Chapter 285: The mobs are spawned in the uninhabited land
After taking the dog away from the experimental site that was struck by lightning.
It's a long journey again.
Although Xi'an can be considered to be located in the southeast corner of the Loess Plateau, it is actually the Guanzhong Plain between the Loess Plateau and the Qinling Mountains.
This can also be said to be the Weihe Plain.
This is because this plain was created by the perennial erosion of the Wei River and its tributaries.
So after leaving Xi'an.
He was walking in a north-west direction.
We didn't officially enter the Loess Plateau until noon. We can only say that the surrounding environment has begun to change as we gradually approach the Loess Plateau.
As we get further and further away from Xi'an, the landforms gradually begin to show the typical characteristics of the Loess Plateau - undulating loess landforms, ravines and crisscrossing the surface, and occasionally visible terraces.
At noon, the sun is high.
There is a dry smell in the air.
Chen Yun chose a slightly flat place to rest, mainly so that the dog could rest.
He really didn't need a break.
But he is not the stupid dog Bai Jin who has been hugging him all the time, but he is really exhausted.
He took out water and put it on the ground for the silly dog to drink.
While squatting on the side of the road, quietly looking into the distance.
Here, he could see the outline of mountains in the distance, which was a unique scenery of the Loess Plateau.
The vegetation on the ground becomes sparse, and occasionally some plants adapted to the arid environment can be seen taking root tenaciously on this land.
Although the road next to me was empty, it also stretched into the distance.
He looked down at the stupid dog Bai Jin who was trying hard to drink water.
Chen Yun couldn't help but smile.
If he wanted to, he could just hold the silly dog Bai Jin and rush on at full speed. By now he would have crossed the Loess Plateau and reached Inner Mongolia.
But his plan to travel around the world is not just about rushing to check in.
It’s fun to walk slowly along the way.
At least in Chen Yun's opinion, walking the dog in this slightly remote place has a unique flavor.
The surrounding scenery at this moment.
It actually looks a bit like a lighthouse country western.
And when he was thinking like this.
Chang Kai's transparent world perception noticed a car approaching from a distance.
The car stands out in such a remote area.
It was an old gray car with a slightly worn body and seemed to have gone through a lot of wind and rain.
The paint on the body is a little mottled and peeling off, but its former glory can still be seen.
The car window was half open, and judging from the accent of the man singing along with the car music, it was certain that there was an enthusiastic Northeastern man sitting in the car.
as the vehicle approaches.
Chen Yun heard the roar of the engine. The sound was not particularly loud, but it seemed particularly clear in this silent environment.
The speed of the car is not fast, maybe to adapt to this uneven road, or maybe the driver wants to enjoy the scenery along the way.
When the car approached Chen Yun's location, the Northeastern man slowed down.
He rolled down the window and shouted: "Hey! Where are you going, young man?"
His voice was loud and cordial.
"Lingchuan County."
Chen Yun thought for a moment and replied.
Naturally, I didn't intend to go there.
I say this mainly because the distance between Lingchuan County and Lingchuan County is not too far. Even if ordinary people really walk, they can definitely get there before dark.
As far as this distance is concerned.
Only then did he appear to be a walking guy who was not suspicious.
Moreover, Lingchuan County is a small city on the southeastern edge of the Loess Plateau, so going there does not violate Chen Yun's own purpose of going to the Loess Plateau.
"I'm just on my way, do you want a lift?"
The Northeastern eldest brother asked again.
His words were full of sincerity and care.
At least according to Chen Yun's emotional perception ability, this seems to be the case.
Seeing that Chen Yun seemed a little hesitant.
The Northeastern eldest brother continued to persuade me a few more words.
He didn't seem to worry at all that Chen Yun, who was walking his dog alone on this remote road, was a bad guy.
His level of enthusiasm suddenly made people feel like he was a total social terror.
Don't get me wrong.
The sociophobia mentioned here is not social phobia.
But a social terrorist!
This enthusiastic elder brother fits Chen Yun’s stereotype of Northeasterners very well. He is so enthusiastic that even a native of Jiangnan is at a loss as to what to do.
Finally, Chen Yun decided to accept his kindness.
Be someone else.
In such a relatively remote place, I am afraid that I would not dare to accept the kindness of strangers easily.
But Chen Yun is different.
Not only does he have the ability to perceive emotions between good and bad, but he also possesses a terrifying power that is not afraid of any danger.
so.
