Chapter 372: Strange but Lonely
In Chen Tian's memory, there is no temperature in the Kaicheng area, only the most primitive instinct of human nature.
Survive.
In Chen Tian's gloomy memory, there are only two glimmers of light that can make him nostalgic.
One is Lu Si, a partner who has been mixed up since childhood, and the other is a crazy man who looks a little crazy in front of him.
In Kaicheng District, anyone with a shred of sanity knows that the last thing that should be there here is compassion, but the crazy man is the person who has no reason and is often crazy.
When Chen Tian and Lu Si were teenagers before they learned to support themselves (steal), the final fate of the two teenagers seemed to have been sealed, that is, they died of hunger and cold on the street on a cold night.
But this crazy man, who was ridiculed and scolded by people, saved the two teenagers with the garbage he picked up.
Chen Tian looked at the crazy man in front of him, although he looked like he had run out of oil, his eyes were weird.
"Crazy uncle, I'm not a ghost, I'm Xiaotian, I'm really Xiaotian......
Crazy Uncle was sometimes crazy and sometimes sober when he was young, and now that he is older, his brain must be even less sober. In order to let the crazy man recognize him, Chen Tian bent down and tried his best to get close to the crazy uncle.
But at this time, the crazy man seemed to have really seen a ghost, using his hands and feet together, crawling towards the garbage heap with difficulty, and at the same time kept shouting: "Devil, ghost, I saw a man-eating ghost......
While Chen Tian tried his best to explain, he was also puzzled in his heart.
Crazy Uncle is crazy from time to time, this Chen Tian knows. But the moment Chen Tian looked at the crazy man just now, he clearly saw that the madness in the crazy man's eyes faded and turned into a moment of clarity.
It was at this time that the crazy man shouted at himself.
Even if a sober madman can't recognize himself, he shouldn't think of himself as a man-eating ghost......
Looking at the crazy man crawling towards the depths of the garbage dump, Chen Tian followed, wanting to explain clearly and at the same time trying to figure out what happened to the crazy man.
"Crazy ......"
Chen Tian shouted in a low voice, and stretched out his right hand to pull the crazy man who was crawling forward.
However, at this moment, a sudden sense of danger suddenly appeared, and Chen Tian was instantly alert.
A galloping black shadow suddenly appeared in Chen Tian's afterglow, and Chen Tian hurriedly withdrew his right hand.
But Chen Tian, who did not expect danger, had already changed his center of gravity because of the simple action of "stretching out his right hand", and the inertia of his body moved forward uncontrollably even at the moment when his brain sensed danger.
At the critical moment, Chen Tian twisted his waist with all his strength while retracting his hand, driving his body to rotate forward.
This one turned around and narrowly avoided this sneak attack.
It's just that the crisis is far from being resolved, and the other party obviously calculated that a sneak attack could not work, and did not give Chen Tian a chance to breathe, another black shadow followed, and the angle was more tricky and deadly.
Just these two sneak attacks, it can be seen that the people who attacked Chen Tian are not idle people, especially the second one, following the first one, even the sound of breaking the sky is hidden in the first sneak attack; And the other party calculated the position where Chen Tian was hiding very accurately, and rushed straight to Chen Tian's door; The timing was even better, it was when Chen Tian turned around, and even if Chen Tian turned around, it would be difficult for him to have time to dodge even if he found out.
However, Chen Tian is not a vegetarian, he was still a "thief", he fought all over the invincible opponents in Kaicheng District, and he has been dealing with extremely vicious people in Dali Temple for so many years, so his force is not weak.
I saw that Chen Tian turned around and held the Pu knife on his left waist with his left hand, and in order to quickly make a knife, he chose to hold the knife in his forehand.
The Pu knife was unsheathed, and Chen Tian turned around and raised the knife upwards at the same time, and the blade was raised, and the second sneak attack came galloping in the middle.
The other party obviously didn't expect Chen Tian to dodge these two blows unscathed, and the attack was obviously sluggish, obviously a little surprised.
But Chen Tian was hit by these two sneak attacks, and he jumped forward first to block in front of the crazy uncle, afraid that the other party would attack the crazy uncle.
Then, Chen Tian slammed his right foot, picked up a stone the size of a skull at his feet, held the handle of the knife with his right hand, and slammed the stone with the knife surface with his left hand
Head.
The stone escaped in the direction of the sneak attack just now, although Chen Tian did not know the opponent's position, he had a way to force the other party out.
I saw that the originally intact stone suddenly exploded after galloping halfway, and the rubble instantly covered a large area.
Chen Tian was just a non-martial artist, and he had no true qi in his body, so it was extraordinary to be able to do this.
This was the sudden explosion of the dark energy hidden in Chen Tian when he hit the stone, causing the stone to explode.
