My baby is gone again

Chapter 106 Hunting out of the city, murderous intentions surge

Dream Market City.

"It's daylight now?"

"Lu Xuan" raised his head and looked at the sky.

He pinned his spirit on the wooden man and manipulated the action of the wooden man.

It feels a bit like playing VR.

However, Lu Xuan's soul is powerful, and he can multitask.

This side controls the wooden man, but in reality, he can chat with Cheng Lingzhu on the other side.

He watched the world.

In Mengxu City, the existence of the sun cannot be seen.

The sky in Mengxu City is dark gray.

The brightness of the daytime is even darker than the dusk in the Cangyuan Realm.

"Yes...Senior Gong Gong."

He Zhao squatted down, imitating the other members of the fairy tomb, and communicating with "Gonggong".

The "day" of Mengxu City is like this.

With a light jump, Lu Xuan landed on He Zhao's shoulder:
"When are you leaving town?"

"In another half [Market Time]."

He Zhao thought about it.

The market time is the time measurement unit of the dream market.

One market hour is equal to half an hour.

When the ruins are in half, it is the time for a stick of incense.

"Take us around the city."

Lu Xuan said.

Ru Shou did not participate in the conversation between the two.

After greeting Lu Xuan, he has been observing this world.

Hearing Lu Xuan's proposal at this moment, Ruo Shou said:

"You take the two of us with you, don't be too conspicuous."

He Zhao nodded, bent down and grabbed the mat, and put it in his pocket.

He wore a jacket with large side pockets.

Lu Xuan didn't use his hands, and jumped into the pocket of the jacket by himself.

………………

Walking in the Dream Ruins City.

There are few people on the street, and the occasional pedestrians who pass by are also thin, and they don't seem to be well nourished.

"This architectural style..."

The wooden figurine of Rushou showed a head, looking at the scene in the city.

He Zhao passed by several houses, and some of them hung black cloths on the door, which meant that there was a funeral in this family.

The cause of death is often hunting outside the city.

"Every time I go out to hunt in the city, someone will be injured, and it is not uncommon to die because of this."

He Zhao said.

"Are the monsters outside the city strong?"

Lu Xuan asked.

"Very strong."

He Zhao looked solemn:

"Usually three team members who are in the realm of convincing can subdue an ordinary nightmare beast, while evil spirits are a little more weird.

The most dangerous thing outside the city is that we can't see the road outside clearly. Even if a team member holds the [Mengzhan], it can only illuminate a space with a radius of one foot.

But nightmare beasts and evil spirits can see us. In this case, we have no initiative. "

He paused:

"Although the Nightmare Beast is vicious, its meat is edible and can strengthen its blood. If there are enough people, it will be a joy to meet the weak Nightmare Beast.

But Xie Chong can't. After Xie Chong is killed, his body will turn into a cloud of black energy and dissipate. If a person comes into contact with this black energy, even a martial artist with cultivation base will get sick. "

"What kind of cultivation are most of the people here?"

Ru Shou asked suddenly.

He Zhao was taken aback for a moment, but still answered honestly:

"The city lord is in the Netherworld Realm, which is the realm above the sitting photo... As for most people, they haven't even entered it, such as me."

He Zhao's father used to be a martial artist in the Dao base realm, and He Zhao's dream is that one day he can become like his father.

But he is still young, and his talent is only average, and he has not yet crossed that threshold.

"In this square city, I didn't feel the aura of heaven and earth."

Ru Shou thought for a while, and then asked:

"What do you practice here?"

"Dream Stone, a kind of red jade."

He Zhao made a gesture, "Only in the darkness outside the city can there be such a thing. Warriors can draw strength from it. It is very precious."

He Zhao has one on his body, which was left by his father.

However, he has not yet entered the realm of convincing and cannot use this thing.

At this moment, a figure appeared in front of He Zhao.

It was Hong Zhen.

He Zhao's complexion changed slightly, he didn't want to pay attention to him, and wanted to go around, but was blocked by Hong Zhen.

"Boy of the He family, what are you doing in such a hurry?"

Hong Zhen stopped in front of him.

"What's the matter with you?"

He Zhao frowned.

