Chapter 17: Crying in the middle of the night
"Boom!"
With a loud bang, a mutant creature more than four meters tall fell heavily to the ground, and after some weak convulsions, it finally remained motionless.
Xu Zinuo put away a Guan knife that was almost two meters high, and the blade of that knife still had the blood of this sixth-order giant ape flowing on it, and then disappeared into the air as if by magic.
Lin Xi noticed a strangely shaped ring on Xu Zinuo's right index finger, and it was just after the ring emitted a strange light that the Guan knife disappeared.
He had seen this kind of thing in books, and they were collectively called space storage devices, which were a huge sign of the pinnacle of human technology.
In the ruins of a prehistoric civilization, human beings found something called the Space Stone, and after a period of research, they found that this stone actually contains a mysterious energy, which can actually cut a part of the space and store it in.
Later, the stone was made into a variety of bracelets, rings, pendants, and other things that were not easy to carry around, such as weapons.
However, the price of this space storage device is very expensive, and only those members of the big forces can exchange it for contributions. It is possible to buy it with Federated Coins, but the price is terrifying.
Once at an auction in Suzhou and Hangzhou City, a space ring was auctioned for more than 50 million federal coins.
From this point alone, it is not difficult to see how terrifying Xu Zinuo's family background is, because space storage equipment is not something that can be bought with money, and I am afraid that a strong general will have to save money for a period of time before he can afford it.
But Xie Heng's attention was all focused on that Guan knife, he couldn't have imagined that a girl like Xu Zinuo would use such a domineering weapon, and her fighting style was extremely rough.
Open and close, break through 10,000 jun with one force, this is the best portrayal of Xu Zinuo's battle.
The Great Force Ape is a mutated creature at the peak of the sixth order, and its strength is not weaker than that of the mutated creatures of the seventh order, but they are a bit stupid, they only use brute force when fighting, and they have no combat skills at all.
But when Xu Zinuo fought with it, she also used her strength to fight hard, her strength was not weaker than this giant ape at all, and even every time she cut down, she could slash the giant ape backwards, it was simply a humanoid tyrannosaurus.
This is the first time Lin Xi and Xie Heng have seen Xu Zinuo fight, this kind of momentum is so strong that they can't even close their mouths, I'm afraid they won't be able to bear it with a casual knife.
"I'm a good girl, buddy, I don't dare to mess with this tiger girl anymore, brother, you do it yourself." Xie Heng said whimsily.
"Xie Heng, who are you talking about!"
Xu Zinuo suddenly took out the Guan knife, and stood on the ground with a "dang" sound, so frightened that Xie Heng hurriedly hid behind Lin Xi.
"Auntie, I was wrong, you are merciful and merciful to spare my life." Xie Heng hurriedly begged for mercy.
"Alright, hurry up and take off the most representative thing from that big guy, it's getting dark, we need to find a safe place to settle down." Lin Xi hurriedly became a peacemaker.
"Humph! For Lin Xi's sake, I'll spare your life! Xu Zinuo angrily chopped off the tail and fur of the giant ape with a few knives, and threw them into the space ring together.
It was dark in the valley very quickly, and as the last rays of sunset passed, Sunset Valley was completely plunged into darkness, except for some inexperienced students who could not find their way, most of them had already found a place to settle down.
"Let's spend the night here tonight!" Lin Xi put down his heavy backpack, he really envied Xu Zinuo for having such a treasure, he could travel all over the world empty-handed.
Xu Zinuo and Xie Heng looked around, this was the highest place in this area, and the strongest giant ape in the vicinity had been killed by them, so it should be safe.
"Ah Heng, as usual, I will guard it in the first half of the night, and you will guard it in the second half of the night."
"Okay." Xie Heng agreed, the two of them are distributed like this, even if it is a safe place, there should be someone to keep vigil, so as to ensure that nothing goes wrong.
"What about me?" Xu Zinuo thought that Lin Xi had forgotten her.
