Chapter 17: Swords and Guns

Huan Pei Linlang shattered the light, and the brocade sleeves vibrated with the streamer.

The sword light is like snow from the sheath, and half of the cold light is ten thousand stars.

Ye Baiyu looked at the palace woman in front of him, secretly clenched the knife in his hand a little tighter, and smiled at her.

His knife looked like it matched his dusty scabbard, and the blade was covered in rust, and the rest of the place looked like a pile of scrap metal, except for the bright blade.

But if you look closely, you will feel that the knife body hidden under the mottled rust seems to have some fine and regular lines. But if you really want to see the blade under the rust, you will find that this is a tattered rusty knife, and there is no such thing as a pattern at all.

Ye Baiyu raised his chin at the woman, with an easy expression on his face.

Slashing zombies with knives is actually not very effective.

The two of them had been fighting for half an hour, but no one had taken advantage of it. When the two sides made a move, they were all touching and retreating, testing each other, and for so long, no one was injured.

Ye Baiyu always played with the knife in his hand without leaking, and the footwork under his feet was very weird, obviously a big living person, he could be like a ghost, and he appeared in a strange place as soon as he raised his legs, which happened to be able to block the woman's way, and he could shake out the afterimage if he was fast. And the woman often pounced on him, and before he could even touch the corner of his clothes, he ran away. But as soon as she paused slightly, the sharply angled knife light came one after another, forcing her to concentrate on dealing with them one by one.

What's even more infuriating is that this person even raised his hand from time to time to throw a few sparks out. Although the flame was not large, and it was extinguished after a while, it was very successful as a distraction.

It didn't work, but it was so annoying that the woman always had a fire in her heart. But when you really want to have a seizure, no matter how hard you try, you can only pounce.

So she was even more angry, and even her movements were a little rougher.

It's long gone, and it just appeared, it's that gentle, soft, calm and calm appearance.

She didn't have so many tricks as Ye Baiyu. It's just that he is strong, and he has always been hard-hitting, not dodging or dodging, and taking the white blade empty-handed.

Her fingers made a crisp sound every time they collided with the tip of the knife, as if her fingers were not made of flesh, but of extremely hard stone.

Ye Baiyu raised his hand and rubbed his forehead, wiped away a drop of sweat that was about to fall into his eyes, and raised his hand again to take out the knife.

The tip of his knife slashed from the bottom up at the woman's chest, and his right hand, hidden behind his back, moved several times in a hurry.

A few clusters of cyan flames quickly floated in front of the woman, flying around in front of her eyes. Like a few chicks that have just learned to fly, they fly very clumsily, but they are very lively and have no rules, which can only make people upset.

The woman waved her sleeves angrily, swept away the clusters of flames in front of her, and stretched out her finger and flicked it lightly on Ye Baiyu's blade.

Her fingertips collided with Ye Baiyu's blade, and she made a "clang" sound, which was very crisp and pleasant.

There was even a slight spark on the blade.

The flames touched the silk fabric on her body, and instead of burning, they quickly extinguished, leaving not even a spark behind.

Ye Baiyu strode back and waved his sleeve in front of the woman's eyes. At the same time, he flipped his wrist and turned the knife in his hand for a moment before removing the impact of the woman's flick on the blade.

The woman raised her hand, grabbed something from the air, spread her palm and looked down.

The thing in her palm was a dark red walnut, which should have been rubbed by people all year round, and the lines had been polished smooth and shiny.

Ye Baiyu distanced himself from her, changed the knife to his right hand, and hid his left hand behind him and shook it lightly a few times.

The strength in the woman's hand is not small, and her body is hard, Ye Baiyu looks like no one is fine, in fact, his arm was numb by the force of the countershock from the knife not long after the fight started, so he could only try to find time to move his wrist to ensure that his movements were not chaotic, and he continued to fight.

The woman shook her hand, and when she opened her fingers again, many tiny powders fell from her palms and fell silently to the ground.

That's the walnuts that Lao Tzu has been panning for eight years!

My apprentice bought it for me!

Ye Baiyu looked at the powder falling in her hand distressedly, and seemed to hear the sound of blood dripping from her heart.

He switched the knife back to his left hand from behind his back, took a deep breath, and adjusted his expression.

"Actually...... If you think about it, we don't necessarily have to fight, do we? Ye Baiyu smiled at the woman and said, "You see that we don't have any deep hatred, just beat it and disperse." ”

The woman sneered and took a step forward.

There was a distance of two or three meters between the two of them, but as soon as the woman raised her legs, she directly appeared less than half a meter in front of Ye Baiyu, and stretched out a hand towards his eyes.

Ye Baiyu raised his hand, and the blade grazed the tip of his nose, blocking the woman's hand again.

He kept moving in his hands, and after knocking the woman's hand away, he directly sent the knife forward, stabbing at the woman's dantian.

The woman dodged sideways, raised her leg and kicked at Ye Baiyu's hand holding the knife.