"Aren't you going to leave the city later? The outside of the city is a truly terrifying place. You are not even a submissive warrior. If you encounter any danger... tsk tsk tsk."

Hong Zhen's skinny smile didn't make any sense:
"My younger brother Hong Feng is also among them. He is a strong player in the late stage. Why don't you let him protect you?"

"You will be so kind?"

He Zhao sneered.

"Hey, it's time to talk about it."

Hong Zhen looked at him and rubbed his right index finger and thumb:

"For people to protect you, after all, you have to pay some rewards. I think the dream stone left by your father is not bad..."

"You are dreaming!"

He Zhao flatly refused, "That dream stone was left for me to practice by my father, how could it be given to you?!"

He knew that his father's last mission was with Hong Zhen.

Hong Zhen came back unscathed, but He Zhao's father, like the other members, stayed outside the city forever.

Hong Zhen wept pretendingly, and then offered to help Captain He take care of his wife and children.

After being rejected by He's mother, he never gave up, and secretly tripped up the He family many times, and now he even got the idea of ​​the dream stone.

He Zhao clenched his fist, then let go, just staring at Hong Zhen.

"If you want to practice martial arts, you have to have a life to practice."

Hong Zhen's smile restrained, and a cold expression appeared on his face:

"Do you really think you can survive after leaving the city? My surname is He, don't blame me for not giving you a chance, it's because you don't cherish it, in the future..."

He Zhao ignored his words at all, bypassed Hong Zhen, and left directly.

"Yes, boy."

Standing in He Zhao's pocket, Lu Xuan poked him with a wooden arm:
"It's such an obvious threat, you didn't choose to beat him up."

"Private fights and crimes are prohibited in the city, and everyone must abide by this rule."

He Zhao took a deep breath:

"Hong Zhen didn't dare to violate the rules of the city. I guess he was deliberately luring me to make a move. Hong Zhen's uncle is Li Zheng here. If I really fell for the bait and the handle fell into his hands, I'm afraid I'd be hurt. My mother."

He Zhao has experienced a lot since his father passed away.

He is more sensible and more mature than his peers.

"You might as well think about what to do later."

Ruo Shou said, "That Hong Feng is on your team, after leaving the city, I'm afraid it will be against you."

"What's so scary about that?"

Lu Xuan said with a smile, "We are outside the city, and we are covered by seniors. A little spiritual projection from seniors is enough to suppress the entire Dream Market."

"As long as you know."

Ru Shou said leisurely:
"Don't forget, the two of you are still in the assessment. After you leave the city, all actions will be arranged by me, so you two will be safe."

"Of course there is no problem."

Lu Xuan is as good as others.

He was going to observe the harvest.

"Understood, senior."

He Zhao replied.

At this moment, Rushou was thinking secretly in his heart.

After seeing the architectural style, practice system and language customs here.

He already had some guesses about when the Dream Market City came from.

It is estimated that in this dark world, there should be an opportunity waiting for the latecomers.

"It's just a way of mental projection. You can only stay in this city for twelve hours, and you can't live there for a long time. Look for opportunities."

Ru Shou thought in his heart:

"There are rules in the fairy tomb. Members can't kill each other, and it's definitely not allowed to seize the house. You might as well use the technique of deceiving the mind to control this kid and make him my puppet..."

He thought again that there was another wooden figure in Shebishi's pocket.

"If Gonggong is present, I'm afraid it will be difficult to deal with it. We have to find a way to expel his spiritual projection first..."

Rushou makes plans for himself.

………………

city ​​gate.

More than ten figures gathered together.

"Is everyone here?"

A yellow-faced man with a sharp ax hanging from his waist asked.

"Captain, there are thirteen people in total, none of them are missing, and they are all here."

Standing next to him was a man in his 30s.

He was holding a long knife in his hand, and there was a murderous look between his brows.

Compared with the yellow-faced man, he was very young.

This person is Hong Zhen's "brother", Hong Feng.

There is not only one hunting team every day, but is divided into several groups and set off in turns.

It stands to reason that there is strength in numbers.

The hunting team should gather together to encircle and suppress the nightmare beasts together.

But the rules of Dream Market are not like this.

In Dream Market, the larger the team, the more nightmare beasts and evil spirits they will encounter.

