“······ Because you are the first person in more than ten years to respect her so much. “

"Huh?!" Hua Li Xiao lost her voice, the first person to respect her in more than ten years was herself?

"But, this, this is politeness," Hua Lixiao said, "It's not respectful, besides, Auntie is so beautiful and so kind, how can no one respect her?"

"Yes..." When he looked at Li Ya again, his expression was a little dazed, and he spat lightly: "From the day she conceived me..."

"Brother Li, Brother Li, are you okay?" Hua Lixiao saw that there was something wrong with his expression, and shouted softly.

Suddenly, he woke up like a dream, turned his head back again, and said indifferently: "It's nothing, it's not early, let's go to bed early..."

Hua Lixiao didn't ask any questions, looking at Li Ya's appearance, there should be a sad past, in this case, why should he ask?

Also with the same thoughts, Hua Lixiao fell asleep a little groggy.

In the dream, Hua Lixiao once again dreamed of the picture of his mother telling him to read and write when he was a child, but as always, his mother's face in the dream was still a little blurry, and he couldn't see the agility and clarity.

"Xiao Er, this word is pronounced 'Xiao', it is your name, you must remember it..."

"Look, the 'Xiao' in your name is not the 'Xiao' in the musical instrument, that 'Xiao' is too desolate, too lonely, Mother, I don't want your future to be like that..."

It should be spring, right? The birch in the dream is very happy, there are peach blossoms not far away, and the scattered petals are like snow, and when they dance with the wind, they are like 'blood'!

"Mother!" Hua Lixiao shouted, and a dream came to naught.

Hua Lixiao struggled out of bed and combed his fluffy hair.

The moment of the nightmare was too short, so he didn't leave a cold sweat, and looked at the warm eyes in front of the window, not knowing whether to laugh or be speechless.

"Are you awake?" a voice said faintly not far away.

Hua Li Xiao looked back, and Li Ya was standing at the door, looking at him expressionlessly.

Hua Lixiao nodded, got out of bed directly, and got dressed, yesterday's battle made him a little sleepy last night, so that he slept until dawn.

"Come down, breakfast is ready. Li Ya didn't say anything more, turned around and disappeared into Hua Lixiao's sight.

Hua Li Xiao didn't have much restraint, at breakfast, he was as polite as last night, and Li's mother was too, and her smile was very bright, which made Li Ya look a little surprised, because her mother didn't seem to be like this for a long time, probably, it was more than ten years ago.

After the meal, Li's mother asked Liya to take Huali Xiao to the street, Liya was a little reluctant at first, but still complied with his mother's decision.

After the dawn of the sky, the blood bat town changed the weirdness and horror under the night, there is also a simple folk customs here, and there is also a lively market, with people weaving on it, and the cries are endless.

Hua Lixiao is definitely a "rich man" now, with 100 million Van coupons on his body, and he walks on the street with some differences from before.

After Hua Li Xiao Bar Jin made up the equipment consumed, he specially entered a good clothing estimator shop, and purchased a suitable clothes for Li Ya and Li Mu according to the size.

"No, no, this is too extravagant!" Li Ya refused again and again, his family background he knew by himself, since he was a child, his mother made clothes by stitches and threads, how could he ever buy one, not to mention that the quality of these clothes is still not low.

"Take it, it's a thank you gift from me for disturbing your family, and I hope to accept it with a smile. “

After all, Li Ya couldn't compete with Hua Lixiao, so he accepted it with a hint of apprehension.

After walking out of the clothing shop, the two continued to walk the streets, and Hua Li Xiao asked about the town and the origin of the bat.

"That's not a bat," Li Ya sighed, "Their name is 'Batman', and they are mutated from humans. “

"What?human beings?!" Hua Lixiao was shocked, no wonder the bats he saw yesterday all had human-like bodies, but their bodies and some unique appearances resembled bats.

