Chapter 443: The Book of Despair
When that man saw a first-order demon, he naturally didn't have to think about it, and he was about to slip away. His frog-like figure leaped up to the nearby tall buildings, but Lu Su's speed was faster, he grabbed the man in the air, pressed down on him, and the two fell from the sky together, the huge impact caused the ground to crack, and the surrounding cars sounded the alarm together, and the silent street was filled with a cacophony of noise.
The man was smashed and dizzy, he opened his mouth, threw out his long tongue, and hit Lu Suyou in the face like a whip. While Lu Su dodged backwards, the man jumped up from the ground, thinking that he couldn't win if he ran, so he simply fought hard.
With a flick of his head, the long snake-like tongue wrapped around Lu Su, and with a sticky sound effect, it wrapped around Lu Su firmly.
"That's just the case with the First Order! How are you going to counteract my tongue. The man said with a smile, his voice still unclear, of course.
But then he found out that Lu Su was entangled in front of his face with his hands, he grabbed the long tongue with his backhand, jumped backwards, and then pulled it violently, the tongue was actually pulled to the limit, and the man was dragged over like a kite and slammed on the ground.
When the little star in front of him dissipated, he saw Lu Su holding a broken street lamp pole in his hand, and he hurriedly shouted: "Don't, don't!" ”
The pole of the street, which looked like a fork, actually pierced his tongue and pierced deeply into the ground at the same time, and the man let out a cry of pain. His tongue was pinned to the ground and could not be retracted, and he lay on the ground in a strange position.
"It's over."
Lu Su walked over, took out the gun behind him and pointed it at his face, and after firing a few shots, the man's head turned into a bloody honeycomb, and he lay there and died.
As a result, the long-tongued man was dropped, Lu Su looked around, the car's alarm woke up the residents around, and many households upstairs turned on the lights and stared down with surprised eyes. The man's corpse dragged such a long tongue, and the scene was like a tongue-pulling hell city version, and tomorrow the demon slayer will have to take the trouble to seal it again.
Lu Su picked up Long Kui from the ground, patted the ashes on his body, and said kindly: "You dead boy, why did you run out so late, you met a bad guy." ”
"Whew." Long Kui buried his face in Lu Su's chest and didn't say a word.
"Wait a minute!" Lu Su put him down, "I'll go and pick up the corpse, go back and ask your Aunt Worm to make you roasted tongue to eat." ”
"It's disgusting, I don't want it."
The corpse of the long-tongued man was very troublesome, so he could only wrap all his long tongue diagonally around himself, like a worker's master who was about to change cables.
He copied a tablecloth to wrap the corpse, carried it on his shoulder, and then took Long Kui's hand and walked home...... As for the sleepless residents upstairs, whocase!
Long Kui pulled Lu Su's warm hand, didn't speak for a long time, and when he was about to get home, he said hesitantly: "That...... I came out to see a man. ”
"If you don't want to say it, you don't have to say it...... In fact, I also have a secret to hide, everyone has their own secret. ”
"I ...... I want to tell you. ”
"Huh?"
"I saw that guy was my dad."
"Your dad?"
He ...... He's not actually my father, he's my master. ”
"Oh!" Lu Su wasn't too surprised, he had already guessed it when he saw the charm on his body during the day.
Long Kui lowered his head and kicked the pebble: "Dad wants to be the best demon refiner in this world, but he needs a lot of money, so ......"
"That's why you're stealing money?"
"Yes! If I don't do it, I'll be punished by my father. Although he treats me badly, I know that he is not a bad person, he just wants to complete his career too much......"...,
This master is a person who is obsessed with alchemy and has become crazy. Lu Su thought to himself.
"Also, there are some things that Dad has to let me do! He has a book, and every page of that book is read, it will reduce the life span by one year, and humans can't read it, so he asked me to learn that language and read it to him......" Long Kui raised his head, "Dad said, this book was left by a person named Lu Xincheng. ”
"Lu Xincheng?" Lu Su muttered this name, remembering it in his mind, he vaguely felt that this was a big character, "By the way, how many pages are there in this book?" ”
"Two thousand pages!"
"What?" Lu Su said in surprise, "Then how many pages have you read?" ”
"Five...... Five hundred! ”
Demons are not undead creatures, and their average lifespan is a thousand years, but the more demons they devour, the slower the aging process...... Long Kui's demon spirit is only a dozen, isn't he reading that book with his own life! This master is simply using him like a tool.
Thinking of this, Lu Su couldn't help but squeeze Long Kui's hand tightly: "Long Kui, how old are you now." ”
"Nine years old! What's wrong? ”
"Nothing."
Does a child of this age have to endure this?
The two were silent for a long time, and Lu Su said, "Can I meet your father if I have a chance?" ”
Long Kui suddenly broke away from his hand and took a step back, he looked at Lu Su with a fear in his eyes: "You...... You're going to kill him? ”
"You don't want him dead?"
"No, never!"
