Chapter 8: The Mysterious Old Man
At this moment, in Lop Nur and Kumu Kuduk in Xinjiang, hundreds of officers and soldiers are full of sadness.
The people of Bureau 749 and Unit 01 have been in the B restricted area for six hours, but they still haven't seen a single person come out, and even the communicator has lost its signal, which gives them a very bad feeling.
"Wait another two hours, and if they haven't shown up yet, wipe this place out. ”
The top officer of the 749th Bureau had also come here, his heart was very heavy, and his brows were furrowed into the word "Chuan".
......
The air in the mountains is good, and the breeze blows gently, so that you don't feel a trace of the midsummer heat.
When Jiang Yifan opened his eyes, it was already noon. Looking back, the bodies of the five teammates had also become stiff, and there were even some signs that they were about to stink in the middle of the summer.
Jiang Yifan felt that he had a splitting headache at the moment, severe pain all over his body, and a feeling like a muscle tear, and it was a little difficult to even stand up.
"Where is this?" he looked around, looking around.
As far as the eye can see, the mountains and rivers here are beautiful, the birds are singing and the flowers are fragrant, and it does not look like it is in the desert at all.
"Oasis?" Jiang Yifan quickly rejected this idea, because this place is too vast, and everywhere you look, there is a piece of turquoise, rolling and undulating, with no end in sight, it doesn't look like an oasis at all, but like the depths of a mountain somewhere.
At Jiang Yifan's feet, a huge stone platform with a diameter of about ten meters is standing here quietly, the appearance is exactly the same as the stone platform in the B forbidden area, and there are also some incomprehensible Taoist patterns and ancient Taoist characters engraved on it.
On the stone platform, overgrown with weeds, which has covered nearly half of the stone platform, there is a desolate atmosphere.
"It's all dead, I'm the only one alive......" Jiang Yifan was still a little stunned.
The corpses of his teammates who had begun to stink told him that everything he had encountered before was real, and that the stone platform really had the effect of a teleportation array, which was amazing.
At this time, the bronze sword was still lying quietly on the stone platform, but the jade pendant on it seemed to be a little dull and lost some of its original color.
With a snort, Jiang Yifan picked up the bronze sword and directly cut a rock the size of a human head under the stone platform into two sections, as easy as chopping melons and vegetables.
"Sure enough. Jiang Yifan had to believe that the ancient stone platform might really have a god-like existence. Not to mention the mysterious ancient array, just this sharp bronze sword is difficult to achieve at the level of modern science and technology.
With a crisp sound, Jiang Yifan slashed the bronze sword towards the stone platform under his feet, but his wrist was numb due to the force of the shock, and the bronze sword also fell out of his hand and fell a few meters away.
"Damn!" Jiang Yifan was completely dumbfounded, he originally wanted to use this bronze sword to test the fineness of this stone platform, but he didn't expect that there was not even a trace left.
"Ancient myths really existed!" Jiang Yifan said firmly.
He had no way not to believe it, a bronze sword that had been sealed in the ground for an unknown number of years, all rusty but still extremely sharp, and the stone platform where the bronze sword could not leave a trace was extremely mysterious, with the effect of a teleportation array, just like the fiction in the online novel.
At this time, there was a sudden sound of "rustling" in the dense forest, which made Jiang Yifan's body stiffen suddenly.
Through the dense branches and leaves, he clearly saw that there was a red-haired monster in the woods, peeking at him coldly, and from the movement just now, it should have just arrived.
"I'll rub!"
When Jiang Yifan saw the red-haired monster clearly, he couldn't help but curse loudly.
I saw that the red-haired monster was two meters tall, and it was lying on its back, like a huge ape. There was a foul smell on its body, which made people want to vomit, and what made people feel even more chilling was that it was looking at Jiang Yifan with a greedy look in its eyes.
"Where am I? What is this?" Jiang Yifan was completely stunned, but, in the face of danger, he couldn't think about it so much, so he could only pick up the bronze sword on the ground, and carefully guard against this red-haired monster.
"Roaring ......"
The red-haired monster roared in a low voice, leaking out two long canine teeth, and at the same time, it kept walking around Jiang Yifan, as if looking for weakness.
The first strike is strong, and the second strike suffers.
Jiang Yifan is not the kind of person who waits for death, his physique is almost perverted, although he was exposed to nuclear radiation in Lop Nur and his party, but his strength is still there, at this time, he has a sharp bronze sword in his hand, he is not afraid at all, but is forcing the red-haired monster to look, ready to start.
"your mother!" Jiang Yifan took two steps forward, took the initiative to attack, and slashed directly at the red-haired monster with a bronze sword.
"Roar"
The red-haired monster's movements were very fast, and he seemed to be very jealous of the bronze sword in Jiang Yifan's hand, as if he knew the power of this sword, and at this moment, seeing Jiang Yifan rushing over, he actually stepped back directly and made a big cut, and he didn't intend to hit it hard.
