After passing through the woods, there is a small hill in front of you, not far from the spring mountain, and a small village under the slope is located between the two, what should have been a quiet and peaceful small mountain village, but now it has completely changed, everywhere there are fires, thick smoke, a mess, it is already dilapidated, what is even more uncomfortable is that there is blood everywhere on the ground and walls, even the water in the pond has been stained red, and there are scattered pieces of flesh and limbs, it seems that the village has been subjected to a brutal bloodbath.

"Oh no! it's too late!" the old man on the horse suddenly exclaimed when he saw this scene, jumped off his horse and rushed into the village like a bolt of lightning.

Ming Xuan hesitated slightly, and also turned on his horse and rushed into the village, not to mention who the old man was, but when he saw such a scene, he couldn't stand by and say anything, not to mention that although the old man seemed to be a little cunning, he was not a bad person.

After entering the village, Ming Xuan completely felt the pain of the village, the village should be lively and lively, but now it is terrifyingly quiet, no one saw it, as soon as he stepped into the village, a strong smell of blood came to his face, in the houses in the village, The streets are already in shambles, some houses are still burning, there is not much left, there is blood everywhere, but there is no corpse in sight, only occasionally find a broken finger or a few broken bones on the ground, at a glance you know that it is human, Rao is a person like Mingxuan who is used to seeing bloody scenes, and he can't help but feel a little like vomiting, and a wave of anger swells up in his heart, who is so cruel! Not only did no one let go, not even the bones were left!

Ming Xuan took a closer look, the burning house started to burn from the kitchen, and now it was almost evening, it seemed that it was when he was cooking, he was attacked, and the firewood splashed out, thus igniting the house, and now the fire is still very strong, which also means that this attack has not passed too long! And the blood on the ground has not yet coagulated! It must have just happened! Thinking of this, Ming Xuan immediately pulled out his sword, took off his bow and arrows and straddled his body, and was on guard carefully!

The old man has disappeared, it is estimated that he has rushed to the front to investigate the situation, the village is relatively small and relatively simple, there is only one main road, the houses are located on both sides, just walk here to understand the situation of the whole village, Ming Xuan is on guard and walks forward slowly, at this time Ming Xuan found a child's swaddling clothes in the house on the side, but it is already empty, the blood has dyed it crimson, it seems that the child in the swaddling clothes has suffered an accident!

"Bastard! he didn't even let go of a child!" Ming Xuan was completely enraged, he had never been like this! A child was innocent, how could he bear to attack such a weak life!

Ming Xuan began to run wildly, hoping to find the murderer immediately and make him pay for his blood debts! I don't know how long he ran, and finally heard some noisy sounds! Ming Xuan immediately used his cloud-piercing leg to the extreme, and rushed towards the source of the sound at full speed!

The villagers were all gathered together, leaning against a corner of the mountain, several adult men stood in front of them, trembling with long forks and short knives and carefully guarded, and the women and children were whimpering and crying, obviously frightened by the situation in front of them, and they were surrounded by not robbers, bandits, or enemies, but a group of countless fierce beasts! No wonder there were no bones left in the village, it seemed that they had been eaten by the beasts!

The old man is now fighting hard at the front, waving his hunting fork almost one by one, but there are too many beasts, and he can't finish killing them one after another, and he can't change the overall situation for a while, so he can only barely hold on to the beasts from getting too close and protect the villagers from being harmed.

Ming Xuan didn't say anything, brandished his sword and rushed directly into the beast herd, Ming Xuan was very experienced in dealing with fierce beasts, and knew where their weaknesses were, and how to deal with them, on the contrary, so many fierce beasts gathered together to restrain each other, they couldn't do it at all, Ming Xuan rushed left and right to open a bloody path from the middle, rushed to the old man's side, guarded the other side for him, reduced his pressure, and finally eased the attack of the beast herd.

"I didn't expect you to be so good at this little offspring!" the old man was still in the mood to joke at this time.

"Is it time to laugh!" Ming Xuan was not in the mood to joke at this time, he just wanted to kill a few more fierce beasts to vent the fire in his heart!

"That's good! Then let's see who kills more!" the old man turned pale and stopped talking, turning angrily to face the bloodthirsty beasts!

