Chapter Forty-Nine: The Grey Monster
Shuofang is a city with a forest of buildings, and dozens of buildings are often crowded together to form a building community.
Between the building communities and the communities, there are factories, some are burning glass, some are smelting minerals, some are casting, and there are sacrifices, and different factories have different divisions of labor.
The ash robbery factory is located on the edge of Shuofang City, and there are also high-rise buildings nearby, according to Li Muge, these buildings are called Confined Towers.
"The building is where the poor in the city live. ”
Li Muge walked forward with his burden on his back and said: "囿 means a garden for captive animals, and the building is where the bottom people live. The houses here are old, dilapidated, small, and crowded. The people who live here are poor people like me, some of them are school boys, and some of them have come from the countryside to make a living. ”
He paused, hesitated, and said, "Many of the monsters that entered the city are also hiding here. Senior Brother Yun, what kind of monster are you?"
"I'm really not a youkai. Su Yun said helplessly.
"It doesn't matter if you're a monster, I can see that you're probably a bison demon. In fact, some of my junior disciples in Wenchang School Palace are monsters. But the other schools are not the same, they are mostly old scholars, shouting and killing monsters. ”
Li Muge walked in front, only to see that the snow was falling heavier and heavier, making Shuofang City look foggy.
"I've seen youkai many times in the city, and the little brother and family who live next door to me seem to be all youkai...... Strange, why is there so much snow?"
Li Muge looked up at the sky and said in surprise: "Shuofang City doesn't have such a big snow this season. This snow came strangely. ”
He shook his head.
Hua Hu suddenly said: "Xiaoyun, when humans and demons were born one hundred and fifty years ago, it was also a day of heavy snow, and heavy snow covered the mountains. ”
Su Yun's heart was awe-inspiring.
According to the records in the ancient book of the Burial Dragon Tomb, Gelong, an academician of the Heavenly Dao, when he entered the Burial Dragon Tomb to summon the dragon spirit, it was also a sudden heavy snowfall, and the heavy snow sealed the mountain so that they could not leave.
"After the human demon came out of the Burial Dragon Tomb, it also snowed heavily in Tianshiyuan, and now it is the turn of Shuofang City. ”
Su Yun looked up at the sky, but saw that the snowflakes were getting bigger and bigger, each snowflake was the size of a palm, and it fluttered down: "It seems that the whole village has dinner, it should be Shuofang City." There is also the leader of the Heavenly Dao Academy, he should also be in Shuofang City, right? In the past hundred and fifty years, he has changed his appearance, but his extraordinary ability cannot be hidden. If he had stayed in Shuofang, one hundred and fifty years later, he would have been the most powerful man in the city, right?"
Of course, after the team leader walked out of Tianshiyuan, it is also possible that he did not stay in Shuofang.
"Senior Brother Yun, Senior Brother Hua, you see, there is the ash robbery factory in front of you. Li Muge pointed forward and said with a smile.
Su Yun suppressed the reverie in his heart and looked in the direction of his finger.
He was also curious about the so-called ash robbery plant.
In Li Muge's mouth, Shuofang is a city built on the ashes, and the contribution of the ash robbery factory to Shuofang is immeasurable!
Ahead, next to the official road is a very large factory, covering an area of about 1,000 acres, the factory is built on flat land, backed by a mountain, the factory is some flat houses, no high-rise buildings.
And the mountain is not large, it has been dug in half, and there are several holes in the mountain wall that are several feet high.
The factory is brightly lit, and there are some ox carts at the gate that transport the ashes passing by them, this kind of cart is driving in the ruts, the load is amazing, a small cart of ashes weighs thousands of catties, and the car is crushed to creak!
Each minecart has a bullock in front of the cart and a worker pushing it behind, which is very difficult.
Su Yun looked at the car, and saw that the ashes were not ashes, but large stones, the snow was falling, and the ashes were covered with a layer of white, but it could still be seen that the ashes were black, with a black gold-like luster.
Is it this strange thing that supports Shuofang City?
Su Yun was curious.
The dust-digging workers were shirtless in this winter, covered with the dust of the ashes, and dyed black, and the snow melted down on them, and ran down with sweat.
Sweat and blood mixed with black dust, and where they slipped through, they revealed the original color of their skin.
"The ash is mined and sent directly to the kilns. ”
Li Muge whispered: "Some people here are from the countryside of Shuofang, and some are monsters from the uninhabited area of Tianshiyuan, who have nowhere to make a living in the city, so they can only do some hard work. The work of the ash factory is tiring, dirty, and bitter, and there is a fear for life, and the people in the city are unwilling to do it. ”
Su Yun, Huahu and the others stopped and looked around, and Su Yun said silently in his heart: "I used to hear people from neighboring villages say that my child so-and-so works in the city and earns a lot of money, how is his life going. I think it's all these monsters, lying to their parents, and they don't want their parents to worry. ”
As soon as he thought of this, there was a sudden commotion from the ash robbery factory, only to hear someone shouting: "There is a monster rushing out of the ash robbery!"
In the mine, I don't know how many dark workers ran out in a panic, crying and screaming, someone fell, and ran with a roll, but they were trampled on many feet, and they did not move, not knowing whether they were dead or alive.
And the workers who were pushing the mine cart were also taken aback, hurriedly threw away the mine cart, ran away, and shouted, "The gray robber eats people!"
"Grey Looter?"
