   Chapter 387 The Burning Giant

   “Your name is Lin Xingjie, right? I’m your father’s…”

   The young man was interrupted by the little girl in front of him before he could finish speaking.

   “Meng Zheng.”

“Hey.”

   Meng Zheng responded subconsciously, and then he felt something was wrong.

  This child, even his uncle refused to call him by his first name?

   But he didn’t have the intention to accuse the other party of being impolite. On the contrary, when the little girl looked at him with a serious face, he also couldn’t help becoming serious, and even wanted to sit upright.

   This kind of feeling is like returning to the classroom to listen to the teacher’s lectures after ten years of youth.

“These…”

The    girl pointed to the sea of ​​blood that was still surging in the distance.

   “You did it all?”

“what?”

   Meng Zheng quickly shook his head in denial.

   “No no no, of course not, I nearly drowned myself.”

   However, although he did not do it, he had a close relationship with him. After all, if he hadn’t come to this place, the sea of ​​blood that had followed him to the death would not have specially invaded an ordinary rural village.

   Meng Zheng is considering whether to hide this matter – even if he wants to tell the truth, he will not say this to a child, but should discuss with her father.

  “Anthracene…”

   However, the other party did not intend to let him go.

   “Then why did you come here?”

“…what?”

   Meng Zheng was stunned for a moment.

“If you didn’t do it, how could you be here? Didn’t you rest at the guest house in the town? It’s already this time, why don’t you come here to catch up with the past? It takes at least half an hour to get here from town. , when did you leave?”

“Uh…”

   This series of sharp questions caught Meng Zheng by surprise.

   Is this something that an elementary school girl who has just started the first grade can discover and say?

   Whether it is observation ability, logical thinking and language expression ability, it is obviously beyond the standard of this age.

   As expected of my brother’s daughter, is this child a gifted child?

  No no no no. Meng Zheng couldn’t help shaking his head.

   The so-called “gifted children”, he has seen some because of his work, but they are not the same as this child.

  The child prodigies are either because their intellectual development clearly exceeds the level of their age, or they have a special talent. Some of them are fond of literature, some are particularly sensitive to mathematics, and some show talent in music, etc…

   And the child in front of him is obviously more mature, which is difficult to explain with the so-called “unique talent”.

   The girl sighed softly when she saw that Meng Zheng had been in a daze and did not speak.

   “Yue… Well, Mr. Lin and Ms. Lin, have you informed them?”

  You call your parents Mr. Lin and Ms. Lin? What kind of educational environment is your brother’s home?

   Meng Zheng shook his head again.

   “Forget it, then I’ll call 110.”

   The little girl turned around and was about to go home. Meng Zheng heard her muttering just now and hurriedly stopped it.

“and many more!”

   When Meng Zheng was about to talk to persuade her not to call the police, she suddenly realized another thing: a primary school student witnessed such an astonishing scene just now, even if she fainted from fright on the spot. And this child’s performance… is too calm, isn’t it?

“Ok?”

   “The police… The police uncles can’t solve this.”

“Oh.”

   “Besides, this matter does concern me.”

   Meng Zheng held his forehead and decided not to hide it anymore.

   “It was my uncle who was implicated in your family. He originally came after me, but now he’s staring at you…”

“move.”

  As a result, before he could finish speaking, the little girl interrupted him again.

  Lin Xingjie stared at the blood-red pool of water behind him, and saw that bubbles were gradually emerging on the surface of the water, as if there was a large boiler underneath, which was burning incessantly.

   “What the **** is going on over there? Do we have to get out of here quickly?”

   Meng Zheng put down his hand and frowned.

   This is the first time he has encountered this situation. Although he has been attacked by the sea of ​​blood more than once, generally speaking, the sea of ​​blood that failed to kill him will “ebb” immediately after the attack.

  According to his guess, if a force from another world wants to invade reality, it must consume some kind of energy, and it is impossible to stay in the physical world for a long time.

   But now this situation…

   Seems like he doesn’t plan to let them go?

   “Go, don’t let my mom and dad be affected.”

“…it is good.”

   Seeing that a little girl can be so decisive, Meng Zheng felt that he should no longer look ahead, so he stood up from the ground and prepared to leave.

   But at this moment, a loud bang actually penetrated the silence and night, and several water droplets more than ten meters high rose from the pool of blood, and the water splashed for a while, pouring the two people on the shore.

  The **** water doesn’t really exist, so the two of them didn’t even get wet on their clothes, they just turned their heads to look in amazement.

