Chapter 26: Mass Graves
When I got back to the tent, it was dinner time. The people in the same account came back one after another, and Hypertherm got to know them one by one. These martial arts practitioners were originally very bold, talking and laughing together was very lively, and only one person was alone, which was very unsociable. Haibao felt familiar, and suddenly remembered that he was Xu Songshan of the Youth League. Hai Bao stepped forward to greet him, he just snorted coldly, Hai Bao knew that Xu Songshan was indifferent, and he didn't care.
After dinner, they sat down in their bunks to rest. Knowing that the monsters were close at hand, but not being able to destroy them, made Haibao feel restless. Thinking of the villagers and barren homes that he had fled to, he felt very uncomfortable, and instead of sitting and waiting, he should take the initiative to inquire about the enemy's situation. So he pulled Mo Xi out, and the two discussed, went to the general's camp, and asked for orders to inquire about the news.
Zhang Chengjian was sitting in front of the wide case, carefully studying a map, listening to the two explain their intentions, and said, "Okay, that's what I mean." The monster is good at haunting after dark, just in time to detect their movements. This is a map of the distribution of cemeteries in this area, you can take a look at it first and familiarize yourself with it. ”
When the two of them heard this, they looked at the map, and saw that it was covered with bulges like mountain bags, densely packed, and it was a cemetery.
After the two of them looked at it for a while, Zhang Chengjian said: "In the past, those demon beasts would always come out to make trouble, but since we went to the cemetery last time to search, there has been no movement, there must be something strange in this." ”
Mo Xi said: "These demon beasts are too ferocious, what I am afraid of is that they will shift their positions, quietly cross the blockade line, and attack the common people." ”
Zhang Chengjian said: "That's what I'm afraid of, so we must find out the situation as soon as possible." The two of you are only here to find out the news, and you must not clash with the demon beasts head-on. ”
The two said yes in unison, took the token and walked out of the account.
Out of the blockade, I saw the fire in the camp getting farther and farther away, and the scenery in the field gradually became clearer. If it is a peaceful and prosperous time, it should be lush farmland at this time, but at this time it is barren and overgrown with weeds. The night outlined the outline of the hamlet, and it was pitch black, with no human breath in sight - in fact, it was empty.
The road in the field had long been flooded with wild grass, and the two walked carefully in the grass. After walking for a while, he saw a big tree in front of him, Mo Xi jumped on the branch, looked around, and didn't make a sound, just pointed to Haibao. Haibao also jumped on the branches, saw the bulging graves in the distance, and knew that they were the graveyards. The two of them observed the movement of the cemetery from a distance in the tree, and for a while, seeing no sign of anything unusual, jumped down from the tree and quietly walked towards the cemetery.
There was silence in the graveyard too, with the occasional terrible cry from the night owl. The two carefully searched in the cemetery, the entire cemetery was empty, how could there be any trace of the demon beast?
It's the same with going to another graveyard to find it.
Where have they gone? Could it be that someone has found a hiding place and a new nest?
The two of them were puzzled, but they saw that there seemed to be a different movement in the wild grass in the distance, and Haibao's eyesight was excellent, staring at himself, it was something running forward quickly.
The two hurriedly used their kung fu to catch up, and when they got closer, they found that it was a group of demon beasts, a dozen or so in total, and they were hurrying away. The two followed, and those demon beasts didn't seem to notice it, just blindly rushed forward.
After walking for about four or five miles, I found a group of demon beasts coming and meeting with the dozen demon beasts just now. Seven or eight miles ago, I saw that these demon beasts suddenly increased their speed, and I heard some noisy sounds in my ears, as if there were thousands of demon beasts moving around.
"These brutes seem to be going to the same place. Mo Xi said in a low voice.
A map suddenly appeared in Haibao's mind, and he immediately understood that their destination was that place! The two blurted out almost simultaneously: "Mass grave!"
A mass grave is a large cemetery overgrown with weeds and piles of bones. It turned out that there had been a plague in the Demon Domain, and a large number of dead people were buried there. There are often wild beasts there, and ordinary people don't go to that place at all, and it's also a good place for those beasts to hide. Now these monsters obviously want to concentrate in that place, to avoid the search of the cemetery one by one.
Mo Xi said: "Great, there are too many graveyards, the demon beasts are too scattered, and they are gathered together." ”
The two chased after the demon beasts, and sure enough, they went straight in the direction of the mass grave. After a while, I saw more and more demon beasts gathering towards the mass grave in groups, the speed was much slower than before, but it was neat and orderly, as if thousands of troops were marching in an organized manner, and in the night, it was dark and oppressive.
The two of them couldn't help but gasp. Are these still brutes? These are simply trained soldiers! And they are far more physically than ordinary soldiers, and they are even more desperate than human beings.
Suddenly, a gust of wind blew, and a murderous aura approached invisibly. The two of them suddenly became alert, knowing that they had been discovered by those demon beasts. The weapons were shot at the same time, and the two of them looked around back to back, avoiding the enemy on their backs. Several demon beasts have been outflanked from the front and back at the same time, and it seems that they have also seen that the two teenagers in front of them are not easy to deal with, so they have adopted the tactics of attacking from multiple ways.
