Chapter 21: The Ruined Small Town
Of all the senses, the wood element’s perception was the most obvious. Seeing the five or six grapevines accelerating their growth and splitting, along with many grapes, made Sang Chu can’t help but smile.
Sang Chu took out two more Spirit Stone Jades and continued to absorb.
Mu Xue sat bored in the kitchen, gnawing on watermelon, eating grapes, and also boiled many chestnuts.
Tu You held the bowl of chestnuts, eating them one by one without stopping.
Mu Xue saw that his mouth was full of chestnut crumbs and couldn’t bear to look: “Can’t you be more refined?!”
“Nonsense, you’re refined, who was wolfing down food before!”
Mu Xue stubbornly denied: “It was you, it was you, it was you, you big bald guy!”
“Hmph!”
Tu You turned around and faced away from her, even childishly pouting his red butt and letting out a loud fart at her!
“You’re crazy! See if I don’t beat you to death, you big bald guy, don’t run!”
Mu Xue, furious, grabbed Tu You’s big ears. Who knew his ears were so slippery, and he flew away in a short while.
Tu You: “Give up, A Chu said that before she and Lu Min Feng come out, you can’t be let out! La la la!!!”
“Hmph! I’m going into seclusion to cultivate!”
Under the Blood Moon of the eternal night, the dilapidated Small Town appeared particularly eerie and terrifying.
Mu Xue was naturally timid. After cultivating Mental Power, her hearing and senses both improved.
Hearing the roars of zombies all around and the whistling of the wind through the ruined walls, she shivered.
“Sang Xiao Chu, why can’t we turn on the Hovercar or the Optical Computer?”
Sang Chu: “There should be survivors in this Small Town. It’s best not to reveal these things in front of people as much as possible.”
Before her wings were fully grown, she couldn’t expose herself easily.
Otherwise, once they were attacked by a mob, the three of them might not survive.
Seeing that Mu Xue was really scared, Lu Min Feng said, “Xiao Xue, why don’t you go back to the Hovercar and stay with us?”
“Forget it, let’s go together. Otherwise, if I suddenly appear later, how will you two explain it?”
Mu Xue tightly held Sang Chu’s arm, but the sounds in her ears continuously poured in, it was so scary.
She bit her lip tightly, her hands moving more obviously.
Sang Chu: “Xiao Xue, what’s wrong?”
This was not right. Even though Mu Xue was very timid before the Apocalypse and afraid of ghosts, after so many years in the Apocalypse, she had gone out on missions and shouldn’t be this scared.
Lu Min Feng also noticed. Seeing her trembling with fear, he asked gently, “Is it the sound?”
Mu Xue slowly raised her head, her eyes slightly red, and nodded: “It’s so noisy, so scary.”
Lu Min Feng couldn’t care less. He directly covered her ears with his hands and looked at Sang Chu, saying, “It should be a side effect of cultivating Mental Power. Is there a way?”
Sang Chu looked at Tu You, who shrugged: “I’m just a tool Little Elf, I don’t understand the cultivation of you Supernatural Ability Users.”
Sang Chu looked at Mu Xue, who was holding her and trembling non-stop: “Xiao Xue, can you do it? If not, don’t force yourself, I’ll send you back to the Hovercar.”
Lu Min Feng: “Yes, you should go back and Rest?”
Mu Xue shook her head with difficulty: “I, I should get used to it and be fine, I can do it.”
She didn’t want to be a burden. Although she said she wanted to hold onto Sang Chu’s golden thigh, she couldn’t really be a parasite in the Apocalypse.
Lu Min Feng looked up at Sang Chu: “How about we find a place to Rest a bit?”
“Okay.”
Sang Chu walked in front, holding a Golden Long Sword in one hand, and her other hand was held by Mu Xue.
Lu Min Feng was beside Mu Xue, covering her ears with his hands, vigilantly extending his Supernatural Ability over the surrounding Soil. As long as something stepped within a hundred meters, he could detect enemies from the feedback given by the Soil.
Ahead was a large rock.
Mu Xue sat on the rock, panting heavily.
Suddenly,
She heard a faint cry for help?
There were too many sounds, too chaotic. This cry for help was very weak, almost nonexistent.
Lu Min Feng and Sang Chu had been paying attention to Lin Mu Xue’s condition. Seeing her slightly furrow her brows, they asked, “Xue’er, what’s wrong?”
“Senior Student, did you hear anything?”
Lu Min Feng shook his head. Lin Mu Xue looked at Sang Chu and saw that she also shook her head, making her doubt herself: “Then I must have misheard.”
Lu Min Feng: “Tell us what you heard, maybe Sang Chu and I didn’t notice?”
“Yes, tell us.”
Mu Xue: “I, I think I heard a cry for help?”
She wasn’t very sure. Among the three people present, her Supernatural Ability was the most useless. Even Sang Chu and Lu Min Feng didn’t hear it, so what she heard must have been an illusion.
Sang Chu: “Shall we go take a look?”
Lu Min Feng: “Yes, this Small Town doesn’t seem to have any Zombies, it should be Safe. It would be good to see who is calling for help.”
He didn’t forget that Sang Chu chose this Small Town because it was their hometown. If Lin Mu Xue’s family hadn’t died, they should still be alive in this Small Town.
Mu Xue looked at Lu Min Feng in shock: “Senior Student, why did you say there are no Zombies here? Didn’t you hear the Zombies roaring?”
The wind and the roaring of zombies were everywhere, but why did Lu Min Feng say there were no zombies nearby?
Hearing Mu Xue’s words, Lu Min Feng looked at Sang Chu in shock. He saw that she also had a bewildered look: “Xiao Xue, you heard the zombies?”
“Yes, you… didn’t hear?”
Tu You flew in front of Mu Xue at this moment, spinning around, and finally clapped his big ears, realizing with a sudden enlightenment: “I know! She was originally a Space Ability User. After her ability increased, she could hear everything within the space she occupied. It’s normal that you can’t hear it, because these sounds might not be nearby at all!”
Mu Xue: “Is, is that so?”
Tu You: “Yes, are these sounds like they’re directly poured into your ears, and you can’t block them out?”
“Uh-huh!”
“Then it’s right. Your ability has increased, and your Space should have become much larger. Don’t you feel it yourself?”
Listening to Tu You’s complaints, Mu Xue finally remembered that with the Space Link, she hadn’t even looked at her own Space.
Now that she was reminded, she took a look inside.
Wow, good heavens, it was actually twice as big as before!
“It’s true, it’s much bigger than before!”
She casually put the Space Link into her own Space and found it much more convenient than the Space Link.
Using the Space Link, she had to search for items one by one, but in her own Space, everything was clear at a glance.
At this moment, she finally saw directly how much stuff Sang Chu had given her.
But after a moment of excitement, Mu Xue slumped down again: “Then what about this sound? It’s too scary to keep hearing it!”
Tu You: “I don’t know about that. Maybe there’s a way, but I’m not a cultivator or a Supernatural Ability User, so I don’t know how to deal with it.”
