Chapter 178: The Scourge of the Gu Eagle
If it hadn't been for an accident, I would never have struck this gong and drum early in the morning. Our first reaction was that the barbarians were coming. At this time, don't say that you are uncomfortable, even if you break your leg and crawl, you have to climb out to meet the enemy. It's strange to say, after sleeping all night, I don't want to be so uncomfortable yesterday afternoon, yesterday afternoon was like confinement, and this morning it seems that my aunt came to have a stomachache. After taking a few sips of a glass of water on the table, he went out with his tools and long knife.
Now my system, 100 meters of speed rushed to the city wall. It is said that it is a city wall, in fact, it is made of four or five meters high stones, although it is not high, but although the sparrows are small, they have all kinds of organs, what lookout holes, and guns are all available. By the time we arrived, there were already many people on the walls. All of them are vigilant against the only mountain road in the distance, and this mountain road, as long as it is guarded, even thousands of troops and horses will not be able to come up. It can really be said that it is a terrain that is difficult to open.
But when we waited for a long time, when the daylily we were waiting for was a little cold, we didn't see half a figure on this mountain road. I finally found Tang Pu in the crowd and asked him, "Brother Tang, what's going on, people?" Downp looked at me with a confused look and said, "What person?" I was stunned and thought, "Is it a drill?" "No, if it was a drill, it wouldn't have been without notifying us in advance, so there was no need to bring us in, after all, we were outsiders, and we were guests, so we definitely didn't know how to be polite. Taking a step back, Tang Pu doesn't know what our body is like, and he will definitely not toss us like this.
I asked again, "Those barbarians, wasn't the noise of gongs and drums just now a wake-up call?" Tang Pu was also stunned, and then said with a smile: "The barbarians didn't come, they came with something else, didn't you hear the cry of a child?" "Why is this a headless and unfinished? I have heard the cry of a child for a long time, and the noise of gongs and drums is that an ignorant child can be frightened, and it is normal to cry.
Tump seemed to see the doubts in my heart, and immediately explained: "Listen, is there any difference in the cry of this little child? "I listened carefully this time, and it was no different, I think children cry the same way, is there any frequency? I shook my head and said, "It's no different." Tang Pu shook the spear in his hand and said, "This is not a child's cry at all, this is a Gu Eagle." ”
Hearing the name of this Gu Eagle, I just gasped. I thought to myself, "Why is this thing here?" "It's disgusting. This Gu carving is a kind of monster described in the "Classic of Mountains and Seas". It is said that the Gu eagle lives by the water, and its form is like an eagle, but it has horns and a voice like a child, but this thing eats people. It is not clear what it looks like, some say that Gu carving, leopard body, carved mouth, single horn, giant mouth can swallow one person at a time. It originally lived in Razor, but as time evolved, it has long since left the water and fled to the wasteland, becoming the most terrifying monster.
In short, it's all a legend, and no one has really seen a Gu carving. Today, maybe I'll be able to see it. I am still conflicted in my heart, I hope to see it, and I hope to see it. I want to see it because I'm curious, and I don't want to see it because I'm afraid of trouble. After all, this thing is not easy to deal with, and you know that it is not easy to mess with just by listening to the name. I asked Tang Pu, "Has this Gu Eagle ever been to the village before?" ”
Tang Pu nodded cautiously, with sadness in his eyes. It is estimated that this Gu Eagle has also eaten the people in the village, otherwise he would not be treated so solemnly, as if he was facing a great enemy. I want to see what this legendary Gu carving looks like. After about a few minutes, the child's crying stopped abruptly, and on the main road in front of the village, a beast came unhurriedly. When I saw this beast, I felt that I was underestimating my imagination.
This beast that came over should be a Gu carving. This Gu statue eagle generally arches its neck, falls on all fours, has no wings, it should not be said that it has no wings, it still has wings on its two ribs, but this wing is too small, compared with its body that is one meter five high and two meters long, the wings are negligible. The head of this legendary Gu Eagle is a bit like a jackal, but its mouth is a bit of a heavenly feeling, and it would be a big mistake to laugh at it because of it, because its jaw teeth are completely exposed, and the roots are as thick as a thumb.
