[824] Poisonous insects

The wind and sand had stopped for a while, and the sky and earth were no longer gray. The light of the bright moon sprinkled over the heavens and the earth like clear flowing water. The desert in most parts of the south shimmered softly.

The Black Thunder Mountain was bathed in the light of the moon, and the place was scorched black. Every inch of land and every rock was pitch black, as if it had just been struck by lightning and burned by flames.

On the quiet hills, there is only a strong wind in the wilderness, which blows with a whirring sound and sometimes sounds.

The Howling Moon Man stood proudly on the top of the mountain, bathed in the bright moonlight, and the two wolf heads on his shoulders looked at the north in unison. The strange stone valley under the mountain is also much clearer in the moonlight.

Howling Moon could see the strange shapes and shapes of craggy rocks that stood in the desolate wilderness, scattered among the endless sand dunes. On the ground of the valley, there were many dark shadows.

After the vicissitudes of the sea and the erosion of wind and sand, it has formed a unique landform with strange mountains and stones and pictograms in the eyes of Xiaoyue.

Moreover, Xiaoyue's unusual sense of smell and nose had already smelled Xiao Shizhu's fading breath from the wind blowing in the valley.

"Adjutant General. Xiaoyue shouted, and another beast soul with two wolf heads galloped to his side.

"Is it possible that our other army will enter the east side of the valley to ambush as planned?"

"I just received a message from the flying pigeons, and they had entered the sand dunes on the east side of the valley half an hour ago. Xiaoyue's lieutenant knelt on the ground, lowered his head and returned: "Now everything is ready, and there is nothing abnormal. ”。

Xiaoyue also guessed that if Xiao Shizhu escaped, he would definitely go to the Strange Stone Valley. According to intelligence claims, Ke Yun also left the Huangquan Holy Land with Xiao Shizhu. Xiao Yue thought that Ke Yun, who was extremely familiar with the southern area of Huangquan, would definitely give Xiao Shizhu's advice, that is, to go to the strange stone valley and take advantage of the terrain to get rid of the pursuers.

Xiaoyue drew up this plan, and since there were no ambushes on the sand dunes on either side, she would hide behind the sand dunes. Once Xiaoyue couldn't find Xiao Shizhu in Heilei Mountain, he surrounded the valley as planned.

Fortunately, Xiao Shizhu really ran into the valley, which allowed Xiaoyue to get her wish, and also made Xiaoyue feel very lucky today.

He stared at the moonlit valley, and saw the moment when he cut off Xiao Shizhu's head with his own hands and became famous for eternity.

"Very good, inform all our ghost soldiers, enter the strange stone valley immediately, and the ghost soldiers behind the sand dunes will also set off immediately. Encircled and pursued Xiao Shizhu and his men. Xiaoyue pulled out the sharp long knife behind her backhand with her backhand, and the blade of the knife flashed with cold light in the light of the yin moon: "Kill the ghost and leave no one behind." ”。

"Yes. The lieutenant stood up, turned and gave the order.

"Son of God, get ready to witness the horror of the Huangquan Ghost Soldiers. Looking at the Howling Moon in the Strange Stone Valley, he clenched the twin swords in his hands......

"Pause for a moment. Xiao Shizhu, who was out of breath, suddenly stopped, bent down to hold a strange stone beside him, and gasped heavily.

After being sucked away by the Queen of Yellow Spring, he no longer had the energy and physical strength he had before. Soon after he entered the strange stone valley and rushed to the north, he was already sweating profusely, and his robe was mostly soaked, and it was tightly attached to his body, which was very uncomfortable.

It was not a large army that followed him, only a few people who followed him, that is, Qin Yuanshi Cassia Ming and Ke Yun Three Ghosts. Even the national teacher Yingying Xunxiang and others have disappeared.

Ke Yun stepped forward and held Xiao Shizhu, and Shi Cassia also handed him the kettle to open the lid.

Xiao Shizhu drank a few sips of water, and finally breathed evenly.

Ke Yun was a little worried, but he wasn't worried that there were only so many ghosts around them, what would happen if they were attacked? Today's Xiao Shizhu is completely different from the past. Xiao Shizhu, who was a lot weaker, made Ke Yun always worried, for fear that he would not be able to escape from Huangquan at all.

"Lord, take a break. Qin Yuan fell from the top of his head, stood on Shi Cianming's shoulder, looked around and said, "Now we have gone far enough, we can rest and move forward." ”。

The wind in the valley had subsided, and there was silence all around, and no matter how whispered they were, they could bring out a burst of echoes that echoed among the strange stones bathed in the moonlight.

"No, as planned, we have to go two or three miles further. Xiao Shizhu returned the kettle, straightened his waist and stepped forward, continuing to walk slowly north.

Qin Yuan and the others looked at each other, and they all saw the worry in each other's eyes and faces by the moonlight.

"Father-in-law, let's take a break. Soon, three or two arrows rushed up Shi Cassia and walked side by side with Xiao Shizhu: "Your body hasn't recovered for the time being......."

"It's not going to recover for the time being. Without waiting for him to finish speaking, Xiao Shizhu, who smiled bitterly, had already grabbed the words: "This time it is considered to be capsized in the gutter, but it is not something that can be recovered by resting." It's better to solve the pursuers as soon as possible. ”。

As soon as he finished speaking, Xiao Shizhu, who hadn't taken a few steps, was out of breath again. He turned around and looked in the direction of the road he had come from, the moonlit Black Thunder Mountain.

Now they were far away from the Black Thunder Mountain, and they couldn't see the situation on the mountain clearly under the bright moonlight.

