In the endless wind and snow, the sky and the earth turned into white.
And at the end of the intersection of heaven and earth, there is a sudden black stripe.
When I looked carefully, I realized that it was an army with no end in sight.
But the strange thing is that this endless army with no end in sight and an unknown number of "people" makes no sound at all.
They stood in the wind and snow, watching Shen Qian and others quietly.
No, that's not right... They are not looking at me, but...
Shen Qian suddenly turned his head, and behind him was the direction of Jingcheng.
Indescribable despair and depression rushed over his face. Shen Qian attached his mental power to his eyes, while Yuan You took out his optical binoculars, and both of them saw clearly the appearance of the black army.
"What kind of creature is that?"
Yuan You's voice trembled.
It was a group of "people", but they had no connection with humans at all. The knights in the front row had forest-blue light shining in their eyes, and their skin was covered with a strange gray scale. In his hand is a sharp blade emitting blue light.
The soldiers standing silently behind them all looked like resurrected corpses, without any life at all.
There are even quite a few who even have incomplete limbs and some have their bodies disemboweled.
At a glance, this army has at least tens of thousands of people.
"The ones in front of me...are not weaker than me. My knife is warning me."
Dao Jiu said in a deep voice.
"What you said in front...are you referring to the row of knights?"
Yuan You swallowed and asked in disbelief.
Just because the row of knights riding on undead war horses, at first glance, there may be nearly a hundred people.
One hundred mountains and seas!
What is this concept?
There are no more than ten mountains and seas in Jingcheng, even if there are towers of Babel in the face.
"It's them...but the 'door' is clearly closed. Where did they come out?"
There was deep doubt in Shen Qian's eyes.
"Have you ever seen this kind of creature?" Yuan You heard Shen Qian's whisper and couldn't help but turned around and asked.
"Well, it was just last month, but only one appeared at that time, and that 'door' has been sealed by many powerful people from mountains and seas."
Shen Qian nodded.
He recognized the creatures on horseback at a glance. They were exactly the same as the one he saw in Buya Valley, with only slight differences in appearance.
"I remember that my senior brother called them 'White Walkers'."
"White Walker?" Yuan You murmured, frowning slightly. She always felt that she had heard this name somewhere, but she couldn't remember it at the moment.
"Qian Shen, we need to go back to Jingcheng to warn you. If these strange ghosts are really coming for Jingcheng, at least for now, it seems that there is no reaction from Jingcheng!"
Yuan You suddenly woke up and no longer recalled it, but said seriously.
Shen Qian nodded slightly, but he still had a doubt he didn't express.
If these strange ghosts were obscured by the snow and wind, and appeared unnoticed only dozens of kilometers away from Jingcheng, it would be normal for them to be undetectable in ordinary mountains and seas, then... where is the teacher?
Didn’t the teacher notice it?
Shen Qian has no specific concept of princes, so he doesn't know whether the boss, Gao, knows about this.
He calmed down and took advantage of the fact that the strange ghosts on the hillside had no intention of attacking them yet, so he pulled Yuan You and turned around to leave.
But with this step, Shen Qian was startled, "My vitality..."
Yuan You was confused at first, but after she tried to circulate her vitality herself, her expression changed.
There seemed to be some strange and inexplicable power in the surrounding wind and snow. The severe cold did not invade their bodies, but it was freezing their vitality.
The stiffness that makes them unable to lift will greatly slow down their speed.
In short, they can't walk much faster than ordinary people now.
At this moment, Shen Qian felt a chill on his back. He looked back, only to find that the row of knights who were looking at Jingcheng had turned their gazes down at some point.
Shen Qian can be sure that they have locked onto him.
"Daojiu, can you, take us back!"
Shen Qian said very quickly.
Dao Jiu nodded slightly, and just as he was about to take the two of them into the air, he suddenly remembered a cry-like roar from the clouds.
The three of them looked up at the same time, and saw a huge black shadow penetrating through the clouds in the windy and snowy sky, heading straight for the ground.
It was clearly a Western-style giant dragon, but its whole body was covered with white bones, with only the eyes still retaining some flesh and blood.
And those huge eyes like lanterns also shine with a faint blue light, full of coldness and destructive violence.
Before the three of them could recover, three more roars rang out in succession, and together with the first one, four undead dragons suddenly appeared in the sky.
Not only that, there are countless unknown birds flying out of the clouds.
