Li Chenguang was having a rough day today.
He was kept until 11 o'clock and had to clean up after finishing the work before he was allowed to come back.
The boss stood aside with his hands folded, watching him clean and not allowing him to be lazy.
Thinking about it, he brought it on himself. Li Chenguang was late for two days in a row, and he was late for a long time.
Today I made up for the two days of being late.
After making up the amount, there will be no deduction from wages.
Li Chenguang found that he had misunderstood the owner of this fast food restaurant before. He only thought that he looked vicious, had a loud voice, and often cursed people.
Extremely vicious and evil.
It wasn't until I started working in other classes that I realized that those people who smile at you on the surface are even scarier, especially the other bosses behind you who will deduct your salary at every turn, eager to let you work in vain every day.
Wherever you can make up for overtime, your wages will not be deducted.
This boss has a ferocious face, but he seems to be a good person at heart.
Although he worked overtime for a long time and was scolded, Li Chenguang was very happy because his salary was not deducted.
By the way, I also got a lot of fried chicken nuggets, chicken wings, and chicken legs left in the store, plus a Coke, which was another happy dinner for free.
The boss won't count his money and let him eat whatever he wants.
Thinking about being able to show off such a big glass of fat house happy water when I go back, I feel better both physically and mentally.
Feeling great.
You say lose weight?
Of course, you can only lose weight when you are full. You have been practicing for so long a day, so it is not too much to eat something to comfort yourself.
If you don't eat enough, you won't have the energy to lose weight.
The road at night is very dark, and the voices at night are very quiet.
Li Chenguang was walking along the desolate streets of old and dilapidated houses that were dimly lit at that time, thinking that he would have to chill the Coke when he went back. He would go to the top floor to practice the exercises first, then take a shower, and drink fried chicken and Coke. Wonderful Little Yellow Network, ah, no, delete the small website.
He is a serious person.
It wasn't too comfortable at all, it was his favorite day in college.
While thinking about it, I suddenly felt some energy fluctuations from the wind.
Li Chenguang frowned, what was going on with the people here.
The same goes for the people I saw in the shopping mall last time, and the same goes for Jiangnan University this afternoon. The battles are all about showing off what can be discovered at will.
Because Meng Zhang had taught Li Chenguang that if he could hide, he must hide all his energy fluctuations to prevent others from discovering him.
Even in battle, it can prevent the opponent from seeing through your moves and strength.
Unless it's a big war, like the last battle between humans and dragons, that can't be completely hidden, then don't worry about it.
Therefore, he has long developed a good habit of hiding his energy as much as possible. For example, when he saved Gardenia, he hid Ning's energy.
Don't let others feel it.
And the energy he feels now is not strong, just like the fragrance of rice flowers drifting in the wind, which can be easily disappeared.
But thinking about the last time the man in the shopping mall was so arrogant that he attached his hand to his leg and walked around in broad daylight, it doesn’t seem strange anymore.
There are a few cultivators who like to show off their abilities, which is not unacceptable.
It has nothing to do with me anyway.
He believed that Li Shuang's sudden appearance here a thousand years later must be the key clue to break the situation.
Li Chenguang took a few more steps, suddenly frowned, and heard several slight "help" sounds.
The voice was very soft and a little hoarse, like the last call before the fire of life went out.
Extremely slight.
But it seemed particularly harsh in the silent and dark night...
…
…
Yin Ruosheng's whole body was pinched by the neck and hung in mid-air.
She tried her best to reach out and take out the anti-wolf spray from her bag and spray it on the opponent's face in an attempt to save herself.
She can only rely on herself.
It was like this before and it will be like this in the future.
But it didn't work at all.
Nothing works.
With a "clang", the anti-wolf spray fell to the ground.
Her weak hands grabbed Xinhui's arm holding her neck, beating it as hard as she could, and kicking her legs as hard as she could.
But her power is too weak.
Consciousness has gradually become blurred.
In his sight, Xin Hui stuck out his big tongue and licked the edge of his lips. His big scary eyes were glowing red, staring greedily at his expression.
She didn't realize what happened, nor did she understand who the person in front of her was.
cos?
abnormal?
monster?
Consciousness has gradually left me.
She was almost out of breath.
This is a dream.
This must be a dream.
Seeing this weird and common-sense reality in front of her, the hot breath from the mouth of the guy with dragon scales breathed onto her face.
Ah, this is not a dream.
This is the cruel reality.