Ye Baiyu stood still this time. He didn't seem to care at all about kicking his leg, but looked at the woman with a smile in his eyes, and the knife in his hand continued to move forward.

Just when the woman's toes touched Ye Baiyu's wrist, a vine appeared out of nowhere, quickly wrapped around her ankle, and hung her leg in the air.

Ye Baiyu stabbed the woman's body with a knife. After a pause, he slowly withdrew his knife and nodded at the woman.

The small green vine was tightly wrapped around the woman's ankle, and it continued to grow and spread to her calf.

She tried to retract her legs, but although the vine looked slender and fragile, it seemed to be broken by the wind, but it was actually extremely tough. No matter how hard she tried, the vines, which were not much thicker than steel wires, were tightly wrapped around her legs, not only did not loosen or break, but became tighter and tighter.

It's not that the vine has nothing to do, on the contrary, all the vine branches that are tightly wrapped around the woman's legs, as long as they come into contact with the woman's body, begin to turn black little by little, and the tender green leaves quickly curl up and turn black until they wither, and dry fall to the ground, and as soon as they touch the ground, they shatter into fine powder.

Even so, it still grows upwards like crazy, constantly sprouting and growing leaves. As it dries up and grows faster, it grows even faster, and the posture may eventually wrap the woman in its entirety.

"Alright." Ye Baiyu said softly: "You don't have to be like this. ”

The woman was stunned when she heard this, and tilted her head in confusion.

However, the vines on her legs stopped growing after Ye Baiyu said this, and little by little loosened its shackles on the woman.

"That's right." Ye Baiyu looked at the vines wrapped around the woman's legs with a smile, and unconsciously brought some pampering in her tone.

"Just watch from the sidelines. I can't deal with such a little girl, let you make a move, what are you like? ”

After he said this, the vines wrapped around the woman's legs "swished" a few times and disappeared without a trace.

The woman was stunned, and after discovering that her legs could move, she continued to raise her legs and kick towards Ye Baiyu without thinking.

Ye Baiyu raised his hand, opened her leg with the back of the knife, and slashed at her neck with a backhand.

The woman took a step back and dodged the knife. He immediately turned around and raised his hand......

************************************************************************

"This way." Sparrow glanced back at Xia Beifeng, who was following her, and anxiously urged, "You should hurry up." ”

"I want to hurry too!" Xia Beifeng crawled through the bushes with difficulty, not daring to show his head, for fear of letting the female zombie see it, and constantly dodging the spikes on the branches of the trees around him, and it took almost all his strength to move forward a little.

He looked up at the sparrow standing on the branch of the tree, and muttered in a low voice, "I can't fucking fly." ”

"What did you say?" The sparrow said and picked up the seed of an unknown plant, and threw it at Xia Beifeng's head, "Don't say bad things about me behind your back." ”

"Good...... Just listen to you. ”

Xia Beifeng said as he raised his head from the bushes and glanced outside, "This is it." ”

Ye Baiyu and the woman who looked the same as Yue Yao were fighting not far in front of Xia Beifeng, and it was difficult to separate.

"Hey, I haven't seen you for a few days, Master's knife skills are powerful again!" Xia Beifeng said as he took out a silver pistol from his body, opened the safe, held the gun in front of his eyes and aimed it forward.

It seems that if people have been single for a long time, any miracle can happen.

Xia Beifeng aimed his crosshair at Ye Baiyu, smiled evilly, and then turned around to look at his opponent.

"After all, he doesn't have anything else to do except eat or sleep all day long, maybe he just studies how to fight with people." The sparrow also came to Xia Beifeng's side, squatting and looking at the pistol in his hand, "Is it in this line, why do I think it's a little far?" ”

"It should work."

Xia Beifeng raised the pistol for a while, his eyes always followed the woman's figure, and after looking at her intently for a while, he frowned.

Sparrow wanted to urge him to shoot quickly, but after seeing him purse his lips and look intently at the expression in front of him. raised his hand to cover his mouth, forced himself to shut up, and looked at Xia Beifeng without daring to come out.

Xia Beifeng took a deep breath, aimed at the woman's body entangled in vines, and pulled the trigger.

There was a soft sound of a firing pin in the chamber of the gun.

He touched the gun in his hand nostalgically, with a smile in his eyes. I didn't aim anymore, and I began to wander openly.

The sparrow looked at it for a while, but he didn't see Xia Beifeng's next move, and finally couldn't help but urge: "You don't have any bullets in your gun, why are you shooting blindly?" Just know what a waste of time...... Can you hurry up and get down to business! ”

"Guns, just like women." Xia Beifeng explained to the sparrow: "You have to cultivate a relationship with it first, and then it will listen to you, do you understand?" ”

I don't understand, and I don't want to.

All I know is that you're cultivating a relationship with a "woman-like" gun, and I, a woman, might be going to be able to beat you up.

Thinking like this in his heart, the sparrow still felt angry, and simply threw another fruit to smash Xia Beifeng's head.

