Chapter 238: Caught in a Siege
Fortunately, Wei Feng's uncle and nephew were just trying to escape for their lives, and they didn't aim to kill people when they attacked, but after all the people in front of them were knocked down, they walked away, so after they successfully escaped, everyone was safe and sound, and the cave immediately became a chaotic situation.
Xu Chen finally ran out of the mine, and he didn't have time to catch his breath, so he first put down the miner on his back who was seriously injured by the rubble, but saw that the injured person had already passed out.
Xu Chen hurriedly raised his head to find someone to help, but was surprised to find that although the ground was no longer trembling now, the situation outside was even more chaotic than in the cave.
Everywhere the eye looked, there were all unkempt miners, and the domineering and arrogant demon dogs in the past were now not seen.
"Foreman, leave this brother alone, hurry up and think of running for your life!" Someone suddenly stepped forward and said to Xu Chen.
Xu Chen opened his eyes and found that the person who spoke was the middle-aged man with the No. 37 bronze medal on his waist, he suddenly became angry, and said sharply: "Are you still talking about human words? This injured person is a person from your prison law mountain, are you also going to follow the example of a demon dog and leave your fellow disciples?"
The middle-aged man immediately blushed and said, "Do you think I'm that ruthless person, if we don't find a way to escape now, when the earthquake breaks out, we'll all die here!"
Hearing that what was said was so serious, Xu Chen's tone slowed down and asked, "We have escaped from the cave, and there will be no danger to our lives for the time being, why do you say this?"
"Look over there!" the middle-aged man pointed forward.
Only then did Xu Chen realize that except for the two of them and the wounded in front of him, everyone else was surging in the direction pointed by the middle-aged man.
At the same time, he heard a dull crash coming from that place, Xu Chen couldn't help but be a little surprised, and hurriedly stood up and looked at the place where the muffled sound came from.
It doesn't matter if you don't look at it, but this look makes Xu Chen also frightened.
The middle-aged man pointed to the two stone doors about a few feet high, which were tightly closed at the moment, and the miners who had escaped from the cave gathered around the doors, smashing the huge stone doors with their digging tools, hoping to smash it open or make a gap.
The middle-aged man sighed: "Wei Feng, the dog thief, took all the demon dogs out while I was waiting and didn't notice, and then locked the stone door, how poisonous his intentions are!"
Xu Chen suddenly realized the seriousness of the problem, although they ran out of the mine, but now they are still in the huge crypt under the mountain peak, and these two stone doors are the only passage to the outside world, Wei Feng sealed it, obviously trying to trap everyone inside, when the earthquake broke out!
Xu Chen gritted his teeth and asked in a deep voice, "Except for the stone gate, is there no other way to get out?"
"No!" The middle-aged man shook his head and sighed, and then said, "Damn, if only I still had cultivation, otherwise I would have smashed a big hole in this stone gate." ”
This sentence immediately reminded Xu Chen, and he immediately said to the middle-aged man: "This wounded person will be handed over to you to take care of, I will go and destroy the stone gate now and take everyone out!"
"Foreman, do you really have a way?" Before the words fell, Xu Chen had already stood up and flew quickly towards the place where the stone gate was!
The middle-aged man suddenly exclaimed in surprise: "Foreman, it turns out that your cultivation has not been wasted!"
The others also saw Xu Chen's chic figure flying in the sky at this moment, and everyone was overjoyed, knowing that it was the savior who came, and before Xu Chen fell into shape, they consciously made way for him in front of the door.
Seeing everyone's eager gaze, Xu Chen did not hesitate at all, he shouted, and suddenly a surging water aura surged out from his body and spread all around, and the temperature in the crypt dropped suddenly.
Immediately, there were people around who couldn't bear the sudden drop in temperature, and couldn't help but sneeze, but the desire to survive in his eyes became more and more intense as the temperature dropped!
Xu Chen slammed his foot on the ground, and suddenly several cracks spread out from under his feet, and in the end, countless echoes full of hope sounded in the depths of the huge crypt.
In the surprised gaze of everyone, Xu Chen jumped above everyone's heads like lightning with the help of the power of catapult.
The next moment, he swung out his hands suddenly, and a huge ice hammer immediately condensed and formed in the air, smashing into the closed stone door!
The blow hit the gap between the two doors, and then there was a continuous click!
"Wow!" Someone suddenly exclaimed, and everyone was surprised to see that in the splattered ice chips in the sky, cracks appeared on the surface of the two huge stone doors!
And at this moment, another ice hammer in Xu Chen's hand smashed down, and the crack immediately expanded its scope, gradually spreading to all sides, and finally burst open.
Then there was an earth-shattering bang, and the two stone doors shook a few times before they suddenly collapsed, and fresh air immediately poured in, indicating that freedom was beckoning to them outside!
"We're saved!", "Get out of here!", ......
