Chapter 37: Be Careful
That's how we used to be.
The tempering of the Burning Mountain has never had any emotion and leeway, and the person in charge of tempering the killer is always expressionless, arranging the killer with one seemingly unattainable task after another.
They said, "Either life or death." β
They say, "If you want to live, do it." β
So I can only swallow all the sighs back into my stomach, wipe away my tears, and do it. Do it with all your strength, do it with all your means, because you don't want to die, you want to live.
Now, the two of them are facing an army, and Ye Zhaopei's first thought is not "do you have a chance of winning", but where to attack and what kind of tactics to use.
She was never the one to run away from.
Any killer who comes from the Burning Mountain is not the one who escapes.
Hearing what Ye Zhaopei said, and seeing her smile again, Yun Mang also smiled: "Yes." It's always been like this. β
According to Jiang Zhun's order, the army surrounded Ye Zhaopei and Yun Mang in the center, while he climbed a high rock wall and watched the battle expressionlessly.
Ye Zhaopei's hands and feet are dexterous, his movements are fast, his hands are up and down, and human blood is splashed.
"She uses not only a soft sword, but also a hidden weapon," Jiang Zhun said lightly, "It is worthy of a beauty sword, if it weren't for the better eyes, I wouldn't be able to see the hidden weapon she used at all." β
Lu Gou stood behind him dressed in black and did not speak.
Jiang Zhun continued: "Originally, these troops wanted to cooperate with Jiang Hong to capture Ledu, but I couldn't swallow the hatred of the past. Lu Gou, will you blame me? β
After speaking, he looked at Lu Gou behind him.
Lu Gou shook his head very lightly, still not saying anything.
Jiang Zhun smiled, stretched out his hand, and touched the top of Lu Gou's head: "You go down too, isn't there something to be solved between you and her?" β
Lu Gou looked at him, and then looked at Ye Zhaopei.
Ye Zhaopei was flying through the air, throwing out a flying knife in her hand, knocking more than a dozen soldiers to the ground, and she didn't pause, as soon as she landed, she threw out the soft sword in her hand.
With such a neat and ruthless action, I can't find a second one in the whole world.
Jiang Zhun withdrew his hand, and Lu Gou took a step forward and jumped down.
The army made way for him, allowing him to walk step by step in the direction where Ye Zhaopei and Yun Mang were.
Yun Mang was closer to him, and immediately frowned, and slashed down with his sword. Lu Gou raised his arm and resisted his sword blade, the long sword was sharp, and Yun Mang's strength was also great, but Lu Gou's arm was not damaged at all.
"What......" Yun Mang was slightly stunned.
Lu Gou remained silent, threw out his arm, and pushed Yun Mang's long sword away.
Yun Mang slashed away the soldiers around him, and Lu Gou had already continued to walk towards Ye Zhaopei.
"Lu Gou! You stop! β
Yun Mang shouted angrily and continued to rush forward.
And this time, Lu Gou showed some displeasure, turned around and kicked Yun Mang's chest, kicking him out for a long distance.
Yun Mang fell to the ground, grinning in pain, but he didn't have time to exhale the pain.
The soldiers surrounded him, and the spear in his hand instantly stabbed into his body, but it was also thanks to Yun Mang's quick reaction, one flew up, slipped out of one of them's crotch, and finally escaped.
Yun Mang stood up, rubbed his chest, his throat was hot, and he actually spit out a mouthful of hot blood.
Lu Gou didn't even look at him, and walked straight to Ye Zhaopei.
Yun Mang no longer attacked rashly, but chose to kill Ye Zhaopei all the way.
He was not a reckless man, and he knew that he could only die here if he rashly fought with Lu Gou. Because of some unknown reasons, Lu Gou's body should have been strengthened, and he didn't have to be afraid of injury without a sword, and he even made a big leap in the strength of his body.
Yun Mang can't be an enemy of Lu Gou, but he can help Ye Zhaopei.
Lu Gou was heading for Ye Zhaopei, although Ye Zhaopei also had natural strange powers, but if Lu Gou interfered with her, and other soldiers also attacked, Ye Zhaopei would naturally suffer a loss if he was attacked by the enemy.
Yun Mang rushed towards Ye Zhaopei, and what he did was this plan.
Finally, before Lu Gou, Yun Mang killed in front of Ye Zhaopei.
"Zhao Pei!" Yun Mang called her.
Ye Zhaopei was murderous, and at this time, he suddenly looked back, and the soft sword came straight towards Yun Mang, the cold light under his eyes and the cold light of the sword body shone together, and Yun Mang was stunned for a while.
The tip of the sword was pointed at him.
But Ye Zhaopei just glanced at him, and the soft sword in his hand grazed Yun Mang's cheek, cutting the throat of a soldier behind him.
killed someone, Ye Zhaopei smiled at him: "Rely on me to save you, I'm sorry, right?" β
Yun Mang breathed a sigh of relief: "I'm also here to save you." β
"I'm fine." Ye Zhaopei's face did not change, his right hand slashed back, and he did not look back, but he also killed a soldier accurately.
Yun Mang took a deep breath: "Lu Gou is here to kill you, just in the direction of your left." He should have gained some strength when he came back from the dead......"
Extraordinary power.
Ye Zhaopei looked in the direction he said, and really saw Lu Gou approaching step by step.
