Chapter 7: The Scarecrow

Several other people also knew what Hong Xiu said, and the ferocity of the nail rake cat was indeed seen in their eyes. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info

Once, when they were walking through a woodland, they saw a nail rake cat wave his hand and pull the head of a timberwolf the size of a calf off alive, and the bloody scene was also a little shocking for them who had been trained to prepare for reincarnation, and if they had encountered the wolf, it could be said that at least a few people would have to die to kill it.

So they all stopped talking nonsense, but quickly ate the food in their hands, and tried to walk some more distance before dark.

After eating the food, Hong Xiu and the others packed up their equipment and started on the road, in fact, there was nothing to pack, just some food and water and the like, and each of them bought an ebony sword in the weapon store to defend themselves, although this weapon is not as sharp and durable as the iron sword, it is also good, and the most important thing is that it is cheap.

With the weapons in their hands, Hong Xiu and the others slowly walked in the silent wilderness below, which was simply a barrenness, except for stones and weeds, there was nothing left.

As long as they heard the sound of a cat meowing in the distance, Hong Xiu and they would stay away, this creature was not something they could deal with now.

But luckily, these monsters have their own territory, and they are almost inviolable against each other, so if you are careful, it is possible to avoid them.

The sun's rays were getting dimmer and dimmer, and it had reached the stage of dusk, Hong Xiu looked up at the sky, and then turned back and said:

"Walk around for a while, and by the way, find out if there is a suitable place to camp tonight."

Lin Yang wiped the sweat from his head, and when he heard Hong Xiu's words, he and a few others began to look around while hurrying around, looking for a suitable camp.

Suddenly, Ding Xiujie in the team shouted at Hong Xiu:

"Brother Hong, look, there's a scarecrow there"

Hong Xiu turned his head sharply when he heard this, and looked in the direction of Ding Xiujie's finger, and sure enough, there was a scarecrow with a somewhat tattered straw hat, standing under a dead tree more than a hundred meters away from them.

When Hong Xiu saw it, he waved his hand back, asking Lin Yang and them not to move, and then began to observe carefully, but the sky was already a little dark, and the scene in the distance was also a little blurry.

However, after waiting for a while, Hong Xiu saw that this scarecrow was still motionless, like a real scarecrow, but he knew that this kind of thing was impossible.

It was getting darker and darker, and Hong Xiu decided that he couldn't wait, otherwise he didn't know what other monsters would appear, at least for now, the scarecrow didn't seem to be alarmed.

Thinking of this, Hong Xiu gestured to Lin Yang and the others, then clenched the ebony sword in his hand, tried not to make a sound, and slowly began to walk towards the other road indicated on the map.

But just as they turned around, a grinding sound like a straw suddenly reached their ears.

Hong Xiu turned his head and looked, it was broken! I saw that the scarecrow was already less than a hundred meters away from them, and the big mouth full of straw also opened a slight gap, as if laughing at the useless work they had done.

Hong Xiu's cold sweat came out on the top of his head, it was not a pleasant thing to be targeted by this kind of monster, he could only turn his brain as much as possible to think, was there any way to avoid this crisis.

But after thinking about it for a long time, they couldn't come up with any good idea, they couldn't stand here all night, although the scarecrow was still motionless in their sight.

At this time, Pan Gan, who was behind Hong Xiu, slowly took two steps forward, came to Hong Xiu, and said softly:

"Hongzi, it looks like this thing is targeting us."

You Pingxuan gritted her teeth and stepped forward and said:

"If you can't do it, fight with it!"

Ding Xiujie looked around at this time and said:

"Brother Hong, can't we lead it to the territory of other monsters and let them kill each other, didn't you say that monsters have a strong sense of territory."

Hearing Ding Xiujie's words, before Hong Xiu could speak, Lin Yang said:

"The monsters have a strong sense of territory, but if they join us, maybe they will join forces to solve us first and then talk about it, so we have to deal with this scarecrow first."

Hong Xiu looked back at the resolute faces of several people, and then took a deep breath:

"I thought that with the map, we would be able to avoid most of the monsters, but I didn't expect to encounter such an obstacle after just half the way."

After a pause, he said:

"Okay, let's go down this road first, the map records that there is a river near here, where there are no other monsters' territory, don't worry about the movement is too big and attract other things, maybe the five of us still have a fight, we should have prepared more fire oil when we came out."

Without further ado, after Hong Xiu and the others set their goals, they began to take steps to speed up, and the scarecrow kept hanging behind them, and they didn't know whether they wanted to consume their physical strength or play with them, anyway, they had no tendency to attack.

This also made Hong Xiu and them more relieved to hurry up, but the vigilance in their hearts was not less at all, after all, if you want to say that this scarecrow is a vegetarian, then no one among these people believes it, so they can only guess in their hearts that there may be some conspiracy in this thing, but on the other hand, they don't believe that such a low-level monster in the legendary world also has the same IQ as humans.

Therefore, Hong Xiu and their hearts are also extremely entangled, if this scarecrow's IQ is very high, then they may be extremely dangerous this time.

Putting aside the thoughts in their hearts for the time being, Hong Xiu and each of them had a good physical fitness, and they ran for nearly 20 minutes, until they faintly heard the sound of the river in their ears, and they stopped.

Hong Xiu gasped slightly, listened to the clear sound of running water in his ears, and said to Lin Yang beside him:

"Let's take a break to recuperate, this is already a public area."

After hearing this, Lin Yang said:

"Okay, Brother Hong"

But at this time, Pan Gan and You Pingxuan hurriedly ran over and said to Hong Xiu:

"Hongzi, Brother Hong, no, that scarecrow is gone!"

A stirring spirit of Hong Xiumeng:

"What? It's gone? ”

I immediately looked up and searched around, and sure enough, I saw only some low bushes everywhere, and there were any scarecrows there.

"Didn't I let you watch, how did it disappear?"

Hong Xiu asked Pan Gan after reading it.

Pan Gan also lowered his head a little ashamed and said:

"I don't know, after stopping just now, Sister Ping and I saw that thing standing not far from us, but who would have thought that it would disappear in the blink of an eye."

Hong Xiu saw Pan Gan and You Pingxuan's ashamed looks, and he didn't know what to say, now it's okay, let this thing turn from light to dark, looked up at the somewhat dim sky, Hong Xiu could only say to them:

"Alright, I don't know where to hide that thing now, we have to be careful, and it's going to get dark soon, we ......"

"Ahh

Before Hong Xiu finished speaking, he heard a terrible scream not far away.
