Chapter 31: The Duel at the Reunion
In an unknown forest, a swift figure suddenly passed by. Wherever the figure passed, the leaves occasionally fell.
And that figure looks like a person, but if you look closely, it's actually two people. For there is only one man running, and the one who is running is still carrying a man on his back.
Yan Feng lay on the back of the man in black, looking at the scene flying backwards around him. I couldn't stop sighing, sighing at the light work of this man in black. I didn't expect him to be able to carry a person behind him so quickly, and the Songyang Iron Sword Family really tried their best to cultivate him.
This man in black is the young man in black at the beginning.
As soon as Yan Feng came out of the inn room, he ran into this young man in black looking for him and wanted to take him away, of course Yan Feng disagreed.
But the words of the young man in black must be executed when he says them, and if he doesn't say a word, he will forcibly take Yan Feng away. Although Yan Feng wanted to resist, he was seriously injured and had not yet recovered, and after a big battle with the three of Batboy, it could be said that he was close to running out of oil, where was the opponent of the young man in black.
The most pitiful thing is the brother with two knives, who immediately stepped forward to stop Yan Feng when he saw that Yan Feng was taken away.
But he didn't want to, and he lost his life with one person and one sword. This made Yan Feng have to re-evaluate the young man in black.
"If you want to take me away, I'll just go with you, why do you want to kill those two brothers?" Yan Feng sighed as he crouched on the back of the young man in black. He felt a little guilty in his heart, although the Twin Knife Brothers had been his enemy before, but after all, it was because of himself that he died.
When the young man in black heard this, his face still had no expression, and he said lightly: "Those who can't measure themselves deserve even if they die."
Although he was answering Yan Feng's words, his running speed did not slow down at all, which made Yan Feng's evaluation of him a little higher.
Yan Feng could only sigh, seeing that the young man in black was just running in one direction, not walking aimlessly, and asked with some curiosity: "Where are you going to take me?"
The young man in black said, "You will know." After speaking, he stopped talking, and he used another force, faster than before.
Yan Feng sighed again, and he stopped talking. He suddenly thought of the duel of the Five Poison Spirit Sons, the duel, is he still capable now? Now that he is being restrained by others, what should Ma Yan do?
Suddenly, I thought of Xiao Ruoyu again, and I was secretly a little sad in my heart. I'm afraid I'll never see her again in the future, she looks so weak and weak, and she is being chased and killed by the Demon Sect, will there be something wrong?
At this moment, although Yan Feng was on the body of the young man in black, his heart had already drifted elsewhere, and his fugue was too empty. The young man in black seemed to feel it, but he only frowned slightly and didn't say anything.
After thinking for a while, Yan Feng's gaze inadvertently swept towards the black-clothed youth. But he was suddenly attracted by his arm, not because there was anything special about his arm, but because he had been wearing a black dress, but there was a white handkerchief on his arm. Could it be that he was injured? But with the martial arts of the young man in black, how many people could make him injured?
And even stranger, this is not an ordinary handkerchief. The color of the white crystal whole body, and in some parts of the white, there are a few small colored flowers. That kind of small flower is obviously a woman's handkerchief, which really makes Yan Feng even more strange.
However, Yan Feng didn't think about it for too long, because the destination that the young man in black was going to take him to had arrived. It is a small grass hut, and from the outside it looks like a very ordinary small grass hut. There are several trees around and there are some open weeds around the thatched hut.
When the young man in black showed him some roads, Yan Feng didn't think it was a simple thatched hut. Every step he takes is not an ordinary road, but a path that contains some Qimen gossip. This is a kind of formation, if you don't understand the method, you will always be trapped here and can't get out, and people from outside will never be able to break in.
This kind of hexagram formation, Yan Feng's master only taught him how to justify it slightly, and did not teach him too much. Unexpectedly, this young man in black is very proficient, and it seems that he will have to be re-evaluated again.
When he walked to the door, the young man in black did not knock or push the door. And all the time standing in the doorway, just standing still.
What is he doing here?
Of course, Yan Feng also waited, and suddenly a sighing voice came from the grass house: "You person, why don't you knock on the door every time you come back?"
The voice sounded like a woman, and this voice, I don't know what's going on, Yan Feng always felt a little familiar in his ears. Could it be Fang Yuling among the Five Poison Spirit Sons?
However, although this voice was a little sighing, the gentle color contained in it could be heard even by Yan Feng.
"Because I have never opened the door myself in my life, it is someone else who opens the door for me", the faint voice of the young man in black came.
