Chapter 13: Entering the Demonic Barrier (3)
Lu Bu's Fang Tian painting halberd swept past Xiahou Xuan's side, and suddenly a strong storm was stirred.
Xiahoudun hurriedly squatted down to protect Chen Xuan, who was unconscious in his arms. After the storm passed, Xiahoudun looked sideways behind him, and saw a ragged girl-shaped spell spirit behind him being cut in half from his right shoulder to his left waist and falling to the ground, and then turned to ashes.
"The abominable Demon Barrier Array always gives me a sense of detachment!" Lu Bu's voice was deep and magnetic, "I really regret not letting Chen Gong follow up." ”
Xiahoudun was stunned. Although he had heard that Lu Bu's bravery was unparalleled in the world, he had only heard that after all, his previous work had no intersection with Lu Bu, and when he saw it with his own eyes today, he truly realized Lu Bu's strength. Looking at everything in front of him, Xiahoudun breathed a sigh of relief, knowing that Fang Cai was thinking too much.
Lu Bu squatted down on one knee, looked at the injuries on Xiahoudun's body, and said, "Team leader Xiahou, are you okay?" ”
"Captain Lu!" Xiahoudun gasped and said weakly: "Quick, save my lover!" She's dying. ”
"I just tried, and the latest formation-breaking bullet from the Southwest Institute still doesn't work against this magic barrier." Lu Bu patted the hell crossbow spirit gun on his waist, glanced at Chen Xuan in Xiahou Dun's arms again, and said, "But if you want to save her, you must first break this demon barrier array, do you know where the person who cast the array is?" ”
"Here!" At this time, the source of the sin blade slowly walked towards Xiahoudun and them.
"Who's coming?" Lu Bu stood up and pointed at the source of the sin blade with his halberd and said.
"My name is Sin Blade Yuan, the staff officer of the Tiantun Expeditionary Force." Sin Blade Yuan said with a smile, and then gentlemanly pointed at Lu Bu and asked, "Your Excellency?" ”
"You don't have to know the name of this seat!" Although Lu Bu glared at the source of the sin blade, he still had an arrogant smile on his face.
Sin Blade Yuan was stunned for a moment, and then laughed out loud, "Stupid! You don't know the power of the Demon Barrier Array? Still don't know how powerful I am? ”
Lu Bu squatted down and asked Xiahoudun, "Team leader Xiahou, do you still have the physical strength?" ”
"There are still a few, but it may be a little difficult to assist Captain Lu in the battle." Xiahoudun gasped and said a little unexpectedly.
Lu Bu smiled and said, "If you still have physical strength, take your lover to stay away." ”
"What?" Xiahoudun was stunned, he thought to himself, does Lu Bu want to fight against the source of the sin blade alone? Even if Lu Bu has the unparalleled courage in the world, he will still lose his advantage in this demonic obstacle. Although Lu Bu can kill the spell spirit at once, you must know that the spell spirit is not a demon, and it is also the object of weakening in the demon barrier, while the source of the sin blade is different, he is a pure demon, and he can enjoy the powerful power that the demon barrier brings to him. Xiahoudun, who had just been almost killed by the source of the sin blade, said worriedly: "Captain Lu, don't underestimate the enemy. ”
"Let's go!" Lu Bu was a little impatient, "If you don't leave, I don't dare to guarantee that I won't hurt you by mistake." ”
Xiahoudun nodded, said, "I'll come back to help you after a while", and then hugged Chen Xuan and hid in a stairwell more than ten meters behind Lu Bu.
Lu Bu looked back at Xiahoudun and they were hiding, then he put his mind at ease, and pointed at the source of the sin blade with his halberd and said, "Come on, little old man, let this seat see what you are capable of!" ”
"Little old man? Young man, you have to speak in a measured way! Sin Blade Yuan said, opened the book, and used the kind of black spikes that had just injured Xiahoudun, unlike last time, this time there were dozens of spikes, densely and inconsistently, stabbing towards Lu Bu.
Lu Bu put down his right hand holding Fang Tianhalberd, stretched out the palm of his left hand, and made a "stop" movement, and those long nails all stopped in mid-air. Lu Bu put down his left hand, and the spikes fell to the ground one by one.
"That's all it takes?" Lu Bu's arrogant tone was mixed with a hint of ridicule.
"Looks like I'm underestimating you." Sin Blade Yuan didn't feel nervous because of Lu Bu's powerful power, he flipped through the book unhurriedly, chanting incantations in his mouth. I saw that Sin Blade Yuan's body began to grow taller, growing to nearly two meters, and he was getting stronger and stronger, and his chest muscles and biceps were torn apart, and he was wearing clothes on his upper body. His complexion turned dark brown, his pupils turned dark red, and the book he had been holding in his right hand turned into a giant double-edged axe with a purple glow. After the change, the source of the sin blade smiled evilly, and swung the giant axe forward, and the wind and waves that were suddenly stirred up even Xia Houdun who was hiding could feel a suffocating sense of oppression.
