Chapter Fifty-Six: Outwitting the Puppet Army
Sure enough, when the map was automatically put away, the Optimus Pig immediately snorted, turned around and flew west. As soon as I flew out, a thought suddenly popped into my mind, so I quietly turned sideways and asked the girl in a low voice: "You say, could this be a trap?"
"No......" Before the girl could answer, the voice of the wind-shaped man had already followed. It seems that my previous worries were not unreasonable, and in front of the Wind Man, we were almost nothing.
"Well, I say, it's unfair," protested the girl, "we're in the light, you're in the shadows, we don't even know who you are, and you're eavesdropping on us." It's too insincere to ask us to save people!"
As soon as he finished speaking, a white gas-like substance suddenly sprang out from under the belly of the pig, which flew between me and the girl, turned around the back of my head, and stopped on the neck of the pig. The wind-shaped man appeared, and he turned out to be a transparent young man, with quite handsome facial features, but only a head and body, no hands and feet, and looked like a glass fish.
He leaned on the pig's head and greeted us, "Hello, I'm calling a gust of wind." ”
"Save it, I'm still called a person!" the girl pushed back unceremoniously, "What kind of name is this, are you deviants still nicknamed?"
"My name is really Yi Zhenfeng, Yi Ren's Yi, cheer up, plump Feng," Yi Zhenfeng explained seriously.
"Poof!" the girl couldn't help laughing, "You don't pull a few skinny looks, where are you cheering up? Where are you plump? and still vibrant...... Hahaha!"
After her distorted interpretation, this Yi Zhenfeng looked really weak, there were no internal organs under the transparent body, and he swayed from side to side against the neck of the Optimus Pig, like a huge piece of cold powder. At this time, the Optimus Pig was flying at a speed of a hundred miles per hour, and although Yi Zhenfeng was standing in front of me, the howling wind passed through his slender body without hindrance, and all of them hit me. Curiously, I reached into this crystal clear "cold powder", which was empty, and I only felt a trace of coolness.
"You asked me to show up, and you made fun of people. Yi Zhenfeng's face sank, his body flipped over, and he fell from the neck of the Optimus Pig, disappearing in an instant.
"Hey...... Don't," my voice couldn't keep up with the speed of the wind, so I had to explain to the air, "Don't be so stingy, it's the first time we've seen the Wind Man, and it's inevitable that we'll be a little out of shape." ”
The girl also persuaded: "Okay, don't make fun of you, hurry up and show up to do business, don't you want to save people? Where to land? Don't fly too much." ”
Only then did Yi Zhenfeng fall from the sky again, silently landing in front of me, floating like a cloud on the back of the supernatural pig. He was facing forward, with his back to me, and seemed to be angry with us, because his tense expression could be faintly seen from behind, through the transparent head.
I tried to lighten the mood with a new topic: "It's so strange, you just spoke like a gossamer, intermittently, why are you so clear and sharp now?"
Yi Zhenfeng didn't look back, but he still had to answer all questions: "Hmph, our wind-shaped people are extremely fast, and the words we say are naturally beyond the scope of your ordinary people's acceptance, what you hear is what you think is the 'wind sound'." It is only when you move at a speed close to ours that it is possible to receive fragments of my language. And when we're at rest, we're able to have a barrier-free conversation with you. ”
"Huh, you?" said the girl, looking curiously from side to side, "You're not the only one here?"
Yi Zhenfeng tilted his head slightly and said, "Of course, there are also a few friends of mine, but they are used to freedom and don't want to deal with ordinary people." ”
I remembered the reason for the dealing, and said, "By the way, what did you just say to save, what do you mean?"
Yi Zhenfeng turned his head and said: "I met with my friends to go on a night tour in the mountains, and I saw a group of intellectually weak people marching towards a village, but unfortunately we had no speed, but we couldn't do anything......
