Chapter 156: Escape
Reading books is a draining thing most of the time, even if the physically strong demon clan has been reading for a long time, they will feel a little tired mentally, let alone Shen Shi. He turned the last page of the scroll in his hand, tossed it aside, then reached out and rubbed his brow, stood up, stretched, turned his neck again, and walked back and forth in the secret room several times.
When his gaze swept over the hill-like pile of books in the open space of the stone room, he couldn't help but smile slightly bitterly, in the past few days, in addition to insisting on cultivating the Heavenly Immortal Mantra twice a day, he had spent almost all the rest of his time reading, just reading diligently and hungrily like him, but it still took a long time to finish reading these hundreds of books.
In total, less than half of the books he had read had so far been in this hill of books, and even among the books he had read, many of them were either mediocre or repetitive, or he was not interested at all, or the things contained in them were strange and strange that he could not understand at all, so he simply flipped through them and threw them away.
However, there are also many valuable books, such as some historical, geographical, and legendary books, it seems that the predecessor of the Black Phoenix Demon Clan who collected the scrolls at the beginning had a wide range of interests, and there are even many of them outside the introduction of the demon world, and there are rough records of the knowledge of other realms of Hongmeng, many of which Shen Shi did not know before, you know, although he likes to read since he was a child, but since he entered the Lingxiao Sect Mountain Gate and entered Qingyu Island at the age of twelve, he basically has no chance to read well.
I can't imagine that there will be such a rare opportunity to read books here in the demon world now, but it seems that it is really not easy to read all the books here.
It would be nice if there was a kind of Qiankun bag made by the human race! At this time, Shen Shi thought with some yearning in his heart, if there was such a magical container, he could carry many scrolls with him, and he would be able to read them at any time.
He pondered for a moment, then shook his head suddenly, thinking to himself how he had been thinking about things that were not in sight, and had put these idle thoughts aside. He was hesitating whether to find a few more books to read, or to get out of this secret room first, even if he walked around twice outside the entrance of the cave, and it was good to breathe, he was locked up here for six days in a row, even if he liked to read the most on weekdays, he felt a little unbearable now.
While he was pondering, he swept his eyes to the side, and saw that the little black pig was still sleeping soundly on the ground, Shen Shi's brows furrowed slightly, in the past few days, although most of his thoughts were on cultivating the Heavenly Immortal Mantra and reading books, but after a few days, he still noticed that something seemed to be wrong with the little black pig.
This pig, these days, seems to like sleeping too much.
It sleeps almost all the time, day and night, just lying there, and even the thing that it is most enthusiastic about waking up and eating on weekdays seems to be getting less and less, and most of the food that Shen Shi gives it is the meat that feeds it on weekdays, and it seems to be less and less interested, and it eats less and less.
But if there are other problems, the little black pig doesn't look like it, it is a very special snooze, and it will fall asleep at every turn, and it will sleep in the dark.
Shen Shi was hesitating whether to wake up the little pig, and when he went outside with it, he suddenly felt a tremor from the solid ground under his feet, although it was not as violent as the mountain shaking, but the shaking feeling was still very clear, and there was no possibility that people thought it was an illusion.
Shen Shiden was stunned, his face changed slightly, but before he could react, a low but extremely terrifying loud noise came from a distant place, this time, the entire stone room hidden in the belly of the mountain actually began to shake in an instant, and several cracks cracked on the hard stone wall above his head, and the fine sand and stones began to fall downward like a light rain.
At this time, Shen Shi still didn't understand that something must be wrong, something big must have happened outside. His face changed drastically, and he didn't hesitate, and he turned around like a secret passage exit. Obviously, this secret room can't stay, otherwise if this inexplicable earthquake becomes more violent, it will directly collapse the passage, and he will be buried here alive in a daze.
Just as he rushed to the passage of the secret room, he saw that the heavy stone door in front of him, which was originally closed, was suddenly pushed open with great difficulty, revealing an old monkey face at the door. Shen Shi stopped in astonishment, his eyes widened, and said, "Old monkey, why are you here, and what's going on outside?"
