Chapter 6: The Hunter (I)
Lu Yi stabbed open the gate with the key he got from Uncle Wang, and the four of them walked into the yard together, this yard is only a dozen square meters, and there are a few small trees and some flowers and plants planted in it, which is very crowded, and the cement floor is also scattered with several layers of thick fallen leaves, as if no one has ever cleaned them, and a layer of black humus has accumulated under the fallen leaves.
"It's safe to get a straight line from the courtyard gate to the inside, so don't go near those flowers and plants. Lu Yi reminded.
Yuan Han asked, "What's the matter?"
"I'll demonstrate it again. Lu Yi picked up a withered yellow fallen leaf and threw it into a pot of flowers and plants like a flying knife, the fallen leaf had not yet flown a meter away, and a touch of depression came, and the fallen leaf was cut into two petals in the air.
Lu Yi flicked off the dust on his fingers and said, "See, my hand was almost cut off when I was a child." ”
Yuan Han closed his mouth and followed Lu Yi into the house.
The inside of the house is really the same as Lu Yi said, it is more dilapidated than the outside, the area is much larger than it seems, but it is very messy, clothes and garbage are thrown everywhere, all the furniture, except for the TV, looks like antiques from the last century, and they are covered with a thin layer of floating ash, it seems that it has been uninhabited for a while.
"This guy really threw me at the Silver Cross Academy, and I didn't know where to run. Lu Yi threw his backpack on the ground and checked the water and electricity, but fortunately, the water and electricity were not cut off, and people could still live after cleaning up.
"Your living environment is really bad. Yuan Han walked in, wiped the dust on the sofa and said.
Yuan Xuan had already taken off his coat, rolled up his sleeves and said, "Don't be idle there, clean up." ”
"It's going to be cleaned up until it's a head. Yuan Han kicked the dusty coffee table and said, "Anyway, you can't see his uncle, so let's just find a hotel tonight and leave directly." ”
"Even if we stay for one night, Lu Yi and Qing'er will have to stay for more than ten days before they go to the United States. Yuan Xuan said, asked Lu Yi for a rag and began to wipe the furniture.
"Okay, the eldest woman is not staying, and she hasn't married yet, and her elbow is so far. Yuan Han smiled, picked up a piece of clothing and said, "Lu Yi!
"Don't do it, pack it all and throw it away!" Lu Yi thought that anyway, the uncle was not short of money, and he didn't bother to wash so many clothes, so he just threw them all away.
"Gotcha!"
The four of them began to clean up the house, although the house did not look big, but because it was too dirty, it still took a long time, and it was not until sunset that the West Mountain was almost cleaned up, Rao is monster Yuan Han and Yuan Xuan were also tired and paralyzed, but Lu Qing was at ease and never tired, and when the three of them were resting, Lu Qing also took the initiative to run to the kitchen to cook.
"Qing'er, remember to dig a few more times, there are all kinds of frozen meat under the refrigerator, you soak it in warm water to thaw it and then fry it, don't eat it if the things in the upper layer of the refrigerator are broken, if you think the seasoning is not clean, take it from the closet, there are unopened ...... in it" Lu Yi sat on the sofa, a little worried that Lu Qing was alone, so he commanded remotely.
Yuan Han lay directly on the big sofa and said, "How long has your meat been frozen?
"Of course I can eat it, less than half a year, before I went to the Silver Cross Academy, I slaughtered it with my own hands and put it in. ”
"What do you mean by slaughtering with your own hands, you used to be a butcher?"
"What is a butcher, I slaughtered it from the mountain with my own hands, and it is all game. Lu Yi drank boiled water and said: "Our territory, surrounded by mountains, is basically not very developed, there are many wild animals on the mountain, and the meat that my uncle and I eat is basically hunting from the mountains." ”
"Yo, this life is pretty good, it's emotional. Yuan Han praised.
"Is there a mood?" Lu Yi smiled, it did sound emotional, but you must know that he was not even seven years old when he did this, and he had not killed a monster yet.
A little boy of more than six years old, with a knife, went into the mountains and luckily stabbed a wild boar to death, and then because he couldn't even drag half of the wild boar's legs, he could only cut off four pig's trotters and bring them back.
Lu Qing's dinner also took more than two hours to finish, mainly because the meat took too long to thaw, and the meat pieces were too big, Lu Qing held a kitchen knife in both hands and chopped for a long time before cutting off a few small pieces.
The vegetables in the refrigerator have long been rotten, so this table is all meat, but this is also very much in line with everyone's appetite, after a long day's work, high-fat and high-calorie food is the most needed at this time.
After feasting, the bright moon had already risen, of course, it was a mess of cups and plates, Yuan Xuan asked Lu Qing to rest for a while to clean up by himself, but Lu Qing insisted on coming alone and forcibly pushed Yuan Xuan out of the kitchen.
