Chapter 406: Tengu Eclipse Day
The place chosen by Zhiqiu Yiye is not bad, the top of the hill dozens of zhang wide is almost all gray-brown rocks, and the centipede can no longer use the ability to drill the ground to emerge from the ground, so it can only climb up from below little by little.
Xiao Sha and his entourage, who were guarding above, surrounded the Fu family's father and daughter, with Xiao Sha as the mainstay, Zhiqiu Yiye and Zuo Qianhu as the auxiliary, plus Ning Caichen, who was holding a fine iron rod, vigilantly killed all the centipedes that climbed up.
Fortunately, the command and control of the big centipede was lost, and at this time, most of the centipedes all over the mountains and fields were fighting each other, and it was found that there were only a few centipedes with delicious meat. It took nearly an hour for a few people to kill three or four thousand, and although there were a few of them that were large and aggressive, they didn't hurt anyone.
However, after such a long period of continuous action consumption, Ning Caichen, who showed his strength for the first time, was already a little out of strength, Zuo Qianhu's arm was also slightly sore, and Zhiqiu Yiye didn't know whether it was true qi or mana, and the power of Zhiqiu Yiye was also very powerful, and the individual centipedes in frontal combat naturally could not form combat effectiveness, but anyone who continuously killed insects would feel soft.
Of course, the hard work of several people was not in vain after all!
At this time, the corpses of large and small centipedes scattered around the rocky hill successfully covered their smell, and as the number of corpses increased, the fewer centipedes climbed up, and in the end, even one or two of them climbed up to find death without opening their eyes, and were naturally easily killed by a few people.
As an hour passed, and the time turned to the afternoon, the dense fog of the surrounding wilderness had completely dissipated, and although there were still many centipedes fleeing or dying in the fight with each other, they were far less than a tenth of an hour ago, and most of the ground lying on the ground, regardless of distance, were the remains of dead corpses.
Seeing that there were fewer and fewer centipedes, Xiao Sha, who was worried about the safety of everyone in Guobei Town, waited for a while, and when the centipedes below became more sparse, he was about to urge everyone to move, and he didn't even speak when his mouth opened, and a sudden change occurred!
Overhead, the sky was still clear after the dense fog dispersed, but at this moment, the whole world darkened a lot, making people's vision blur a lot.
This abnormal phenomenon appeared very abruptly, and the movement was very great, and everyone who noticed the change raised their heads one after another, and at first glance, Fu Tianqiu was the first to exclaim: "Tiangu eats the sun...... This is a tengu eclipse that can only be encountered in tens or hundreds of years......"
"Tengu ......"
When everyone heard this, they knew it!
When most people were still attracted by the rapidly darkening celestial phenomenon, Ning Caichen ran very quickly behind him and was protected, took down a newly made torch pole from the horse that had not been used, took out the fire fold and lit it to remind everyone: "Hurry up and light the fire, otherwise we won't be able to see the centipede when it gets completely dark."
Centipede, yes!
As soon as they heard this, everyone woke up, and one by one they took out the torches that Qingfeng Yuechi had prepared from the horses and lit them, Qingfeng Yuechi was also thoughtful in order to save his father, and there were really a lot of things on these horses, and there were too many torches for each person.
Zuo Qianhu took one more, lit it, walked to Xiao Sha's side and put the torch in front of him: "Take it, don't worry, these beasts will disperse in a short time...... Well, be careful! ”
Call!
In the middle of speaking, his face suddenly changed, and he raised his hand and waved the torch in his hand at Xiao Sha's side.
Under the light of the fire, a fat centipede half an arm's length immediately squirmed and quickly dodged to the side when it encountered the firelight, and without saying a word, he forced it back, immediately stepped forward a few steps forward and stomped down on its back, and with a crackle, the centipede shattered in an instant.
At this time, Xiao Sha was distracted, and instinctively turned around to defend when he heard the movement, and immediately rejoiced when he saw this scene: "Are they afraid of fire? ”
The voice came out, and everyone didn't know why, and they all stopped what they were doing and looked at him!