The old white monkey did not answer Shen Shi's question, at this moment, the expression on his face was already anxious, and even faintly a little panic and despair, but he was finally able to maintain his composure, as soon as he saw Shen Shi, he immediately beckoned to him and shouted: "Stone come quickly, let's go immediately!"
Looking at the anxious expression of the old white monkey, Shen Shi only felt a tightness in his heart, and a trace of extreme uneasiness passed, and he immediately rushed over, but after running a few steps, he suddenly remembered Xiao Hei who was sleeping next to him, and hurriedly picked up the stupid pig who was sleeping and delicious with one hand, and then supported the old white monkey who couldn't walk fast because of his age with the other hand, and strode quickly towards the outside of the mountain wall.
The two rushed all the way out of the mountain wall, and Shen Shi saw a tall figure standing outside at first glance, it was a stone pig with a hideous face holding a sharp axe, and at the same time there were several green snake guards standing beside him, but everyone had a nervous and anxious look on their faces, and at the same time, he was like a study that was originally extremely secluded, and suddenly fell into a boundless noisy and wild world, huge and ubiquitous like a stormy wave of floods, instantly surging from all directions, completely engulfing him.
Between heaven and earth, there was a violent storm, and in the blink of an eye, he was drenched all over.
Shen Shi's face changed instantly, and the premonition in his heart became more and more bad, with a cold face, he jumped on the high wall next to him in a few steps, and looked towards the city in the distance.
Fengming City, a city that had just experienced a war catastrophe and was scarred, finally calmed down a little, and at this moment, in front of Shen Shi's eyes, it fell into a hellish scene again.
The flames danced wildly, burning countless sparks into the sky like fire dragons, and no amount of rain could stop those terrible fires. Everywhere there were chaotic and murderous figures, fierce roars, screams, screams, screams, knives and axes, and even the terrifying sight of flesh being cut and blood spilled, once again filling every corner and sweeping the city.
At his feet, the old white monkey shouted, "Come down, let's go quickly." ”
Shen Shi jumped down, and couldn't help but feel a little happy in his heart, fortunately at this critical juncture, there was still the old white monkey who remembered himself, otherwise he would really be in the secret room where he didn't know the outside world at all, and he was afraid that he was destined to have no good end.
Grabbing the old white monkey at the moment, Shen Shi gritted his teeth and said, "Did the black phoenix come back, how could they attack the city?"
The old white monkey shook his hand, his expression was urgent, but he didn't mean to answer his questions at all, he just pulled Shen Shi hard, and at the same time shouted to the green snake guards who followed behind: "Come on, run out of this mansion first!"
Shen Shi was pulled by him and ran a few steps, stunned in his heart, and said in a low voice: "What's the matter, shouldn't we help Yulin Niangniang kill the enemy?"
The old white monkey had a trace of bitterness and misery on his face, shook his head and said: "It's useless, the city gate has been broken, Yulin Niangniang is also entangled, and ......" He trembled and pointed to the sky dome of Fengming City, Shen Shi looked in his direction, and suddenly felt a shock in his heart, only to see that it was just like the scene of the demon battle that decided the fate of Black Prison Mountain a few days ago, a snake and a phoenix, soaring above the nine heavens, with a body like a mountain like a mountain, and it was turning the world upside down.
However, unlike a few days ago, in the boundless dark clouds and wind, in the huge figures of the two powerful earth demons higher and farther away, there was a looming behemoth in the black sea of clouds, looking from a distance, it seemed to be like a bright feather white crane that looked at the sky and the earth, staring coldly at the battle below, and at the same time finding a hole from time to time would instantly shoot, and every time it happened to aim at the space of the huge snake body of the Azure Snake Demon.
This decisive battle is no longer an equal situation, but Yulin is completely in a desperate situation of being passively beaten, even if she is extremely angry and roars again and again, but even if it reaches the realm of such a strong demon, strength will eventually decide everything.
And this scene, in the eyes of the countless demon clans who are fighting in Fengming City on the ground, even if most of them are just ordinary low-level demon clans, but at this moment, they can still quickly see the direction of this decisive battle - the Azure Snake Demon Clan, I am afraid that they will be powerless.
