Murderous aura circulated in this night. The air-conditioning in autumn is getting stronger and stronger, which seems to indicate that in the season of decline, some "decline" must happen today.
What to do? What else could it be? If a fight is unavoidable, let's fight to the death. If he makes a serious assessment, Chenxing thinks he doesn't have much chance of winning. She had never fought against someone with a magic pestle, but she had heard of it over the years. As for the strength of the Demon Snake... she didn't agree with it. Of course, as an evil messenger, she is already powerful enough, but she is still far behind Chenxing herself.
Whether this magic pestle is real or fake will be revealed soon.
The battle is about to break out.
The sound of weapons clashing could be heard continuously, and the sisters of the Ye family panicked. Of course, the two of them hoped that they could be of some help, but facing such an enemy with powerful weapons, facing such an enemy who was once a friend... they could do nothing to help. Neither Chenxing nor Shezishu left alone - they did not listen to the slanderous talk. That's natural. After all, they have been together for a long time. At least it's long enough for someone like Chenxing who is used to being alone.
Or... Liangtongue didn't really mean anything, she just wanted to try out a new weapon on them. Yin Huan thought that they might have come here with an eye on Chenxing's magic weapon. In this way, they would not make too much noise when they obtained the weapons previously, otherwise it would affect their subsequent actions. But what use do they need the magic weapon? Yin Huan didn't know either, she just made an irresponsible guess.
Now, she didn't have much time to think. She Zishu stomped his feet, and dense red flowers sprouted from the corner behind him. Although they are just a group of weak flowers, when their number reaches a certain level, the force they burst out together makes this seemingly solid wall fall apart. Without much hesitation, the three of them immediately stepped through the broken turns, stepped through the dust, and fled to the outside of the alley. On this side of the wall was the courtyard of a certain family. Before the owner could come out to check, they quickly crossed the courtyard.
On the other side, the battle between Chenxing and Demon Snake was in a stalemate. Chenxing had no more energy to deal with Xue Miyin, but she did not take action against Chenxing. She easily took advantage of the opportunity created by the Demon Snake and left, going to track down the evacuated people.
Miyin is not bad at acting alone. She had been alone for a long time. She was very fast, and soon she could see the shadows of the three people. Their chaotic footsteps were particularly noticeable on the quiet street. Yin Huan glanced back and noticed that Xue Miyin was getting closer. There are no lights on the street, and this chase is undoubtedly not good for ordinary humans.
At this moment, Yin Hu suddenly turned sharply and ran in the other direction.
Ling Quan was startled and his feet stopped. Before she could call her sister, She Zishu suddenly covered her mouth. In just a short moment, Zishu understood Yin Huan's intention. She made a silent gesture to Ling Huan, then pulled her to continue running in the original direction.
Miyin suddenly stopped and fell into brief confusion.
Who just left the team?
No matter how good the monster's eyesight is, it is difficult to identify it just by looking at its back. What's more, She Zishu's red clothes were so eye-catching that Mi Yin didn't notice the difference between the two people's attires. She thought hard, maybe it was Ling Huan who left alone. She wanted to carry everything alone without hurting others. What's more, the one left behind didn't make a sound and was probably mute. But...that's not right either. Would She Zishu be indifferent to this? Or does she immediately choose who to cooperate with? If Yin Huan was leaving the team, her sister would definitely call her to stop her, but She Zishu did not do so. Could it be that they had agreed upon it and deliberately confused themselves?
How can it be? There has never been this time from before to now.
But her thinking didn't last long. Soon, she headed in the direction of what was obviously the "bait". The reason is simple. No matter who that person is, she only needs to deal with one person, and does not have to face the woman in red whom she cannot figure out. If it were Ling Yu, then things would be much easier to handle; if not, as long as she could control that ordinary person, her good sister would definitely not abandon her.
She Zishu pulled Ling Huan and ran for a long time. Finally, Ling Huan struggled to shake off her hand. Zishu never seems to feel tired, and his breath has not been disturbed at all until now. But Ling Huan was panting and obviously exhausted.
Zishu raised her wrist and found that her wrist was dislocated the moment the other party shook her off.
Even though she was aware of this, she didn't feel much pain. She quickly reset the dislocated part, and at the same time, she remembered that she was grabbing her dangerous right hand. The crisp voice immediately caught Ling Huan's attention. She tried hard to control her breathing and asked tentatively:
"Did I hurt you?"
"It's nothing." She Zishu stretched out his hand again, "If you don't run away, she might still chase you."
"I can't run anymore!" Ling Huan stamped her foot and said out of control, "She must be chasing my sister, how can I escape alone?! We have to find a way, I want to save her, I, I cannot……"
She was emotionally unstable, and Shezi knew it. It was difficult for her to sense the other party's uneasiness, but based on Ling Huan's painful expression, Zi Shu vaguely felt that she should not let Ling Huan be like this. But what else could she do?