She didn't know what she had done wrong, whether she should have gone to work in a bar so that she would not have encountered this kind of thing, or whether she should have just pretended not to hear the man calling for help and just walked over, so that she might not have encountered this kind of thing. Such danger.
Is this the fate I deserve?
She went through it in her mind, trying to imagine someone who could save her.
dad?
Mother?
elder brother?
Ha, that's really ridiculous.
Just thinking about it, I knew that even if they were here, they would have left me and run away long ago.
The only thing cooler than money is family affection.
Suddenly I felt that it was okay to die like this, and it seemed easier.
No need to live so tiringly.
Although I still don’t understand anything, I can rest now.
The strength in Yin Ruosheng's hands gradually weakened, her struggling legs gradually became weak, and her consciousness began to blur.
Drowsily, out of the corner of her eye, she seemed to see a figure running quickly...
Xinhui stared at the woman in his hand with a pair of glowing eyes, stretched out his tongue and licked around his lips, and said greedily, "You smell delicious. It turns out that women are much better than men."
Just let me eat you.
Xinhui opened his mouth and bit Yin Ruosheng.
However, a plastic bag was thrown from a distance, along with fried chicken wings, fried chicken legs, and a cup of Coke, and smashed into his open and bloody mouth, stuffing him full.
Before Xinhui could react, a flying kick hit him in the cheek, sending his entire body flying and sliding on the ground for more than ten meters, hitting a wire pole behind him.
Li Chen condensed his energy into his legs and rushed over. He kicked Fei Xinhui and stretched out his hand to hug Yin Ruosheng.
I couldn't see clearly from a distance just now, but now that I'm holding her in my arms, I realize that the clothes are inexplicably familiar.
He was wearing a gray woolen coat, carrying a white cheap shoulder bag, a peaked cap on his head, and a mask on his mouth.
Li Chenguang gently took off her peaked cap and recognized her without even taking off her mask.
Because in her previous life, she had met Yin Ruosheng by chance at the door, in the corridor, and on the way to rent a house on countless nights.
Yin Ruosheng always dresses like this, wrapping herself tightly.
At that time, he guessed that the other party was ugly and had low self-esteem, so he dressed up and didn't want to see anyone.
Just like myself.
Although Li Chenguang was timid, had low self-esteem, and was cowardly at that time, because he was worried that Yin Ruosheng, a girl, would encounter perverts, perverts, etc. when she always came home so late, he secretly followed her and wanted to protect her.
He still remembered that at that time, Yin Ruosheng was very angry and told himself solemnly that she was very grateful to him for worrying about her and protecting her, but she didn't like being followed, which made her even more scared, and she hoped she wouldn't do this again in the future.
Yes, I spent countless nights watching her walk by dressed like this.
She has worn this dress for five years without changing it.
I always watched her walking through deserted streets, watching her fearfully avoid wild dogs on the roadside, vigilantly avoid drunkards passing by, and stand on the cold streets with falling snow in winter, selling food on her bicycle. The grandfather who was returning from the roasted sweet potato stall walked behind the tricycle and followed him for a while, just to smell more of the tempting aroma of roasted sweet potatoes.
Even if the other party noticed the expectation in her eyes, stopped the car and called her, saying, "Girl, the stall is closed, I'll sell it to you cheaper," she would just smile and shake her head in the end, saying, "Uncle, I'm not hungry."
On that cold winter night that could freeze one's body, she looked at the small vendors on the left and right sides of the street. They always walked by quickly with their heads lowered. Her hands with fingerless gloves were placed next to her cheeks that were red from the cold. Warm your palms with the heat from your mouth.
Occasionally, if I buy a sausage or something, half of it will be given away because of stray cats on the street.
Li Chenguang is really familiar with these.
Her every move.
Because I've seen it so many times.
He liked it so much, and it made his heart beat so much.
Memories that had obviously been swept into the trash heap of my mind long ago appeared one after another for some unknown reason.
Oh, it's so uncomfortable.
The only experience of being rejected was recalled again, and I couldn't forget it even if I wanted to.
Li Chenguang originally thought that if he entered the secret realm again this time, he would never disturb her. As long as he solved Gardenia's puzzle, he would be able to leave the secret realm and return to reality.
But who would have thought that fate would bring us here again.
Li Chenguang is by no means a person who pesters endlessly. He can understand that the other party looks down on him and rejects him.
But when those sour, painful, and slightly confused and throbbing memories surfaced, I still couldn't bear it.
Her feelings for the woman in her arms were too complicated.