The shouting of killing was like a huge wave, and in an instant, it was another wave of overpower, rolling in, surging, and the bloody murderous aura overflowed this city in the midst of war as if it was about to boil.
Shen Shi's face became a little pale, gritted his teeth, turned his head to look at the old white monkey, and saw that the old white monkey was also extremely ugly, and at this time he also looked at Shen Shi fixedly, and then slowly shook his head.
Shen Shichang let out a breath, stomped his foot, and said fiercely: "Let's go!"
Saying that, he grabbed the old white monkey, and greeted the stone pig again, and the stone pig immediately ran outside behind the two of them with a giant axe, and the green snake guards followed the old white monkey from the beginning for some reason, I don't know if it was met before, and they followed blindly like a straw in a daze.
A group of six or seven demon clans, rushed out of the courtyard and was about to run outside, suddenly only to hear the sound of shouting and killing around suddenly rising, the footsteps roared, manic and noisy, murderous like boiling, Shen Shi's heart sank, immediately stopped, and by the way, the old white monkey also stopped, and the stone pig has always looked at the two of them, and then stood still. And the green snake guards behind them didn't care so much, they seemed to be very dissatisfied with the old white monkey from the beginning for some reason not to run away first, but ran to this remote corner to save Shen Shi, a ghost and witch that everyone hates, at this moment, seeing that the way to escape is in front of them, where do you care so much, the sizzling sound of the snake letter is swallowed, and desperately rushed past the two of them.
The old white monkey was stunned and asked, "Why stop, they ......?"
Before the words fell, I only heard the sound of whistling in front of me in an instant, and the shadow of the sword light and axe covered the sky all over the world, and in the blink of an eye, blood flew sideways and severed limbs flew up, and three green snake guards fell, and at the same time, a large group of soldiers of the Black Phoenix Demon Clan appeared in front of them, blocking their way.
Looking at the fierce and hideous faces like evil ghosts, the murderous aura seemed to be the only demon beast left with the instinctive desire to kill, and the old white monkey, who had not been on the battlefield for a long time, only felt that the two old legs were instantly weak, and almost sat on the ground.
Although Shen Shi's face was also gloomy, he had been forced to participate in tribal warfare many times in the past three years, and he struggled in blood and fire, far calmer than the old white monkey.
Pushed the old white monkey to the stone pig, and then Shen Shi took the stone pig to turn his head and run, the stone pig's incomparably strong body strength played an extremely powerful role at this moment, even if there was one more old white monkey, he also regarded it as if he had nothing, and without saying a word, he turned his head and followed Shen Shi to rush back, and no longer ignored the wild roars behind him.
After a few tosses, Shen Shi jumped onto the courtyard in the other direction, but after only a few steps outward, he was forced to retreat with red eyes, and a wave of black phoenix demon troops also rushed over in that direction.
After several attempts to escape in a row, but the results were almost the same, Shen Shi was a little desperate to find that he had been surrounded by enemies from all sides. The war in Fengming City is still going on, but it is obvious that the Black Phoenix Demon Clan is finally a shame and has greatly gained the upper hand, and this mansion is the mansion where the Black Phoenix Clan has lived for generations, and it is an important target of the Black Phoenix Demon Army, and it is a terrifying number of demon soldiers sent.
Rushing left and right, struggling desperately, but every time Shen Shi was forced back, there were already several bloody wounds on his body, and the same was true for the stone pig beside him, the huge sharp axe in his hand was already bloody, and he killed a lot of black phoenix demon clans along the way, but he also suffered a lot of injuries, this is still his natal supernatural ability is a well-known thick armor talent that is good at defense, otherwise, it is the waves of siege just now, he and the old white monkey are afraid that they will be divided by the enemy.
Panting heavily, panicked like a lost dog fleeing, suddenly, Shen Shi found that he was taking the stone pig and the old white monkey, and retreated to the front of the mountain wall where the secret room was hidden in the threat and killing of enemies from all directions.
There is a dead end in front of us.
Shen Shi glanced back at the old white monkey, the two of them were relatively silent, and their faces were full of despair.
