Volume 1: The Beginning of Yunxuan Chapter 7: The Demon Beast Strikes
All this happens in a blink of an eye.
That bloody mouth seemed to be dissolved by mist, and it came so abruptly that even the two demon masters, Liu Changfeng and Fang Qi, hadn't discovered the existence of that thing before.
The massive mouth was two people tall when it opened, flanked by hundreds of thin knife-sharp teeth, spurting with the smell of blood. The giant bite easily tore apart the bodies of three people, as light as biting tofu in pieces.
At that moment, everyone was dumbfounded.
Behind the giant mouth, the mist was followed by a huge body that was ten feet long, a snake-like body.
This is the word that comes to everyone's mind at this moment.
The monster beast came from the mist, with a slender body covered in gray-white scales like a snake. The sides of the body and the tail have fleshy fins, the head resembles a snake and a dragon, the mouth is sharp, and the mouth is filled with several rows of barbed teeth.
In this team, there are few people who have really seen demon beasts. When the monsters appeared, most of them froze in place.
Monster ...... It's a demon beast! Night's pretty face was bloodless, and there was only one thought left in her mind.
Long Wenmu looked at the mutilated bodies, and his brows were already furrowed.
The monster beast did not stop when it appeared, its huge body suspended in the air, and although it had no wings, it could swim in the fog.
The huge tail swept away, and the sand and gravel splashed. The nearest few people screamed and wanted to escape, but they were directly swept away, with a loud bang, watching those figures fly out, and there was no movement after landing.
Demon beasts, the power of extraordinary people can contend with it, this is a saying that has been handed down since ancient times.
In an instant, screams and exclamations rang out.
This fierce beast that is feared by the world has really appeared.
Most of the people present had never seen a demon beast, so the moment they saw this behemoth with their own eyes, all the luck, all the illusions, were torn apart in an instant, and all that was left was the dazzling blood.
Exclaimed, ran.
The demon beast swooped, with a huge mouth, and several people were swallowed by the figure, and there was no room for resistance.
Flesh was torn, bones were gnawed, and the voices were piercing.
Even though the Liu family's guards have armor on their bodies, how can ordinary armor resist demon beasts.
The crowd was in chaos, and hysterical shouts were incessant.
The demon beast attacked the crowd without hindrance, and in the blink of an eye, there were a few fewer people in the team.
In front of the demon beasts, ordinary people don't want to resist, and even escaping is an extravagant hope.
"Less...... Master...... Goblin...... Demon beast ......" Ye Qian's face turned pale, and he couldn't speak.
"Don't move!" Long Wenmu shouted.
The night was immediately still, and he didn't even dare to breathe for a while.
The demon beast is wreaking havoc not far away, with the speed of the demon beast, you can't escape if you want to, and the night is only praying that the demon beast will not see you.
This is a demon beast, which is a thousand times more terrifying than the rumors I heard before. If it weren't for Long Wenmu on the side, the girl felt that she might faint on the spot.
The first time I saw a demon beast, it was also the first time I saw such a bloody scene.
Human lives are cut off at will like dead grass on the side of the road.
Long Wenmu was solemn, his body was half-arched in front of Ye Qi, and he also lowered his breathing.
The shock brought by the demon beast made people in a trance, but Long Wenmu was quite calm at the moment, and quietly moved to the corner with the protection of the night barrier.
"Young Master...... It...... It went that way. Nightshade said with horror.
The monster pounced on a certain place, and that happened to be where the cow butcher was.
The cow butcher, a man with thick shoulders and a round waist, fell to the ground in fright at this moment, and his mouth was a sharp shout, probably unintentionally.
No matter how burly he is, in front of such a huge demon beast, it will be enough to break through the sky.
But I don't know if it's an accident, when the demon beast rushed towards the cow butcher, when it was still a few steps away from the cow butcher, it suddenly paused, and then rushed to the side with its body sideways.
The cow butcher sat on the ground dumbfounded, not glad for the rest of his life at all, only the fear that had not yet dissipated, and there was not even a trace of blood on his lips.