The old man is very skilled, it seems that he has at least the level of the fifth order of the martial artist, but because he didn't bring a handy weapon, he picked up a hunting fork commonly used by Orion and used it, which is obviously not very easy, plus he is not very good at dealing with fierce beasts, but he is just a brutal straight fork attack, and he can only kill Ming Xuan of the second order of the martial artist, after all, Ming Xuan is holding a sharp sword, and his understanding of fierce beasts is far from being comparable to him, almost all of them are very light and killing.

With the crazy killing of the two, effectively resisting the attack of the beasts, the villagers who had been frightened also began to regain their courage, and used their weapons to fight against the beasts, the situation slowly changed greatly, more and more beast corpses fell beside everyone, and they were almost built into a wall, but even so, the beasts did not have the slightest intention of retreating, and still rushed forward, which is very abnormal for the beasts who are cautious by nature, Ming Xuan couldn't help but wonder a little while fighting hard.

Just as everyone was getting braver and braver, suddenly there was a roar in the distance, which shook everyone's ears a little buzzing, it was so long and powerful! But he couldn't tell what kind of beast it was from, Ming Xuan was a little shocked, what kind of powerful beast was this!

Fortunately, however, the roar was not a prelude to an attack, but a signal to retreat, and the beasts that had been biting at them all now receded like a tide, leaving behind a pile of beast corpses and a ruined village.

Seeing the beasts retreating, Ming Xuan immediately sat on the ground tired, panting heavily, he was already exhausted after fighting for so long, just relying on a breath to hold on, but the old man on the side was as if nothing happened, even his breathing was very calm, the master of the fifth order of martial arts was indeed not comparable to Ming Xuan, the villagers couldn't believe it when they saw the fierce beast that was still fierce just now and retreated like this, they couldn't believe it, and for a while everyone cried with joy, hugging their heads and crying.

At this time, a pale old man walked out of the villagers and came to the old man and Mingxuan, who seemed to be a respected elder in the village.

"Little old man Li Degui is the head of the village, and on behalf of the village, I would like to thank the two heroes for their life-saving grace!" As soon as the words fell, the old man actually knelt down, and the other villagers knelt down when they saw this scene, and even thanked them, making the two of them busy for a while, and quickly helped everyone up.

"Yes, yes! You don't have to be like this, let's treat the injured first, and tidy up our homes. The old man hurriedly said that the top priority was to deal with the wounded and comfort everyone.

After resting for a while, the villagers began to clean up their dilapidated homes, and the old man and Mingxuan were invited to the house by the village chief, but seeing that everyone was busy, Mingxuan was embarrassed to sit there, and hurriedly helped treat the injured, and took out all the wound medicine he carried, which came in handy at this time, but the old man sat on the side and drank sullenly, looking thoughtful.

After a period of busy work, the sky gradually darkened, because the beasts attacked during the day made everyone palpitate, so they did not return home, everyone gathered together, lit a bonfire, but the atmosphere was dull and terrible, and there was even a faint sobbing, in order to mourn the dead relatives, it seems that the attack of the beasts made the village suffer a huge loss.

"Village chief, there were originally more than 300 people in our village, but this beast attack killed more than 100 people, injured more than 50 people, damaged seven houses, and was no longer able to live in them, and nearly ninety percent of the dead did not even have any bones left. A villager with tears in his eyes sobbed and reported the loss to the village chief, causing sighs and cries around him, and Mingxuan was also angry, blaming himself for not killing a few more beasts during the day to avenge the dead villagers.

"Alas, the dead are long gone, and the survivors are stealing life, so let's mourn and change, heal the injured first, and then we will make plans. "Although the weak villagers were very angry in the face of the attack of the powerful beasts in the mountains, they were more powerless, and the beasts were indeed not something they could compete with.

"Village Chief, does this happen to you a lot? Ming Xuan couldn't help but ask.

"That's not true, this is the first time, and I don't know what's going on, there are so many beasts coming down the mountain, if this is often the case, we must be prepared, otherwise we would have migrated and left long ago. The village chief apparently didn't understand what was going on.

"I'm a little bit of an eyebrow about this. The old man who sat on the side for a long time was silent, took a sip of wine, and said lightly.

"What's going on?" Ming Xuan hurriedly asked.

"Alas, in fact, I came here for this matter, I didn't expect to miss the time on the road, and it was already a step late to get here, this is actually a beast tide. The old man sighed, and said with a look of remorse, obviously regretting that he had drunk too much and made a mistake, and after drinking too much, he climbed into a tree and slept for a while, if he had arrived earlier, there would not have been such a big loss.

"Beast tide?" asked Ming Xuan and the village chief at the same time.
