If I were to tell it in the storytelling style, it would be that it happened in a flash. It's not as exaggerated as in the book, but it was still very thrilling. Meng Yi's nails were five centimeters long. He stabbed straight at my face. If he had hit me at that time, I think I would have been dead. Fortunately, Li Shigao also arrived at that time. Li Shigao chopped at Meng Yi's hand with a sword, causing Meng Yi's hand to tremble and stabbed my right shoulder. I gritted my teeth and endured the severe pain, raised the Jiangchen Sword, and stabbed it towards Meng Yi's chest. Of course, I didn't hit him that time. Meng Yi also took two steps back, then looked at me and Li Shigao and said, "You two are well prepared."
Meng Yi looked at Li Shigao and then at me and said: "You two should leave us right now and we will let you go. If you two don't know what's best for you, don't blame me" (:)
As soon as I heard this, I looked Meng Yi up and down. This was not his style. In the past, with his arrogant personality, he would definitely fight us without hesitation. Now he is actually discussing with me. It's strange. As the saying goes, good things must be abnormal. My brain was working quickly at the time, and I figured it out after a while. He must have come here for something important. This thing should be related to this mangrove village. He doesn't want their plans to fail because of my affairs with Li Shigao.
I thought about it and it seems that this is the only reason that can explain why he suddenly let us go.
Li Shigao probably thought of something, and said with a smile to Meng Yi: "It's easy for us to leave. Hand over the Rotating Stone and we'll leave immediately. Otherwise, no matter what plans you have here, I will definitely find a way to disrupt you." Li Shigao and I, as well as Meng Yi and the old man from Taiping Dao, confronted each other.
"Meng Yi, who let them go? Li Shigao can go, but the one called Wu Jiu must leave me alone. I will avenge my son's death." Unexpectedly, before Meng Yi spoke, the old man next to him started yelling. When I heard it, I frowned and shouted, "Damn it, your son stole my wife and he deserved to die. I still regret killing him with a single blow, which would have freed him. If I had known, I would have chopped him a dozen more times." I'm not a psychopath. I just wanted to provoke this old man because I found that when people are impulsive, they will act without thinking and their IQ will plummet. When he runs over, I can use the Jiang Chen Sword to knock him out with a mountain-shattering and earth-splitting slash.
Sure enough, the old man's eyes turned red when I provoked him like this. He looked at me and yelled, "Beast!" But this old man was really patient and could actually hold back.
Meng Yi also frowned slightly and whispered something in the old man's ear. The old man suddenly became quiet. Meng Yi looked at me and said with a smile, "Wu Jiu, right? I'm not exaggerating. We are sure to keep you and Li Shigao here, but we will suffer some damage. So it's better for us not to fight now. We can talk about it later if we have any grudges."
"Absolutely sure." I frowned. I don't know why Meng Yi is so confident. In terms of strength, Li Shigao can definitely suppress him. After all, Li Shigao had beaten Hanba and made him flee. As for the old man next to him, he was just slashed by my sword and now looks very weak. His blood is flowing like tap water. If time goes on, he will probably die without our help. Why is he so confident? Meng Yi couldn't be bragging when he said this. After all, he is different from us modern people. He is a very traditional person. At least he doesn't brag.
"I'm sure you're just bragging," Li Shigao shouted directly.
Meng Yi sneered and turned to say something to the old man. The old man also smiled grimly and then yelled: "Xiao Qian, come out and show them your strength."
I was stunned when I heard Xiaoqian's words. As soon as the old man finished speaking, a figure walked in from outside the door. It was Empress Qianmu. When Empress Qianmu saw me, she opened her mouth as if she wanted to say something, but she didn't say anything. When Meng Yi saw Empress Qianmu coming in, he said arrogantly, "See, this is the capital we have to destroy you. Empress Qianmu already has a hundred eyes and her strength is not inferior to mine. Do you think we can destroy you all?"
"Under normal circumstances, we would really be wiped out by you guys." I coughed. I knew in my heart that based on Empress Qianmu's performance in the past few days, she would definitely not attack me, so a big stone fell from my heart. Instead, I was thinking about whether I should ask Qianmu to directly attack Meng Yi.
"One hundred human eyes." Li Shigao seemed to be startled. He looked up and down at the Thousand-Eyed Lady and said, "Meng Yi, do you know what you are doing? The Thousand-Eyed Lady is an evil creature that is full of resentment towards humans. She is different from zombies like you. If you give her eyes again in the future and you can't control her, many people will die."
"I know." Meng Yi nodded. "But so what? I am no longer a human being, but you humans, my former kind, are deliberately trying to get rid of me. Am I wrong? Is there anything wrong with zombie monsters like us? It's just that you have mastered a power stronger than humans, so you are afraid of us. You are afraid and define us as monsters and evil things, so you want to get rid of us. Why do you want me dead everywhere? I am still considering the lives of you humans."
I was stunned when I heard it. Indeed, we always say that these monsters are bad, but it is only us humans who are afraid of them. For example, the Thousand-Eyed Lady is an example. She was harmed by a monster. After all, this monster is also a human being. If she doesn't hate people, it's strange for us humans who are born as human beings. When ghosts harm people, we feel that ghosts are scary, but we have never thought about why ghosts harm people. Anyway, as far as I know, ghosts will not harm people for no reason. Just like the old saying goes, if you don't do bad things in your life, you won't be afraid of ghosts knocking on your door in the middle of the night.
Although I used to think this sentence was just pretentious, but now I think about it carefully, it does make sense. There is no cruelty without reason, and there is no love without reason. It seems that Meng Yi has experienced a lot after becoming a zombie, and he is not as cool as I thought. I remember that he was quite polite when he first became a zombie in Harbin. Now he seems to be quite resentful towards humans (:)
