Chapter 179
As soon as the sun rose, the group quietly left the mountain village and entered the mountain by a small road.
The team, which originally consisted of more than a dozen people, slowly attrifled as the way forward lengthened, not due to injury or death, but to the retreat left for the others.
The return trip is the most critical, and it is also the most grasped, if the matter is successful, injury and bloodshed are almost inevitable, and in this beast-infested mountain, the smell of blood will attract the attention of countless beasts, if no one maintains the best condition, the group will all stay in the mountain.
Seeing that there were fewer and fewer people in the team, Chen Yue didn't say anything more although he had some of them.
Chen Yue can see that the people who stay are all relatively weak and younger in the team, which is not wrong.
"Big brother, how far is it?"
The silence all the way made Chen Yue a little impatient, and he walked quickly to the front and asked Boss Zhang.
"It's not far away, and when you climb over this mountain, you can see the Valley of the Dead."
Boss Zhang listened attentively to the movement in front of him, and did not answer, Wang Laosan, who was squatting behind him, replied in a low voice.
The hill ahead? There are a lot of hills ahead, which one is it? Chen Yue still knows the truth of running a dead horse in Wangshan.
Chen Yue also planned to ask about the situation carefully, but he didn't want Boss Zhang to suddenly lie on the ground, grabbed the handle of the knife with his right hand, raised his left hand into the air, and made a vigilant gesture.
Boss Wang pressed Chen Yue and Wang Laosan, who were muttering together, to the ground one by one, and slipped his hands and covered their mouths.
There was no time to pay attention to the unpleasant smell on Boss Wang's hand, Chen Yue swept the tentative energy through the area around everyone's body as soon as he lay down, and did not find anything wrong.
"I didn't feel any beasts." Chen Yue, who was relieved, took Boss Wang's hand away, hooked his waist and hurriedly came to Boss Zhang's side, "Big brother, why are you vomiting?" Did you find? ”
"It's so quiet." Zhang Lao said in a loud voice, "Along the way, I always feel that something is wrong, the road is too quiet, in the past, this time was the most lively time in the forest, after entering the mountain, you can also meet monkeys throwing stones and the like." ”
"Don't say it's a monkey, I haven't even seen a rabbit along the way." Boss Wang also walked over and added in a low voice, "I noticed that the grass here is strange, it should be a large reptile animal, and more than once, some of the grass has obviously been overwhelmed recently." ”
"Reptiles?" Chen Yue asked softly, Chen Yue is very self-aware about the understanding of animals in the mountains, so he will ask when he encounters things he doesn't understand, and he knows more and has more choices when he encounters trouble.
Boss Zhang and Boss Wang glanced at each other and said in unison, "Snake! Big snake! ”
"Crawling? That's a glide ......."
"Brother Zhang, something is wrong." Boss Wang sat on the ground, took out a piece of dry cake, tore off half of it and handed it to Chen Yue, and gave the other half to Boss Zhang, "This trace is obviously left by the big snake, but this humanoid snake, there is no reason why it will come out of the Valley of the Dead at this time." ”
"Big brothers, look." A person who had scattered out trotted to Chen Yue's side and handed over an item wrapped in gray cloth in his hand, "I saw it in the grass over there just now, so I picked it up." ”
A piece of bone nirvana, mutilated, as if it had been corroded, looked new, and there was some viscous liquid on the surface of the bone.
"Something went wrong," Boss Wang looked at Boss Zhang with a dark face, "This is obviously ......"
"Whatever it is, cheer up and be careful." Boss Zhang waved his hand and said, "It's safe for the time being, all the brothers hurry up and eat something, and they don't know when they will be able to eat on the road behind." ”
The words are unclear, they clearly see something, but they still have to hide it, what are they playing?
Everyone finished eating silently, not daring to let go of eating, it was enough to have a seven-point full, and then add a little water and continue walking.
For the rest of the journey, several people walked quite fast, and even the steps of exploring the path were omitted, and I didn't know where the confidence of the others came from.
Walking through one hill and coming to the foot of another, Boss Zhang stopped everyone, and then walked to the creek with the best Wang Lao Er, sprinkled most of the powdered medicine in the stream, and then quickly retreated and returned to everyone.
