…
About a few hours ago, another world.
July 3, 2004, on the outskirts of a small coastal town, on the No. 10 elevated road.
Leaning against a pillar of the viaduct, Shi Yiguang looked down at the thatch mat on the ground that was quickly getting wet with some distress, then turned to look at the continuous rain curtain not far away, and couldn't help but sigh.
She had just woken up from a century-long dream and found herself in a new dream. She quickly began to adapt to the environment here, observing and collecting various information.
As we all know, in a strange and lawless place, beauty is more likely to bring danger. Therefore, Shi Yiguang immediately put on a certain disguise and sneaked around to look around. He quickly confirmed that there was something quite special here.
developed human society.
Logically speaking, although most of the memory of the last long dream has faded, she can still quickly integrate into the local society by relying on her past training and preparation, and use some small means of the exercises she has learned to solve these problems.
.
But in fact, Shi Yiguang encountered an unexpected obstacle: a language barrier and an inability to communicate.
After thousands of years of changes, the differences between modern Mandarin and pre-Qin dialect have become astonishing. Only a few vocabulary words match up. The difference between simplified characters and bird seal script is also difficult to find the corresponding characters, and it takes a long time.
adapt.
When she confidently approached the first old man who seemed to be in a hurry but was quite enthusiastic according to the script, the two parties used their hands and feet together like ducks for a long time, and the more they "chatted", the more awkward they became.
, so that the old man looked like he wanted to call the police and ask if any female idiot had run away from home.
Knowing that learning the local dialect would take a long time in secret, and being shocked by the productivity and strange and wonderful lifestyle here, Shi Yiguang quickly made the decision to hide in the suburbs for the time being.
This viaduct, which was erected in the wilderness outside the city and was enough to protect her from wind and rain, was not only the place where she first fell asleep, but also the temporary residence she chose: she collected some wood and gradually built a small wooden house based on solid stone pillars.
.
The viaduct deck is more than ten meters wide, and the foundations of the bridge piers are higher than the surrounding areas. In theory, unless it encounters a very rare heavy rainstorm, it should not be much affected, and it can barely allow people to live safely.
As for food, catching some fish and shrimps by the nearby water, as well as hunting some small animals such as voles and hares, is not a problem.
With this idea in mind, Shi Yiguang stayed here for two or three days while inquiring about information. Shi Yiguang discovered that his luck had been really bad recently.
This afternoon, it was still a sunny day, but in the blink of an eye, lead-colored clouds had pushed in from the southeast, the sky quickly turned dark, followed by a thunderstorm, and there was a downpour that was rare to see in several years.
heavy rain.
It didn't take long for the overly humid water vapor to soak into her carefully woven thatched sleeping mat, the firewood piled on the earth platform, and even the goose-yellow clothes woven from silk on her body were covered with tiny drops of water.
The color becomes darker due to reflection.
Through the rain curtain at the edge of the viaduct, I looked further into the distance. About fifty meters away, I couldn't see clearly in the vast expanse of white. The raindrops were so dense that they seemed to smash into each other in the air, and they were all covered in water droplets when they hit the ground.
The sky was dark, and lightning occasionally illuminated the scaly dark clouds, as if there was a giant dragon crossing there.
The elevated road above the head extends straight into the distance, like a huge spear thrown by the gods, quietly cutting off the world inside and outside.
The whole world is filled with the sound of wind, rain and swaying trees.
At a certain moment that Shi Yiguang failed to notice, on the edge of the city more than ten miles away, there was a road sign covered by willow branches. The words "Highway 10" on it were slightly distorted, and then turned into "0" that should not exist in theory.
"Highway".
Then, in the next moment, her heart was beating fast, and her whole body seemed to be stimulated by some kind of stimulation. She stared nervously at the distant wilderness, trying to concentrate and amplify her vision and hearing.
For some reason, there was a very strange silence between heaven and earth. Shi Yiguang could still hear the sound of wind and rain and his own heartbeat, but the background sound of the world suddenly disappeared. It was no longer noisy, and it was so quiet that it seemed to last forever.
The endless night.
So, after she quickly noticed this change, she felt an extremely strong sense of being out of place. She couldn't help but become wary and suspected that she had fallen into some kind of dangerous situation.
In Shi Yiguang's senses, something terrible was coming, carrying an extremely strong aura of death, approaching even more, causing the heaven and earth to vaguely change color.
The area around the No. 10 Elevated Road is surrounded by large areas of abandoned farmland, and further away are rapeseed fields that have long been harvested. The owners of some of the fields took advantage of their free time to plant a few more green onions.
However, at this moment, she found that within her field of vision, the vegetation began to wither quickly, turning from green to gray-yellow, and then to deathly black!
A certain strong man in the "Six Qi" realm in this world has opened up a field related to death, covering an area of ​​at least dozens of miles? If you want to target a little guy like me with a shallow cultivation level, it shouldn't be necessary.
Isn’t it such a big effort?
This sudden heavy rain, which seems to be abnormal in the movement of the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, is actually the result of this person mobilizing and gathering a large amount of vitality? Or is it the cover required by the other party to prevent the abnormal phenomena of heaven and earth from being exposed?
