Chapter 35: The City
The stump was very large, and although Xiao Huai was a little boy of eight or nine years old, he was thinner than his peers, and it was more than enough to lie on the stump, and he lay quietly on the stump, and seemed to enjoy the feeling very much.
After a while, Xiao Huai moved, he first pulled up the sleeve of his left hand, and the thin white wrist was bare/exposed, and then stretched out a finger of his right hand and swiped lightly on his wrist.
A strange scene appeared, Xiao Huai's wrist was cut out of a wound that was not deep or shallow, and blood gushed out on the spot, falling on the stump drop by drop.
As the blood gushed out and was absorbed by the stump, the spiritual power on Xiao Huai's body merged into the tree along the blood, and at the same time, the spiritual power around the stump also spread faintly, enveloping Xiao Huai's whole body.
The temperament between the human and the stump is almost integrated, so even if it is obviously two species, leaning together like this, it gives people the illusion that Xiaohuai is also part of the tree.
Xiao Huai's face was calm, obviously this was not the first time he had done such a thing.
Yunjing was shocked by the scene in front of him, an eight- or nine-year-old boy who did not change his face and harmed himself, which was far more shocking than an adult doing such a thing.
The smell of blood, which was not too strong, gradually brewed, and Morpheus, who was lying on Yunjing's hand and poked his head to check the situation of Xiaohuai and the stump, was obviously a little impatient, his slender tail flicked and flicked, and his paws moved around a little restlessly, but unfortunately it was too small now, and he didn't even dare to go down to an ordinary bed, not to mention that the height from the fifth floor to the first floor was even more dangerous for humans.
After about ten minutes of dripping, the wound on his hand began to heal gradually, and the speed of blood flow slowed down, Xiao Huai checked the wound for a moment, and then scratched his finger in the same place, the wound was cut and deepened, and the blood was almost sprayed out of the blood vessels, gathering into a thin stream of water, and watered on the stump.
Xiao Huai seemed to be a little dissatisfied again, and wiped his hand on the wound again, and suddenly the wound became a little shallower again, and the blood turned into droplets and fell on the stump again.
Yunjing can see clearly this time, Xiao Huai's fingers are the appearance of human palms, and the moment he starts to cut the wound, the nails will suddenly grow very long, shaped like sharp leaves, quickly cutting the flesh on his hands.
When treating the wound, Xiao Huai controlled the aura around him, concentrated all the aura on his hand, and used the aura to speed up the healing of the wound.
Yun Jing remembered Mr. Bai Rizhou's words, saying that Xiao Huai's body had been suffering from blood loss and malnutrition all year round, but there was nothing wrong with the hospital examination, and there was no wound on his body, so this question was explained at this moment.
It's just a new question, why did Xiao Huai bleed to absorb the stump, how did he learn to manipulate spiritual power, and why did his fingers deform freely?
Yunjingtong guò spiritual power analysis, it can be seen that there is a special connection between Xiao Huai and the stump, but at this moment, Xiao Huai in the courtyard is a person or a tree?
At this moment, suddenly the lights on the second floor came on, a woman's coughing sounded, and then the lights in the bathroom also turned on, and it was obvious that Mrs. Zhou got up halfway through her sleep to go to the toilet.
Seeing this, Xiao Huai, who was lying on the stump, hurriedly used his spiritual power to completely wipe the wound on his hand away, and then he stood up from the stump and stretched out his arms.
Under the moonlight, Xiao Huai's hand gradually lengthened and thinned at a speed visible to the naked eye, and finally turned into two long locust branches.
The branches grew rapidly upward, reaching the third floor in less than two seconds, and the branches and leaves continued to bind around the window of Xiao Huai's bedroom, until they could firmly hang Xiao Huai's weight, and then stopped.
Xiao Huai stood still, the stump and the spiritual power in Xiao Huai's body converged together, and with a sudden turn, with a "whoosh", the branch that the arm had turned into contracted rapidly, and Xiao Huai was also easily hoisted up, flying towards the bedroom on the third floor.