The eyes are bright and bright, and there is a cunning in the brown pupils that seems to be only human. And on this Gu eagle's jackal-like forehead, there is a deer antler. Yes, one, not a pair. The horn is bent outward, how awkward to look. With the exception of its neck, its entire body is streamlined, like a cheetah, but its limbs are too thin, and its sharp claws tell us that if we were to despise its limbs, the claws on its limbs would unceremoniously leave marks on us. It is estimated that if this claw goes down, it will either be dead or injured.
The most peculiar thing is its tail, a bit towards the tail of a rabbit, which is very short. I don't know if it's a broken tail, or if it's born like this, it looks very awkward. How do you look at the four dislikes, so that you can still eat one person in one bite? I didn't believe it, but I was convinced that it could bite people to death.
This guy swaggered on the only mountain road into the village, looking fearless, as if he had arrived in the back garden of his house. It seems that this guy is not the first time to be here, he has definitely tasted the sweetness here, and he also thinks that the people here are not a threat to him, otherwise he would not be like this. Like this kind of beast, in fact, a certain amount of wisdom has been born, and it is estimated that I don't know the truth of this time and that time, let alone the truth of being impressed by the three times. Of course, there are also many people among human beings who want to be Gu Eagle, and they have to eat on it when they suffer losses.
Tang Pu gritted his teeth and said: "This beast has already eaten a lot of people in our village, and since he is here today, he is still so rampant. I smiled and said, "Then you can't do anything about it?" Tump sighed and said, "This beast is very clever and very agile, and it has already run away before the knife has slashed." ”
Dorjee ran to my side and asked eagerly, "Big brother, what is that thing?" Big Tiger? I said angrily, "Yes, mutated tiger." Dorjee smiled and said, "He's a powerful master, right?" Otherwise, there wouldn't be so many people here. I didn't speak, just stared at this Gu Eagle. According to our current physical state, there is no way to fight with it at all, so we can only outwit it.
Dorjee muttered quietly, if only there were guns now. That's what I actually thought in my heart, if I had a shotgun now, I would definitely be able to do this thing easily. At this time, this Gu Eagle swaggered towards us, and this side was already in full battle, but what made me curious was that since these remnants of the Tang Dynasty were all spears, none of them used bows and arrows. Instead, he put all the bows and arrows aside.
I asked Tang Pu, "Brother Tang, why don't you use bows and arrows?" Tump sighed and said, "This beast is so fast that even a bow and arrow can't hurt him for half a point." I was slightly shocked, faster than a bow and arrow? So how to deal with it? That person to resist? At this moment, Ao Xiang walked up to me and said, "This Gu Eagle is not easy to deal with, it seems that we are going to meet an idea today." "I was very surprised that Ao Xiang could actually recognize this thing as a Gu Eagle, and since he also said so, my heart was even colder. He shook the knife in his hand and said, "Do you have any countermeasures?" Ao Xiang shook his head and said, "I'll try it first." ”
After Ao Xiang finished speaking, he turned into a bat and walked towards the Gu carving. With his hand, he was also stunned by the remnants of the Tang Dynasty on the city wall. said that it was too late, it was fast, Ao Xiang was not slow, but the Gu Eagle was faster, Ao Xiang had not yet reached his side, it had already dodged, and its movements were extremely fast. I was so shocked that I didn't even see how it moved. I'll it, how do you fight this? Even if you have great ability, if you can't beat this Gu Eagle, it's useless.
Ao Xiang was already chasing the Gu Eagle with bats all over the sky, and the Gu Eagle was dodging left and right on that road, hiding in a place where there were few bats. Ao Xiang had no choice, so he changed his strategy and scattered the bats even more. Who knew that Ao Xiang was like this, since the Gu Eagle relied on its speed, it broke the bats that Ao Xiang turned into one by one. If this continues, how many bats will not be enough to consume like this.
