The boy’s home is very simple, a bit too simple.
The room was not big, with only a lame wooden bed and a cabinet. The cabinet was used as a bed leg to cushion the foot of the bed.
There are two wooden bowls placed on the cabinet, which apparently also serve as tables.
There is a stove in the corner, with a small pile of firewood piled next to it and a small ax standing next to it.
Next to the stove, there are two dilapidated jars with lids on them. I don’t know what they contain. Other than that, there is nothing else. In the true sense, the house is bare.
When the big eyes that had been watching the door saw the young man coming in, they immediately ran over and hid behind the young man, looking timidly at Zhang Tuohai and Lilith.
"Is there anything going on at home? No outsiders are coming?"
The boy asked Big Eyes.
Big eyes shook his head.
"That's good, just wait, there will be something delicious today."
The young man came to the stove skillfully, scooped some water from a jar, took out two flints from the stove, and picked some dry thin pine branches from the firewood pile nearby as kindling. After a while, the flames
It rose in the stove.
The young man took some chaff from another vat, poured it into the pot, broke the chicken into small pieces, threw part of it into the pot, tied the rest with a rope, and hung it from the beam.
The young man did it very quickly, seemingly unprepared, and exposed his back to Zhang Tuohai, but the corner of his eye always stared at Zhang Tuohai and Zhang Tuohai.
Zhang Tuohai also felt that it was understandable to be wary of young people. If two unknown strangers came to his home, he would treat them in the same way. No, if the Tianli Library was broken into, he would have already called out the self-propelled machines.
The Book of Law, the will of the world has been copied.
"By the way, can I ask a question?"
Seeing that the young man was almost busy with his work, Zhang Tuohai finally spoke.
"You said."
When the young man heard this, he immediately turned around and unconsciously touched the hatchet at his waist.
"When I first came to the village, I saw smoke rising from many homes. However, when I knocked on the door, many people put out the smoke. No matter how hard I knocked, no one answered. What's going on?
Something?"
Zhang Tuohai asked curiously.
Hearing Zhang Tuohai's words, the young man's face turned livid instantly.
"You mean, you saw smoke from the house?" the young man asked shivering.
"Yeah, what's wrong? Is there any problem?"
Zhang Tuohai asked curiously.
"A group of bandits came to the village half a month ago. Just when night fell, the bandits robbed the only remaining food in the village. Not satisfied, they finally killed all the people in the village and dragged them back to be used as food. Now
, the village has become an empty village, where did the people come from?"
The young man said, his voice trembling.
"Wucao!" Zhang Tuohai couldn't help but tremble in his heart when he heard the young man's words.
If everything the young man said is true, then what did he see in the village during the day?
Ghost?
At this moment, Lilith, who had been looking at the room, suddenly spoke.
"Let me ask, how do you know all this? Although your house is relatively remote, it is still close to the village. If the robber comes in, there will be no reason to let you go. How did you survive?"
"How did I survive? How did I survive?" After hearing Lilith's question, the boy couldn't help mumbling to himself. He covered his head with his hands and squatted down slowly. He felt
His mind was about to explode. He desperately wanted to recall how he survived. However, the memory of that day was a mess. He wanted to see clearly, but he couldn't see clearly.
The young man squatted on the ground in pain, hammering his head with both hands.
"Brother, what's wrong with you? Brother!" Upon seeing this, Big Eyes immediately squatted beside the young man and shouted anxiously.
"I, I hid my sister in the hole at the bottom of the tank that day, and I hid under the bed. A robber wanted to move the tank to check the situation. I, I was afraid that he would find out, so he rushed out from under the bed and beat him with a knife.
I cut off his legs, and his screams attracted other robbers. There were too many of them, and then... I died..."
After saying this, the young man's body suddenly stopped trembling, and he slowly raised his head, staring at Zhang Tuohai.
At this time, his eyes were filled with blood-red color, and the surface of his body was covered with a layer of black mist. The mist floated like black flames.
"Why, why, do you want me to think of all this!"
The boy's body began to fade, literally fading.
Zhang Tuohai watched with his own eyes as the color on the boy's body slowly faded, eventually turning into pure black.
"Roar!"
When the last trace of color on the boy's body faded, the boy's figure completely changed. His body was stretched taller, his hands turned into sharp claws, and he fiercely grabbed Zhang Tuohai.
"What is this? Is it a ghost?"
Zhang Tuohai thought as he took out his umbrella and moved upward to parry.
Bang!
With a muffled sound, Zhang Tuohai directly knocked the ghost that the boy had turned into away.
The ghost hit the wall, then bounced back and fell to the ground.
Looking at the ghost figure falling to the ground, Zhang Tuohai frowned.
He had just used the properties of quantum crystals, but the ghost had no impact at all and was just knocked away.
This situation becomes troublesome.
"What is going on? Are everyone here quantified, or do people in the quantum world have special characteristics that allow them to ignore attacks with quantum crystal characteristics?"
Zhang Tuohai secretly guessed.
If it's the latter, it's better, but if it's the former, doesn't it mean that everyone in the quantum world is born a demigod?
Zhang Tuohai felt a little scared in his heart.
However, Zhang Tuohai knows that now is not the time to think about this. The first thing to do now is to kill the ghost while it is weak.
He raised the black umbrella in his hand and continued to attack the black shadow.
Just when the black umbrella in his hand was about to attack the ghost, the big-eyed little girl who had been hiding behind the boy suddenly rushed out from behind and hugged Zhang Tuohai's black umbrella.
"Please, don't kill my brother, he is a good man, please!"
The girl held Zhang Tuohai's umbrella and said loudly.
"He has turned into a ghost, stay away, otherwise, it will kill you too."
Zhang Tuohai frowned and said.
"No, don't, he is my brother, he is a good man, he will not do anything to me, please, give him a chance, I can take him out of here, I won't let you see, by the way, that one
I’ll give you back the chickens, we don’t want anything.”
The girl with big eyes is holding Zhang Tuohai's umbrella and crying.
Zhang Tuohai frowned upon seeing this.
Just when he was about to make a move, Lilith suddenly grabbed his sleeve: "Dad, don't act in a hurry, there seems to be a chance for things to turn around."
