Chapter 151: The Mountain of Life and Death
Just when Xia Yang was puzzled, he saw a strange scene: in front of the place where he and Li Tong were standing, the wall covered with vines suddenly moved, and the quiet vines seemed to be alive, and as soon as the village chief spoke, they began to move to both sides, revealing a one-person wide road leading to the roof of the hollow hole.
"The village chief's ability is to manipulate plants." Li Tong saw Xia Yang's strange expression, so he explained with a smile.
Xia Yang followed behind Li Tong and walked inside. In the slightly dark house, it is not as far as Xia Yang thinks, but there is only a lack of that gorgeous color, and the brightness is not bad.
Xia Yang looked up and looked ahead, and Li Tong stood beside an old man. The old man was about fifty or sixty years old, his beard was gray, but his face was very young, and his body was not as old as other old men, except for some wrinkles at the corners of his eyes, the skin in other places showed a youthful aura that did not match his beard at all.
"Village chief, this is Xia Yang, he came to this planet from the earth!" Li Tong explained.
"Are you really from Earth?" The village chief said with some surprise.
Xia Yang nodded and said, "I came here by accident, and I just heard from Brother Li that there was once a person named Mo Wentian who also came here from the earth, does the village chief still remember this person?" ”
"Don't ask God...... Of course, I remember that his talent is unique, and he is a very rare young man with a compassionate heart. The village chief was a little nostalgic because he was caught up in the memories.
"And where did he end up? Have you left the planet? ”
The village chief shook his head and said, "I don't know if he left this planet, but he also came here from the altar where you appeared. He didn't stay here long before he left the Mountain of Life and Death. This planet is the base camp of soul sucking beasts, there are soul sucking beasts everywhere, and many aspiring awakened people usually travel elsewhere in order to completely destroy soul sucking beasts, and our group, because of the task of guarding the altar, stayed in the mountain of life and death. ”
"Do you know where he went?" Xia Yang asked anxiously.
"All I heard from him was that he was going to find a way to completely destroy the Soul Sucking Beast. I don't know where I went. You're looking for him to leave this planet for ideas, right? The village chief asked wisely.
Xia Yang didn't deny it, and said, "Yes, I don't know if the village chief knows how to leave this planet?" ”
"In order to let future generations stay here with peace of mind, the ancestors did not leave any record of the earth, and as for the way to leave, even the old man did not know. The altar you came to has no star gate function. If you want to leave, you have to find another way. The village chief's words made Xia Yang's heart feel like ashes.
Xia Yang thought to himself, it seems that if he wants to leave, he can only rely on his own efforts. The altar can't send him away, so the only way for him to get out is to rely on the game world, if he can get to the ultimate map from the game. You might find a way out of this planet.
I just don't know if I can still enter the game here? Xia Yang couldn't wait to try it immediately.
"Don't be so depressed, young man, there must be a way before the car reaches the mountain. You will live in the Mountain of Life and Death first, it is better to live with Li Tong first. Li Tong, Xia Yang, I'll leave it to you. ”
"Village Chief, don't worry." Li Tong replied solemnly.
When Xia Yang and Li Tong walked out of the village chief's house. The dazzling colors in the sky were slowly fading, and the whole world seemed to be darkening, and after asking Li Tong, Xia Yang knew that this meant that night was coming......
The time here may not be the same as the time on Earth, and Xia Yang doesn't know what time it is. In the evening, Li Tong took out some unknown beast meat, cut it and drank some wine with Xia Yang. Then they went to sleep.
It can be seen that Li Tong's family is really poor.
The only oil lamp is still in Xia Yang's room, and Xia Yang has not seen any other furniture and the like, I don't know if it is the popular natural style here or really primitive, Xia Yang saw that Li Tong's hunting weapon turned out to be a homemade wooden bow, and the arrow was made by a very simple wooden stick after sharpening the front. It is very appropriate to describe Li Tong's house with four walls. The yellow earthen walls were not very high, and they were painted with a layer of black and unknown things, but they were not too rough, and there was no decoration on the walls except for some specimens of wild beasts.
Xia Yang just noticed that this is a village, but it is actually very large, there are countless houses, and it has been extending outward, which seems to occupy a huge area. Listening to the barking of dogs in his ears, and the chirping of some unknown night insects outside, looking at the stars overhead, Xia Yang fell asleep unconsciously.
Xia Yang was awakened by the soft sound of a Suosuo. It turned out that Li Tong was going to hunt in the back mountain, Xia Yang thought about it and decided to go with Li Tong, he mainly wanted to see the place where he was unconscious yesterday, maybe he could find something.
Li Tong disagreed at first, saying that the soul sucking beast was extremely powerful, and he was afraid that Xia Yang would be harmed, so he didn't let Xia Yang go with him. But Xia Yang said that he just wanted to see the place where they were unconscious, and Li Tong agreed to Xia Yang.
The two of them simply ate something, it was a soup made of fruits, the sweet and sour taste was very good, and Xia Yang drank two large bowls in one go.
Li Tong carried his wooden bow on his back, and then found a long wooden spear for Xia Yang. This wooden spear was extremely heavy in the hand, not at all like wood, and seemed to catch up with the weight of metal.
This is the lair of the soul sucking beasts, and they can often burst out of various soul crystals, so the people in the village are not born awakens, and they can also learn various abilities by eating the soul crystals on the soul sucking beasts, but the real best ability, such as Xia Yang's teleportation, is impossible to burst out from the soul sucking beast, and what generally appears is a very ordinary ability.
Xia Yang had never used a spear, but it was difficult to refuse Li Tong's kindness, so he stuck the spear on his waist and walked with Li Tong to the back mountain. On the way, the two walked and chatted, and Xia Yang roughly understood the situation of this place from Li Tong's mouth.
The Mountain of Life and Death is the place where the Awakened first arrived, and as many Awakened people went out to explore, villages and towns were gradually established in other places, which shows that the super reproduction ability and survival ability of human beings are really stronger than Xiaoqiang. The front of the mountain of life and death where Li Tong and his people live is flat, and according to Li Tong, if it extends outward, there is a natural barrier there, which is a cliff, and it is impossible to climb up at all.
Half of the flat land is surrounded by cliffs, and the other half is the forest known as the back mountain, where the altar is located, and it is also the main source of food for everyone. There are many villages like Li Tong and the others near the back mountain, and each village is headed by its own village head, and their common purpose is to protect the altar.
Guarding the altar is the common mission of the villagers around the Mountain of Life and Death.