Su Yun looked around, only to see that the entrance of a mine cave in the half of the mountain in the mine suddenly exploded with a bang, and the rubble flew wildly, and a monster about the same color as the ashes suddenly flew out, flying close to the ground, and suddenly grabbed a person and landed on a minecart.
The minecart shook, there was a chewing sound from the cart, and blood gushed out from under the cart.
Soon, another pitch-black monster on the minecart flew up and landed on the bullock pulling the cart in front of him, and then with a snort, the bullock was pulled into the sky along with the minecart!
"That's a lot of strength!" Su Yun's face changed slightly, and he looked up into the air, only to see that the sky was pitch black, and he couldn't see where the monster was.
The minecart fell from the sky and fell to the ground with a bang, scattering ashes everywhere.
There was a cow cry in the sky, and then a rain of blood fell, and the next moment, a bloody cow skeleton smashed not far from the minecart.
Su Yun's face changed slightly, and he saw that there were fleeing miners everywhere, rushing towards the gate of the mine.
From time to time, there were terrible screams from the crowd, and people were constantly dancing into the air, apparently caught by monsters and eaten in the air!
The monster was as black as the ashes, and there was cover in the night, so you couldn't see where the monster was!
Li Muge's face also changed, and he hurriedly threw away his burdens, rushed to the factory, and shouted: "The gray monster has appeared again?
Su Yun closed his eyes and suddenly sensed a cloud of qi and blood flying in the sky, rushing towards them!
They were facing the gate, and the workers in the mines were pouring in this direction!
Obviously, the purpose of the monster is to block the gate so that everyone can not escape from the ash robbery factory, and they will all become its food!
The corners of Su Yun's eyes jumped, and he said in a deep voice: "Second brother, take Xiaofan and them to go first, and go to the confinement building to wait for me and Senior Brother Muge." ”
When Huahu heard this, he immediately pulled Qingqiuyue, threw the little girl up and rode on his neck, pulled the fox with one hand, and pulled the fox Xiaofan with the other hand to rush towards the building.
Su Yun closed his eyes and faced the crowd that seemed to be surging in like a tide.
Some people in the crowd have begun to change their shapes on the way to escape, some have pig faces, some have monkey heads, some have wolf heads, some have sheep's horns, and there are many types, running wildly across the crowd.
The miners around them were surprised by this, apparently knowing the identity of their partners who were working with them.
In Su Yun's qi and blood induction, the ash robbery monster rushing towards this side in the sky was like a chariot wheel, with a small dot in the middle, like the axle of the chariot, and there were spokes connected between the axle and the wheel.
With qi and blood alone, it is impossible to distinguish the specific form of the Grey Monster, and the Qi and Blood Sense can only judge the form of the Grey Monster's qi and blood, which is easy to make mistakes.
However, the gray monster is the same color as the dark sky, and it cannot be observed with the naked eye, and its location can only be distinguished by sensing qi and blood!
The Grey Raider attacked them from the air, and in Su Yun's qi and blood induction, he could "see" the Grey Raider falling, as if it was about to smash on the ground, but it didn't hit the ground, but flew whistling against the ground!
"It has wings, but there is no qi and blood circulating in the wings, so the wings do not appear in my qi and blood sense. Su Yun made a judgment in a flash of lightning.
At this time, Li Muge had already rushed into the mine, he obviously didn't know how to sense qi and blood, and the ash robber was black, so he didn't notice that the ash robber had actually come to the door of the ash robber!
Now there was chaos everywhere, people were in an uproar, and Su Yun couldn't inform him.
Rumble!
There was a loud bang, and the ash monster crashed into the minecart parked outside the mine gate, and the minecart full of ash was knocked over and rolled towards it.
Su Yun faced the rolling minecart and kept retreating, and the ashes in the minecart had already been scattered everywhere, and the smoke and dust were filled, making his vision blocked.
He simply closed his eyes and urged the flood furnace to transform, and his qi and blood were suddenly raised to the extreme, and the muscles and flesh on his back were bulging, and his strength was also raised to the extreme!
He paused, turned and kicked backwards.
The dragon swings its tail!
The minecart made a loud bang and stopped on the spot, sending dust and smoke everywhere.
Screams were heard at the gate of the mine, and the voices of people were loud and chaotic.
The smoke and dust gradually dissipated, and Su Yun opened his eyes and saw a tall figure standing in the smoke, it was the Gray Monster.
The Grey Raider is human-like, with arms and legs, but its body is much taller, and it has wings that span several feet, and the wings are like bats, which are fleshy membranes.
His feet were like eagle's talons, unusually sharp, but this was not the strangest thing, the strangest thing was that his sternum actually grew out!
What's even more bizarre is that the bones in his chest are distributed like a wheel!
As Su Yun could see, the bones on the chest of the Grey Raider were the densest, like the axle of a wheel, and the ribs were like the spokes of the wheel, connected to the shaft, and the spokes stretched out in all directions.
He had never seen such a bizarre construction before!
"In my qi and blood sense, the qi and blood contained in its bones are the strongest. Is it that its bones are hollow, and its blood flows from its bones?"
Su Yun was surprised: "There is no such monster in the countryside! The roe deer owl in Linyi Village is right, the steel forest in the city is indeed much more dangerous than the tree forest in the countryside, and there are more man-eating monsters here than in the countryside!"
The monster turned and looked at him, its eyes gray and his pupils in sight.
