Chapter 8: The Yellow Sparrow
There was an eerie silence in the scene, Zhou Yan and Bai Yin began to confront each other, and Youyou was still immersed in countless brain holes in his brain.
What is the relationship between Mr. Yan and this young lady? Just now, was it a kiss just now? The relationship between adults is really complicated......
No one knew that Yoyo was opening his mind at the moment. As for Zhou Yan, he just experienced the sense of steadiness brought by the long sword in his hand.
The memory seems to have returned to the distant past, although his life is only eighteen years, but it is indeed a memory that seems to have passed for a long time.
Until the age of twelve, since he chose the sword book when he was four years old, Zhou Yan had spent eight years under his mother's harsh teachings.
By the way, Zhou Yan did not choose "Dugu Nine Swords" or "Sword Spectrum to Warse Evil Spirits" at that time, he chose a book with a random inscription on the cover, "One sword is light in the world, only my sword is really invincible". Maybe those two sentences aren't the title of the book at all.
No, it's a bit far-fetched to say that it's a book, because there are neither sword moves, nor sword styles in this sword book, nor sword theory.
There are only three sheets of paper in the whole book: the cover, the contents, and the blank pages.
Two lines of words are scribbled on the content page in the middle, which are "I have no sword in my hand, and if I have a sword in my heart, I am invincible" and "If I have a sword in my hand, if I have a sword in my heart, I am invincible in the world".
And then there was nothing. At that time, when the young Zhou Yan picked up the book, which was only three pieces of paper, his mother sighed with a smile on her face.
As for Zhou Yan, after that, he lived a life that was enough for him to leave a shadow. Every day, all his spare time was left for sword practice, and he didn't even have time to make friends. At the same time, he should also pay attention to keeping it a secret from others, he has something to practice swords. As for the sword book, there are no moves or superfluous explanations, and there are just those two words that look good.
And the mother's request is very simple, at least two hours a day to repeat the recitation, even if the sentence has been deeply imprinted in the mind, it must be recited all the time.
In short, that period of time is enough to describe it in the dark, and because of this, Zhou Yan is probably a little schizophrenic, which causes the difference in temperament between having a sword and not having a sword is so big.
Take a deep breath and put all the distractions behind. So far, Zhou Yan has not understood those two sentences - as for whether it is really necessary to understand, his mother has not said it.
However, it is probably that those two sentences have been ingrained in his mind, and even seem to be brainwashed, and he naturally has an invincible mentality of looking down on the world when holding the sword.
Well, as it sounds. Zhou Yan was just brainwashed by the words he had recited since he was a child, because he didn't understand it at all, so this kind of mentality is generally "natural" for combat power.
However, because of Zhou Yan's confident appearance, Bai Yin and Youyou were still stunned.
"Absolutely, kill you meow!"
However, after a period of confrontation, Bai Yin adjusted his breathing and said a declaration to Zhou Yan. However, because of Zhou Yan's naturally outgoing invincible posture, she carefully retreated a distance and did not attack rashly.
"If you don't attack, I'll go first." Zhou Yan took a step forward, and at this moment he finally changed hands with Bai Yin's offense and defense. I have been chased and beaten before, and I can only dodge, and I have long held back my anger.
As for the girl in front of her, although she is petite and cute, there was a kiss incident between the two of them just now. But Zhou Yan can't manage so much...... Well, he still cares a little bit, so he decides to suppress the other party and then learn from the anime male protagonists to use the legendary mouth escape to bring the other party under his command.
Zhou Yan quickly approached Bai Yin, but as soon as Bai Yin's ears moved, he suddenly turned to the right and waved the short knife in his hand. And Zhou Yan was the same, when Bai Yin turned around, he had already swept the sword in his hand to the left.
After two crisp sounds, Zhou Yan and Bai Yin didn't look at the steel needle that was bounced open, and almost at the same time stepped back to widen the distance between them and each other.
"You still have a helper!"
"You still have a helper, Meow!"
The two of them questioned at the same time, and then they were stunned at the same time. It quickly became clear that the attack came from a third party.
As if in response to the two of them, the next moment, countless steel needles shot from all directions. Zhou Yan and Bai Yin could only start to dodge while swinging their weapons to sweep away these steel needles.
Ambush? Zhou Yan thought while resisting the steel needle. However, he soon rejected the ambush option, after all, he came here completely by accident, and it would be too far-fetched to say that it was an ambush.
Moreover, this attack just now was completely intended to kill him and Bai Yin at the same time. If I'm not mistaken, I'm afraid it's another god contractor who is eyeing him and Bai Yin.
I was targeted by two people at the beginning, and I don't know how proud I should be? Or should you sigh for your bad luck? The corners of Zhou Yan's mouth unconsciously hooked up a wry smile.
"Poof", this is the sound of a steel needle entering the body. Zhou Yan, who was shot by a steel needle because of distraction, couldn't help but pound his heart.
This thing isn't poisonous, is it? That's all he has in his head right now. But now he can't stop to confirm, even if he doesn't quench the poison, he will be shot into a hedgehog with a steel needle. And if the poison is quenched, then he will only make the poison spread faster in order to resist the steel needle from being shot into a hedgehog, and he will die in the end.
