Chapter 318: Eros and Lust
Instead of sneaking up on Xiao Yao, Qiong An gave him a chance at a seemingly fair showdown.
This is good.
The remaining half of the giant shadow stopped moving, and seemed to look over with interest.
Yu Luying finally managed to get up and watched the duel with a confused expression.
Of course, we all know that fairness is relative, and absolute fairness is absolutely non-existent.
Driving a motorcycle to deal with a horse rider sounds outrageous at first glance, but Xiao Yao thinks it's actually okay.
After all, this is a dry frame, not a racing car (horse).
She's going to let her go as fast as she wants, and it's better to kill her headlong in my spear.
Xiao Yao thinks that the trajectory of motorcycles is actually a little more rigid than that of horses.
Especially in which direction the car is going to go, it must be controlled by the rider, and the action of breaking the handlebar, Xiao Yao is confident that he should be able to see clearly.
As a result, spears are also easier to stab.
Wait a minute......
I......
I don't have a spear.
Xiao Yao only had a long sword in his hand, and when he sat on horseback, it didn't look so long.
Another disadvantage of the longsword is that it cannot pierce the armor, but Joan only wears a leather coat and has no shield - say thank you, Joan.
It would be fairer if the spear appeared out of thin air in his hand at the moment before the two sides intertwined.
Of course, peaches can't be used as a basis for strategy.
Now I have a serious calf injury, and I can't sit completely upright on the horse.
Xiao Yao struggled to recall the descriptions of the knights he had seen.
In this case, even if he can stab Qiong'an, he may fly backwards due to the interaction of forces, and then hit the ground heavily.
In general, it's not much different from jumping out of a motorcycle traveling at high speeds.
Maybe I should throw my sword after stabbing the other person.
It was rare for the horse to run, and the wind was blowing under its hooves, completely devoid of the sickly appearance just now.
From the time he took the initiative to save Shen Jie just now, Xiao Yao had already seen it.
This guy is completely pretending to be a pig and eating a tiger.
This was Xiao Yao's first time riding a horse, and he didn't know how to command a horse at all.
The reins were just decorations, and it was rare for the horses to communicate with him.
Or, he and Don Quixote have the same heart, and it is Lao Tang who is riding a horse.
Therefore, at the moment of convergence, he should also be able to trust Lao Tang's judgment and let his muscle memory play out.
The rare speed of the horse is getting faster and faster, and Joan has gone from a small black dot in the distance to a close one in a matter of seconds.
Xiao Yao took a deep breath, and the hilt of the sword in his hand tightened.
Joan's position appeared to her left, her right hand gripping, and her left hand was already waving the whip high.
Xiao Yao knew that the front of her car could shoot nuclear thermal energy, which was very bad for herself.
He thinks that Qiong'an shouldn't use it, because it's not much honor, but he really believes that the villain has honor, and pins his life on it, how much of his brain is a bit expensive.
Xiao Yao wanted to cut to Qiong'an's left side, but he felt that there was a half chance that people and horses would be killed.
That would be a great shame.
How about swapping shields between the right and left hands? No, the left hand doesn't make the sword ...... at all. It's too risky.
But now, it would be difficult for the sword in the right hand to stab the enemy on the left hand.
Xiao Yao was a little flustered.
An emotion called fear begins to amplify inside.
It's not a turn-based game, and there's no way for him to press the spacebar to pause and think slowly.
Instinctively, he bent down and pressed himself against the rare neck of the squire.
Xiao Yao and Qiong'an are staggered.
Joan didn't hit him, nor did she spew out nuclear heat or anything.
Her leather whip hit Xiao Yao with unmistakable accuracy.
Not only that, but the leather whip was wrapped around his stomach three or four times.
Xiao Yao got up from the ground lightlyβno, off the horse.
Whistling through the sky at high speed.
My mind began to look back on the wonderful life of the past 16 years like a movie.
Countless joyful, sad, moving, painful, warm, regretful moments.
He saw the half of the shield he had thrown out with his left hand whirling around and cutting straight into Joan's neck.
Maybe it's because the shattered side of the shield is a little sharp, or maybe it's Qiong'an's high speed that adds strong kinetic energy to this shield.
Her neck seemed to be severed by a razor-sharp katana.
The girl's beautiful face flew into the air under the concealment of the mask, and the corners of her mouth had an unbelievable look.
On the headless body, the large artery at the broken neck rushed upward, like a small fountain.
The whip in Qiong'an's hand came out, so Xiao Yao didn't crash into the rockery as she had planned, but instead fell into a relatively soft sandy field.