After the initial commotion, someone in the team finally came to their senses.
"Everyone, don't mess around!" Liu Changfeng yelled.
In the end, it is a demon master, who can calm down extremely quickly.
Slammed on the horse's pedals, jumped out of the horse's back, like a roc falling from the sky, and then pushed his palm towards the demon beast.
The power of being a demon master was completely revealed at that moment, and the palm wind was overwhelming.
At the same time that Liu Changfeng was urging his strength, everyone could see that some kind of light seemed to appear around his body, and the faint light gathered in the palm of his hand, and then it was fiercely imprinted on the body of the demon beast.
With a heavy explosion, the huge demon beast like a small mountain was directly blasted out by a meat palm.
Liu Changfeng landed slowly, and his palms trembled a little.
The demon beast was reckless before, and it was injured in Liu Changfeng's hands, hovered in the air twice, and turned its head to drill towards a higher place.
"Evil beast, don't want to escape!" Liu Changfeng was windy at his feet and chased towards the demon beast.
Fang Qi glanced back at the crowd and admonished in a certain direction: "A few of you, transport the carriage to a high place, keep up with the adults, move quickly." ”
With that, he set out to catch up.
Liu Changfeng and Fang Qi chased the demon beast away one after the other, and some people who originally belonged to the Liu family also hurriedly drove the carriage to a high place, leaving only a group of people who were still in panic.
The wind was still whirring, and the sound of unsubdued breathing still echoed in the crowd.
After a long time.
"Young Master...... Demon Beast ......"
"Rest assured, it's far away. Long Wenmu looked at the direction in which the demon beast was leaving, let out a long breath, and patted Ye Qi's head casually.
Nightshade swallowed her saliva, and finally calmed down.
That's a monster, and it's even more terrifying than rumored.
"Young Master, that ...... Could it be a celestial demon?" asked Ye Qi in a low voice.
"What do you think, it's just a little demon, you are a demon on the side of the road, you can see it if you want to?"
Nightshade realized that she might be making a joke, and her pale face flushed.
Even the little demon is so terrifying, but what about the big demon? What about the earth demon? and even what should the legendary heavenly demon look like?
Liu Changfeng and Fang Qi chased the demon beast in the direction of the top of the mountain, and the Liu family guards also followed, as for the rest of these people, after experiencing this experience, I am afraid that they will not have the courage to move forward anymore.
After looking around for a while, seeing that there was no danger around, Long Wenmu pulled Ye Qi and walked towards the cow butcher.
The burly man was now slumped on the ground, looking like his spine had been sucked away.
"Brother Niu is fine. Long Wenmu stretched out his hand to pull him up and patted him on the shoulder, giving the limp strong man a little strength to stand.
"I ...... Am I not dead?" the cow butcher's eyes gradually changed, and he touched his face.
"Brother Niu, you are living well, how can you say that you will die. Long Wenmu smiled lightly.
The demon beast was driven away by Liu Changfeng and the others, and it was safe here for the time being.
It took the cow butcher several breaths to calm down, and then he remembered what had just happened.
He saw the demon beast rushing towards him with his own eyes, and in the short time he came into contact with the demon beast, he was equivalent to wandering around the ghost gate.
Thinking about some details just now, he was suddenly stunned, and turned his head to look at Long Wenmu a little weirdly: "The medicine you smeared on me......"
Something, he wasn't going to be mistaken.
He was sure that the beast had targeted him, but seemed to shy away from him a moment before baring its fangs at him.
Whether it's an accident or not, he can't say for sure, if it's not an accident, maybe it's really related to that medicine.
Could it be ...... Does that thing really work?
The cow butcher was still thinking about it, and Long Wenmu had already stuffed the previous jade bottle into his hand.
He whispered in his ear, "As a fellow citizen of White Frost City, I can't survive alone. Brother Niu knew the effect of this thing, and several other villagers bothered Brother Niu to take care of it. ”
"You ......" The cow butcher grabbed the jade bottle in his hand, feeling as heavy as a thousand pounds, if this is really a medicine that can drive away demon beasts, then this is a terrible thing.
