monster he just wants to be a good guy

Go home, Xiaoman.

"Brother Qingyan?"

Lu Man's eyes lit up when he saw Zheng Qingyan's familiar face, but when he looked down and saw the empty trouser leg on the left, his excitement and surprise suddenly froze and cooled down.

The guard hurriedly tried to close the door, but not only could the door fail to close, but it was getting bigger and bigger instead.

Lu Man opened the door without any difficulty, but was pointed at with guns by the people around him.

"Warning, don't come out!" They pointed their guns at the boy behind the door.

Lu Man looked at them, his eyes were calm and dark, they were obviously holding weapons, but the hairs on their backs were still standing straight.

After a while, a smile appeared on his face: "Don't be nervous, I don't want to go out."

"I just want to bring people in." He stretched out his hand to Zheng Qingyan, Zheng Qingyan remained silent, but raised his other hand without crutches, and put it on Lu Man's arm.

Lu Man carefully led him, avoiding the scattered meals on the ground, and led Zheng Qingyan to the door.

When the door was slowly closed, the tense people outside breathed a sigh of relief and suddenly realized.

"The director ordered that he would not let out...didn't he say that he would not let in?"

"It seems that I didn't say it." If I didn't say it, I didn't care.

They looked at me and at you, and stood back to their positions resentfully, pretending that nothing happened just now.

"You are a coward, with a gun in your hand, you are afraid of even a child!"

"Tch, you still have the nerve to say me? You brag every day about how many monsters you have seen, how courageous you are. Just now I saw that your legs were trembling." The guard who was accused snorted disdainfully.

"Fart! It's obvious that the kid is too evil..." He recalled that Lu Man's eyes were still a little scared. He used to be a member of the Aurora Reconnaissance Team. He was alive, dead, four-legged, and two-legged. What kind of monster is he? have seen.

After retiring at an old age, he returned to the base station to work as a guard to make a living. The past few years of mediocre life has diluted the past, but just now, the moment he saw Lu Man's eyes, all the memories of blood and fire came back.

His long-sleeping intuition was awakened again—the eyes were clearly monsters, cold and cruel, like slowly burning ice, without a trace of heat or color.

Lu Man gave Zheng Qingyan the only soft chair in the room, and stood beside him.

"Xiao Man, why are you here?"

After the silence outside the door, Zheng Qingyan finally spoke.

In the cafeteria before, Zheng Qingyan heard that familiar name and thought he had heard it wrong.After reacting, he laughed at himself, how could Lu Man be here.

But in the end, being cautious by nature, he still couldn't let go and went to check. Unexpectedly, this investigation turned out to be the Lu Man he knew!

He looked at Lu Man with a serious expression, "You are still so young, running around outside is very dangerous! This place is no different than the village."

Lu Man pursed his lips, looking a little aggrieved: "I was going hunting with Qing Miao and the others, but I got lost."

How did he manage to get lost all the way from Qingmiao Village in the outer suburbs to the core city?

Dazed eyes flashed across Zheng Qingyan's eyes. He glanced at the corpse of the monster placed on the dissecting table not far away. The monster's stomach was still wide open.I heard them say during dinner just now that Lu Man...was cut out of the stomach of this monster?

"Are you injured?" He grabbed Lu Man's hand and rolled up his sleeves, which were too long. The exposed arm was as clean as ever, without any wounds.

"I'm fine." Lu Man forced a smile, "Brother Qingyan..."

He half-kneeled on the ground, carefully untied the knot, and gently rolled up the empty trouser legs.

The ankle and foot underneath disappeared, and only half of the calf remained. The bare section was wrapped in a bandage.

"Who made it?" Lu Man's tone was very light, as if he was afraid that speaking a little louder would hurt the wound.

He lowered his head and stared quietly at the broken leg. From Zheng Qingyan's perspective, he could only see the hair on the top of Lu Man's head, but could not see Lu Man's expression clearly.

