Chapter 53: A Fool

He didn't act immediately, and still quietly led the strange man to the crooked neck tree.

The trunk of the crooked neck tree is about six feet wide, so even if two people stand on it, it will not look crowded, let alone worry about breaking.

Qiuqiu saw that the group had returned, opened his eyes wide, stared at the strange man for a while, and then frowned, and then climbed onto the body of the stranger.

Above the trunk of the tree, in the clay stove beside it, a strange fish was still roasted over a low fire.

"Let's eat," he said, casually pointing to the grilled fish.

The strange man stepped forward quickly, reached out and grabbed the grilled fish from the stove, but before he could reach his mouth, he threw the grilled fish on the trunk of the tree, and quickly shook his hand while panting.

Seeing this, he couldn't help but frown, and thought to himself, "Is he really stupid or pretending to be stupid?" Even babbling knows that freshly grilled fish will have to wait a while before he can catch and eat it, so he actually started directly? If he is pretending, is it necessary for him to pretend to be stupid like this? This seems to be a bit too pretending. ”

Although Xiao Lifang had only deduced that this strange man might have evil intentions, he still had some doubts and did not think clearly, and the most uncertain thing for him was whether he was a real person or a fiery red giant bird. If he really had bad intentions, he would have hoped that he had been made by the Flaming Red Giant Bird. Because, Xiao Li really didn't want a human he had finally met in the Demon Night Forest to actually want to harm him.

After careful observation, combined with various signs, he believed that the strange man in front of him should be a living person.

On the one hand, it is unlikely that the flaming giant bird will send the monster transformed by the demon yuan to the territory of the blood jade tiger, and it will not let the monster be contacted like this, because the giant bird will be more inclined to lure.

On the other hand, Xiao Li observed that there was a little less obvious difference between the strange man in front of him and the strange person he saw at the beginning, and now the strange man seemed to have longer hair and more shabby clothes, at least when he was chasing the strange man, he didn't see a fist-sized hole in his back.

This means that the figure that the flaming red giant bird once saw was the state of this strange man before, and his state at that time was better than now, which means that the strange man in front of him was indeed a real person, and the fiery red giant bird had seen him before.

However, he faintly didn't want to believe that the person who looked stupid in front of him would really want to harm him. The joy of meeting a human being at a rare time had dissipated.

"Perhaps, staying in the Demon Night Forest for a long time will affect a person's heart. He looked at the strange man with regret and consternation in his expression. Because, after seeing the strange man throw away the grilled fish, he picked up a fish that had not been grilled and ate it raw. It wasn't until he finished eating the raw fish that he picked up the grilled fish again and continued to eat it, as if he didn't know what was going on in his heart.

"Well, when he's done eating, let him go!" After hesitating for a while, he made a decision. Since this strange man is likely to look for an opportunity to attack him, it is natural that he cannot wait for him to go on the road with him. However, he didn't think about punishing this strange man who harbored ill will towards him. Because, in some environments, people will lose the right to choose, since there is no independent choice, then what is right or wrong? Now, in this demon night forest, it is a place where there is no choice!

He shook his head and turned to look at the strange man, a look of astonishment suddenly appeared on his cheeks.

I saw the strange man holding the half-eaten grilled fish in his arms, lying on the trunk of the tree, tilting his head up, and falling into a deep sleep.

"What, what's the situation?" he couldn't help but open his mouth wide. If a person has bad intentions, he should concentrate and be prepared at all times, how can he fall asleep first in such a situation, is he pretending to be asleep?"

Thinking of this, he walked slowly and quietly to the clay stove, extinguished the fire, and stepped on the stranger's left hand as he walked back. Everything is very natural, and it doesn't look like it's intentional.

The strange man was suddenly awakened by the pain, sat up, quickly shook his left hand, and looked at him with a puzzled expression.

"I'm sorry to accidentally step on you!" said Lonely with an apologetic face.

The strange man lowered his mouth in a daze, looked down and saw that there was still uneaten grilled fish on his right hand, and immediately began to nibble, but before he could take a few bites, he fell asleep in a dizzy state.

"This, this doesn't look like pretending? If he really has bad intentions, he must be careful in everything, how dare he close his eyes and pretend to sleep in this situation? Even if he wants to rely on pretending to be asleep, reduce my precautions, and then wait for an opportunity to sneak attack, then when I just stepped on him, he should have endured it and pretended not to know. If all his reactions were fake, then he must be too similar, right? How could a person pretend to be so similar? Could it be that I was wrong!" He couldn't help but frown and clench his fists.

