Chapter 14: The Canyon Demon Hunt
Approaching, those people were surrounding a demon beast, dodging and waiting for an opportunity to attack. The encircled monster was shaped like a lizard, much larger than an ordinary lizard, about two zhang in size, and was wearing dark green scale armor, and was running towards the lake on a rampage.
"This is an ironclad lizard, the scale armor is very hard, and it will spurt venom from its mouth, be careful, if you can't kill it, let it go, don't be hard. Fang Chengyi said in a deep voice.
Fang Yan remembered at this time, this iron-armored lizard is a demon beast with water and land twins in a classic, and it is estimated that he came to the woods to find food and was bumped into. This demon lizard's body contains severe poison, and its mouth can spray venom, if it is glued to ordinary medicine, it is useless, I am afraid that it will be detoxified with the monk's elixir, no wonder so many people are around, and they only dare to attack from afar, and dare not approach.
Fang Chengyi shot an arrow at the iron-armored lizard, hoping to provoke it, lure it to chase it, and then slowly brew it. Unexpectedly, the arrow did not penetrate its scale armor at all, and the iron-armored lizard continued to run towards the lake without hesitation. Fang Chengyi cursed a foul word, took off the long thorn from his waist, and stabbed it behind him.
A group of people surrounded the iron-armored lizard and attacked it, but its scale armor was really hard, and they didn't dare to stop it head-on, although the speed was not fast, but if it continued like this, it would sooner or later let it return to the lake. When it came to the water, but it was its world, and no one dared to provoke it, and everyone was annoyed for a while and was ready to give up.
Fang Yan looked in the direction of the small lake, and suddenly his eyes lit up, pointing to a rocky beach near the water's edge, asking Fang Chengyi to drive the ironclad lizard there, and then his figure flashed, and he quickly crossed the grass and hid under a big rock in the rocky beach.
"Fang Yan, come back!" Fang Chengyi shouted anxiously, but Fang Yan had already run away, so he had no choice but to follow what Fang Yan said and command everyone to drive the iron-armored lizard there. Soon the ironclad lizard ran in this direction, not fast, but not slow, after all, it was running for its life.
Just as it climbed to the top of the rubble, everyone lost hope, and it was less than ten feet away from the water, how could it be stopped. Fang Chengyi's heart was even more chaotic at this time, Fang Yan hid under a stone, if he was discovered, his life would be in danger, and his responsibility would be too great. Just when everyone's hearts were in turmoil, the iron-armored lizard suddenly trembled, roared, climbed a few steps with difficulty, and when it was only three feet away from the water, stopped, and after a while collapsed, blood dripping from its mouth.
At this time, Fang Yan crawled out from under the iron lizard, covered in blood, like a bloody man, and startled everyone. Fang Yan smiled hesitantly, ran into the lake to wash the blood stains all over his body, and everyone came back to their senses at this time, this iron lizard was killed by Fang Yan, as if it had been killed in the stomach.
Only then did everyone really pay attention to the dialect, thinking that he was just borrowing the authority of Elder Fang and practicing under the wings of Fang Chengyi and the others, but it did not attract everyone's attention, and some people still had such a son-in-law style.
Now when I see it, the dialect is really bold and careful, the iron armor lizard scale armor is hard, the samurai sword soldiers can't break it at all, but its abdomen is a soft underbelly, but the iron armor lizard will be closely protected, so that people don't attack easily, the dialect instantly thought of this method, but you have to dare to do it, if you miss, you can be swallowed by it. This is also the dialect's confidence in the hidden effect of the dark night, otherwise it would not dare to try it easily.
Fang Chengyi hurriedly flipped over the body of the iron-armored lizard, took out a dagger and carefully cut a long opening, slowly reached in and touched it for a while, and then gently dissected the demon lizard, and in half an hour, took out a turquoise meat ball from it, carefully wrapped it in a piece of animal skin, and put it into a lattice behind him. This is the poison sac of the ironclad lizard, which is specially purchased by the refiner, and it is also the medicinal material for refining the antidote pill, taking the effect of poison attacking poison.
Then he collected a lizard armor and poisonous fangs, put them on Li Fang's body, and threw away all other useless things. This is mainly killed by dialects, most of the harvest belongs to him, and other people who participate in the siege can also get some benefits, and they must return to the clan and divide it, this is the rule.
When the dialect was washed away, the group hit the road again. This forest is very large, and there are many demon beasts, but some places where the vegetation is dense and difficult to walk, everyone still avoids it, and just looks for lone demon beasts along the edge of the woods, and it is more convenient to arrange a place to besiege and kill.
Killed two more demon beasts, everyone walked out of the woods, it was afternoon at this moment, those two demon beasts were not difficult to kill, it didn't take much effort, but the value was not high, far inferior to the iron armored lizard. But along the way, the herbs have been picked a lot, each person has dozens of plants, although the value of a single plant is not high, but it is better than the quantity, if there are a few more such harvests, it will be very satisfied, of course, like Fang Tong to harvest the spirit grass, it is possible to meet but not seek.
A short walk from the woods is a wide canyon that is much more desolate than the woods. Fang Tong didn't know when he arrived here, and ordered everyone to wait for a while and rest in place.
