Grease dripped and crackled.
A huge tiger leg was placed on the bonfire.
Li Kui's dinner tonight is a leg from the Demon King.
Bonfires and blankets bring long-lost warmth.
Zhou An has been hungry for too long.
Even though he swallowed in small sips, he finished the bowl of meat porridge in a short time, leaving only the bottom of the bowl that he licked clean.
He put the bowl on the ground, raised his eyes and peeked at Li Kui and a thin black dog next to him, complex thoughts floating in his eyes. There is a constant flow of warm air in the body, which is very comfortable and has a drowsy feeling of comfort.
Zhou An knew in his heart that it was him who saved him.
Be a benefactor.
He stood up and walked to Li Kui, knelt down and kowtowed vigorously.
"Hungry."
(Thanks.)
Li Kui gently held the boy's arm, helped him up, and asked warmly: "What's your name?"
Zhou An pursed his lips, opened his mouth but hesitated, trying to say his name, but what came out was still: "Hungry."
(Ann Zhou.)
"Zhou An."
Li Kui nodded slightly and introduced himself with a smile: "My name is Li Kui, and his name is Xiao Hei."
"Woof!"
Xiao Hei barked and said hello.
Hearing Li Kui call out his name accurately, Zhou An's eyes became more astonished. He quietly glanced at the tiger legs on the campfire, and instantly thought of the tiger head he saw before he fell into coma, and the power to control his body.
He is really a legendary immortal!
When he thought of this, Zhou An was stunned on the spot.
"It's baked."
Li Kui sniffed his nose, and the strong aroma of meat hit his face. Not to mention, the meat of this tiger monster was really good. It really made people want to eat. He reached out and took out the tiger leg, sprinkled some seasoning, and divided it. Give half to Xiaohei:
"Eat it and see how it tastes."
"Woof!"
One man and one dog were chewing tiger meat.
At this moment, there is a rare tenderness in this mountain forest.
After a while.
Li Kui licked the oil stains from his mouth, turned to look at Zhou An, and felt dumbfounded for a moment:
"Why are you just standing there stupidly? After eating, go to sleep and rest."
The kid had eaten and drank enough, and the pill he had fed earlier had taken effect. His eyelids were dozing up and down, but he still forced himself to stare at himself, for fear of disappearing from his eyes in the blink of an eye.
"Don't worry, I won't disappear."
Zhou An turned a deaf ear.
'Quite stubborn. '
Li Kui glanced at him and directly ordered: "Go to bed."
Zhou An had no choice but to lie back on the blanket. After a while, he fell into a deep sleep with a slight feeling of fullness.
"Master, what are the arrangements for this child?"
Xiao Hei yawned and asked lazily.
"Take it with you first."
Li Kui rubbed its head: "You are also tired today, so take a good rest first!"
"Um."
Xiao Hei rested his head on his paws and closed his eyes to rest.
It took a lot of effort to deal with the tiger demon.
This night.
Zhou An had a good dream after a long time.
In the dream, in a familiar home, his father and mother cooked a meal, his little sister held his hand, and the whole family laughed happily.
The next day.
The rising sun shone brightly on Zhou An's face. His eyelids trembled and he suddenly opened his eyes. He stood up suddenly and looked towards the bonfire. He happened to meet Li Kui's gaze and subconsciously breathed a sigh of relief.
"woke up,
"Then let's go, we're leaving."
Li Kui got up from the tree stump, put away the blanket, stepped forward, and said without looking back: "Follow me."
Zhou An watched blankly as the blanket on his body disappeared. His cloudy eyes seemed to glow with a different kind of brilliance, turning into stubbornness and determination. He clutched the dagger and chased after him.
For the rest of the journey, there were stops and starts, and the two of them didn't say a word to each other.
Zhou An didn't think about where Li Kui planned to go. He just stared at his back. There was only one thought in his mind, which was to follow this immortal and learn his skills. He wanted to have the same power as an immortal!
