015 Confused Truth
"Stop!"
He stood stiff, his face furious, his eyes full of pain. Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info "Once I let these continue, then I will let myself kill you?" This emotion is stronger than you think. Don't you understand what I've become and what I'm going to do? β
She stood there quietly watching him, her chin slightly raised. This seemed to infuriate him.
"Haven't you seen enough yet? Or am I going to show you more? Can you paint a picture of what I might be doing to you? He strode across the cold fence and unloaded a long iron bar, as thick as Li Qing's arm. With an easy movement, he broke them in half, like a matchstick.
"Your bones." He said.
Walking through the corridor, he tore the walls with his fingernails.
"Your skin."
Then he moved towards Li Qing at a supernatural speed, and he stood there, grabbing her shoulders before she could understand what was happening. He was afraid to see her face, and then, with a ferocious hiss, the hairs on the back of her neck stood on end, and he pulled her neck to his lips.
It was a horrified countenance, white teeth baring out, lips tugging at an incredible length, each tooth sharp and sharp. It was a carnivore's teeth, a demonized representation.
"Have you changed your mind?" He said in a distorted voice.
Li Moliu landed neatly through the crowd until he came to the edge of the gymnasium. Some of the freshmen stood by the door of the boys' lounge, and he ordered them to disperse, and then he slammed the door open and entered.
He looked around quickly, shouting, and then saw the man dressed in black standing on the white brick floor.
"Qingyang! What happened? In a terrifying moment, Li Moliu thought that he wanted to look down on a dead man's face again, but when he came to Mu Qingyang's side, he found that he had not moved.
"Hey, are you alright, Qingyang?"
"Yes."
"Qingyang, you have to get out of here quickly. Can you hear them? Tripan accuses you, and they're chasing you. β
Mu Qingyang turned to the stadium and seemed to be listening. But there was no expression on his face. "Chasing me? Why? β
"Everyone. It doesn't matter. All you have to do is get out of here before they find you. As Mu Qingyang continued to stare, he added. Here is another attack, this time it is Mr. Suva. He's dead, Mu Qingyang, and they think you did it. β
Now, at least, he saw irritability, fear, and a frustration in Mu Qingyang's eyes, an attitude that was more terrifying than anything he had seen tonight. He held Mu Qingyang's shoulders tightly.
"Leave...... Yes. Mu Qingyang said. The confusion had receded from his face, and there was a burning streak in his words. "I'll ...... Left. β
"Mu Qingyang ......"
"Okay." These red eyes were dark and hot, and Li Moliu found that he couldn't look away. "She's safe, isn't she? Very good. Take care of her, please. β
"Mu Qingyang, what are you talking about? I know you're innocent and this will all settle down......"
"Just take good care of her."
Li Moliu stepped back, still looking at the green eyes, and then, slowly, he nodded.
"Of course I will." He said quickly. Then he watched Mu Qingyang leave......
Li Qing stood surrounded by adults and police officers, waiting for an opportunity to escape. She knew that Li Moliu had already told Mu Qingyang in timeβhis face told her, but he couldn't get close enough to her to talk to her.
"Mu Qingyang has already left." He said, his eyes clenched. "But he told me to take care of you, and I want you to stay here."
"Take care of me?" Panic and speculation overwhelmed Li Qing. Then, almost in a whisper, she said, "I know." She thought for a moment and then said carefully, "I need to be quiet, wait here, and I'll be back shortly." β
He sighed, but she had already walked away. Passing through the locker room, she didn't stop, and kept walking, through the doorway, and into the dark campus. Then walk into the night.
Idiot! Mu Qingyang thought, grabbed the sculpture on the side of the road and threw it out, and threw it up.
Stupidity! Blind, hateful stupidity. How could he be so stupid?
Are they together? As one of them? He must have been crazy to think it was possible. Well, it looks barbaric, and those poor aliens are terrified of everything that is really unknown. What else could you expect? He felt weak, dizzy, confused, and then darkness enveloped him. He felt helpless when he heard Matt say that another Adept had been attacked.
