Before dawn, we left the town of the dead.

We re-charted a route based on the notes provided by Liu.

This route deviates from the Great Abyss Pond where the corpse demons appeared, bypassing a cemetery, a ghost village.

If nothing else, you'll arrive at the Styx Black Store in two days.

From now on, we are completely in the Land of the Dead.

This place is very cloudy and the temperature is very low.

Because there is no specific road, the vehicle is directly driving on the Gobi Desert, and at this time I realized why the boss spent so much money to modify the car.

In this kind of terrain, if the vehicle is not modified, it may break down at some point.

The vehicle is the leg of the exorcist, and even the leg is gone, and the probability of dying here is basically more than 80%.

Because it was my first time in the Land of the Dead, my boss told me a lot about it on the way.

There are seven ghost kings and two corpse kings in the land of the dead.

There are hundreds, or hundreds, of imps or zombies.

Of course, those who can hold together are basically a bit brainy.

But more often than not, they are lonely ghosts and graveyard corpses roaming the wilderness.

Because of the mutilated soul, the IQ of the lonely soul and wild ghost is very low, and when they see a living person, they only know how to pounce on it, and they can't even speak.

And the corpses in the cemetery are all guys who lack arms and legs, and can't even jump.

But because of the particularity of the cemetery, if you don't have the ability to rush in, I'm afraid it will be difficult to get out alive.

When I heard this, I understood that in fact, there is a difference between being prepared and not being organized.

Those who have an organization are all with normal brains, and they are mainly ghost kings and corpse kings, firmly hugging each other. On the one hand, hunt the exorcists who enter here, and on the other hand, compete with the rest of the ghost kings, corpse kings, for resources.

They are organized, they have brains, and they can be considered a "regular army".

The one who has no brains is the master who doesn't love his father and mother, so he can only live in the wilderness by himself.

When they met an exorcist, they were taken away as experimental materials, or they were dissected and taken away, no one cared about them.

Anyway, the exorcists who die here every year are not less to say.

And because of the special terrain, there are countless new souls and zombies.

Zhang Sanfen said to me as he drove forward.

On the way, I saw a cemetery in the distance, with broken tombstones, tattered tombs, and coffins scattered on the ground.

And that lingering wisp of corpse gas.

Zhang Sanfen took a detour very cautiously and did not provoke the other party.

In the afternoon, we saw another funeral procession.

This team is obviously made up of undead souls, and they also have a certain amount of sanity.

The guy in the lead also seemed to hear the sound of the car, and kept his eyes looking this way.

But our vehicle has long been labeled with runes, and no matter how much this guy looks at it, he can't find the vehicle.

Of course, Zhang Sanfen will not be stupid enough to take the initiative to provoke the other party.

I asked my boss why there were still ghosts haunting me when it was daytime.

Aren't they afraid of the sun overhead?

Zhang Sanfen replied, "The reason why the Land of the Dead is called the Land of the Dead is because the Yin Qi here is enough to offset the Yang Qi brought by the sun. ”

"And the River Styx, which exudes enough yin energy for the revenants to appear during the day."

"Here, the revenants don't like to appear during the day, it's not that they can't appear during the day."

I smacked my tongue secretly.

Everything here is very different from the outside world.

At least I've never seen a ghost carrying a coffin around in broad daylight.

Along the way, we stopped and twisted and turned, and by the time it was just dark, we arrived at our first accommodation.

It is said to be a place to stay, but it is a relatively safe place.

It's a canyon, and on the surface, it's supposed to be a dry course left behind by the diversion of the River Styx.

It is more than 20 kilometers away from the nearest ghost village or cemetery, and because the terrain is smooth, it is not suitable for evil spirits.

Zhang Sanfen hid the car, and then took out a sapper shovel to dig two large holes on the side of the river.

He said to me, "The night in the Land of the Dead is a time of revelry for the demons, and unless you have to, find a place to rest, or you will die." ”

"Don't light a fire tonight, don't turn on the lights, rest early after eating, and as soon as the sun comes out tomorrow, we'll continue on our way."

I nodded, and then pulled out the canned beef from the car, the self-kettle.

It was very cold at night, so I threw the canned beef into the kettle and boiled it for more than ten minutes before throwing one to Zhang Sanfen.

The canned beef tastes good, and with compressed biscuits and hot water, it also mixes a round belly.

After eating, the two of us began to get busy, setting up early warning devices and calculating where to retreat if something happened at night.

After finishing his work, Zhang Sanfen said to me: "There must be someone to keep vigil in the land of the undead, and those early warning devices are sometimes unreliable. ”

"You call me at twelve o'clock in the first half of the night, and I will be on duty in the second half of the night."

I knew that the boss was taking care of me, and the vigil was naturally the hardest in the second half of the night.

At that time, people's mental strength and vigilance will decrease.

On the contrary, it is a little more comfortable in the first half of the night, and you can sleep until dawn after twelve o'clock.

I nodded, put on my hat and gloves, and crouched behind a mound.

This place has a great view, and you can see it from almost all directions.

On the contrary, it is because this dry river is relatively deep, and we cannot be seen from a distance.

It was my first night in the Land of the Dead.

The sky here is clean and there are a lot of stars.

The only bad thing is that it's a bit cold, I looked at the temperature displayed on my watch, it's minus three degrees now.

Well, the Mobei region is originally a bitter cold place, and the yin qi is very heavy, so it's no wonder it's not cold.

The first half of the night was fine, and it was spent peacefully.

At twelve o'clock, before I could call my boss, he crawled out of his sleeping bag and said, "Go and get some rest." ”

"Don't take off your clothes when you sleep, and don't take off your shoes."

"Also, don't sleep too hard."

He was completely treating me like a rookie.

I honestly followed the instructions, didn't even take off my shoes and clothes, and got into the sleeping bag.

In fact, it was very uncomfortable to sleep like this, but because I was tired during the day and was on duty just now, I soon fell asleep in a daze.

I don't know how long I slept, but suddenly I opened my eyes suddenly, and then a hand covered my mouth.

I was shocked to find that Zhang Sanfen was making a silent gesture to me under the starlight.

Then he whispered: "Don't make noise, there is a situation!" ”

I slipped out of my sleeping bag and took the Demon Thorn in my hand.

After listening closely, I realized that there was the roar of an engine in the distance.

I glanced at Zhang Sanfen, and he whispered, "It's an exorcist." ”

"But don't get too happy, it's not necessarily a good thing to meet an exorcist in this place!"