"Qing'er is such a good boy. Yuan Xuan looked at the kitchen worriedly and said, "I feel a little tired and unbearable to do so many things, I don't know how she survived." ”
Lu Yi shook his head and was silent, he understood Lu Qing very well, and knew what she had experienced, it would be false to say that she was not tired, she had more endurance than Yuan Xuan and Yuan Han, if you don't exercise this kind of thing, then the gap between you and the people who have exercised is very big.
Lu Qing definitely didn't deliberately exercise by herself, when she couldn't even eat enough before, where would she pay attention to these things, then there was only one situation left: Lu Qing's previous life made her have to do these things that far exceeded the physical load in many cases, and over time she formed this kind of endurance that even Yuan Han and Yuan Xuan were surprised by.
This kind of thing, Lu Yi has also experienced it, and he has experienced it more than once, in order to survive when he was chased by monsters, he could only keep running, his vision was blurred, his legs were unconscious, and his stomach was constantly tumbling, and he had to continue to run. Later, I gradually discovered that my physical fitness has been greatly improved in chasing and being hunted down again and again.
Therefore, four months ago, when Wang Wu took the people of the School Management Committee to intercept and kill in the trail, he was able to hold Yuan Xuan, and he could still maintain a clear consciousness after being shot so much, and even roughly calculate the upper limit of his body's functions, which were all forced out under specific circumstances.
Lu Qing can do so much work with her small body, and she has obviously experienced similar things, which makes Lu Yi very relieved and distressed.
Lu Yi stood up, walked to the second floor, came to his former room, and took out a box from under the bed, which contained some of his most intimate and beloved things.
He opened the box, and the most conspicuous thing in it was a long knife, and Lu Yi picked up the knife that had accompanied him for many years.
This is a very simple knife, the black scabbard and the handle do not have any decorations, slowly pull out the steel knife, the friction sound between the blade and the scabbard is low and pleasant, the blade is dark and frosty, the cold front is at first glance, it seems that you can still smell a faint smell of rust, of course, it is not because the knife is rusty, but the smell of blood from this blood-soaked steel knife.
I don't know how many monsters have died under this knife over the years, Lu Yi counted them at first, but then he couldn't count them, so he gave up; every time he killed the demons, he would carefully wipe the blood stains on the steel knife little by little, but no matter how many times he wiped it, every time this steel knife came out of the sheath, the light smell of blood still lingered.
Lu Yi flipped through the box again, and picked up a small bottle from it, this bottle was white, about the size of two palms, the neck was slender and narrow, and under the illumination of the room light, it glowed with a warm light, so exquisite;
After taking out these two things, Lu Yi put the box back again, in his opinion, only these two things were enough.
Lu Yi took these two things and walked downstairs, Yuan Xuan and Yuan Han were very strange when they saw him, Yuan Han asked, "Why are you holding a knife? There is such a good guy who didn't take it out earlier, Qing'er just chopped meat and had a hard time." ”
"There are small tails. Lu Yi took off his heavy windbreaker and said.
"En?!" Brother and sister Yuan Han sat up straight at the same time, immediately understood what was happening, and asked, "When did you find out?"
"Uncle has a formation within a hundred meters of this villa, and I just discovered it. Lu Yi said, changing into a black dress and said.
"Can you determine how many people?" Yuan Xuan was a little worried.
"I don't know, but be careful. Lu Yi gently opened the curtains, glanced outside and said, "It's already surrounded here, it's not easy to do." ”
Yuan Xuan lowered his voice and said, "Isn't this villa protected by a formation, it's not easy for them to get in, right?"
"Come in? These shady guys are still far from getting in. Lu Yi pulled the curtain back and said, "But since they have all come, it's not good to let them go home empty-handed." ”
Yuan Xuan's face changed and he rushed forward quickly, grabbed Lu Yi's sleeve and said, "Don't mess around." ”
Lu Yi smiled and said, "Don't worry, I am very experienced in night operations." ”
"No, it's too risky, as long as we are in the house, they can't help us, why go out?" Yuan Xuan pulled him and didn't let go.
"Because I want to know who is targeting me, and if I miss this opportunity, I will probably never be able to take the initiative again. Lu Yi held Yuan Xuan and comforted: "Don't worry, I said that I used to kill monsters, these little thieves can't help me, I promise, come back as soon as there is any abnormality, okay?"
Yuan Xuan listened to his words, slowly let go of his hand, Lu Yi smiled and kissed her on the forehead, and said to Yuan Han: "You come here." ”
Yuan Han stepped forward and said, "What are you doing?"
"By this window, grab their attention, do anything, and I'll quietly jump off the second floor later. ”
"I'm not going to do it, what if there's a gun outside that crashes me?"
"Don't worry, their target is me, they won't startle the snake, and the old man Lin Xiaotong lives in the county seat, it won't take long to get here, they don't dare to shoot. ”
"Okay!" Yuan Han gritted his teeth and said, "The master believes you once." ”
"Then I thank you. Lu Yi walked up to the second floor, glanced back at the kitchen, and whispered: "Don't tell Qing'er about this for the time being, she said that I went out to buy something." ”