Is someone deliberately targeting him, how can you expect to explain to them, Mu Qingyang, as a killer?
The blood in his eyes was so bright that Mu Qingyang stopped for a moment, and then turned back. His surroundings were filled with boiling black clouds, filling the buildings and land next to him with darkness. There was so much sorrow in his eyes. The eyes that burned like red flames were now dark, hollow, and hopeless.
Li Qing stood to the side dumbfounded, it was the first time she had seen such eyes, these eyes were hateful mixed with sorrow, and there was an unbelievable pain.
"Mu Qingyang." She whispered, feeling the sorrow seep into her soul, and now awakened an instinctive pity and fear. So lonely, so intolerable, so lonely......
"Qingyang." She whispered.
The cold, lost eyes didn't answer. "Come here." He said quietly, and went back to the car with her.
She moved slowly, dazzled and sat in the car. Then she looked up at him, her gloomy eyes on his. "Tell me." That's what she said.
He smiled, without humor, and then looked at her: "What do you need to know?"
As he spoke, he lifted one foot up on the steering wheel, almost in a challenging manner towards the venue.
"You think I'm going to do it?"
"You're strong." She said, her eyes fixed on his hand. Her gaze gradually rose, as if she remembered everything that had happened in the past. "And you're emotionally unstable right now."
"Perhaps, but my sanity hasn't been lost yet."
Staring out the window into the pitch black, with the occasional blue light streaked across the sky, he began to justify.
He said nonchalantly, carefully choosing his words. He tells her about his thoughts, his desire to be a reliable man, and his experiences in the Demon Abyss World and the changes in his body. He told her about his pain, and of course his uneasiness, that someone was watching him.
He tried to tell Li Qing this, looking for those words. All that followed that night was all happiness, even the next morning, when he woke up she was gone, the ultimate joy.
Blood burned under his skin, and every word he thought of gave him courage. She didn't reply to his complaints, she just chose a better way to express her position.
The next day, Mu Qingyang came to Li Qing's apartment, and Li Moliu was also there.
"I think I can feel it...... It's the child who has been transformed, Xu Tao, you should still have an image, right? β
"I think I've seen him." Li Qing said. Then, in a more powerful voice, she said, "Qingyang, he came to see me, and he cursed himself. He wants to kill you. But then he asked about the Messier? β
"He joined a liberal organization that robbed and plundered ruthlessly and mercenarily, and he and they roamed the country, confronting and sucking the blood of their victims." Li Moliu's face was expressionless, and he got the news from the investigation team.
"He's stronger than he was before because he drank human blood. There is a lot of power in human blood. When they are killed, somehow the power is magnified, as if the fear and struggle in the last moments have strengthened the soul. Because Xu Tao has been killing humans, he has more power than us. β
"What...... Strength? Li Qing asked. An idea struck her.
"Strength, that's what you said, and speed. A sharp sense of awareness, especially at night. These are basic. We are ...... the same Thoughts can be felt. We can feel their presence, and some of their thoughts. We can make sense of those thoughts. They are usually enclosed. There are also some times. With enough blood, we can change our form and become animals. And the more people you kill, the stronger your strength becomes. β
"Yes, Xu Tao is around us, he is a lot stronger. Maybe he still has his own group, and he will be there at any time. If he had the chance, he would have killed me...... I believe, so I need time to find him. I haven't seen him since that time. In this way, the threat is always the same, and the enemy is always getting stronger. This Xu Tao is a very strong creature in the dark world, and he seems to be proud of being on the edge of darkness. Mu Qingyang shook his head, and then said in a low voice.
"But it's also my world. It's just as dark here for me. I think I can get over these, but I was wrong. That's why I'm here, to this eleventh arrondissement. I imagined that if I was embedded in a small town, away from those old memories, I might be able to stay away from the darkness. On the contrary, the situation is even worse. β
"Nope." Li Qing said fiercely. "I don't believe that, Mu Qingyang."
