The man in white walked unhurriedly in the middle of the trail, his body always maintaining a high degree of vigilance, which made his walking posture look monotonous. His cold eyes stared at the end of the road without squinting, and the pleasant scenery of the valley was simply unattractive.
His gaze.
There is no expression on the handsome face, or not even a trace of human emotion has been revealed, and even the previous sharp aura is gone. From the perspective of others, he is not so much like a person as he is like a piece of stone.
A lonely stone, or like a piece of cold steel.
"Brother... stay here! Brother..." In the distance, a passionate shout came from behind the man in white. The tail end of the shout was long and high, like a child who saw his beloved toy.
The man in white stopped. Of course he knew that this man had been running around the valley several times. Now that he had caught up with him, in order to get out of trouble as soon as possible, he wanted to send this man away at once.
"Hi!" A young man in black robes jumped from the woods in front to the middle of the trail and made a surprised expression of a chance encounter: "What a coincidence, brother! We meet again!"
The man in white didn't answer, and he didn't even focus his indifferent eyes on the man in black. He jumped forward directly and stabbed out with his sword without any tricks - he knew that the man in black moved very fast, so he used his
He drew his sword at a speed that was just too fast to dodge, but the man in black obviously didn't use all his strength just now. He yelled and turned over to avoid it.
"Don't be like this, brother, I'm not a bad person." After avoiding the sword, he stared at the man in white with innocent eyes: "I really want to be friends with you..."
The silent man in white shook his sword, and a sword that was faster than before appeared in the eyes of the man in black.
But the man in black was destined to bring him more surprises. He shouted those meaningless words and avoided this series of attacks. This made the man in white have to re-evaluate his strength and analyze his situation in his mind.
Motives for strange behavior.
"Don't be like this, don't be like this. I have dodged many attacks. I am qualified to talk to you!" The man in black shouted: "My heart has been broken by you...Brother!"
Like an attack without warning, the man in white suddenly sheathed his sword, and his flying figure stopped in the road. Due to inertia, at this moment, his long golden hair and flowing white clothes were stirring,
The extremely familiar sight made someone's heart almost stop.
The man in white had seen the strange look in the black people's eyes more than once. The man in black had surprise and confusion in his eyes, and his enthusiasm seemed to be mixed with sadness. Even though he was calm, he was full of curiosity about this look.
"If you have something to say, just say it."
"I...I...that..." The man in black didn't dare to be careless at all. He kept his whole body ready to jump up at any time, with an awkward and rogue smile on his face, and raised one hand in front of him and spread it out.
Palm: "I'm here to give you money. You just ate three loaves of bread in that store, and the boiled water was free. After you tipped the guy a copper plate, you still have a silver coin. I originally wanted to save that copper plate for you.
I want to reward you, but I'm afraid of ruining your image. You know you're handsome! I hope you won't blame me for spending so much..."
The man in white looked at the few coins in his hand, and for a moment he didn't know how to answer him. His identity was secret, and no one should know it, let alone a demon. The man in black was already very good at martial arts, so he didn't know.
It is necessary to use such methods to win over and use him, not to mention that the methods he used are really stupid and should not be planned.
"Give it to me." It took a long time before the man in white said a word.
Several copper coins were thrown and flipped in the air until they were caught by the man in white.
"I should kill you." After catching the copper coin, the man in white raised his eyebrows: "You really have a purpose."
"I, I, what is my purpose?" the man in black asked stammering, with a look of panic on his face.
"It won't work if you put poison on the copper coins." The man in white opened his fingers and dropped the copper coins at his feet: "Poison is ineffective on me."
"Hey... no, that's not poison, it's really not." The man in black stopped talking, his expression looked very innocent: "Well, it's just a little sweat..."
"Lying." The man in white didn't understand why he talked so much today: "You have great martial arts skills, and your body won't sweat while running this distance."
"I didn't lie." The other party replied stupidly: "That's the sweat on my palms. I didn't know you were allergic to it. I sweated on purpose. I ran around this valley several times..."
"Reason." Even when he was asking, the man in white showed no expression on his face, and there was no trace of doubt in his tone: "I think, although this is a small matter, if I can sweat a little, at least it will show that
I'm very sincere..." When he said this, the man in black suddenly became very shy, and the little bird on his shoulder dropped to the ground.
The two people were ten arms apart, looking at each other in silence, neither knowing the other's true thoughts. After a long time, the man in white bent his knees and picked up the copper coins at his feet one by one.
"I'll accept the money and you can leave." The man in white turned around and prepared to continue on his way.
"Um - can I know your name?"
"Crow." The man in white condensed his body: "My name is Crow."
After knowing his name, the talkative man behind him did not speak at this time. After taking a few steps, the man in white heard two extremely subtle sounds with his excellent hearing - the sound of liquid dripping from grass blades.
He turned around and saw two lines of clear tears on the face of the man in black, and the emotion in his eyes was even stranger... But there was something akin to obsession in it that angered the man in white!
It was almost a natural reaction. The man in white stabbed out his sword silently, and the sword tip instantly appeared on the chest of the man in black. The man in black ignored the sharp sword tip until the sword condensed on the chest of the man in black.
, he didn’t make any move.
From the look in the other party's eyes, the man in white knew that he had never thought of evading or counterattacking, but his casual sword could never penetrate.
The expression of the man in black was very complex and very real. He slowly lowered his head, his eyes seemed to be entangled with endless regret, which made people feel unbearable. After a long time, he raised his head, although the corners of his eyes were still
There were tears, but the sadness in his expression had faded away and was replaced by gratitude...
