In fact, after she 'understood' Daozi's great plan, she took the initiative to ask Ying to accompany him. The reason was that without Daozi's magical power, it was difficult to move in this dangerous wasteland, and she wanted to accompany him for protection.
Of course Cheng An rejected her for two reasons.
First, as the saying goes, distance creates beauty.
Because everyone was not familiar with each other, he was able to frighten the other party, and Daozi did not have a "big change in temperament."
But once she is with you and we get along with each other day and night, no matter how thoughtful a person is, he can't help but reveal some of his original living habits.
After staying together for a long time, maybe one day, this powerful and inhumane female killer will suddenly wake up and find that her son has already been taken over by a dove, so why shouldn't she directly kill her enemy on the spot?
Only if I can let you follow me is there a ghost.
Another reason is that the coordinates in front of Cheng An show a time.
Countdown:22:35:14↓
In other words, after one day and one night, his dream trip will end, and he himself will return to the real world.
So what will happen to this body after it returns?
Will time in this world stand still until the next star gate opens?
The host's own soul will still be summoned again, and he will have corresponding behaviors and actions in front of the next star gate, which no one can predict.
How dare Cheng An carry a time bomb with him when the future is uncertain.
He could tell that the identity of the female killer was unusual, but if the other party didn't tell her, of course he couldn't ask, so he left it at that.
"It's so terrible. I hope we never meet again."
Cheng An put on his thermostatic suit, endured the pungent and strong smell of blood, and cleaned the carriage and cab.
Then, he dug a pit in the loess on the left, put the bodies of the four dead bodyguards in, poured some gasoline, and burned them on the spot.
There were several spare sets of clothes in the car. Cheng An put on an ordinary coat and hid his valuable pink jade bracelet in the cabinet, making himself look simple and ordinary, not so dazzling, except for his appearance.
Afterwards, he will go to the Sui Tian Realm alone!
With this truck as a safe haven, you can reach your destination as long as you keep following the sky.
The cab of the truck is very simple and uncomplicated, and does not have many auxiliary functions. But for Cheng An, who had only driven an automatic transmission in his previous life, this was a challenge.
With no one to guide him and having to fumble by himself, he kept repeating the cumbersome operations of turning off and igniting the engine.
After driving stumblingly for more than half an hour, I was finally able to drive normally.
A novice driver, a "bad car" that had killed four people, was just swaying, maintaining a tortuous speed of about 40 yards, driving alone in the two-pole reversal place.
"I love you walking alone in a dark alley...I love the way you turn off the engine...I love you standing up to the roadblock...and refusing to give in..."
Accompanied by the churning sound of the motor, children's songs occasionally sounded, floating forward in the wasteland.
A lone traveler in the frosty sky, the vast sea is covered with hundreds of feet of ice!
…
Unknowingly, it was getting late and darkness enveloped the earth.
A full moon rises, and under the bright moonlight, the night is as bright as day, but the demonic wind is getting stronger and stronger, making the car body creak and whine.
Countdown:17:41:02↓
"It's been four hours of driving. If we reach the Chuitian Realm 200 kilometers away, it shouldn't be far, right?"
Cheng An tried his best to relieve his sore muscles and rubbed his eyes.
Although it was difficult to walk in Yeluqi District, he had no intention of stopping because he was about to starve to death.
What was depressing was that, except for some drinks, there was no food prepared at all in the car. He had to rush to the Chuitian Realm early to look for food.
However, life without navigation and without a 'progress bar' to view is extremely painful.
He drank some water, but this could not suppress the hunger that was gradually rising. He only felt that his stomach was getting more and more uncomfortable.
"If I had known better, I wouldn't have let the female killer go. Being hacked to death is better than being starved to death."
Cheng An thought with some regret. At this moment, he completely understood that the saying "food is the most important thing for the people" is really the greatest truth in the world.
At this time, there were signs of human activity ahead, and there was some light illumination.
"I hope I'm not a hunter. If I meet a bandit, I'll be doomed... But in such a dangerous environment, good and bad people will be treated equally and easily die here. Normal bandits would not choose such a place to set up camp on the mountain."
.”
Cheng An hesitated for a moment and chose to continue driving.
Not long after, a caravan consisting of more than a dozen people came into view.
There are four very old dump trucks, each about 11 meters in length, covered with tarpaulins, parked on the road.
Relying on these dump trucks as windbreaks, several thick tents were set up on the ground, several bonfires were lit, and iron pots were placed on them. The rich aroma of rice and meat filled the place.
Smelling the aroma of food in the air, Cheng An's stomach growled unsatisfactorily. He was extremely hungry.
"This should be a caravan. I'll exchange some food with them. It shouldn't be a big problem."
Cheng An looked under the car seat next to him. There were many items that could be exchanged for money, including four watches and several gold and silver jewelry.
After stuffing his things into the car seat box, he slowly slowed down and stopped in front of the temporary camp.
This naturally attracted the other party's attention.
After a while, two strong men came out and came over.
Cheng An noticed that their clothes were rather special, like half a down jacket and half a raincoat stitched together. The chest and abdomen were bulging with something stuffed in them. It looked like a simplified version of a thermostatic suit.
After the two men approached, they cautiously walked around Cheng An's truck before approaching.
After Cheng An rolled down the window, one of the men took a look at his appearance and hesitated obviously for a moment before speaking: "Sir... sir, what can I do for you? We are building a restaurant, your car can be taken from
Just turn around and it won't delay your journey."