This sudden explosion not only greatly increases the range of the attack, but also makes the speed of the rubble even faster.
Chen Tian had relied on this unexpected move to defeat the enemy many times, and this time he was also confident in this move.
The rapidly dispersed rubble obviously caught the opponent by surprise, and they could only fly out of the hiding place to dodge beyond the range of the rubble.
"I see you!"
Chen Tian's eyes lit up, he handed the knife to his right hand, and chased after the black shadow quickly.
"Where to run!"
Chen Tian took three steps and made two steps, and finally jumped directly into the air and slashed downward with a knife in both hands.
In Chen Tian's opinion, the other party did not directly rush out to attack him at the first time, but chose to use a secret weapon to sneak attack in the dark, which was timidity to his own strength.
And the figure of the other party dodging at the moment was extremely embarrassed, in Chen Tian's opinion, it was a signal to flee in the wilderness, so Chen Tian chose to fly and slash recklessly.
Although this blow was enough to make the opponent incapacitated, Chen Tian, who was in the air, also lost the space to dodge.
It was this erroneous judgment that made Chen Tian almost die in the ensuing battle.
The black shadow that had fled suddenly turned around smartly, and at the same time, his right hand threw out a hidden weapon again.
Chen Tian secretly shouted, "Not good", but he couldn't dodge it in the air at the moment.
At such a short distance, he collided head-on with the opponent's prepared secret weapon, Chen Tian's situation was already very dangerous at this time, and his years of cultivation and combat experience came into play again at this moment.
Chen Tian was originally in the air like a full bow, but at this moment, he curled his body backwards, and at the same time turned the knife into a block, using the blade to resist the opponent's hidden weapon.
At this time, Chen Tian's body in the air completely changed to a defensive stance, so that the pursuit advantage caused by his surprise gravel attack before was gone.
In the eyes of some martial artists, Chen Tian's decision was obviously unwise.
After all, even if Chen Tian was unable to dodge the hidden weapon in the air because of his mental calculation and unintentional calculation before, the advantage of this pursuit and the power of the attack in the air had already been established, if this knife was cut down, the opponent would either die or be disabled, and he would not be able to rebuild such a defensive posture just in the face of a hidden weapon.
In the eyes of ordinary people, even if it is an injury in exchange for an injury, Chen Tian is also earned.
But Chen Tian soon rejoiced in his decision.
The huge impact transmitted from the knife surface made Chen Tian almost unstable and threw the knife out.
"How so!?"
Chen Tian's eyes were full of shock, on the one hand, the other party's seemingly understated secret weapon exploded with an amazing impact at the moment it touched the knife surface.
This is different from the dark energy that Chen Tian used before, and the other party's secret weapon contains true qi!
This shows that the other party is definitely a martial artist, and he is a martial artist above the Walker Realm.
This made Chen Tian a little panicked.
On the other hand, Chen Tian finally saw the appearance of the other party's secret weapon at close range.
It's a skull!
Thinking back to the white light that flashed in the time and space where the two hidden weapons flew before, it must also be a bone that I don't know a certain part of.
This discovery allowed Chen Tian to be sure of two things.
First, this person should be the murderer of the street corpse case in the file; Second, this person is extremely strong and is by no means an opponent.
Compared to the secret weapons usually used by martial artists, even if it is only a low-grade secret weapon, its strength is far above the bones.
And judging from the fight just now, the opponent's attack with bones alone has made Chen Tian a little difficult to parry, if it is really a death battle, Chen Tian has a chance of winning
Don't save one. Look at the book
Thinking of this, Chen Tian took advantage of the impact of the opponent's attack, rolled back after landing, and smoothly rolled to the side of the crazy uncle.
"Crazy Boy, Run!"
At this time, Chen Tian didn't care about explaining to the crazy uncle, so he picked up the crazy uncle with his left hand and ran out.
At this time, Chen Tian had no idea of arresting the other party, and only thought about how to take the crazy man to escape.
But Chen Tian's idea of bringing the crazy uncle is obviously stupid, he is not the opponent of the other party when he fights with all his hands, and with the burden of the crazy uncle, it is obvious that even escaping has become a luxury.
Before Chen Tian could take a few steps, the sound of breaking the air behind him made him have to give up running and turn around to deal with it.
Chen Tian turned out the knife flower with the knife in his right hand, blocking the hidden weapons thrown by the other party one after another.
But after this wave of attacks, Chen Tian's right hand was already numb, and the moves on his hand began to lose shape.
"Oops!"
Chen Tian responded while paying attention to the other party's every move.
At this time, the other party had already hidden his body in the dark, but Chen Tian could vaguely distinguish the shape.
I saw that in the darkness, the silhouette of the other party appeared so thin that it was not commensurate with the strength it showed.
