The end of the world starts with failing the exam

"The ancient creature that lives in the Western Continent is very difficult to deal with. With your current strength, you must not provoke it."

"I know, as long as you follow its rules, you'll be fine, right?"

"should be."

Chen Jing looked at the vast gray plain outside the valley, his eyes gradually becoming serious.

Although they have not actually stepped into the western wasteland yet, the smell of blood that hits their faces is enough to prove that this place is more terrifying than they imagined.

Especially that kind of dead silence...

There is no sound...

"By the way, I forgot to ask you last time, what is the name of that ancient creature? It should have the same name as Gehro and the others, right?"

"Of course it has a name."

"He" in his mind whispered, patiently explaining Chen Jing's doubts.

"It's called Xi."

Chapter 414: Shushu I like the most... (Part 1)

The ancient god who lives in the western part of the continent is named "Xi".

Fuxi's Xi.

According to the "him" in my mind, this ancient god hiding in the Western Continent is far stronger than Gehro, but after experiencing that war, its strength has also declined greatly, but not everyone can do it at this stage. To deal with.

The entire Western Continent is its territory, or in other words, it is part of its body, so from a certain perspective, it is everywhere within the scope of the Western Continent.

"Its desire to conquer is not strong, so it actually doesn't pose much of a threat to the outside world. It just needs to stay quiet within its territory."

"Just like the old man said."

"In the Western Continent, you cannot fly, fight, or speak loudly. You must always maintain a pious and polite silence. This can avoid all disasters."

While patiently listening to "him" in your mind.

Chen Jing had already led everyone to follow Chen Boxu's footsteps, and stepped into the dense forest in front of him with a vigilant look.

"Through this forest is the river valley."

Chen Bofu was walking at the front of the team, holding a cigarette in his mouth without lighting it, and his voice was lowered involuntarily. After all, he was truly educated by "Xi", and he gained wisdom every time he learned it. This is clearly reflected in him.

"Back then, I stayed in the River Valley tribe for a period of time to recuperate. I don't know how they are doing now..."

"This place is so quiet." Wei Nan also heard Chen Jing and the others talk about the taboos here, so no matter how careless she is, she can't help but seem a little reserved at the moment. After all, she is still afraid of death. "Except for the noise we make, other The sounds seemed to have disappeared, and even the sound of the wind became blurry.”

"No scent of other living things."

Yan Que has been observing his surroundings, with a solemn expression on his face.

"There seems to be nothing here except plants. This situation is almost consistent with the records I saw in the Priory's archives."

"The same is true for the internal records of the Western Continent in our temple." Qiao Youning held a bag of gummy candies made from honeydew fruits in her hand, and like a feeder, she took turns throwing them into the mouths of Wei Nan Yanque and Chen Jing, "Said This is a silent forbidden place.”

"Didn't your grandma tell you anything else?" Chen Bofu asked coldly. Although the words in his mouth sounded a bit like swearing, he was really curious whether grandma Hong had told Qiao Youning anything about the Western Continent. Hidden legends.

Chen Bofu knew a lot about the Western Continent, but he didn't know much about it. After all, he was not the kind of patient old scholar who just wanted to come here to gain some experience. If he was asked to study this place for many years, he could Don't have that patience.

Therefore, compared to him, those from major sects or parliaments obviously know more about the secrets of the Western Continent, but the information they know cannot be made public, or even the ordinary members inside. Know.

But is Qiao Youning an ordinary person?

That old woman almost raised her as her own granddaughter!

Let this girl follow everyone to adventure in the Western Continent. Can the old woman not remind her anything else?

"Yes." Qiao Youning nodded, not hiding anything, "Grandma told me that the ancient gods in the Western Continent have been very restless recently, and the true form hidden underground seems to be more active than before."

As soon as she finished speaking, Qiao Youning added another sentence.

"According to the temple's monitoring results of the Western Continent in recent years, the ancient god's power is obviously increasing, but strangely, its territory has not expanded at all, and it does not seem to have any desire to invade the outside world."

While they were talking, everyone was gradually walking through the jungle.

Although everyone is deliberately controlling the sounds they make and not daring to be reckless with the ups and downs of their steps, it has to be said that muscle control and body balance are almost the instincts of the old descendants, including the seemingly weak Qiao Youning...

Everyone can run quickly and silently. Although this speed is still far behind everyone running at full strength, it is still better than walking cautiously step by step.

Beyond the jungle.

This is the river valley mentioned by Chen Boxu and Chen Jing.

But here, no one saw the tribe that Chen Boxu mentioned had lived here for a long time.

"Fuck, I moved without even saying a word..."

Chen Bofu lit a cigarette and stood on the cliff next to the river valley, frowning as he looked at the desolate scene below.

There was once a river that ran across the Western Continent.

At least that's what the legend says.

But as early as the last time Chen Boxu came here, he had never seen any river water, and the empty river bed had been dry for who knows how many years.

In this desolate river valley, everyone can barely find traces of some tribes that once lived here. From these traces, it is not difficult to judge that the number of members of this valley tribe is definitely not small, and is even larger than most. The wasteland tribes are all larger.

Judging from the traces left at the scene, there was no fighting here. Maybe it was just moved to another place...

"There is something."

Suddenly, as if Chen Bofu noticed something, he jumped down from the cliff above the river valley.

Seeing how big his movements were, everyone was immediately frightened, fearing that the old man might not be able to control his voice.

But reality proves that ginger is still spicy when old.

At the moment of landing.

The gravel under Chen Bofu's feet suddenly turned into a puddle of black water, or a gelatinous substance close to asphalt. It was soft and could release force, and was able to minimize the sound of landing like a silent sponge. .

