Volume 1 The Fire Mage Who Knows Martial Arts Chapter 44 Let's see when the thing appears
I saw a monkey-shaped pointed face wearing black scale armor popping out of the pool, there are two scaly openings on both sides of the face, it looks like fish gills, it is tall and mighty, with the power when it comes out of the water, it is full of majesty.
The sheep circled around the stake in fright, and the monster stretched out its left arm, which was as thick as a human thigh, and pinched the sheep's neck with one hand, and lifted it up to leave.
Sure enough, it was a water monkey, a piece of mud and stone with a length and width smashed on the monster's head, it was okay after a while, and turned its red eyes in some confusion, it was quite puzzled by the appearance of a mud stone in the flat ground, until its eyes focused on Master Liu a few feet away. And Master Liu has words in his mouth: "Heaven and earth are yellow, the universe is desolate, and the stone technique is taken." ”
The dirt on the ground in front of him cracked a small piece, and a dozen bowl-sized stones buried in the ground broke through the ground and hovered in front of Master Liu. Spells can be instantaneous, chanting, and with the help of power-ups, and generally speaking, the shorter the summoning time, the less powerful it is.
At this time, Long Daxia had already run from the hiding place to the side of the monster, and with a mistake in both palms, he hit the monster. His nickname is the stele opener, and his kung fu is naturally not weak. The monster roared, and a thunderclap sounded in the flat ground, and it swung its other empty claw to meet the palm of the dragon hero.
One person and one monster collided with each other, and the dragon hero snorted, retreating a few steps in succession, and a few streaks of blood oozed from his hard palm. The monster was also uncomfortable, and the sharp nails on the claws were all broken, and he only stood in place, not like the dragon hero, who regressed and dissolved some of his strength.
Master Liu saw the opportunity, and all the stones summoned smashed on the monster's head, and the monster screamed in pain, and several large bags swollen up on its head at a speed visible to the naked eye, and it couldn't help it, turned around and took a few big steps, and wanted to jump into the water. The dragon hero took the opportunity to imprint a palm on its back, and it spurted out a mouthful of blood and still fell into the water with the sheep.
Long Daxia and Master Liu ran to the water's edge, the water had quieted down, and only the ripples proved that the thrilling scene was not an illusion, and the light of the torch shone slightly. Suddenly, the monster's head came out of the water from the shore, and as soon as the mouth opened, a water arrow shot out of the mouth, and Master Liu, who was caught off guard, was hit and fell, its strength in the water seemed to increase a lot, and the power of a mouthful of water was actually not small.
Master Liu got up in embarrassment, and there was nothing wrong with him, but he was knocked down by a mouthful of squirting water, and his face couldn't hang up. The monster's eyes widened, and there seemed to be fire burning in its red eyes, and it roared, and the sound was piercing like scraping the bottom of the pot with a steel knife, full of provocation. Master Liu's staff paused and began to murmur, and there was a wetland on the shore that was muddy and watery, and some stones slowly rose.
The dragon hero was in anticipation of the monster jumping ashore again, and had just fought with the monster, realizing that it was not as strong as himself. As for how much strength it has in the water, Long Daxia is reluctant to try, it seems that the monster is called the water monkey, not to mention whether its strength in the water is strengthened, just by virtue of its habit of living in the water all day long, it must be good at water warfare.
Seeing that no one had gone into the water to fight it, the monster roared again, dived into the water and disappeared before the stone could be dropped.
The first attempt of the monster fighting group failed.
Then the search for the water during the day the next day also failed, because the horses felt that there might be nothing in the water, maybe the missing mother and son slipped and fell into the lake, and the villagers looked at the eyes before saying that there were monsters, and the afterglow of the sunset, the reflection of the lake water, and the angle of the eyewitness's gaze may cause dazzle.
But last night, when Ma Qun saw the appearance of the monster with his own eyes, the whole person was not good, he refused to go into the water no matter what he said, and he had already said goodbye to Ma Liang and left, and he didn't do anything to double the reward.
The only person of the four who is proficient in water sex left the team, and the remaining three had to draw circles and forks by the lake during the day, spitting on the lake, and the task of fishing for corpses was basically no fun.
And there were many people in Majia Village last night who saw the scene of the monster appearing at a slightly distant height, and the village was already boiling, panic, fear and worry, and the family conditions were slightly better and they were ready to move.
Ma Liang was also at a loss, and he couldn't solve this situation by just relying on his tongue, and he also proposed one or two methods that seemed unreliable, but Long Daxia didn't adopt them.
After the discussion of the dragon hero, the same course of action should be taken tonight, the monster did not take everyone into account, and was injured in the water and provoked with his eyes, and before he suffered enough, it was very likely that he would go ashore again.
There are no sheep in the village, and last night's sheep were brought from the town, and it was not easy to find a second sheep to use as bait for a while. Master Liu suggested using a nest of chickens, Long Daxia said to lead a cow, and Ma Liang preferred to catch a few geese.
At this time, Shi Keqi stood up and said, "Why don't you use me as bait, anyway, I have contributed the least so far." "The afternoon sun was abundant, shining on the young man's confident face, adding a bit of youthful atmosphere.
Ma Liang's brows furrowed, not that he was afraid that he would die here and would not be able to explain. The people of the Northern Dynasties were free to travel and walk, and they only needed to carry a document issued by the government to prove their identity, so that they could invest in the shop for workmanship inspection, etc., without the need for a certificate such as a road guide.
