Ling Ping'an walked along the road for about ten minutes.
He saw the shadow of a village house at the end of the road in front of him.
However, there was no light. He could only barely see the outline of the house under the moonlight.
Ling Ping'an carried the spring embroidery saber and walked over.
"Yo! Yo! "
A strange cry came from behind him.
Ling Ping'an turned around and saw a strange giant bird pouncing towards him with some strange steps.
He quickly pulled out the spring embroidery saber in his hand and looked at the strange bird warily.
The strange bird tilted its head, and its huge and bright crown stood up strangely.
The feathers on its body were fiery red.
It was at least 1.7 meters tall, which was comparable to the fossil of the Nanzhou moa that Ling Ping'an had seen in the museum.
Its beak was sharp and curved like an eagle's beak.
"Yo! Screech! "The cry that sounded like a young deer came from the bird's beak.
The strange bird was very fast. In a few steps, it pounced in front of Ling Ping'an.
Then, it opened its mouth and a mouthful of dark green, foul-smelling thing sprayed out from its mouth.
In a moment of desperation, Ling Ping'an could only roll on the ground to avoid this mouthful of thick phlegm.
However, he couldn't avoid the strange bird's wings!
Its huge wings suddenly pounced and sent Ling Ping'an flying several meters away!
What was even worse was that it knew how to take advantage of the victory to pursue!
Its huge feet stomped hard, and its two huge wings soared into the air. It actually flew up directly. It wanted to use its sharp claws to press its prey to death on the ground like an eagle hunting!
Just as Ling Ping'an came back to his senses, he saw that the strange bird's huge body had already flown above his head.
It was too late to dodge!
At this moment, Ling Ping'an remembered a very popular saying in the author's group: When a tiger pounced on me, I would slide over it with a slide shovel and use a knife to cut open its stomach...
It didn't seem very reliable, but now, Ling Ping'an had no choice.
He immediately exerted strength in his feet and kicked back. At the same time, he raised his spring embroidery saber and stared fiercely at the strange bird that was pouncing over.
The moment it pounced on him, he used all his strength to stab the tip of the spring embroidery saber into the strange bird's abdomen.
Pfft!
Blood gushed out.
The strange bird's claws also grabbed Ling Ping'an's shoulders.
The sharp claws pierced into the flesh of the shoulder.
If it was in reality, Ling Ping'an would no longer have any strength or leeway to resist.
But in the game, he could still exert his strength.
He used all his strength to grip the spring embroidery saber in his hand tightly and pulled it forward with all his might.
Huala!
The strange bird's belly was completely pierced through.
The claws that were grabbing onto Ling Ping'an couldn't help but let go of him in pain.
Yo! Yo!
From its beak came the cry of a fawn.
The huge body fell to the side of the road.
Seeing this, Ling Ping'an hurriedly raised the spring embroidery knife in his hand and pounced on the strange bird, stabbing it fiercely.
When it stopped moving, it panted heavily and squatted down.
Only then did he have the time to look through his battle records.
Only then did he know that the name of this strange bird was the Crazy Victory Encounter Hatchling.
"Young bird!" Ling Ping'an looked at the huge bird corpse in front of him and shook his head, "This is still a young bird?! How big would an adult bird be?! "
What made him even more embarrassed was that this thing was only Lv 6.
In other words, this was just a f * cking small monster!
"I almost died in the hands of a small monster..." Ling Ping'an lowered his head in shame.
He knew that if he hadn't added points before he came.
This small monster would probably be able to kill him in one move.
Fortunately, he had added points before he came, so his strength attribute far exceeded this small monster. In addition, the spring embroidery saber had a sharp effect, so he could easily cut open this small monster's belly and kill it!
After resting for a while, Ling Ping'an got up and walked to a box that appeared in front of the bird monster's corpse.
His kun chieftain nature had not changed in the slightest.
He only found a mission item called 'Evil Water Fragment' and a bottle of medicine called 'Water Purifying Potion'.
When he touched the Evil Water Fragment, Ling Ping'an realized that he had automatically obtained a mission: Collect Evil Water Fragments.
This mission required him to collect 20 Evil Water Fragments to start the next phase of the mission.
As for the Water Purifying Potion, the description was also a little strange: Purify a polluted well.
Ling Ping'an held these two items and thought, So, the monsters in this dungeon are related to water?
He then looked at the strange bird that had fallen on the road and remembered. "Sheng Yu Bird? A strange beast from the Classic of Mountains and Seas?!
So, is this a dungeon with an eastern fantasy or xianxia background?!
"Interesting!"
He rested on the ground for a while and waited for his lost health to slowly recover.
Only then did he get up and continue walking forward.
Soon, he arrived in front of the cottage.
With the help of the moonlight, he looked at the outskirts of the village.