  Two ferocious hands with a familiar appearance stretched out from the center of the blood pool, leaving ten deep scratches like ruts, and clawed on the shore.

  The depths of the blood pool have become a channel connecting the two worlds. At this moment, any bystander can imagine that a monster with a huge and unbelievable size is about to surface from it—

  As expected, the first outline that emerged from the sea of ​​blood was a huge bald head. Waterfall-like blood was flowing down from his bare head.

   Next, eyes, mouth, nose…

Without hair and eyebrows, the facial features are indeed human. However, this face has an area of ​​nearly 100 square meters and is more like a marble sculpture; a pair of pupils have no black and white eyes, but bright golden lava flowing. .

  The giant with its head sticking out from the sea of ​​blood was breathing fiercely, and a gust of wind was rolled up between the nostrils, and the mouth was wide open, exuding a strong smell of sulfur.

   “…! This guy is—”

   Meng Zheng was initially frightened by the shocking sight, but he soon realized that this face was not the first time he saw it.

  —is the last subject before the destruction of the Pinnacle Lab, the bald middle-aged man!

   It is like an evil spirit that haunts after death, transformed into the appearance of a giant, and crawled out of hell.

   “Flee!”

No need for Meng Zheng to remind him, the little girl beside him ran out a long time after she noticed the changes in the blood pool, and now she has run down to the bottom of the slope. She swayed behind her back.

  Meng Zheng didn’t dare to stand on the sidelines any longer. He even rolled and crawled to escape from the giant. He almost fell and ran down the hill staggeringly.

  *

  Xu Xiangyang ran from the neighborhood of his home to the dense forest. After running for a while among the shadowy trees, he soon began to feel severe physical exhaustion, lack of oxygen, and panting.

   The road ahead was soaked in the rich night, and the stars in the sky were blocked by the lush leaves overhead, leaving only a little cold shimmer.

It is very dangerous to run like this in the wild in the darkness where you can’t see your fingers. Even with a flashlight, it is easy to fail to see the obstacles in front of you, such as rocks or tree roots protruding from the ground. I have fallen down several times along the way, my trousers are frayed at the knees, there are bloodstains on my face from being beaten by branches, and there are small stones embedded in my palms.

  Fortunately, these are just small wounds, and he can still continue to run.

   Compared with the pain from his body, Xu Xiangyang’s deeper feeling is called “distressed”.

   I really wish he was hurt, he thought.

why would you say so? That’s right, because Xu Xiangyang is not currently using his own body.

  Xu Xiangyang’s conscious body sneaked into Lin Xingjie’s spiritual world by means of psychic means. He found that he could not interfere with reality and could only be observed by Xingjie when he was still in elementary school;

   Just now, he was surprised to notice that the connection between him and Xingjie was not limited to communication, he could even “possess” the little girl like a real ghost.

   It seems that the sea of ​​blood from another world gave them this special opportunity.

   This is kind of weird. In principle, Xu Xiangyang had never encountered such a thing before. It was as if his conscious body had become a real evil spirit after detaching from his body, and could invade other people’s bodies—this thought was quite scary after careful consideration.

In addition, whether it is occupying a lover’s body or changing from a male to a female, it must have a huge impact on a person’s mentality, but the situation is urgent, and the first thing Xu Xiangyang did after taking over the little girl’s body was to escape. , there is no idle mind to think about it.

  Xu Xiangyang has been free and free in ghost form for so long, but it is not suitable for him to have a body. Moreover, since he was using Xing Jie’s body, unlike a carefree boy like him, even if the little girl scratched her skin, he would feel so distressed.

   But no matter what, he still had to bite the bullet and continue running, not daring to stop for a moment.

  —There is no reason for it, the monster that climbed out of the blood pool was following him closely at this time.

   “Roar-roar-!”

An earth-shattering roar came from behind   , the ground beneath his feet shook violently, and the trees in the forest fell one by one, as fragile as toothpicks.

   The goblin giant struggled to drag his bony body and staggered across the ground. The huge bone that protruded from the blue-gray body surface was like the outline of a mountain ridge.

  The giant’s mouth spit out billowing black smoke, and the cracks in the body flowed out the lava-like golden liquid. Once it dripped to the ground, it would leave one after another ablated potholes, and at the same time, poisonous smoke rose.

If you look down from above the forest, you can find a dark golden “scar” in the center of this dense forest, a giant crawling past, as if more than a dozen road rollers drove by, startling countless birds along the way. The beasts fled in all directions.

