Chapter 435: Sorrow for whom
"You...... ...... the hell Are you a human or a ghost?" He Tong asked tremblingly in a panic.
Hongyun maintained a look that was even more terrifying than that of the killer, and responded in a cold tone: "I said that I am a person who has died once, so you say that I am a human or a ghost......"
After He Tong heard this last sentence, his eyes looked at Hongyun's face in amazement, and he whimpered for the last time......
The kitchen knife pierced He Tong's heart, and the blood soaked all over the ground, which made Zhou Xingtong, Qiu Ruxin and others who were gasping next to them feel extremely suffocated - they never thought that He Tong would die at the hands of Hongyun, a mysterious woman, tonight.
"Senior Brother He Tong—" Qiu Ruxin even exclaimed.
"Senior sister, be careful!" Before Qiu Ruxin could react from her sadness and fear, Zhou Xingtong shouted at Qiu Ruxin again.
Qiu Ruxin raised his head, and a ghostly shadow sword that seemed to cut off a qiē suddenly attacked him. Qiu Ruxin didn't have time to react, so he had to bow his head and skim over. As a result, he almost died under Hongyun's knife, the hairpin on his head was directly cut off, and his long hair shawl swayed in the wind.
It's over, and the red cloud instantly appears in front of Qiu Ruxin like a devil, a cold-blooded killer. Qiu Ru's heart was shocked, she had never felt such a suffocating sense of oppression, in this dilapidated hut, she seemed to be unable to escape the palm of the "devil".
However, at the same moment, a cold palm wind struck, and Hongyun looked sideways - it was Bai Xie, although he was hit hard by Hongyun due to carelessness before, it did not cause any major problems, and he was relieved. Try your best to stop the red cloud.
Hongyun looked fixedly, withdrew the kitchen knife in his hand, and stopped his pace forward, and the whole person tossed in the air for half a circle, dodging Bai Xie's yin palm. Bai Xie's palm wind roared by, and with a loud "boom-" sound, the earthen wall on Hongyun's side was pierced by a palm—it seems that Bai Xie's palm power is not weak, and his martial arts are naturally above Zhou Xingtong, Qiu Ruxin and others.
Seeing that the danger was temporarily freed, Qiu Ruxin immediately came back to his senses and hid to Bai Xie's side.
However, Hongyun didn't want to give them a chance to relax, and turned over and landed. Pick up the knife again. The sharp blade struck again, like a terrifying lightning bolt piercing through the dark clouds.
Seeing this, Zhou Xingtong used ten percent of his palm strength to collide hard, and the two moves collided with each other, and the internal force rushed chaotically. The center of the confrontation was instantly blasted by a strong momentum.
Hongyun knew that Bai Xie, Zhou Xingtong and others had joined forces to deal with it. It's hard to take advantage of yourself. These two are scheming, and their good is suddenly cold, and after killing He Tong, Hongyun himself actually consumed a lot of body. So Hongyun still took three steps back and waited to respond.
"Quick, go and kill her-" Zhou Xingtong saw that Hongyun was unstoppable with his knife and could not slack off in the slightest, so he could order the remaining black-clothed men to besiege Hongyun.
But these minions, in front of Hongyun, who has already "killed the gods" at this moment, have no power to make a move. I saw Hongyun showing murderous eyes, and the kitchen knife in his hand slashed with the pace of his spiritual shadow, and in an instant, it was a human life......
Bai Xie looked at Hongyun's unstoppable killing intent, and then looked at his fellow disciple He Tong, who was already lying dead in a pool of blood, and his heart was stunned, and then he whispered a few words to Qiu Ruxin and Zhou Xingtong beside him......
Hongyun's side has already killed the red eye, and the knife in his hand is getting more and more neat, before he meets a black-clothed assassin, there will be an extra corpse on the ground, but after a while, the corners and corners of the house are already full of blood-soaked "corpses all over the field", bloody and tragic people dare not look at it directly......
Finally, Hongyun's gaze returned to Bai Xie on the opposite side again. Hongyun lifted the kitchen knife in his hand and wanted to catch up again, but Zhou Xingtong on the opposite side suddenly had a few hidden weapons - but the direction of the hidden weapon did not seem to be towards Hongyun, but the roof beam on Hongyun's head.
The hidden weapon of the chess piece hit the uninjured beam, Hongyun looked up, and he didn't know what was going on...... "Boom-" only to hear a sudden explosion, and the eaves on Hongyun's head were directly blown open a gap, and the beams on the roof were also directly blown off, and the broken beams and countless tiles fell, as if they were going to bury this qiē.
Red Cloud swung her knife upwards with a few strokes, avoiding the direct impact of the beam, and the broken beam smashed into the rest of the black-clad assassins beside her. However, the powerful explosion kicked up puffs of dust and blurred the dust ahead.
Hongyun's vision was also slightly affected, and she held her breath and looked forward, only to see the blurred outline of Bai Xie between the cracks in the beams of the collapsed house in front of her.