I can only pray that there is no quenching anymore. As if to vent the depression in his heart, Zhou Yan's movements accelerated, and he was not shot by a steel needle until the steel needle rain ended.
As for Bai Yin on the other side, she is also very wolf, but because she is petite and more agile, she has not been shot by a steel needle except for the extra opening in the skirt on her body.
The two glanced at each other, both gasping for breath, and Zhou Yan was about to pull out the steel needle on his shoulder when he suddenly heard a leisurely exclamation.
When he turned around, he saw a man dressed in dark green and black with a dagger in his hand, rushing towards him.
At first glance, the face of the man with black hair was too pale, but the eyes were firm, as determined as if he had acted correctly at the moment.
Although it can be seen from the pace of the other party that it is a person who has not practiced martial arts. But the other party's timing was very accurate, so that at this time, Zhou Yan could only watch the other party get closer and closer to him. Zhou Yan tried his best to defend, but he knew it was too late.
Bai Yin didn't have to count on it, how could she, who was already an enemy, come to the rescue of Zhou Yan? Now there is only one person that Zhou Yan can look forward to.
"Thunder!" As if responding to Zhou Yan's expectations, a leisurely voice sounded.
At the same time, a thunderbolt sounded behind Zhou Yan, and the man who rushed forward was forced by this sudden lightning to give up the attack and roll to the side.
Whether it was this thunder or a leisurely sound, Zhou Yan sounded like heaven at this moment. Although he had met Yoyo for less than a day, it was great that he had met her for the first time.
The next moment when the man was forced back by the yoyo magic, Zhou Yan heard the whistling wind in his ears, Bai Yin did not let go of this opportunity, she pounced on Zhou Yan who turned her back on her because she wanted to defend against the man who suddenly appeared.
Thinking of what Zhou Yan had done to her before, her heart couldn't stop surging with murderous intent.
"Kill you meow!"
"I'm really a bully!"
Although Zhou Yan was forced by the situation to become the target of attack from both sides, it was not that he seemed to be the weakest one (probably). However, it still made Zhou Yan hold back his anger in his heart.
"What a meow!"
Bai Yin let out an exclamation in disbelief, because Zhou Yan didn't turn back at all, but stabbed back from the sword under his armpit, and the tip of the sword just hit the tip of her knife. The force at the place where the weapons collided made her arms can't help but raise her back, and Zhou Yan's feet slid half a circle on the ground without leaving the ground, and he slashed with a sword from the other direction when he twisted his waist.
"Bloodstained!" In a hurry, Bai Yin could only grit his teeth for the third time to make the bleeding bad, and the girl who was dyed red forcibly pulled up half a foot in the air to avoid the pitch-black long sword that Zhou Yan swept by.
The two air-breaking sounds sounded when Zhou Yan and Bai Yin were fighting, and then they were covered up in Bai Yin's momentum of using blood. For attacking two people at the same time, Bai Yin and Zhou Yan showed some tacit understanding, the two collided with their fists and feet, and dodged the steel needles to both sides with the help of reaction force.
"Get in the way!" Bai Yin made a violent sound, and she attacked the unknown man at a terrifying speed without relieving the blood damage.
When the white sound struck, the man only had time to make one movement, which was to release his left hand. A ball crashed into the ground in free fall as soon as he let go.
The sound of "bang", I don't know if it was the man who was hit by the white sound or the sound of the ball exploding. Almost instantly, the area was covered in a large amount of smoke. In the smoke, Zhou Yan vaguely heard the man's muffled snort.
"Ahem, Yo-Yo? Long! Seeing nothing in the smoke, Zhou Yan could only call out loudly to confirm Youyou's location.
"Yan, Mr. Yan, ahem...... I am here. Yoyo quickly responded to Zhou Yan.
With the previous impression and the guidance of Youyou's voice, Zhou Yan groped his way to Youyou's side. He pulled the steel needle from his shoulder and bandaged it briefly. Then he and Yoyo guarded the surroundings.
It wasn't until a few minutes had passed that the smoke cleared. Zhou Yan looked at the location where the man was before, and there was only a pool of blood in place. And Bai Yin stood there, staring at Zhou Yan tightly after the smoke cleared.
"Next time, kill you Meow! Meow by all means! Bai Yin stared at Zhou Yan coldly, and after making this declaration, he began to retreat, and then slowly disappeared into the forest.
However, whether it was Zhou Yan or Youyou, the two did not relax, but remained vigilant. It wasn't until a long time passed that it was confirmed that there were indeed no enemies around. Youyou breathed a sigh of relief, but she found that Zhou Yan was still motionless, standing a little stiffly.
"So, that, Mr. Yan?" Youyou thought that Zhou Yan was seriously injured, and couldn't help but ask with some worry.
"I'm fine." Zhou Yan shook his head, and then showed a smile that was more ugly than crying: "That, Yoyo, can you, please...... That, can you please help me, I'm ...... I can't move......"
"Huh!" Yoyo let out a surprised voice and looked at Zhou Yan in puzzlement.
"So...... It's the first time I've experienced this kind of life-and-death battle, and now, I'm so scared that when I relax, my body doesn't listen to the command at all......"
"Eh!!!!" Yoyo's voice of surprise resounded through the forest.