After hearing his words, the people in the house didn't get angry, but sighed again, "You guy, I'll see who will open the door for you in the future."
The door of the hut suddenly opened, and a figure stood in front of it. It was a woman, and it was a woman that Yan Feng was very familiar with.
Yan Feng was stunned when she saw the woman who opened the door. This person is Ma Yan, but he is obviously in the hands of the Five Poison Spirit Son, how did he get here?
Thinking of what happened to me along the way, it was all for Ma Yan, and now that she is safe, the big stone hanging in my heart has finally been put down.
Ma Yan was also stunned when she saw Yan Feng, and then a happy smile flashed on her face in a blink of an eye. His eyes were a little moist, and he suddenly took Yan Feng from the back of the young man in black and hugged him. Yan Feng didn't notice that the black-clothed young man on the side frowned when he saw Ma Yan's movements, and his eyes were a little weird.
The two hugged each other and did not speak for a long time, as if they had stopped for this pleasant time.
Suddenly, Yan Feng heard a rush of footsteps coming from the grass hut. Immediately afterwards, I saw a figure rushing here like lightning, and after seeing Yan Feng, he was also stunned for a moment.
That cold look melted in an instant, and he looked at Yan Feng for a long time without making a sound.
"Yun Xiang, you are also here"? Yan Feng looked up at the person who came, and that person was actually Yun Xiang, who had disappeared for a long time.
Yan Feng kept thinking about what it would be like for him to meet Ma Yan and Yunxiang again. But no matter what he thought, he never imagined that he would be reunited with them like this. And looking at this, the Five Poison Spirit Son is not here.
"Why are you here?" Yan Feng suddenly asked after recovering from the joy of the encounter.
Yun Xiang's face was a little pale, but there was no joy in his eyes that could not be concealed, he glanced at the black-clothed young man behind Yan Feng, and said coldly: "Then I want to thank the people behind you." It was the people behind you who saved me and Ma Yan."
Although the young man in black saved Yun Xiang, Yun Xiang has always been like this, no matter who he faces, he is cold.
Yan Feng listened to Yun Xiang's words and glanced at the young man in black with some strange eyes. Although he had just vaguely guessed that it was the young man in black who had done it, he was still a little strange. The young man in black was obviously helping the five poisonous spirit sons before, why would the young man in black save the three of them now?
The eyes of the young man in black were a little strange at the moment, and he glanced at Ma Yan who was hugging Yan Feng with a little meaning. Of course, Ma Yan also felt his gaze, smiled softly, and then let go of Yan Feng.
Yan Feng looked at Ma Yan's expression and movements, and he had even more doubts in his heart. The feeling that Ma Yan gave him at the moment was actually much more mature. There is no innocent look before, and there is no cold look when my brother died. What the hell is going on these days, looking at the eyes of Ma Yan and the young man in black, Yan Feng actually felt a little familiar.
Ma Yan smiled and explained to Yan Feng what happened, it turned out that the young man in black and Ma Yan actually went to the Tangmen in Shuzhong to ask for medicine in order to save Yunxiang, it was not asking at all, but robbing.
Yan Feng listened to Ma Yan whisper what happened to this matter, and sighed in his heart. The Tang Sect has always disliked contact with the outside world, and it can be said that there are many organs inside. But unexpectedly, the two of them actually snatched the medicine from Tangmen. Looking at the handkerchief in the hand of the young man in black, Yan Feng could also think of it. Although the two didn't elaborate, he should have been injured, and the handkerchief should be Ma Yan's.
Yun Xiang has been listening to the two of them talk about this matter very calmly, and when he heard that the two of them broke into the Tang Gate for themselves, although his expression was still cold, his eyes had softened a lot. Obviously, he had already recognized Ma Yan and the young man in black.
"There is a problem", after listening to Ma Yan's narration, Yan Feng suddenly said to the young man in black.
"What question?" The young man in black still replied lightly.
Yan Feng smiled and said, "Why did you save them, didn't you help the Five Poison Spirit Sons before?"
The black-clothed young man's face was still flat, unmoved by Yun Xiang's gaze. was about to speak, but suddenly heard Ma Yan's gentle voice coming. "Because of the family motto".
Ma Yan's words not only attracted the attention of Yun Xiang and Yan Feng, but even the young man in black was a little surprised.
Ma Yan gently shook her long hair, and then the sunlight suddenly shone in, reflecting on her face, and her pretty face was beautiful under the sun.
Yan Feng was surprised to find that when the young man in black saw her face, his expressionless face was actually a little moved.