   The goblin giant chased the two in front of him in a crawling posture. If the height of an ordinary person were changed, this posture would naturally not be able to run fast; but because of its extremely large size, “Rumble” recklessly ran over trees and land, leaving patches of scorch marks. pressure.

   “This guy… can’t get rid of it at all!”

   Meng Zheng’s voice came from not far away, and his tone was full of anxiety.

  Xu Xiangyang was too lazy to talk to him, not to mention that he didn’t even have the strength to speak at the moment.

   At this moment, he heard a small sound in his ear.

   “Big brother, you run to the left.”

“Ok?”

  Xu Xiangyang quickly realized that it was Lin Xingjie’s voice.

   “Xingjie? Where are you? Are you okay?”

   “I, I’m right here… but I can’t control my body, you’re running now, right?”

   “Yes, it should be because of the sea of ​​blood, I’ll wait to find a way…”

   “It’s alright, I don’t have to worry about my big brother, you run to the left first, there is a cave-like place over there, maybe, maybe it won’t be discovered by monsters…”

  Xiao Xingjie was obviously uncertain, but Xu Xiangyang followed the instructions without hesitation and ran in that direction.

Lin Xingjie often goes to play near here, so she is very familiar with the environment in the forest. According to her instructions, Xu Xiangyang found a cave under the cliff. with stalactites and moss.

   He quickly hid in, Meng Zheng followed closely behind.

The two of them hid under the cliff and only took a few breaths, only to hear another astonishing sound like a thunderclap from the sky. The ghost giant roared shrilly, lava flowing inside, and the burning body passing through the night forest. They staggered past them.

   It’s like standing next to the tracks and watching the train whizz past itself, wiping its cheeks. For a time, the world was as big as the earth, but there was only one sound left in my ears, and even my heartbeat was drowned in the overwhelming noise, which was extremely exciting.

  Xu Xiangyang breathed a sigh of relief, but before he could let go of the heart that raised his throat, he saw the goblin giant not far away suddenly stop moving.

   It apparently noticed that it was missing its target, shook its head, and started sniffing around.

   The night in the jungle suddenly became quiet again.

  The cold sky shone all over the body of the giant, and the rickety ghost covered with bone spurs was burning with endless hellfire everywhere, like a bonfire being scattered by the wind, and countless sparks flew into the sky.

  Xu Xiangyang gritted his teeth, and cold sweat broke out on his back.

  No… If this continues, sooner or later, it will be discovered.

   “You… can’t you think of something?”

  Xu Xiangyang stared at Meng Zheng.

“I, if I really had a way, I wouldn’t have come to find senior brother… I have long been targeted by the ‘sea of ​​blood’, and I almost died several times, but the condition of such a big evil spirit that emerged from it is still the same. See you again.”

   Meng Zheng smiled wryly.

   Although he has become a psychic medium, the ghost babies today are only the size of ordinary babies, and it is obviously impossible to fight against such a powerful evil spirit.

   His mood was also very depressed. For the sea of ​​​​blood, it is just one more target to kill. Is it necessary to be so ruthless?

  …

  So it was, Xu Xiangyang thought to himself, he connected with what he heard this afternoon, Meng Zheng was so concerned about the intelligence held by Lin Mingyuan, on the one hand, he was forced by the threat of his life.

   Meng Zheng should have been involved in the blood sea vision during a series of incidents investigating the destruction of Jianfeng Laboratory, and this time, Lin Xingjie’s family has been implicated.

what to do?

   Right now, Meng Zheng can’t count on it. Lin Xingjie’s parents are just ordinary people, so he can’t expect someone to come down from the sky at this time.

  It is a small village in itself, far away from the city; secondly, the aura of this ghost is at least the level of a top-level evil spirit, which is not something that ordinary psychic mediums can handle; thirdly…

   is also the most important point, the goblin giants will soon find them, and there is no time to rescue them.

   If only the class leader was here, or if he hadn’t hurriedly leaned over Xingjie before, his psychic ability had soared in the state of consciousness, maybe there was a way to deal with it.

   Xu Xiangyang became more anxious the more he thought about it. Not only for himself, but more importantly for the safety of the girl, he is now using Xingjie’s body—

  …

  …

  Wait, Xingjie’s body?

  Xu Xiangyang raised his tender palm and couldn’t help falling into contemplation.

   I am now… but “Lin Xingjie”?

  —Since it was that Lin Xingjie, who wanted to deal with evil spirits, where would he need help from others?
