From the time travel, I became extraordinary

When Xiao Wang, Xiao Jun and the others heard these words, they were obviously stunned.

It is true that all the people present are Huang Yongqiang's confidants, but they are not the worms in his stomach, so they naturally don't know what he is thinking in his heart.

"I've never dealt with Mr. Jiang, but looking at his appearance, I know that he has a cold and arrogant personality."

"After entering this area, we have already found two corpses of mantis monsters, and we haven't seen any danger. Since it is very safe here, there is really no need for us to run to the valley entrance."

"That's right. We can find the monster's corpse ourselves. Why would we bother trying to get someone else to do something that would please us?"

"The entrance to the valley is in the northwest. Let's just turn our backs to it and search in the southeast direction!"

"Yeah, that's the decision. I definitely have no objection!"

……

After a brief moment of surprise, Xiaojun, Xiaowang and others reacted immediately.

Everyone spoke up one after another, expressing their opinions and suggestions.

As Huang Yongqiang's confidants, since they already knew that he was a little dissatisfied with Jiang Yao, at this moment, everyone naturally followed his thoughts and said whatever words sounded nice.

To search for the monster's corpse, they need to look everywhere in this area. For Huang Yongqiang, as long as he doesn't go to Jiang Yao at the mouth of the valley, he has no objection to going in any other direction.

Hearing the suggestions from his men, he smiled and nodded.

With a wave of his hand, the group dispersed in a fan shape and searched towards the southwest.

Their figures had just disappeared when a red and black head slowly emerged from under a bush.

Although the monster that appeared at this moment did not stand up straight, its ferocious body crawling on the ground was at least three meters long.

The larger the body of the mantis monster, the stronger it must be. This is the experience that Jiang Yao summed up after experiencing a lot of killing.

Compared with the monsters that died in his hands, the mantis monster that just crawled out from the bushes was not only stronger, but also seemed to be much more intelligent.

On a face that was highly similar to a human's, with a hint of obvious fear, it glanced from afar at the entrance of Death Valley where Jiang Yao and others were.

Then, it withdrew its gaze and looked in the direction where Huang Yongqiang and others had just left.

Its face was full of bloodthirstiness, its eyes glowed green, and it licked its lips.

The two strong lower limbs pushed the ground hard, and it flew forward as fast as the wind, close to the ground. In the blink of an eye, it disappeared without a trace.

Death Valley, the area in front of the valley entrance.

"Fuck..."

"A crack suddenly appeared in the void, and the rope broke. Were the pigs and sheep that were just driven away swallowed by these things?"

"What the hell is this? Space turbulence? Void cracks?"

……

He patted his head. The sheep he was possessed by lost contact again. The splitting headache reappeared in Jiang Yao's heart, making him feel extremely uncomfortable.

The so-called Death Valley is not a real valley, but a large canyon covering an extremely wide area.

The entrance to the canyon may be a little narrow compared to the inside, but its width is still amazing.

After losing several animals in a row, Jiang Yao and his group once again drove the pigs and sheep into the Death Valley, changing their position several times.

Whether it is pigs or sheep, the locations where they enter the Death Valley are different, and the places where they suddenly disappear are also very different.

After entering the canyon, the pig that walked the farthest walked more than a hundred steps inside before an accident suddenly befell it.

Every time he used the ghost to conduct a test, Jiang Yao would feel dizzy in the end, and he could not completely extract the spiritual will that possessed those animals.

Fortunately, his real strength is that of an innate master, and both his spirit and will have already reached an extremely terrifying level.

The Liuchen Liuren Blood Sealing Technique seals himself, but only seals the upper limit of his strength, and does not have much impact on his total strength.

His spirit was damaged and he would at most suffer a splitting headache and feel uncomfortable for a while, but soon, his powerful spirit that had been sealed and belonged to the innate master level would flow over and make him recover again.

After arriving at the entrance of Death Valley, Jiang Yao and his team have conducted more than ten tests. Of the pigs and sheep they brought with them, only two are left.

Just now, Jiang Yao finally made a discovery.

Unfortunately, with the help of the ghost, he only saw the empty void in front of him, and suddenly a black line as thick as a hair appeared, and then, there was nothing else.

Sitting cross-legged on the flat stone, he tilted his head and looked worried.

If it is really as he guessed, that the space inside the Death Valley is disordered and filled with void cracks everywhere, he will be helpless and have no way to deal with it.

After all, let alone the little strength he had left after self-sealing, even at his prime, he still couldn't withstand the power of space.

"Mr. Jiang, Mr. Jiang..."

Except for the beginning, every time an accident occurred while driving the pigs and sheep into the Death Valley, Jiang Yao would hold his head with a painful look on his face for a long time.

Although Fang Weidong didn't understand what was going on in this scene, he saw it all.

At this moment, he stood straight and had been standing beside Jiang Yao for quite a while.

