Volume 1丨Jiang is the hometown of the Qing Dynasty Chapter 40: Sadness in urgency, wisdom in urgency
After Situ Jing and Liang Zongli separated, they immediately returned to Ah Yun's side, asked her to pack her things as quickly as possible, and then returned to the Yunbo boat with the child.
Ah Yun listened to the screams in the forest, and knew that something terrible had happened without asking. Hurriedly woke up his younger brothers and sisters, and when he was hesitating to bring some daily necessities, he only felt a tingling pain in his shoulder, and turned around in horror to find that Situ Jing's eyes were glowing yellow, and he raised the awl in his hand to stab again.
Ah Yun hurriedly protected the children and slowly retreated. Ah Yun listened to the voice in the forest getting closer and closer, and couldn't help but become anxious, "Situ Jing, what's wrong with you?" Don't scare me! Ah Yun trembled and begged.
Ah Jiang looked at Sister Situ, who was usually so good, as if she had changed into a different person, and held Ah Yun's hand tightly. Applejack, Le, and Sister are so frightened that they burst into tears.
Hearing the cry, Situ Jing, who looked indifferent, showed a struggling look on her face, and tried to squeeze out a few words: "Also, don't be fast, run!" I hold on, hold on, and I can't stop it! With that, he lay on the ground panting like a wounded beast.
Ah Yun threw away the burden, immediately took his younger brothers and sisters and was about to run around Situ Jing, and when he saw the butterfly knife, he unconsciously held it in his hand.
As soon as he ran out, Ah Yun stumbled and found that he seemed to be being dragged back, and then he heard Ah Mei crying louder, turned around and looked, and found that Situ Jing was holding Ah Mei's little hand tightly and pulling them.
Ah Yun asked the three children to continue to run and go to find his brother, while he went to break Situ Jing's hand. And Ah Jiang looked at Ah Yun, who was struggling, and quickly asked Ah Jie to find his brother, and he and Ah Le stayed to help his sister.
"Situ Jing, let go, let go!" Seeing that she didn't pay attention to herself at all, Ah Yun could only start biting her wrist with his teeth.
With a click, I saw a blood splash on Ah Yun's face, Situ Jing forcibly ripped off Ah Mei's left arm, and then grabbed Ah Jiang on the side, pinching the child's neck, just clicked, Ah Jiang fell to the ground, still with his eyes open.
Ah Mei fainted in Ah Yun's arms, looking at Ah Jiang who had just lost his life, Ah Yun no longer hesitated, took out the butterfly knife, and decisively cut off Situ Jing's right hand, Situ Jing seemed to be completely unconscious, continued to open her glowing eyes, stretched out her left hand to grab Ah Le, Ah Yun gritted his teeth, and slashed down again.
Until this time, Situ Jing seemed to have regained some consciousness, and with pleading eyes, she looked at Ah Yun and said, "Quick, kill me......"
Looking at Ah Mei in his arms, as well as Ah Jiang on the ground and Ah Le who was frightened, Ah Yun thought of the daily life he usually got along with Situ Jing, and his mind was in chaos. At this time, only to hear a pop, Situ Jing bullied his body into the blade, stabbed into his chest, and then stumbled on Ah Yun's body, and the tip of the knife pierced through the back of the heart.
Situ Jing rested his head on Ah Yun's shoulder and said softly, "I'm sorry, thank you." I'm finally free. Then his head was crooked, lifeless, and a ray of yellow light sank from Situ Jing's feet into the ground.
At this time, Liang Zongli ran over, froze in place, and looked at him in disbelief. A Yun, who had a bloody face, knelt on the ground with tears in his eyes, holding Ah Mei, who was bleeding and pale, with only one arm left, and on the ground was Ah Jiang who was still staring with his eyes open, and Situ Jing, whose arms were cut off, was lying on Ah Yun's body, with a smile on his face, and the butterfly knife passed through his body.
From the forest not far away, a group of people suddenly rushed in, desperately running in the direction of the Yunbo boat, and when they passed by Ah Yun and Liang Zongli's side, everyone didn't look at it, just a gust of wind to pick up their hair.
Immediately afterwards, a large group of people with glowing eyes killed them, and Liang Zongli immediately stood in front of Ah Yun and pulled out the butterfly knife, leaving no room for the knife to be critical. In the moonlight, the trunk of the tree splattered with blood of black shadows.