"There's not much to do, don't stretch it out. Long Wenmu stopped him without waiting for him to speak, "I am not familiar with the other people from White Frost City, so it is inconvenient for me to come forward, I believe that Brother Niu knows what to do." This bottle of medicine is enough for a few of you, it is not advisable to stay here for a long time, and on the road behind, I don't think you should go, Brother Niu. Now that the Liu family is gone, let's go down the mountain quickly. ”
Long Wenmu said very casually, always with a light smile, but the cow butcher knew what it meant.
Long Wenmu told him to leave quickly, demon beasts are infested, if they continue to stay in this place, they will only be more auspicious, and the people of the Liu family will not care about their life or death. I haven't had a chance to leave before, and if I want to escape, now is the best time.
Long Wenmu was reminding him not to miss this opportunity.
If it was before, it might still be dangerous for them to act alone, but Long Wenmu gave them this bottle of medicine...... If this medicine really works, maybe it will keep them safe.
Compared to the glory and wealth, compared to the promise of the Liu family, it is the key to be able to save a life now.
"What about you?" the cow butcher asked hesitantly, looking at Long Wenmu's eyes no longer as disdainful as before.
The corners of Long Wenmu's mouth turned upwards and patted him on the shoulder: "You go first, and I'll arrive later." ”
The cow butcher swallowed, and was also a cheerful man, and turned around and walked away without much ink.
After taking two steps, he suddenly turned his head again, and his face covered with horizontal flesh was a little sneering: "You should have eyes and no beads before...... If you can even take out this kind of thing, it means that you are not an ordinary person. I don't care who you are, why do you usually pretend to beg for a beating, I don't ask...... Save your life, wait until you return to White Frost City. ”
After saying it succinctly and clearly, he turned around and left without stopping.
The people from White Frost City, not counting Long Wenmu and Yeqi, are only nine, and one bottle of medicine is enough for them.
"Young master......" Ye Yu called faintly.
"Do you want to go back with them?" asked Long Wenmu.
Nightshade hesitated for a moment, then shook her head.
She was indeed afraid of demon beasts, but she was even more reluctant to part with Long Wenmu.
She knew before that Long Wenmu was proficient in pharmacology, and that bottle of medicine was probably prepared by Long Wenmu herself.
That medicine can really drive away demon beasts, and seeing the scene when the cow butcher is in danger, Yeqi has already believed in the effect of this medicine for seven or eight points.
If it is really a medicine that can drive away demon beasts, even if this kind of thing is placed in the entire Yunxuan Kingdom, I am afraid that it will be difficult to find.
Ye Yan looked at Long Wenmu's side face, and her heart was faintly touched, if it wasn't for today's encounter, she would probably not be able to see what was under Long Wenmu's surface forever.
It turns out that his previous perception of the young master has always been wrong?
"Well, since you don't leave, follow me. Long Wenmu knew that he couldn't persuade her, so he didn't say much.
The Liu family chased the demon beast towards the mountain, and the rest of the people were basically summoned by the Liu family temporarily, accounting for almost half of the total number.
The people of White Frost City had fled down the mountain under the leadership of the cow butcher, and as for the rest, some of them had been anointed with oil under their feet, and the rest were undecided.
Rumble!
There was a loud noise from the mountain, obviously going head-to-head with the demon beast.
"Let's go, go up and have a look. Long Wenmu said.
Hurry up the hill with Nightshade.
Ye Yan didn't know why Long Wenmu wanted to go to the place where the demon beast was, but instinctively believed him.
Young master, he must have his own plans.
Running all the way up the mountain, you can see a lot of broken tree trunks along the way, and even see a few mutilated corpses, which are clearly left by the battle, and the scene is a mess.
After chasing the two incense sticks, the shrill hiss and the shouts of the crowd were intertwined.
Long Wenmu hid in the bushes with the night barrier, and looked around, in a certain open space in front of him, because of the battle, a lot of fog had been dispelled, and there, the scene of the behemoth clashing with everyone was revealed.