Seeing that his pale face had eased a lot, but he was still silent, as if he was in a trance. Fang Weidong was puzzled and tried to call him several times.

"Just thought of something, thinking about things."

"I'm fine, Xiao Fang." The voice calling out interrupted Jiang Yao's thoughts.

He raised his head, smiled at Fang Weidong and responded.

"I'm glad you're okay!" Fang Weidong grinned, breathing a sigh of relief.

"In terms of testing..." After a slight pause, he spoke again.

But before he could finish his words, he frowned and stopped talking.

Turning around, he looked straight toward the area to the southeast behind him.

The extremely shrill screams were faint and indistinct.

If Fang Weidong was the only one who heard the sudden scream, it could be explained as auditory hallucination.

But at this moment, except for him, everyone else present also turned around with a puzzled look on their faces and looked in that direction.

It’s a pity that the terrain in this area is extremely complex.

There are undulating terrain, jagged rocks, and overgrown shrubs. Originally there was no path here at all. It was only in recent times that more people walked here, and a winding path was forged.

The area at the entrance of Death Valley where Jiang Yao, Fang Weidong and others were stationed took a lot of time to clean up, making it a little flatter and wider.

They looked in the direction where the faint screams came from, but they didn't know how many obstacles blocked their view. They tried their best to see anything.

"Mr. Jiang, something seems to be happening over there."

"This place, apart from our camp stationed nearby, there is no human habitation within a hundred miles."

"Should we..." The screams had slowly subsided. Everyone looked into the distance for a long time, but were still confused and couldn't figure out what was going on.

After looking at each other, everyone's eyes fell on Jiang Yao.

Fang Weidong, their leader, even spoke tentatively and sought Jiang Yao's opinion.

Although he stopped abruptly before finishing his words, the meaning he wanted to express was already very clear.

Still sitting cross-legged on the flat stone, attracted by the screams, Jiang Yao also glanced towards the southeast, but it was really just a glance, and then he withdrew his gaze immediately.

Seeing Fang Weidong and the others all looking at him, he frowned and slowly said, "Everyone should clean up the snow in front of their own door and not worry about the frost on other people's roofs. This is a true saying once said by the ancients."

"In this world, there are things that ordinary people cannot understand. For example, some demons and monsters like to deliberately make some noise to attract people and then swallow them up."

"Before leaving the camp, I repeatedly told Captain Zhao and the others not to venture into this area without permission."

"I also heard the faint screams, but who knows what's going on over there?" "We've been busy for a long time, and we haven't solved our own problems yet, so we don't have time to meddle in other people's affairs."

"My advice, just ignore him and pretend you didn't hear it."

"Of course, if anyone is so kind as to want to go to the direction where the screams came from to see what's going on, I won't stop them either."

"After all, you are not my subordinates. You have your own freedom to do things in your own way!"

……

Jiang Yao never likes to meddle in matters that have nothing to do with him.

What he said at this moment actually made some sense and was not just nonsense.

Back then, when I was still in my hometown and had not yet fled to Hong Kong, didn’t the ghost I met in the jungle of Yangxi Town pretend to ask for help and trick people into giving them to the tiger as a snack?
Jiang Yao wasn't sure if this sudden scream was a similar situation.

He only knew that he had indeed told Zhao Zhengping and others not to come here rashly.

He doesn't like to cause trouble or meddle in other people's affairs, so naturally he won't be a pushover under the current circumstances.

"When we left the camp with you, Mr. Jiang, the leader above repeatedly told us to strictly follow your orders."

"The sudden bursts of shrill screams did make us feel a little confused."

"But since you said, Mr. Jiang, that there might be a trap over there and asked us not to meddle in other people's business, we naturally have no objection."

Fang Weidong nodded, straightened his body and saluted Jiang Yao.

In just a few breaths, the surrounding area had returned to silence again. The screams that could be faintly heard just now had completely subsided, as if they had never appeared and could no longer be heard at all.

Putting aside the little incident just now, Fang Weidong took a deep breath and spoke again: "There are only two sheep left. Mr. Jiang, do we need to continue the test?"

He had planned to ask Jiang Yao about this matter before.

However, he was interrupted before he could finish his words by a sudden scream from the southeast.

"Yeah!" Jiang Yao nodded and added, "It took a lot of effort to drive these pigs and sheep all the way here."

"No matter whether we can test out something, we can't drive the last two sheep back to the camp again!"

"Drive a sheep to the place where it walked more than a hundred steps forward during the previous test, and let it enter the Death Valley from there."

"As for the remaining one, just kill it and roast it whole to reward everyone!"

……

We left the camp early in the morning and rushed here.

It seemed like I didn't get much done, and before I knew it, it was already afternoon and several hours had passed.

Although Fang Weidong and others carried military rations with them to satisfy their hunger, no matter how good the food tasted, it could never compare to a whole roasted lamb.