But seeing the light of the torch shining in the darkness that had completely darkened and could no longer see a trace of sunlight, he said with a slight excitement: "Listen to me, I have a way to get over, everyone hangs a dry branch in front of the horse, after it is lit, we will take advantage of this light to hurry, without the command of the big centipede, they will only follow their instincts, we can go now"
"Now?"
Zuo Qianhu and Zhiqiu Yiye were stunned, are they in such a hurry?
Ning Caichen, who guessed that he was thinking a little, immediately nodded in agreement when he heard this: "This is a good way, there were so many centipedes before, our horses would be bitten wherever they got off, now you can try it." ”
Xiao Sha smiled at him and then looked at Zuo Qianhu and Zhiqiu Yiye, as well as the father and daughter of the Fu family, although they didn't understand what he was doing in such a hurry, they also felt that it was feasible after thinking about it for a while, so everyone started to get busy again.
The branches of dead trees in the surrounding wilderness are not difficult to find, and Xiao Sha and Zhiqiu Yiye, who went out carefully, have brought back a large number of dead trees, and everyone picked out several cracks from them and put them on the horse, and after one of them was cracked, he lit it in his hand and held it in his hand to increase the firepower, and then they got on their horses and opened the way to the official road down the mountain with fire.
Since Xiao Sha's horse that had fought against Yuan Tong had been killed, he had to share a horse with Yuechi at this time, followed by Zuo Qianhu and Ning Caichen, Fu Qingfeng and Fu Tianqiu, Zhiqiu Yiye alone, and a group of several people rushed down the hill together.
And it turned out as he expected!
A single scattered centipede is extremely shy about things like firelight!
Along the way, the fire shone everywhere, but all centipedes with a length of less than three feet retreated, and although the longer ones still took the initiative to jump up and attack people, the few people on the horse either had martial arts or were protected, and it was so close that Xiao Sha could take care of them all by grabbing a handful of broken stones in his hand.
Although the firelight also made the horses under him a little uneasy, but at this time, who would take into account the feelings of the horses, and just smoke without leaving, until they left!
Cautiously all the way to the official road, followed by a flat river, Xiao Sha urged a few people to drive their horses to trot forward, while running vigilantly observing the movement of the centipedes around, it was extremely difficult to walk in just six or seven miles, and almost all the way was stepping on the corpse of the centipede.
After six or seven miles, there was only half of the distance left from Guobei Town, and the centipede corpses on the official road had gradually disappeared, replaced by a very flat and spacious dirt road that was dark but very flat.
When they arrived here, several people who stepped out of the centipede group took a breath and felt like they were reincarnated, and then they all rode their horses and drove towards Guobei Town, Xiao Sha took the lead in grabbing the reins of the moon pool and rushed forward non-stop, looking even more eager than before.
He is indeed in a hurry now, and he has not been in a short time to travel to the world of Shenzhou, although he doesn't remember much whether the centipede spirit in the second part of A Chinese Ghost Story appeared during the day or at night.
But as soon as the tengu eclipse appeared, he recalled that the centipede spirit seemed to have revealed its true body because of the changes in the sky, and Zuo Qianhu in the plot also took this opportunity to follow him into a temple, and only then did he learn that most of the people in the Manchu Dynasty were sucked into a shell.
The appearance of the Tengu Eclipse Day means that the centipede essence is likely to show its true body as in the plot, so ...... Does it mean that Feng Ling and the others will have a harder time fighting against them?
The centipede essence in the original plot is already jaw-droppingly large, and now that it has had blue crystal for a year, how big will the centipede essence be, or what abilities will it have? Breaking off the Xuan Kill and joining forces with it, can Feng Ling and a few Feng Ling be able to fight?
Everything is still unknown when I see Feng Ling and the fat man!
And the unknown is often more disturbing than the known!
