Chapter 18: Hand-to-hand
“…… Looking at the traces, the direction of the battle was extended here, and while chasing and fleeing, it did not continue upward, but passed towards the west......"
Xin Yuan squatted, reached out and touched the bullet marks in the corner of the wall, and then looked at the half-broken combined flower pot on the side, and his mind had roughly drawn the battle scene that happened here not long ago. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
“…… It's beautiful, there is a group here that organized a sudden counterattack, and the pursuing side suffered at least three dead and wounded, pressed back more than eight meters, and then continued to retreat ......"
He shifted his position and searched the ground, and sure enough, he found a pool of blood that continued to pass into the distance. After moving a few steps forward with the bloodstains, he thought for a moment, clapped his hands, turned around, and stared intently at the messy office not far away.
Xin Yuan had been staying in this place where the battle had taken place for a while.
After obtaining the Stone Ghost Face, the next thing he needs to do is to gather enough information to provide enough basis for the next decision on how to escape from this land of right and wrong, the most important of which is how the follow-up development after the battle on the fourth floor? Where have the attackers and targets gone now?
He didn't want to be swept up in such a battle that had nothing to do with him.
At the beginning of the twelfth floor, he found traces of the chase between the two sides, and then he followed the traces all the way to the fifteenth floor, and arrived here.
"West...... It should be the direction of the air corridor, where is it retreating? Didn't go to the horrible old monk to join up? ”
Xin Yuan frowned and thought, he remembered that the big man came with the old monk, and the big man and the old monk should have a certain friendship, why didn't he look for the old monk's protection? Isn't it clear the true strength of the old monk? Or is there another reason?
But it's okay to really retreat to other buildings through the air corridor, wait for yourself to meet Xu You and then leave by another way, as long as you are not surrounded by a large number of mobs, it should be no problem to leave safely.
Thinking of this, Xin Yuan also breathed a sigh of relief. But at this moment, the sudden vigilance in his head was loud, and then he heard a sound of the wind breaking the wind of an object approaching rapidly, and before he had time to think about it, his body had already fallen forward with the trend, and then he rolled on the side, and then he heard a cracking sound in his ears, and in a blink of an eye, a clay pot was smashed on the ground where he was just now.
Looking back, he saw that a figure had come close at high speed, and after a small leaping action, he connected his right leg and slashed down, and there was a cracking sound in the air, like a tomahawk slashing down on his head, and the rapid wind pressure pressed on his eyes, and even directly made him feel blurry and unable to see.
In a hurry, he turned over again and came to the combined flower pot he checked in front of him, kicked with his right foot, and kicked the flower pot straight away.
Crash.
Under the terrifying force of the split, the already somewhat broken flower pots were shattered entirely, and the earth, broken branches and debris were scattered and splashed in all directions, and the sound was extremely terrifying. But this time, the future person was blocked, and Xin Yuan, who had a chance to breathe, got up violently, and the dagger on his waist was already held in his right hand.
At this time. The next attack of the comer followed, and he rushed forward directly and slammed it with his elbow, looking like he was using the most dangerous and deadly hand-to-hand combat to defeat Xin Yuan at once.
In the face of such a ferocious attack, Xin Yuan clenched the dagger and stabbed directly into the elbow that smashed over, unleashing his best military fighting technique.
Tucked in your elbows and taken a step back.
The comer reacted instantly.
But obviously forced the other party back, but Xin Yuan did not relax in the slightest, and the warning that was more urgent than before came, as if he was pressed against his throat by a knife, the exhaled breath was squeezed back into his lungs, and he didn't use his brain to give a new order, and his body had already reacted one step ahead - let go and retreat!
There was a crunch snap!
The dagger flew away in an instant, and disappeared into the invisible darkness. The speed of this kick was so fast that he couldn't catch it visually, and if he hadn't let go of the dagger in time, the hand bone would have been kicked off in an instant.
You can escape once, but you can't escape the second time.
Closing his legs, there was another crisp snap, and the opponent's right leg disappeared from his field of vision again, and it was obvious that another attack from the comer had been launched, and he was completely unable to block it this time!
At this time, a fragment suddenly flashed in Xin Yuan's mind, and when life and death were at stake, thousands of thoughts flashed in his mind, and suddenly a realization jumped out and made the ultimate move!
"Sister Zhenzhen!" His eyes widened and he shouted.
"Huh?"
A long, slender white leg stopped beside him, and at this moment, a gust of wind was about to arrive, and his hair flew scattered, and it took a while to stop.
A light appeared, illuminating Xia Zhen's face in the dimness, and also illuminating Xin Yuan's appearance.
"Xiaoyuan?"
