After an astonishing roar, there was a series of piercing screams.
The sound is a bit like fingernails scratching glass, which makes people feel panicked and a feeling of chest tightness and shortness of breath.
Lin Mo looked through the window and still looked at the sky in the distance, feeling moved for the first time.
There was obviously nothing there, but it was as if he was looking at something terrifying, without even blinking.
But the noise went away just as quickly as it came.
It disappeared almost in an instant. If the carriage hadn't been tumbling around and the wailing passengers were still there, people would have thought it was an auditory hallucination.
Not long after, someone who looked like a flight attendant came out of the carriage with a pale face, and began to comfort everyone, and handed out drinks such as honey water.
They came up and asked Lin Mo what they wanted. Ma Tianbao asked for a glass of lemonade, and Wang Shouyi ordered milk. Lin Mo asked for nothing.
At this time, there was also a lot of discussion in the carriage, talking about what the scene just now was.
Some people say that there is some amazing beast in the mountains, roaring in the mountains and forests, spreading wildness.
Some people said that there was a powerful martial artist. An unknown master passed by and sang loudly. He noticed the people on the ground and stopped immediately.
There were many different opinions and no answer was obtained, but it did make people gathered from all over the world know a lot about it. Even if the bullock cart restarted, the excitement would not stop.
At this time, Lin Mo glanced at Wang Shouyi, who was holding a glass of milk with his head drooped, and then at Ma Tianbao, who had a solemn expression, and couldn't help but say something.
"Brother Ma, do you know what happened just now?"
He lowered his voice so that the people in the cubicle could hear him.
When he heard Lin Mo's question, Wang Shouyi, who was cowering with a quail beside him, also looked over curiously.
Ma Tianbao's face became a little surprised:
"Brother Lin, are you really from out of town?"
"Exactly, to be honest, I have been traveling in the mountains and forests during this period, and the news channels are somewhat blocked." Lin Mo said frankly without hiding anything.
Ma Tianbao nodded, which confirmed part of his original conjecture, and explained softly:
"The phenomenon just now has happened a lot in the Huaiping area recently. To be honest, it should have appeared for the first time half a month ago. At the beginning, it attracted the attention of many experts, but nothing was found.
Later, a special person summed up the pattern and found that it mainly appeared in remote areas of Huaiping. The source of the sound was unknown, but the impact was only for that moment, and the harm was not too great, so we indulged."
He paused, his expression a little complicated, "The Great Zhou Dynasty officially named it 'Sound of Beasts'."
"I heard that this noise also appeared in other counties in Huaiping a few days ago. I don't know if it is a blessing or a curse."
After he finished speaking, he added another sentence and sighed.
"It shouldn't be a blessing. There is no such thing as a blessing that deafens people and makes them vomit." Wang Shouyi was covering his ears with his hands. After listening carefully, he looked uncomfortable.
Lin Mo nodded in agreement. Although the oxcart had restarted, his eyes were still focused on the sky outside the window.
The sound just now was almost equivalent to some kind of sonic secret technique, which could resonate with the human body at a strange frequency.
If it continues for much longer, not to mention ordinary people, even warriors in the physical realm and the destiny realm will be shocked to the point of internal bleeding.
However, this world, like the previous world, has many unsolved mysteries.
It's just that part of it is the true creation of heaven and earth, and part of it is related to some high-quality warriors, just like the Qingfeng plague.
Once this kind of thing is not handled well, it will bring trouble to yourself.
Therefore, the situation did not escalate, and it was human nature to let it go. If it were him, he would not have taken care of it if he had not really hit his head.
In this world, it is actually very good if you can take care of yourself and the people around you sometimes.
If he really had to take care of everything, he would no longer be a human being. He would have ascended to the Western Heaven and become a Buddha or a Bodhisattva.
"So, in today's world, the best thing to do is to find a more stable place to stay as soon as possible. No matter whether it is a blessing or a curse, there is no chance of blessing or misfortune. It can only be called upon by one's own initiative. If one has a strong waist, there is nothing to be afraid of."
Ma Tianbao sighed.
"It seems that Brother Ma also got some gossip." Lin Mo's eyes flashed and he sighed.
"It's natural. Lin Yu's Universalism has not been solved. Another black Buddhism has emerged in Wutong County. It is even more ferocious. I heard that it directly conquered Mulin County and massacred tens of thousands of people. In addition, various places
Frequent animal disasters,
People who are a little more sensitive to the current situation have actually noticed the prelude to the coming storm. Otherwise, why are there so many martial arts warriors in the carriage?"
