Chapter 42
The door of the train car closed. Liu Liang stepped on the iron ladder into the cab, filled the boiler with coal, and after the pressure gauge rose, he directly pulled the joystick to open the boiler. White steam was sprayed out from the air valve, and the locomotive pulled the carriage and the mine car behind to start the road.
The train first departs to Wuzhukou Station, and then goes from Wuzhukou Station to the front end station near the vehicle factory.
After getting off the bus from the front end station, the road leading to the noble manor needs to be explored slowly. The area map that Liu Liang found in the vehicle factory office building last came in handy, and he spread the map in the carriage to check it out carefully.
The noble manor is just north of the front station, with a journey of about two thousand meters. According to the time in the secret realm, walking requires a day and one night. During the journey, you have to pass an abandoned village and pass through a dark valley with dense vegetation. At the end of the valley is the noble manor castle.
Liu Liang put away the map, walked out of the carriage and looked up at the sky, and said to Lei Zhen and his disciples: "It's going to be dark soon. We need to stay at the railway station overnight and put torches in the station to prevent monsters from attacking at night."
After hearing this, the disciples were shocked. There were monsters attacking at night at night. The beautiful journey and sightseeing process ended like this. Next was the nightmare mode.
Liu Liang observed the damage in the waiting hall. The windows were not covered by glass, and the front and rear doors were not blocked by the doors. However, repairing the doors was of little use. These monsters far from the core area were very powerful, and breaking into the door was a basic operation for them.
What Liu Liang has to do now is to tear down the east wall and repair the west wall, use the collapsed stones in the hall to make stone walls on the workbench, and the doors and windows are blocked with walls. As for the collapsed piece on the round roof, there is really no material to find, so just use the wooden boards in the inventory to repair them slowly when you have time.
The only monsters that can climb walls and enter the hall from the dome are spiders. The disciples who fight the Spider Thunder Gate have already developed professional skills and believe they can do it.
Liu Liang immediately started work, waved his pickaxe to dig out the ruins of the building, and the useless statue in the center of the hall was also digged out and broken into stones. He placed the stones tightly on the door and windows, until no light was cast in outside, and only the faint light of the torch was left inside.
"The brightness is not enough, everyone put the gas lamp on their backs to light it up to prevent monsters from being generated in the hall."
"What, can monsters be produced in the hall?"
This sentence points out an ultimate proposition in the strange secret realm, where does the monster come from? The poor disciples of the Thunder Gate think that monsters are the indigenous people of this world. As long as the killing speed is better than their fertility with each other, monsters should kill one less.
But the truth is very cruel. Monsters are produced by this world. They exist as long as there is fog and darkness.
Those who stay in this world need to learn to coexist with them, otherwise life will be terrifying and difficult.
Liu Liang consciously let it go. He was afraid that he would scare the young men away, so he quickly made up for himself.
"If it is not a monster in the hall, how can a monster in the hall be born? What I mean is that monsters like darkness and not light. As long as we light up the hall, they will not reach out to pave the wall from outside. Yes, what I mean is to stretch out your hands and light up the hall, so don't let them reach in."
Lei Zhen nodded affirmatively and ordered the disciples: "Two people go to the front door, two people go to the back door to prevent monsters from breaking through the stone wall. The rest of them are in the center with me, staring at the open-air part of the house. Beware of them falling from the sky."
Liu Liang waved his hand, "You don't have to be so nervous. They are likely to not be able to get in. If you need to rest, go and rest."
High probability? What is the probability? They don’t want to be unconscious of being unable to enter while sleeping at night.
The night became dark, and there were rustling sounds and gloomy whimpers everywhere outside the platform, as if thousands of troops, spiders and monsters were moving outside. Lei Zhen and his disciples felt distressed when they heard it, and they were worried that they would attack them in groups. How could this simple hall stop them?
Liu Liang was at ease, so he even took out the bed from the Qiankun treasure bag and placed it in the center of the hall to prepare to go to bed.
Lei Zhen almost broke his defense. My immortal master, how can you still remember to get up and sleep at this most dangerous time? How can you sleep?
Liu Liang was thinking about my eyes closed and opened. The day passed, and it happened to be about to enter these boring moments.
Two or three monsters were digging the wall outside. The brother who was guarding the gate clenched the sword in his hand, and his heart was thumping.
There was something climbing the walls on both sides of the house, and Lei Zhen looked over his head nervously. He remembered that the immortal master said that these monsters were coming towards people, and as long as someone appeared, they would attack at night. What's strange is that the walls were blocked and they couldn't see inside. How did they know that there were people in the building? Could it be that they smelled the human smell by smelling it? The noses of these monsters were so good.
Liu Liang was already snoring while lying on the bed. Lei Zhen turned his head and looked at it. He was admired in his heart. He was worthy of being an immortal. He could sleep in a room surrounded by monsters. I, Lei Zhen, will never reach this level in my life.
At this time, a disciple pointed to the top of his head and shouted: "Master, look, there is something on the roof scratching the wooden board."
He immediately assigned two disciples and said, "You go to the second floor to watch. Once something breaks the wooden board and rushes down, you will warn me not to disturb the immortals' rest."
The two disciples carried the black iron swords and walked along the stairs to the circular corridor on the second floor, and looked up nervously at the gap above which was repaired by wooden boards.
The gap looks perfunctory, just a few wooden boards stacked, and there is no use of nail glue and tenon. There are still spaces in some places, and you can see arthropods crawling around on it, flashing with dark red eyes. From time to time, huge strange birds hit the sky and pecking the spider away as food.
When the birds rush, there was a lot of noise. The round roof made a rumbling sound, and even cracks appeared. Small stones fell down. However, the wooden boards set up by the immortals were as stable as rocks. Although they were falling for a long time, you can always trust Master Liu in terms of building stability.
It was dawn soon, and the monsters retreated from outside the door. Lei Zhen and his disciples experienced a night of shocking shock.
Liu Liang sat up from the bed, knocked off the bed with a pickaxe, and then asked Lei Zhen and the others: "I had a good rest last night. Let's set off quickly while dawn."
Lei Zhen and his disciples looked at each other, wanting to speak but unable to say anything, they wanted to sleep. Although it turned out that the hall was safe, who could fall asleep under that situation?”
Liu Liang carried a pickaxe to dig out the stones at the door and led them onto the expedition.
The forest could not see the end at first glance, but from the terrain they were constantly going downhill. Liu Liang walked at the end with a gas light on his back and could always find some new collections from the bushes in the grass.
At this time, what appeared in the forest was no longer spiders, but wolves and bears, but a big cockroach, whose name was called scarab. This must be Jiang Feng's prank in the text setting. How can scarab be cockroaches? Even if it is a dung beetle, it cannot be cockroaches.
Scarab
Life: 800
Attack power: 120
After Lei Zhen and the others saw this giant insect, they also shouted "cockroach". It seems that no matter which universe or plane it is in, the creature Xiaoqiang will always exist.