"With us two big men, you can sleep in peace." Lin Xi said.
"Hmph, don't look down on people, my strength is much stronger than the two of you combined!" Xu Zinuo said unconvinced.
"Gotta get it, I mean tomorrow we're going to have to rely on you for the hunt, so you have to get some rest."
"Hee-hee, that's pretty much it!" Xu Zinuo smiled, then found a place to sit down, adjusted a comfortable posture and closed his eyes peacefully.
Lin Xi and Xie Heng lit a fire, and then sprinkled the feces of some sixth-order creatures they had collected during the day around this area, so that some weak alien beasts would not dare to approach.
"Hey, Lin Xi, that tiger girl can't take a fancy to you, right?" Xie Heng glanced at Xu Zinuo, making sure she couldn't hear it before whispering.
Lin Xi rolled his eyes: "Do you think it's possible?" People know at a glance that they were born into a powerful martial arts family, how can they look at me as a waste who is almost in the third year of high school and has not broken through to the fourth order. ”
"But I think she treats you very well, have you ever seen Xu Zinuo and other boys take the initiative to say half a word?" Xie Heng asked rhetorically.
"This ......" Lin Xi was stunned for a moment, thinking about it carefully, there really isn't.
There is no shortage of students with strong family backgrounds in the Seventh High School, Xu Zinuo's suitors can almost line up from the school gate to two streets away, but she has never seen her get close to anyone, and in the eyes of others, she is almost an iceberg goddess.
"Well, I'm right, aren't I?" Xie Heng looked at Lin Xi's expression and smiled.
To say that Lin Xi didn't have any feelings for Xu Zinuo would definitely be a lie, unless he was a monk who was empty. But he is very aware of the gap between the two, so he has always been with her as a friend and with an attitude.
It's just that he himself is also very strange, why is Xu Zinuo such an excellent person so enthusiastic about himself alone? Even often shows the unique side of girls in front of themselves.,It's really a bit thought-provoking.。
"Isn't that buddy, handsome and dashing, Yushu Linfeng?" Lin Xi jokingly said, "Tell you secretly, the person who came to our house to introduce me to someone almost broke the door of our house." ”
"Come on, you, say you're fat, you're really holding on, slowly self-absorbed, buddy go to sleep first, and come back to call me in the middle of the night!" Xie Heng smiled and walked away, leaving Lin Xi, who was sitting by the fire and keeping vigil alone.
"The cosmic source energy here is quite rich, don't waste it!" Lin Xi crossed his legs and began to run the Star Attraction Technique.
As the energy entered his body, constantly washing away the impurities on his body, Lin Xi not only did not become more tired, but became more and more energetic, in fact, the technique of attracting stars could already replace the sleep of human beings.
There is no shortage of cultivators who do not sleep for days and nights at a time, not because they have an excellent physique and do not need sleep, but because their spirits have always been in that kind of environment that transcends sleep.
"Giggle......
In the night, a strange laughter suddenly woke Lin Xi from his meditation, he glanced around, but found nothing.
When cultivating, although the mental state is close to sleep, the human senses will be magnified many times, and the surrounding wind and grass can almost be detected at the first time, but Lin Xi actually didn't find anything.
"Did I hear it wrong?" Lin Xi was suspicious, but he always felt that something was wrong, as if the temperature around him had dropped a little.
"Woo woo woo ......" When he almost really thought it was his delusion, the strange laughter turned into a low cry again.
However, Lin Xi still didn't notice anything unusual nearby.
"Hey, why did you get so cold all of a sudden?"
At this time, Xie Heng and Xu Zinuo both woke up from their sleep, and the temperature around them unconsciously dropped by nearly ten degrees, which was really unusual.
"Lin Xi, what's going on?"
"I don't know, there have been some strange and strange sounds since just now, listen carefully!"
All three of them fell silent.
"Woo woo woo ......"
The crying sounded again.
The three of them glanced at each other, and there was a hint of solemnity in their eyes, there was something wrong with this place!
