Chapter 36: Winter Goes to Spring, Flowers Bloom (Part 3)

It was twelve o'clock at noon, and Yakumo Zi finished a day's special weight loss training and was sitting on a tree stump in the Enchanted Forest with Nalan Twilight eating a bento. That's Yakumo Blue Teriyaki Chicken Breast Potato Salad with Friends of Dieters Cold Soba Noodles, if you're curious.

All in all, everything happened very suddenly, Nalan Twilight had just opened the lunch bag, and before he could open the lunch box, the place where they were sitting was ploughed into a deep ditch by a huge blue light magic cannon like a train.

He didn't know how he dodged the shot, probably instinctively. Anyway, when he came to his senses, he was standing on the edge of the white smoke ravine, with the balls of his forefeet dangling in the air, holding a half-burned wooden lunch box in his hand, and his nose was full of burnt smell.

Okay, it's over lunchtime.

"Oops, this is really bad!"

The person who said this in a panic was Yakumo Murasaki. She was now hiding behind Nalan Twilight, sticking out a pair of eyes to peek ahead, like a mouse seeing a cat.

"What are you doing here when you're idle, do you want to get along with me?"

"No, I think," Nalan said, turning to her, "she's coming for me." ”

Directly in front of them, through the rows of charred trees lying on the ground, and the dirt that had tumbled from the inside out, a familiar, but not expectant, figure was emerging from the rolling smoke, slowly but surely, towards them.

That person is the Lord of the Four Seasons Flowers, the Lord of the Sun Flower Field and the Dream Pavilion, the apex of the youkai, and the strongest creature that walks on the land of Gensokyo.

The wind is fragrant.

"Before she saw me, I slipped away first!"

As she said this, Yakumo opened a gap, and when Nalan opened her mouth, she had already stepped into it with one foot.

"I didn't expect that," Nalan said with a smile, "that you're so afraid of her." ”

"It's not a question of whether you're afraid or not!" Yakumo Zi got into the gap, leaned out his upper body again, and said to him:

"If she sees my virtue, I'm going to die socially in the monster world, you know?"

"Ah...... Ha ......"

Nalan looked at Zi, but she really didn't know what to say, so she had to smile. The guy was now wearing a tight, warm tracksuit, and no matter what he did, he couldn't hide the lifebuoy bobbing up and down, and the big legs and ass that stretched the sweatpants to the limit. From another point of view, this is really a good figure for the earth-shattering ghosts and gods.

"Anyway, that's it, slippery!"

Yakumo Zi dropped this sentence, closed the zipper between the gaps, and disappeared without a trace.

"I seem to hear a woman's voice," said Yuka Kazami, who had just walked closer, "Is it a delusion?"

"Delusion, right?" Nalan turned her head to look at Yuxiang, "I'm the only one here." ”

At this point, Reimu should have defeated Yuyuko, and the spring breeze has swept through the underworld. However, no one in Gensokkyo knows about it yet. The temperature here is still below freezing, with light snow in the sky and hoarfrost in the ground, and a deep winter climate.

Despite this, Yuka still wears her Scottish-style short shirt and plaid skirt, as well as a pair of long leather boots. She just like that, exposing her knees and half of her big legs to the cold wind, as if she didn't know what the cold was. Of course, Nalan Yu, who was standing opposite her, was only wearing a thin black shirt in autumn clothes. Cool winter clothes should be regarded as a sideline trend in Gensokyo?

"So," Nalan said, "what are you doing here?" 'Good afternoon,' shall I say so?"

"Good afternoon. Yuxiang said expressionlessly.

Nalan Twilight could see at a glance that this guy's mood was not very good.

If she's in a good mood, then she must have that elusive smile on her face, which is peculiar to older yokai. But now, there was not even a hint of a smile on her face, and Nalan Hao instinctively felt a little uneasy about this.

"I'll see if you have a breath or not, and your limbs are sound or not. Youxiang glanced up and down at Nalan Twilight, and said, "Since you are living well, then ......"

