Both of them are still uneasy about the previous danger.
No one knows whether the monster is dead or alive, whether it has taken revenge, and when it will come again?
Change house?
Nowadays, it is freezing and snowy outside, and the snow is as deep as my chest. How can I find it in a short time, not to mention that it may not be safe to change places.
It would be better to dig a deeper and more complete tunnel at the original site.
As soon as Chen Li suggested it, the two of them didn't care about their fatigue.
Continue to work.
…
The two walked out of the basement and rummaged through the surrounding ruins.
Pick up things that are still useful and put them aside.
What kind of bowls, pots, dry firewood...
These are the necessities of life.
Otherwise, I won’t be able to live the next days.
Chen Li's eyes dodge to avoid the pile of vomit composed of corpses.
Even though he had killed a lot of people, he still couldn't look directly at this pile of things and felt faintly nauseated.
"What to do with these corpses?" Chen Li asked.
"It's better to throw it into the yard. It smells weird. Just use the dug soil to bury it." Zhou Hong covered her nose and said.
This is truly an understatement!
In the middle of the night, Chen Li could only bite the bullet and carry the body with Zhou Hong.
These corpses have been corroded beyond recognition. Apart from the male and female, it is no longer possible to identify who is who?
Fortunately, in just a short time, these corpses were almost frozen, and their bodies were hard. After wrapping their hands with rags, they were not stained with much vomit mucus.
After moving the bodies, he immediately 'photographed' a cleaning charm for himself and Zhou Hong.
I couldn't help but smell my hand again.
I don’t know if it has a psychological effect.
A strange smell always lingers on the tip of my nose.
"Let me smell it!" Zhou Hong knew his character, so she grabbed his hand with a sweet smile and sniffed it: "Don't worry, it's no longer smelly!"
Chen Li snorted in mock anger and threw away his hand.
"It's really free, work!"
…
Three days later, at noon.
Chen Li trudged forward through the thick snow that reached his chest.
Although he could use the Lighting Talisman, burning a Lighting Talisman that was worth four low-grade spiritual stones just to save energy on the road was undoubtedly too extravagant. He would rather walk slowly by himself.
Originally, it only took ten minutes to walk slowly.
He walked for nearly an hour, and even with his physical condition, he was out of breath and sweating profusely.
"Bang bang bang!"
Chen Li stepped forward and knocked on the door.
"Zhang Daoyou, are you there?"
Not long after, the door opened.
Revealing a face full of smiles and premature aging.
"Oops, Fellow Daoist Chen, why did you come here in this weather? But we don't have enough talisman skins. Come in quickly, it's so cold outside!" Zhang Yan turned around and shouted into the room:
"My lady, make tea quickly, remember to ask for good spiritual tea."
"Okay, dad!" Zhang Shuniang showed her face and walked briskly to the kitchen.
This fiery enthusiasm made Chen Li a little uncomfortable.
He shook the snow off his robe, stomped his feet and walked in. He smiled and said, "I really need to buy some talisman skins..."
"Then you came at the right time. I have been idle during this period, but I have made a lot of good talisman skins. Let me show you!" Zhang Yan's smile became even more enthusiastic when he heard this.
"Don't worry yet!" Chen Li said helplessly.
"Yes, yes! Look at my impatience. Fellow Daoist Chen, sit down!"
"It's hard to do business in this winter. I plan to buy 450 tickets at a time this time, but I don't know if my friend's inventory is enough?" Chen Li said after he sat down.
This number is actually not much.
He has now reached the fifth level of Qi training, and his spiritual power is no longer what it used to be.
If you draw an ‘evil-proofing talisman’, you can draw three in a row.
You can also draw two consecutive arrow avoidance symbols.
Under normal circumstances, I draw once at noon and again before going to bed at night. I can already draw five talisman in a day.
Four hundred and fifty sheets are enough for three months.
What's more, in the next time, he will start to study the 'Light Body Talisman' again. After a lot of trial and error, the consumption of the talisman will obviously not be small.
"Don't worry, there is enough stock this time!" Zhang Yan said quickly.
Chen Li hesitated in his mind whether to ask Zhang Yan for advice on how to make the 'Light Body Talisman', but considering that he would have to talk about food next, he decided to forget it after thinking about it. The overall situation was more important.
It's better not to be irritating.
Zhang Shuniang quickly brought tea.
Chen Li thanked her, took the tea and took a sip before putting it down. He stopped talking and started talking about what happened some time ago and the main reason for his visit this time.
When Zhang Yan heard this, he was shocked, lost his composure, stood up and said.
"You actually encountered a monster... This is really, really... how did you escape?"
Chen Li sighed and said: "Besides digging a deep hole, what else can I do? Although the person is fine, the house was destroyed by the monster. Now we, the husband and wife, can only live in a hole in the ground.
It’s dark, but fortunately it’s safe.”
"This is indeed a good and safe way..." Zhang Yan's eyes lit up, and then he thought for a moment and said, "I have a lot of food here, so I can give you a little more, but at this price?"
"I'll add 50% to whatever the original purchase price was, fellow Taoist!"
"Okay! Deal."
…
As long as you don't learn talismans from him, Zhang Yan's attitude has always been good.
They also help with door-to-door delivery.
At Chen Li's invitation, he visited the half-finished tunnel again, and then he couldn't sit still and hurried home.
"The food I bought this time can only last half a month!" Zhou Hong took stock of the food she bought and said.
"There is always a lot of food stored for winter. I will go to the nearby neighbors tomorrow to ask." Chen Li said.
…
For several days in a row.
Chen Li visited the surrounding neighbors frequently.
With 'a lot' of spiritual stones thrown around, the process of buying grain at a high price went very smoothly.
There's nothing much to say.
During this period, the expansion of the tunnel did not stop, but it was no longer as continuous as it was at the beginning, day and night.
After more than ten days, the entire project was completely completed.
The new tunnel is twenty meters deep underground.
A fifty-meter-long tunnel extends inside, with two exits. Needless to say, the first exit is located on another street, which is now covered by thick snow.
Once you encounter danger, you can quickly escape this way.
The living area is still located below the original exit.
Chen Li and Zhou Hong opened up a 50-square-meter basement.
After all, if you want to make a fire to cook, you must be close to the exit.
…
During this period of time, the monster beast never appeared again, but Chen Li felt that such a powerful creature would not die so easily.
After all, it is a first-level second-level monster, comparable to a terrifying existence in the foundation-building stage.
Maybe I have learned my lesson and no longer dare to come to this area again, or maybe I just sit in a corner and lick my wounds silently.
At the same time, Chen Li finally had time to study new spells and talismans.
