Chapter 6: Mr. Six (1st Update)
"Who's over there, get out of here!" Xu Chu shouted into the depths of the corridor.
His loud and rough voice shook the corridors of the ruins, like a small earthquake.
But there was no response from the depths of the hallway, instead the footsteps were getting closer......
Shang Yunmu's heart beat faster, he had just experienced the devastation of the evil wind before, and now he was full of awe of this continent, and he didn't know when there would be a new crisis. The three of them stood side by side, their eyes wide open in the direction of the footsteps.
"Sand—"
"Rustle—"
The footsteps grew clearer, and even the breathing of all but three people could be heard in the air, as if a living being was about to arrive in the darkness. In such an uninhabited ruins, what kind of life forms would exist? Obviously, there were no life forms other than them outside the ruins, if it was said that this life existed in the ruins, then since Shang Yunmu and the others had already existed before they entered the ruins, why didn't they have to meet each other when they entered the depths of the ruins along the way?
"Be careful, be vigilant at all times. Xu Chu had already gathered a force in his hands, waiting for the owner of the footsteps to appear from the darkness.
The sound of breathing was getting clearer and clearer, and it was indeed the sound of breathing that existed outside of the three of them, because all three of them were holding their breath at the moment.
Suddenly, as the sound of footsteps stopped, a wolf-like monster covered in black spikes appeared in front of the three of them.
When they saw the monster in front of them, the three of them were stunned, and Shang Yunmu was the first to ask suspiciously, "What kind of monster is this?"
With the light of the corridor, the monster's face was exposed in front of everyone, and Cao Xian'er could see the origin of the monster at a glance, "This is a middle-level mysterious beast, a stinging wolf, which rarely appears in the north." It is said that they are all in groups, so I don't know why they are here at this moment......"
Shang Yunmu stroked his chest and breathed a sigh of relief.
"It turned out that it was only a mid-level mysterious beast, it scared me, I thought it was such a powerful thing. Shang Yunmu joked, because he knew that Xu Chu's strength was very strong during the Three Kingdoms period, so even if he appeared in a fantasy continent world, he would definitely be very strong.
But when Shang Yunmu looked into Xu Chu's eyes, he realized what a stupid idea he had to underestimate his enemy.
Xu Chu's eyes were very gloomy, if in normal times, with the strength of his ninth-order Xuan Master, he could indeed hunt the thorn wolf in front of him, but the problem was that when facing the evil wind before, Xu Chu had exhausted most of his Xuan power, and it was wasted on making a protective layer to protect the three of them, and at this moment, there was only a little bit of Xuan power left on his body.
"You can't get rid of this monster. Shang Yunmu asked weakly, and when he looked at the sharp thorns on the thorn wolf's body, a sense of crisis on the verge of death arose in his heart.
At this time, Xu Chu's expression became as if he was at a loss, and he spread his hands and said: "What are you kidding, my Xuan Qi is used to make a protective layer for you just now, and protect us from being swept away by the evil wind......"
When Shang Yunmu heard this, a layer of cold sweat seemed to be covered between his eyebrows and eyes, he looked around, and finally stopped his eyes on Cao Xian'er's face, and he put his last hope on Cao Xian'er's body.
Cao Xian'er felt Shang Yunmu's hesitant gaze, and the corners of her mouth showed a pleasant arc of smile, "Don't worry, wrap it up on me, although I am not as strong as Uncle Xu Chu, but I am also a third-order mystic master, and it is not a big problem to solve the thorn wolf." ”
As soon as Cao Xian'er's words fell, the ground trembled slightly, and a small earthquake-like sound came out.
The sound of the earthquake was filled with the incomparable force of the collision, and the three of them unconsciously took a few steps back, and after a while, dozens of thorny wolves appeared behind the thorn wolf, which seemed to be moving in groups......
"And now?" Shang Yunmu asked.
Cao Xian'er shouted loudly: "Run!"
......
The three of them ran wildly, shuttling through the entire ruins cave at a rapid pace, and the colorful old images in the ruins quickly retreated, always following closely behind the stinging wolf with red eyes.
The wolf is an animal that never stops without biting its prey, and it would be a shame not to have a human creature in this quaint ruins for too long.
"There is light ahead! Brother Mu, we are saved!"
Cao Xian'er saw the light at the end of the ruins and shouted excitedly, the thorn wolves are mutated wolves living in caves, as long as they get out of the cave and see the light, those thorn wolves will not follow up anymore.
Shang Yunmu panted and said, "Okay! If I can't find the exit, I won't be able to run." ”
The boy looked at the girl in front of him with a smile on his face, his body was still fragrant when he first met, and there was no sweat on his face, it seemed that running like this was easy for her, and it was not a laborious thing at all, on the other hand, he was already sweating profusely at this time.
However, it is strange to say that Shang Yunmu often teams up with his roommates to play basketball or go out to exercise on weekdays, but I don't know why his physical strength is not as good as that of a pampered daughter of King Wei.
Could it be that this is the world of difference brought about by cultivation?
Xu Chu saw the unbelievability in Shang Yunmu's eyes, turned around and grabbed his little arm and dragged it forward, he scolded with spit in his mouth: "Boy, don't be in a daze, do you want to cook dinner for the group of wolf cubs behind you?"
Shang Yunmu was startled and shook his head, at this time, he had been dragged out by Xu Chu in front of the entrance of the cave.
As the three of them ran out of the hole, they looked back.
The wolves behind them howled at the entrance of the cave, but the wolves just didn't dare to step out of the hole, as if they had been planted with some taboo, and sunlight was their most feared natural enemy
Shang Yunmu collapsed to the ground, panting with relief, he was out of breath and now just wanted to take a good rest.
He looked ahead and saw a vast desert, and it seemed that the ruins connected to the center of the desert.
"Isn't this the Hexi Desert?" Xu Chu looked at the desert in front of him, not feeling strange at all.
Cao Xian'er looked around carefully, and also showed the same gaze: "Yes, I remember that when my brother was on a long expedition to Xiqiang, he also brought Xian'er here. ”
At this time, Xu Chu seemed to remember the past, and said with emotion: "It was here that I fought with Ma Mengqi for 300 rounds, but unfortunately I couldn't tell the winner......
The Hexi Desert is less than 100 miles away from Xiliang City, as the battlefield of the battle between the Xiliang Army and the Wei Army, I don't know how many soldiers died here, the Wei Lord Cao Cao, who underestimated the enemy, was beaten by the vengeful Ma Mengqi here to cut off his beard and abandon his robe, here is a frightening place for the Wei soldiers who participated in the war at that time.
Cao Xian'er turned her head to look at the ruins, and then looked at the desert, she and Xu Chu had strayed into the ruins through the shallow part of the Hexi Desert before, but at this time, they unknowingly came to the middle of the desert, and she realized that the end of the ruins was originally connected to the depths of the desert.
