Alien Hotel

All the sounds were mixed together, the frantic thoughts and the last rationality of the demon fox were fighting and tearing each other apart. Yu Sheng heard the painful whimper of Hu Li beside his ear, but more crazy and chaotic sounds roared in his mind - there was the demon fox's appetite that was on the verge of losing control, the hunger that was like a piercing heart, the temptation of chaos and darkness, and... the shouts urging him to run away.

Yu Sheng took a deep breath, crouched down and rushed to a gap between the demon fox and the monster, but he did not run away as Hu Li urged him to. Instead, he grabbed a broken bluestone slab from the ground and rushed to the side of the monster with it.

Of course, he knew that he would probably not be able to beat this monster, but he knew that it was impossible to run away from here with human strength alone. In addition, there were ruins everywhere blocking the way. The only open exit leading to the outside of the ruined temple was blocked tightly by the huge body of the monster. In this case, running away recklessly would probably only kill him faster.

It would be better to charge headfirst. You can't win by fighting, but since you are not afraid of death, you have a chance to gain some results before you die. If you can distract the monster by chance, maybe Hu Li can get out of the terrible bondage. She is still struggling to maintain her sanity. If there is a chance for her to get out of the trap, maybe there is a chance to fight back...

All these thoughts passed in an instant. Yu Sheng knew that his thinking was not thorough, but he didn't care too much. With no choice, he could only be ruthless. This body once again burst out with a huge force that confused himself, smashing the heavy bluestone slab at the flesh and blood monster like a cannonball.

The next second, he had no time to confirm the "results" of his attack. A huge warning sign emerged from the bottom of his heart. Yu Sheng "saw" the monster's counterattack a second in advance, and his body suddenly jumped to the side.

A black shadow like a steel whip hit the place where he just stood. It was a snake tail that suddenly split off from the monster's body. In an instant, soil and rocks flew everywhere, and the solid bluestone and broken bricks and tiles were all turned into dust. Yu Sheng felt a strong impact in the air, and the broken stones hit him like bullets, and even made a sound like metal hitting stone.

Yu Sheng didn't care about the pain on his body. After landing, he rolled quickly and avoided the pursuit of the snake tail. At the same time, the corner of his eye swept over the direction where Hu Li was.

The silver-white demon fox struggled violently between countless black spikes and bone fragments. The dark blue spirit fire burning near the fox tail flickered violently, as if it would explode out of control in the next second.

But she was still trapped tightly - those things that bound her seemed to be specially customized for her, and Yu Sheng's interference from the side had no effect at all.

In fact, Yu Sheng could tell at a glance that this fox girl was many times stronger than himself, but she had no chance to fight back in front of the monster. There was obviously a very obvious... "restraint" between the monster and her.

But at the beginning, in the open space outside the ruined temple, she still rushed over without hesitation to "save" him - although she failed in the end, she really wanted to help at that time.

Memories flashed by, Yu Sheng gritted his teeth hard, and wanted to rush up again, trying to see if he could use the old method of exchanging his life to bite off some more parts from the monster.

He didn't know where the extra strength and recovery ability in his body came from, but he remembered that before these changes first appeared, he bit off a piece of meat from the monster.

He was not sure whether there was any connection between the two things, but there was no other way at the moment, and he was not afraid of death, so he could try all the bold guesses in his mind.

"Don't bother me!" At this moment, Hu Li's voice came again, "It can't kill... me, you, run!"

"It's okay, it can't kill me either," Yu Sheng spat out a mouthful of blood foam, which was the injury he suffered when he was hit on the chin by the rubble in the air. He turned his head and looked at the silver-white demon fox with a happy smile on his face, "I may die later, but don't worry, I will come back to find you."

Hu Li's struggling action paused for a moment, as if he was confused for a while.

Yu Sheng did not explain anything, but just walked towards the monster, his steps were brisk, and the smile on his face became more and more obvious.

There was a kind of happiness like attending a banquet in that smile.

"Don't you like to persuade people to eat?" He looked at the flesh and blood monster in front of him and muttered to himself, "Okay, I'm here to eat!"

He jumped in the air and pounced on the feasting table like a hungry wolf.

The dozens of eyes on the flesh and blood monster's body trembled violently. For the first time, those chaotic and frenzied eyes seemed to have a hint of hesitation and...flinching.

