Chapter 763 Blade of Vengeance

After returning home, Hongye rarely did anything, but quietly curled up on the sofa in a daze.Although Zhou Yu couldn't empathize with her, it could be seen that this night's defeat had dealt a great psychological blow to her.

It's not that he doesn't want to comfort the other party, it's just that he doesn't know how to speak at all.In fact, he didn't even know why Hongye was so depressed.It's true that they can't defeat Sang Lian right now, but in that case, it's good to find a new countermeasure.And Hongye's emotions are not so much helplessness with the situation as dissatisfaction with her own performance.In a more classical way, it's like the shame of being kicked off in public during a martial arts competition.

The gloomy atmosphere surrounding Hongye at this moment made Zhou Yu constantly have such associations.And since Zhou Yu neither thinks he is a chivalrous man, nor regards rolling off the ring tactically as a personality stain, he can't resonate with Hongye at all.

So, he put away the redundant words, took Hongye's boots and put them in the entrance, and washed them with a towel dipped in soapy water over and over again—Hongye's coat had already been soaked in the basin by him, as for the unsavory one. Yu Huanxin's yellow tracksuit was thrown into the trash can early on the way back.When he brushed it for the fourth time, Hongye on the sofa finally recovered from the state of daze.

She walked to the door of the bathroom and said seriously to Zhou Yu, "Zhou Yu, I have to leave for a while."

"Well, brush your boots clean before you go out." Zhou Yu said without raising her head.

"Zhou Yu, you really care too much about hygiene. If you are like you, you can't survive in the land where the insects rot. When I was there, it took me half a month to take a shower..."

"Hongye, it's ok. If you go on, I have no choice but to brush you up."

Hearing his threat, Hongye put her hands on her hips, silently expressing her dissatisfaction.Probably because she felt that Zhou Yu could not be persuaded in the short term, she finally skipped the topic and continued: "Zhou Yu, I am going to leave here, which means leaving this city."

Zhou Yu finally stopped what she was doing, and turned to look at her in surprise.

"That person named Sang Lian, don't you care about his affairs?"

"No, I'm traveling for this purpose. Sang Lian's ability is just restrained by me, and I can't subdue him in my current situation. I have to find external help."

When she said this, Hongye paused for a moment, with obvious unwillingness on her face, but she continued in the end: "I'm going to the mountains to ask my master, if my master isn't here, I can only find another friend."

"your friend?"

"Well, it's a friend who grew up together."

Zhou Yu looked at her in surprise.To be honest, he had hardly imagined Hongye's childhood life before.This fact is curious, but now is clearly not the time to be concerned.

"Even you can't handle Sang Lian, can your friend be stronger than you?"

"This is not a matter of strength or weakness, but of the nature of things. When dealing with Sang Lian, she should be more favorable than me."

Momiji's expression gradually softened.Just by looking at her current expression, one can understand the importance of "friends" in her mouth.

Facing her determination, Zhou Yu had no reason to object other than being surprised."How long will you be going?" he asked.

"If everything goes well, ten days will be enough. If the master is not around, it may take a while. I will definitely come back to solve Sang Lian's matter in January at the most."

"Understood, then you can go after the boots are brushed."

Although Zhou Yu said so, Hongye did not walk away for a long time, but stared at him seriously.

"Zhou Yu, you can't go to Sang Lian alone while we're away."

"I have no reason to ask for trouble. According to what you said before, he can't solve Zhang's problem, right?"

"Well... I'll think of a way to do this."

"You should focus on getting rid of that Sang Lian first. I went to see classmate Zhang a few days ago, and he is in very good spirits. He won't die if he waits for a month."

Zhou Yu took the dry towel next to her and hurriedly wiped Hongye's boots clean.Because it had already started to rain lightly when the two returned, it was inevitable that they would get dirty again when they went out, so he returned the boots to Hongye only after wiping them twice.

Hongye thought for a while holding the boots, then suddenly said, "Zhou Yu, come with me."

She led Zhou Yu to the living room, and pulled out a winged bone blade from under the sofa.

