Between life and death [unlimited]

Dark, silent, windy.

This was originally a huge space with no light at all.

But at this moment, because of the dagger that suddenly appeared from nowhere, a cold-blooded light as thin as a silver thread slid across the necks of many pursuers at the scene.

As if the blood bomb in the human body was detonated in an instant, brilliant and dazzling blood flowers exploded one after another in front of Si Yufeng, making a sound like a surging fountain.

Si Yufeng suddenly thought of the word "mime drama" - the scene in front of him was like a movie without sound, but each frame of it had a very dynamic tension.

The seven corpses, which had changed from soft to stiff, kept falling backwards, as if they were following some strange and special law.This is also a gorgeous movement played with the lives of seven enemies.

It is a melodious piece of music performed by the Shinigami who harvests human lives with a "giant scythe".

At this time, Jiang Lai also quietly appeared behind his teammates.

He suddenly stretched out his hand to block Zhang Ruyu's face, and indifferently wiped away the fresh blood that was still warm on Si Yufeng's face.

Si Yufeng only felt a burst of cold breath approaching his back, and the next second, he heard the man's deep and sexy voice vibrating behind his ears.

Jiang Lai's tone was as calm and cold as ever.

"Let's go."

It's like the "let's go" that he said to him when he finished the task before.

These two words not only represent the end of this incident, but also represent another lucky survival between him and his teammates.

At this moment, Si Yufeng subconsciously closed his eyes.

He resisted the impact of those past events in his mind, and carefully felt the coldness from Jiang Yu's body that did not match the temperature of the human body.

The two were very close, and he could imagine that cold right hand covering his face, as if it could protect him from all dangers in the world.

Just like what he had dreamed of countless times in his dreams.

and that miserable past.

……

In fact, as early as when everyone was moving forward, Jiang Xun sensed something was wrong on the road ahead, and wanted to remind Si Yufeng and the others, but he didn't want to be chased and killed like this.

Rather than solving them one by one slowly, he is more used to annihilating them in one fell swoop.

What's more, it was almost late at night, and this was the battlefield he was most familiar with, and the boundless black around him was also his best camouflage.

So at the moment when everyone was ambushed just now, Jiang Xun immediately hid his breath and figure, hid in the cold and familiar darkness, and quietly waited for the "run out of ammunition and food" of those stupid pursuers .

What he didn't expect was that his teammates would rush back at the last moment.Jiang Xun also couldn't figure out why Si Yufeng, who always knew the pros and cons, would come back. He didn't expect that he would actually do such a stupid behavior like "sending death".

——Could it be that Si Yufeng would also tear off the outer veil and be impulsive and irrational?

So when those chasers were about to besiege Si Yufeng, although Jiang Xun wanted to kill those people directly, he finally suppressed his thoughts and just watched the battle on the scene with cold eyes.

He wanted to know whether Si Yufeng would continue to pretend at this critical moment of life and death.

Sure enough, he guessed the answer correctly.When he saw that Si Yufeng was able to dodge those attacks, Jiang Xun knew that his thinking was correct - Si Yufeng actually had some means of saving his life.

Thinking of this, Jiang Lai couldn't help but look at his teammate who was standing side by side with him at this time. He felt that he had become more and more unable to see through this person's true purpose.

From his intentional approach to him at the beginning, to the tacit cooperation between the two in the execution of the mission, and now they are more like friends living in harmony.

Moreover, the move that Si Yufeng showed just now to avoid the attacks of those pursuers made him even more unpredictable.

Then why did Si Yufeng deliberately show a fragile look that was powerless and completely ignorant of any tricks when he was by his side?Is he afraid that he has doubts about him, or is there another purpose?

Now he absolutely does not believe that Si Yufeng didn't come close to him with some purpose in the beginning.

But Si Yufeng has never done any harm to himself, and his various behaviors towards himself can also show that he has no intention of harming himself.So, what is his real purpose?

