Chapter 3: Encountering Soul Beasts

Qi Gao dragged his sore and numb body and walked on the playground depressed.

While moaning in a low voice, he muttered, "That stinky woman, it's too much." Isn't it necessary to do this just by touching my chest? ”

Qi Gao walked all the way and found that many people were looking at him with strange eyes. Although I feel very unhappy, but this is also something that cannot be helped, no matter who is beaten by a beautiful woman in public, it will attract attention.

Although he was beaten, his goal was achieved, and he already knew where Bai Lianxin was.

It's just that now Qi Gao is hesitating whether to go to Bai Lianxin. I was just beaten up, and it was quite a serious kind, so I would definitely be asked about it when I went to see Bai Lianxin.

If you lie, say that you were beaten by others, it is too embarrassing. But if you tell the truth, you will definitely be retaliated against by Liu Qian in the future. Now it's just touching my chest, and I feel that I won't dare to see her in the future, if I offend her again, isn't it looking for death?

After some thought, Qi Gao decided not to go to Bai Lianxin today. And according to Liu Qian, Bai Lianxin has recently become obsessed with painting, and painting requires relatively quiet conditions, so it's better not to disturb her.

"Hey!" At this time, Nan Kaifu walked over, with a gloating expression, he should have seen what happened just now, "Another good show!" ”

"Get out of the way." Qi Gao didn't want to entangle with Nan Kaifu at this time.

"Don't be so angry, let's talk about it, how did you offend Sister Liu Qian this time?"

"It's none of your business."

"Hey, let me guess." Nan Kaifu showed a lewd smile, "Could it be, did you hit your chest?" ”

"How, how...... That's what it's like, it doesn't feel good."

"Cut, with your guts, you dare to be my surname." Nan Kaifu was very disdainful of Qi Gao's answer.

Listening to Nan Kaifu's answer, Qi Gao breathed a sigh of relief. If he tried to defend himself, he might arouse Nan Kaifu's suspicions, but if he admitted it in a ridiculous tone, he wouldn't be believed.

"How's it hurting?"

"I don't know, but it hurts, you can help me take a look."

As he spoke, Qi Gao lifted his shirt.

"Wow! It's really miserable! ”

Nan Kaifu gloated while poking his fingers at Qi Gao's body, and Qi Gao spat cold air in pain.

Qi Gao hurriedly slapped Nan Kaifu's hand away and asked, "How is it?" Is it serious? ”

"It will hurt for about ten days and half a month, so it's best to go to the infirmary and get medicine and wine to wipe it."

"Infirmary!" Qi Gao frowned, "...... It costs money. ”

"Isn't it just a dozen or so yuan!"

"You give it to me if you have the ability."

"Get out, I'm looking for the girl who beat you!"

"......" Qi Gao looked back at Liu Qian, who was still sitting on a bench not far away, sighed, and said, "You think I don't want to, but now I am looking for death!" ”

If he was beaten by someone else and asked Liu Qian to borrow some money to go to the infirmary, it would definitely be fine, but the problem was that the person who beat him was Liu Qian, and Liu Qian was still angry. In the past, when I asked for money, I definitely beat it up first, and then decided whether to give it or not depending on my mood.

Nan Kaifu patted Qi Gao's shoulder sympathetically and said, "Then I can't help it, let's go home and make plans." ”

"Home?" When he was beaten, it was nothing, but now it is slowly starting to hurt, and it is not ordinary pain to hold on until he goes home, suddenly, Qi Gao had a flash of inspiration and asked Nan Kaifu: "Didn't you fight often before?" You must have bought the bruising potion, right? ”

"What age is that? Do you think I'm still fighting now? …… However, when it comes to bruising medicine, someone in our class should have it. ”

"Who? I'm going to borrow it. ”

"I don't remember, you go and ask the guys who often fight."

Qi Gao glanced at the playground and quickly found the people who might have bruising medicine, they were playing basketball, Qi Gao was not familiar with those people, and was hesitating to ask.

