Chapter Twenty-Nine: The Iceberg Beauty
He Nai didn't dare to go out, he looked through the window, and there were three people standing quietly on a boulder on the edge of the cliff, all of them were dressed in dark clothes, and only faintly visible figures could be seen in the moonlight, as well as the swords in their hands that reflected the cold light.
"Looks like it's a duel! It's strange, why don't you move?" He Nai thought strangely as he watched. The three men were each less than three meters apart, and they were distributed in a triangular shape, and it appeared that two tall men were beating a short one. He Nai observed carefully, and the three people on the boulder were all in a posture, as if they were all waiting for the opportunity. Suddenly, the three of them seemed to move at the same time, and He Nai didn't see clearly in the blink of an eye, nor did he hear the sound of weapons colliding, and when he looked at it again, the three of them were still standing quietly. He Nai was about to wonder what the hell they were doing, when he suddenly noticed two tall people falling backwards and falling off the cliff, they didn't shout, it seemed that they were dead before they fell. And the short man stood for a while and fell backwards, his luck was not to fall off the cliff, and after falling off the boulder, he rolled into a piece of grass, and He Nai found that the man had moved a few times. "He's not dead yet!" He Nai was shocked.
Who are they, do you want to save him, do you want to see death or not? But Jasper is already tired and still sleeping. He Nai thought about it in the house: what if he is a good person, save people's lives, and win the seventh-level floating slaughter; if he takes a step back, if he is not a good person, he is not coming for himself, and he is injured like this, there is no threat. In the end, he decided to go and see what was going on, it was really curiosity that killed the cat.
Just in case, He Nai brought a fruit knife in his pocket and tiptoed over. It was quiet outside, and his gentle footsteps on the grass could still be heard clearly, and he thought to himself that he had no choice but to come out, so he hurried over and took a look, so he quickened his pace and walked over. Finally, He Nai approached the man and stopped three or four meters away, and he found that the man was still lying quietly on the ground motionless. He Nai had the courage to take a closer look, and the man was masked, still panting slightly, as if it was difficult to breathe. "I'm almost out of breath, why are you still masked?" said He Nai, and removed the black cloth towel covering his face.
"Ahh By the light of the moon, he found that it was actually a girl lying on the ground! She looked about the same age as himself, with delicate facial features, skin like clotted fat, short hair and ears, and a figure similar to that of Jasper, but rather petite.
At this time, she opened her eyes, looked at He Nai strangely, coughed softly twice, and then struggled to point her finger at her abdomen. He Nai followed her finger and was immediately dumbfounded: there was still a dagger stuck in her abdomen, and only the handle of the knife was exposed.
"You're not going to ask me to pull it out, are you? You're going to lose a lot of blood, no. He Nai leaned over and whispered.
"Pluck!" she spoke in a small voice, but it was delicate and nice.
"This~" He Nai was entangled, scared, and hesitated.
"Quick!" she said.
"Okay, you bear with it. He Nai gritted his teeth, held the hilt of the knife in his hand, closed his eyes and took a deep breath before pulling out the dagger with a "whoosh", and he clearly heard the sound of blood spraying on the ground. The girl actually just shook her body and didn't make a sound! He Naike admired the five bodies to the ground, not to mention the dagger, a nail was stuck in the foot and pulled out, and it was strange that she didn't hurt so much that she bared her teeth.
The girl should have been seriously injured, she raised her finger slightly and pointed to her waist, signaling for He Nai to go and get something. He Nai followed the direction she pointed, reached out and touched two small gourds, and the girl nodded slightly.
"The small one is opened, and the wound is sprinkled, and the large one is opened, and one is taken and put in my mouth. She didn't even have the strength to open the gourd, so she could only whisper intermittently. He Nai did as she was told, opened a smaller gourd and sprinkled powder on her wound, and something strange happened, and her wound soon stopped bleeding. He took another round ball from the larger gourd and stuffed it into her mouth, and she swallowed it in one gulp and closed her eyes.
"Girl, girl!" He Nai saw that she closed her eyes, and his heart was a little panicked: she wouldn't just die like this, would he? He Nai looked at her so nervously, and after a while, she suddenly sat up, and a sword and silver dagger were already against He Nai's neck.
