Chapter 9: The Herd
Miss Guan Qi was born in a family of rivers and lakes, and the business of the carriage shop is very similar to the dart game, and she needs to rely on connections and force to cover it. Pen ~ fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info such a growth environment gave her a chivalrous courage, after hearing that the benefactor who led her was avenged by her brother, she put on all the equipment and ran to the Liu family prison with a roar.
The guards in front of the prison gate have all been transferred to defend the city. The Liu family is the manager of this cyclamen town, the first family, in order to fulfill their responsibilities, they can be regarded as unreserved. There was only one old man left in the prison to guard the door, and when he saw Miss Guan running over and breaking in, he hurriedly went up to stop him, but was pushed to the ground.
"Don't get in my way, go get me the cell key. ”
When he encountered this brutal young lady, the old man knew that he had to take it if he didn't take it, so he could just follow her wishes and take a few fewer punches and kicks.
Lin Yuan and Lu Xian were still practicing spells, when they heard footsteps at the door of the cell, they looked at the time again, and decided that the person who came must be the executioner.
Lu Xian took a deep breath, pinched the fire duel, and a fireball rose in the palm of his hand. She's ready to kill, but that's a last resort, and it's best to use this fireball to scare people away.
Lin Yuan had already cultivated the 'Wood Spirit Technique' here, and at this time, he grabbed a straw and called up the spiritual qi mass on his chest to cast a spell. The straw exploded with a 'bang', and the grass ash was splashed everywhere, and because the straw was small in size, the explosion power was not large, and some of it looked like large firecrackers. As for that aura, it didn't seem to have diminished in the slightest.
He had already tried this wood spirit technique many times in this prison, and when he was a child, he couldn't afford to buy firecrackers, but today he had enough fun. The more he used the Wood Spirit Technique, the more he felt that something was wrong. Lu Xian originally wanted him to use this spell to blow up the wooden door of the cell, but he had a faint premonition and warned him not to do it.
Miss Guan Qi was naturally not an executioner, she came to the cell where her benefactor was held in three steps and two steps, holding the key in her hand. Seeing a girl in prison holding a fire bomb in her hand made her extremely happy, as if she had found a companion.
She hurriedly summoned the aura mass in her chest and summoned a fireball. In terms of fireballs and aura masses alone, Guan Qi's size is larger. However, in terms of chest, Lu Xian is relatively large.
Lin Yuan and Lu Xian saw that someone was holding the fireball, thinking that the other party was going to fight, so they hurriedly put on a posture. Miss Guan Qi realized that she had caused a misunderstanding, and hurriedly extinguished the flames.
"I'm sorry, I'm not malicious. I just wanted to say that I can also summon fire!" she explained, taking out the Immortal Tale from the cloth bag around her waist. "That's what I learned from this book. You're the benefactor who sold this book to me, and can you put away your spell and listen to me?"

To the west of Cyclamen Town, the battle is about to begin. The fairy boat that controlled a large number of low-level spirits was slowly moving in the direction of the town, and the spirits naturally followed.
These land spirits have many sharp claws and fangs, like tigers and leopards in the forest, but they either have horns on the top of their heads, or have two tails, or they have terrifying patterns on their fur.
In addition, there are two giant pythons swimming among them, and every meter they advance, their huge bodies will sweep away the tigers and leopards next to them, as if they were just roadside dust. Strangely, these furious spirits don't attack other spirits.
At the end of the line is a giant bear monster walking upright, with the size of a two-story house and a crescent moon on its chest like a sharp knife.
The most numerous of the herds are monsters the size of cats and dogs. It looks inconspicuous, but it has the fastest speed, and its claws and fangs are more than enough to cut through human bones.
In the face of such a monster army, some bad voices appeared in the assembled garrison troops, and fear continued to spread.
The boss of the Liu family suddenly grabbed the arm of a young man of the Liu family, dragged him out of the phalanx, and casually raised the knife in his hand and slashed at the young man's neck. Directly decapitated his head.
This action quieted down the people present, and Boss Liu stepped on the head he had cut off and yelled at the team: "Whoever incites his companions to flee will end up like this!"
Seeing this scene, the heads of other families remembered that they seemed to be mobilized before the war to improve the morale of the team. So they ran to their homes to give impassioned speeches.
Guan Fan's team has increased from 50 people five days ago to 150. The elite of the family is at its best.
