Chapter 3: Mutants

At night, Qiu Muchen returned to his room, looked at the computer on the side, did not open it, but used his mobile phone single to loop a piece of music he liked, and then stood in front of the window, the bright moon rose, and the bright moonlight was faintly sprinkled on the maple trees all over the mountain, as if covered with a layer of hoarfrost, recalling that he had fainted in the depths of the back mountain.

Just as Qiu Muchen was fascinated, a faint voice intermittently reached his ears from the outside through the window, pulling him back to reality.

"It's strange, who else is in Maple Mountain at such a late hour?" he quickly paused the song and listened carefully, since he woke up, not only his memory has become much stronger, but even his hearing and vision have been significantly enhanced.

"Help... Ahh

"What's the situation? This seems to be the voice of Xiaoru, the daughter of Uncle Seven. Following the sound, a black shadow enveloped a person and quickly flashed into the woods as soon as he came into sight.

Qiu Muchen hurriedly picked up a stick and ran out of the house, because there was his family behind the village, and he didn't have time to call someone, so he rushed to the back mountain.

Recalling the position where the black shadow had just entered, he held the stick in both hands, held it in front of his chest, and looked around as he leaned deeper into the woods, and as soon as he walked a short distance, he saw a girl sitting under a huge maple tree, and the figure was slowly approaching the girl with his back to him.

"Xiaoru, how are you?" Qiu Muchen hurriedly shouted.

The girl's pear blossom with rain was full of horror, and when she saw someone shouting at her, she immediately looked up and saw Qiu Muchen who was running quickly, "Brother Muchen, help! This monster is so scary!"

When the figure heard the word "monster", he let out a low roar and pushed Xiaoru hard, causing her to crash into the trunk of the tree and faint.

"Stop! Who are you?"

After Qiu Muchen finished asking, he saw that the man slowly turned around, and a terrible face appeared in front of him, his eyes had no pupils, but were full of bloodshots, the green tendons on his forehead were like earthworms, and they were still in the cave, his face was pale, and two rows of teeth appeared from his open mouth like spikes.

This made Qiu Muchen, who was originally very close to him, couldn't help but take two steps back: "This... What kind of monster is this?"

He was shocked, originally thought that the third uncle said that the monster was just to scare him, so that he should not go out at night, so as not to be alone outside again, but he didn't expect that there was really a monster.

"Roar~" The monster couldn't help but say these two words again, and directly spread its thick arms and pounced, and a palm with sharp claws slapped on his stomach, so that he flew out three meters away before he could react.

"It hurts. ”

After landing on the ground, Qiu Muchen felt a hot pain in his back and stomach, and looked down to see that the five scratches were constantly seeping blood outward. He quickly sat up and propped himself up, "Is there really a mutant on TV? ”

Before thinking about it, the monster came to him again, and his palm was raised and waved down, but he seemed to be looking at Qiu Muchen's appearance. There was a hint of hesitation. Looking at the monster's hideous face, he immediately struck the wooden stick in his hand its unkempt head, but it was cut off in response.

"Roar~" The monster's left hand grabbed his neck, he was not too tall and was directly lifted up with one hand, the color of struggle and hesitation in its eyes continued to alternate, the palm became more and more forceful, the nails had slowly pierced into the flesh on his neck, and the blood began to flow out of the hand continuously.

Qiu Muchen grabbed its left hand with both hands and tried to pull it away, but unfortunately the disparity in strength was too great, and a feeling of suffocation rushed into his brain, making him feel like he was going to faint at any time.

"Let go of me... I can't die..."

Qiu Muchen's eyes became more and more blank, but he didn't realize that the moment the blood on his neck touched the palm of his left hand, a strange pattern in the palm emitted a faint red light, and as more and more blood flowed out, the more it was contaminated on his hand, all of which were absorbed by the pattern of his palm.

At the moment when he was about to let go, the light of the pattern turned blood-colored red, and the monster felt a violent burning sensation from his left hand, and quickly let go of him, but saw that the back of his hand was scorched black, and there was a small flame burning, the pain made him quickly want to extinguish it, but unfortunately the flame immediately burned violently along the blood of its left hand, and instantly spread to its entire arm.

"Ahh

Qiu Muchen sat on the ground and hurriedly gasped for breath, and after relieving himself, he was attracted by the monster's continuous screams, and when he looked up, the monster's whole body was surrounded by flames, and it was constantly rolling on the ground, and finally there was no movement at all, only a puff of green smoke rose from its corpse.

He touched the wound on his body, but fortunately it was not as deep as he imagined, and he struggled to support his body and came to the girl's side, "Xiaoru, wake up, are you okay?" He shook Lin Xiaoru's body, but there was no reaction.

"Don't worry, little brother, she's fine. ”

Just when he didn't know what to do, a crisp and beautiful voice sounded from behind him, and he hurriedly looked back, for fear of encountering some monster again.

"Who are you?" Qiu Muchen frowned slightly.

I saw that under the moonlight, a tall figure was standing quietly not far from him, the moon-white long windbreaker covered the calves, and the corners of the clothes were painted with golden silk threads. The simple waist is perfectly shown, the long black hair is tied into a ponytail, the hands are behind the back, a few strands of bangs are gently swaying with the breeze, but unfortunately the upper half of the face has a silver-white mask, the forehead is engraved with a snowflake, only a pair of deep eyes and lips and chin are exposed.

