Chapter 236: Besieged

The one-horned creature circled around the blade below, and also tried to attack the mountain with its one-horned, but the huge size of the mountain was obviously not something they could shake, and after several fruitless attempts, they stopped and began to crouch on the ground, screaming at it.

"Let you be fierce, do you have the ability to come up?" Wang Banxian stood on the edge and yelled defiantly below, and the unicorn creature below made a commotion and began to attack the mountain peak again.

"Don't be shy, they can't come up, we can't go down, what's there to be proud of. "There should be no heart.

"Ahh

"Don't be afraid, Elder Wang, we can still fly from here to the opposite mountain and leave. Bai Miao said.

Wang Banxian was relieved at this time, but Ying Wuxin said: "We know, those one-horned creatures must also know that after dawn, most of them will occupy there." ”

Wang Banxian's face was completely mournful.

After Sun Xiaoman checked the three old men, he said, "At the moment, this place is only temporarily safe, and we still have to find a way to leave." ”

Li Zhengdao looked at Ying Wuxin and said, "What do you think of Brother Wuxin?"

Ying Wuxin said: "These three old men are like this now, what can we do if we leave, when they die on the road, we will be equal to a bamboo basket to draw water, and we will offend the unicorn creatures here, and in the future, there will be more people in this mountain city who will grow old and be sent out one by one." ”

"Then go ahead and look into it. Li Zhengdao said decisively.

Sun Xiaoman said: "Senior brother, if we continue to stay here, I have no way to detoxify, I can only watch them die, and at the moment we don't know what the poison in their bodies is, maybe we have been infected, and we need to find some medicine, treat and check it." ”

Li Zhengdao thought for a while and said, "Let Senior Sister Bai go with you, it's best to find useful herbs, and if you can't find them, you have to come back before dawn." ”

Sun Xiaoman bit his lip, and finally nodded in agreement, and flew towards the mountain peak on the other side with Bai Miaozhen, disappearing into the darkness.

"I'm going to hunt two wild boars. "There should be no heart.

"Wild boar, we don't need that much food, do we?" Li Zhengdao and Wang Banxian said strangely.

"It's not for you, it's for these brutes. Ying Wuxin finished speaking, and flew up, and disappeared into the dark night.

A quarter of an hour later, Ying Wuxin dragged two wild boars to the top of another mountain and shouted, "Brother Dao come here to help." ”

Li Zhengdao flew over, flew directly back to the blade of the sword with two wild boars, and threw them down.

Ying Wuxin followed, listened to the wind technique unfolding, listened to the movement below, and said happily after a while: "Eat, eat, they have already started to eat wild boars, maybe after they are full, they will not worry about these three old men." ”

Wang Banxian said: "Little Daoist, you are too optimistic, there are so many unicorns below, how can two wild boars be enough for them to eat." ”

Ying Wuxin said with a smile: "Then why don't you go down and treat them." ”

"Don't, little Daoist, I'm just joking. Wang Banxian retreated in panic.

After more than an hour, Sun Xiaoman and Bai Miaozhen came back, and they really brought back some herbs, and after some grinding, they were given to the three old men respectively, and at the same time some were also applied to other normal people.

"This way you can check your physical condition, and if there is poisoning or abnormality, you can know in advance. Sun Xiaoman said.

Ying Wuxin and Wang Banxian both gave a thumbs up in admiration.

Not long after, the first rays of dawn tore through the darkness of the night, scattering the light over the earth, and then the sun rose and shone infinitely.

By the light, several people looked down, and only then did they see that the one-horned creatures were actually bullheads, deer bodies, and some spots.

However, thinking that when these guys were going to eat people last night, they showed a mouth full of canine teeth, and everyone was a little more afraid of their strange appearance.

"What kind of creature is this, why is it so weird?" Wang Banxian looked at it, frowning and said.

This time, the other four shook their heads, unable to name the one-horned creature, and Ying Wuxin was no exception.

There are nearly 100 one-horned creatures below, and one is huge, much larger than a brown bear, comparable to an elephant, but their movements are very flexible, and they move quite fast.

With such a huge group of creatures, two wild boars were obviously not enough for them to eat, and there was nothing left that had been eaten, and there was only a pool of blood on the ground, reminding several people that they were all ferocious carnivores.

Ying Wuxin sighed: "If you want to feed them, a hundred wild boars are estimated to be not enough, the reason why I tried it is to see if they will be interested in leaving, because if you only consider it from the perspective of food, the weight of these two wild boars is definitely more than three old men, and they should be satisfied." ”

"Do you think these creatures can be that smart?" Sun Xiaoman rolled his eyes and said disdainfully.

"Some animals are smarter, and they must know the truth of equivalent exchange. Ying Wuxin blushed a little embarrassed, but still insisted on justifying.

