Chapter 7: Monsters
Guo Tongxin and his entourage went all the way south, farther and farther. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
By the thirteenth day, there was no thick snow on the ground, but a light snow that melted when it landed. Feeling the warmer and warmer weather, except for Guo Xiaoxin, everyone else took off their heavy cloaks.
Looking at the warm sun hanging in the sky every day, Qu Suyi's mood seems to be much happier.
On this day, the remnant sun is like blood, and the breeze is blowing.
The handsome Gao Guard glanced at the sky that had gradually darkened, suddenly grabbed the reins in front, dismounted and approached the carriage and said loudly: "Second lady, eldest lady, today we are afraid that we will be around here for one night." ”
"Is it here?" Qu Suyi lifted the curtain of the carriage, probed out of the carriage, looked at the uninhabited wasteland around her, and felt a little nervous, "I haven't met an inn after walking so far today, could it be that we went the wrong way?" ”
Gao Escort said: "Second lady, we are not on the wrong path. After a pause, he continued: "There is a great distance between the towns on this stretch of the road, and it is necessary for the fast horses of the marching army to gallop before it can reach the next inn before dark." If we go on now, we will enter a forest, and it will be dangerous to walk in the forest at night, and from time to time there will be wild beasts, and I am afraid of ......."
"Yes, yes." Qu Suyi nodded frequently, "If there are wild beasts, naturally you can't walk at night." ”
So, the high guard took everyone to a flat place with a wide view, ordered someone to collect some dry firewood and come back, and started to boil water on a fire. After a pot of water boiled, the soldiers drank hot water around the fire and nibbled on dry food, and the pothos side brought a bowl to Qu Suyi and Guo Xiaoxin.
Guo Xiaoxin held the dry food in his hand, only to feel that his throat and eyes were astringent. This dry food had been bought in a town four or five days ago, and had been sitting in the air for a few days, and now it was too hard to swallow.
She looked at the firewood that had not yet been extinguished, her eyes flashed, and she bent down and got out of the carriage. First, I folded a few twigs on the side of the road, and then wiped the twigs clean with a hand towel, and then skewered the twigs into the cake according to the modern method of baking cakes, and then sat next to the fire and baked the cake little by little.
When the soldiers saw that she could eat a bite of hot bread in this way, they all followed suit.
"The eldest lady is so smart at such a young age." The high guard looked around, and after seeing that there was no movement around, he also gathered around the fire to bake cakes with everyone.
Guo Tongxin casually handed him the cake he had baked, and said with a smile: "The high guards have worked hard all the way, this is for you." ”
The high guard immediately said: "I'll bake it myself, and the eldest lady will use it for her own use." ”
Guo Xiaoxin saw that he didn't answer, and he didn't let him go again, so he wanted to turn around and send the scones to his mother. But just as she turned around, by the faint light of the fire, she suddenly glanced at two faint green lights in front of her.
She frowned, thinking she was dazzled.
It's not the 21st century, and there's still green neon. Just when she wondered if she was too tired all the way and had hallucinated, she seemed to see the faint green light again, which seemed to be moving, and it was getting closer and closer to herself.
Guo Tong panicked in his heart, and said in a trembling voice: "Gao Guard, there seems to be movement over there, there." ”
She pointed with both hands, and the high guards and others all surrounded her. When everyone saw it, their palms were sweating.
I saw a huge thing, stepping on the fallen leaves and approaching this side little by little. By the light of the fire, the huge thing was as tall as a horse, but much stronger than a horse. The whole body is hairless, and the skin is arranged in a neat and orderly manner like fish scales, and it seems to emit a faint light under the reflection of the moonlight. Plus green eyeballs the size of a child's fist, and two horns on top of the head.
What the hell is this, Guo Xiaoxin gasped.
"Protect Madame and Miss." The high guard shouted, drew the long sword at his waist, and rushed to the front.
The other ten soldiers also picked up the guys, some gathered in front of the carriage, some followed behind the high guards, and all made a posture of responding to the enemy at any time.
"Come back to the carriage." Qu Suyi hurriedly beckoned in the carriage, and the green pothos also jumped down to pull Guo Xiaoxin, "Miss, hurry, quickly hide with the slave." ”
"You go back to the carriage and accompany my mother." Guo Tongxin pushed the pothos and thought, how can this be dodged.
At this time, the monster's steps became faster and faster, and every step was actually smashed on the ground, making people feel that the earth was shaking.
The high guard who rushed to the front suddenly raised a breath of true qi, and Yuan Li suddenly spread all over his body, ready to fight.
Yuan Li, Xiao Guo Xiaoxin has seen it. Because Guo Yuanbai is a second-grade Xuan, when the Yuan Force is emitted, there is black smoke in the orange aperture, and it looks very beautiful from a distance.
In fact, there is such a thing as Yuan Force, which is also known as internal force. In this era, the level of Yuan Force determines what kind of weapon you use, and Yuan Force plus weapons determines your skill and ability. Therefore, all people who practice martial arts start from practicing Yuan Li.
At this time, the true qi in Gao Guard's chest was raised, and a red circle of light was immediately filled with white, which did not disperse around him for a long time. Those who knew the level of Yuan Li knew at a glance that he had cultivated to the first grade of the Yuan level. This is already very rare for an ordinary person.
And the soldiers behind also touched Yuan Li one after another, some of the white circles were full of red, and some of the white circles were full of orange. This shows that most of them are junior third-grade or fourth-grade skills, and there are two white circles that are covered with white, which means that their cultivation is just a primary grade. If you fight, it's just a little bit more powerful than ordinary people's fist and foot skills.
The giant beast seemed very excited when it saw this. Then from the steady step just now, it suddenly turned into a wild run, a big mouth opened wide, and let out a hiss, which made people shudder when they heard it.
"Up!" The high guard gave an order, and the eleven people drew their swords and stabbed them together.
As a result, before he got close to the body of the giant beast, he saw the giant beast's head shake, and then overturned the three soldiers on the ground.
Gao Guard's body flashed, and he rushed behind the monster, and with a mention of Yuan Li, he wanted to shake the monster. As a result, the beast not only did not move, but also turned around and hissed at the high guard twice, and then a huge body went straight towards him and hissed.
"High Guard, be careful!" Guo Tong was shocked into a cold sweat.
The high guard flipped in the air, directly from the back of the giant beast that came from the rampage, and then turned around and slashed a sword, as a result, the sword was like stabbing into a stone wall, not only did not the imaginary flesh and blood blur, but the sword body trembled twice, and bounced back. It turned out that the scaly skin was like armor that protected its flesh intact.
Gao Wei Xu had never seen such a thing, and couldn't help but be surprised. After being stunned for a few seconds, he immediately drew his sword and recovered, waiting for a little adjustment. Who would have thought that this monster would be so smart, and with a twist of its body, a horn directly picked into the clothes of the high guard.
Seeing that while the high guard was wielding his long sword, his feet were gradually volleying into the air, Guo Xiaoxin shouted in his heart, and the rest of the soldiers also retreated.
What kind of monster is this, even the high-level guards of the first grade of the Yuan level can't resist him.
Everyone was in a cold sweat.
