Chapter 11: The House of Sacrifice

Long.

Zhang Lao opened his mouth and asked:

"The Blood Maple Forest has been quiet for more than ten years, and now the demon beasts are suddenly appearing, is it related to the Sacrifice Palace?"

Zheng Junze sneered and said:

"Only the sacrificial hall has this dog guts, I just went to Ge Feiyan's side, and the attack and killing of the five squads was to open a breakthrough for the demon beast, but fortunately, Ge Feiyan reacted quickly and chased outward, and finally killed a third-order demon beast. ”

Zhang Lao asked worriedly, "Are you sure it's one that ran out?"

Zheng Junze nodded, and his already dark face became more and more gloomy in the dark night.

"Nine times out of ten, it's the snakes who are plotting something. ”

After Zheng Junze finished speaking, he threw a big punch on the trunk, and with a bang, a big hole appeared in the trunk with a diameter of one zhang.

"By the way, the knife marks on the tree over there are old ones. Zheng Junze turned to the conversation and asked.

"Well, I just broke through the third order a few days ago. Zhang Lao nodded and said.

"Let's go back to Wuweiwei together after this purging is over, with your old strength and meritorious deeds, a military candidate can't run. Zheng Junze said very firmly.

Jing Fei saw that Zhang Lao was hesitant, and only after a long time did he reply:

"Besides, now I just want to raise the fruit well. ”

Zheng Junze nodded after hearing this, and did not speak again.

Next, every half an hour, each team would report the situation to Zheng Junze, Jing Fei curled up on the trunk of the tree with dark circles under his eyes, and there was nothing to do all night.

The next morning, the sky was hazy, and the forest was still like night, under the urging of Zhang Lao, Jing Fei casually ate some dried meat and moved forward.

The Blood Maple Forest has a radius of more than 500 miles, and yesterday the three roads of people and horses each advanced more than 100 miles, and Jing Fei estimated that he would encounter demon beasts tonight.

The team slowly advanced, and the water bladder that Jing Fei brought was already empty, but fortunately, Zheng Junze's Qiankun bag had all kinds of wine, vegetables and fruits.

Along the way, there were a lot of rabbits, pheasants, and deer, all of which were packed into Zheng Junze's Qiankun bag, and when the sky turned dark, Jing Fei was collecting a herb under the guidance of Zhang Lao.

Herbs pay attention to the seasonality, and the herbs collected in a specific season will have a better effect, and some special herbs will have a counter-seasonal effect.

There is also a special collection of some whole plants can be used in medicine, which needs to be dug out together with the roots, some only need stalks, and the roots are cut off to leave a way to live, and some only need to collect fruits or petals, and other parts are useless.

Just as Jing Fei was digging up the herbs with a shovel, there was a faint roar from the southwest, followed by the sound of trees breaking and falling to the ground.

Zheng Junze grinned, and the prey came to the door.

At this time, the echo insect on the waist made a sound, and it was the twenty-fifth team encountering the beast.

Zheng Junze put away his smile, resoluteness and evil aura appeared on his dark face, and he commanded:

"Twenty-five squads encounter demon beasts, twenty to thirty squads, quickly go to support, one to nineteen squads, thirty to thirty squads scatter to fill the gap. ”

After that, he beckoned Zhang Lao and Jing Fei to go over and take a look.

Zhang Lao walked to Jing Fei's side, grabbed his belt and carried Jing Fei and followed Zheng Junze to leap in the forest.

It seems that there is preparation ahead, and it may also be that after breaking through the third order, Zhang Lao's grasp of strength is more subtle, and Jing Fei is not aware of the bumps.

The roaring sound and impact sound became louder and louder, Zhang Lao stood still, Jing Fei fell to the ground, and a beast in front of him was doing a battle of trapped beasts, this beast was not much different from the size of the last encounter, it must be a third-order undoubtedly.

Opposite the beast is a five-person team, and at this time the body is scarred, and it should be only a flesh wound if they have any spare strength to deal with it. There are squads on both sides and behind the beast to intercept, and the team cooperates tacitly, and the inside of the team is even more exciting.

Whenever the beast shoots its tongue to attack, the four people behind it will quickly hide behind the shield, and when the tongue is withdrawn, they will attack.

Jing Fei noticed that one of the crossbowmen was skillful, and after hiding in the shield, he fired an arrow and drove his tongue into the ground, and the beast let out a scream, and pulled back its tongue with force, and the ground suddenly hit a large area of dirt.

The next support team arrived one after another, and more and more scars appeared on the body of the beast, including crossbow arrows, gun marks, and knife wounds, which did not seem to bring much damage to the beast, but aroused ferocity.

The beast's sharp claws and steel whip-like tail struck the heavy shield again and again, and the shieldman's strong body ploughed a two-foot-deep ravine in the ground, and each time it hit, sparks flew and the sound shook the wilderness.

The slight depression in the middle of the thick shield has begun to deform, and he glanced sideways at Zheng Junze, seeing that Zheng Junze had no intention of making a move, and secretly thought that the team should have a killer feature.

Sure enough, after a stick of incense, all the support teams were in place, and the ten squads surrounded the beasts and cooperated with each other to attack at the right time.

The beast became more and more restless and flustered, its scarlet eyes seemed to be dripping blood, and Zheng Junze was clutching the handle of the knife as if waiting for something.

After a few breaths, the beast's eyes suddenly flashed red.