Bai Miaozhen smiled, "Senior Brother Wuxin, it seems that these creatures are not as smart as you think, so what should we do next? Do we really have to wait on this all the time?"

"How long can they hold out?" Ying Wuxin said to the three old men.

Sun Xiaoman's eyes dimmed a little, and said: "The one with the deepest poisoning may not last for two days, Shi Fusheng's father, about three or five days, and the other one, at most five or six days." ”

Ying Wuxin's brows furrowed deeply again, and said: "I remember Shi Fusheng said that if the people who are almost fifty years old in the mountain city do not leave, when they reach the age of fifty, they will break the rules that have been passed down for thousands of years in their mountain city, and it will cause a huge disaster, not only will they suffer, but the people nearby will also be unlucky, do you think it is strange, why is there such a statement?

Sun Xiaoman said: "According to the pharmacology of poison, if the scope of poison is huge, then it must be extremely poisonous, if such poison is in the bodies of the three old men, we are so close to them now, even if it is a Taoist hero, it must have been tricked, but not now, it means that the poison in their bodies is also generally toxic, and they can only poison themselves, and it may not have much impact on the creatures in the outside world." ”

"Of course, this is only the current situation, maybe after death, there are new changes in their bodies, new toxins appear, it is difficult to say how harmful it is, but as far as the current situation is concerned, this probability is very small. ”

"If it's very small, why are the people of the mountain city so afraid that the people in their village will live past the age of fifty, if it is really poisonous, burn the corpse, or hide it in the mountains, you can eliminate the toxin, there is no need to give your father to the unicorn like this!" Ying Wuxin said, and suddenly his eyes lit up and said: "No, one of the three old men is so deeply poisoned, will those one-horned creatures not know?" They cooperated with the villagers in the mountain city to take away the almost fifty-year-old man and eat it, it is estimated that it has been tens of thousands of times, are they all okay? If something happens, no matter how stupid this creature is, it should know that this old man can't eat it. ”

Several people's faces changed, and Bai Miaozhen said: "But now these creatures are still eating people in this way, which means that they are not afraid of poison at all." ”

"Aren't you afraid of poison?" Ying Wuxin muttered: "But this creature also eats ordinary animals, which means that they can also eat other things, so this way of eating people is purely to eliminate the poisoned old man in the mountain city, will the beast have such a good kindness?"

Sun Xiaoman said: "I think it's better to investigate how the old man was poisoned, this is the most important thing, as long as it is found, there will definitely be other discoveries." ”

"I suspect that the old people were poisoned in the village, even a long time ago, or that the water that the villagers eat, or other things that are poisonous, and that this toxin will accumulate in the human body all the time, and by the time they are fifty years old, they will explode. ”

"Once this poison breaks out, it will cause some damage to the surrounding environment, for some reason, the villagers know that the unicorn can dissolve this toxin, so they put the old man who is about to be poisoned outside the door, let the unicorn take it away and eat it, so that it can not only protect the mountain village, but also let the unicorn provide a certain shelter to the mountain city, in ancient times, the living people and livestock were sacrificed, isn't it just to please the gods? ”

"Sacrifice?" Ying Wuxin was a little surprised, he had only heard about this kind of ritual briefly, and he didn't have much in-depth understanding.

Judging from what Sun Xiaoman said, there is really such a possibility.

"Then let's take them back to the mountain city together, I don't know how the people inside will react?" Li Zhengdao said with a solemn expression.

Ying Wuxin said: "If you really want to go back, maybe you can test it, such as putting the old man who is the most poisoned at the entrance of the mountain city, and see how the villagers choose?"

At this time, the one-horned creature under the peak had begun to move to the side of the mountain, apparently trying to reach the top of the opposite mountain.

"Without further ado, let's go at once. Li Zhengdao said decisively.

Bai Miaozhen cast a method to put the three old men in the prison of the crystal, and Li Zhengdao held them up, flying towards the top of the mountain opposite.

Seeing this, the unicorn creatures below let out a roar and began to run, rushing towards the mountain peak on one side, trying to stop a few people.

Then Ying Wuxin took Wang Banxian, Sun Xiaoman and Bai Miaozhen to fly away together, and joined Li Zhengdao and flew towards the road together.

Flying through the mountains and forests, the speed of the Dao Xia was much faster than that of the beasts, and even if he rested for a while, he was not chased by the unicorn creatures.

Soon in the line of sight in front, the buildings of the mountain city reappeared, several people stopped, and Li Zhengdao flew over with the most poisoned old man and placed it behind the boulder portal.

Li Zhengdao returned, and everyone hid in the dark to observe quietly, but the next scene made their eyes widen in surprise, and their faces were full of disbelief.