At this time, Jiang Lai suddenly remembered the last boss who looked like "Si Yufeng" in the last special game.Could the sudden behavior it did at that time - that unexpected kiss - be the true thoughts in the heart of the real Si Yufeng?

"Jiang Xun...you, what are you looking at?" In fact, Si Yufeng had already noticed the probing eyes of his teammates.But he was afraid, did Jiang Lai see himself dodging those attacks just now?

Hearing Si Yufeng's question, Jiang Xun immediately withdrew from his memories.

"It's nothing..." Jiang Lai's tone remained steady, showing no emotion at all.But he suppressed the flash of light in his eyes, and repeated in a cold voice: "It's nothing."

Although Si Yufeng's mind was still a little hot, he could still clearly feel an awkward atmosphere suddenly pervading between the two of them.

He raised his hand and wiped the little blood left on his face again, as if he could still feel the cold breath left by Jiang Lai, "Oh..."

"OK then……"

After the two returned to the team, Zhang Jian grabbed Si Yufeng's cuff and yelled, "Xiao Feng! You scared me to death just now. Why did you run back suddenly?"

"... With your small physique, isn't it equivalent to going back to give away the head and give him a blood?" Zhang Jian looked at Jiang Shi again, and found that Jiang Shi didn't express anything about Si Yufeng's actions. .

Therefore, the tone he said again could not help but sound a little unhappy: "Besides...you are still worried about others? What is the value of force, and what is the value of force? I don't have a point in my heart? You need to go Help, just take care of yourself, don't worry about those people who don't have feelings..."

"I know you're doing it for my own good, but it's okay. I wanted to do it myself..." Si Yufeng just wanted to grab Zhang Jian's cuff with his backhand, but then remembered that Zhang Jian was covered in mud, so he had to hold it in his ear. Bian whispered to persuade.

In fact, Si Yufeng's mood is also very complicated now, but he is not regretting that he went back to check on Jiang Xun's situation just now - it was a choice that followed his heart, even if he did it again, he would probably do the same choose.

Now he just regrets that he couldn't hold his breath back then.In fact, as long as he pretends for a while longer, Jiang Li will definitely show up in time to save him.

But why was he so impatient at that time, exposing himself recklessly.The longer he was with Jiang Xun, the less calm and rational he was before him.

Si Yufeng's mind gradually calmed down, and he began to quickly analyze the current situation: he didn't know how Jiang Xun would think of him now.Although Jiang Xun didn't directly question him about what happened just now, he believed that it was impossible for Jiang Xun not to have seen himself dodging those attacks.

Even, he began to suspect that Jiang Lai might appear behind on purpose—just to see his true ability, so he rescued him when he was really in trouble...

The inference made by Si Yufeng, who had recovered his normal thinking, really coincided with the realistic thinking of his teammates.For this situation, I don't know whether to say that the two teammates have too much understanding, or they still have doubts about each other, so they have suspicions.

At this time, Shen Yingying suddenly walked up to Si Yufeng timidly.Sensitive, she smelled a strong smell of blood on Father Si, so she asked concerned: "Father Si, are you okay? You were not injured just now, right?"

Si Yufeng has recovered his usual sanity.Although Shen Yingying might not be able to see it, his signature warm smile still hung on the corner of his mouth: "It's okay, Yingying. I'm fine, thank you for your concern."

"That's good..." Shen Yingying suddenly asked again: "Father Si... Then, we have no enemies now, should we find a way out?" In fact, she was concerned about Si Yufeng's physical condition, It was also to confirm whether he could still take them out.

After all, Si Yufeng was the one with the highest IQ on the surface among the five.

Si Yufeng replied quickly: "Of course." He suddenly thought of a question that he had ignored just now, so now he asked Jiang Xun again: "Jiang Xun, have you noticed that there are people watching us secretly all the time?"