At this time, a figure appeared in the sky above the forest, flashing purple eyes, snorted, reached out, and quickly sucked out a yellow light from those crazy people in the forest and held it in his hand. Among them, there seemed to be a small demon beast struggling, clenching its fists, and a streamer scattered. She looked at Jiang Guo's side, and was hesitating to deal with this hidden thing, when she was attracted by the screams below her.
Liang Zongli was already red-eyed, even if the people in front of him had returned to normal, he didn't listen to their begs for mercy, as long as he could see it, all the living people would soon become the souls of his swords.
Li Minqi took the only dozens of remaining guards and surrounded Liang Zongli in the middle, and kept persuading, saying that it was over, you should be sensible. But where can Liang Zongli listen, her eyes are blood-red, and all she can see is a puppet and hideous, and Li Minli has become the bully he saw that day in his eyes, and he has been pointing at him with a thunder halberd, and the words that come out of his mouth have become, you Liang Zongli are completely a waste, and you can only see them fall one by one around you.
A few people who rushed up to stop him one after another, and when the knife was about to fall on Li Minqi's head, suddenly, one hand grabbed Liang Zongli's shoulder, the butterfly knife fell from the right hand, and the left hand followed closely with the backhand to catch it, and stabbed it back, only to hear a poof.
Ah Yun spat blood from his mouth, and sprayed it on Liang Zongli's face, who had just turned his head, and it was only at this time that Liang Zongli completely sobered up.
Ah Yun smiled and said softly, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry...... and slowly closed his eyes.
Liang Zongli looked at Ah Yun who was slowly falling backwards, his red eyes slowly returned to normal, and he stayed where he was, until Ah Yun fell to the ground, he knelt down to help Ah Yun unconsciously, just looked at Ah Yun's face, didn't know what to think, and there was no expression on his face.
The guards beside Li Minqi were about to step forward with knives, followed by dozens of butterfly soldiers rushing out, Yu Yongqiang and Zhao Daqing hugged Ajie and Ale, and looked angrily at the Gao Guoren on the opposite side, who dared to take a step closer, and immediately let his blood splash on the spot.
Zhu Yu also walked down from the air at this time, came to Liang Zongli's side, kicked Liang Zongli away under the gaze of everyone, and then reached out and pulled out the butterfly knife and threw it aside. After thinking about it, he still stretched out a hand and brushed Ah Yun, only to see that the wounds on her body were healing at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Ahem, as a cough sounded coming, Ah Yun woke up again, opened his eyes and looked at the people around him, and finally locked his eyes on the face of Liang Zongli, who was still a little numb in disbelief.
She got up hard, touched Liang Zongli's face, and then snatched Ajie in Zhao Daqing's arms, and staggered out. Ah Le looked at his brother and then at his sister who was far away, crying and crying.
Zhu Yu just left one sentence, and then disappeared in place:
"From now on, it's up to you to decide where you want to go."
Yi Houpeng, after being carried away by dozens of butterfly mayflies that night, the next morning, as the sun rose, he finally landed on the shore, and everyone had no time to be sad, and continued to hold him, chopping the thorns in the forest while continuing to walk north along the foothills.
"Let me go, I'll be able to go on my own." Yi Houpeng said softly.
The two of them put him down, Yi Houpeng rubbed Wei Yi's waist card, and the remains and things of Cong Weihu and Wu Bo all fell into the lake, he took one last look at the south, wiped his eyes, and turned around without hesitation to continue on his way.
The people stumbled along the halfway up the mountain on the west bank of the Green River, and when they were hungry, there were many wild things in the forest, and when they were thirsty, they would fill the stream with water. The verdant Green River in my impression became dark and foul at this time, and no one thought much about it, but it was related to the great changes that took place in Gaoguo that day.
A few days later, after crossing two mountains in a row, Yi Houpeng saw the towering stone last wall, and everyone just couldn't help but sigh, who stood up, it looked like a miracle. In a hurry, no one has the mood and physical strength to explore.
That night, Yi Houpeng, who was continuing to rush with his brothers, suddenly heard a vague cannon sound, he asked the others if they heard it, and everyone shook their heads. Yi Houpeng had to climb a mountain cliff, only to see the northeast, in the dim night, outside the mountain in the distance, there were bursts of shallow light, and then after two breaths, there would be a vibration sound.
The butterfly army, who climbed up and saw this scene, couldn't help but wonder, there are still two months before the New Year, and there are no towns ahead, who is setting off fireworks?
After seeking everyone's opinions, Yi Houpeng decided to rest in place for one night and continue his journey the next morning.
