Chapter 9: The Venerable Beast Master
Seeing the herd disappear into the jungle on the other side of the river, the people on the boat still did not dare to get up for a long time.
After the ploughs spat out the ice, the huge bodies like small mountains surfaced, and everyone finally saw the full picture of the legendary mysterious beast for the first time.
The two larger ones are more than 50 feet long, and the smaller one is more than 30 feet long.
The head is large, with a long snout, a huge bone plate towering on the back, and a large bloated body supported by thick legs. As they moved, a large amount of ice slag on their backs continued to pour down.
Kashiwa watched as the monsters slowly stepped onto the other side, squeezing into the dark jungle in the direction of the meerkat herd.
There was a rumbling sound, trees fell, dust and smoke rose everywhere, and the night sky on the other side of the river bank was dyed gray by the moonlight.
The houseboat was upstream, drifting towards the icy road in the river.
Uncle Hu did not give the order to take the helm and dock, or simply turn back, but let the houseboat go down the river. Bai Ye was slowly dragged back to the cabin.
Yi Chi, who had been lying in the cabin, didn't know what was going on outside, only to see everyone rushing out in a panic and sneaking in quietly, and the atmosphere was very tense. I couldn't help but ask, "What? Do those big monkeys know how to water? and still follow us?"
Bai Ye reacted for a moment, and then realized that the big monkey in his mouth was referring to the group of mongooses.
He smiled bitterly, lowered his voice and said, "They're gone." But a family ploughed again. Uncle Hu seems to have listened to my words, and he wants to catch up with them and deal with them, and take the spirit core to disassemble the calyx for you. ”
". Uncle Suo was digging through the gap in the canopy and looking out, "Look carefully, on the ice." ”
Bai Ye leaned over. Despite the fact that the river was blocked by the ice and did not flow quickly, the houseboat was still approaching the ice road very quickly.
Only then did he notice that a man and a horse appeared on the ice at some point.
The man was shrouded in a wide purple robe, with a huge hood obscuring his face.
He led a black horse and walked through the ice road without hurrying. The ice behind them was gradually melting and disappearing as they moved.
"Orcs. Uncle Suo muttered in a low voice.
Bai Ye had never heard of this name, rolled his eyes, and asked, "He was the one who blew the whistle just now?"
"Well, the Kingdom of Ul calls them the Beast Venerable. Living in the northern wilderness all year round, it appears once every three years, and it is said that it is specially designed for the seven surnamed Wang Qiu to hunt and drive away spirit beasts. We have always suspected that the spirit beasts that have suddenly appeared in the Wei Kingdom over the years are the ones they raised. But I never ran into it. ”
When the man landed firmly on the other side, the ice path that lay over the creek disappeared completely, as if it had never existed.
Losing the blockage, the current brought the houseboat faster and faster, and Uncle Beard on the board of the boat no longer lowered his body, but stood up.
The purple-robed man on the riverbank had already noticed the houseboat, and it was useless to hide it.
The houseboat had drifted in front of the man, no more than twenty paces away from each other. Bai Ye changed his position and made another hole in the canopy.
The huge hood has been removed. The man looked very old, and his hands stood upright, like a javelin.
Before he could take a closer look, a strong force suddenly struck from under his feet.
Bai Yeleng lost his center of gravity and fell backwards, pressing on the stretcher.
The houseboat almost overturned on its side as if it had hit a rock. The people in the cabin were smashed by the rolling debris.
In the midst of the whirlwind, Bai Ye suddenly saw a sky full of stars. Immediately after that, his waist tightened, and the familiar tendons wrapped around him again.
He was jerked out of the cabin and thrown into the air.
Before falling on the shore, Bai Ye only had time to see clearly, Uncle Hu Zi was holding a sharp axe in his hand, standing firmly next to the split cabin, and Uncle Ba was pulling out the stretcher from the half-sinking cabin.
Xiao Yi is ambulated. He relaxed suddenly, and fell again with a mouth full of mud.
Almost instantly, the houseboat sank diagonally into the river.
Rao was already prepared for the purple robe, and the little uncles were still on the way.
No one expected that there was a special plow hidden under the surface of the water!
