Standing on a high sandy slope, there is a steep slope in front of you, about twenty or thirty meters.

The vision ahead is empty, a majestic city-state stands between heaven and earth, the earth-colored city wall is tall and heavy, and there is a lookout on the city wall, and you can vaguely see the figure of the guards on the city wall.

At the tall city gate, there were still people coming in and out, but Gu Yuan found that the guards of this city-state were all standing on the city tower, but the city gate was very free.

Fang Lan and Zhao Yong also climbed up, and when they saw the magnificent city-state, their faces also showed unbelievable looks.

I heard Uncle Mu talk about the city-state before, in their imagination, the city-state is probably a town, but they didn't expect it to be like this.

When Uncle Mu also came up, Gu Yuan also raised the doubts in his heart.

When Uncle Mu heard this question, he was a little curious.

"Shouldn't that be the case? At the gate of the city, do you still need people to guard it strictly? ”

"So, people from outside can go in as they please?"

"Of course! They are all people from the land of sand, and they all live in the city-state, so how can they not let people in? Uncle Mu continued.

Listening to the tone of Uncle Mu's words, it seemed that everything was supposed to be like this, but it was Gu Yuan, who should not have asked such a question at all.

"So, we can come and go as we please?" Zhao Yong immediately asked.

Uncle Mu smiled and nodded: "Of course, although I don't know why you didn't live in the city-state before, as long as you want to enter the city-state, His Majesty the King will definitely welcome you!" ”

Gu Yuan nodded lightly.

Fang Lan smiled again and said, "But if the city gate is not defended, what if someone inside commits a crime and runs out?" ”

Uncle Mu laughed, and his eyes seemed to say that this person was so naïve.

"The people in the city-state will come out to hunt, but they will still go back, and ...... When the night comes, only the city-state is the safest, and outside the city-state, it is very dangerous, and no one can spend the night outside the city-state safely. Uncle Mu explained, "So, even criminals, don't dare to escape from the city-state, unless they don't want to live." ”

Gu Yuan nodded lightly and asked, "What is the danger you are talking about?" ”

"Of course, there are sand monsters, and sand worms, and at night, those sand worms will crawl out, and even sand monsters that are even more terrifying than sand pythons will appear! And...... There is a sand monster that hides in the dark, and when it passes you, your body turns to bones. Uncle Mu's eyes revealed fear, "So, even if it is a hunting team, it must go back before dark, otherwise, ...... Tomorrow's sun will never be seen again! ”

Although it is not yet evening.

But when Uncle Mu said this, the fear in his eyes really couldn't be hidden.

Even when he spoke, his voice trembled slightly.

You know, Uncle Mu is the captain of their hunting team, he has rich experience, someone was entangled by sandworms before, he can make a decision immediately, this is definitely not a person with weak psychological quality, but he can be afraid of this.

Beyond the city-state at night, the horror is evident.

When going uphill, the people who dragged the meat looked very difficult, but when they went downhill, they were all faster.

Gu Yuan was not in a hurry, he walked slowly, he had already arrived at the place anyway.

Master Mu was also worried about whether his previous words would cause a psychological shadow to Gu Yuan and them, and said to them with a smile: "Although it is very terrifying outside the city-state at night, as long as you enter the city-state, you don't have to be afraid, it is absolutely safe inside the city-state." ”

Breel, who came up, heard this, and hurriedly accosted: "Yes! Uncle Mu is right! As long as we enter the city-state, we will not have to fear anything, His Majesty the Great King will always protect and protect us! ”

"Praise be to the Great King!"

Uncle Mu had mentioned His Majesty the King before, and now Brell has also said it.

And, when Brell spoke of His Majesty, someone next to him immediately chimed in.

When Gu Yuan turned his face to look at them, he saw a fanatical color on the faces of these people.

"We were able to meet Mr. and harvest so much sand python meat, all of this is a blessing from His Majesty the King to us!" Someone sighed.

“……”

Gu Yuan's face turned dark.

I was grateful to him just now, how did I get to the city-state, everything is the credit of their king's majesty?

Have you considered your feelings again?

At the same time, Gu Yuan also found that when these people talked about their His Majesty the King, the fanaticism on their faces was simply a little abnormal.

Just as he was about to enter the city gate, Gu Yuan suddenly sensed something.

He stopped, raised his head, and stared ahead, feeling a very bad feeling in his heart.

The first task at the moment is to find Yunsheng and the others.

And before finding Yunsheng and them, Gu Yuan had to avoid being "changed" like these people.

At this moment, Gu Yuan felt a sense of depression in his heart, indescribably awkward, as if the city gate in front of him was a monster with a bloody mouth, and he took the initiative to walk into the mouth of the monster at this moment.