Zhang Lao quickly shouted:

"Broken tongue stinging. ”

As soon as the words started, Zheng Junze next to him had disappeared in place, and at the same time as the red light in the beast's eyes disappeared, his big mouth opened, and Jing Fei saw a flash of red light in the air, and then heard a loud bang, and Zheng Junze robbed the river and cut off the veins on the red light.

"Hands-on. Zheng Junze snorted violently.

Ten squads attacked in pairs and at the same time, guns and crossbows were fired together, and the screams were incessant.

After a cup of tea, the mountain beast with no skin and blood scars fell to the ground with a bang.

Jing Fei let out a long breath, and his violently beating heart couldn't be calmed down for a long time, this was the power of the battle array, and a group of first- and second-order cultivators had stubbornly ground a third-order demon beast to death.

Zheng Junze only made one knife from beginning to end, and this knife saved his subordinates and also cut off the last hope of the beast.

Demons eat people, people kill demons, and heaven is a good reincarnation. Jing Fei actually sympathized with this beast, it was too tragic.

Zheng Junze picked up two scarlet tongues from the ground and looked sorry, the beast is the most valuable tongue, it can be used in medicine and refining magic weapons, and the value of this broken two pieces will be greatly reduced.

He walked to the corpse of the beast and kicked it, turned back to the soldiers, and said:

"When we get out of the Blood Maple Forest, let's have a good meal. ”

When the soldiers heard this, they cheered.

Putting the beast corpse into the Qiankun bag, Zheng Junze led everyone to continue to move forward.

The encirclement is getting smaller and smaller, and several other groups of people and horses have also encountered demon beasts.

Compared with the Tianxiao Battalion, the overall strength of the county guards is much worse after all, and a group of soldiers are responsible for intercepting the escape of the demon beast, and the county lieutenant Wu Dongxu is holding a silver spear and fighting head-on with the beast.

Half an hour later, Wu Dongxu slowly pulled out the silver spear that pierced the beast's head, and blood dripped down the head of the spear, so he was not domineering.

Ge Feiyan didn't encounter a beast along the way, and it is estimated that he killed one last night and shocked the others.

Zheng Junze walked in such a hurry that Jing Fei had to get on Zhang Lao's shoulder again.

Zhang Lao explained that the loot of this hunt is distributed according to the contribution, and those who participate in the battle will of course have more points than those who do not participate, and those who kill the demon beast in the end can get half of the loot, and the rest is calculated according to the damage caused.

Jing Fei thought for a while and said:

"In other words, I can get more by throwing a stone at a monster?"

The surrounding soldiers laughed when they heard this, and Zhang Lao said angrily:

"If you're not ashamed, you can try it later. ”

Jing Fei suddenly felt embarrassed, and said with a haha:

"Just kidding, you can't lose anyone's face and your old face. ”

There was a violent fighting sound in front of him, Zheng Junze's eyes lit up and he rushed over quickly, it should be the Divine Protector Mansion fighting with the demon beast in front of him, if he can take food from the tiger's mouth, he will have more face if he says it.

Zhao Mingde, the Divine Protector Mansion, shuttled back and forth around the beast, and the golden streamer would bring up a scoop of blood every time it passed by the beast, and as time went by, the beast was already at the end of the crossbow.

Just as Zhang Mingde was about to use the sword cutting technique, a figure suddenly appeared behind a tree trunk not far from the beast.

The figure dragged the knife from under the belly of the beast, the hand up, the knife fell, the knife light was mixed with bright red blood, like a white rice paper on the pen sprinkled plum blossoms.

At this time, a golden wave of light fell, and Zhao Mingde's sword cutting technique also fell on the beast, blood spurted, and the beast shattered into four petals.

The man with the knife shook his wrist, returned the long knife to its sheath, turned around, and smiled:

"Lao Zhao, I've been to Fireworks Willow Lane a lot in the past few years, and my strength hasn't improved. ”

This person is Zheng Junze.

Zhao Mingde's face was pale, and the corners of his forehead were bruised, looking at the face like the bottom of the pot, he couldn't wait to slash down with a sword.

"Are you Tianxiao Camp so shameless? Zhao Mingde gritted his teeth and said.

Zheng Junze scratched his head and thought for a while, and said humbly:

"If you think about it carefully, our Tianxiao camp seems to be really shameless, just have meat to eat, haha. ”

With that, he walked to the corpse of the beast and put away two of them.

Footsteps sounded in the distance, Zhang Lao Jing Fei and his entourage rushed over, Jing Fei saw Zheng Junze put away half of the beast corpse, and knew that the food was successful.

Zhao Mingde saw that someone was coming again, and he was afraid that he would not be able to hang his face, so he rolled up the other half of the corpse on the ground with a wave of his big sleeves and fled into the flying boat.

Although it was the second time he had seen the monk escape, Jing Fei's face was still full of envy, and then he thought of something, and his face suddenly became ugly.

Zhao Mingde is the Divine Protector Mansion in Chengping County, today Zheng Junze robbed other people's spoils, patted his ass and returned to the county seat, but he still has to practice in the spiritual monastery for three years.

After all, Zhao Mingde saved his life, but now he is with his opponent, and it will be embarrassing to meet Zhao Mingde in the future.

"It is not too late for a gentleman to take revenge for ten years, and it is still a hundred years for a monk to repay his kindness. ”

Let's talk about it when the cultivation is high, Jing Fei secretly said.

An hour later, the other two groups of people arrived here, and the four groups of people gathered, reported the situation of all parties, and then joined together to walk all the way out of the forest.

So far, the purge has come to a successful end.
