Chapter Eighty-Three: Duel in the Rain
A few dazzling lightning flashes, and Li Yan's heart was like the dark and heavy sky outside the window.
"It's okay, Yangmeimei will definitely not do that."
Despite this, Li Yan found that he didn't even believe in these words, and said them as if he was just to comfort his fragile heart.
There was a quick knock at the door, and Yang Meimei, who was cooking rice, stopped stir-frying in confusion.
"It's not yet nine o'clock, and my mother shouldn't have come back yet, if she had come back early, she would have said it when she called just now?"
Despite her doubts, Yangmei opened the door.
As soon as the door was opened, several men in police uniforms immediately broke in.
I saw that the leader took out a document and shook it in front of Yang Meimei's eyes, and it didn't matter if Meimei saw it clearly, she said, "We are the police, don't worry", and then left one person, and the others went to all parts of the house, as if searching for something.
The police? Why are the police here?
Yang Meimei never thought that she would see the police in this situation, and out of the natural fear and respect for the police wipe, Yang Meimei's body kept trembling.
"That, Mr. Policeman, why...... Yes! ”
Yang Meimei originally wanted to ask what happened to the policeman who stayed with her, but when she turned her head, she found that the policeman was already lying on the ground, and standing there was Li Yan with a hideous face.
"Li Yan? What's going on? Are those police officers looking for you? Yang Meimei's gaze quickly turned back and forth between Li Yan and the policeman who fell to the ground, and finally, Yang Meimei gritted her teeth, "Li Yan, while the police haven't found you yet, run away!" ”
In the end, Yang Meimei made a move that surprised even herself, and she planned to help Li Yan escape.
"Although I don't know what happened, something must have gone wrong, Li Yan, you can't be the kind of person who will break the law"
Yang Meimei took Li Yan's hand and walked towards the door, but after pulling for a long time, Yang Meimei found that she couldn't pull Li Yan at all.
"Yang Meimei, have you made enough trouble?" Li Yan looked at Yang Meimei with a hideous face.
"I don't understand what you're talking about?" Yang Meimei looked at Li Yan suspiciously, but as soon as she finished speaking, a huge force grabbed her throat and pushed her against the wall.
"Liar, you big liar!" Li Yan's tears flowed, "You must already know what happened, right?" The reason why you do this to me is to call the police, right? I believe in you so much, I believe in you so much, why? ”
"I didn't, I didn't call the police, I just answered my mother's call, and I didn't tell my mother your name." Yangmei Mei also wants to explain.
"Enough!"
A huge force passed from Li Yan's arm to Yang Meimei's body.
Li Yan seemed to feel something, let go of the hand holding Yang Meimei, Yang Meimei's body slipped off the wall as if there were no bones, and a blood mark appeared on the wall behind Yang Meimei's head.
"I didn't mean it, I really didn't mean it." Li Yan looked at his hands blankly, "I'm just, I'm just too angry, I never thought of hurting you, let alone killing you." ”
Why is this happening? Why is the tragedy repeating itself again? Why are things so familiar?
"Ahh
Li Yan held his head, screamed in pain, turned around and jumped out from the balcony of the house.
In Yang Meimei's blurred vision, seeing Li Yan screaming in pain, she wanted to reach out, hug Li Yan, and tell Li Yan that she was fine, and she didn't blame her.
But what his eyes saw became more and more blurry, and the outstretched hand, no matter how hard he tried, couldn't reach Li Yan.
“……”
The screams of the police uncles were heard in her ears, and Yang Meimei felt that she was being picked up.
"Li Yan, I really didn't tell anyone about you."
Finally, Yangmei Mei lost all consciousness.
"Haha, haha, haha." Li Yan laughed maniacally as he ran, "Why does the tragedy always have to happen again?" Why did I kill my most important person again? ”
The rain fell on Li Yan's body, and thunder flashed, illuminating Li Yan's pale and sad face.
"Thief God! Why do this to me? Li Yan cried out with a "whin", "I obviously just want a little warmth, but all I want is a trace of trust, but why?" This is going to happen again? ”
The dark and heavy night sky didn't answer Li Yan's words, but the rain kept falling.
