"Brother, what happened, are you seriously injured?" Cheng Xiaoxiao asked as she ran with Cheng Tian.

"I'm also not sure what happened. Listening to Cheng Erbo's speculation, it may be that there is going to be a beast tide, and the beasts in the depths of the mountain will rush down the mountain, and the beast herd may destroy the village in large areas, and it is not safe here, so we must hurry to take refuge in the mountain. ”

Cheng Tian felt the wound on his chest, still aching, but he had recovered a lot, and continued:

"It doesn't matter if I'm injured, I was injured when I was hunting, and now it's basically healed, you don't have to worry. ”

After thinking about it, Cheng Tian said seriously:

"Xiaoxiao, if the beast tide really breaks out, it must be extremely dangerous, you must put your own safety first. ”

"If, I mean if. In case of danger and a wild beast surrounds us, I will escort you first, and you must lead the way to the mountain without looking back. Brother, I've been hunting for so many years, and I can run away by myself, but you stay but make me have some scruples, don't stay and wait for me. ”

Cheng Tian's voice was low.

Cheng Xiaoxiao lowered his head and hurried away, but did not speak. But she had her own thoughts in mind:

"My brother must be thinking that if there is danger, he will sacrifice himself to save me out! I don't want to do this! I run for my life, even if I really go to Bishan Ling, what can I do. Mom and Dad are long gone, if my brother is gone, what's the point of surviving by myself. ”

The little girl silently made up her mind, and her eyes became firm.

Cheng Tian is still admonishing:

"You're so smart, like a child under five years old. Even if you don't have me, my brother believes that you can live well in Bishan Ling, right?"

"Brother, don't say it, I know everything, we'll go to Bishan to get it together." ”

......

It was supposed to be the middle of the day, but the sky was getting more and more gloomy, as if a big black pot was upside down on the earth, and the air was dull and damp.

Bang!

A blast of thunder resounded through the heavens and the earth, and the lightning followed closely behind the thunderbolt serpent that seemed to be dancing its teeth and claws, and quickly climbed over the black canopy.

Click, click, click.

Huge raindrops fell, slapping people in the face.

The raindrops fell faster and faster, and in an instant a torrential rain poured down, as if countless whips were struck on the ground, setting off a cloud of water and dust, and everything was blurred.

In the blink of an eye, the roads were muddy and difficult to walk, pulling the footsteps of everyone running wildly.

The villagers didn't care about complaining, time was precious, and everyone kept walking, all the way to the mountain.

In the rainstorm, there were several beast roars looming behind the team, followed by the shouts of the villagers.

"Help!

"Ahh

"Run, everyone, the beasts are rushing over!!"

Before everyone could see the situation of the herd behind them clearly, during the shouting, more than a dozen green wolves running extremely fast crossed the crowd and rushed to the front to intercept the entire team.

Under the lightning and thunder, the panting green wolf's eyes shone with a faint green light.

Seeing that the team was stopped by the green wolf, Cheng Erbo spat and tore off his coat, and raised his hunting fork high to greet everyone:

"Special mother! What are you afraid of, come a few men, hurry up and deal with this green wolf! No matter how late the beast herd arrives, you won't be able to leave!"

Crescent Village is located on the edge of the mountain, the whole village lives on hunting, there are more than 1,000 people in 200 households in the village, and there are 500 people in the hunters.

At the moment of life and death, no one can care about hiding it, Cheng Erbo shouted, and everyone took their bows and knives out of their sheaths and swarmed up. The green wolves in front of them saw that the situation was not good, and before they could turn around and flee, they were nailed to the ground by arrows.

As soon as the few green wolves in front of the team were slaughtered, the beasts roared behind the group, but the roars of the villagers grew louder and louder.

Everyone in front turned their heads to look, dozens of green wolves were already fighting with the villagers behind, rain and blood were mixed, and the scene was chaotic and tragic.

Looking further back, a herd of more than a dozen beasts composed of wild boars, green wolves, and spin-tailed tapirs rushed in, and the force was fierce, with a total of four or five hundred heads, and there were even white-clawed apes and spotted leopards, which were extremely lethal to ordinary hunters.

Everyone's hearts are cold, it's over!

Can't escape!

The onslaught of four or five hundred beasts was enough to wipe out this thousand-strong army.

Even if there is a fierce battle, there are still villagers who survive, but they are dragged by the herd, and sooner or later they will have to be overwhelmed by the steady stream of beasts coming up from behind.

There's no time to think about it!

Cheng Erbo yelled:

"Each family has an adult hunter, the stronger the better, and stay to withstand the herd behind. The others escorted the old and weak women and children to the mountain to receive them! Hurry! No matter how late it is, the whole village will die here!"

"One for each family, two hundred of them stay where they are! This path is narrow, and two hundred of us are enough to hold back the herd. Be quick! The others will set off immediately! Don't stop, go straight to the official road in front to find the Lord's Mansion army!"

Cheng Erbo didn't say that everyone should find the army of the Lord's Mansion to come back, he knew that there were still nearly two hundred miles away from the city of Pishan Territory, and the possibility of finding the army of the Lord's Mansion in a short period of time was actually very small, not to mention that I was afraid that what the army would find was just a wreckage.

If you stay behind and stop the herd, you will surely die!

Looking at the choppy herd, everyone knows that this is a dead end.

But that's the only hope!

......

"Dad, you take everyone to Pishan Ling, and I'll stay. "Cheng Feng is out of the ranks.

Cheng Erbo kicked his son Cheng Feng:

"You keep a fart! Carry your brother on your back, take care of your mother, hurry up!

There's no time to delay!Second Aunt Cheng looked back at Second Uncle Cheng.

Aunt Cheng, who was chattering endlessly at any time, didn't say a word, her eyes were full of tears, and she pulled Cheng Feng and left.

......

"Brother-in-law, I'll stay, my sister already has a child in her belly, I can't do without you, take care of my sister!" Cheng Zhiyong took a step forward, holding a knife in his left hand, and his right arm was wrapped in a strap, and scarlet blood oozed out.

Jing Bei looked at his crying wife softly, stroked her already erect belly, and said softly: "Wan'er, I can't help you, take care of our children." ”

looked at Cheng Zhiyong again: "You kid take care of your sister, your arms are broken, what's the use of you staying here!"

......

Looking at the familiar faces in these memories are joys and sorrows.

Cheng Tian's blood was surging, and there was an impulse in his heart, he couldn't wait to stay here, fight to the death with all the hunters, and sprinkle this blood for everyone.

But looking down at Cheng Xiaoxiao, who was usually well-behaved and obedient, he desperately grabbed his arm, tears were in his eyes, and he kept repeating in a low voice, "Brother, don't go, don't go......"

I can't die, I have to live for the sake of the little girl!

......

The roar of the beasts grew louder and louder, and the claws of their hooves and claws collided with the muddy water on the ground louder and louder, like a galloping horse.

Cheng Erbo is out of the ranks!

Jingbei is out of the ranks!

Cheng Jian is out of the ranks!

Cheng Huamin is out of the ranks!

Wang Cai is out!

Ran Honglie is out of the ranks!

......

Every family in Crescent Village is making their final farewells, and there is no time to argue, and three or two sentences will decide the clutch of a lifetime.

Except for the hunters who left behind the palace, the people of Crescent Village didn't have time to grieve, and quickly walked into the rain curtain to continue walking.

The hunters took one last look at their family, turned silently, clenched their weapons, straightened their backs, and raised their heads to face the herd.

Everyone knew that no matter how many beasts they could kill if they stayed here, they would just buy a little more time for the group of women and children behind.

Today is the last battle of this life.
