Chapter 110: The Slaves
Twenty or so rafts sailed at great speed to the beach to the west of the hilltop, which I had predetermined as the best landing point, and as soon as the enemy set foot there, it meant that we would firmly grasp the initiative on the battlefield.
There was a loud "oh" sound, and there was a "whoosh" sound in the sky again, and the demon spirit man activated a giant crossbow again, but this time I was not worried, Hu Ya and I had already hid behind the boulder to observe the movement of the demon spirit people, and Dan Dan also hid in the tree wall, waiting for my order at any time, as for the fish ball and the Sichuan girl, I placed them in the cave on the gentle slope, not to mention that the spirit people couldn't enter, even Lao Tzu and I didn't dare to step into the cave myself, the huge eyes in the cave were too evil.
The noisy crowd came and went, more and more rafts approached the shore, I counted, thirty-one, a full thirty-one rafts and sampans, more than a hundred people instantly crowded the narrow beachhead, but in the crowd of people I found that in fact, there were not many burly and powerful spirits, at most thirty, and more, they were actually those short and sturdy slaves dressed in white linen, who were being driven together by the spirits with spears and wooden shields.
I rubbed my sour eyes, hid behind the boulder and asked Huya, "You help me see, how do those white-robed people look like the costumes of the demon girl tribe?" ”。
Huya didn't make a sound, she kept staring at the every move of those people, until she seemed to notice something strange, pulled me hard, and said, "It's indeed Ji Ya's person...... Oh, yes, you call her the demon girl Medusa, you see, the person who is crowded in the middle of the white-robed people without clothes, his name is Worm Ji, he is the original brave man of my tribe, strange, is Ji Ya willing to be a slave and cooperate with the demon spirit people again? ”。
In fact, Huya's answer is no longer important to me, and now I am most worried that the demon girl has specially asked the demon to help me in order to eradicate me, and is willing to sell her own interests, this situation is the most difficult for me to accept.
But recalling the expulsion of the white-robed people by the demonstrators on the sea just now, it didn't seem like cooperation, and the two of them looked at the crowded crowd with question marks on their heads, hey, it's a pity that the beachhead is too far away from the top of the mountain, otherwise if you use the giant crossbow arranged on the top of the mountain now, you can at least take away a few strings of people!
"Hide, they're looking for a way," Huya whispered to me, and then hid her body on the boulder for another time, completely covering her own body.
As soon as the white-robed people had completed their assembly, they dispersed into several squads, most of which slowly walked towards the narrow and bare area between the beachhead and the dense forest, while the other two small groups of people walked in the other direction, but they have not seen their whereabouts since.
Twenty or ten steps, watching the hordes of enemies gradually approaching the ambush circle in the bare area, the blood vessels in the back of my neck swelled and pumped blood to my head, and I could even hear my heart pounding in my breath-holding gaze, I crawled to the side of the crossbows, and used the cover of the crossbows to block myself behind them.
Five steps, four, three, two, one, I silently read the time in my heart, suddenly, at the foot of the mountain as if predetermined like a "boom", a moment later there are many painful wailing sounds, just through the bare area of a dozen people in a deep pit into it, the pit I not only laid a sharp stake, but also laid a layer of rattan bark weaving net in the pit, as long as the front of a few people landed, a group of people behind them will be brought into the pit, I saw a few white-robed people who reacted quickly pushed their companions or spirits in front of them, and jumped out of the range of the weaving net on the ground to escape, but more of them still fell into the deep pit with rolling and crawling, and for a while the shouts and screams were mixed.
Seeing that the enemy had suffered this great loss in the first trap, and his heart was happy, but he heard more cries and begs for mercy coming from the foot of the mountain, and as far as he could see, he saw that the white-robed men who had just pushed the demon into the pit had just retreated in the direction of the beach, and they were stabbed into the heart by the fierce demon with a sharp wooden spear, and the terrible cry of pain was only a moment, and more than a dozen corpses fell on the yellow mud ground.
I counted on my fingers, and there were more fucking kills than I could have in the pit! The idea of an alliance between the demon girl and the demon spirit people has been scattered in my mind since then, they are slaves, complete slaves, not allies, nor invited reinforcements, in the eyes of the demon people, the demon girl is just a group of cockroaches that can eat meat, but I don't know, Ji Ya in the mouth of the Sichuan girl and the tiger girl, that is, the demon girl herself, where is she now, dead or alive.
Looking at the gathering of more and more demons in this small bare area between the two mountains, I took out a dagger and cut it to a crossbow rope closest to me, the rope is not thick, it is used to lock the crossbow string, as long as the rope is broken, the crossbow machine will be fired, I have tried to shoot many times before, the crossbow arrow can just hit the open space with the largest number of people now, this is also one of my arrangements, after all, once the trap is successful, the enemy will temporarily retreat a few steps, this is an inevitable thing, and at this time to launch the crossbow machine, obviously twice the result with half the effort.
A hand suddenly reached out and clutched it on the wrist on which I had gone to cut the crossbow rope.
"Shanna, no, there are my people there", the tiger girl quietly crawled to my side and whispered.
I suddenly remembered that on the night when I killed the beast-headed people on the north bank, there were three natives who were almost roasted and eaten by the demon tribe in the same costume as Dandan.
I looked at the tiger girl who seemed to be pleading, then at the fleeting warplane, sighed lightly, and slammed the dagger on the ground.
"You have to understand, Huya, that we can't save them, and when they pass through this bare area, your companions will die in our traps," I whispered, stroking her forehead.
She nodded, but stopped talking, looking more like "let them die, as long as they don't die at their own hands".
It didn't take long for the narrow yellow mud to fall silent, replaced by the sound of spears hitting wooden shields, mixed with the sound of "huh, huh" battle cries, a tall man wearing a beast's head mask and a beast skin around his waist squeezed out of the crowd of the demon clan, shouting something to the slaves, and in an instant the white-robed crowd seemed to explode into a pot, but they were deterred by the spears, and after a while, I saw that half of the white-robed people were placed at the front of the team, The Spirits, on the other hand, walked behind with the other half of the white-robed slaves holding bows and arrows, apparently asking the slaves to make their way for themselves, in case of another trap.
"You go down the hill by the hemp rope, and prepare the trap for the gentle slope with Dandan, and wait for my orders," I said to the tiger girl behind me.
For a long time, there was no movement behind him.
"Hurry up, you...... I'm scared that Hu Ya didn't hear it, and when I turned around and wanted to say it to her again, I found that there was no one behind me, Hu Ya, it was gone!
