After an unknown amount of time, Li Fugui felt a slight noise and opened his eyes to find a vague shadow walking towards him.

Li Fugui lost all sleep in an instant. He turned over and pinned the attacker underneath him, holding the kitchen knife firmly against his neck.

After calming down, Li Fugui realized that the person under him was actually Fu Yulang. At this moment, he was so frightened that his face turned pale and he did not dare to move, for fear that the kitchen knife in Li Fugui's hand would move forward and send him to his death.

Li Fugui frowned and put away the kitchen knife. When he turned around, he found the tall and thin Zhao Dongyu looking at him nervously. There seemed to be a figure lying on the sofa.

Seeing Li Fugui put away the kitchen knife, Fu Yulang got up from the ground in fear and touched his neck with lingering fear.

"I don't know what happened just now, Zhou Hongda suddenly felt a little abnormal." Fu Yulang swallowed his saliva and said softly. He glanced at the kitchen knife on Li Fugui's waist and swore in his heart that he would not dare to sleep with Li Fugui next time even if he was beaten to death. It's time to call him.

"Abnormal?" Li Fugui muttered and came to the sofa.

Originally, Li Fugui thought that Zhou Hongda might be infected with some germs. However, after Li Fugui checked, he found that Zhou Hongda's whole body was actually cold and getting colder.

"I didn't mean it...I'm sorry..." Zhou Hongda muttered unconsciously on the sofa, hugging the quilt tightly, and soon a light layer of white frost spread all over Zhou Hongda's body.

Li Fugui was overjoyed when he saw this, because as far as he knew, this should be a symptom of awakening. He didn't expect that Zhou Hongda would start to awaken so soon.

Fu Yulang and Zhao Dongyu had obviously never seen this battle before, and they all stood there and looked at Li Fugui anxiously. After all, Li Fugui was someone who could cut the carapace off an insect.

"Some special ability is awakening in Zhou Hongda's body," Li Fugui said.

"Special ability?" Fu Yulang asked.

Li Fugui didn't bother to explain too much and looked at Zhou Hongda in front of him quietly.

Because the more Li Fugui looked at it, the more he felt something was wrong. Logically speaking, Zhou Hongda should be the one who could successfully awaken, and the awakening process would not be too difficult. However, as time went by, more and more frost spread all over Zhou Hongda's body.

Li Fugui felt something bad, Zhou Hongda showed signs of failure in awakening!

The two commanders immediately cleared an open space and placed Zhou Hongda on the ground. Li Fugui quickly took out a lot of clothes and alcohol and poured them around and lit them on fire, in an attempt to reverse Zhou Hongda's signs of failure.

But as the flames rose, Zhou Hongda's entire body was gradually surrounded by frost, almost freezing him in the ice. The surrounding flames also slowly extinguished due to the temperature.

"How could this happen?" Li Fugui frowned. He didn't understand what went wrong.

Is it possible that Zhou Hongda's original life line was changed because of his influence? This is the best explanation Li Fugui came up with. But if it is influenced by him, what is the influence?

While Li Fugui was thinking, Fu Yulang shouted softly from next to him, which made Li Fugui feel upset.

However, before Li Fugui turned around to scold the two of them, he felt a familiar burning sensation coming from his back.

"The scroll has awakened again?" Li Fugui looked up, and sure enough, the scroll had detached from the clothes layer on his back and was hovering in mid-air, emitting a faint blue light.

Li Fugui took a closer look and found that the strands of blue light seemed to come from Zhou Hongda who had been frozen into an ice sculpture. At this time, extremely thin strands of blue light were being pulled out of Zhou Hongda's body and merged into the scroll.

As the blue light was drawn out, the frost that originally covered Zhou Hongda's body receded at a speed visible to the naked eye, and soon disappeared without a trace.

There was a slight sound of breathing, and Zhou Hongda's face had returned to rosy, as if he was asleep.

The scroll returned to its original shape and slowly fell from the air, and was caught by Li Fugui.

"Is Hongda okay?" Fu Yulang and Zhao Dongyu saw that Zhou Hongda had regained his color and hurriedly came over to ask.

Li Fugui put away the scroll and was silent for a long time, then slowly exhaled and replied: "It's okay."

Just now, Li Fugui had murderous intentions. The scroll was his only trump card. The less one person knew his secret, the safer he would be. Now that the two of them knew the existence of the scroll in his hand, they were on Li Fugui's must-kill list.

However, Li Fugui thought for a long time and still did not make a move, not because the two of them were important to him, but because now was not the time.

