Chapter 2: Earthworms Cannibalize People
In response to Cao Anxiang, there was the roar of the tiger under his seat and Long Yue’s spear!
Long Yue swung the spear in his hand down, and a shadow of an angry ape flashed behind him, and the spear was suddenly covered with a layer of gray evil spirit.

Cao Anxiang's eyes were soft, his sleeves fluttered, and for no reason, the sound of birds' cries could be heard all around him.

A two-meter-long white crane appeared beside him at some point.

The white crane's eyes were filled with ferocity, and it flapped its wings to actually deflect Long Yue's attack that was full of murderous energy.

After hearing the cry of the crane, the tiger under Long Yue's seat stopped where it was hesitantly. It was obvious that it was a little afraid of the white crane.

Long Yue was not surprised but laughed: "You are really a fool dreaming, wanting to follow the path of a celestial being!"

In the vast wilderness, people have two ways of practicing.

One is to swallow the essence and blood of a ferocious beast, hone the physical martial arts, and after subduing the ferocious beast's thoughts in the essence and blood and entering a high level, one can transform into a ferocious beast, and it will be no problem for them to carry mountains and embrace the moon.

The other is that the soul goes into a bird, and the bird's back is covered with clouds and earth. On the bird is a city, and the people of the city are gathered to open up thousands of roads. This can be called a celestial being!

The immortals in heaven and the people on earth can be told which is better and which is worse just by looking at their appearance.

However, the path to becoming a celestial being is complicated and requires a vast amount of resources. The extremely dangerous process of transforming one's soul into a bird is enough to stump many people.

Most people practice the ways of earthly people, and there are very few who follow the ways of heavenly immortals.

Long Yue therefore sneered at Cao Anxiang's foolish dream. Just relying on the land of this city, he wanted to support the practice of heavenly immortals. What else could that be but a foolish dream?
Cao Anxiang's lofty ambitions are nothing but a joke to Long Yue.

“You, a white crane, don’t even have a piece of cloud soil on your back, yet you dare to show off in front of me?” Long Yue bent his waist like a violent ape, and the spear in his hand whizzed down. The inky black murderous aura of the angry ape brought out a large amount of evil wind.

In the evil wind, white cranes were crying, spears and snakes were howling, and the sand and dust were swirling so that nothing could be seen clearly.

While Long Yue was fighting with Cao Anxiang, his elite warriors had already begun to wreak havoc in the city.

The people who were holding Liu Xun had already been scared away, leaving Liu Xun where he was.

Liu Xun's hands were tied behind his back, but his face looked very calm.

Taking advantage of the chaos, Liu Xun avoided the Wuzu and found an empty corner and went in.

He only glanced at the battle between Cao Anxiang and Long Yue and immediately lost interest.

In the eyes of a man who has lived for hundreds of years, it is just a small fight.

The most urgent thing was to untie the rope and change into prison uniform to facilitate escape.

Liu was looking for an ordinary household, where a hatchet was placed next to a pile of firewood in the yard.

Liu Xun raised the corner of his mouth, turned his back, and groped with his bound hands to stand the hatchet upright and lean it against the firewood pile. Then he estimated the direction and slowly squatted down to cut the rope.

Soon, the rope on his hand was cut by the hatchet.

Liu Xun pulled off the broken rope and let out a long sigh.

Although I experienced a long four hundred years in my previous life, it was still unpleasant to have a knife hanging over my head when I was reborn.

He finally had time to catch his breath.

Glancing at the coarse linen clothes drying nearby, Liu Xun determined that they belonged to the male owner of the household, so he took them down and put them on.

There was a rustling sound in the room.

Liu Xun turned around and saw a little head with two buns on both sides poking out from the gate.

The little girl looked at Liu Xun timidly, her eyes curious about why Liu Xun wanted to take things from her house.

Liu Xun showed his mouthful of white teeth and smiled at the little girl, but the little girl was scared and ran into the house, looking at him through the crack in the door.

Liu Xun laughed awkwardly, stopped teasing the little girl, turned around and walked out.

