Yin Huan seemed to understand what she was talking about. She was at a loss and wanted to defend herself. Her mouth opened again and again, but as always she couldn't spit out a single word. The snake noticed this vision and said happily:
"Oh my god, you can't be... mute, right?"
Chenxing didn't have the patience to listen to this complete taunt. The ring-shou knife was unsheathed, and she was faster than the wind and immediately appeared beside the snake. She was already prepared and dodged the blow.
The tip of the knife touched the surface of the barrier, almost scratching Miyin's face.
The battle is about to break out. The speeds of Chenxing and Demon Snake were frightening, and their eyes could not catch up with them. Even if Xue Miyin wanted to do something, she couldn't interfere at all, not to mention her friends told her not to act rashly. She just stood behind the barrier, neither daring to move forward nor retreating. For a few moments, her eyes crossed with Chenxing's, which made her suspect that her existence had actually been exposed. But so far, she has not taken action against herself.
Miyin turned his gaze to the only person who remained motionless. Ye Yinquan just staggered back two steps at first, then stood there helplessly. She had seen similar scenes like this many times with Chenxing, and never once was she able to intervene. What Xue Miyin cared about was what her friend said just now.
Dumb?
No wonder...from the first time she saw this girl who looked like a phoenix, not a single sound came out of her mouth. But in her memory, Ling Huan never mentioned whether her cousin was deaf or mute. Is she hiding something? Or is her sister limiting her ability to speak? Ling Hu seemed to have said that her voice would hurt people.
Then isn't she dangerous?
She couldn't be made to speak. This is Xue Miyin's idea. Although it is unclear whether her silence is voluntary or involuntary, once she makes a sound, it may be detrimental to her friends. Looking at the two fighting men, they had already distanced themselves. The snake pulled out the red silk, and the snake-like silk was wrapped with powerful demonic power, and it struck Chen Star as she waved it. Chenxing held the Huanshou sword in front of him and blocked the attacks head on. Miyin couldn't help but feel strange - almost no one could stop the snake's spell. Her spells are winding, soft, and pervasive. No matter how blocked they are, they can be dexterously bypassed and hit the vital point. But that woman, the woman with the copper-ringed sword, could always resolve it easily. Did she cut off the demonic power of the snake? Or is it true that she was just trying to deal with her best friend and didn't use her full strength? Miyin doesn't know.
Miyin stepped back step by step, distanced herself from the barrier, and walked in a circle. She wanted to get close to the bewildered girl so that she could stop talking. Want to kill someone? She wasn't sure yet. She held the shamisen tightly with her hands, staring at the other person's lips all the time. Those thin lips were bloodless, like dried flower petals. Miyin had already made up her mind. Once the woman spoke, she would pluck the strings in her hand so that the two sounds would be offset.
However, just when she was about to approach Ye Yinyu, Chenxing suddenly flashed in front of her like a ghost. Miyin didn't even know which direction she came from. Chenxing swung his blade, and a powerful tearing pain hit his chest, and Miyin was forcefully thrown away. The snake flicked the red silk, lifted her up from the sky, wrapped her tightly, and rolled her to the ground. If it falls hard to the ground, you don't know where it will land, and several bones will be broken. Even so, Miyin still felt unbearable pain in her body. She felt something strange. The clothes were not torn, and there were no obvious skin injuries. However, there was indeed a deep bruise on both arms connected to the body. The power revealed from Chenxing's sword may be a kind of magic.
"I've been paying attention to you for a long time. Don't even think about making any small moves."
Miyin was in so much pain that he couldn't speak, and even found it difficult to stand up again. But even so, she could clearly feel that her body was recovering rapidly. The pain was gradually suppressed, and the color of the bruises receded like a tide. Although the discomfort was still there, she knew it was fading. Is this the body of a monster? No matter what kind of damage is suffered, it can be healed through the operation of demon power. It is indeed a convenient body, much easier to use than when I was a human.
She never regretted this transformation.
The snake stands in front of Chenxing, but the distance is far away, at least farther than the distance between Chenxing and Yinxing. Her eyes fell on the ring-shou knife, and then she nodded slightly.
"Oh...so that's how you use it. It hasn't had a trace of rust for hundreds of years, and you took good care of it."
"It sounds like you know me very well."
"I don't know you. I'm sorry. My knowledge of you is really limited. All I know is that you possess a certain magic weapon and that your body has not decayed for nearly five hundred years."
corpse. This is really not a nice word, but Chenxing didn't even frown - but that indifferent face was hidden under the veil, unable to be seen or guessed. Ye Yinquan felt uncomfortable with this description, but she hoped that it was just a description and not a statement of some fact.
But... maybe it is. Her heart was missing, replaced by an inorganic gem. In this case, can she really be defined as a human being? It's hard to say. But Yin Huan believes that she does not belong to the category of monsters.
"Let's go." Sprite Snake suddenly turned around and stretched out his hand to Miyin, "Actually, I just want to test the rumored walking dead's strength. It's very strong! I might not be able to defeat him, so I admit defeat. Let's go."
