Chapter Thirty-Six: Life is like a horse, free from the reins
It will be night, half dusk.
When Leng Xiao embraced Lingxi, he went out of the city and went along the river. There were aspens, weeping willows, and other plants and trees that he couldn't name.
The darker it was, the more awake he became, and when it was bright, he became sleepy. That bright world seems to no longer belong to him, and the loneliness under the night is commensurate with him.
The moon in the sky was like a silver plate, the stars were dotted, and he whispered softly: "Lingxi, the night is very good today, look at the hanging star, as bright as your eyes." ”
A shallow smile appeared at the corner of his lips, and his eyes gradually dimmed, as if he was deeply immersed in an unattainable memory. As far as I could see, the stars in the sky had a colorful color in an instant, like the splendid mountain flowers in the spring field.
A shadow approached from a distance, and the sound of footsteps pulled Leng Xiao's thoughts back. His eyes were a little dazed, as if he was willing to be deeply immersed in this daze, unwilling to return to his senses.
But the black shadow said: "A certain family came tonight, not for the treasure map, but for a bad breath in the heart." Last night, he was teased by Your Excellency, which really made Du lose face in front of his brothers. Yes, come tonight to get it back. ”
Leng Xiao turned his back to the man, and the evening breeze blew through the willow tree, and the willow leaves caressed his face. He suddenly felt a little tired, tired like a drowsy cat.
He said softly: "Have you ever thought that you only lost face last night, and if you lose it again tonight, you will only die." ”
Du Biao emerged from the shadows under the tree and sneered: "Don't say too much about Your Excellency's words, whoever dies or lives must be beaten to know." ”
Leng Xiao said: "Turn around and leave, this is my last advice." ”
But his words elicited nothing but a few laughs. Du Biao's expression was grim, he didn't take a step back, and said hatefully: "Du has never been humiliated at all since the day he fell into the grass, only I tease others, and no one dares to tease me! You are the first and will be the last." ”
"You are not wrong in what you said. ”
"Hmph, you weren't so lucky tonight if you were so engrossed in the treasure map last night that you weren't so lucky, because I've started to get serious. Du Biao said, untying a knife from his back.
A jet-black knife.
Leng Xiao finally turned around, and his eyes looked at Du Biao with some pity and indifference. He said, "You shouldn't have come alone. ”
Du Biao said coldly: "A master like you, whether they come or not, the result is the same." ”
Leng Xiao shook his head and said, "It's a little different, they can collect the corpse for you." ”
Du Biao laughed angrily, and his voice was so thick that the leaves were shocked. He shouted: "Extremely arrogant, if you are still unwilling to let go of the woman in your arms, the knife in the hand of a certain family will never show mercy!"
Leng Xiao's expression was flat, and he only lightly spit out one word: "Please." ”
Only the moment his words fell, Du Biao moved, took off with one foot, and smashed a gray stone. The knife in his hand flashed with a pitch-black sheen, which was both fascinating and intimidating.
"Pick up!"
He slashed the black knife three times in a row in the blink of an eye, like a tiger swinging its claws, and three claw marks fell. And Leng Xiao clearly didn't make any movement, but there was a loud sound in front of him, and the three knives fell almost at the same time, and they were combined with the sound of impact.
Du Biao's footsteps sank, half of his foot sank into the dirt, and he took a step back. In front of him, Leng Xiao was still standing there quietly, the clouds were light and the wind was light.
He was shocked, "What a fast sword!" If it weren't for the fact that he saw Leng Xiao with a long sword at his waist, he wouldn't even dare to determine what kind of weapon Leng Xiao was using.
Leng Xiao's posture made him feel even more humiliated, and the knife was a temptation, so far, Du Biao's muscles tightened, and his strength burst out as it was.
His sword was like a storm, and he didn't stop for a moment, vowing to kill the enemy, but until he was exhausted, Leng Xiao still didn't retreat.
Where Du Biao's sword falls, Leng Xiao's sword can block it. Even after a few moves, he couldn't see what the sword looked like.
His face finally changed, and his heart began to feel less confident. He was supposed to be with his brothers, with a bewitching woman in his arms and a mellow wine in his hands.
"Your knife is slow. Leng Xiao said.
"Yes. ”
"You're tired. ”
Du Biao calmed down and smiled faintly: "Yes." ”
"I advise you, it's best to stick to it as much as you can, and not to go any slower. ”
"Why?"
"Because how long you can hold on means how long you can live. Leng Xiao replied.
Du Biao suddenly burst out laughing, laughing loudly, but there was no smile on his face. His light skills are not good, he knows that Leng Xiao's light skills are extremely high, even if he holds a person, he is as light as a swallow. He gradually understood that he was able to catch up with the other party last night because the other party wanted him to catch up. At the same time, he gradually understood that even if the other party couldn't spare his hands, he could still kill him.
He licked his lips: "It seems that I was reckless tonight, since you have such martial arts, why did you pretend to be invincible last night! You don't want to kill, right?"
"Yes. ”
A glimmer of light flashed in Du Biao's eyes, and he nodded: "Some people kill more people and become more and more ferocious and brutal, while some people will become merciful. Kindness is not a good habit, but tonight is my savior. ”
He shouted: "I Du Biao thinks that I am not as good as it, I am offended tonight, if I can live, I Du Biao will never want to die, since I don't want to kill, please show me a clear way!"
"I don't have a clear way for you, and the clear road has never been pointed out by others, but by myself. ”
Leng Xiao said tiredly: "I have a habit of dealing with the same person and only making one move." ”
"Okay! It's only one move, so I'll ask Du to do all my best to pick you up!"
He let out a low shout of "Dead Sea Sinking Bell", and the black knife in his hand slammed into Leng Xiao's face without any fancy eyes.
After all, Leng Xiao's fingers moved like wearing flowers, and he made a move "swimming dragon style". This is not even a complete move, it is just a half style dismantled from "Jiaolong leaves the abyssal sea, and the thunderclouds are three thousand heavy".
In Du Biao's eyes, he vaguely saw Leng Xiao's right hand bring out a series of afterimages, which dispersed in the blink of an eye, and then still held the woman's popliteal fossa and stood up.
He bowed his head suddenly, the black knife was crooked, and it stabbed deep into the dirt, and one of his hands was still tightly gripping the hilt, which had been cut off by his wrist.
He opened his mouth slightly, but there seemed to be a mouthful of thick phlegm stuck in his throat, and his breath was not smooth, like a dilapidated skull.
He raised his left hand and clutched it tightly to his throat, he thought that there must be a cut there, and his blood and life would be like a wild horse that had escaped from the bridle and never returned.
Leng Xiao asked him, "Do you regret it?"
Du Biao smiled miserably, spitting out vague words: "If I can live, I will never want to die...... If you can't live, you can't die. ”
"I, Du Biao, have done a lot of evil, but I ...... No regrets!"
