0945. Double Moon·Blood Moon

The adults in the village fought over each other, but in the end Brother Feng insisted on choosing only fifteen qualified people. The others were pushed back by this man without question.

There are less than twenty days left before the cold season, so I have decided to go out of the safe area to find food, and I have to set off quickly.

After packing up, preparing carts, packed luggage, dry food, and various armors and weapons, fifteen "fully armed" villagers came to the village to say goodbye to their relatives.

Many women and children cried at this time.

"Dad, I'm waiting for you to come back. You must come back."

"My baby, you have to be careful. You must not be careless. You must listen to your Uncle Feng."

"Old Zheng, your son is only two and a half years old. No matter what happens, you have to crawl back. Your son is waiting for you to come back and teach him martial arts."

It's like a separation between life and death.

In fact, it is indeed a life-and-death farewell.

No one knows how many of the fifteen people who walked out will come back. Maybe none of them will come back. This kind of thing has happened in Dongxing Village before.

The fifteen warriors who went on the expedition, under the gaze of their relatives, danced an ancient war dance at the end of the village, waved their weapons, beat their chests, and roared with roars. This is a legend. In this world, the war dance is performed by human warriors when they go to war. Legend has it that even when the army goes to the front line, the soldiers will dance such a war dance, which symbolizes the determination to conquer everything, move forward and never back down.

After the war dance was over and Brother Feng and others were preparing to leave the village, Li Mu stepped forward.

"Second brother, let me go with you."

Everyone's eyes suddenly fell on Li Mu.

Because Li Mu did not show off his skills on weekdays and worked in the fields like an ordinary person, many people regarded this chosen son who had only grown from the longevity tree for less than two months as a caretaker and felt that Li Mu was powerful. , maybe not even as good as many elderly people in the village.

"How can this be done? You are the chosen one, destined to be an officer in the future, but now, your memory and strength have not been restored, and you absolutely cannot go out on adventures with us." Brother Feng refused directly.

Li Mu said: "Actually, my strength has recovered a bit." As he said that, he sent out a ray of sword light, and a rock as tall as a person outside the village was instantly cut into stone chips by the sword light.

"Wow, that's amazing." Xiao Xingyan immediately clapped her hands and cheered.

The villagers suddenly looked at Li Mu with admiration.

As expected of the chosen one, he has been keeping quiet these days. Is his strength already so high?

The attack just now seemed to be almost the same as Brother Feng, one of the three top masters in the village.

"Yes, it can barely be regarded as the insect realm." Brother Feng nodded, shook his head, and said: "But it's still not possible. With such strength, there is still danger in the wilderness. You are the chosen one with unlimited potential. In order to be certain He will become an officer and has a distinguished status. He is the hope for the future of our human race. We must not take risks here."

Li Mu said quickly: "As long as I be careful, there will be no problem. Moreover, I am good at an escape technique and am very fast." As he said that, his figure swayed on the spot, turned into ten afterimages, and appeared in an instant. A hundred meters away, and then back again.

What a speed!

Everyone was shocked.

Under Li Mu's repeated insistence, Brother Feng and others discussed with the village chief and finally reluctantly agreed to Li Mu's request.

"Thank you Brother Mu, but once you enter the wilderness, you must obey my arrangements and never act alone. Do you understand?" Brother Feng said seriously: "Otherwise, I will send someone to force you back to the village. inside."

Li Mu nodded repeatedly and said, "No problem."

Brother Feng breathed a sigh of relief.

Everyone set off together.

Out of the village in an instant.

After a moment of burning incense, when I looked back, I could only see the more than 20-meter-high longevity tree in the distance, standing like a green coordinate in the vast wilderness.

This is the first time Li Mu has left the village.

The world outside is deserted.

There is a demonic and dangerous atmosphere boiling on the earth.

Most of the land is like scorched earth, barren of grass and covered with ravines, as if a nuclear explosion had occurred, destroying everything. Going further, you can see a thorny plant with black branches. Stem and woody spines, basically no leaves.

"This is a black wind thorn, it has no edible value." Brother Feng introduced it to Li Mu.

They have extensive experience in finding food and hunting in the wild.

Li Mu has been following the crowd quietly.

Throughout the afternoon, everyone walked together for about fifty kilometers.

The vegetation on the ground has finally become richer.

The leaves and roots of some plants are edible and are picked, dug out and preserved.

Time flies.

Night falls.

The team found a temporary shelter to rest.

The night in the wilderness is ten times scarier than the day. In the wilderness where there is only the sound of wind during the day, the sound of roaring wild beasts can be heard at night. Various light groups like will-o'-the-wisps can be seen floating around in the distance. Even Li Mu felt a panic. A terrifying feeling of panic.

Everyone in the Dongxing Village team was smeared with a layer of black mud made from the leaves of the immortal tree to cover up their human aura. At the same time, they also used the fetal breath method to restrain their aura, making themselves look like a dead person. The food is the same, so as not to attract the attention of wild beasts and monsters, and not to dare to light a fire. When hungry, just eat some dry food that you carry with you.

Li Mu felt the breath of the wilderness for the first time, and this made him understand one thing.

Inside the village and outside the village, it turns out that they are two completely different worlds.

The wilderness is the real realm of chaos.

In the wilderness, there is no strange breath energy field like the Immortal Tree, and the perception of the power of the laws of this world is clearer. Perhaps it is because the vitality of heaven and earth is dozens of times that of the earth, and the laws here are also different from those on the earth. To give a simple example For example, if the earth's environment has twice the gravity, then the environment of this world has more than ten times the gravity.