Uncle Beard and Uncle Ba, who has the best light body skills, did not get any water on them, and Bai Ye, who was thrown ashore, did not get wet, but they were covered in mud.
Uncle Suo and Uncle Yan were wet. The two quickly climbed ashore and immediately rushed out a few dozen paces, far away from the river.
Who knows where that monster will come out again.
Then again, it was a bargain not to have taken a slap in the ice just now.
The purple robe may have mastered his own secret arts, and obviously didn't take the group of people in front of him seriously. But there was still some doubt in his expression.
He slowly paced closer: "Wearing hunting clothes, hiding in fishing boats, and doing physical skills." Who are you?"
It is a dialect of the northern part of the country, and it can be roughly understood by Bai Ye. But this person's voice was sharp and sharp, and the rhythm of his speech was not quite right, and the dry four characters were broken, which made people choke and panic.
Uncle Hu Zi opened his mouth and actually came out with a dialect: "The Gu family detective rides." ”
As he spoke, he picked up a square iron plaque hanging from his waist and showed it to the purple robe.
Amazing!
Bai Ye hadn't seen Uncle Beard with this thing before.
This was just put on?
Bai Ye's heart was beating wildly. Uncle Beard, they are too bold. This is not called improvisation. It's definitely a gamble!
Even if the timing and judgment are a little inaccurate, not to mention the mystic in front of him, there are still special plows and a large group of violent mongooses in the woods.
Bai Ye wore a robe, which was different from the little uncles who called themselves "Gu Family Detective Riders". Fortunately, it is covered in mud now, and it should not be easy to find flaws in the dark night.
He squatted on the ground and didn't dare to move, peeking at the iron plaque that Uncle Beard was holding up.
The Gu family is one of the seven royal families of the Wei Kingdom, and the four counties of Guanbei, including Wenyang County, are all under the jurisdiction of his family. It seems that the little uncles have been quite well prepared over the years, and they even have the scout waist card.
The official position of the waist card representative may not be low, and after the young purple robe looked at the iron, he actually bowed his head slightly, which can be regarded as a nodding in greeting.
"Three days after clearing the field, are you still there?"
Got it right?!
The residents of Ul in this vicinity were indeed forcibly driven away. But what is the purpose of the clearance?
Uncle Hu lowered his head and pondered for a while, it seemed that the four-character sentence was difficult to express clearly, so he had to give up: "Our little brother was injured three days ago, and he came here to detoxify." ”
There is no half-heartedness in this statement, and the words are very sincere.
The purple robe looks like he is not deeply involved in the world and is a little dull, and it seems that he easily believes Uncle Huzi's nonsense.
But his eyes had just landed on the stretcher on the ground, and suddenly his eyes were shining and he hurried over, and he leaned down with some excitement to take a closer look: "Cannibal calyx!
Everyone was stunned. This guy looked simple, but intentionally or unintentionally, he suddenly broke the loophole in Uncle Beard's words.
No one knows what the habits of this calyx man-eating flower are. It seems that this is a bit more toxic than expected. How long Xiao Yi can hold on, this time everyone really has no bottom in their hearts.
However, the purple robe's attention was completely attracted by Yi Chi. He didn't continue to ask, but reached out to touch Yichi's wound with some excitement.
Bai Ye's heart fluctuated. Looking at this guy's excited and focused appearance, could it be that he really understands this spirit strain? That is to say, he is likely to detoxify?
Yi Chi was also refreshed, and his breathing became a little short.
"To tell you the truth, we used the soil method to alleviate the spread of the virus. Uncle Beard politely stopped the purple-robed executioner. At the same time, he pinched Yi Chi without a trace.
The purple robe squatting on the ground shook his head again and again: "Unlikely...... No way. ”
"Can't you cure this poison?"
The purple robe actually laughed miserably: "Scatter your strength for blood." There is no other way. ”
As soon as these words came out, Yi Chi's eyes that had just lit up dimmed again.
After Uncle Hu was silent for a while, he reached out and pulled it into Yi Chi's arms a few times, as if he didn't give up and asked, "Is this method okay?"
The purple robe looked at suspiciously.
At that moment, a black shadow swirled around like lightning. Uncle Suo grabbed the tendons with both hands, and quickly locked the neck of the purple robe, and his knees were already on his spine.