At night, everyone still didn't dare to light a bonfire, although since the landing, the road has been safe, but after so many accidents, the dustpan village is getting closer and closer, and they don't want to cause trouble. Everyone rested back to back, and the two of them took turns to be on duty.
Just when Yi Houpeng was in a daze and seemed to be asleep, the butterfly army behind him got up without saying hello, Yi Houpeng fell to the sky, shook his head, and was about to laugh and scold, but someone covered his mouth.
"Captain Yi, don't make any noise, look below." Yi Houpeng took advantage of the moonlight and followed the hint to look at the river at the bottom of the mountain, only to see one black shadow after another down the river, accompanied by red light, occasionally accompanied by a few roars, fluttering splashes.
Yi Houpeng hurriedly gestured to everyone, patted his shoulders in turn, and after everyone knew it, he bowed his waist together, slowly moved from the woods to the shore, and couldn't help but sweat coldly when he looked closely.
Thinking back to the light and cannon sound he had just seen, Yi Houpeng immediately figured out that something big must have happened at the pass between the northern Gaoguo and Bozhou.
Yi Houpeng hurriedly asked everyone to count the equipment, cheer up, and start to enter the state of preparation, along the way, there will be no accident to encounter those monsters who are alone or don't know when. The heartstrings, which had been relaxed, tightened again.
Yi Houpeng rarely showed a smile and gently encouraged: "Brothers, hold on for two more days, I estimate that we will go home soon, there should be a big battle ahead, and we will be ashamed when we go back." The remaining dozens of people rekindled their fighting spirit, and the bumps and accidents along the way made the will that they thought they had exhausted gush out of their chests again.
"Captain Yi, have you noticed that when we fight these monsters, it seems that most of the time, it is either at night, or under the large black clouds they have drummed up." A guard named Zhen Guangyu said casually.
After he said this, everyone nodded yes, as if this was really the case. Yi Houpeng thought about it, it was true, from entering Pingyuan City, to the town near Linjiang City, to Yangyi City, and experiencing a solar eclipse along the way, it was basically a dark environment, and he was unexpectedly disturbed by those monsters, fighting and fighting.
Yi Houpeng said as he walked: "Maybe, even so, we can't take it lightly during the day." In this way, we rushed in the second half of the night and during the day, and we had a good rest in the first half of the night. ”
After speaking, according to the requirements of the team when Zhu Yu was marching in the forest, everyone spread out the corresponding battle formation and began to set off one after another. Yi Houpeng looked at the stone wall on the ridge above his head, and silently thought in his heart that in a few days, he would be able to see the border pass between Bozhou and Gaoguo.
For the next two days, it was peaceful, but it was not uncommon to see many wild beasts fleeing in the direction they came, or running to the ridge and disappearing under the stone last wall.
On the third day, everyone could already vaguely see the black and oppressive clouds and smoke on the side of the high country in the distance, and there was a thicker red fog in the air, during which there was constantly a light flickering, and on the tall stone wall, there could also be seen something like a giant, constantly climbing and rolling down, but it was not very real.
On the fourth day, the forest before the dawn was terrible, and the beasts that were estimated to be able to run had basically left their homes. Yi Houpeng and the others raised their hearts to their throats and cautiously walked through the mountains and forests.
The sound of falling trees kept coming from the front, and Yi Houpeng hurriedly raised his hand to remind everyone to spread out in a semicircle, hide behind the trees, set up swords and arrows, and stared ahead with bated breath.
I saw a girl dressed in white armor reflecting the moonlight and stained with blood stains, stumbling from the woods to this side, holding a black iron knife in her hand, looking back in horror from time to time. Suddenly, a hideous and dozens of puppets also appeared closely behind her, flashing red eyes, chasing after her.
Just as the monster entered the ambush circle, Yi Houpeng took the lead in shooting arrows, and the others followed closely and began to attack. More than a dozen butterfly soldiers ambushed in the trees jumped down, and with just one sword, they casually solved the puppets under them, Yi Houpeng at the back of the formation, with the remaining two teams, faced the hideous red one-horned puppet, and the left and right wings killed the surrounding puppets respectively.
When the girl saw them at first, she was startled, thinking that she had been wrapped in dumplings, and when she was at a loss, she found that the dense arrows were shooting behind her, and she found that it should be a human race, so she accelerated and continued to run towards those people. I saw that the young man wearing a red robe and a white helmet looked so familiar, rubbed his eyes, confirmed that it was correct, and then sped up again and pounced straight up.
"Dapeng, I've found you!" The girl cried out in surprise.
