"Devil?" Gu Xichen repeated these two words, and let out a mocking laugh, "I do believe that there are people like demons."

"Indeed." Gu Yan responded casually, without saying anything more.

There is no moon in this world, so it is really dark after nightfall, the kind where you can't see your fingers.

In such darkness, if you can't hear the sound, you will mistakenly think that there is nothing around you.

In fact, Gu Yan could feel Gu Xichen's aura, and even knew that he was always on guard around him.

But as a "weak woman with no power to restrain a chicken", she couldn't bear not being able to hear a little sound in the dark.

So not long after the topic ended, Gu Yan said again: "Are you asleep?"

"No."

"Then...can I hold your hand?" Gu Yan asked tentatively, "Otherwise I'm too scared to sleep."

Gu Xichen was silent for a while, as if she wanted to refuse, but couldn't bear it.

In the end, he responded indifferently: "Yes, but after you hold it, don't talk, keep as quiet as possible, the ghost knows what's in the dark."

As he said, he stretched out his injured right hand towards Gu Yan,

"Okay~" Gu Yan responded happily, reaching out and grabbing his hand unceremoniously.

At that moment, Gu Xichen was obviously taken aback: "You..."

"Ok?"

"Can you see me?"

"I can't see it."

"Then how do you know where my hand is?"

"..."

Oh shit, I made a mistake.

Gu Yan thought, if you stretched out your hand, wouldn't it be embarrassing if I didn't hold it immediately?

But he forgot that human beings do not have such keen perception as him.

It is also impossible to clearly judge where the opponent's hand is.

Fortunately, Gu Yan reacted quickly: "I just grabbed it based on my feeling, and I didn't expect to catch it just right. This is probably the legendary... a woman's sixth sense?"

"Okay." Gu Xichen seemed to accept the answer.

Gu Yan held Gu Xichen's hand, and could feel that his hand was not smooth, and there were many calluses on the palm.

But at the same time, he also grasped the shape of most of the joints of Gu Xichen's hand by holding Gu Xichen's hand, and felt that if he could see it, it should be a very beautiful hand.

Because they were holding hands, Gu Yan and Gu Xichen could easily judge each other's basic state, at least they knew that the other party was not asleep like themselves.

Maybe it was because she couldn't bear the loneliness, or maybe she wanted to take the opportunity to ask for some information. Gu Xichen, who said she wanted to keep quiet, broke the silence first: "How old are you?"

Gu Yan guessed that Gu Xichen would not exceed 30, so she kept it as small as possible and said, "20, what about you?"

"26."

"Wow, can't tell, I thought you were in your early 20s."

Gu Xichen pretended not to hear this sentence, and asked herself: "Are you in college?"

"No." Gu Yan sighed, pretending to be regretful, "I have been weak and sick since I was a child, and I seldom went to school. Even the nine-year compulsory education was completed at home with the help of servants, let alone University."

"It feels like your family is rich."

"Is it?" Gu Yan didn't know what counted as being rich, but he did have nothing to worry about.

Because he inherited the company of his mother, whom he had never met.

Because of this, even if he knows nothing but fighting, he can live a stable life in the human world without harming humans.

"After asking so many things about me, you also talk about yours?" Gu Yan is now full of interest in the human being beside him, "What do you do?"

"I..." Gu Xichen was about to answer, when he suddenly heard a slight sound not far away, he broke free from Gu Yan's hand almost immediately, raised his hand to cover his mouth, but because he underestimated Gu Yan's Tall, a slap on his flat chest.

Gu Yan: "..."

Let me not complain about your sexual|harassment first, am I so short at 1.8 meters in your eyes!

Although it is indeed a little shorter than you...

Gu Xichen quickly realized what she had touched, quickly adjusted the height of her hand, and successfully covered Gu Yan's mouth.

Probably because he was afraid that Gu Yan would scream because of being "sexually harassed", so he covered it tightly, as if vowing to smother Gu Yan to death.

Knowing that he didn't do it on purpose, and that he wasn't being taken advantage of because he was a man, Gu Yan cooperated very well without making a sound. Pay attention to the breath not far away.

That ominous smell... I don't know what it is, but it's definitely not human.

Gu Yan and Gu Xichen are currently staying in a boxy space of about fifty square meters surrounded by three-meter-high stone walls on all sides. There are two entrances and exits at 90-degree angles.

The reason why I chose to rest here is that it is easy to escape, and the second is that it allows more room for long-range weapons such as pistols.

As the distance shortened, the suspicious sound gradually became clear, it was the sound of a person's footsteps.

The sound of unhurried footsteps came from far to near, and it was obvious that they were walking in their direction.

Originally, Gu Yan and Gu Xichen were sitting against the wall, but now they both stood up.

The difference is that Gu Xichen stood up by himself, while Gu Yan was forcibly pulled up by him covering his mouth.

Ah, this domineering man.

If I didn't know a little bit about you, knowing that you wanted to protect me, I would have thought you wanted to bully me.

After confirming that Gu Yan would not struggle, Gu Xichen leaned into his ear and said in a voice that only he could hear: "If there is danger, you stand here and don't move, I will lure them away." Pause , and added, "Just now... I'm sorry."

