Chapter 154 The boy who defeated the beast
"It turned out to be the power of the sword spirit." Qiutong looked at the young man and said, "Unfortunately, although this sword spirit is powerful, it is not enough to trigger everything with a mortal body."

"A sword spirit?" Li Yu remembered his own sword.

The young man's expression was full of exhaustion, as if he had exhausted his strength from the blow just now, but he looked at the fierce beast struggling endlessly in mid-air and said indifferently: "I use myself as bait, and the blood in my heart as a guide, Fang Only then can you arouse the limit of the power of the sword spirit, and with your current cultivation base, you will not be able to break free no matter what."

The ferocious beast couldn't understand, and still threw itself on the cage and bit it desperately, letting the blue flame burn it to pieces.

After using the move just now, the blue flame on the young man's sword had already died out, the young man could only sigh, although Qiongqi was now trapped in the cage, he couldn't kill him with his remaining strength.He then turned around and walked towards the direction where Lu Xu was escaping, saying to himself, "It's still impossible to draw out the full power of the sword spirit. It's better to use less of such tricks in the future." Yun Yun.

But Lu Xu has been chased to the point of desperation by a cat, a bird, and a ball of mud.If it weren't for the fact that these three monsters wanted to monopolize their prey and restrained each other, Lu Xu might have turned into a pile of minced meat.

But after chasing this point, Lu Xu was really exhausted.His down jacket had been torn into strips, with white duck feathers mixed with black mud sticking to his body. Half of his left trouser leg had disappeared, revealing a snow-white calf with three streaks on it. There was still blood flowing out of the huge scratches.

Then came the scene at the very beginning of this article, where the male protagonist soaked half dead in a pool of sewage at the entrance of the alley, silently waiting for the pursuers behind him to come and dismember him.

However, Lu Xu closed his eyes and waited for a long time, but the expected fatal blow did not come to him. He thought: Is it because I am lying here motionless, those monsters think I am dead, and they don't Eating dead things?
of course not!

I only heard a joking voice saying from the side: "Hey, you pretend to be dead. Dare you, you used to be an extra in a movie. How about playing a corpse?"

Lu Xu opened his eyes, first saw a pair of British-style leather boots, and then realized that a person was standing in front of him, looking down at him.Lu Xu stood up quickly, noticing that the black cat, the big bird, and the slime monster were all standing very far away at the moment, looking at the person beside him warily.This man was the man wearing a long windbreaker and blue jeans and carrying a plastic bag that he saw at the entrance of the alley. If Lu Xu hadn't been looking for him, he wouldn't have caused any trouble later.

Even though Lu Xu was full of resentment to express at this time, it was already very difficult for him to just stand up now.While watching Lu Xu stand up tremblingly from the muddy water, the man calmly took out a piece of chocolate from the plastic bag and chewed it carefully, completely ignoring that there were three monsters staring at him a little far away. .

"Do you want to eat?" Seeing Lu Xu staring at him, the man passed out the half-eaten chocolate in his hand, and finally smiled "hehe", the chocolate stains on his white teeth were very obvious.

Lu Xu pushed away the other party's chocolate, stared at the man's sharp-edged face, and watched the monsters in the distance from the corner of his eye. So terrified, and then asked: "What the hell happened? Where did the people in this city go? What are these monsters? Please! Tell me!"

The man was not in a hurry to answer Lu Xu's question, but just smiled and silently looked at Lu Xu, his eyes full of thoughtfulness.After a while, he said: "You inhaled the black miasma of the mud boy, and you were injured by the poisonous claws of the nine-life cat. The poison has already flowed all over your body, and you can still stand up and talk to me alive... This is simply the essence of life." Miracle."

Lu Xu felt several black lines suddenly appear on his forehead.

"Wait, I actually forgot to introduce myself, I'm really sorry." The man put on a "suddenly remembered" expression in an instant, and said; "My name is Angel... Occupation, I used to be a freelancer Or, now.”

After introducing himself, the man who claimed to be Angel suddenly showed a harmless smile to the three monsters in the distance, and shouted enthusiastically: "Cute little animals, do you want to come and eat some chocolate?"

Following his shout, the mud boy wriggled and disappeared into the boundless night as if struck by lightning, his speed was actually a bit faster than when he was chasing Lu Xu before.The Nine Lives Cat, which was the size of a cheetah, seemed to have been stepped on its tail, its fur exploded, and it also fled extremely quickly.The owl that was originally perched on the roof of a building was relatively calm, turned around and flew into the distance.