"It's because of the family motto", Ma Yan chuckled lightly and continued: "Songyang Iron Sword has always been a righteous family in the rivers and lakes, although it is very concerned about the matter of the master list, but after all, it will not help the abuse. At the beginning, when he saved me, he killed two of the five poisonous spirit sons, which can be regarded as avenging me."
After speaking, his eyes turned like water, turned to the young man in black, and said softly, "Am I right?"
I saw that the lifeless face of the young man in black actually softened a little, although it was only for a moment, it was still captured by Yan Feng. Nodding slightly, "um".
Ma Yan smiled even more when she saw him nodding, and kept her eyes on him without shifting for a long time.
Yan Feng saw the eyes and expressions of the two, and there was a wave in his heart. It's a familiar feeling, but I can't remember what it is.
Suddenly, Yan Feng's mind was touched. A figure flashed suddenly, and the expressions in the eyes of the two of them were somewhat similar to Xiao Ruoyu when he looked at him.
Yan Feng looked at the two of them a little sluggishly, why did the two of them feel very much like Xiao Ruoyu?
"Are you also uncomfortable?" When Yan Feng looked at the two of them sluggishly, Yun Xiang's cold voice suddenly reached his ears.
Yan Feng was slightly stunned when he heard his words. turned his head to look at Yun Xiang, but saw that he was also staring at the two of them.
"I've been annoyed to death by them for the past few days, but I'm glad you came, otherwise I would have wanted to leave."
"What do you mean?" this is what Yan Feng wanted to ask, but before he could say it, he was preempted by Ma Yan.
Yun Xiang looked at Ma Yan, who was slightly angry, and did not shy away from her gaze, and said coldly: "You two are here all day long to make eye contact and convey your thoughts, how can I not be annoyed"?
What Yun Xiang said made Yan Feng's mind a little incomprehensible, but Ma Yan actually blushed when she heard his words. Turning his head, he didn't dare to refute at all.
Yan Feng looked at Ma Yan's appearance, but it was even more strange, what did Yun Xiang mean by this?
And Yun Xiang looked at Yan Feng's increasingly confused eyes, and also understood what he was thinking. lightly explained to Yan Feng: "She likes him, and he likes her."
Saying this, Yan Feng realized that this was the case.
And Ma Yan listened to Yun Xiang's words so clearly, but her face was even redder. And although the face of the young man in black did not change, the trembling under his eyes could not escape Yan Feng's eyes.
Like, like, is that what it looks like?
"Actually, I like Ma Yan too!" Yan Feng smiled slightly.
The other three people changed slightly when they heard his words, Yun Xiang glanced at Yan Feng strangely, Ma Yan's face changed greatly, and he couldn't help but shout: "Yan Feng, don't talk nonsense."
Then he looked at the young man in black with some nervousness. The young man in black raised his eyebrows, but after all, there was not much change. glanced at Ma Yan and walked outside indifferently.
"Wait a minute!" Ma Yan shouted behind the young man in black, but the young man in black did not stop, and disappeared from the field of vision of the three of them after a while.
"It's really not like that!" Ma Yan smiled bitterly and sighed helplessly, while Yun Xiang looked at Yan Feng with an expression that didn't matter to me.
Yan Feng looked at the back of the black-clothed young man leaving, and his heart was touched, he seemed to see Xiao Ruoyu's shadow in him, after hearing his words.
Ma Yan suddenly turned her head, looked at Yan Feng, and gritted her teeth: "Yan Feng, what are you talking nonsense"?
As he spoke, he grabbed the collar on Yan Feng's chest, and seemed to return to the slightly arrogant Ma Yan at the beginning.
Yan Feng still said unconsciously: "I like you, and I like Yunxiang." Ma Yan couldn't help but be stunned when she heard his words, and after Yun Xiang heard it, a smile flashed on his cold face.
Ma Yan looked at Yan Feng as if she was innocent, and she couldn't do anything about him. He snorted angrily and turned his head into the grass hut.
Yun Xiang seemed to have something to say to Yan Feng, but suddenly heard a voice in the grass house: "Yun Xiang, it's time for you to change your medicine." Yun Xiang helplessly shook his shoulders and walked in.
Yan Feng also smiled bitterly, and was about to go in, but suddenly felt that someone was watching behind him. As soon as he turned his head, he saw that the young man in black had come back again, staring at him without turning his eyes. Yan Feng felt a little strange in his heart and walked towards him.
The young man in black didn't move, quietly watching Yan Feng come over.
Yan Feng smiled a little embarrassedly and said, "I like what I said, it seems to be a little different from you, so I ......."
