Chapter 7: A Bad Situation
The men weren't dead, their chests were still rising and falling slightly, as if they were asleep.
But a steady stream of vitality is flowing out of them, slowly pouring into the great array, and if this continues, at most tomorrow morning, this group of people will be completely dead.
Seeing the situation outside the big array, the 'woman's face suddenly turned cold, and she turned her gaze to Li Yao'er's anxious tone.
"Didn't I tell you to tell the people in your village not to go up the mountain for the next two days, why are there so many people outside?"
Moreover, it is not good for them to go up the mountain at any time, but they want to run into the big array in the night! Isn't this looking for death?
As soon as Li Yao'er heard the words of the 'woman', she guessed that it was her father and mother who brought the people from the village to Jiushiao to find her.
In fact, she had already thought of this during the day, but she was silenced, and the 'woman' said that the big snake and her couldn't get out, and Li Yao'er would not be in danger if they were locked up in the big array.
But looking at the performance of the 'woman' now, it seems that things are not as she thinks.
Although Li Yao'er couldn't see the outside situation, she began to become anxious because of the attitude of the 'woman'.
Legend has it that the demon's ability has always been unpredictable, could it be that although this snake demon can't get out, it has the means to hurt people outside?
Thinking of this, Li Yao'er couldn't care about the previous embarrassment, she immediately turned around and grabbed the 'woman's arm', looked at the 'woman' with pleading eyes, and opened her mouth to ask silently.
"How is my family, are they in danger? I beg you to save my family. ”
The 'woman' looked at the little girl tugging at her sleeve with a complicated expression, and probably guessed the ins and outs of the matter.
Those people are here to find the little girl, she is missing in Jiushiao, and those people will linger in Jiushiao, and they will not return until nightfall!
It was she who was careless, forgetting that this era is no longer her era, there will be no ghosts and demons at this time, and people at this time do not have the cognition that they must not enter the mountains and forests at night.
The Jiupin Lotus Array is an ancient strange array with many changes such as life, killing, sleeping, illusion, and rest, and before the 'woman' starts the trapped formation, the big array has maintained a state of rest and will not interact with the outside world.
In addition to the truce, other formations, such as the trapped formation activated by the 'woman', can be nourished by the moon at night, and absorb spiritual energy from the heavens and the earth to maintain the operation of the large array.
If in the Fa-rectification era when spiritual energy is abundant, such changes are the beauty of the Great Array.
However, in the current era of the end of the law, the spiritual energy between heaven and earth is thin, and the large array has nowhere to absorb the spiritual energy, so it will retreat to absorbing the vitality of the creatures around the large array.
Living beings, especially the vitality contained in human beings, have much in common with the aura of heaven and earth, and this is the reason why there are many evil cultivators and demons in the Fa-rectification era who can improve their cultivation through killing.
It is precisely for this reason that the 'woman' instructed Li Yao'er to inform the villagers not to enter the mountain for two days, in order to prevent the current situation.
Who knows what to be afraid of, her words not only did not work, but had the opposite effect.
In the past, it was a col that few people visited during the day, but tonight not only people came, but so many!
After all, vitality and aura are different, the 'woman' has its own cultivation method and cannot improve spiritual power through vitality, but the snake demon in front of her is different.
It was born in the era of the end of the law and became a demon by chance, but it is a chaotic fool who does not know how to cultivate, and will only absorb everything it can absorb according to instinct like a large array, and the aura and vitality are all cultivation holy products for it.
If there are few people, it doesn't matter if the vitality is only enough for the large array to operate, and now that there are so many people, the vitality absorbed by the large array is excessive, and the 'woman' doesn't know how to run the vitality, so she can only nourish the giant snake by these vitality.
On the other hand, the woman, she is actually the fog in the Nine Stone Pass last night, and the big array and her have a deep relationship with Li Xiao'er's ancestor Li Qinglian.
Last night, she had just been resurrected with a drop of Li Yao'er's eyebrows, and now the mana on her body was not as good as the previous eleven.
During the day, she used half of her spiritual energy to activate the trapping array, making her spiritual power very weak at the moment.
On the other hand, this stupid snake, it has been hiding in the Nine Rank Lotus Array and has been cultivating for many years, and at this time, it has gained vitality and nourishment, and it is constantly getting stronger.
With the strength of the woman now, she can't beat that stupid snake at all.
But there is another group of idiots waiting for her to save them, otherwise they will all die before dawn!
Isn't this to force her to do what she knows she can't do, and she has to kill herself to challenge that stupid snake just after she is resurrected?
God is too good at playing tricks!
The woman' was full of depression, and her handsome face was almost cold to ice.
Li Yao'er was full of her family, how could she still notice the face of the 'woman', seeing that the 'woman' didn't respond to her for a long time, she pulled the 'woman'' sleeve and shook it, asking eagerly with her eyes.
"How's my family doing, are they okay?"
The 'woman' was lamenting bad luck, but when Li Yao'er shook her sleeves, her eyes touched the weak and stupid human face in front of her, and her resentment was transferred to Li Yao'er with nowhere to vent.
By the way, it was her, it was this stupid girl who didn't listen to her and acted without permission, which put her in such a passive situation!
The woman' had a cold face, no longer had the patience she had before, she pulled her sleeves and shook off Li Yao'er's hand, and didn't care about her feelings, and said directly viciously.
"Thanks to you, your family and the villagers, a total of thirty-two people, have all passed out outside the big array now. ”
After saying this, she didn't look at Li Yao'er, and continued to add angrily.
"You don't need to be in a hurry, if I can't get rid of this stupid snake before dawn tomorrow morning, you and I can go to Yellow Springs with your innocent family. ”
When Li Yao'er heard this, she was like being struck by lightning, and her whole person froze in place.
For a moment, the silence in her ears was silent, and there was no sound, and only the words "I have passed out" and "I went to Huangquan with my family" were left in her mind, rumbling like the sound of a gong, and word by word echoed in her mind.
Two tears rolled out of her eyes, but she didn't wipe them, letting the tears slide down her cheeks, and then her hands and feet were numb, and the whole person collapsed to the ground at once.
The 'woman' didn't expect Li Yao'er's reaction to be so big, and a trace of remorse instantly appeared in her eyes.
It seems to have gone too far to scare this girl.
In fact, it's not really bad enough to be that bad, at least she is sure to save this girl and those ordinary people.
But now that the situation is urgent, she is really in no mood to comfort the little girl at this time.
There were too many people outside, there were thirty-two people, and with the vitality of these people, the strength of the giant snake grew rapidly, and if it dragged on, she would not be able to defeat the stupid snake.
This big array exists because of her, and in the end, these people are in danger because of her, and she can't watch these people die.
After thinking clearly, the 'woman' did not hesitate any longer, and with a flick of her wrist, she condensed a large long knife that was half a person tall with her own spiritual power.
She held the long knife in both hands and jumped lightly, jumped onto the boulder with a bang, and then used the boulder as a springboard, and the whole person flew towards the big snake like a sharp arrow off the string, holding the long knife high and slashing at the giant snake in mid-air!
