Chapter 46: Friends
After an unknown amount of time, maybe a few minutes, or centuries, the high dive stuck the Twilight Blade into the cave wall, hanging there weakly, trying to save his strength.
A face as pale as a ghost, with fangs bared, appeared at the entrance of the cave above, and hesitantly looked at the humanoid object hanging below that was covered in yellow mud and couldn't see its face: "Gao Qian, are you still alive?"
"Li Si, hurry, hurry up and find a way to pull me up!" Gao Qian was surprised and delighted, "Why are you still here, I thought you all quit the Infernal Realm, great, hurry up and find a rope, the ladder is whatever, hurry up, I can't hold on." ”
The vampire disappeared for a few seconds, and Gao Qian thought he had gone to find a tool. Unexpectedly, his face appeared at the entrance of the cave again, and he looked at him fixedly with scarlet eyes: "If I pull you up, I will save your life, right?"
Gao Qian's yellow mud-covered face showed an incredible expression, and he stared at Li Si above the top of the pit: "You're not, right? If I say no, what will you do?"
"Then ......," the vampire grinned cautiously, looking like he was worried about hurting himself with his fangs, "I'll have to pull you up too." He jumped down, two bat wings stretching out behind him, obscuring almost all the light in the pit.
The armor on his claws had been retracted, and now he looked like a pair of leaner hands. He grabbed the high diver's shoulders with both hands and flew up cautiously.
Gao Qian has to admit at this moment that sometimes it is really practical to have a pair of wings, even if it is broken and full of holes, even if it is ugly, it is not as good as canvas.
The vampire had just flown to the entrance of the cave and fell.
Gao Qian slammed into the ground, and he was so exhausted that he didn't even want to move. The vampire fell next to him, sweating profusely, as if he had been fished out of the water.
"Get up, you have to get out of here. High Diver heard the vampire gasp. He waved his hand: "I don't have the strength, you can go by yourself, let me lie down again." ”
"Get up, you can't lie down here. The vampire tugged hard at the high dive's arm.
"Didi" Gao Qian felt as if he heard the impatient honking of the car, and he sat up sharply, looking around blankly.
He was lying in the middle of the road, the fountain of the central roundabout rattling behind him, cars passing by and the drivers rolling their eyes at him as if he were a drunkard who knew no restraint.
"Hurry up, get out of here. The vampire tugged at him again. High Diving stands up and discovers that the vampire has shed its cloaked and reverted to its human form.
"We're out?" Gao Qian looked at the intact fountain in confusion, and then at the terrible muddy yellow soup on his body.
"What happens in the Infernal Realm will affect the human realm, the fountain has been destroyed in the Infernal Realm, and it won't be long before the ground subsides here. It's just a matter of time. ”
"Should we issue a warning or something, in case someone gets hurt from it......" The two stumbled back onto the sidewalk.
Li Si smiled elegantly: "You can do whatever you want, as long as you don't involve me." But I advise you to think about how to explain it to people first, and you will know in advance that there will be a subsidence here. Be careful not to be caught as a madman who deliberately destroys public facilities in an attempt to attract public attention. ”
Gao Qian was silent for a long time: "Did I say that you don't have fangs, and your smile is particularly ugly?"
Li Si bared his neat white teeth, laughed again, and patted Gao Qian's shoulder: "Let's go, friend, go back to the bar to find you a change of clothes first, and then you have to bother me to send you home." ”
"No need, I can take a taxi back by myself. ”
"Do you have a taxi willing to take you like this?"
"Are you trying to say you saved my life again?"
"It's stingy, I deliberately stayed to find you. ”
"Thank you so much. ”
"Thank you, don't worry, just remember to owe me a favor. ”
"Well, I remember when someone came to my house and begged me, they didn't say that. ”
"Hey, hey, I'm getting older, so my memory isn't very good, did I say anything today?"
"Li Si, didn't you go to school?"
"Nonsense, I was also a showman in the Daoguang period back then!"
"Xiucai, then your husband must have forgotten to teach you how to write the word "shame". ”
“......”
Late at night on the street, two strange-looking men were arguing as they walked in the direction of the night bar. One looked pale, not much different from a ghost, and the other looked like a clay figurine, so covered with yellow mud that only the eyes and mouth were still exposed.
Fortunately, it's late at night, and the passing cars are also hurrying by, otherwise I don't know what kind of bizarre urban legends will be born from it.
At this moment, Gao Qian suddenly felt something kicked under his feet and almost tripped over.
He looked down and saw that it was a black puppy, biting his trouser legs and lying at his feet.
"Where did the puppy come from?" Gao Qian was worried that he had kicked the puppy just now, so he hurriedly picked it up and checked it.
At this glance, I couldn't help but be surprised.
The puppy was only a few months old, dry and poor, and he had been hungry for some time, and almost all that was left was his bones. What is frightening is that there is a bloody wound on the stomach of such a weak puppy, as if it was stabbed by some sharp weapon.
The puppy lay on the hand of the high diver, motionless, just looking at the high diver with his black pupils. Maybe it doesn't have the strength to pray, maybe it's already used all its energy when it bites on the leg of the high-diving pants, which is its last hope of survival.
A puppy abandoned and abused by its owner, a wave of anger surged in Gao Qian's heart: "The person who did this is too inhuman." ”
I don't know if it's a high-diving illusion, he thinks the puppy's thin head nodded approvingly.
"There's a pet clinic nearby, but it's definitely closed now. Li Si looked at the puppy closely, "It's so badly injured, eighty percent won't survive." ”
The puppy stared at Li Si coldly and rested his head on Gao Qian's arm.
Gao Qian shook his head slightly: "Since you have seen it, you can't ignore it, let's go to your bar first, bandage it briefly, and then send it to the hospital tomorrow." Whether it can survive or not depends on its creation. ”
Li Si shrugged noncommittally: "You can do it, anyway, I hate dogs, just don't let me keep it." ”