"Duck over the rock, quick!" Boss Zhang took Chen Yue's hand and ran towards a boulder beside everyone without saying anything.
The others also looked like someone was chasing after them, running quickly, constantly borrowing strength, and finally all of them climbed the boulder.
"Restrain your breath and don't make a sound." Boss Zhang gave an order to the others, and asked Boss Wang to warn him again, then turned his head to Chen Yue and said solemnly, "Third brother, take back your feelings, no matter what you see next, don't be afraid, with the eldest brother here, I won't let you have an accident." ”
"Do you want to be so serious? It's really a joke, if I can accompany you into the mountain, I will have the consciousness of handing over my life, life and death are let go, how can there be anything to be afraid of? ”
On the bright side, in front of Boss Zhang, Chen Yue's head connected to show that he was following the instructions, but he didn't care in his heart, and he was very disdainful of Boss Zhang's words.
Knock knock, a dull sound came from far and near, the beast in the small mountain seemed to have just been awakened from a dream, all kinds of howls sounded, and began to run quickly, towards the direction where Chen Yue and the others were.
To be precise, it was towards Chen Yue and the others who were drinking not far away.
The black guy covered in mud and pine resin should be a wild boar, right? God, this monster with a physique is also a pig? Don't be funny!
And the big guy over there, the one who is very domineering, the guy who just slapped the monkey in front of him away, is clearly a blind bear!
There are also foxes, hares, ...... Is this the apocalyptic mass escape?
Chen Yue rarely exclaimed without gaffes, but was just stupid by the scene in front of him...... Not to mention how scary the scene of this beast running wildly is, it is just a monster like an enemy of the sky, but at this time, they can run together in harmony, without killing each other, this scene itself is weird enough.
A strange smell spread in the surrounding air, and Chen Yue, who was nervous, forgot his fear in the face of the frenzy of the beast, and his nose twitched in his mind, trying to find out the source of this smell.
Unconsciously, the stones under the crowd were covered with a layer of gray-white powder, and Boss Zhang and Wang Lao Er still grabbed the powder and sprinkled it on everyone, and the strange smell came from the powder.
Just smelling, a ball of powder was thrown on his body, and the taste became even stronger, Chen Yue, who took a deep breath, choked and coughed, and made a sound to attract a grip, so he could only cover his mouth tightly, a face was flushed °C strange powder, but it had a very good effect, on the way here, everyone who was left behind carried two or three bags, Chen Yue had seen curiously, and there were all kinds of powders in it.
Holding his breath and waiting for the powder flying in mid-air to fall, Chen Yue finally got used to the taste, and after the cough was over, he took a long breath and turned his eyes to look at the beast tide.
When the beast tide came, it was like an earthquake, and the whole world was shaking, and Chen Yue, who was lying on the stone, had to hold on to the bulge of the stone tightly in order to maintain the balance of his body.
Unknown powder, the effect did not disappoint, when the beast tide came, around the boulder, deliberately bypassed, as if the boulder was something unapproachable, even if some beasts were trampled or squeezed to the boulder, those who could stand up would leave immediately, and the others were trampled into meat sludge in the run.
A boulder, like an island in the back of the beast, split the entire beast tide into two halves, and after passing by the boulder, the beast tide merged into one again.
Chen Yue knew what the scene of a moth fighting a fire was, but the scene in front of him was even more moving.
All the beasts rushed to the stream, not only the beasts from the mountain on Chen Yue's side, but also the other mountain, gathered in the small stream, their movements as if they had been trained, regardless of their size, they were all drinking water.
That's right, it's drinking water! All the beasts are drinking water.
The small stream did not have much water in the first place, and the arrival of so many wild beasts directly cut off the stream, and there were many wild beasts that could not squeeze forward.
The battle took place, starting from the outermost part of the stream and spreading all the way to the beast in the stream.
The beast that did not have a chance to enter the middle of the stream began to frantically devour the beast in front of it, and once it saw the gap, it squeezed into it, just to have a chance to drink the stream water, even if it was only one sip.