Before leaving, he threw behind a bag of coins he had picked up during the chaos, which he used as money to buy clothes.

We are not out of danger yet!
Liu Xun remembered that although the battle ended with Long Yue's victory and the Cao family suffered heavy losses, the Cao family had managed Weishan City for many years after all, and the city did not fall into the hands of the forces behind Long Yue.

After the chaos, the Cao family will soon blockade the entire Weishan City and eliminate the unrest in the city. If Liu Xun continues to stay, he will definitely be discovered again.

The safest thing to do is to leave Weishan City before the chaos is over, otherwise it will be too late.

Liu Xun didn't need to think of a solution anymore. In his previous life, he left Weishan City with the refugees during the chaos.

Some households feared being robbed, so when the riot broke out, they packed up their belongings and fled directly through the open city gates.

Amid the chaos, Liu found a group of refugee households and blended right in.

The situation was chaotic and the people fleeing had no time to pay attention to who was around them.

The defense force of Weishan City was weak. The guards who were originally guarding the city gate were called back to stop the enemy. The city gate was half-closed with no one guarding it.

Crowds rushed out of the city gate. Liu Xun stood in the fleeing crowd and looked back at Weishan City.

"Cao Anxiang, we will see each other again." Liu Xun narrowed his eyes slightly and then quickened his pace.

The wilderness was not peaceful at all, with ferocious wild beasts everywhere. It was extremely difficult for this group of people to escape to the next human city.

The nearest city is Dalong City, which is controlled by the forces behind Long Yue.

Dalong City is a thousand miles away from Weishan City. Long Yue came to attack the city. As a cultivator, he was accompanied by warriors, so he was naturally not afraid of the dangers in the wilderness.

But Liu Xun and others are different, they are just a group of ordinary people.

Everyone held their weapons, looked around vigilantly, and kept moving forward towards Dalong City.

Others had no choice but to go, but Liu Xun had to go.

There is an opportunity in Dalong City. Fortunately, no one will take it in a short period of time, so Liu Xun has enough time.

Liu Xun, who had fallen behind the team, squeezed into the crowd silently.

When traveling in the wilderness, it is very dangerous to fall behind the team.

Liu Xun turned around inadvertently and suddenly caught a glimpse of a black shadow dragging a person at the end of the team into the shadows.

In broad daylight, Liu Xun couldn't even see the true face of the black shadow.

"Something is targeting the fleeing team!" Liu Xun became alert but said nothing.

It would be very disadvantageous to cause panic at this time, and it would be bad if the crowd dispersed!
For a moment, the crisis did not reach Liu Xun. He just kept moving forward, and was extremely alert.

When there was one less person at the end of the team, someone finally noticed it.

"There is a ferocious beast eating people!" Several people shouted in fear, pointing at the place where the black shadow disappeared. Their hands were shaking, and they were obviously extremely frightened.

The crowd was in an uproar in an instant, and some people tried to flee in all directions to avoid the unknown ferocious beast following the team.

Some smart people did not move, because they knew that leaving the crowd at this time would mean death.

Sure enough, the black shadow pounced on those who left the team, then leaned over and began to devour their flesh and blood, its pair of red eyes looking greedily at the crowd.

When Liu Xun saw the true face of the black shadow, he was shocked at first, it turned out to be this kind of thing!
"The Book of Wilderness·The Book of Evil" says: There are [earth moles] in the mountains and forests, which look like goats, have four horns on their heads, and love to eat people!
The true appearance of the black shadow completely matched that of a four-horned goat, and it was undoubtedly the ferocious beast [Earth Mole].

The earth mole is extremely fast and can run more than ten meters in a single leap.

So just now it was dragging the human away so fast that it was hard to see clearly.

But Liu Xun quickly calmed down. As long as the method was right, ordinary people could also kill earth bugs.

Others may not know this method, but Liu Xun is different.

Because he is the master of the so-called "Huang Jing".

In other words, Liu Xun compiled the "Huang Jing" in his previous life!