"Did the people from Aurora do it?" He almost muttered to himself.

Zheng Qingyan interrupted Lu Man's wild thoughts in time: "No, I cut it off myself when I was entangled by monsters. The people from Aurora saved me."

When the topic of monsters was brought up, Zheng Qingyan fell back to reality from the joy of reunion. His eyebrows twitched, and after a long time of deliberation, he finally mustered up the courage to say that sentence: "I'm sorry."

"I failed to protect you, Uncle Lu..."

Lu Man raised his head subconsciously, and saw Zheng Qingyan's face full of guilt, and an extremely bad premonition rose in his heart.

"The research team I mentioned in the letter before was sent by Aurora. We were about to return when we finished inspecting the last cave, but suddenly an earthquake occurred."

"The cave opened, and a new monster emerged from it. I was entangled. I had to cut off my lower leg to save my life... After that, I passed out from the pain, and when I woke up, I found that I had been brought back by the people of Aurora. base."

"But Lu Chuan didn't come here with him. I asked people who were traveling with me, but the surrounding area was in chaos during the earthquake, and none of them paid attention to where Lu Chuan went."

Zheng Qingyan was ready to accept his accusation, reprimand or cry, but Lu Man acted unusually calm.

"I see. Where is the cave where the monster came out?"

He had never seen Lu Man like this before. In the village, Lu Man smiled at everyone, and it was rare for him to be so expressionless.

His eyes were dark and seemed plain, but a violent storm was brewing beneath them. His hands that were by his side were tightly clenched into fists, suppressing the uneasiness and anxiety in his heart.

Zheng Qingyan seemed to have foreseen Lu Man's intention to search near the cave, so he shook his head:

"I also followed the team sent by Aurora and searched around the cave several times, but I couldn't find him... Maybe he ran to another place."

It is indeed possible.

I heard from the hunting team's uncle before that Uncle Lu couldn't carry it on his shoulders or fight with his hands, but he was better at escaping than everyone else in the team.When encountering danger, Lu Chuan is always the first to run away vigilantly.Maybe Uncle Lu is indeed hiding somewhere else.

Thinking of this, Lu Man's expression finally eased a little, and his clenched fists loosened a little.

Zheng Qingyan's mission on this trip is to protect Lu Chuan from returning to the village safely.

But now, Lu Chuan was lost by him, and his life and death are uncertain, but he himself is still alive and well.Facing the children of the Lu family, Zheng Qingyan always felt guilty and ashamed.

"I'm sorry." Zheng Qingyan apologized again.

Lu Man shook his head: "It's not Brother Qingyan's fault."

my fault.

Lu Man blamed himself deeply in his heart.

If he had left the village for the first time before, instead of returning to the village halfway, if he had thought earlier that Uncle Lu and the others might still be stranded in the core area, Brother Qingyan's leg might not have broken, and Uncle Lu would not have gone missing. ...

If he could be stronger, wouldn't he be able to protect everyone?

He let go of his hand, because he had clenched it too tightly just now, his nails were firmly stuck into the flesh, and blood spots came out from the wound.Lu Man buried his face in his hands, trying to hide his fragility for a while.

Lu Man opened his eyes, and saw clearly that the wound on his palm healed in a blink of an eye.

If only he was the one who got hurt.Lu Man thought to himself, he is not afraid of pain, and his injury heals quickly, so it would be great if he could help everyone get hurt.

Zheng Qingyan stepped forward and patted his shoulder lightly.

Under the comfort of brother Qingyan, he slowly walked out of the negative emotions.

Go back to the village, or go to Uncle Lu?

This is another problem.

What if the village also encounters a danger that cannot be dealt with during the time when he is not in Qingmiao Village?

A terrifying scene of a peaceful and beautiful village turning into a purgatory on earth appeared in front of his eyes, and Lu Man suddenly panicked.