The beast in the middle of the stream also began to threaten, trying to protect the stream around its body, attacking any beast that came close to it as an enemy.
The short-legged rabbit opened its mouth at the wild wolf in front of it, and the wild boar charged at the blind bear without hesitation, just to drink a little more water.
The blind bear, who ran at the front and had the opportunity to possess the most stream, landed on all fours, bowed his head and drank water, and even swallowed the muddy water with mud into his stomach, and when the stream around his body was gone, he began to look up to the trombone, and the body man stood up, and his two thick palms waved from side to side, and any beast that stood in front of him was fanned away.
The scene was bloody and shocking, Chen Yue's mouth was never closed, and when he saw the blind bear confronting the black-skinned wild boar, he suddenly turned his head and looked at Boss Zhang and Wang Er with a shocked face.
God, what the hell did you two guys sprinkle in the stream? Why did it attract such a big commotion?
Besides, even if you sprinkle something in water, it doesn't make sense that it will work so quickly!
Even if it has a fatal attraction, it takes time to brew, but everything in front of him clearly told Chen Yue that the moment the powder was sprinkled, half of the beasts on the mountain knew about it...... Could it be that the beast could sense it too?
There was no excitement on the faces of Boss Zhang and the others, no joy at the success of the scheme, and no frightening for the bloody scene in front of them...... Their faces are clearly anxious and expectant.
Dozens of meters away all sorts of crazy beasts gathered, anxious and emotion is understandable, but what does anticipation mean?
This meeting is not enough to satisfy you? Chen Yue believed that his eyes, and the faces of other people did have more or less expectations.
There was no need to explain, Chen Yue saw that the faces of Boss Zhang and the others showed surprise, and he did not hide it, and some people even unconsciously clenched their fists, expressing their inner excitement.
An even more unpleasant smell was carried by the wind, making people feel sick, Chen Yue turned his head in a state of nausea, and his body instantly fell into a stiff state.
Scorpions, black scorpions, overwhelming.
From the lower reaches of the stream, the tide is generally rushing with scorpions, and there are scorpions as far as the eye can see.
The scorpion with the big mouth of the bowl is all in the same color, and the sound of the claws is all merged into a sound wave, which is deafening.
The scorpion colony was split in half by the creek and rushed from downstream to upstream.
When Chen Yue was still wondering why the scorpion group was separated, a large scorpion suddenly appeared in the middle of the stream that had been cut off.
If it can be said that the scorpion with a large bowl mouth can be said to be born by a special environment, or that some special varieties of scorpions grow but it is normal for the bowl mouth to be large, then this last scorpion is to challenge Chen Yue's cognitive limits.
At the moment when the large scorpion appeared, Chen Yue blurted out with an exclamation, "Crystal Pioneer!" ”
That's right, the starry scorpion in the stream is simply a realistic version of the "Crystal Vanguard" Skarna in League of Legends!
The army is too much, and the grass does not grow!
In Chen Yue's heart, somehow, such a sentence suddenly appeared.
Run, run for their lives, the beasts recovered from the frenzied scramble for the stream, and after the field fell into an eerie dead silence, all kinds of howls rang out, and all the beasts that had been fighting for life and death began to flee.
Whether it was the big boar rushing left and right, or the black blind man, all of them did not pause at all, and began to flee towards the top of the stream, and the other beasts also scattered, without a definite direction, and fled frantically, as long as they could stay away from the scorpion group, in any direction.
Some of the beasts panicked, and after being squeezed by the other beasts, they ran down the stream, and did not react until they were about to approach the scorpions, but it was too late.
Chen Yue watched the gray wolf in the middle of the stream, forgot to escape, and watched the approach of the "Crystal Pioneer", waiting for death to come.
Despair, the energy that Chen exuded more and more, reflected the situation in the gray wolf's eyes, and in those eyes, there were clearly some human-like emotions, which were deeply desperate, so desperate that they no longer resisted.
The "Crystal Pioneer" pincers pulled, and the body swung sideways, and the gray wolf's body was thrown out like a rag, landing on the bank of the stream, and buried by the scorpions.
The speed of the scorpion swarm was very fast, and the scorpion that ran at the front had already caught up with the tail of the fleeing beast tide, and the slaughter began to be staged.
