Chapter Seventy-Eight: The Lost Man

Dong Xiaolong drove all the way until dawn and did not encounter any more danger, which also made Dong Xiaolong breathe a sigh of relief, but Liu Qi, who was lying in the trunk, had not woken up until now. There is still about half a day's journey from Dong Xiaolong's hometown, Dong Xiaolong drove off the highway and found a restaurant for breakfast.

Although there were some episodes last night, but after that, it was very stable, Dong Xiaolong let Li Wei sleep well, because only Li Wei is an ordinary person, so she still needs to rest.

Dong Xiaolong helped Li Wei put on an extra piece of clothing, and then helped Li Wei get out of the car. "How do you feel?" Dong Xiaolong asked.

"Luckily, I slept soundly. It's you, who drove all night. ”

"Okay, don't worry about me, take Xiaoqing and grandpa in first. Dong Xiaolong asked Li Wei to order food first, then turned around and walked to the trunk of the car and moved Liu Qi out.

Liu Qi hasn't woken up yet, but his breath is quite stable, indicating that he is still alive. Putting away the earth rock armor on Liu Qi's body, Dong Xiaolong called out to the old man from Ember in the spiritual world: "Senior from Ember!"

After calling the name of the old man from Ember several times in a row, the old man from Ember responded leisurely: "It's noisy since early in the morning, it's noisy!"

"You old man doesn't need to sleep, don't take the opportunity to scold me every time!"

"Tell me something. The old man said with some grumbling.

Dong Xiaolong knew that the old man was deliberately acting in order to let Dong Xiaolong bother him less, but Dong Xiaolong was deeply taught by Tang Hanfeng, and the concept of shamelessness was in his heart, so he naturally wouldn't care about the old man from the ember. "Help me see what's so strange about this guy?"

"I'm the tool you use to check people, let me see the situation at every turn, I'm an old man who has lost his memory, please respect me!"

Dong Xiaolong didn't expect that the old man from Ember thought about it so much, and said helplessly: "Have you seen anything strange recently?"

When Dong Xiaolong said this, the old man coughed lightly, but he didn't respond to him. Dong Xiaolong continued: "Although your old man has amnesia, he is still much stronger than me, a fledgling boy!"

"I'm happy to hear this, and the old man will help you take a look. The old man from Ember took advantage of Dong Xiaolong's spiritual power to probe and inspect Liu Qi's condition, "The power in this guy's body is very pure, and this power is used to the extreme in the flesh, and there is nothing else strange about it. ”

"So, the source of his power is even simpler?" Dong Xiaolong thought of a possibility, the Dark Realm only strengthened Liu Qi's physical strength, and did not give him any strange power.

"He's not the same as the people you meet in the cave, he's still human at heart. ”

"Then what's the difference between him and Li Boyi?" Dong Xiaolong continued to ask.

"It's the boy who is in the same school as you, and his power comes from the provision of the Shadow Man, and once it no longer provides power, the power will gradually disappear. ”

Dong Xiaolong is now sure that Liu Qi will not change anything, so he injected a spiritual force in Liu Qi's eyebrows, intending to wake up Liu Qi.

"What are you doing here?" asked the Ember Elder.

"Wake him up, I have something to ask him. ”

"It's strange that you would want to rush to the enemy to get information. ”

"He's just a lost man, and I'm confident to wake him up. Dong Xiaolong believed that Liu Qi was just confused in his heart, so he embarked on the wrong path.

Dong Xiaolong didn't know if he could wake up Liu Qi by doing this, but he could only think of this one way. Liu Qi coughed lightly a few times, slowly opened his eyes, and when he saw Dong Xiaolong in front of him, he quickly got up and dodged. "What do you want to do?" Liu Qi asked in a heavy voice.

"Come over for breakfast!" Dong Xiaolong turned around and said without looking back.

Liu Qi was stunned, his eyes softened a little, and when he saw Dong Xiaolong's head entering the restaurant without looking back, Liu Qi's hands were also lowered, and after hesitating for a while, Liu Qi slowly walked towards the restaurant.

Seeing Liu Qi walk in, the voice of the old man from Ember sounded in Dong Xiaolong's mind: "Maybe you really got it right." ”

"He's just been bewitched by the Netherworld, and I can see that he's still there. Dong Xiaolong asked the boss for a bowl of white rice porridge and a drawer of meat buns, which were placed on the table. His breakfast was ordered by Li Wei, Dong Xiaolong came over with a bowl of porridge, sat there and waved his hand to signal Liu Qi to sit down. Xiaoqing saw Liu Qi walk in and was about to get up, but was stopped by Li Wei.

Liu Qi didn't hesitate this time, sat down and started eating, and didn't pay attention to Dong Xiaolong. Dong Xiaolong smiled faintly when he saw Liu Qi like this. When Liu Qi had almost eaten, Dong Xiaolong spoke: "Liu Qi, can I ask you something?" Liu Qi did not answer Dong Xiaolong, still drinking porridge with his head down.

"I've invited you for this breakfast, so you should do me a favor. Dong Xiaolong continued.

Liu Qi put down the spoon of porridge and responded indifferently: "I don't need your invitation, and we are enemies." ”

"You have no grudge against me, why are you an enemy?" Dong Xiaolong looked at Liu Qi with a smile.