There were sounds of joy everywhere, mixed with some thanks to Xu Chen, and before the dust dissipated, everyone was already rushing outside.
Seeing that he had successfully extricated himself from the predicament, Xu Chen let out a long breath, hurriedly returned to the wounded, and walked towards the door with the middle-aged man.
After only a few steps forward, the screams continued to sound, and the miners who had run out turned around and ran back.
"What's going on?" Xu Chen asked loudly.
He was answered by a dense "whoosh" sound, and countless sharp arrows shot in like flying locusts, and everyone fled, using the rocks in the cave as shelters to avoid the sudden attack of the rain of arrows.
As soon as Xu Chen hid in his position, he heard someone screaming in pain next to him, turned his head to look, and found that it was a young miner next to him who had been hit by an arrow in the knee.
But the man said weakly: "Young man...... The arrows are poisonous!" and he fell limply.
Xu Chen was shocked, and hurriedly stepped forward to help him up, but found that after this person spurted out a mouthful of black blood, his head tilted and died.
It didn't take much time, and the other miners who were hit by the arrows died one after another in front of everyone, and the living were angry but helpless.
When the middle-aged man saw such a tragic scene, he couldn't help but say with hatred: "The demon dog is so vicious, they completely want to kill us!"
Hearing this, Xu Chen could no longer control the anger in his heart, and he said loudly: "Since this is the case, we will fight with them!"
"Yes, these thieves have harmed us so badly! I can't gamble with my life, I don't believe that no one can escape!"
"Which brother can return to the Central Plains, he must remember to avenge our death!"
Several miners who were as angry as Xu Chen replied loudly, and it was clear that they were brave and fearless people.
Just when the crowd was excited, a weak voice came out: "But we don't have cultivation now, what are we going to do to fight the demon dog?"
This sentence was like a basin of cold water that woke everyone up, and those miners who were still high-spirited before were also deflated at the moment and stopped talking, but they all set their eyes on Xu Chen.
Xu Chen knew that these people pinned their hopes on themselves, and if they also confessed, they could only wait for the fate of being slaughtered by the demon dog.
He thought for a while, and then said to everyone: "Although I haven't been here for a long time, I have found out some information in the past few days. Wei Feng, the dog thief, was ordered by the dead demon lord to force everyone to dig the dark iron ore here. But do you know what the demon dog is doing with these dark iron ores?"
As soon as the words fell, someone immediately answered: "Do you still need to ask? The demon dog is casting weapons!"
"That's right, after the weapons were cast, Lin Yunsheng's female demon immediately assembled these weapons into the army and used them to slaughter my fellow protossmen!"
"Of course we all know the despicable deeds done by the demon dog, if it weren't for everyone's cultivation, this broken island would have been destroyed a long time ago, which is the turn of that dog thief surnamed Wei to bully me!"
Xu Chen was waiting for this sentence, he nodded hurriedly and said: "What Brother Tai said is extremely true, although the enemy is outnumbered at the moment, as long as we unite as one and fight to the death with this group of demon dogs outside, someone will always be able to seize the boat and escape back to the Central Plains, and tell any god king the news that Lingguang Island is a demon arsenal, and then my god clan will definitely send troops to destroy this place and avenge the dead compatriots!"
The middle-aged man nodded frequently as he listened, and he said in response: "Everyone, we are all bloody men, and we have to die as we deserve, and being greedy for life and afraid of death is the work of the devil dog, so everyone will listen to the foreman and rush out to fight with them!"
As soon as his words fell, another smart person continued: "You don't need to be afraid of the enemy like a tiger, I have secretly observed, most of the demon soldiers are garbage in the Yuanying Realm, as long as we unite the strength of a few people to deal with one, we can definitely send him back to the west!"
Xu Chen was afraid that his morale would be low again, so he hurriedly said: "You haven't cultivated, it's still a little difficult to deal with the demon dog, wait until I rush out first to stabilize the position, everyone will see the opportunity to act again, and kill him by surprise!"
"Okay!", "Just do it!", "Little brother, be careful, everyone will count on you." ”......
The miners nodded in agreement with Xu Chen's plan, and waited for him to charge first.
But what Xu Chen didn't expect was that at this time, someone suddenly raised an objection, and there was a scolding in his words!
"Don't be fooled, this bastard is in the same league as the demons, he wants to trick us into going out and sending us to death!"
This person has not spoken, he has been secretly observing Xu Chen for a long time, and now he saw Xu Chen instigating everyone to go out to send them to death, so he walked out of the crowd with his head held high, pointed at Xu Chen and scolded: "Traitor, how many people do you want to kill before you give up!"
Hearing that someone had framed him, Xu Chen was immediately furious, and he was about to reprimand this guy for a few words, but when the words came to his mouth, he swallowed them back.
At the same time, his face became extremely ugly.
