Following Pixiu's instructions, we first left the reef-covered beach and climbed over a rock wall into an open plain.

As far as the eye could see, there was not even a tall tree on the desolate plain, except for low shrubs and grasses that reached below the legs.

There is a large mountain in the distance, and it is there that the little Pixiu senses come from.

Without further ado, we were very worried about Xu Huan's safety, and quickly moved towards the distant mountain.

But within a few steps, I seemed to have stepped on something under my feet, making a crunching sound.

I looked down and was startled.

It turned out that what I stepped on was a piece of human calf bone!

"This place is inhabited by humans?"

I asked subconsciously.

Ning Wushuang stepped forward, picked up the broken bone that I stepped on, identified it, and then shook his head gently:

"This calf bone has been stored for at least a hundred years, and it has been weathered, and it should have been left by the survivors who escaped to the island in a shipwreck."

"What kind of survivor is this!"

I said with some sighs:

"Didn't you die here in the end? If you want me to say, the people who are lucky enough to escape to this island are lucky to get home. ”

"Because, in the end, it will become food in the mouth of the merman, no different from being buried in the sea. That's how this one ends! ”

I complained a few words, and I couldn't help but feel a wave of curiosity in my heart.

Zhang Tiande and they escorted Xu Huan to a terrifying island full of sharks, did they hit by mistake or did they have another purpose?

With this doubt in mind, we continued in the direction of the mountain.

Along the way, we found more human remains.

After Ning Wushuang's identification, these human remains existed in different years and years, ranging from decades to hundreds of years.

Gradually, I felt a chill spread from the soles of my feet to my whole body.

With so many human remains appearing one after another, it was as if the entire plain was a huge graveyard.

Any intruder that intrudes into this place will be buried on this desolate and eerie plain.

Perhaps to confirm my suspicions, I heard the sudden cry of a baby in the nearby grass!

"Shhhh

Ning Wushuang and I pricked up our ears, and sure enough, we heard the sound of a baby's cry.

"Strange thing! How can there be a baby's cry in a wilderness where birds don't poop? ”

I said with a frown.

But knowing that there was something strange, the two of us still followed the sound cautiously to find out.

As the baby's cry got closer and closer, I cautiously clenched the purple electric sword in my hand to prevent any emergency.

When I opened a dense field of weeds, suddenly a black shadow burst out of it, aiming directly at my head.

But I had been prepared, and one of them stooped down to avoid the shadow attack.

Not only that, but I also took advantage of the situation and swung my sword at the black shadow that passed over my head.

A baby-like scream came from the mouth of the black shadow, and then it fell to the ground, motionless, as if dead.

Ning Wushuang and I hurriedly stepped forward to check, only to see that this guy who suddenly attacked me looked very strange.

Its body resembles that of a sheep, and it is bare and blue-gray.

The head has a human face, but the eyes are located under the armpits.

Not only that, but its mouth has interlaced canine teeth, and it is not a good kind at first glance.

And the limbs are thick and wide, with sharp claws.

I had never heard of such a strange form, and it was the first time that Ning Wushuang had encountered it.

At this time, the little Pixiu came out of my body, faced the monster in front of me, and shouted at us:

"I know this guy, I know this guy! Obediently, this is a strange beast left over from ancient times, named Roe Deer Owl! ”

"This guy is a gregarious predatory monster. Cunning character, brutal by nature, and likes cannibalism. ”

I was stunned again, and said with some distraction:

"Ancient Xenomorph...... How could it be in such a place? Hey! Wait a minute! You just said...... Hunting in groups? Worst! ”

As soon as I finished speaking, I heard the cries of babies that made my scalp tingle one after another.

It felt as if we were surrounded by countless infant spirits!

it!

It's no wonder we've found so many human remains along the way.

It turns out that this plain is the nest of roe deer owls!

Without further ado, in the face of an unknown number of roe deer owls in the grass around us, we immediately turned around and ran towards our destination mountain, which was far away.

The grass behind us was noisy, and it seemed that a large number of roe deer owls were gathering to chase us.

Suddenly, an unbearable roe deer owl finally began to attack us.

I saw it leap up from the grass and pounce on me.

Seeing this, Ning Wushuang suddenly screamed, waved the soul chain head-on, and knocked it away with a whip.

The roe deer owl let out a baby cry and fell back into the grass, but then three or four more roe deer owls jumped up and swooped wildly at me and Ning Wushuang with their claws.

Seeing this, I hurriedly cast a vajra amulet, and finally barely resisted the attack of these roe deer owls.

However, blindly hiding in a protective cover is not a long-term solution.

In the face of more and more roe deer owls gathering towards us, we were surrounded by groups at some point.

"Oh no, I didn't expect so many roe owls to populate this plain. Snack goods, don't you say that this guy is a xenomorph left over from ancient times, why are there so many of them? ”

I asked the little Pixiu beside me with a frown.

"Please, boss!" Xiao Pixiu rolled his eyes exaggeratedly and asked rhetorically, "Who told you that the number of xenos left over from ancient times must be scarce?" Isn't it permissible for people to reproduce in large numbers? ”

"Moreover, according to your meaning, the ancestor of the rat is also a xenomorph left over from ancient times, and the number of them that reproduce now is several times more than the number of you humans!"

Listening to the little Pixiu's chatter, I was speechless for a while.

It's all this time, and this little guy still has the leisure to give me popular science knowledge.

I'm really drunk too.

"So what now? My shield is time-limited. As soon as the time is up, it will disappear automatically. We won't be able to beat so many roe deer owls. ”

I said with some concern.

Xiao Pixiu was silent for a moment, and suddenly the black light around her body was so bright that Ning Wushuang's eyes and I couldn't open.

When the black light dissipated, I saw that the little Pixiu had recovered his true body and stood majestically in front of us.

"Boss, in a while, I will use my own ancient beast aura to deter them and buy time for the two of you to escape."

"Once you get out of trouble, you keep running towards the mountain in the distance. Because I didn't just feel the breath of a little girl from there. ”

"Where is there an unusually powerful aura of deterrence, presumably those roe deer owls dare not approach that mountain."

Little Pixiu became very serious at this moment, and the majestic voice echoed in my ears, and there was a feeling of excitement in my heart.
