In the past two months, Chu Yunsheng has thought very clearly that the limitations of the space passage prevent him from entering the insect world smoothly for the time being. Instead of sitting and waiting for the passage to be completely stable, it is better to find the things left by the ancient book predecessor as soon as possible. Maybe the predecessor or Is there any secret method that can cover the sea and pass through unstabilized passages?
After eating the insect broth stewed by Edgar, a little salt made the two of them look a little more energetic.
Using boiled well water, Chu Yunsheng and Edgar took turns taking a bath. For nearly two months, their bodies almost stunk. However, their noses gradually adapted to the odor and could no longer feel it.
Edgar had always regretted not being able to see Chu Yunsheng's true face. Even after taking a shower, Chu Yunsheng still wore his armor and cloak.
"Go south. There is a city here. We can find a car. If we are lucky, we can collect some gasoline from abandoned vehicles and then go all the way west." Chu Yunsheng pointed at the map and told Ed Jia said.
"Mr. Lennon, how did you know our location?" Edgar asked puzzledly. He only went upstairs once and determined their specific location when he came down.
"The phone area code here shows our location. We are already some distance away from Jinling City. The insects should not be chasing us. Prepare a water source. We will set off immediately after there is a faint light tomorrow!" Chu Yunsheng folded the map. , thinking of Edgar, a foreigner, who had no knowledge of domestic geography, and took a moment to explain.
"Mr. Lennon, where are we going all the way to the west? Is there a key base like Jinling City in the west?" Edgar picked up the wood chips in the fire and asked worriedly.
"I don't know. Besides, I'm going west, not us. If we encounter a gathering point of humans on the way, you don't have to continue taking risks with me. You can just stay there." Chu Yunsheng shrank his body towards the wall, half He said while squinting his glasses so that he could see the world around him the next day. There is still a period of time to ensure enough sleep so that you can have better energy to face various emergencies that you may encounter.
"Thank you, Mr. Lennon. I don't know how to thank you for your help to me..." Edgar said sincerely, paused, and said hesitantly: "Mr. Lennon, I was behind this house just now. , a strange "plant" was discovered."
"What plant?" Chu Yunsheng asked alertly. The experience in the City of Mist told him that whenever new plants appear, along the food chain, new monsters will inevitably appear.
"This is difficult to explain. You'd better go and see it yourself." Edgar said with a strange expression on his face. Not long ago, Chu Yunsheng told Edgar that the things he was looking for were not what he cared about. Thinking he had missed something, Edgar went to the back of the house to search, and was shocked to find a plant he had never seen before.
Edgar held a torch. Chu Yunsheng followed him, holding the dark energy gun tightly in his hand. When it comes to the knowledge of the Sunshine Age, Chu Yunsheng may not be as good as Edgar, but the things of the Dark Ages, Chu Yunsheng has seen better than Edgar. Edgar is much more, he can smell danger!
"That's it, Mr. Lennon!" Edgar said, shaking the torch.
"Mushroom? Super mushroom?" Chu Yunsheng carefully poked the umbrella-shaped plant with the muzzle of his gun, his index finger tightly clasping the trigger, ready to shoot at any time.
"Judging from its shape, it should be a spore plant, belonging to the fungus, but each body seems to be a bit too big, at least. At least one meter high." Edgar compared this super large mushroom with his own height. After a moment, he said very professionally.
"Do you think this is a change from the original plants on the earth, or is it as foreign as an insect?" Chu Yunsheng frowned and said. Generally, foreign things must be accompanied by ferocious monsters upstream of the food chain, just like those in the fog. Like a city.
"Mr. Lennon. Strictly speaking, I am just a zoologist and cannot make strict judgments. There was a female plant expert in the team we worked with two months ago. Unfortunately, before you entered the room, After she successfully resisted Yang Dong's rape, you know, her trachea was bitten off by a rat after she fell into coma..." Edgar said affectionately.
"If you think about it again, aren't you all called biological experts? Aren't animals and plants all living things?" When it comes to biological knowledge in the Sunshine Age, Chu Yunsheng indeed knows very little.
He also knew about the female researcher Edgar was talking about. At that time, her corpse's nerves beat like a fire, which made Chu Yunsheng think she was still alive, which made him take back the steps he had taken to check the body. A corpse, only to eventually find Edgar in the corner.
From another perspective, Edgar's life was actually saved by the body of the dead female researcher. If Chu Yunsheng had stepped out of the building and Edgar was alone, sooner or later he would undoubtedly die.
"Gray surface, yellow spots... Mr. Lennon, why don't we go out and see if there are any such plants outside?" Edgar asked cautiously, unable to make any strong judgment.
"No, you can't see anything now. It's very dangerous. Let's go inside first." Chu Yunsheng flatly refused. It would be too risky to rush out when the surroundings were pitch black and unknown plants were found.
