Chapter 68: Saburo's Death
Wild birds flutter their wings, hungry tigers compete.
A mad giant bird named Su Xiqing flapped its wings, and thirteen scimitars danced into a raging wind. As Du Chengfeng's beast, he didn't give in, and under the alternation of seventeen sharp knives, he actually beat the mad giant bird so hard that he couldn't even land.
"Take a bite of me! You can share it with me! ”
Su Xiqing flapped his wings and his eyes were scarlet.
"Why don't you take a bite of me! You don't even eat it yourself! Then why don't you take a bite of me! Why do you have to go against me! Why! ”
“……”
Du Chengfeng was just silent.
Why? He didn't know, or rather, he never thought about it.
Is it to protect these people? Is the morality of the Taiping people at work? Or is it more like a hero who fights hard in front of him?
I don't know, he never thought about these things.
The sword soldier's evil qi surged in his body, and the noisy shouts in his mind gradually converged into the most primitive and simple killing intent.
All he wanted was to pounce on the big bird in mid-air and eat it raw on the spot.
Just like all felines do.
"Ho Ho Ho ......"
As the canine teeth lengthened, the beast named Du Chengfeng even changed its voice, and the roar of some kind of fierce beast was more like the roar of some kind of fierce beast that came out of its throat than a roar of fighting.
The sword and soldier aura in his body was already overflowing, and even seeped out of the pores around his body, turning into one fine hair after another, fluttering in the wind.
The clouds are from the dragon, and the wind is from the tiger.
And under this huge pressure, Su Xiqing in mid-air also became more and more fierce.
The thirteen arms were eaten by Su Xiqing into his mouth, which made Su Xiqing's body more and more similar to some kind of giant bird. The structure of the lower limbs, which originally looked like human legs, gradually became two sharp curved blades. Crimson blood flickered above the blade, plowing furrows and ravines across the earth.
Under the life-and-death struggle, both monsters are unconsciously changing, changing in some unknown direction.
They are evenly matched.
They don't die.
“…… Who can win? ”
On the ground, Carpenter Li, who had already collapsed on the ground in fright, muttered to himself.
Obviously, this level of combat has long had nothing to do with ordinary people like him, or it has nothing to do with all the ordinary people present - if there is anything to do with it, it is that who wins and who loses determines whether they live or die.
If Du Chengfeng can win, they may still survive.
If that terrible bird wins......
"Can you win?"
Carpenter Li muttered to himself.
"You're going to win, aren't you?"
"Not necessarily, Uncle Li."
A familiar voice sounded behind Carpenter Lee.
"Now they are indeed evenly matched, but Du Chengfeng ...... He can't fly. If it really goes on like this, that strange bird can fly away, it can fly far away, it can go to Yanzhou, it can go to Youzhou. When that time comes, we'll ......"
"Saburo?"
Carpenter Li turned around in shock, only to find that Yang Sanlang, who was supposed to be hiding in the mountains, was already standing behind him at some point.
"What are you doing here? You...... Wait, who told you to take this? ”
Carpenter Li, who came back to his senses, saw that behind him, in Yang Sanlang's hand, he was carrying the Yang family's ancestral, thick knife.
"What are you going to do!"
Carpenter Li's heart instantly cooled by half.
Yang Sanlang has always wanted to take this knife back, he knows it, after all, Yang Sanlang ran to steal the knife, he has even seen it a few times with his own eyes - but this kind of thing is meaningless, anyway, Yang Sanlang can't bear the horror of the knife every time, and he can't even touch the handle of the knife.
But now, this big knife has finally returned to Yang Sanlang's hands.
It is back in the hands of the true Yang heirs.
"Yang Saburo! Are you going to run! Are you going to run at such a time! ”
Carpenter Li couldn't help but clench his fists.
Although he also knew that this was the right choice, even the most correct choice, after all, the strange bird was fighting with Du Chengfeng right now, and now was the opportunity for their Yang clan to escape - as long as they took advantage of this opportunity to escape quickly, escape to Yanzhou, or even escape to Jiankang Jingshi further south, they would always be safe, and there would always be a time when the monster couldn't catch up.
But can it really be done?
