Chapter 12: Awakening
Ouyang felt that he would definitely be able to stop her, this was not some unwarranted blind confidence, he was completely different from him half a day ago.
Ouyang felt the throbbing in his chest that was still guiding him, and took a step in that direction. said that it was a step, but for him who had lost the sense of distance in time and space, it was just a blind distance.
Good luck.
The area that Ouyang stepped on was colder than the world around him that was wrapped in black gas, but it was a temperature that made him extremely reassuring. In this clear world, he saw another light, perhaps this is what people often call hope.
A sword like frost and snow lay silently in the center of it all.
Ouyang Ghost picked it up like a god, and the uneasiness in his heart was instantly replaced by kindness, and even at the first moment, he pronounced a name from his mouth.
"Frost ......"
The sword body trembled slightly as if responding to him, Ouyang knew that she had awakened, and the cyan aura that was unconsciously emitted gradually dissipated, Ouyang was once again in the pure black world, only this time, he was fearless.
Han Yue's face with the corners of his mouth hooked upwards appeared in his vision, and those mysterious eyes were still intoxicating, as if it was a contemplative gentle township, of course, gentle township also has another name - Hero Mound.
"Little brother, it's better for you to give up resistance, otherwise I'll be unhappy," she said in a casual tone, pulling out the words often used by the villains in the movie, "If I'm not happy, it will make you unhappy." β
"What about the two girls lying on this side, they more or less saved my life," Ouyang looked directly at Han Yue not to be outdone, if Han Yue had any weaknesses, it must be hidden in those eyes flowing with years, "So instead of choosing to escape and regret spending the rest of your life to atone for your sins, it is easier to stand up and regret three seconds now." β
"Isn't it good to be alive?" She tilted her head, her long silver hair sweeping across her chin, and a few dim starlight jumped.
"Of course it's not good to linger," Ouyang shook his head.
"Xuanyuan and Sister Qingshuangβ" Han Yue took a few steps closer, the clatter of her round scalp shoes on the ground seemed to be a rushing clock, she stopped in front of Ouyang, not minding the strange distance that the noses of the two people could almost touch, "And everyone here is just barely breathing." β
"It's different."
"It's no different, we're still alive because some of them are gone." The universe in her eyes was not shocked, and it still maintained its original speed and rotated.
"I don't understand why."
"Why do I need both of them?" Han Yue smiled, if it weren't for this kind of fateful moment, if Han Yue wasn't standing on the opposite side of Ouyang, Ouyang would definitely give this laughter a score of 100, "Little brother, you should know what we rely on to live, right?" β
"Understand something." Ouyang only learned the truth of the inhabitants in the mountains from Xuanyuan not long ago.
"We're like a bunch of humans stranded on an island, and our food is dwindling as the climate gets worse until we can't find anything to feed our hunger," she said, adding, "and what happens after that?" β
"I'm going to starve to death."
"Until then."
"Before?"
"First of all, they will fall into panic," Han Yue patiently answered Ouyang's doubts, "Panic is like cancer, once the first one appears, it will spread irrepressibly. β
"Understandable."
"Then there will be a riot, no matter how small the social network, there will be a top-level existence, let's call him the village chief. In the panic, some people thought that the village chief must have secretly hidden the grain, some people thought that the village chief's moral corruption had angered the gods that caused the food shortage, and some people just wanted to vent their fears, and people invariably put the blame on the village chief, broke through his door, and hijacked his family. β
"But the village chief didn't deceive them, did he?"
"So they didn't get anything," Hanyue said with a mocking expression, "those who need food are hungrier, those who sacrifice the village chief's family to the heavens are more and more desperate, and those who are trying to vent are completely insane. β
"Where's the village chief?"
"No one cares about him anymore, and the village chief who can't solve the problem has no value in existing."
"Then when people are extremely hungry," Han Yue approached Ouyang's neck, leaving a row of tooth marks on it, and two drops of blood glowing with a demonic red light oozed from the place where the two tiger teeth had bitten, "People have also become food." β
"That's how we are now, devouring each other's existence, and living."
"Xuanyuan didn't tell me this," Ouyang was skeptical of this statement, "In that case, what is the point of this great enchantment?" β
"It's a prison, at least for me." Han Yue wiped the saliva on Ouyang's neck with the back of her hand, "Abandon your past, maintain a minimum of living expenses, and have nothing to do in this mountain." β
"Isn't that good?"
"Huh?"
"According to unscientific statistics, 70% of the earthlings dream of becoming a family squat who doesn't have to do anything." Ouyang took out 12 points of strength to role-play the shopping show salesman often seen on TV, "And the vast majority of the remaining 30 percent said that as long as free high-speed Wifi is provided, they can also consider joining the team of squatting at home." β
"Then which one do I or the little brother of Wifi choose?" Hanyue asked unexpectedly.
"You." Ouyang replied without hesitation.
"Liar, I'm going to be unhappy, little brother."
"You see that I grew up in a remote rural area and couldn't get through consulting, and I didn't apply for the first penguin account when I got to college, and my friends haven't reached double digits, and I've never heard Dididi's message prompt, and Weibo is even more miserable, even zombie fans don't bother to follow me, what do people like me need to do on the Internet!"
"Big liar." Hanyue puffed out her cheeks unhappily, "Obviously, I messed around with men and women on the Internet when I was in junior high school. β
"W-how do you know?" Ouyang was speechless for a while, "No, listen to my explanation!" β
"To explain is to cover up, and to cover up is to make up a story."
