Chapter 69: Asking for Help (Part II)

In the night, the sound of killing at the mouth of the valley shook the sky, and the spiritual light shone.

The Dao heroes of the Dao Zi Army are pulling the Xuantie Giant Bow and shooting out one spirit arrow after another. These giant bows are condescending, and the spirit arrows they shoot pierce into the group of demon beasts, which can penetrate a long distance, and the damage caused is also considerable. Under a volley of giant bows, more than a dozen huge spirit arrows were enough to kill and injure a large number of demon beasts.

The mortal sergeants in the Daozi army were also drawing their bows and shooting arrows, but they were shooting lit rockets one after another. Demon beasts have rough skin and thick flesh, and mortal bows and arrows can't do much damage to them. However, rockets can create chaos in the group of demon beasts, and those frightened demon beasts are rampage, trampling on each other, and the demon beasts that are killed and injured as a result are almost close to the demon beasts that are directly killed by the spirit arrow.

With the strong attack of the Daozi army, the demon beasts at the mouth of the valley retreated. However, the Daozi army did not dare to rush out of the valley. Once the advantage of the terrain is lost, the entire Daozi army will be surrounded by demon beasts, and it will soon be crushed by demon beasts.

At the time of this strong attack, Lao Wu and several others were climbing the cliff with difficulty on the mountain wall somewhere in the valley, using iron hooks, ropes and other tools.

In order to hide their eyes, they did not dare to use torches for lighting, so they could only use the moonlight at night and the firelight that shone from time to time during the great battle to see the way forward.

Old Wu, who looked thick and strong, was particularly agile at this time, he had a hook in one hand, and he stepped on the mountaineering iron spike boots, constantly climbing on the cliff, leaving the two mortal sergeants behind him in the blink of an eye.

The two mortal sergeants were halfway up when they saw a rope thrown down from it. Pulling hard, it was very strong and reliable, and they pulled the rope one after another, and were pulled to the top of the mountain by Lao Wu.

"Thank you, Daoist Wu!" the two mortal sergeants thanked in succession. One of these two people is surnamed Wang and the other is surnamed Li, both of them are very young, but in their early twenties, Lao Wu called them Xiao Wang and Xiao Li.

"Daoist Wu is really clever, and he climbs much faster than us!" Xiao Wang complimented.

It was the first time that Lao Wu was called "Daoist Wu" by others, and he was quite complacent: "This is not a Taoist method, I practiced it by sending food to my master before." By the way, what about the mute?"

The dumbness that Lao Wu said naturally refers to Chenying. The four of them climbed the mountain together, but soon disappeared from Tatsukage.

"I didn't see it, it couldn't have been accidentally dropped down the mountain and died, right?" Xiao Li was muttering quietly, and suddenly his head was slapped by some iron object, and he screamed out.

He looked back and saw that it was the scabbard in Tatsukage's hand that had hit him.

"Dumb, when did you climb up, I didn't even see it!" The four of them are all dressed in black, and Chen Ying is even more black-clothed and black-knifed, except for a pair of eyes that occasionally reflect at night, they are simply invisible.

Tatsukage ignored them, he pointed forward, and then walked briskly down the hill from the other side.

"Hurry up, hurry up!" Lao Wu immediately followed.

Xiao Wang glanced at the valley mouth on the top of the mountain, and sighed with a face: "There are so many demon beasts!

This Xiao Wang seemed to be a talker, rushing down the mountain all the way, he was panting, and he kept talking to Lao Wu.

"Daoist Wu, your Dao method is so powerful, can you teach me?"

"This time I joined the army, I can be regarded as an eye-opener! When I heard about the Taoists, I thought they were all fortune-tellers, or poor Taoist priests who ate and drank in Taoist temples and lived on sesame oil money. I didn't expect it to be really a clever Dao method, those giant bows, obviously without arrows, can shoot one spirit arrow after another, it's really amazing!"

"I saw two Taoist masters in the army fighting each other, one with one hand is to call the wind and rain, and the other is a ball of fire with a flick of the rune paper, which is just like a trick, no, it is much more powerful than a trick! Daochang Wu, do you know how to do these tricks? Can you teach me?"

"What are the requirements for cultivating, is it too late for me to cultivate now?"

"I heard that cultivation can become immortals and live forever, is it true?"

"The main general before, the immortal wind bone, can still fly with a sword in the sky, he is half an immortal, right......?"