One scorpion may not be able to help the vast majority of the beasts present, but what about ten hundred? How many scorpions are in the tens of thousands?
The scorpion that struck first would inject the toxin into the prey with a tail needle, and the scorpion behind it would divide the beast with little effort.
Chen Yue only knew that the scorpion's toxin was a very effective medicinal material after treatment, but he didn't know that the original most primitive scorpion toxin was so fierce, reminding that it was ten times more than a hundred times the beast of an ordinary scorpion, and after being pierced by a small scorpion, it would stiffen all over, and it would take less than a while to breathe.
What the eye sees may be false, but what the ability to emanate and feel is extremely real, as if it were in front of you.
Chen Yue's face turned pale, especially when the wild boar was crawling all over his body by scorpions, and finally fell down with a wail, Chen Yue's heart twitched.
Surprise? This is the surprise that Boss Zhang is waiting for?
Attract the beast with powder, and then watch the beast melee until the scorpion finally comes to an end...... What is it? The festival of the island's inhabitants?
After entering the mountain, he uses blood and killing to show his heart to the heavens, and asks the heavens to help him achieve his goals?
This kind of thing, Chen Yue once saw in the book, reprimanded the author's barbarism, just treated it as a story, laughed it off, but didn't want to have such a similar picture in front of him, but he was one of the participants!
Chen Yue turned his head, wanting Boss Zhang to give an explanation, and made up his mind that if the truth was really like what he thought, he would definitely turn around and leave, and whoever of them wanted to send him to death would go by himself, anyway, Chen Yue would not wait...... It's okay to repay kindness, but it's not okay to lose your conscience.
The scorpion group finally walked over, Chen Yue propped up his hands and wanted to ask Boss Zhang, but was slapped by Boss Zhang and pressed on the boulder again.
It seemed that there was something driving in the dark, Chen Yue's head turned around with difficulty, looked towards the stream again, and saw the "crystal pioneer" digging in the middle of the stream.
The scorpion king, with a slight purple body, dug into the stream, a pair of pincers waved in mid-air, the tail needle did not move, but the body turned and looked in the direction of the boulder.
The energy released unconsciously was withdrawn, and Chen Yue clearly felt the banter in the eyes of the "crystal pioneer".
It's just a scorpion, and it shows such an expression, this Nima is a sperm!
complained in his heart, but Chen Yue no longer dared to let out his thoughts, and honestly lay on the boulder, motionless.
The Scorpion King paused in the stream for a moment, until there was no more energy to sweep past, and then he shook a pair of pincers and moved quickly, finally merging into the scorpion group.
Raising his head again, Chen Yue saw that the direction of the scorpion group had deflected, and instead of chasing the fleeing beast, he entered a canyon on the opposite mountain.
"How many? Is it enough? After the scorpion group disappeared from sight, Wang Laoer's voice sounded from Chen Yue's side.
"Tens of thousands, if there are no special changes in the Valley of the Dead in the past few years, it should be enough." Boss Zhang stood up and looked over to the other side of the stream, as if he was observing something.
"Tens of thousands of scorpions, even if ten against one snake, that can deal with thousands of snakes," Boss Wang came up with a smile on his face, "What's more, this time the Scorpion King personally led the team, that guy is definitely not easy to deal with, this helper is good." ”
The others began to comment on the rambling of the beasts, and after the beast tide passed, everyone finally relaxed, lifted their grips, and began to release the pressure in the form of conversation.
After shutting up and listening for a while, Chen Yue finally figured out that Boss Zhang and the others had done all this in order to attract scorpions to help deal with the snakes in the Valley of the Dead, and his own group had the idea of the yellow finch behind.
Unexpectedly, the eldest brother is quite yin! This method can be used...... Although there are too many deaths, there is a wound to the heavens, but ...... As long as he can serve the purpose and use some means, Chen Yue is still acceptable.
In any case, the death of some beasts can attract tens of thousands of scorpions to help, this business is not a loss, but it is much more reliable than these seven people rushing into the valley rashly, fighting the snake group with their blood, and then killing the snake king.
