Walking by the Abyss on Thin Ice

Chapter 31 – Blood-stained Tianping Bridge

Many villagers near the Huangji Town recognize Su Yun because he is too special. Within a radius of a hundred miles, he is probably the only true human, which cannot help but attract their attention.

The wilderness is a place where demons and monsters run rampant, and there are many dangers, including monsters with evil intentions towards Su Yun.

However, the reputation of Tianmen Town makes the monsters hesitate.

Tianmen Town is one of the taboos in the wilderness and was the culprit that caused the arrival of another world six years ago!

After those guys became ghosts and gods, they still remained the bosses of the wilderness.

The formation of the wilderness was not entirely due to Tianmen Town. In fact, the history of the wilderness can be traced back to the appearance of the Celestial Market Wall in its early days.

It\'s just that the wilderness was not as big as it is now. Tianmen Town stirred up the incident of the arrival of the other world six years ago, which led to the expansion of the wilderness.

Tianmen Town and the incident of the other world six years ago were just one of the weird things about the Celestial Market Wall. Tianmen Town only gathered experts from all over the country to study the weird things about the Celestial Market Wall.

The Celestial Market Wall is the most mysterious.

The monsters who experienced the arrival of the other world are very wary of the residents of Tianmen Town. However, there are also old monsters in the wilderness who do not care about Tianmen Town.

Fortunately, the places where the old monsters live are often the core areas of the wilderness and rarely come to places like Tianmen Town and Huangji Town.

Hua Hu and three little foxes followed Su Yun around Huangji Town, and buying and selling things in the wilderness was all done with Qinghong Coins.

Qinghong Coins come from the Qinghong Crab in the North Sea. The back of this crab has a rainbow-like pattern. After eating the Qinghong Crab, you can knock off a Qinghong Coin by smashing the crab shell.

These Qinghong Coins are said to be metal from the sea and can be used to refine treasures.

There are "people" who specialize in collecting Qinghong Coins in Huangji Town. It is rumored that they sell them to people in the city for five zhu.

In recent years, many monsters have come to the city to make a living, bringing five zhu with them. Gradually, some monsters in Huangji Town began to trade with five zhu.

"Hua Hu, can you give me two Qinghong Coins?"

After thinking for a while, Hua Hu said, "I want to buy something."

.

Su Yun took out two bundled large crabs from the basket. These two crabs were heavy, and there was a hint of Qinghong on their shells.

Because of his poor eyesight and lack of livelihood, Su Yun had to wait for the high tide to go to the beach to set traps and use seafood to exchange for daily necessities in the market.

There are few "people" nearby who can go to the sea because there are monsters in the sea that are even more terrifying than them, and they often come ashore to find food.

Su Yun is familiar with the tides and can accurately calculate the ebb and flow. He can also set traps, which is why he can sell seafood to survive.

However, Qinghong Crabs are difficult to catch. The pincers of this kind of crab are extremely sharp and powerful, and can easily break fingers. Su Yun can only use traps to catch a few during high tide.

Hua Hu carried two Qinghong Crabs to a stall in Huangji Town and put them on the stall. The two Qinghong Crabs were still alive, spitting bubbles from their mouths.

The one running the stall was an old dog with white eyebrows. He was wearing clothes and sitting there with his eyes closed.

"Uncle Gou, I want to learn shapeshifting." Hua Hu said.

The old dog, who was a half-brother of Hua Hu\'s father, opened one eye secretly and then closed it again. He said slowly, "It turns out to be a little cub from Huqiu Village. Shapeshifting is a secret that our demon race does not pass on, but who made me and the wild fox have the same father but different mother? Of course, I will sell the shapeshifting technique to you. Although I and the wild fox have the same father but different mother, shapeshifting is a secret that our demon race does not pass on, so I still have to charge you."

He picked up the two Qinghong Crabs and stood up, shaking his tail. "Follow me."Hua Hu called three little foxes. The old dog frowned and stopped walking, "Hua\'s second son, it\'s fine for you to go into the city, but they are too young to go in at the age of fourteen!"

Hua Hu said, "Uncle Gou, there are only four of us left in Huqiu Village. After I leave, there will be no one to take care of them."

The old dog sighed and shook his head, "So, isn\'t it good for Guo to stay in the countryside? Why must they go to the city to die?"

Hua Hu fell silent for a moment and said, "We want to avenge our master!"

The old dog fell silent, walked away, and said, "Old lady, watch my stall! Learning transformation technique takes two to three days. If you have anything to do, go and take care of it."

Hua Hu hurried to find Su Yun and said, "I and Xiaofan will stay in Huangji Town for two to three days. Be careful when you go back alone, Xiao Yun."

Su Yun smiled, "I have traveled this road countless times, no need to worry about me."

Hua Hu left.

Su Yun wandered around Huangji for a while. It was not very convenient without Hua Hu and the others. He couldn\'t see what the vendors were selling.

Su Yun lost interest and returned alone on the same road. It was still early in the market. When he arrived at Tianping Bridge, there was no one on the bridge. A young man with a basket on his back came to the bridge and waited quietly.

He couldn\'t cross the bridge with his weight alone. He needed a few more people.

After waiting for a while, a voice came, "Wait! Wait! I also want to cross the bridge!"

