2637 The strange world everywhere (1)
On the road by the stream, a few travelers were slowly moving forward with their bags on their backs.
Whether a world was developed or not depended on the transportation system. An outdated transportation system could only mean that the world was also backward.
This world was like this, backward and closed. Only when one was in a hurry could one experience what it meant to be high and far.
To the natives, a distance of a hundred miles was like another world.
If there was no need, they would never leave their homes, but would be buried wherever they were born.
However, things were different now. With the arrival of the dark wave, the entire world was in chaos.
In order to survive, ordinary people had to leave their homes and find a shelter to avoid monsters.
Because of the chaos in the world, bandits also appeared in large numbers. They robbed and killed passers-by, committing all kinds of evil.
From time to time, the bodies of the dead would be abandoned in the ditches by the roadside or hung on the trees by withered vines. They looked extremely miserable.
When the travelers saw this scene, they would pretend not to see it. They were busy with their own affairs, so how could they have the time to care about other things?
As these travelers walked, they constantly looked around, wary of any danger.
They were just ordinary people who had fled because their village had been attacked by monsters. Every step they took was filled with fear.
They had seen many corpses along the way. While they were frightened, their hearts gradually became numb.
“Listen, what’s going on in front?”
The middle-aged man walking in front suddenly stopped and said in a cautious tone.
The few villagers behind him also stopped and listened carefully.
A faint scream could be heard. It was the wail before death, containing deep fear and despair.
are they robbers? if they are, we’d better hide!
One of the villagers said in a low voice. His eyes were filled with fear and his body was trembling.
The other villagers nodded at the same time. They were afraid of running into robbers, who would definitely lose their lives.
He hurriedly crawled into the forest by the road and covered his body with weeds. Even the sound of his breathing was suppressed to the lowest.
After waiting for a long time, there was no more sound. The villagers then carefully climbed out.
They guessed that the criminals had already left, so they sneaked forward, very careful.
In the end, they didn’t walk far before they saw that the ground was covered with corpses, and the smell of blood assaulted their senses.
The villagers were so scared that their hearts were beating wildly. They suppressed the fear in their hearts and slowly moved forward.
“Something’s wrong, there’s something wrong with these corpses!”
The villagers soon discovered that these corpses were not travelers who were in a hurry, but bandits who had blocked the road.
The problem was that these robbers had died in a strange way. They had either committed suicide or were killed by their companions. Their expressions were ferocious and frightened, as if they had been greatly frightened.
The villagers rejoiced inwardly. If they had been caught by these bandits, they would have definitely been killed.
At the same time, he was also puzzled. Why did these robbers die on the road, and in such a strange way?
take these weapons. If we encounter any danger, we can use them for self-defense.
The price of weapons was not low, and ordinary villagers rarely owned them. Their self-defense weapons were only sticks and Sickles.
Now that he had come across a free weapon, he naturally had to pick it up for self-defense. Even if he couldn’t use it, he could sell it for some other things in the future.
However, just as they got their weapons, they saw a figure in a long robe not far away from them, looking at them silently.
“Clang!”
The villager was so shocked that the weapon in his hand fell to the ground. Then he picked it up in a panic and held it horizontally in front of his chest.
They gathered together and sized up the stranger in front of them with vigilance, their bodies trembling uncontrollably.
No one dared to speak. They just subconsciously retreated, trying to escape from this place.
After retreating a dozen steps, the villagers realized that the strange figure in front of them was not moving. They turned around and ran without hesitation.
Then, they realized that the figure had appeared behind them and was looking at them expressionlessly
Such a strange scene scared the villagers out of their wits, and they turned around to escape again.
Then, they realized that the strange figure was looking at them expressionlessly from all directions.
In the surrounding forest, a dark gray mist rose, trapping them in this small area.
Several villagers were so scared that they fell to the ground, knowing that they had encountered a strange thing and that those bandits were likely to have died because of this.
Looking at the four long-robed figures that looked exactly the same, the villagers were filled with despair.
After waiting for a long time, the four figures still did not move, as if they were lifeless statues.
The villagers felt strange. They were afraid, but at the same time, they were curious. They could not understand why the monster did not kill them.
Therefore, they tried to get up again, ready to avoid the four strange figures and slip away through the gaps between them.
Who would have thought that just after taking a few steps, the villagers would see another strange figure in the dispersing fog, blocking their way.
When they turned around and walked in other directions, the same thing happened, blocking the villagers ‘escape routes.
Seeing that, the villagers had no choice but to return to the middle of the road. With desperation and confusion on their faces, they did not know what to do.
Although they had weapons, they definitely didn’t dare to attack these strange figures, as that might cause them to die even faster.
If they stayed where they were, they might live longer.
At this moment, a villager suddenly spoke with a hint of surprise and panic in his voice.
did you guys notice that these monsters are approaching us? ”
After hearing this villager’s words, the other villagers were shocked and quickly widened their eyes to observe carefully.
In the end, they discovered that these strange figures were really moving stealthily, getting closer and closer to their position.
After discovering this, the villagers became even more panicked and began to observe more seriously.
In the end, they discovered that when their eyes fell on these strange figures, they would stop moving.
However, as long as they looked away or blinked, these strange figures would continue to approach.
However, it only moved a little each time. If one did not observe carefully, they would not notice it at all.
After discovering this pattern, the villagers were so scared that their scalps went numb. They stared at those strange figures with wide eyes.
They didn’t dare to close their eyes, nor did they dare to look away, for fear that those strange figures would appear in front of them in the next moment.
The problem was that they were not stone statues, so it was impossible for them to keep an eye on those strange figures. As time passed, the strange figures were getting closer and closer to the villagers.
Despair and panic were building up, until they completely collapsed.
The villagers became more and more flustered. Looking at the strange figure getting closer and closer to them, finally, one of the villagers couldn’t bear the fear in his heart and raised the sword in his hand to cut it.
It was as if the blade had struck a shadow. The strange figure suddenly disappeared, like a popped bubble.
The villager was overjoyed to see this and rushed out. He then turned around to call the other villagers.
In the end, he saw that the other villagers were looking at him with fear in their eyes and pointing at his head with trembling fingers.
The villagers immediately had a bad feeling and looked up in horror.
Then, he saw that the strange figure was riding on his neck, bending over and staring at him.
The villager screamed in despair and stabbed his own body, trying to end his life.
However, at this moment, an invisible force took control of the sword and saber. Then, a tall figure appeared.
After taking a few looks, he raised his hand and shot out a white flame at the strange figure.
A shrill scream rang out, and all the strange figures disappeared in an instant. The gloomy fog dissipated, and the sun once again shone on the forest.
A few villagers who had just escaped death rushed to the man and kowtowed continuously.
I’m just doing it in passing. Tell me first, where is the nine tomb Valley? ”
Tang Zhen waved his hand and spoke in an indifferent tone.