After landing, Chen Bofu turned around and waved to everyone. He did not dare to make any noise and could only urge everyone to come down with his mouth.

Looking at the spreading black water on the ground, Chen Jing and the others jumped in without hesitation.

"You've been like this... couldn't we run faster..." Chen Jing walked to the old man and couldn't help but complained in a low voice, "You first turn the road ahead of us into black water... We are here No matter how fast you run up there, there is no sound..."

"Forgot."

Chen Bofu chuckled and walked forward, still explaining.

"I haven't been here for many years. Grandpa will pave the way for you in a while. You can run as much as you want, but... I have to see what this thing is first."

After saying that, Chen Bofu suddenly squatted down and inserted his hands silently into the stone ground beside the river valley, as if in front of him, no matter how hard the surface was, it would become as soft as water.

In the astonished eyes of everyone, Chen Boxu exerted a little force with his hands, and he gradually tore a huge wound on the ground, like a soup dumpling punctured with chopsticks...

The whole process didn't make any sound.

It was eerily quiet.

Chen Bofu didn't stop until the wounds on the surface were torn apart by Chen Bofu and gradually rolled up, and the gap on the surface was almost three meters wide.

"I just said that there is a faint biological smell here! It seems that my induction is correct!" Chen Boxu smiled proudly, holding a cigarette and squatting next to the crack in the ground, looking into the depths with interest, "These The ghosts must have just moved here, I didn’t see them last time I came here.”

At this moment, everyone gathered around, squatting next to the crack in the ground and looking into the depths.

"This is……"

Chen Jing looked at the trembling weird creatures below and couldn't help but frown.

"Ratman?"

Chapter 415: I like Shu Shu the most... (Part 2)

Under the cracks in the ground.

It is an excavated underground space.

It's about three or four meters above the ground. At a glance, it looks a bit like the layout of a commercial building in the outside world, with three bedrooms, two living rooms and two bathrooms... Why the hell are you building a bathroom underground? ! Is there a sewer here?

Chen Jing already felt outrageous when he discovered this scaled-down version of commercial housing.

But what's even more outrageous is that there are people living inside.

Well... at least it looks a bit human.

"If the bosses of MGM and Warner see this... they must not file for bankruptcy..." Qiao Youning said quietly.

Chen Jing also had a look of surprise on his face. He looked at the rat men in casual clothes, who were no more than the size of a palm. The more he looked at them, the more outrageous they felt.

These little guys are indeed very similar to Jerry in Tom and Jerry. Except for the different fur colors, their appearance is basically the same, and their standing posture is very similar to humans...

"Hello...you guys..."

The seemingly bold black-haired rat man standing at the front said tremblingly, his voice so small that you couldn't hear it unless you listened carefully.

"Excuse me, gentlemen and ladies, what do you want to do when you come to our house..."

"Oh shit! You can talk!" Wei Nan was very excited. After all, this was the first time she met such an interesting creature. "This is your home?! Did you decorate it yourself? Where did you buy that toilet? It's so exquisite. …”

Chen Bofu kicked Wei Nan away, frowned and cursed.

"What a gossip! You can't ask anything useful!"

"..."

"What's that! Come here! Master, I have something to ask you!" Chen Boxu pointed at the black-haired mouse.

Hearing this, the black-haired mouse took a few trembling steps forward. At the same time, he winked at the family members behind him, telling them not to be afraid. These impolite descendants did not seem to have any hostility...

"You ask..." the black-haired mouse said tremblingly.

Chen Bofu was smoking a cigarette with a serious face, as if he was thinking about something big, his eyes became deep, and he hesitated for a long time before he asked.

"Which decoration company did your family find?"

"?"

"This decoration style looks quite cozy. My grandson should like it." Chen Bofu said seriously, still complaining, "That damn Yongye decoration company did a great job, that's right. The style is so old-fashioned that my grandson always felt that his house was haunted when he was a child."

"...Old man, are you serious?"

Everyone stared at Chen Boxu in shock, and it was only then that they remembered... This old man's brain circuit was not that of a normal person. If he hadn't been so crazy, how could he be scolded by outsiders? Where's the old madman?

"Forget it, let's not talk about it for now."

Chen Bofu took a puff of cigarette and pointed at the river valley and asked.

"What about the tribe that lived here before?"

"Run... ran away..." the black-haired mouse whispered, "About a month ago... they moved away from here... It seems they made up their mind to move to the south or the east or the north..."

"If you fart with me again, do you think I'll slap you?" Chen Bofu cursed, pointed at Wei Nan and said, "This girl's biggest hobby is eating rat fuck, don't force me to pickle you and hang you up! "

"Old man, you're bragging, don't take me with you!" Wei Nan was so angry that if she hadn't always kept Chen Jing's instructions in mind, she would have shouted out now, "You just like eating rats!"

"They really said that!"

The black-haired mouse couldn't tell whether the old man was trying to scare it or not. It suddenly became speechless and looked at Wei Nan with a clear look of fear.

"They didn't even confirm their destination! They just left like that!"

"Leaving in a hurry without confirming the destination..." Chen Jing looked up at the river valley thoughtfully, "Why does it sound like he is running for his life..."

"Escape!" The black-haired mouse nodded hastily, "If they don't run away, they will die!"

"What's going on?" Chen Bofu asked with a frown.

"There are monsters."

The black-haired mouse said cautiously, the whiskers around his mouth trembling.

"It should have been about a month and a half to two months ago...a monster that looks very similar to you suddenly appeared in this wasteland..."

"Looks a lot like us?" Wei Nan was stunned, and couldn't tell if this was a curse.

"Yeah! Just like you... no no! Just like humans!"