"This is……"

Zhou Yu naturally recognized this strange bone sword.Ever since Angti was sent away by Hongye, this sword has also disappeared. He always thought that Hongye took it elsewhere, but he didn't expect that the other party would put such a thing under the sofa.

"Zhou Yu, this sword is in your custody."

"Are you sure?"

"Well, this sword was originally given to Osir by my father. Since he gave it to you, it is yours. I shouldn't hide it, but frankly, I don't want you to touch this kind of sword." The monster."

"Then you take it back, I don't want this kind of thing." Zhou Yu replied honestly.

No matter what kind of rare magic weapon that bone sword is, it means little to him who has no foundation in swordsmanship.What's more, it is impossible to take such a ostentatious form on the street casually, and the effectiveness of actual combat may not be as much trouble as it causes.In contrast, he would rather choose a short and practical switchblade.

Hongye hesitated for a moment, but still insisted on handing over the sword.

"Let's take it just in case. Although this is a fierce sword, it is not evil in itself. If you are really in danger, Zhou Yu, don't hesitate to use it directly. With this, Even a guy like Motian should avoid you."

"Although you say so, I don't know much about swordsmanship. This kind of rapier needs basics in actual combat, right?"

Zhou Yu said while reaching out to take the bone sword.The seemingly cold and hard blade was surprisingly warm to the touch, almost giving the illusion of scalding the palm of your hand.He only held it for a few seconds before he had to put the sword back on the table.Seeing his reaction, Hongye smiled reassuringly.

"You don't need to think about sword skills, just keep it at home. Try to go out as little as possible, so that you don't need to use it... By the way, the name of this sword is 'Second King Sword' .”

"Is there still number one?"

"Yes, there are five swords in total, and they were awarded to five people."

Hongye tilted her head slightly, as if she was attracted by the sound of rain outside the window.The topic of the sword ended accordingly.

"Wumengxiang still has about five days' worth. I put it in the drawer on the right side of the sofa. Zhou Yu, you can use it according to the situation... Then it's not too late, I'm leaving now."

Five minutes later, after putting on her boots, Hongye simply bid farewell to Zhou Yu and walked out in her raincoat.Because her coat was still soaking in the basin, she was wearing Zhou Yu's clothes.

Zhou Yu stood in front of the window, watching the red leaves going down the stairs to the street and gradually going away.

The blue dress under the transparent raincoat gave him an illusion in a trance, as if it was not Hongye who was leaving him, but Zhou Yu.He almost wanted to chase after him desperately, but immediately suppressed this inexplicable urge.

Why go after the red leaves?The difference between Zhou Yu and Hongye, I am afraid no one in this world knows better than him.

In a daze, Hongye's figure had disappeared at the corner of the street.Zhou Yu stood quietly on the spot for a while, until the rain was blown on her face by the wind, and she belatedly wanted to close the window.

At this time, there was a fluttering sound in the dark rain, like the sound of wings flapping.A crow came through the window.It passed over Zhou Yu's head suddenly and landed on the tea table in the middle of the sofa.

Zhou Yu turned around slowly, and it took him a while to find it.Like a shadow at night, the pitch-black bird folded its wings on the table, staring at him quietly and strangely.

Zhou Yu saw a piece of smooth cloth tied to its left paw. The familiar material and pattern looked like fragments cut from a certain silk carpet.

The ominous guest who flew from outside the window first twisted his head in a mischievous manner, and then let go of his right paw.A green-stained ball of paper fell from its claws.

Zhou Yu stepped forward.It immediately flapped its wings and quickly fled into the rainy night outside the window.All that was left on the table was the old, dirty ball of paper.

Zhou Yu picked it up and unfolded it.

The ball of paper was covered with messy and crazy handwriting, all with only one word: kill, kill, kill...

He suddenly turned around and rushed to the bedroom, pulled out the diary that he hadn't read for a long time from under the pillow, and flipped the pages with trembling fingers.

February, January, last December, November...

October, the day of his birth, was a day lost by Zhou Yu before that.

He pressed the torn piece of paper on the broken page of the diary, the same paper, the same tear.

Having been missing for months, the last piece of the puzzle that had all but lost hope of finding it was so easily returned to its original place.