He didn't turn his head back for a long time, but he was suddenly stopped by Ke Yun and stopped. Turning his head back, Xiao Shizhu saw a boulder in front of him, close at hand.

If it weren't for Ke Yun's pull, he would have had an intimate contact with that craggy boulder.

Xiao Shizhu was stunned for a moment, motioned for Ke Yun to let go of him, and then walked around the boulder and continued forward.

They had barely stepped out of the shadows among the boulders, and stood in the moonlight, when they heard a terrible and shrill wolf howl behind them.

"It's coming. Xiao Shizhu frowned, and quickened his steps: "Qin Yuan, implement the plan." ”。

Before he could speak, Qin Yuan had already spread his wings and told him to go farther in the moonlight. After a while, he circled behind a boulder in the distance and disappeared.

Xiao Shizhu and the others stopped moving forward, and after stopping, they turned around in unison, facing the south, and the direction they came from, there was constantly the sound of wolves Xiao on the side of the Black Thunder Mountain.

"Cassia Stone, now is the time to rest. Xiao Shizhu sat cross-legged on the ground, and the moon-destroying sword at his waist was also drawn out and inserted into the ground in front of him.

One on the left and one on the right, is Shi Cassia and Ke Yun, who are on full alert. On the other hand, Xiao Shizhu is calm and calm, and his eyes still contain confidence in his eyes.

The moon-destroying sword unsheathed in the moonlight was even colder than the surrounding yin wind. The cold light flickering on the sword body contained a restrained and murderous aura that would explode at any time.

"Relaxing, it's just a battle that has been decided for a long time. Xiao Shizhu smiled and said lightly to the two subordinates.

The ground around them was already trembling, and the muffled sound of thunder and thunder was constantly echoing under the dust. The smaller stones on the ground had begun to roll with trembling, and some were even bouncing one after another.

Xiao Shizhu turned a blind eye to it, and simply closed his eyes to recuperate. I don't know how long it took, when the earth slowly stopped trembling, he heard a yin and yang strange voice in front of him: "Oh, hehe, look who this is? ”。

Xiao Shizhu opened his eyes unhurriedly, and saw that three feet away in front of him, there were two wolf-headed beast soul Xiaoyue. Turning their heads to look closely, the trembling ground around them was full of these beasts with two heads, and they had surrounded all three of them.

Countless ghost soldiers surrounded them, and the eyes of each ghost soldier were overflowing with bloodthirsty desire.

Xiaoyue's unspoken wolf head was still grinning, and the other said triumphantly to Xiao Shizhu: "The son of the dignified god fled in the wilderness, and only these ghosts are left to follow you until now." What about your subordinates and your followers? Have they all betrayed you? Look at the way you look now, you are really embarrassed. ”。

"Really?" Xiao Shizhu asked rhetorically and stood up, still unfazed and calm.

"Have you forgotten, you deformed brute, that I once fought alone against the army of ghost soldiers outside your holy land. Xiao Shizhu tightened his grip on the hilt of the Moon Destroying Sword inserted on the ground in front of him, and slowly pulled the Moon Destroying Sword out of the ground.

"Even you Huangquan ghost soldiers are not necessarily stronger than the ghost soldiers of Xudu. Then, Xiao Shizhu said when the Moon Destroying Sword was completely drawn.

The tone was full of sarcasm, and Xiaoyue and his men were uncomfortable to hear.

"Go back and tell you Queen of Yellow Springs, stop joking with the lives of your ghost people. As she spoke, a mocking smile appeared on Xiao Shizhu's face: "Or maybe she doesn't take you seriously at all?"

As soon as he finished speaking, a ghost soldier beside Xiaoyue suddenly felt something on his back, crawling around with bursts of itching, from his back to his neck.

The ghost soldier subconsciously raised his hand, aimed at the itchy place on his neck, and slapped it down, bringing a crisp sound of "pop", and a dark green sticky liquid in his palm exploded and burst out.

Immediately after that, the ghost soldier only felt a hot and painful palm, and withdrew his hand in front of him, and then the moonlight looked closely, and saw the disgusting liquid stuck to the palm, and a slender needle-like thing, pierced into his palm.

The hot pain is coming from here.

The ghost soldier didn't know what he was killing for a while, and he just wanted to pull out the thing that was stabbed in the palm of his hand. But as soon as he thought of this, he was dazzled, his body swayed back and forth twice, and he fell to the ground with a pop and convulsed.

Xiaoyue's attention and gaze moved from the chattering Xiao Shizhu to the ghost soldier who fell to the ground. They saw the twitching ghost soldiers, who had already begun to bleed from their seven orifices, and their cheeks were full of hideousness.

"Poisonous insects. Before Xiaoyue could see what was happening, someone among the Huangquan ghost soldiers shouted in surprise.

Along with this, there were screams one after another, and exclamations in panic also rang out one after another. Among them, there was a louder and louder rustling sound, which made the scalps of the ghost soldiers of Huangquan tingle for a while.

Before they could recover their senses, they found that there was no longer yellow and brown dust on the ground around them, and all that remained was jet black.

Thousands of poisonous insects have come out of the soil and stone caves, spreading a sea of insects in the valley.

These poisonous insects seemed to be controlled by something, and they continued to surge like a surging wave, rushing towards Xiaoyue and their Huangquan ghost soldiers, and climbed on them one after another, either showing their poisonous needles and sting them fiercely, or opening their mouths with poisonous fangs to bite the ghost soldiers. Or it was forcibly drilled from their seven orifices, making these Huangquan ghost soldiers miserable.
