Chapter 334: Evil Spirits
Half a day after Qu Xiaotian left, a scout came to report that thousands of Nanxiang Pavilion disciples had appeared in the southeast of Nanfeng City, all dressed in black robes to cover their faces, looking sneaky.
Hearing the news, a group of generals led by Chu Ning immediately came to their senses, and Chu Ning said excitedly: "I was going to look for them, but I didn't expect to send them to the door, why don't I go and meet them first, you straighten out your troops and horses, and simply take this opportunity to kill all the way to Yanling Mountain." ”
As soon as such a plan was announced, there were constant voices of echoing, and many generals immediately stood up and fought for the position of vanguard officer.
The army was ready, and such a situation was indeed a godsend, but while everyone was arguing for the position of the vanguard, Jia Yuanshu fell into thought.
"I don't know what's going on in the mountains in the north, but I always think it's better to wait for Xiaotian to come back and make plans. ”
Seeing Jia Yuan's wandering, Chu Ning immediately lost his patience and said to Jia Yuanju: "When the matter comes, why did you little Taoist retreat, now there are several times the enemy's strength, and Brother Lu also said that those monsters have also fled in all directions, are you still afraid of their remnants of thousands of people?"
Zhao Xuanyan thought for a while and said: "The mountains and forests around the Southern Wilderness are vast, if the other party deliberately hides, it will take a lot of effort to find it, and the current situation is indeed a good opportunity." ”
While everyone was discussing, Yun Yanze was also constantly thinking about something, and finally said: "You don't have to argue anymore, after being stationed in Nanfeng City, the materials, grain and grass have been relatively scarce, and now there are 100,000 reinforcements coming, and the grain and grass in the city may not be able to support it for too long, plus there are frequent problems with the transportation of grain and grass in the north these days, it is true that we can't wait any longer, since the whole army is ready, I will personally lead 30,000 horses to meet the other party for a while." ”
In the end, Yun Yanze made up his mind, but everyone was not far behind in sending troops, and under the strong request, Nie Xingfeng, Zhao Xuanyan, Chu Ning and others all followed Yun Yanze to fight together, and only Jia Yuanshu was left in the rear of Nanfeng City.
After everyone left, Jia Yuan's face was worried, Lu Mingfei had already seen his abnormality, so he asked, "Brother Jia, is there anything else you don't worry about?
Jia Yuanshu nodded and shook his head, and said with some hesitation: "I can't tell you the specifics, but I'm afraid this battle is not as smooth as expected, have you forgotten Marquis Yin? I haven't seen him show up yet, and I don't know ......."
"Then why didn't you stop them?"
Without waiting for Jia Yuanshu to finish speaking, Lu Mingfei asked eagerly, Jia Yuanzhu said with a wry smile: "What Yun Dashuai said is also reasonable, now that the two sides have been holding each other for a long time, it is indeed not easy to drag it out any longer, and if it drags on for a long time, it will inevitably delay the regeneration of the fighter plane. ”
Qu Xiaotian took dozens of people to the mountains and immediately searched in the nearby mountains, this area is mostly stone mountains, the mountains are barren and it is not easy to hide and hide, and they have found dozens of miles in a radius, and they have not even let go of any cave, but they have never found anything.
Originally thought that he would encounter thieves who looted grain and grass vehicles, and a fight was indispensable, Qu Xiaotian volunteered to come, but he didn't expect that after arriving, it was very different from his expectations, and he was deserted, and he didn't even see a single figure, which really made him not know what to do.
After wandering around the place where the grain and grass were robbed for a while, Qu Xiaotian sat helplessly on a big rock and kept looking.
"This mountain is open to the sky, could it be that the people who fell from the sky robbed the grain and grass?"
Li Qing leaned over and said, "Since you can't find any clues, it's better to try according to what the little Taoist said." ”
Qu Xiaotian remembered that Jia Yuanshu had explained when he was leaving, so he nodded and immediately led everyone towards a small town in the northwest.
When they arrived in the town, they gathered six wagons, filled them with hay, disguised as a procession to transport grain and grass, and hurried in the direction of the city of South Wind, and when they came to the mountainous area to the north, it was already a day later at night.
In order to lure out the carjacking thieves, after passing through the mountainous area, Qu Xiaotian deliberately let the team go much slower, but it was still calm and impermanent along the way, without the slightest wind and grass.