Thinking that in the past few days, only two or three new practitioners have been found in densely populated urban areas, it was estimated that there should be very few powerful beings of this level in this world. Shi Yiguang couldn't help but secretly sigh that it was unlucky, how could he encounter this?
to avoid such an unnecessary disaster.
What's really bad is that, whether it's because she can't adapt to the environment here, or for other reasons, the several protective magic weapons she carries with her can't be activated normally. Only silk clothes, mysterious jade hairpins and other clothing items can be activated.
For use, this is extremely dangerous.
Silently retreating to the cabin, she picked up a few simple weapons that she had collected materials nearby during this period. The girl looked at the viaduct that had inexplicably curved into a ribbon shape, took a deep breath, and forced her mind back to calm.
, and prepared for battle.
Because on the high slope in the distance and in the nearby water, twisted black shadows that seemed to be between reality and illusion suddenly stood up. At first, they looked like human-shaped ink marks, but gradually
As time goes by, it gradually condenses into a real entity.
These shadow-like monsters wear dark cloaks, carry rusty weapons, and wear identical skull masks and silver masks. The hands holding the weapons are dry and pale, with sharp claws.
The golden pupils lit up one after another, and the pupils were like flickering flames.
Towards the direction of the viaduct coming from the city, countless black shadows rush down the high slopes, covering the mountains and plains, like rolling black tides, making people think of demons pouring out from the depths of hell.
They don't seem to be completely dead, but they are not living people either, but are trapped between life and death by some mysterious force.
…
An army composed entirely of dead practitioners? The total number is tens of thousands, but there seems to be no discipline, and there are no formations or military weapons. Can it really be used in high-level battles?
Noticing that most of the black figures ignored him hiding in the shadow area of ​​the viaduct pillars, Shi Yiguang secretly breathed a sigh of relief, thoughtfully, but soon discovered that a considerable number of black figures seemed to be in order to ambush the powerful enemy in advance.
Have different actions.
Except for some of the black shadows, which had membrane wings supported by thin bones spread out behind them, floating in the storm and flying directly to the viaduct, most of the black shadows had no ability to fly and swarmed towards the pillars.
, I want to climb up from here.
There were more than a hundred black shadow monsters that looked at the pillar where Shi Yiguang was standing. Relying on some kind of keen perception, several monsters soon noticed the weak girl hiding among several wooden boards and started crying like a baby.
made a strange noise and suddenly launched an attack.
While two ancient Egyptian sickle-shaped swords hooked the edge of the wooden board and forced it open, several pale palms and the curled blade of an Indian whip sword had already broken into this narrow space, but they did not hit the valuable target.
Target.
A piece of broken iron sheet, obviously the product of a car accident, with a license plate number written on it, was severely cut into the gap between the fingers of one of the palms under Shi Yiguang's rapid swing, causing the owner of the hand to shrink back in pain, and also
The block blocked the sharp claws protruding from the other two pale hands.
With a hiss, the thin and flexible whip sword was thrown heavily on her left shoulder, but unexpectedly it bounced off and slipped off. On the way back to its curved state, it accidentally scraped off one of the shadow monsters.
The flesh and blood spattered out a ball of dark black blood.
Relying on the clothes that were comparable to a piece of armor, Shi Yiguang withstood the blow of the whip blade. Shi Yiguang did not use any luck to relieve the pain. Instead, he immediately jumped up and kicked out with both feet, kicking the two black figures who had not yet stood still to the seventh level.
Eight meters away, he dodged the slashes and thrusts of two sickle-shaped swords and a spear.
At the same time, the black blood from the injured shadow monster just now fell on the wooden board that had been broken into several pieces by the fighting in the blink of an eye, and white smoke curled up like concentrated acid.
Seeing that their companions failed to attack, the two monsters who were climbing and already hanging upside down on the edge of the bridge, ready to climb up, cried out in incomprehensible words, then swooped down suddenly, and ejected like snakes.
out.
A pitch-black raven was originally circling and flying nearby, but after seeing this scene, it immediately opened its golden crow's eyes, flapped its wings and flew over quickly, hoping to use it while the girl was in the air with nothing to rely on.
The beak was strong enough to penetrate fine steel and peck open the back of the opponent's head.
On the top of the damaged wooden roof below, there were six or seven additional black shadows waiting for the girl to fall. Their pale palms waved horizontally, and their fingertips tore the air, forming a murderous net, aiming to welcome the death of the other party.
.
This is a powerful force that can tear apart tigers and leopards, and tear apart armor. Once it falls on a person, even if he is protected by the Heavenly Silkworm Clothes, it will inevitably penetrate the body and cause serious damage.
There are powerful enemies in the sky and on the earth.
Faced with this desperate scene, Shi Yiguang did not panic. She suddenly flipped her left and right hands, and two small and simple hand crossbows appeared. In the blink of an eye, she shot dozens of heads.
Arrows made of rusty iron.
The raven, which was preparing for a sneak attack and launched a fatal blow, was the closest and was the first target to be shot. The arrow penetrated its golden eyes on the spot, causing it to fly backwards and hit the viaduct pillar first.
To be continued...