While Xiao Huai was flying, Mrs. Zhou also came out of the toilet after flushing, but she was not in a hurry to go back to the room, but turned around and went up the stairs, obviously wanting to go upstairs to see Xiao Huai's sleep.
Xiao Huai also seemed to have expected this situation, so as soon as he saw someone going to the toilet, he immediately prepared to go back to the room.
If there is no accident, when Mrs. Zhou walks to the third floor, Xiao Huai has already returned to the room and lies down on the bed, and tonight will be as peaceful as ever.
But the unexpected happened......
Morpheus lying on the balcony stared at Xiao Huai, his greedy saliva was about to flow out, Xiao Huai was on the first floor, he was too far away and he couldn't do anything, at this moment he saw Xiao Huai gradually flying up, although the distance from the balcony on the fifth floor to the window on the third floor was still a few meters away, but Morpheus, who was glowing with green light, couldn't care so much, he cheered with a "whoosh", and jumped out of Yunjing's arms and rushed towards Xiao Huai in mid-air!
"Morpheus!" Yunjing was still immersed in the speculation of Xiao Huai's identity, but he didn't expect Morpheus to jump out like this, which scared him out on the spot.
And Xiao Huai, who was shrinking his arm and going upstairs, didn't expect something to fall from the sky, he was also startled, when he looked up and saw Morpheus jumping down in his position, Xiao Huai hurriedly shook his arm, wanting to avoid Morpheus's Tarzan press.
However, where was Morpheus willing to let him go like this, seeing that Xiao Huai dared to avoid it, Morpheus let out a childish roar in his throat, and the next moment, purple flames rose from Morpheus's body, and the momentum of the unicorn beast was fully displayed, Morpheus opened his mouth slightly, staring at Xiao Huai fiercely, the threat was obvious, if Xiao Huai didn't obediently eat him, he wouldn't mind using force to subdue him.
In order to avoid causing trouble to Yunjing, Morpheus tries to restrain the momentum around him, sleeps in Yunjing's pocket, and disguises himself as a children's toy, he has the ability to hide himself, and even those sect powers may not be able to see through Morpheus's true body, Xiaohuai didn't expect that there was such a terrible pervert hidden in the house!
At this moment, Morpheus suddenly transformed, and the crushing of the divine beast's momentum frightened Xiao Huai into weakness, the supply of spiritual power in his body was interrupted, his arms could no longer contract, and the whole person was hanging in mid-air, looking at Morpheus in horror.
Morpheus saw that Xiao Huai was frightened by himself, and was immediately very satisfied, stood on Xiao Huai's head, picked Xiao Huai's head with his paws, and began to find a place to speak.
"Morpheus, don't eat yet!" Yunjing saw that Morpheus was about to start eating, and hurriedly stopped.
"Huh?" Morpheus glanced at Yunjing in bewilderment, didn't Yunjing bring him here in the first place to find him something to eat?
Yunjing was suddenly anxious, and just wanted to turn around and go downstairs through the guò stairs, but at this moment, Mrs. Zhou also walked to the third floor, when she saw that the door of Xiao Huai's room was not only wide open, but even the window was open, but the indoor light was not turned on, Mrs. Zhou immediately realized that something was wrong, she did not hesitate, and quickly ran into Xiao Huai's room to turn on the light, Xiao Huai was not in the room, and the lush branches on the window attracted Mrs. Zhou's attention.
Mrs. Zhou walked to the window suspiciously, and when she saw Xiao Huai, whose hands turned into branches and fell in mid-air, and Morpheus, who was bathed in purple light, who stood on the door of Xiao Huai's head, Mrs. Zhou was stunned for two seconds, and the whole person took several steps back, holding on to the bed with trembling hands, and the whole person was almost unable to stand: "Old, husband...... What the hell...... Husband, husband!! Come on!!!! ”
Mrs. Zhou's voice resounded throughout the house, and now not only Mr. Zhou was awakened, but also the water on the fifth floor and Lao Zhao woke up from the bed suddenly.