There is really no need to stay here. It is definitely not a wise choice to attack Yin Hu now. Miyin stretched out her hand and asked her friend to pull her up. The muscles on her body could still feel pain the moment she was pulled up, and it might take a while longer. Can the snake really not be able to defeat her? Miyin didn't know. After all, she felt from watching the battle that the two people should be about the same strength, unless one of them still had reservations. Anyway, they didn't use all their strength. This was not a serious battle in itself, but an unprovoked surprise attack.
"Thank you to the girl over there! Without her, we might not have left so easily."
She was startled when the snake suddenly pointed at Yin Quan, and then the snake bowed to her, but Miyin did not move. What she said was correct, but Miyin also knew that without her, they would not have launched an attack on Chenxing. Although she heard from the snake that Chenxing was carrying some kind of magical weapon, her friend was not interested whether it was out of a balance of strength or an evaluation of the function of the magical weapon.
"You...can't speak, can you?"
Mi Yin suddenly spoke to Yin Quan over there, and both Chen Xing and Xi She looked at her. But she was not afraid, just waiting for Yin Huan's answer. Yin Huan was surprised to be mentioned suddenly, but he didn't feel scared, just a little hesitant. After a while, she nodded and responded to the question.
"You've lost your voice forever."
When these words came out, Miyin himself was a little surprised.
Why do you want to say this? Why do you say this? Why do you say this? She didn't know, but she had this instinct in her heart. Like a prophecy or a curse, it has an inexplicable power. This force filled her throat, making her unable to vomit. Although it was a bit vicious, Miyin actually felt a lot more relaxed after saying it. It felt like the demonic power around me was accumulating uncontrollably, like an arrow on a string.
Of course, these words made Yin Huan feel uncomfortable. She frowned, feeling a little resentful and helpless. What could she do? Naturally, he couldn't do anything, not even able to curse twice. Chenxing beside her clenched the handle of the knife tightly, as if it was some kind of threat. Only the snake was a little happy, and Miyin felt strange about that happy look. But the snake immediately pushed her back and made a gesture to leave the place, and kept muttering:
"Oh, oh, don't take it to heart, my friend just said that casually... Goodbye!"
While this could indeed be seen as a vicious provocation, the situation was not intensified. Even though what Chenxing was left with were two retreating figures, she did not rush to kill them all. I don't know if she is really not a warlike person, or she didn't act because she didn't want to get too far away from Yin Quan. It wasn't until they completely left the sight of Chen Xing and Yin Hu that the latter relaxed and took a long breath.
It was getting late, and the two of them walked along the river for a while. Chenxing returned to his previous silence, not saying a word along the way, and Yin Huan was already used to it. Of course she didn't know that it was not the Demon Snake that wanted to attack Chenxing at the beginning, but Miyin who was hostile to her. After it was completely dark, they found a tall tree and lit a fire underneath, preparing to cope with another night. Yinlan simply washed his face by the river and dried it by the campfire when Chenxing suddenly spoke.
"The two people who appeared during the day are both evil angels."
Yin Quan, who was feeling sleepy, suddenly became more awake.
"One is an evil messenger with two tongues. Even if she doesn't intentionally sow discord, she will unintentionally say words that make people suspicious and distance each other. It doesn't matter whether you believe it or not, this is determined by the power of her spell. I will not lose to her."
Yin Huan nodded blankly. She didn't quite understand, but she knew that Chenxing must have a way. By her side, I can feel at ease no matter what. It doesn't take a few words of instigation to arouse doubts.
"The other one is the evil messenger of Qiyu. She is...new. The last sentence is also a spell. Those words will make you believe her almost unconditionally. Maybe you don't feel anything yet, but In the future, it may cause you pain in key places. I can't help you - that's your own struggle."
Yin Hu couldn't help but swallowed. Xue Miyin's words indeed made her feel uncomfortable, but she only regarded them as a provocation. Will the consequences be serious? She could have ignored it, but Chenxing wanted to mention it... It wasn't that she was blaming her, otherwise wouldn't it be just what the two tongues wanted? However, worry is inevitable.
She lowered her eyes, feeling sad for her silence. She turned her face sideways and saw that Chenxing had taken off his hat. In front of herself, she seemed to no longer need that kind of cover-up. Then, her eyes moved down and landed on Chen Xing's ring-headed sword. This time, she was a little curious.
It's rare for Chen Xing to talk a lot.
"They are my burial objects."
"..."
These words were really strange, and Yin Huan felt extremely awkward.
"My biological father, before he found a suitable heart, tried every means to keep my body young and prevent my soul from being separated. This ring-headed sword made of copper was a common weapon in that era. The purification process was complicated and expensive. It was made of The magic weapon that fixes the soul - of course it cannot compare with the seven magic weapons. After I woke up, I kept it until now. You have seen my fighting method: it absorbs spells, dissolves power, stores and transforms them, and passes them through My heart cleanses the filthy parts and releases them. An eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth."
It is indeed an amazing spell. In addition to sighing, Yin Huan's sadness was also diluted.
Chenxing wiped the knife patiently with a piece of cloth, carefully and with just the right amount of force. Four to five hundred years of time have never eroded the blade, and the appearance of Chenxing has never decayed in the slightest. But how old her soul is, only she knows.