Liu Qi couldn't find any reason to refute Dong Xiaolong, and rummaged through the pockets on his body, but he didn't turn out a penny. Dong Xiaolong guessed that Liu Qi would not have money, so he continued: "It's just to answer me a few questions, there's no need to resist so much." ”

Liu Qi was a little embarrassed, but looking at his expression, Liu Qi's hostility towards Dong Xiaolong also subsided a little. "You say it, but I don't necessarily answer. ”

Hearing Liu Qi's relief, Dong Xiaolong was secretly happy in his heart, and hurriedly asked, "How did you get in touch with that group of people?"

"It was the man who found me. Liu Qi said lightly.

"That person?" Dong Xiaolong wondered, "Is that person a dark shadow man?"

"The man came from the heart, I didn't really see it, I just followed its instructions. ”

This kind of experience is similar to Li Boyi's day, Dong Xiaolong is just curious, why Liu Qi was found by people in the dark world. "What benefits does it give you?" Dong Xiaolong asked.

"Strength, status. When Liu Qi said this, a glint flashed in his eyes, and it was a longing light.

Dong Xiaolong knew that Liu Qi must be dissatisfied with the society and the injustice of his own fate, and the people targeted by the dark world were all people who had great resentment in their hearts. Dong Xiaolong waved his hand to cover himself and Liu Qi with his true qi, and then said to Liu Qi in a low voice: "I have isolated you and me from them, and what you say can be heard by you and me." ”

"What do you want to do?" Liu Qi didn't understand Dong Xiaolong's behavior.

"I want to bring someone who has lost his way back on the right track. ”

"The right way, the right way you say in your mouth, how can there be a place for an inferior person like us. Liu Qi's mood became a little angry.

Questioning, it is also questioning, the so-called right way, Dong Xiaolong can't say clearly, maybe the right way is just a direction in people's hearts, and this direction is not absolute. For him, the right path is like what the heroes of history did, saving the people from fire and water and repelling the evil in the world.

Every child has his heroic dreams when he is young, and most people's dreams gradually dissipate because of the tempering of society after they become adults. Dong Xiaolong also had the dream of being a hero, and this dream has never been broken until now. This may be the difference between him and Liu Qi, a middle-aged man who has been devastated by society, it is difficult for him to have such pure justice in his heart.

"Your so-called inferior person is only because he has given up on himself and given up on his own people in his heart. Dong Xiaolong's expression became serious, and he had to tell Liu Qi righteously and honestly to make him sober up.

"What do you know about a pampered child like you?" Liu Qi slapped the table, still angry.

Dong Xiaolong suddenly realized that his age was indeed unconvincing, and he ignored this problem, so no matter what he said, the immature hat was put on his head. At this time, Dong Xiaolong thought that his grandfather was by his side, and with his grandfather's age and experience, it was convincing to say.

Just wanted to communicate with his grandfather, Liu Qi got up and walked out without looking back. Dong Xiaolong asked Li Wei to pay, and he got up and chased after him. Out of the restaurant, Dong Xiaolong saw the black shadow man appear in front of Liu Qi, recited a string of incantations on his mouth, and then disappeared.

By the time Dong Xiaolong stepped forward to inspect Liu Qi's condition again, Liu Qi had already changed as a person. Liu Qi's eyes were dark, the green tendons in his body were bursting up, and the whole person began to go crazy. Dong Xiaolong's figure instantly regressed and moved away from Liu Qi.

Xiaoqing walked out of the restaurant first, and when she saw Liu Qi's appearance, she knew that there was another fight to fight, so she hurriedly ran forward and fought with Liu Qi. And now Liu Qi has obviously increased his strength a little, and he can barely deal with Xiaoqing.

Taking advantage of Xiaoqing's move, Dong Xiaolong hurriedly began to condense his skills, and then said to Xiaoqing: "Don't kill him, just control him." ”

Xiaoqing didn't respond to him, but judging from the situation of the fight, Xiaoqing put a lot of water. Dong Xiaolong was gathering the power of thunder and lightning, but it was not a thunder explosion skill, he was just trying to find a way to expel the dark energy in Liu Qi's body. Knowing that his thunder and lightning had a certain restraint effect on the dark qi, Dong Xiaolong accumulated a powerful thunder and lightning power.

After draining eighty percent of the true qi in his body, Dong Xiaolong stopped accumulating and shouted: "Xiaoqing retreat!" Then the thunder flashed, holding the lightning ball, and struck Liu Qimei's heart with a palm.

The power of thunder and lightning is endless, but Dong Xiaolong has controlled the strength, and the damage has been reduced a lot, and he only hopes that a large amount of thunder and lightning can dispel the dark energy in Liu Qi's body.

After five minutes of thunder and lightning output, the black dark qi in Liu Qi's body gradually dissipated, and when the thunder and lightning stopped, Liu Qi knelt on the ground, and Dong Xiaolong instilled a breath of true qi, which made Liu Qi wake up.

Liu Qi woke up and turned over and lay on the ground, looked at the sky and said to Dong Xiaolong: "Why don't you kill me, but save me?"

Dong Xiaolong stretched out his hand, smiled and said, "I'm just helping a lost person!"
