Suanyu’s expression was a little distorted, and his gray-green eyes were full of malice, but he still forced a smile: “I heard that Taotie has no brains and only knows how to eat. Now it seems that you are not as stupid as the rumors say.”
Jiang Lan squatted down, holding it down with one claw. He tore off a wing with his other claw, chewed it, and spat the feathers in its face: “Didn’t your teacher teach you that what you hear is not what you see, and that you can’t trust everything you hear?”
After thinking about it, he added earnestly, “I’m sorry, I forgot that you are an illegal resident and you probably haven’t been to school.”
“How pitiful, you have lived for thousands of years but are still illiterate.”
Suanyu: ….
He finally stopped maintaining that false and artificial gentle appearance, and stared at Jiang Lan with his six eyes, as if filled with all the malice of the world: “You have a sharp tongue.”
“It’s a pity that provocation doesn’t work on me.” His sharp eyes rolled in his eye sockets. He seemed to have thought of something and smiled happily again: “I can only tell you that he will be the one to end the human race and lead us back to the Pagan God Era.”
Suanyu struggled to flutter for a while, and there was some nostalgia in his tone: “It’s been so long, you have long forgotten the glory of the ancient times, right? The monster race is just a lowly name given by the human race. We were originally the supreme pagan gods, and the human race was just a group of ants. As long as we wanted, we could make the people of a city fall into fear and kill them at any time.”
“They crawled at my feet, screaming and wailing. That was the most beautiful sound I have ever heard.” Suanyu’s voice sounded very happy. It turned its head to look at Jiang Lan, and there seemed to be a vortex slowly spinning in its gray-green eyes: “Don’t you miss the days when you could eat people casually?”
It looked at Jiang Lan complacently, and suddenly became even happier: “Does it feel bad to not have enough to eat?”
Suanyu’s voice had a unique rhythm, and the slightly raised eyes that were fixed on Jiang Lan also had a bewitching tone.
“Thanks for your concern, I don’t miss it.”
Jiang Lan ate his two wings, then set his sights on his legs, breaking off a leg and quickly eating it. He was filled with joy. Spitting out a finger bone, Jiang Lan used his sharp claws to pierce its eyes: “Your tricks are useless to me.”
Suanyu, who had no reaction even after losing two wings and a leg, finally jumped up after having one of his eyes blinded.
“Idiots!” He sneered viciously, “It is because of idiots like you that the human race dares to ride on our heads!”
Jiang Lan gritted his teeth, feeling a little annoyed by the verbal attacks: “If you are so powerful, why don’t you go and massacre a city like in ancient times?”
He mercilessly pierced through the fig leaf[1] of Suanyu: “You miss the ancient glory so much. It’s all because you can’t do it now.”
Since Emperor Zhuanxu’s Ming Dynasty and Li Juedi Tiantong[2], the great monsters today were no longer comparable to those in ancient times. The surviving great monsters were of course still powerful, but this was relative to humans and ordinary monsters. Only the great monsters who had experienced the ancient times understood that their power was no longer comparable to that of the ancient times.
In ancient times, powerful monsters could influence the world and decide the life and death of human beings with a single breath. Once they started fighting, the earth would collapse and the sky would tear apart. Mulberry fields would turn into sea in the blink of an eye.
At that time, the whole world was an arena for the great monsters to fight against, and the cities of the human race could only be maintained with difficulty in the cracks between the great monsters.
But that was all in the past.
Nowadays, the powerful monsters could change the color of the world if they fought hard, but they had lost their ability to destroy the world like in ancient times. For a weakling like Suanyu who could only rely on mental control, he could probably only give people nightmares and torture them repeatedly to make them insane.
“You want others to do what you can’t do for you? Aren’t you more stupid?” Jiang Lan looked at him with pity: “Everything in the world has its own destiny. Going against the trend will not end well.”
He broke off another wing and waved it in front of Suanyu’s eyes: “Like being eaten by me.”
“…”
He was so jealous and angry that he lost his voice, and the remaining five eyes glared at him fiercely.
Jiang Lan spat feathers at him again and became impatient: “If you have anything more to say, I don’t want to listen.”
Suanyu: “I have already said it, but you don’t believe it.”
His eyes swirled cunningly, and his gloomy voice was filled with deep hatred: “I’m giving you a piece of advice. You should kill him now. Otherwise, the entire human race, including you, will only be sacrificed for his awakening.”
“Do you think I look stupid?”
Jiang Lan poked its eyes expressionlessly, and then ate its other two legs without getting mad: “You just said that the body is a bondage, and if I kill the person, isn’t that just what you want?”
“It seems like you’re not going to tell me anymore.” Jiang Lan ate the last wing, looked at Suanyu, who was only left with a bare body, and finally made a decision: “Let’s have roasted chicken for supper.”
Ying Qiao and Chen Hua drove into the Hongyi community. Chen Hua was still thinking about how to find clues without alerting the enemy.
Ying Qiao pointed to a residential building and said, “Over there.”
Chen Hua:?
“How do you know?”