They also look like horrifying corpses, numbering in hundreds or even thousands, with the potential to cover the sky and the sun.
Shen Qian's heart sank, and an unprecedented sense of crisis spread in his heart.
There is no door in the sky, no road in the earth, and the opponent's power is invincible.
This situation... is really hopeless.
What confused Shen Qian the most was why the system only reacted for a moment and then lost its movement.
Is there any way out?
Shen Qian looked around, but couldn't find a turning point.
"Shen Qian..."
Yuan You seemed to know that she couldn't escape. She held Shen Qian's hand tightly and murmured, "I am so unwilling...I have lived for more than twenty years and I am still a virgin!"
Even in this atmosphere, Shen Qian felt a little dumbfounded when he heard this sentence.
"Roar!"
The White Walkers on the hillside made no movement, but the giant dragon that swept down from the sky came straight towards the three of them, and opened its ferocious mouth a few hundred meters away, with green flames gathering in it. .
"Mr. Shen, you try your best to escape, I will help you break up."
At the critical moment, Dao Jiu's usually honest face turned calm. He smiled, and the nine long knives surrounding him trembled crazily, with blood showing.
Sensing that Dao Jiu was going to fight for his life, Shen Qian felt extremely complicated.
If it was said that Dao Jiu entered into the princely contract for the so-called reward of 500,000 yuan a month, he would not believe it.
At the moment of life and death, what matters most?
And if Dao Jiu escapes on his own, he must be more confident than the two of them.
Although I am usually not very reliable as a bodyguard, at times like this I can really see a person clearly.
... He did not waste his food expenses of more than 100,000 a month in vain.
"It doesn't matter, this time... we will fight side by side."
Shen Qian took a deep breath and gave up the idea of escape.
It's better to fight!
At this moment, Shen Qian was a little surprised. He found that he was not as afraid of death as he thought.
"I'm actually a virgin too."
Shen Qianqian smiled at Yuan You, then took a handful from the other person's collar and whispered, "...So this is how it feels."
Yuan You was stunned for a moment, and after she realized what she was doing, she rolled her eyes at Shen Qian, but after a moment of silence, she chuckled and said, "So this is how it feels to be touched by a man."
Both of them laughed.
Just when the three of them united their thoughts and prepared to fight to the death with the giant dragon whose bad breath spread, there was a sudden roar in the sky.
It was like muffled thunder, but mixed with an indescribable strange friction sound.
The sound was not very loud, but it made the wind and snow in the sky tremble, as if the heaven and earth were shaking.
In Shen Qian's stunned eyes, the giant dragon that was about to spit out the fireball in its mouth seemed to be frightened in some way. It shrank its head and stopped in mid-air tremblingly.
Not only it, but the other three undead dragons hovering in the sky, as well as the countless skeletal birds, all stopped in mid-air and shivered. Many of them even didn't dare to flap their wings anymore, and just fell straight up. Come down.
This inexplicably funny scene did not make Shen Qian and the other three laugh, because besides Shen Qian, Yuan You and Dao Jiu were also trembling uncontrollably.
Originally, Shen Qian also felt a kind of fear from the bottom of his bones, which was completely suppressed from the life level, but the system quickly responded and helped Shen Qian resist the lingering sense of awe.
As a result, Shen Qian became the only person present who could still stand upright.
Including the strange ghosts on the hillside in the distance, they no longer look like sculptures. They look around blankly, with instinctive fear on their faces.
"Fa...what happened?"
Dao Jiu tried to control the trembling of his body, but found that he couldn't do it at all. He asked angrily and aggrievedly.
Just as Shen Qian was about to shake his head, indicating that he didn't know, the sky suddenly turned dark.
No, that's not right...that's not the sky...
Rather, there is something above the clouds.
Shen Qian stared blankly at the endless black shadow in the sky. The reason why he knew it wasn't darkness was because... the black shadow was moving.
Yes, just like water flow, black shadows invade little by little, covering this side of the sky.
The friction and muffled thunder became more intense. When the black shadow completely appeared above, the surrounding area had become dim.
Then the black shadow paused and slowly pressed down.
It looked like it was lowering its body and looking over.
So Shen Qian saw... its shadow.
The sky was like a pool of lake water, and Shen Qian and others seemed to be standing at the bottom of the lake. Shen Qian could clearly see its reflection.
Shock and curiosity completely occupied Shen Qian's heart.
That's... a big snake.