Chen Yun got into the car with the silly dog Bai Jin in his arms.
Taking a ride with a kind-hearted person is an experience not to be missed.
They got into the car together.
The eldest brother from the Northeast introduced himself enthusiastically: "My name is Li Sihai. Seeing that you are so young, you can call me Brother Sihai. If you can help when you are out, help me. This is what we Northeastern people pay attention to."
Chen Yun also responded with a smile: "I am Chen Yun, and this is my dog Platinum. Thank you for taking us for a ride."
Said.
Chen Yun Baijin hugged Li Sihai.
Li Sihai laughed loudly when he heard this: "What a good name, Bai Jin. It sounds like a rich dog."
Platinum seemed to understand.
He blinked and looked at Li Sihai obediently.
"Okay, sit tight, let's set off."
With that said, Li Sihai turned on the car stereo and played old songs full of the sense of the times.
He hummed along, and his singing voice revealed a kind of boldness and freedom.
The big brother from Northeast China continues to move forward along this road leading to the depths of the Loess Plateau.
The atmosphere inside the car was very pleasant.
They chatted about their stories and shared interesting moments from their journey.
Chen Yun didn't use his superpowers, he just chatted quietly with his normal mind.
You can tell from the dialogue.
This Northeastern eldest brother is called Li Sihai.
Ever since I found myself suddenly unlucky a few years ago, I started traveling by car. Because a certain folk remedy says that walking in all directions can alleviate bad luck.
I don’t know if the bad luck will be relieved or not.
Li Sihai really fell in love with self-driving travel.
After listening to Li Sihai talk for a long time, Chen Yun couldn't help laughing at his experience during that unfortunate period.
I ate beer caps when I ate sesame seed cakes, I ate mothballs when I ate wontons, I swatted flies on nails, I went to Qingsong Temple to burn incense, I dropped my cell phone in the merit box and couldn’t get it out...
Chen Yun didn't know if luck existed.
Or to be precise, I’m not sure if there really is such a thing as luck in a narrow sense.
but……
If you are unlucky enough.
It's really hard not to suspect that Li Sihai is really being targeted by a bad guy like a broom star.
The two continued to discuss it for a while.
Not long after, the vehicle arrived in Lingchuan County.
After entering Lingchuan County, Chen Yun saw a vibrant scene through the car window.
Although this is still a relatively remote area, the various crops grown in the farmland look particularly green in the sunshine, and occasionally you can see a few small villages dotted here and there.
Most of the houses in the village are khaki brick structures, with roofs covered with blue-gray tiles, blending in with the surrounding environment.
Li Sihai drove through several small villages. When the children in the village saw Chen Yun and his silly dog Bai Jin in the car, they would wave and say hello excitedly.
Chen Yun smiled back in a friendly manner, while Bai Jin curiously stuck his head out and barked at the children, seeming to enjoy the interaction.
“Although Lingchuan County is not big, it’s best to have a car as a backup.” Li Sihai said, “If you are willing, I can take you to the market in the town, where there should be local food and handicrafts. "
"Okay, then I'll trouble Brother Sihai." Chen Yun nodded.
Now that I'm here, it's not a bad idea to take a look at the culture on the edge of the Loess Plateau.
"No trouble, no trouble." Li Sihai smiled heartily, "Let's go right now."
Soon after, they arrived in the center of Lingchuan County.
Although it is located in a remote place.
But after all, it is a modern society, and most places are not too deserted.
Although not high-rise buildings, there are still many small western-style buildings.
It was about three o'clock in the afternoon.
There is a lively market here that has just started to get busy. The streets are lined with various stalls selling fresh produce, handwoven products and various snacks.
The air is filled with the aroma of various foods.
The tourists passing by here all sniffed involuntarily.
They walked around the market for a while.
Although Chen Yun had no appetite, he also tasted some local specialty snacks, such as handmade cold skin, grilled mutton skewers and sweet candied haws.
Platinum was also given some snacks and seemed novel and excited about it all.
After visiting the market.
Chen Yun and Li Sihai parted ways.
It turned out that Li Sihai was not along the way at all and was just too enthusiastic to help Chen Yun.
At this time, he was ready to drive to his original destination.
Before leaving.
Chen Yun gave this unexpected friend a bamboo flying sword.
This thing doesn't look like anything valuable.
Li Sihai didn't refuse.
