Chapter 72: Mountain

Walking along the riverbed is equivalent to walking in the woods, and you can't walk far in a day, and the direction of the river is generally very tortuous, and it is easy to lose your sense of direction in the woods if you follow the river.

You can ride a bicycle on a concrete road, and the speed of progress is not comparable to walking in the woods.

Moreover, the cement road leads straight to the east and west, so you don't have to worry about getting lost.

After all, rivers are naturally formed, while concrete roads are man-made projects.

Although those two vans and the humans behind them are likely to be a huge threat, Lu Chao still wants to find out the truth behind all this. Maybe if you find the starting point of those two vans, you can find clues to this strange place and why he and Yaya were hijacked here.

There are also disadvantages to taking cement roads.

It's too obvious, and it might be a target for ambushers.

If you get the "Armor Strengthening Technique" as soon as possible and have achieved success in cultivation, and condense the dark energy armor outside the body, at least you can not be the first to be seconds when you encounter an ambush.

Later, you can find a way to escape or find a way to get back to the field.

As you can imagine, it is impossible to explore the world, find out the truth behind it, and completely avoid all risks. If you're too cautious, sometimes you'll miss an opportunity.

He couldn't have given up the concrete road for fear of being ambushed and walked through the woods instead. And even if you are walking in the woods, you may inadvertently fall into a trap set by others, and you may also encounter an ambush from the bushes or the canopy of trees.

In the end, Lu Chao decided to continue east along the cement road.

Lu Chao rode on the road again, bringing Yaya, Xiao Hei, a large bag of dried fish, some common tools, and his umbrella crossbow.

……

Ride.

Ride.

The trees on both sides kept receding.

After waking up from a coma, Xiao Hei has grown a lot older than before, weighing almost thirty kilograms. Although Lu Chao's physical strength is not what it used to be, if Xiao Hei, who weighs thirty kilograms, lies on his back again, he can't stand it, and the bicycle may not be able to stand it.

But Lu Chao doesn't have to worry about this anymore, Xiao Hei's physical strength is extremely abundant now, and he no longer has to jump on the car and lie behind Lu Chao, and spread his four hooves, which is much faster than Lu Chao's bicycle.

It even often ran into the woods by itself, Lu Chao didn't care about it, just continued to ride, and when he remembered it, blew a few dog whistles, and after a few minutes, at most ten minutes, Xiao Hei would appear near the bicycle.

Sometimes it's catching up from behind, sometimes it's waiting on the concrete road ahead.

Xiao Hei's hair is getting darker and darker, and it looks more and more like the strange beast black wolf that Lu Chao had seen before, but it still doesn't have the kind of black mist armor outside its body, I don't know if it's because it's too young.

Or maybe it's just an ordinary black wolf, even if it eats the crystal nucleus of a black bear, it can't turn into a strange beast.

I wonder if anything will change after it ceases to be asleep.

When Lu Chao was riding, he was still practicing the "Body Forging Technique", deliberately pulling the 'qi' in his and Yaya's bodies to circulate on his two legs, which could greatly reduce the fatigue of his legs.

His physique is also slowly improving in the process of cultivating while riding.

……

The woods on both sides of the road kept receding, starting in the morning and continuing until noon, with only woods on either side.

The river was never seen again, and Xiao Hei did not find a new place to stay.

Lu Chao hesitated a little.

Do you want to continue along the concrete road to the east? Or do you want to go back to the river?

If you go back, will you ride here again tomorrow?

The river was temporarily empty of water and fish, and there was little point in going back to the original stronghold, and he couldn't stay there forever.

Let's move on, if there is still nothing new to discover before three o'clock in the afternoon, he will camp in place, he can now cut wood with both fists, and should be able to build a simple camp quickly.

After fighting with the black bear, Lu Chao spent most of the month camping in the woods, and he also had experience in this area.

After deciding down, Lu Chao continued to ride on the cement road.

Around two o'clock in the afternoon, there was finally some change in the front.

A mountain appeared, right in front of the concrete road!

The mountain is not too high, it may only be a few hundred meters, although Lu Chao can see the mountain, but the distance between him and the mountain is not close, and after riding for more than half an hour, he feels that the mountain is still in the same place.

At four o'clock in the afternoon, after two hours of riding, Lu Chao finally came to the foot of the mountain.

The concrete road was not affected by the mountain, but turned into a tunnel through the mountain.

The tunnel is very long, and there is only a small point of light when you stand on this side and look at the exit on the opposite side.

If it weren't for the fact that the cement road was very straight, it would be difficult to see that point of light.

"I thought there were only woods in this space, nothing else!"

"It's great to have a mountain!"

Lu Chao looked at the mountain in front of him and looked very happy, as if he had seen the river at the beginning.

Moreover, there is also the advantage of having a mountain, that is, you can dig a hole in the mountain tonight and quickly set up a camp.

It's not early, and in two or three hours it will be dark.

Lu Chao decided to settle down first, and then continue to explore to the top of the mountain or the other side of the mountain tomorrow.

Now he has no turning back but to move on.

He didn't know what he would find if he continued east, and he didn't know what he was looking for.

Anyway, it's better than being stuck in one place to death.

Explore a little more of the area, and maybe you'll have a deeper understanding of the space, at least why you're here, and even if you're dead, you'll be able to understand it.

Lu Chao was lucky, and after walking along the foot of the mountain into the woods for more than ten minutes, he quickly found a suitable place to stay.

A sunken mountain, with a rock on the top, and two large trees in front of it, the canopy of which is close to the rock on top, providing shelter from the wind and rain.

Lu Chao only needs to cut down some more trees now, and cover the two trees and the mountain, so that he can build a simple camp.

For wild habitats, the requirements should not be too high, and it is enough to ensure that the beasts cannot rush in directly at night.

If the beast forcibly wanted to rush in, the movement it made would definitely wake Lu Chao up. If this kind of thing really happens, Lu Chao's 'iron fist' that has been cultivated for so long will have a chance to try.

Hopefully, it's not a pack of beasts, nor a beast that outweighs a black bear.

With Lu Chao's strength, the black bear that weakened last time was already his current limit.
