Chapter 693: Into the Danger
"It's out now." The fourth princess can block that palm for Fang Chen without hesitation, and Fang Chen will naturally go to the soup without hesitation.
Fang Chen handpicked fifty sturdy soldiers from the General's Mansion to go with him, while Yang Hongbin and Miao Renchun stayed in the General's Mansion to take care of the women. Now, Fang Chen is no longer the person who feeds the whole family without hunger, and now his family has a big business, and there are three beautiful women like flowers and jade. Not to mention that the surface of the Tianlong Empire is calm and calm, and the dark tide is surging underneath, just that Yu Yi doesn't know when he will make a comeback. Therefore, he entrusted Yang Hongbin and Miao Renchun with the heavy trust, and ordered them to strengthen their vigilance and ask Liu Heng for help if necessary.
That night, Fang Chen, Yang Hongbin, and Miao Renchun had a long talk all night, in addition to explaining some matters. Fang Chen and Yang Hongbin also consulted the formations in the book of the Art of War, and let those soldiers in the mansion practice the formations in the book of the Art of War, which will help improve the defense capability of the General's Mansion.
The next day, Fang Chen and his party marched towards the Valley of Ten Thousand Beasts.
The Valley of Ten Thousand Beasts, as the name suggests, is the territory of all beasts. People don't want to get a piece of the land, and most of the people who want to enter the treasure hunt die here. Therefore, the Valley of Ten Thousand Beasts has also become a forbidden place for people.
Walking through a dense forest, it suddenly opens up in front of you, this is the entrance to the legendary Valley of Ten Thousand Beasts.
This is a vast land, with a gentle breeze, bright flowers, and green grass, and a piece of life. If it hadn't been for the fact that this was hell, people would have thought of it as a place to stroll.
"No, it's not a rumor." One of the soldiers walking in the back row muttered to one of the soldiers next to him.
"It won't come out of nowhere, it's better to be careful." A soldier next to him was more cautious and warned his companion.
At the moment when the two were discussing, the face of the soldier who had just spoken suddenly changed greatly.
"Did you hear anything?"
"It was like the sound of shredded footsteps. But there's no one behind? Speaking of this, his heart was also a little empty, and he couldn't help but look back vigilantly, but there was nothing. But when he kept walking. The rustling sound grew stronger and stronger, and it followed.
"What the hell......" Before he could speak, he suddenly had a spasm and fell to the ground.
"What's wrong?" The companion next to him exclaimed.
At this shout, the team stopped. Fang Chen turned his head and walked over: "What happened?" ”
The man was shocked, "We both heard the faint sound of footsteps, but when we looked back, the footsteps were gone. And then he was like that. ”
Fang Chen found that this person's face was dark, and there was a small hole in front of his head, which seemed to be caused by some sharp weapon, but no sharp weapon was found on the small hole in his head.
"I didn't see any monsters at all, could it be a ghost?" The man's voice was trembling, people are always more afraid of invisible things than tangible things, no matter how fierce the monster is, it is still a monster after all, but once it becomes an invisible ghost, it is easier to make people's hearts beat.
Fang Chen glared at this confused soldier: "He has a hole in his head, obviously he was attacked by something, and he has to talk nonsense about military law." ”
Although the man closed his mouth, there was still a look of ghost in his eyes.
In fact, what happened, Fang Chen himself couldn't say. If it is said that it is injured by a hidden weapon, at least there will be a hidden weapon on the wound.
When something like this happened, Fang Chen immediately changed his formation and looked at each other.
But after walking a few steps, several more people let out a frightened cry.
Something happened again. Fang Chen saw that it was still the same miserable situation.
How so? Fang Chen stared at the wound, and suddenly, a small blood-black dot shot out from the door of his head and hit Fang Chen directly.
The True Qi in Fang Chen's body burst out reflexively, and the blood-black dot let out a terrible scream. Then he fell to the ground, struggled twice, and stiffened.
It's a small bug that's slightly larger than an ant. The whole body is dark, because it is soaked in the blood, and the whole body has become blood black.
"Poor little ghost?" Someone screamed.
"You recognize this thing."
"I just heard the old man talk about it, but I didn't expect to encounter this kind of bug." The man spoke, as if his heart was palpitating. "The reason why this kind of bug is called a little ghost is because it is difficult to escape when you meet his **. This insect is lightning fast, and people are usually caught off guard when attacked by him, and its body is small and hides in the soil, making it difficult to detect in flowers and plants. He likes to attack people's brains the most, because once he successfully enters the brain, he quickly eats away at people's brain marrows, causing people to die instantly. ”
When everyone heard this, they couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat: "Then what should we do?" ”
The man breathed a sigh of relief: "Don't panic, although this insect is terrifying, but since he is dead, there is no need to worry." ”
"Then if his kind attack him in groups, we will not be more dangerous."
The man's expression steadied: "This kind of insect does not like to live in groups, they generally live alone, and they have a characteristic, they work independently, and they never interfere with each other. In other words, we ran into this "little imp" here, and we should not run into his companion again within a radius of dozens of miles. ”
"How so?"
"It has something to do with the poor habits of the little ghost. The imp is extremely fast and cannot be prevented. If it appears in large quantities, it will inevitably attract attention and will not achieve that effect. In addition, the imps also like to kill each other, often fight to the end only the strong imps can survive, although this bug is small, but it is a huge head in the imps, so it should be the final winner. The number of imps themselves is small, so that there are almost no companions in this radius of tens of miles. ”
After only a few steps, two people had already died, and it was really frightening every step here.
"What's your name?" Fang Chen felt that this person was not simple, and he could be described as well-informed.
"Report to the general, the little one's name is Chen Sibi."
Fang Chen nodded: "You have quite a bit of research on these strange animals. ”
"When I was a kid, I liked to listen to adults talk about strange things, so I knew a little bit about new things."
Fang Chen nodded, this time bringing a living guide.
"Be careful, everybody." Fang Chen gave an order and led everyone forward.
It's just that no one notices that behind them, there is always a grim look staring at them.
The night was quiet and profound, and Fang Chen made a big fire. The crowd sat on the ground around the fire. Fire not only brings light, but also dispels beasts. At the same time, five people were arranged to take the fire as the center point to strengthen the vigilance.
Along the way, Fang Chen was also tired. Sit cross-legged and close your eyes. The other soldiers who followed were already exhausted from this highly stressful situation, and as soon as they lay down, they fell asleep.
Suddenly, Fang Chen opened his eyes suddenly. Now his spiritual power has reached a certain level, although the whole person is resting, but his spiritual power can still keenly perceive everything around him. It's like a vigilant sentinel. Just now he had already smelled a very dangerous breath, approaching, and suddenly opened his eyes.
