Chapter 476: Monsters in the Shadows
Three o'clock in the morning.
The alarm clock suddenly rang screeching.
Chen Shouyi opened his eyes, quickly pressed the alarm clock, got up and got dressed.
After washing up in the bathroom, he took the shell girl, picked up the sword and went out and walked downstairs.
Zhu Xueqing hadn't come out yet, and Wang Lie had already gotten up.
At this time, he was in the living room, practicing the thirty-six warm-up of the body refining body, which was the second optimized version of the book of knowledge that he had passed out.
Chen Shouyi was a little surprised in his heart, but he didn't expect someone to finally practice.
After finishing one set, Wang Lie breathed a long sigh of relief, came back to his senses and saw Chen Shouyi next to him, his face couldn't help but be a little unnatural, but he quickly adjusted his mentality and humbly asked: "Mr. Chen, please give me some advice." ”
"It's been a good practice. Chen Shouyi said casually, feeling that his attitude was a little perfunctory, so he continued: "It's just that the action connection is still a little not smooth enough, don't practice in one style, the effect will be better." ”
Wang Lie's eyes lit up, and he immediately tried it, but before he was halfway through his practice, he was interrupted, and said self-deprecatingly: "The set of Chen's body refining method you modified is too difficult, and I have only been practicing for a long time!"
Chen's refining method?
Chen Shouyi's eyes lit up, and the name was good.
"I used to be like this too, just practice more!"
The two chatted while waiting, and after a few minutes of work, Zhu Xueqing also finished washing up.
A few people ate some supper sent by the soldiers, and then went out at night.
......
Outside, the wind was biting, and the occasional snowflakes fell.
The pavement is hard, as if solidified into solid stone.
Son Kui Province is located in the northwest and has colder winters than Jiangnan Province.
Especially now that it is still late at night, almost all of them are minus thirty or forty degrees, and it is completely dripping into ice.
Fortunately, the weakest strength here is also a martial artist, with strong qi and blood, and he is not afraid of this kind of wind and cold in a short time.
The crowd hurried with their heads covered, passing by deserted villages from time to time.
In order to curb the spread of terrorist forces, just in case, the population in the fringe areas has been relocated on a large scale, and even the nearby peaks have been burned, making it look cold and desolate, and there is no trace of popularity.
The crowd did not take the avenue, but walked quickly along the rural path.
"I ran into a shadow creature in front of me last time!" Zhu Xueqing reminded.
Chen Shouyi heard the words and looked ahead, it was dark in the distance, and he couldn't see anything at all?
However, in just half a minute, Chen Shouyi keenly sensed a trace of malice, he turned his head suddenly, and saw a blurred figure hidden in the shadow in the corner of the wall not far away.
It lay on its stomach like a beast, its body seemingly blurred, merging with the shadows.
If you don't pay attention, it's easy to be overlooked.
"What the hell?"
He took a step, and in an instant, he walked more than ten meters away, and the shadow just wanted to escape, but it was too late.
A large hand easily grabbed its neck and lifted it up.
Its body was covered with scales with a black halo, unusually oozing, with sharp black claws on its hands and feet, and a pair of gray-yellow eyes, with a kind of tyranny and ferocity, exuding an evil and terrifying aura all over its body.
It's like a monster in a nightmare.
It bears no resemblance to humans at all.
If he hadn't known that this was a human being, Chen Shouyi would have even thought it was another species.
At this time, Zhu Xueqing and Wang Lie also came over quickly.
"That's what we're seeing!" Wang Lie said.
"Hopefully, that's all. Chen Shouyi said in a deep voice.
It hissed and screamed, struggling fiercely, as soon as Chen Shouyi's hand was released, the monster fell to the ground, and before it could escape, a big foot stepped on its head, with a slight force, with a crisp bone cracking sound.
The skull was crushed in an instant.
......
It didn't take long for everyone to rush to Guangcheng County.
Guangcheng County, a small county town with a population of four or five hundred thousand, is no different from an ordinary county seat.
At this time, before dawn, the steam trucks loaded with goods drove by the side of the road in an endless stream, coupled with the patrol soldiers passing by from time to time, which made Chen Shouyi have a rare illusion, as if this was not a dangerous place at all, but an ordinary county town.
The crowd hid in the corner, quietly waiting for a group of soldiers to pass by.
Wang Lie asked, "Should we go directly to Tu'an City, or should we take a look at the situation here first?" ”
The city of Toan is the source and final destination of everything.
"Let's stay for a day or two and see the situation!" Chen Shouyi pondered and said cautiously.
For some reason, Chen Shouyi always felt that the whole city was filled with a gloomy and manic atmosphere.
There's nothing wrong with being careful.
"Okay!" Wang Lie had no objection.
If you want to fight for power and profit, you must be prepared to encounter danger, others will not help you, and even fall into the ground.
It's not psychological gloom, it's the wisdom of survival.
An old martial artist like him understands this truth better.
It's getting dark.
A few people found a hotel open on the side of the road.
"Three private rooms?"
An obese young woman wrapped in what looked like a zongzi glanced at the three of them sleepily, covered her mouth and yawned, and said, "Take the residence permit, fifty for a single room, and one hundred for a deposit." ”
"If you don't have a residence permit, but if you have an ID card, can we add money?" Chen Shouyi said.
In order to prevent the wanton spread of cults, the population cannot move freely, and a letter of introduction from a work unit is required to go to other places.
The obese young woman was completely sleepy, and immediately turned her face and said: "Let's go, don't hurt me, I won't accept a residence permit here!"
"Is the investigation very strict here?" Wang Lie stepped forward and asked in a low voice.
"You're from outside?" said the fat young woman's face with a hint of wariness.
"We are people from the government, we have come to investigate the situation here, and I hope you can cooperate honestly. Wang Lie took out a martial artist certificate and said solemnly.
Wang Lie's burly and strong figure, combined with the golden national emblem on the martial artist certificate, immediately frightened the young woman.
"I ...... I can't say, you find someone else, go quickly!" said the young woman incoherently, her face pale.
"Why can't you say, is someone threatening you?" Chen Shouyi asked next to him.
"I didn't ...... No, I don't know anything...... I'm just an ordinary person, don't ask me......" She backed away, looking suspiciously from side to side, then turned and ran.
Several people glanced at each other, looked helpless, and exited the hotel.
"It's the same as that villager last time!" Zhu Xueqing said solemnly.
"What do they seem to be afraid of?" Wang Lie said, "Do you think it could be those shadow monsters?"
"It should be the source of fear!" Chen Shouyi said, feeling a little depressed in his heart, he exhaled: "Since the order here is still there, go directly to the county government here!"
"It's okay!" Wang Lie said.
A few people were walking on the street, Chen Shouyi looked up, the sky was red, and the bright red glow in the early morning was like a fire.
