Chapter 342: Huanhuan

Hehe. Sir, if theres anything else you need, please just let us know.

The station masters flattering smile reminded Li Huowang of his own superior.

Go to sleep. And dont come near my room if theres nothing, instructed Li Huowang.

Alright, have a good rest~ I will go back now. If you need anything, just call out for Old Wu, and Ill arrive as soon as I can, said the station master as he turned back.

The door shut with a creak. Then, Li Huowang fastened the door and took out the soaked rations from his bag, and began to gnaw on them.

Without Bun around, he was even more wary and dared not eat random food from outside, even if it was at a relay station of the Liang Kingdom.

At that moment, Li Huowang suddenly stopped eating and looked at the scabs on the back of his hand. There seemed to be something moving there.

When he examined it carefully under the candlelight, he found a fine, black tentacle there. It resembled an earthworm, and was continuously wriggling around inside his blood vessels. Li Suis tentacles had followed along his blood vessels and reached his hand, which was something unprecedented.

I called it, didnt I? See, the omen has appeared. This is just the beginning. The Black Taisui will gradually occupy all the meridians in your body. At that point, you will be dead meat. Even the Immortals wont be able to save you then. Do as I say, and quickly get rid of the Black Taisui! said Hong Zhong.

However, Li Huowang just continued to chew on the flatbread in his mouth while eyeing Hong Zhong coldly.

Daddy? Li Suis voice rang out again, this time with a hint of grievance and hesitation.

Li Huowang withdrew his gaze, and then placed the reminder of his rations back into his pocket. Then, he directly blew out the candle. At this point, he was too lazy to even take a bath, and just directly decided to lie down. He was exhausted. The moment the back of his head hit the pillow, he had already entered dreamland.

Li Huowang woke up to the pitter-patter sound of rain outside his window. He had finally had a good sleep after a long time.

Still in a daze, he was suddenly hit by a strong bout of queasiness.

Whats going on?

Li Huowang walked over to retrieve his water gourd and hydrate himself.

But as soon as he opened his mouth, before the water had even poured in, several tentacles burrowed out from within his throat.

Then, Li Huowang took the five shumais from her hands and stuffed them into his mouth as he said, Back at the kindergarten, Im sorry about what happened. You know too that I have a mental illness. Sometimes, I cannot differentiate things very well.

Huanhuan smiled sweetly as she watched him eat, then shook her head, her two ponytails swinging from side to side. Its alright, I know that you are not intentionally trying to harm me.

Li Huowang raised his hand to pat her head, but decided against it when he saw just how filthy his palm was.

Thank you for your shumais. Remember, dont bring food for me in future. I might end up harming you when I am mad, said Li Huowang before pausing abruptly. Why was he spouting such nonsense in this obvious hallucination?

Mm, I got it! Goodbye Uncle! Ill head home first! Huanhuan gave Li Huowang a big hug, and then turned to leave.

Li Huowang walked to the edge of the area under the bridge. Standing in the shadows, he watched the petite figure dashing off in the sunlight. There was a sense of warmth in his eyes.

Back there, he would treat every act of kindness with extreme wariness. Conversely in this hallucination, kindness was everywhere. If he could choose, then he would much rather this side be the real one.

Just as he was going to turn around and head back to the area under the bridge, a fatty emerged from a corner in the distance. He was smoking and was wearing a large golden chain on his neck. This made Li Huowangs expression freeze.

The fatty occasionally stole shifty glances toward this direction, which made the warmth in Li Huowangs expression slowly turn into chilliness.

Whats he trying to do to Huanhuan?

Li Huowang immediately thought of a movie scene, which made his skin twitch. Even if this was just his hallucination, he would not let such disgusting events unfold.

He looked around and picked up a cobblestone that was within reach from the riverside, and then started moving toward the fatty.

By the time the fatty turned to see Li Huowang, he had already been hit on his head.

Immediately, the fattys head started bleeding, causing him intense pain. By the time he realized what was going on, Li Huowang had already dragged him to the area under the bridge. When he looked down, he saw that a piece of shattered glass had pierced through his left palm, causing him to start screaming in pain.

At that moment, Li Huowang suddenly punched the fattys chest, causing the fattys cries to stop abruptly and lose his breath. What are you screaming for? I havent even started yet.

When the fatty finally regained his composure, Li Huowang looked at him coldly and asked, Speak. What were you trying to do with the little girl?

The fatty looked extremely wronged as tears almost fell from his eyes. Why would I be watching the little girl? I have been keeping an eye at you!
