Chapter 17: Two Sides Together
In the evening tutoring, the two didn't know whether they were intentional or unintentional, their eyes always collided, and the two of them avoided each other in shame at the same time, lest the other party knew that they were looking at each other;
In the midst of the shame, there seems to be a lot more frankness.
There was a quiet self-study in the classroom, and the silent eyes of the two quietly inserted into each other's hearts.
"Do you like Liu Qianwen?" Bai Luo, who was at the same table as Han Xu, couldn't help but ask in a low voice when he saw the charm between the two of them, which couldn't be blocked by several positions.
"Huh?"
"Everyone knows what happened at the school gate, is it true?" Bai Luo looked surprised, obviously a little unacceptable.
For a girl like Liu Qianwen, whoever falls will become the object of jealousy.
"So you really like Han Xu? You didn't even tell me. At the same time that Bai Luo asked Han Xu, Liu Qianwen's best friend Zheng Yun'er also noticed that something was wrong with the two, and asked in Liu Qianwen's ear.
Liu Qianwen looked at the desk and nodded shyly, "Hmm." ”
"Now start the lessons. The teacher walked into the classroom and silenced all the whispers.
However, all the gossip and discussion turned into a series of eyes, and fell on Han Xu and Liu Qianwen along with the teacher's gaze.
......
After the tutoring, it was close to eleven o'clock, under the secret encouragement of Wang Yanyan, Han Xu sent Liu Qianwen back to her house alone, in order to cut off Han Xu's back road, Wang Yanyan turned around and rode away on an electric car, and the chubby figure quickly disappeared into the night.
"I'll send you back. "Han continued to be cornered.
"Huh?" Liu Qianwen puffed out her cheeks slightly, "Oh." ”
Beautiful girls always have a lot of friends, girlfriends are even more indispensable, Liu Qianwen's best friend Zheng Yuner was inseparable from Liu Qianwen in the past, but today she secretly ran back first, and Han Xu and Liu Qianwen walked alone on this road again.
Han Xu was wearing a black short shirt, and Liu Qianwen was wearing white short sleeves, one black and one white, both walking side by side on this familiar road a little timidly.
"How did you do today?" asked Liu Qianwen nonchalantly.
"It's fine. What about you. ”
"Well, it's fine. ”
......
"We didn't seem to have dinner. ”
Han Xu felt a hint of hunger, "It seems to be." ”
The small talk between the two along the way seemed different from the past, there was not a word, it was as chaotic as two random collisions between two deer, and the content of the conversation was also rambling, without a backbone, but it seemed to be a little heavier because of some other color.
As the night school students arrived home or changed routes, the voices around the two became smaller and smaller, and the already soft conversations were infinitely gentle against the backdrop of the quiet air.
The road was originally quite long, but it seemed to be very short, and it didn't take long for Han Xu to reach the bottom of her community.
"I hope you don't mind, what my dad said. Liu Qianwen apologized again.
"It's fine. ”
It's not just words, Han Xu is really not too relieved, if it was an ordinary teenager, maybe his self-esteem wouldn't let him let this go on, but he wasn't an ordinary teenager, not at all.
A patrolling police car drove by, and the originally beautiful and exquisite police car was driving all over the slum full of yellow mud, like a hardcover girl who fell into the field.
"I ......" Liu Qianwen hung her head and rubbed her toes.
"I don't mind everything my dad says, I like you, and I'm willing to face anything with you......"
Han Xu laughed and touched her head.
There was no shortage of action in the past, and this time is more beautiful than ever.
"I know. Han continued to say softly, "So everything, let me face it." ”
Liu Chen brewed in a shallow pear vortex, the strange color bloomed in his eyes and then converged into his heart, raised his head, and then nodded heavily, "Hmm!"
"Then I...... Went first. Liu Qianwen stood downstairs and waved her hand to Han Xu.
"Hmm. ”
"Well, will you pick me up tomorrow?"
After the bride's red hijab was lifted, she was not only faced with the delicate you and me when the hijab was lifted at night, but also the subsequent life of you and me.
"Uh-huh!" Han Xu looked at her frank and clear eyes, and after being stunned, he smiled and nodded.
"Well, I'll be waiting for you here at seven o'clock that night, don't ...... Don't eat. ”
"Oh, yes. ”
"I'm leaving. ”
"Okay, goodbye. Han Xu smiled and watched her walk upstairs, a little sweet and empty in his heart, until her figure disappeared into the corner of the red corridor light, and then turned to leave.
Liu Qianwen didn't leave the corner of the corridor, stayed in the corner for a few seconds and then withdrew, seeing that Han Xu had only his back, the shallow pear vortex on his pretty face was brewed with a smile, and then turned his head and ran upstairs;
......
