Chapter 428 Snow Demon
Liang Xin'an instantly felt that her scalp was numb. Just as she raised her hand to pull the trigger of the crossbow, she suddenly felt a pain in her cheek, and then she suddenly woke up and turned around.
Then he froze.
Because he saw Jing Rou standing in front of him with an angry face.
"Liang Xin'an, why are you so crazy? You shoot crossbows randomly while you are sleeping. Do you want to fucking kill me?"
Then there was a lot of swear words.
Although she was scolded so badly, Liang Xin'an was not angry but happy at this time.
Because this is the Senior Brother Jing in his impression!
Even so, Liang Xin'an still asked very vigilantly: "Senior Brother Jing, what is my nickname?"
"Your nickname is XX, why don't you have a nickname!" Jing Rou said angrily.
Liang Xin'an breathed a sigh of relief.
It's certain, this is Senior Brother Jing.
Because if this were in my dream, I wouldn't be able to say such dirty words anyway.
Then he smiled bitterly with relief and said, "Senior Brother Jing, you have no idea what just happened."
"What happened?" Jing Rou asked with disdain.
Liang Xin'an then recounted the nightmare she had just had.
Jing Rou's expression gradually became serious.
Because this dream is indeed too weird, especially for a warrior of Liang Xin'an's level, it is almost impossible to happen.
"Actually, I was a little sleepy just now. Fortunately, I went out to check on the lighting truck. I felt much better when the cold wind blew." Jing Rou said.
"So what kind of cunning trick is this?" Liang Xin'an couldn't help but ask.
"Who knows, but the wind and snow outside have not stopped at all. If the situation continues, we will probably be trapped here for a while."
The two fell into silence again.
None of this is good news.
First of all, the strange dream that Liang Xin'an suffered was almost unexplainable, and secondly, the wind and snow outside showed no signs of stopping.
If this happens for the next few days and nights, let alone looking for any caravans, their lives may not be saved.
"Damn it, these grandsons know how to use these ghostly methods. If they have the ability to fight with real swords and guns!" Jing Rou cursed, then came to the fire and turned down the fire slightly.
Because no one knows how long this snowstorm will last, every piece of fuel is very precious and cannot be wasted.
Liang Xin'an was naturally not idle either. She got up and went outside the tent. Sure enough, she saw that the snow had not weakened, but was getting heavier and heavier.
In just a short time, at least half a foot of snow was accumulated on the ground.
Liang Xin'an suddenly felt that she and the small tent behind her were like a small boat sailing on the white ocean, and the dim light truck was the navigation light on the ship.
He exhaled slowly, and then began to clear the snow from the lighting truck, preparing to push it into the tent.
But just as he was busy with his head down, he suddenly saw a blurry projection appearing on the light-transmitting cover made of natural crystal.
This projection resembled the outline of a human being, and it was standing right behind him, seeming to be watching him eagerly.
Liang Xin'an was startled and immediately looked back, only to see no shadow behind her except the flying snowflakes.
Looking back at the light cover again, it was also empty.
But Liang Xin'an was extremely sure that she was definitely not dazzled just now, but she saw a group of figures very clearly.
But he didn't say anything, but pretended to be nonchalant, cleared all the snow off the lighting truck, and then pushed it into the tent.
"Senior Brother Jing, come and help me!" Liang Xin'an shouted.
Jing Rou didn't doubt his presence and came over to help Liang Xin'an push the cart.
But at this moment, Liang Xin'an lowered her head and told him what she had just encountered.
After hearing this, Jing Rou glanced outside the tent calmly, and then nodded slightly to indicate that she understood.
With the help of this lighting truck, the tent was not only much brighter, but the temperature also rose a little.
In fact, if the light-transmitting cover is opened, the temperature will be higher.
But in that case, the tent would be set on fire soon, so Liang Xinan and the others did not touch it.
The two of them sat at the entrance of the tent, one on the left and the other on the right. They both held weapons in their hands and communicated silently with each other's eyes.
The cold wind howled outside, and the fluttering tarpaulins undulated like ocean waves.