"Wait, isn't it ......" Ouyang looked back on his experience so far, "You haven't left since the beginning?" β
"That's right, little brother, do you think you'll be the opponent of that crazy woman who wins evil?"
"You're the only one who can come here, after all, you're the one she chose." For the first time, Han Yue lowered her head and looked at the sword in Ouyang's hand, "It's a pity that this time, it seems that she is still trusting someone else." β
"I just applied here to be a chengguan, but I didn't receive any other commissions." Ouyang remembered that the contract he signed at the beginning did not have any responsibilities other than chengguan.
"Oh?" Han Yue raised her eyebrows, "Wouldn't it be good for the little brother to continue to go back to that little broken house, maybe he will be automatically promoted to the director of the urban management bureau in two days." β
"Of course I want to go back, but I have to bring this person who wants to pay me a salary," although all the savings have been ruined by the bear child's fish intestines, Qingshuang is poorer than Ouyang, "Also, maintaining the harmony and stability of the community is also one of the responsibilities of the chengguan that cannot be shirked." β
"So, the negotiation failed?" She took a few steps back, leaving the ambiguous distance.
"It's a pity." Ouyang clenched the hilt of the sword, tensed the nerves in his body, and maintained a posture that he could draw his sword at any time.
Han Yue's fierce eyes flashed, and the galaxy in her eyes suddenly stopped, and the huge inertia brought by this abrupt visual impact made Ouyang feel the urge to vomit. The pitch-black world became the best hiding place for Cold Moon, and it was difficult for Ouyang to capture the trajectory of her shot. Of course, even if it could be seen, Ouyang's muscle contractions were far from keeping up with the speed of nerve transmission.
Han Yue's knife was very fast, like a meteor in the night sky, and it came to Ouyang's chest in an instant.
Ouyang's sword was slow, but he struck it earlier than Han Yue, as if he had predicted the landing point of her attack.
Swords and swords intersected in just the right place, and the crisp sound of metal clashing shook the tiny space, and the two men retreated back to their original distance with the force of the recoil.
Hanyue snorted dissatisfiedly.
Ouyang smiled.
"When did you find out?" Seeing the stalemate, Han Yue spoke first.
"From the beginning."
"Am I really too anxious?"
"There are usually secrets hidden in the things that are hidden." Ouyang knew that he didn't have room for pride, "It started with you covering my eyes in the morning." β
"Little brother can be selected, it's really not useless wastewood." Hanyue clapped her hands twice, "The trajectory of my attack is the trajectory of the planet in my eyes, and there were many people who were aware of this before, but they ended up staying here forever. β
"How could it be ......?"
Han Yue closed her eyes, and anyone who saw such a weak and weak girl on the street who was harmless to humans and animals would involuntarily feel like they wanted to get closer.
Ouyang closed his eyes in despair, the judgment of the trajectory was indeed his last trump card, he was like a gambler who was one step ahead but was countered by the army, holding a pair of gourds in his hands, but he didn't expect that the other party was indeed four in his hand.
However, he didn't regret it very much, although he wanted to start over, but it was more calm, it was better to be able to protect someone and die than to end up depressed in a hospital bed full of disinfectant water.
"Ten o'clock, longitudinal split, fast."
Without having time to think about it, Ouyang followed the instructions and used the strength to bite the pacifier and swung his sword down.
The sound of weapons colliding came again, and Ouyang was glad that his life was finally saved.
As for the owner of that voice, there is naturally no need to say much.
"You're finally getting up, even if it's squatting at home, you have to maintain a good routine and rest habits." Ouyang really had the urge to cry, not only because he felt the emotion for the rest of his life after the catastrophe, but also because he knew that he was no longer fighting alone, although Qingshuang was still the appearance of a sword.
"It's just a nap," Qingshuang said, "I'm nervous Overwatch." β
"It's dark now, and what the Overwatch is." Ouyang felt that he still needed a lot of time to get used to Qingshuang's inconsistencies.
"Another name for the butt, girls should speak elegantly, if I speak with an asterisk, it must be your fault."
"I said you two, flirting and scolding should also depend on the occasion." A string of black lines appeared on Hanyue's forehead.
"The heroine's appearance is not the same as you miscellaneous fish." Qingshuang said in a high-minded and unpleasant tone.
"But Qingshuang, you don't seem to have appeared a lot, are you really the heroine?" Ouyang complained.
"Shut up, there will be more in the future."
"Looks like I'm being looked down upon." Although Han Yue tried his best to control it, he couldn't help but be affected by these words, and the anger in his heart gradually rose.
"Little sister Hanyue, let me teach you what it means to respect the old and love the young," Qingshuang naturally has the capital to be proud of, "It's going to be on, Ouyang." β
"Wait, wait...... Say that the advantages of good are not waves, and the disadvantages should be coaxed! Ouyang is now being led away by the sword in his hand, which can be described as a hardship, "In addition, I can't be regarded as a young man as an adult!" β
Hanyue sighed softly.
The whole small world felt that sadness and assimilated with it. The mist-like black gas rose in unison, turning into icy raindrops that fell, converging into a stream at the foot of the cold moon. At the end of the cloud, a rainbow loomed, and then it was shattered by the sudden wind.
"The wind is sluggish and the water is cold...... even with Ouyang's half-hung academic performance, he still remembers this famous poem that has been passed down through the ages.
"Come on." The crescent-like blade of Cold Moon's grip glowed with a faint green light.
