Chapter 81: Monsters in the Shadows
A few big men who got up at night walked to a remote place, and before they could untie their pants, they disappeared out of thin air. In the night sky, only a few very short screams remained. Finally, someone was awakened, and they looked at each other, and then at everyone, and they all shrugged, as if they didn't feel anything unusual. They all lay down again and went back to sleep. But they all sat up suddenly, looked at each other, and then gathered together, and one of them said, "What about the night watchman? There is a fat man with a pockmarked face, and I am very impressed, and I don't see anyone." ”
"Yes, there's also a cripple with a ghost-headed knife, and it's gone. ”
"There seems to be a shouting just now, so it can't be that something happened. ”
"Possibly, what can we do?"
These people looked around, it was pitch black and very infiltrating. Especially in the depths of those valleys, it was as if there were a pair of vicious eyes staring at them. In this case, more is better than less.
"I think we should be safer in the crowd. ”
"Oops, that makes sense. ”
There are hundreds of people who came to crusade against the demons this time, and these people are just unknown people, so they are naturally arranged to sleep on the periphery. At this time, these people crept into the middle of the crowd with smug smiles on their faces.
At this moment, in the valleys on both sides, there were several glowing bodies the size of basins, flashing and glowing. The luminaries were in the dark, up and down, as if they were dancing. After a moment, the light flashed, and the luminous bodies were like a bolt of lightning, striking the men. Then, it disappeared into the darkness like lightning.
On the snow, only a string of blood stains were left, and the bloody gas reached everyone's noses.
"It's not good...... Jian Zun woke up first, and Baili Que and Nangong Zhi also got up. They all walked towards the bloodstains, looked at the blood stains on the ground that had not yet congealed, and said, "The one who was just killed is so powerful, so fast." ”
"What about the night watchman, what about the people?" roared the Sword Honorable.
Under this loud roar, everyone woke up one after another, and they were all asking what had happened.
"They're missing...... "Someone attacked us just now." ”
Jian Zun sighed, careless, he shouldn't have just sent these few people to keep vigil. He looked at the bloodstains, which stretched all the way to the depths of the valley, and said, "General Luo, let the Martial Emperor Arrow Team guard the valley on both sides, and the Xuantian Sword Pavilion and Luoshen Palace will also send people to keep vigil." "But for the missing person, he doesn't want to look for it anymore. The enemy is dark and I am clear, and it is easy to fall into the enemy's trap if you look for it at this time.
"What about those who are missing?" someone asked.
Jian Zun didn't answer, but said, "Do as I just instructed." "But I thought in my heart, Bailique asked me to be the leader, and it may not be that they respect me, maybe this is a means for them to shirk their responsibilities. I'm afraid that after this trip to the Demon Clan, my Sword Venerable's reputation will plummet. However, what can I do, for the sake of everyone's safety, I can only do this.
Su Yu was indignant in his heart, you are all well-known characters, you actually don't save you when you see death, you are really a coward. He was about to step forward and reason with Jian Zun and ask him to send someone to save people, but he saw Murong Zhuohua glancing at him and asked him not to speak. He was stunned for a moment, thinking to himself whether it was right to give up on those people? But at this moment, a strange man's voice sounded in his ears: "Little junior brother, don't talk nonsense, don't do too much, just protect yourself, remember, don't be a bird." The sound was so subtle that it seemed to be transmitted from a distance to my ears by a thread. Looking left and right, the person next to him didn't notice the voice at all.
He said in his heart, who is this person, why did he use this line of sound transmission technique to warn me? He called me junior brother, could it be that I am from the Longmen Phantom Mansion? I was secretly surprised in my heart, who is this person!
Sound transmission is a profound secret art, sound can travel like a thread, and it is a one-way transmission, and the words spoken by the speaker are transmitted to the listener's ears along this line. Outsiders can't detect it, and they won't hear it.
Su Yu Xuangong couldn't use the first-line sound transmission technique, and besides, he didn't know who was talking to him, so after listening to that person's words, he had no choice but to nod and retreat.
"Good ......" the voice came into my ears with a gentle smile.
Su Yuxin said, this senior brother is so gentle, he should be a gentleman!
At this time, the Martial Emperor Arrow Team, the Xuantian Sword Pavilion, and the people of the Luoshen Palace were already ready and on full alert.
Although there are these masters who keep vigil, everyone is still not steady, and they dare not fall asleep, afraid that once they close their eyes, they will never see the sun tomorrow again. They all opened their eyes round and looked into the depths of the valley.
Time passed bit by bit, everyone's eyes were tired, and drowsiness gradually rose. Gradually, someone couldn't hold on, sat on the snow, and fell asleep. People are very strange creatures, but if someone does something, many people will follow suit. Since the first person fell asleep, one after another, everyone has also begun to sleep.