Yun Jing saw that the matter had completely broken out, and it was important to stop Morpheus from eating Xiao Huai first, so he couldn't hide it anymore, so he simply controlled the aura to jump down from the fifth floor, and when he fell to the third floor, Yun Jing accurately buckled on the wall outside the window with one hand, and then turned around vigorously and fell in front of the window.
Ignoring Mrs. Zhou, who was not shocked, Yunjing stretched out his hand, pulled the branch, pulled Xiao Huai up, and then grabbed Morpheus and hugged him into his arms again.
After doing this qiē, Mr. Zhou, Shui and Lao Zhao also rushed to the third floor, when they saw the appearance of Xiao Huai in the room, Mr. Zhou and Lao Zhao were so frightened that they couldn't help but scream, Lao Zhao was purely shocked, and Mr. Zhou was the same as Mrs. Zhou, after the shock, there was disbelief, how could I not believe that my son would become like this!
After all, Shui has seen a lot of things, although he was also a little surprised, but he came back to his senses as soon as possible, took Lao Zhao and Mr. Zhou into the house, and helped the paralyzed Mrs. Zhou well, Shui looked up at Yunjing: "Xiaojing...... This ......"
Yunjing looked at Xiao Huai.
Xiao Huai has not said a word since he was rescued, Morpheus has reined in his momentum, and the spiritual power in Xiao Huai's body is also operating normally, but the matter has come to this, he knows that he can't escape tonight, so he is not in a hurry to change his arm back, so he simply let his hand keep the shape of a long branch, and then looked at Mr. Zhou and Mrs. Zhou indifferently.
Mr. Jin...... What's going on...... Our son...... He, how did he become like this......" Mr. Zhou gradually came back to his senses and asked for help for water as soon as possible.
Mrs. Zhou's gaze was still on Xiao Huai's body: "You are not Xiao Huai...... You're not my son...... My son is a normal person, you monster...... Yokai ......"
Yun Jing saw that Xiao Huai didn't speak, so he had to say: "Morpheus suddenly sensed something, took me to the balcony, I looked down from the fifth floor, and just saw Xiao Huai cut blood and fed the stump with blood, and then Mrs. Zhou got up to go to the toilet, Xiao Huai used himself to heal the wound, and then his hand turned into a branch, and he wanted to go directly back to the third floor from the first floor...... As a result, Morpheus intervened and stopped him, and it happened that Mrs. Zhou went upstairs at this time and saw the appearance of the two of them......"
The moment he heard that Xiao Huai had self-harmed and fed the locust tree with blood, the faces of everyone present changed, among which Mr. Zhou and Mrs. Zhou reacted the most, and Mr. Zhou said in disbelief: "You say...... He raises stumps with blood?! ”
"You youkai...... Did you occupy my son's body, and Xiaohuai was weak and sick since he was a child, but he couldn't check the problem! You say, how long have you been lurking in our house, what the hell have you done?! What about Xiaohuai, give me back my Xiaohuai!! Mrs. Zhou suddenly remembered something, and her feelings suddenly became excited, and she wanted to rush up and slap Xiao Huai twice, but was quickly stopped by Mr. Zhou.
Although her body was stopped by Mr. Zhou, Mrs. Zhou had completely lost her mind and kept trying to rush towards Xiao Huai: "You tree demon, our family has become like this in the past few years, are you harmed?!" Did you kill my eldest son?! Now you're going to harm my little son...... If we hadn't found out today, would you have continued to hide it, and what did you want to do by turning my little son into this?! You damn youkai!! ”
Facing the out-of-control Mrs. Zhou, Xiao Huai was still indifferent, indifferently watching her vent her feelings, and then slightly averted her gaze, faintly with a hint of mockery.
Seeing him like this, Mr. Zhou couldn't help but get angry, and looked at Shui Dao: "Mr. Jin...... This monster ......"
