Chapter 535: Scared? !

Zhao Lu was bending over and leaning forward to the table, scooping up some porridge with a spoon.

Although the posture was a bit awkward, I was finally able to eat the porridge.

He was really a little hungry, after all, he didn't even have breakfast.

He had no appetite at that time, but now he didn't know whether the porridge was cooked well or his appetite had improved, but in the end, Zhao Luzheng not only finished two bowls of porridge, but also the extra bowl of vegetable and mushroom porridge that Zhuge Yun ordered.

……

Shocked by the fact that Zhao Luzheng could see monsters, Zhang Bo and Zhuge Yun had no mind to do anything else.

They just kept staring at Zhao Luzheng drinking porridge.

The burning gaze made Zhao Luzheng's eyes twitch.

However, he didn't say anything.

If one of Zhang Bo or Zhuge Yun could see the monster today, he felt that they would be even more exaggerated than they are now.

Thinking of this, Zhao Luzheng felt a little awkward at first, but later he became quite carefree and ignored the gazes of Zhang Bo and Zhuge Yun. While drinking porridge, he would occasionally look at the white monster on Xiao Xiao's shoulder.

……

Xiao Xiao found it somewhat amusing. It's not that he didn't understand Zhuge Yun's feelings, but Feifei was almost pissed off by him.

And, "Youngest, if you don't pay attention to your food, be careful-"

"Cough cough~"

Before Xiao Xiao could finish his words, Zhao Luzheng suddenly started coughing violently.

"Hey, youngest, are you okay?"

Zhang Bo and Zhuge Yun were startled.

Zhao Lu's cheeks were red from coughing, tears were oozing from the corners of his eyes, and his face was full of pain.

Xiao Xiao: ...

Does he have the potential to be a jinx?

……

Zhao Lu, who finally recovered, was gasping for breath, with a look of relief on his face.

He almost thought he was going to die from coughing.

He reached out to wipe away the tears from the corners of his eyes, then turned his eyes and looked at Xiao Xiao angrily.

Xiao Xiao's eyes were full of innocence, he didn't know how it could be such a coincidence?

Before he could finish his reminder, Zhao Luzheng choked.

……

"Haha, youngest brother, you deserve it. Who told you not to concentrate on eating?"

Zhang Bo handed the cup of water to Zhao Luzheng, but there was a hint of gloating in his words.

"Exactly, too much joy leads to sorrow, right?"

Zhuge Yun smiled with "bad intentions".

It was impossible for Zhang Bo and Zhuge Yun not to feel a little shaken about the fact that Zhao Luzheng could suddenly see monsters.

Originally everyone was the same, but suddenly they were no longer from the same world as them.

The villains in Zhang Bo and Zhuge Yun's hearts were scratching at the wall, unable to control their envy, jealousy and hatred.

……

In response to Zhang Bo and Zhuge Yun's ridicule, Zhao Luzheng decided to be magnanimous and not bother with them.

After all, he had to be considerate of men's pathetic jealousy.

……

Zhao Lu was comforting himself in this way and felt much better. When he was about to put on a "pervert look" and look at Feifei, his eyes flashed and he saw the top of Xiao Xiao's head. A black shadow attracted his attention.

"Cough cough~"

"…Hey, Third Brother, what's that on your head?"

He drank a few sips of water and coughed hard a few times before making a hoarse and dry sound.

"What? What's on the third brother's head?"

Zhuge Yun asked impatiently, his eyes anxiously scanning over Xiao Xiao's head.

Zhao Lu was stunned for a moment, then suddenly realized that he was really sick and his brain was slow, "Third brother, is this your second monster?"

Before, he had been completely focused on the beautiful white monster.

Xiao Xiao subconsciously ignored the black monster lying on his black hair.

……

"Yes."

“This is Taotie.”

Xiao Xiao calmly uttered a familiar monster name.

But, obviously, the other three were not as calm as him.

"Taotie?!"

Zhao Luzheng, Zhang Bo, and Zhuge Yun spoke in unison, their voices so loud that they were almost deafening.

Xiao Xiao couldn't help but rub his ears. ...

"Third brother, this... is this really a Taotie?"

Zhao Luzheng's entire upper body was leaning out from the edge of the bed, his eyes fixed on the black shadow.

"Third brother, you actually have a Taotie?!"

"Taotie!"

"The legendary Taotie!"

Zhang Bo and Zhuge Yun were talking to each other, and they were so excited that they were a little incoherent.

……

"Well, Taotie."

Xiao Xiao nodded, not surprised by their exaggerated performance.

Noticing that Zhao Lu was about to fall off the bed in a dangerous position, he took two steps forward and said, "Youngest, be careful not to fall."

"Uh-huh."

Zhao Luzheng responded a few times randomly, and his hand couldn't help but reach out to Xiao Xiao's head, wanting to touch the legendary Taotie with his own hands.

……

As if aware of something, Taotie opened his eyes under his armpits. They were as dead silent and dark as an endless abyss. His cold and gloomy gaze shot unceremoniously at the daring hand of the human in front of him.

The whole body has a bad aura and is full of malice.

……

Zhao Luzheng froze for a moment.

The finger was only one centimeter away from Taotie, but it could not move forward even a bit.

There seemed to be a thick darkness spreading before his eyes, from far away to near, gradually swallowing him up.

His breathing became more and more rapid, and he almost felt suffocated.

……

"Little glutton."

Xiao Xiao called out softly, but there was a hint of coldness in his tone.

……

Taotie curled his lips, without even looking at the human in front of him whose movements were ridiculous, and closed his eyes again.

……

The pressure receded like the tide.

Zhao Luzheng felt like he had escaped death.

My chest was heaving violently, my throat was dry, and there was a burning and suffocating feeling.

He was breathing heavily, with beads of sweat dripping down his forehead and sliding across the corners of his eyes. Soon he tasted a bit bitter at the corners of his mouth.

……

"Youngest, what's wrong with you?"

"Are you feeling unwell again?"

Zhang Bo and Zhuge Yun were frightened by Zhao Luzheng's sudden look of pain.

For a moment, he forgot about Taotie and was just anxiously concerned about Zhao Luzheng's condition.

……

"Youngest, it's okay."

Xiao Xiao's light and gentle voice has the power to soothe people's hearts.

Zhao Luzheng suddenly lost his strength and fell back onto the pillow.

After a while, he said in a hoarse voice: "Third, Third Brother."

"Now you know Feifei has a good temper."

There was a slight smile in Xiao Xiao's voice, and the teasing tone made Zhao Luzheng curl the corners of his mouth.

"indeed."

Zhao Lu was looking at the white monster that was quietly dozing on Xiao Xiao's shoulder, but he deliberately lowered his eyes, controlling the range of his vision and not allowing himself to look at Xiao Xiao's head.

……

"What? Was the youngest scared by the Taotie?"

Although the conversation between Xiao Xiao and Zhao Luzheng was a little vague, Zhang Bo and Zhuge Yun still heard the key points, and their expressions were surprised and puzzled.

……

"What's going on, youngest?"

"Yeah, why are you scared?"

Zhang Bo and Zhuge Yun spoke one after another. Why were they staring at the monster with a pervert look on their faces just now, but now they look so miserable as if they were too frightened?
