"Sister Lin Yu, it's been a long time, you're still the same."

The girl named Adai smiled and waved hello to Lin Yu, but Lin Yu remained silent.

"Oh, you still don't like to deal with people, it's sad."

"You ......"

Xia Jing finally squeezed the sound out of his throat, but then remained silent.

Let the girls on the other side continue to speak

"You ...... What's the matter? ”

"Ah, it's not good to speak in that tone."

Adai shook his index finger as he spoke, and his every move looked so pretentious.

"I'm Adai, I'm in Class E in the third year, and she's in Class Aye, Class C in the second year."

Obviously, the identities of the two should have been exposed, but they deliberately reported the names they used as human beings, which is really unpleasant.

"Sister Adai. Sister Aye. ”

As if to break the silence, Lin Yu spoke, "You guys, what are you doing here?" ”

In the face of questioning, Adai said unswervingly: "We have really suffered a lot. Remember it's Tuesday? Since the day after Li Qi's defeat, the two of us have been wandering around here every day, except for wandering and wandering. There's no drudgery like that. ”

"So ...... you guys are here?"

"But ah, it's almost enough to stop, right? Adai has reached his limit, and he is fed up with this situation of dragging mud and water for a long time. Besides, the practice of achieving the ultimate goal in one go may seem like a shortcut at first glance, but in fact it is a long detour. At times like this, it's definitely better to be down-to-earth. ”

Adai was talking about inexplicable things with exaggerated body movements and foaming at the mouth. Xia Jing couldn't help but interrupt: "What do you want to say?" ”

At this time: "So ...... say"

Adai's tone changed.

"I MEAN, AS LONG AS I GET RID OF YOU BEFORE KILLING YEA."

"What......?"

The actor-like expression sank before, and Adai showed a cruel smile.

Take a step in the direction of Xia Jing and Lin Yu. As if echoing her actions, another girl, Ah Ye, murmured, "As long as you harm these two people, Ye Ya will definitely appear in anger." ”

"That's it, you two."

Adai waved his right hand lightly.

A long, thin rod-like object burst out of the cuff of the hooded jacket. Adai grabbed it and stretched straight to Xia Jing and the two. The front end of the object droops like a wicker and begins to slowly elongate.

And Ah Ye's left hand is also wearing wonderful things. A large number of beads, strings, and other objects are tangled together in a haphazard manner, forming a shape that resembles a bracelet and a glove.

I'm afraid that both are treasures of the deer clan with extraordinary powers.

"You ...... Don't make a fuss!"

Xia Jing didn't say a word, and hugged the shape feather next to him.

He turned around, and without looking back, he pulled his legs and rushed straight into the mountains.

Xia Jing's move was not based on exact evidence, but purely an intuitive reaction. However, it seems that the result is correct, and Lin Yu has no intention of resisting. After almost rolling into the mountain, Xia Jing got up and asked urgently, "Can you run?" ”

"I don't need you, brother, to lead me."

"Oops. Oops. Do you guys want to play You Chase Me? It seems to be fun~"

From behind the woods came Adai's voice. I don't know if the tone of Wen Tun is deliberate, or is it really easy? In any case, if it really had to be fought by force, Xia Jing's odds of victory fell to a pathetic level.

Xia Jing and Lin Yuyu sprinted quickly.

As he ran, he reached into his waist in his coat. Open the leather sheath attached to the belt and confirm the contents. Golden Bough - Since that day, Xia Jing has never forgotten to carry it with him.

“…… What to do now! ”

While scurrying blindly in the forest deep in the mountains like a headless fly, Xia Jing asked Lin Yu's opinion beside him. Her speed was faster than Xia Jing, who was struggling to rush forward. She wasn't running, she was repeating the big jump...... It's like a little monkey.

In short, her physical fitness seems to be superior to Xia Jing, and it seems that there is no need to worry about her.

"I think I can get rid of the two of them and then go back to the Lost House, but ......"

"Are you afraid that if you can't get rid of them, it will be self-defeating and bring them back?"

“…… Yes, there is nothing wrong with that. ”

"What about splitting up? If the targets are scattered......"

"Not good. Even if I'm fine, Brother Xia Jing will be killed in seconds. ”

"Wow, so you think about my personal safety."

"If you weren't Sister Ya's fiancé, I would have left you down a long time ago."

Climb the rock in front of you, jump down, and slide down the slope. Although the coat and jeans are a mess in the blink of an eye, now is not the time to worry about clothes.

