Chapter 1131: Temptation III
To go or not to go.
There is really nothing tangled in this question.
Lu Sheng ordered all the men and horses that day, selected three people from the Phantom Demon Gate, and with him, left Cyril in the evening and went straight to Asomu.
Asomu is more than 3,000 kilometers away from Cyril and has to cross a place called the Pearl Strait. A transfer to a boat is required.
Three more strongholds are needed to be reinforced.
Lu Sheng carried a piece of fleshy specimen of Sun No. 1. Leave straight along the abandoned highway in the established direction.
Leaving from Cyril, for three consecutive days, all the way to clear the monsters and advance, the speed is not fast. The car ran out of gas quickly, and there was no place to refuel on the way.
Lu Sheng simply took people out of the car and walked forward.
He vaguely guessed a little about the purpose of the weird budding girl, but the core purpose of his coming to this world was to find his relatives.
So whether it was a trap or not, he had to run it himself. Especially when Cyril and Assomu had no communication contact.
Along the way, Lu Sheng encountered a lot of strange monsters that seemed to be powerful, but as a top powerhouse classified as A-level, these monsters were nothing more than papier-mΓ’chΓ© in front of him, and they could easily be pierced and solved.
The so-called A grade, in fact, represents the meaning of invincible. The corpse insect princess is invincible, and the definition that Lu Sheng defines himself is also invincible.
But who is more powerful between the A-level still has to be known through the fight.
...........
...........
Snow was falling, paving the entire plain in a thick white color.
Like a white desert, the trees and meadows on the plains are no longer visible. Instead, patches of dazzling white snow appeared.
On the highway, the four of Lu Sheng drove a Mustang jeep that they had just picked up from the side of the road, and they were speeding forward.
Something seemed to have fallen from the bottom of the jeep, colliding with the chassis from time to time, making an unpleasant deafening noise.
Lu Sheng sat in the passenger seat, playing with a green spike that had just been pulled off the monster.
Next to him was Mark. The two strong men behind him were elite disciples of the Illusion Demon Sect, and they volunteered to follow Lu Sheng to act together.
They are two brothers, one named Ken and the other named Andy.
Both of them are 1.9 meters tall, only a little shorter than Lu Sheng, strong and sturdy, and weigh more than 16 people, so they are not easy to mess with at first glance.
The engine of the car was driven for a while, then it quickly stopped and let the car slide forward.
Slippery, frozen ground, like a mirror, can easily slide a heavy jeep weighing up to a ton forward.
"Teacher, the weather is a little wrong. Mark looked up at the sky.
The black clouds were rolling overhead, gloomy and oppressive, and the temperature was very muggy.
In the distance, a gray, snake-like cloud slowly rotated, as if it were a real living thing, constantly floating.
"It's going to rain...."Lu Sheng looked up at the sky. "Freezing rain, sleet. β
"Then let's find a place to take refuge. Mark never doubted Lu Sheng's judgment.
The car swerved to the left and quickly left the main road and entered the barren grassland.
There are often some abandoned stone buildings on the grassland, most of which are former stone relics. There are even occasional stone castles that are not too big or small.
The car slowed down and searched for a while, and soon found a small abandoned earthen fort near a peach grove.
The earthen fort has a deep moat, and there are large yellow peach groves in the semicircle on the side, and the faint sound of water can be faintly heard.
"It's good, check to see if there are any ghosts, and then choose a place to stay. Lu Sheng commanded.
"Yes. β
The car slowly drove straight towards the earthen fort.
When they stopped at the stone bridge in front of the gate of the earthen fort, several people faintly poked out of the earthen fort.
The men wore slightly worn camouflage uniforms and carried firearms in their hands.
"Who?"
A voice shouted from within.
"Passing by, spending the night. Mark replied quickly and loudly.
There was a pause inside.
"You are on the left, we are on the right!"
"Good!"
Mark saw that the other party should also be temporarily borrowing the caravan here.
There are a lot of caravans coming and going here, and many of them are carrying their own armed guards, etc., otherwise it will be difficult for ordinary people to move an inch in the chaotic and dangerous wilderness.
The car slowly drove along the stone bridge into the earthen fort and entered the left area as agreed.
found a vacant place to stop, and Mark and Lu Sheng got out of the car one after another.
The entire high walls of the earthen fort were quite spacious, about the size of a football field, and the four of them occupied one side. Five people on the opposite side took sides.
There was a bonfire burning on the other side, the red flames were more than a man high, and the crackling firewood was constantly exploding.
Mark quickly found a spacious corner of the city wall, and used the rain shelter on the car to open it overhead to make a simple tent resting spot.
The other two began to quickly light a fire and cook.
Lu Sheng took out a small black metal box from his backpack, opened the box, and there was a white metal box inside, and opened the white box again, and between the black velvet inside, there was a round piece of flesh the size of a pearl lying quietly.