Although Liang Xin'an had packed all the corners with snow, cold wind still kept coming in from the gaps.
The temperature in the tent was getting lower, but the two of them did not move.
Because just now, the two of them heard an unusual movement from the howling wind.
It was like something was crouching outside the tent and peering.
That kind of malicious prying can still be clearly felt even through a layer of tarpaulin.
The two continued to wait.
The fire in the fire gradually extinguished, and the temperature in the tent was only maintained by the light from the lighting truck.
But the two still didn't move.
Because they understand that this has become a competition of endurance at this moment.
Whoever loses his composure first is likely to lose.
I don't know how long it took, but Liang Xin'an felt that her face was almost numb from the cold.
At this moment, a strange scream suddenly came from outside.
The sound was just like a woman's cry, plaintive and sorrowful, especially on this snowy night, it made people's hair stand on end.
Liang Xin'an and Jing Rou originally wanted to take action as soon as something happened.
But as soon as the sound entered their ears, the two of them felt their whole bodies stiffen and their brains went blank.
Then blood flowed from the mouths and noses of both men, which showed how strange and powerful this wave of attacks was.
But the Guanzong was not cowardly.
Especially the two people in the tent at the moment, one is the senior brother of the Thunder and Fire Department, and the other is the master of the Qi Technology Department.
So even though they were seriously injured this time, the two still tried their best and responded as quickly as possible.
Jing Rou raised her hand first and aimed a shot outside.
boom!
This shot was so powerful that it shattered the tarpaulin in front of him.
The wind and snow surged in, and what they saw next was something Liang Xinan and the others would never forget.
Amidst the snow and wind, a snowman-like monster with a pure white body suddenly appeared.
This monster is not tall, its whole body is blurry, and its outline cannot be clearly seen at all, except for its impressive eyes.
They were a pair of swollen toad eyes, filled with hatred and disgust.
But at this moment, it was looking at the gun in Jing Rou's hand with fear, as if it was frightened by the deafening shot just now.
Faced with such a monster, Jing Rou and Liang Xin'an immediately began to pull the trigger crazily without thinking.
In an instant, tongues of fire were spitting out and arrows were flying, all aimed directly at this monster.
But in the face of this violent attack, the monster did not retreat, but dodged at lightning speed.
Not only that, while dodging, it kept rushing forward.
Faced with such a scene, Jing Rou suddenly shouted: "Hold him first!"
After saying that, Jing Rou threw away the gun in her hand.
Liang Xin'an took it, then set it up and pulled the trigger with both hands at the same time.
Crossbow arrows and bullets intertwined, blocking all possible paths forward for this monster.
But even so, it still couldn't stop it from rushing forward.
An attack that would kill an ordinary person would not have much effect on this monster.
At least Liang Xin'an discovered more than once that whenever a bullet or crossbow arrow hits this monster, at most it will bring out a white mist from behind. This small injury is nothing to it.
"Are you okay?" Liang Xin'an didn't even dare to turn her head, focusing on dealing with this monster.
But the problem is that both the arrow magazine and the magazine have capacity limits.
If you keep shooting like this, it won't take long before the shot is empty, so Liang Xin'an urged anxiously.
But Jing Rou didn't panic at all.
He had just taken out a dark cannon barrel as thick as a fist from his bag and was quickly assembling it.
Soon, the main structure was installed, and then Jing Rou reached out and took out a cannonball and put it directly into it.
The moment he raised the loaded cannon to his shoulder, Liang Xin'an had finished firing the crossbow arrows and bullets in his hand.
The monster seemed to be aware of this, and it let out a strange cry that sounded like crying and laughing, and then pounced on it.
But as soon as it rushed into the air, Jing Rou had already taken aim, and then said with a ferocious smile: "Fuck you!"
With that said, he pulled the trigger.
boom!
There was a deafening sound, and Jing Rou was sent flying by the powerful recoil.
Liang Xin'an, who was relatively close, felt as if she had been hit hard by a stick on the back, and fell to the ground with a plop.
The power of such a huge sound is naturally amazing.
There was an explosion in the air, followed by snowflakes flying and smoke filling the air.