Until the sun reaches the branches.
A village appeared in front of the two people and the dog, which was simply enclosed by a thick wooden fence. It was filled with old tile-roofed houses and thatched cottages.
Deadly silent and deserted.
Zhou An looked at it twice and then looked away.
On the way to escape disaster, he saw too many villages like this, and he was used to separation between life and death.
But they never expected that they would hear bursts of noisy people as soon as they entered the village.
"The benefactor is back."
"The benefactor is back."
"I just said that my benefactor will definitely come back safely!"
A lot of people suddenly poured out from nowhere and surrounded them. Zhou An was stunned for a moment, a little at a loss.
The people in front of him were the same as him, wearing tattered coarse clothes and looking full of excitement.
This lively scene is in sharp contrast to the desolate and silent village just now!
"Quiet, quiet, please don't get excited."
Li Kui first calmed the villagers' emotions, and then the ferocious tiger head appeared on his hand again. However, the blood scab was condensed, the forehead was sunken, and the two black eye sockets looked particularly scary.
He smiled and said:
"Folks, I have killed the tiger monster that caused trouble. From now on, you are free!"
As soon as these words came out, the villagers fell silent instantly, with tears rolling down their eyes, and they all knelt down and kowtowed deeply in thanks.
"Thank you benefactor, thank you benefactor."
An old man with a cane stood up tremblingly and said with tears in his eyes: "I and the fifty or so people in the village would like to thank my benefactor for saving his life."
"Okay, don't say any more thanks."
Li Kui stretched out his hand to support his father-in-law with a gentle smile: "Let's get down to business first. The village chief will take me there."
"Okay, okay, okay."
The old man said hello three times excitedly, "It's at the village ancestral hall. My benefactor, please come with me."
Come in a hurry, go in a hurry.
The villagers gathered around Li Kui and the village chief to go to the ancestral hall, and Zhou An naturally followed. However, just after turning a corner, everyone disappeared without even a shadow.
"Hungry,
"Hungry."
Zhou An was so worried that he stood at the crossroads looking around blankly, chose one of the directions, and started running to search.
As he ran, he found that the village was like a maze. Not only was there no one around, he didn't even know where he was. As he ran, he plunged into the intricate alleys.
at this time.
"Ouch."
The sound like a child falling sounded in the alley.
A Cuju made of rattan rolled out from the shadows and stopped in front of Zhou An.
"Um...can you pick it up for me?"
Zhou An looked around.
It was a boy about his age.
But Zhou An didn't have the time to pay attention to him at this time, so he had to step over directly.
"Forget it if you don't take it, it's really bad~"
At this time, the boy's voice actually came from the ground!
A cold current ran up his back, and Zhou An couldn't walk for a while, looking down stiffly.
In a trance.
The Cuju on the ground turned into the child's head.
Look up again.
It turned out that the boy was actually a headless body.
"Ahhhhh!!!"
This scene frightened Zhou An so much that he stumbled and fell to the ground, waving the rusty dagger in his hand randomly.
But I saw the headless corpse walking over step by step.
Zhou An’s pupils opened wider and wider!
Sudden.
"Here, here's your head."
A big hand suddenly appeared in front of him.
Li Kui straightened the boy's head again, spanked him with his hand, and scolded him with a smile: "Naughty boy, your mother has been looking for you for a long time, go to the ancestral hall quickly."
The child was not upset even after being spanked and laughed twice.
"I understand, benefactor."
Then the boy disappeared through the wall.
"What a naughty kid."
Li Kui looked at Zhou An who turned pale with fright, stretched out his hand and said, "Are you okay?"
Zhou An was breathing rapidly. Instead of holding Li Kui's hand, he rubbed his back against the wall and stood up by himself.
After swallowing a mouthful of interference and spitting, he asked anxiously: "Are you a ghost too?"
"ghost?"
The smile on Li Kui's face was a little playful: "Guess."