The demon beasts surrounded the two of them in the middle, slowly narrowing the encirclement. The two of them just stood still, their weapons in their hands, and maintained an alert posture.
Haibao said: "Rush out from the northwest direction, don't fall in love with the battle, get out as soon as possible!" There are fewer demon beasts in the northwest direction, and it is far away from the direction of the mass grave, so rushing out from here is the best choice.
Mo Xi agreed: "Understood!"
The two of them spoke, but their feet did not move. It is necessary to know that only by not moving can you hold the momentum, the enemy who does not move is the most terrifying, and the person who does not move is accumulating energy, ready, and will give the enemy a fatal blow as soon as he strikes.
Seeing this, those demon beasts only watched and did not dare to attack rashly.
Finally, a demon beast couldn't hold its breath and took the lead in roaring and rushing over. Haibao's Nine Swords and Mo Xi's Ruthless Ring drew a bright trajectory in the night, rising and falling among the demon beasts, and in an instant, a scream rang out, and the smell of blood spread in all directions.
The monsters fell to the ground one after another, but the smell of blood and screams attracted more monsters to rush over. The two of them retreated while killing, you must know that there are so many demon beasts, not to mention hand-to-hand combat, even if they don't resist, they line up and let the two of them kill one by one, and they have to be tired and lying down.
Suddenly had an idea in his heart, shouted, got up and jumped over the heads of those demon beasts, his feet were lit one after another, and with a little strength, he moved forward several feet. Behind him, Mo Xi drew a scoop with a gourd, and the two of them instantly rushed out of the encirclement.
When those demon beasts saw the two of them jumping overhead, they immediately turned their heads, and Hula chased after them. The two of them hurried forward.
The ground in front of him shook, the dust was flying, and there was a very uncomfortable feeling of foreign objects in the nostrils of his eyes, and he stopped abruptly.
A huge monster stood in front of him, as if it had fallen from the sky. It was twice the size of a man, like a giant male lion, standing majestically in front of them, but its face was much more hideous than that of a male lion, and its eyes shone with blood-red light.
The monsters screaming behind them seemed to be also suppressed by the lion-type monster in front of them, stopped, raised their heads one after another, and looked up at the lion-type monster.
These brutes are really cunning enough, it turns out that they deliberately left a killer feature in this direction, it seems that they do not intend to let these two "spies" get out alive.
The lion-like monster raised its head to the sky and hissed, and the sound shook the four wilds, as if it didn't seem to pay attention to the two people in front of him who were much smaller than it. Sharp fangs were baring from the bloody mouth, and liquid was dripping from the corners of the mouth.
The two of them suppressed the nausea that was tumbling in their hearts and looked at this monster with cold eyes.
The lion-shaped monster pounced on a hungry tiger, and the two of them moved and hurriedly flashed to both sides.
The lion-shaped monster fluttered into the air, and then its body spun, and its tail swept across, surging towards the two of them at the same time, and they heard the sound of the wild grass on the ground. The two jumped up at the same time and landed in unison.
The lion-shaped monster probably didn't expect these two people to be so difficult to deal with, and rolled on the spot one after another, as if crazy, and kept attacking the two of them. The two dodged left and right, and the monster suddenly retracted his body, turned sharply, raised his palms, and slapped it on the top of the two heads, because the force was too great, bringing the sound of whirring wind.
The two of them were taken aback, they didn't expect the body of such a huge monster to be so flexible, and they hurriedly rolled and dodged. The monster's palms fell to the ground, and two deep handprints were suddenly imprinted on the ground.
The two were reunited.
The monster seemed to see the surprise of the two, and let out a long roar of triumph, the stench of the bloody mouth that made the two almost sick.
However, before its scream could stop, the two of them struck at the same time, stabbing at the gaping mouth like an arrow off the string.
It must be known that the Nine Swords and the Ruthless Ring are both superior weapons, blowing hair and breaking hair, sharpening iron like mud, not to mention the ** of demon beasts!
The Nine Swords stabbed deep into the lion's throat, mercilessly ringing like a ball of thorns, twisting the lionon's mouth and tongue into a pulp.
The roar stopped abruptly, and black blood flowed down the mouth of the blood basin, silently falling on the grass opposite, and the strong smell of blood permeated. The huge body fell to the ground with a bang.
After a moment of silence, the monsters came to their senses and rushed towards the two of them in a frenzy.
Death and blood only doubled their bestiality, anger and hatred burned their eyes as red as fire.
The two of them rushed forward while eliminating the demon beast that was the first to catch up.
They must not be led to the camp where the army is stationed!
Hypertherm looked up into the distance and noticed a large forest in the distance, and suddenly had an idea. Xiang Mo Xi said, "Go to the woods!" Mo Xi agreed, and the two of them galloped towards the forest together, followed by countless demon beasts that were burned by anger and hatred.
When he entered the woods, he immediately jumped to the trees, tossing and turning, and left those demon beasts behind.
Fortunately, those monsters don't climb and jump, they just run around in the woods without a head. More and more monsters poured in, and after a while, the whole forest was filled with the howls of monsters, startling the birds to fly away from the branches.
Some of the monsters began to bite and pound the trees hard. Taking advantage of their confusion, the two of them hurried out of the woods, made a turn, and then headed in the direction of the barracks.