Ma Tianbao looked at Lin Mo, slightly serious, "Brother Lin, don't worry about my harsh words. At this time, if there is nothing to do in Huaiping, it is best to really join some forces like the Six Families and Thirteen Sects. Although at the beginning
The treatment is not that good, but in the long run it is safer anyway.
And it’s not that ugly when you eat.”
When he spoke later, his voice was very low.
"Loyalty is harsh but good for action." Lin Mo didn't take it seriously, "I wonder what Brother Ma is planning to do when he returns to Huaiping this time?"
"It's the same as really looking for a place to stay. Of course, my family has some conditions and they have found a relationship for me, which is just a formality." Ma Tianbao replied, a little embarrassed.
Lin Mo understood and did not ask further questions. He just put a label on him that the family had extraordinary power.
Then the ox-cart continued to move forward, and the three of them continued to chat while riding.
Among them, Wang Shouyi asked a lot of questions. After realizing that Lin Mo and the two were relatively friendly, he had the courage to pretend to be casual and asked some common sense questions about martial arts.
This kind of timidity and caution, trying desperately to learn from the surrounding environment, reminded Lin Mo of the time when he was on Earth, when he left home to study in college.
The first time I enter a big city, the first time I take the subway, take the elevator, or even the first time I have a dinner party to eat hairy crabs, I am still the same cautious and careful. I watch what others do, and then I follow suit, pretending to be familiar, and maintaining
one's own self-esteem.
Therefore, he did not hide his secrets, and told him all the basic things, and even helped him solve some doubts about martial arts.
The journey after that was uneventful, and before we knew it, we arrived at Huaiping City.
At the end of the official road, an extremely majestic city really appeared in everyone's eyes. The sunlight shone on the city wall of nearly thirty meters, and the shadow it cast was shocking.
In the carriage alone, Lin Mo heard no less than ten gasps of air, all of them from outside the city.
Of course, it's no wonder they were like this. Even Lin Mo, who had already experienced the visual bombardment of high-rise buildings in his previous life, couldn't help but look sideways at first.
Looking around, one can see endless city walls that never end, and the tall city walls cast shadows. Compared with the steel forests on Earth that give people an infinite sense of technology, this kind of city wall made of bricks and stones is even more majestic.
Before they actually reached the city gate, groups of convoys and horse teams were lined up in a long line, which shows how amazing its daily cargo throughput is.
There are dedicated stations for oxcarts, so there is no need to queue up.
Soon, the bus arrived at the stop and most people got off.
After paying a certain entry fee and verifying your identity, you can officially enter the city.
As soon as he stepped into the city gate, Lin Mo couldn't help but feel a little emotion on his face. When he came face to face, just outside, the streets were crowded with people. He could only feel the sound of the wind blowing by his ears, and even the noise of human voices.
There are people everywhere, many of them carrying knives and swords.
Even ordinary people have some traces of martial arts on their bodies.
This is the great city of Huaizhou, the capital of martial arts, Huaiping.
It has a prosperity that neither Linyu County nor Ningyang County can compare with.
While Lin Mo looked at the big city with a scrutinizing gaze, Wang Shouyi on the side was much more at a loss.
Whether it's the traffic, the rural villages where chickens and dogs chat, or even the county town that thinks it's prosperous enough, nothing can compare with Huaiping.
What did he see?
I saw a big man riding a lion and an old woman holding a python. Those terrifying mountain beasts in the mountains and forests, whose appearance means death, were allowed to be held by people and behaved well.
Most of the passers-by are strong and have bright eyes. Most of them are martial arts practitioners, and their temperament is not low.
Even a child walking through the crowd knocked him back two steps.
This rare prosperity in the eyes of others is so disturbing to others.
He subconsciously looked at Lin Mo and Ma Tianbao beside him.
Brother Ma, who seemed to him to have a superior family background, opened his hands as if to announce his arrival.
Brother Lin, who like him came from out of town, looked around with his hands behind his back, watching the people coming and going.
He looked like a countryman who had just entered the city and was curious about everything. The only difference was that his face was not uneasy or uneasy at all, but seemed to have noticed his gaze. The man turned his head and smiled at him:
"If you don't find a suitable place to live, you might as well find a place to stay with me first."
Lin Mo said softly.
This simple sentence made this eight-foot man so excited that his legs almost gave out.
It was simply more exciting than when I went up the mountain for the first time, picked up a rabbit from someone else's trap, put it in my arms, and walked in a hurry, and was about to get home.
"Thank you, Brother Lin." Wang Shouyi nodded happily.
He wanted to step forward and hug his good brother who was a head taller than him, but he still held back.