"Girl, you~ What do you mean? I don't have any malicious intent, I just want to save you, and we don't know each other, no grievances, what-" He Nai never expected this girl to do this, he was shocked and frightened, and began to speak incoherently.
"Shhhh ”
"Ah, people have long faces, isn't it for others to see?, is it, whoever sees your face, you are going to kill him?" When He Nai heard her say this, he was really dizzy, and he thought it was a lot of hatred, just because he looked at her face?
"That's right, according to the canon of this canon, the hermit must not show his face to outsiders, and whoever sees it will be killed. The girl's soft voice, but she said such eerie words, He Nai was horrified to hear.
"Hermit? But girl, I saved you, you can't take revenge, it's against heaven. The rules are set by people, isn't there a little room for accommodation?" He Nai said faintly.
"Unless~" The girl put down her dagger and lowered her head.
"Unless it's something, there must be a way, otherwise this canon is too inhumane. He Nai said in surprise.
"Unless, I fall in love with him. The girl said softly, the last sentence was very soft, very soft, but in this silent night, He Nai heard it clearly, and he was shocked when he heard it, and this surprise was no less than being held by the neck with a dagger just now.
"Ah, this~, but~" He Nai was confused again, thinking to himself what was going on.
"My name is Fei Xue, the rainy Feifei, the snowy snow. The girl raised her head and glanced at He Nai, and said calmly. Her expression was calm and cold from beginning to end, except for the sentence "I fell in love with him", she basically couldn't see or hear her emotions, under this silver moonlight, this girl looked even colder, and she was an iceberg beauty, it seems that the name Fei Xue was not wrong.
"Hello, my name is He Nai, but I read it backwards, people are like their namesa, and they have been in helplessness. He Nai listened to Fei Xue start to introduce herself, and her heart suddenly relaxed, thinking that it should be safe now, and deliberately spoke humorously. However, the iceberg beauty was unmoved, and just responded with an "um".
"Hey, by the way, this is a katana? Are you Japanese?" said He Na, seeing the knife lying beside her. The handle of the knife is long and black, the blade is slender and slightly streamlined, and it only opens on one side, and it looks like a Japanese katana. And the way they fought just now, it was not at all like the imaginary fighting, the movements were extremely fast, without any mud and water, and it was a one-move killing, He Nai even thought she was a Japanese samurai.
"No, that's Tang Dao. Fei Xue said lightly.
"Ah, Tang Dao?" When He Nai heard this, he was stupid again, thinking to himself, does Tang Dao look like this?
That's right, the Tang knife has a slender single blade, a slightly thicker back, and an arc-shaped knife head, which is very suitable for hand-to-hand combat, but in the Song Dynasty, the Han people did not have a strong cavalry, and could only rely on hoplites to fight against the iron cavalry of the northern country, and the Tang knife was gradually replaced by a thicker and wider broadsword. The Tang knife was introduced to Japan in the Tang Dynasty, and the Japanese knife followed the Tang knife in both the knife type and the forging process, but later the Japanese knife was more streamlined and more conducive to chopping.
"You take this. Fei Xue took out a sachet-like thing and stuffed it into He Nai. He Nai took it strangely, and his fingers inadvertently touched each other, and he felt that her fingers were unusually cold, as cold as her person.
"I'll come to you when I'm done. Fei Xue said.
"Ah, what are you looking for me, you don't need to thank you, it's just a gesture. He Nai said strangely. However, something that surprised him even more happened: Fei Xue suddenly leaned over and kissed him on the face! He Nai looked at Fei Xue stupidly like a frightened lamb. Fei Xue had a slightly shy look on her face, but this expression was only fleeting, and she quickly returned to her cold expression, she looked at the mountains in the distance, and said calmly: "When the time comes, either you go with me, or I will kill you." Also, don't tell anyone about today, or I will kill you. ”
"Ah, but, Fei Xue~" He Nai shouted in surprise, he still wanted to speak, but Fei Xue didn't know when she had grabbed a handful of soil in her hand, she sprinkled the soil on herself, and disappeared all at once.
"These days, what's going on, a little girl's family, opening and closing her mouth to kill the baby, scared the baby to death. Well, there are more people going to kill me anyway, and there aren't many more of you. I'm afraid that by the time you complete the task, I won't be able to go to the west long ago. He Nai sighed and said to himself helplessly.
