Devil

Chapter 55: leave

Views:

When grandpa woke up again, Jihuan told grandpa of his decision.

The horned monster raised his head with difficulty, his eyes seemed to be covered with a gray film, and he seemed to be asking, "Little Hua'er, are you not going to college?"

Ji Huan was silent for a moment, then put the black egg in front of him, the black egg rolled into Grandpa's arms at once, and stuffed a piece of green candy into Grandpa's mouth. I didn't taste anything. In the end, Ji Huan found out and peeled off the candy wrapper. Only then did Grandpa taste the sweetness of the candy.

Nestled in Grandpa's neck, the black egg laughed.

"Grandpa, don't worry, he shouldn't lie to us, and we... have nothing for him to lie to." Knowing Grandpa's worries, Ji Huan whispered.

"Yesterday he also signed an oath with me, he said he would not hurt our family."

"Besides, he also said that he would provide us with a place to live there. The level of monsters around is similar to that of Grandpa. Grandpa, you need to get better as soon as possible. Then we will have to rely on Grandpa." Tell the grandfather the information about "that world" that I got from A Jin in the past few days, and Ji Huan also told it to myself.

Knowing nothing about "another world", the weak horned monster could only lick two cubs in the end.

But from the beginning of this day, he consciously ate a little more, and when he got there, he had to protect his grandson and great-grandson.

Putting the black egg in Grandpa's room, Ji Huan went outside and got busy.

When he said it, he really started to fulfill his promise and started to take good care of A Jin.

In his opinion, his family was rescued by A Jin, not to mention saving people, but also arranging where to go in the future, he felt that he should repay the other party. After making tea and cleaning the tea set every day, after realizing that the food he made was still in line with A Jin's taste, Ji Huan simply prepared a portion for A Jin every time he cooked, which was more particular than Grandpa's big pot rice, and the other party would eat some occasionally. Most of the time, he doesn't touch it at all, and even so, he has never been short of the side dishes brought to Ah Jin's side;

In addition, Jihuan also took the initiative to undertake all the cleaning work in the house. Before so many people here only served Ajin alone, now that all those people have withdrawn, Jihuan took the initiative to take over the work. , Fortunately, he doesn't have to worry about the entire house, he is only responsible for the small courtyard where they live.

Ah Jin didn't say anything, but it seemed that he was satisfied with what he did.

Jihuan then worked harder.

Grandpa got better day by day, the wounds on his body began to heal slowly, and he could even turn into a humanoid for a while every day!

Contrary to Grandpa's situation, it is Ajin who is getting weaker and weaker.

Tea leaves can't cover up the rancid smell of him.

At the same time, the movement of the monsters outside the small courtyard grew louder.

Grandpa and Heidan were very nervous. Suddenly, Jihuan and Ajin were the most calm people in the whole yard.

"Let's go out together today." On this day, when Jihuan went out for a routine shopping, Ajin suddenly lowered his eyes and said, "You all go, although the injury of Karas is not completely healed, he is still stronger than you. You can go together and carry more things."

"Whatever you want to bring along and buy it today, after today, you can't go out."

It was only then that Ji Huan realized: Before she knew it, today was the penultimate day of the twenty-eight days!

Suddenly opening his eyes, Ah Jin stretched out his hand, and there were two more bank cards between his two fingers: "Take this and use it."

Meeting A Jin's eyes, Ji Huan was stunned. After a while, he took two cards from the other party's hand: "A Jin, is there anything you want me to bring?"

Ajin glanced at him quietly: "No need, but..."

"You must come back before ten o'clock in the evening. After this time, don't come back."

"...Goodbye." After packing up the necessary things and carrying the black egg on his back, Ji Huan said goodbye to A Jin as usual.

But this time, Ah Jin didn't say goodbye to him, just smiled lightly, and then closed his eyes again.

Ji Huan thought, maybe A Jin meant to give him the last chance to leave.

If you want to stay in the human world, that's fine. Now that the three of them have left, it's fine to continue to leave. Ajin also gave them three bank cards;

If you still decide to go with him, then come back within the time limit.

For some reason, Jihuan had a hunch: the so-called twenty-eight days was actually the day A Jin left.

If nothing else, today is their last day here.

With Grandpa and Heidan, Ji Huan used the fastest speed to go to the next town to buy the necessary supplies in his heart. Realizing that today was the last day, he didn't buy a lot of Grandpa's food, but bought the necessities of life after going to a new place that he had been thinking about for a long time. He thought very carefully. He had prepared some needles, threads, and various standing medicines, and then there were the things of the black eggs. The two masters invariably left the bulk of the necessary items to the black eggs. In addition to milk powder, calcium tablets, rice noodles, etc., since I don't know if there are chickens there, Jihuan simply bought a basket of chickens. The farm eggs in a small place are not big, and they are delicious at first glance.

