Chapter 431: Building a Defensive Circle

Yu Liang controlled the golden eagle puppet to check a large circle, but did not find a water source, the lake when they first came was just a water attribute barrier, with the destruction of the eye barrier, the original lake was just a piece of yellow sand.

Although everyone was very strange, they were helpless now, so Kong Rui had to quickly arrange for those female disciples to disperse as quickly as possible to condense as much water as possible, and arranged for the other two disciples to dig down as much as possible to see if they could dig a well that could produce water.

Kong Rui's plan is to dig a circular pit, pile the excavated soil around, and then water it as a defense around it, so that they can use the magic circle and prohibition just to defend against the air, and use this method to reduce the defense area to see if they can resist for a while longer; everyone knows what is at stake, and it involves their own lives, and they don't mind who is in charge, as long as they think it is effective, everyone works hard, hoping to get through this difficulty.

Although there were some injured among the people, most of the others were still strong in mana, and it took more than two hours to dig a circular pit with a diameter of five or six zhang and a depth of more than one zhang, but the place where they had buried the disc when they came was left behind, forming a round platform with a diameter of more than one zhang, which was left in the center of the pit, and the excavated soil was also surrounded by the pit, forming a thick wall of earth.

It was dark when the sky saw it, and I saw a bronze puppet carriage in the distance speeding from the northwest, but it turned out to be the other five disciples of Shiming Mountain, and I didn't know where they went, and now they rushed back to the teleportation point.

Li Zhang looked at the defense situation here, couldn't help but nodded, and said loudly: "I think that the poisonous gas will be able to come over in four or five hours at most, and I hope that we can resist the next few hours by ourselves." ”

I saw a monk from the Miaokong Sect step forward and said, "I wonder if Senior Brother Li has seen several fellow disciples of our sect?"

Li Zhang's face turned pale, and he asked rhetorically, "You said that Senior Brother Huiming hasn't come back yet?"

The monk said, "Senior Brother Li is too worried, Senior Brother Huiming, they are fine, but it will take some more time to come back." ”

Li Zhang breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Who is arranging this now? But Senior Brother Kong Rui?"

Kong Rui was not polite, so he stepped forward and said, "Exactly, what advice does senior brother have?"

Li Zhang smiled and said: "The senior brother has a good arrangement, the foolish brother just came to listen to your arrangement, if the junior brother has any arrangements, just give orders." ”

Kong Rui said: "According to what Senior Brother said, if the poisonous gas can come in four or five hours, we still have time to thicken the earthen wall, and then everyone's pressure will be less." ”

Li Zhang said: "This is the best. After saying that, they also stepped forward together and dug earth to build a wall.

After working for more than an hour, it was already completely dark, and everyone took out moonstones to help illuminate, but they didn't stop at all. Suddenly, I heard a sentry disciple shouting, "Something is coming!" Several disciples in charge of defense were taken aback, and hurriedly rose into the air one by one.

I saw a spherical point of light in the darkness in the distance speeding towards this direction. Someone immediately planned to take out a weapon, only to hear a disciple of the Miaokong Sect say, "Don't panic, this should be Senior Brother Huiming of our sect coming over." Then the people breathed a sigh of relief and went back to work.

The person who came was indeed Huiming and other five monks, these five people didn't know what they had done, they looked a little more embarrassed than the last time Kong Rui saw them, but fortunately, this time they still used the bowl-shaped traffic magic weapon, and they didn't see the appearance of a shortage of mana.

I only heard Li Zhang smile and said: "Senior Brother Huiming, you have come back to pick up ready-made!"

Hui Ming was not angry at all, looked at the surrounding defense situation and said: "The younger brother and a few people have touched those poisonous fog a few times, this fog is extremely penetrating, I am afraid that ordinary earth walls may not be able to block it; ”

When everyone heard this, they couldn't help but feel a chill in their hearts, and they only heard Li Zhang ask: "So you can only rely on various prohibitions? That poisonous mist is extremely corrosive, how long can the prohibition be resisted?"

Kong Rui is currently the chief steward here, and when he heard Hui Ming say this, he only beat the drum in his heart, but he soon remembered that when he was a child in the Northland, in winter, the water outside was splashed into ice, and the frozen soil was unusually strong, so he immediately asked loudly: "Fellow Daoists, is there anyone who is good at icicle technique?" We can add water to that earthen wall and freeze it into an ice wall, so that it should be able to resist the erosion of that poisonous gas." ”

At least half of the people knew how to pick ice, and there was no better way for them to do it. I saw Hui Ding pointing to the earthen platform in the middle of the pit and said, "We also need to increase the height of this earthen platform, so that it will be convenient for everyone to observe and leave." ”

After everyone finished speaking, they immediately began to do it, while pouring the water condensed on the earth wall, there were disciples who used the ice pick technique to freeze the water into ice, but the condensed water was still too little, but fortunately, as they dug deeper into the ground, the water content in the underground soil was much more, and the two disciples who were responsible for digging the well had already dug out the water, but the amount of water was still far from enough.

Seeing that the dirt was getting wetter the further down they dug, they didn't care about anything else, so they all stepped forward to dig up the wet soil and build a wall, and dug three wells at the same time next to it, hoping to build the ice wall before the poison gas came.

Chen Deng said suddenly: "If those ice walls are built, but this space is so small and so firmly sealed inside, there are so many of us, and everyone's breathing is also a problem, how can this be good? ”

When everyone heard this, they also thought it made sense, but if the prohibition and magic circle here were opened after the poisonous gas came, all the soil dug up here should be poured there? You can't put all of them into the storage bag, right? Thinking of this, Kong Rui hurriedly took out a set of one-way teleportation array flags from the storage bag, and said, "Which senior brother is willing to go to that mountainous area to find a convenient place to pour soil and lay the formation flags, so that it will be convenient for us to be sealed and still be able to teleport the soil out?"

I saw Hui Ding take a step forward and said: "Amitabha, the poor monk still knows some magic circles, so let me go!"

Kong Rui was overjoyed, and hurriedly gave the set of array flags to Hui Ding. Hui Ding didn't take his array flag, and turned around and left.

After a while, Hui Ding walked back, but instead of arranging a formation flag in the pit, he took out a bowl-shaped magic weapon from the storage bag and said, "The entrance to this teleportation circle is here, but it can only teleport a few things at a time, but it can be used many times." ”

Kong Rui couldn't help but feel a little strange when he saw that the diameter of the magic weapon was less than half a foot, but Hui Ding smiled and played a trick on the bowl, only to see that the silver light on the surface of the bowl flashed, and it rose to more than three feet in an instant, enough for everyone to pour soil into it.

Immediately, another disciple came to test, and sure enough, as soon as the excavated soil was poured into the bowl, the soil disappeared in an instant, and everyone was overjoyed.

In the second half of the night, everyone was busy working, only to hear the sentry disciple shouting again: "Be careful, there are demon beasts attacking!"

Kong Rui's heart moved, he knew that this was not an attack by a demon beast, but a precursor to the arrival of poisonous gas, and hurriedly shouted: "It should be that the poisonous gas is also coming, you should hurry up the arrangement; Senior Brother Zhang, Senior Brother Feng invite you to come over and scare off these demon beasts." If you have a fellow Daoist who is good at dealing with demon beasts, please come over and don't let the demon beasts hurt our ice wall!"
