Chapter 37 Even if it turns to ashes, I must keep him safe
The sound was so harsh that everyone subconsciously covered their ears with their hands, but they didn't have time to worry about whether there was something wrong with their eardrums.
On the ring, the red-clothed ghost who was about to stab Zhang Xiaohai's chest with his claws retreated to the edge of the ring in a flash, covering his other shoulder with one hand, and black and red mist continued to dissipate from that shoulder.
It's injured! The humans on Zhao Ruya's side immediately realized this.
They hurriedly turned to look at Zhang Xiaohai, but saw that although Zhang Xiaohai was standing, there was a cut on his chest and blood was flowing out.
"Xiao Hai!"
"Brother Xiaohai."
Zhang Xiaohai turned around and gave everyone a reassuring smile, "I'm fine, it's him who's in trouble."
"Heh." The red-clothed ghost lowered his head and laughed. The next moment he looked up, a pair of scarlet eyes showing through his long black hair. "The game ends here!"
As soon as it finished speaking, it jumped into the air, and the red clothes on its body expanded and turned into a wide black and red curtain, covering Zhang Xiaohai's head.
“Bang, bang, bang…”
The golden bullets hit the red shirt, burning black holes and causing it to pause slightly in its forward movement. However, it did not stop until it completely enveloped Zhang Xiaohai.
"Xiao Hai." Zhao Ruya and the others were thrown into chaos upon seeing this, and tried to use their weapons to attack the red-clothed ghost through the gaps in the iron fence.
But the rules were set, and the iron railings that looked like they had wide gaps were simply not something their weapons could break through.
Or rather, it should be said that the battle between Zhang Xiaohai and the red-clothed ghost seemed to be happening in front of them, but in fact they were no longer in the same space.
In the battle between one man and another, only when life and death are decided will the winner be released.
The red and black curtain tightly wrapped Zhang Xiaohai, and everyone could only see Zhang Xiaohai's squirming and struggling figure inside.
"Sure enough, even if humans get that kind of weapon, they can't beat us." The younger brother standing behind Scar said flatteringly.
"Of course, humans are only fit to be our weird food..."
"Oh, it's because the boss is too merciful. He gave them the opportunity to fight us one-on-one."
"Even if we give them a chance, they're useless..."
"Hahaha……"
Several weird people here laughed wantonly. Scar looked at the human who was tied up with a curtain and moved slower and slower, and he couldn't help but show his fangs with satisfaction.
It turned its head 180 degrees behind it and looked at the building standing there alone. A vicious look flashed in its eyes. It waited for these humans to catch the boy hiding inside.
How was it going to kill him? By skinning him, or by slow slicing? Forget it, it would be better to keep him alive and let him watch as he was eaten bit by bit. That would be much more satisfying.
Hahaha……
"Puff!" The sound of a curtain tearing suddenly rang out.
The strange laughs also stopped abruptly, causing Scar to turn around strangely, and he saw a pair of golden hands tearing open the black and red curtain.
The next moment, the golden hands exerted force, and the black and red curtain was torn into two pieces from the middle.
The torn black and red veil floated in the air, with countless faces appearing on it, both male and female, old and young. They roared silently, and a golden light, like a spark, burned in from the torn place.
The face of the red-clothed ghost also appeared on the black and red curtain, but this time, its face was torn in half. It opened its mouth and let out a shrill roar.
“Ahhh…”
As the roar ended, the two black and red curtains turned into ashes and disappeared into the air.
For a moment, the entire space was so quiet that one could hear a pin drop.
Zhang Xiaohai, who was standing on the ring, suddenly returned to the side of Zhao Ruya and the others. He covered his chest and started coughing, "Cough cough cough..."
"Quick, quick, hemostatic medicine." Han Xiaoxiao quickly took out the medicine commonly used by the army.
"Get rid of the evil spirit on the wound first." Zhao Ruya took out a talisman from her body.
"Let me do it, I can cure it." Wang Xiaoling held up the golden ball and was about to squeeze over.
"Sister, keep yours to save your life." Wang Yifan held his sister. He knew how powerful his sister's golden ball was, and he knew where her limit was.
They still have two games to play, and they can't let their sister use up all her energy now.
"Oh. Okay." Wang Xiaoling obediently took back the golden ball.
It was a busy scene here, but the weird guy who was originally laughing and joking now didn't dare to say a word, for fear of bringing bad luck to the boss.
"I'll take part in the next match." Zhao Ruya took a look at the weirdness over there, fearing that they would choose Han Xiaoxiao and the others who did not have golden weapons, so she jumped into the ring directly.
"Who's going to play in the next game?" Seeing the lightsaber in the human's hand, Scar frowned, and his weird brothers all lowered their heads.

In the House of Marriage
"Come, have some hot cocoa." Zuo An handed the hot cocoa to He Rui.
After coming here, Zuo An discovered that only high-sugar and high-calorie drinks were suitable for these people who had just escaped death.
"Thank you." He Rui took the hot cocoa handed to him by Zuo An, held the cup and sipped it slowly.
His mind is in a mess right now.
A voice told him that he was already dead.
Another voice told him that he had been saved, and it was Chen Mo who had died a month earlier who saved him.
He couldn't believe that this was true, but the warmth in his chest told him that it was all true.
When he began to accept that he had been rescued, memories that did not belong to him began to appear in his mind.
What is it?
Why is it all him?
I cried while hiding in my bed, cried while sitting on the edge of the bed, cried while touching the silver ring...
Every paragraph shows him crying.
He Rui's face flushed involuntarily, feeling both embarrassed and awkward.
Why is this perspective right next to me? When he was crying, there was clearly no one around.
He soon knew who it was. A sour and bitter pain spread in his chest, which was Chen Mo's heartache and worry for him, but also his joy at regaining what he had lost.
It turns out that he has always been there!
He saw his own fragility and understood his own pain. Even at the moment of death, the person he saw was himself.
But he didn't come to take me away, but to save me and return to the human world.
Tears fell into the hot cocoa. He was not a fragile person, but at this moment he just wanted to have a good cry.
Zuo An had quietly returned to the service desk. He had placed the tissues on the table in advance so the young man could easily grab them.
He didn't know what this young man had experienced, but he knew that both the dead man and the young man in front of him.
They love each other—
Love him so much that even if life ends and only the soul is left, I will still stay by his side.
Love him so much that even if everything turns to ashes, I will still keep him healthy.
