"What? There is a demon beast on the outskirts, and the main soldier in the west of the city, Qianyuan, is killed in battle?"

Ye Qingyu was extremely surprised.

"Yes, early this morning, the four city gates have been closed, it is said that it is in the suburbs of the mountains, the signs of the beast tide have begun to appear, the main soldier in the west of the city, Qianyuan, led people to the mountains to investigate, but at noon, only one of the guards escaped, saying that he had encountered a demon beast in the western mountain, and the main Qianyuan soldier was killed in battle!" Tang San also said with a serious face: "This news has spread in the city, and now the people in the county town are panicking, everyone remembers the beast tide five years ago, and the entire Luming county city was almost slaughtered." ”

The beast tide five years ago can be said to be a nightmare for the people in the entire Luming County.

It is also Ye Qingyu's nightmare.

Because his parents were also killed in that beast tide defense battle.

At that time, the beast tide came very strangely.

The range of about 50 miles away from the periphery of Luming County is the edge of the Luming Mountain Range, the mountain has been smoothed down a lot, the vegetation is luxuriant, because it is close to Luming County, so it is also called Luming Mountain.

Although Luming Mountain can barely be regarded as a lofty mountain, it is definitely not a dangerous place, and there are often caravans and adventure teams that enter that mountain range, hunt demon beasts, pick spirit grass, and explore mineral resources, which is also one of the hunting grounds within the territory of Luming County.

For a long time, there has not been a large-scale group of demon beasts in Luming Mountain.

But five years ago, overnight, a vast number of incredible beast tides rushed out of Luming Mountain like a tsunami, and it is said that standing on the city wall at that time, looking at it, the dense variety of monsters rolled over like a flood that broke the embankment, covering the sky and the sun, and surrounded the entire Luming County City.

The soldiers and civilians in the county town held on to the death for ten days and ten nights, depleting resources and suffering heavy casualties.

Seeing that the city was about to be breached, the beast tide retreated incredibly.

Like the ebb tide after a tsunami, in less than a quarter of an hour, those bloodthirsty demon beasts who had frantically besieged the county town retreated cleanly, as if some force was controlling and directing them, without the slightest pause or hesitation.

Afterwards, Xue ** Fang and many sects investigated this beast tide incident openly and secretly.

But no clues were found.

It is said that there is nothing unusual in Luming Mountain.

The thousands of demon beasts that retreated into the mountains melted into the air like thin snow under the scorching sun, leaving no trace behind, and disappeared in such an incredible and mysterious way.

You must know that demon beasts are a kind of low-level creatures that are lower than the demon race, they are between beasts and intelligent creatures, they are born with a certain amount of strength, and have the ability to kill, but generally speaking, the level of wisdom is extremely low, in addition to the suppression of demon beasts of high-level bloodlines, different groups of demon beasts meet to fight, and they will never cooperate with each other, even if they are demon beasts of the same race, they will kill each other, and it is an existence that can only bring destruction.

So theoretically, it is impossible for the demon beasts to plan such a strange offensive.

It is also impossible to appear suddenly and then disappear suddenly.

This is an offensive that only armies of intelligent beings, such as the armies of humans and demons, can organize.

And their appearance and retreat, for no reason, without any warning.

So this incident has been called a mystery ever since.

But after a long time, no one investigated any clues, and those demon beasts never appeared again, so over time, everyone stopped paying attention, and the military stopped mentioning this strange thing.

In the past few years, 66 has continued to have caravans, adventurer teams, hunting teams and other forces entering Luming Mountain, and they have never encountered large-scale demon beast groups again, and there are no major losses, it seems that everything has returned to normal.

However, I didn't expect that after five years, there were signs of demon beasts emerging in Luming Mountain.

Even Qianyuan's were killed in battle.

Ye Qingyu has seen the strength of this soldier lord of the Chengxi Soldier Mansion, when he and Chen Jiuxing joined forces to besiege and kill the female sword immortal Wang Jianru, although he was defeated, but the strength he showed was at least above twenty Lingquan, and he could be regarded as a master in the entire Luming County.

With Qianyuan's strength, he just went to investigate the abnormality, not to fight to the death, and he didn't even escape for his life, so he died in Luming Mountain?

Could it really be that kind of strange thing that happened five years ago is about to befall Luming County again?

In Ye Qingyu's heart, countless thoughts flashed in an instant.

While he was talking, a rapid alarm bell sounded outside, and the mixed yuan alarm bell located at the gate of the City Lord's Mansion in the center of the city rang immediately, nine times in a row, and then the alarm bell of the White Deer Academy's school class also rang rapidly, also nine times.

Then there was the gathering bell in the mansion of the major soldiers, which rang at the same time, nine times in a row.

"Nine bells ringing in unison!"

Tang San's complexion changed drastically.

He was also the one who had experienced the terrible disaster five years ago, when he was less than eleven years old, because he was a slave, when the situation in the city was at its most desperate, he was once released with swords and armor, and he also stood on the head of the city of Luming County to fight, and saw the terrible scene of the beast tide covering the sky and the sun.

In Tang San's memory, at the beginning of the beast tide, the bells that rang in Luming County were exactly the same as those outside at this time, they were the three bells of the City Lord's Mansion White Deer Academy and the Four Great Soldiers Lord's Mansion, and the nine bells rang in unison.

