twin moon

Chapter 45, Scene [-] Unexpected Part [-]

Luo Jianli finally realized that the young man in front of him was no longer the little handyman on the boat back then, so he didn't dare to give him a chance to breathe, so he took half a step back to gather himself, and immediately drew his knife and swept across the opponent's lower body .

This time, Jiang Yan didn't try to block again. Instead, he slammed Xiao Tianmo's pestle towards the ground, and then flicked his feet. He actually used the knife as a long pole, lifted his body in the air, and lifted his body from the top of the opponent's head. Leaped over lightly.

Luo Jianli rushed to nothing, but the saber didn't use up his momentum, and immediately changed his move and slashed behind him.Unexpectedly, the black-eyed boy's movements were faster than him, drawing the knife, sending the knife, and stabbing in one go!While the man was still in the air, the black-gold blade had already stabbed fiercely towards the man's brow with the force of falling!

The bearded man finally became a little scared, he didn't dare to take this move face to face, and turned sideways to avoid the sharp edge.But it was intended to stick close to the boy before he landed on the ground and attack his vitals.

However, the Mo Dao in the young man's hand was not as heavy and clumsy as it seemed.Hearing a clang, Jiang Yanfu let go of the right hand holding the saber as soon as he landed, but switched the weapon into the air with his left hand, and then held the end of the hilt of the saber, using the strength of his waist to drive the long blade, turning it into a It swung horizontally like a jet-black steel whip.

"how can that be?!"

The speed of the Mo Dao in the boy's hand was so fast that Luo Jianli had to back off again with a cry of alarm, so that he could get out of the fight.However, Jiang Yan was like a furious black dragon, he only breathed out for a while, and then spurred his strength to stab the opponent's heart again, as if he was not tired at all, and the speed was faster than before!

The two weapons collided again unavoidably, causing sparks to fly.The two people who were originally disparate in strength actually fought evenly this time, and Luo Jianli could no longer take advantage of it.

But Jiang Yan didn't intend to win by brute force.Before the saber was worn out, he used the weapon in his hand to wrap around the man's arm.Luo Jianli had no choice but to take advantage of the situation and dance the long iron sword, constantly removing the opponent's unpredictable offensive.The young man's knife turned faster and faster. Seeing that the man in front of him was a little tired, he suddenly shouted "Broken!", and the black-golden blade sharply lifted upwards, trying to take advantage of the situation to force him to let go of the weapon in his hand. !
But this time he miscalculated.A smile suddenly flashed across Luo Jianli's eyes, and he deliberately sold a loophole to lure him into the bait!I saw a silver light flashing across the darkness, and the iron long knife seemed to fly out of his hand, but the captain still held a gleaming white weapon in his hand, and turned to attack the child's opened door!
Jiang Yan's heart skipped a beat, and he hesitated for a while, but the momentum of his forward move could no longer be held back.With a "chi" sound, the iron long knife slashed across his right rib obliquely, tearing the flesh and blood gushing out.

It wasn't until this time that Jiang Yan could see clearly that there was a mystery hidden in the opponent's weapon—there was actually a hidden blade of the same shape, but slightly thinner, hidden in the blade!And what he knocked into the air just now was just a layer of outer sheath used as bait.

The sharp pain in his ribs made the boy feel dizzy and the Mo Dao in his hand suddenly became heavy.Luo Jianli's offensive took the opportunity to become fierce again, forcing the child back again and again, and he fell into a disadvantage in a blink of an eye.

"Little ghost, so what if you are born with supernatural power? What if you are holding Xiaotianmo? In this world, some people are destined to be wolves, while others are sheep. Wolves must eat sheep. If you don't want to be eaten, you can only turn yourself into a wolf that drinks blood and eats flesh, chews bones and sucks marrow!"

While speaking, Jiang Yan was stabbed again in the arm.Although the two stab wounds missed his vitals, the blood soon soaked his clothes.The warm liquid flowed down the fingertips and legs, sticky and slippery.