"Are you alright, sir?" Fang Lan whispered behind her.

Gu Yuan glanced at her and shook his head.

For Uncle Mu, it is very dangerous outside the city-state, especially at night, and as long as they return to the city-state, they will have a sense of stability, because in their cognition, the city-state has the protection of His Majesty the King, which is absolutely safe.

But this is not the case for Gu Yuan and them.

Gu Yuan always felt that the reason why he, Fang Lan, Zhao Yong and the others were still sober at the moment was because they had been staying outside the city-state, and once they entered the city-state, they had the possibility of being assimilated.

For them.

Inside the city-state, even more terrifying than outside the city-state.

He would rather die at the hands of those sand monsters and sandworms than be assimilated and changed like Uncle Mu and others, and then lose his soul like an NPC and live here all the time.

It's scary to think about......

It's just that now that they've all arrived here, it seems that there is no retreat to speak of.

If you want to find Yunsheng and them, it is like entering the city-state, and it is also unsafe outside the city-state, and even Gu Yuan is not sure that if you stay outside the city-state, you will definitely not be assimilated.

"Let's go." He no longer hesitated, and followed Uncle Mu and them into the city-state.

As he entered the city gate, a cold wind suddenly blew in his face, and he could feel the coldness on his neck, and every hair stood up.

He turned his face and glanced at Fang Lan and Zhao Yong, both of them had a somewhat solemn expression, obviously, it was not just Gu Yuan who felt that strange cold wind.

Behind the city gate is a wide avenue, and on both sides of the road, there are some vendors, who look lively and lively, as if they have really crossed through in a trance.

Gu Yuan had made many assumptions before, but he really didn't expect that he could still feel the fireworks here.

Walking on the street, Uncle Mu and others also attracted a lot of onlookers.

They watched, not because they were curious about the identities of Gu Yuan and the others, but because they were shocked by the sand python meat they were dragging.

"Oh my God! Murad, what kind of sand monster have you encountered, and you can get so much meat! ”

"Hey, Tucker! You're in luck, this time it's a great ride! ”

"Damn, I should have gone with you, what kind of sand monster did you encounter?"

Based on these people alone, Uncle Mu and their acquaintances couldn't tell that they had encountered a sand python.

Uncle Mu has an introverted personality, and when he heard such an inquiry, he just responded with a smile, but did not give an answer, maybe these people also know the truth that wealth is not exposed, but other people are not as calm as Uncle Mu.

It didn't take long for the whole street to know that Uncle Mu and they had brought back the meat of the sand python this time, and now, the whole street was boiling.

"Oh my God! Oh, did you hear that? Murad: They actually met a sand python outside the city-state! ”

"What? Damn it...... Then they must have died outside, right? Even if they can escape, I am afraid that there will already be a lot of casualties. ”

"No, no, no, you're mistaken, not only did they come back alive, but they also brought back the flesh of the sand python, oh my God! You can't imagine how much meat a sand python has! ”

"Oh my God, then I'm going to have to go and see, how can they hunt sand pythons?"

Originally, the streets were lively enough, but now there are more and more people gathering in this direction, and the road is almost blocked.

Uncle Mu sighed, knowing in his heart that after he went back, the meat of the sand python had to be disposed of as soon as possible, part of it had to be handed over, and the other part had to be kept, otherwise, someone would be worried about it.

But at this moment, there was a sudden commotion ahead, followed by two screams.

"Get out of the way, get out of the way!"

Uncle Mu poked his head out and looked ahead, and his face suddenly changed.

"It's ...... law enforcement team"

The crowd hurriedly began to retreat to the left and right, and there was a sudden chaos, while Gu Yuan looked ahead with a little curiosity, that is, the place where the crowd was in turmoil.

A group of people in green uniforms, with white helmets on top of their heads, hurried along.

But suddenly, Gu Yuan's eyes froze, and he hurriedly walked a distance forward.

A man, who was being chased by those law enforcement team members, accidentally bumped into Gu Yuan's body, and when the other party raised his head, Gu Yuan saw the other party's appearance clearly, and his heart chuckled.

Although he didn't know how the other party came here and why he suddenly changed his clothes, after all, he had only seen it before, and Gu Yuan still remembered the appearance of the other party.

The knight who came with them, Tyne!

Just when Gu Yuan wanted to ask, he found that Tyne's face was pale and his eyes were bloodshot, and when he saw Gu Yuan, his face also showed a surprised expression, and then his lips trembled, and he grabbed Gu Yuan's arm.

His voice sounded hoarse, his tired face was still a little painful, and his facial features were a little distorted.

Watching Tyne being pressed to the ground by the law enforcement team, the hoarse voice of the other party seemed to still echo in his ears.

"Don't look at him...... Eye...... Don't look at him......"