However, his vision was blurred, but Bai Xie's voice was very clear. I only heard Bai Xie sneering at Hongyun: "Hmph, I admit that you are a strange woman, and you should be underestimated by the defeat today...... We'll see each other again in the future, but I'll be sure to settle with you next time we meet......"
After the words fell, there was no more sound, and even the silhouette of Bai Xie's figure in the smoke could not be seen.
Hongyun kicked the broken beam in the ruins hard, wanting to continue to look for Bai Xie and the others, but when the dust and smoke cleared, Hongyun never saw Bai Xie and the others again, and even the body of He Tong, who had just been killed by himself, was gone, leaving a pool of red blood on the ground......
Hongyun looked around, the dark clouds covered the moon, and around the dirt slope of the jungle outside the house, under the cover of the dark night, it was impossible to see clearly.
Hongyun thought about it, and the person who didn't plan to track down the ghost king master anymore withdrew the murderous aura in his eyes and walked back to the house that had been completely dilapidated......
After a night of fierce fighting, the earthen walls of the house were in tatters, and even the beams of the eaves had completely collapsed. Fang Ying was still lying quietly on the bed - except for the place next to the bed, which was intact, and Fang Ying, who was unconscious, was completely unaware of what happened tonight.
Hongyun slowly walked to Fang Ying's bed, picked up the last bowl of medicine on the bedside table, and sat on the edge of the bed to slowly help Fang Ying feed the medicine. Although the medicine had cooled down a lot, Hongyun still patiently finished feeding the medicine......
After drinking the medicine, Fang Ying's face was much better than before. Hongyun silently looked at Fang Ying sleeping peacefully, and then looked at the ruins of the blood-stained corpses around him, thinking of the scene of falling from the Broken Sky Bridge during the day and fighting the enemies fiercely at night today. I can't help but hesitate in my heart.
"I haven't picked up a knife for a long time, I didn't expect that in order to save Sister Ying, I would let me get ......blood on the blade again" Hongyun's eyes showed complicated sadness, completely without the previous murderous aura, as if recalling the pain and sorrow of the past, and said silently in his heart, "Your life is really bitter, you have lost your family affection for eighteen years, but now you are being hunted down by unknown people...... I have lived a life of death every day, just like you. All I thought about was a lot of sorrow and hatred......"
Red Cloud slowly narrated to herself. From time to time, he looked up at the broken roof on the eaves, and then looked down at the sleeping Fang Ying, and continued to say secretly: "You are better than me, although you don't have eighteen years of family affection like you. But your master, Lan Gu, takes such good care of you. Out of the Tomb Pie. and Brother Canglong and Brother Huang Ji will protect you and take care of you as always. You're still happy every day...... But these things of mine are the opposite of yours, from the time I lived a life of death. I will no longer have joy, only endless hatred and pain every day......"
Hongyun looked down at the second kitchen knife that had almost been cut by himself, looked at the blood stains on it, and continued to say secretly: "That's all there is every day...... That's all...... Only blood and grief...... But not until I met him—"
Hongyun suddenly mentioned a sentence, and his expression softened a little: "After meeting him, my life has changed again, it is he who made me understand trust and fraternity, let me downplay the hatred in the world, and let me understand what love is." Although we have also had conflicts, we have also encountered life and death crises...... With him, I only know that with him, I will have happiness and hope......"
Hongyun, who had calmed down, was sitting on the edge of the bed at this moment, quietly narrating his past to Fang Ying. Hongyun seems to have love-hate memories, after experiencing a qiē tonight, Hongyun actually sighed at Fang Ying about her past, although she understood what she said, Fang Ying in her sleep may not be able to hear it......
"It's really nice to have him by my side...... But...... But......" At this point, Hongyun's expression turned sad again, "but after that conflict, we encountered an unprecedented catastrophe, and I was separated from him...... He thought I was dead, but I was alive...... Still alive...... Still alive......"
Speaking of this place, Hongyun choked up slightly: "I am alive, but I have changed...... I tried to find him again, but I never heard from him...... He must have thought I had left him, he was gone, and I never found him again...... Didn't find him again......"
As he spoke, Hongyun's eyes moistened a little, as if he was talking about a sad place: "Compared to me, Sister Ying, you are much luckier...... Although you have encountered a lot of disasters, Brother Canglong and Brother Huang Ji are always by your side...... I hope you can be there for them all the time, by these best friends of yours, and not repeat my tragedy......"
Hongyun was silent for a long time, gently wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes with his hand, and after a trance, Hongyun showed a rare smile of little hope: "But I have a hunch, I will definitely be able to find him, the one who has always been by my side to make me laugh, the one who always cares about me, takes care of me, and treats me well...... Will definitely ......."
Speaking of which, Hongyun was touched by himself. After sitting on the edge of the bed and narrating for a long time, Hongyun slowly stood up. Suddenly, Hongyun stood in front of the decoction pot, looked at his reflection on the water in the bowl next to the pot, and inadvertently said an inexplicable word: "This face has made me lose my life, but it has also made me lose a lot of happiness, and I have lost him...... Brother Huang Ji once told me that there is no need to hide a qiē in front of my friends, should I also let my true self face the world......"