Compared with other family heads, he seemed calm, and he didn't talk about loyalty, filial piety and righteousness when mobilizing, but just talked about interests and the current situation.
"Everyone has seen the problem now, if the spirits attack us, I'm afraid they will eat us up. It's too late to run, it's too late, and we have no choice but to fight. As long as everyone can survive today, I promise that I will personally help each brother find a beautiful concubine with three rooms, and I will pay for the placement. If any brother dies in battle, as long as the town is still around, then his family will be responsible. The father is like my father, the son is like my nephew, and my wife is like my sister-in-law!"
At the moment of the great enemy, everyone is nervous. It is precisely at this time that the two points of desire and family affection can stir people's hearts the most. Although Guan Fan's team did not shout 'win, win' with their arms like next door, everyone lowered their heads and secretly swore that they must survive and protect their wives and children in the town.
Finally, the two armies handed over, and the herd was in range. Boss Liu had been trained in the army, and he was in charge of the most manpower, and he commanded the phalanx to retreat in an orderly manner, retreating behind the houses in the town.
Although there are no walls, houses can be used as bunkers.
There were not many good shooters in the town, and these people had already formed a team of 100 people to climb the newly built arrow tower, and they all bent their bows to aim at the front of the formation to resist the horses.
Before the fairy boat flew to the position, the small spirits rushed the most violently, and the first one was hindered by the rejection of the horse, and a large number of spirits were densely gathered together. The archers took advantage of this opportunity to shoot arrows at the dense concentration of spirits. Their actions were neat and disciplined, all because there was a Liu family bow and arrow leader standing not far away, waving the dicolor flag as a command.
The effect of this wave of arrows was very significant, and many tigers and leopards fell to the ground. These spirits, which were either killed or fell, further blocked the progress of the following spirits, and the monsters crowded more and more before rejecting the horse.
"After all, it's a stupid thing with no IQ. Guan Fan sighed, and also ordered his troops to retreat, "Those who have long weapons and shields, all give me a room!"
His roar alerted the other families.
"Isn't it easy to deal with these spirits with spears and poles on the roof?"
The houses and dwellings in the west of the town have long been emptied and have become fortifications. I thought that the other party was a horse thief, and the street fighting would not play a role. I didn't expect it to come in handy at this time.
The archers killed many spirits before they could resist the horses, but when the pythons swam over, the stakes that were nailed to the ground were easily smashed, like picky eaters using chopsticks to pluck the carrots on their plates.
Then the hulking bear was shot with two arrows and let out a roar of rage, which was mixed with the genius of the spirits, and for a time the archers were too weak to shoot their bows.
The tigers and leopards and small spirits were the first to make contact with the town's guards, their claws and fangs tearing their chests and throats, and spears hiding behind their shields and smashing the spirits' heads and stomachs.
"Oh my god, so many spirits. How much does the fur and crystal nucleus add up?"
The exclamation of several money-hungry youths seemed to remind everyone. If you can survive this battle, the treasures on these spirits alone are enough to make yourself a rich man, move out of this town and run to Linshan City to buy a big house.
As a resident of Cyclamen Town, I often see Sanxian coming over to buy some low-level materials. There are also a few people who have been rewarded with immortal elixirs because of the relatively high value of the crystal nucleus, skin and bones taken out, and Boss Liu is one of them.
At this time, the head of the Liu family was wearing heavy armor, each nail leaf was a finger thick, and the whole person was like a huge bell. But he was still able to move flexibly, skillfully wielding a green dragon knife to split the spirits in front of him into two in batches.
"The Immortal's Juli Pill is really magical!" Boss Liu laughed as he slashed and slashed. "It's the first time in my life that I can slash and kill the enemy so quickly. Cool!"
Beside him, there were two other people with similar attire, except that the Qinglong Sword was replaced by a giant shield broadsword, and the guards were beside Boss Liu. These two are his two youngest sons, not to mention their superb martial arts, they have also received the Immortal Gift. It's just that each pill has a limited effective time, and it needs to be used carefully, which is the killer feature of the Liu family.
The three of them stood like fortresses in the midst of the beasts, the corpses of the spirits around them piled up like sandbag barricades, but the two giant pythons that specialized in destroying the barricades swam over. One of them saw three things moving in the middle of the road, and went up to take a mouthful.
