【Chapter 822】 Drowning puppet
The so-called 犼, there are two sayings in the folk: one is a kind of divine beast, also called Wangtian, Chaotian, often carved on the Huabiao, regarded as uploading the will of heaven, sending down the people's feelings. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
The second is related to zombies, which is called 'the corpse becomes a drought at the beginning, and then changes into a stubborn', which is regarded as the top of the zombie.
In fact, for Ji Cailan, these two statements are inaccurate, and they can barely be regarded as artistic processing of folklore. In fact, it is an extremely rare sea beast that lives in the East China Sea and feeds on the vigorous and majestic sea air, and is a neighbor of the East China Sea Dragon Clan.
The sea qi is the place where the dragon clan is entrenched, and the spiritual energy produced by refining the spiritual water is in a sense the dragon's private property. Therefore, the sea qi likes to offend the interests of the dragon family, and there are often conflicts between the two. In the heyday of the dragon clan, the little sea air that the dragon inhaled was just a drizzle, and the conflict was usually a misfire, with a warning meaning, and it would not really cut the grass to the roots.
The reason is very simple, it has a relationship with Buddhism. Guanyin Bodhisattva's dojo is located in Putuo Mountain, and the mount is a dragon that lives in the sea, relying on the aura of the lotus pond in the purple bamboo forest for a living.
The number of the dragon is not much, and the ancestor is Guanyin's mount, so the dragon clan turns a blind eye, unless it is too much, it generally does not matter.
Once it reaches the shore, it will cause a great drought, and it is also regarded as a drought beast, and after folk association and processing, it has become the ultimate form of drought fish.
The most important basis for Ji Cai's judgment that this is a drought is that those things that emerge from the ground, including birds, beasts, and humanoid monsters, all of which are covered with a wet layer of mucus.
This mucus is the most important feature of the calf, which is called the venom secreted by the skin of the calf. When ordinary birds and beasts touch a little bit, the water in the whole body immediately evaporates, causing decay, and the spiritual consciousness is controlled by the calf, like a walking corpse, attacking all living creatures and seizing water.
Drowning can be said to be the nemesis of water vapor, shrimp soldiers and crabs will be the spirits of water, and drowning is as effective as an insecticide for them.
Even if it is a cultivation like Tang Scarlet Carp and Ji Cailan, they still have to retreat when they encounter drowning.
Among Ji Cailan's many conjectures, this is the worst and most difficult situation. The remnants of the deserted village are definitely not complete, they should be similar to the fat relics, they belong to the failure of the catastrophe, and a certain part of the remnants has gradually awakened after years of underground nourishment.
Although it is not a complete body, it has extracted the water and gas of a province, and its strength cannot be underestimated.
In the dark night, the firelight continued to explode, but Tang Scarlet Carp did not have the slightest joy in his heart, sighed faintly, and said in a low voice: "I hope they don't blame me, and he won't blame me." ”
The so-called them are the shrimp soldiers and crab generals who rush to the forefront, destined to act as cannon fodder and delay time. 'He' is Lu Zheng, who regards these shrimp soldiers and crabs as treasures.
But she had no choice, and if she wanted to preserve the Dragon Palace, she would have to make a huge sacrifice. She is also not afraid of sacrifice, what she is afraid of is that no one will take care of Jixiang, and no one will take care of Lu Zheng's children.
Ji Cailan understood the bitterness in her heart, and said softly: "Soldiers, murder weapons." As the guards of the Dragon Palace, they sacrificed for the Dragon Palace and His Majesty, and they died as they deserved!"
Tang Scarlet Carp shook his head with a wry smile, his eyes were full of loneliness, and said: "I also made the last preparations, but I don't know - alas, whether it has any effect." ”
Ji Cailan didn't ask any further, she believed Tang Scarlet's intelligence and knowledge. During Lu Zheng's absence, she relied on her careful arrangements to achieve as comprehensive early warning and deployment as possible.
She did her best.
"Ordered them to end the shelling and immediately retreat. Tang Scarlet Carp Guo sighed and said: "The drowning is very powerful, and the body is rotten." If you don't stay away, you will become a puppet, and the scene will be even more difficult to clean up. ”
The carpet shelling did play a role, at least the puppets that had just come out of the soil were affected in a large area. But now under the deserted village, the vibrations are getting louder and louder, and they are beginning to drown out the sound of cannons, indicating that there will be more powerful puppets appearing.
Shrimp soldiers and crabs will go out and will inevitably be affected. If the troops do not retreat in time, once the drowning puppets break through the blockade and rush into the army to spread, I am afraid that there will be batches of infected people, and the scene will be even more erosive.