"Don't worry, I'm not going to kill him, I just want to talk to him." The sincerity in Lu Su's eyes made Long Kui feel a little more at ease.
He regards his master as his father, and he seems to be too unfamiliar with this world, so he puts the only support in his heart on this master, as if he were a relative. If he killed the person who used him, it would undoubtedly be the best way to get rid of Long Kui, in fact, Lu Su had also thought about it just now...... But in that case, what will become of Long Kui's heart?
Compared with this unfortunate child, Insect Ting, who has a warm family, is so lucky to meet her uncle's Jinduan. There are many demons in this world, but they are all born in the world with human hands, and when they meet so many demons with twisted personalities, in the final analysis, they are created by masters with twisted personalities.
But this world is not black and white, many problems cannot be solved by killing, how to get Long Kui to get rid of that master, it seems to take a lot of brains.
Lu Su said: "Long Kui, the New Year will be in a few days, you promise me not to run around these days." ”
Long Kui nodded obediently.
"I'll take you to the supermarket tomorrow and buy you a lot of delicious food, okay."
He nodded again.
When she returned home, Jin Duan was waiting for them in her pajamas, and when she saw the blood stains on Lu Su's body, she said, "Ah, where have you been, have you fought?" ”
"The kids slipped out to play and ran into bad guys." Lu Su said with a smile as he threw the dead body on his shoulder to the ground.
"You, you!" Jin Duan rewarded Long Kui with a burst of chestnuts, and he covered his head as if he was about to cry.
"Don't blame him, I've educated him all along the way."
"I'm really worried about it!" Jin Duan uncovered the cloth wrapped in the corpse, saw the "cable worker" inside, and said in surprise, "Who is this?" ”
"Libo!"
"Who's Libo?"
"How do I know, I don't even know this guy's name and demon skills, so I'll just call him Libo. By the way......" Lu Su said to Long Kui, "you must devour this demon corpse." ”
Long Kui frowned: "I don't want it, it's disgusting!" ”
"You have to eat it, or I won't take you to buy snacks tomorrow."
Long Kui's eyebrows furrowed even more.
"He doesn't seem to like devouring! Or roast this corpse tomorrow and sprinkle some cumin and chopped green onions. ”…,
"How can a child be so willful." Jin Duan crossed his waist and said, "I don't like to eat corpses either, but what can I do to become stronger?" But this corpse is disgusting, how can the tongue be so long. ”
"It's okay if you don't make hot pot. Forget it, let's talk about it tomorrow, I'll take him to bed. Lu Su stroked Long Kui's head and said, the three people under the light seemed to be discussing how to eat the corpse of a family of three, full of warmth.
……
The light in Xia Yingying's house was suddenly turned on, and she suddenly screamed when she walked into the living room barefoot, but she didn't turn around and run away, because two butterflies composed of thunder and lightning fell on her shoulders silently, and she knew that if she moved, she would be blown into slag by the terrifying demon skill of this "Butterfly Heavenly Fire".
Sitting on the sofa was a man dressed as a scholar, with a hint of obedience on his delicate face, this person was Liu Mengyuan, whom she was once familiar with...... There was another man standing next to him, a teenager, apparently Liu Mengyuan's new henchman.
"You...... You're not dead! It took a long time for her to say this.
Liu Mengyuan played with the dilapidated kaleidoscope in his hand, and his voice was as penetrating as ice water: "You wish I was dead, right, it's a pity, I crawled back from hell." ”
Liu Mengyuan, who was provoked by her more than a hundred years ago, and then was stabbed by the enemy, actually picked up a life! It's unbelievable.
Liu Mengyuan squinted his eyes and looked at her who had become Lori: "You who betrayed me back then, took advantage of the enemy, and actually turned yourself into this, you were the Oiran of the book back then, and now you are just a dog hiding and licking wounds." (Shuyu, a brothel in the late Qing Dynasty)
Xia Yingying couldn't speak, not because she had nothing to say, but because she was deeply afraid of this person.
"What about him?" Liu Mengyuan tapped the kaleidoscope in his hand, and of course he was referring to the person who made this humble kaleidoscope...... Hatred!
"Dead! He was killed just a few months ago, and I saw his body swallowed with my own eyes. ”
"It's a pity, I still want to enjoy a good revenge." Liu Mengyuan sneered, threw away the kaleidoscope like garbage, stood up and walked towards Xia Yingying, who was shocked by his aura and kept retreating.
"You're afraid of me!"
"Are you here to take revenge on me?" Xia Yingying plucked up her courage and said, "For so many years, I have disguised myself as an ordinary little girl and lived a simple life, I have tasted all the ups and downs, but this kind of life is really beautiful and simple...... I don't have anything to be nostalgic about, so please kill me if you want to. ”
"You're thinking too well." Liu Mengyuan grabbed her neck and lifted it, threw it on the ground reflexively, looked down at her on the ground and said coldly, "Follow me to Changbai Mountain to find a knife, I can still use you before you die!" ”
