Gray sky, gray water.
On the gray, turbid water, countless bitter trees that have been dead for who knows how many years point crookedly at the sky, like countless gray dead fingers stuck in the ground.
On the endless gray water surface, there are some hills and hills from time to time, and messy shrubs are growing feebly. Some snakes, insects, rats and ants are sneaking through the shrubs and weeds, and they are heartily performing scenes of the jungle.
Faint thunder rolled from high places, and the gray clouds feebly lowered to the ground for a short distance. Thumb-sized raindrops first hesitantly dripped thousands of points from the clouds, and splashed thousands of them on the water. There were small ripples, and then a heavy rainstorm roared down, causing the sky and the earth to change color.
The strong wind howled and swept across, and several vultures with dirty feathers screamed and descended from the clouds, flapping their wings and landing awkwardly on a hill. They jumped into their nests, stretched out their bare necks, and stared at the sky with evil eyes!
If they couldn't do it, these ferocious guys would really like to bite off a piece of Sky's flesh.
A low roar suddenly sounded, and several messy jackals jumped up from the bushes and flew into the vulture's nest. The vultures flapped their wings, waved their sharp claws, and tore fiercely with the jackals.
Before the outcome of this sudden war between heaven and earth could be decided, a large black spider with green stripes the size of a water tank flew out of the bushes, spraying out a large piece of white spider silk from behind its buttocks, covering up these jackals and vultures. Below.
The highly poisonous spider silk corroded the hair of jackals and vultures, constantly making "chichi" sounds, and wisps of white smoke spewed out.
The big green-striped spider shook its long legs and raised its head to the sky, making a sharp whistle. The long roar of "squeak" spread far away in the violent storm. The snakes, insects, rats, and ants on several nearby hills all curled up and did not dare to make the slightest sound.
A "hoo" sound broke through the air, and a wooden spear about ten feet long and thick as an arm struck through the air, piercing the head of the big green-striped spider and nailing it to the ground. The body of the big green-striped spider was trembling violently, and its body was still beating instinctively, but life had already left this squirming body.
A dozen men with disheveled hair and rough faces, about ten feet tall, rowed rafts and slowly and cautiously approached the little bumpkin. They happily looked at the twitching big spiders, as well as the immobile jackals and vultures in the vultures' nests!
"Hey, hey!" The strong men laughed, holding their spears with both hands, and jumped from the raft to the hill.
They carefully separated the bushes, carefully looked at the road under their feet, and used wooden spears to pick away the poisonous spider silk wrapped around the bodies of jackals and vultures. The strong men happily carried these huge trophies and stacked them neatly. On the raft.
"Hey!" A strong man suddenly saw a flash of silver light in the corner of his eye. He swung his spear sharply and pointed at the location of the silver light. More than a dozen big men turned around one after another and looked in the direction where the spears were pointing. They caught a glimpse of Lord Shu, who was all wet.
Lord Mouse looked at these strong men, blinked his eyes, then jumped up suddenly, and kept shouting "Zhi Zhi" at these strong men.
The few strong men looked at each other, and then they cautiously walked towards Master Shu.
In a deep pit behind Mr. Shu, there were dozens of fractures all over his body. Chu Tian, who had fallen into a deep coma, was lying awkwardly in the sewage. The heavy rain hit him all over, and the sewage was about to cover his face.
"Hmm!" Several strong men muttered vaguely, and one of them jumped into the pit, grabbed Chu Tian, and jumped up while carrying him.
Lord Shu slithered up to Chu Tian's shoulder, bowed and saluted the group of strong men, with a very humane smile on his face, a very flattering smile, and his four white front teeth were quite eye-catching.
The strong men looked at Master Shu and laughed. A big man stretched out his finger and gently tapped Master Shu's head. They carried Chu Tian and returned to the raft together. They supported the raft and slowly left the hill.
When they passed by several dead trees, they randomly broke off some branches and stuck them on the raft. They stretched out a few bloody animal skins on the branches, and barely made a tent to protect Chu Tian from the wind and rain.
Lord Shu squatted on Chu Tian's chest, watching these big men busy at work, and finally sighed with relief: "Oh, what a bad luck! Fortunately, these big guys look very honest and honest, and they don't look like bad people. Otherwise, they would be terrible." It’s really unlucky!”
Grinding his teeth, Mr. Shu looked around worriedly: "Where did that guy Shui Wuhen fall? Brother Tian was very decisive. It would have been better to kill him with that sword. If he was still alive, There is water on all sides here, and the environment is not much better than in Fallen Star Ocean!"
Shaking his tail, Mr. Mouse smiled bitterly: "What the hell is this place? Mr. Mouse has all his abilities, but he was so overwhelmed that he couldn't move. He was almost trapped by a few poisonous scorpions. Fortunately, Mr. Mouse had a lot of bits and pieces on him. Otherwise, it will really capsize in the gutter.”
"But, what kind of shabby place is this?" Master Shu was at a loss, looking at the boundless water all around and the occasional small hills and hills exposed on the water.
The gray sky, the gray water, the dead trees scattered here and there on the water, and the equally gray and feeble shrubs and weeds on the mountains and hills. This is a depressing and boring place, and Lord Mouse hates it very much.
The raft was moving quickly on the water. Occasionally when it passed a few hills and hills, there would be some rather huge beasts standing at the water's edge, staring fiercely at the people on the raft.
Several times, some big guys jumped up suddenly, trying to jump onto the raft and attack everyone.
However, these strong men were very careful to keep the distance between the raft and these hills. These big guys plunged into the water, and after struggling wildly in the water for a while, they found that their swimming speed could not catch up with the raft, so they swam in frustration. Went back.
After marching forward in this way for three or four hours, when the sky was about to get dark, a flat land appeared on the water ahead.
This piece of flat land is about seven or eight miles long and five or six miles wide. It is surrounded by an earthen fence more than ten feet above the water, and there are wooden fences on it.
There is a small forest on the flat land that is not very tall and not very lush. Some small fields have been opened near the forest, and some ordinary vegetables that do not grow very well are planted on them.
Next to the forest is a small village with walls made of adobe bricks and roofs made of thatch. It looks like it can accommodate two to three thousand people.
