Chapter 37: Waiting
The bright moon hung in the air, and there was silence all around, and even the rows of bright street lamps not far away had been extinguished, officially announcing that Guangyao City had entered its rest time.
Liu Qingmian sat cross-legged on the bed, his true breath emanating from his limbs and hundreds of remains, probing the other cultivators around him who might exist, but the answer was nothing.
She slowly opened her eyes, and saw the newly installed doors and windows, and the door frames were even pasted with undried yellow mud. Because the doors and windows have not been fixed, it may cause many problems, such as not being able to close the door hard, or the door can't block anything at all, anyway, the bun was supposed to prevent everyone from staying in this room again, but a few people casually agreed, and finally secretly moved in.
At Liu Qingmian's insistence, he still lived according to yesterday's room allocation, but he suspected that he would live in the next room on the other side of Liu Qingmian today, and Jingxian chose to lurk outside, but he didn't tell everyone where he would hide and lurk.
Waiting has become long under this silence, especially when the waiting is still a monster, it is really like a year, Liu Qingmian because of the lack of rest in the past two days, her eyelids are getting heavier and heavier, and she is already sleepy and about to fall asleep, she can only barely maintain the breath to beat her spirit, once she falls asleep now, no one can say what will happen next, so she has to adjust herself to the best state as much as possible.
Liu Qingmian followed the mantra of Yun Yan's heart method to continuously temper her true breath, and at the same time, she had also been paying close attention to the blood demon aura in her body. Since breaking through the first tribulation, the Blood Demon was no longer at ease with only sleeping on her chest, even with the blind jade bracelet fully opened, the red mist was still very vibrant, not as effective as before, and she had begun to worry about how long the bracelet would last.
Just as she was thinking about the future, a chill rushed up her spine, causing goosebumps to blow all over her body. The chill came from an aura that she was unfamiliar with, but she would never forget in a short time, and the monster had reappeared, and it seemed to be getting stronger!
Liu Qingmian stared at the window with her eyes, the bright moon hung high, and the moonlight hit the window paper without any obstruction, and the figure of the monster did not appear, but her hands had already been clenched into a fist, and a trace of true breath was also running in her body, forming a layer of protective true breath.
At the same time, she quietly walked to the far left of the room and knocked two or three times on the wall with her hand, because several people had no way to communicate with each other, so this was the code that she and Jiang Huaiyi set before the action began, and Jiang Huaiyi lived next door to her.
After waiting for more than ten seconds, the originally expected voice did not appear, Liu Qingmian knocked a few times again, but the other party still did not respond.
It can't be asleep, right?" Liu Qingmian frowned and guessed.
Suddenly, a sound came from outside the window, Liu Qingmian turned her head suddenly, but her afterglow only had time to see the dim moonlight, and her ears were already filled with the sound of the wooden door breaking, a gust of wind came from the back of her head, Liu Qingmian instinctively threw herself on the ground on the side, and then rolled a few times, only to hear the sound of "aggressive" breaking the sky around her, and her heart almost jumped to her throat.
The panicked cracking sound sounded like something was being struck by something incomparably sharp and rapid, and it was struck in quick succession.
Under the continuous rolling, Liu Qingmian was also a little dizzy, but this was not the most important thing, the most fatal thing was that she had rolled to the edge of the wall, and there was no way to avoid it!
That feeling of extreme danger emerged again, Liu Qingmian saw that there was no way out, and the true breath shield that had been condensed around his body exploded instantly, with the strong thrust released at the moment of the explosion, Liu Qingmian used force under his feet, stepped on the wall and borrowed the force, and the whole person rushed out of the room and fell on the grass outside the door.
Because of the protection of the body's true breath, in addition to looking more embarrassed, she did not suffer any substantial damage. With a few rolls to unload the remaining strength, Liu Qingmian also took advantage of the momentum to push her hand, standing up like an agile cat, and did another evasive action to prevent the enemy from attacking where she landed.
For the doors and windows were completely destroyed, and the moonlight illuminated everything that was within its reach.
A man with a disheveled hair was standing in the middle of the room in a strange posture, its face was hidden in the shadows, and it could only be seen that its long unkempt and dirty hair was scattered indiscriminately, and it didn't know how long it had not been combed, and the clothes on its body were also dirty, even more sloppy than all the beggars on the road.
This must be the 'monster' that has plagued her for two days, I saw this monster standing stiffly in the middle of the house, without moving, its standing posture is very strange, because this is definitely not an ordinary person can remain motionless!