Since they made plans on the way, it didn't take much time to buy these things, and it was still too early to return to Bade Town, so they decided to walk in Bade Town for the last time.

Carrying a large bag and a small bag, Jihuan held a black egg, and walked with the grandfather on the deserted road in Bade Town.

Once the town that was not prosperous but also lively once lost its people, it quickly declined.

The surroundings were quiet, only the sound of Jihuan's footsteps.

Grandpa has no footsteps.

Click, click.

"Xiao Hua'er, why don't we leave?" Grandpa suddenly said, "That big monster deliberately asked the three of us to leave together today?"

Grandpa is not confused at all.

Click, click, it was the sound of Jihuan's footsteps continuing to move forward.

Then, the footsteps stopped suddenly, and Ji Huan suddenly spoke:

"Grandpa, I thought about it for a while. It's the first time we've grown up together, right?"

The horned monster was stunned.

"It's also the first time I walked on the street with a black egg openly."

"I want you to be able to walk on the road openly in the future, that's all."

"So, I'm going."

The horned monster was stunned again, he lowered his head for a while, and finally raised his head and said, "Then let's go together."

Then, smiles appeared on the faces of the two of them. I didn't understand why grandpa and uncle laughed, and the black egg laughed too.

The hour hand has already pointed to "ten", and the minute hand will reach the "twelve" position in five minutes. It is almost ten o'clock. However, the grandparents and grandchildren have not returned yet, and A Jin is lying on the big bed in the bedroom. , squinted.

In the end, he was left alone.

The corner of his mouth rose slightly, and just as he was about to close his eyes, the sliding door of the bedroom was suddenly pulled open, and a monster with horns rushed in with a young boy on his back! In addition to the boy on his shoulder, he also has... a pig in his left arm

"Sorry! Because we came back very early, we went to our old home to pack up the relics. When we were planning to come back, we found Dabai on the mountain... This is my pig. Excuse me, can I bring a pig?" Putting it down, Jihuan began to explain, pointing to the big white pig who was tied by a rope around his neck and obediently following his legs, he said a little embarrassedly: "We didn't buy too many things, I don't know if there are three people plus a pig ...Ajin, are you moving your back..."

Ajin: ... Emotionally, did he think he was going to another world behind their family

Ji Huan's words suddenly stopped, and he noticed: At this moment, A Jin's face was very bad.

Although his face has always been pale, he has never been so full of life as he is now.

Just when Ji Huan was uneasy, he saw A Jin suddenly smile.

Instead of the usual smile, he laughed so hard that he coughed up bloody carrion.

"Don't worry, I'm fine." Taking out a handkerchief from under the pillow, Ah Jin gently wiped the blood from the corner of her mouth.

But... you don't look very good - Jihuan's expression clearly says that.

Just when he was hesitant, Ah Jin suddenly pointed to the corridor in front of him: "Whatever you want to take away, put it on the floor of the corridor in front of my bedroom. Be careful, it must be placed in the one you usually clean up. Nowhere else on that corridor floor."

He was no stranger to the place he had cleaned up for a few months, Ji Huan glanced at A Jin, then walked to the designated area with his grandfather, Hei Dan, and Da Bai with the other hand. Let Grandpa lead Dabai to stand. He went to the next room a few times. After a while, he packed up a few big bags and put them away. Ji Huan stood beside Grandpa and didn't move. .

"Okay, stay there, you can sit down, and then don't move." Pointing to the floor of the corridor, Ah Jin emphasized again: "From now on, don't leave the place under your feet, and don't let anything happen. leave."

"Okay, now, you can close the sliding door." Said softly, Ajin closed her eyes.

Ji Huan closed the door for him as he said, and the inside and outside of the house were immediately separated into two worlds.

One light, one dark.

There was no light in the house, and there was only a faint light in Ah Jin's bedroom.

In the cool corridor, the horned monster turned into a prototype, holding his grandson and great-grandson tightly in his arms. He also used his tail to hook the family's property: a few big burdens and a big white pig.

With his eyes fixed on the electronic watch on his wrist, Jihuan counted down.

He knew: it was time to leave.

got windy-

Ji Huan noticed that Grandpa's drooping beard suddenly fluttered, and he moved his gaze from the dial of the electronic watch to the front. Ji Huan found that the leaves of the trees in the yard suddenly swayed slightly.

