Chapter 49: Ashen monster

In the city of Shuofang, buildings were like forests, with dozens of buildings crowded together to form clusters of buildings.

Between the clusters of buildings, there were factories, some of which burned glass, some smelted minerals, and some cast and refined. Different factories had different divisions of labor.

The Dust Disaster Factory was located on the edge of Shuofang City, and there were also tall buildings nearby. Li Muge said, "These buildings are called 'you lou' and they are where the poor people in the city live. The word 'you' means to raise animals in captivity, and 'you lou' is where the lower class people live. The houses here are old, broken, small, and very crowded. Those who live here are poor like me, some are scholars from the school, and some are from the countryside trying to make a living."

He paused for a moment, hesitated, and then asked, "There are also many monsters who hide here in the city. Yun Shidi, what kind of monster are you?"

"I'm really not a monster," Su Yun said helplessly.

"It doesn't matter if you are a monster. I can tell that you are probably a wild buffalo monster. Actually, there are some junior brothers in my Wen Chang Academy who are monsters too. But it's not the same in other academies. They are mostly old scholars who shout and kill monsters."

Li Muge walked ahead, and the snow grew heavier, making Shuofang City look misty.

"I have seen many monsters in the city. The family next door to me seems to be all monsters... strange, why is there such a heavy snowfall?" Li Muge looked up at the sky in surprise. "Shuofang City doesn't usually have such heavy snow at this time of year. This snowfall is strange."

He shook his head.

Hua Hu suddenly said, "Xiao Yun, when humans and demons were born 150 years ago, it was also during a heavy snowfall that sealed the mountains."

Su Yun's heart trembled.

According to the ancient book Zang Long Ling, when the Academy Scholar Ge Long entered the Zang Long Ling to summon the dragon spirit, there was also a sudden heavy snowfall that prevented them from leaving.

"After the humans and demons came out of the Zang Long Ling, there was also a heavy snowfall in Tian Shi Yuan. Now it's Shuofang City's turn."

Su Yun looked up at the sky and saw that the snowflakes were getting bigger and bigger, each one as big as a palm, fluttering down. "It looks like the whole village has come to Shuofang City for dinner. And the leader of the Tian Dao Academy, he should also be in Shuofang City, right? In the past 150 years, he has changed his appearance, but his skills are extraordinary and cannot be hidden. If he stayed in Shuofang, he should be the most powerful person in the city today."

Of course, it was also possible that the leader of the Tian Dao Academy did not stay in Shuofang after leaving Tian Shi Yuan.

"Yun Shidi, Hua Shidi, look, the Dust Disaster Factory is ahead," Li Muge pointed ahead and smiled.

Su Yun suppressed his wandering thoughts and looked in the direction he was pointing.

He was also curious about the Dust Disaster Factory.

In Li Muge's words, Shuofang was a city built on dust disasters, and the contribution of the Dust Disaster Factory to Shuofang was immeasurable!

Ahead, next to the official road, was a very large factory, covering an area of ??about thousands of acres. The factory was built on flat ground, with a mountain behind it. The houses in the factory were flat and there were no high-rise buildings.But the mountain was not big, and it had already been dug halfway. There were several openings on the mountain wall that were several zhangs high.

The factory was brightly lit, and there were some ox carts transporting the robbed ashes passing by them at the entrance. These carts were driving in the ruts and had an astonishing load capacity. A small cart of robbed ashes weighed thousands of jin and was creaking under the weight!

Each mining cart had an ox pulling it in front, and there were workers pushing it from behind, which was very laborious.

Su Yun looked at the cart and saw that the robbed ashes were not ash but large pieces of rock. The snow was falling heavily, and the robbed ashes were covered with a layer of white, but it could still be seen that the robbed ashes were black, with a black-golden luster.

Was it this strange thing that supported Shuofang City?

Su Yun was curious.

.

The workers who dug the robbed ashes were bare-chested in this winter, covered in the dust of the robbed ashes, and dyed black. When snow fell on them, it melted and flowed down with their sweat.

Sweat and blood mixed with black dust, and where it slid, their skin's original color would be revealed.

"These robbed ashes are mined and sent directly to various kilns."

Li Muge whispered, "Some of the people here come from the countryside of Shuofang, and some are monsters from the uninhabited areas of Tian Shi Yuan. They have nowhere to make a living in the city and can only do hard labor. The work at the robbed ashes factory is tiring, dirty, and dangerous, and the city people are unwilling to do it."

Su Yun and Hua Hu stopped and looked around. Su Yun silently thought, "I heard people from the neighboring village say that their child so-and-so worked in the city and earned a lot of money, living a good life. It must be these monsters, deceiving their parents and not wanting them to worry."

Just as he was thinking this, there was suddenly a commotion from the robbed ashes factory. Someone shouted, "A monster has come out of the robbed ashes!"

Countless dark workers in the mine panicked and ran out, crying and shouting. Some fell and crawled away, and many feet trampled them, leaving them motionless, not knowing if they were dead or alive.

The workers who were pushing the mining carts were also startled and quickly let go of the carts and ran away, shouting, "The robbed ashes monster is eating people!"

"Robbed ashes monster?"