At this moment, there was a sound of "rustling" in the dense forest again, and not long after, another red-haired monster appeared!
The body of this red-haired monster is even thicker, a lot stronger than the one just now, and it looks like it makes people feel worried.
Cold sweat suddenly soaked Jiang Yifan's back, and after the long journey in the B forbidden area, he had lost a lot of strength, and later he didn't replenish his energy in time, and his whole body was a little weak.
It's okay to face monsters all the time, but now there are two of them, which makes Jiang Yifan feel very tricky.
You know, the monster's movements are very fast, and if you are not careful, you may die here.
Next, something that surprised Jiang Yifan again happened.
I saw that the two red-haired monsters did not intend to fight Jiang Yifan in close combat, but picked up the stones on the ground and threw them directly at Jiang Yifan.
"I@#%¥......" Jiang Yifan was dumbfounded, originally, he also planned to try the sharpness of the bronze sword, but the other party was surprisingly smart and threw stones directly.
The strength of those two red-haired monsters was incomparably great, and at the same time, they were also very fast. I saw that in the sky, stones the size of bricks were constantly being thrown over.
"I'll wipe it!" and although he moved quickly, there were still many rocks on him.
"It hurts Lao Tzu to death. Jiang Yifan grinned.
Seeing Jiang Yifan being hit, the two huge red-haired monsters suddenly grinned, looking at Jiang Yifan as if they were laughing at him.
"His mother's, I am a human being to be played by two beasts?" Jiang Yifan was furious, he had excellent physical fitness, and he had a bronze sword in his hand, so he was not afraid at all, and rushed forward directly with the sword.
"Chirp ......"
These two red-haired monsters are not easy to mess with, their movements are very agile, and they are a few meters away when they jump, and Jiang Yifan can't catch up with them at all.
The most infuriating thing is that whenever Jiang Yifan stops to rest, they will pick up the stone again and throw it at Jiang Yifan, so that the latter has no room to rest at all.
After a while, Jiang Yifan was out of breath and sweating.
Since entering Lop Nur, he has not replenished any energy in time, and even the water source was cut off in the middle of the night.
"Twitter ......"
The two red-haired monsters that looked like apes were extremely smart, and when they saw that Jiang Yifan's physical strength was almost consumed, they slowly stepped forward, paced slowly around Jiang Yifan, and began to look for an opportunity to attack.
"Roar"
The red monster, which was more than two meters in size, roared and pounced first.
Its speed was very fast, Jiang Yifan only felt a gust of fishy wind blowing in his face, and the monster was in front of him.
"your mother!" Jiang Yifan held the bronze sword and slashed forward with force.
I only heard a "poof", and the bronze sword was like cutting a piece of paper, and directly cut off some of the flesh and skin of the red monster's claws, although it didn't hurt the vital point, but the pain was enough to make the monster howl for a long time.
"Squeak ......"
The two monster team bronze swords were afraid, and they were no longer aggressive, but looked hesitant.
"Booming ......"
At this time, a sound came out of the dense forest again, which made Jiang Yifan a little panicked.
"His mother's, if another monster comes out, I'll be completely dead today!" Jiang Yifan was a little devastated, he didn't know where this teleportation array had teleported himself, and he would find such a dangerous monster.
As the sound got closer and closer, Jiang Yifan and the monster both looked away.
I saw an old man with gray hair walking out of the dense forest with a woodcutter in his hand.
It was an ordinary old man who couldn't be more ordinary, obviously not young, his eyes were a little cloudy, and his back that should have been straight was also a little rickety.
Seeing someone coming, Jiang Yifan immediately breathed a sigh of relief. The clothes worn by the old man were obviously modern clothes, and it seemed that the teleportation array did not transport him to a completely unfamiliar continent as in the novel.
"Don't come here, old man, these two ......"
Jiang Yifan stopped before he finished speaking, because the old man's movements made his mouth grow involuntarily and stay in place.
"Puff ......"
I only heard the sound of two firewood knives cutting through the flesh and blood, and the two red-haired monsters that were still roaring in place suddenly lost their voices - their heads were completely cut off in these two knives!
The old man's figure was too fast, and his knife was also extremely fast, as if it was two lightning bolts, which was simply unclear.
The old man raised the knife in his hand, very simply, after killing the two red-haired monsters, he seemed to be nothing, he didn't even take a breath of air, and it looked effortless.
Jiang Yifan was completely stunned, he had only seen such skills in martial arts novels, it was impossible for such a powerful character to exist in reality, even those teammates of Unit 01 were not good, they were too far behind!
"Who are you, and how did you come here?" the old man asked in a deep voice, holding a firewood knife in one hand.
"Tick Tick ......"
Jiang Yifan felt that the old man's hostility was very strong, and he even had a feeling of wanting to kill people