"Oh?" The arrogant smile on Lu Bu's face never changed, but after seeing the change in the source of the sin blade, he had an indescribable excitement, "This is what it looks like, I hope you are not a strong outsider." ”
Sin Blade Yuan didn't speak, he roared, raised his giant axe and slashed at Lu Bu. Lu Bu flicked the giant axe away with his halberd, and tried to take the opportunity to reach out and lock the throat of the source of the sin blade. Who knew that although the source of the sin blade had transformed into a huge monster, his agility was not lower than that of Lu Bu, and he grabbed Lu Bu's hand, threw Lu Bu upward, and threw it on the ceiling.
Of course, Lu Bu, who had been through a hundred battles, didn't care about this damage, and as soon as he landed on the ceiling with his feet, he landed on the ground behind the source of the sin blade. Lu Bu took the opportunity to flick the Heavenly Halberd upwards and cut off the left arm of the Sin Blade Source.
The transformed Sin Blade Source didn't seem to be able to speak, he didn't care about the severed left arm, he roared angrily and turned around and swung his axe, slashing at the head of Lu Bu, who had time to stop in the future. Lu Bu's last attack had not been completely retracted, and in the face of the oncoming giant axe, he didn't care about attacking again, so he had to hurriedly take over the defense. Unexpectedly, the source power of the sin blade was extremely powerful, and although Lu Bu blocked this slash, he was shocked to take three steps back and almost fell.
"It's so interesting to be able to force this seat back!" Lu Bu, who had just stood firm, laughed wildly and rushed forward again.
Sin Blade Yuan stopped roaring, he held his breath and used all his strength to meet Lu Bu. At this time, Lu Bu's face also looked extremely solemn.
In an instant, the frequency of the sound of the clash of weapons in the corridor became higher, and the speed of that move made Xiahoudun, who was hiding on the side and watching the battle, not look very carefully, and the scene in his eyes was just the impact and entanglement of a golden light and a purple light.
Xiahoudun hugged Chen Xuan and watched the duel blankly. He couldn't help but be a little afraid, fortunately the source of the sin blade didn't use all his strength with him, otherwise he and Chen Xuan would have died at this time. He looked down at Chen Xuan in his arms again, silently praying in his heart that Chen Xuan would be safe and sound, and that Lu Bu would be able to win the battle. He held Chen Xuan's hand and raised it to his lips, thinking that Chen Xuan had just said that he would marry him, even if he said it when he was unconscious, it also represented Chen Xuan's love for him in his heart, but his cowardly self never dared to face the reality and did not confess to the girl he loved for a long time. He vowed that if he could escape alive this time, he would put an end to this comical ambiguity.
Xiahoudun probed out again, only to see that the Sin Blade Source had turned into a prototype, lying in a pool of blood, and a wound on his chest was bleeding from time to time with the Sin Blade Source's rapid and uneven breathing. And Lu Bu stood there, as if he had no strength, just holding the halberd and looking at the source of the sin blade with an expressionless face.
"Who the hell are you?" Sin Blade asked with blood streaming from his mouth.
Lu Bu, who had just defeated his opponent, also changed his arrogant attitude and said lightly: "The captain of the third special combat team - Lu Bu." ”
Hearing the word "Lu Bu", Sin Blade Yuan suddenly realized and smiled bitterly, "It turns out that you are Lu Bu......"
Lu Bu took a deep breath and stood there without speaking.
"Interesting, so interesting......" Sin Blade Yuan said with a smile, closing his eyes, his body dissipating into a puff of black smoke and dissipating into the dimly lit hallway. At the same time, the Demon Barrier Array was also dissolved in the process of dissipating the source of the sin blade.
"Is it so weak that you don't even have a demon spirit stone...... Lu Bu muttered, staring at the place where the source of the sin blade turned into smoke, but he didn't find the demon spirit stone that the high-level demons would leave behind after death, so he smiled bitterly, and then walked towards the stairwell where Xiahou and Chen Xuan were hiding, "Team leader Xiahou, the demon barrier has been lifted." ”
Xiahoudun walked out of the stairwell with Chen Xuan in his arms, and looked at Lu Bu with relief, "Thanks to Captain Lu." ”
"There is no need to say polite words," Lu Bu regained his original arrogant smile, pointed towards the stairs, and said, "Team leader Xiahou, go to the emergency treatment with your lover!" ”
Listening to Lu Bu's words, Xiahoudun suddenly felt a burst of blackness in front of him, and he forced himself to prevent his tired and injured body from falling.
"Team Leader Xiahou? Are you okay? Seeing this, Lu Bu hurriedly stepped forward to help.
However, Xia Hou couldn't hold on any longer, he felt his body crooked, and he lost consciousness.
