Chapter 8: The Beast of the Flood
"What, retreat?" I was surprised by this answer, but the expression on her face did not seem to be fake at all, her clear eyes, serious look, and the slightest question between her slightly frowning eyebrows made me wonder if my experience just now was illusory, was it really me?
After all, since coming to this world, several things have happened one after another that are beyond common sense!
"Brother Xiaotian, don't you have a fever, right? Sister Xiaoxiao has been in retreat for several months!" Seeing my suspicious expression, Bin Qing put her little hand on my forehead, very concerned.
"Have you been for a few months......" Although I was shocked by this answer, I still didn't want to believe it completely, so I turned back to the gate and asked, "Uncle Zhang, Uncle Li, did you see Xiao Xiao come back with me just now?"
They are the villagers who are responsible for guarding the gate of Dongfang Fort at this moment, and they were the ones who closed the gate in time after I came in just now, which blocked the attack of the beast tide behind.
"Poof-sss Without waiting for them to answer, Bin Qing couldn't help laughing, blinked her eyes slyly, looked like a curious baby, bit my ear and asked excitedly, "Brother Xiaotian told Xi Qing, do you like Sister Xiao very much! Don't worry, just say it secretly, and Xi Qing will keep it secret for you!"
I'm ashamed! I didn't expect that a wise and martial artist like me would be given a general by this little girl today, and I really care about it.
"Keep your head secret!Let's see the beast!" I clasped my fingers and tapped lightly on her little head, and immediately hugged Bin Qing and ran up the steps under the earthen wall.
"Hello young master, Miss Bin Qing is really getting more and more beautiful!"
"Brother Tian was really powerful just now, and he really deserves to be the young master of Tianzong Shenwu! My father has always told me to learn from you!"
"Xiaotian is back...... The scale of this beast tide is very large, just take a look at it later, but don't get too far ahead!"
......
The villagers I met along the way kept greeting me, and I responded warmly and politely to their heartfelt greetings. The whole process was so easy that it seemed to happen so often that I didn't even feel any sense of disobedience!
I had a vague premonition that I was unconsciously merging into the dream world at an increasing speed, and a mysterious energy was constantly merging with my memories in an unconscious state......
Ignoring all of this, judging from the various behaviors of the villagers I met in the face of me, it seems that I have an unusual identity in the Oriental Fort.
Think about it, after all, there are only three people who call the castle lord grandpa, me, my sister, and Bing Qing!
Among them, Xiao Xiao is the granddaughter of the castle owner's grandfather! And my relationship with him seems to be a little complicated, so let's not talk about it first.
As for the blue ...... I only remember three years ago, when the lord of the castle went out in a hurry, when he came back, he took a baby girl in his arms and arranged for the villagers to raise her.
There is no doubt that the baby girl is Bin Qing! Her identity and origin, the castle owner has never said, and it is still a secret.
As I thought about this, I looked back at the blue on my shoulder and saw that she was still in a very excited state, looking at me with a lot of fun, as if she had not woken up from the achievement of discovering my "little secret" just now.
Seeing her heartless and happy appearance, a sour feeling suddenly rose in my heart, but I still looked at her with what I thought was the warmest smile on my face, carefully maintaining her innocence.
In fact, Xi Qing always knew that she didn't belong here, but she didn't seem to care about her lonely life, and she was so happy all day long. Especially every time I meet me, I am so excited that I can forget everything, and I have no reason not to cherish this warmth.
When I finally ran to the top of the fort wall with her in my arms, I was deeply shocked by the scene that appeared in front of me.
I saw an endless tide of beasts coming from the sky, huge giant bears, blood pythons the thickness of buckets, strange horses wearing scale armor, and wild bulls with forked horns...... There are so many kinds that they can't be distinguished, and there are so many that they are too many to count!
In addition to these various beasts, there are countless birds in the sky, as well as insects of ridiculously large size...... They covered the sky and flooded the earth, and as far as the eye could see, there were fierce beasts!
Ten thousand beasts are galloping, a flock of birds are frightened, and a pair of red eyes show that their sanity has long been lost, and the beast tide formed by rushing together is like a flood that only occurs when the world is destroyed, and it is bound to destroy everything they encounter along the way......
At this moment, in their crazy eyes, they couldn't see the Dongfang Fort in front of them, which was so small that it could almost be ignored!
The so-called flood beast, that's about it!
It seems that the fort is broken, and people are dead, just today!
However, I firmly believe that none of this is possible!
From the moment I rushed into Dongfang Fort with my sister just now, the first wave of beast tides had already surged outside the gate. Then I had to wait a little longer to get to the wall because of the blue below, which was enough time for them to launch more than one wave of attacks.
However, when I looked around, I saw the surging tide of beasts outside, but I didn't see the slightest damage to Dongfang Fort. Not only that, but even the villagers guarding the wall mostly looked out with a kind of look at the dead beast, as if they were already surprised by the scene that was happening in front of them.
From time to time, they also commented on some rare strange beasts that occasionally appeared in the beast tide, and it was simply a picture of watching the excitement and not thinking much of a problem, which was completely different from the anxiety I showed when I was in danger down there just now!
Even the bows and arrows they had picked up when they were in a hurry to save me had already been thrown at their feet, and they seemed to have the confidence of a fascination with Dongfang Fort, and they didn't believe that these imposing beast tides outside could make any big waves.
At this time, the atmosphere of the scene was quite weird, you must know that although it looked like ten thousand beasts were galloping outside, and the momentum was shocking, but due to the particularity of Dongfang Fort, there was no sound from outside in the fort, even the arrow stacks on the wall were the same here.
That bad feeling is like watching a three-dimensional movie with excellent effect in a giant screen theater, obviously all kinds of high-cost special effects are made as if they don't need money, and the picture is beautiful and vivid, but there is no sound!
"Brother Xiaotian, look at the beast!" At this time, Xi Qing put one hand around my neck tightly, and the other hand anxiously pointed to the root of the outside wall, and I subconsciously followed her to look down.