Liu Baiyuan stood by the window in the room, looked at the figure of Han Xu who disappeared into the night, and silently lit a cigarette.
If he knew that his cold words would become the red rope for the two of them to lift the veil, maybe he wouldn't take the initiative to say those words. But it's too late to think about it.
He always felt that this young man was a little different, but he couldn't figure out what the difference was.
But I know that trouble may be coming.
......
It was close to midnight, and the road fell into almost complete dead silence. The low street lights in the slums are extinguished at 12 o'clock, and a curfew is imposed, so the pace of the cold is accelerated, and if they are caught after the curfew, they will be arrested for filing and processed.
That is, to do hard labor.
This is not what he is afraid of, but on the surface, as an ordinary low-class citizen, he must fully abide by the rules of the slums, and now that he is preparing to enter the college entrance examination, he really has no energy to face other disasters.
Han Xu looked down at the palm of his hand that had pulled Liu Qianwenhao's wrist earlier, the palm print on his hand seemed to have turned into a red line of Dao Dao Yue, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but smile.
Looking back at the black curtain and the night light outlined high and low houses, the dome and the earth are connected, so deep throat, the slightest carelessness will fall into its belly like this city, thinking of this, his back is slightly numb.
"Work hard!" clenched his fists, thinking of the more and more things he had on his shoulders, these two words seemed a little heavier.
Walking to the stone road on both sides of the golden rice, this is the only way for him to go home, and the golden on both sides is the success of some low-class people in a year's work. After turning his head to make sure that there were no patrolling troops around him, and there were no other people on this narrow road, Han Xu's body quietly tensed, his steps did not stop, but his eyes slowly closed.
On the narrow dirty road outlined by light and dark black and white, his originally natural and ordinary steps quietly added a melody, and as soon as his feet landed, the dust on the ground seemed to tremble at a different height.
After a few steps, it can be found that his steps are brisk and maintain a constant frequency, no more and no less, the hands of the alarm clock are generally accurate, and the distance of each step is also measured as well, maintaining a fixed length.
This is easy to say, but it is extremely difficult to do, which requires an accurate grasp of time, an accurate grasp of the body, and an accurate judgment to the extreme.
At the same time, his breathing became extremely slight, every time he exhaled, the air instantly drilled from the lungs into the internal organs, the whole person's skin was a little faintly bulging, and with the exhalation and then slightly calmed down, his body reached a tacit understanding with the air, so that the two were in an orderly manner in some kind of communication and communication.
There is joy in the depths of his heart, so his fingers can't help but sketch something slightly, if you look carefully and contact, you will find that it is a card pattern.
The card pattern is the same as the text, except that the latter is communication, and the former is to show great power, but the card pattern outlined by different strokes will indeed change substantially like the text. What Han Xu drew like a beat in his hand was the most basic one-star Xuanka - the card pattern of the pneumatic card.
This is his practice, and he treats walking as a practice, and it is a walk of the two paths.
Practice all the time.
Walking through this paddy field, the trajectory of the wind around him seemed to be driven by him, still blowing gently, but it seemed that it did not fall on him again, but flowed around him.
"Lingfeng Divine Spectrum".
This lost martial art embodies in him the tip of the iceberg that shook the might of the Federation back then.
With the silent movement of the core heart sutra of the Ling Feng Divine Spectrum in his heart, the vitality traveled through the specific meridians, and in the cold perception, the card pattern outlined in his hand began to change unconsciously. Like a painter's impromptu painting, it was not initially controlled, but came randomly, from the familiar to him to the lines he had never seen or heard of, and even had something in common with the martial arts that the vitality in his body was running.
Faintly, there is a fresh breeze around the fingertips.
Han Xu's eyes suddenly opened, and he looked at his hands in surprise.
The creation of many things will have traces of the rest of the same kind, because people are always imperceptibly affected by the things they come into contact with, and these influences are hidden deeply, and they may not be able to realize it, but Han Xu clearly knows that the card pattern he is sketching now is completely random by himself, and there are no other traces of similar card patterns, not even the iconic "wind pattern tail" that is common to wind attribute card patterns.
"What's going on?"
Han continued to be surprised.
However, he did not let his steps stop or change, but still moved forward calmly, after so many years of training, he looked ordinary young under the skin, but there was an extremely strong heart.
The pattern in his hand had not been completely formed, and he could not completely condense into a complete pattern, but he clearly sensed that the pattern drawn was inextricably linked to the Ling Feng Divine Spectrum operating in his body.
This is undoubtedly a shocking thing, but Han Xu is not in a hurry, as he takes step by step, he begins to gradually try to find out the whole picture of his improvised card pattern.
After so many years of intrusion on the card, he doesn't need to mention the degree of understanding of the card, even if he has not been able to make the card, but the memory ability of the card pattern in his brain has been extended to the level beyond rote memorization, so it is just improvised, but he can't forget it at all.