"Listen to the older generation, this place has been like this since a long, long time ago, as early as the blood bat town has not appeared, ancient history has recorded that this great murderer once lived here, the source of the bloodline and the bat. “

"The power of the great murderer is extraordinary, and the ferocity shocked the people of that era, and in the end, perhaps it was not tolerated by heaven, or there was some other reason, the great murderer disappeared without a trace at some point, and the world has never seen it again. “

Since then, it is said that it has become a famous place in the vicinity because it is inhabited by a type of bat, the blood bat, which is different from bats in other regions. Li Ya's expression changed slightly, "Once you are scratched and bleeding by a blood bat, there is a chance of mutation! At best, it is just a mutation of some individual parts, and you can still retain your sanity, and at worst - completely alienated and become a bloodthirsty monster!"

"What!" Hua Lixiao was shocked, only to be scratched and bleeding...

"The completely alienated Batman also has this ability, but the probability is lower, and the bloodline 'inherited' from the Batman will be lower than that of the Blood Bat, and it will not be particularly refined; “

Hua Lixiao was in a cold sweat, fortunately, there were no injuries in the duel with the batman yesterday, otherwise the consequences would be unimaginable!

"The Bat People have existed for generations, because the ancestors are more or less difficult to avoid being attacked by the Blood Bats, and the Blood Bat Vein has never been cut off for generations, there have been people who want to exterminate this vein, but all of them have failed, and the end of several consuls is also very miserable, since then no one has ever had the idea of extinction of the Blood Bat; Li Ya paused, then stretched out his hand and pointed in one direction, "I don't want to be too far away from that mountain." “

Birch Xiao looked in the direction pointed by Li Ya, and a mountain towering into the clouds appeared in front of his eyes.

Hua Lixiao had noticed it long ago, the monk always had a special sense of the fluctuations of heaven and earth, and he had a strong fear of that mountain, but he also had a very strange feeling, indescribable, unclear.

The mountain was on the north and south sides, the south side was gently sloping, connected with several other mountain ranges, and the north side was an incredibly steep cliff, with no slope at all, and it rose straight into the clouds.

"It's hard to say where the batmen live, as long as there are darker places that can be inhabited during the day, the blood bats are different, the place where they live has not changed for generations, that is the mountain. At night they may fly away from the mountain to feed, but once daylight falls, they all return to the Blood Bat Mountain, and none of them will be left behind unless they are dead. “

"Because the ancestors have lived here for a long time, they are used to it, and they will not move to other places, and over time, in the long years of fighting against the blood bats, the ancestors have also learned to find things that the blood bat fears to protect themselves and use the power of the blood bat to strengthen themselves. At this point, Li Ya pointed to a shop in front of him and said, "In the shops in Blood Bat Town, there are some strange things that are used to restrain and disperse blood bats with different effects, just like the kind of powder mist I threw into the air last night, called 'Random Bat Scattering' Not only that, but the ancestors have been able to extract their power from the blood of the blood bat and some special plants on the blood bat mountain to strengthen themselves, and evolve some spells and tricks from the attack methods of the blood bats. And you should also see that every household in Blood Bat Town, whether poor or not, will have a few bright red lanterns hanging in front of their doors. ”

Unconsciously, they had come to a crossroads, and Hua Lixiao's expression froze, this is the place where he killed the batman yesterday and was besieged by the batmen.

"This is the relic that has been passed down through the ages in our Blood Bat Town, and we call it the 'Blood Suppression Altar'. ”

Hua Lixiao stared at the stone altar, which was the place of yesterday's treachery.

"There is a jar of water in the Blood Jar. Li Ya said.

"Water?" Hua Li Xiao was surprised and walked quickly into the stone altar, however, the scene in front of him really made him weird.

The water, really a jar of clear water, shimmered in the daylight.

"How can this be? What I saw yesterday was clearly —" Hua Lixiao said.

