Chapter 33: The Two Men Fight
The sky was getting dark, the afterglow of the setting sun was fading, and the two figures came to an inn wearily. The inn building is simple, with lanterns hanging under the eaves, dotted with a faint warm yellow light.
The two walked into the inn, and the shopkeeper at the door greeted him with a smile, and said enthusiastically: "Guest officer, welcome to Qingfeng Inn, what do you need?" ”
Hearing the shopkeeper's question, Xiao Han smiled slightly and said, "We want to find two quiet and comfortable rooms to live in without disturbing other guests." Zhuang Shishi also nodded slightly, signaling that they wanted to arrange two quiet rooms.
The shopkeeper respectfully agreed and led them into the inn. As they walked through an antique courtyard, they heard the sound of a clear spring, and the bleak autumn wind blew through the leaves, slowly wafting a hint of coolness.
Outside the room, the shopkeeper opened the door, and the fresh wood fragrance came to his face. The room is simple and elegantly furnished, with a mahogany table and two armchairs in front of the window, and a beautifully patterned carpet on the floor.
Zhuang Shishi walked into the room and felt a trace of tranquility and warmth. They put down their bags and sat by the window, through which they could see the stars twinkling in the distance, and the breeze brought a touch of coolness.
At this time, Xiao Han also walked into his room, and when he saw the soft big bed, he pounced on it without thinking.
"It was not easy to ride a horse for the first time. However, I thought the experience was worth it! Xiao Han said to himself with his eyes glued to the ceiling, his eyes revealing a hint of exhaustion and satisfaction.
Although I was physically tired, I felt a sense of accomplishment deep down.
Xiao Han's eyelids pressed down heavily, and a wave of sleepiness hit him, making him feel unusually tired, which made him almost fall into a deep sleep.
At that moment, there was a slight knock on the door. The knock on the door, though light, was particularly clear on this quiet night. This sudden voice shook his heart, and he instantly sobered up a little.
He turned his head and stared at the door, a hint of confusion in his eyes. Who will knock at the door at this time? He was speculating in his heart, and at the same time felt a hint of alarm.
However, the knocking on the door did not stop, and continued to sound regularly. He felt his body getting heavier and his mind slowing down, as if he were trapped in a dream.
The knock on the door grew more and more urgent, as if something important was waiting for him to respond.
"Who!" Xiao Han shouted unhappily.
"It's me!" A female voice came from outside the door, which sounded like Zhuang Shishi's voice.
However, the knock on the door kept knocking on his mind, struggling to make him take a heavy step. He paced slowly to the door, twisting the doorknob with a trembling hand.
The door slowly opened, revealing a faint light. In the dim light, he saw an anxious face.
A pair of eyes stared at him anxiously, as if they had something important to tell him.
"Excuse me, did my knock on the door disturb you?" The person who came apologized softly, and there was a hint of apology in his tone.
Xiao Han struggled to squeeze out a smile and replied in a hoarse voice, "No, it's okay." Can I help you? ”
Zhuang Shishi said apologetically: "The boss asked me to pay for the accommodation first, and I just remembered that I forgot to bring the money, can you help me pay the money?" ”
Xiao Han glanced at the corridor and looked at the dim lights outside, and a wave of worry welled up in his heart. He knew it was an unsafe environment, especially at night.
The lights are dim, casting messy and unstable shadows. The faint yellow light could not effectively illuminate everything around him, and he could barely make out some vague outlines around him.
"Okay! I'll go with you. Xiao Han sighed and said.
"I see you're a little tired, I'd better go, you go and rest!" Zhuang Shishi said with a smile.
Xiao Han slapped his cheeks, using his mental willpower to resist the invasion of fatigue. He told himself to persevere, not to let his eyes close again.
"You're not worried about me?" Zhuang Shishi asked.
"It's very desolate here, and you're a girl, so it's inevitable that it's a little dangerous!" Xiao Han replied.
Zhuang Shishi covered her mouth and smiled, "I didn't expect you to think about girls, but I'm not an ordinary girl, I'm very capable of fighting!" ”
"Huh!"
"What? You don't believe it? Zhuang Shishi saw that Xiao Han looked down on herself and was a little displeased.
"You should be the kind of girl who doesn't let her eyebrows go, and she has a certain foundation in martial arts, even if this strength is your weakness." Xiao Han added.
Zhuang Shishi was so angry that she stomped her feet, her forehead was furrowed, and her eyebrows were slightly twisted together. There was a hint of anger and dissatisfaction in her eyes, and the sparks in her eyes seemed to flicker.
She clenched her fists hard, her lips closed, and spoke word by word, with a hint of anger in her voice.
"Do you dare to accept my challenge?"
"Yes!"
······
The two of them looked for a clearing, and suddenly, a gust of wind blew, which also made the surrounding environment even more messy, and the leaves flew and rustled.
At this time, the two stood in place, their eyes intertwined.
Xiao Han originally thought that after two months of hard training, his swordsmanship had improved a lot, and coupled with the careful guidance of the Bailuo Sect Master, he was already invincible among his peers. But I didn't expect it······
After a while, Xiao Han took out the long sword that Bai Luo gave him, and said lightly, "Where is your weapon?" ”
"Of course, it's in my ring, who will always carry a weapon like you now!"
With that, Zhuang Shishi took out a spear from the ring and threw it heavily on the ground.
Seeing this scene, Xiao Han's heart sank, and the momentum on his body suddenly weakened a little.
At night, the moon is clear, and a man and woman stand on the top of an ancient mountain. The cold wind howled, and the costumes on the two of them hunted in the night wind.
The news that the two were going to compete unconsciously reached the ears of every guest in the inn, and they left everything behind and poured out from the door of the inn one after another, wanting to see how the two were martial arts.
Although it is not yet winter, you can still feel the cool breath, and in the cool wind, people put on light coats or scarves to ward off the cold.
The entrance of the inn was full of people, and they all turned their heads to look, perhaps because there were a few bright lights at the entrance of the inn, or maybe because there was a place to block the wind.
Xiao Han turned his head to look, only to see a large group of people surrounding the two of them, and couldn't help but curse: "Hey! When did so many people come to watch? ”
Just when Xiao Han was stunned, Zhuang Shishi shouted: "Dare to be distracted at this time!" ”
As soon as the words fell, after speaking, Zhuang Shishi jumped and flew towards Xiao Han. ······
