Chapter 24: The Dilemma
Ning Xiaodao's sudden appearance relieved the three of them a little, and the old village chief hurriedly ordered: "Luo Meng, you take Xiaodao to retreat first, and Luo Jun and I will look for it again!"
Luo Meng shook his head and said: "Qingfeng and Dali are both smart people, they must have started to rush back, and it is no longer of much use for you to stay here." ”
Luo Jun said: "The signal has been sent, and it stands to reason that as long as it is around here, it will definitely come......"
At this moment, a faint roar came, which was the signal of a critical situation.
"They're over there!"
The old village chief said with a somewhat solemn look in his eyes: "Luo Meng, you take the trail and rush back to the point, Luo Jun and I will go to pick it up, if the two of us don't appear in time within five minutes, you will continue to retreat and hide directly in the underground vault." ”
Luo Meng also knew that the situation was critical, so he grabbed Ning Xiaodao's arm with one hand and began to rush back.
Originally, he wanted to run back with his own strength, but he found that his speed was not at the same level as Luo Meng's, and thanks to the other party's advanced cultivation and fast enough, their chances of survival were a few points higher.
"Is this the speed of the 'Dragon Gate Realm'? It's too fast!"
However, it didn't take long for him to realize that it was not that simple, and it was not uncommon to leap on the ground in the mountains and forests, and it was strange that he could not slow down the slightest speed when encountering any obstacles, which was obviously a manifestation of practicing a kind of body method.
Ning Xiaodao knew that he was envious.
Before he came to this world, he fantasized that his greatest ability was to learn "Ling Bo Weibu", so that all enemies could not defeat him, but after coming here, the more he came into contact with it, the more he knew the importance of an escape secret technique.
I secretly made up my mind in my heart: I must learn a body method, and the more advanced the better.
Naturally, Luojiacun's library does not store exercises and secret techniques, so his understanding of these things is limited to books, but it does not destroy his imagination.
After waiting anxiously for more than three minutes at the first retreat point, four people finally came, but looking at the situation, Luo Qingfeng and Luo Dali seemed to have been injured a lot, and the old village chief said with a solemn look in his eyes: "Things are a little bad, we have to retreat quickly." ”
Luo Jun said in a deep voice: "In the past, the pioneers of the riot in the 'Ten Thousand Spirit Beast Tide' were all those low-level group spirit beasts, but this time it is different, I have already seen that the spirit beasts that far exceed our strength are among them, which is very abnormal!"
Luo Meng guessed: "Could it be related to a vision?"
"Either way, let's get back to the underground vault first. I hope they can get out safely!"
"They have a spirit boat, so they will naturally be faster than us!"
"But there are more flying spirit beasts than ever before, and they are even stronger, I hope they can be safe. ”
The three masters of the "Dragon Gate Realm" desperately rushed back, and Ning Xiaodao finally realized what speed was again, it turned out that Luo Meng's previous speed was not his limit.
The road back is not smooth, there will always be some spirit beasts on a rampage, but in the face of the full strength of the three "Dragon Gate Realm", these lower-level spirit beasts can only spill a cavity of beast blood, whining and wailing, and surrendering.
Seeing Luojia Village from afar, Ning Xiaodao didn't know why he felt a little relieved, as if this inconspicuous small village in front of him could shelter him from the wind and rain and help him resist all external injuries.
The ground under his feet is like a cow turning over, becoming more and more restless, that is, the realm strength of the three old village chiefs is enough, if it is replaced by Ning Xiaodao and the three of them, let alone want to run forward, I am afraid that it will be a little difficult even to stand still.
There are not many people left in the village, and they have also withdrawn to the underground vault one step earlier, and as for the guardian array, the old village chief can't start it before he returns.
Luojia Village usually calculates the consumption of life, but in the face of such a torrent of heaven and earth, the family wealth stored in the past is also smashed into this guardian circle at any cost.
After the guardian circle was fully operational, it radiated with the third-level spirit gathering tower as the center, guarding the entire village.
The guardian cover buckled upside down, separating the inner and outer worlds, and in an instant, the ears were quiet and the feet were stable.
Ning Xiaodao stared at the outside world with wide eyes, only to see that the spirit beasts outside were like locusts passing through, countless and overwhelming, but he couldn't feel any movement in the protective cover, as if he was enjoying a mime.
The earth cracked under the feet of the huge spirit beast, and was crushed into a cloud of dust by the followers, and the spirit beasts that occasionally crashed into the guardian cover were also torn apart by the inspired sword qi.
I don't know that the so-called spirit beasts are frantically impacting everything in front of them, including the village under the guardian cover, and the blood of the sword qi that is scattered and stimulated, but after all, the magic circle still lacks people to guide, and the level of the formation is not too high, there have been slight waves, if it is a long time, there are many spirit beasts impacted, or a higher-level spirit beast comes, it is impossible to say that it will face annihilation.
Seeing this, the old village chief said with a slight sadness: "As long as there are people, the village can still be established again! Let's go!"
