Chapter 3: Unspeakable Fear

As soon as it was too late, things in the grass sprang out and catapulted into the air, heading for the carriage.

They resembled snakes and giant worms, white in color, with strong stretching muscles and mouthparts full of thin teeth.

Through the fluttering car curtain, Lu Shaoyun accidentally caught a glimpse of these guys, and his heart was shocked again. So, what has happened to the world?

He wanted to seek help from someone on the other side of the plane, but found that at some point, the other end had long lost contact, and for a while, the inner self fell into a situation of isolation and helplessness.

Xuanchen pressed the dark compartment next to the seat, and the windows on both sides instantly closed a layer of copper windows, sealing the body tightly.

On the roof of the car, Shangguan Xiao rotated the knife in his hand, turning the back of the knife down and the blade up. The long knife was used in her hand with ease, and in a few strokes, those terrifying long worms were broken before they could spray venom, and they fell down one after another, unable to move.

Shangguan Xiao inspected the surroundings, and after there was no abnormality, he whispered the sentence "Juhe" in his mouth, and the long knife quickly reorganized mechanically, gradually closed and became smaller, and after becoming a hanging ornament in his palm, he wore it on his chest again, and then bent down and jumped off the roof of the car, and sat down in the car again, his face was calm and speechless.

"It's over?" Lu Shaoyun asked in a low voice, and couldn't help but glance at the pendant on Shangguan Xiao's chest.

The other party didn't answer, and Zhong Ming took over the conversation: "Hmm." ”

Lu Shaoyun had no choice but to turn to Zhong Ming and Xuan Chen, pointed to the back, and asked tentatively: "Is it my house that is on fire?" ”

Considering that he was seriously injured and in a coma and may have lost part of his memory, Xuan Chen and Zhong Ming had to patiently explain his problem.

Xuan Chen nodded, and Zhong Ming next to him had sympathy written on his face.

Lu Shaoyun didn't show how sad he was, he just needed to sort out his thoughts and re-examine the world.

"What was that outside just now?" Lu Shaoyun asked.

"Ground Cockroach." Then Zhong Ming added, "They specialize in sucking human flesh and blood, and their venom can peel off people's flesh and skin, and the bones are black, which is very scary. ”

Zhong Ming wanted to scare him, but he didn't expect the other party to look calm.

Although Lu Shaoyun was calm on the surface, he was actually panicked in his heart, but what brought him more was thinking, was there such a creature in ancient times? It's a lot like lampreys, but they swim in the water, but the guys on the outside are crawling on the ground, plus catapulting, and they're poisonous, and these features add up to a monster like a patchwork of creatures.

I almost forgot, this is a parallel universe, hundreds of millions of years of evolution, maybe at a certain point in time, the evolution direction of living things deviates slightly from the track, and then it ......

However, if the human species can be born, this world line should not deviate too far, right?

After Lu Shaoyun finished brainstorming, he breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Where are we going now?" ”

"The Great Wall of the Border." Xuanchen replied.

"The Great Wall of the Border?" Lu Shaoyun thought for a while and said, "Then aren't we abroad now?" Well, I mean, are we in the territory of another country now? Or ......"

"This is the territory of the Zhenyuan Country, don't dare to talk nonsense." Zhong Ming was so anxious that he wanted to cover Lu Shaoyun's mouth, but after thinking about it, he explained, "There is a forest behind us, which is called the Yuanxu Realm, which is polluted by evil spirits, and flowers, insects, birds and beasts have undergone abnormal changes, and the emperor ordered the construction of the Great Wall in order to prevent the evil cult from continuing to expand, starting from Yunzhou in the south and reaching Guanzhou in the north, stretching for thousands of miles, except for some scattered villages and towns, most people live within the Great Wall. ”

Evil? The technology here is not low, although the technology tree is a little crooked, but how can you still engage in feudal superstition, Lu Shaoyun thought about it and denied himself, Zhenyuan Kingdom, the emperor, the system and thinking can't keep up with science and technology, it's understandable.

As for this evil, could it be some kind of radiation pollution source?

"Why not include them?" Lu Shaoyun asked hurriedly.

"Some of the places where they live are too close to the ruins, which is the case in Baolin Village, where you are located, and there is also the problem of terrain planning, most of the people outside the Great Wall have moved to live in the Great Wall, and only a small number of them have not left, probably because they have lived for a long time and are used to it." Zhong Ming explained, "By the way, the fire was caused by the night attack of those strange beasts, and the villagers panicked, and the torches accidentally ignited the hay......"

Lu Shaoyun was silent for a while and asked, "Didn't they all escape?" ”

"The situation is critical, and only you have been saved."

Lu Shaoyun looked at his own outfits, and then looked at the outfits of the other three, the difference between the city and the countryside, he rearranged his thoughts, and asked again: "You shouldn't be locals, right, you came all the way to take me into Beijing to take the national exam?" Is Zhenyuan Country so well treated? ”

Zhong Ming was about to say something, but Xuan Chen spoke: "Yes, the top of the state exam, you can directly enter the Junyang Academy Palace to practice, the future pillars of the country, deserve this treatment." ”

"Well, not really." Lu Shaoyun waved his hand, "What if I don't pass the national test?" ”

"If you take the official career, after completing your studies from the Junyang School Palace, you can also go to the local area to become a state pastor or county guard." Xuanchen replied.

"Listen to you, there is another way?"

"Of course, Junyang Academy cultivates leaders from all walks of life, you can learn the art of the mechanism from the Yanshi, or you can learn the way of the beast from the hunter, whether it is from literature or martial arts, it all depends on your own qualifications."

"Then Master Xuanchen, what do you do?" Lu Shaoyun's mouth was scooped, and he felt that it was inappropriate, so he changed his tone and said, "Master Xuanchen, what errand are you doing?" ”

"You sometimes speak strange words, but I know what you mean, but we don't use it often."

"That's good." Lu Shaoyun was relieved, and then remembered something, and asked, "You haven't answered me yet?" ”

"Don't ask what you shouldn't." A cold voice rang in my ears.

Lu Shaoyun turned his head and glanced at Shangguan Xiao, quickly retracted his gaze and remained silent.

Lu Shaoyun lowered his head and thought, judging from the information he had so far, they were definitely not as simple as escorting his bodyguards, and he always felt that they must still be hiding something from him, but now he had to follow them, step by step, at least, he was still safe, and they would not be unfavorable to themselves, of course, except for this fierce mother-in-law.

Just as I was thinking about it, suddenly there was a violent vibration on the roof of the car.

There's something on the roof!

Lu Shaoyun almost shouted.

Immediately afterwards, the right side of the carriage was hit by a strong force, and the carriage rolled on its side in the grass next to it, and suddenly the man turned on his back.

Lu Shaoyun's head was hit and bleeding, but he still endured the pain and climbed out of the car with difficulty, and when he straightened up and looked up, the thing in the grass opposite hit his heart again, and an indescribable fear arose.

It resembles a panther as a whole, its body surface is pitch black and smooth, its body is much larger than that of a panther, and it has wings on its back, its wings are black, there are no feathers, it is more like bat wings, but it is much larger, it has a circle of tentacles around its neck, fluttering in the air, like seaweed swinging in water, and its face is full of large and small eyes, some are closed, some are open, and they reveal a strange light under the moonlight.

Its mouth slowly opened, its fangs exposed, and its mouth was covered with spiral teeth, a circle of thin teeth that extended deep into its throat, emitting a terrible scream.
