Chapter 32: Survival
After a night of mourning, Dongcheng was still bleeding all over the ground, and the attack of the beast tide at night was even more crazy, but the soldiers of the other four city gates could only watch, but they could not do anything to help, because they all had their own duties, unless they were ordered from above, even if they were separated by a distance of more than ten meters, they could only watch, and the military order was like a mountain of unforgiving intolerance, which was a gap that no one could cross.
It's just a night, Chu Huan is full of emotion, there is such a difficult place to survive in the world, but it is a place to survive, this is their law of survival, those who can survive are good, no wonder the barrier city is highly respected by the inland people, the reason is here.
It's dawn, Chu Huan and the three of them should go, after all, the task is the most important, Chu Huan and the three of them are facing the same survival dilemma, Chu Huan understands what Lin Youjia means, and understands that once his hands are stained with blood, he will never be able to turn back.
There was a saying in the martial arts in the previous life, once you enter the rivers and lakes, you can't help yourself, and the three of Chu Huan are not the same.
Now that they have stepped into the gate of the Hunting Palace, then everyone will not be able to kill them blatantly, and with the protection of Zhenwu Hall, the talents of the Lin family will not attack Chu Huan and the three of them openly.
Chu Huan raised his hand and gently wiped the fox man's silver hair, a kind smile rose at the corner of his mouth, and the little fox man also cast a grateful look at Chu Huan, this little fox man's name is Yin Xiaoqi, last night's night, he actually had an inexplicable sense of intimacy with Chu Huan and the three of them.
It's not because Chu Huan and the three of them saved him, this is only part of the reason, but also because Chu Huan didn't have any thoughts of racial nobility and cheapness, in the eyes of a cultivator, all things are born from the same root, and they are nourished by the aura of heaven and earth, so what is the difference between nobility and lowness?
Putting aside Chu Huan, Tang Yi is honest and honest, Hong Xuexue is kind by nature, and Yin Xiaoqi is naturally not difficult to accept these two people.
Chu Huan's smile became stronger and stronger, although Yin Xiaoqi is a fox clan, cunning and intelligent by nature, and is good at using lies to deceive people, but in Chu Huan's eyes, even if he is a fox clan, he is definitely easier to get along with than the human race, provided that you are good enough to him, once the people of the beast clan are sincere to you, it is a lifelong thing.
"Xiao Qi, I'll go outside the city to do some leather trading, just send you back to the beast domain! You fox man, don't pay attention in this city for a day, and be given a sacrifice flag again!" Chu Huan patted Yin Xiaoqi's shoulder kindly, and just wanted to say something more, but was interrupted by a rough voice: "Which bastard kid laughs at Lao Tzu! Chu Huan, you kid, you really don't know how to blush when you hurt people behind your back!"
The iron ape didn't know when, patting his chest and staggering from behind Chu Huan, before he could reach out, the iron ape stretched out his arm and gave Chu Huan a hug, and said with a smile: "Brother, we will never make this kind of mistake in the future, using a child who has no power to tie the chicken to sacrifice the flag, that is my confusion before! You are right, you have the ability to catch a beast demon soldier to sacrifice the flag, after all, this is also a poor civilian!"
After the iron ape finished speaking, he let go of Chu Huan and was about to touch Yin Xiaoqi's head, but Yin Xiaoqi dodged and dodged him, hiding behind Chu Huan vigilantly, looking at the iron ape with an uneasy face.
This scene also caused everyone to laugh, and the iron ape made a big red face in embarrassment, and could only point at Yin Xiaoqi and laugh and scold helplessly, but there was no way at all.
"Don't say anything, in the future, as long as you little fox don't do anything harmful to my clan, you will be my little friend! It's still a good word Chu brother, little friend!hahaha!" The iron ape scratched his head and waved his hand at the soldiers on the city wall, and the group of shirtless soldiers pushed a huge hanging basket and walked out of the beacon tower.
At this moment, Chu Huan's face slowly faded into a smile, and it wasn't until last night that Chu Huan knew that there was a dead rule in this walled city, there was no city gate in this city, it was impossible for ordinary people to get out of the city, and it was even more impossible for them to enter the city outside.
You must know that except for the direction behind this walled city, the other defense lines are all foreigners, in order to be safer, it is understandable that it is such a strategic place.
But such a big city has its own underground rules, if you want to get out of the city, you must be smuggled, if it weren't for Chu Huan's mistaken understanding of the iron ape, I'm afraid that just going out of the city would have Chu Huan a headache for a long time.
Chu Huan didn't say anything, patted the iron ape's shoulder heavily, stuffed a bag of gold coins into the iron ape's hand, and forcefully interrupted the iron ape's action to speak: "Brother, I know the friendship between you and me, you are not happy when I give money!" But you have to accept it, it is not easy for brothers to be born and die, no one knows if there is a tomorrow, please have a drink brothers, try to be happy day by day!"
"Hmm!"
The iron ape nodded heavily, stuffed the gold coin into his armor, and quietly waved his hand behind him, the huge hanging basket was already on the city wall.
Chu Huan didn't say much, turned around and took Hong Xuexue and the three of them to step on the hanging basket, and slowly descended under the gaze of the Iron Ape and the others!