As for another younger man, he looked inside the car window for a while. When he found that Cheng An was the only one, his eyes stayed on him for a moment in surprise, but he quickly stopped.
Sometimes, being handsome can also be a deterrent. For example, when strangers see such a handsome young man driving alone on a dangerous frontier, they will instinctively be wary.
Cheng An estimated the other party's age, forty or fifty years old, with oriental appearance, and said with an apologetic smile: "That's right, I'm going to the Heavenly Realm. I'm tired and hungry all the way here.
When I see you making a fire and cooking here, I can't help but want to beg for food from you."
The man looked around: "Are you the only one?"
"No, I still have a few friends, but they set off earlier than me and went to the Sui Tian Realm to wait for me. It seems that I will be late for a while." Cheng An's expression was sincere, implicitly hinting that the other party was not a person himself.
people.
"We are leaving after a short rest. We haven't prepared much food..." The man looked embarrassed.
Cheng An handed over an inconspicuous watch just in time: "Sorry, I don't have any money. Can I use this to pay for a meal?"
The middle-aged man's eyes lit up and he said: "Okay, okay, that's completely enough. Thank you for your kindness."
It seems that he is very satisfied with the watch. Well, I am a bit careless. I don’t know the specific value of these things in this world...
Cheng An said calmly: "Thank you very much."
He turned off the car, put on his thermostatic suit, and followed the two men into their camp.
After a quick glance, Cheng An knew that there were thirteen people in the camp, half male and female, ten middle-aged men and women, and only one male and two young girls among the younger ones. They were all looking at Cheng An curiously.
look.
The middle-aged man ordered his wife to serve Cheng Ansheng a bowl of steaming broth. You could see cooked potatoes and meat bones tumbling in it.
With a bowl of hot soup in his stomach, Cheng An felt like he was alive again.
Several people in the camp were much less wary of him and began to chat with him cautiously. Slowly, everyone became familiar with him.
The terms of conversation with each other also changed from Mr., Madam, and Your Excellency to uncle, aunt, and little brother.
The two young girls looked at Cheng An's face the whole time, as if they were curious about him and couldn't take their eyes away.
From the conversation, Cheng An learned that they were residents of the Chuitian Realm, and the five middle-aged men were all veterans.
No wonder a few people started a business business with their wives and children.
The trucks carried tea and cloth, which are specialties of Kowloon, as well as some fragile handicrafts, glass products, etc.
During this period, Cheng An also gathered some information about the Sui Tian Realm, and gained a little bit.
Chuitianjing is a city located on the border of the Federation. It is located in the transportation hub of the mainland. There is a mixture of good and bad people in the city. There are people from all over the world. I heard that there are many fugitives hiding here.
The federal military's control here is very weak, but fortunately there are three major churches, namely the Church of Machinery, the Church of Life, and the Church of War, stationed there, so it is relatively stable.
Cheng An is naturally most interested in these churches, and they are the purpose of his trip.
After all, he is a Taoist who came to seek refuge.
What is currently known is that theocracy is supreme in the Federation, and there are twelve Orthodox churches in the country.
As for how to get in touch with the extraordinary beings of the divine blood path, Cheng An is still confused and plans to go to the Sui Tian Realm to explore first.
He has no idea now, but at least he cannot go directly to see the Archbishop who came to meet him.
What to do specifically, Cheng An currently has too little information and has not yet thought about it.
His initial plan was to find a way to join the church on his own when he arrived at the Sui Tian Realm, and study what the Divine Blood Path was like.
Unless absolutely necessary, it would be too unsafe not to come into contact with that enigmatic and extraordinary person.
After three bowls of broth, Cheng An felt that he was almost done, so he stood up to leave and asked casually: "How do the three major churches recruit believers?"
When the boss of the motorcade heard this, he suddenly slapped his thigh and said, "So you want to join the church? That's easy. I and my wife are both believers in the Church of God of War. Why don't you come with us?
When you reach the Heavenly Realm, we will recommend you to the church to join."
"But I'm from Kowloon, won't this have any impact?" Cheng An asked.
"You can rest assured that our God will not refuse the lamb that runs to Him. Moreover, a young and devout believer like you may be able to condense the blood of God and become a noble priest in the future." His wife said enviously.
said.
"Is there such a thing?" Cheng An was surprised.
He was originally worried that he would be caught as a spy if he went there, but now it seems that there is no need to worry about this.
Thinking about it, Cheng An held the team boss's hand and said seriously: "Thank you uncle for clarifying my doubts. If there is anything I can repay, please feel free to tell me."
Others in the convoy looked at this scene with envy. They were all veterans, and they could tell at a glance that this young man had an unusual background and was definitely not the kind of person a poor family could raise.
The boss of the team smiled honestly: "This is also to contribute to the church, and I am embarrassed to ask for compensation. So, if you don't mind, let the two girls in our team go to your car to take shelter from the wind.
The environment in our car is not that comfortable, and they are already sitting very hard."
"Forehead……"
Cheng An thought about how many people had died in his carriage, but after such a long time, the smell should have dissipated, so he agreed without hesitation: "There is no problem."
While they were talking, the two girls who had been sitting raised their heads and looked at Cheng An steadily, their eyes warm and excited.
Cheng An smiled at them and turned to open the door.
The two girls also smiled behind him.
The corners of his mouth curled back in a smile, and he opened his lips to reveal a set of yellow, sharp and fine teeth.
