Chapter 072: The Sound of Killing

At this time, in the middle of the farmland in Shaoxian County, on the second and third floors of the five stone forts, bright candles were burning on the windowsills around them, and the people inside took turns monitoring the movements in the crops.

The stone fort is square, about ten zhang long and wide, and each floor is half a zhang high. There are no windows on the ground floor, except for a heavy wooden door, which is used to store grain and farm tools. The upper two floors are the places to live, and there is a window hole every other zhang.

In those days, the materials used to build these forts were taken from the ruins of Shaoxian, so the walls were very irregular. There are molded bricks, there are broken stones, there are large and small, concave and convex, smooth and rough, there are rounded and angular edges, and the colors are mottled, like the graffiti that children fill with stones at will.

Regardless of the appearance, its firmness is not inferior at all, because the masonry is mixed and glutinous with lime mortar and glutinous rice juice, which has high strength.

The ground floor and walls of the ground floor have also been specially treated to prevent moisture. The wooden planks of the interior walls were filled with grass and wood ash, and the floor was covered with a layer of gravel, filled with sand, covered with grass ash and grain bran, covered with wooden planks, and then covered with straw mats. In this way, the grain can be stored in a pile, and it will not go bad for a long time.

Each battalion consisted of six hundred-man teams, five of which were responsible for working in the fields and were nicknamed "planing teams"; the remaining ones were carefully selected strong men who were responsible for patrolling and guarding, and were privately called "overseers." On weekdays, the food team each occupies a stone fort, and lives with a Shi of the overseer team, which is under the control of a Reality Realm monk.

After being besieged by monsters for several days, the most stressful were those True Realm cultivators, and among them, Shu Qingxiao had the most difficult time. The more than 120 people he led were killed and wounded by the attack of eight magicians who fell from the sky, and their combat strength was greatly weakened.

The second layer of the stone castle was broken into a large hole two zhang wide, and the bloody gas that spread out caused the monsters to come this way, taking this stone castle as the first target.

The monsters lurking in the fields will attack every once in a while, and if they can't succeed, they will approach silently, and at some point they will climb up along the walls. Therefore, the people in the stone fort must always be nervous.

The wails of the wounded make people panic, but they are a stimulant for the monsters. The large hole on the second floor is a great outlet, and the wind in the fields seems to squeeze in from here, blowing headaches.

Qingxiao not only had to reassign tasks to the team that lacked numbers, solve problems such as daily diet and rest, and send people to take care of the wounded, but also arrange for people to keep an eye on the windows on the second and third floors, and even serve the eight white people with good food and drink, ensuring their nutrition and rest to restore their magic power.

Because their ranged attacks are the safest and most effective means of defense, monsters need to lend a helping hand when they attack other stone forts. Qingxiao hadn't closed his eyes for a few days and nights, and he was exhausted from many things.

Among the eight white men, the most powerful attack was the red-haired man named Hugo, who was extremely powerful in his thunder magic, and the large hole in the wall of the second floor of the stone castle was due to him. The girl with long curly blond hair was his companion, Avril Lavigne, who had not been involved in the attack on the Stonekeep. There were also four men and two women, all young people in their twenties.

It is a cultivator with outstanding talents, and it is also remarkable to step into the Dragon Seeking Realm at the age of twenty, but the Dragon Seeking Realm cultivators are by no means as strong as them. Frost, fireballs, thunderstorms, hurricanes, and so on and so on that monsters are hit even if they don't die.

There is also an earth magician who can gather soil into a wall and split the ground into a beggar. If it weren't for the fact that his attainments hadn't reached the point of dismantling the man-made brick walls, I'm afraid these five fortresses would have collapsed long ago.

Although these people are the main culprits in this crisis, Qingxiao has to admire their strength. He secretly deduced that if he faced the red-haired man, the victory would be three-seven, and the third would be his. Of course, if a close battle broke out, he was confident that he would take his life unscathed.

In order to atone for their sins, the magicians tried their best to repel the monsters again and again, and more than a hundred died under their spells. But every day, monsters from afar are attracted by the surging demonic energy and blood energy, and they are constantly replenished. Now the number of people gathered in the fields of crops has increased rather than decreased.

And after holding on for so long, their physical strength and magic power are almost exhausted, at least tonight, it won't play a big role.

Whenever Qingxiao felt that he couldn't support it, he would think of all the things he had with Zini, and he hated to break the broken leg of the Taoist who had killed her.

He sat on the edge of the hole in the wall, hoping that the sect master would soon come with a large army to relieve the siege, so that he could go back to meet his sweetheart who he had admired for many years. Count the hours, and it's time to come. He is also convinced that he will find a way to restore Zini to its original state.

On the dark and lonely grain road in the distance, there were grains of fire, who was not the rescuer from Wuliang Mountain?

"Quick, wake everyone up, get ready for battle!" the Sect Master is here!" Qingxiao excitedly shouted to several of his subordinates, "Open the gate and attract the attention of the monsters!"