"Sister Zhenzhen, it's me." Xin Yuan breathed a sigh of relief, but fortunately stopped, otherwise he would definitely be kicked out by this kick, and he didn't know how many bones he would break.
"How did you become like this?" Xia Zhen was surprised to put his mobile phone close to Xin Yuan's face, looking at this ragged village shirt with messy hair, thin body, and crumpled bloodstains, no matter how you look at it, it is the same category as those aboriginal thugs downstairs.
Xin Yuan brushed away his messy hair and revealed his face: "Disguise." ”
"Well, it's quite like, if I don't know, I'd really like to kick you to death." Xia Zhen saw that it was really Xin Yuan, and he was also relieved, and then looked around, and after not finding it, he hurriedly asked, "What about Xiaoyou?" ”
"She hid in the hotel room above, and I came out to see what was going on."
Hearing that even Xu Youran was fine, Xia Zhen's heart completely let go: "Then let's go find Xiao You first, and then leave this ghost place...... Hey, what's wrong with your chest? She suddenly noticed that Xin Yuan's chest was bulging, as if he had stuffed a lot of things.
"Heart goggles." Xin Yuan made up a reason without blinking his eyes, and tore open the clothes on his chest to let her see the full glass tape and the stone products behind it, which was really a bit like a temporary protective breastplate, anyway, Xia Zhen hadn't seen the auction and didn't know about this stone mask.
"Oh, you're pretty good." Xia Zhen didn't ask any more, and pulled Xin Yuan away.
Under Xin Yuan's guidance, the two came to the fire staircase.
While climbing the stairs, Xia Zhen suddenly thought that he had forgotten some questions just now because of the surprise of seeing Xin Yuan and getting Xu Youran's news, so he turned his head to look at Xin Yuan, showing an expression that seemed to be smiling: "Xiaoyuan, I found that your skills are quite good." ”
"Haha, it's a blind practice." Xin Yuan laughed dryly, and secretly said that this question was still not avoided.
"Don't be modest, I think you're very sophisticated, your dagger fighting skills are quite good, someone from the army has given you guidance."
"Haha, haha......" In addition to laughing dryly, Xin Yuan couldn't answer, he couldn't keep it at all under the life and death crisis, the flaws exposed were too big, and it was indeed not something that could be prevaricated casually. But it's okay, because his dagger fighting technique originally has a strong military fighting style, so Xia Zhen guessed that he had learned it from someone in the army, and the situation was not too bad.
"Forget it, everyone has secrets, and you're not outrageous, so I won't ask more." A hint of clarity flashed in Xia Zhen's eyes.
Call.
Facing Xia Zhen's suddenness, Xin Yuan breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, but after the next sentence, his heart suddenly lifted.
"You killed someone in front of you, didn't you?" Xia Zhen stopped, his bright eyes turned to him, reflecting the boy's face.
Xin Yuan raised his head and looked at her for a while, and his thoughts turned back and forth in an instant, and finally he took a deep breath and admitted in a deep voice: "Yes." ”
"Hmm." Xia Zhen nodded, took his hand and continued to walk up.
Xin Yuan looked at Xia Zhen strangely, her reaction made him completely confused about her train of thought for a while, and he couldn't say anything, so he could only follow her and continue to move forward.
Of course, he didn't know what Xia Zhen had experienced today, so he didn't know anything about her psychological changes, in fact, Xia Zhen treated himself as himself, and felt that Xin Yuan had just experienced a similar situation to what she had encountered in the toilet before, and he sighed a little with empathy.
After a while, she suddenly spoke again: "You apply for the police academy after graduating from middle school, and I will give you a letter of introduction." ”
"Huh?"
"That's it, it's too dangerous for you to let it go like this, if you don't do it in the future, you should take care of it, and specialize in harming criminals in the future." Xia Zhen was aggressive, so he made a decision for him.
"Huh?" Xin Yuan was dumbfounded, where and where is this? Do you want to come out of it?
"That's it, don't you want to come to the Dragon Bird Martial Arts Club to exercise? I'll help you get a place, and then you can exercise with me, and I'll give you guidance. ”
Sister's! Who's going to work out with you! Who instructs whom? Is it the same thing for me to practice on my own and under your nose? Are you stupid for me? Will you let me live this day?
Xin Yuan complained frantically in his heart, but there was an innocent expression on his face: "Sister Zhenzhen, this is too troublesome for you, isn't it?" ”
"There's no trouble, this martial arts club was opened by my uncle, it's very convenient to add you." Xia Zhen patted his chest and smiled brightly.
Seeing Xia Zhen's sunny smile, Xin Yuan only felt that the future was dark.