Its shadow is a little blurry, but the extremely huge inverted triangular head is unique to snakes, and is somewhat similar to the candle snake we just saw.
Just in size, it is hundreds of millions of times larger than an ordinary candle snake!
Shen Qian saw the two suns, and immediately reacted to overwork, those were its eyes.
Shen Qian also saw endless scarlet, but the scarlet started as a line, and then expanded at an extremely exaggerated speed.
This is...its mouth!
Shen Qian reacted suddenly.
For no reason, he recalled a boast that Zhu Deyong, the manager of Jiuzhou Martial Arts Hall, had made with him.
"Its figure covers the sky and the sun, and its body is entrenched on the ground. Its head reaches above the clouds when its head is opened. When its mouth opens, only scarlet remains between the sky and the earth..."
It turns out that Lao Zhu was not bragging.
Shen Qian woke up.
This shadow is most likely the legendary big snake, the big snake... that swallowed up his hometown, Lucheng, in one bite!
Although he only saw a blurry reflection, Shen Qian was extremely shocked.
Because the true form of this snake is probably more terrifying than what Zhu Deyong described.
What kind of existence is this?
"Destroy!"
Just when Shen Qian's thoughts were stagnant, he heard a hoarse and extremely cold voice.
The tone of the voice was strange, but the majesty contained in it was as if it were made by heaven.
Then Shen Qian realized that this was snake language!
It's the big snake talking.
But... what does "destroy" mean?
The next moment, Shen Qian understood.
Because a skeleton bird that happened to fall near them suddenly and silently turned into ashes.
Puff puff puff!
This was just the beginning. Soon, all the skeleton birds on the snowfield, including the four giant dragons, were turned into ashes in an instant.
The invisible aura of destruction that did not tolerate any resistance was still spreading, and the White Walkers on the hillside did not even have time to escape, and were also reduced to ashes one by one in an instant.
Dao Jiu and Yuan You both turned into sculptures, looking at this scene in disbelief.
The anger in Dao Jiu's heart disappeared in the blink of an eye. Even the ghosts in the mountains and seas were powerless to resist, so he was no different from an ant.
So Dao Jiu put down his reserve and began to tremble with peace of mind.
Shen Qian had been feeling the invisible aura of destruction. After he was sure that the three of him would not be affected, he breathed a sigh of relief.
And the big snake above the clouds continued to move forward after leaving such a word, as if it was really just passing by, killing a group of miscellaneous fish and then continued on its way.
Shen Qian stared at the black shadow disappearing like flowing water, his expression a little startled.
I have to say that the scene just now left an indelible impression on him.
He always thought... no, in everyone's minds, Shanhai was already a truly strong man.
But what does everything that just happened mean?
What realm does that big snake exist in?
Prince?
Can a prince really be so strong...
Countless confusions lingered in Shen Qian's heart. He had never been so eager to become stronger and see the true appearance of this world.
"Mountains and seas, in a sense, are just the beginning."
A gentle voice suddenly sounded in Shen Qian's ears.
Shen Qian was stunned for a moment and then turned around in surprise, and saw the boss Gao standing next to him.
He was still wearing a long white suit, standing in the snow with his hands behind his hands, his deep gaze following the big snake away above the clouds, leaving only Shen Qian's handsome profile.
"Teacher!" Shen Qian finally relaxed completely. After saluting, he remembered what the boss Gao had just said and quickly raised his head again, "Teacher, what do you mean by what you just said? Mountains and seas are just the beginning?"
"You will know in the future." Boss Gao had no intention of explaining.
Shen Qian couldn't ask any more questions, but he immediately remembered something and said in surprise: "Teacher, where is that big snake going?"
With the terrifying strength of that big snake, no matter where it goes, it will only be a disaster.
Gao Wenyuan shook his head and smiled: "It doesn't matter, it is actually walking in the dimensional wall. It just cast a shadow and did not really come to the earth."
Shen Qian was stunned, and then shocked. A shadow across the dimensional wall was so strong, so how exaggerated is the strength of this big snake?
"Teacher, what on earth is this big snake?" Shen Qian couldn't help but ask.
"It has many names, but in ancient Chinese legends, there is a mythical creature that is very similar to it, so we usually call it that."
"What is it?" Shen Qian was even more curious.
Gao Wenyuan had a look of reminiscence on his face, but he didn't know what he was feeling, and then he uttered two words.