In this world, the destructive power and magical power of the strong against the environment are limited.

Therefore, people like Brother Rufeng with insect realm cultivation are only one of the three strong men in a small village in this world. From the perspective of the entire human army system, they can only be regarded as weak. The inner strength is similar to that of the Insect Realm in the Galaxy, but it cannot be like the Insect Realm in the Galaxy. It can leap thousands of miles in a single thought - let alone thousands of miles. In fact, it is not even possible to fly on land, and can only walk. .

Li Mu felt the breath of the wilderness and constantly adjusted the golden talisman power in his body, striving to form the greatest fit with the laws of this world in the fastest time.

At the same time, he is extremely interested in the ‘monsters’ that Brother Feng and others call him.

Judging from the observations in the past few days, the monster seems to be a kind of spiritual existence, like a ghost, but more terrifying than a ghost. At night, it will appear and wander in the wilderness, devouring the flesh and blood of its own kind and all kinds of creatures. , keep getting stronger.

Do monsters have souls and consciousness?

Brother Feng and others didn't know, and Li Mu didn't figure it out either.

He just vaguely felt that if he looked for Wang Shiyu's soul, it would definitely be related to these so-called monsters.

The next two or three days were uneventful.

Brother Feng and others were surprised to find that this time their luck was surprisingly good. They didn't encounter many ferocious beasts or powerful monsters along the way. They successfully collected some edible weeds and berries. , and surprisingly encountered the corpses of dozens of wild beasts that died together in a fight, even saving on hunting.

"If this continues, in about five days, we will be able to collect enough food and we can return early."

"Haha, my luck is really good this time."

"Maybe even God is helping us."

The team members are very excited.

Even an experienced captain like Brother Feng could not conceal his excitement.

When I went out to search for food and hunt in the past, it was never so smooth. Could it be that the Immortal Tree was secretly blessing me?

Three more days passed.

It was still extremely smooth.

I didn't encounter any danger along the way.

"Huh, we finally collected enough food. It's too late to rush today. Let's stay here and rest for the night, and then return to the village early tomorrow morning." Brother Feng looked at the cart and the full luggage on everyone's body and said with satisfaction. .

Harvest.

Now, even if the millet harvest in the village fails, the whole village can survive the long cold season. By saving on rations, babies and the elderly and the weak will never starve to death.

Night falls.

As before, the team members smeared the black leaf mud of the longevity tree on their bodies and entered the fetal breath state. According to the rotation, Li Mu and Brother Feng were on guard duty in the first half of the night.

"Brother Mu, it seems that nothing will happen tonight. You can go and have a rest. I can watch it alone." Along the way, Brother Feng and all the people in the team took special care of Li Mu, except for Li Mu who was the chosen one. In addition to his son, it was also because Li Mu took the initiative to find food for the village. No matter how much he contributed, everyone was grateful for this kindness.

After all, Li Mu was not a native of the village, so he had no need to take risks.

"I'm fine, but Brother Feng, you are really tired these days, so why not go and rest first." Li Mu said.

Brother Feng smiled and said: "My body is strong enough to withstand it. My luck this time is incredible. I didn't encounter any danger. I really doubt whether the wilderness has degraded, haha..."

Li Mu smiled slightly.

Brother Feng said: "Brother Mu, you, the chosen one, must have brought us good luck, haha."

That's about right.

Li Mu laughed secretly in his heart.

Seeing that the first half of the night was over, everything was peaceful.

Brother Feng yawned and was about to wake up his sleeping companion to change the shift. Suddenly he felt that there seemed to be a dark red light flowing in front of his eyes. After being stunned for a moment, he suddenly realized something. With a look of horror on his face, he looked up Sky.

Li Mu was also looking at the sky at this time.

Strange changes appeared in the sky.

Originally there was just a silver moon hanging high in the sky, but I don't know when, after that silver moon, a black-red halo shadow slowly appeared, and then, Yiwan and this silver moon... The outer right outline of the moon is exactly the same as the blood moon. It slowly appears and peels off behind the silver moon, scattering endless blood-colored light, dyeing the wilderness with a layer of blood.

In the sky, a blood moon is gradually peeling off from the silver moon.

Two moons?

Li Mu was taken aback.

Coming to the world of chaos, I saw the moon more than once.

The moon in this world appears every night, and there is never a crescent moon. It is as perfect as a white jade plate. And I don’t know if it is because it is closer to the earth in ancient times, so the size of the moon is a hundred times the visual effect of the earth’s moon. There are Many times, Li Mu had the illusion that he could pluck the big jade plate from the sky just by raising his hand.

But two moons appeared at once, one of which was as bright as blood, which was very strange.

"Two moons are hanging high, and the blood moon appears... this... this..." Brother Feng's voice was hoarse, and his face was full of panic.

Li Mu looked at him.

I saw this iron-clad man trembling because of fear: "Disaster is coming... No, hurry up, Brother Mu, get everyone up quickly, we can't care about so much. Before the blood moon completely appears, we will rush on the road overnight." , return to the village.”

The roar of wild beasts resounded in the wilderness, seemingly going into a frenzy.

Further away, the figures of monsters flashing with strange will-o'-the-wisps suddenly seemed to be ignited, and their aura instantly became violent.

The most important thing was that at this moment, the rusty sword that Li Mu had been carrying on his back suddenly vibrated slightly.

Li Mu suddenly stood up.
