A sudden earthquake in the middle of the night? Xie Qingning was a little shocked, just when she changed her clothes for the first time but didn't have time to sort out her long hair, she heard the frightened cry of a stone outside the door, "Hurry up, the beast tide is coming, the beast tide!" ”

Beast tide? Xie Qingning was stunned for a moment before she reacted, and when she walked out of the house with her hair scattered, she found that Xie Huazhao and others had gathered in the courtyard, looking at the stones with a frightened face, and asking what the "beast tide" was.

"The beast tide is the monster beast suddenly going crazy," Shi spread his hands and explained helplessly.

All the monsters in the mountains and forests suddenly went crazy together? Everyone felt a little unbelievable, and just as Xie Qingning came out of the house, all eyes suddenly fell on her.

The three-day retreat broke through, but as soon as he fell, he was wearing a white gown, which made his body exquisite, which made people swallow saliva. The long black and silky hair was like black satin, and the face was more and more crystal like jade, and a pair of beautiful eyes were shining with anticipation, and the pitch black and dazzling were like stars, which made everyone stunned on the spot.

"Sister Qingning, you ...... So beautiful. Lan Zhihua couldn't help but exclaim, even the stone couldn't turn his eyes clear, and he couldn't close his mouth for a long time.

Xie Qingning was not in the mood to discuss this, so he walked quickly to the stone and asked, "Beast tides are a common occurrence?" ”

Shi smelled the faint fragrance wafting from her, and was stunned for a moment before replying with a red face, "It's not, but I met it once when I was three years old, and that time someone killed a demon beast king, which caused the beasts to mutiny." ”

"Demon Beast King?" Xie Qingning rolled her beautiful eyes, and suddenly remembered that Senior Brother Feiluan's sound skills could restrain the restlessness of the beast, but unfortunately she didn't know anything about music and rhythm, so she could only ask helplessly, "Then is there any way to avoid it?" ”

"No, I'm going to inform the village chief now, and I can only leave the village first." Shishi's expression was very solemn, it seemed that the situation was quite serious, and Xie Qingning had no doubt that a beast tide might wipe out the entire village, or even the entire valley.

I don't know why, she always felt that this beast tide was a little strange, and the unexpected event that she only encountered once in ten years happened to be encountered by them? Too much of a coincidence, there must be a demon, she thought to herself.

Soon, the whole village was alarmed, the sound of gongs and drums was deafening, and the people fled in panic, describing themselves as extremely embarrassed.

As the shaking of the mountains and forests became more and more obvious, the earth shook non-stop, the houses shook violently, Xie Qingning looked at the villagers who were running away in a hurry, her eyes were slightly dim, she looked up at the dark mountains and forests, and the picture of countless fierce beasts rushing in her mind flashed in her mind, the surrounding trees collapsed layer by layer like waves, the weeds on the ground were trampled out of countless deep pits, the birds in the forest fled one after another, but the beasts all over the ground could not escape this disaster, either they were trampled into meatloaf or were bitten by the fierce beasts, blood splashed everywhere, the sky was full of flying branches and leaves, and the sky and the earth changed color. The night was trampled into mud.

Xie Qingning's eyebrows frowned slightly, and he suddenly made up his mind and said, "I'll go and see, you guys withdraw first." ”

No one answered behind her, but when she looked back while sweeping into the dark mountains and forests, she found that Xie Huazhao and the others had all followed, and even Yanyu was holding the black cat behind her, her face was slightly nervous, but her eyes were full of expectation.

Xie Qingning stroked his forehead, and just as he wanted to open his mouth to persuade him, he saw Xie Huazhao roll his eyes and say, "Don't want to leave us again this time, no matter what, we have to go with you, we have to go together, we have to stay together." ”

Seeing the resoluteness in his eyes, Xie Qingning's gaze swept over everyone, even the Zheng and Lan Zhihua expressed a certain strong determination, and even the four guards hired by Xie Tan also pulled out the weapons in their hands fearlessly, a picture of a big battle, as if on the battlefield.

Seeing this scene, Xie Qingning had no choice but to say solemnly, "If we let the demon beasts rush out of the mountains and forests, I'm afraid I don't know how many villages and people will suffer from flying disasters, even if we can't kill them all, at least we must continue their pace and buy more time for the people." ”

After her proposal, everyone felt that their hearts were on fire, after all, it was a chivalrous act of asking for the people's life, as monks, they were duty-bound, even those guards felt inexplicably excited, even if it was really a sea of swords and fires in front of them, they did not regret it.

Xie Qingning saw that everyone's hearts were firm, and the apprehension in her heart finally dissipated a little, she thought about it and said, "If the strength is not continued, you must find a safe place to take refuge, there is nothing more precious than life." As she spoke, she turned her gaze to Lan Yongzhi and said, "You and I have the highest cultivation, so the responsibility of finding the Demon Beast King is entrusted to us, as long as we can kill it with all our strength, we should be able to prevent this beast tide from spreading even wider." ”

"Okay, I'm fine." Lan Yongzhi replied in a deep voice, a certain light in his eyes flashed and disappeared, but Xie Qingning deliberately ignored it.

She lowered her head and took out some porcelain bottles from the brocade bag around her waist, and distributed a few elixirs to everyone to restore the spirit or stop bleeding, in case of emergency, and then pulled out a blood-red dagger, the moonlight fell on the blade, and the blood flashed across everyone's faces, making people feel a little nervous.

"What kind of weapon is this, I don't think I've ever seen you use it." Xie Huazhao asked curiously as he followed Xie Qingning towards the mountains and forests.

"It's called Red Blood, and it's a good thing that Xie Tan brought back to me from Shangjing." Xie Qingning glanced at Xie Tan with a smile, and the latter answered knowingly, "Yes, I felt very suitable for the eyes when I saw it at first sight, but the price is also expensive and scary, if it weren't for Miss Seven who told her to help her pick a suitable weapon regardless of the price, I would really be reluctant to take a picture of it." ”

In order to ease the atmosphere and prevent everyone from going to danger with pressure in their hearts, Xie Tan and Xie Qingning deliberately shifted to a relaxed topic, which really attracted everyone to ask about the price of red blood, how did it come about, where it was auctioned, what treasures were there at the auction, etc., but it did achieve a certain effect, at least everyone had a relaxed smile on their faces, and they didn't feel that they were going to a dangerous feast and might die on the spot at any time.

In Xie Qingning's sea of knowledge, Fan Mo's voice suddenly came, "Do you really think that with your strength, you can stop the occurrence of the beast tide?" Do you know that those demon beasts have no spiritual sense, they are just murderous killings, after all, they have never experienced such a scene, I am afraid it will be difficult to deal with. ”

"To have such an experience is the perfect experience for a monk, and I will not let them be in danger." Xie Qingning's self-confidence made Fan Mo very unimpressed, he changed to a more comfortable posture in the arms of the smoke and rain, and still closed his eyes to communicate with her in his divine sense.

"I don't know where your confidence is, but maybe the demon beasts in your world are not as terrible as I imagined, and it is true that as you said, as long as you have a way to get rid of the demon beast king, you must be able to make them leaderless and automatically retreat into the deep mountains and forests."

"That's what I thought, too." Xie Qingning looked up at the pitch-black and boundless mountain forest, the trees that fell like waves were getting closer and closer to them, it seemed that they were not far from the location of the beast tide.

If Senior Brother Feiluan was here, he could at least find a way to lure out the Demon Beast King, how good would it be, she couldn't help but sigh.