The young man who was already shaking a little did not just fall down, but jumped up from the ground suddenly, his eyes brightened.This time, his speed of drawing the saber was almost twice as fast as before, and the heavy Mo Dao held tightly in his hand was as light as a feather.The slightly curved slender blade transformed into a black-gold lightning in the darkness of the underground palace.And there is only one target for that lightning strike!
Luo Jianli originally thought that he had the chance to win, but he never expected that the young man would launch a storm-like attack, so he was afraid and angry:
"Damn! You damn kid, where do you have so much strength?!"

"Even if they are going to be eaten, the sheep will try their best to resist! Let alone people?!"

Jiang Yan yelled back subconsciously, but felt that the voice between his lips and teeth became a little hazy, as if it had an echo, it sounded very close, but it seemed to be far away in the sky.His consciousness gradually became blurred, but there was always a blazing flame burning in his heart, still supporting himself to attack and attack again.

Luo Jianli knew clearly that this was the young man's last effort, but he didn't dare to be careless.I saw that he shook the long knife in his hand, and poured all his strength into his arms, but he was not on the defensive, but attacked head-on while shouting!

The black-eyed boy suddenly felt that Xiao Tianmo seemed to be integrated with his body.For a moment, he still felt that it was his own illusion, until the black-golden blade visibly trembled in his hand, as if it was resonating with the blood surging all over his body.

The blood that flowed down the arm to the blade couldn't stay on the smooth metal surface at all under the high-speed rush, and gathered towards the back of the blade against the spine of the blade.The blood beads collided with the knife and shattered in an instant, and a red blood mist rose in front of Jiangyan!
At the same time, there was a soul-stirring scream from the black-golden blade tip.That sound didn't sound like the piercing cry of ordinary weapons, but rather the roar of the ancient dragon soul lurking in Xiaotianmo, stimulated by blood, and a wild and powerful man!

In the blink of an eye, the silhouettes of the man and the black-eyed boy crossed each other, and then they stopped suddenly three feet away from each other, but neither of them turned their heads.

"Little ghost, what kind of saber technique are you using?" Luo Jianli asked in a low voice, but there was no longer the arrogance in his tone.

"Destroy the mountain!"

The young man struck the ground with a long knife, and said every word, but his whole body suddenly rushed forward without any warning, and fell straight on the ground.

"Destroy--Shan...the student taught by the number one fierce general on land really lives up to his reputation." The man murmured, and finally put his knife back into its sheath.

"Small stutter!"

Ning Yue, who had been sweating for the boy with black pupils, could clearly see the red dripping from the iron long knife in Luo Jianli's hand. Pounced on his companion.

"This kid just exerted too much force and couldn't catch his breath. He couldn't die."

Luo Jianli's figure swayed for a while, and he wanted to move forward, but he couldn't move half a step.Immediately, he bent his knees and fell to his knees suddenly. His whole body seemed to lose all strength, and he lost support and fell limp on the ground.Jiang Yan, who fell down in one step, slowly woke up, stood up again with Ning Yue's support, pressed a new bleeding wound in his ribs with his hands, and said in disbelief:
"Did I really stab him just now?!"

It turned out that at the last moment of the fight, the consciousness of the black-eyed boy had long been in a trance, and the Mo Dao in his hand was completely out of focus, and just hit Luo Jianli's right chest with the broad spine of the blade.But his saber speed was so fast that he smashed a large piece of heart-protecting iron armor on the opponent's chest!
Now, the sharp broken armor pierced deeply into the man's body, piercing the internal organs.Blood seeped out along the gap between the Xuanjia, and flowed all over the ground.

"The key to winning or losing is the person who refuses to admit defeat after all. My ancestors didn't deceive me! In fact, I was doomed to lose this battle from the very beginning. But I--I didn't regret it--"

A large spurt of blood spewed out of Luo Jianli's mouth, and the killing intent in his eyes also dissipated.Now, his pupils are like a person who has been dead for a long time, turning gray.However, the corners of his mouth were raised, "I never thought that I could hear Xiao Tianmo's dragon roar again in this life. It seems that the heroic soul of the ancestors has not dissipated for thousands of years, but is attached to this knife. Trying to protect its new owner..."

"Jiang Yan staggered to the other party's side, looked at the bearded Captain Xiaoqi and said coldly, "Don't you think it's too late to say such things now? "

"It's not too late, it's not too late at all. You will never understand that death is a kind of relief for many people in this world!"