His current tone sounded very normal, as refreshing as before.This is also his best camouflage for those things before, once again treating everyone equally with a kind and gentle face, as if he is really just a priest who "pursues all living beings".

Jiang Lai cast a sideways glance at Si Yufeng, who had put on layers of camouflage again, probably because he didn't expect Si Yufeng to be able to guess what he had discovered before.

But seeing that it was getting late, and he had detected a layer of Si Yufeng's true face this time, anyway, the original goal had been achieved, so he simply replied: "It's just to the southeast of us."

Zhang Jian and Shen Yingying didn't expect that someone was following them all the time, and they all expressed their surprise after hearing Jiang Lu's words.

"...What the hell? Someone has been following us?"

"Big brother Bingshan, did you find out a long time ago? Why didn't you tell us..."

Jiang Lai stood there calmly, and did not answer the questions of these partners, his cold face always had the same expression.

But Si Yufeng knew what he was thinking - Jiang Xun just wanted to take this opportunity to check Si Yufeng's real details.

So after regaining his composure, he immediately thought that those pursuers could not be sent by the Divine Blessed Knights—because something he had done before eliminated this possibility—then, those people might be people from other organizations.But he also knew that it was impossible for the Divine Blessed Knights not to send someone to monitor them secretly.

And he knew very well that it was impossible for Jiang Lai's keen senses not to notice the person who had been staring at them secretly.

"Okay, then we will head southeast." Si Yufeng withdrew his thoughts at this moment, and asserted: "The way of life is to the southeast of us."

On the way back, Si Yufeng was still standing beside Jiang Xun.

The walking posture and atmosphere of the two people are also the same as before.Jiang Xun was still as cold as ice, while Si Yufeng was always as warm as spring.It is true that the true thoughts of this pair of teammates cannot be seen from their bodies or the expressions on their faces.

Si Yufeng silently felt the icy aura emanating from Jiang Xun's body, and he never blamed Jiang Xun for what he had done to him before.

Including temptation, including deception, and even his intentional concealment.

However, this time, he refreshed his inherent impression of Jiang Xun - he thought that Jiang Xun was a "ignorant" killer who had a casual attitude towards life and didn't care much about the background of the people around him.But in fact, in the "loser", that is, when he revealed more secrets, Jiang Xun's curiosity and doubts about him should never have weakened.

The night was as dark as Si Yufeng's eyes.He suddenly turned his head and looked straight at Jiang Xun, thinking of his unspoken crush on him.

A sense of excitement of "meeting the opponent" also rushed into his heart in an instant.

——Jiang Lai really lived up to his expectations.

His roommate, his teammates, and his god really made the current situation more and more interesting.

After that, according to the southeast direction mentioned by Jiang Lai, everyone left the cloud sea forest that had trapped them for a long time.

When they parted, Shen Yingying's restless girlish heart felt strongly unwilling again—this spring outing, she couldn't stay alone with Brother Bingshan for long!Therefore, she once again sent an invitation to Jiang Xun and her boss, Yu Feng, without giving up.

"Brother Bingshan, Father Si, when are you going to do the next hard task?"

Si Yufeng knew that Jiang Li would not answer this question, so he took the initiative to say: "It should be a while, we haven't finished the hard task last time. What's the matter, Yingying?"

Shen Yingying invited with some embarrassment: "Because Father Si and Brother Bingshan are very good...so, I want to invite you to join me in the third hard game~"

After finishing speaking, she looked at Jiang Yu with starry eyes, "Brother Bingshan promise me! My brother will accompany me alone, I don't worry..."

Shen Yu, who was inexplicably complained about by his sister: "..."

"Shen Yingying, tell me clearly, how did I offend you? I am an old player who has been in the game world for a long time, why do you still worry about me?!"

"Oh, brother! Don't be so small-minded! Besides, you have the brains of Father Jia Si and the skills of Brother Bingshan?"

"..." Shen Yu asked himself that he might indeed be inferior to them in these two aspects.

but!He must be much better than ordinary people!