"Put out the torches too!" After entering the house and closing all the doors, Chu Yunsheng was still worried. He used the remaining soup to extinguish the fire, and pointed at the torch in Edgar's hand and said hurriedly. , he was very worried that the fire in the house was on for half the night, and maybe some monster had discovered the two of them.
"Mr. Lennon?" The surroundings suddenly fell into darkness, and the rich atmosphere of terror, coupled with the high level of alert exuded by Chu Yunsheng, made the timid Edgar tremble.
"Shh...! Quietly, come here and lean against the corner with me. We will take turns keeping vigil and pay attention to what's going on around us." Chu Yunsheng pulled Edgar and said in a low voice.
"By the way, Mr. Lennon, if it is a spore fungus plant on the earth, it is generally divided into two types: parasitic and saprophytic. Unless there are a lot of rotting corpses here, otherwise..." Edgar couldn't help but tremble when he mentioned the corpses. A tremor!
"Do you still remember the surrounding situation when we landed from the sky?" Chu Yunsheng suddenly remembered that darkness had enveloped the earth at that time, and the two of them entered the building almost relying on the last glimmer of light.
"No, it was too dark at the time to see clearly." Edgar thought for a moment and shook his head.
"Forget it, let's wait until tomorrow. You go to bed first, and I'll stay silent for a while." Chu Yunsheng wanted to look at his watch, but couldn't see anything, so he had to give up, put the dark energy gun on his chest, and talked with Ai Degas leaned close to each other, raised his ears, and listened quietly to what was going on around him.
Night, quietly.
There was not a trace of sound. As time passed, Chu Yunsheng only felt that the internal ringing in his ears was getting clearer and noisier.
Edgar was very nervous at the beginning and couldn't fall asleep no matter what. After nearly an hour, he couldn't hold it any longer physically and fell asleep in a daze after not having rest for a long time.
In order to support his sobriety, Chu Yunsheng practiced Fusion Body while listening to the movement, and time passed bit by bit in the silent world.
…
Suddenly, Chu Yunsheng raised his head suddenly. He couldn't hold on anymore and took a nap without saying a word. At this moment, any negligence could be fatal!
His heart was beating hard. The surroundings were too dark and quiet. It was like being locked up alone. It could drive people crazy. If he hadn't lived in the dark age for a long time, he wouldn't have been able to survive it.
At this time, his ears sensitively caught a trace of movement. It was weak and small, but it still could not escape Chu Yunsheng's keen hearing.
He picked up the dark energy gun and held the beast-sealing talisman that sealed the green beetle in his hand, ready to release it at any time to assist in the battle, although he didn't know what was behind the darkness.
Gradually, the movement outside the kitchen became more and more obvious and clear. Chu Yunsheng patted Edgar beside him slightly in fear.
Edgar, who was awakened from his dream, was about to speak out when Chu Yunsheng touched his mouth and covered it tightly.
"Don't make a sound, it's me, something is coming!" Chu Yunsheng said extremely weakly in Edgar's ear.
Edgar's throat squirmed, his chest heaved violently, his eyes widened in horror, and he looked around blankly.
After a while, Chu Yunsheng felt that he had calmed down. He slowly released the hand covering him, held his dark energy gun again, and pointed it at the kitchen window.
No matter what was outside, Chu Yunsheng just hoped that it was passing by. It would be easy to suffer a loss if he rashly launched a battle when the enemy and we were unknown.
What could it be?
Chu Yunsheng filtered the various monsters he had seen in his mind like rewinding a movie...
Suddenly, a pair of yellow eyes appeared at the emission window, moved slowly, and made a weird "laughter": Huh-huh-yah-yah!
What the hell?
Chu Yunsheng seemed to have never seen him before.
Edgar was frightened out of his wits by the ghostly cry.
Just as Chu Yunsheng was about to shoot, he saw a burst of fire outside the window, and there were faint human screams!
Is anyone alive?
As soon as this thought occurred to him, he clearly saw the ghost thing outside the window with the help of the firelight. It turned out to be a floating human head.
To be precise, it was not floating, but two pairs of gray wings seemed to grow on the ears, flapping up and down. The first movement he heard was probably its vibration.
What is this? Even Chu Yunsheng, who had seen countless monsters, couldn't help but be stunned. Is it a human or a ghost?
Whoosh!
A flaming arrow came at the sound, hitting the winged head in the middle. Under the action of inertia, it smashed through the glass, and the head rolled to the feet of Chu Yunsheng and Edson.
Tsk...tsk...
Yellow smoke erupted from the area where the arrow hit the "head", and its face twisted in horror. It bounced a few times on the ground, collapsed, and turned into a pile of "yellow water", revealing a smooth and wriggling soft-bodied short worm like a leech. , desperately crawling towards Chu Yunsheng and Edgar.
"Let's go outside and take a look!" Chu Yunsheng, wearing a battle armor, directly crushed this weird and disgusting insect to death, and pulled Edgar up and said.