But it was like an iceberg that had spread out the corner, and although he knew the exposed parts well, he could no longer figure out the rest.
He was not discouraged, he vaguely felt that he seemed to be able to break through the door of card making, and even open a different door.
Of course, people always have delusions, and he can't guarantee that they are not delusions.
After completely passing through this rice field, all the clouds and mist are still there, and he does not open another gate like destiny, everything is still as usual.
Just as he frowned slightly, his phone suddenly clicked.
The invisible aura emanating from his body gradually dispersed, and Han Xu exhaled a long breath, but for such a journey, there was already a shallow sweat on his forehead when two fellow practitioners were studying a mysterious path at the same time.
Exhaled and took out the black ordinary feature phone, looked at the caller ID, and answered the call.
"It's on the way back. ”
"You're going so slowly, don't come back!" Wang Yanyan's voice was a little resentful.
Han Xu's voice tightened slightly, and after looking around, he flashed into the darkness on one side, and whispered, "What's wrong?"
His gnashing teeth could be heard over the phone, "Don't come back if you have a girlfriend, how good it is to sleep in the same bed with your girlfriend." ”
“......”
"You really make me feel like you're gay, you're jealous. Han Xu looked at his shadow and sneered.
"Phew, get out!" Wang Yanyan scolded viciously, "Don't come to disgust me, Lao Tzu hates you for not being a bachelor anymore!
After saying that, he hung up the phone.
Han Xu shook his head and hurried home.
It seems like a simple call, but in fact, both of them understand what it means. Over the years of growing up together, they have almost witnessed each other's deaths countless times, and these experiences have really bound the two together, so making sure that the other party is alive has become each other's habits since many years ago.
Two teenagers who are about to become adults, these mutual care seems rough, but in fact it is heart-warming to the point of disgusting, but for them, the matter of being alive is more than any strange vision, and anyone who has experienced their lives will not feel that their care for each other is superfluous.
......
After going back, Wang Yanyan was already asleep, snoring high and low, a big character lying on the bed, dreaming of something messy, Han Xu listened to it and it seemed to be related to money.
Help him turn off the lights, boil water and make a bag of instant noodles, and after simply satisfying himself, he turned off the lights in all rooms without washing, and then went directly into his basement.
He turned on the light in the basement and immediately pulled out his card-making tools from the box.
These tools are the most preliminary card-making tools, and the real card-making master needs far more than these, and they are far more high-end than this, but their essence is the same, and these basic equipment have never been made into any real combat significance in the hands of Han Xu for so many years.
Putting the source gold card on the table, Han Xu's eyes were pious, like a believer.
This time, it was not any one-star card that he had practiced making in the past, but a corner of the unique card he had created on the way back.
A little nervous and nervous, holding the titanium pen, Han continued to make cards again.
People are always lucky, and they think that anything may be said, Han Xu has always been a realist, and he doesn't believe in these so-called metaphysics, but in the field of card making where he has always hit a wall, he still always believes in the existence of miracles.
However, when he mentioned the titanium pen, he realized that there was no miracle at all.
The lines of the corner of the Xuanka in his mind are extremely clear, but he doesn't know how to outline it, just like a person who has a spectacular picture in his mind, meticulous to the extreme, but he can't draw half of the taste when he lifts the pen. Han continued to hold the titanium pen, and after several strokes, the ink on the bottom of the card could not form a card pattern, and could only be changed into a random pattern.
Han continued to frown, not wanting to give up, and after several attempts, he scrapped three card bottoms before he was discouraged and dropped the titanium pen.
"Stupid. ”
He lay back in his chair and laughed at himself.
He has read a lot of books about the manufacture of Xuanka, and also went to the Internet to check some teaching materials, although they are all superficial, but the manufacture of a one-star Xuanka does not require too much technology, if it is a truly talented Xuanka master, this is just the threshold of the way to make a card, what Han Xu has learned is basically enough to make a one-star Xuanka, but he has always failed.
In the past, although he failed to make cards, he was basically able to condense some of them, but today there is no trace of success at all, and frustration is inevitable.
Han Xu found a few more source gold card bottoms, trying to try a few more times, the card pattern was too mysterious for him, and he was really unwilling to give up.
Xuanka has always been just Xuanka, and the Xuanka that bursts out with terrifying power has never had any connection with martial arts, but the corner of Xuanka he conceived today can match his Lingfeng Divine Spectrum, which makes him can't help but be fascinated.
He had never seen a hook between the Martial Arts Society and the Xuanka in any book or any article, the essence of the Yuan Qi and the essence of the Xuanka were completely different, and the results achieved were completely different, but tonight's accidental discovery made him seem to have discovered a new world.
After another failure, just when he was about to fall asleep, there was a sudden roar of a motorcycle rushing through the door.
