ALL NOVEL Chapter 734 The Sleeping Riverbed
Feng Gui was silent for a moment, and finally remembered a place that Jiang You once mentioned - "Tingfeng City".
"Lord City Lord, I would like to ask, what kind of place is Tingfeng City?" the old man asked curiously, "Is it as populous as Luoshi City?"
"No."
Jiang You shook his head. "There are no people in Tingfeng City, only monsters. All kinds of monsters that cannot be tolerated by the world. It is a city of monsters."
The bonfire crackled, and a sense of hope rose in Feng Gui's heart.
He hesitated and asked, "Is there anyone like Ah Shui there?"
"No."
Feng Gui was a little disappointed. As expected, someone like Ah Shui would attract attention wherever he went.
But then Jiang You continued, "Feng Miao...is not a monster."
Feng Gui: “…”
This is even more disappointing.
The appearance of the broken palm adds some vitality to the following journey.
After its whereabouts were exposed in broad daylight, that hand always lay openly on Jiang You's body.
He either stood on her shoulders, or held on to her protective suit, or sometimes even lay on her gas mask like a starfish.
Habits are terrible things.
Feng Gui never thought that one day he would be able to calmly accept a severed palm with several fingers standing on it walking back and forth above his head.
Jiang You didn’t know how this thing left Chenjia Village. None of the monsters in the village could leave, so why could this severed hand leave?
Moreover, she had no recollection of when this guy got into her backpack and hid in it without moving for so many days.
The journey was not smooth, but those strange and huge ants were indeed the only creatures the two saw in the fog.
Besides that, there is the weird wind.
It would pass through the sky from time to time, and the frequency of its appearance was completely irregular.
Jiang You often saw that the originally intact black dead trees were suddenly cut in half from a certain height.
However, this wind is not completely unpreventable. When it appears, it always comes with a sharp whistling sound, like the scream of strong wind squeezing through the narrow gaps in a building.
Every time he heard this sound in advance, Jiang You knew that the strange wind had appeared again.
Moreover, this strong wind only appears above three meters and rarely moves close to the ground.
This means that as long as they don't fly, the chance of being chopped into pieces by the strong wind is very small.
She temporarily called this wind with a strange cutting effect "Gangfeng".
The closer we got to Cedar Town, the more obviously the land and plants were charred, water sources dried up, life was extinct, and the remains of people and animals were everywhere.
The river valley that Feng Gui had mentioned was now only a deeply sunken, dry riverbed.
Jiang You saw countless extremely shriveled zombie corpses in the river, piled up like dried pickles.
Many people think that zombies do not need water, but in fact, they are wrong. Zombies are also a direction of evolution. They have just mutated and have not deviated from the category of biological organisms.
It needs food, water, and purification.
The river is filled with zombie corpses that look like pickled mustard greens. They must have come here in pursuit of water.
Jiang You stood on a high place, frowning as he looked at the piled up corpses in the river. Suddenly, he jumped on tiptoe and jumped down.
During this period of time, Feng Gui has become more familiar with her style of doing things and is no longer easily startled as he was at the beginning.
The one-eyed old man quietly watched the thin figure falling into the valley like a fallen leaf, stepping on the densely packed corpses.
The distance was too far and there was thick fog.
He couldn't see the details clearly, so he had to keep his eyes fixed on Jiang You's figure to ensure he didn't lose his target.
At this time, Jiang You, who was standing in the valley, did not look relaxed.
These zombies...are not dead...
She turned her wrist and a silver Miao Dao appeared in her hand.
The blade stabbed into an extremely shriveled head at his feet with a "pop" sound, and with a casual stir, a transparent, pebble-sized irregular crystal was picked out from the brain.
The crystal core mixed with black and green brain matter rolled to the side.
The zombie whose skull she opened had its eyes slightly opened a line at the moment the skull was pierced by the sword, and then closed weakly again as the crystal core was dug out.
The gloom in Jiang You's eyes sank to the bottom of his eyes. He looked forward along the valley. The entire valley was filled with zombies that stretched as far as the eye could see.
These zombies were piled up layer by layer, as thick as the silt in the riverbed.
They did not die, probably because in such an environment where they could not consume any water and energy, in order to maintain vitality for a long time, they chose to hibernate in a way that consumed the least physical energy.
She took a deep breath, pushed hard with her feet, and rushed up from bottom to top like an arrow, landing steadily next to Feng Gui.
"Let's go." She didn't say anything else, but just asked Feng Gui to continue leading the way.
She was wrong. She thought that the zombies would die directly in the poisonous fog like humans, so they migrated on a large scale.
But the fact is, zombies are more tenacious than humans.
If this poisonous fog is highly toxic to humans, it is a chronic poison to them.
The poisonous fog was also different from what she had imagined.
Jiang You looked up in the direction of Cedar Town, wondering in his heart.
Then, is this guy Zhuxie different from what she imagined?