"Is there a slight distance?"

Xia Jing glanced behind him.

"Hmm. The other party is very comfortable with the whole process, and I think they should enjoy the process...... Let's not mention Sister Aye, Sister Adai is this kind of person. ”

“…… That's a terrible suck. But it also helped us a lot. ”

If the other party's personality is straightforward, whether he can catch Lin Yu is another matter, at least he won't let Xia Jing escape.

The two fled all the way for about five minutes, and they reached a gurgling stream through countless trees, Xia Jing stood on the bank and looked around and said, "Let's call for help now." ”

"No, I can't. The ultimate goal of the two of them is Sister Ye Ya. ”

"But it's not a way to go on like this."

Although Lin Yu shook his head with a heavy face and rejected the proposal, Xia Jing refused to back down.

"If there's a way to get rid of them completely, that's for the best. The question is, can we do it? ”

As soon as Xia Jing asked, Lin Yu was silent.

"I know it's not a stopgap measure, but now we can only increase our manpower and then figure out a way, right?"

"This is playing right into the other party's hands."

Maybe that's true, but—

"No...... I think it's better to find her. May I? I'm going to find her. ”

Xia Jing took out his phone from his pocket.

No matter how you think about it, you can't break the ice if you continue to play this game.

But just as Xia Jing lifted his phone and was about to call up Anno's phone number-

"Huh? …… Are you already resting? How can it be so fast~"

Behind it came the sound of an oily and fussy enemy.

Looking back, on the broad-leaved tree less than a few meters away, with smooth foliage—

"Phew. We met again. ”

Ah Dai, who was sitting on the branch of the tree, was waving to Xia Jing and the others.

- Wouldn't it?

I thought I had already distanced myself from them.

Ah Ye followed and emerged from behind the tree.

“……”

Xia Jing slowly lowered his phone.

It feels as if a small action like pressing the dial button can become a fatal flaw.

"Don't you chase me anymore? Then I'm going to kill you! ”

Adai posed in an offensive stance on the tree, ready to jump down towards Xia Jing and the others.

Is it really just a matter of being slaughtered......

Just when Xia Jing was desperate, Lin Yu muttered, "Brother Xia Jing." I think it's better to go with what you just proposed. ”

"Huh......?"

"Please run away. I'm going to be their opponent. ”

An arrogant smile appeared in the eyes of the girl who spoke casually.

"What nonsense are you talking about?"

"Sister Aye, Sister Adai!"

Lin Yu no longer has the psychology to know Xia Jing.

Just stared intently at the two enemies in front of him.

"Are you two the only ones here?"

"yes, yes. The two of us are enough, right? ”

"Enough to handle...... Is it? When was the last time you competed? ”

"I don't remember what time it was. I have the impression that at least before you change to that useless body. Then again, you're too miserable. It turned out to be on that kind of scrapped waste. ”

The moment Adai finished speaking, Lin Yu's atmosphere changed.

Even Xia Jing could see the murderous aura.

"Oops. Angry at being looked down upon, isn't it? It's terrible, it's terrible~"

Adai twisted in a contrived manner.

In contrast to Adai's nonsense, it is also the opposite of the fiery aura that he exudes-

As quiet as water, Lin Yu said in a low voice: "Attack!"

Instantly-

Lin Yu's figure disappeared!

“…… Hey? ”

Adai was dazed. A white shadow appeared in front of his eyes.

Xia Jing gasped.

The action Lin Yu took was actually a jump.

Without any run, he jumped three meters away and five meters high in one go.

The shadow swirled. It could be a roundhouse kick or something.

The summer scene cannot be visually inspected. It's just—

“……!”

That movement caused Adai's body to lose his balance from the side blow, and he fell from the branch where he had been sitting upside down.

Ah Ye still did not relax his vigilance.

Lin Yu, who landed lightly, shouted without looking back: "Brother Xia Jing, run away...... Come on! ”

Although his voice is still childish, his tone is indescribably tough.

How could she leave behind the idea of such a young girl escaping alone, which had been completely denied by the attack that Lin Yu had carried out just now. Xia Jing's common sense as a human being is meaningless on this occasion.

There is only a split second to make a judgment.

Xia Jing immediately turned around and ran.

"Don't want to run away!"

Addai's voice rang out behind him. But the attack didn't follow, and instead it came—

"I'm not going to let you get away with it."

It was Lin Yu's calm words.