After a few more pleasantries with Chen Yun, he drove out of sight in his car.
Chen Yun silently watched Li Sihai go away.
Wait until it really goes far away and disappears from the range of perception of the transparent world.
Chen Yun also embarked on the journey with Platinum.
He doesn't plan to stay here either.
This was not his original destination either.
To be precise, Lingchuan County was indeed on his path, but it was just a place he would pass through, and he did not originally intend to stop here.
It's just that Li Sihai's hospitality was too much to resist, so he stopped here to have some fun.
Next.
Chen Yun planned to continue heading deeper into the Loess Plateau.
Think so.
Chen Yun decisively set off with steady steps.
Although the natural conditions of the Loess Plateau are relatively harsh, due to its long history of human activities and dense population distribution, most areas are inhabited, especially near rivers and places with convenient transportation.
but.
Some remote mountainous areas on the Loess Plateau are affected by harsh natural conditions and backward economic conditions.
The population is sparse and can be considered close to no man's land.
The "no man's land" here does not refer to an area without people at all, but to an area with very low population density.
at this point.
After Chen Yun officially entered the Loess Plateau, he had a deep understanding of it.
As it goes deeper, the population density decreases significantly.
The distances between villages became vast.
Sometimes, not even a single person can be seen for many kilometers.
The roads became more bumpy and the scenery became monotonous and bleak.
Fortunately, these have no impact on Chen Yun.
Such a remote scenery has its own unique flavor.
Not long.
The sky gradually darkened.
The sun slowly sank into the horizon, leaving behind a gorgeous sunset glow.
At this time, on the Loess Plateau, the sky was dyed orange-red, and the clouds were as gorgeous as burning flames.
As the last ray of the sun disappears, the color of the sky gradually changes from blazing orange to deep purple-blue, until it finally merges into the night.
The surrounding scenery became hazy, and the clearly visible outlines of ravines and hills became blurry.
After the last twilight on the horizon disappeared.
Stars began to appear one by one, dotting the dark blue sky.
As the night deepens, more and more stars appear, forming a spectacular starry sky picture.
On nights like this.
The wind on the Loess Plateau has also become softer.
Occasionally it blows through, bringing a bit of coolness.
There is a faint smell of dust in the air.
There was silence all around.
Chen Yun stood on a high ground, looking at the land that was gradually shrouded in night. He felt a sense of tranquility and peace that he had never experienced before.
In such an environment, all worries seem to be forgotten, leaving only the peace of mind and awe of nature.
certainly……
Chen Yun actually had no worries to give up.
Even in difficult situations like now.
Chen Yun knows.
For ordinary people, finding suitable accommodation on this remote Loess Plateau can be a problem.
But for him, this is not a problem.
He can use his special abilities to find a safe haven, or simply head out into the wild and travel through the night.
sleep? rest?
No need!
If Bai Jin wanted to sleep, he could just sleep in his arms or shoulders.
Chen Yun can let him experience what the ultimate human gimbal balancer feels like.
Thinking like this.
After walking for a long time in this no-man's land where there was a small road but no one around, Chen Yun suddenly noticed something with his world-clear perception.
Not far away in a place where no one should be.
There seems to be such a family...
Auto repair shop?
How can there be a car repair shop in this desolate place?
He stopped and stared ahead.
This shop stood out in the night, with no other buildings or lights around it. It stood there alone, as if it was there specifically to wait for lost travelers.
There were the sounds of three men breathing in the store.
Two have fallen asleep and one is still awake.
The store is filled with a variety of tools and parts, some of which are even old items that are rarely seen on the market.
The man who was awake had his back to the door and was busy with something with his head down. Occasionally, the sound of metal colliding could be heard.
The air was filled with the smell of engine oil and gasoline.
The door of the shop was half open, with dim light coming from inside.
At this moment, you know it even if you think about it with your butt.
In such a remote location, any unanticipated human activity requires vigilance.
If the price here is darker.
There is a high probability that it is better to accept it. After all, this is no man's land, and it is already good to be able to find the services you need here.
and……
Even if the people in this auto repair shop don't deliberately harm others, they are people who cannot be easily provoked.
After all, for most people.
Not only is it sparsely populated, but the phone signal is not very good.
If something happens here, it will cause heaven and earth to become inoperable.
But Chen Yun.
But he couldn't help but walked forward curiously.
Not even a trace of hesitation.