Seeing that he was already approaching the place where the last convoy was robbed, Qu Xiaotian ordered everyone to stop under the pretext of resting, and sat on the side of the carriage loudly, but secretly investigated the wind and grass nearby.
After listening quietly for a while, I really only heard the sound of the wind and grass, and there was no other sound, and the silence in the mountains was a little unusual.
A soldier leaned over to Qu Xiaotian's side and whispered: "Master Qu, in my opinion, the first few robberies may have been caused by bandits from somewhere, after all, these bandits are not large in scale, and their courage is limited. ”
Qu Xiaotian had never had any ideas, and there was some truth in what he said, so he nodded casually, looked around for a while, and still couldn't see anything abnormal, so he planned to order everyone to rush towards Nanfeng City.
"Let's go back first. ”
Qu Xiaotian commanded, and several soldiers beside him obviously didn't want to stay here and delay their efforts, so they hurriedly responded when they heard this, and immediately jumped off the carriage and prepared to hurry.
As soon as the soldier landed on the ground, he felt that he had stepped on something, as if he was moving, and he subconsciously looked down, which really startled him.
It turned out to be an arm sticking out of the ground beneath his feet, and before he could scream, it was already grabbing his ankle.
"Ah, there are ghosts!"
The man didn't care too much, and shouted in fright, but before the shout fell, he saw that the palm of his hand was violently forced, and several fingers like sharp blades were directly embedded in his calves.
While screaming, he kept struggling, but he couldn't shake off the arm at all, and then he saw that the ground where the arm was sticking out suddenly cracked inch by inch, and the next moment a person directly drilled out of it.
The man was dressed in a black robe, and his long face was hidden under the black robe, eerie and terrifying, like a demon crawling out of hell.
The front and back were only direct in an instant, Qu Xiaotian immediately reacted, and with a shot of the overlord gun, he stabbed at the "evil ghost" without hesitation, this shot was extremely powerful, and directly pierced the opponent.
I was about to breathe a sigh of relief, but I found that the "evil ghost" was indifferent after being stabbed by the overlord's spear, and the hand that grabbed the calf did not lose any strength, ignoring the spear inserted in the chest, and pounced directly on the man, biting on the soldier's calf, and I don't know whether to tear it with my hand or bite with my mouth, and pulled one of my calves off alive.
Everyone was frightened by this terrifying scene, Qu Xiaotian hurriedly pulled back the overlord gun and slammed it towards the head of the "evil ghost".
In the face of the overlord gun, the "evil ghost" did not dodge, and directly met it with his head, after a collision, his head was directly smashed behind by the overlord gun, if he was a human, he would definitely be killed on the spot, but the "evil ghost" was not affected at all, and the head that had been hanging behind his back quickly stretched back.
Except for the black robe, everyone saw the face of the "evil ghost" clearly, it was a human face, but it was blue and black, and a pair of eyes were gloomy and dull, and there was no vitality at all.
Maybe others don't know whether they are encountering people or ghosts, but Qu Xiaotian is no stranger to this, when he and Lu Ming flew to South Wind City before, they accidentally encountered a similar "evil ghost" who was mixed in a car transporting vegetables and brought into the city.
Met again, Qu Xiaotian didn't dare to take it lightly, the "evil ghost" just straightened his head, and then pounced on Qu Xiaotian in front of him, Qu Xiaotian also did not hesitate, the overlord spear stabbed the opponent's head again.
Before the tip of the gun arrived, it had already brought fire, and this shot condensed all of Qu Xiaotian's mysterious energy, without the slightest reservation, it was enough to open the mountain and crack the stone, and a dull sound came out, and the overlord gun had hit the door of the person's face, directly causing the opponent's head to explode.
Without waiting for the other party to react, Qu Xiaotian swept in with another shot, and knocked the headless "evil ghost" out again.
"Cut off his hands and feet!"
After the "evil ghost" fell to the ground, Qu Xiaotian still didn't dare to relax, he knew very well that even if he had no head, this thing still had terrible lethality.
In the blink of an eye, several people surrounded and cut the "evil ghost" into pieces, but before everyone had time to breathe, they saw that many places on the ground suddenly cracked again, and big black hands continued to stretch out from it.
