Chapter 5 Shadow Upgrade
"Then I'll thank Sister Zhou first. I'll borrow this gold from Sister Zhou for the time being. I'll pay it back when I have money in the future." Xu Zhou thought for a moment and accepted Zhou Ru's kindness.
"What money is not worth it? It's so vulgar. When you grow up two years later, you'll be willing to give it a promise." Zhou Ru's rotten face had recovered as before, but her abdomen was injured and her face was a little pale.
"..." Xu Zhou was speechless again. The night watchman was a little too skilled in driving.
"Cough! Cough! Sister is bleeding a little bit today and is a little weak. She is handsome. I will come to visit you in two days." Seeing the figures of the guards carrying live ammunition, Zhou Ru said goodbye to Xu Zhou, and then lay down on the stretcher in the guard hall, and was escorted away from the scene by the police car.
After Xu Zhou held the rope into the golden pocket, he immediately left the scene.
When he got home, Xu Zhou didn't even have a rest, and was not stunned for a moment, so he took out the 36 candles that had been used to transform into strange shadows.
As early as his shadow suppressed the straw rope, he had already seen how to use the straw rope to upgrade.
This time the pattern of the candle is roughly the same as last time, with only some differences in the subtleties.
After placing the candles, Xu Zhou found a fruit knife in the kitchen and carved another pattern on the palm of his left hand.
Then, he carried the gold pocket and walked into the candle and lit it.
Open the golden pocket, reach in with your left hand, and grab the straw rope.
A strange scene appeared, and the straw rope in the golden pocket disappeared bit by bit, while the dark shadow on Xu Zhou's ground appeared on his neck!
"Successfully upgraded!" Xu Zhou's mouth curled up with a smile.
That night, two strange ones were destroyed in a row, and their energy was consumed too much. Even though Xu Zhou was young and energetic, he felt a burst of fatigue.
After a brief treatment of the wound in his palm, Xu Zhou lay on the bed and fell asleep.
Dongdongdongdongdongdong!
Xu Zhou was woken up by a sound of smashing the door.
When I opened my eyes, it was already bright and the bright sunshine shone in through the windows, giving people a sense of vitality.
Xu Zhou opened the door and a fat little man in a black T-shirt stood at the door.
"Brother, I didn't agree that it would be nine o'clock this morning. It's ten o'clock. Can you know a little bit?" The fat man walked into the living room and sat on the sofa very happily.
"Where are you going at nine o'clock?" Xu Zhou had no impression at all.
Not only did he have no impression of this nine o'clock, he also had no idea who this little fat man was.
"Damn, no, did you forget?" The fat man stood up from the sofa, looking very injured.
"It must be forgotten." Xu Zhou sat down freely, "So where are you going today at nine o'clock?"
"Skinny Xu!" The little fat man strode to Xu Zhou, and said viciously, "I only have one birthday a year, and you have forgotten it!"
"Today is your birthday?" Xu Zhou looked at the fat man. He was so casual about his birthday with him. He even called him "Xu Slender". It seemed that he should be a friend of his good relationship.
"Xu Shouzi, you really disappointed me." The little fat man softened his softly on the sofa, looking at the ceiling with no desire, "Xu Shouzi, I will forgive you this time, but I warn you, you can't forget about me anymore!"
"Sorry, I really forgot one."
"What did you forget again!"
"Who are you?"
The little fat man punched Xu Zhou on the shoulder, "It's a big deal, your joke is not funny at all."
"No kidding, I really don't know who you are. I have lost my memory and don't remember many things." Xu Zhou said seriously.
"Amnesia? Why don't you say you are the illegitimate son of the city lord? Do you think you are acting in a TV series, big brother!"
"I encountered strange things last night and then I forgot a lot of things."
"What? Weird?" The fat man couldn't help but feel nervous when he saw Xu Zhou's expression was not as fake.
"Last night, I lit a candle to read a book. A black shadow suddenly slipped in through the door and started blowing my candle. I fell to the ground. After waking up, I forgot a lot of things." Xu Zhou said.
"I didn't expect you to encounter a strange thing. Did you report to the night watch?" The little fat man surrounded Xu Zhou, his concern beyond words.
"Qiqi has left, there is no need to report it."
“Is it really not necessary?
"The newspaper was reasonable yesterday, but now the strange thing has left, and the night watch will not be accepted."
"But……"
"It's nothing, but you said you're here at 9 o'clock today, where are you? Let's go!" Xu Zhou urged. He didn't even know what his parents were doing now. The little fat man was coming in time and could answer many questions.
The so-called "Nine" of the little fat man's arrival seems mysterious, but it is actually very simple, just go to his house to watch a movie.
The fat guy likes watching movies very much, so he copied some classic videos in advance, prepared some popcorn, and prepared to take his good friends to watch it together on his birthday.
A man’s birthday is so simple.
No cake, birthday gift, and flowers are needed.
The little fat man was not far from Xu Zhou's house, so the two of them walked all the way.
The weather was gloomy, and the ink clouds were hanging over the head like lead blocks, as if they were about to fall down at any time.
The sky full of shiny buildings penetrated into the blue sky, shattering the sky curtain.
The cool-shaped car is hiking around on the dark and narrow roads, which seems messy and has a strange order.
The traffic lights at the intersection turned green, and two black and white at both ends of the road, with two people wearing different clothes immediately rushed and gathered together in the middle of the road.
Xu Zhou looked at these scenes, as if Liu Laolao entered the Grand View Garden, and felt extremely novel.
"I believe you really have amnesia now." The fat man on the side curled his lips, "You have grown up here since you were a child. You see these scenes every day, so why do you seem to have never seen them before?"
"I'm happy, you can care..." Before Xu Zhou finished speaking, he saw a scene that made him open his mouth wide.
I saw a 20-meter-high light woman standing between two tall buildings, smiling and speaking.
"Since the New Year, the number of people calling the police for nightmares has surged. The city lord reminded that the 'Dream Eater' has been eliminated by the night watch and will not harass the citizens again. Nightmares are just a normal physiological reaction. Please don't call the police for nightmares, unless you can provide evidence that you are being targeted by strange people..."
There was a huge light curtain in front of the woman in the light and shadow. As her explanation, pictures flashed on the light curtain.
"Are you already so developed?" Xu Zhou looked up at the woman in light curtain, and opened his mouth wide in surprise.
