Chapter Seventy-Nine: A Helpless Duel (Part II)
Yan Feng looked at Hua Yun's disappearing back in a daze, and stretched out one hand into the air and kept groping for something. He seemed to want to grab something, to catch Hua Yun's back. It's a pity that what he grabbed was only the air flowing because Hua Yun ran by.
He didn't set off to catch up, and this time he chose to complete the duel and give up Hua Yun. It's just that he has a faint feeling in his heart that he has hurt Hua Yun's heart, and after parting with her this time, it may not be so easy to see her again in the future!
"No matter what the result is this time, whether I am alive or not, I will not bother you again, I also have my own promise to fulfill", Li Tianao said this quietly, his face expressionless. It's just that when he said this, his eyes stayed on Ziyin's body.
After saying this, he turned around with Ziyin and went back to his room. He and Yan Feng were both seriously injured, and they couldn't even make a move now. To fully recover, it will take at least 10 days to recuperate!
And the time of their duel was set for ten days later.
Maybe it's fate, maybe it's God's joke. Yan Feng went around and around, always going to that place. He had bypassed it, but now he couldn't escape!
Ten days later, the Fallen Soul Cliff is in full battle!
............
The room was silent, no sound. Obviously, there are still two people standing in this room, and the hearts of those two people are still beating. But they didn't move at all, standing like two statues.
Yan Feng stood silently in the center of the room, looking at the bed not far away. The bedding on the bed was a little messy and obviously untidy. There is still a person's fragrance left on it, whose one, the flowers!
Xiao Ruoyu stood silently behind Yan Feng, didn't say a word, and quietly accompanied him. She knew that Yan Feng was also a person who took a fancy to his friends, and it was definitely a huge blow to him that Hua Yun ran away because of his decision.
Looking at Hua Yun's bedding that had not yet been tidied up, Yan Feng suddenly sighed. His usual smile still hung on the corner of his mouth, but that smile had a touch of desolation.
"I have a feeling that my decision has hurt Hua Yun. Although I don't know why I hurt her, I can be sure"!
Xiao Ruoyu still bowed her head silently and did not take Yan Feng's words. She also has her own ideas, she is also a woman. Women, there are always thoughts and actions that men can't understand!
"She said that she had no relatives anymore and didn't know what happened to her?" Yan Feng thought back to Hua Yun's previous expression, and her heart was worried for a while, and she always felt that she owed her something.
"Could it be that her family has already been killed"?
"Judging from her martial arts cultivation and demeanor, she should also be a member of a big family in the rivers and lakes"!
Yan Feng couldn't help but be stunned when he heard Xiao Ruoyu's words, then smiled helplessly and said, "I have thought so too, but I have never heard that the family on the rivers and lakes is surnamed Hua"!
Xiao Ruoyu's brows furrowed slightly, she thought for a moment, and then said with a flickering gaze: "Perhaps, she is not surnamed Hua"!
Yan Feng raised his eyebrows slightly, and asked with some surprise: "Are you saying that she has been hiding her true identity, shouldn't she, she shouldn't be that kind of person!"
"Not necessarily", Xiao Ruoyu seemed to think of something, suddenly smiled, and said: "Maybe her famous family is not his father or uncle or something. ”
Yan Feng listened to Xiao Ruoyu's words, his brows furrowed slightly, and said, "What do you mean"?
Xiao Ruoyu shook her head, and then said with a somewhat self-deprecating smile: "Maybe I'm thinking too much", looking at Yan Feng's somewhat worried gaze, and the expression of always inadvertently paying attention to the bed on the side, he felt a sense of loss in his heart.
lowered his head and said a little gloomily: "You, aren't you going to chase her"?
Yan Feng said a word in surprise and paused, then turned his head to look at the open door of the room. Looking into the darkness and looking at the sky, it seems that the shadow of Hua Yun can be found in these things.
