Chapter 136: Departure Again
Wangshan City is located at the northwest edge of the grassland, bordering the grassland in the east and the mountains in the north, less than 50 kilometers away from the beginning of the Jiaoli Corridor, and is the only city within a radius of 200 kilometers from the entrance of the southern end of the corridor. Before the Great Catastrophe, Wangshan Castle was the main transportation route connecting the north and the south, and the rebuilt city after the Great Disaster is still the same, and caravans and mercenary groups passing through the Jiaoli Corridor often choose to rest here.
In ancient records, the history of Wangshan Castle can be traced back to 2,000 years ago, and in the older era, it was called Wangshan Terrace or Wangshan Rock.
"Climb the rock and look, there is a mountain in the northwest called the sleeping dragon, the shape is like the dragon sleeping and the wild, the mountain is majestic, the peaks are stacked, stretching thousands of miles across the west and east...... The scenery of this place is very good, so ask its name to remember it, the villagers say that there is no name, so the name of the name is called Wangshan. โ
In the geological book Mountains and Rivers Geography, the origin of Wangshan Rock is recorded, and it is estimated that even the author Miaoyuan Daoren himself did not expect that even after thousands of years, the rock he climbed on has long been lost in the flow of people, but the name he recorded on a whim has still been passed down for thousands of years, and will continue to be passed on.
The wheels rolled, the engines roared, and the caravan made its way northwest along the edge of the steppe, and finally reached the end of the steppe in the evening of the third day, stepping on the twilight sun. Looking from a high distance, you can see the end of the mountain range like a sleeping dragon, no matter which way you look, you can't see the end of the mountain.
You can see Mianlong Mountain, but you can't see Wangshan City, after all, it is only a medium-sized city, and there are more than 20 kilometers away, so it is naturally not so easy to see. However, although you can't see the city, you can already feel the atmosphere of the city.
Twenty kilometers away, it has entered the city's sphere of influence, and the city's mobile troops can arrive in half an hour, which is much safer here than the wilderness where the starting step is dangerous. Although humans have returned the wilderness to nature, the animals that rarely see humans anymore are still afraid of strange creatures that humans don't understand, and instinctively don't want to approach the places where humans are too concentrated, so when they get to the periphery of the city, they are rarely threatened by foreign beasts.
Not only the alien beasts, but even the threat of the demon spirits is much smaller, after all, it is too close to the city, and the defenders of the city are also worried about the infestation of the demon tide, so once the number of nearby demon spirits is too large, the city guards will take the initiative to attack and scatter the demon spirits into the most primitive source energy in batches, so as not to cause hidden dangers if they are too close to the city.
However, the group of demon spirits that are too small, the city guards will not care, there are not ten thousand but eight thousand demon spirits floating around the edge of the city every day, plus the heavenly and underground ones, if each one is managed, no matter how many city guards are not enough, so these stragglers will go with them, anyway, they will not pose any trouble to most people. It's not that no one dies at the hands of these scattered demon spirits, there will always be some ordinary people who are lucky to relax their vigilance because they are close to the city, and then die at the hands of the demon spirits, such dead people can be encountered in any city, for these unlucky ghosts, the city guards can only say that they deserve it, they are careless and don't care about their own lives, of course others don't care, and it's just a few lives, which is too common in this era.
Of course, these dead people were only a special case, and to the vast majority of caravans, the scattered spirits around the city were indeed no threat, like the two that floated over now.
"Bang", a fiery figure brutally crashed into the body of a demon spirit, the impact of the source energy blew the demon spirit into nothingness, the collision actually did not make a sound, it was just a dubbing that was automatically generated in the brain after people felt the vibration generated by the collision of the source energy.
"Boring, really xx boring, the old lady is going to be bored to death. "The female leopard, who had been wandering outside all night, finally returned this morning. As soon as they converged, the big cat, who had not slept all night, drove the poor ordinary mercenaries to the other cars to be the company of the goods, and took the entire truck by himself, and lay down on it and fell asleep.
In the wilderness, it is difficult for a person to live for a long time without some special methods, and resting at night is the biggest problem. It is difficult for a person to build a camp that is too tight, and there is no ** vigil, even if the strength is reached, there is no need to be afraid of scattered floating demons, and the threat of strange beasts is also an unavoidable trouble, after all, no one wants to wake up and find that there are groups of strange beasts dining around them, and the food is still themselves.
Of course, there are few people and there are few people, and both Rose and Leopard Female have the experience of living alone in the wilderness for long periods of time, so they naturally have their own ways of coping. But these methods are too troublesome to implement, one of the simplest is to build a nest or build a shelter space, other methods are more cumbersome, if you want to live for ten days and half a month, you might as well trouble once, but it is just one night, not enough to toss your own, so the female leopard simply did not sleep all night, running around on the grassland at night, during which chickens, dogs, and beasts jumped a hundred beasts, how many beasts and beasts were tossed by this boring big cat and fled, I have to say that the xenomorph camp was exceptionally calm all night, and she also had a creditใ
Back in the team, although the vehicle was bumpy, the female leopard slept soundly, and didn't care that she was still in the wilderness, because she knew that she was not the only one in the car, as soon as she fell asleep, there was a person sitting in the front and back of the car, with these two people, even in the most terrifying willow leaf continent that was already uninhabited, she believed that she could sleep with peace of mind, not to mention that it was just a grassland. Therefore, the big cat licked its paws, held its tail in its arms, and fell asleep with peace of mind.
"Lick your xx, the old lady knocked your xx out of the tail believe it or not. A flame passed in front of him, interrupting the crow's subdued voice, and the smiling crow screamed, and did not care to continue to pretend to describe the psychological activities of the female leopard, and fled back to the sidecar in a gloomy manner.
The female leopard raised her middle finger at the bastard crow from a distance, pinched the fingers of her left hand into a ring, and slapped it a few times before slapping another innocent passing demon spirit away.
After a day's sleep, the energetic big cat regained its vitality and began to look around for nothing, but today I don't know if it was too good luck or too bad luck for a day, except for a few groups of strange beasts that did not open their eyes, there was no trouble, and it was as calm as last night.
This is a good thing to be thankful for, but in the eyes of the uncomfortable big cat, it is like a bolt from the blue, so that on the rest of the road, even if she encounters a few mice that peek out, she has to go up and step on two feet, not to mention the demon spirit passing by.
Fortunately, just when she was getting more and more impatient, a voice like heaven sounded in her ears.
"Seeing the city, seeing the city, everyone finally ...... Be careful. โ
