Chapter 256: 255, sleeping berth
Lu Hanmo nodded in understanding and smiled as he held Luo Shu’s hand, "Shushu, let’s go outside." For them, the Soul Bodies no longer posed any threat.
"Okay!" Luo Shu smiled slightly, and she stepped out of the space with Lu Hanmo.
When the Soul Bodies saw Lu Hanmo appear, they hurriedly lunged at him, but in the next moment, they regretted it.
Originally, these Soul Bodies, having lost the nourishment of the Soul Flower, had become less solid than before. Now, with the Life Flower, their bodies melted away rapidly like snow under the sun.
As the Soul Bodies vanished, the surroundings instantly cleared up.
Lu Hanmo and Luo Shu exchanged a smile and, holding hands, they walked towards the exit of Dark Drain. The journey was treacherous, but the rewards were tremendous.
As evening approached, the mist filled the sky, sometimes near, sometimes far, sometimes still, sometimes shifting, flaring, and dimming, an endlessly changing spectacle. Although it was not their first time witnessing such a scene, the misty landscape appeared incredibly beautiful to Luo Shu and Lu Hanmo at that moment!
Several huge figures emerged from the mist, instantly shattering the beauty.
"It’s those wild people!" Luo Shu immediately recognized them as the wild people who had fought with her before and from whom she had taken the red crystal.
Upon seeing Luo Shu, the wild people charged toward her with ferocious expressions. Their Divine Stone, which they worshipped as a deity, was gone, and they had been searching the forest for several days without any success.
The creatures of Dark Drain dared not approach the place where they lived. This creature, which looked like a little monkey, had suddenly disappeared after fighting with them. Then, their Divine Stone went missing as well. It must be related to her.
The wild people rushed forward and encircled Luo Shu and Lu Hanmo in the middle.
One of the wild people spoke gibberish at Luo Shu and Lu Hanmo and then stretched out his hand.
Although Luo Shu and Lu Hanmo could not understand what he said, they knew what he meant; he wanted them to hand over their possessions.
Luo Shu and Lu Hanmo tacitly backed up against each other, ready for battle. They definitely would not hand over the Crystal Stone.
Seeing their reaction, the wild people became enraged and swung their massive fists, attacking the pair.
Despite her petite stature, Luo Shu was now at the Heavenly Level Late Stage of strength, so she had no trouble holding her own against the wild people. The reason she had not wanted to fight them last time was their mysterious power, but now that she had the Crystal Stone in her possession, she was not afraid of them.
There was no need to even mention Lu Hanmo’s strength, as he could take down a wild person with almost every strike.
Under their coordinated efforts, the dozen or so wild people were quickly either injured or killed.
After dealing with the wild people, Luo Shu and Lu Hanmo set off again. This time their journey was smooth, and they soon left Dark Drain.
Looking back at Dark Drain, Luo Shu and Lu Hanmo shared a smile and stepped forward towards the path ahead.
They boarded the bus they had taken to get there; the driver was still the bearded uncle, and the ticket collector was still the middle-aged woman with a beaming smile.
When Luo Shu and Lu Hanmo boarded the bus, both the driver and the ticket collector were startled!
They had a profound memory of Luo Shu! It was not because of her beauty but because half a month ago, she said she was going to Dark Drain, a place known as the Valley of Death. They had rarely seen anyone come back alive from there, let alone a young girl.
Luo Shu, as soon as she boarded, was recognized by several villagers in addition to the driver and the conductor. Being in a remote location, Dark Drain had only a few families, so naturally, there were only a handful of people who took the bus.
"Young girl, you’ve come out of Dark Drain? What is it like there? Is it really as dangerous as the legends say?"
"Yeah young girl, tell us about it." Although the crowd were all locals, they too dared not enter Dark Drain.
Long ago, there were several villages near Dark Drain, but after one of the villages disappeared overnight, the other villages also moved away one by one. In the end, only a few households were left.
The elders in their families had warned them as children not to go to Dark Drain and told them many terrifying stories about it. Therefore, from a young age, they developed a profound fear of Dark Drain.
Seeing everyone looking forward to her story, Luo Shu smiled faintly and said, "It is indeed terrifying there. Thick fog can disorient you at any time, and there are all kinds of unknown beasts that are definitely more frightening than tigers and lions. I was lucky to get out this time because I met this Yan Country Guard Squad brother. Otherwise, I really couldn’t have made it."
"So that’s it! You’re really lucky!"
"Did you really see those beasts? What do they look like?" The villagers, having heard what Luo Shu said, felt relieved. If a young girl could come and go from Dark Drain freely, what was there for them to fear?
"I’ve seen them; it had two heads and a pair of huge wings," Luo Shu said. After Lu Hanmo had told her, she had been quite curious and went to take a look.
Chatting and laughing all the way, the bus soon arrived in the city.
After saying goodbye to everyone, Luo Shu and Lu Hanmo headed to the train station.
Lu Hanmo, having a Guardian Officer’s ID, easily bought two sleeper tickets.
With just a little luggage, Luo Shu and Lu Hanmo proceeded to the waiting room.
The waiting room was sparsely populated with just a few people.
Lu Hanmo bought some water and bread from the station’s shop and, after a short wait, the train arrived.
Boarding the train, they found their sleeper compartment.
This sleeper compartment had two beds, two bunks in total, accommodating four people; both Luo Shu’s and Lu Hanmo’s bunks were on the top.
No sooner had they climbed onto their bunks than the passengers for the lower bunks entered the room.
Seeing them, Luo Shu couldn’t help but think how small the world truly was.
Xu Lisha and Xu Liping, the two sisters, also saw Luo Shu and were likewise stunned. They hadn’t expected to bump into Luo Shu again by such a coincidence.
Because Xu Lisha was pregnant, they had specifically pulled some strings to get sleeper tickets this time. They had planned to buy three tickets but the sleeper tickets were so hard to come by that they could only manage to inconvenience Wang Zhiyong with a hard seat.
You know them? Seeing the surprise in Luo Shu’s eyes, Lu Hanmo asked with a look.
Luo Shu smiled and shook her head.
Lu Hanmo returned the smile, took a water cup out of his bag, jumped down from the upper bunk, picked up an empty bottle from the table, and said to Luo Shu, "I’m going to fetch some water."
