Chapter 114: Ambushed
First of all, sorry about that. I forgot that the starting point of 500 words also counts as one part, so those morning remarks are included in the charge, sorry about that. At the same time, thank you to everyone for their monthly votes, and thank you to Tiān Xún for the reward, as well as everyone's comments over these past few days, I'm really grateful. 4000 words, two updates
Entered a strange world, the first thing to do is to observe the surrounding environment before taking action.
Before crossing over, Wu Yuan and Yu Xianrong underwent extremely rigorous training, one of which was to identify the civilization they had arrived at, whether it was a high-tech civilization.
Due to the seal of the Tathagata Buddha, Earth's civilization is not afraid of the invasion of immortal heroes, but what if the other party is an extremely advanced high-tech civilization?
Above, various preventive measures were taken, and Wu Yuan was told what to do when encountering this kind of civilization.
However, fortunately, Wu Yuan did not arrive in such a world, but instead came to a pristine world. The two of them stayed in the small forest for three days, working on using drones to explore distant cities, while collecting some flowers, grasses and insects as specimens to put into collection boxes.
According to Wu Zetian, all items with magical powers that return to Earth will be subject to prohibition and will be extinguished when brought back, but the most basic substances, such as minerals, metals, and even animals and plants without magical powers, are unaffected.
The two men's goal was to find more, put them in the collection box and bring them back to Earth - don't look at these things as insignificant, actually, they can bring unprecedented opportunities for technology on Earth.
In industry, synthesizing metal often requires tens of thousands of experiments. In biological research, it is even more so, with countless failed experiments piled up. And the minerals and organisms discovered on this planet will make experts ecstatic when brought back.
On this day, just as the two were processing the collected specimens, Yu Xianrong suddenly issued a warning.
"Wu Yuan, be careful! A large group of people are running towards us!"
"What?"
Wu Yuanyi was taken aback and hastily closed his laptop, putting it into a nearby metal box.
"The footage sent back by the drone shows those girls holding weapons... Oh no, the drone has been shot down by an arrow!"
A loud explosion was heard from a distance, which was the sound of the drone self-destructing.
When they came to this world, Wu Yuan and his team were reminded that if they had to retreat, they must destroy the high-tech products, lest they be understood or used by unknown civilizations.
Drones are just an example, and Wu Yuan hurriedly put his laptop and other things into a box. The computer software has analyzed the things that need to be analyzed, and it's almost done.
"Be careful!"
Yu Xian Rong suddenly exclaimed, at this time, Wu Yuan saw a huge wild beast rushing towards the small woods.
This is a monster similar to a scorpion, with a black shell covering its entire body, and rows of black thorns on its back. The most terrifying thing is that four-meter-long, bowl-mouthed hook!
The submachine gun was by Wu Yuan's side, and he picked it up, aiming in a three-point stance, switching to automatic mode. A burst of bullets swept past, hitting the scorpion monster's shell, dark green goo splashing out. Unfortunately, this scorpion monster was as big as an elephant, and the bullets seemed to be tickling it. Not only did they fail to kill it, but instead made the beast even more frenzied.
A ferocious beast charged straight at Wu Yuan, who dodged and rolled to the side of a tree.
The beast suddenly crashed into a large tree, and the tree that was as thick as one person's hug broke in two with a loud crash. What's even more deadly is that Wu Yuan's automatic rifle had run out of bullets.
"Bang! Bang! Bang!"
Not far away, Yu Xianrong took out an automatic rifle and fired at the monster. The bullets splashed blood flowers on the monster's body, and then the monster's body pounced towards Yu Xianrong violently.
Yu Xianrong was very calm, his body rolled once, avoiding the monster's impact, but at this time, the monster's reverse hook suddenly swung, brushing against Yu Xianrong's body. This attack was extremely strange and accurate, and it was impossible to resist.
"Immortal Face!"
Wu Yuan's heart suddenly rose, and he saw with his own eyes that the scorpion's hook had pierced Yu Xianrong's body.
At this time, a yellow light flashed on Yu Xianrong's body, which was the Buddha's light. The Buddha's light saved her life. Yu Xianrong's body suddenly turned into a puff of golden light and disappeared.
"The Buddhist scriptures bestowed by the Bodhisattva can exempt you from danger, and allow you to die once. I've made a setting, so that when a life crisis occurs, you can be sent back."
