Don’t panic when the apocalypse comes, stock up on food first and then guns

Chen Meiyu stared at Jiang You's hand blankly, her eyes full of disbelief.

"You... When did you learn to control fire?"

“Do you still need to learn?”

Jiang You smiled and said, "They are part of my body, just like my left and right hands, they are naturally under my control!"

She glanced at the monsters around her that were clearly distancing themselves from her.

"Who else wants to give it a try now?"

The monsters whimpered and retreated, too afraid to move forward.

However, there were still two tough monsters who attacked Jiang You from the side.

But after these two attackers were turned into skin and bones and thrown to the ground by Jiang You, almost all the monsters became obedient.

In nature, only the fittest survive.

In particular, beasts also have their own rules.

Even if you become the king of the wolf pack, you still have to worry about being overthrown by the new and strong beasts behind you.

But obviously, this time the wolf pack did not successfully complete the succession and let the new king replace the old king.

After losing several monsters in a test, Chen Meiyu finally confirmed her attitude towards Jiang You.

Jiang You was not disgusted by Chen Meiyu's probing intentions.

Similarly, Chen Meiyu did not have much resentment towards Jiang You for ruthlessly killing several monsters.

On the contrary, her eyes lit up because of the super control over the fire that Jiang You demonstrated, and she felt more confident about this trip to the Land of Origin.

She remembered everything in the abyss, so she was able to predict in advance that the monsters in Chenjia Village would be more powerful after completing their deformation in the abyss than on the ground.

However, it was impossible for Jiang You to predict all this in advance.

Chen Meiyu originally thought that even if Jiang You could successfully suppress the other monsters this time, he would definitely pay a certain price, but she didn't expect that she seemed to have anticipated it.

Already prepared.

At this moment, Chen Meiyu suddenly understood why Huozhan chose Jiang You. She was like the weeds on the Gobi Desert, desperately absorbing every drop of water that fell around her.

The journey to the native land was not smooth.

The jungle looked dotted with silver and very dreamy.

But the more beautiful something is, the more dangerous it is.

Those insects fluttering in the jungle without any warning will open their bloody mouths and rush towards you at any time the moment you get close.

The curled leaves of the shy mimosa are filled with crushed bones.

Gently rising and falling in the crowns of the lush green trees are ugly and huge lungs that are breathing.

The ferns on the ground have sharp teeth.

The venom sprayed by the giant pitcher plant can instantly melt a person into liquid along with skin and bones.

Chen Meiyu is familiar with everything in the abyss and tries her best to lead everyone to avoid crises, but she is not always able to successfully avoid all crises.

There was only a huge moon in the abyss, hanging high in the sky. It seemed to be getting closer and closer to them, yet it seemed as if nothing had changed.

There is no sunrise or sunset in the abyss, nor is there day or night.

They didn't know how long they had been walking.

Maybe it was a day, maybe it was a month, no one could calculate the time clearly.

When we first entered the abyss, there were more than fifty villagers from Chenjia Village.

However, more than a dozen people have died before they even reached the place of origin.

Jiang You was not worried that the death of these monsters would affect the integrity because Red Eyes told her before leaving.

The existence of monsters is constant and will neither increase nor decrease.

In other words, the power of the dead monsters that were split in Chenjia Village will be divided among the other living monsters.

This means that the more monsters that die, the stronger the monsters that survive will be.

If all the monsters in Chenjia Village were killed and only Chen Meiyu was left, she would automatically absorb the power of all other monsters and become a truly complete monster.

But at that time, the real monster resurrected, and that was when Chen Meiyu disappeared.

Chen Meiyu would certainly not allow this result to happen.

The stone knife and the moonlight show the way.

Time passed slowly, and the shadows of several people were stretched longer and longer in the moonlight.

A big river finally appeared in front of everyone.

But to be precise, Jiang You didn't know whether he should call what he saw in front of him a river.

She had heard the name of Heihe many times from Hongyan before, and always thought that Heihe was just black water, or the name of a river.

But I never thought Heihe would be like this.

Flowing in the wide, winding river is thick, black magma.

Exactly the same as Black Flame.

"Meow!"

Da Zhuang's paws stopped at the shore and he refused to move forward even a step, and he kept making sharp cat sounds from his mouth.

Obviously, he is very afraid of the Black River.

Jiang You asked, "Is this the Black River?"

This question is directed to Chen Meiyu.

Others also turned their eyes to Chen Meiyu.

Chen Meiyu nodded, with infinite nostalgia in her eyes, "Yes, this is the Black River. On the other side of the Black River is the origin of the land, where you want to go."

Jiang You looked across the river, but there was nothing there except a barren grassland.

She squatted down, thought for a few seconds, then reached her hand into the river and scooped up the fish gently.

The sticky black magma immediately accumulated in his hand. As his wrist was raised, the magma slowly flowed out from between his fingers, forming thin threads in the air and falling back into the river.

This familiar touch made Jiang You certain that this was Black Flame.

"Is all the flames flowing in this river black?"

She looked at Chen Meiyu with some surprise.

Chen Meiyu nodded, "Yes, there is black flame in it."

“I remember that the High Priest and Red Eyes both said that in order to survive the Black Flame, one needs a Black Flame Heart to continuously regenerate. Otherwise, one will quickly devour and digest oneself until death.

The Black Flame Heart is clearly in Longshan now, so why are there so many black flames in this river?"

"Heart of Black Flame?"

Hearing these words, Chen Meiyu spoke with some amusement.

“There are plenty of these things at the bottom of the river. Since you are not afraid of the black flames, why not jump into the river and fish them out?

The so-called heart of darkness is nothing but stones in the black river. There are stones everywhere down there, as many as you want."

The Black Flame Heart, which the high priest treasured as a treasure, turned out to be just a stone in the river.

Hear this.

Jiang You suddenly didn't know what to think.

She had experienced the power of the black flame. Even if it was herself, all her supernatural powers would disappear if she entered the Black Flame Prison.

If what Chen Meiyu said was true, a small piece of riverbed stone could have such enormous power.

And what a terrifying existence is this wide black river before us?

The Black River is a barrier to the Land of Origin. Only by crossing the Black River can one reach the Land of Origin.

If such a powerful and terrifying thing is only used as a barrier, then what kind of terrifying existence is that on the other side of the river?