After a while, the stone fort was noisy and brightly lit. Everyone knew that they were about to be saved, but they were bound to go through a bloody battle, and they were both happy and trembling. One by one, they quickly got up from the Chase bunk, dressed themselves, and picked up their weapons.

The disturbed monsters got up from the haystacks, ditches, and ponds in the fields, and stood watching. The body with white flesh and black lines dripping muddy water, under the moonlight, seems to be the filthiest thing that should not have been born in this world.

"Crunchβ€”"

The wooden door that they had tried to break through day and night was cracked, and several people came out, shouting loudly. The fresh prey in front of him provoked the most primitive appetite of the monster, and one after another black shadows galloped forward like a vicious wolf out of a cage.

There were only a few dozen paces left for the monsters that rushed to the front, and the few people who came out to be bait hurriedly retreated into the stone castle and closed the wooden door with a "bang".

Monsters swarmed and frantically gnawed at the wooden door. Several spears with a length of more than a foot and a half stretched out from the window above, and kept beckoning to the monster, quickly stabbing down and lifting it so as not to be hooked or bitten off by the monster.

The other four stone forts also understood their intentions and followed suit, opening their doors to lure demons. After a while, the monsters scattered in the field thought that a feast had started here, and they all rushed over. According to a rough estimate, there were as many as five or six hundred monsters entering the plum blossom-shaped stone castle array.

Some are besieging the gates, some are climbing up the uneven walls, and more are huddled in the sea of flesh with their teeth and claws. Spears are used to poke at the ground, and guns and "chopping throats" are used to pick at walls. When he couldn't cope with it, he used a waste sack to fill the bran husk and threw it down in a raging fire.

"Order, fire extinguisher. ”

Fuyaozi had already led the people to the end of the grain road, and there was a one-zhang wide field dirt road in front of him leading to the stone castle group eight hundred steps away. On both sides is a mess of crops, which is sad to see. In the distance, there were human voices and moans, and I saw the firelight and black shadows leaping. Of course, he knew that the people inside the stone castle were creating opportunities for them to attack.

"Stay in formation, move forward with all the players on your knees, and don't make any sound. Fuyaozi ordered. He had to get his team to reach the optimal distance before charging and catching the monsters off guard.

"Sect Master, the two of us are willing to lead the battle in front of us and serve the death force. "Yan Yong and Chi Brew stepped forward to ask for their lives, they wanted to save face for stealing chicken.

"Stupid. Fu Yaozi scolded in his heart, how could he not know that these two people had a little bit of thought to make great contributions to cover up their minor crimes? Although they were a little loose, they still had the ability, and they were able to use it easily. If you die in the monster pile, it is equivalent to breaking two fingers of Fuyaozi.

They took the initiative to propose it in front of so many people, and if they rejected it, they would definitely shake the morale of the army, so they had to agree.

"Exactly. ”

"Oops, brother, you hurt me!" Chi Brew said secretly in his heart. It was Yan Yongfei who pulled him to take the initiative to ask for help, saying that he wanted to behave well and impress the sect master. He didn't mean to do this, but he was afraid of being looked down upon by Yan Yong, and he thought that the sect master would not approve it, so he came hard. Who knew that the sect master promised to be neat.

Yan Yong and Chi Brew were both shirtless, with their clothes and sticks tied to their left arms, and walked to the front with their swords. Both of them have darker skin, Yan Yong is a little stronger, and Chi Brew is leaner.

Yan Yong grinned and greeted the warriors in the front row: "Brothers, the two of us will join you to break through the ghost gate and ask the king of Hades to step down from the stage." ”

"Good!" a low cheer rang out from the crowd. These young warriors, both in terms of age and strength, are the juniors of the two real juniors, and when they are called brothers by Yan Yong, they all have the urge to die for their confidants. The example of real people also gave them more confidence.

Chi Brew's face was indifferent, but in fact, he was apprehensive. Guan Yanyong was calm, talking and laughing freely, not pretentious, and laughed at himself: "I am inferior to him after all." ”

The Thousand Formations swooped swiftly and unscrupulously, approaching the edge of the open space where the Stone Castle Group was located. The gate of each stone castle is open on the inside of the plum blossom array, so the monsters are gathered into the formation. Their eyes were looking upwards at this time, and they didn't notice that an enemy was quietly approaching.

Fuyaozi ordered: "Kill from the south, kill from the northwest, take the direction pointed by the central flag, and intersperse around the stone fort as a column, and do not stay in the plum blossom array." ”

When there were still seventy or eighty paces left from the stone castle group, there was nothing left to cover. Fuyaozi gave the order to charge, and then flew over the stone forts, informing the real people to form their respective hundred-man teams into a mandarin duck formation, ready to open the door and counterattack. Then he led a thousand people in mid-air, supervising the overall battle, and guiding the edge.

"Kill!" Yan Yong rushed out of the first step.

"Kill!" the moment the queue moved violently, everyone let out a scream of exhaustion. Whether it's for women, for food, or simply for survival, or for the faint hope of getting out of Yingzhou, they can't help it.

Even the most cowardly people were inspired by the heroic and heroic "kill", the fighting spirit worn out by life began to stir, and the blood poured cold by the night began to burn!