After muttering to himself for a long time, Hongyun walked back to Fang Ying's bedside again, and said in his heart: "This place should not stay for a long time, maybe the people of the Ghost King Master will secretly monitor here, you have to take Ying Mei out of here quickly...... At the last moment at the broken bridge today, Nini followed Brother Canglong and them, and I don't know if they can find me and Sister Ying...... Anyway, we have to take Ying Mei to a safe place first, wake her up, and then meet with Brother Canglong and escort Ying Mei back to the mountain safely, and ...... There is also the secret of the ghost king master - the ghost king master keeps chasing and killing Ying Mei, there must be an unknown past, I must find a chance to find out and give Ying Mei a fair ......"
After that, Hongyun simply packed his bags, continued to carry Fang Ying, left the dilapidated house, touched the night, and hurried away in the direction of the east......
On Huang Ji and Canglong's side, the two of them also followed Nini and walked around the town where Hongyun Fang Ying fled before......
"Nini, where are you going?" Huang Ji asked as he followed Nini and hurried along.
The reason why she asked this was because Nini smelled the smell of Hongyun and Fang Ying, and looked for clues all the way in the city, but she kept wandering around the remote alleys in the city, and some difficult dirt roads and paths even walked more than a dozen times, which couldn't help but make Huang Ji guess if Nini really knew where the two of them went.
However, there is no way to do this, before Hongyun carried Fang Ying on his back here to avoid the pursuit of the Ghost King's men, but looking at the road, he took several more detours, just to avoid the vision of Bai Xie and others. And Bai Xie also saw the opportunity to act, and used a trick to frantically search for these two people, which can be regarded as checking every alley in this town. Naturally, Hongyun also ran to the corners of every alley in the town with Fang Ying on his back, so now that Nini was looking for traces, she naturally made more than a dozen detours along the original road before Hongyun.
"Hey, blah, blah, blah......" Seeing Nini's footsteps getting faster and faster, and turning towards the remote path, Huang Ji continued to chase and shout.
"Hey, hey, hey, slow down, slow down......" Canglong, who was also helping, shouted.
But after all, Nini couldn't understand human words, she only knew how to smell the breath of Hongyun and Fang Ying to find clues step by step. And this "noisy", Nini took Huang Ji and Canglong to go around the town thoroughly, and did not let go of every alley......
Finally went around to the last alleyway - this was the place where Hongyun and Fang Ying were forced to the last corner, and Nini stopped when she smelled this.
"Nini is not wrong in the way she led......" Canglong saw that Nini had finally stopped here, and he stood on his feet and sighed, "What did Miss Hongyun do with Sister Ying......"
"Let's not talk about this for now...... Huang Ji reminded on the side, "The clue follows here, it seems to be broken......"
Sure enough, this was the last thing Nini smelled, and then after two "boom-" sounds, it seemed to indicate that she had done her best and could not continue to follow the clues.
In fact, that's right, it was in this place that Hongyun took the unconscious Fang Ying to a rich family's donkey cart and followed the donkey cart out of the town, and the taste naturally disappeared here.
"What should I do now, it seems that Nini can't continue to pursue the clues......" Huang Ji said a little anxiously, "Damn, the more you stay here for a while, the more dangerous Ying'er and the Red Cloud Girl will be—"
In his opinion, what happened today was because of the negligence of himself and Huang Ji, and he fell into the trap of Bai Xie and others. Now thinking of Hongyun, an unarmed girl, taking the unconscious Fang Ying around to avoid the pursuit of the ghost king, it makes people anxious to think about it, so at this time, Canglong is also eager to find the whereabouts of the two.
"Do you mean...... Could it be that Ying'er and they have already ...... It has been ...... by the people of the Ghost King Division" Huang Ji has a bad worry in his heart.
Canglong still seemed calm, and in his heart, there had always been an inexplicable belief that Fang Ying and Hongyun would be fine. This feeling is amazing, Canglong himself can't say why, this feeling is the same as the feeling of having a heart and soul with Hongyun and the two.
Canglong looked down, and at the end of Nini's smell, two wheel prints could be faintly seen, one of which was obviously much deeper than the one next to it.
"There have been cars here, and one of them is much deeper than the other......" Canglong looked at the wheel prints on the ground and muttered, "This means that there are heavy objects moving up and down the car, maybe...... Maybe it was here that Miss Hongyun took Ying Mei into a certain car, and then went somewhere else......"
"That's why their taste has disappeared here......" Huang Ji, who had returned to hope, also followed.
Canglong stood up and nodded, "Well, I think as long as we follow the wheel print, we can still find Sister Ying and Miss Hongyun—"
found a new clue, Huang Ji and Canglong did not slack off, and continued to lead Nini and groped in the direction of the wheel print...... (To be continued......)