Ma Liang read Shi Keqi's certificate and knew that he was from a very remote village in Xiangzhou, and even if he died, he would have a copy of the risk application document that he signed when he paid the deposit, which was nothing more than a matter of burning and burying silver. But to see if it's worth spending a human life, if you can't get rid of the demon, but take a life, it's better to use livestock.
"Don't blame anyone else for your death. Long Daxia said angrily.
"I've thought about it, livestock need to be tied up and fixed inconveniently, if it's a human, you can freely retreat to lure the monster away from the water, the more you retreat, the farther away it is, is it that the monster's strength will gradually weaken, and its breathing out of the water is a problem, and I don't know how long it can leave the water, it should be that the longer it is out of the water, the more beneficial it is for us. ”
Ma Liang was thoughtful. Long Daxia seemed to be reasonable when he heard what Shi Keqi said, if he let the monster go far enough from the shore last night, it was really possible to leave it, but he sang the opposite tune, and at this time, it was not good to praise it immediately, and poked Master Liu next to him with his finger, and his movements were very hidden.
Master Liu comprehended, coughed lightly and said: "You volunteered to be bait, the courage of the young man is very good, it is worth commendating, well, or it will be decided, you don't have to worry about safety, I and Long Daxia will ensure your safety." ”
With the tone set by Master Liu, Long Daxia just put down his face, patted the two pieces of meat on his chest, and said with a rare smile on his face that safety is absolutely no problem, this hero's skills dare not say how many people in the world, but how many people in the world have to shout Long Daxia when they see me, it is a piece of cake to protect your hairy boy's life. "I have a problem, if you can't tether your livestock for a long distance, you don't need people to be close to the water as bait. Ma Liang was a little unbearable, and seemed to think that the probability of Shi Keqi's death was quite high, so he raised this question.
"The place where the monster appeared twice is very close to the water, and it should be useless to infer that the bait is far away from this for the time being, and there are ways to make the livestock go backwards, but there will be accidents, such as rushing forward when frightened, or spinning in place like a stupid sheep last night, etc., Lin Lin is always not as flexible as people, how to say that I am also a mage, it is always no problem to run away if I can't beat it, and you have to have some confidence in me. Shi Keqi laughed after speaking.
Ma Liang and the others also smiled knowingly, whether Shi Keqi is a mage or not, no one has seen him summon spells yet, most mages need a staff to assist, and some don't need it, and most of them don't need it is a very powerful kind.
Shi Keqi has no magic staff, and he is too young, he didn't contribute to fighting monsters last night, and the only time he contributed was to grab the rope and the boulder tug-of-war in the pool, and those who believe in him have no bottom in their hearts, let alone those who don't believe.
But believe it or not, you have to find a way to get rid of this monster, and after a short discussion, Ma Liang finally agreed to Shi Keqi's method of bait.
At night, it was dark and moonless, and the stars were twinkling. Shi Keqi stood about six meters from the water's edge, the monster didn't seem to jump out of the water so far yesterday, and it was no longer necessary, his life mattered.
A torch is inserted on the ground next to him every few meters, a total of 6, mainly for convenient lighting, the monster's night vision ability must be very good, and when it will fight, it will not be able to eat the loss of insufficient light, Long Liu and the two of them crouched behind the stones not far away.
The butter-coated torches were particularly resistant to burning, and when they were only burned a third of the way, there were many bubbles coming out of the water by the pool, and they were cooing and not loud.
"Foodies are not afraid of death, they are not foodies if they are afraid of death" Shi Keqi silently recited a sentence, pulled his legs and fled, and when he felt that something was wrong, the people who did not run were either bold or stupid, and the people who were not good at their abilities and insisted on going to dangerous places were fools among fools------ fools and his father.
With a "whoosh" sound, something sprang out of the water, and it was the water monkey.
Shi Keqi pretended to be panicked and fled, and the water monkey bared his teeth and chased after him, and if he let the prey escape too far from the water's edge, it would be useless. It roared in awe, and at the same time quickly swung its claws to grab someone, almost catching Scoke.
One person, one monster, one ran and one chase, and in just a few breaths, he had run a distance of more than 20 meters. The water monkey hesitated a little, slowed down unconsciously, and was a little far away from the water, whether to give up the prey and return to the water.
Just as it turned around this thought, two people turned out from behind a big rock to intercept its retreat, it heard the movement and turned its head to look, and suddenly its eyes were blood-red, as the so-called enemy road is narrow, the enemy is very red when they meet, but it is the two Long Liu who have injured it.
The two sides immediately fought fiercely together, mainly against the dragon hero and the water monkey. Master Liu is not good at close combat, sweeping the formation on the side, and from time to time he throws a few large pieces of earth and stones.
Shi Keqi hid behind the stone and stretched out his head and shouted: "Come on, the dragon hero is mighty, beat the water demon into a water dog." Oh no, it's on the shore, then it's a mourning dog. ”
The dragon hero dealt with it with all his heart, and the water monkey probably didn't understand, and the two fought together quickly and quickly, eager to tear each other to pieces.
I don't know if it's the reason for being farther away from the water, the water monkey's strength is weaker than last time, and the situation is getting worse and worse, it was slapped three times by Long Daxia, rolled on the ground a few times, and was hit by Master Liu with a stone on its head.