Lu Man soon had a choice and an answer in his mind.Now that he has no clue or clue as to where Uncle Lu has gone, he can only delay for the time being to find out about Uncle Lu. He has to go back to the village to confirm.

"Brother Qingyan, do you know the way back to the village?"

"What's the use of knowing." Zheng Qingyan smiled bitterly, "Now the earthquake has completely separated the urban area from the suburbs. We can't get through at all, unless we can grow wings and fly over... Ha."

impossible.Zheng Qingyan shook his head, only to feel that he was dreaming.

"What if I say I can?" Lu Man tilted his head and asked.

He glanced at the location of the camera in the room from the corner of his eye, moved his footsteps, and stepped into the blind spot of monitoring.

Lu Man took off his shirt and put it on his hands so as not to tear other people's clothes.His back arched slightly, and the next second, there was a rustling sound.

Zheng Qingyan opened his mouth wide and his pupils shrank suddenly, with an expression of disbelief.

He looked at Lu Man, and then at the monster lying on the bed. The shape and color of the wings of the two were exactly the same, and Lu Man was cut out of the monster's stomach... Impossible, he watched Xiao Man grow up. !

Zheng Qingyan threw the absurd thoughts out of his mind, and after a long time, he finally calmed down.

Lu Man had already buttoned his jacket and walked out again.

"how did you do that?"

"A little accident happened." Lu Man shrugged.

Small accident?The corners of Zheng Qingyan's eyes twitched.

"If brother Qingyan knows the way, I can fly with you, as long as you show me the direction."

Zheng Qingmiao was silent for a moment, then shook her head.

"I can't go back with you yet."

"Why?" Lu Man looked at him puzzled.

"I left the Aurora sign for Lu Chuan before, and I want to wait for a while. My feet are too." He looked down at his empty trouser legs.

The doctor said that his wound needs to be observed for a while. If it becomes inflamed and festers, he will need to operate on it later.

"What does the monster that killed you look like?"

Although it was a bit strange why Lu Man would ask this question, Zheng Qingyan still told him everything he knew.

At that time, the ground trembled, the cave cracked open, and a large group of monsters emerged.A group of people ran desperately to the safe area, and Zheng Qingyan, who had a high force value, naturally shouldered the task after the break.

Originally, their retreat was going smoothly and they were about to leave the danger zone, but Zheng Qingyan didn't expect that his whole body would be pulled back suddenly by something.

He lowered his head, only to find that a slender flesh-colored tongue was tightly wrapped around his left foot, dragging him back quickly.

Zheng Qingyan originally used a knife to cut the tongue, but the monster's tongue was harder than iron, and he couldn't cut it. The more he struggled, the more he stuck into the flesh.

He immediately cut off half of his calf and managed to get away from the monster's mouth, but he was also permanently disabled.

He can no longer run and jump like before, but at least he is still alive.

Lu Man nodded, keeping the monster's characteristics in mind.

"By the way, although I can't go back with you to show you the way, I have an idea."

"Of the pigeons we brought, there is one left that has not been sent out."

There is only this last one left.

After suffering an earthquake and being exiled in a foreign land, Zheng Qingyan never thought of sending letters to the village.After all, so many things happened, Lu Chuan disappeared, he lost half of his leg, and the way back to the village was broken.

But when he thought that this carrier pigeon was the only link between himself and Qingmiao Village, he hesitated.

That last letter was written and deleted, deleted and rewritten, repeatedly scribbled, and in the end, the waste manuscripts piled up into a hill, but not a single letter was sent.

And the last pigeon is still staying in his room, eating and sleeping, and being fat and strong.

"Although I can't follow you there and show you the way along the way...but the carrier pigeon can."

Homing pigeons can find their way home even if they are thousands of miles away.

Instead of letting it be trapped in a cage as a mascot and continue to gain weight, it is better to release it in the sky and guide Lu Man the way home.

"Follow the carrier pigeon and go home, Xiao Man."