Su Yun looked around and saw that a mining cave on the half of the mountain suddenly exploded with a bang, and debris flew everywhere. A monster of almost the same color as the robbed ashes suddenly flew out, sticking to the ground and flying, grabbing a person and falling on a mining cart.

The mining cart shook, and there was a chewing sound coming from it. Blood flowed out from under the cart.

Soon, another black monster flew up from the mining cart and fell on the ox pulling the cart in front, and then with a whoosh, the ox and the mining cart were lifted into the sky!

"What great strength!" Su Yun's face changed slightly as he looked up at the sky, but he couldn't see where the monster was in the pitch-black sky.

The mining cart fell from the sky with a loud noise, and the robbed ashes scattered everywhere.

The sound of a cow mooing came from the sky, and then there was a rain of blood falling. The next moment, a bloody cow skeleton fell not far from the mining cart.

Su Yun's face changed slightly, and he saw miners running away everywhere, rushing towards the gate of the mine.From time to time, there were screams coming from the crowd, and people were constantly being grabbed and eaten by monsters while dancing in the air! The monsters were as black as the disaster ash, with the cover of night, and it was impossible to see where the monsters were!

Li Muge's face also changed, and he quickly dropped all the big and small packages and rushed towards the factory, shouting, "The disaster ash monster has appeared again? Yun, Hua junior brother, you stay here, that monster is very dangerous!"

Su Yun closed his eyes and suddenly sensed a group of blood flying in the sky, flying towards them!

They were facing the gate, and the workers in the mine were rushing towards them like a tide!

Obviously, the monster's goal was to block the gate, so that no one could escape from the disaster ash factory and become its food!

Su Yun's eyes twitched, and he said in a deep voice, "Second brother, take Xiaofan and the others to the hunting tower first, and wait for me and Senior Brother Muge."

Hua Hu immediately grabbed Qing Qiuyue, threw the little girl on his neck, and pulled Hu Buping and Li Xiaofan towards the hunting tower.

Su Yun closed his eyes and faced the crowd that was surging like a tide.

Some people in the crowd had begun to transform while running away, some had pig faces and human bodies, some had monkey heads and brains, some had wolf heads and human bodies, some had heads with sheep horns, and there were many different kinds, crossing the crowd and running wildly.

The miners around them were surprisingly used to it, apparently knowing the identity of the partners who worked with them.

In Su Yun's blood sensing, the disaster ash monster rushing towards them in the sky had blood like a wheel, with a small dot in the middle, like the axis of a wheel, and the spokes were connected between the axis and the wheel.

Based solely on blood, it was impossible to distinguish the specific form of the disaster ash monster. Blood sensing could only judge the shape of the monster's blood, and it was easy to make mistakes.

But the disaster ash monster was the same color as the dark sky and could not be observed with the naked eye. Only by sensing the blood could its position be distinguished!

The disaster ash monster flew towards them from the air, and in Su Yun's blood sensing, he could "see" the monster falling, as if it was going to crash to the ground, but it did not land, but whistled towards them along the ground!

"It has wings, but there is no blood circulation in the wings, so the wings did not appear in my blood sensing." Su Yun made a judgment in a flash.

At this time, Li Muge had already rushed into the mine, and he obviously did not know how to sense blood, and the disaster ash monster was black, so he did not notice that the monster had already arrived at the gate of the disaster ash factory!

Now everything was in chaos, and the noise was deafening, and Su Yun could not inform him.

Boom!

A loud noise came, and the disaster ash monster hit the mine car parked outside the mine gate. The mine car full of disaster ash was hit and rolled towards them.

Su Yun faced the rolling mine car and kept backing away. The disaster ash in the mine car had already scattered everywhere, and the smoke filled the air, obstructing his vision.

He simply closed his eyes, activated the Hong Furnace Transformation, and his blood suddenly rose to the extreme, and the muscles on his back bulged, also raising his strength to the extreme!

He suddenly stopped his footsteps, turned around, and kicked backwards with one foot.

Swinging Dragon Tail!The mining cart made a loud bang and stopped on the spot, with dust and smoke rising.

There were screams and chaos at the entrance of the mine, with people in a frenzy.

As the smoke gradually dispersed, Su Yun opened his eyes and saw a tall figure standing in the midst of the smoke, the Grim Grey Monster.

The Grim Grey Monster looked like a human, with arms and legs, but was much taller and had wings spanning several zhangs, bat-like wings made of flesh.

His feet were like eagle claws, extremely sharp, but the strangest thing was that his chest bone was actually on the outside!

Even stranger, the bones in his chest were distributed like the spokes of a wheel!

As Su Yun sensed his blood and qi, the bones in the Grim Grey Monster's chest were the most concentrated, like the axle of a wheel, while the ribs were like the spokes, connected to the axle and extending in all directions.

This kind of strange structure was something he had never seen before!

"In my blood and qi sensing, the blood and qi contained in its bones are the strongest. Could it be that its bones are hollow? Does its blood flow from its bones?" Su Yun was extremely surprised. "There are no monsters like this in the countryside! The Paoxiao from Linyi Village was right, the steel forests in the cities are much more dangerous than the tree forests in the countryside, with more man-eating monsters!"

The monster turned around and looked at him, its eyes a gray-white color with no pupils visible.
