Section 9 Blood Food

That's Xiao Wu.

He stood there, staggering, his clothes in tatters, as if he had just picked up waste from a garbage heap. Patches of blood were all over his body, and his pale gray cotton trousers were charred black. Liu Tianming was standing at least thirty meters away from there. But even so, Liu Tianming still saw Xiao Wu's eyes clearly.

It was a pair of dark yellow eyes. Liu Tianming wasn't sure if he saw Xiao Wu's pupils, but he was sure that he saw a striking vertical line in each of the other party's eye sockets. Under Xiao Wu's eyelids, a thin film appeared that could never belong to a human being, and quickly closed from the left and right sides towards the middle. They glide on the surface of the eyeball, like a cataract patient with advanced disease.

Liu Tianming was shocked by this.

Under normal circumstances, it is absolutely impossible for one's own vision to see so clearly at this distance. You know, he has more than 400 degrees of myopia and wears contact lenses.

"Han mongrel chicken thief, stand up at Lao Tzu!"

Suddenly, a thick local dialect roar came from the side. A man in his forties pounced on a shovel from another horizontal passage. The chicken coop more than two meters high blocked the man's view, and he couldn't see Liu Tianming, who was more than five meters away from him, but Liu Tianming could see the other party through the gap in the cage.

The expression on Xiao Wu's face was a little confused, and his pale skin did not have the slightest blood in the moonlight. Suddenly, he raised his right hand and pressed it down to his throat, as if he had choked. This action lasted less than two seconds, and Xiao Wu regained his body balance almost instantly, and at an angle and speed that Liu Tianming found incredible, he crashed towards the man who was swinging a shovel and rushing towards him.

The man was very burly, and the shovel fell from the air with a terrifying whistling sound, and accurately hit Xiao Wu's left shoulder. A quarter of the knife-like metal cut sank into the skin, and blood splattered everywhere. The entire shoulder blade was severed from it, and the snow-white bone was suddenly exposed to the air. With such a serious injury, anyone would fall to the ground on the spot, screaming incessantly. Xiao Wu was unconscious, just his body shook to the left with the angle of the shovel falling, but his right arm waved in the same direction, reaching out and grabbing the hair of the man who had rushed in front of him.

The hair wasn't too long, but it was enough for Xiao Wu's outstretched fingers to grasp tightly. The man let go of the shovel and threw away the shovel, covering his head with both hands, and while letting out a scream that was not like a human voice, he turned his body in the direction of the power of Xiao Wu's arm.

"Let it go! Let it go! ”

"I don't want those chickens, you go, go!"

β€œβ€¦β€¦ Please, let me go. Help me! Help me! ”

From threatening to pleading, the man lasted less than five seconds. Liu Tianming felt that the man's scalp had loosened a little, perhaps because his hair had been torn off alive, or it could be his own visual error. He immediately saw Xiao Wu grab the back of the man's neck, pull the whole person in front of him, open his mouth, and bite down the throat of the frightened man.

"Wu Jian, don't do this!"

didn't have time to think at all, Liu Tianming threw away the shovel in his hand, his body was short, he pounced as fast as he could, and punched Xiao Wu on the cheeks on the side. The distance is too close, the man and Xiao Wu are entangled, and in this case, using a shovel as a weapon is likely to injure the other party by mistake. The best way is to use your fists.

Xiao Wu's teeth had bitten through the skin on the man's throat, and a trace of blood flowed down the edge of his lips. Liu Tianming's movements were very timely, and Xiao Wu had not yet bitten off the flesh from the man's neck, and his head was smashed crooked by this powerful force. His jaw was instantly dislocated and wide open like a snake. The right hand was also completely released, and the man was already fainted by the pain, and fell to the ground softly.

"You...... Food ......"

Xiao Wu's body swayed, and his mouth emitted vague syllables of unknown meaning. At such a close distance, Liu Tianming finally saw the vertical line in his eyes.

Those were two vertical pupils. Just like a snake or a crocodile, it's definitely not the round pupils that humans should have.

Xiao Wu stared at Liu Tianming's face, as if there was something strange on that face. The shovel stuck on his shoulder couldn't be removed, causing Xiao Wu to lose his balance and could only stand there reluctantly.

Liu Tianming rushed over again. He quickly walked behind Xiao Wu, and neatly clamped Xiao Wu's neck with the crook of his left arm. Even he didn't understand why he had so much strength, and he could feel Xiao Wu's throat swallowing slowly under his arm. At this moment, the mysterious voice that had disappeared in his mind reappeared, and Liu Tianming opened his mouth to bite Xiao Wu's side neck without thinking. Suddenly, the tip of the tongue filled with thick blood.

It's blood, fresh blood.

Liu Tianming gulped down these liquids that did not belong to him. He didn't feel dirty at all, and he didn't have the cleanliness of a doctor. He was completely guided by the mysterious voice in the depths of his brain.

It's it that tells itself that the food is here.

It is not the tens of thousands of live chickens in the chicken farm, nor the man who fell to the ground and was dying, but Xiao Wu.

He's my food.