Ye Qingyu's complexion also changed.

Everything in Tang San's memory was not deeply imprinted in his memory.

The disaster five years ago will not be forgotten by everyone in Luming County.

"You stay in the house, take care of everyone, and from now on, close the door of the house and see no one. Before Ye Qingyu's words fell, his body had already turned into a streamer, rising into the sky, shooting in the direction of the west city gate.

Tang San didn't dare to slack off, and hurriedly arranged and arranged.

......

Shout!

Ye Qingyu's figure fell on the enemy tower at the west gate.

"Who?"

"Ah, it's Marquis Ye!"

"See Master Hou!"

The sergeants who were nervously arranging on the city gate hurriedly saluted.

"Excuse me, what's the situation?" Ye Qingyu said, looking out of the city gate.

"There is a warning signal ahead, in Luming Mountain, a large number of demon beasts have appeared, and they are approaching the county like a tide, I am afraid that it is ...... I'm afraid that the tragedy five years ago is about to befall again......" A middle-aged officer in a general's robe replied with a slightly trembling voice.

When everyone heard the news of the reappearance of the beast tide, their first reaction was to think of the disaster that happened five years ago.

Rumble!

Boom Boom!

A majestic aura permeated from all over the city of Luming.

Pillars of light rose to the sky, and the ground of the entire Luming County City trembled, as if there was some terrible power to break through the ground, and the orange streamer light pillars swept across the sky, outlining dense lines like a net in the sky above the Luming County City, and finally shrouded the entire Luming County City below.

Then a pale yellow light pattern like glass spreads out, protecting the entire county town.

[Thick Earth Glazed Thousand Knots] Rune Formation.

The rune formation under the entire county town of this hidden domain is said to penetrate the leylines, and it is closed on weekdays, absorbing the free energy between heaven and earth all the time, once activated, it can protect the entire city in it and resist attacks from outside, which is the strongest line of defense in the entire Luming county town.

The last time Ye Qingyu saw this formation, it was when the whole city was besieging and hunting down the female sword immortal Wang Jianru and Song Xiaojun.

The formation is reproduced.

Under the pale yellow light, the entire giant city was shrouded in a strange light, and it seemed that only this light could give the creatures in the city a faint sense of security.

Soon, on the horizon in the distance, a large number of panicked figures appeared.

These years have been relatively peaceful, and there are also some villages outside the county town, and a small number of people live outside the city, at this time, I heard the rumors of the appearance of demon beasts, and I was so frightened that I had to rush towards the city frantically, in addition to civilians, there are also some warriors of caravan adventure groups, who are also running frantically to escape.

In the distance, smoke and dust rushed to the sky.

The ground trembled.

Ye Qingyu's eyesight is excellent, and he can already see that the beast tide that cannot be seen at a glance is like a Jedi flood, rushing madly from a distance, and it is extremely fast, and the place where it passes is as if the sky has collapsed, as if everything has been destroyed.

It's a monster tide.

This should only be the forward part of the monster tide, but its momentum is already terrifying enough.

Woohoo!

Streamer flashes.

Wen Wan and Kong Kong and other powerhouses in the city also appeared at the head of the city.

The faces of the two people were a little grim, and when they saw that Ye Qingyu was also there, they said hello, and then the two glanced at each other, and a different color flashed in the depths of their eyes, but they didn't say anything more.

Then the city lord Qin Ying and the other three major military masters also appeared.

The beast tide exploded, coming from the west, and it was obvious that the west city wall and the west city gate had naturally become the key area for prevention.

"Close the gates. ”

A hint of compassion flashed in Qin Ying's eyes, and he spoke.

"But...... My lord, what about those who haven't come in outside the city yet?" said an officer, hesitantly.

"If you don't close the city gate again, the beast tide rushes to you, everything is over, you can only take care of the overall situation, close the city gate, close the formation......" Qin Ying gritted his teeth and said: "As the city lord, I can only choose to save the lives of most of the people!"

Distance.

The beast tide roared.

The heavens and the earth shook under the rush of the demon beasts.

Those who struggled to run desperately, like ants under the stormy waves, were terrible, and they were about to be overwhelmed by this terrible beast tide, and the sound of crying shook the sky, and some old people and children who were physically exhausted could be vaguely seen, falling in despair, and women holding young children, crying in despair......

There are more than 1,000 people in this group.

But in the contrast of the boundless beast tide, there are few pitiful.

The city gate of Luming County City is divided into two layers, one layer is the trap door, it is extremely easy to open and close, it is open in the morning and closed at night on weekdays, to prevent general dangers, and there is a layer of heavy stainless steel cast throughout, the seal is engraved and strengthened by the rune formation, it is refined, it is huge, heavy like a mountain, it is extremely difficult to open and close once, and it takes a lot of time, it is open on weekdays, it will be closed only at the critical moment, and once it is closed, the whole city will be solid, in a short time, it can not be breached.

When Qin Ying said about closing the city gate, he naturally meant closing the second layer of the city gate.

And once the gates of the city are closed, the more than 1,000 people outside the city will surely die.

When all the people in the city heard this, they all showed compassion.