The girl let go of her right hand that was holding the accelerator, and her hands frantically scratched at the broken part of her neck, like a suffocating person, and as if she was saying "Where's my head"?
Xiao Yao and Qiong'an's heads fell to the ground at the same time, the young man's helmet shattered into three or four petals, and the violent impact made him fall black in front of his eyes and pass out before he could have time to pain.
The lesson of this story is that young people should not be "ghosts" just because they think they are cool, and that whether they are riding a motorcycle or a horse, they should wear a helmet in a standardized manner.
β¦β¦
β¦β¦
β¦β¦
When he woke up again, the boy found himself lying in the soft arms of the girl.
This feeling is somewhat familiar, as if lying in his mother's arms, and it reminds him of the time when he went to Huinan University Town, when he was unconscious on the bus, and when he woke up, he found himself lying in Shen Jie's arms.
What a nostalgic time, Xiao Yao thought.
However, unlike that time, Xiao Yao felt his chest on the top of his head...... There is a little bit of flatness.
However, unlike that time, Xiao Yao felt his chest on the top of his head...... There is a little bit of flatness.
The young man raised his head and saw Yu Luying's face.
Shen Jie sat crookedly next to Yu Luying, wrapped in Xiao Yao's white cloak, panting, and holding hands with Yu Luying.
It's still pitch black β is it that the shadow time hasn't finished yet, or is it that you've been unconscious for so long that it's getting dark?
Xiao Yao was only chaotic for a few seconds before he figured out the situation in front of him.
Shadow time, still going on.
"Are you awake?" Yu Luying said: "Sister, Brother Xiao Yao is awake." β
"That's good, that's good." Shen Jie's voice was very weak. With some hesitation, she reached out and gently touched the top of Xiao Yao's head.
Then, Xiao Yao, together with Yu Luying and Shen Jie, set his eyes on the headless girl in front of Our Lady Mountain.
"Zombies?" Xiao Yao said: "Is it impossible to die like this? β
The headless girl was still wearing Joan's leather coat, and she knew who she was at a glance.
At this moment, she was on her knees, holding a plate in her left hand with a human head in it.
Xiao Yao saw the appearance of the human head clearly, and was greatly shocked, and quickly turned his head to look at Shen Jie, and then breathed a sigh of relief.
"Terrible, isn't it?" Yu Luying didn't notice Xiao Yao's small movements: "I saw my head being served on a plate." β
Own head? Xiao Yao felt confused.
"Are you seeing my head?" Xiao Yao asked cautiously.
"Who's not your head?" Yu Luying asked inexplicably, "Sister, am I dazzled?" β
"No," Shen Jie replied weakly, "It's Xiao Yao's, that's right." β
Yu Luying asked Xiao Yao: "Could it be that you are seeing someone else?" Who do you see? β
Xiao Yao prevaricated vaguely: "No, no, it's meβso what are we doing sitting here now?" β
"This ...... It is...... Sha ......" Shen Jie erupted into a violent cough, and blood coughed out.
"Shen Jie, are you okay?" Xiao Yao was shocked and asked a.
Nonsense, of course there is something.
"Sister, let me tell you," Yu Luying took over. She seems to have only injured her leg, so compared to Shen Jie, she can be regarded as very energetic: "This should be her real spiritual fortress, that is, the final incarnation - Salome." β
"Salome?" Xiao Yao's head was still in a sharp pain: "I seem to have heard this name somewhere." β
Yu Luying said: "At that time, when the marquis Herod heard of Iesu's fame, he said to his servants, 'This is John the Baptist, who has risen from the dead; That's why these abilities work on him. For the sake of his brother Philip's wife, Herode, had arrested John and imprisoned him, because John had told him, "Thou shalt not possess this woman!" Herod intended to kill him, but he was afraid of the crowd because they all thought of John as a prophet. On Herod's birthday, Herodia's daughter danced in the middle of the banquet and pleased Herod; For this, Herod swore that whatever she asked, she would give her. At her mother's instigation, she said, "Please give me John's head on a plate on the spot!" The king was very melancholy, but for the sake of the oath and the people who sat with him, he commanded it to her. So he sent for John's head in the prison, and put it on a plate, and brought it to the girl. The girl took it and gave it to her mother. John's disciples came, took the body, buried it, and reported it to Iesu. β
"Hey, my cousin raised it." Xiao Yao commented: "Let me guess, this girl's name is Salome." β
"It doesn't seem to be her name in the Bible, like," Yu Luying continued to take on the role of the boss's background narrator, "but people say that her name is Salome." β
"I remember," Xiao Yao said, "I seem to have heard somewhere, saying that she is also a very famous vicious witch, the originator of witches, anyway, the big witch or something, I don't know." β
"In the 18th century, the story was adapted into a play by Oscar Wilde," Yu Luying continued: "In the play, Salome, because of the rejection of her courtship to John, angrily asked King Herod to behead John, took John's head in his hand and kissed it, and possessed John in this bloody way. β
"Hah!" Xiao Yao laughed: "Isn't this just sick Jiao?" β
"For this reason, Salome is also seen as a symbolic word for eros." Shen Jie added weakly.
