Chapter 141: Nightmarish Sight
The horse carrying He Ming stepped out of the sky full of smoke and dust on the land of the alliance, and the loess behind him rolled, and he galloped across the border of the Viper Valley in one breath, so that the border guards noticed him and thought that something was wrong.
But before he could stop him, the mad horse rushed into the Viper Valley, only to find that there was no commotion, much to the surprise of the guards.
But as the temperature and humidity in the air rose together, and the loess gradually turned into blue sky and green grass, He Ming found that he had really walked into the Valley of the Viper.
He Ming didn't know what he would say when he returned to the village, but he felt more and more excited, feeling that his heart was about to jump out of his throat, and he didn't want to think about it anymore, he just blindly rode the horse and galloped, even if the horse was actually tired, he didn't think about it.
It's just that when he crossed a few complicated areas, he didn't even see a common snake, and he didn't think much about it, because in Qingshui on Cangyue Island, they had already told them that the natural danger that blocked the Beech Province and the Poisonous Snake Valley had been expelled, perhaps referring to the exorcism of these poisonous snakes.
Finally, after stabbing the horse again, the horse, which was sweating profusely and could no longer run, carried He Ming close to the Viper Mountain Village.
The mountain village in his impression was getting closer and closer to him, and when he really entered his eyes, He Ming felt that his heartbeat had stopped, his eyes were round, and his whole body trembled, hoping that he was wrong.
However, he was not mistaken, the scene in front of him was indeed the remains of the entire burned mountain village, all the houses, as well as the fields around the village, were burned, and the dead villagers were lying everywhere!
There were still bursts of heat evaporating from his body, and he could only pant and jump down immediately, He Ming rushed into the village like crazy with his sword, he hoped again and again that he was just wrong, or that he had taken the wrong path, this place was not Viper Mountain Village, but other places.
However, after all, he is no longer a hot-blooded boy who has just come to Beach, after He Ming, who has been living and dying several times, after determining his own path and not going wrong, even though anger, sadness, and self-blame tear his heart like a demon, he still calmed down.
Judging from the traces of the burning, the atrocity had occurred within a month, and with little hope, he ran down the valley path to Li Yueqin's hut halfway up the mountainside.
The hut was safe and sound, which made He Ming's heart jump suddenly, and he hurriedly ran over, but when he saw that the door was open, the herbs in the field had obviously not been taken care of for a long time, and the medicinal herbs drying next to the house had completely dried up.
She must have found out that the village had been attacked, so she ran out of it to support the villagers below, but she didn't have time to close the door.
He Ming clenched his sword and carefully walked into the house, and found that it was covered with dust, and the quilt on the bed was still folded well, and all kinds of furnishings showed that the owner of the place had suddenly run out and had not come back since.
And what does it mean that the atrocities of the village were set on fire did not affect this hut? With madness and rage, He Ming couldn't find an outlet to vent, so he could only forcibly sober himself up, no matter what, first carefully check the remaining traces to see if he could find any clues.
With his current alertness, he could carefully distinguish from the ashes and dirt the footprints on the ground, as well as the marks of the battle, when they probably appeared.
In addition to the chaotic footprints of humans who have been here many times, there are some obvious hoof prints that have only appeared here for one time period!
And the hoof prints, including the ruins of the remnants, as well as the traces of dragging on the ground, all show that there was a desperate fight around them, and there are only a few people left in the village who can resist except Li Yueqin who have the force. It is clear that the owners of these unknown hoof prints were responsible for this atrocity.
He Ming carefully observed that these hooves were neither Zuma's hooves nor the hooves of the bull demon, because they were not forked, but complete hooves, and they walked upright on both feet, like the hoof prints of horses or donkeys.
It's an enemy invasion that has never been seen before! And the purpose was direct, the crime was cruel, and there were not too many traces left nearby, and there was not a single corpse with hooves.
The footsteps of these monsters are neat, not messy, and at the same time, it can be seen that there are not too many, about twenty to thirty, what is the purpose of such well-trained monsters attacking here?
Li Yueqin had an accident, why did I choose to run away from her at that time? If I were here, I would be able to resist these dozens of monsters, or at least help with them! Taking 10,000 steps back, it is better to live and die with her than to watch all this powerlessly and regret it.
A heart-wrenching sting pain spread from his heart to his whole body, and he almost lost his mind, and self-blame, remorse, and anger gushed out, but he had nowhere to vent at all, and he wished to die.