When Zhou Hongda woke up and asked about the whereabouts of the two, Li Fugui had no reasonable explanation and would inevitably be suspected.

The best way is to let the two of them die openly.

Die in the mouth of an insect!

"Don't talk to anyone about the scroll, not anyone." Li Fugui said coldly to the two of them, "If you don't want to die, it's also good for you."

Li Fugui was not sure how long this threat would last, but it was his best way at the moment. He needed to kill the two of them as soon as possible.

Ignoring the two people's reactions, Li Fugui placed Zhou Hongda on the sofa, then re-entered the locked room, changed his clothes and placed the scroll inside.

When he came to the window, Li Fugui opened the curtains and looked at the street. At this moment, many people holding torches and lighting lamps were wandering on the street.

Li Fugui was completely sleepless, and suddenly there were many questions in his mind.

What is the reason for the scroll's awakening? The last time he woke up from the scroll, his consciousness was connected to a huge world full of blue lines. Why not this time?

Could it be that the awakening of the scroll this time was due to Zhou Hongda's awakening? Then why did the scroll wake up when Zhou Hongda was close to failing in awakening? What was the blue light extracted by the scroll?

Li Fugui felt a little dizzy. He suddenly felt that he was ignorant. Although he had lived two lives, he still knew nothing. He didn't even know about the awakened people. If the scroll does not awaken next time, he may lose an awakener as a help.

In the dark age, even a slight loss of strength may be the key to losing one's life!

A feeling of powerlessness rose from within, but it was quickly dispelled by Li Fugui. He wanted to figure out these problems, even if he probably couldn't figure them out, he still had to deal with it. He was really too afraid of death.

Lighting a cigarette, Li Fugui squinted his eyes and thought carefully in the fog. He had to clarify his thoughts one by one.

There was a faint commotion in the distance, and it was the insects that appeared.

There was a scream, and an idea suddenly appeared in Li Fugui's mind.

Why do bugs eat people? There must be some specific need! Although Li Fugui didn't know what he needed, it was definitely like a person who must eat!

Thinking about it from another angle, isn't the scroll just like a bug eating everyone? Scroll "heard" the movement in Zhou Hongda's body and woke up, and then "ate" the blue light in Zhou Hongda's body. I don't know if he ate all the blue light in Zhou Hongda's body, but he definitely "ate" it.

Since you have eaten it, there must be something extra, and there must be some kind of change in the scroll!

Thinking of this, Li Fugui quickly put out the cigarette in his hand and took out the scroll.

With the faint light of the flashlight, Li Fugui carefully examined the scroll.

However, Li Fugui found that the scroll did not seem to have any change, and tried to inject the vitality in his body into the scroll. As a result, the vitality was like a mud cow entering the sea, even if it was exhausted, there was no change.

"How could this happen?" Li Fugui was a little frustrated, lit up a cigarette again and started smoking.

In the end, what is the change?

Thinking of stopping to smoke a cigarette quickly, Li Fugui was about to close the curtains when he suddenly realized that something strange seemed to be happening inside his body.

During careful inspection, Li Fugui found that one-fifth of the energy in his body had been restored!

"Something's wrong." Li Fugui exclaimed inwardly, because according to his previous recovery speed, it was absolutely impossible to recover one-fifth of the unit of vitality in one cigarette. "Is this the change in the scroll?"

Li Fugui thought, used up all the energy in his body, and then stared at the watch in his hand.

Ten minutes later, Li Fugui truly felt that he had half a unit more vitality in his body.

"Sure enough!" A feeling of enlightenment spread from head to toe. Li Fugui hugged the scroll excitedly and almost screamed, if it weren't for the insects that might appear at any time.

After calming down, Li Fugui started the experiment again despite the strange looks from Fu Yulang and Zhao Dongyu.

After more than half an hour of testing, Li Fugui found that the scroll's ability to promote vitality recovery seemed to be only effective within a range of ten centimeters.

But this has little impact on Li Fugui. After all, the scroll is a treasure that Li Fugui never leaves.

"I understand the changes in the scroll. Could it be the energy that was eaten by the scroll?" Li Fugui thought as he put the scroll back into the mezzanine behind him.

But I don’t know why the scroll doesn’t respond to Li Fugui’s vitality. Maybe it needs energy with attributes?

But now there is no other energy for him to test, and Zhou Hongda probably won't wake up in a short time, so this problem can only be left.

Looking at Fu Yulang and Zhao Dongyu who were leaning on the sofa in a daze, Li Fugui suddenly had a bold plan.

He's going bug hunting!