"Very interesting," Xiao Yao commented, "but how do you all know so well?" β
"Uncle just said." Yu Luying told Xiao Yao.
"Which uncle? No, aren't your two uncles in the Eucharistic room? Xiao Yao said: "So this still doesn't answer the question I just asked - what are we sitting here now?" Why don't you go up and divide her in fifths? Oh, you both can't move, can you? β
"Both of them tried," a male voice came from behind Xiao Yao, "neither Queen Mary nor Cinderella could break through Salome's defensesβshe was invincible." β
"Woo-ah!" If Xiao Yao's legs were not problematic, he should have jumped up at this time: "What the hell?" β
The young man looked back with difficulty, and saw three or four people standing behind him, Yu Bo was standing in the middle of the body wearing the white sacrificial cloak, holding a large, round and white holy body wrapped in cloth in his hand, and Yu Paul was standing behind his brother, holding a large umbrella in his hand, holding it above Yu Bo's head.
Supporting the old man Yu was naturally Luzia.
Don't stand behind your back silently and be scared!
However, this method is very good, Xiao Yao thought. It's no wonder that there are no shadows in the vicinity any closer, and there is no trace of them.
"And what do you have to do to break through her defenses?" Xiao Yao didn't know who he was asking this question, or if he was talking to himself.
Yu Paul shook his head and said, "As far as I know, as long as you have a loved one in your heart and have lust for the other person, you can't make an effective attack on Salome. β
Xiao Yao: "? β
"Only a pure, pure-hearted man can move his spiritual fortress beyond Salome's defenses of eros." Paul Yu explained.
"No, how do you know? Do you know so well? Xiao Yao blurted out: "Then according to what you say, I don't have to try it directly." β
"I think so." Yu Paul replied.
"That being said, let's give it a try." Yu Texuan said.
Xiao Yao closed his eyes and concentrated his attention.
"Okay...... Is it? Shen Jie said angrily: "Don't be too reluctant. β
A quixote phantom came out from behind Xiao Yao, riding a rare horse, holding a spear in both hands - it turns out that you have a spear! - Charge towards Salome.
When the tip of the spear was about to stab the headless girl's lower abdomen, it was suddenly bounced open by an invisible barrier, and then broken in two, Xiao Yao's tiger mouth shook, and gurgling blood flowed out.
"Ah, Xiao Yao......" Yu Luying exclaimed.
At this moment, the ribbon fish wore briefs and held a communicator in his hand, and ran over in a hurry, followed by a girl wrapped in a red cloak.
Xiao Yao frowned, how did this guy wear briefs and bring the communicator on his body?
"Attack." Yu Bo spat out these two words succinctly.
Ribbon fish was obviously taken aback when he saw Salome, looked at the head on the plate, then at Yan Xiao, then at the head on the plate, and then at Yan Xiao.
And Yan Xiao was also frightened, and turned his eyes away, not daring to look at the headless body.
"Attack!" Yu Paul urged: "Salome is channeling the shadow energy, if it drags on any longer, it will explode, and everything will be ruined!" β
"I ...... I don't know how to summon the fortress on the shore," Obiyu said, "I'm afraid I'll hurt you by mistake when attacking at sea - can't I use my own fists?" β
Everyone frowned and looked at each other.
"Don't worry," said the fish, "I'll feel the feeling again, look for the feeling." β
"Third brother," Yu Baolu turned to Yu Bo: "You can't wait any longer, you can't delay any longer, hasn't your fortress been restored?" β
Yu Bo thought for a moment, with a look of reluctance on his face, and carefully handed the holy body in his hand to Yu Paulo's hands with both hands.
Seeing this, the old man Yu specially selected him and hurriedly took the umbrella in Yu Paulo's hand and propped it on top of Yu Paulo's head.
"I'll give it a try." Yu Bo said.