At the same time, the higher the realm of the strong in the team, the stronger the monsters will be attracted.

The members of the hunting team who entered the darkness were like shining torches.

The longer you stay and the brighter the fire, the more terrifying the monsters you will attract.

After so many years of trial and error, Mengxu City has mastered the most suitable match.

The number of team members is between ten and 15 people, among which the highest realm can only be the Concentrating Aperture Warrior.

Strong men with sitting photos and above can only go out of the city alone, or go out with warriors of the same realm.

Because the stronger the strength, the stronger the monsters attracted, once the two sides fight, it is easy to affect other team members.

In the team that He Zhao belonged to, the yellow-faced man with the highest state was the captain, whose cultivation was at the early stage of Concentrating Aperture.

His name is Zhang Wanjun.

The second one was a middle-aged woman named Li Rui in the middle stage of Daoji.

Then there was Hong Feng, at the peak of his admiration.

Among the thirteen people, four people have not crossed the threshold of convincing state, and He Zhao is among them.

Hong Feng noticed He Zhao behind the crowd, and greed appeared in his eyes.

He has already negotiated with his brother, as long as he leaves the city, he will find a chance to mutilate He Zhao.

When the time comes to put pressure on He Zhao's mother, Hong Zhen will be an important person, and Hong Feng will take the dream stone of the He family into his pocket.

Hong Feng would not kill him.

Because Hong Zhen told him that a burden is more useful than a dead person.

He Zhaohui dragged his mother down and became the straw that crushed her strong heart, so she had to submit...

If He Zhao died, He Zhao's mother's weakness would be gone, which would be detrimental to their plan.

He Zhao didn't know what Hong Feng was thinking at this moment.

But for this person, he was on guard.

"The three of us each choose our team members and divide them into groups. If there are nightmare beasts coming, we can form a team to fight against the enemy."

The yellow-faced man Zhang Wanjun said.

Li Rui and Hong Feng nodded at the same time.

Not counting them, there were ten people in total.

Zhang Wanjun's realm was higher, and he was responsible for four people alone, and the Daoji realm woman and Hong Feng each chose three people.

As expected, after selecting two team members, Hong Feng raised his hand and pointed at He Zhao:
"Come to me too."

He Zhao's expression sank, he followed behind Hong Feng without saying anything.

The gate of the city opened slowly, and outside the gate was a thick darkness, boundless.

Everyone walked into the darkness, and the city gate was closed.

Behind him, the last ray of light disappeared completely.

Li Rui held something like a crystal ball in his hand, and lit it up with his own spiritual power.

A soft light radiated out, illuminating the space with a radius of one foot.

At the end of the team, someone also activated Mengzhan.

In the darkness outside the city of Dream Market.

Even for warriors, it is difficult to move without this thing.

Zhang Wanjun took out an animal skin map, and after thinking for a while, he ordered:

"Let's go to this place."

Mengxu City has been exploring for many years, and this map shows which are safe areas and which are dangerous areas.

Although there will be more resources in the danger zone, Zhang Wanjun acts prudently and is determined to go to the safe zone first.

After half an hour.

"Listen carefully, there is movement there, it's a nightmare!"

A team member lowered his voice.

Everyone held their breath and walked towards the direction he indicated, and gradually heard a sound similar to snoring.

"It's really a nightmare."

Li Rui looked happy, and she approached the source of the sound with the lamp in her hand.

An animal shaped like a domestic pig with a fat body, short claws and a foot-long nose appeared in front of everyone.

The nightmare is a kind of beast outside the city of Mengxu. The meat on its body can be eaten, and it is also the main source of meat for the city of Mengxu.

Compared with the nightmare beast, although the nightmare beast has a ferocious temperament, its combat effectiveness is not very high for warriors.

With the cooperation of the hunting team, the beast can be hunted without injury for meat.

When they met a nightmare as soon as they went out, everyone was naturally happy.

Li Rui held Mengzhan in one hand, took out a dagger in the other, and touched it quietly.

Three feet away from the nightmare, the nightmare suddenly became alert and woke up from sleep.

Seeing Li Rui's approach, it immediately let out a low growl and rushed towards him.

