The Battle of the Kingdoms Chapter 35 The Secret of the Barbarians (Ask for Red Tickets, Ask for Collection)
"Be careful of the snow under your feet, walk together, and don't step on anything other than footprints. There are many snow-covered places here, and there is actually a crater underneath, which is criss-crossed, and if you accidentally fall down and don't fall to your death on the spot, you will get lost in a labyrinth-like cave. Walking in the middle of the team, he kindly reminded Wu Yong that he exhaled a large amount of white qi from his mouth, obviously traveling in such a harsh ice and snow also consumed a lot of his physical strength.
Wu Yong looked at the vast snow in front of him, nodded, and carefully followed the footsteps that were gradually leaving.
There are seven members of this team, and the purpose is to make a detour from the snowy fields to the hinterland of the barbarians to see what is happening to the barbarians. The incident of the last barbarian attack shocked Pei Ju a lot, what happened in the barbarian tribe that made these barbarians suddenly become so bloody and brutal, and when they were angry, their bodies would swell and become bloodthirsty giants who ate human flesh raw. Pei Ju has been stationed in the northern country of Yan for many years, and has also fought with the barbarians for many years, and he knows very well the living habits of these barbarian predators, like this mutation has exceeded his understanding of the barbarians, and there must have been major changes in the land where the barbarians live, and his intuition told him that he must find out immediately, and a day late may bring unpredictable disasters to the Yan country.
Wu Yong strongly asked to join this reconnaissance team, and Pei Ju unexpectedly agreed to Wu Yong's request, maybe the Wu brothers feel that they can be trusted by others many times.
The reconnaissance team set out from Beiguan, avoiding areas frequented by barbarians, and tracing their way through the foothills of snow-capped, inaccessible mountains. It was the third day of their journey, and the quiet and beautiful snowy fields hid too many dangerous traps that greatly restricted their speed.
At this time they entered a more dangerous area, less than a foot above their heads was an extended snow cliff, enveloping the whole group, the loose snow would fall off and fall as long as there was the slightest vibration, everyone walked cautiously, not daring to make a sound, for fear of shaking the snowdrift overhead, these tons of snow pressed on the body, the possibility of survival was extremely small.
After crawling through this death zone, everyone stopped in place to breathe, and felt sweat dripping from their backs in the bitter cold.
Suddenly, there was a rumbling sound from the top of the mountain, and gradually Li's face changed greatly, and he shouted, "Everyone quickly leave the area near the snowy mountain." ”
Soon the entire snowfield shook.
"It's an avalanche!" He watched the snow rushing down from the top of the mountain, leading everyone to escape to safety.
Wu Yong saw the power of an avalanche for the first time, and under the power of this devastating nature, his personal strength was really insignificant, and he disappeared in the blink of an eye.
Suddenly, he noticed a small black dot in the rolling snow waves, flickering in the snow waves, like a seabird moving through the wind and waves, swift and light. The avalanche came very fast, and in a blink of an eye it had reached the foot of the mountain, the black dot was really a person, and gradually separated from them and found this person, all of them were dumbfounded, there were still people who survived the avalanche, and from his posture, it didn't look like he was running for his life at all, but he was enjoying the feeling of ten thousand horses galloping, countless snow rushed all the way and smashed on the ground, stirring up thousands of layers of snow waves, and after the sound of the snow dissipated, the person stood on top of the snow, looking up at the sky, his robe fluttered in the wind, and his spirit was flying.
The snow that continued to roll behind him was naturally parted to both sides by invisible hands.
The man looked up to the sky and laughed, shook his arms, and flew away like a swallow against the snow, stirring up countless snowflakes along the way.
Gradually Li sighed: "This guy can't be the legendary Heavenly Rank powerhouse, right?" I have never seen such a strong person in my life. ”
Wu Yong remembered that when he was a child, his father Wu Zhi took his three brothers to play on the river, and suddenly a father's friend came, he stepped on the river, rode the waves, and only his free and easy back on the wide river, and he didn't know that the person was shocking at the time, and now compared with the person in front of him, it seems that he is not equal.
Seven people sighed and continued to walk, on the vast snowfield for a few days, along the way the strange scenery of the northern icebergs and snowfields really opened Wu Yong's eyes, several small dangers were easily resolved, everyone experienced hardships after the feelings deepened, no one regarded Wu Yong as an outsider, and soon the reconnaissance team came to the center of the barbarian life: Tianhuo.
Wu Yong was very curious, according to the gradual departure, most of the time here is spent in the cold, and it has nothing to do with warmth, is it just to entrust the good wishes of the barbarians who yearn for warmth and light?
In the harsh winter, the grass was covered with thick snow, and the barbarian activity area was greatly reduced, and there was no trace of the barbarian life after the Tianhuo traveled for half a day. It is recommended to go deeper twenty miles, and this twenty miles can reach the winter gathering point of the barbarians.
But so close to the barbarians, it is almost impossible to escape in the flat grasslands if they are discovered. Gradually, he said: "Even if only one person escapes, you must bring the information back, so that Yan Guo can take precautions as soon as possible." ”
The last twenty miles of stealth was unusually difficult and slow, but the reconnaissance team finally found traces of the barbarian life, and there was a faint fire not far ahead, like a huge fire burning.
Could it be that the barbarians are performing some rituals?
As the scout team approached, they saw a large number of barbarians kneeling respectfully in front of the campfire, and they reverently bowed their heads to the ground, keeping their kneeling postures unchanged.
On the other side of the fire was a monster that had never been seen before, with its huge body spread out, with webbed things between its limbs and its head, and stood in front of the barbarians like a drum, and in front of it was a row of prostrated barbarians with their heads pressed against the ground, turning their bodies and turning their backs to it.
Countless tentacles stretched out from under the monster and inserted from behind the barbarians, and the barbarians who were inserted immediately swelled all over, very similar to the situation after the transformation of the barbarians seen that day, some barbarians couldn't bear the sudden change in their bodies, and fell to the ground after convulsions all over their bodies, and some barbarians forcibly suppressed the pain of their bodies, and then with a bang, their bodies exploded into a cloud of blood mist due to excessive expansion.
For these eliminated barbarians, the monster did not care about the use of the tentacles still connected to the barbarians' bodies to throw the corpses aside, the corpse pile was full of vultures that came to eat carrion, these fierce birds after eating carrion have become several times larger than before, more fierce and ferocious, while eating carrion while staring at the barbarians in the field, do not hide the desire for these living people.