Zhang Jian also joined the conversation between the two at this time, and asked Shen Yu silently: "...how long have you been in the living space?"

"Five years." Shen Yu was sulking at his sister at this time, and didn't care too much about Zhang Jian's surprised expression after hearing it.

But after Zhang Jian heard Shen Yu's answer clearly, he resisted the urge to kneel down, obviously he didn't expect that he had pretended to be a "big boss" in front of a real big guy for so long...

What should he say about his mood now, in short, it is very complicated.His mind also jumped to think: the old saying really makes sense, "Don't pretend to be a gun, pretend to be struck by lightning".

Anyway, Zhang Jian just felt that he was being punished by God now, and felt like being struck by lightning.

"Ahem..." Si Yufeng saw the siblings bickering, so in order not to delay everyone's sleep, he had no choice but to come out to smooth things over.He faked a cough, and said directly on behalf of Jiang Lu and Shen Yingying: "Yingying, we just happened to have reached the third hard task, so why not just ten days later—the fastest time for us to enter the game is ten days later, we are in Let's gather in front of the task station."

"Okay~!" Shen Yingying stuck out her tongue at her brother who was still chattering, and made a grimace, her expression seemed to say "you are a hot chicken in my heart".

Sure enough, Shen Yu was immediately furious. If it wasn't because someone was here, he might have used violence to solve it long ago!

"That..." Zhang Jian's voice was no longer as trembling as before, and he asked everyone weakly: "That... you go to perform the mission, can you also take me with you..."

In fact, Shen Yu had noticed the red cloak behind Zhang Jian a long time ago, and guessed that he was a trainee knight in the Divine Blessed Knights, so when he heard Zhang Jian's question, he asked instead: "Aren't all the knights in the Knights Form a team together and carry out the mission?"

He was very curious why brother Zhang Jian would be so "unique" and take the initiative to carry out missions with people other than the God Blessed Knights.

Zhang Jian slapped his thigh, and the air-dried mud on his body fell down "patta pata", and a large cloud of dust immediately floated up around everyone.

"...Didn't I fall in love with you, and don't want to hang out with that broken knight group anymore? To be honest, I regret it very much now, why I couldn't think of where to go in at the time... It's just looking for sins for myself. !"

Shen Yu heard Zhang Jian's complaints about God's Bless Knights, and felt that this person was really interesting, and he dared to say that the largest organization of the City of Survivors was not good in front of other people.So, a cheerful smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, which made him look very sunny against his handsome appearance, but it didn't match the gloomy eyes in his eyes.

Only Shen Yu also sincerely invited Brother Zhang Jian: "Since we are destined to get together today, let's go to the hard task next time, too?" He looked at Si Yufeng who was standing opposite him again, and smiled. meaning is stronger.

"What do you think? Father Si, how about we all go to participate together?"

Si Yufeng didn't care, but he didn't expect Shen Yu to ask himself this question, "Yes. Of course, no problem." But he was still a little worried about Shen Yu's identity as an NPC, so he said cryptically: "...the third hard The task will be more difficult, right? Senior, are you sure you want to go with us?"

Zhang Jian replied carelessly: "Anyway, I don't want to be a poor knight, so I will do tasks with you in the future!"

Shen Yu showed a firm smile of "don't worry" to Si Yufeng, "I also want to go with Yingying, so I'm fine."

Shen Yingying and Zhang Jian were the most excited in the audience, as if they were about to go on a spring outing again, they both laughed happily.

Jiang Xun could clearly see the concern for Shen Yu in Si Yufeng's eyes, but he couldn't figure out what to worry about for an old player like Shen Yu who had been in the living space for a long time.

Therefore, he had no choice but to attribute what he saw to "Si Yufeng did have a strange feeling for Shen Yu" in his heart.

From this point of view, the "Under the Underground" action he had thought about before, which looked like Si Yufeng's boss, should be just a random arrangement of the system.