"Commander Duan, stop the shelling and retreat. ”
In the commanding envoy, Duan Shoujiang stared at the shelling picture with a solemn expression, the sky-high flames covered everything, and everywhere he saw was gunsmoke, and he couldn't see anything clearly. When he heard Xu Zhigao's words, he looked over with a somewhat stunned expression, Xu Zhigao held the phone in his hand, shook his head with a wry smile and said: "The situation is worse than we imagined, the effect of the shelling is minimal, please order a retreat." ”
The command room was in an uproar, and most of the people present were high-ranking officers, who were very aware of the power of artillery and missiles, and such a large-scale and long-term bombardment was extremely rare, at least in modern warfare. According to a rough estimate, the explosion yield so far is enough to blow a valley within a radius of dozens of miles into a deep crater.
It's incredible.
Duan Shoujiang was very calm, frowned slightly, did not raise any questions, and decisively ordered: "Order all units to stop the attack, rearm on the spot, and immediately retreat according to the established route!"
"Chief......" A staff officer wanted to speak but stopped.
Duan Shoujiang waved his hand and said calmly: "Don't say it, what we are facing is not a conventional enemy, it can be clearly said that we know nothing." Don't doubt the accuracy of the message, and immediately pull out the camp. ”
"Yes, Chief!"
There was a noisy voice of preparation among the commanders, Duan Shoujiang and Xu Zhigao glanced at each other, and they both saw the unwillingness and worry in each other's eyes.
The shelling gradually stopped, and at the shrimp soldier garrison outside the valley, Liu Ming raised his right hand and shouted: "Pass my general's order, and the whole army will be deployed!"
The three hundred gold chelates were mighty, like a long dragon, and entered the valley in the smoke of gunpowder. Captain Liu Mang led the team as the vanguard, and was about to enter the hinterland through the valley mouth full of holes, when suddenly there was a cracking sound on the ground in front of him, and dozens of small mountain bags were puffed up, and the top of the mountain bags was splashed with yellow-green slime.
At the same time, in the midst of the earthquake, there was a hoarse roar, and in an instant, the soil bag cracked, and dozens of black shadows came out, turning into black light and coming towards him, even faster than lightning.
Knock knock knock......
Before the sound arrives, the shadow arrives first. Liu Mang's eyes were quickly shrouded in black shadows, in front of a monster like a cow, with yellow-green skin all over his body, wrinkled like a dried corpse, on the head of a bull as big as a giant hammer, most of his face was white and boneless, a pair of horns like knives, eyes like emeralds, galloping on four hooves, wrapped in the wind, heavy like a tank.
"Be careful!"
Liu Mang shouted, rose from the ground, and the two red giant claws glowed with blue light, forming two blue light blades, which rolled flexibly in the air and slashed down heavily.
With a pop, the bull's head snapped and its bones rolled to the ground. Rao is like this, the huge body still broke into the battle formation with momentum, and the two shrimp soldiers couldn't dodge, and they were instantly knocked upside down and flew out, spurting blood from their mouths, drawing an arc in the air.
Fortunately, Liu Mang reacted in time, and the rest of his subordinates immediately laid out a shield array according to the formation, and condensed the water spirit shield one after another, neatly arranging them to form a shield wall.
Liu Laogen, the lieutenant of the Chinese Military Academy, arrived in time and ordered his subordinates to form two wings of the sanitation pioneer, and also formed a road wall shield.
With a boom, a pig and a sheep and two yellow-green drowning puppets collided with the shield array, and with a powerful momentum, half of the body directly shattered, and the shield became crumbling.
A shrimp soldier was accidentally drowned all over his face by the splashing plow, and immediately hissed in pain, and the carapace around his body quickly collapsed at a speed visible to the naked eye, replaced by a layer of yellow-green mucus, and the eye handle, jaw and feet, head and face quickly rotted, exuding a pungent fishy smell, and the appearance was very terrifying.
Governor Zhu Zhidi had instructed anyone who was contaminated with drowning to give him a good time immediately to prevent him from being used. Liu Laogen immediately made a decision, endured the grief in his heart, cut off its head with a knife, and hissed: "Brothers, be careful of this venom!
The black shadows drilled out of the dirt bag are all kinds of animals, pigs, cows, sheep, dogs, wolverines and hedgehogs, all of which are unusually large in size, and their strength is stronger than wave after wave.
The impermeable shield arrays were broken through one after another, and in less than a cup of tea, the casualties of the vanguard troops of the Golden Chelate Guard reached forty percent, of which twenty percent were drowned and killed by their companions.
This is an extremely tragic battle, and the shrimp soldiers must not only face the onslaught of the spoiled puppets, but also beware of the venom sprayed everywhere, and they must be ready to kill the robe like a brother at all times.
At the commanding heights of the valley, the soldiers of the Shenji Battalion were in full swing, the buzz roared through the sky, and the blue water bombs poured down into the valley like a torrential rain.
In another valley mouth, the Iron Fist Guard's situation is the same as that of the Golden Guard, if not worse, the mantis shrimp, which is good at melee attacks, carries with it every blow a huge risk of being infected by the drowning.
The rampant Taibao, which Zhu Zhidi personally commanded, used their ability to move quickly, always pay attention to the battle situation, and prepare to plunder the formation.
And that's just the beginning.
Stronger enemies are still struggling and roaring underground, ready to jump out at any moment.