It let out a vague roar from its huge mouth, and then several tentacle-like "snake tails" with black scales split out from its fleshy body and pierced Yu Sheng in the air.

Yu Sheng felt that his body was pierced through, fatally wounded, he didn't know how many places, he felt his life began to fade, warm blood was taking away the vitality in his body.

But that indescribable... "appetite" had surged from the bottom of his heart, he ignored the pain in his body, ignored all the resistance and uneasiness about death, he held a snake tail that pierced his abdomen, grinned, lowered his head and bit it -

The monster let out a strange and sharp howl, and suddenly swung the snake tail, as if trying to get rid of a deadly poisonous insect clinging to him.

However, Yu Sheng held on to the tail tightly and refused to let go no matter how violently the other party swung it. He was hit by the snake's tail and smashed to the ground, and then knocked over a broken wall next to him. His strong body was not affected by this fatal impact. The injury only made him more awake in the pain.

And at this moment, the snake's tail rose high again and swung towards a large hole in the wall of the ruined temple.

A strange golden light suddenly flashed across the edge of his vision.

Yu Sheng raised his head with difficulty amid the whistling wind in his ears, and saw the golden color approaching him quickly. Before he could distinguish what it was, he subconsciously raised his hand to block it.

His hand caught something - a handle.

Yu Sheng: "...?"

The slight creaking sound was mixed with the whistling wind, and the image of a door suddenly appeared in Yu Sheng's mind - an ordinary door, leading to somewhere, leading to...

As soon as a subconscious place appeared in his mind, the door was opened by him.

The next second, Yu Sheng and the snake tail covered with black scales instantly fell into the door, and then with a harsh squeak, the door closed suddenly.

The snake's tail of the flesh and blood monster was directly cut off by the door that suddenly appeared and disappeared. A chaotic howl that was enough to drive the listener crazy echoed in the valley. The trauma seemed to make it go crazy. It roared and rampaged through the ruins of the ruined temple, It crazily gnawed at everything within sight, even its own body. After an unknown amount of time, it slowly calmed down, and its body once again turned into a shadow of darkness and nothingness, gradually dissolving into the night.

Those dark spikes and bone fragments disappeared silently, and the scarred silver-white demon fox fell to the ground, motionless, as if dead.

After a few minutes, Hu Li finally slowly opened her eyes. She looked around blankly, her golden-red eyes seeming to have completely lost their "human" spirituality.

After a while, her eyes focused on a certain place in the ruins.

That was the step where she and her "benefactor" sat together.

She dragged the huge body of the demon fox and slowly moved over. She saw the plastic bags and leftover rotten leaves scattered under the steps, so she lowered her head and swallowed them all while purring.

But she was still hungry.

That bewitching voice was like a devil that never went away, persuading her in the deepest part of her hunger—

"Eat, you know where there is something to fill your stomach..."

"You buried them in the woods...

"Bones, flesh, and blood...

"Go, eat, you won't be hungry anymore..."

The demon fox lowered its head and let out a whimper that sounded like weeping. Then it huddled under the steps, slowly stretched its neck, chewed on the broken bricks and tiles next to it, and dug up the soil and rotten wood under the ruins. They slowly stuffed it into their mouths, nibbling and nibbling.

"I'm not hungry... I'm not hungry... Someone gave me something to eat... He'll be back soon to bring me more food... I'm not hungry..."

She nibbled on it until, as she had done for many years, she gradually passed out.

The feeling of falling kept Yu Sheng awakening from his confusion. He still had the "feeling" of holding the doorknob in his hand, but the next second, he realized that he had crossed a certain limit.

He opened his eyes wide in shock and saw that he was lying on the side of the road. In his sight were familiar street lamps, telephone poles, and low and old houses on Wutong Road.

The old exterior wall and gate of No. 66 Wutong Road are not far ahead, standing in the faint morning light.

He turned around with difficulty and saw the shadow of a gate gradually dissipating. Deep in the shadow, he could still vaguely see the valley shrouded in night, the ruins of the ruined temple, and...

The white fox was struggling to move among the ruins.

Yu Sheng tried to reach out to the white fox.

The last remaining shadow dissipated before his fingertips touched it.