The thousand-meter-high city wall, the hanging basket descended slowly and inconspicuously, the river roared under their feet, and there were white waves, Chu Huan and the three of them knew that once they fell into the water, the three of them would leave the area ruled by human beings, and the outside world ...... More dangerous.
At the same time, the moment Chu Huan was put down from the hanging basket, he saw the true face of Lushan in the fortress city.
This city wall is not as smooth and glorious as Chu Huan thought, the city wall is full of holes with laughing heads, and in each hole is a bedroom vent, this is a cave carved out from the inside out, and thousands of residents live in the cave.
As far as the eye could see, there were even cooking smoke rising from these holes all over the city wall, and Chu Huan could even hear the whispers of the residents behind him.
"No wonder the walled city is impregnable!" Hong Xuexue also sighed at what she saw in front of her, no wonder, the residents of the city are more or less wounded, once the foreign invasion, the residents living in the cave will take their homes to meet the enemy from the entrance of the cave, and the enemy may not have climbed the city wall, but was killed by the residents of the thousands of caves.
Yin Xiaoqi stared at the blood-colored city wall in front of him, and also sighed: "This is a natural fortress given by God, but it is a pity that this fortress was developed by humans first, if this barrier city is occupied by our clan, then how much will our clan's territory expand!"
Chu Huan glanced at Yin Xiaoqi, he didn't expect this kid to be young, he had so many thoughts, the intelligence of the fox clan is not false, it seems that this time Chu Huan also has to guard against this kid.
The Chaos Beast Domain is mixed, Chu Huan wants to use Yin Xiaoqi to enter the Chaos Beast Domain, and at the same time, he also wants to prevent this kid from selling the three of them, the cunning of the fox clan, it is better to guard against it.
Soon, the roar under his feet became louder and louder, and the four of them were rushing white waves under their feet, Chu Huan did not hesitate, he pulled out his long sword and cut off the vines of the hanging basket, and the hanging basket smashed into the water like a boulder.
"Boom!"
The moment the huge hanging basket fell into the water, it was swept out by the fierce white waves for more than ten meters, and the icy river water also rushed into the hanging basket in the blink of an eye, and the water instantly submerged Chu Huan's knees!
But Chu Huan didn't have a trace of panic, just looked at Hong Xuexue with a smile, stretched out his palm to Hong Xuexue, and made a single palm sunny day.
"Drink!"
Hong Xue Xue Jiao snorted, jumped out of the water, the jade foot single point Chu Huan palm, independent palm, the white as jade eyebrows, also bloomed more radiant white.
A magic pattern that looks like fog and not fog and is like a cold snow lotus shines brightly in Hong Xuexue's eyebrows!
"Boom!"
Hong Xue Xueyu held a sword in her hand, and a sword slammed into the river water under her feet, and suddenly the cold air rose, and the entire river surface seemed to have experienced a cold day, and a huge ice cube rose from the feet of the four people, like a big boat, dragging the four people along the river.
Hong Xuexue's attribute is the Nine Fog Cold Lotus, doing things in the water, she is as simple as going home to eat, which also saves Chu Huan a lot of effort.
The water of the river was fierce, and the four of Chu Huan stepped on the ice floe and went straight downstream, and soon left the jurisdiction of the barrier city and entered the unknown beast domain, this area is no longer the territory of human beings, there are no tall castles here, and human peddlers wandering around doing business.
Instead, there were more strong humanoids with dark green skin and fangs in their mouths, rampaging through the jungle like wild boars, and these creatures saw Chu Huan and the others, and they all let out angry roars at the three of them, and a dull beating sound of beating their chests and feet soon rose in the entire jungle.
Even the four of Chu Huan were drifting in the center of the river, and the orcs on these banks threw wooden javelins directly at the ice floe, and many javelins landed in the river at Chu Huan's feet.
It seems that this unknown area is really hostile to humans!
Soon, under the control of Hong Xuexue, the ice floe broke away from the main stream of the river and entered a branch, with more and more orcs on both sides of the river, and a huge wooden castle appeared in the distance.
"It's here!"
Yin Xiaoqi stood up excitedly, ripped off the hood on his head, and looked excitedly at the huge wooden castle in the distance.
Chu Huan also stood up in shock, although this castle was much smaller than the Fortress City, even larger than Lin Hai City, he was only one-tenth the size of Lin Hai City.
But this city is made of wood, covered with horns and skeletons, and the walls are full of beast canine teeth, arranged in an orderly manner like barbs, and it is not the same scene as the human world at all.
And at this moment, at the moment when Yin Xiaoqi grabbed the hood and revealed his face, the orcs on both sides of the river opened their eyes widen violently, and became silent for a moment, and then like a little wolf dog beaten by their master, they whimpered aggrievedly, lying on both sides of the river and did not dare to get up.
"Stinky boy, I can't see that your status is not low! Why didn't you pull your hat off just now!" Chu Huan couldn't help but smile bitterly, and jumped at Yin Xiaoqi, who hurriedly covered his head and shouted in pain: "Big brother, a person who has no courage is not worthy of stepping on the territory of the beast clan! Please respect the traditions of my clan! Don't look at you saving me, but the test is still necessary!"
"You have to be your uncle, the moment your master saves you, you should know if I have the courage or not! You want to give me a dismount!" Chu Huan made a gesture to fight again, but Hong Xuexue quietly pulled Chu Huan's sleeve and pointed into the distance.
