Chapter 46 Ghost Girl
Lu Lie knew very well that the voice was neither very beautiful nor Li Yuan nor any of the cannibal Xiao or Yang Weizhong.
Could it be that there are really people living in this empty city?
Are they indigenous people?...or, like them, the tree climber who accidentally broke here?
At the moment, everything is unknown. It is like a dangerous and unknown fog chess game. Lu Lie can't see the future clearly. All he can do is look at and take one step.
He paused at the crossroads with awesome spirit, his big eyes full of cunning turned around in his eye sockets twice, and finally he secretly pinched his fist and walked in the direction where there was a sound in small steps.
At that moment, Lu Lie had already made his own decision and went to meet the residents of this strange city for a while.
His steps were as light as a cat dance, but his skills were extremely agile. In the blink of an eye, he passed through countless street shops and came to the end of a dilapidated alley, which was also the source of the voices of women and children.
Before entering the alley, Lu Lie slowed down for a moment, as if he was hesitating. The smarter the person is, the more suspicious he is, and he is full of doubts and considerations about the decisions he has made. But Lu Lie has a courage to move forward, which is decisive and reckless, and it is this force that drives him into the alley. Because he knows that opportunities are often fleeting. If he stops here, then what information he will get next time to meet the indigenous people of this strange city, but I don’t know when I will wait.
In front of the deepest wall in the alley, Lu Lie saw a seven- or eight-year-old boy leaning against the corner of the wall, lowering his head and trembling his shoulders slightly, as if he was enduring some great pain. A woman in a cloth dressed in oil stains squatted in front of the little boy with her back facing him, her head rising and falling, and she didn't know what she was doing. The two of them were almost stuck together.
From Lu Lie's perspective, I can't see clearly what they are doing.
Is this... constantly kissing her son?
Lu Lie waited for a while, but saw that they had no intention of stopping. He had to apologize and decided to bother them for a while.
"Sorry, I'm disturbing you, two of you. I want to ask..." Lu Lie planned to have a gentlemanly opening. He greeted them with a graceful manner, and at the same time, he quietly stroked the long machete on his back. He seemed to be carelessly walking into the alley.
The little boy resisted the tears as big as pearls in the corner of his eyes and looked up at Lu Lie. At this time, Lu Lie realized that the little boy's skin had a pathological gray, which was definitely not the color of a normal person. It was the same as this city, because no one had come for too long, and was tightly wrapped in old dust, which was very dirty. Lu Lie even felt that it was not a human little boy, rather... he was more like a stone sculpture with rough workmanship and crying and moving.
Fortunately, Lu Lie has never been an appearance association. Compared to a person's appearance, he cares more about a person's spiritual aspects, such as whether they are valuable to him.
"You must be tolerant and patient, so that you can discover the beauty of others." Lu Lie cheered himself up.
The boy wiped away the tears from his eyes and said to the woman who was still squatting in front of him: "Mom, there is enough... someone is here."
The mother's back stopped twisting slightly. She, or "it", slowly twisted her neck and looked at Lu Lie at the entrance of the alley.
Although Lu Lie was already prepared, for a moment, he stopped beating his heart because of fear and tremor.
The damn woman even had raw meat bitten from her son's abdomen in the corner of her mouth, and blood flowed down from the white flesh texture, dripping blood. The woman's face was dark blue, like wearing a bronze mask, and her face was square, which made Lu Lie think of the two square-faced human sculptures guarding the door of the stone stairs before entering the tomb. There was no emotion in the woman's eyes, whether she looked at her "son" or Lu Lie, she was as cold as if she was looking at a piece of meat.
That beast - she is eating her son's meat!
The woman moved.
"Damn it!" Lu Lie roared, drew his sword to protect his body, and at the same time, a flame suddenly spit out from his mouth, suddenly facing the cannibal woman who seemed to be inhuman.
The attack under Lu Lie was very serious. The fire dragon in his chest seemed to feel Lu Lie's frightened and angry. The fierce flames instantly swallowed the entire alley.
In the firelight, the woman ignored Lu Lie for a moment. She saw her black shadow using hands and feet, which was extremely flexible. She turned over and easily crossed the wall, and disappeared into the fog in the distance like a monkey.
"Not good!" Seeing that the fire in the alley became more and more fierce, Lu Lie secretly scolded himself for being reckless.
At this time, an innocent little boy stood in the alley. Under such a hot barbecue, wouldn’t he have already made cumin barbecue by himself? Lu Lie was frightened just now and ignored everything and actually forgot about this.
With a thought, he secretly used the power of the ice python and summoned a cold current from his mouth. As the cold air rushed, thin ice instantly formed on the three walls of the small alley, and the flames that were burning before instantly lost their arrogance.
At the same time, two conflicting forces were used, and Lu Lie felt dizzy and weak, almost unable to stand firm.
He held back his dizziness and looked deep into the alley. The poor little boy who was swallowed by his mother was still standing in the alley. Although he was not invaded by the fire, he saw that one-third of his chest and left arm had been eaten up, and his belly was also empty. Blood and white powder flowed all over the ground along the tubes of his trouser legs. The sausage of small and small meat sausage that was sparse and unknown to him hung upside down on the ground. It was simply terrible. Even if a person without medical knowledge saw it, he knew that he would definitely not be able to survive.
"Are you... okay?"
As soon as Lu Lie said this, he wanted to slap himself a big mouth. He was so scared that he was still fucking asking if he was in trouble? Shouldn't he ask him what he had to die before he was about to die?
Lu Lie then walked up half a step and changed his words, "You... it hurts a lot. Do you want me to help you get rid of it? Just a knife, very quickly." He raised the long machete in his hand.
The little boy was very well-behaved: "Brother, you are a traveler from outside. Don't worry about me. But you should find a way to leave here as soon as possible. If the traveler from outside stays in this city for a long time, something terrible will happen."
Lu Lie thought, and he stared at the little boy's eyes without pupils and threw a lot of questions: "Tell my brother, what's going on in this city. Why did your mother look like this, where did the rest of the city go?"
Hearing Lu Lei say this, the little boy suddenly showed an extremely frightened expression on his face, which was like Lu Lie putting his feet into the tiger's mouth. His whole face was twisted, his teeth creaked and fighting up and down, and he half-squatted on the ground and hugged his head (this action accelerated the speed of his intestines falling out), shouting in an extremely scared voice: "I don't know...please, let me go... I really don't know! I don't know anything!"