"It's a jar of blood, right?" Li Ya asked rhetorically, and when he saw that Hua Lixiao did not answer, he continued: "This water is born strange, some people say that it is water, and some people say that it is the blood of the great murderer; Under the light of the moon, it will make the people of the blood bat vein fear and awe, and when the moonlight fades, if people see their own reflection in the blood, there will be a great terror!"

Hua Lixiao heard a cold sweat, yesterday, he just glanced at it, and he was almost alienated into a batman!

"I don't know whether this altar of water is a bad or a blessing, but no one has ever been able to move it for so long, and when it becomes water during the day, as long as someone is sincere, they can take water from the stone altar, and the water taken out of it was made into a candle by the ancestors in an accident, and it was found that this candle has the effect of making blood bats and bat-people retreat and awe, and this is the origin of every household hanging red lanterns to avoid evil. “

Having said so much, Li Ya seemed to be a little tired, and let Hua rest together on the stone chair not far from Xiao Zhi.

Hua Lixiao casually turned his head as he walked, looked at the stone altar, and secretly said to himself: "Qinglong, do you recognize that kind of blood?"

Qinglong seemed to be stunned, not like he was responding to Hua Lixiao, but as if he was muttering to himself: "Blood, it's the blood of 'that person'..."

"That person?, who is that person?" Hua Lixiao wanted to ask again, not wanting Qinglong to directly block his perception.

What's that, nervous... Hua Li Xiao was weird, and he didn't know what was hidden and didn't tell him.

"Yo! Isn't that a sharp cliff? that 'freak'? ha..."

Not far away, the laughter of several teenagers attracted the attention of the two here.

Hua Lixiao heard the word "Li Ya", turned his head to look, and saw a dissolute and unruly teenager, all of whom seemed to be unlearned.

"Shhhh One of the teenagers said that he was so loud that it could be heard by the entire intersection.

"Hmph, the slut of bat life, fucking too, actually had a relationship with a bat man, and he deserves to be spurned for so many years!"

"Not only that, I heard that, it's because of this that the number of batmen in Blood Bat Town is getting more and more, it's really unlucky!"

······

The scolding was endless, and Hua Lixiao was a little annoyed when he heard it.

He also has a mother, and in his heart, his mother is the most important person, so much so that he feels this way.

Li Ya's face was a little terrifying, as if he was about to explode, Hua Lixiao didn't stop him, he even had the idea of wanting to make a big deal out of it, in his heart, it doesn't matter how he insults a person, but it must not involve a person's mother, it is a sacred role, and it is absolutely not allowed to be trampled on by any means!

On the contrary, Li Ya's face returned to its original state after a period of gloom, and pulled the corner of Hua Lixiao's clothes with his hand, "Let's go." “

"Why?" asked Hua Lixiao, puzzled, "They insulted your mother and son like that—"

"The best thing to do is not to quarrel with them, not to mention..." There was a bottomless sadness in Li Ya's expression-

"After so many years, I'm used to it. “

Li Ya took the first step and walked towards the place where there was no one in full view of everyone.

······

"After so many years, I'm used to it. “

This sentence, in Hua Lixiao's mind, has been up and down for a long time.

Li Ya paused, and looked back at Hua Lixiao.

"Cut. Hua Lixiao's head was slightly lowered, and the black broken hair completely covered his forehead, and he spat on the ground with disdain.

"If you give up even this kind of thing... So... We can't be friends. Hua Li Xiao said lightly.

Li Ya's expression was complicated, and he didn't make any movements.

······

"Sen—"

A palm-sized ice rat suddenly appeared in front of the neck of the young man who was the leader, slowly levitating, and the cold air emitted made people's hearts palpitate.

Under the noses of everyone, it is just suspended there, and most people don't even know where it came from!

Faintly, there was a silk thread so thin that it was almost invisible, connecting Bingling, and the other end was tied to one of Hua Lixiao's hands.

At this moment, he was facing the group of teenagers, and the cold glint in his eyes was not angry and arrogant.

"Today, let me show you the consequences of insulting the word mother!"

······
