Chapter 37: First encounter with a demon beast

The corpse came too suddenly, Tang Xin hurriedly used his left hand to protect Liu Yi behind him, and kicked out the burning corpse to the side.

"Senior brother, quickly retreat!"

Tang Xin saw a big guy in front of him, which made him have no time to take care of Liu Yi.

When Liu Yi heard the words of the senior brother, he retreated far back, only to see a huge centipede standing upright in front of Tang Xin.

Its upper body was facing Tang Xin, the centipede's feet were the thickness of human fingers, and half of its body was half a foot long, almost as tall as Tang Xin.

The huge body was pitch black and shiny, and the flames around it didn't seem to be able to affect it, and its dense feet and feet were swinging, and its eyes were staring at Tang Xin tightly.

Although the others were startled by this movement, they also quickly came back to their senses, and all picked up their swords and looked at the huge centipede in front of them vigilantly.

At this moment, no one dared to move, and he didn't know what action this centipede would make, Tang Xin clenched the long sword, and his palms were sweating a little nervously.

He stared at the big guy closely, and the others slowly walked towards him, while Wang Hong was beside him with a long sword in his hand, ready to strike at any time.

Suddenly, the centipede moved, and its huge body rushed straight towards Tang Xin, who didn't avoid it and went straight up.

The centipede was huge, so Tang Xin grabbed the hilt of the sword with both hands and stabbed straight at the centipede's mouth.

The centipede was very alert, it rushed over too fast and although it couldn't change direction, as soon as it saw that the tip of the sword was aimed at its weak point, it retracted its fangs into its mouth and used its strong sharp teeth to catch Tang Xin's sword.

The tip of the sword was against the fangs, Tang Xin didn't expect this big guy's body to be so hard, and his sword couldn't pierce it.

But he was pushed back step by step by the force of this centipede's collision, and after taking five steps back, Tang Xin's right foot stabilized his body, and his hands exerted force again before he stopped.

One person and one insect wrestled, and at this moment, the centipede's big mouth was facing Tang Xin's face, and his eyes saw the centipede's face clearly.

The centipede's two tentacles were a foot long, its eyes were completely pitch black, and the two huge fangs on the side of its mouth wrapped around it, and there was liquid oozing, and this face alone was enough to scare ordinary people.

When Wang Hong and the others saw the centipede's movements, they immediately raised their swords and rushed up, aiming at the centipede's body and slashing at it.

Wang Hong was the closest, two steps closer, and a sword slashed at the centipede, Wang Hong's body was strong, and he held the sword in his right hand and slashed the centipede's back in the middle.

But it didn't split into two knots with a single sword like a little centipede, but sparked like a slash on armor.

Wang Hong was shocked, the body of this animal was so hard, the big centipede naturally felt this sword, although it was not painful or itchy, but there were too many people, and it knew that it could not fight so many people.

It wasn't hard all over, it moved and no longer stalemate with Tang Xin, it withdrew its strength from Tang Xin's side and spared it.

Seeing the centipede walking away, the four junior disciples of the Taiji Sect gathered around Tang Xin and asked with concern, "Senior brother, are you okay?" ”

"What are you doing here, little junior brother!"

Tang Xin's face was frightened, seeing that the four junior brothers were coming, wouldn't Liu Yi be alone?

Tang Xin turned his head and looked back sharply, only to see that the centipede had climbed onto a roof and looked at Liu Yi deadly.

"Senior brother, run!"

Tang Xin roared vigorously, and the five of them ran towards Liu Yi with all their might, and the centipede rushed down in an instant.

A big mouth rushed straight at Liu Yi, and at this moment Liu Yi was unable to move, this centipede was bigger than him, and the momentum of rushing over made him fearful.

The fangs in Liu Yi's eyes were about to bite him, and Tang Xin's feet burst out with power and jumped high, kicking down the centipede's head with all his might.

With a "bang", Tang Xin kicked the centipede's head to the ground, and Liu Yi was pulled aside by the four senior brothers.