Before he could finish speaking, the young man in black had already interrupted him. "I know. ”
Yan Feng let out an "um" and asked with some curiosity: "Then you are uncomfortable in your heart"?
The face of the young man in black was still very plain, but his eyes stayed in the grass hut. It seems that Ma Yan can be seen inside from the outside, "I just can't accept her for the time being."
Yan Feng let out a "hmm" again, even more incomprehensible.
The young man in black suddenly raised his head and looked at the blue sky. I don't know if I'm talking to myself, or if I'm explaining to Yan Feng, "I have something else in my heart, and I can't let her go for the time being."
Hearing his words, Yan Feng didn't know what to say. Although this young man in black was expressionless, his heart had a lot of things to care about. One of them is the honor of the family.
"Anyway, thank you for saving the lives of all three of me. ”。 Yan Feng also knew that the previous topic was not good, so he skillfully shifted it.
"No thanks", the young man in black said indifferently: "This is just a big gift to the East China Sea Magic Flute."
"Great gift"?" Yan Feng asked.
The young man in black said: "This gift is to have a good duel with you."
"Do you still want to duel with me?" Yan Feng didn't understand, he thought that after the young man in black saved Ma Yan and Yun Xiang, it meant that he didn't want to do anything with him, but things were often beyond his imagination.
"Of course, that's not just what I mean, it's what everyone in my family means," replied the young man in black blandly.
"Can I not agree?" Yan Feng asked.
"No, I can't".
"Why"?
"Defeat all the people in front of me on the master list, this is my wish and my family's wish"?
"That's your wish, why should I do it?"
"You have to help me do it!"
"What if I don't agree?"
"I'll do everything I can to get you to duel with me. ”
"It seems that I can't run away anymore", Yan Feng sighed. He suddenly found that his topic was not cleverly shifted, and even worse than before.
"You have no way to escape," the young man in black said lightly.
"Then what's your name?" Yan Feng suddenly asked.
"Guo Lingyi"!
"Very well, I will fulfill your wish, as well as your family's wish." After Yan Feng finished speaking, he returned to the grass hut.
Guo Lingyi looked at Yan Feng, his cold gaze turned out to be a little confused. As soon as he learned martial arts, he walked the rivers and lakes, in order to defeat everyone on the master list. But after experiencing Ma Yan, he hesitated, is it really meaningful for him to do this? What if he wins? What if he loses?
Ma Yan was still in the thatched hut, but Guo Lingyi didn't know where to go. Yun Xiang, on the other hand, sat at a table with a pale face, not knowing what he was waiting for. His injuries weren't completely healed, and the poison wasn't completely unraveled. The poison of the Tang Sect could not be solved so easily.
Ma Yan was cooking something in a small corner of the grass hut, and Yan Feng guessed that it should be Yunxiang's medicine.
Suddenly I felt that this scene was so warm, everyone was doing what they had to do, and when they were tired, they would rest for a while, and then continue after the break. Such a day is like a home, and Ma Yan, Guo Lingyi, Yunxiang and themselves. Isn't it a home as it is now?
It's a pity that this family is about to break up.
The duel between Yan Feng and Guo Lingyi may be the reason for the dissolution of this family.
But Yan Feng didn't have a choice, if there was any other choice, he would definitely choose that one without hesitation.
Unfortunately, no!
"Ma Yan ......", Yan Feng lowered his head, as if he was a little tentative, standing in front of Ma Yan and calling her.
I saw Ma Yan raise her head slightly and glance at her, but she suddenly snorted, and continued to lower her head to cook the herbs in the pot, she was still angry about what Yan Feng said before.
Yan Feng raised his head, smiled at Ma Yan a little embarrassedly, and said, "Miss Ma, that ...... I also know what I said before is not right, please ...... Please don't be angry."
Yan Feng's attitude could not be described as insincere, but Ma Yan didn't even look at him this time, and still focused on cooking his own herbs.
Yan Feng smiled bitterly, don't talk nonsense in the future.
Seeing that Ma Yan was still angry, Yan Feng was also helpless, and was just about to turn around and leave, but an idea suddenly flashed in his mind. He immediately turned his head again, his eyes were slightly hesitant, and he said with some caution: "I know that the likes I said before are different from the likes of you and Guo Lingyi, I want to ask you to tell me, how can I feel the kind of liking between you and Guo Lingyi"?
Ma Yan saw that he was already leaving, so she thought that it would be over. But he didn't expect him to suddenly ask himself such a question, or such a sensitive question. For a while, I didn't know how to answer. With his head down, he still didn't look at Yan Feng, but his attention was no longer in the pot in front of him.