Ying Qiao put his hands in his pockets and glanced at him contemptuously: “I saw it with my eyes.”
His expression seemed to be asking, “Are you blind if you can’t see this?”
Chen Hua cursed in his heart and looked in the direction he pointed. He took a closer look and found the problem.
“It seems that the other party is no longer satisfied with taking action one by one.”
From a distance, the building seemed to be shrouded in a thin layer of gray mist. Although the lights were on in the houses, there was an unusual silence. If you look closely, you will find that the building is in sharp contrast with the surrounding apartment buildings.
The building seemed to be isolated by gray fog.
The two walked towards the building. Just after taking two steps, they heard Ying Qiao say again: “There is a smell of blood.”
Chen Hua was shocked. His first reaction was that the other party knew that he was exposed and started killing people to vent his anger.
“Is it provoking us?”
“…” Ying Qiao turned to look at him with obvious disdain on his face: “You are so imaginative, you should write a novel.”
“It’s not human blood.”
Chen Hua felt relieved when he said it was not human blood, but he also thought unconvincedly, “I am not like you.”
Someone with a dog’s nose.
The two quickly rushed to the apartment building, and Chen Hua took a look at the building number: Building 13.
When he reached downstairs, he also smelled a faint smell of blood, which was slightly sour and definitely not human blood. The smell was coming down from the top floor.
The two took the elevator to the top floor. As soon as they reached the rooftop, they were caught off guard and ran head-on into the blood-filled Taotie.
Taotie had a strange-looking thing in its mouth, and when its scarlet vertical pupils looked over, they brought with them a pressure that could not be ignored.
Why was Taotie here?
What the hell was this luck?
They won’t start fighting just because they don’t like each other, right?
Chen Hua’s mind was filled with messages like “F**k” and “I’m so unlucky” flashing across his screen, but out of consideration for the friendship between his colleagues, he still trembled and stood behind Ying Qiao.
Prevent Ying Qiao from provoking trouble!
He looked at the thing in the mouth of Taotie for a long time, and finally recognized the identity of the other party from the six eyes on its head. It was Suanyu.
Thinking of the abnormality in Building Thirteen and looking at the half-dead figure with its four wings, three legs and two eyes all gone and its head drooping, Chen Hua vaguely understood why the other party came here.
Taotie must have also discovered that there was a problem with the community, which was why he came here before them.
Chen Hua greeted Taotie politely: “What a coincidence, you are here for a mission too? Are you planning to send Suanyu to the bureau?”
Taotie stared at him fiercely without saying a word.
Chen Hua: …
Are you so indifferent?
The rumors were indeed true, Taotie was really ferocious.
He put on a polite smile, trying to convey the meaning that he had no other intentions and just wanted to negotiate with him: “We are here to catch Suanyu. Since you have already caught him, we can send him to the bureau together. He may have accomplices behind him, so keeping him is still useful…”
Looking at Suanyu’s miserable and incomplete appearance, Chen Hua seriously suspected that Taotie was planning to eat it to fill his stomach.
But he didn’t dare to expose it. He could only remind him tactfully: even if it’s sour and inedible, it’s still useful.
He looked at the Suanyu’s sizzling blood all over him and couldn’t imagine how the Taotie had eaten the other’s wings and legs.
So cruel.
Taotie just stared at them without saying anything.
Chen Hua’s heart began to beat wildly. He started to wonder, if Taotie insisted on not handing over Suanyu, and Ying Qiao and Taotie started fighting, should he try to stop the fight or drag Suanyu away and then call to report them for fighting?
It wasn’t a difficult decision to make.
Chen Hua decided to wait for them to start fighting and then run away with Suanyu.
Then report them for fighting in the city.
After all, if you can’t beat them, you can only outsmart them!
Just when he had planned his escape route in his mind, Taotie finally moved.
Chen Hua’s heart was in a knot, and the groundhog in his heart was screaming: It’s time to take action!!!!
Amid his silent scream, Taotie threw Suanyu in front of them, then turned around and left without looking back.
Chen Hua: ???
Didn’t fight?
Just as Chen Hua and Ying Qiao were looking at each other in silence, Jiang Lan, who had just recovered from the huge shock, was also filled with screams in his heart.
He really didn’t expect that the overtime work Ying Qiao mentioned was actually an arrest! And that too Suanyu!
Ahhhhhhh he was scared to death!!!
Jiang Lan ran a long distance in a panic, looking around like a thief. After making sure that Ying Qiao and the others had not caught up with him, he found an empty alley and transformed back into human form.
He leaned against the wall, gasping for breath, his heart beating so fast that it seemed like it was going to jump out.
The moment he bumped into Ying Qiao face to face just now, he was completely stunned and couldn’t react at all. He didn’t dare to say anything when Chen Hua spoke to him, so he acted very stupidly!!
Jiang Lan felt scared and a little annoyed at the same time.
Why did he bump into Ying Qiao at this moment? He still had Suanyu’s taste in his mouth. Would Ying Qiao think he was too fierce?
Jiang Lan was dejected.
Now Ying Qiao’s impression of him was even worse.