"No need", after a long time, Yan Feng sighed softly. "I don't mean to retract my decision, even if I can get her back, I will hurt her a second time"!
Xiao Ruoyu listened to Yan Feng's sigh and was silent. I don't know what it's like to have tasteless grains in my heart.
Fortunately, she is Xiao Ruoyu, she is just herself. is a woman who is different from other women, she never makes Yan Feng feel embarrassed.
"What are your chances of winning this duel?" Xiao Ruoyu asked softly.
From the time she saw Li Tianao, Xiao Ruoyu didn't speak. He had been silently watching Yan Feng, vigilantly surrounding him. Xiao Ruoyu will not interfere with the decisions he makes, she will only support him.
But just because she doesn't say it doesn't mean she's not worried.
Yan Feng was smiling, and his expression was very relaxed!
"Only fifty percent"? Xiao Ruoyu was stunned for a moment when she heard Yan Feng's words, and looked at him with some puzzlement. Yan Feng and Li Tianao's strength, she has seen it with her own eyes. When he was in that small teahouse, if Yan Feng hadn't been seriously injured, Li Tianao would definitely not be his opponent.
And after going through so many things, she sees Yan Feng's growth in her eyes. The current Yan Feng is definitely stronger than at the beginning, although Li Tianao defeated Mr. Yin and Yang and even killed them. But he was also very embarrassed, even seriously injured. Based on this alone, he should be inferior to Yan Feng. Xiao Ruoyu really couldn't understand why Yan Feng was only half sure!
Yan Feng smiled and looked at Xiao Ruoyu's puzzled eyes, he already understood Xiao Ruoyu's question in his heart. I don't know what's going on, the moment Yan Feng decides to change, he seems to be able to understand a lot of things that he didn't understand before.
"What you see is only one-sided, I have indeed improved, but why haven't others improved?" Yan Feng's expression was still relaxed, and he explained to Xiao Ruoyu.
"Yun Xiang defeated the ninth-ranked Dipper with the fifteenth-ranked Falling Snow Sword, and we can see his progress. And Li Tianao defeated Mr. Yin and Yang by himself, isn't it progress"?
"But he was seriously injured, obviously it was very reluctant to defeat Mr. Yin and Yang", Xiao Ruoyu still looked at Yan Feng with some incomprehension.
It wasn't until this moment that she realized that Yan Feng was no longer the original Yan Feng, he had become indifferent, wise, and incomprehensible. He knew what he couldn't understand, and he had a confidence that he didn't.
"Judging from the way he talked to me before, he is no longer the original Li Tianao. He was willing to go back to Ziyin, which shows that he has changed. It was true that he was injured at the hands of Mr. Yin and Yang, but that was only the strength when he didn't change. He has changed now, and the strength is definitely not that simple. Because, he has a concern."
Yan Feng quietly explained to Xiao Ruoyu, still smiling. Xiao Ruoyu listened to his explanation, but her heart was a little heavy. She didn't understand why Yan Feng was still laughing until now, it was obviously such a dangerous thing, and there was only a fifty percent chance of surviving.
At this moment, she suddenly understood why Hua Yun left angrily. Yan Feng is very interested in everything, but he is not interested in his own life. This kind of practice and behavior makes the people around him the most sad.
"Moreover, have you noticed the difference in his weapons", Yan Feng's voice sounded in Xiao Ruoyu's ears again, interrupting her thoughts. Looking up, I saw that Yan Feng's expression was still like that.
Xiao Ruoyu felt irritable in her heart, and she didn't know why she had such an emotion. Trying to suppress his emotions, he thought back to Li Tianao's situation at that time, and at the same time thought of his weapon.
"His weapon seems to have undergone some changes, it turned out that his weapon was a little dark purple, but now it is completely black", Xiao Ruoyu thought about it, his pupils suddenly shrank a little, and he said in surprise: "His current weapon is no longer the original weapon"!