The man in white even felt that if someone could change so many expressions in such a short period of time, then he deserved to be deceived.
"Crow..." The man in black said in a hoarse, trembling voice: "My name is Baiyun."
"Aren't you afraid of death?" For the first time, the doorman's words contained a little tone.
"I'm afraid, I'm really uncle." The man in black replied: "But I'm even more afraid that if I hide, I'll be chased and then run away... If that happens, I might as well hit you with a sword."
"You are boring." Crow put away his sword: "What do you want?"
Bai Yun's face was unusually thick, because he immediately made an exaggerated expression of surprise: "Let's just be friends..."
"I have no friends and don't need them."
"There's a first time for everything! How will you know you don't need it if you don't try? I have a hunch that we will become friends and nothing can stop us..."
"Even if I need to give it a try, you're not the right person."
"How do you know I'm not a real person if you haven't tried?" Someone will never give up until he achieves his goal: "Anyway, you can't fight me away, you can't throw me away, and you still can't kill me, so just give me a try.
"
"I can try to kill you again."
"Don't be a spoiler... Do you think this is good? We'll limit it to half a month. If you feel that I'm not suitable to be your friend by then, I will disappear immediately. I will do what I say!"
"Then it's settled! We'll set off together as trainee friends. Crow, where is your destination?"
"The capital of Trafa Empire..."
"God's will! That's where my goal is! Wow! Now I can't even think about leaving together!" Someone showed his arrogant true colors: "Crow, wait a moment, I'll fetch the horse - don't think about it
Sneak away! Let me tell you, my tracking skills are superb, you will never be able to get rid of me!"
Crow - stood quietly on the path, regretting in his heart, not knowing whether the decision he made on a whim just now was right or wrong. The man in black named Baiyun jumped up and ran to lead the horse. He did not hide his feelings.
He was so excited that he was shouting a little tune that was spread somewhere.
"Wow! Crow, I'll ride this white horse for you!" The horse's reins were forced into his hands, and he didn't even have a chance to refuse: "Like it! I've prepared everything!"
Crow shook his head and got on the horse in silence.
"I said Crow, how old are you? Are you twenty?" Bai Yun looked at him intently and never looked away: "Answer me! We are trainee friends now..."
"Twenty-five."
"Lying is immoral...how old are you?"
"twenty."
"I just said I guessed it right! So, you always remember the past, right? Have you ever lost your memory or something like that? Tell me! Tell me..."
"No."
"No? You didn't lie to me, did you? Where were you a year ago?"
Amidst Bai Yun's endless nonsense, night slowly fell, and the two of them arrived at the next town. Because the crow had to continue on its way, Bai Yun hurriedly replenished a lot of food and set off together."
At midnight, the crow suddenly pulled the horse's head and turned onto a small road. Although Bai Yun didn't understand what he was going to do, he followed him closely!
"Where are we going? Where does this path lead to?" Bai Yun kept talking.
"I want to do something, you can wait for me here." Crow pointed at a large building in the distance: "You can also follow me."
"Of course I went with you!" Bai Yun slapped his chest loudly: "It's your duty to protect your friends... But, what are we going to do?"
"Go kill people." Crow replied calmly.
"Okay... kill someone?" Bai Yun asked stupidly, "Why do you want to kill people?"
"The purpose of my existence is to kill people, nothing more."
"Is that so? Then I'd better go with you." Bai Yun put away his smile: "Although I won't help you kill people, I can snatch you away when you miss..."
"Do you think I'm going to miss?"
"There will always be times when we make mistakes! This is not a good career." Bai Yun stopped: "Let's prepare first. This stupid bird can help us see things. First, take off the cloak and take off all the cumbersome things on the body.
, also take down the things that make noise...Why don't you make preparations? Do you think you are going sightseeing?"
"I have nothing to prepare for."
"Brother, since you are a killer, can you please be more professional?" Bai Yun said with a very experienced look, "At least put on night clothes!"
"Night-walking clothes." Crow blinked: "I always wear my night-walking clothes."
"Although you are very handsome, please make sure your clothes are white!"
"Who says white can't be used as night clothes?"
Bai Yun looked at Crow's pure white clothes and slapped his forehead. After he recovered, he shook his thumb at him, feeling that he had nothing to say.
Seeing Bai Yun's sullen look, Crow couldn't help but feel the pleasure of successful revenge. Although it was true that he would never wear clothes of other colors except white! But he was immediately shocked that he felt like this. His heart was not always turbulent.
Aren't you surprised?
"Well! There are several doors! Which door do you plan to enter through?" While Crow was thinking wildly, Bai Yun had already stood at a high place: "As for the main entrance, there should be a lot of guards. I think we can enter directly from the tower.
, there is a window there, the height and angle are very suitable...Who is the target?"
"The target is a forty-year-old nobleman. Tonight is his birthday." Crow raised his hands and looked at Baiyun with interest: "Every move you make is professional. Is it possible that you are also a killer?"
"No, actually I'm just a traveling magician." Bai Yun smiled sarcastically: "But sometimes, I'm short of money... so I don't mind being a thief part-time or something."
"Understood, then let's get started!" Crow picked up his sword: "Don't let go of any guests at the party."
"I won't help you kill people...that's violence, I will stay away from violence..."
Two figures, one white and one black, jumped to the top of the tree and flew towards the building in the distance... (To be continued)