What made Chen Tian even more puzzled was that the other party's action of escaping when he was dodging the gravel before, or the form of standing in place and throwing the hidden weapon at the moment, all seemed strangely incongruous.
"He's got a leg wound!"
After several waves of attacks, Chen Tian finally discovered the opponent's weakness.
The other party should have an injured leg, no wonder Chen Tian felt that the other party was crawling on all fours like an animal when he was chasing before, and it turned out that his hands had to choose to use the ground to assist the injured legs.
This made Chen Tian see hope, in this way, as long as he escaped the attack range of the opponent's hidden weapon, the crisis would naturally be lifted.
Thinking of this, Chen Tian began to choose to use flexible movement to deal with the opponent's attack. At the same time, he was also waiting for an opportunity, and as soon as the opponent's attack stopped for a moment, he immediately accelerated and fled outward, never looking back.
But Chen Tian still missed the impact of carrying Crazy Uncle on himself, although Crazy Uncle was not heavy, but the restriction of his left hand directly caused the flexibility of his body method to be lost by half.
Under such a stalemate, it was obvious that Chen Tian's consumption was even greater, and if he was not careful, Chen Tian was left with a few blood marks by the other party, but fortunately, they were all skin injuries.
But Chen Tian also saw his current situation clearly at the moment, either he left the crazy man and fled alone, or he could only be consumed and died here.
Reason told Chen Tian that he could only give up the crazy man and flee alone at this time, but emotion made Chen Tian unable to make a decision for a long time.
At this time, Chen Tian was hovering back and forth between the pain of reason and the limit of his physical strength, and finally Chen Tian made an inhuman decision.
I saw that Chen Tian suddenly let go of the crazy man, and then uncharacteristically did not hide towards the periphery, but rushed towards the other party.
The other party obviously didn't expect Chen Tian to make such a move, and hurriedly increased the throwing density of the hidden weapon, trying to stop Chen Tian's action, but Chen Tian had already rushed to the close at the cost of injury.
At this time, Chen Tian was only three steps away from the other party, but his body suddenly slowed down.
This time, Chen Tian did not choose to fly and slash like before, but instead withdrew the knife to his waist, and then the whole person slowly bowed down.
At this time, Chen Tian's breathing calmed down, and he was neither panicked nor impulsive in the face of the oncoming hidden weapon, and quickly drew the knife with his right hand while exhaling deeply.
At this moment, the black clouds in the sky seemed to be blown away a little, and the garbage in the garbage dump was windless and automatic.
This knife is Chen Tian's strongest blow now, and it is called "Drawing Knife".
This trick was learned by Chen Tian and the eldest grandson back then, and it was born out of the "sword drawing style", which was a little less "straight" than the eldest grandson's "straight" sword realm, but a little more "pulling" domineering.
I saw that Chen Tian's knife suddenly appeared in front of him, swept away the hidden weapon with the momentum of sweeping thousands of troops, and then actually contained a bit of sword qi and slashed at the other party.
As a non-martial artist with no true qi, Chen Tian was able to do this step and already surpassed most martial artists in the Walker Realm.
but
The strangeness of the other party was beyond Chen Tian's imagination, and the body that looked extremely thin was easily blocked by just some skin injuries under his strongest blow.
But this blow also made Chen Tian see a little bit of the other party's true face, and under the fright, Chen Tian didn't have time to turn around and run towards the crazy man not far away, wanting to take advantage of this short gap to escape with the crazy uncle.
However, as soon as Chen Tiancai stretched out his hand, a hidden weapon struck again.
The hidden weapon directly pierced Chen Tian's left shoulder.
Chen Tian completely lost the chance to save the crazy uncle, gritted his teeth to endure the sharp pain from his left shoulder, and escaped from the garbage dump in a flash.
The other party did not pursue Chen Tian and left, waited in place for a long time, and saw that Chen Tian did not return before slowly walking out of the darkness, the shape was like a lame stray dog dragging the stump and crawling.
The lame man slowly crawled to the side of the crazy man, revealing his scrawny hands with strange black lines.
The madman let out a miserable and terrifying cry when he saw the lame man.
"A man-eating ghost, a man-eating ghost!"
The lame man ignored the crazy man, put his hand into the placket of his chest, and took out a blood-red object from it, and a faint smell of blood immediately wafted out.
However, the strange thing is that the crazy man immediately calmed down after smelling the smell, and after a while, his eyes turned into longing madness, and he muttered excitedly: "Eat meat, eat meat......
The lame man casually threw out the things in his hand, and the crazy man immediately crawled to the lame man's feet like a wild dog and gnawed on it.
The lame man brushed one hand on the crazy uncle's dirty hair, like stroking his dog, but his eyes looked at the place where Chen Tian had disappeared, outlining a strange and lonely outline in the dark.