Luo Jun and Luo Meng, who were born and grew up in Si, are familiar with every grass and tree, but now they can only watch everything they are familiar with, and the pain in their hearts is needless to say.
The people in the underground vault were greatly relieved when they saw the old village chief coming back, but when they saw Ning Xiaodao, Luo Qingfeng and Luo Dali, they were worried again.
The old village chief understood what everyone was worried about, and comforted: "Everyone else evacuated first, and was taken out by Qingyi with the spirit boat, and they are all safe!"
Not being a parent, not understanding what their children mean to them.
"That's good, that's good!
This was the first thought, but it didn't take long for this thought to give rise to other thoughts.
"I don't know how they're doing now, where are they, are they safe? Qingyi should take care of them, right?"
The old village chief didn't say anything more, and called Shangning Xiaodao to go and make a move.
Although Luo Qingfeng and Luo Dali have undergone the most basic treatment, they do not cure the root cause, and they still need some follow-up recuperation.
After the old village chief instructed him, he handed over the follow-up medical work of the two to Ning Xiaodao.
"Where the hell have you two gone, and why are you so badly injured?"
Luo Dali was not worried about the predicament in front of him at all, and laughed: "Our harvest this time is not small, we can't say that we can save up the materials to advance to the 'Lingtai Realm'!"
Luo Qingfeng smiled bitterly: "Don't listen to his bragging, but we have really good luck going out this time, and we have found several key materials, but if we want to cast a high-quality 'spirit platform', I'm afraid we have to wait a little longer!"
Ning Xiaodao said with a smile: "I have gained a lot from going out this time. ”
He deliberately paused, waited for Luo Dali, and asked, "What harvest?"
Ning Xiaodao said with a smile: "I just happened to encounter a fight between spirit beasts, and I missed it!"
"Luck is so good!"
Luo Qingfeng said softly: "It's normal to fight between spirit beasts, but to have the courage to wait for this opportunity is not pure luck." ”
As he spoke, a violent roar was heard, followed by a burst of "click" sound overhead.
The old village chief shouted in a deep voice: "Come in with me!"
The pale faces hurriedly walked into another secret room, and then saw the old village chief spill a large "crystal shield", instantly activating the guardian array of this secret room, and before it was finished, he took out an antique copper umbrella in the storage bag, and he didn't know what to do.
Luo Meng said in a deep voice: "Can't even those few guardian arrays be prevented?"
Luo Jun nodded and said, "This 'Ten Thousand Spirit Beast Tide' is far more than in the past, could it be related to the fire that fell that day?"
Although the old village chief said that he had seen and heard the most, he had never seen such a vision, and said with a wry smile: "I said a long time ago that when I was young, I must go out and see the big world more, but you are just reluctant!"
They don't regret their choice, they just feel that they haven't done enough.
Ning Xiaodao said softly: "I have seen this fire falling from the sky, and it seems that it is nothing remarkable. ”
Luo Qingfeng said: "Looking at the vision, it seems to be very big, but the power is extremely small. ”
The old village chief shook his head and said solemnly: "You can't underestimate it!"
Everyone talked to resolve the anxiety and panic at this time, but they could not stop the changes in the outside world.
A series of explosions of "boom boom" completely broke the guardian array in the village, and then, the top of the head began to shake violently, and the copper umbrella in the old village chief's hand became tighter and tighter.
There was a crack sound of "click, click, click", and cracks of different sizes appeared throughout the underground vault, and even the secret room they were in was affected.
Ning Xiaodao felt thousands of drummers beating drums in his ears, and the roar made him fall into silence completely, cold sweat broke out densely in his vest, and his fingers unconsciously moved to his storage bag, as if there was something there that could make him feel safe.
The rest of the underground vault had begun to crumble and collapse, and the secret room where they were located was squeezed in all directions, and the consumption of the "crystal shield" on the secret room formation began to rise violently.
Even the old village chief, who had always been calm and reliable, began to show beads of sweat on his forehead, and the copper umbrella in his hand seemed to be ready to open at any time.
The incessant roar lingered in everyone's ears, and the solemn and somewhat oppressive atmosphere made everyone feel that it was difficult to breathe, and they felt that they were about to go crazy!
When death is approaching step by step, but you don't know how to deal with it, you will find that the strength you thought you were was not as tenacious as you thought.
Ning Xiaodao had watched a lot of TV and wilderness survival articles, and knew how those people dealt with desperate situations, but the situation was similar, but the circumstances were different, so he decided to give it a try.
He took out a piece of treasure from the storage bag, and then started cutting directly in front of everyone, and asked everyone for advice when he didn't understand, of course, he would speak louder.
After a long time, everyone who was affected by emotions seemed to have found something to do, no longer fell into self-panic, and began to help Ning Xiaodao cut the spirit beast materials, or directly start to marinate the spirit beast meat on the side.
Seeing more and more spirit beast materials, even the old village chief was surprised, and they couldn't figure out how these came to be, as for Luo Qingfeng and Luo Dali, their jaws dropped even more, and they finally understood what the "spirit beast fighting" mentioned earlier was all about.