This was a very typical ancient village.
Outside the village, there seemed to be a fence-like outer wall. Between these fences, there seemed to be a few talisman-like things stuck at a certain distance.
Unfortunately, the fence that had once protected the village seemed to have been damaged by something, and there were gaps in it.
There was one in front of Ling Ping'an.
He simply walked along this gap and walked in.
Just as he walked into the fence, a floating window appeared in front of him: Congratulations, dear player, you have arrived at Beian Village before dawn!
You may be able to find the villagers in the village to find out the current situation of Beian Village.
"Villagers?" Ling Ping'an scratched his head.
He looked around. The entire village was quiet. There wasn't even a dog barking.
Houses made of thatch and loess were scattered on both sides of the bluestone road.
He tried to walk to a house and knock on the door, but there was no response.
He asked loudly again, "Is anyone there?"
There was still no response!
Just like that, he knocked on the houses one by one.
Ling Ping'an didn't find anyone.
He didn't even find any traces of the villagers.
Under the desolate blood moon, the village became more and more gloomy.
Finally, after knocking on at least twenty houses, a courtyard of a large family with red bricks and green tiles appeared in front of Ling Ping'an.
He walked up and knocked on the door. As usual, he asked, "Is anyone there?"
He thought that he still wouldn't get a response.
But unexpectedly, the door opened with a creak.
A little girl with a small braid and wearing a jacket stuck her head out of the crack of the door with an oil lamp in her hand.
"Big brother..." She seemed to be very surprised to see Ling Ping'an. It wasn't until she saw Ling Ping'an's clothes clearly that she felt at ease. She opened her cute eyes and asked, "Are you from the Brocade-clan Guard?"
Ling Ping'an looked at the little girl and squatted down. He even looked at her cute little face and said with a smile, "Big brother is from the Brocade-clan Guard!"
"My father is also from the Brocade-clan Guard!" The little girl said, "But this afternoon, my father said that he had to go out to do something and never came back..."
"Mother went to look for father tonight..."
"He never came back either..."
"Big brother!" The little girl opened her cute big eyes and looked at Ling Ping'an, "Can you help me find father and mother?"
Looking at this cute little girl, Ling Ping'an smiled and nodded, "Sure! Big brother will go find father and mother for you now... "
"What are your father and mother's names?" Ling Ping'an asked.
"My father is my father!" The little girl said seriously, "He's very tall and likes to play the flute alone!"
"Where's my mother? She's very beautiful!"
Ling Ping'an was confused, but this little girl looked to be at most four years old. She might even be a little more than three years old. It was already very good for her to be able to tell things to this extent.
Therefore, he didn't ask anymore. He just smiled and asked, "Little sister, what's your name?"
"My name is Ah Ning!" The little girl said.
"Okay!" Ling Ping'an said to her, "Ah Ning, big brother will go find your father and mother now!"
"You have to be good at home. Remember to keep it at home and don't go anywhere! Wait for big brother to find your father and mother! "
"Okay!" Ah Ning nodded seriously.
"By the way!" Ling Ping'an asked again, "Ah Ning, do you remember where your father and mother went?"
Ah Ning stretched out a finger and pointed to the left of the gate, "Father went there! Mother also went there! "
"Got it!" Ling Ping'an stood up and looked in the direction Ah Ning was pointing.
There was a bluestone path that pointed to an exit of the village.
He followed this path and kept moving forward.
At this moment, a thin fog began to appear.
The night became even more desolate and gloomy.
After walking for a few minutes, Ling Ping'an arrived at the fence at the edge of the village.
The fence here seemed to have been violently destroyed by something.
He walked out and saw a mulberry forest in front of him.
It seemed that it was the place where the residents of this village usually picked mulberry leaves.
At the edge of the mulberry forest, there were messy footsteps.
Many of the grass seemed to have been trampled by people.
It seemed that many people had run into the mulberry forest from here.
Of course, it was also possible that they had fled from the mulberry forest to the village.
Ling Ping'an wasn't a detective and he hadn't learned footprints, so he couldn't tell them apart.
But one thing was certain. Something must have happened in this village.
Suddenly, from the corner of his eye, he saw a red figure behind the earth embankment in the mulberry forest.
He walked over to the side of the embankment and saw a corpse lying under the embankment.
It was a female corpse with a basket in her hand.
Ling Ping'an turned her over and saw that her fatal wound was on her chest.
An extremely sharp weapon had pierced through her heart!
After the murderer killed her, he kicked her off the earth embankment!
Ling Ping'an looked at the corpse and her eyes that were wide open.
"So!" He already knew who the murderer was!
He had even guessed the identity of the deceased!
In the distance, in the depths of the mulberry forest.
A tall man wearing a flying suit and holding a spring embroidery saber had already rushed over!