Lu Sheng pinched out the meat grains, gently pinched some powder with his fingernails, and then put the meat grains back into the box, put them layer by layer, and put them back into the backpack.
Then he grabbed some snow powder around at random, found some stones and weeds, piled them together, and then sprinkled the meat powder in his palm evenly on the mess.
"Teacher, what are you doing?" Mark set up the tent and came over to watch Lu Sheng sprinkle the powder curiously.
"Cooking. β
"Cooking?" Mark's face was stunned.
"We're running out of dry food, we have to save some, and this meal will be served while there are still materials around. β
At this time, the bonfire on one side was also lit, and Lu Sheng leaned over, took a burning firewood, and approached the snowdrift opposite him.
Hiss....
Gradually, a sound like insects devouring food began to come from the snowdrifts.
Soon, under the hellish sight of Mark and the other two, the snowdrift in front of Lu Sheng began to change strangely.
The white snowdrifts were originally mixed with grass and stones, but at this time, both the snow powder, the grass roots, and the stones began to melt as quickly as candles.
Everything turned into a puddle of flesh-colored slime in just a dozen seconds. The slime continued to corrode the ground, but it didn't take long, about twenty seconds, for the corrosion process to slowly stop.
"The activity only lasts half a minute. Lu Sheng looked at his watch. Reached out and picked up the clump of slime.
The whole mucus had quickly solidified into a colloid.
"Let's take it and make the soup. This nutrition will be good. Lu Sheng handed the gum to Mark.
"???" Mark took the object with a confused expression, this amber gelatinous substance, swaying in his hand, like a large flesh-colored jelly, the size of a washbasin.
"This is an emergency food, an emergency army meal made from the core cells of Bahan's flesh. Everything except metals can be converted into proteins and fats that can be used to provide us with supplies. Lu Sheng explained.
β...... Can you eat this thing?" Mark was speechless.
"Of course, give it a try. Lu Sheng smiled.
Soon, Mark used it to cook a large pot of broth that looked delicious. The aroma in the pot has not yet fully cooked, and it has already wafted out.
Even the strange team on the opposite side couldn't help but cast their eyes here frequently.
Lu Sheng walked up and took the lead in scooping a spoonful of blowing, and raised his head to drink.
"It's fresh. β
"Teacher.... Are you sure we can eat this?" Mark said speechlessly.
"You used to be no, but now you can. Lu Sheng replied earnestly.
The flesh of Bahan is highly poisonous. Ordinary people who don't have a good physique will die if they eat it. But Mark and the others have practiced the Illusion Fist for so long, and they have also taken the diluted version of Bahan's Flesh for so long, and their resistance has been greatly enhanced.
Naturally, there are no side effects after eating this broth.
"Okay...."Seeing that the teacher had eaten, the other three had no choice but to take out their bowls and drink their own bowls.
Rumble...
From time to time, there was a thunderclap in the sky.
In the black sky outside the earthen fort, there was a faint flash of blue lightning.
After a while, a faint sound of rain slowly sounded.
After Lu Sheng ate half a pot of broth. Feeling almost full, he stood up and leaned against the body, lowered his head and lit a cigarette for himself, and took a soft puff.
From a distance, he saw the group of people on the other side, who seemed to be laughing and saying something around the campfire. Two girls covered their mouths and bent over, and one man opened his hands and was arguing about something.
"It's good to be young. Lu Sheng couldn't help but smile.
"Teacher, you're not too big, are you?" Mark leaned over and took a cigarette and smoked it.
"You don't understand. The capacity of life is not just based on age. Lu Sheng said lightly. He saw that the person opposite suddenly got up, and a man looked down as if he had a device on his waist, and then his face changed greatly, and he hurriedly said something to the rest of the people.
The thunder was rolling in the sky, and they were all speaking in dialects, and Lu Sheng couldn't understand what they were saying.
But to his surprise, after listening to the man's words, the rest of the people all stood up in a bit of a panic.
"Something seems to have happened?" Mark wondered.
Click...
Suddenly, there was a faint sound of stamping on the snow, coming from the outside of the earthen fort. It seems that many, many creatures are approaching the side of the bunker at the same time.
"What's that?" Mark pulled out the tactical dagger on his thigh with his backhand and walked to the city gate to look out.
"Holy!!" he was so excited that he almost jumped from his place.
Lu Sheng's figure flashed, and he also went to the gate of the city to look out.
Outside the city gate, countless black figures were densely packed on the snow, swarming towards the earthen fort.
The figure is invisible, and the field of vision is almost entire, endless.
These figures are all composed of bald and gray-skinned people with short stature and hunched backs.
These people have no eyes, only the rest of their facial features, and most of them hold stone spears in their hands, and the strong muscles on their bodies make them look difficult to match.
"Eyeless Man!Damn!It's the Void Tide!!" A harsh but intelligible voice finally erupted from the side of the campfire opposite.