"I didn't bother to say hello, so I said it directly. Because of this snow, not a single flower that should have bloomed has bloomed. To be honest, I'm very, unhappy. ”

"I'm a person, when I'm not happy, I want to find a sandbag to punch and get angry. ”

"So you found me?" Nalan said, pointing at herself, laughing and crying, "To you, I look so much like a sandbag?"

"Yes. ”

With that, Yuka twisted her neck and stretched her arms, making a crisp joint sound of "rattle" and "rattle".

"I've been beaten, Nalan Twilight. She continued, "You don't have a choice. ”

Her tone, like what she said, was brutal.

"Calm down, calm down first, okay?"

Nalan Yu pushed his hands forward, made a "stop" gesture, and said:

"I can understand your feelings...... If anyone can understand you, that person is from an alien planet...... But, no matter what I say, you're just as good at doing it, aren't you?"

"As I said, you don't have a choice. "You can fight back, or you can choose to be a taciturn sandbag." Now that I'm here, I'm going to beat you up. ”

"Alright then," Nalan shrugged, "Let's do it, but can we set two rules before we start?"

"Say, what rules?"

"For one, given that you and I both have near-immortal bodies, excessive self-regeneration can make combat very tedious. Therefore, self-healing and resurrection are forbidden. ”

As she said this, Nalan made a small cut on her arm with her little finger. Blood spilled from the tiny wound, but it showed no signs of healing, just like a human being.

"Look, it's like this. He raised his wounded arm, shook it twice at Yuka, and continued, "All wounds sustained in battle are to be kept until the end of the battle. Just in case, let me ask first, you should be able to suppress the regenerative function of the body on its own, right?"

"Nonsense," Yuka said angrily, "are you looking down on me?"

"No, I'm just asking. It's not uncommon for people who are very strong, but act entirely on instinct, and you shouldn't. ”

And there is one such person in the Red Devil Pavilion.

"Second," Nalan twilight raised two fingers, "the first side to lose the ability to fight loses." Are these two rules acceptable?"

"I don't care at all, whether there are rules or not, it doesn't bother me. Yuka said, "It's you, this is a rule you put forward yourself, do you really think it's okay?"

"No, not at all, rather, it's good for me. ”

Nalan said with a confident smile on his face, as if he had won the battle. Yuxiang looked at him like this, neither knowing what medicine he was selling in the gourd, nor was she interested in knowing, she just shrugged her shoulders and said:

"Since you think so......"

This rule, the second one is okay, it is a safety lock that is generally accepted when the big monsters are fighting, and the problem is on the first one.

This article, on the surface, restricts both sides, but in fact, it restricts Nalan Twilight far more than it restricts Youxiang. The reason is very simple, without the ability to heal itself, the fragrance is still fragrant, but Nalan Twilight is not Nalan Twilight. The importance of this ability is completely different for the two.

Yuxiang's body is as hard as a diamond, and her strength is so strong that she doesn't know how strong it is, regeneration and resurrection, she can only use it theoretically, but in fact, she may not use it once in hundreds of years. For Nalan Twilight, self-regeneration is one of his regular tactics, and it can be regarded as a survival skill. A vampire who has no regenerative ability is just a human with more physical ability.

It's like an eagle trading its wings for a tiger's whiskers. Cutting off his housekeeping skills and replacing the little trick that the opponent used to add icing on the cake, what is the purpose of this, Yuxiang still can't understand it for a while. Perhaps, Nalan Twilight has other ideas?

It doesn't matter, she wins anyway, and the loss of self-healing ability will only make Nalan Yu die faster. As for her own injuries...... Don't be funny, Kazami Yuka will get hurt too?

"I can assume that you and I have reached a consensus, right?"

In the face of Nalan Twilight's question, Yuxiang nodded without thinking.

"In that case, let's get started. ”

Nalan Twilight said, hooking his hand at Yuxiang defiantly.

"Come on," he said with a smile, "Lady first." ”

"The real reason why I set this rule, you will soon know. "Soon, very ......soon," he thought to himself, "Soon, very quickly."
