Volume 1 Jianghu Chapter 5 Glimmer
"Miss." The man with his hand on Yang Xi's left shoulder stood behind her and said, "Why are you here?" β
"Silly boy! You're scaring me to death......"
Hearing the familiar voice, she patted her chest, which had risen and fallen slightly, and was frightened into a cold sweat by this sudden Yang Wang, and she was busy panting.
Yang Xi turned around and watched Yang Wang's wit, thinking that the living corpse in that room would not deal with the two of them at the same time, let the silly boy lure the living corpse away, and then he could take the opportunity to rescue the baby! So she hurriedly said to the silly boy, "Come with me!" Hurriedly pulling the stupid boy who was at a loss to go back, Yang forgot to let the young lady hold her hand, but muttered: "The master is looking for you to go home......
"Let's talk about it, come with me first."
Inside the house, the dim light was desperately drawn from the moonlight outside the door, and you could see the person or ghost who fell to the ground, the person or ghost who was lying on the ground hugging the baby in swaddling clothes, the baby's cry came and went, attracting more cold wind and leaves, and in the continuous creaking of the wooden doors on both sides, everything was so orderly and noisy, but it couldn't startle a little dust.
But soonβ
The remaining whimpering winter wind cleans the silent Jiangcheng over and over again.
"No matter how terrible the stuff in the meeting is, if you see him chasing you, you run, and the faster you run, the better! Remember? β
The silly boy in Yang Xi's mouth nodded stunned, and walked to the door of the house according to the instructions of the young lady, while Yang Xi hid under the plaque of the shop on the adjacent street and made a head, and she scolded the silly boy while gesturing at the door: "Go, go!" β
With his back to the whitish moonlight, the man stepped through the door, towards the flickering yellow light.
At this time, the room where the baby was present became bright, and the lamp, which had been extinguished for a long time, flickered with flames, revealing some glimmers, and then gradually extended upwards, like an endless flame.
There was a sleeping woman lying on the bed, and on the floor next to the table lay a naked and shirtless catcher, and lying on the ground was a man who had fainted with fright by the door before, and from inside it could be clearly seen that his yellow skin was pale by the moonlight, covered by the fallen leaves and stars.
And the only person standing at the table looked at the man who was lying on his back.
He placed his sword on the table and ran his hand through the long hair that covered his eyes until his eyes were bright. His other hand slowly pushed the lamp to his face, as if feeling the heat of the scorching light, and he whispered, "You hide in the dark, and I will guide you with the light." β
The man who was hunched looked up, revealing one scab after another that had been burned by the fire, and the blurred flesh seemed to be mixed together, and the fresh blood bloomed like flowers at the corners of his mouth, like a bloodthirsty demon in the flickering light. Only his eyes moved, full of shock.
He looked at the people in front of him as if he had seen a cloud of smoke from the past.
I saw the living corpse lying on the ground howl violently, and rushed towards the bright person with the dagger in his hand, the man standing next to the table quickly put down the lamp, and pulled out the long sword placed on the table, a sword light flashed quickly, but found that the living corpse monster took his sword very easily, he turned sideways, and grinded forward against the dagger, grinding a burst of sparks.
All this happened in front of the door, in front of the man with his back to the moonlight.
The moonlight had shone through the slit in his shoulder on the man who was coming towards him, and his terrible countenance was unmistakably clear before him.
The living corpse used brute force to flick the sword-wielding man's sword away, but the dagger quickly stabbed the man in the doorway in the chest, and the man retreated in a panic, just as the other's sword was held off, but it was bounced away again. At this time, the dagger of the living corpse no longer turned to him at the door, but turned the handle of the knife and stabbed it downwards at the person who used the sword, carrying the wind, as if it had an overwhelming force!
The person who used the sword secretly said that it was not good in his heart, so he broke off and shouted: "The thirty-sixth style of the Wang family's swordsmanship!" The living corpse was only slightly stunned, but saw that the man with the sword leaned sideways, made a strong forward slash with two feet, and escaped from the sides of the crotch of the living corpse with a smooth blow.
He quickly got up, but unexpectedly, the clothes had been tightly grasped by the monster, and the long sword in his hand also fell to the ground with a "dang" sound.
"Wow, wow, wow......" The baby who fell in a pool of blood cried loudly, meeting the sound of the slapping wooden door in the growing night wind.
The light of the lamp flickered wildly, and the light in the room was constantly changing.
Yang forgot not to move, just looked at him.
He also looked at Yang Wang.
The sword on the ground was already against the throat of the living corpse, even though the sword trembled. Yang Xi was a little scared, she didn't dare to look at the living corpse, but squinted at the person who was grabbed by the living corpse and said, "I thought you were a hero, but I didn't expect it to be a pus!" Don't be ashamed! Don't shake! β
The person who was carried in the air by the living corpse turned his head and saw Yang Xi holding his sword against the throat of the living corpse, ignoring the words of contempt, and hurriedly shook his head to signal Yang Xi to take the life of the living corpse with a sword.
The living corpse "snorted" again, red blood oozed from the scab face and flowed all the way to his mouth, and at the same time, Yang Xi closed his eyes and stabbed in a panic, and a sword had pierced into his abdomen.
The blood-soaked face of the living corpse twitched, his eyes stared at the person next to the wooden door in the bright moonlight, a fierce light flashed in his eyes, he swung his dagger and cut off the sword in Yang Xi's hand, and the sword light suddenly shook the two of them with a deep internal force.
In the white fog, the man by the wooden door was still standing, but by the time he could see it, the living corpse was gone.
"Whew! survived......"
The man who fell to the ground breathed a sigh of relief.
