Chapter 136: A Gathering Place for Wanderers
As an old descendant, Chen Jing's simple breath judgment was enough to determine that this polluted species that was instantly killed by the giant crow was definitely stronger than the people he had met at the beginning......
Looking back now, Chen Jing suddenly had a feeling that things were wrong.
He almost let those people die at the beginning.
But now?
Chen Jing looked at the huge corpse of the polluted species in a daze, and the voice of Bai Aji sounded in his mind.
"That...... Can I eat it? ”
Chen Jing nodded subconsciously, and before he could say anything, Bai Aji rushed out of his backpack.
It also seems to be extremely hungry, changing from liquid black water to solid at a rapid rate......
Everyone only vaguely saw a puddle of black water rushing out of the car window.
The next second.
The manifest Baiaji was already lying next to the polluted species, and began to gnaw at the disgusting corpse with a snort.
Yan Que's crow had been hovering in the air, and it didn't seem to have much interest in this corpse, even if the two sides were far apart, Chen Jing could feel the disdain in its eyes when it looked at Bai Aji......
It's like seeing your own kind eating.
"Let's go first."
Chen Bofu was not interested in this kind of vignette, perhaps because the strength of the polluted species was too weak to enter his old man's eyes at all.
He yawned as he cowered in his chair, covered his face with his bucket hat, put his hands on the window frame, and pointed leisurely ahead.
"Twenty miles further in this direction, I remember there was a gathering place for wanderers, and we would rest there for one night before we walked......"
"Yes, sir!"
The RV continued to drive forward, and when he passed by Bai Aji, Chen Jing was still a little worried about leaving this godson here.
"Remember to keep up later! Don't get lost! ”
"Woo woo...... Bai Aji didn't raise his head when he ate, and his mouth whined in response.
The flesh and blood of this kind of polluted species have little effect on the old descendants, at least most of the old descendants dare not eat them, unless they are some high-order monsters......
As he passed by the corpse, Chen Jing deliberately took a closer look.
The polluted species that was slain by the giant crow was actually a mutated giant worm, or rather...... Caterpillar?
It's just that the volume and shape of this polluted species are a bit weird.
Its body is at least nearly fifty meters long, and the reddened skin surface is covered with dense human arms, like the hairs that grow on the body of a caterpillar.
I thought that Bai Aji was just eating a few bites to fill his stomach, but soon Chen Jing found that Bai Aji seemed to be rushing to eat up the polluted seeds.
It's only a matter of ten seconds.
The massive worm's body was a quarter shorter.
"I didn't expect its mouth to be faster than a meat grinder...... "Chen Jing slowly sat back and closed the car window.
Although the temperature in the wasteland is higher than that of the Eternal Night Market, and the evening breeze blows quite coolly at night, the air seems to be annoying with those moss spores all the time, like pollen.
"Don't look at it, hurry up and play cards!" Kui Nan sat in his place, with a smile on his face, "No matter how hard I try, Yanque will have to lose all his family!" ”
"Don't worry about Aggie, it'll follow." "It's much smarter than a crow." ”
"Raven?" Chen Jing was stunned, she didn't expect her to give such a cute name to that terrifying giant crow.
"There are a lot of polluted species in the wasteland, but your Baiaji should be stronger than most of the polluted species, don't worry about it." Yan Que comforted.
"I'm just afraid it gets lost." Chen Jing said worriedly, "Because I feel that it has always been quite unintelligent......"
"Exciting, huh?"
Suddenly, the old man sitting in the co-pilot spoke and asked with interest.
"Isn't this a lot more fun than the City of Eternal Night?"
"It's a lot more fun, but it's also a lot more dangerous." Chen Jing sighed.
"You are an old descendant, what are you afraid of, ordinary people should be afraid!" Chen Bofu laughed and said, "The air in the wasteland is poisonous, and ordinary people have to wear gas masks to live here." ”
"The air is poisonous?" Chen Jing was stunned, as if he didn't notice anything wrong with the air in the wasteland.
"Moss spores, filth pollution, and those things in the sky......" Chen Bofu tilted his head to look at the night sky outside the car window, and said in a loud voice, "I don't know how long this good weather can last......
"Maybe it's going to heat up tomorrow." Kui Nan said that she had been to the wasteland a few times before, so she had some experience, "That temperature can burn people, our car ......"
"What am I afraid of?" Chen Bofu said impatiently.
After that, Chen Bofu glanced at his good grandson from the rearview mirror, and sighed with words in his mouth.
"I wanted to bring you to the wasteland before, but at that time you were weak and still an ordinary person...... In the city of eternal night, you can get lost in the moon with too much sun. ”
Too much sun?
Chen Jing couldn't help but want to laugh when he heard the old man's words, because he suddenly remembered the picture of the first time he traveled to the inner world......
At that time, the city of eternal night was like a demon cave to him, worse than a copy of a horror game.
was first scared half to death by Aunt Hong's mother and son, and then almost lost as soon as he went out.
Get on the bus.
It's all pitch black outside, too.
Nothing can be seen.
I didn't see any light until I got out of the car.
It was also at this moment that Chen Jingcai suddenly realized...... Not to mention that ordinary people are living in the wasteland, it is very difficult to survive safely in the Eternal Night Market.
Leave aside the old people who occasionally go crazy.
The biggest threat to Eternal Night is the moon in the sky.
That's right.
The [Moonlight Retreat] follows the deity Gejero, who has had a profound impact on the city of Eternal Night from beginning to end.
Those moonshines have always had some kind of indescribable "polluting power".
Putting aside the moon worship period that will make low-level old people go crazy, the most intuitive manifestation is that it will damage the visual system of ordinary people.
Or to be manipulated.
It's like Chen Jing who just came to the Eternal Night Market.
Occasionally you can see the road.
Occasionally, I feel that it is pitch black in front of me.
Outside of the moon worship period.
At all times, an indescribable fog hangs over the city.
Until after becoming an old descendant.
Chen Jing was able to see the whole picture of the eternal night.
"Is Gegero's influence limited to the City of the Night?" Chen Jing suddenly asked the old man, "I found that I couldn't see it when I just walked out of the city gate......
"It's normal not to see."
Chen Bofu said with a smile, and patiently gave Chen Jingpu a popular science.
"Gejero is not stupid, there are too many old sources of pollution left in this war wasteland, and if it comes, it may be polluted itself......"
"It's all like that." Yan Que suddenly gave Chen Jing an example, "Whether it is the Eternal Night Market, the Polar Day, or the Hanging City...... The gods of each of the city's indigenous sects do not set foot outside the city. ”
Chen Jing nodded thoughtfully.
Connect this information with the memories of the inner world.
He suddenly felt that the remarks of some "old scientists" were quite reliable.
The world seems to be a whole.
But more like a severed stump.
Every city is a small world in its own right.
Wasteland, deep sea.
It's two separate worlds again.
Do not affect each other, do not depend on each other.
"That's it! Drive in! ”
Chen Bofu suddenly sat up straight, staring straight at a campfire camp in front of the wasteland.
"See that pile of tents? I even ran over people with tents! ”