About half an hour later, dozens of people came in a sparse manner, led by two monks from the family, a few people behind them who were dejected, and one of whom was carrying one on his back. Contrary to their sad expressions, the two monks who led the team were full of red light, and when they saw Fang Tong, they smiled and opened a jade box to give him >
"Ambergris, the two of you are really lucky!" Fang Tong couldn't help but exclaim, something amazing.
"It's ambergris, which can be exchanged for a lot of spirit stones. After speaking, he pointed to the person who was carrying it and said: "For this spirit grass, one person was injured by a firethorn spotted snake, but fortunately, the treatment was timely, otherwise it would be a big trouble." I have to tell everyone to be careful, this year's monsters don't seem quite right. ”
"I also feel this way, in previous years, there would not be such a high-level demon beast in these outer places. Fang Tong nodded. The dialect heard it on the side, and said in his heart that it was no wonder that the soldiers were helping to hunt demons, and they were all guarding on the sidelines, and they didn't take action easily.
The Fang family's demon hunting team converged again, still divided into five teams, but this time it was led by the monk himself, and soon the team followed into the canyon. Unlike the mountains where they came, there were few trees in this valley, and the weeds were all yellow, and the scarlet soil was exposed in many places.
The interior of the canyon is very open, several miles wide, with a shallow river in the middle, with sand and gravel on both sides, and large boulders can be seen from time to time. The crowd, led by a few monks, divided into two groups and marched in turn.
After walking a short time, the canyon was divided into two valleys, and after a few monks discussed for a while, they each led a group of people into the two valleys. The dialect was divided into the team in the canyon on the right, there were about forty or fifty people, and that Fang Ye happened to be on this side. After walking a short distance, a small stream passed through the valley, separating the place into two parts, so the people simply divided into two teams and searched all the way on both sides with the stream in the middle of the canyon.
Compared to the entrance of the canyon, it is slightly narrow, only a few miles wide, and there are steep high cliffs on both sides, and the highest point is hundreds of thousands of zhang, which makes the valley feel a little gloomy. "There are demon beasts in this kind of place, how can it be like?" Fang Yan muttered secretly in his heart, and he had the impression that the place where the forest was deep and the grass was dense was the place where the demon beasts haunted.
Suddenly, the leading monk stopped, lowered his body, and made a gesture with the people on both sides, discovering the demon beast. Fang Yan was curious, this slightly desolate canyon was not covered by too much vegetation, but there was no trace of beasts.
The group crept to the edge of a dirt bag near the gorge wall, and saw the leading monk send out a fireball and smash it under the dirt bag. With a "boom", a piece of dead grass and dirt was splashed, and then a "squeak" sound was heard, and dozens of large and small demon beasts rushed out.
I saw that these monsters had long noses, sharp fangs showing in their mouths, but their bodies looked like mice, and they had long tails. However, compared to mice, they are much larger, the larger ones are half a foot long, and the smaller ones are larger than domestic cats. The dialect knew it to be a weevil, but it was much more hideous than the cute appearance in the atlas.
A group of people immediately surrounded them, each using their own means to attack violently. There are a lot of weevils in this group, and their strength is roughly equivalent to the middle and late stages of congenital life, and they are not weak, and they still rushed up fiercely in the face of everyone's attacks. But after all, there were three monks in their team, and how could the weevil-nose rat swarm, who didn't even know how to spell, be able to resist it, and a few weevil-nosed rats were killed on the ground in a short time, and several monks still looked very relaxed.
Although the weevils were not very intelligent, they also knew that the situation was not good, so they quickly scattered and fled, throwing down the corpses of a dozen of their companions, and fled into the deep ravine of the gorge wall, and disappeared in the blink of an eye.
Several monks walked up to the body of the weevil-nosed mouse, scraped off the long whiskers from its mouth with their knives, and then waved their hands so that everyone could come forward and peel the skin and dig up the meat. The rat whiskers are the materials used to make talismans, which can be worth a lot of spirit stones, so they were accepted by several monks. The rat skin is the raw material for clothing, and the clothes made are soft and gorgeous, and they can also be sold for some spirit stones, so they are distributed among the people, and the rat meat is preserved as dry food, and it is said that the taste is very good.
After packing up these things, everyone did not leave in a hurry, but under the command of the three monks, they picked up the dirt bag in front of them and dug into the ground. This is the nest of the weevil-nosed rat, this large group of rats occupies a radius around the dirt bag, and it is said that this monster likes to store things, especially before the cold of winter, but it is better to find something good.
When I opened the dirt bag, I saw that the hole of these rat demons was not large, only a foot in size, and the inside was intricate, and the cobweb-like cave was dizzy. And the cave wall is still very hard, I don't know what material is very difficult to dig, a group of people dug for a long time, but only a few feet deep, except for finding a few dry herbs and a bunch of bones of unknown demon beasts, nothing else was found.
Now it was getting dark, and it was time to look for a place to camp for the night, and the group, led by a few monks, set out along the brook again. I found a cliff bottom, which was fairly flat and open, and settled here.
There were not many trees nearby, and it took a long time to make a few fires, and then they went to the river to pick up some stones, and laid out a small area, and then spread hay to make the beds. After eating something, Fang Yan took out the rabbit skin jacket that his father gave him and wrapped it, it was quite warm, and he fell asleep deeply.