First a soft rustling, then a violent shaking!

The calm water surface of the pool suddenly vibrated with ripples, and Ji Huan immediately felt the floor under him tremble.

Grandpa's claws surrounding him were even harder, and the small body of the black egg buried in his arms also trembled slightly.

coming-

With a shock in his heart, Ji Huan immediately regained his energy.

He instinctively looked up.

He was a human, and he should have seen nothing, but at that moment, he suddenly raised his head, he knew: something jumped in from outside.

really-

With a loud cracking sound, the roof above Jihuan's head suddenly shattered! at the same time-

"Crack"!

Accompanied by a damp muffled sound, the smell of rust filled with stench came through from the room.

Jihuan turned his head from under Grandpa's next door in horror. At some point, two shadows were projected on the blank paper door. One was thin and looked like a human being, while the other was quite huge. The claws tightly shackled the human under him, and the shadow of the huge head clinged to the shadow of the human, and it bit him!

Ji Huan's slender eyes suddenly widened!

The huge shadow gnawed at the body of the human under him, and the human was completely motionless, as if it were dead...

However, just at this moment, when Ji Huan didn't know if he wanted to rush in or what he could do, an unexpected thing happened: the head of the monster suddenly disappeared!

A black liquid slammed on the paper door in front of Ji Huan, and was startled. Ji Huan watched the huge shadow disappear little by little...

It wasn't the kind of disappearing that turned into black ashes. It was like being eaten. Accompanied by the decomposing sound of wetness that made the scalp numb, the body of the monster disappeared little by little.

Just after it disappeared, under it, a thin, human shadow suddenly sat up.

Ajin——

Ji Huan forgot to turn his head.

Before he could wake up, with the sound of the other half of the roof collapsing, another huge monster broke in from the outside, and then the third and fourth...

Just as more and more monsters were pouring in, the land where Jihuan was located began to shake violently. He heard the sound of the land cracking, and the ground began to sink!

wrong! The ground is really sinking!

At this moment, Ji Huan found that the surroundings suddenly lit up. It was not a lamp. Ji Huan had no idea what the light was coming from. The lights lit up at the same time. It is a complex pattern that lights up from all sides of the house, and when they rise, they are no longer just spots of light. Light curtain! They form a block of light curtains!

Not only limited to the small red-walled courtyard where he is now, but a larger area, separated by a distant wall, a huge light curtain shrouded the entire courtyard!

Invisible giant monsters appeared in these light curtains one after another. They howled in pain and flew towards Ah Jin's bedroom behind Ji Huan.

No... It may not be appropriate to say "fly", "suck", they are "sucked".

The entire courtyard was like a huge light array, and A Jin's bedroom behind it was the "eye of the array". Those monsters who had been waiting outside the light array for a long time were "sucked" into A Jin's room.

Ji Huan felt that he heard a howl.

Huge and painful...

The grandpa who was holding him trembled uncontrollably, Jihuan hugged the grandpa's arm tightly with his backhand, comforting him silently.

No matter how big the bedroom is, it can't hold these many monsters. It didn't take long for the room behind Ji Huan to finally reach its limit.

Countless monsters wailed, and their heads were still howling, but their bodies had long been dismembered and floated in the room. As the bodies disappeared one by one, Ji Huan immediately realized that they were being "eaten".

This is the most brutal eating scene Jihuan has ever seen.

The black egg in his arms and the grandfather on his body both closed their eyes tightly, Dabai had already fainted, Ji Huan thought that he would not be able to hold on, but the fact was that he persevered without blinking. , he witnessed the invisible creature in the air eating the last monster.

The last drop of blood dripped from the air, and Ji Huan knew that the creature had finished eating.

A powerful coercion enveloped him!

Staring in a certain direction in the room, Jihuan didn't move.

He couldn't hear the other side's footsteps, however, he knew that the other side was walking towards him.

One step, two steps, three steps...

A cold palm suddenly placed on his shoulder, Jihuan raised his head with a pale face, and he saw A Jin's face suddenly slowly appeared in the air.

His body was clean, and there was not even a trace of blood. Ah Jin walked towards him naked. All the rotten flesh on his body had grown. Although he was extremely thin, he looked no different from a normal person now.

However, at this moment, A Jin gave Ji Huan the idea of "this is not human" for the first time.

Before, even if A Jin himself admitted that he is a monster, in Jihuan's view, A Jin still looks like a human, until now.

With amazing aura all over his body, Ajin grabbed Jihuan's wrist and stared straight at him with dark eyes:

"I kept you waiting, now, we can leave."