When Xiahoudun opened his eyes, he found himself lying in the hospital room. He tried to sit up, but felt unbearable pain in his body, so he could only lift his head slightly. He turned his head to look around and found that Xiahou Ling was asleep on his hospital bed. He saw that Xiahou Ling was only wearing a single dress, and he was worried that she would catch a cold, so he wanted to cover her with the cotton clothes next to her. However, as soon as Xiahoudun's hand moved, Xiahouling woke up.
Xiahou Ling opened her sleepy eyes, looked at Xiahou Ling who woke up, and shouted excitedly: "Brother! You're finally awake. ”
"Xiaoling......" Xiahoudun looked at his beloved sister and said with a smile.
Xiahou Ling's eyes suddenly turned red, and then tears couldn't stop flowing, she held Xiahoudun's hand and said, "I'm worried about death, from last night to now, you have been in a coma for almost a whole day." ”
"I'm sorry to worry you." Xiahoudun wanted to wipe away his sister's tears, but his hand was clutched by his sister.
At this time, with a rush of footsteps, Chen Xuan entered the ward, "Xiao Dian, are you awake?" ”
"Chen Xuan, it's okay if you're fine." Xiahoudun saw that Chen Xuan was fine, so he completely relieved himself, "What about Lu Bu?" ”
"Lu Bu? Who is it? Chen Xuan asked with some surprise.
"He called me and left, saying that the mission here was completed and the whole team was evacuated." Xiahou Yuan also came in, and when he saw his eldest brother wake up, the corners of his originally stiff mouth showed a smile of relief, "When Xiaoling and I came, we only saw you and Sister Chen Xuan." ”
"Oh oh......" Xiahoudun responded casually, he wanted to ask in detail what the task of the third team was, and also wanted to know if the previous spell spirit and mountain road murder were related to the demons he met this time, but maybe it was because he was too tired, he didn't ask, just looked at his younger brothers and sisters, and said teasingly: "One of you doesn't go to work, the other doesn't go to class, all of you are guarding here?" ”
"Isn't this worrying about you," Xiahou Ling looked at Xiahoudun, and said with a little crying, "Besides, today is Sunday, what class do you take, what class do you ......?"
Xiahoudun smiled, only to remember that it was the weekend, plus just now Xiaoling said that he had been asleep for almost a day, today is of course Sunday, he looked out the window and found that it was already dark, and said jokingly: "It seems that I slept on a Sunday, and I have to go to work again tomorrow." ”
"Still thinking about going to work after all this?" Xiahou Yuan pouted and said, "I've asked for leave for you, and Sister Chen Xuan has also filled out the case registration, and I have counted your work-related injuries." ”
Xiahoudun nodded, and said jokingly: "Fortunately, it is considered a work injury, even if it is paid leave." ”
"What's that, Xiaoling and I haven't eaten yet." Xiahou Yuan saw that Chen Xuan had not spoken on the side, and said with interest: "I'll take Xiaoling to dinner first, and you can talk to Sister Chen Xuan." ”
"Oh, yes, we haven't eaten yet." Xiahou Ling seemed to understand Xiahou Yuan's meaning, stood up and waved her hand to Xiahou Yuan, and followed Xiahou Yuan out of the ward.
Chen Xuanmu sent the Xiahou brothers and sisters out of the ward, then walked over, sat down where Xiahou Ling had just sit, looked at Xiahou Ling with a smile, stroked his cheek, and did not speak.
Xiahoudun reached out and held Chen Xuan's hand, looked at her affectionately and said, "Marry me, okay?" ”
Hearing Xiahoudun's words, Chen Xuan didn't know how happy she was, she wanted to hear Xiahoudun express her intentions to herself for many years, but she felt that it was funny to say this in this situation, so she asked Xiahoudun with this tangled and excited expression: "This is the first thing you said to me when you woke up?" ”
"This is the second sentence, and the first sentence is to ask where Lu Bu is." Xiahoudun smiled, let go of Chen Xuan's hand, and stretched out his hand to Chen Xuan's face again.
Chen Xuan smiled a little shyly, shifted his gaze, lowered his head again, and said with a red face: "We are not even boyfriend and girlfriend." ”
"We can start with husband and wife," Xia Hou put down his hand and looked at the woman he had loved for a long time, "and then slowly get to know each other." ”
"Nasty!" Chen Xuan slapped Xiahoudun's hand shyly, and asked a little seriously: "Aren't you planning to talk to me about your relationship after you find out your life experience?" ”
"That's what I used to think...... Xiahoudun thought to himself, it turned out that Chen Xuan knew what he was thinking, and he couldn't help but sigh more deeply, how magical fate was. He smiled slightly and continued: "But don't think so now, no matter who I am or what my background is, I am still me, and I am the one who loves you deeply. And what happened yesterday made me really realize that the world is impermanent, and no one knows what will happen in the next moment. Therefore, the matter of giving you happiness cannot be delayed. ”
Chen Xuan was stunned for a moment, and suddenly tears of excitement crossed her smiling cheeks, and she nodded and said, "I do." ”