I yelled, "Come back." This will not work. Ao Xiang suddenly raised his position, and then stepped back. When he stood beside me again, his face was a little pale, and he looked uncomfortable holding his chest. I immediately asked, "Are you alright?" Ao Xiang nodded and said, "This beast is too fast, I can't keep up with his speed at all." Dorjee grinned and said, "Damn, why is this thing so fast?" Am I dazzled? ”
This Gu Eagle definitely already has a lot of wisdom, otherwise it wouldn't be like this. There will be a strategy to break it one by one.,This TM can't be called a beast anymore.,People who shouldn't be able to speak.。 After Ao Xiang came back, since this Gu Eagle was lying in the middle of the road, he licked his paws and looked at us with his head sideways, his eyes full of provocation. My heart was half cold again, and the idea that this thing had wisdom became more ingrained. Against such an opponent, force cannot solve it, but can only outwit it.
But how to outwit it? We have nothing but a little geographical advantage and a human advantage, and I have very few resources to use. So, I began to think back to the movies or TV series I had watched, and now I am facing a beast whose wisdom is not under man. And at this time, the Gu Eagle moved, without warning.
It's coming towards us. The speed was staggering, and in the blink of an eye, it had reached the bottom of the city wall, and the five-meter-high city wall seemed to him to be walking on the ground, and he stood on the top of the city wall in two jumps. The people on the city wall blew up now, this Gu eagle seemed to appreciate such a scene, it was not in a hurry to bite, let alone eat people, but slammed back and forth.
This city wall is not a big road in the first place, and if it does this, the people on the city wall will be unlucky. Many of them were hit under the city wall, five meters high, not high, but if you fall, you will basically lose your combat effectiveness. As soon as I saw this situation, I didn't even think about whether I could beat this Gu Eagle, so I rushed up with my knife.
I don't know if this Gu Eagle is deliberately avoiding Ao Xiang, because Ao Xiang is standing next to me, the place where it attacked is far away from us, and it is relatively narrow on the city wall. We're even more inaccessible. Ao Xiang has turned into a bat again to disturb, Dorjee and I just can't squeeze through, the figure on the city wall is moving, seeing the Gu Eagle attacking people like crazy, we just can't help it, this feeling of powerlessness makes me very helpless.
The Gu Eagle also seemed to sense Ao Xiang's coming, and he was not in love, so he picked up a person and jumped off the city wall and ran along the road. Looking at the back of the Gu carving, my heart was extremely heavy. Looking at the mess on the city walls, I really didn't know how to face the Downp. Guilty!
Fortunately, the Gu Eagle did not sneak into the village, and if it did, the consequences would be even more unimaginable. Looking at the people who were wailing and waiting for treatment after falling off the city wall, thinking about the rampant Gu carving just now, and thinking about the way those spears fell on it without pain or itching, I felt a chill in my heart. This is the second time I've felt that powerlessness, especially powerlessness. The first time was when he faced Hu Yin in the Qinling Mountains, and the second time was when he faced this Gu Eagle.
Legendary monsters are legendary monsters. It's really in response to that sentence, one side of the water and soil raises one side of the people, this so-called Emei Cave Heaven, I really didn't expect that there would be a monster like Gu Eagle, this is also the first time I really have close contact with the natives here, I didn't expect it to be so powerful, so fast.
Dorjee shook me in a daze and said, "Big brother, what should I do." "For a long time, I really didn't know how to answer Dorjee's question, and the exhaustion in my body seemed to come up again, and this time I seemed to be out of breath. It's uncomfortable on the body, and it's even more uncomfortable in the heart, but what method to use, we must get rid of this Gu carving scourge. I sighed and said, "Let's go, we can't help here, go back and think about what to do with that beast." ”
On the way back, thousands of ways appeared in my mind, all of which I ruled out one by one, some were too mentally retarded, afraid that the Gu Eagle would not be fooled, and some were not equipped by themselves and could not be conjured by themselves, so they could only be invalidated. To deal with such a monster with good speed, you can only rely on speed to win, but even our fastest Ao Xiang here is not an opponent, what way can you speed up?