His words made her creepy and sympathetic...... Again, there is fear. She admits those, but her antipathy is gone, and now she is sure of only one thing.
Mu Qingyang is by no means a murderer.
"What are you going to do, Qingyang?"
"I ...... I don't have a plan yet. He said.
"I used some force that I shouldn't have used to find him, and then I felt dizzy, and that power overcame me, just like before." He raised his head to look directly at her and Li Moliu.
"I don't know."
He said roughly.
"I'm very angry right now, maybe like Tripan said, I'm in danger."
"But you didn't attack any of them." Li Qing said that she wanted to reassure him. The thought was almost a certainty in her mind.
"Does it make a difference? I've been using critters to solve that desire to kill? β
"Xu Tao is the key." Li Moliu said.
Mu Qingyang curled up in the chair, and she saw his shoulders tense again.
"It's a good idea. I hope there is some other explanation first. It's also likely something else, some character like the Demon Lord Los or the Six Paths. β
"Nope." Li Moliu said.
"You don't understand. I'm not testifying that Xu Tao is the murderer, I'm interested in Xu Tao's state, he is a demon, and he is already a demonized person. We can study him and use it to solve your problems. β
"It must have been him that night." Li Qing said, taking a deep breath. "I've seen him, maybe I know where he's going to be."
As quick and succinct as she could, she told him what had happened that night, and what had happened before in the vicinity of Todd Hill Church. She told Mu Qingyang everything.
"Also, Mu Qingyang, I think Xu Tao may be there at the venue tonight."
As she spoke, she took Mu Qingyang to the back garden, Li Moliu didn't follow, he set aside his own space for the two of them, and he had his own work to do.
"Someone passed me that day. He was wearing a black robe and a hood, and I didn't see his face. But the way he moves is familiar. That should be him, Mu Qingyang. Xu Tao will definitely go back to the Messier, and as far as I know, she will be going to Mr. Suva's memorial service today. β
"Vivi and Tripan, he's manipulating everything." Mu Qingyang's face was tense, as if he was worried about something.
"He's not strong enough to hurt you. Qingyang, who knows what will happen after that man shows up tonight? Isn't attacking you after you have been besieged the easiest thing for Xu Tao in this world? It's possible that he's spying on you, maybe he's ...... somehow"
"Like a crow staring at a dead man." Mu Qingyang muttered.
"A crow. And for the Messier...... Mu Qingyang, what might your physique be able to do for her? And why can't Xu Tao do anything to you directly? When you show up, he will leave in a hurry? β
"That's right, he's avoiding me, he's not strong enough to fight me." Mu Qingyang's tone was a little excited. "That's why he's always been in the shadows, carefully calculating plans every step of the way."
"He just wanted it to happen. He wants you to doubt yourself and think you're hopeless, but that's not true, Qingyang. You know now that you have nothing to fear. She stood up, feeling happy and relaxed. After the ugly side of the night is over, the rest will be beautiful.
"That's why you're alienating me, is it?" She said, reaching out to him. "Because you're afraid of what you might do. There's nothing to worry about. β
"Don't you need it?" His breathing began to rapidize again, and he looked at what appeared to be two snakes in her outstretched hand.
"Do you think there's no reason to be scared anymore? Xu Tao may attack these people, but he doesn't control my mind. You don't know what I've thought of you. β
Li Qing kept her voice calm. "You don't want to hurt me." She said categorically.
"Don't want to? There have been so many times when I have looked at you in public, and I can barely touch you. When I want to cut your throat...... His eyes were fixed on her neck, and the way he looked at her reminded Li Qing of Xu Tao's eyes, and she felt her heart begin to beat faster.
"I think I'd do. You told me what it was like to be together, Qingyang. I want you to muster courage, I'm not saying I want you to be miserable. But none of those things happened that we could still share, could we? I know. She said slowly, even more slowly. I love you, Qingyang. I want to be with you. (To be continued.) )
