Chapter 156: The Old Beggar
[Monday, please recommend collection,. 】
But the strange thing is that the people in the city looked at Chen Sheng and the others with a kind of pity, a kind of expression as if they saw a dead person. There was no emotion at all. There is no welcoming or repelling move either. It was like seeing someone who was about to end up in the same fate as him.
Chen Sheng frowned slightly, and his heart sank secretly. The atmosphere in Lushan City is really too low, so low that it makes people feel depressing.
It's not normal, not normal at all.
There are many people in the city, but it looks lifeless.
Many people just sit still against the house. A look of despair on his face.
"Old man, ask me, why are the people in the city so lifeless, they don't even say a word, could it be that they have run out of food?" After Chen Sheng frowned slightly, he grabbed an old man who had just received a bowl of porridge from the big pot, and said asked.
"Young students, you shouldn't have entered the city. Once you enter this Lushan City, you don't even think about leaving alive."
The old man drank the porridge in the bowl, then looked at Chen Sheng and the people behind him, shook his head with a sigh and said: "You are not the first to enter the city, many people came from all over the city before. Lushan City. But after entering, you can’t go out again, did you not get attacked by ferocious beasts and monsters when you were four or five miles away from Lushan City?”
"How do you know?" A big man behind Chen Sheng asked in surprise.
Indeed, when they approached Lushan City, there were no beasts and monsters around to attack them. I thought it was their luck that they didn't encounter any beasts. It now appears that things may not be as they were imagined at all.
"That's because those beasts and monsters dare not approach Lushan City at all." The old man shook his head and said.
"Isn't that very good. The whole city should be very safe. How can everyone have such expressions." Some people said in puzzlement.
"You are thinking too simply. The reason why those monsters dare not approach is because there are even more terrifying monsters here. Let those monsters not dare to enter the area of Lushan City."
The old man showed fear on his face, and said in a trembling voice.
Chen Sheng's heart was shocked, and he immediately knew that their troubles might be bigger this time, and they might be even more dangerous than in the Xiongnu barracks before.
"What kind of monster is it? It's so powerful. I think there are hundreds of thousands of people in the city. Are you still afraid that the monster will fail?"
Someone said in disbelief.
The population in this Lushan city is not small at all.
Traces of people can be seen everywhere, but the faces of most people are full of despair.
Moreover, in the city, there are residents from the original Lushan City, and there are also people who gathered in the city later. People from different dynasties and generations have different clothes and dresses. You can even see many people with short hair and urban clothes. It seems that there is no difference with modern people. But the despair and fear emanating from them are equally strong. Even for changes in the outside world, changes in one's own situation, the ability to accept them is inferior to that of the ancients.
These are modern people from many fantasy worlds. Compared with the ancients, the number can only be regarded as a small part.
Even if many modern people ask themselves that their thinking is more advanced than that of the ancients, there is no use.
But here, there is no electricity, no mobile phones, no guns, even if you stand on the commanding heights of your mind, but in the troubled times, you are facing fierce beasts, monsters, and all kinds of dangers. You have eloquence, you have ambition. But if you don't have the strength, who are you going to fool.
In troubled times, only the strong can dominate everything and have prestige, only lip service. It's useless at all, compared to strength, the ancient strong men are simply crushed compared to those white-collar workers who are already in a sub-healthy state in the city.
Most of those people can't lift their shoulders or walk with their legs.
Especially in Lushan City, it was like a nightmare.
"Can't handle it, there's no way to fight it. It's a monster."
When the old man heard this, fear appeared in his eyes.
Thinking of that monster made me tremble all over. The face returned to a dead gray color.
Obviously, there was no hope of escape at all.
"Resign yourself to your fate. That monster has sealed off the entire Lushan City. Anyone who dares to escape will be eaten by that monster immediately. Moreover, every day, that monster will choose human beings from the city as blood food and devour them. He will die in one day. Dozens of people, but as long as they don’t escape, unless it’s the time for the monster to eat, otherwise, there is no danger, there is also a granary in the city, and the food in the granary can last for a long time as long as it is eaten sparingly.”
The old man shook his head and said, then walked towards an open space, leaned against the wall, and stared blankly at the sky.
When Chen Sheng and others heard this, their faces showed an inexplicable fear and disbelief.
No one thought that they were very happy to see a city before, thinking that they would have a place to settle down in the future, but now it seems that they have entered the gate of hell. I personally delivered it to the monster's mouth.