I don't know if it's because he can't walk fast, or because Lu Gou is confident about killing Ye Zhaopei, Lu Gou's steps are not slow.
He walked step by step, and because his whole body was covered with black strips of cloth, he couldn't see what the expression on his face was.
Ye Zhaopei frowned slightly, and said to Yun Mang: "Be careful." So he trotted towards Lu Gou and rushed over.
Lu Gou's eyes were exposed, and when he saw Ye Zhaopei coming, his eyes narrowed slightly, as if he was very happy.
Yun Mang couldn't comment on Ye Zhaopei's swift movements at all, he could only sigh and clean up the troublesome small fish and shrimp behind her for Ye Zhaopei.
Ye Zhaopei arrived three feet away in front of Lu Gou, stopped, and stabbed the soft sword in his hand in the direction of Lu Gou's heart, as strong as a silver snake.
Lu Gou stretched out his hand, grabbed the soft sword, and then with the strength of his hand, he actually crushed the soft sword.
Ye Zhaopei frowned: "Lu Gou? β
Lu Gou didn't respond to her, his free left hand was clenched into a fist, and he swung it violently, Ye Zhaopei avoided it with a side face, took three steps back, and stood firm.
And he let go of the hand that had crushed the soft sword, and the shards were scattered all over the ground, and there was a little blood stained on it.
ββββββ
On the Burning Mountain, many killers don't speak to each other.
Because they know very well that they will definitely become enemies in the future, and in the Burning Mountain, feelings are the most useless and hindering survival.
Ye Zhaopei can be friends with Yun Mang because of the different goals between the two of them, and also because of the relationship between Yun Mang and Jiang Zhi.
And making friends with Lu Gou was purely accidental.
Ye Zhaopei likes Jiang Zhi, but she has never told many people around her about this, many killers have become Ye Zhaopei's subordinates, and she has also heard rumors about her "natural strange power, demonic possession". They were both afraid and laughing at her.
Probably because he studied and learned words since he was a child, Lu Gou had a very gentle temperament at that time, and he was a little person who still treated people with sincerity.
When Ye Zhaopei came to Kwai Shui, she ran the mountain road all day, and the whole person was haggard, and in the middle of the night, she fell on the sand at the door of the dining house and convulsed, and she couldn't get up again.
The killers ate and drank enough in the dining house, went back to rest, and when they passed by Ye Zhaopei's side, they didn't squint, they didn't look at her at all, and no one stopped to ask her what was wrong, let alone reach out to help.
The only one who stayed was Lu Gou.
Lu Gou squatted beside her, holding a steamed bun in his hand.
He asked her very lightly, "Are you called Ye Zhaopei?" β
Ye Zhaopei moved his fingers, turned his head with all his strength, and looked at him.
From her direction, you can see Lu Gou's face, very young, and above his head is the bright moon and stars.
"It's really you, Ye Zhaopei," Lu Gou smiled, "I've seen you fight with Yun Mang, and I remember you." β
Ye Zhaopei just looked at him, expressionless, and didn't speak.
"Yun Mang is not here, if he is here, he should come to save you. It's a pity he's not there. He returned to Yun's house, and it seems that his mother died. β
Ye Zhaopei still didn't speak.
"Ah...... Are you hungry? β
Ye Zhaopei wanted to speak.
But at this time, she realized that her throat was tight, and she didn't even have the strength to open her lips.
Lu Gou sighed, got up and left.
Ye Zhaopei thought that he had left himself alone, and at the age of sixteen, she was a little scared and a little sad. In fact, she really hoped that Jiang Zhi would come to her and help her, but Jiang Zhi would not come.
And at this time, any word of concern is a treasure for her. She hoped that Lu Gou would accompany her to talk more.
But Lu Gou also left.
Ye Zhaopei's eyes were slightly red, and his stomach began to growl. She was really hungry and hungry. In Huoyao Mountain, sometimes you can only eat one meal a day, and today is such a day.
She moved her gaze to the night sky.
She said softly in her heart, Childe, if I die here, I will no longer be loyal to you.
You saved my life, and I should repay the favor, but I don't think I can hold on.
Sometimes, I think, how good it would be if you hadn't saved me?
Ye Zhaopei's tears slid down his cheeks and fell on the sand.
She closed her eyes and was silent for a moment, and in her mind, the white-clothed young man who had picked up her in the ice and snow appeared again. It was Jiang Zhi when he was young, but his eyebrows and eyes were already very handsome.
He hugged himself and said softly, "In the future, I will take care of you." Don't cry anymore. β
Ye Zhaopei suddenly gained some kind of strength, she slowly opened her eyes, moved her fingers, and sat up from the ground. Her head was still a little groggy, but she could move, only with less strength.
"Hey, why did you get up on your own?"
Lu Gou held a bowl, walked up to her, and squatted down again.
Ye Zhaopei looked at him coldly.
Lu Gou smiled: "In the past, my fiancΓ©e would have such a time, every time, I would cook a bowl of ginger soup for her." After drinking it, she will feel much better. β
As he spoke, he handed the bowl in his hand to Ye Zhaopei.
Ye Zhaopei lowered his eyes.
In the bowl was light brown hot water, steaming, and three or four small pieces of ginger floated in the water.
He just went to prepare for this, so he left?
Ye Zhaopei looked at Lu Gou again and asked coldly, "Why?" β
