe you were injured while taking the job, and you can only slowly watch the wound fester, slowly become weak, and finally you can't even speak, and you die in the torture little by little. β
"Or maybe it was killed by a young man a few decades later, when he was getting older. β
"I was stabbed by a friend and framed by my companions......"
"Maybe I'm lucky, I survived, I retreated, found a place to live in seclusion, grew old slowly, and lived a life of farming and godson, calm and comfortable. When Yin Nuxia said this, she suddenly felt a trance in front of her, as if she had seen the picture of the cliff flat land in Cliff Village a long time ago, and shook her head fiercely with hazy eyes, "But there will still be people who will find me, and there will still be juniors who will challenge me, for the sake of fame, they will not care if I have a family or not, they will only kill me without hesitation!"
"Do I want to live this kind of life?" "Yin Nuxia waved the knife in front of her, almost roaring, "If you don't want to die like this, you have to live in another place!"
The man was also stunned, but he still didn't want to fight to the death with a person who was not much different from his own strength, not everyone was so crazy, so he said: "Dirty conspiracies, bloody fights, everywhere, how can you be sure that there is no such thing in the upper realm." β
"I'm going to try!"
"Who told you this?"
"One...... Old friend, he's dead. β
"But what if the people of the upper realm are also people like us?
"Then I believe that all those who have reached the upper realm, no matter how bloody and dirty they were before, will be like me when they reach the upper realm, let go of the rivers and lakes, and live a good life from now on. β
"You've gone crazy......"
"I didn't!" Yin Nuxia clenched the knife tightly, "Let me go, or maybe die here, you choose!"
The man hesitated when he heard this, but in the end he still raised the knife: "You can't beat me!"
"I'm not afraid of death!"
"It seems that this scene can't be avoided. The man shook his head and said, and then his face gradually showed a relieved expression, "Also, people who go to the rivers and lakes, it is common to fight and kill, and if you can hide once, can you hide for a lifetime?"
"Hey!" Yin Nuxia grinned, raised her left arm, held the knife in her right hand, and wiped the knife on the sleeve of her left hand one by one, wiping the blood stains left before, "I still say that, you and I are not necessarily who loses or who wins! I have heard that Qingyumen is good at single battles, but I have also practiced the Southern Flying Fish Knife Technique to Xiaocheng, and it is up to you and me to decide who is stronger and who is weak in today's chopping and bayonet swords." β
"Oh, Flying Fish Knife Technique!" the man's expression became solemn, and then he leaned sideways into a fencing-like pose.
The two quickly collided with each other.
About twenty minutes later.
The Ge linen cloth on Yin Nuxia's body was tattered and red with blood, and her left shoulder was stabbed by the other party, blood continued to seep out, and her right hand holding the knife trembled.
The other party was lying on the ground, his sword-wielding arm chopped off in unison, and the blood flowing from his body accumulated a small pool of blood on the volcanic stone. But he was not dead, his mouth was still open, his face was pale as paper from the intense pain, and covered with beads of sweat the size of beans, and his mouth was panting rapidly, and he exhaled 'ho-ho'.
Yin Nuxia looked down at him, but grinned: "I'll just say, it's not certain who loses and who wins!"
The man stared at her for a while, and finally held back a sentence: "Kill...... Finish...... I ......"
"You don't die from your injuries. β
"Kill...... Finish...... I ......"
"......" Yin Nuxia was silent, after being in the rivers and lakes for so long, she probably knew what would happen to a slightly famous swordsman who lost his sword-holding hand - probably the lightest result was to be happily killed!
"Kill...... Finish...... I ......," the man shouted.
Yin Nuxia was silent for a moment, staring at his ordinary face, and finally raised the knife: "Look, in this world, there is actually no difference between being alive and dead. β
Laugh at!
A moment later, Yin Nuxia left here.
Leaving behind the corpse of a master of the rivers and lakes, feeding wild dogs and vultures, most of which no one knows.
****************
In the morning, Cheng Yun woke up, but he sat on the edge of the bed and pondered for a long time.
He didn't expect that he would dream of Yin Nuxia, because he hadn't dreamed of Yin Nuxia for a long time.
Originally...... Yin Nuxia also has times when she is not wooden.
Originally...... When Yin Nuxia first came to this world, she was actually injured.
Originally...... The process of obtaining the Void Order Arrow was really as she bragged, there was a process of snatching, and Cheng Yun thought that her Void Order Arrow was completely picked up.
The little Lori on the side also woke up quickly, lying flat on its princess bed, tilting its head to look at Cheng Yun, and also fell into deep thought.
It was thinking, what was this human thinking?
"Alas. Cheng Yun sighed, he originally wanted to use a notebook to write down this dream, but he thought about it and gave up - if he would forget it, then let it be forgotten.
"Wow!"
He lifted the quilt and sat up, picked up the clothes on the bedside table and began to put them on, then went into the bathroom and began to wash up.
Little Lori was still tilting her head and staring at the bathroom.
The bathroom was slamming, and his shadow could be seen through the frosted glass.
After a moment, little Lori hesitated, and also stretched out a small paw to lift the quilt, and then it sat up, turning its head to look at the collar and hairpin next to the small pillow.
It knows how to take it, and it knows how to put it on.
Soon, it was 'neatly dressed' and lying on the bed staring at the frosted glass of the bathroom.
After a while, Cheng Yun hadn't come out yet, and he couldn't help but be a little bored waiting, so he rolled over on his new bed.
When Cheng Yun finished washing, the little mage also happened to come in, holding the toothpaste, toothbrush, and mouthwash cup he bought yesterday, and a blue towel on his shoulder, it seemed that he was also here to wash.
Little Lori suddenly jumped over and ran into the bathroom in front of the little mage.
With a bang, the door slammed shut.
The little mage stood in the doorway with an embarrassed expression.
Cheng Yun comforted: "Let it go first, it will line up first." β
The little mage nodded and sat down next to him.
"By the way......" He seemed to want to ask something, but as soon as he spoke, there was a knock on the door.
"Knock knock, stationmaster, stationmaster!"
"Hmm, it's a woman......" Cheng Yun immediately got up and smiled apologetically at the little mage, "I'll go open the door for her first." β
"Good. The little mage understood.