"Am I a little too suspicious?" he muttered as he raised his hand and touched the ball on his chest. After half a ring, he took a closer look at the strange man who was already sleeping soundly.

The clothes he wore were a little loose, maybe the clothes didn't fit in the first place, or maybe he had become a lot thinner during the time in the Demon Night Forest. Although the clothes are ragged and badly damaged, it can be vaguely seen that it is a men's cotton coat in winter. Judging by the degree of its damage, it can be inferred that the strange man did not stay in the Demon Night Forest for long, and it seems that the degree of damage is somewhat close to the previous coat of the erection of the erector.

"Could it be that he also entered the Demon Night Forest a few years ago?

However, it is not unfounded to think like this, "If you go here from outside the realm of the Demon Night Forest, you will have to go through at least one palace and one hexagram, and with his strength, it will definitely be impossible for him to go so far alone." And, judging by his dress, he should have gone to the Demon Night Forest three or four years ago. In the ancient tree demon and the three-faced owl before, I had never heard of it, and in recent years, there have been other human races who have broken into the Demon Night Forest, and after thinking about it, only those few human races three years ago were powerful......

"Could it be that those Terran powers have brought in other people besides me captively?"

"No, no......" Xiao Li thought about it, slowly squatted down, shook his head vigorously, and denied the idea just now. Because Xiao Li suddenly realized that there was one thing that was not right, he clearly remembered that it was a rainy summer when he was taken away, and the clothes should be single clothes, and the clothes that this person was wearing were obviously winter! This shows that when the two entered the Demon Night Forest, they were in different seasons, so it was naturally unlikely that they came together.

After rejecting this idea, he couldn't help but clench his right hand and whispered, "If he deliberately approached me not to sneak up on me, then what is it for?

"No, it's not right......" Mono Li couldn't help frowning and shaking his head.

"He had been secretly looking at me before, and he must have known that I was a human for a long time, and if he really felt close, it was naturally impossible to escape. But why did he stop running away and ran towards me instead? He couldn't help but fall into memories, thinking about the bits and pieces of Fang Cai, looking for clues.

"At that time, it was after I opened my mouth to shout that he probably heard my voice and stopped running. After he stopped, he didn't seem to pay attention to the babbling, but instead ...... It was staring at me! After a moment, he rushed towards me. ”

"Since this is the case, there is only one possibility: this strange man knows me! When I pursued him, he heard my voice first, so he stopped in some confusion, and only after seeing my appearance clearly, did he quickly run towards me......

"Whew, Whew"

At this moment, the strange man who had fainted became nasal and thick, as if he was snoring.

Xiao Li turned his head to look at the strange man, and thought that a few minutes ago, he was still suspecting that such a person had bad intentions, and he couldn't help but shake his head secretly. "Judging by the way he looks, he probably hasn't slept in a long time. Also, in this demon night forest, there will be a few opportunities to sleep peacefully. He slept so soundly, apparently entrusting himself completely to me, and it seemed that he really knew me, otherwise he would not have trusted me so much when we first met....."

However, then he frowned again, and muttered, "Why does he know me? I don't remember anyone like this? Could it be that after spending several years in the Demon Night Forest, his body and appearance have changed drastically? Shouldn't he be allowed to wash his face, maybe he can recognize a little? However, the day he entered the Demon Night Forest was in winter, and since he was not taken captive with me, it is likely that he is not someone I know at all! Alas~" Thinking like this, he fell into a dead end again.

"Could it be that when I was brought into the Demon Night Forest, he saw me? And I lost those memories, so I can't remember him? Huh~" Xiao Li suddenly took a deep breath and muttered to himself, "This strange person can't be one of the Terran Heavenly Cultivators who broke into the Demon Night Forest back then, right?"

However, after taking a closer look at the strange man's appearance, he shook his head a little self-deprecatingly, he really couldn't imagine that a human race cultivator would become like this. Moreover, the captors who had taken him before were unlikely to feel close to him.

"Whew~" Xiao Li took a deep breath, lay his head upside down on the tree trunk, and stared blankly at the sky that was about to enter the night.

At first glance, I felt that it was above my head, and it seemed that I could touch it with my hand, but in fact, the night was deep and boundless, and I might never see the end, never touch.

Everything about the strange guy is speculation now, and it can't be true, but the only thing that is certain is that although he has some problems with his head and is speechless, he doesn't seem to have any ill will towards Lili, and besides, he must have a deep connection with Lili!
