Chapter 15 The Law of the Jungle
One floor is three meters high and three floors are nine meters high. The centipede standing in front of you is less than one-third of its entire body length. This centipede is more than 30 meters long.
Thirty meters long, four or five meters wide, the body is fan-shaped, the back is bright red, and the belly is full of foot. A pair of bright red and eye-catching big pliers are grown next to the mouth, and drops of sticky green liquid dripped from it, making it look so ferocious that it is terrifying.
When Wang Man saw the appearance of the centipede, he did not hesitate at all. He grabbed the hand of his mother next to him and jumped down from the front door of the wooden carriage. The target of the centipede attack was the huge lizard. At this time, the lizard was frightened and was already crazy, so it was naturally no longer safe.
"Bang" and he jumped to the ground. He saw the three scholars who jumped down first and had a move with the centipede. He pulled out a large steel knife from his waist and slashed the centipede's head in the air. Then the true energy burst out, leaving a faint knife mark on it.
"Run quickly, I'm no match for this monster!" A sword was slashed out, and then the roar of the teacher about "escape", which shocked Wang Man, who was about to see the Qi training man fight against the monster.
He had not thought of running away at the first time, but he thought that the three scholars should have good military strength, but he forgot that this is the real world - in this world, monsters and wild beasts are extremely smart, and will not take the initiative to attack people or convoys that he obviously cannot beat like those novels he had read in his previous life.
This is very simple.
Not to mention monsters, even the ordinary forest beasts on Earth in the previous life are like this. The beasts never attack things that they are not sure of defeating. Almost all jungle species have a natural foresight of danger. If they meet something that is not in his food chain, they will tempt it again and again before launching an attack.
The wild beasts on the small earth know to seek profit and avoid harm. However, under the influence of this wild continent countless times larger than the earth, these wild beasts and monsters are extremely smart under the influence of larger and richer jungle laws. At this moment, they are naturally very sure that they dare to attack the lizard cart.
I figured this out in a flash. Wang Man saw the three scholars in the air swaying in the air, and then took advantage of the reaction force of the knife to fall directly into the ground in the air, running forward without looking back - the true energy of his body erupted, bent countless artemisia.
The centipede seemed to be aroused by the knife on her head. After being hit, she actually gave up the giant lizard, leaned down and chased the three scholars with a hundred feet in one go.
Originally, the centipede's body was huge, but now it was so light and fast when running. The fan-shaped body and the artemisia are like a glider that can fly in the wind. The centipede just needs to gently tap the grass between the soil, which makes him look like a flying figure, fast and silent.
Listening the rustling sound in front of him gradually faded away, Wang Man no longer hesitated, chose a direction opposite to the centipede, took his mother's hand and ran away.
Punching into the artemisia taller than others, Wang Man and Wang Qing rushed and ran for more than half an hour. At this time, the sky was completely dark - the surroundings and in the distance were full of the cries of insects and beasts - the night outside was extremely dangerous.
There are too many monsters and beasts on the wild continent, countless, much more than humans, and they cannot be cleaned up at all. Like most predators on the earth, it is a paradise for hunters at night. Therefore, few people dare to leave their tribes or around the city dozens of miles at night.
Because it's too dangerous.
He took his mother's hand and ran deep into the grass. Wang Man felt safe and stopped, turned around and asked his mother, "Mom, have you ever been to Shanlong City?"
"I've been with your father once, before you were born." Wang Qing nodded.
"Then do you remember the road? This wilderness is so dangerous, we'd better get into the city."
"Well, you can roughly remember the direction clearly... But we don't have the stone coins to enter the city, nor the pass tokens issued by the Wang family's inner palace, so we can't enter the city." Wang Qing knew the situation in Shanlong City quite clearly.
"What should I do?" Wang Man thought for a while and asked, "If it doesn't work, I'll go back and take a look?"
"The centipede shouldn't have left yet." Wang Man's father used to be a tribal beast-headed warrior, and Wang Qing was quite clear about hunting, so she was not panicked at this moment: "The centipede came out to hunt, so it would leave after it was eaten. The eating time of this centipede will not be long, but we don't know how long it will chase the third class, so we should wait and see before talking about it."
"Yes." Wang Man nodded, then chose a safe place to wait with his mother for more than an hour, and then turned back.
When I returned here, there was nothing left in the place - only the ground was covered with broken wood.
Following the direction of the broken wood residue falling, Wang Man and Wang Qing found the corpse of the big lizard. The corpse was gone, and only the skin covered with scales was piled on the ground, looking very disgusting.
"Is the way to eat when the digestive juice is injected into the body?" Frowning, Wang Man walked to the lizard skin and looked at it - he found some decorations in the carriage below - but most of them were damaged, leaving only an iron dagger that was still intact.
"Mom, how much can this thing be sold?" Wang Man asked with a dagger.
"If the iron tools are used, it can sell hundreds of stone coins, but the city gate guards do not collect real items." Wang Qing shook his head and also looked for some clues on the ground. "The artemisia here has been suppressed. The three scholars should have run in this direction, but at his speed we can't catch up. Just wait and see. If nothing happened to him, he should come back."
After hearing Wang Qing's words, Wang Man nodded, and his heart was filled with thoughts.
In the Wang tribe, the identities of slaves and civilians are different, but if there is no brand mark on their faces, in this case, if the master dies, he can change his identity and change his place where no one knows him and become a free person.
But the main premise of all this is that you have the ability to gain a foothold in this world.
It is not easy to go to another tribe and be accepted by others, but to walk through wilderness and forests requires strength - few ordinary people will leave their tribe and go to other places - even if they are slaves.
If Wang Man is alone now, he hopes to follow the three scholars to the inner palace - one is to see the cultivation environment of Qi practitioners in the inner palace, and the most important thing is to inquire about his father's news.