Su Yun heard footsteps approaching and saw a person standing not far from him. Su Yun smiled and nodded. The person was surprised and said, "Are you the little guy from Tianmen Town?"

Su Yun curiously asked, "Do you know me, brother? Your voice sounds unfamiliar to me."

The person should be young, with a deep voice just after puberty. He smiled and said, "You are famous now. Who doesn\'t know you? I heard that you killed several people in the city and escaped the scholars\' magic power in the Snake Gorge. You are amazing."

Su Yun frowned slightly.

"I have seen you from a distance before, but I haven\'t come into contact with you. It\'s normal that you haven\'t seen me. I just came back from the market with firewood."

The firewood carrier said, "My name is Li Yanzhen, from Li Family Village."

At this time, someone on the other side of the bridge shouted, "Don\'t dawdle, hurry up and cross the bridge. I am still waiting to cross the bridge!"

Su Yun\'s ears moved, "The voice of the person waiting on the other side of the bridge is also unfamiliar. Brother, we don\'t have enough people. We can\'t cross the bridge!"

The person on the other side of the bridge said angrily, "You are all carrying things, and one person weighs as much as two people. Come over quickly and don\'t delay my trip to the market!"

Li Yanzhen smiled, "This man is right. Let\'s try. If we can cross, we will cross. If we can\'t, we will come back and wait for more people."

Su Yun walked in front, and Li Yanzhen urged, "Walk faster."

Su Yun smiled, "I am blind and can\'t walk fast. Why don\'t you go in front?"

Li Yanzhen shook his head, "I am carrying firewood. The bridge is so narrow, how can I get in front of you? Hurry up."

Su Yun walked forward and unknowingly walked to the center of the bridge. He took a few more steps forward, and the bridge surface shook slightly and was about to sink towards the opposite side.

Su Yun raised his eyebrows, "Brother Li, are there other people on the bridge?"

In front of him, two strange people with horns on their heads were crouching with a long knife in one hand and a sword in the other. The two strange people held their breath, and beads of sweat appeared on their foreheads, but they didn\'t make any sound. Even their breathing was so faint that it was imperceptible.

The knives and swords in their hands pointed at Su Yun, but didn\'t move. Su Yun was only a few steps away and was about to hit the tip of the sword!

"Is there anyone there?"Behind Su Yun, the woodcutter grumbled, "You blind man, hurry up and go!"

On the other side of the bridge, someone shouted, "Hurry up and come over, I still have to cross the bridge to get to the market!"

What Su Yun couldn\'t see was that the person on the other side of the bridge was also a strange creature with a goat head and horns, and the woodcutter behind him also had horns!

Su Yun smiled and greeted them, then continued to walk slowly.

The woodcutter\'s eyes flickered, and he slowly drew a long knife from the pile of firewood with his right hand.

His strength was immense. He slowly lifted the firewood with his left hand, bent down, and quietly placed the firewood on the bridge.

The stone bridge of Tianping Bridge was very narrow, only a little over a step wide, barely enough to accommodate the firewood.

The woodcutter stared at Su Yun\'s back, his breathing becoming slightly short. He slowly straightened his waist, and at this moment, he suddenly saw a dragon swimming under Su Yun\'s skin!

It was autumn now, and Su Yun had added some clothes, so only his neck and ankles could be seen.

The woodcutter recognized the dragon\'s claws and head under Su Yun\'s skin. From just a glimpse, he could tell that Su Yun\'s blood and energy were running extremely violently!

His blood and energy were so intense that they turned into a dragon and flowed from his heart, winding and swimming on the surface of his skin, forming a powerful force!

In a short period of time, Su Yun\'s lungs could breathe several times the amount of air they normally could!

His heart\'s compressive strength was also several times greater than usual, greatly increasing the speed of blood flow!

His more than 600 muscles were ready, and each contraction and extension would provide several times the explosive force!

If his strength were to explode, it would be as amazing as an explosion of gunpowder!

"Be careful!"

The woodcutter shouted, but before he could finish his warning, Su Yun had already taken a step forward, and his body was only a hair\'s breadth away from the swords in front of him.

Sensing the energy, the two strange goat-headed men in front of him instinctively attacked, thrusting their long swords forward!

At the same time as they thrust their swords, Su Yun had already retreated, avoiding the swords as if he knew what was coming. As he retreated, he used half a move of the dragon\'s tail, sweeping his foot back!

Bang!

The firewood exploded, blocking the woodcutter\'s view!

"Mind!"

As the woodcutter stood up, he shouted the second word. Su Yun\'s left hand reached forward, and his blood and energy overflowed, forming the shape of a dragon\'s mouth around his palm!

With a clang, the goat-headed man holding the sword was caught by Su Yun\'s left hand, and the sharp blade could not even hurt his palm.

"Roar!"

A dragon\'s roar suddenly came, and Su Yun\'s left arm twisted and distorted, causing the long sword to clatter and twist into a spiral. The goat-headed man\'s face showed a look of horror as he saw his arm also twisted into a spiral!

His wrist joint made a cracking sound, and his fascia tore, then his forearm muscles rotated and twisted, and the arm bones followed suit, sending the invading force to his upper arm.

Crack!

His shoulder blade dislocated, and his arm twisted like a spiral in a frying pan. He even saw the muscles on his arm pulsating violently, and the bursting blood vessels!