"Just go back to the classroom and rummage through the drawers, it's physical education class, there is no one in the classroom, and this is the last class, no one will go back to the classroom after class." Seeing Qi Gao's distress, Nan Kaifu suggested.

"That's right."

He didn't steal things, even if he was discovered, what did it matter, and didn't he still have Nankai rich? With Nan Kaifu's relationship with them, all you need to say is it.

Sometimes Qi Gao is still very envious of Nankaifu, he can be described as black and white at school, and his popularity is excellent, if he is not lazy, being a class leader is definitely not a problem. Like him, there are only a few friends, and they can be counted on one hand.

And when he chased Bai Lianxin, he also mustered up his courage under the encouragement of Nan Kaifu. Otherwise, Bai Lianxin was protected by Liu Qian by his side, and he would never even dare to talk to him alone.

"I'm so lucky to have you as my friend!" Qi Gao sighed from the bottom of his heart.

"I think so too." Nan Kaifu replied sincerely.

Qi Gao returned to the classroom, and sure enough, there was no one in the classroom, so he rummaged through the drawers of the classmates who might have bruising medicine, and soon, he found it. Take off your shirt, endure the pain, and rub the potion.

Just finished wiping the potion, but the effect of the medicine had not yet worked, so Qi Gao returned to his seat, planning to rest first, and then go home after the effect of the medicine had worked and his body was not so painful.

Qi Gao closed his eyes, lay on the table, and fell asleep groggily.

I don't know how long it took, knowing that he heard a loud and piercing sound of "crunch-", Qi Gao suddenly woke up, looked around, and found no one.

"Strange, what was the sound just now? Next door? Is class over? ”

Qi Gao looked at the bell hanging on the wall in the class and said in surprise: "Damn! No way? It's six o'clock? Have I slept that long? Hurry home and cook, otherwise you will be scolded by your parents. ”

Qi Gao's parents both worked in factories in the city, and they came home late every day, and they were very tired when they came home, so Qi Gao was usually responsible for cooking dinner at home.

"Mom and Dad came home at seven o'clock, it's six o'clock now, half an hour to get home, if it's faster, it will take another half an hour to make a meal, the time is very urgent, you have to hurry."

Qi Gao hurriedly got up and rushed to the door. Because it was a physical education class, I didn't plan to go back to the classroom, so I had the money, keys, etc. on me, so I didn't need to take it, I just got up and left.

Because he was in too much of a hurry, Qi Gao accidentally hit the chair with his foot, and his body shook and he was almost about to fall, but fortunately, he grabbed the table in front of him with both hands in time so as not to fall to the ground.

"Whew-"

Qi Gao breathed a sigh of relief, fortunately he didn't fall, otherwise, the injuries on his body would have worsened.

Suddenly, a cool gust of wind swept over Qi Gao's head, and then a loud "boom-" came from behind him.

Qi Gao was startled by the sudden voice, and the hairs on his body stood on end. When I turned around, I saw a mess behind me, and what was even more terrifying was that one of the tables was shattered as if it had been hit by something heavy falling from a height.

"Bang-Bang-"

Before it stopped, something seemed to be moving on the broken table, touching the surrounding tables and chairs, causing the tables and chairs to shift one after another, rubbing against the ground and making a screeching sound.

Qi Gao took a few steps back, his legs trembling constantly, looking at the scene in front of him, not knowing what to do.

The cool wind, the broken table, the invisible thing, Qi Gao could guess what it was, or rather, it couldn't be anything other than that.

The culprit behind all this is the soul beast.

The soul beast was coming at him, that's for sure, if it wasn't for his luck just now, he happened to dodge the attack of the soul beast, otherwise, it would not be the table but his body that was broken now.

Qi Gao didn't want to die, he wanted to escape, but he didn't know what to do, as long as he thought about the power of the soul beast he encountered last night, Qi Gao felt a chill. With a speed that surpasses that of a cheetah, it can easily whip up large trees and crash through walls, and if it touches it slightly, it will definitely kill or be injured.

And, the most important point is that now he can't see the soul beast at all, so how can he hide?

It's not that this soul beast has the ability to become invisible, but that ordinary people can't see soul beasts, and if you want to see soul beasts, you must turn on your soul vision.