"There is always a chance to put down the butcher's knife, it's just that you don't want to—"

"No, I never had a chance. Ever since I started on this path, I knew I could never turn back." Luo Jianli said, and vomited a mouthful of blood again, "Brat... I said it before In this world, some people are wolves and some people are sheep. But the sheep know in their hearts that they will never be able to become wolves. And those sheep who want to become wolves will eventually be like me. If you fail, you will become a wild dog abandoned by your master!"

"What wolf, sheep, dog? Little stammer, stop wasting time with him here. Let's take Ziyin and get out of here quickly!" Ning Yue dared not look at the man who was almost drenched in blood, and pulled hard He pulled Jiang Yan's sleeve.

"No, I have to ask him who the mysterious man in the cloak is!" Jiang Yan shook his head, squatting down beside Luo Jianli with his sword, "If you are willing to confess, we can take you Let’s go back to the city together and surrender, maybe we can save a life.”

"At this point, even if I want to live, that person will never allow it. I just ask you to promise me one thing—" At this point, Luo Jianli's gloomy eyes suddenly flashed a softness, It was like seeing light in darkness.

But before he could finish his words, he heard the sound of iron bars being opened suddenly in the dark underground palace, as if someone had activated a mechanism somewhere!
Luo Jianli subconsciously pushed the child away from her body.The black-eyed boy also immediately noticed that the situation had changed:

"What do you want us to do? As long as you tell me who the mysterious man is, I will promise you!"

But the man in front of him didn't answer any more, he ignored the bleeding wound on his right chest, fumbled to hold the iron long knife next to him again, leaned against the rock wall full of human bones, and struggled to sit upright. , shouted sharply:

"If the other party knows that his identity has been exposed, it will only implicate more innocent people! Right now, I just ask you to go to Shigufang in Jieshen Lane in the north of the city immediately to save a girl named Xiao Zhi! Guarded by warriors with swords, be sure to lead the forbidden army to go!"

What the man said without cause and effect made the young man feel a little baffled.He immediately wanted to ask again, but suddenly saw a few black figures jumping out of the human bone palace behind him, so he quickly dismissed the idea.

Right now, those shadows deliberately hid their figures in the shadows beyond the range of the firelight, but they moved extremely quickly.With the help of the beating flames, the black-eyed boy gradually saw one pair, two pairs... four pairs of shining animal eyes, and immediately pulled up his companion who was stunned, and shouted:
"It's Chi wolves! It turns out that the mysterious person who quietly raised Chi wolves in Wanzhou! The two wolves we met on Leiyin Mountain before should have been released from this underground palace too! Yue'er, hurry up and help me!" Zhu Ziyin, we have to rush out!"

Ning Yue was also terribly scared at this moment, she didn't dare to slack off, and immediately helped the other party set up the white-clothed boy who was still standing unsteadily.Standing Yan Hengdao in front of him on his right, he tried his best to lift Qi Ziyin's arm, while Ning Yue supported the waist of the boy in white from the left.The eyes of the two of them stared unblinkingly at the few wolf eyes shining coldly in front of them.

The beast hiding in the darkness finally walked into the range of the fire.These galloping wolves are twice as big as what Jiang Yan and Ning Yue saw in Leiyin Mountain before, and the shoulders of the wolves are almost as high as the three children.Luo Jianli, who was leaning against the wall, turned his head, gave them a meaningful look, and then threw the long knife in his hand at the leading galloping wolf with all his strength:

"Right now, let's go!"

This move successfully attracted the attention of the wolf leader, and the pack of wolves roared and rushed towards the man together with him.Although Captain Xiaoqi was seriously injured, he still managed to hold back the two galloping wolves with the help of Xuanjia's protection.This also gave the three of Jiang Yan a short gap to escape towards the uncollapsed exit on the other side of the underground palace.

Accompanied by the howling of human-wolves fighting, the three children ran wildly in the uneven underground palace.Jiang Yan found an opportunity to look back, and saw two galloping wolves biting Luo Jianli's right arm and left leg one after the other, shaking their huge heads violently, smashing the man who could no longer resist Torn in half alive.

