Text 224.The Battle of Yunnan (21)
Quiet, gloomy, the long, narrow and bumpy path seemed so terrifying and bleak.
Suddenly, the horse under the crotch stopped, and then, the horse lowered its head, kept whispering and snorting, sniffed repeatedly on the ground, after smelling a few times, the war horse raised its head violently, looked ahead, it suddenly looked very frightened, quickly took a few steps back, and then tried to turn around and run back, no matter how Yao Guangqi tightened the reins, how to whip the horse, the war horse refused to take half a step forward, and kept moving backwards.
Yao Guangqi knew that the horse felt danger, so he let go of the reins and jumped off the horse with a flick of his legs. But as soon as his ass left the horse's back, the horse turned in a hurry and turned one hundred and eighty degrees, shook off its hooves, and ran away with all its might.
Yao Guangqi watched the war horse run away, turned back and walked forward nervously, I don't know why, he also felt that a danger was approaching him, an inexplicable pressure was suppressed in his heart, making his nerves tense unconsciously, and he couldn't help but clench Mo Yun with his left hand.
Suddenly, there was a strange sound in the forest in front of the left, and the grass shook for a while, Yao Guangqi, who had been on the mountain for a year, knew that there must be something behind it, but he was not in a hurry to make a move, he saw a tree in front of him, jumped up, stood on a very thick branch, tore off a few thin branches, and threw it out towards the abnormal grass.
The branches shot through, but there was no movement in the grass, maybe it was a snake. Just as he turned his head to look ahead, there was a sudden movement in the grass.
A black shadow jumped out, jumped to the branch where Yao Guangqi was standing, jumped upward, pulled up two people vertically, two thick arms hugged the trunk, and climbed to the branch where Yao Guangqi was standing in three or two strokes, the black shadow was extremely flexible, one and a half turns in the air, grabbed the branch under Yao Guangqi's feet with both hands, and then turned over, and the whole body stood on the branch.
Yao Guangqi, who had not moved, finally saw this black shadow clearly, if he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, he would never believe the scene in front of him.
This is a half-ape man who is not like a man and an ape is not like an ape, his appearance is both human and ape-like, especially the high and bulging mouth, and the deep sunken eye sockets, which makes him look a lot like an ape, but the bridge of his nose is as high as a man, and his face has very little hair, and his forehead is not so flat, which makes him look somewhat human-like. Looking at this face, it can only be said that this is a half-ape.
But it is not accurate to say that he is a half-ape, because his body is stronger than that of an ape, although his limbs cannot be seen clearly due to the obscuration of clothing, just looking at his two arms, they are twice as thick as Yao Guangqi's thighs, and those two legs must also be very thick. and the thick waist and thick chest, which reminded Yao Guangqi of a bear.
What's even stranger is that this monster is not only wearing clothes, but also wearing armor, although it is already very tattered, but Yao Guangqi can still be sure that this is a suit of armor, yes, a suit of cotton armor.
Cotton armor, such a strong and agile body, while all this in front of him shocked Yao Guangqi, it also reminded him of another thing, did the elite soldiers who defeated Guo Ying have anything to do with this monster?
But he didn't have time to think at this point, and the monster stared at him for a moment, then let out a low roar and lunged at him. The monster's legs were full of strength, and this leap was enough to step out of ordinary people
Five steps are so far, and the speed is extremely fast, Yao Guangqi's heart can't help but tighten.
He spun around and dodged the monster's lunge, falling to the ground. The monster reacted quickly, turned around and jumped down, seven or eight people tall branches, jumped down without blinking, those two legs were really strong, and when it landed, it made a muffled bang, and there was no trace of discomfort, and it jumped up again with a bow, and Yao Guangqi dodged again.
The monster pounced, as soon as it landed, arched his legs again, pounced again, Yao Guangqi dodged again, from these few dodges, Yao Guangqi found that the monster was strong and fast, especially the instantaneous explosive power was very strong, and he could take nearly ten steps away with all his strength, whether it was speed or strength, it was far beyond humans, if he went to the battlefield and picked up a weapon, he must be an elite soldier with one as ten, no wonder four scouts died three before barely escaping back one.
Several times in a row, the monster also learned to be smart, this time he didn't move, stood in place and carefully observed Yao Guangqi, and then moved forward little by little, shortening the distance with Yao Guangqi, after moving three steps, he suddenly pounced again, Yao Guangqi did not dodge left and right this time, but jumped upwards and stood on a branch above his head.
Unexpectedly, the monster used too much force, and couldn't stop at all, and directly hit a small tree behind Yao Guangqi, saying that it was a small tree, but it was actually already growing tall, and the trunk was thicker than an adult's thigh, but such a thick small tree was actually broken by the monster.