Is it really good to do that? Carpenter Lee didn't know. This may be the best decision, as an ordinary person, he should probably run away, after all, he still has a wife and children, and he still has his own family - but he is the only one, but he doesn't want to leave for some reason, he doesn't want to leave here.
No matter how scared you are, you don't want to go, and you don't want to leave even if you can't stand up.
After all, his Du brother didn't leave either, did he?
The man who was able to leave the country from the beginning, the one who had always been able to abandon them and escape, didn't he go, did he?
"So you have to go...... Take my wife and children away. ”
Holding the old battle axe that had become ordinary in his hand, Carpenter Li stood up stiffly.
"San Lang, I watched you grow up, and you are for the Yang family, I also understand...... Then my wife and children will be handed over to you. ”
The more he stood up, the more relaxed Carpenter Li's figure became, until the moment he stood up straight, his legs didn't even tremble anymore.
Turning his head, Carpenter Li gently patted Yang Saburo on the shoulder.
"When the children grow up, I will tell them my story and tell them that their father is at least dead like a man...... Well? ”
The hand on Yang Saburo's shoulder was slapped away.
"Uncle Li, do you look down on me so much?"
obviously still had a smile on his face, but Yang Sanlang was already in tears.
"I know, I'm greedy for life, I'm afraid of death, I'm not so ruthless, I'm not so crazy...... I'm not as good as Du Chengfeng, my life is even given to me on credit by him, I always knew it. ”
yes, he's always known it, he just didn't want to admit it. No one would be willing to admit that he was cowardly and unbearable, let alone a leader of the younger generation of the Yang family like him - he has a prominent ancestor and a privileged life, even if the Yang family is now in decline, but at least on the Yang family side, he is still able to say that he exists.
That's why he will do whatever it takes for the Yang family.
As long as the Yang family can continue, this may be the fate of every generation of the Yang family. Perhaps it is precisely because the ancestor in the family tree once had no relatives and no reason, so each generation of the Yang family regards the family as the first priority - at least in Yang Sanlang's opinion, it doesn't matter whether he pulls down his old face like Yang Xuan does, or kills people like he once did.
"So, if you kill someone, you can get stronger, right......"
Saying this, Yang Saburo raised the big knife.
Seeing that the big sword of the cold light was raised, Carpenter Li couldn't help but subconsciously lift the battle axe.
But just when Carpenter Li thought that this crazy Yang Sanlang was going to cut off the big knife at himself.
That Yang Sanlang, but put the big knife across his neck.
"For the Yang family to continue, I will do whatever it takes."
Yang Sanlang, who was in tears and his legs were trembling, pulled out an ugly smile.
"They are all villagers in the township, and the clan uncle has broken his legs again, and the Yang family will ask Uncle Li to take care of it more in the future......"
"You!"
Carpenter Li, who sensed that something was wrong, hurriedly wanted to put down the axe and stop Yang Sanlang.
But the heavy knife had already cut Yang Sanlang's neck.
"Du! Multiply! Front! ”
With the last bit of strength, the heavy broadsword came out of Yang Saburo's headless corpse.
Just like the spear under the moon.
"Who?"
Seeing that a big knife suddenly flew from a distance and nailed it to his feet, the fierce beast named Du Chengfeng, who was fighting for life and death, couldn't help but be startled.
Fortunately, this big knife was too familiar to him, which made him subconsciously hold the hilt.
"Can you afford me now?"
At the moment when he held the hilt of the knife, there was a familiar voice, suppressing the countless noisy shouts in his mind.
"What......"
Du Chengfeng couldn't help but stand on the spot.
The tiger-like claws and hair on his body dissipated in an instant, and even the dragon-shaped scales on his skin gradually faded.
Instead, there was a blazing fire that bloomed again above the blade.
The flames shrouded his body, and Du Chengfeng at this moment was like wearing an invisible layer of flame armor.
"-Gah?"
Su Xiqing in mid-air let out a hoarse chirp.
"Don't you eat it? How can you ......?"
"Animals eat people."
With a swing of the broadsword, a fiery blade five feet long swept through.
Feeling the big knife in his hand that had recovered and even become stronger, Du Chengfeng looked up at the flesh and blood monster bird in the sky.
This time, he was not fighting alone.