Gu Yan nodded again and again, and at the same time complained in her heart - it's too close!Do you dare to come any closer!

He had never whispered to someone so close in his life, and the heat on his ears made half of his body stiff.

However, after Gu Xichen let go of his mouth and backed away, Gu Yan adjusted her state almost immediately, calmly put her hand into the pocket of her skirt, and held something icy and cool.

For a long time, whether Gu Yan or Gu Xichen, apart from footsteps, they could only hear each other's breathing and heartbeat.

The footsteps were getting closer, and at the same time, a faint red light lit up at the end of the darkness.

Soon, the owner of the footsteps turned the last corner and completely appeared in the field of vision of Gu Yan and Gu Xichen.

At the same time, there was also a pair of eyes emitting a faint red light in the dark.

It is really a very faint light, but it is particularly conspicuous in the darkness where you can't see your fingers.

Gu Yan heard the sound of a pistol being loaded next to her ear, and subconsciously glanced at it from the corner of her eye.

Although he couldn't see it clearly, he could tell that at this moment, Gu Xichen was pointing the gun in the direction of the red light with his uninjured hand.

Immediately afterwards, he complained in a low voice: "Tsk, it seems that he is not someone who can easily negotiate."

Gu Xichen was injured on his right hand, so it was only his left hand that was holding the gun at the moment.

But Gu Yan thought about it, the first time Gu Xichen shot at the tree demon, he held the gun in his left hand. Although he didn't know if he was left-handed, his injury shouldn't affect his use of the gun.

Different from the two people who were nearly blind at the moment, the unknown humanoid creature with red eyes could clearly see them, and was walking in the direction where they were, and was less than ten meters away from them. When he opened his mouth happily, it was a somewhat rough male voice: "The master of this world is quite thoughtful, isn't he? He even prepared food for us children of the night."

Children of the night?

Bloodlines?

Gu Yan was still guessing, but suddenly heard a "bang!", and shrank back in fright.

—— Gu Xichen who was beside him shot!

However, in the face of Gu Xichen's sudden attack without warning, the two red lights drew two wanton arcs in the air, and the man suspected of being a blood clan escaped at an incredible speed!

"Let's go!" Gu Xichen made a decisive decision and pushed Gu Yan hard while continuing to shoot at the opponent!

Gu Yan was pushed so that she staggered and almost fell.

If it wasn't the night at this moment, Gu Xichen would see his disbelief.

It's not that I'm dissatisfied with Gu Xichen's push, but——knowing that I have met an opponent that I can't deal with, why do I want to stay and let others go?

Was he planning to sacrifice himself for a stranger?

Gu Yan didn't understand.

Although Gu Yan will save people on a whim, but he is completely a kind of compassion for the weak by the strong.

Once he encounters a situation that he finds difficult, let alone saving people, even if he sacrifices everyone except himself, he will give priority to protecting his own life.

He thought it was the instinct of all living things.

But now it seems...

Humans, how interesting.

With a sound of "嗖——", the man with red eyes pierced through the air at a terrifying speed and approached Gu Xichen. At the same time, he opened his bloody mouth with a sharp smile, and was about to bite Gu Xichen's throat in one bite. .

And just a second before he attacked Gu Xichen, Gu Yan took the lead in hitting Gu Xichen's neck with a knife, and then pushed him to the ground, who had lost consciousness for a moment.

With a sound of "Boom--", the assailant slammed into the hard stone wall, smashing a big hole in the stone wall.

"...Huh?" He got up from the rubble on the ground, wondering what happened just now, and suddenly felt a chill, as if being stared at by a predator stronger than himself.

"I thought the vampires were very elegant creatures. You really broke my decades-long fantasy by yourself."

Gu Yan pulled the unconscious Gu Xichen out of the gravel and threw it aside, then took out something from the pocket of her skirt, and looked at the tall man in front of her with disgust with her silver eyes.

At this moment, in his eyes, the whole world has changed.

The earth is covered with a layer of dots of silver light, while the stone walls are deep black.

The man danced in front of his eyes like a mass of gray flames, the closer the flame was to the center, the darker it was, and the center was like a black hole that devoured everything.

On the other hand, Gu Xichen on the ground was silvery white, with a soft white light emitting from his whole body.

This is spiritual vision, one of Gu Yan's abilities, which can see through all appearances and directly hit the soul.

After turning on his spirit vision, his eyes would turn silver, but no one would notice this in the pitch black darkness.

Originally, spirit vision was used to distinguish humans from demons.

The human soul is pure white, and the devil is evil black.

But occasionally, it can also be used to distinguish some existence between humans and demons.

For example, the souls of vampires, zombies, and ghosts who are dead but not completely dead will turn gray in different shades.

But at this moment, Gu Yan turned on the Spirit Vision entirely for the purpose of grasping the enemy's position more accurately in the dark.

"Hey, Blood Race." When Gu Yan said this, he lowered his voice. Although his tone was calm, anyone could feel the anger he suppressed at the moment, "I've been very upset since I came here, Zhengchou No one is giving me a chance to vent, you've hit the bullet today. Since you want to die so much, well, I'll make it happen for you!"