Yao Guangqi took a cool breath, he planned to capture this monster alive and go back to study it, he pulled out the ink cloud, glanced at the monster, and flew down, but at the moment when he was about to land, Yao Guangqi suddenly found that the tattered cotton armor on the monster's back revealed patches of blood, could it be that this monster was injured?
It's amazing, he still has such strength after being injured, what a strong body this is, if he is not injured, then what a terrifying combat power he should have. Yao Guangqi suddenly changed his mind, did not pick the monster's hamstrings, but swept at the monster's waist, and the cotton armor was swept away and fell to the ground, so he could see it clearly.
Sure enough, the monster was wounded on its back, and a dense and thick layer of gray hair stained a large patch red, some of which had dried up and scabbed with blood, and some of which still had beads of blood on the tips.
When the monster saw that his clothes were torn, he thought that the person opposite was teasing him, and immediately slammed his chest twice in anger and pounced on him again. At the same time as Yao Guangqi dodged, Mo Yun slashed on its arm again, and then landed ten steps away, observing the monster's behavior again.
The monster's arm was wounded, but instead of showing a painful expression, he touched the wound with his other hand, dipped it in blood with his fingertips, put it in his mouth and wrapped it, and then lifted the injured arm up and licked it with his tongue. Suddenly, the monster's expression changed, and it became extremely angry, and I don't know if it was because of the stimulation of injury, or the smell of blood stimulated its beastliness, and the monster rushed up even more frantically.
Yao Guangqi jumped vertically, dodging the monster at the same time, Mo Yun picked a sword on the monster's left shoulder, this sword was more powerful than just now, directly broke the monster's left big neck tendon, the monster's left arm immediately drooped down, and the body also lost its balance, and fell directly to the ground.
But
Even if he fell to the ground, the monster still screamed, refused to stop, kept supporting it with his right arm, trying to stand up forcibly, Yao Guangqi looked at it more and more shocked, didn't it hurt to be injured? What kind of body is this! Injured like this, this monster was born to fight.
A wounded monster still has such combat power, if the Yuan soldiers really have hundreds of such monsters, wouldn't it be an invincible army?
He stared at this monster without blinking, and slowly stepped forward, he suddenly felt a little sorry for it, it didn't know pain, then there would be no pain, I'm afraid there would be no joy and sorrow, this is a beast that has no emotion and only knows how to fight, maybe it was born to fight.
He raised the ink cloud and swung it down resolutely at the monster's neck. The moment he swung his sword, he clearly saw that the monster's eyes were staring at him, there was no pleading, no despair, not even pain in his eyes, Yao Guangqi even felt that what was revealed in his eyes was hope, relief, and gratitude.
Just when Yao Guangqi lifted Mo Yun and the sword in his hand was not collected, he suddenly heard a sharp howl behind him, Yao Guangqi was startled, and quickly jumped to the side, only to see that dozens of steps behind him, another monster appeared, and it was exactly the same as the monster on the ground, and this monster's chest was even more bulging, and it looked like a mother.
Yao Guangqi realized that the injured monster just now was probably a male and female pair with the one in front of him, and this one was obviously to take care of the injured one, and he had just gone to find food, Yao Guangqi was a little lucky, thanks to the injured one alone, if two appeared at the same time, it would be really difficult to deal with.
The mother was originally holding a bunch of fruits in her hands, and when she saw that the monster on the ground was motionless, and her neck was constantly bleeding, she rushed to the dead monster like crazy, shaking the body of the dead monster desperately, and when she was sure that she was really dead, she actually lay on the body of the dead monster and cried bitterly, crying and patting the body of the dead monster, that grief, so real, the pain of life and death parting, more real than people.
It turns out that they also have emotions, life and death, joys and sorrows, and there are such rich emotions, their emotions are more sincere and pure than human beings.
Yao Guangqi didn't know why, and suddenly sighed infinitely, but the mother's monster suddenly stood up, roared loudly at Yao Guangqi, and then rushed up.
No matter how sincere it is, it is only a beast, not a human after all, Yao Guangqi raised his sword......
Back at the camp, Yao Guangqi told Zhang Yuyi what he had seen and heard, and Zhang Yu was taken aback: "Such a monster, I have heard of it for the first time, if according to your inference, the hundreds of elite soldiers of the enemy army that Guo Ying encountered are all such monsters, then don't say that our thousands of people are given in vain, even if it is tens of thousands of reinforcements behind, it will be difficult to win." ”
Yao Guangqi nodded, he didn't think about how to fight, he was thinking about the origin of the things: "What are these things?" Where did it come from? ”
Zhang Yu didn't think about it so much: "It's useless to think about that now, now we have to figure out how to win these things, no matter what they are, don't we all have to fight?" ”
Yao Guangqi felt reasonable: "What are you going to do?" ”
