I don't know how long passed like this, but when they were sleeping soundly, a thunder suddenly rang out, scaring the two of them from their sleep almost at the same time. Gu Jing rubbed her eyes and saw that there were about three candles left in the hole. one part.
"Master, the thunder was so loud that it woke us all up."
Xiao Li also rubbed his sleepy eyes and said, suddenly a bolt of lightning pierced the sky, illuminating the cave as bright as day. Then several thunders of "Boom...Boom..." came, shaking their ears.
There was a buzzing sound, as if the whole cave was shaking.
Just as the thunder passed, another bolt of lightning came, and suddenly a "squeak...squeak" sound came from behind. They couldn't help but look back and saw that the stone door just a few meters away from them was moving slowly. They were frightened.
Cold sweat broke out on both of their backs. "Sir, what's going on? This..." Xiao Li's voice was hoarse. When he used the weak candlelight to illuminate the entire cave, he saw a dark figure in the door.
Gu Jing finally saw the black figure and walked out slowly. No! He was not walking. The man was actually hanging in the air. His feet did not move at all, and he just floated in front of them.
At this time, the two of them were stunned. Who had ever seen a person floating in the air?
"You...are you a human or a ghost?" Gu Jing said tremblingly, and the corner of the man's mouth twitched: "What do you think?"
At this time, a bolt of lightning struck down again, and he suddenly noticed that the strange man had a shadow. He remembered that ghosts have no shadow, so he said: "Senior is a human being, he must be an expert who hides from the world..."
"Yes...yes...Senior, you are human!" Xiao Li shouted hurriedly next to him.
The weird man sneered and said: "Finally you are right. I haven't been out here for more than thirty years, and I haven't eaten for thirty years. I didn't expect that two little babies came to my door just after I came out of seclusion today."
Yes, hahaha!"
Then he said: "Although I am a human, I love to eat human flesh the most. Human flesh is the best in the world. You two should consider who I will eat first!" Gu Jingji and Xiao Li in front of him were already stunned.
I was so stunned that I didn’t know anything anymore.
When the weirdo saw that they didn't answer, he yelled so hard that the whole cave shook: "Boy, did you hear what I just said?"
"Senior, I didn't hear you clearly just now, can you say it again?" Gu Jing said immediately, and the weirdo said what he just said again. Gu Jingji and Xiao Li started sweating before they finished listening, and their faces lost all color.
The two of them were stunned for a while, and the weird man looked at their expressions, and a smile appeared on his face, but Gu Jing and the other two were too immersed in fear to notice.
When the weirdo saw Gu Jing and Xiao Li, he was frightened and didn't care.
Gu Jing's face was pale, without any blood. He lowered his head, and his eyes changed from panic at the beginning to hesitation.
Xiao Li was already shaking with fear, his face was full of fear, his eyes were looking at the weirdo, and all he could see in his eyes was fear.
At this time, Gu Jing gritted her teeth, raised her head suddenly, and looked at the weirdo. At this time, there was no hesitation in his eyes, replaced by perseverance.
He looked at the weirdo and said, "Senior, please eat me and let him go!" He pointed at Xiao Li.
The weirdo had a sneer on his lips and stared at Gu Jingji with a sharp look as if he wanted to kill him.
Gu Jing met the strange man's gaze and looked at him. They looked at each other for a while, and Gu Jing realized that she was not as scared as she was at first. If a person is not even afraid of death, what else would he be afraid of? What could be worse than that?
What's more terrible than death?
At this time, Xiao Li was still in a daze, unaware that his fate had been decided, and he was still trembling.
Suddenly a strange man said, "That boy, he decided to let me eat. You're fine!" His voice was so loud that he woke up Xiao Li. He pointed at Gu Jing and said.
"Ah!" Xiao Li's face was full of surprise. It took him a while to come back to his senses, "Sir! You...you..."
"Xiao Li, stop talking, what he said is true!" Gu Jing said immediately!
"Master, why are you doing this?" Xiao Li said in a panic, "Xiao Li, you have been following me for more than ten years and have taken care of me. Although you and I have a master-servant relationship in name, in fact I have always regarded you as a
My brother, it’s time for me to do something for you!" Gu Jing said immediately.
"No! Master, you can't do that! I am your slave. When I was living on the streets, the master took me in, otherwise I would have starved to death for breakfast. So my life is given by the master, and it doesn't matter what I do!
"Xiao Li ran over and stood in front of Gu Jingji and said.
"Xiao Li, I know what you mean. You can leave later, stay far away, and don't go home. With your ability, you will definitely be able to make a difference!" Gu Jing said immediately,
At this moment, Xiao Li wanted to open his mouth to speak, but Gu Jing waved her hand to signal him to stop talking.
After saying that, he walked around Xiao Li and came to the weirdo: "Senior, before you take action, can you let him leave first? I don't want him to see this scene."
"Okay, kid, you can go!"
The weirdo said expressionlessly, and then waved to Xiao Li to signal him to leave. Unexpectedly, Xiao Li not only did not turn around and leave, but also took a few steps forward and stood beside Gu Jingji.
His expression became extremely determined: "Senior, please let my young master go. He is the only child of my master. He is the hope of my family. If you want to eat, just eat me. It will be considered as my repayment for my life-saving grace!"
"
The weirdo still looked at Xiao Li expressionlessly, and was about to speak when Gu Jingji's voice rang out: "Senior, you have already promised me, please let him sleep for a while!"
"Okay, I promise you!" The weirdo said to Gu Jing without any expression, but his eyes were not as cold as before. His left hand was empty, and a yellow light flew out, and Xiao Li
After falling down, Gu Jing quickly reached out to hold Xiao Li in her arms, and found a slightly flat place to put Xiao Li down.
He looked down at Xiao Li, slowly raised his head, gritted his teeth suddenly, and then quickly came to the front of the weirdo: "Senior, you can take action!"
The weirdo looked at Gu Jingji, sneered at the corner of his mouth and said, "Follow me to the stone house!" After saying that, he drifted back to the stone house.
Gu Jing immediately followed him in. Of course, his steps were very slow. How could he be active when facing death? He walked for about a quarter of an hour before entering the stone house. At this time, his speed could really be compared to that of a snail.
When he first came into the room, he felt that it was too dark and he couldn't even see his own body. When he was about to fumble forward, he only heard the sound of "whoosh~whoosh~" coming from the front, followed by several sparks heading towards
Flying to various places in the stone house.
It turned out that there was an oil lamp in the stone house. The oil lamp turned on. Although it was not very bright, it was enough to see objects clearly.
