Above the gray fog

When Lin Shan walked out of the ritual formation, the formation behind him slowly shrank and emitted a faint light, as if it had completed some kind of mission.

As the last ray of light disappeared, the formation completely disappeared, as if it had never existed.

Lin Shan suddenly felt his mouth go dry and his throat felt like it was on fire.

He squatted by the river, trying to scoop up water with his hands, but his fingers just touched the water. It felt like moisture was quickly being sucked into the body along his fingertips, like the dry earth absorbing long-lost nectar.

This process lasted for five minutes. It was only after the dryness of the mouth completely disappeared that Lin Shan slowly straightened up.

He looked thoughtfully at the flowing river water and realized that he was now in the lotus root body and his body could absorb water directly.

Because it is lotus root, it needs more water to maintain vitality than a normal body.

Lin Shan looked into the distance.

The green mountains are rolling, the river is shining silver in the sun, the grass is green along the river, and occasionally a few birds fly happily in the sky.

He didn't know where the scarecrow put him, but he thought it wouldn't be a dangerous place.

Lin Shan walked along the downstream direction of the river.

Whenever his body felt thirsty, he would put his hands in the river water to replenish water.

This body made of lotus roots does not feel hungry and only needs to be replenished with water to survive, which is suitable for Lin Shan now.

In this way, Lin Shan walked day after day.

During this period, he came to a river section covered with lotus flowers.

Lin Shan simply made himself a piece of clothing using lotus leaves, which was actually a grass skirt.

Always naked, somewhat unsightly.

Although he has now become a mortal, all the knowledge he knew in the past has not been lost.

Lin Shan understands everything from the origin of life to the weaving of grass skirts.

He couldn't feel the existence of extraordinary energy in this world, not because there really were no extraordinary abilities in this world, but because he could no longer touch those energies.

Even though he knows a lot of powerful knowledge, he can no longer use it.

Only various life skills can make the most difference at such times.

After walking along the river for two months, Lin Shan finally saw traces of civilization.

It was a road across the grassland, extending straight into the distance.

The road is flat and wide, and occasionally cars can be seen speeding on it, kicking up bursts of dust.

There are boundless grasslands on both sides of the road, and the sky in the distance connects with the earth. Under the blue sky and white clouds, it looks like a quiet and vast picture.

Lin Shan stared at the main road with deep eyes.

"Is this...a certain technological civilization?"

Lin Shan said to himself, while doubts arose in his heart.

Although many technological civilizations have similar vehicles, in Lin Shan's memory, cars of this shape are the only ones on earth.

This must not be the earth. The earth has been integrated into the gray fog universe and was destroyed along with the gray fog.

"Is it a similar civilization, or... a similar universe and space?"

Lin Shan thought.

Now he clearly understands that concepts such as multi-dimensional space-time and parallel universes exist.

Even if this place was really called Earth, Lin Shan wouldn't be surprised.

What does it mean that the Scarecrow sent him here...?

After thinking for a while, Lin Shan probably understood the scarecrow's intention.

Human beings mostly live in groups.

The new life he wants will be a lot less interesting if he is not accompanied by the same kind of people.

After walking alone on the grassland for two months, Lin Shan felt a little bored.

The Scarecrow probably predicted this in advance and sent him to a place similar to the earth.

From the beginning to the end, he never hated others of his kind.

The reason why he avoided the human race was because of the fate imposed on him by the human race.

"The environment is similar to the Earth, and it's pretty good. Just think that traveling through the gray fog before was just a dream..." Thinking silently in his heart, Lin Shan quickened his pace and walked towards the road.

Relying on his past memories on Earth, he waved to the passing vehicles.

At the same time, he shouted: "Master! Stop!!!"

Finally, a van stopped in front of him.

The driver opened the window and looked at Lin Shan suspiciously, "Buy it with a card, Jiliha's Shaka Benla?"

Lin Shan was a little dumbfounded. He almost forgot about the language barrier.

"I'm lost, can you take me to a place with people?" Although he knew that the other party couldn't understand, he still tried to communicate.

The driver frowned and asked again, "Saning is really good at watching Hasa? But Hadongdan is wrong?"

Lin Shan could only tell that the other party was asking a question, but he didn't understand the specific content at all.

He spread his hands and said, "I don't understand."

He thought of using gestures to communicate and began to make gestures: pointing to his chest, then pointing into the distance, then making a walking gesture, and finally using his fingers to draw the shape of a house, indicating that he wanted to go to the town.

The man in the car looked at his gesture, and suddenly his expression changed, as if he thought of something frightening. He stepped on the accelerator, and the car sped away, leaving Lin Shan standing there with a dull look on his face.

Lin Shan took a few breaths of exhaust and suddenly felt uncomfortable all over.

If he walked along this road, he would definitely find a gathering place of civilization, but before he reached the end, his body might die of thirst.

This lotus root body needs water to replenish vitality, and he can't leave the water source too far.

Although he can replace his body at will in theory, theory is always theory.

Without the assistance of extraordinary power, replacement may not be successful.

When he was on the road before, Lin Shan tried to get rid of the lotus root body, and found that after losing his body, he became a floating memory, and he couldn't even interfere with reality.

Without a body to rely on, he might become a bystander permanently.

Before he was sure that he could replace his body, Lin Shan didn't dare to easily abandon this lotus root body.

In the following time, Lin Shan could only continue to wave his arms and intercept cars passing by the roadside.

After seeing Lin Shan's dress, most vehicles not only showed no signs of stopping, but stepped on the accelerator and accelerated away, as if they had seen a flood beast.

A small number of vehicles would curiously open the window when passing by Lin Shan, and exchange a few words with Lin Shan. After finding that they could not communicate, they also left quickly like the first car.

Many vehicles slowed down and drove to Lin Shan's side, throwing a few bags of bread and biscuits out of the window.

Faced with this situation, Lin Shan couldn't help but smile bitterly.

Suddenly, he had an idea and decided to change a method.

He raised his hands high and used exaggerated movements and expressions to intercept roadside vehicles.

After a while, a red car slowed down and approached Lin Shan. The driver was a young girl. She opened the window and looked at Lin Shan with curious eyes.

"What's the series?" Her tone was full of curiosity and kindness.

Lin Shan realized that the opportunity had come. He immediately pointed at himself, then pointed to the distance, then made a driving gesture, and finally put his hands together and looked at the girl with a pleading face.

The girl's face changed and she stepped on the accelerator hard.