Yan Feng looked at Xiao Ruoyu with a little approval, and then said without changing his face: "Yes, the weapon in his hand now is just an ordinary gun, and it is no longer a soul gun." Once his weapons contained mechanisms, and there was more than one. And now the gun in his hand is completely indistinguishable from an ordinary short gun."
Xiao Ruoyu's face was a little heavy, he frowned, and said, "This shows that he is now fully confident that he can win without those weapons with mechanisms"!
Yan Feng nodded, then shook his head slightly. Looking at Xiao Ruoyu's tightly knit brows, Yan Feng smiled at her and asked her not to be nervous.
"Not only that, he used to only want to win duels and nothing else. And now he is dueling with me, but there is only one result, so he no longer needs that soul gun. I said that there is a fifty percent chance of winning. It is already the largest estimate. ”
Xiao Ruoyu was shocked in her heart, and her eyes were immediately full of worry when she looked at Yan Feng. She didn't say anything to stop Yan Feng before because she had absolute confidence in Yan Feng. But now after Yan Feng said this, she could no longer maintain her confidence.
"Then you, why do you still have to promise him?" Xiao Ruoyu looked at Yan Feng, who still had a smiling face, and an impulse that she had never felt before suddenly surged in her heart.
"Beat up this guy who doesn't care about his life!"
Yan Feng listened to Xiao Ruoyu's words, the smile on his face gradually converged, his eyes turned to the side, and he didn't look at Xiao Ruoyu.
With a smile on his face, can he really laugh in his heart? How can a smile on his face really bring joy to his heart? Only now, he has to laugh, and only laughter can relieve the entanglement in his own heart.
No one knows how tired he is when he laughs.
Who said that Yan Feng didn't care about life, he cared more than anyone else. Less than half a year after leaving the island, he encountered something that interested him so much, and the task assigned by the master had not been completed, how could he not care about life?
It's just that sometimes, he doesn't have a choice.
"There are some things that cannot be solved by escaping, and there are some things that you can't escape!" Yan Feng didn't look at Xiao Ruoyu, and silently walked towards the door of the room, his words silently reaching Xiao Ruoyu's ears.
Repeated...
"There are some things you can't escape!"
"There are some things you can't escape!"
............
Over and over again, it echoed in Xiao Ruoyu's ears. She seemed to think of something and froze. She didn't even notice that Yan Feng had left this room, a picture was scattered in her mind, and a figure had been scattered. The figure that she hated all her life, and the figure that made her fear her whole life!
The figure opened its hideous face and smiled wickedly at her: "You can't escape, you can't escape, you can't escape ......!"
............
In the evening, the slanting sun shines on the ground. The shadow of everything in the world has become long, including man.
The wagons of the market, the running children, crushed and trampled the twisted shadows.
"Huh", a shining light streaked across a thick pine tree. I only heard a "bang", and the big tree fell down like that. And from the fracture where it fell, there was no unevenness to be found, as if it had been cut out of thin air.
A naked young man, holding a short gun in his right hand, his face was expressionless, as if he didn't care about anything. But the moment he saw the tree fall, the corners of his mouth actually raised an incomprehensible smile.
"Tianao", behind the man, was a soft shout. Hearing this call, the man who raised the corners of his mouth immediately became gentle. No one could have imagined that someone like him would have such an expression.
"Ziyin", Li Tianao turned around and saw Ziyin standing behind him. Suddenly realizing that he was still naked, he smiled a little awkwardly. Then he bent down, picked up the clothes he had thrown on the ground, and put them on.
Ziyin's expression was still gentle, and she looked at the big tree behind Li Tianao that was cut off by him, and then said to him, "Let's go, the meal is ready."
Li Tianao nodded and gently hugged Ziyin. Then he seemed to think of something, glanced at somewhere, then smiled indifferently and followed Ziyin back to the inn.