"Ah..." Fang Weidong was stunned. Jiang Yao's words made him unable to react for a moment.

"What are you talking about? It's just a barbecue in the wild. This is normal, okay!"

“I don’t know how many times I’ve experienced similar things.”

"But before, I always slept alone in the wilderness. Now that you are here, it's just right. It will be more lively."

"I'm very familiar with barbecue, and my skills are pretty good. I have all the seasonings and other ingredients here. If no one knows how to roast a whole lamb, I'll do it myself later and let you taste my cooking skills!"

Having stood up, Jiang Yao patted Fang Weidong on the shoulder, grinned and spoke.

He can come and go freely in dangerous places like the Ghost Forest. When it comes to wilderness survival experience, in the real world, he is second to none.

While he was talking, he reached into his trouser pocket and actually took out some bottles and jars.

Not only salt, but also cumin, fennel, chili peppers and peppercorns, everything is included.

With a look of astonishment on his face, Fang Weidong really had no idea how such things could be put into that small trouser pocket. Unfortunately, due to his status, no matter how confused he was, he could only bury it in his heart and it was not convenient for him to ask more questions.

"We are the ones who can take care of things like barbecue. There is no need to trouble you, Mr. Jiang." After he came to his senses, he waved his hands repeatedly.

Then, he gave orders to the others present: "Monkey, you and Old Ghost, take care of the stronger goat."

"Xiao Wu, tie the rope around the other skinny goat and get ready to drive it into the Death Valley."

"The rest of you, if you have nothing to do, pick up some firewood nearby."

"Remember, be careful, just walk around, and try not to go too far."

……

As soon as he finished speaking, everyone nodded and started to act.

They stayed at the entrance of Death Valley for such a long time. Although it was just a test and they did not encounter any risks, the string in their hearts was always tense.

Although it was Jiang Yao's order to kill a sheep and roast it whole on the spot, it was definitely more interesting than driving the animals into the Death Valley for testing, and it would also allow them to relax a little.

In response to this, everyone was naturally high in spirits and full of energy.

"Xiao Wu, right!"

"Look, you've already tied the rope, don't hesitate, drive the sheep directly into the valley."

"Finish it earlier so that everyone can go home earlier!" Jiang Yao looked around with a faint smile on his face.

Soon, his sight fell on the guy called Xiao Wu by Fang Weidong.

It was true that he was very curious about the situation in Death Valley, but he was the kind of person who would not do anything without benefits.

With the help of Gui's possession, he only saw a void crack in the canyon that seemed to be able to bring him fatal danger. Apart from that, he did not see anything else.

Although he had the life-saving skill to hide his identity and could be used normally, in the current situation where he could only see the risks but no benefits, Jiang Yao, who had originally wanted to enter the Death Valley to take a look, had already given up this tempting idea.

He asked Xiao Wu to drive the sheep into the Death Valley. He also wanted to make a final attempt to see if the road he had previously traveled was really safe. With the help of the sheep's vision, he could take a closer look to see if there were any unknown monsters like twisted black shadows around.

After responding with an "OK", Xiao Wu immediately took action after receiving Jiang Yao's instructions.

Under his drive, the sheep had just stepped into the Death Valley. Jiang Yao, who had already left a spiritual mark on its body, suddenly possessed it, attached his spirit to it, and forcibly took over its body.

In terms of vision, goats are actually pretty good, but their field of vision is only a wide angle of 360 degrees. Jiang Yao is a human, so he would definitely feel a little uncomfortable seeing things through goat's eyes.

One step, two steps, three steps...

After walking a dozen steps, the wind howled, dust flew, and everything around began to darken.

Surrounded by the wind and sand, the scene outside the valley behind was already hazy and seemed a little unreal.

Controlling the goat's body, Jiang Yao continued to move forward along the safe path he had previously walked.

The dim sky does not have much impact on the goat's eyesight.

Not to mention the distance, Jiang Yao could definitely see clearly the situation within a dozen meters around him.

Every few steps he took, he would stop and look around carefully.

Unfortunately, apart from weathered rocks and the occasional rotten bones, Jiang Yao didn't see any living animals or plants in the Death Valley, let alone any tenacious wild grasses.

Calculating the distance silently, he walked more than a hundred steps and then stopped.

On the ground, scattered, still fresh pork, pork bones and pork offal caught his sight.

If nothing unexpected happens, these should be the remaining fragments of the pig that was driven in before and encountered the void crack here.

"That's in front..." Jiang Yao was hesitating whether to move sideways for a distance to see if he could avoid the crack in the void. His eyes accidentally swept across somewhere in front of him. He was stunned and froze on the spot with a look of surprise on his face.

In his sight, a few dozen meters ahead, there was a stone the size of a truck head, with a pale white color and a protruding shape like a steamed bun. On it, there were dots of golden light, flashing. In the surrounding darkness, it looked so conspicuous. (End of this chapter)
