168 The night is over
"It's getting dawn. Li Yu said to Qiu Tong.
"This plane is about to be destroyed, and I can't see a sunrise a few times. Qiu Tong replied to Li Yu.
He will go out of the east, and he will be tied to Fusang according to my threshold. Fu Yu Ma Xi drove peacefully, and the night was bright.
The demon stretched out a mist-wrapped hand and held it towards Lu Xu's head. At this moment, a morning light shone through the window and into the cold room, and in an instant, it was like a sharp blade cutting through the heavy shroud, and it struck a pure white hole in the demon's extremely black aura.
The demon roared, as if unwilling and angry, and its huge claws slammed down, about to crush Lu Xu's head. However, the demon failed, and its claws turned into a phantom the moment it touched Lu Xu, and it only passed through Lu Xu's body calmly, and could no longer cause the slightest damage.
Not only the huge claws, but also the demon itself, along with the black mist that had been enveloping it, gradually became transparent and uncertain, as if it would disappear at any time.
"The night of blood eating is over. Xu Tao didn't know when he woke up. I saw him stand up, walk out of the shadows in the corner, go straight through the increasingly thin form of the demon, pick up his sword, and continued: "Your hands can no longer hold anything in this world, go back to your own world." If you can, hope not to see you again. β
The demon stretched out a finger that was almost the same color as the air, pointed at the tip of Xu Tao's nose, and smashed a human sentence directly into his heart, "No, we will see you again." After saying this, the huge demon instantly turned into a blank space and disappeared in place, as if it had never appeared.
Xu Tao took a deep breath, took the sword back into the scabbard, and then squatted down to observe Lu Xu's situation, only to find that he had just woken up not long ago, but it was Lu Xu's turn to faint under the double overdraft of physical strength and mental strength.
Have you ever dreamed about a nightmare from which you are trapped in fear and despair, but you can't escape it. What's more, you know clearly that it is a dream, but no matter how much you struggle, you can't wake up...... If you think it's a dream, I think it's an obstacle, a demon, a barb in people's hearts.
Lu Xu felt that he was back in that dark and narrow room, there was no light, no wind, only boundless darkness. He had never dared to cower in a corner of the room, for he heard something moving in the darkness of the roomβa pale rotting child!
Don't! I don't want to stay here! Let me out!
Lu Xu's courage suddenly gave birth to somewhere, and he pounced on the position where he thought it was the door, groped in a panic, and sure enough, he touched the doorknob, and pushed it without hesitation, and the huge door fell to the ground with his push. A strong light came through the open door, and Lu Xu could finally see the whole room, but after just a glance, he fell to his knees and let out a wail that was not like a human voice.
It was a pale and rotten child, chained to a rusty water pipe, stretching out his thin little hands like a bird's claws, crying silently, begging him for help!
With a "snap", Lu Xu was awakened by a slap.
"If you want to sleep, sleep well! What the hell is howling!" Xu Tao rode on Lu Xu, grabbed his collar, and scolded menacingly.
Lu Xu didn't know if he was stupid by the young man's slap, or if he was still stuck in the aftermath of the nightmare, he didn't come back to his senses for a long time, he just looked at Xu Tao blankly, and said for a long time, "I'm still alive." After some recollection, he remembered that he had desperately swung his sword at the demon, but he didn't even hurt the demon's skin.
"Yes, you are indeed alive. Xu Tao put down Lu Xu's collar, walked to the fire not far away, and then began to roast a poultry object skewered on a branch, while saying lightly: "In the morning, I searched for useful materials nearby, and the fresh food after the power outage is not easy to preserve, but fortunately, the New Year is approaching, basically every household has bacon, preserved chicken, sausage and other things, so we don't have to worry about diet for the time being." β
Looking at the young man's extremely calm posture of barbecuing there, Lu Xu froze, and felt that something was wrong in a trance, and after three seconds, he suddenly realized, and looked at the young man with a look like seeing a ghost, and said quietly: "How did you come up with the idea of roasting meat in the oldest building in the world?" There was a hint of blame in his tone.
The young man glanced at him, and still said lightly, "Can you choose not to eat it?"
β......β
After overdrawing his mental and physical strength all night, if he is not hungry until now, he will be a superman! Lu Xu looked at the golden roasted chicken in Xu Tao's hand and swallowed his saliva, and said, "I didn't say I wouldn't eat it...... I just think...... Here ......" At the end of the sentence, only the trembling of his lips could be seen, but there was no sound at all.