Li Rui moved deftly, avoiding the attack of the nightmare, and stabbed the nightmare with a dagger.

The nightmare took pain and shook its body, but it became more and more ferocious.

The members of Li Rui's team immediately joined the battle, and together with the team leader, hunted down the beast.

Neither Zhang Wanjun nor Hong Feng did anything. First, Li Rui's team was strong enough, and second, they needed to guard their surroundings to prevent nightmare beasts and evil spirits from coming.

After half a cup of tea, the battle ended, and the corpse of a nightmare fell to the ground and was included in the magic weapon of space.

"Let's keep looking inside."

Zhang Wanjun said.

An hour later.

Looking at the corpses of eighteen nightmares in his magic weapon storage.

Zhang Wanjun fell silent.

This hunt...is weird.

They found eighteen nightmares in this safe zone.

Almost met one after walking for a while.

Ever since Zhang Wanjun was a child, he had never seen anyone who hunted and brought back so much harvest.

And after an hour, there was not a single nightmare beast or evil spirit.

Although this is a safe zone, nightmare beasts and evil spirits seldom come and go, but these two monsters also feed on nightmares.

Eighteen nightmares, plus a hunting team of 13 people.

Didn't even attract a nightmare beast or evil spirit?
Too lucky to be true.

Zhang Wanjun's mind was a little out of order and he couldn't understand.

"Let's go back, we've gained a lot today."

Zhang Wanjun rubbed his eyebrows.

He felt something was wrong with this matter, and decided to bring everyone back to the city as soon as possible.

In the team, Hong Feng's eyes were dark.

His eyes fell on He Zhao.

"Is this kid so lucky?"

Hong Feng felt that he had miscalculated.

He is bound to get the dream stone of the He family.

Private fighting is prohibited in the city, and if he wants to maim He Zhao and force He's mother to submit, he must do it secretly outside the city.

But now that the large forces are together, he has no chance at all.

The next time He Zhao went out to hunt in the city, he didn't know when he would have to wait, and he might not be able to team up with him again.

Hong Feng narrowed his eyes.

He quietly took out a thumb-sized black wood carving, cut his finger, and smeared it on the wood carving.

The wood carving glowed slightly, as if some kind of message had been conveyed into the darkness.

"It hasn't been long since I came out, and I'm going back..."

Lu Xuan watched the captain's actions.

He felt that the other party might... usually have bad luck.

Eighteen nightmares can't be too many, can they?

Lu Xuan pondered in his heart.

It is naturally related to Lu Xuan that everyone can have this kind of harvest.

After all, when he goes out for breakfast, he can pick up seven or eight chances in the same snack street.

Sometimes he is too lazy to take it, and someone will force it into his arms.

Lu Xuan said that this is very troublesome.

But obviously, today's harvest is too much, which has exceeded Captain Zhang's upper limit.

Since he decided to leave, Lu Xuan couldn't stop him.

Everyone was about to leave this place and return the same way.

Suddenly, a ferocious bird song came.

Li Rui's complexion changed, and without any hesitation, she followed the voice and threw out the dream lamp in her hand.

With the help of the light of Mengzhan, everyone saw that a strange bird appeared in the darkness.

This strange bird has a huge body, with its wings stretched out, exceeding three feet.

Its body was damaged, some places were covered with black feathers, while some places were exposed with white bones.

Three heads, one intact and one with only the skull.

But the middle position is empty, the head has been cut off, and there is black blood dripping from the severed neck, which makes people shudder.

Zhang Wanjun shouted loudly, rushed up with a big ax in hand, and fought with the strange bird.

The strange bird fluttered its wings and set off a gust of black wind, but it attacked the people below.

"Everyone go back to the city, spread out!"

Li Rui shouted immediately.

Everyone knew that they could not participate in the battle between the condensed aperture warriors, so they separated and ran towards the direction of Mengxu City.

Before leaving Mengxu City, the members of the hunting team all wore a special kind of jade talisman.

The closer they are to Mengxu City, the brighter the jade talisman will be, which can help them identify the way in the dark when they are separated from the large army.

He Zhao was about to leave when he heard a voice,
It is Ru Shou who speaks:

"Go to your right... I want to see what is outside the city of Mengxu."