Boss Liu saw the giant python spirit from a distance and waited for it to come. Before the python's giant mouth pounced, he had already erected the green dragon knife and stabbed it directly in the jaw of the giant python.
In his mind, this time he would be able to penetrate his head, and the most terrifying bear and two pythons in the herd would go to one of them. But the skin of the giant python was like a heavy chain mail, and it couldn't even be stabbed in, but the tip of the green dragon knife was broken by the huge force.
"Protect Father!"
Boss Liu's two sons yelled at the same time to push him away, and drove a huge shield to protect him. The python's head was slapping on the shield of the two, and Boss Liu on the side heard a crackling sound, which was the sound of bones being crushed inch by inch.
Monty pythons have tough skin and are invincible.
Boss Liu, who lost his son, did not have a trace of sadness in his heart, and there was no room for that on the battlefield. The giant python still received some damage from the Qinglong Knife, and the huge snake body stood up, the snake head was high, and its eyes were staring at Boss Liu who had retreated to the back of the house.
The Guan family stood on the roof of the house and stabbed to death many tigers and leopards with spears. The shield-wielding guards kept pushing down the spirits that had swooped down on the room, and what awaited them was the rain of spears.
However, the appearance of the two pythons turned the tide in an instant, and they just twisted their bodies and pushed the house to it. The pikemen were no longer facing the monsters beneath them, but from the maws of the pythons above them.
The slowest bear monster has joined the fray, and it seems to be a vengeful bear, remembering the two arrows that the archer shot at it from afar, preoccupied with the archers. Those improvised spires had been knocked down, and the head of the Liu family's bow and arrow sect had already died, sticking to the feet of the bear monster.
The defenses collapsed, and the tigers and leopards and the small spirits had room to play. They pounced on the humans who had just slaughtered them, their skin and bones shattering like tofu when they met their fangs and claws.
"Retreat, retreat!"
All the families are directing their clansmen to retreat. Although there is a residential area behind it, it is not managed. They had no chance of winning in the face of the herd, so they could only wait for these spirits to disperse and then defeat them one by one.
Boss Liu was wearing that exaggerated armor, and Guan Fan was found in the crowd who ran faster than anyone else. He grabbed Guan Fan by the collar and lifted him into the air, and asked loudly, "Where is your precious fairy daughter?"
Guan Fan snorted and pointed to the giant python swimming not far away, "Boss Liu, you better think about yourself first, that python monster has recognized you, if you don't want to die, let me go and run for your life." ”
The giant python, which had been poked in the jaw, increased its movement speed, and when it saw that it was close enough to the annoying human, it opened its bloody mouth again and bit it.
Seeing this, Boss Liu hurriedly dodged, angry in his heart.
"Are you a poisonous snake or a python!!How can a python attack and hurt people like this!?"
The python didn't understand what this man was making noise at all, and the first hit was followed by a second attack.
Suddenly, two fireballs flew into the sky and fell into the python's mouth. Miss Guan Qi stood on a rooftop and stared at Daddy and Boss Liu not far away, "Hey, I seem to have heard someone looking for me just now!"
Miss Guan Qi stood beside Lu Xian, and the two of them pinched the fire in one hand to condense the second fireball, and each grabbed a spirit stone in the other hand to replenish it.
The giant python that was hit by the fireball was extremely painful, and the sticky fireball was difficult to extinguish, and it was already burning and spreading in its mouth. The two fairies took advantage of the victory to chase and threw the second fireball over, right in the throat of the giant python. Within a few seconds, the python's entire head was on fire.
Seeing this, Lu Xian shouted to everyone, "Run, be careful of the monster fighting back when it is dying!"
Boss Liu and Guan Fan wondered vigorously. How can it be said that there is only one fairy, how can there be one more of this. It's just that compared to the eldest lady of the Guan family, this extra fairy ...... It seems to be a little ugly......

Lin Yuan did not follow Lu Xian and Miss Guan Qi. He'd sneak around to the woods horse thief camp.
The storytellers in the teahouse often emphasize one truth - capture the thief and capture the king. He always felt that the wood spirit technique he had learned seemed a little strange, so he volunteered to go to the mountains and forests to deal with the leader of the horse thieves. He wanted to test the power of his spell in that wooded place, and his intuition told him that Qi Fan Cao had given him other talents in addition to giving birth to spiritual roots......