Luo Jianli's black armor was also torn off from the broken body by the giant wolf, and it was torn apart and never formed again.Jiang Yan suddenly felt that his scalp was numb, and he didn't dare to look at him any more. He just kept urging his companions to move forward faster.

During the confusion, the fire pocket in Ning Yue's hand was also lost.Fortunately, the sky was about to dawn, and a light gray light gradually appeared in front of the eyes of the three children—it was the exit at the other end of the underground palace hidden in a cave.There is no obstacle before the exit, and it can directly lead to the rugged and dense forest outside the cave!

The towering towering trees covered the rising sun at dawn, and the forest was still dark.The stomachs of the four galloping wolves were obviously not full, and they rushed out from the tunnel after the three of them.

After all, it is difficult for two legs to compete with four legs. Moreover, two people were injured, which greatly slowed down the progress of the children.Soon the galloping wolf had chased after the prey, and the mouth of the wolf, which was emitting stench and heat, was less than a foot away from the back of their necks, biting constantly from near to far.The sharp wolf teeth collided together, making a rattling sound, making one's hairs stand on end.

Jiang Yan knew that no one would be able to run away if this continued, so he secretly let go of Qi Ziyin, and instead held the knife in both hands, he turned around suddenly when he saw the opportunity, and slashed at the galloping wolf closest to him.The giant wolf charged too fast and couldn't dodge in time, so half of its head was cut off on the spot.

The leader of the team, the wolf, was not frightened away. Instead, he jumped into the air stepping on the fallen corpse of the same kind, and bit the spine of Mo Dao with one bite.This sudden bite caused Yan to lose his balance, and he fell straight back to the ground.

However, he still refused to let go of the only weapon in his hand. Under the pull and pull of the giant beast, the wound on his ribs that had stopped bleeding was torn open again.

The severe pain caused the boy with black pupils to feel dizzy, unable to raise his knife to defend himself for a while, so he had to use his last bit of strength to roar loudly at the sky above his head where the golden morning glow had already appeared:

"Leave me alone!"

But how could Ning Yue and Qi Ziyin escape in such a situation?Under the command of the head wolf, the other two wolves continued to outflank, one left and one right, completely blocking the escape route of the remaining two!
He fell to the ground and panted heavily, the wound on his side gradually became numb due to the pain.He struggled to touch the knife again, but the wolf stepped forward and stepped on his chest with his claws.The tawny wolf teeth bared outside his lips, dripping saliva unceasingly.The black-eyed boy was desperate, so he had no choice but to try to turn his head away, wanting to see how his two companions were doing a few meters away.

However, in the blurred vision, the red-haired girl and Qi Ziyin did not appear, only a round of extremely bright fireball, as if the rising sun fell into the forest, emitting dazzling light.Around the fireball, the grass and trees were all burned, and the other two galloping wolves were also frightened on the spot, with their tails between their legs, and they backed away with a low growl.

Seeing this, the wolf had no choice but to temporarily let go of Jiang Yan, who had no power to fight back. He jumped over the young man, rushed towards the fireball, and let out a threatening growl.In a trance, the black-eyed boy felt as if a female voice was singing in the forest beside his ears, and the flame ball instantly increased several times along with the singing.The gushing flames seemed to have life, and burned directly towards the bullying beast!

The temperature of the flame tip was unbelievably high, and the three galloping wolves without any defenses instantly turned into three scorched black mummies.The crimson flames permeated Jiang Yan's face, but it made him suddenly recall the warmth of home.

Just when the young man thought that the raging fire would burn himself, the flame tip that was close at hand quickly receded, and then completely extinguished.The fire left only a charred trail on the ground.Only the billowing smoke in the forest clearly proves the fiery baptism that this place has just experienced.

In the smoke, Jiang Yan once again saw the slender figure of the red-haired girl.Ning Yue and Qi Ziyin miraculously survived the fire without even hurting a single hair.At this time, she raised her arms high to the sky, as if she was embracing the first ray of sunrise in the forest.

Just before the consciousness completely dissipated, the black-eyed boy suddenly saw the girl's body tilted and fell limply.Her red hair flew away in the wind, as if the deadly flame from before was still burning...
