Chapter VII
It is not suitable for walking at night.
Nocturnal animals are mostly dangerous, so once nightfall, the team stops moving, settles down, and waits for the long night to pass.
It is also important to choose a place to spend the night, the place should be spacious, the view should be good, and it is easy to spot the danger, and then you have a choice whether you want to fight or escape.
This hotel is very good, in terms of decoration, it should not be a low star, and the lobby is very spacious, enough to accommodate more than 20 people.
The lighting was a little worse, with only a small cold light emitting a dim light that illuminated a small clearing in the middle.
In this case, if the light is too bright, it is easy to expose the location.
The night before yesterday, there was such an accident.
Because of its phototaxis, a huge moth flew out of nowhere and pounced on the lamp in the crowd.
frightened everyone, but fortunately, the moth was not very aggressive, and was directly killed by Mu Shan with one blow, and it was only at this time that people knew that this beautiful "inheritor" was so strong.
But the powder that fell from its body also caused some trouble, and several people accidentally inhaled a little and fell asleep for more than ten hours.
Fortunately, there is no toxicity, otherwise it would have directly caused attrition.
However, the light source is still essential, and if there is a monster attack in pure darkness, it is even more difficult to deal with.
It's dim, but the little light is still comforting.
Zhang Ran tidied up a few clothes under him, ready to sleep, and still needed him to go to night duty in the second half of the night.
Fang Wen went out to check the situation of the vehicle, and the other three surrounded the ordinary people in the middle, each occupying a corner, in a triangular shape.
"Why haven't you come back?"
The middle-aged man felt a little strange, it stands to reason that the inspection of the vehicle is fast, and it is only necessary to see if it is locked, but it has been a few minutes since he went out, and it should not be.
The car stopped not far away, walked to the door and whispered Fang Wen's name a few times, but did not get any response.
Middle-aged people are suspicious, will something happen?
"You two are here to watch, I'll go and see... Where did Mu Shan go? ”
He turned around and said, only to find that Mu Shan, who was still leaning in another corner just now, was nowhere to be seen, and his position was empty.
The sleepy girl in black tracksuit suddenly woke up: "Ah, I didn't see it, wasn't she still here just now?" ”
Spitting water to extinguish the fire today consumed too much of her energy, causing her to be a little tired now, and she took a nap unconsciously.
asked the people next to him, and they also said that they didn't care and didn't know when she disappeared.
"Could it be to go to the bathroom?"
The girl in the black tracksuit said.
"I don't know." The middle-aged man shook his head and said, "That's it, let's go see Fang Wen first, and come with two men." ”
Zhang Ran didn't fall asleep, and when he heard a voice, he went over to check the situation.
happened to be seen by a middle-aged man, so he asked him to go out to find someone together.
The weather was not very good today, there was no moon, but there was still a dim light shining on the plaque on the side of the road, and it was cold.
Open the door, it is now October, it is already a little chilly at night, a cold wind is blowing, Zhang Ran is only wearing a single coat, and he can't help but shiver.
The three of them went out together, and another young man, with dyed yellow hair and a few studs on his earlobes, saw Zhang Ran's performance at this time, and spat disdainfully.
Zhang Ran was speechless, he provoked whom, and he was afraid that Leng would be despised now.
The whole county town was a little quiet, only the wind whined the plaques of the shops on the streets.
This county seat is very close to Lin'an, and people should have been evacuated long ago.
In other words, in the entire county town, except for these dozens of people, there are no other living people at this time.
Walked a few steps out of the house.
I didn't turn on the flashlight to prevent it from attracting monsters, and slowly groped forward in the dim light.
"Click"
There was a crunch.
"What sound?"
The middle-aged man was like a great enemy, and with a low shout, his skin instantly turned silvery-white.
The yellow-haired young man was even more unbearable, hiding behind the middle-aged man, trembling.
"I'm so sorry."
Zhang Ran smiled and raised his left foot, and the two looked at each other, and a flat can was impressively on the bottom of his feet.
Finding that it was not an enemy, the silver-white color on the middle-aged man's skin slowly faded and returned to its normal color.
It's his superpower, the Iron Skin, which is very common, and I don't know where it's inherited.
But it cannot be denied that this ability is very practical.
In the previous experiment, a fruit knife stabbed hard, and even a layer of skin did not penetrate, leaving only a white spot on it.
"I***, what are you doing? *******”
Huang Mao exploded instantly, opened his mouth and scolded angrily, and waved his hand to slap him.
Seeing that he was about to hit someone with a wave of his hand, the clay man also had three points of fire, Zhang Ran was angry from his heart, don't you still treat me as Hello Kitty?
Reached out and grabbed Huang Mao's arm, twisted his backhand, Huang Mao couldn't bear the pain and turned his back.
Zhang Fei raised his foot and kicked him hard on the buttocks, flew out two or three meters when he landed, and lay heavily on the ground.
A set of actions went smoothly, and even the middle-aged man next to him didn't react, and Huang Mao was already lying on the ground and wailing.
Seeing that Zhang Ran still didn't give up, and wanted to step forward and kick two more feet, the middle-aged man waved his hand to stop: "Forget it." , just spare him this time. ”
He was a little surprised, he usually saw that Zhang Ran was not visible and not leaking, but he didn't expect to have two hits.
Although Huang Mao is not a practitioner, the two are comparable in stature, so it was solved so easily.
Zhang Ran still has a good impression of middle-aged people, steady and meticulous, and a lot of work on the road is arranged by him, which is the backbone of the whole team.
Huang Mao struggled to get up and fell heavily on the ground, he felt that his whole body was falling apart, he didn't dare to provoke Zhang Ran anymore, and hid in fear from the middle-aged man.
Leaving this little episode aside, the three of them continued to walk forward.
The car was parked not far away, and it was only twenty or thirty meters away from the door.
A total of two buses, one Jeep, were parked safely in place.
Under the cover of night, it looked like a few huge monsters.
"What does it smell like?"
This is the leeward place, Zhang Ran sniffled, and a strange smell wafted over.
It smells of blood!
That's right, it's this smell, he reacted instantly, he just smelled it today, so he felt familiar, isn't this the smell of blood?
"Stop!"
Zhang Ran issued a warning.
The other two turned their heads to look at him, and the yellow-haired mouth muttered a few words, but did not dare to say anything more.
"It smells of blood." Zhang Ran whispered.
He had a serious expression and didn't look like a joke.
The three of them slowed down and followed the smell of blood, and before they had taken two steps, a dark figure was lying near the front wheel of the jeep.
When they turned on the flashlight, the three of them were shocked.