Liu Tianming's arm continued to exert force, and Xiao Wu's throat made a crisp cracking sound. The entire head is tilted sideways at an eerie angle of ninety degrees. The spine was visible in the middle of the skin and muscles that were bitten by Liu Tianming's teeth...... Liu Tianming didn't feel anything about all this, he only knew that his mouth was full of unprecedented sweetness and softness. It's a wonderful taste that surpasses the best candy in the world, the most delicious meat.

In the distance, the screams of live chickens in cages can be heard. They were also shocked by the bloody and brutal scene, or perhaps irritated by the smell of blood that permeated the air. The chickens grew louder and louder, but no one responded in the chicken farm.

After a long time, Liu Tianming finally woke up from the chaos and madness. What came into view was the corpse of Xiao Wu, whose head was completely shattered and his neck was broken from the middle, beyond recognition. His skin was an eerie white, as if all the blood on his body had been sucked dry.

Liu Tianming felt that his adrenaline secretion was accelerating, and he could burst his body at any time. The expression on his face was as if he had seen a ghost. He knew what he had done, but he didn't know what to do now. Standing still and hesitating for a moment, Liu Tianming swallowed a large mouthful of saliva hard, turned around as fast as he could, and ran wildly in the direction of the exit of the chicken farm.

……

The extremely fast running speed surprised even Liu Tianming himself. He swore he had never run this fast. Or rather, he had no idea he could run so fast.

The sound of the wind whistling in my ears and a slight tingling sensation on my face was the reaction of nerve endings to the impact of a huge wind on my skin. A similar feeling Liu Tianming only had when he was sitting in a friend's car. At that time, the windows were wide open, and the speed was more than 60 kilometers per hour.

This is definitely not the running speed that a normal person should have!

The dark night covered everything.

He was running just too fast. The pedestrians on the street were sparse, and even if a few people occasionally passed by Liu Tianming, they could only feel a powerful air current, but they couldn't see his appearance and figure clearly.

Liu Tianming didn't know how long he had been running. He felt like his lungs were about to explode, filled with a lot of carbon dioxide, but unable to get out of his body. The blood, the heart, the whole body are crying out for oxygen. Staggering and slowing down, he began to gasp for breath, his crazy brain finally regained a little bit of sanity under the cold night wind.

There was a car parked on the side of the road, and through the rearview mirror outside the car window, Liu Tianming saw his face from a distanceβ€”β€”β€”β€” with a large paleness in the iron blue, and an abnormal blood color was rapidly rising from both sides of his neck, quickly fading on the surface of his cheeks, and quickly occupying those parts that were as white as a dead man.

Fortunately, Xiao Wu's blood was not splashed on himself.

The surrounding buildings and scenery are familiar. Liu Tianming felt very surprised, and unconsciously, he ran back to his residence.

Yes, about fifty meters in front of you, is the entrance to the complex.

This is probably the instinctive reaction of human beings when they are afraid. In most people's minds, home is the safest place.

A middle-aged man in a black security uniform sits in a sentry box. Liu Tianming hesitated for a moment, bypassed the horizontal vehicle isolation pole, and walked towards the entrance of the trail next to it, which was a little far away from the position of the sentry box.

"Xiao Liu, why are you only getting off work now?"

Liu Tianming, a smiling middle-aged security guard, knew him. His name is Zhang Zhiqiang.

Nowadays, doctors seem to have a habit of treating minor illnesses as serious ones. Even for illnesses such as colds, patients are required to hang bottles and take antibiotics. If you go to the hospital casually, you can't get down at all for five or six hundred yuan. After knowing that Liu Tianming was a student of medical school, Zhang Zhiqiang just had the mentality of trying it out, but he didn't expect that according to what Liu Tianming said, he went to the pharmacy for more than a dozen yuan to buy medicine and came back, and after eating it, he actually got better.

Zhang Zhiqiang is a veteran and is in good health. Liu Tianming knew very well that the prescription he told Zhang Zhiqiang was actually only playing an auxiliary role. After all, as long as you drink plenty of water, pay more attention to rest, and add your own physical strength, you will usually be cured in about a week. For medicines, of course, it is to eat less if you can, and not to eat if you can.

Liu Tianming also said something similar to Zhang Zhiqiang. Zhang Zhiqiang thinks this is a sign of Liu Tianming's modesty. After coming and going, the relationship between the two people became familiar.

"I was resting today and feeling bored, so I went out to find a friend and took a walk by the way." Liu Tianming barely kept a smile, said hello, and walked quickly in front of the sentry box.

Zhang Zhiqiang bought some peanuts and haggis today, as well as a small bottle of "Yanglin Fat Wine". It was very boring to stay alone in the sentry box, he planned to make today's duty work more interesting, and wanted to stop Liu Tianming to drink with him. So, smiling politely, nodding slightly, and was about to invite the other party over, he heard a dazzling light from outside the crossbar at the entrance of the community. Immediately, there was a shrill and high-pitched car horn.

It was a silver-white Audi Q7 SUV. Through the half-open window, a woman with a cold expression can be seen in the driver's seat. She pressed the car horn impatiently, her eyes full of pride and disdain.