The girl immediately interrupted: "How can you be powerless, if you many wind-shaped people work together, at least you can blow a strong wind to blow away the enemy." ”
Yi Zhenfeng said: "We thought the same way at the time, but there were too few people, it had no effect, and those puppets were not afraid of these at all." No, we were about to find more friends nearby to help us, and we ran into you on the way. ”
I hurriedly asked, "Where is that village?"
"It should be almost there!" Yi Zhenfeng said, turning his head back to find his destination, but at the same time as me, he saw a fire rising from a mountain col not far ahead.
"Oops! It's too late!"
Yi Zhenfeng instantly turned into a breeze and shot out like an arrow. Almost at the same time, I felt seven or eight strong winds blowing forward from the left and right.
"Hold on!" I leaned forward, clamping my legs around Optimus's belly, wrapping the girl's arm around my waist with one hand, and pushing the speed up the top gear with the other.
A good Optimus Pig, fixed in the air, and then roared, "bang" and stabbed towards the place where the fire rose. Piercing the night sky, a few exclamations were faintly heard on both sides: "Wow...... "......It seems that the Wind-shaped people have been left far behind by us.
I suddenly felt as if the air around me was burning, and the steaming heat made my hairs curl, and my mouth was so thirsty that I was about to go to my backpack to retrieve the tears and sacrifice the jade screen, but I found that the village was close in front of me. The air was filled with the smell of death, more than 100 houses were lost in the fire, corpses were strewn along the roads in the fields, survivors ran and cried in the ruins, and golems in jet-black armor chased their prey expressionlessly, slaughtering indiscriminately.
I unleashed my de-kill move from afar, tearing several golems to shreds, turning up my speed to the lowest and turning the tail of the Optimus Boar. The Optimus Pig seemed to have a good heart, and when it landed, it smashed right on the head of a puppet, directly crushing him into a meatloaf, which was still baked.
The puppets were really well-trained, and they reacted immediately, leaving behind the villagers who were unable to resist and attacking us. The girl and I rolled over and got off the pig and quickly got into the fight. The puppets at the front were not enough for me to play, either being poked in the heart by their own spears, or being thrown into the fire and turned into roasted sweet potatoes. The girl is not a vegetarian either, and she used the small short sword she carried with her to solve three or four enemies. At first, I was worried about her safety, but I found that her battlefield adaptability was far richer than mine, and I saw her sacrifice the jade lan screen, and the puppets' blades smashed on it, clanging, but they couldn't hurt her in the slightest. And she hid in the Yulan screen, holding a short sword and poking outward casually, one by one, very relaxed. It turns out that the "can go out but not enter" function of Yulan screen can still be used in this way, which is an eye-opener for me.
At this time, a voice suddenly came from the hillside at the entrance of the village: "Array!"
I followed the prestige, and the fire shone on the man's face, a man with a goatee, riding on a yellow horse, in a white robe, with a long sword hanging from his waist, and he seemed to be the commander of these puppets. According to Lu Tianci, these walking dead puppets have no thoughts, and only know absolute obedience to the orders of their commanders. Sure enough, as soon as all the puppets heard the commander's command, they all stopped what they were doing, quickly assembled, and arranged into four phalanxes, with a strict appearance and a murderous aura. Then, Goatee drew his sword and waved it at me: "Attack!"
These four phalanxes, numbering two or three hundred men, raised their spears diagonally, marched in unison, with expressions of death, shouting the slogan "No! No!" and crushed me from four directions at the same time. The corpses of the burning houses could not stop the enemy's advance, they maintained their formation, walked through the flames with their heads held high, without blinking their eyelids, and occasionally the puppets were knocked down by the burned beams, and the puppets behind them would immediately step forward to fill the position, and if the legs of the knocked down could still move, they would get up from the ground and return to the team in a blink of an eye, and those who could not stand up would follow the team and crawl forward. This is simply a fearless army of "puppets" who do not know the pain and even save the medical team, if I just came out of Jiuqu Mountain and first entered the rivers and lakes when I encountered such a formation, I would definitely be at a loss, but before that, I have experienced the test of various dangers, this little piece of cake is naturally not a problem. >