Murong Zhuohua stood there with her eyes closed, not knowing if she was asleep. Su Yu also wanted to sleep, but he didn't dare to fall asleep, holding the Canglong Sword, standing there, swaying left and right, dozing off. A smile appeared at the corner of Murong Zhuohua's eyes, and he didn't know why he was laughing. But just this little smile made her beauty ten times more beautiful. It's a pity that no one saw it.
"Smack......
Suddenly, there was a sound in the crowd, like a block of ice falling from the sky, smashing it.
Immediately after, there was a scream: "Ah...... Help me...... Scalded me......"
Then, as soon as the crowd dispersed, there were three people rolling on the ground in the open space, covered in smoke. More than half of their bodies had already peeled off, and the flesh was blurred with green mucus.
Looking at the snow again, there was also a puddle of green liquid, and the snow near this green liquid had melted.
What is this thing, where does it come from? Everybody was curious.
At this moment, another cloud of green light and shadow fell from the sky and smashed on several people. The green light and shadow was a green sphere, and after hitting a person, it spread out in all directions, slimy, like paste. The people who were hit fell to the ground in an instant, screaming again and again. Their bodies were also burned by the green goo, and then festered. A scorching stench spreads.
"This thing is a strong acid and highly poisonous, everyone ......be careful," Jian Zun said.
As soon as the words fell, there was a "whoosh" in the sky...... The sound of "whooshing ......" was dense, like rain. Everyone looked up, and oh my God, they were all green spheres like the same just now, some big, some small, and smashed at them.
"Mom...... Run......"
For a while, everyone was in chaos and began to flee in all directions.
"The Martial Emperor Arrow Team listens to the order, someone in the dark is firing these things, quickly counterattack. Luo Shiyou shouted. After all, he is a general who has experienced a hundred battles, and it is his true color to not be chaotic in the face of danger. And, he had discovered, the orbs looked like they had been fired by someone in the dark with a trebuchet. Therefore, he immediately ordered the Martial Emperor Arrow Team to counterattack.
Jian Zun flew and stood on a high ground, his hands emitting sword qi repeatedly, and he shot towards the dark place. There was a muffled grunt from the shadows, obviously hit by him and injured. Baili Que and Nangong Zhi and other masters also shot beams of light into the shadows, these beams were infused with their profound internal strength, and the things in the shadows naturally couldn't stand it, and there were more and more muffled snorts.
Murong Zhuohua also played the Butterfly Requiem, and a sound wave was like ripples on the surface of the water, spreading into the distance. The sound of the song sounded, and the minds of those people who were holding their heads slowly stabilized, and the spheres that fell from the sky slowed down after encountering sound waves. That way, everyone has more time to hide.
"Roar...... Roar ......"
In the darkness, there were strange roars, listening to the roars, things in the shadows were far away. These green spheres are becoming fewer and fewer, and eventually, everything is calm again. The ground was full of green slime, and more than a dozen people had died under the corrosive scorching heat of this strong acid. There were also more than a dozen people still in pain*, some begging for help, some begging for someone to kill him.
"They seem to be pythons, and the sticky balls they spit out are not only highly acidic, but also highly poisonous, and these people can't survive. Jian Zun said: "Instead of letting them live and suffer, it is better to give them a good time." ”
Everyone may think that what Jian Zun said is right, but no one is willing to do it, this really can't be done. Perhaps, they will eventually fight each other because of the treasures in the mountains, but at this moment, they are still comrades-in-arms with the same hatred. Watching them roll and howl there, these iron-beaten men were also a little sad.
"Kill me...... I beg you to ......"
A man whose body was mostly corroded shouted, perhaps, really, death is the best relief.
Luo Shiyou waved his hand, and the people of the Martial Emperor Arrow Team shot them.
The so-called sorrow of the dead fox and the rabbit, everyone's mood is very heavy at this time, this road, do you have to continue to walk? However, if you don't continue to walk, what else can you do? Is it a retreat? Retreat......
Suddenly, everyone looked at the way they came, like a lost teenager, and they all longed to turn around.
"We're going back, moving forward, it's definitely a dead end......"
Finally, someone shouted out, and soon, everyone started to heckle and said they wanted to go back.
Baili Que and Nangong Zhi both looked at Jian Zun, hoping that he would come up with an idea. Is it to advance or retreat! Jian Zun was also puzzled, did he really want to go back and fight again? That thousand-year-old Xuanbing Mountain Range, perhaps, was not so terrifying!
"Let's go, let's go. ”
When Jian Zun was still hesitating, there were already dozens of people walking back with torches. For a while, everyone was ready to move and wanted to go back. Seeing the scene, Jian Zun had no choice but to say, "Don't get separated, everyone is ready to fight at any time." He motioned to his two sons and followed him back. Baili Que and Nangong Zhi glanced at each other, but neither moved.