Grabbing his heart hard, he burst into tears, trembling all over, his teeth clucked, and suddenly seemed to grasp a life-saving straw: he hadn't found Li Yueqin's body yet, maybe Li Yueqin had just escaped, or had been captured by these monsters.
Holding on to this last glimmer of hope, he carefully flipped the corpses on the ground with his sword, hoping that Li Yueqin was not among them, and he found that these corpses had been dead for about a month, but they were still intact, stiff and not rotten, and their clothes were still highly discernible.
It's all ordinary villagers here, and there really isn't Li Yueqin here! She's been captured, and these monsters are clearly coming for her, why? Just as he was concentrating on his thoughts, a villager behind him suddenly burst out and grabbed him by the neck with one hand.
He Ming had already experienced countless life-and-death battles, and He Ming had already had an instinctive reaction to this kind of surprise attack, only slightly turning to one side to let this grab empty, and when he turned around, he was already thunderbolting, and the whole person flipped over, and a sword slashed the ribs of this person from below.
The sound of the cymbal, and the sound of gold and iron made He Ming unexpectedly remember the feeling of being slashed on the most completely transformed zombie at that time, but the thunderbolt was not the frost at that time after all, and the zombie was still cut into two pieces.
These people have become zombies like the miners in the Beechcraft Mine? Could it be that there is a connection between the attackers and the creatures of the dark world? Judging from the traces, more than a group of humans have come here to investigate during this time, but only when they faced themselves, they were mutated!
Are you coming for me? He Ming felt a palpitation, these people are all affected by me? If it's to deal with yourself, it makes sense to catch Li Yueqin and leave, but even if it's coming at me, you have to have a clue, at least give me a direction to throw yourself into the net!
While he was still thinking about these brainless questions, the corpses in the entire village slowly got up, and together they made a muffled murmur, although it was slight and chaotic, but so many sounds sounded together, and the mixed sound produced made He Ming hear it very clearly.
"Weak human beings rely on the favor of the gods, and they bully all things without knowing how to be grateful, and the faith of the gods is lost. Slave all living beings, feed on the gods, and those who are enslaved will be enslaved, and those who are eaten will eat it! Cows, sheep, pigs, horses, those who are bullied and persecuted, will be the vanguard messengers. ”
He Ming said coldly: "If cows and horses are the so-called gods, and even the natural laws of natural selection have to be violated, then it is really natural that human beings have obtained today's status!" Leave these contradictory words to the false gods themselves! ”
Although there are a large number of these zombies, they are originally ordinary villagers, even some people who practice martial arts, and they don't know how to use weapons after being blown up, and there are no mages in the village, so naturally there are no enemies like magic zombies.
So in front of He Ming now, these seemingly turbulent zombies have only played a role in spreading this sentence at most, and they have not touched or affected him in the slightest.
I saw that at the beginning of the thunderbolt, a sword light slashed through, and the tall zombie who was closest to He Ming and was about to pounce on him was just missing half of his head, although he fell down silently, and then He Ming moved quickly, constantly making these clumsy and stumbling zombies unable to surround himself by moving around, and from time to time there would be one or two who were left behind.
Although there are a lot of these brainless zombies, and they keep muttering in their mouths, their combat power is not even half as strong as the zombies in the mine, and now that the divine soldiers are in hand, He Ming's martial arts are no longer what they used to be, and they will not be able to kill them. As long as a zombie is lonely, He Ming is sword flash, and a zombie immediately falls.
After a while, all the zombies turned into by the villagers fell down again, and after the battle ended, He Ming thought about the connection between these things a little, and felt that the words of the zombies were meaningless at all, just to divert his thinking angle and make it reasonable for these strange hoof monsters to attack this place.
Since he didn't find any connection with Li Yueqin, he frowned and began to check the footprints on the ground. The footprints of coming and leaving are obvious, these unknown monsters turned over from the eastern side of the mountain, and left from that side.
There are no footprints to prove that Li Yueqin was taken away by them, but judging from the neat pace, the actions of these guys are planned and organized, and if you follow the road to find them, you should be able to trace some clues.
He took the sword and followed the footprints carefully, over the mountains and mountains.
Less than half an hour after He Ming left the village, two groups of Shenjun's war horses appeared at the entrance of Viper Mountain Village carrying Ye Zilan and the Guardian. They saw that the horse he was riding was leisurely grazing on his own, and the man was gone.