Is the rain falling from the sky a mercy from heaven? Li Yan didn't know, but Li Yan felt that these rains were more like God's ridicule of him, mocking his incompetence and mocking his cowardice.
"It's just the time for a meal, from now on, I will leave Nanyuan City, I will no longer care about the affairs of the gods and soul beasts, and I will start a new life, just a meal."
Li Yan banged on the wall frantically, and because he didn't have the ability to use it, Li Yan's hands were bloody and blurry.
"Once again, I have lost the most important person, and I have once again fallen into the abyss of despair."
"Who? Who else do you want? Who else can I rely on now? Who else can you trust? No matter how much I struggle, what awaits me is a deeper, darker despair? ”
"What I want is obviously so small, and what I want is obviously just that little bit of insignificant warmth."
"Why? ……”
Li Yan's tears slid down his cheeks along with the rain.
"Li Yan, the path you are going to take cannot be changed from the beginning." You's voice echoed in Li Yan's ears.
"Shut up!" Li Yan shouted in a low voice.
"The salvation you have been waiting for will not come, just like me, there is only darkness on the road ahead, and there is only one person on the way." You said with emotion.
"What do you know? Someone like you, blinded by hatred and with nothing but killing and hatred in his heart, won't understand my current feelings. ”
"It's you who really don't understand me!" You's words seemed to have passed through the void and reached Li Yan's heart, "I have also been confused, but there is no salvation in front of us, our eyes cannot see the light, and some are just dazzling and untouchable suns. ”
"I'm different from you."
"Yangmeimei? Do you really like her that much? ”
"Of course, she's the one I love the most."
"Really? You thought so before you met me, when you didn't experience all this pain? ”
"What do you mean?"
"You're just using her as a last straw, and it turns out that straw is straw after all."
"Not really."
"Now you are like a drowning person, no matter who it is, as long as that person stretches out his arm towards you, you will hold on desperately."
"That's not right! How can a guy like you understand my love for Yangmeimei? ”
"Love? Is there such a thing in the world? Are you sure you have love for bayberry? Are you sure it's love that doesn't contain any impurities? ”
"There is no such thing as true flawless love."
"I can feel that your heart is full of pain."
"Hehe, now start pretending to be a good person? Isn't that the ending you want? ”
“…… That's right, this is the ending I hope for now, but now I regret it very much, I regret choosing this path, and I regret giving you strength. ”
"Haha, you finally admit it."
"I knew from the beginning that I was going to regret it."
“…… So why? ”
"Because the flaws of soul beasts are unavoidable, if I act according to my own wishes, failure is inevitable."
“…… I can't understand it. ”
Li Yan looked at the sky sadly, knowing that he would regret it, but did he still have to choose the path?
I wouldn't have done that, and if I had known that it would end like this, I would never have accepted you in the first place, Yo.
But ah, I don't hate you, because it's not your fault, you just gave me strength very simply, and all the choices are made by me.
Obviously, I was happy to name you "You", because I felt that you were my talisman, my luck, and that you were a gift from God, but why is fate so tricky?
Slaughter? Destroy Dragon Yao? Kill all the worshippers? If that's what you want, I'll do it for you.
That's right, I don't have a goal to live anymore, I have no hope of living, so why not help you?
“……”
Happy, right? Bless.
“……”
Finally, your efforts have paid off, and I have embarked on the path you hoped for, as you thought.
“……”
It's okay, I don't hate you at all, really, if you want to hate, I will only hate myself.
“……”
Who will be killed first? The one who worships God?
"Is that you?"
An unfamiliar voice came into Li Yan's ears, and when he turned his head, what appeared behind him was Qi Gao holding an umbrella.
I didn't expect it to happen so soon.
"You're the one that night, aren't you? My name is Qi Gao. Qi Gao held the umbrella, step by step, and approached Li Yan carefully.
Qi Gao? Worshippers? You will be the first worshipper to die at my hands.
A cold light flashed in Li Yan's eyes, and a powerful force filled his whole body.
Li Yan's body and Qi Gao staggered, and Qi Gao's umbrella broke in two.