Yu Xian didn't have time to mourn the failure of the mission, Wu Yuan took out a new clip, loaded it, and aimed at the monster's eyes, unleashing a burst of fire.
One bullet hit the monster's right eye accurately, and the monster, which had lost half of its vision, roared crazily and rushed towards Wu Yuan.
Wu Yuan dodged the attack, then a hook flashed across Wu Yuan's cheek like lightning, but due to losing an eye, it deviated and almost took Wu Yuan's life.
Wu Yuan didn't hesitate, his hand waved and a palm slapped onto the hook of the scorpion monster. The electric current accumulated in his body burst out instantly, causing the monster's body to shudder violently.
It was at this time that a cold light suddenly flew over and landed right on the monster's left eye.
That was a colorful feathered long arrow, completely making the monster lose its vision.
The monster went completely mad, dashing its head against a tree trunk. Almost simultaneously, a figure landed on the monster's back and punched it heavily.
In Wu Yuan's stunned gaze, this punch was like a pile driver, emitting a loud "bang" sound, and then the monster's body went soft and fell to the ground!
But what's sad is that the monster used all its strength, relying on instinct to counterattack before dying, and the hook cut through the woman's calf like lightning.
The girl's body was like a butterfly pinned down by a thumbtack, and suddenly fell to the ground.
Wu Yuan didn't hesitate, took a step forward and swept the girl into his arms.
"Don't move, I'll help you get rid of the poison!"
Wu Yuan took out a bandage and tightly wrapped it around the girl's thigh, then tore open her pant leg, revealing her dark purple calf.
It was just a slight scratch, but the girl's calf had already turned black and blue.
With a knife blade, she cut open her wound and squeezed the surrounding area to let out the toxic liquid. It was only then that Wu Yuan had time to look at this girl's appearance.
She is not tall and looks like a twelve or thirteen year old girl, although her complexion is a bit pale, but it can still be seen that she is a little beauty.
"Thank you, sister, for helping me get rid of the poison."
She thanked softly, at this time, Wu Yuan heard the rustling sound coming from around, a large group of women parted the grass and thought they had run here.
"Miss, you're not busy, right?"
Earth.
A golden light suddenly burst forth, and then Yu Xianrong's body appeared in the glass isolation chamber.
"I'm fine, nothing's wrong, how is Wu Yuan doing now?"
Yu Xianrong gazed at the broadcast screen beside the glass isolation chamber, interrupting the staff's inquiry. Each transmission required Wu Zetian to expend a great deal of energy. This unexpected event ended her interdimensional journey; if Wu Yuan was also killed by the monster, they would have to wait another three months.
"Wu Yuan's situation was still good, a reinforcement suddenly appeared, and the two people reasonably killed the monster."
Yu Xianrong nodded, and suddenly a girl appeared on the screen. Her combat power shocked the scientists present, and the software drew a conclusion.
"Fist speed exceeded the speed of sound, and that one punch had at least three thousand kilograms of weight!"
"This speed and power is beyond human capabilities. Even the strongest athlete would shatter their bones to death with just one hit."
"Her fists didn't seem to have any strength at all, and she was no more than fourteen years old! She must have cultivated the legendary internal force."
Wu Yuan let out a long sigh of relief, everything was fine as long as nothing happened.
"Miss Xian Rong, how are you?"
"Not good."
Due to the sudden situation, most of the collected items were lost in another world. Yu Xianrong had a small bag at his waist, which contained several beautiful stones found in the forest, but when he opened the bag, he found that two of the stones had turned into powder.
He took off his waist pack and all his clothes, put them on the conveyor belt, entered the disinfection room, and underwent a thorough physical examination and disinfection.
Won't something happen to Wu Yuan? If he's also killed by the monster, then this adventure is over.
However, before this, Yu Xianrong thought of Wu Yuan being called "sister".
It's really hilarious.
The group of women who appeared had long legs and slender waists, dressed in the attire of a noble family's servants, treating this young girl with utmost respect.
"This girl was injured by this monster, do you have any medicine to treat her?"
The scene of being surrounded by a large group of beauties was something Wu Yuan had never experienced before, and now he needed to quickly build good relationships with these girls. The injured girl in front of him was a breakthrough point.
"You open the scorpion's tail hook, and there is a bead inside the joint. That thing is very effective in treating venomous injuries."
The pale-faced woman said loudly, then the group of women trembled and surrounded the scorpion's body, starting to dismantle its tail.
"Let me come."