So, she said seriously: "We can't do anything. Yin Huan left us behind to attract her attention, so I will help her to ensure your safety."
"How could you do this?!"
"Other than that, I don't know what else to do."
"you you--"
Ling Huan felt angry, but knew that he was in the wrong. She really has no obligation to help herself, and she has no position to order her anything. Ling Huan became more and more painful. She held her head and slowly squatted on the ground, holding her hair tightly with her hands and almost pulling out all the strands. She Zishu saw it and gently pulled her arm.
"Don't you think I should do this?"
"You obviously...you can obviously fight. You can obviously stop all this." When he said this, the tip of Ling Huan's nose felt sore. But she suppressed more emotions and tried hard not to shed tears. She took a deep breath and continued: "I'm not blaming you. You have helped us so much. I shouldn't complain about any choice you make. I'm just messing around..."
Ling Huan was not ashamed to admit this. She Zishu was silent for a long time and tried to pull her up again.
"I don't know why I didn't fight." She said seriously, "It's like there is a voice in my heart, it controls me. Compared with defeating that woman, protecting your safety comes first. When the accident does happen - For example, if Yin Hu suddenly chooses to leave us, I must make a choice."
"...What choice?"
"Minimize the damage. In other words, protect your safety. You are the direct target of that woman, aren't you?"
Ling Huan rubbed his face, trying to make himself more awake in the cold night. She stood up straight again and looked at She Zishu seriously. After hesitating for a moment, she asked Zishu a question.
"Is it because... Chen Nuxia said before that she asked you to protect us?"
"...I don't deny this possibility."
Zishu looked at her with such sincerity, as if she really knew nothing about it. After so many days, Ling Huan has become somewhat accustomed to it - She Zishu is such a person, and she should remember it from the first time they met. Zishu has been following them until now just because she has nowhere to go. She is only familiar with herself, so she just follows her. But he had already found his sister, and her sister followed another heroine, so the four of them established a connection. It stands to reason that Zishu and Chenxing met for the first time. Until now, it hasn't been long, but he "obeys her words" - even though Chenxing is still wary of her.
"Do you really need someone to tell you what to do?" Ling Huan tried to ask, "Chen Nuxia will assign work to us, and we will only execute it... just like you. Only who If they come to ask you, even if it is not the other person’s original intention or your original intention, you will... uh, you will implement it as your own wish?"
She Zishu was stunned again. She didn't say anything, she just kept her eyes open and looked across the empty street. Ling Huan was right, she was a person without her own opinion, and she wouldn't even be angry because of these words. She even wanted to ask, "Should I be angry?" But this didn't seem like the right time to ask.
"You might be right." Zishu finally came back to his senses, "We should give it a try."
"Hey, how can we try this?" Ling Huan shook his head, "This idea is too ridiculous, and you haven't denied it. This is even more ridiculous. I really can't understand how someone can be like this, but...but It seems that nothing is surprising about what happened to you. You - what are you? Even the evil angel said that you are not an ordinary person. Could it be..."
"I guess I'm not an evil envoy." Zishu shook his head.
"...Well, I think so too. Otherwise they will definitely expose you. Moreover, you still have good intentions. You know to help us and protect us, and you will not abandon us when we are in danger."
"I don't know why, I just instinctively feel that I shouldn't do this."
"Maybe it's our wishes that make you not want to do anything to hurt us. Because we regard you as a friend."
Zishu nodded and said, "Then let's give it a try."
She said it again. It seems that she is also very concerned about her behavior pattern. But at this time, Ling Huan could already understand what she meant. She had an idea—a somewhat bold one.
"I haven't caught up until now. Miyin must be chasing my sister." Ling Huan said, "Then, I ask you to do something for me... No, I ask you to help me!"
She Zishu tilted his head and asked curiously: "Tell me about it?"
"Go and protect my sister." Ling Huan said one word at a time, "Don't worry about me anymore! Make sure she's okay... make sure she's safe! I'll go back to find Chen Nuxia, she will definitely need help too."
"How can you help?" Zishu didn't understand. "She is dealing with Liangtan just to let you escape successfully."
"Do as I say!" Ling Huan suddenly raised his voice, "Please - listen to me! I need Yin Huan to be okay, I really, really need her to be okay! If there is anything wrong with her, everything else will It’s meaningless! If I want to go home with her, I’ll take her home with me! I originally ran away from home just for her voice and for her to be free! Now I know how cruel this world is. So naive! I want to live with her! Can you understand this feeling? I know, maybe, maybe you are not too sure, but Miyin does not have the magic pestle or the piano in her hand. She should just I should bring that knife with me, I am not your opponent..."
She Zishu pondered for a while, raised his head and said:
"I understand what you mean."