Of course, when he heard the news of her death, he still remembered the last phone call he made to him, but he didn't answer it, and then he lay in his room and cried inconsolably.
Why? I have almost eaten up my memory. Why do I still remember these things?
You might as well eat them all.
Just thinking about it makes me so heartbroken that I can't breathe.
But, only at this moment.
Only at this moment, the softness and warmth of that delicate body lying quietly in his arms with his eyes closed were real.
So true.
She is alive and well.
Lying here quietly as if asleep.
Li Chenguang was holding the most exquisite piece of art, not daring to move for fear of waking her up or breaking her.
I always feel that she is that bright color in the dream, and if she moves, she will disappear like the moon in the mirror.
While thinking, Xinhui's voice sounded from the front.
"Who is so brave? You actually dare to interrupt my meal. I think you don't want to live anymore, you little human being."
In the silent night, Xinhui's hoarse and sharp voice brought Li Chenguang's thoughts back to reality from the distant past.
The huge black palm print on Yin Ruosheng's snow-white neck was like a ball of flame, igniting the long-lost anger in Li Chenguang's heart.
I didn't receive a call last time.
This time, I almost didn't save him.
Just a little bit closer.
Li Chenguang raised his eyes, which were dark and cold, like frost rising from the Nine Netherland, and hit Xinhui's face.
He opened his mouth and breathed out some hot air, "Dragon man."
"Humanity!"
Xinhui licked his blood-covered lips and showed a cruel expression, "Do you also want me to eat you?"
Li Chenguang's dark eyes seemed to have no focus, and he stared at Xinhui expressionlessly, "Is she the one you want to eat?"
"Don't worry, she will eat you after I finish eating."
Xinhui smiled sharply like a drake, "You, a despicable human being, dare to hurt me. You will soon understand what mistake you have made."
He stretched out his hand to wipe the scars on his face, and he spit out the fried chicken, grilled wings, and Coke that had just been stuffed into his mouth on the ground next to him.
Really, what a disgusting smell.
"I want to keep you alive and eat you bite by bite. This is such a good place. This is simply the slaughterhouse of our dragon clan. I like it so much."
"Yeah."
Li Chenguang dodged and came to the telephone pole on the street next to him. He put down Yin Ruosheng in his arms and let her lean against the telephone pole.
Then, he instantly closed the distance of tens of meters between him and Xinhui.
Suddenly there was only a dozen meters between them.
He tilted his head slightly, his vision was dark and terrifying, and a smile that was colder than winter ice and snow appeared on the corner of his mouth, "Come on, let's try and see who eats whom."
The unwillingness he felt many years ago was turning into a raging fire burning in his heart.
Although Yin Ruosheng rejected him, she did so decently and saved him face.
That's not even a confession.
Li Chenguang didn't dislike her, or hate her.
He only hated himself for being incompetent, humble and cowardly. On that rainy night, he nodded and bent down while listening to the manager's scolding, and then ran to work overtime until 1 in the morning.
As a result, he missed Yin Ruosheng's call.
She made three calls in a row.
That would likely be her last call for help.
However, being weak and incompetent, he failed to save her.
The reluctance, the anger towards oneself, the anger that has nowhere to vent, are pouring out from the bottom of my heart.
Li Chenguang didn't notice that the ancient fire that was beyond his control also gathered in his eyes along with the anger he was filled with.
In those eyes, there were two dark flames burning.
Xinhui couldn't feel the energy fluctuations in Li Chenguang's body, and he didn't think how powerful Li Chenguang was.
"Heh, you seem to be able to cultivate energy, but so what, humans are too weak!"
Xinhui stuck out his tongue and laughed unscrupulously, "Today you took advantage of the large number of people and managed to sneak up on me, giving you a slight upper hand. But I, this time is different. I'm full." "
"I'm not only full, I've also absorbed a lot of energy here. Wow, hahahaha, it's great here, it's great, there's so much energy in the world, it's simply a paradise for cultivation. No one can stop me." ”
"I, my uncle, will take one of yours apart first..."
Before Xinhui could finish his words, a heavy punch had already landed on his face. The huge energy poured down and made his whole body unbalanced.
As if being crushed by a meteorite, it hit the floor with a "boom".
A deep hole was made.
Huge noises echoed on this silent road.
The lingering sound lingers in my ears.
"Ah!"
Xinhui spat out a few mouthfuls of blood and stared blankly at Li Chenguang's legs in front of him, "What happened? Why did I lie down? I seemed to have been hit by something just now?"
Is it an illusion?