Seeing the three "cute little animals" leave, Lu Xu entered a state of petrification in an instant, and didn't recover for a long time.When he came back to his senses, he saw the man squatting down, stretched out a slender hand, caressed the wound on his calf, and muttered: "Is it just a flesh wound? It must have been blown by the claw wind." That's all." After speaking, he saw that the hand he was caressing the wound slowly revealed a golden light, and Lu Xu immediately felt a warmth slowly penetrate into his body from the wound on his calf. The pain of the wound or the discomfort of inhaling the poisonous miasma were replaced by an unprecedented sense of comfort.When the light in Angel's hand gradually went out, the three bloody scratches on Lu Xu's calf had completely healed, not even leaving a scar.

"Then, you can understand now." Angel stood up and smiled slightly.

Lu Xu was obviously shocked again by Angel's ability just now, and he didn't react for a while, so he said, "Uh... understand what?"

Angel said: "This world is no longer the world you used to understand. In the current world, diplomas, official positions, technology, etc. are all abolished. The only thing you need to do is to live. I say that , do you understand?"

Lu Xu nodded, then shook his head again, with a confused look on his face, "What is the 'present world'? What is the 'previous world'? What were those monsters just now? What happened to this city? Where did you go?"

Angel didn't continue to explain. He looked deep into the alley, then turned back to look at Lu Xu. The smile on his face never faded, "Okay, it seems that your companion has come, so he will take you there." Let him explain the problem." After that, he stretched out his hand to rub Lu Xu's hair mischievously, and then said: "If you can survive, I think we will meet again."

Realizing that the young man in front of him was about to leave, Lu Xu panicked. He quickly grabbed the other man's sleeve and looked into the shadows around him, fearing that there might be some strange things lurking nearby.The smile on Angel's face didn't fade, and she got rid of Lu Xu's pull with a wave of her hand, and said jokingly: "I admit that I am handsome, but it doesn't mean that I can accept men's pursuit."

Lu Xu wanted to say something else, but Angel just waved his hand and turned around. He didn't see how he moved, but disappeared into the boundless night in the blink of an eye.

"This is no longer the world I was familiar with." Lu Xu muttered to himself looking at the direction where Angel disappeared.

At this time, there was a slight sound of footsteps approaching from the other end of the alley.Lu Xu was really frightened by the cats, birds, mud, and the like before. When he heard any movement, his first reaction was to run away.But I heard a tired voice say, "Don't run, it's me."

Only then did Lu Xu remember the boy who had stopped Qiongqi for him before, so he put down his steps and looked at the direction of the footsteps in the depths of the alley, and he saw the boy walking slowly.

"You are still alive." After seeing Lu Xu, the young man said lightly. At this time, his expression was full of exhaustion, but he still straightened his back like a soldier.

Lu Xu stopped for a while.

In fact, if it weren't for Angel's sudden appearance at the last minute.It is very likely that Lu Xu is now "separated from flesh and blood, and heartbroken".

"Let's go, our current situation is not safe yet." The young man walked straight past Lu Xu and only looked at him briefly, but he was not worried at all whether Lu Xu would follow.

Only then did Lu Xu look at the boy who had saved him through the deserted moonlight.The boy's age will not exceed, his face is handsome, but his complexion reveals a sickly paleness.The boy's height is only about 1.7 meters [-], which is half a head shorter than Lu Xu's. Even though he is wearing a thick down jacket and a turtleneck sweater, he still gives off a terribly thin feeling, as if he is just recovering from a serious illness. General weakness.It's hard to imagine that even such a slender person possesses the power to subdue the beast Qiongqi.

"What's your name?" Lu Xu chased after him and asked.

"Xu Tao", the boy replied without looking back, and left the alley on his own.

"My name is Lu Xu." Lu Xu quickly followed the boy named Xu Tao, and said, "Can you tell me now? What happened to this city?"

The young man coughed suddenly, and following the violent cough, his face turned a strange blush, and dark red blood gushed out of his mouth and nose.Lu Xu quickly stepped forward to support him, and found that this thin body seemed to have been drained of strength.

Xu Tao pulled Lu Xu's collar with all his strength, and said, "Take me to find a place to hide until dawn... A city at night is a city of monsters!"

Seeing Xu Tao's hoarse voice, Lu Xu immediately understood the seriousness of the matter, hurriedly picked up the frail young man on his back, and walked towards the nearest house.

"No, you can't go in there!" After Xu Tao said this, he coughed violently again, and stretched out a hand to hold his heart firmly, as if it was being pierced by a steel needle.

"What's there?" Li Yu thought.