Qi Gao stepped back and rubbed his eyes desperately.

"Ordinary people may not be able to open their soul vision once in their lifetime, but I remember Chen Mengyuan said that because the worshippers have soul power far beyond ordinary people, it is very simple to open the soul vision, as long as you concentrate a little."

Last night, with the help of Chen Mengyuan, Qi Gao barely opened his soul vision once, and he could see the soul beast, which was the first time Qi Gao opened his soul vision. And now, without anyone's help, it is not impossible to open up the soul and use Qi Gao's potential as a future worshipper, but it must be very concentrated.

But Qi Gao only encountered a soul beast for the second time, the first time he faced a soul beast alone, and his life was being threatened, so it was too late to be afraid, how could he be able to concentrate.

The soul beast rushed towards Qi Gao, and along the way, the tables and chairs were knocked away like a tide, and Qi Gao hurriedly jumped to the side.

"Boom—"

With a loud bang, the soul beast slammed into the wall, and Qi Gao felt a shaking around him, like an earthquake, and the white lime powder brushed on the wall fell down one after another.

"It's horrible! With this kind of force, it is estimated that even the wall can be knocked down if it is hit a few more times. ”

Qi Gao stepped back and looked vigilantly at the place where the monster was, and now, he could only judge the direction of the soul beast's movement based on the condition of the surrounding tables, chairs, and books, and take the opportunity to avoid the soul beast's attack. If you don't pay attention and take a step too late, your life will be gone.

At this time, Qi Gao saw a bottle of ink on the desk next to him. Qi Gao was overjoyed, picked up the ink, opened the lid, and threw it towards the place where the soul beast was.

"Hit!"

Qi Gao was overjoyed in his heart, and with the flow of ink, Qi Gao could finally see the general outline of the soul beast.

"It's a lot smaller than last night's,...... Oops, it's scales, that's it, is it a snake? ”

Due to the scales on this soul beast's body, the ink on the soul beast's body quickly flowed away, leaving only a faint trace.

At this time, Qi Gao's heart was filled with despair.

Qi Gao still remembered what Chen Mengyuan said about soul beasts last night, when soul beasts first appeared, they had no fixed form, they could be large or small, and they could change freely, this was the first form of soul beasts, called "eggs".

Then, when it absorbs about 100 people's soul power, it will chrysalis and become a second form, called "chrysalis". The "chrysalis" has a fixed form, and cannot change its shape at will, or even change its size, and it seems that it has a lot less ability than the "egg" in its first form. However, the power of the "chrysalis" is incomparable to that of the "egg", and it may also possess magical abilities.

Chen Mengyuan said that if it is an "egg", as long as the strength is stronger than it, it can be abused casually, but the "chrysalis" is different, and it is absolutely not to be taken lightly until it is clear what special abilities it has.

And unfortunately, last night, the soul beast that Qi Gao and Chen Mengyuan encountered was an "egg", and now this one is a "chrysalis" that has the form of a snake and has successfully transformed into a chrysalis.

The strength of this soul beast in front of him is several times more powerful than the one last night, even Chen Mengyuan has to be careful to deal with it, not to mention Qi Gao, who can't even turn on his soul vision now.

Although he knew that it was dangerous and the chances of successfully escaping and surviving were low, Qi Gao did not intend to give up. Moreover, although it is said that the "chrysalis" is much more powerful than the "egg", after some observation, Qi Gao feels that this soul beast is not as powerful as the one last night.

Because, last night's one hit the wall, and the wall cracked, and now this one, hit the wall, and it just dropped a little lime.

Could it be because the sun hasn't set yet?

Chen Mengyuan once said that soul beasts are nocturnal creatures, although he didn't say why, Qi Gao could guess it.

"Like a vampire, afraid of the sun?"

Now due to the sun, the power of this soul beast cannot be fully exerted, not even the one last night.

And last night, because it can change its form at will, it stretches out its tentacles to attack like a tentacle monster when it attacks, and the attack range and suddenness are much more powerful than the one in front of you.