Yi Houpeng listened to the familiar voice, the voice that used to be the most annoying, but at this time it sounded like a heavenly sound, it was Mao Shaojuan who was looking for a thousand miles.
"Be careful!" Yi Houpeng hurriedly rushed over, hugged Mao Shaojuan, and rolled out to the left, and a moment later, the hideous tail thorn would pierce Mao Shaojuan's heart.
"I'll talk about it later, let's get rid of this hideous first!" Yi Houpeng stopped in front of Mao Shaojuan, didn't have time to greet her, but stared closely at this monster with a sharp mouth, full of spikes, and a particularly long tail.
Mao Shaojuan's voice came from behind him: "This monster is very fast, but its claws and tail are full of stingers, you should be careful!" ”
Yi Houpeng didn't turn around, just nodded, and then blew an undulating whistle to remind the other brothers of the special features of this monster. After several battles in a row, in order to be able to communicate in the middle of the night, gestures alone were no longer enough to deal with the ever-changing battlefield, so it was proposed by Wei Yi at that time, according to the monster's Tedan, everyone used different whistles to remind others.
The others quickly dealt with the puppet they were responsible for, and then surrounded the hideous. The front and back take turns, and then the brother next to him responds with a knife, repeatedly replaced, constantly distracting the hideous attention and creating opportunities to kill.
Just when the monster turned its head to look away, Yi Houpeng quickly deceived himself, pretending to cut at the monster's hind legs, and sure enough, this thing kept his eyes on it, and his tail swept towards Yi Houpeng. Yi Houpeng immediately leaned down, turned to the left, only to see a red light flash, the monster's tail was cut off, Yi Houpeng did not pause, turned around, followed by a forward roll, and then kicked his legs, holding the knife with both hands, jumped into the air, and slammed the monster's just turned head, and with a poof, his head was split in two.
Seeing this, the others immediately swarmed up and chopped up their legs, not giving the monster a chance to continue attacking. Yi Houpeng crushed the charcoal that he took out of the monster's brain and took a sip. This hideous beast is much easier than what I saw in that big battle.
Looking at the brothers who had been holding back for a long time, no one was injured, and his face was full of happy expressions after winning the battle, Yi Houpeng nodded, and was about to say something, when he was suddenly pounced on his back, hugged his neck fiercely, and almost fell to the ground.
Mao Shaojuan wrapped himself around him, couldn't help but stretch out his thumb to the others, and praised again and again: "The Butterfly Army, it really deserves its reputation, and the cow is very good!" ”
Yi Houpeng looked helpless, Mao Shaojuan obviously forgot that he was on the front line just now, and immediately revealed his original form. He didn't let her come down, but just made a gesture for the brothers to quickly clean up the scene and be on alert, for fear that there would be monsters behind him that would continue to attack, and he had something to ask about the sticky spirit on his back.
"Why are you here? How did you get here and let the monsters chase you? ”
"Didn't people miss you, all the way from Yue, no, from Yizhou's house, came to you?"
"Then why are you alone?"
Mao Shaojuan jumped down this time, Xu was afraid that Yi Houpeng would complain about her, and she was very weak-hearted, and muttered: "During the day, I was in full swing with those black Dongdong, and I accidentally dropped the flying sound tube that my father gave me under the wall, and I could only take advantage of the chaos to pick it up, and then they drove it all the way here." ”
"It's just you, no one else?" Yi Houpeng obviously didn't believe Mao Shaojuan's words, although she usually pestered herself and looked very aggressive, in fact, she was as smart and wise as Liang Zongqing.
"Oh, it's just me, no one else."
"Then where did the blood on your body come from?"
Speaking of this, Mao Shaojuan seemed to remember that she was injured, and a large amount of blood flowed out of her shoulder, and then she fainted. Yi Houpeng hurriedly hugged her, put it on the ground, took out the fire from her and lit it, fortunately, the wound was not very big, it should have been scratched through the woods.
Yi Houpeng breathed a long sigh of relief, maybe she was too tired, and then she was too happy to see herself, so she asked someone to bring a water bag and gave Mao Shaojuan two sips, and she woke up leisurely and turned around. After bandaging her simply, everyone thought about it, or retreat two miles, it will be dawn soon, and then continue to move forward during the day tomorrow, now I don't know the situation ahead, it is easy to encounter more monsters.
That is, Yi Houpeng's decision inadvertently saved everyone, because ahead, more monsters have crowded the east and west banks of the Green River, and there is no end.