Xiao Wang took a bite of Wu Daochang, which made Lao Wu a little embarrassed, so he accosted him a few words. But Xiao Wang talked too much, and later he was also simple and perfunctory.

"I have decided, after this battle, I will worship a Taoist master as a teacher and practice Taoism!" Xiao Wang said: "I'm so smart, I should be able to cultivate the Dao!"

"Phew!" Xiao Li said: "If you were smart, you would have studied and tested your fame a long time ago, how could you risk death to join the army!"

"That's different!" Xiao Wang explained curtly: "My cleverness doesn't need to be in reading, but I can learn other things as soon as I learn." ”

While they were talking, their feet did not stop, and soon they were outside the valley. And the sound of the battle between the Daozi army and the demon beast has gradually disappeared, I don't know if the battle has stopped, or if it is too far away, and there are mountains blocking it, so I can't hear it clearly.

When he was about to reach the bottom of the mountain, suddenly Chenying stopped and raised his hand.

"Quiet!" Lao Wu was not stupid, he immediately woke up and hurriedly ordered the two sergeants to stop.

Lao Wu looked carefully, there were red beads at the foot of the mountain in the distance, like an oil lamp, and then looked carefully, it was a cluster of black shadows.

Suddenly, a flame erupted from the dark shadow and fell on the rocks.

"It's a fire-breathing wolf demon!" Old Wu was shocked. This kind of demon beast Dao character army has also encountered it a few times before, and it always appears in groups. Not only do they have sharp teeth and claws, but they also breathe fire from time to time. When the Daozi army encountered the Flame Wolf Demon, they all used the Xuantie Giant Bow to kill and repel them from a distance, not daring to let them get close.

"Shut your mouths, hold your breath! Hide!" Lao Wu whispered: "Don't make any noise! There are four of us, if we alarm the Yan wolves, we will all die!"

All four of them were lying on the rocks, motionless. They were all black, and it was hard to spot.

There were dozens of Flame Wolves, and they seemed to have just passed by and didn't stop. As the wolves ran, they spat out flames, and the rocks that had been burned by the flames turned black. This is probably a way for the Flame Wolves to divide their own "territory".

The flames they spit out are large and cover a wide area, but because they are all rocks and there are no weeds, they will gradually extinguish after a while, and the smell of sulfur will remain in the air. It is said that this flame wolf demon likes to swallow flammable minerals such as sulfur, so it can spew out large streams of flames.

When the Yan wolves passed by Lao Wu's hiding place, Lao Wu's heart almost jumped to his throat. Fortunately, the wolves did not notice them, and they ran away after a while.

"Are you leaving?" Xiao Li asked tentatively, he sniffed: "The flames are all extinguished, and there is a scorching smell!"

"Let's go!" Lao Wu saw Chen Ying stand up, so he also got up and patted the smoke and dust on his body.

"Xiao Wang, get up, let's go!" Lao Wu shouted in a low voice, but Xiao Wang did not respond.

"Xiao Wang?" Xiao Li also shouted, looking around.

"He's here!" Xiao Li immediately found Xiao Wang, but Xiao Wang was lying motionless on the rocks, and his back had been scorched into black charcoal!

Chen Ying hurriedly turned Xiao Wang over, probed his mouth and nose, and then shook his head with a solemn expression.

"Dead?!" Old Wu was shocked and muttered dumbly: "It was fine just now, but you died like this?"

"He was burned alive!" Xiao Li choked and said: "He usually talks the most, but he didn't say a word when he was burned by the fire, and he didn't shout in pain until he was burned to death!"

If he was sprayed by the flames and immediately screamed, it would definitely alarm those flame wolves. At that time, not only him, but even Lao Wu and others on the side will die under the claws of the Yan wolf. As a result, he was so stubborn that he didn't make a movement until he died. Maybe he was burned to death quickly, and the process was short, and it wasn't all that painful, but anyway, at least the moment he was just burned by the flames, he held back.

Lao Wu had never been burned by the flames of the flame wolf, so he didn't know what it was like, he only knew that the young man who was still alive and kicking around just now and wanted to cultivate had turned into a charred corpse at this time.

"I knew that I had promised you to teach you the Tao just now, so that you could fulfill a wish before you died!" Lao Wu said with tears in his eyes.

The three of them simply buried Xiao Wang's body with rocks and continued on their way.

Because of the loss of a companion, the atmosphere was solemn, and the three of them were silent, just speeding all the way.