Liang Xin'an pouted several times before spitting out the dust in her mouth. When she looked back, she saw Jing Rou getting up from the ground with a grin on her face.
"Damn, there was too much gunpowder, it almost broke my shoulder." Jing Rou muttered.
Liang Xin'an felt relieved and looked up again, only to see that after the smoke cleared, there was still the shadow of the monster.
"Okay, don't look for it anymore. Even a huge boulder the size of a house can't stop it with one shot, let alone a body of flesh and blood. Even if this monster is made of pure steel, it will have been blasted to smithereens long ago." Jing Rou said.
"What on earth is that thing?" Liang Xin'an asked after searching around and confirming that the monster had indeed been blown to pieces.
"Who knows, although the previous Wuwang Sea was also very dangerous, at least the creatures that appeared had traces to follow. But after the black ship appeared, even these creatures no longer behave according to common sense." Jing Rou Hate said.
At this moment, Liang Xin'an suddenly noticed something. When she looked up, she realized that the snow had stopped, and she couldn't help shouting in surprise.
"The snow has stopped!"
Jing Rou naturally discovered this, and not only did the snow stop, but the howling wind also died down.
"Let's go while the weather is calm now!"
Obviously they couldn't stay here any longer, so the two quickly packed their bags and then strode away pushing the lighting cart.
About an hour after they left, something began to move in the snow on the ground.
The squirming speed was very slow at first, and gradually, these things squirmed faster and faster, and began to gather together.
Then I saw these things piled up layer by layer, quickly forming a vague outline.
It was the monster that was smashed to pieces.
After its eyes formed, the monster raised its head and looked in the direction where Jing and Rou left, and then disappeared into the snow with a few leaps.
Jing Rou and Liang Xin'an were pushing the lighting truck hard in the snow.
Although it didn't snow for long, it was heavy.
As a result, there was twenty to thirty centimeters of snow on the ground.
Coupled with the lack of reference, the two could only stumble forward.
At this moment, Liang Xin'an suddenly looked back.
"What's wrong?" Jing Rou asked.
"It's nothing, maybe it's my misunderstanding!" Liang Xin'an said.
He didn't say that he suddenly felt like he was in a trance just now.
This feeling is similar to the feeling when I heard the strange sound like a woman crying in the tent before.
But it was obvious that the monster had been bombarded by the cannon in front of him, and there was no scum left!
Could there be an accomplice?
Liang Xin'an was a little worried.
But this was just a baseless guess after all. In order to prevent Senior Brother Jing from being as worried as himself, he chose to remain silent for the time being, but secretly stepped up his guard.
And just as the two of them were groping their way forward, in another place, a caravan was also caught in a dilemma where it could not move forward or retreat.
"Still haven't found anything?" the caravan manager asked in a deep voice.
"No, the heavy snow has covered up all traces. We can't find the way now." said the leader of the caravan's guard.
"How long can we keep going?" The old shopkeeper, who was nearly fifty years old and even his beard was a little gray, asked again.
The person who answered this time was the caravan’s accountant. He made quick calculations for a while, and then said: “Based on the supplies we have, it won’t be a problem to last for a month or so.”
"But the biggest problem now is that many people are on the verge of mental collapse, and someone went crazy in their sleep last night."
The old shopkeeper was silent.
In recent days, this kind of sudden madness in sleep has suddenly become more frequent.
But no matter how much I investigated, no other clues were found.
Even the experienced guard leader admitted that this was a situation he had never encountered before.
"Strengthen patrols and let everyone take turns sleeping. If you find someone making any strange movements in their sleep, wake them up immediately!"
"yes!"
The gentleman took the order and left.
At this time, the guard commander said: "Shopkeeper, you go and have a rest, I will keep watch for you."
The man shook his head, "No need. I'm afraid that if I fall asleep, I will be like those people. In that case, the caravan will be completely destroyed."
As the soul of the entire caravan, once the shopkeeper falls, the remaining people are probably not far from collapse.
"But it's okay for you to stay up like this all the time!"
I had something to do today and didn't come back until tonight. I updated a chapter in a hurry. Sorry!