"If you want to eat, don't talk nonsense!" Xu Tao unceremoniously tore off one of his legs, and then handed the rest to Lu Xu. 88
Lu Xu was naturally not polite, and took the chicken to bite.
Seeing Lu Xu's slightly embarrassed eating, the corners of the young man's mouth hooked up a smile, and then he skewered a large piece of bacon and put it on the fire to roast it carefully.
The subsequent eating process of the two was lackluster, so I omitted it.
After the two of them had eaten the barbecue and drank some hot water, Xu Tao's watch was pointing to eleven o'clock in the morning. Then, the two looked at each other and fell silent, as if each was thinking about something.
So after another moment, Xu Tao finally spoke: "I know you have a lot of questions to ask now. Just ask, and I'll tell you everything I know. β
Lu Xu rubbed his slightly messy hair, pursed a wry smile, and said, "Originally, there were still a lot of questions to ask last night, but now I don't know where to start." β
Xu Tao frowned, rubbed his temples with his fingertips, and said, "Just ask, you have to hurry after asking, you have to find a safe place to hide before dark." β
As soon as the young man finished speaking, Lu Xu immediately thought of the full moon-like eyes that were peeking at the two of them through the window, and his whole body trembled, and he hurriedly said, "Well, the first question, what happened to this city?"
Xu Tao leaned against the wall, changed to a more comfortable position, and said, "Do you remember that heavy snow? β
Lu Xu nodded.
"It's not just our city!" Xu Tao recalled the scenery of that night, only to feel that blood was dripping from his memory, but he still said lightly: "Almost all the people who were contaminated with those snow water became demons, with red eyes, and their six relatives did not recognize them, and began to slaughter all the people they saw who were not contaminated with snow water. β
"Almost?" Lu Xu grabbed a key word, and then thought that he had also come into contact with that kind of red snow, but there was no abnormality.
"Yes, 'almost'. There is one kind of person who will not be affected by that snowflake, like me and like you. Xu Tao nodded, turned his gaze to the sword in his hand, and continued calmly: "At first, there were people who hid in the room, not touching the snowflakes, thinking that they would not be affected, but as time passed, the snowflakes seeped into the water source and evaporated into the air...... Now, anyone who can still be rational is a person who will not be affected by that snowflake. β
"What about the people in this city, even if they all turn into red-eyed demons, there must be millions, where have they all gone?" Lu Xu muttered.
"Second question?" The pale and frail young man's eyes were also blank, and he said, "I don't know." If I had to explain, all I could tell you was that the red-eyed ones evaporated overnight, and from the night the red-eyed disappeared, legendary demons, beasts, and evil spirits descended on the city, hunting down the last remaining humans at nightfall. Fortunately, creatures like these demons will return to nothingness when they come into contact with the sun, so there are still a few dozen people left in the city. β
After Xu Tao's words were finished, he saw Lu Xu leaning against the wall and stunned, although his expression was still calm, but there was a color of despair in his eyes.
"Is this hopeless?" asked Xu Tao with contempt.
"Why did this happen?" Lu Xu muttered in a trembling voice: "I'm just an ordinary person, I just want to work peacefully, save a little money to go back to my hometown to buy a house, and marry an ordinary woman to live an ordinary life...... Why? Why is this happening?"
Listening to Lu Xu's self-talk, Xu Tao's heart became inexplicably irritable, so he walked over and grabbed his hair, raised his head, and put the sword against Lu Xu's throat, scolding: "What are you doing in JJYY! If you are really desperate, you boldly stretch your neck forward, and there will be no trouble when you go down with a sword!
The cold blade was close to the skin of the fatal place, and the touch was like a lightning bolt that instantly spread throughout the body, Lu Xu looked at Xu Tao, the pale young man's eyes were full of tears at the moment, and he said angrily, "How lucky you are compared to those who have died!
"I'm sorry. Lu Xu didn't dare to look at Xu Tao's pure and persistent eyes anymore, lowered his gaze and said an apology lightly.
Xu Tao let go of Lu Xu's hair dejectedly, took a few steps back, and then turned his back and said, "It should be me who says I'm sorry." I'm sorry I ignored your feelings. β
Qiu Tong looked at the two people with a look of disgust from a distance, and said, "I finally understand why this plane was destroyed. β