The four of them surrounded Liu Yi and protected him in the center, Tang Xin's strength was amazing, and he actually pressed the head of the big centipede.

The centipede swung its body wildly, but unfortunately it couldn't swing its head above this foot without its hands.

Tang Xin said vigorously: "You guys attack the joints of its body, it is the most vulnerable, and I can't suppress it for long." ”

As soon as they heard this, they rushed forward to pick up their weapons, and this time several captains did not use swords, but halberds.

Wang Hong saw that this centipede was really difficult to get close, and if he used a sword, he was afraid that he would be scratched by the centipede's sharp feet as soon as he got close, so they picked up the halberd and poked it at the centipede.

But the centipede writhed wildly, and a dozen halberds could not stab it at all, and the centipede saw that so many people surrounded it, so it pushed upward.

In the end, Tang Xin couldn't suppress the power of the centipede, and he was still able to break free when he jumped back.

The crowd harassed it with their halberds, making it unable to dodge and move, but they couldn't hurt it.

Wang Hong came to Tang Xin's side and said: "Brother Tang, there is an expert in my team, one knife is enough to kill this centipede, you are the best person among us, you and I will drag this long worm down, give him a chance to kill with a knife." ”

"Captain Wang Miao, your skills are by no means weaker than mine, and the double skills behind you should also be taken out for us to see. ”

"Hahahaha, okay. ”

After Wang Hong finished speaking, he stuck the halberd in his hand on the ground, pulled out two stainless steel copper maces from his back, and rushed towards the centipede.

The centipede looked around and saw a man approaching with both hands raised, this man was tall, and even if he was hit, it would not be comfortable.

So it moved quickly, knocked away the two people and escaped from the crowd, the centipede was in a hurry to run for its life, the strength was not great, and the two people were also wearing armor and were not injured.

The centipede sprang out of the crowd and swam away, bent on escaping.

"Where to go!"

A loud shout came from Tang Xin's mouth, and he chased after the centipede, and Tang Xin caught up with it with a few quick steps.

Tang Xin held the sword in his right hand, turned around and slashed at the centipede, and the centipede's sideways body was directly overturned by Tang Xin.

"Brother Wang, take advantage of now!"

Wang Hong turned around and said, "Zhao Heng, hurry up!"

"Look at me," I saw Zhao Heng holding a seven-foot-long *** in both hands, with a blade three feet long and a handle four feet long.

Zhao Heng clenched the long knife with both hands, the blade was glowing with silver light, he jumped up and aimed at the centipede with both hands, and slashed downward, and the centipede broke in two.

With a "pop," the corpse fell to the ground, green blood flowing from the two sections of the body.

Tang Xin saw that the centipede was no longer moving, he put away his sword and looked at Zhao Heng who was wiping his long knife.

Tang Xin said: "Brother Zhao, you are very sharp." ”

Zhao Heng wiped the blood on the knife, turned the blade of the knife with his right hand and said to Tang Xin: "This knife is exclusively for the elite infantry in our army, and it is made of stainless steel, and it is like cutting melons. ”

"This is his baby," Wang Hong said as he walked over and patted Zhao Heng on the shoulder.

Tang Xin said: "Such a sharp weapon, without Brother Zhao's strength, he can't use such power." ”

"Hahaha, Brother Tang is right, don't say anything else, let's just say that the men in our army are all good hands. ”

Tang Xin smiled and said: "What Captain Wang said is very true, forgive me for missing me, I'll go and see if my little junior brother is okay." ”

Tang Xin looked at Liu Yi, his face was a little ugly, as if he was frightened by the centipede attack just now.

Tang Xin said: "Senior brother doesn't have to be frustrated, the first time you faced this kind of thing, your performance was already very good." ”

Tang Xin touched Liu Yi's head and comforted him as he spoke, the scared emotions of the child in front of him were exactly the same as when he first encountered this kind of thing, so he understood Liu Yi.

On the other side, Wang Hong asked his men to search various houses to see if there were any living people.