"I don't believe it. Those words are bullshit. I don't believe it. There are really some monsters that can trap the whole city. People can't leave. Are the monsters so smart? Are we safe and sound? Did you come in? I'm going out to see if the monster knows."
A commoner following Chen Sheng suddenly shouted.
He was already hunted and chased by ferocious beasts, so he was filled with anger, but now that he was in the city, he encountered such a situation and exploded all of a sudden. Burning with anger, without even thinking about it, he turned around and walked towards the previous city gate.
brush! !
As soon as he moved, the eyes of many people in the city could not help but focus on him.
Obviously, this move was unexpected. But there is another kind of happiness.
For some people, Chen Sheng and the others even felt a little happy about their arrival. After all, that monster only eats a dozen people a day, and if there are outsiders coming, they can share part of the chance and risk. Maybe it won't be my turn. Maybe I can live a few more days and wait until the turning point arrives.
The man was very fast, and he went out directly through the hole in the city gate, and came outside the city gate. He looked like he was about to leave Lushan City.
brush! !
But the moment that person left the gate of the city and set foot on the land outside, he saw a dark hole in the ground under the commoner without warning, and before he could even react in time, the person fell straight away. went in. There was only time to let out a shrill scream, and then, the original hole was blocked by soil again and disappeared. The ground is still the ground.
Soil is still soil.
But a person disappeared so easily.
It can be seen that the man can no longer live.
Hiss! !
When Chen Sheng and the others saw it, they couldn't help but gasp on the spot. This kind of scene was really terrifying. A big living person was just buried in the ground and disappeared. Life is so fragile.
"You see. Once you come in, don't even think about going out. If you go out, you will die. You don't even know what that monster is. Once you leave, the ground will suddenly crack, and you will be taken into the ground, and you will never return. coming."
The old man shook his head and sighed.
Not only outside the city, but inside the city is also unsafe. There may be a hole in the ground at any moment, swallowing people in. Anyway, more than a dozen people are pulled into the ground every day and die like this.
This situation has been going on for a long time.
"This is to raise the people in the city as pigs and sheep. When they are hungry, they will come and grab a few to eat, and guard them so that no one will leave. This city has been regarded by the dark monster as fish on the chopping board. "
Chen Sheng's face was serious.
He absolutely does not want to die in the mouth of the monster here, he must escape, or kill the monster, killing the monster may be very difficult, but he is absolutely unwilling to be trapped here waiting to die.
But Chen Sheng had no idea if he wanted to fight the fierce beast. Those monsters are too powerful, no matter in terms of strength or other, they are far superior to ordinary humans. If they fight head-on, he is sure that he will die.
"It would be great if there was a way to become stronger. There are fierce beasts in this world, so why don't there be those masters of cultivation?"
Chen Sheng smiled wryly to himself.
Just as Chen Sheng was meditating secretly, thinking of a strategy, suddenly, an old beggar in the city walked towards Chen Sheng. Looking at him, he grinned and showed his yellow teeth, and said with a smile: "This brother, it's amazing, it's really amazing."
"What do you mean by old man's words?"
Chen Sheng was awakened by the voice, looked at the old beggar in front of him, and asked with a frown. He was not driven away because he was a beggar.
"Look at the tall horns of the little brother, and the condensed luck, like a stick. Although it is dirty now, it has a lot to do. Once you gain power, you can't immediately turn into a dragon pillar, and you have a well-trained body. If you You can't fly to the sky immediately after you get the superior skills. As soon as you fly to the sky."
The old beggar looked at Chen Sheng with a smile and said.
"You old beggar, you went to the wrong person to beg for food. We don't even have a single grain of rice." Someone behind Chen Sheng scolded directly.
"Don't worry, listen to what this old man has to say." Chen Sheng stretched out his hand to stop him and said, "Although Sheng intends to do things for the people, this world is too difficult, and it is impossible to find superior exercises. How to cultivate and how to become stronger." The words were full of emotion.
"You don't need to worry about this little brother, you see. This "Hundred Tribulations of Immortality" can solve all your problems. With it, you can soar into the sky." Said the practice.
That kung fu method is full of precious light, and it is extraordinary at first glance.
"I have no money."
When Chen Sheng saw it, endless longing instantly arose in his heart. I can't wait to snatch the exercises from the old beggar. But he didn't do it.
"What treasure do you have on you, take it out and have a look."
The old beggar said with a smile.
His eyes looked at Chen Sheng's arms.
"I only have this bead. I don't know what it's for."
Chen Sheng took out a glazed bead that didn't seem to rise from his bosom. But there are two golden five-pointed stars on it.
