Chapter 10: Monsters
Pei Chu sat up again, the scenery in front of him changed from blurry to gradually clear, and what entered the field of vision was a narrow and cramped wooden house, and an oil lamp was lit on a round table, illuminating the things in the whole room.
He was lying on a wooden bed in a short coat, snoring in his ears, and everything felt strange and familiar.
Looking at the familiar things around him, a memory of himself seemed to be slowly waking up, and Pei Chu gradually determined where he was at this moment.
He entered the dream again, now in the first dream.
The awakening of this kind of memory is wonderful, he also remembers himself in this world when he is awake in the real world, but that memory has the feeling of being separated by a layer, and it will be naturally replaced in the dream.
He is now a laborer from the distant Bactria Empire, earning a living here in the Federal Ports.
With this perception that began to blur the real and the unreal, he felt what seemed to be a dull drunken swelling pain in his head.
"It's weird to get drunk in a dream and get a headache?!"
Pei Chu slowly stood up, feeling a little lightheadedness in his body, and his heart was still quite wonderful.
Although he has not yet tried to conceive a "beacon" that distinguishes between reality and dreams like the scene in the Inception movie, he still feels that he can distinguish clearly.
"Think of it as a very real large-scale online game!" Pei Chu muttered silently in his heart, he used to discuss with his classmates when virtual online games would be born, but now it seems that there should be nothing more real than this.
Glancing around, on the wooden bed not far away, Fang Yunhu was lying on his back, naked, screaming to the sky, and sleeping sweetly.
He can naturally remember the memories in the first dream before getting drunk, he and Fang Yunhu in order to thank Liu Sixi for saving him at the dock today, the two uncles and nephews specially invited him to come to the house to finish eating.
"Hey, where's that Liu Sixi?"
Pei Chu looked left and right, and didn't seem to see the shadow of Liu Sixi, which was a little strange. got up and glanced at the door outside the wooden house again, the door was open, it seemed that Liu Sixi had left by himself after sobering up.
At night, the sea breeze is heavy, and the night breeze blowing into the shanty still carries a little salty coolness.
Pei Chu moved slightly, and after feeling that he didn't feel too dizzy, he got up and prepared to close the door.
Although there is nothing of value in this shanty cabin, the security environment is not good after all, and if the room is opened, there is no guarantee that someone will sneak in. The goods wandering the streets in the black skin and the white dog, but they can do anything.
As soon as he walked to the door, suddenly Pei Chu saw a dark figure standing outside the door, and he was suddenly shocked, and the person was startled.
"Brother Pei, it's me!"
The person outside the door turned around, his voice was very low, Pei Chu's eyes widened, and then a little oil lamp in the room, and at this time, he completely saw that it was no one else standing outside the door, it was Liu Sixi who he thought had left.
It's just that Liu Sixi's expression at this time does not have the shy appearance of submissiveness in the daytime, but there is a kind of fierceness that Pei Chu can't say between his eyebrows.
"Brother Liu, you are ......"
Pei Chu asked with some confusion, and saw Liu Sixi frowning slightly, as if he was facing a great enemy, "Something is wrong over there." ”
"Something is wrong?"
Pei Chu glanced out of the door a little strangely, the shanty town outside should have been pitch black, but at some point, a few miles away, a fire lit up, and there was a faint noise and shouting.
"Gone out of the water?"
Pei Chu saw the lit fire and shouting, and asked subconsciously.
Most of the houses in the shantytown are wooden buildings, and Pei Chu has heard Fang Yunhu occasionally mention that there have been several fires that have burned down a lot of places.
"Shh
Suddenly, Pei Chu saw Liu Sixi make a silent movement, his whole body lowered slightly, and he hid by the door, as if he was blending into the surrounding environment, and his eyes were shining out of the door, like a leopard waiting for its prey.
"Roaring ......"
Soon, in the narrow alley outside the wooden house, a low roar suddenly came.
A rhythmic sound of fast footsteps sounded quickly outside the door, Pei Chu stared at the outside of the wooden house with wide eyes, and suddenly saw a black shadow burst out of the dark night.
The black shadow's movements were extremely fast, and almost the moment it appeared, it seemed that he saw Pei Chu standing by the door of the wooden house, and rushed towards his position without the slightest stop.
In an instant, Pei Chu's hair stood on end, and a strong sense of crisis surged in his heart.
I don't know if I have experienced several scenes of being attacked and killed by headless generals in the second layer of the dream world, although Pei Chu was frightened by the movements of the black shadow, his body still instinctively flashed to the side.
An arm full of sharp nails and like iron claws happened to appear where Pei Chu had just stood, the arm was black and thick, and the big cyan tendons were wrapped around it like hemp rope.
Anyone who sees such a hand can imagine the power he has, and if it is aimed at someone, it will almost end up in the chest and stomach under one blow.
In this flash of dodge, Pei Chu also noticed from the corner of his eyes that something suddenly attacked him.
It was a human-like monster on all fours, with a weirdly twisted body, with very developed muscles on its body, and a huge sarcoma bulging high on its neck and abdomen.
The inhuman monster had a slick head, a strange pattern on its head and face, a large mouth that drooled, and scarlet eyes full of ferocity.
The monster's strong and sharp fingers flicked slightly in the air, and it seemed that it was a little surprised that it didn't catch Pei Chu.
But soon it reacted, the slick head on the sarcoma suddenly turned, and its mouth growled loudly, and it suddenly propped its limbs on the ground and pounced on Pei Chu again.
This time, the movement was faster than Fang Cai, and the sharp claws were opened, as if they were about to grasp Pei Chu in the next moment.
Bang!
Suddenly, a muffled sound sounded.
Just as the monster's limbs were off the ground, ready to launch a second attack on Pei Chu, a figure suddenly rushed out from the side and hit the sarcoma of the neck of the inhuman monster in a circle.
The monster let out a cry of pain, and almost instantaneously flew backwards towards the door next to it.
Liu Sixi's figure flickered, and the moment the monster was knocked out, the whole person didn't stop for a moment, and rushed out together.
Liu Sixi looked at his figure but average, but when he moved, he exhaled and opened his voice, and his momentum was majestic, and he did not dodge the monster at all, but instead fought hard, and between his fists and feet, he was full of a sense of power.
The monster is extremely fast and powerful, and every time he waves his arm, there is a sound of breaking the air, and the swelling of sarcomas all over his body has a strange beauty of power.
But no matter how the monster acted, it was never able to hurt Liu Sixi, and every time the muscle power collided, Liu Sixi's heavy punches and feet were beaten back and forth.
The popping sound of punches and kicks sounded one after another, if it weren't for the thick sarcoma covered in many places on this monster's body, I am afraid that it would not be able to withstand Liu Sixi's punches and kicks at all.
Pei Chu, who was in the wooden house, had already stood up, looking at Liu Sixi outside who was fighting with the monster that suddenly broke into the wooden house, rubbing his eyes and almost not believing it.
"Martial arts master?!"
Pei Chu muttered a little, a young man of his age has seen many martial arts action movies, and he once imagined that he could have such power.
But as he got older and the Internet developed, he gradually knew that many things were just staying in film and television dramas and novels, and there was any online news about martial arts and fakes, which made him understand that there may be martial arts in real society, but it is really different from what is shown in the movie.
But at this moment, it subverted his imagination a little.
The monster covered with sarcoma looked much stronger than ordinary people, and its strength could be seen by breaking stakes and sundries with his hands, but even so, the other party never managed to get a little bargain in Liu Sixi's hands, but was pressed and beaten by Liu Sixi from beginning to end.