Today is the tenth day, and these days he will come to this mountain during the day, and then it will be a whole day of martial arts training. Ziyin had been with him, and after eating with him in the morning, they came to the mountain together, and waited behind him, waiting for a day. Then in the evening, I hurried back a little to prepare the meal, and then came back to him to eat.
She is now like a wife who takes care of her husband, and she has already regarded herself as Li Tianao's wife. Li Tianao felt that these ten days were the best ten days of his life, and he enjoyed this life very much. He never thought that such a life that seemed boring to him before would be so warm for him now.
His injuries were almost healed, and he believed that Yan Feng's injuries would also be healed. At this time, he suddenly regretted a little, regretted challenging Yan Feng, and regretted leaving Ziyin. I regret leaving her alone with the consequences of a duel, which, as I said before, is a duel, not a sparring. Each side will do their best, and no one is sure that they will survive.
But he can't regret it now, and once he does, he really can't get rid of it.
"Yan Feng, I hope you can help me get free!"
............
It was another calm hill, which was exactly where Li Tianao had inadvertently looked before. A young man dressed as a scholar and with a very elegant appearance sat in front of the top of the mountain, calmly looking around and feeling the surroundings.
Like Li Tianao, Yan Feng has not been idle in the past ten days, and will come to this mountain every morning. However, unlike Li Tianao, he didn't do anything for a day, and sat quietly on the big rock, quietly observing the surrounding scene. One sits all day, and the inn will not be held until the evening.
A breeze blew, blowing the robe on Yan Feng's body. Trembling slightly, it is the season of late autumn, and the day is no different from usual, but at night it is a little cold!
Slowly stood up and rubbed his legs, which were already a little sore. turned around, but was a little surprised, usually after he left, Xiao Ruoyu would always follow him to this mountain. When he was about to go back to the inn, he could see Xiao Ruoyu's figure as soon as he turned around, and at that time, it was the time when he felt the warmest.
But today, Xiao Ruoyu didn't come, and there was an empty grass behind him except for the leaves blown by the wind. I was a little lost in my heart, and then I smiled indifferently and slowly walked down the mountain.
It's just that the journey without Xiao Ruoyu's company seems so boring. Yan Feng understood that Xiao Ruoyu had become extremely important in his heart.
"Squeak", with a little loss, pushed open the door of the room. But it was a burst of aroma that came to his face, and then Yan Feng's eyes were wide, and he stood at the door in a daze.
He saw something, and saw that the table in his room was covered with food. Various, meat and vegetarian gathering. The next moment, his eyes were moist. He understands who made these, who else can there be besides Xiao Ruoyu?
The previous feeling of loss was swept away, and the full feeling of relief filled the chest. Now Yan Feng doesn't know what kind of mood he is in, he just feels very happy!
"You're back", a familiar voice sounded behind Yan Feng, but no matter how familiar he was with this voice, he felt that he would never hear enough. Immediately afterwards, Yan Feng seemed to be pushed, and walked into the room with some stumbling.
"What are you doing standing at the door, get in!"
As soon as he turned around, he saw Xiao Ruoyu. There are some tired faces, but there is a smile in his eyes that can't be hidden. She was holding a jar in her arms, and she didn't know what it contained!
"Miss Xiao......", Yan Feng looked at Xiao Ruoyu and was about to say something, but was interrupted by Xiao Ruoyu raising her hand.
"If you say thank you, swallow it back", chuckled, looking very relaxed, and put the jar in his hand on the table. Then I heard a "bang" again, and the lid on the jar was opened, revealing an intoxicating aroma from the inside!
Xiao Ruoyu smiled at Yan Feng, although her face was a little tired, she was still so beautiful when she smiled, and Yan Feng's heart rippled with laughter.
Gently pulled Yan Feng to sit on the stool, and said to him: "You're welcome, these are all for you"!
Yan Feng didn't know what to say at the moment, so he could only follow Xiao Ruoyu's meaning step by step. Smelling the contents of the jar slightly, a pungent smell came out, but it was very attractive.
"Wine?"