"It doesn't matter who I am, tell me first, did you kill this guy? The woman in white came to the charred corpse and took a closer look.

Qiu Muchen also retracted his gaze, looked over, and muttered, "I don't know, he seems to have burned himself to death." ”

"Poof... Who would burn themselves to death?" she chuckled, then came to his side, "Give me your hand." ”

"Don't come near me!" he quickly leaned back.

The woman in white chuckled again: "Don't worry, I won't hurt you, am I going to be in the same league with that monster like this?"

Qiu Muchen wanted to retract, but unfortunately after being caught, her left hand couldn't lift up any strength, so she could only let her observe her hand.

"I found it this time, and it was in vain that I stayed in this place for so long. She carefully observed the pale red pattern of his palm, and a smile appeared on the corner of her mouth.

Qiu Muchen also looked at her hand with her gaze, and after seeing this pattern, she asked with a look of surprise: "This... What is it? How come I haven't seen it before?"

The woman in white didn't pay attention to him, but stretched out her other hand, which contained a small bottle, and said, "You apply this to your wound first, and the wound will heal soon." ”

Qiu Muchen saw that he couldn't move, if this woman wanted to harm herself, she didn't have the ability to resist at all, so she had to take the medicine obediently.

Seeing that he took the medicine, the woman in white let go of her hand, got up and raised her arm, and a watch-like thing appeared on her wrist, which was very delicate, she pressed it for a moment, and then shouted: "Bing Jiu found the target, it's a child, ask for instructions on the next step." ”

After a while, she replied, "Yes, I'll bring it back." ”

Qiu Muchen had just applied the medicine, and when he heard her words, he hurriedly said, "The medicine will be returned to you, thank you, but I won't go with you." ”

Bing Jiu took the medicine and put it in his arms, and casually knocked on the back of his neck, and he fainted, "The order from above is not up to you, I can get a lot of rewards this time." ”

。。。。。。

When Qiu Muchen woke up, he found that he was sitting cross-legged on the ground, and looked around, it seemed that this was the appearance of a hall, with the door behind him, two Taishi chairs and a coffee table in front of him, and antique wooden chairs on both sides, and on the wall behind the Taishi chair, there was a picture of mountains and rivers, and a couplet was hung on both sides: know its male, guard its female, and be the male of the world;

"Where is this?" he rubbed his somewhat sore neck, stood up, and found that all the injuries on his body had healed, and there was not even a scar left, "That Bingjiu's medicine is really good." ”

"You're awake?

Qiu Muchen heard the voice, turned around and saw a person wearing a jade mask walking in from outside the gate, his hair was a little gray, listening to the voice It was a man with long hair, also a moon-white robe, but there were a few more simple snowflakes embroidered on it, and Bing Jiu just now was following behind.

"I... It's okay, who are you? What's going on today? What about Xiaoru? Is she okay?"

The man in the jade mask walked straight to the Taishi chair in front of him and sat down, and Bing Jiu followed closely behind and stood aside and took the lead in speaking: "Little brother, how can we answer you with so many questions?"

"Then tell me how Xiaoru is first?"

"That little sister has been released back to the entrance of the village by me, and it is almost dawning, so she will be found soon. Also, master, can we tell him who we are?" Bing Jiu said as he looked at the person sitting down.

The man waved his hand and said with a smile, "You know the rules." What's your name, Xiaoyou, and would you like to join us?"

"My name is Qiu Muchen, why did I join you? I don't even know you. Qiu Muchen, who said a word from the person in front of him, was inexplicable, and he had encountered too many strange things tonight.

"No reason, I just invited you, if you are willing to join us, not only can you become stronger, but I can also help you answer all your doubts. ”

"Sorry, I don't want to, I want to go home. Qiu Muchen saw that the sky was almost bright, and remembered that today was grandma's sacrifice day, and he didn't know where he was, so he couldn't help but feel a little anxious.

The man didn't show disappointment, but shook his head and continued to smile: "Okay, I'll arrange for someone to send you back now, you can take this, if you change your mind one day, you can contact Jiu'er through it." With that, he handed something similar to a mobile phone to Qiu Muchen.

"I..."

"Don't be busy refusing, even if I have a good relationship with Xiaoyou, and I encounter any unsolvable trouble, I can ask Jiu'er to help you through it. ”

"Thanks, I still want to know if there are monsters like that behind our village?"

"Okay, little brother, I've checked it, and it's gone. Sister send you back. Bing Jiu said and glanced at his master without speaking, and came to him.

"How are we ......" Qiu Muchen just wanted to ask how to go back, when he felt a pain in the back of his neck, and he fainted again.

"Jiu'er, you... Is. What's the monster he's talking about?" The man in the jade mask helplessly looked at Qiu Muchen, who fell to the ground again, and asked.

"Oh, that, I don't know, I was already scorched by this guy when I saw it, but it looks much stronger than the average person, a bit like a mutant. ”

"Mutant, alright, you send him back first. ”

"Yes. Bing Jiu answered, then grabbed Qiu Muchen on the ground with one hand and walked out.

Seeing Bing Jiu walking away, the man suddenly spoke: "If it's really a mutant, what do you think of this matter? ”