The sound was loud and heavy, from far and near, and soon flashed past their house, and the walls of the basement trembled faintly with the roar of the motorcycle.
In this extremely quiet land, such a sound is particularly abrupt, shattering all the calm into pieces.
If you listen closely, you will find more than one, and there is also a faint rumble in the distance, in addition to the roar of motorcycles, there is also the roar of cars.
He looked at the clock on the wall, half past twelve in the morning, it was already curfew time, and it was already extremely abnormal to walk outside at this time.
Han continued to turn off the lamp, and the people flew like night cats, and it only took six or seven seconds to come to the roof balcony of their two-story building, standing on the edge of the balcony, looking at the narrow stone road in the dark; there were two convoys chasing each other on the road, four or five motorcycles in front, and two motorcycles in the rear, and a federally produced car "Kaixue" that could only be purchased by fourth-class people, which was a new SUV launched three years ago.
The two teams rushed forward and one after the other, speeding through the road of the slum by day and at night.
"One elementary eighth grade, three elementary third grades, and the second team in the back two elementary seventh grades, two elementary third grades, and two elementary fourth grades. Behind is the car of the Tianhuo Society, who is in front?" Wang, who was originally asleep, walked from behind him, looking in the direction of the car that had already driven out of their alley.
He was wearing a white cow's pajamas, which looked a little funny, but his solemn face did not make people feel funny.
Han Xu squinted, looked at a twinkling star in the sky and said: "The light is not good, but a few figures are a little familiar, plus the category of motorcycles, if you guess correctly, it is a flying wolf." ”
Wang Yanyan touched his chin and said, "The Flying Wolf has always been the largest secret organization in the Fengdu Slum over the years, and the protection fee is mainly collected by them, I remember that the noodle shop you worked before was these guys collecting protection money, right?"
Han Xu nodded.
Wang Yanyan propped his hands on the wall of the balcony and sneered: "The Tianhuo Society is actually starting to attack the flying wolf, it seems that this year it is planning to completely take over the Fengdu slum." ”
Han continued to think for a while and said, "Not necessarily, it may just be a personal grudge, this battle is not quite like a big struggle between the two sides, nor can it be a fight between the two sides." ”
The struggle for survival between the dark organizations, like the current struggle for political power and the battle between the kamikaze and the holy land, is not as simple as "whoever has the most power, and if he wins, he wins", and there are many constraints and frameworks, so it is impossible for Rao to do whatever he wants in the underground of Wanyu City.
In the most chaotic city in the Diling Province, the battle is far more complicated than people think.
The entire Fengdu slum was silent, except for the sound of engines heading into the distance. Han Xu looked at the west side where the two teams were coming and said, "Such a big movement is speeding at the curfew moment, and the night patrol police have not been alarmed, they should have just started chasing." ”
Han Xu added: "The inspection of commercial areas is strict, not to mention the rich areas, so many prohibited places are built in slums. ”
Wang Yan nodded.
"There is the largest underground casino in the Fengdu slum, and it is basically the largest casino in the entire east of the city, and the number of people fighting between the two organizations will not be so small, so it should be a personal grudge, which may be related to gambling money. ”
Hearing the word money, Wang's eyes flashed, and he directly agreed with Han Xu's guess, and his words became excited: "Then should we do it?" They must have money after gambling. It seems to have been more than a year since the last time someone secretly moved the flying wolf...... Last time, I stole the wallet of a flying wolf hall master, not to mention, I still have the photo of the beautiful woman in his wallet. ”
The more Wang Yanyan spoke, the more excited he became, and said, "Do you want to do it?!"
"I said before that it's quieter. Han continued.
"It's meat that flies to your mouth! It's not just about money, who knows when the next golden opportunity will be?"
Han continued to shake his head.
Wang Yan's eyes were dejected, and he looked at Han Xu with resentment, and the farther the roar of the engine went, as if the banknotes in front of him flew out, and the hatred buried in his heart was also haunted in his heart.
Han Xu looked at him with a disappointed gaze and said in a deep voice, "Wait for them to drive farther away, don't leave the danger in our area." By the way, what is it. ”
Wang's eyes were ecstatic, and he saw the warm battle intent before every move in Han Xu's eyes, and said in a low voice: "Okay, okay, let's go, change clothes! I know that you guy can't hold it! Last time, you had to kill Lin Lang's stupid person by hiding it from me, how can there be a reason not to eat the meat that was sent to your mouth! Hahaha!"
By the way, which side are we going to fight?"
"Let's see if we can beat it first, and if we can beat it, we will fight it. ”
"Where's that?"
Han Xu touched his nose and said, "Both sides together." ”
PS: Six thousand four, reluctant to cut. If you really don't like such a big chapter, next time cut it into two parts
