Hu Qi was lying on the bed, staring at the roof in a daze, with complicated expressions on his face. From the time he could remember, to when he was diagnosed with martial arts talent, he felt that his life had undergone a huge change.
Weird things are rare in the village, at least that's what Hu Qi thinks.
Ever since he was a child, apart from hearing about the existence of weirdness from the mouths of adults, he had never seen any real weirdness.
Every once in a while, someone would hear that someone in the village had suffered a strange murder.
What impressed him most was that he saw the corpses of a family of five in the village being carried out and torn apart.
That time, he learned about the existence of weirdness.
But it was only after he joined the patrol that he truly understood the weird horror.
It was almost, almost, that the strange boy who looked like five or six years old put his claws into his chest and abdomen.
Why is this world so unfair to people?
Hu Qi suddenly felt resentful.
He turned over and jumped up, kicking the edge of the bed hard with his feet.
Boom!
It made a deep sound.
Hu Qi suddenly turned his head and looked at the small window of the house. The window was more than one meter high and could only fit a child's head in.
Just now, he saw what seemed to be a shadow flashing past.
Maybe someone from the patrol.
Hu Qi was not too worried. This is a closed area, but there are patrols staying outside.
People like them who have encountered strange things will have to stay here for several days even if they drink the talisman water brewed by the strange talisman.
It doesn't matter if you're in confinement or not, you don't have to go out and have to go on patrol.
Hu Qi felt that he was a little timid, unlike when he first joined the patrol team. Compared with other newcomers, he was more confident.
Be confident that you can survive and become a powerful warrior.
Like a team leader.
Hu Qi felt a sense of gloom again, as if something was blowing cold wind on the back of his neck.
He turned his head, but his eyes fell on the small window.
There, a disheveled face stood quietly.
"weird!"
He was so frightened that he kept screaming.
However, the patrol members who were supposed to be standing around did not move at all.
Hu Qi clung to the wall, staring intently at the figure outside the small window.
His sword and talismans have been confiscated, and he can only clench his fists at this moment, trying to cheer himself up.
Fortunately, the figure just stood there, and after a while, he disappeared.
Hu Qi was so scared that he hid in the corner. As time passed, sleepiness gradually creeped onto his brow.
Suddenly, I heard a knock on the door.
He was so frightened that he broke into a cold sweat and did not dare to speak.
Not long after, the knocking on the door disappeared.
Hu Qi felt a little relieved. He didn't dare to fall asleep again and stared outside.
"We must change rooms when it gets daylight!" he thought to himself.
suddenly--
Ta-ta-ta!
The knock on the door sounded again.
It was very abrupt, as if it was in my ears.
Hu Qi's body trembled suddenly, and he felt a little wet in his lower body.
The knocking on the door began to get louder, as if people outside knew he was inside.
Ta-ta-ta~ta-ta-ta~
"Hu Qi! Hu Qi!" someone shouted.
Hu Qi showed a hint of joy on his face, making sure that he had heard correctly, and finally asked cautiously: "Are you Erniu brother?"
Even Hu Qi didn't notice that his name had changed, and Zhang Erniu's appearance made him look like a weed in a drowning pile.
"Yes! What are you doing in there?"
"Nothing! Just -" Hu Qi wanted to say that he was scared, but the sudden shame made him react, "Just lying down and recuperating. Did you find anything outside - did you find anything?"
"No!"
"Oh~ Then help me see if there is anyone by the window?" Hu Qi looked at the window. There was no one there, but he still felt uneasy.
There was a sound of footsteps.
Hu Qi saw a figure appearing at the window, and his heart skipped a beat, but he soon discovered that the figure was different from the one he had seen before. He took a closer look, and Zhang Erniu's face with a bit of simplicity appeared in it.
In front of you.
"You scared me to death!" Hu Qi couldn't help but said.
"Didn't you ask me to take a look at this?" Zhang Erniu said and returned to the door.
"Open the door and let me in. I'm bored in the house."
Hu Qi opened the door.
"Who says it's not? Now I can't sleep well. When I open my eyes, I see those horrible and weird things dangling in front of me!" Hu Qi was still frightened.
"Now you understand why many people in the patrol team have weird tempers, right?" Zhang Erniu said.
Patrol?
Hu Qi suddenly remembered something and stared at Zhang Erniu, "You - aren't you locked in the room? How can you come out?"
Zhang Erniu said: "Isn't this strange? Can't you also open the door from the inside?"
"No! It's obviously locked outside. It's impossible to open the door from the inside in a closed area -" Hu Qi's words suddenly stopped, because Zhang Erniu, who was originally normal, suddenly turned his neck 180 degrees, with a terrifying face.
appear before your eyes.
His hair is disheveled, his eyes are covered with bloodshot eyes, and two lines of blood stains are clearly visible...
"What's wrong, Lao Huang?" Shi Guan saw Lao Huang lying on the ground move.
Lao Huang, who was breathing weakly, raised his eyelids with difficulty and looked at Shiguan, and then there was no movement again.
After fending off monsters for Shi Guan last time, Lao Huang was seriously injured. Shi Guan was originally prepared for Lao Huang's death, but strangely, after more than a day, Lao Huang miraculously improved, although he was still sluggish.
Not feeling energetic, but at least I can eat meat.
I estimate that in a few days, Lao Huang will be able to stand up again.
"You can survive even having several holes scratched in your stomach. Should I say you are lucky, or -" Shi Guan touched Lao Huang's dog head and murmured in his heart.
Not getting a response from Lao Huang, Shi Guan could only continue to squint and rest.
The next day, after drinking a bowl of talisman water as usual, Shi Guan stayed in the room thinking about his battle with the strange rice spirit.
He has no shortage of physical strength and strength, and he even has a hunch that he can even compete with Zhang Yan and other people in the early stages of body tempering in this aspect. The only difference is that there is no breath in his body.
This also makes sense that when he faced Dao Lingwei that day, he was able to crush the opponent with his hard power.
The strange strength of the white fantasy-level rice spirit is comparable to that of ordinary warriors in the bone-tempering realm. In terms of speed, it is strangely powerful. It is probably stronger than the warriors in the early stage of body-tempering. If it were not slightly inferior in terms of attack, he might have died long ago.
Taken together, excluding aura, his strength is comparable to that of a warrior in the early stages of the Body Tempering Realm.
And he also has advantages that strong men in the early stages of the body quenching realm don't have.
That's defense.
Shi Guan had a hunch that the strength of Zhang Yan and others after tempering their skin and bones could not compare to him.
This should be the advantage of intermediate martial arts.
In addition, he also exposed a shortcoming when facing Dao Ling, that is, his lack of combat experience.
The reason why he was able to escape with his life was due to the defense after tempering his bones.
There is nothing we can do about this. We can only pay more attention to this aspect in the future, or in other words - build up the defense to a strong enough level.
Obviously, the latter moved Shi Guan's heart more than the former.
Think about it, holding a cigarette in your mouth, standing and letting the opponent chop you, how powerful it is - a real big boss rhythm.
"Shi Guan, it's time to eat!" A patrol member brought the meal in through the small window.
When I opened the stone temple and took a look, a look of satisfaction flashed across my eyes.
The meals are sumptuous.
Meat consumption has doubled as before.
Muramasa Yusei's movements were much faster than he thought.
