Soon, the 12-hour break was over and everyone's door was opened.

Cheng Xu, wearing a full set of equipment, opened the door very carefully, and the outside world was full of disgusting smells.

But this was not too threatening to Cheng Xu, and it even helped to improve his attributes.

Cheng Xu looked at the pool of smelly pus outside the door, and tried the strength of the wooden shelf, and came to a conclusion.

Never fight at the door.

"Can this thing really support my weight?"

Cheng Xu was very skeptical about the strength of this thing. To be on the safe side, he took out a piece of extra reinforced wood and planned to build a bridge.

But unfortunately, in the area outside the house, the reinforcement material cannot be extended. At this moment, it is just a piece of wood the size of a brick.

"Hmm... how about this?"

Cheng Xu walked into the door, stretched the wood, and then placed it on the rock steps on the opposite bank. The long wooden board was successfully fixed on it.

"In this way, I can walk over safely, but the risk of opening the door is a bit too great. What if an invisible enemy approaches... it's not worth it."

After thinking about it, Cheng Xu decided to go over by himself and find something else to reinforce the shelf.

After a few minutes of careful crawling, Cheng Xu successfully reached the other side.

It was a church built with stone as the foundation and clay as the walls. The furnishings inside were very simple, with only two rows of rotten seats and a podium.

Behind the podium was the god worshipped by this church.

His image was extremely filthy and primitive, and it looked consistent with the surrounding environment.

"A bunch of hemp ropes stuck together with mucus, this can also be considered a statue..."

In front of the statue, it seems that a large piece of white animal fat can be seen, which should be the meat of human-like livestock.

"Disgusting."

Cheng Xu was about to leave the church and explore the surroundings, but he heard the creaking sound of a wooden shelf next to him.

Cheng Xu's nerves immediately tensed up, and he raised the folding knife in his hand, and the crossbow was quickly tightened, ready to fire at any time.

"Oh! I thought there was no one here..."

A man holding a hammer raised his hand, and it was obvious that his nerves were also a little tense, and he kept the attacking posture.

He was wearing a set of heavy-looking plate armor, which Cheng Xu particularly hated. He was an absolute crossbow nemesis. As long as he put down his helmet, no crossbow arrows could hurt him.

"I think we should all calm down. After all, it's not easy for anyone to come to this place..."

The man put down the hammer first, and Cheng Xu slowly put down the folding knife in his rhythm, deliberately and obviously loosening the useless crossbow in front of him.

"That's right, let's keep this distance..."

Cheng Xu didn't say anything, but proved his agreement with his actions.

Just when they wanted to chat, the sound of someone climbing the shelf came from another direction, and he could even hear his curse.

"This ladder was made by that bastard..."

When he climbed over the ladder, he looked up and was almost scared to fall into the water.

"Oh, oh, don't be nervous, calm down, we two won't touch you at all..."

The man was not young, and his white hair was tangled together, and it looked like he hadn't washed it for a long time.

He held an awl for shoe repair and a small leather hammer in his hand, and wore very well-made leather armor.

"Uncle, let's put down our weapons first, like the two of us, and let's chat, how about it?"

The older man nodded and slowly put down the weapon in his hand that had little lethality.

The three people stood in the three corners of the room, keeping a very subtle distance, looking very harmonious, but wary of each other.

"Let me start first. I guess the three of us will be neighbors for a long time, so I'll introduce myself first. I'm Ma Yao, and my profession is "blacksmith."

Hearing this, the old man's expression eased a lot, and he began to introduce himself with a slightly crooked mouth.

"Zhou De, a shoemaker..."

"Uncle, you're so mean, I've told you my profession, but if you don't, and the young man behind you doesn't tell me, then I'll be at a disadvantage..."

Ma Yao raised his hammer intentionally or unintentionally and weighed it in his hand.

"I'm a "tanner", I don't know anything else."

Cheng Xu looked at the two people in front of him, and secretly

It is said that no one who can come here is a good person.

"It's my turn... I'm Li Xu, and my profession is "doctor." "

Cheng Xu made up an identity and a profession that is not offensive at all.

"Oh? Doctor, then I have to make friends with you..."

Ma Yao laughed and nodded to the two of them.

"What are you two going to do next?"

Zhou De didn't speak, his mouth was crooked, and he remained in the state of an old man with dementia.

Cheng Xu had to speak up and take over the conversation: "Look at the surrounding environment."

"That's good, according to my observation, this small pavilion has four roads, three of which lead to our residence, and the last one should lead to somewhere else, right?"

Cheng Xu looked at the remaining road, a wide road paved with stone slabs extended outside the church and led to a small island.

"Let's... go over and take a look? "

Cheng Xu nodded, smiling with his exposed eyes, "You go first, we don't have armor as resistant as yours."

"Okay! Then I'll be the vanguard for you two."

Ma Yao didn't hesitate at all, and walked directly through the stools and walked towards the stone road.

His figure didn't seem to be hurt by the trap at all, and he passed the stone road smoothly.

"Come on, no problem."

Cheng Xu looked at Zhou De, the old man coughed, and said very stiffly: "You go first! "

Cheng Xu nodded, alert to the movement behind him, and then walked towards the stone road.

A few seconds later, he also passed the stone road and stepped onto the island.

The vegetation on the island was very lush, and several trees of unknown species completely blocked the sky, and no sunlight could be seen.

But the island itself was not very big, and the other end could be seen from one end.

Through the gaps in the trees, Cheng Xu saw two other stone roads and the churches connected to them.

"These things are distributed along the spider web structure..."

Around the island, in the areas separated by the stone roads, there are exactly the same sewage pits, which have been stagnant for many years.

After Zhou De also came over, the three of them still maintained that subtle distance and began to explore around the island.

"This place is also connected to other areas, and you can't see where the boundary is at a glance..."

"Yes, you can't see the boundary..."