"I just want to find out how it feels." Xia Beifeng shook his head, lowered his head and took out a bullet with some white light from his pocket, and said to the sparrow without raising his head: "I haven't had a model gun for many years, and there is only one bullet that can be used, so I must think about it before shooting." ”

Sparrow nodded, "Hmm", and accepted the explanation, which sounded serious. Squatting on the side with his chin propped up, he watched Xia Beifeng's movements intently.

When she looked at Xia Beifeng now, there was a little smile on the corner of her mouth, and her eyes were shining, as if there were stars twinkling in her eyes.

Xia Beifeng raised his head and saw that the vines on the woman's legs were shedding leaves. He looked at the woman, his hand moving quickly, and loaded the white bullet into the gun.

The vines on the woman's legs loosened, and she directly raised her legs and kicked at Ye Baiyu.

Xia Beifeng raised the snatch and aimed at the woman's forehead.

He looked intently at the blurred figure in the night ahead, and although the woman's face was not clear, he felt that it was probably no problem to hit her now.

He had been observing the woman's movements even from the very beginning, constantly predicting what her next move would be, and judging how to shoot.

He blinked, looked at the woman's figure, and gradually felt that he was the only one left who seemed to be quiet around him.

The small sounds around them disappeared at some point, whether it was the sound of Ye Baiyu and the woman fighting and colliding, or the extremely subtle "rustle" sound of the grass colliding with each other.

He couldn't really hear it.

Even the sparrows that crouched beside him and played with the grass seemed to be gone.

Xia Beifeng heard the sound of his own heartbeat, his own breathing, and even the sound of his own blood vessels flowing.

And the sound of the wind whistling in my ears.

Ye Baiyu blocked with the back of the knife, and the woman reached out to grab Ye Baiyu's chest again.

Xia Beifeng pulled the trigger at this moment.

He closed his eyes and smiled the moment he heard the gunshot. Then he immediately pulled up the sparrow next to him, and ran in a random direction without thinking about it.

"Huh?" The sparrow ran with Xia Beifeng in confusion for a while, and from time to time he looked back at the two who had just been inseparable, and then glanced at Xia Beifeng suspiciously.

"What if you miss?"

"It doesn't matter if you hit or not, anyway, they will definitely find me after this shot, so it's better to run directly."

After he said this, he pulled the sparrow and squatted in the bushes on the other side, and looked up in the direction of Ye Baiyu's two.

"And there's no way I'm going to miss it."

The sparrow glanced at Xia Beifeng with disdain, and he pouted unwillingly.

The bullet didn't hit the woman's forehead after all, but was embedded in the woman's shoulder.

The woman took a step back from the impact of the bullet, let go of her hand covering her shoulder, and looked down at her wound.

The wound was a small hole, and there was no large area of flesh and blood, not even blood.

She tried to move her arms, only to find that half of her body was paralyzed.

In fact, she didn't feel the pain anymore, but the bullet stuck in her shoulder blade, constantly showing her presence.

The bullet in her body was hot, but it didn't give her a burning feeling, just some warmth.

Although it is warm, it can block her movements.

The woman stretched out her other hand and plunged two fingers directly into the wound, trying to pull the bullet out.

Ye Baiyu glanced at Xia Beifeng and the sparrow's hiding place from a distance, raised his knife, and slashed at the woman's neck again.

The woman only tilted her head this time, realizing that she might not be able to dodge the knife, so she let the knife slash at her neck.

The blade slammed into her slender and fragile throat, making a sound of goldstone clashing.

Ye Baiyu withdrew the knife and looked at his blade with a bitter smile.

"That's it for today." Ye Baiyu whispered to the woman: "The children in the family are fooling, don't be surprised. ”

The woman's fingers touched the bullet in her shoulder, as if she had touched something terrible, and her whole body trembled.

Ye Baiyu arched his hand at the woman, turned around and strode in the direction of Xia Beifeng.

He passed by where the two were hiding, and his footsteps did not stop, but he opened his mouth and spat out a word.

"Run."

Xia Beifeng immediately pinned the gun behind him and got up to keep up with Ye Baiyu's footsteps.

They ran out of the distance before Ye Baiyu looked back at Xia Beifeng.

"It's good that the sparrow thing can scare her for a minute, and she's going to be angry when she reacts." Ye Baiyu turned his head and glared at Xia Beifeng fiercely, and said in a serious tone with a straight face: "How old are you or you can only mess around, and if you don't want anything else, you will know how to make trouble!" ”

That being said, the praise in Ye Baiyu's eyes was about to be hidden.

Xia Beifeng raised his eyebrows and smiled indifferently.

"And the sparrow, you let him make trouble?"

The sparrow simply waved its wings and flew into the sky.

Ye Baiyu lowered his head and took two more steps, not knowing what he was thinking, but he suddenly burst out laughing.

"Dare to scare such a shoddy thing, and it really scares you...... It's true that I taught it! ”

Xia Beifeng whispered "cut", and was about to say something to Ye Baiyu.

At that moment, a terrible howl came from behind them, and the ground beneath their feet seemed to shake slightly with the howl twice.