Although Liu Qingmian experienced the thrilling attack just now, she didn't feel too nervous, but when she saw the strange movements of the people in the room, she instantly thought of a very similar thing, and it was also something that scared her a lot - "zombies".
Liu Qingmian was also a young man who loved to watch all kinds of popular blockbusters in her previous life, and she naturally wouldn't miss zombie-themed movies, she was not afraid of zombies on the screen, no matter how disgusting she was, she could watch it with a smile, but when that thing was really standing quietly in front of her, she couldn't help but have a strong sense of disobedience and fear.
What's more, this is still a zombie that is much stronger than himself.
Because of the suddenness of the incident, Liu Qingmian was still standing in place, but the monster on the opposite side had already moved. It stiffened its turn and stepped forward, and although its movements were very uncoordinated, it had clearly seen Liu Qingmian standing behind it.
After a few steps, the moonlight finally illuminated the monster's full appearance, and also illuminated the monster's tattered and thin face, and its eyes were glowing with a terrible green light, which was really terrifying as a demon!
This can be said to be the most terrifying and disgusting face that Liu Qingmian has ever seen. The continuous impact of all this made Liu Qingmian's brain unable to turn for a while, as a flower that grew up in a greenhouse in the previous life, when had she ever seen such an impactful thing?
The monster continued to walk forward, but at the next step, the whole figure disappeared, and the next second it appeared in front of Liu Qingmian, a face that was erosive, and even had rotting flesh on it, opened its mouth at her, and made a silent smile.
"Touch!" The monster waved out his hands, and Liu Qingmian's whole person flew out like a cannonball, hitting the wall hard, and she was simply under the protection of the True Breath Barrier, she just felt a little dizzy, but it finally woke her up from the confusion just now.
The monster's terrifying face moved, revealing an expression similar to doubt, although its blow was only a simple physical attack, this was also the reason why Liu Qingmian's barrier was almost not lost,
, but its strength is indeed real, but the good news is that this barrier is formed by compressing and condensing pure true breath, so it has a very good resistance ability, and Liu Qingmian's system has improved too much compared to before, so this blow seems dangerous, but the effect is not obvious.
But this momentum was not small, and the door of the room on the other side of Liu Qingmian's room was suddenly kicked open, only to see Lin Yurou's hands shining with pink, flying out with a snow cherry wreath, and shouting anxiously: "Liu Qingmian!
"Yurou, I'm fine!, where's your sister?" Liu Qingmian took Lin Yurou to his side, his eyes fixed on the monster that froze in place again, this monster seemed to take a while to prepare for the next one after each attack.
But all this is just a temporary speculation, and Liu Qingmian does not dare to be careless.
"I let her hide in the room, my sister's cultivation is too low, and coming out will cause trouble. Lin Yurou said to her, while following her gaze at the monster, her mouth instantly opened silently.
Liu Qingmian looked at her expression, although the situation was urgent, and she couldn't help laughing, but she also glanced at the other room, the room where Jiang Huaiyi lived, there was still no movement.
There have been two loud noises in a row, and there is no reason why Jiang Huaiyi will not notice it no matter how dead he sleeps, Liu Qingmian's heart is a little irritable because of the uneasiness that emerged, could it be that this monster did something to Jiang Huaiyi in advance before attacking her?
Thinking that Jiang Huaiyi might have been attacked before her, she felt remorse in her heart, even if she and the two sisters of the Lin family were weak, they were still cultivators, and for monsters who were also cultivators, there was also a trace of defensive power, why did she drag ordinary people into the water?
This monster is clearly coming towards her!
Liu Qingmian's heart was confused, but the monster didn't give her any respite, it moved again, and started a new round of movement towards the position of the two. One step, two steps, three steps, Liu Qingmian's eyes widened instantly, and a strong force was carried in his hand, and Lin Yurou fell back violently to the bushes next to him, and at the same time, he also tapped his toes lightly, and jumped away from the place quickly.
"Xiao Mian!ah-" Lin Yurou, who was pushed out, only had time to let out a scream, and the whole person spun around, falling into the bushes in the yard as decoration, the bushes made her back hurt, but it didn't hurt, she just felt that the wind flashed in front of her, mixed with an inhuman roar, which stabbed her ears and hurt.
Liu Qingmian pushed Lin Yurou away in time, and she also dodged the monster's attack, and there was that strange sound in her ears again, she looked up, and saw that the monster's hands had the gorgeous and slender nails she had seen in the window before, and these nails were deeply embedded in the soil.
