Chapter 30: The Second Battle

readx; As soon as Yue Xin left, two people flashed out of the darkness, Zhang Chengjian and Sheng Zuoyu. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info Haibao briefly recounted what happened just now, Zhang Chengjian said: "You go back and rest, don't make a noise about this matter, let me deal with it." ”

Du Xueyi took out a small bottle from his arms, poured out a pill from it, put it in Haibao's mouth, and said, "This is a medicine to restore qi and blood, you lost too much blood just now, and you took it to replenish blood qi." ”

Haibao originally thought that it was okay, but she was afraid that she would worry, so she swallowed the pill and said, "Ah, I feel much better!"

Du Xueyi said with a smile: "How can it work so quickly!" Seeing that he was fine, he let go of his heart, stuffed the medicine bottle in his hand into his hand, and said, "There are a few more here, take them and eat them all!"

Haibao said: "I don't need it, such a good medicine should be used at a critical moment, let me eat it in vain, it's too wasteful!"

Saint Zuo Yuyi stretched out his hand and said, "Haibao doesn't want it, why don't you give it to me!"

Du Xueyi snatched the medicine back, stuffed it back into his arms, and said, "Hmph, when you can use it one day, I'll give it to you!"

Haibao suddenly remembered that Xiao Yue had been frightened by a small insect raised by Yue Xin that day, why did he ignore this matter? It seems that this ice silkworm has been taken by Yue Xin all along. He knew very little about these crooked things, thinking that Du Xueyi must know about it, so he asked: "Yi'er, what is so good about this ice silkworm, it is worth exchanging many people's lives?

Du Xueyi said: "This ice silkworm is extremely precious, haven't you heard of it? The insect body can be used for magic tools, and it can also be used for medicinal purposes; the silk spit out is even more precious, just like my acacia scarf, which is woven with ice silk, which is extremely tough and invasive; if it is raised well, and finally gets the ice silkworm beads, ordinary people can come back to life after eating it, and those who practice martial arts eat it, and the internal force increases exponentially, do you say it is precious or not?"

Saint Zuoyu said: "I heard that this ice silkworm is extremely difficult to raise, but I didn't know that it actually feeds on human blood. I wonder how much human blood it has to drink to grow up?"

Du Xueyi said: "It's not all like this. It's just that I don't know why, this time Aunt Yue wants to feed it with human blood. ”

At the moment, they each returned the account. Haibao lay down, but couldn't sleep, thinking about what had just happened, and felt a little unbelievable in a trance. That Lingshan is the first immortal mountain in the world, which makes people all over the world respect like gods, but how do you know that you can raise such a vicious thing. What's the difference between this and those harmful monsters?

When he got up the next day, Haibao felt refreshed and did not feel any discomfort, thinking about his age, what is the loss of a little blood?

Haibao walked around the tent and found that the morale of the army today did not seem to be quite the same, and he was jubilant everywhere, wondering, Xiao Yue ran over from afar, and said with a happy face: "Brother Haibao, the blood-sucking demon beast has been caught!"

Haibao was stunned for a moment and said, "Where?"

Xiao Yue said: "It's spread everywhere in this barracks, don't you know? I was caught by the general himself last night, and many soldiers on patrol saw it, and the corpse was hanging on the high platform over there!"

As Hypertherm walked over, he saw a huge bird hanging high on the platform, like a giant eagle, but instead of feathers, it was covered with scales. It was covered in blood, its head drooping, and it was clearly dead.

I don't know where to find such a monster, and I don't know how to deal with last night's incident, but there is no doubt that Zhang Chengjian chose to make a big thing small, and in this way, he covered up the matter of the ice silkworm.

Haibao had many doubts in his heart and ran to see the general.

Seeing Zhang Chengjian, Haibao said eagerly: "Master, what is the matter with that strange eagle?

Zhang Chengjian said: "What else can we do? First calm the hearts of the army, so that everyone can work together and focus on the demon beasts, and the rest can be put aside." ”

Haibao said: "But human life is at stake, what if the ice silkworm comes out to harm people again? The appetite of the ice silkworm is getting bigger and bigger, today it is one or two people, tomorrow it may be ten hundred." ”

Zhang Chengjian said: "For the lives of tens of millions of people, I can't care about these ten hundred people." ”

Haibao was surprised: "Master, how do you say this?"

Zhang Chengjian said: "According to intelligence, a large number of demon beasts have gathered in mass graves in recent days, and the number is much higher than last time. If we don't go, they'll come soon. Lingshan mana can be borrowed, saving thousands of troops and horses, at this time, it is obviously unwise to turn friends into enemies, otherwise, it will only add more senseless sacrifices. Moreover, the ice silkworm is an extremely powerful magic weapon, and it needs to be sacrificed with the blood of a living person, which is also a helpless move. ”

Haibao said: "Is that ice silkworm actually a magic weapon used by the Lord of Qiu Mountain to deal with demon beasts?"

Zhang Chengjian said: "Exactly." ”

Haibao said angrily: "Why do you have to use the blood sacrifice of living people? Could it be that the world's number one decent family also does this thing that cares about people's lives?"

Zhang Chengjian said: "The distinction between good and evil is based on the overall situation. Don't abandon the great beauty of people with small evils. ”

Haibao knows that Zhang Chengjian and Qiu Wangchuan must have had a confrontation last night, Zhang Chengjian acted steadily and relaxedly, and what he did must be the best choice at present.

Suddenly, a soldier came to report: "General Qiyu, a large number of demon beasts are attacking from the northeast, and they have reached twenty miles away." ”

Zhang Chengjian said: "How many?"

The soldier said: "Looking into the distance, there are mountains all over the field, and it is estimated that there are no less than 50,000." ”

Twenty miles away, with the speed of the demon beast's travel, it will definitely be able to arrive in half an hour. Even if it is a large group of people, the speed of travel is slow, and it will definitely be able to arrive in an hour.

Zhang Chengjian waved his hand: "Beat the drum, raise the account!"

People from all walks of life quickly arrived, discussed it, and quickly set it up.

Because they had already made preparations, they didn't feel rushed at all, and they saw that the soldiers were preparing for battle in a nervous and orderly manner, the blockade line was tightly guarded, and the soldiers were in place, just waiting for the arrival of the demon beast. The masters of all walks of life were neatly dressed, prepared their weapons, and went to meet the battle, and behind them were a large group of men and horses, marching to the northeast together.

After walking for four or five miles, I heard a chaotic sound, like the wind blowing through the grassland. The sound became louder and louder, and he got closer and closer, and he saw the demon beasts all over the mountains, black and pressing, like a wave, rushing over, and everywhere he went, the grass was crushed without a trace.

Although I already knew that there were a lot of demon beasts coming this time, I was still taken aback when I saw the scene in front of me. The demon beasts gave up their usual style of sneak attacks at night and chose to attack on a large scale during the day, obviously making full preparations.

The monsters gradually approached, the archers took their bows and shot arrows, and the arrows rained down into the beasts, some of the monsters fell, some of the monsters were still rushing forward with arrows, and more of them rushed over with the corpses of their companions.

Due to the number of demon beasts and the long battle line, it is no longer possible to defend all directions like when attacking mass graves. The monsters rushed over like a tide, and merged with the army behind them, and the bows and arrows were useless. In an instant, the sound of killing shook the sky.
