Chapter 42: Camp as You Please
The door of the train car was closed, Liu Liang stepped on the iron ladder into the cab, filled the boiler with coal, and after the pressure gauge rose, he directly pulled the lever to open the boiler, white steam sprayed out from the air valve, and the locomotive pulled the carriage and the minecart behind it and began to go on the road.
The train first departs to Wuzhukou Station, and then from Wuzhukou Station to the front station near the depot.
After getting off the bus from the front station, the road to the noble manor needs to be explored slowly. The map of the area that Liu Liang found last time in the office building of the depot came in handy, and he spread out the map in the compartment to take a closer look.
The noble manor is directly north of the front station, and it is about two kilometers away, and according to the time in the secret realm, it takes one day and one night to walk. The journey passes through an abandoned village and through a dark valley with lush vegetation, at the end of which is the castle of the noble manor.
Liu Liang put away the map, walked out of the carriage and looked up at the sky, and said to Lei Zhen and the disciples: "It's about to get dark, we need to stay at the train station for the night, and fill the station with torches to prevent monsters from attacking at night." ”
The disciples were all terrified when they heard it, and there were monsters attacking at night, and the beautiful journey and sightseeing process ended like this, and then there was the nightmare mode.
Liu Liang observed the damage in the waiting hall, the windows were not blocked by glass, and the front and back doors were not blocked. However, repairing the door doesn't help, these monsters far from the core are very tough, and breaking into the door is a basic operation for them.
What Liu Liang has to do now is to tear down the east wall and make up the west wall, use the collapsed stones in the hall to make a stone wall on the workbench, and the doors and windows are blocked with walls.
The only monster that can climb the wall and enter the hall from the dome is the spider, and the disciples of the Spider Thunder Gate have already practiced professional skills, and I believe they can do it.
Liu Liang immediately started construction, wielding a pickaxe to gouge away the ruins of the building, and the useless statue in the center of the hall was also cut off and broken into stones. He placed the stones in turn at the gates and then the windows, until no light came in from the outside, and only the faint light of the torches was left inside.
"The brightness is not enough, everyone puts the gas lamp on their backs to light it to prevent monsters from spawning in the hall."
"What, there are still monsters in the hall?"
This sentence points out an ultimate proposition in the weird secret realm, where do monsters come from. The poor Kaminari disciples thought that the monsters were the natives of this world, and as long as the speed of killing was better than the speed of their mutual fertility, the monsters should kill one less one.
But the truth is very cruel, monsters are produced in this world, as long as there is fog and darkness they exist.
Those who remain in this world need to learn to live with them, otherwise life will be terrible and difficult.
Liu Liang consciously said that he had leaked his mouth, he was afraid that he would scare these young men away, so he hurriedly talked to make up for himself.
"It's not that the hall is a monster, how can a hall be a monster? What this immortal means is that monsters like darkness rather than light, and as long as we light up the hall, they won't reach out from the outside to plane the wall, yes, I'm talking about reaching out, lighting up the hall, and don't let them put their hands in. ”
Lei Zhen nodded affirmatively, and gave the disciples an order: "Two go to the front door, two go to the back door to prevent the monster from breaking through the stone wall, and the rest are in the center with me, staring at the open part of the house." Beware of them falling from the sky. ”
Liu Liang waved his hand: "You don't have to be so nervous, there is a high probability that they won't be able to come in, so go and rest if you should rest." ”
High probability? What are the probabilities? They don't want to be disemboweled by monsters that can't get in at night in their sleep.
The night became dark, and there was a rustling sound and an eerie whining sound everywhere outside the platform, as if there were thousands of spiders and monsters moving outside, Lei Zhen and his disciples were furious when they heard it, and they were very worried that they would attack them in groups, how could this humble hall stop them.
Liu Liang was so at ease that he even took out the bed from the Qiankun Treasure Bag and placed it in the center of the hall to go to bed.
Lei Zhen almost broke the defense, my immortal master, at this most dangerous time, how can you still think of sleeping, how can you sleep?
Liu Liang was thinking about my eyes as soon as I closed and opened, a day passed, just fast forward to these boring moments.
Outside, there were two or three monsters cutting the wall, and the brother guarding the door clenched the long sword in his hand, and his heart was pounding.
There were things climbing on the walls on either side of the house, and Thunderquake looked nervously overhead. He remembered that the immortal master had said that these monsters were coming towards people, and that they would attack at night wherever people appeared. The strange thing is that the walls are blocked, they can't see inside, how do they know that there are people in the building, could it be that they smell humans by smell, these monsters have too good noses.
Liu Liang was already snoring while lying on the bed, Lei Zhen turned his head to look, and admired it in his heart, he was worthy of being an immortal, he could sleep in a room surrounded by monsters, and I Lei Zhen's cultivation heart would not reach this state in my life.
At this time, a disciple pointed to the top of his head and shouted, "Master, look, there is something scratching the wooden board on the roof." ”
He immediately assigned two disciples and said, "You go to the second floor and watch the point, and if something breaks the wooden plank and rushes down, you will warn them not to disturb the rest of the immortals." ”
The two disciples walked down the stairs to the circular corridor on the second floor with the Darkiron Sword in hand, and looked up nervously at the gap above that had been patched with wooden planks.
The gap looked very perfunctory in repair, just a few planks stacked on top of each other, not even using nail glue and tenon, and in some places there were gaps on which arthropods could be seen crawling around, flashing dark red glowing eyes, and every now and then huge grotesque birds swooped down from the sky and pecked the spiders away as food.
When the birds swooped, there was a lot of movement, the dome made a rumbling sound, and even cracked, and small stones fell down, but the wooden planks erected by the immortals were as stable as a rock, although they were constantly falling, but in terms of the stability of the building, you can always trust Liu Xianshi.
It was soon dawning, the monsters were all withdrawn from the door, and Lei Zhen and his disciples experienced a night of horror without danger.
Liu Liang sat up from the bed, knocked the bed off with a pickaxe, and then asked Lei Zhen and them, "I rested well last night, and while it was dawn, let's set off quickly." ”
Lei Zhen and his disciples looked at each other, wanting to speak but couldn't say anything, they wanted to sleep. While it turns out to be safe in the hall, who can sleep in that situation? “
Liu Liang carried a pickaxe to cut off the stones at the door, and led them on the expedition.
There is no end in sight to the forest, but the terrain shows that they are constantly going downhill, and Liu Liang walks at the back with a gas lamp on his back, always finding some new collection in the grass and bushes.
At this time, the forest was no longer a spider, a wolf, or a bear, but a large cockroach named Scarab. This must be Jiang Feng's prank on the text setting again, how can a scarab beetle be a cockroach, and a shell lang can't be a cockroach.
scarab
Health: 800
Attack: 120
After Lei Zhen and the others saw this giant insect, they also shouted "cockroach", it seems that no matter what kind of universe or plane, Xiaoqiang is a creature that will always exist.
After the creature is giantized, it will have a terrifying effect, not to mention the cockroaches that can scare the girl, Lei Zhangmen never dreamed that his swordsmanship would one day be used to deal with pests.