Yang Forget slowly walked to the pool of blood and picked up the crying baby, and said to Yang Xi: "Miss, how is this baby placed?" β
"Miss, Miss, don't come out to walk the rivers and lakes if you're not brave enough!" The man stood beside Yang Xi and mocked, "But the thief escaped!" β
Yang Xi also saw that the living corpse had disappeared, but at this time she hammered her little head in annoyance, and when she heard the man say this, she was naturally angry, she threw down the broken sword and shouted: "You are a hero!" You've got what it takes! Don't get into someone's crotch! β
"You!" The man stared, and saw that the broken sword fell to the ground and some loneliness rose in the corner of his eye, but he still defended: "I was in a hurry!" Chivalry walks with danger, and this hero always needs to be flexible. β
Yang Xi ignored him and walked to the pool of blood, she glanced at the dead catcher on the ground, stretched out her foot and kicked his corpse, she was angry for a while: "You deserve it!" β
The silly boy crouched down and picked up the baby, walked over to the young lady, and handed the baby to her.
"My sword! Oh my sword! The self-proclaimed hero picked up the broken sword body on the ground in distress, but the sword belonged to Yang Xi.
"Look at your distressed look, isn't this just a sword. Miss Ben's sword is still very much! Yang Xi hugged the baby and said triumphantly, but unexpectedly, the guy came over and pulled the hem of her clothes and swayed with a smile: "Miss, since you have so many swords, can you give Xiaosheng a trick?" β
"Well, don't give it!" Yang Xi said with a grin.
At this moment, his smile froze instantly, and Qi Qiran turned away.
At this time, a lot of people had poured in outside, and the silly boy heard the young lady say, "Those people are fast, just leave them to them." β
When the silly boy walked on the empty street with the young lady on her back to return to the dart game, the young lady was still excitedly gesturing on his back, and she vividly described to those catchers how she drew her sword to help, how she stood up, how she almost lost her life after hardship, but heroically almost killed the living corpse under the sword!
The only thing she was unhappy about was that the other person pretended to be profound and said to the catchers: "This hero will not change his name or change his surname, his surname is Wang Jianqing, and it is a trivial matter to act chivalrous and righteous, but today he asked the thief who stole the baby to escape, and I will catch the thief one day!" β
She remembered that the man left with a heroic appearance, and she was not happy in her heart, she knocked Yang Wang's back slightly and said: "The person who calls himself a hero has no ability, and his ability to pretend is strong!" Dressed in rags, he really doesn't look like a good person! What do you think, silly boy? β
The silly boy was silent, still thinking about the living corpse from earlier.
At that time, the eyes that looked at him seemed to recognize themselves.
He woke up in a coma and forgot everything, including who he was, where his home was, and what he was doing.
Yang Xi knocked on his head again and asked him suspiciously, "Silly boy, what are you thinking?" I'm asking you! β
The silly boy came back from his thoughts, and he asked the young lady, "Miss, how do you think I have amnesia?" Who am I? Miss, you know what? β
"How do I know!" Yang Xi grinned and grabbed his two ears and said, "You don't care about it, aren't you doing well in the dart game now?" Some of them are good to eat and some to wear! You are my savior, I can support you for a lifetime, what are you worried about? β
The stupid boy has a lot of strength, and he can lift some goods in the dart game that two people can't lift, and the whole person is still stupid, and he can still carry himself on his back when he goes to school every day...... My father said that such people are good and don't use their brains.
"It hurts, it hurts."
Yang Wang's ears were red and painful.
Yang Xi said: "The pain is right, hurry up." β
"Miss, I'm so tired, can you go?"
"No, my foot is twisted, you can carry it again!"
"Miss, you're so heavy!"
"It hurts! Pain! Not heavy, not heavy! β
β¦β¦
Soon, the plaque of the Yang'an Dart Bureau was close in front of him.
There is a dark shadow standing at the gate of the dart game.
"Daddy!"
Yang Xi shouted at the man standing at the door of the dart game on the back of the silly boy.
The silly boy walked up quickly, Yang Xi jumped down from his back, cheered and hugged into the arms of Master Yang, Master Yang's originally anxious heart instantly opened up, he hugged Yang Xi, pinched Yang Xi's nose, and said worriedly: "Silly girl doesn't know how to come back so late, Daddy is talking about you in front of you!" Do you know how worried Daddy is about you? β
"Dad, you don't know, I just did chivalry, doing the right thing for heaven, and ......," Yang Xi said in a daze.
Master Yang's hand was on Yang Xi's back, he glanced at Yang Wang, and then only turned around and walked towards the inner door with Yang Xi. He said to Yang Xi: "If you don't study in the future, the girl's family should stay at home, how can there be a fool like you all day long, and you should find a family to take care of you." β
Yang Xishu wrapped his arms around his father's right arm and said, "Dad-"
When they entered, the silly boy was still standing some distance away from the door of the dart game.
For some reason, his mind always echoed the image of a little boy clamoring for a man to carry him, but the man always left his tall back to him, he covered his head with his hands, it hurt a little, and he tried to shake it off, only to get a little better.
He looked at the golden-locked gate and remembered that the master had given him a temporary name - "Yang Forget".
Yang forgot where he came from, he didn't know where he was going, he always felt a little lonely when he listened to the sound of the cold wind whistling.
"Night to four watches, beware of thieves!" The voice of the husband sounded again in the silent Jiangcheng, followed by the sound of gongs and drums: "Knock, knock!" Boom! Boom! ββ¦β¦ The sound of gongs and drums followed by the shouts of the husband.
Midnight has passed, the ugly time has arrived, it is the time when the people in Jiangcheng sleep the deepest, and it is also the time when the chickens and dogs are thieves.
The night is cool and breezy, and the dust is swept slowly.