Xia Jingtou didn't look back, and ran forward while listening to this sentence. After jumping over the creek and passing through the trees on the opposite bank, take a steady step and look around. Since he found a big tree big enough to hide, Xia Jing went around to the back and nested in the dark and did not escape.

Of course, Xia Jing had no intention of following the instructions and escaping obediently.

If you do run away, it's no different from being a fool.

Xia Jing pressed the call button on his phone. After a while, the line was connected.

‘…… Feed? ’

"Is it Anno?"

'What's wrong, Natsujing?' ’

"We're under attack!"

The most straightforward sentence made An Ye on the other end of the receiver stunned.

"Do you recognize my location?"

There was no time to wait for her to regain her composure, Xia Jing then asked.

‘…… Sorry, I can see what you're doing...... But every corner of the mountain looks the same, so I can't get the right place. ’

It seems that the hiding that has been monitoring Xia Jing until a few days ago is not omnipotent.

"There's a creek nearby, isn't that obvious enough for a landmark?"

If there is a creek, I may be able to guess the approximate location. ’

"In that case...... That's right. ”

Xia Jing had a flash of inspiration and pulled out the golden branch from his waist.

Then use the tip to cut a scar on the trunk of the tree where you are hiding.

"I'll make a tree grow taller first. How's that going?"

‘…… I guess it helps. ’

Five days have passed since he was present to witness the battle between Li Qi and Ye Ya. These days, the summer scene is not just spent in a muddy way. Even if it is impossible to become good at fist and foot kung fu all of a sudden, at least he has tried all aspects with Jin Zhi and gradually mastered some methods of use.

The scarred trees dominated by the summer landscape rose into the sky in the blink of an eye.

'Summer view! Xia Jing, are you alright? Are there any injuries? ’

The sound ringing in my ears suddenly became harsh and noisy. It's Yaya!

"It's noisy, don't yell on the phone."

Ye Ya is probably not used to such things as mobile phones.

"I'm unharmed at the moment. Lin Yu helped me attract the attention of the enemy. ”

"Xia Jing, do you know who the enemy is?" ’

The phone seems to have been snatched back by Anno.

"They called themselves Adai and Aye. It's a boomer, right? ”

'You say Ah Ye...... Is it? ’

Somehow, Yasuno seemed stunned. Xia Jing wondered as he spoke, "All in all, now Lin Yu is trying to contain the two of them. But I don't know how long she can last...... Are those two strong? ”

'Rest assured. If it was the two of them, Lin Yu still had some advantages. The boy is the guardian of the family...... It's the current head of the branch of the division who specializes in martial arts. The actual combat experience is still above Li Qi. ’

This is too instructive to fall through the glasses, right?

But she's a child after all, and there's no guarantee that nothing will go wrong. We'll get there as soon as we can. ’

"Please!"

'If there's anything I have to contact, I'll call you.' ’

"I'd better just hang up the phone when I look at the phone, okay?"

I don't recommend it. If you have a way to keep your phone in your ears and not take it away, that's a different story. ’

“…… That's right. ”

Dumb and Nightly may spot themselves and attack at any time. What's more, Anye and the others can use the treasure to monitor the situation here. So Xia Jing said goodbye to An Ye and hung up the phone. After changing the ringtone, tuck your phone into your breast pocket so that you can notice the call as soon as possible.

"Alright."

Xia Jing quietly poked his head out of the shade of the tree to peek at the condition of Lin Yu and the others.

The overgrown vegetation affects the poor view, and the forest is dimly lit. Although you can't even see the details of the process clearly, at least you can hear the intermittent shouting and the impact of something bounceing away.

INTERVIEWER What should I do now?

Don't act rashly and wait for Ye Ya and the two to arrive? Or should I help Lin Yu?

Xia Jing does not seem to have a way to make a correct and objective judgment. Regardless of the opponent's strength, it is unknown how much combat power he can exert against his own clan. Will it be able to achieve the effect of adding wings to the tiger after going into battle, or will it just pull Lin Yu's hind legs?

The previous time, at most, she took advantage of Li Qi's unpreparedness to make her suffer a dull stick, and I didn't think that the same move would work the second time......

“…… Wait!"

Speaking of taking advantage of the unpreparedness, Xia Jing discovered one thing. Adai and Aye should not have known that they were in possession of this treasure. In that case, the same trick should work, right?

Besides, the location is now on the mountain. There are dense vegetation and trees, and there are many materials that can make use of the summer scene.