Ma Tianbao on the side was a little surprised and looked at Lin Mo with a somewhat different look.
In this world, there are not many people who can do this if they meet by chance.
No matter what, people may not want to be a good person, but they are very willing to get along with good people.
The three of them walked together and walked two streets together before they parted ways.
Along the way, Lin Mo generally learned a lot about Huaiping City.
For example, although the city is not clearly divided into inner and outer cities, the city is divided into circles starting from the center of the city and outwards.
Among them, the closer to the city center, the better the city is in terms of prosperity and security.
Of course, the more land and space becomes more expensive, the more rare it becomes.
There are many forces in the city, among which the martial arts gangs are the most numerous. The closer the address is to the center of the city, the more powerful the forces are.
For example, Lingxi Villa, a subordinate force of Lingtai Sect, is located in Lingmiaofang, which is equivalent to the second ring road.
The white horse is gone, Huaiping City, July.
It is the hottest month in July.
The sun like a fireball hung high in the sky, reflecting the already thin clouds red. Of course, what was even redder was the face of the martial artist who was still basking in the sun to strengthen his body in such a weather.
In Lingmiaofang in the city, there is a courtyard with the word "Lingxi" hanging above the door.
Inside the courtyard, there are continuous rockeries and running water that decorate the environment, and there is also a spacious martial arts field placed in it.
At this time, there were more than ten martial artists wearing high-end short fighting uniforms in the field, training individually.
Some people were boxing, and some were doing leg exercises. They looked very scattered.
But if you observe carefully, you will find that each one of them has extremely powerful qi and blood. They are actually masters of the destiny realm who hide their qi and blood and concentrate on their bodies.
"Brother Lin, with this Vajra Step move, you can see where I didn't move well."
A waxy voice sounded next to Lin Mo.
He stopped what he was doing, casually picked up a towel to wipe the sweat on his body, and looked at the woman beside him.
She was a woman in her late twenties, close to thirty, but her appearance was relatively young, no different from an ordinary girl in her early twenties, with wheat-colored skin, a ponytail, and she was as athletic as a female leopard.
This person's name was Huang Wan, and he was from another place like him. After arriving in Huaiping, he chose to study at Lingxi Villa.
It is said that his family is not weak and is one of the best in the local area. However, he was dissatisfied with his parents' orders and married a more powerful but delicate and frail sickly man. He left home directly to Huaiping to practice martial arts.
Not lacking in talent, Twenty-Sixty-Seven made a breakthrough in establishing a destiny, successfully passed the examination, and entered the Lingxi Villa, a special adult education class similar to that of the university in his previous life.
After completing the basic skills of any three Lingtai three channels, you can go to the real mountain gate, formally pass the assessment, and register to join the sect after success.
After accidentally discovering that the address was adjacent to Linmo, we spontaneously became familiar with it.
"This trick of "Lingtai Sudden Appearance" requires speed, but it is not deliberately seeking speed, but more adaptability. When the enemy is unpredictable, the body falls into an unpredictable place. I think it is best to learn in actual combat.
Just by practicing on your own, it’s easy to get weirder the more you practice.”
Lin Mo explained in a low voice.
After saying that, he gave a signal to him.
He turned around, and the next moment, Huang Wan appeared directly behind him. He was so frightened that he subconsciously hit Lin Mo with a back fist.
As soon as he made a move, he was immediately caught and unable to move at all.
"Practice hard and think more. After all, you are from the Lingtai Sect. Compared with what you have learned in the clan, even the basic 'skills' cannot be learned overnight."
he said softly.
After saying that, he went back to practicing by himself, ignoring Huang Wan who was standing aside.
It has been more than a month since Lin Mo came to Huaiping.
After entering the city, he directly rented a courtyard in Jing'an Fang, about the 4th and 5th Ring Road. After settling everything, he inquired about the information, found Lingxi Villa, and successfully signed up.
Originally, he wanted to go directly to Lingtai Sect, but since he had no credentials and couldn't find a place, after thinking about it, he simply decided to take the exam step by step.
After all, such a large-scale promotion mechanism is very transparent and not too difficult, and he is not in a hurry for any martial arts secrets, he just needs stability.
And here in Huaiping, he indeed found the stability he wanted.
He lived continuously for more than a month without encountering any trouble. During the day, he randomly practiced a few martial arts of the Lingtai lineage he chose to lay the foundation. At night, when he went home, he practiced his own natal sutra and studied the medicinal seals.
During this period, I also established contact with the Lin Family and learned that the city there was also developing healthily. The Lin Family City, which was just started before departure, has already begun to take shape.
It can be said that everything is developing in a good direction.