No one spoke for a long time, presumably there was indeed no living person here, so Wang Hong asked his men to gather.

Wang Hong was just about to speak, when suddenly a loud noise came from a nearby house, and everyone followed the sound to see a huge black wild boar sweeping down the house.

It had its head held high, and on its two huge fangs hung a soldier, who did not know whether he was alive or dead.

Seeing this black-haired wild boar that was taller than a human, Wang Hong took out his double mace and roared loudly: "There are also demon clans!"

Everyone gathered together in an instant, Tang Xin pulled out his long sword and protected Liu Yi behind him The other soldiers clenched their halberds and stared at the wild boar.

Wang Hong's voice was loud, and the wild boar also noticed it, and its huge eyes looked at Tang Xin and the others.

Slowly turning it around, it flicked its head hard to the right, tossing aside the soldier stuck in its fangs.

Everyone looked at the huge wild boar in front of them, the fangs were half an arm's length, the body was strong, the nostrils were panting, and the eyes were full of hostility, staring at Wang Hong and the others.

At this moment, no one dared to move, everyone didn't know what the wild boar would do, Wang Hong, as the team leader, immediately made a decision.

He whispered to the people around him, "Everyone is slowly dispersed, if we gather together and be hit by this beast, we will not be able to parry, the archers will be on the roof, and the others will follow me to attract the attention of the wild boars." ”

After saying that, everyone slowly moved backwards, and strangely enough, the wild boar just stared at them silently without making any movement.

Suddenly, "bang, bang" two loud noises came out, and just behind the boar, everyone saw that behind the boar, two more houses collapsed, and two huge creatures came out of the dust.

When the dust cleared, everyone was troubled to see the true faces of the two creatures, and they were the two beasts that looked exactly like the boar in front of them.

As soon as Wang Hong saw them, these two came out and shouted, "Disperse quickly!"

Everyone quickly scattered, Tang Xin took Liu Yi to a corner of the wall, and said to him: "Senior brother, you are here, lean against the wall and don't move." ”

Liu Yi naturally also saw the power of this wild boar, he nodded vigorously, Tang Xin said to a junior brother beside him: "Guangzhi, you are optimistic about the little junior brother here, and I will deal with the wild boar with others." ”

Hearing this, Guangzhi nodded and protected Liu Yi behind him, Tang Xin slowly retreated with Wang Hong and the others, his eyes firmly fixed on the movement of the three big wild boars in front of him.

The other four people jumped on the roof of the house with a light step, lowered their bodies and took out their bows and arrows behind their backs, and set up arrows to aim at the wild boar's whole body.

Wang Hong also replaced the copper mace in his hand with an iron halberd, and the three wild boars naturally watched their movements.

The hooves under them were gouging back, and their mouths were panting, ready to move.

Tang Xin lowered his body and said to everyone: "Everyone, please listen, although this beast is huge, it has a single way of attacking, and it will only rampage, just wait for them to rush over, find the right time to dodge, and then wait for the opportunity to counterattack." ”

As soon as Tang Xin's words fell, the three beasts on the opposite side couldn't help but rush over, and the posture shook the mountain, and the three mountain-like beasts lowered their fangs and ran fast.

Everyone had already put on a posture, and the wild boar rushed in front of them, and everyone flashed sideways to avoid the boar's collision.

But there were three wild boars, dodging one and two more behind them, and a few of them were picked up in the air and thrown to the side before they could dodge.

After Wang Hong dodged the wild boar's collision, he saw that its entire body was exposed in front of his eyes, and he felt that it was an opportunity.

He stabbed it with a halberd, and this halberd hit the boar's stomach, but it didn't stab in, only an inch from the tip of the spear.

Of course, the wild boar did not stop at all, and Wang Hong was directly led forward by the huge power of the wild boar.

Wang Hong was athletic, he couldn't be carried by the wild boar, but he turned over with the help of the halberd and jumped directly onto the back of the wild boar.
