Chapter 24: The Terrifying Monster

As night falls, the red moon rises in the sky. The icy cool wind blows from afar, making people shiver inexplicably... "The gray fog has become active again, and the days ahead will not be easy." As soon as he finished speaking, a mantis-like creature swooped towards Lin Shan and arrived in the blink of an eye. Lin Shan, who was holding a red lantern, had already noticed it, and his heart light condensed into a pale golden spear that instantly penetrated the unknown creature. When the creature stopped struggling, Lin Shan stepped forward to check and found that it was indeed a mantis. This mantis is half a meter long, with a brown shell. Its forelimbs are like two extremely sharp knives. There are jagged barbs in the blades. If it is scratched, a piece of flesh will be cut off. Lin Shan stared at the mantis's forelimbs for a while, then his mind turned into a blade and cut off one of the forelimbs, leaving only the sharp front part. Then he cut a piece of log and put it on as a handle, and a simple dagger was ready. It could be used for self-protection in the event of an emergency and exhaustion of spiritual energy. Early the next morning, the corpses of mantises piled up in a hill. Lin Shan opened his eyes, and the two circles of black panda eyes were particularly conspicuous.

Such large mantises kept attacking him at night, just like poking into a mantis nest, and he didn't dare to move at night. Fortunately, the mantis could handle this pseudo-supernatural thing easily, but it would be troublesome if something strange happened because of his moving position. So I could only stay alert for the sneak attack of the mantis all night, and only calmed down when it was almost dawn. Including last night, he had not slept for two whole nights! He untied the horse rope tied beside him and looked at the mark on the parchment. There were still 300 kilometers left before the first destination. "Drive!" Lin Shan shouted softly and changed direction. The horse began to gallop, and Lin Shan changed direction from time to time. Horses, like people, would lose their way in the gray fog. Without the suppression of the unknown, the weirdness in the gray fog began to become active. After traveling for just an hour, we encountered two places that were suspected of being weird. Fortunately, the scope of their supernatural coverage was not large, and Lin Shan took a detour to avoid them in advance. "Ta, ta, ta!" Suddenly, the sound of feet treading water came to Lin Shan's ears. Lin Shan's heart tightened. This was the ground...where did the water come from? "Ta, ta, ta!" The sound of treading water was still there, but the road ahead was flat without any water stains. Lin Shanxin raised her voice and looked down. The next second. His hair stood on end, his mind trembled, and the horse underneath him completely turned into a bone horse. The sound of "ta, ta, ta" was not the sound of treading water, but the sound of the horse's hoof bone contacting the ground! The horse seemed completely unaware of the fact that there was only a skeleton left of it, and it still ran forward at a moderate speed, getting faster and faster. Lin Shan was restless now and didn't know how to deal with it. It seemed to him that there was nothing unusual around him, but the horse underneath him turned into bones without even realizing it... He hurriedly took out the parchment and wrote tremblingly: Lin Shan: [What’s going on? 】 Parchment: [Unknown. 】

"..." Lin Shan looked at the word "unknown" with cold sweat dripping from his forehead. The horse under his crotch was completely disobedient and was galloping desperately. Enough to run at top speed for an hour. Finally, it seemed that it had reached its limit. The horse's front hooves suddenly jumped up, and when it landed, it suddenly fell into pieces. Lin Shan rolled over when the horse fell to the ground and was not affected. He first looked at the place where the horse had just run, and then looked at the broken bones scattered on the ground. He remained silent and stood there for a long time. At this time, he finally knew the cause and effect. The place he had just passed was a boundless sea of ​​bones. Nothing could be seen at the other end. Only by looking back across the sea of ​​bones could he see its true shape. The horse had noticed his own changes when he accidentally entered it, but he still used his bone body to carry him across the sea of ​​bones. In other words, he was saved by the horse that lost its life after following him for just two days. Lin Shan felt a little unhappy in his heart, and his light turned into a shovel, commanding the shovel to dig a deep pit, collect the horse bones scattered around, and bury them in the pit. Then set up a grave and find a big stone from the surroundings to make a monument. On it, inscribe: "The tomb of the unknown black horse ridden by Lin Shan of the human race." "There's nothing I can do to help you. If I can become famous in this world in the future, you will be famous if I ride on you." After Lin Shan polished the stone tablet, he turned around and left. He had to walk the rest of the way on his own. At night, under the red moon, Lin Shan ate some dry food that he brought with him. It was actually the gray steamed buns from the camp. After two days of storage, the steamed buns had become hard. When biting into his mouth, it felt as if he was chewing on hard noodles. . At this time, there were still 200 kilometers away from the first destination. He lost his horse midway and only traveled 100 kilometers today, less than half the planned distance. Every next step will be like walking on thin ice. If he encounters something as strange as the Sea of ​​Bones again, then he can declare the end of this dream called life. Lin Shan prayed silently, hoping that he would have better luck in the future. He fell asleep quickly after not sleeping for two days. "Lin Shan, what do you think is above the gray fog?" "Do you want to take a look above the gray mist?" "Let's go and see it together." "You are so weak!" "You can only live in a circle now, don't run around, it will be very troublesome if you die..." "Oh, I forgot. A weak creature like you will die if you listen to me... Several races and countries have perished like this. I obviously didn't want to hurt them... I hope you are okay." The ethereal voice kept echoing in his mind, like a complex and incomprehensible spell, making people inexplicably frightened and trembling. Lin Shan suddenly opened his eyes and gasped violently. At this moment, his ears, eyes, nostrils, mouth, and seven orifices were bleeding, which looked particularly creepy! "Dream?" "But what's the matter with this blood?"

Lin Shan looked at the blood on his hand. He was too sleepy last night and fell into a deep sleep with his eyes closed. Fortunately, there was no danger. He looked at the blood on his hand again and said uncertainly: "Or maybe it happened..." He picked up the red lantern and continued on his way. After so many things, Lin Shan's heart was already big. A little bleeding was nothing. As long as people were still alive, they should keep going. "Boom!" "Boom!" Lin Shan was walking forward carefully, and suddenly felt the ground shaking. Then the sky suddenly darkened. "Woo--" A hissing sound resounded throughout the world, a bit like the sound of a ship's whistle, shaking the world. Lin Shan instantly felt deafness in both ears and a splitting headache. He covered his ears with his hands and looked up at the sky. The sky was blocked by gray fog and he could not see anything. He could only feel that it was getting dark. He could vaguely see a towering pillar in the extremely far distance. Gray fog was lingering around the pillar, and the towering pillar was getting farther and farther away. Every time it was raised and lowered, it would make a loud "booming" sound. "Evil, high-order evil!" Lin Shan was shocked and had this thought in his mind. "What order of evil is this? Will I have to face this kind of thing when I ascend to the next order?" Lin Shan was numb in his heart. This thing was so big that he could not see its full appearance. He could only barely see a towering pillar that looked like a leg. "This kick can destroy a city..." The more he saw, the more he felt his insignificance. He smiled bitterly and shook his head. He put away his thoughts and continued to move forward with the red lantern. He did not think too far away, but only set a small goal for himself: to advance 70 kilometers today.