"Listen to me, I'm not here to fight, I know you have a hard time, you can tell me, I will help you." Qi Gao still had no intention of fighting, he didn't even take out the oracle.
Li Yan clenched his fists, and the strength in his body continued to rise.
"The first time, seeing that you didn't transform, let you go, and next time, you won't be so lucky."
Qi Gao threw away the half of the umbrella in his hand, completed his transformation, and took out the oracle.
"Hehe, that's right."
"I don't want to kill you."
"You think you can kill me? Don't be too arrogant! ”
Li Yan turned around again and rushed towards Qi Gao, but when he rushed in front of Qi Gao, Li Yan didn't know when, his body had been hit hard by Qi Gao a few times and fell to the ground.
Li Yan wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and got up from the ground.
"It's useless, haven't you noticed? What is the difference between the two of us? ”
"Shut up!"
Li Yan rushed towards Qi Gao again, and again, before he could see it clearly, he was knocked to the ground by Qi Gao.
"Give it up."
"Worshippers!"
Li Yan yelled, simply didn't stand up, and attacked Qi Gao on the ground.
Again, Li Yan was hit hard and fell to the ground, and he didn't know how many bones were broken on his body.
It hurts, it hurts, why does it hurt so much?
Looking up at Qi Gao who walked in front of him, looking at Qi Gao's eyes of pity and sadness.
"I don't need your mercy!"
shouted, but before he could even touch Qi Gao's clothes, he was knocked away.
Why is this happening? My strength, my speed, everything, I'm not weaker than him, but why? Will I lose so badly?
"I'll help you." Qi Gao stretched out his hand towards Li Yan.
Will you help me? Will you really help me?
Li Yan looked at Qi Gao's outstretched hand blankly, and for a moment, he actually had an urge to hold it.
"Smack!"
Li Yan slapped Qi Gao's hand away and rushed towards Qi Gao again.
Why is this always the case? Why can't I even touch the corner of his clothes? I'm going to kill him like this? Want to destroy Long Yao? Kill all the devotees?
"Haha, haha, ridiculous, ridiculous, haha, haha."
Li Yan laughed maniacally.
"Yo, give me strength!"
"Haha, do you finally want power?" After listening to Li Yan's words, You seemed to be very happy.
Qi Gao couldn't help frowning when he looked at Li Yan's crazy smile, and when he saw that the soul power emanating from Li Yan's body was growing at a geometric rate, Qi Gao's face finally changed greatly.
"Whew-"
Qi Gao seemed to hear a gust of wind whistling past him, and several deep scratches appeared on his body.
Looking at Li Yan, who didn't know how many times his strength and speed had increased.
"Don't be wrong again and again!"
"Wrong? Haha, you don't know how happy I am right now. ”
Li Yan's figure disappeared again, attacking Qi Gao.
This time, Qi Gao had to deal with it with all his might, because Li Yan's strength was too great, and the advantages brought by his skills were no longer so obvious.
"Humph! In that case, don't blame me for being ruthless. ”
Qi Gao held the oracle tightly and didn't care so much.
"Die!"
Accompanied by Li Yan's roar, the figures of Qi Gao and Li Yan continued to intertwine, and the dull sound of blows continued to echo around them.
"The power of the soul beast has brought you so much pain, why do you still use it?"
“……”
"If you want, someone can help you get the soul beast out."
"Die!"
"If you want power,...... No problem, that person would have preferred that to be the case. ”
Yes, alms should prefer to give strength to others rather than to take power from others.
"Shut up, shut up, shut up!" Li Yan stopped, "You don't know anything about it, how can someone like you know my pain?" ”
Li Yan's strength actually climbed again, and the wind generated when he ran actually cut through the rain, opening up a passage in the rain.
"I don't understand, but—"
Qi Gao held the oracle in both hands and closed his eyes, and when he opened them again, his pupils turned scarlet.
"Even if I chop off your limbs, I'm going to take you back!"
"Die—"
"Ahh
The two roared, and with all their strength, rushed towards each other.
The surrounding rain was disturbed by their forces, and they fled from them.
Finally, time began to flow again, and the rain fell on them again.
Li Yan's hands ran through Qi Gao's chest.