He took an axe and struck it down at the heel of his shoe, then rinsed it with water. Soon, a misty, bead-like object appeared before everyone's eyes.
"Thank you, sister."
A girl took the agate bead from Wu Yuan's hand and put it on the wound of Song Xing's daughter. The effect of the bead was very good, and the color around the girl's wound gradually lightened, and soon the bleeding also turned bright red.
The remaining girls began to tidy up everything around them.
Compared to the chaos earlier, they are now extremely smooth in their movements, meticulous and focused. Everything on the scene, including the shell casings, has been collected. Wu Yuan noticed a detail - with just five women, they were able to hold down that monster, each of them having slightly more strength than him.
"Thank you for saving my sister, I'm really grateful."
"Sister, your clothes are very beautiful, I have never seen this style before."
The girls surrounded Wu Yuan, looking at the combat uniform on Wu Yuan's body with admiring eyes, and began to comment.
"This dress doesn't look good on you, if you want a nice one, sister can help make some for you."
Since dignity is gone, then continue to lose it. Wu Yuan started hypnotizing himself in his mind, telling himself that he was a woman.
Hmph, this is the Country of Women, Western Liang Women's Country! In those days, when Tang Monk's identity was exposed in the Country of Women, Queen Yin invited him to stay, and he eventually gave up on going to the Western Heaven to retrieve scriptures, staying instead in the Country of Women, indulging in debauchery... Wow, I thought wrong, before Tang Monk and his disciples revealed their identities, they entered the Country of Women safely. Originally, nothing was amiss, but when the four master-disciple stood by the river watching a large group of women bathing, they couldn't help but breathe heavily, unknowingly drawing closer to take a peek, and ended up falling into the river, drinking quite a bit of water before their identities were exposed.
Tang Changlao can deceive these women, and Wu Yuan will have no problem.
For example, why could Hua Mulan disguise herself as a man and join the army? It's because everyone thought that people around them were male. In the Women's Country, there had never been any men, so no matter how strange someone looked, the women would still think they were male.
"But sister, your face?"
The injured girl frowned and looked at Wu Yuan's overly angular and ugly face.
"As for me..."
Wu Yuan smiled wryly and touched his face, "When I was young, I ate some unknown wild fruit in the wilderness, which caused my body to grow wildly, and all sorts of things appeared on my face. As a result, I look very unsightly now. For many years, I have been living in the wilderness, considered a savage. Don't you find me repulsive?"
"Of course not."
The girl hastily shook her head, and for some reason, when she saw Wu Yuan, she felt a sense of familiarity.
"What's this beast?"
Wu Yuan asked.
"This is a snow leopard, a rare beast. It sneaked into our place and ate several of our sheep the other day, so I followed it here, didn't expect to run into you guys."
Sister, you're so formidable! Here, being able to kill a swift mantis is equivalent to becoming an adult.
"Have you grown up?"
Wu Yuan looked at the twelve-year-old girl with a strange expression, feeling very puzzled.
At the age of less than fifteen, he was still under legal protection in the Tang Empire, so why did a twelve-year-old girl think she was already an adult?
Yes, thinking about it, during the Han Dynasty, 12-year-old girls could get married, and if an 18-year-old didn't get married, the country would force her to marry someone.
So, in the evil old society, a 12-year-old girl could get married, it's simply too outrageous to be speechless.
"This is the age of majority stipulated in the Maid's Law. How old are you, sister? Have you been living in the wilderness all along and don't know the situation in the city?"
"Maid's Law?"
Wu Yuan silently recited this name in his heart, but didn't ask it out loud. The word "maid" is a derogatory term on Earth, but not in this world.
"I'm 22 years old. The wild fruits I eat sometimes make me forget things, and I feel dizzy. Little sister, where do you live?"
"The estate up ahead is my home."
Look up and see if it's not the mountain villa I saw just now?
"Sister, this is the estate of my family. I forgot to mention that my sister is the queen of Western Liang Kingdom, and this estate was given to me as a coming-of-age gift by her. Sister, come with me to the mountain villa as a guest."
The girl grasped Wu Yuan's hand tightly, making it impossible for him to break free.
"Can I refuse this?"
"Not yet, I haven't introduced myself, my name is Song Qianyun, and I haven't asked for the name of this unfamiliar sister."
"Under the soft and charming daughter."
Wu Yuan replied very seriously.
After all, this name is really easy on the tongue.
On earth, countless people suddenly spat on the ground.
