Chapter 2635 A strange world everywhere
On the road by the stream, several travelers were slowly moving forward, carrying packages on their backs.
Whether a world is developed or not depends entirely on its transportation system. A backward transportation system can only show that the world is also backward.
The world is like this, backward and closed. Only when you are in a hurry can you realize what it means to be high in the mountains and long in the road.
For the aborigines, a distance of a hundred miles is another world.
If there is no need, they will never leave their hometown, but they will be buried where they were born.
But things are different now. With the coming of the demonic tide, the whole world is in chaos.
In order to survive, ordinary people had to leave their homes and find shelter from monsters.
Because of the chaos in the world, bandits have appeared in large numbers. They rob and kill passers-by and do all kinds of evil.
From time to time, the bodies of the victims are abandoned in ditches on the roadside, or hung from trees by dead vines, which look extremely miserable.
When people on the road see this scene, they will pretend to turn a blind eye. They have too much time to take care of themselves, so they have no time to care about anything else.
While walking, these travelers kept looking around, alerting themselves to danger.
They are just ordinary people who fled because their village was attacked by monsters. The journey along the way was thrilling at every step.
On the way there, they saw a lot of corpses. While they were frightened, their hearts gradually became numb.
“Listen, what’s going on ahead?”
A middle-aged man walking at the front suddenly stopped and said in a wary tone.
Hearing this, several villagers following behind also stopped and listened carefully with their ears raised.
The screams were faintly heard. They were the wails made before death, containing deep fear and despair.
"Are they robbers? If so, we'd better hide quickly!"
A villager lowered his voice and said, his eyes full of fear, and his body was shaking gently. Trembling.
Several other villagers nodded at the same time. They were afraid of encountering robbers, and their lives would be in danger.
He hurriedly climbed into the woods on the side of the road, covered his body with weeds, and kept his breathing to a minimum.
After waiting for a long time and no sound was heard, the villagers climbed out carefully.
They guessed that the gangsters had left, so they walked forward secretly, being careful along the way.
Not far away, I saw corpses covering the ground, and the smell of blood hit my face.
Several villagers were so frightened that their hearts beat 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 on their way, but robbers who blocked the road.
The problem is that these robbers died strangely. They all committed suicide or were killed by their companions. Their expressions were ferocious and frightened, as if they had been greatly frightened.
The villagers were secretly glad that if they were caught by these robbers, they would definitely be killed by them.
At the same time, I also secretly wondered why these robbers died on the road and in such a strange and bizarre manner.
"Pick up these weapons. If you encounter danger, you can also use them for self-defense."
The selling price of weapons is not low, and ordinary villagers rarely own them. Their self-defense The weapons were nothing more than sticks and sickles.
Nowadays, when you encounter free weapons, you naturally want to pick them up for self-defense. Even if you don't use them, you can sell them in exchange for something in the future.
As a result, as soon as the weapons were obtained, they saw a figure in a robe not far in front of them, looking at them silently.
"Clang!"
The villagers were startled, and the weapons in their hands fell to the ground, and then they picked them up in panic and laid them across their chests.
They gathered together, looking at the stranger in front of them with vigilance, their bodies trembling uncontrollably.
No one dared to speak, they just subconsciously stepped back, trying to escape from this place.
After taking a dozen steps back, they found that the strange figure in front of them was motionless. Several villagers turned around and ran away without hesitation.
Then they discovered that the figure appeared behind them at some point, looking at them expressionlessly. Such a strange sight scared the villagers out of their wits, and they turned around and fled again.
Then they discovered that there was that strange figure standing in front of and on the left and right, looking at them expressionlessly.
Dark gray mist rose from the surrounding woods, confining them in this small area.
Several villagers were so frightened that they collapsed on the ground, knowing that something strange had happened to them, and that the gangsters might have died because of this.
Seeing the four identical figures in robes, the villagers were filled with despair.
After waiting for a long time, the four figures never moved, as if they were lifeless statues.
Several villagers felt strange, and at the same time they were afraid and curious. They couldn't understand why the monster didn't kill them?
So they tried to get up again, preparing to avoid the four strange figures and slip through the gap between them.
Unexpectedly, as soon as they took a few steps, the villagers saw another strange figure standing in front of them in the dissipating fog.
The same goes for turning around and going in other directions, blocking the villagers' escape route.
Seeing this, several villagers could only return to the center of the road, their faces full of despair and confusion, not knowing what to do.
Although they have weapons, they absolutely dare not attack these strange figures, otherwise they may die faster.
If you stay where you are, you may live longer.
At this moment, a villager suddenly spoke, with a hint of surprise and panic in his tone.
"Have you noticed that these monsters are approaching us?"
After hearing what this villager said, the other villagers were shocked and quickly opened their eyes to observe carefully.
As a result, they discovered that these strange figures were really moving secretly, getting closer and closer to their location.
After discovering this, the villagers became more panicked and began to observe more carefully.
As a result, they found that when their eyes fell on these strange figures, they would stop moving.
But as long as you look away or blink, these strange figures will keep approaching.
But it only moves a little at a time. If you don't look carefully, you won't be able to spot it at all.
After discovering this pattern, the villagers were so frightened that they stared at the strange figures with wide eyes.
They did not dare to close their eyes or move their eyes, for fear that those strange figures would come in front of them in the next moment.
The problem is that they are not stone statues, and it is impossible to keep an eye on those strange figures. As time goes by, the strange figures are getting closer and closer to the villagers.
Despair and panic are constantly accumulating until people completely collapse.
Several villagers became more and more panicked, looking at the strange figure getting closer and closer to them. Finally, one villager couldn't bear the fear in his heart and raised his sword to chop at it.
The knife seemed to strike the shadow, and the strange figure suddenly disappeared, like a broken bubble.
The villager was overjoyed when he saw this, rushed out, and then turned back to greet other villagers.
As a result, he saw that several other villagers looked at him with fearful eyes and pointed at the top of his head with trembling fingers.
The villagers suddenly felt something bad and looked up in horror.
Then he saw the strange figure riding on his neck, bending down and staring at him.
The villager screamed in despair, raised the knife and stabbed his body, trying to end his life.
Unexpectedly, at this moment, an invisible force controlled the sword, and then a tall figure appeared.
After taking a look twice, he raised his hand and shot a white flame towards the strange figure.
A shrill scream came, all the strange figures disappeared instantly, the gloomy fog dissipated, and the sun shone in the forest again.
Several villagers escaped death and rushed to the man, kowtowing and saluting.
"I'm just doing it casually. Please tell me first, where is the Nine Tombs Valley?"
Tang Zhen waved his hand and said in a light tone.
