Chapter 294 Volume C: Crowds of people, scalp numb
Before Chen Huaisheng and the others could react, a huge noise could be heard from outside the mountain gate.
Chen Huaisheng and others rushed out in a hurry.
Standing at the entrance of the Taoist house, I saw that the mountain gate archway a few miles away was already crowded with people.
Thousands of people were rushing in from the entrance of the mountain valley. It was obvious that the situation was out of control.
Neither Tang Jingtian nor Chen Huaisheng knew exactly what the Black Turtle and the so-called sea beasts that followed the Black Turtle were, how threatening and powerful they were, and how many there were.
When Yu Fengqian first talked to them, he didn't expect this scene to happen, so he just said a few words casually, without specifying the details.
It's not a good idea to have them hide in the mountains now, but it would be a bit embarrassing to have them deal with it head-on, but worry about self-defeating and needing people from the Holy Fire Sect to rescue them in the end.
But at this time, they couldn't think more about it.
There are still thousands of islanders on Peach Blossom Island, and they are all mortals. Needless to say, the black turtles are also defenseless against the sea beasts crawling out of the sea.
Escape into the mountains and seek shelter from the Holy Fire Sect is their only choice.
"What should I do?" Tang Jingtian has never experienced this kind of thing. He is a guest in a foreign country, but his host is not there. How should he deal with it?
"First go to the entrance of the mountain gate to see what kind of soldiers and crabs those so-called sea beasts are." Chen Huaisheng scratched his head, "The Holy Fire Sect has an island protection array and a mountain protection array, but it seems that they can't stop these sea beasts.
insect,……"
"That's all we can do. Yun Chun and Miss Min will stay here for the time being and be prepared." Tang Jingtian thought for a while, "You prepare the magic talismans and be fully prepared. Once there are beasts and insects approaching, immediately kill them.
Kill and retreat at the same time, and never be tempted to fight."
The two girls were a little nervous upon hearing this.
Gu Yunchun is even better. After all, she is also at the sixth level of Qi Refining, but Min Qingyu is far behind. The third level of Qi Refining is quite difficult when facing the most powerful types of first-order monsters.
As for the actual strength of these beasts and insects that landed from the sea, no one has seen it before and it is unknown.
Tang Jingtian and Chen Huaisheng told the two girls to be prepared for the situation, and then rode down the wind.
Several miles passed in the blink of an eye, and when they arrived in front of the archway, they saw that someone from the Holy Fire Sect was already forming a formation to prepare for the attack.
The mortals all retreated into the mountains, while a foundation-building monk was arranging for the monks in the sect to set up defenses along the archway to the valley entrances on both sides and to the foot of the mountain.
There are not many disciples of the Holy Fire Sect, around 200, but a large part of the elite have already gone to Yanshan, leaving most of them as lower-level disciples.
This can be seen from the number of people posted at the mountain gate.
In addition to a foundation-building monk, there was a ninth-level Qi Refining monk, an eighth-level Qi Refining monk, and a seventh-level Qi Refining monk, who was the disciple who initially accompanied Yu Fengqian to receive him.
The remaining twenty or thirty people were mostly monks in the middle and early stages of Qi refining.
Seeing the arrival of Chen Huaisheng and Tang Jingtian, the monk surnamed Ning quickly spoke to the leading Foundation Establishment monk.
The monk probably also knew the identities of Tang Jingtian and Chen Huaisheng. He came over with the monk surnamed Ning. After greeting him, he said bluntly: "Two fellow Taoists, the situation is very bad now. In addition to our side, there are also found in the east.
Although the Red Chi appears, although it is still twenty or thirty miles away from our coast, the Red Chi is more harmful than the black tortoise. Once they land, we can only delay and try to buy time as much as possible, and it is difficult to protect the mountain with a large formation.
Can't stop the raging Red Chi..."
Chen Huaisheng's heart skipped a beat. This was really a hemp rope that was cut at the smallest detail. The more he was afraid of something, the more likely it would be.
As soon as the attack on Yanshan Road was launched here, Black Turtle landed, and Red Chi approached the island, bringing so many sea beasts to land.
Chen Huaisheng glanced at Tang Jingtian, who signaled Chen Huaisheng to respond with his eyes.
Chen Huaisheng was not polite: "Fellow Daoist Song, we are visiting Guidao. Naturally, we cannot stand by and watch when something like this happens. If there is anything we need to do, as long as we can do it, please feel free to tell us."
The monk surnamed Song was not polite, "The black turtle here has landed on the coast and is currently heading this way, but its speed is not fast. It is estimated that it will take night to crawl here, but there are many beasts and insects following it.
These things are far more harmful than black turtles, and they move quickly. Both mortals and Taoists are their prey. Now they have approached a place only five miles away from here. What we have to do now is to kill as many as possible.
These shrimps and crabs buy time for these mortals to retreat. There are more than a thousand mortals over there retreating from the west, which may be slower, so we have to rush forward to intercept and block for a while..."
Chen Huaisheng and Tang Jingtian exchanged glances and said in a deep voice: "Fellow Daoist Song, we have been on land before and have never seen these sea beasts and insects. We don't know much about them, so we also want to know about the lethality and harm of these beasts and insects.
How strong is it, how many are there,..."
The monk surnamed Song hesitated for a moment and sighed: "There are so many kinds of beasts and insects in the sea that I can't really explain them all at the moment. Some of them may not even be seen by us, but most of them are like vampire beach crabs with double thorns and claws.
The combat capabilities of winged shrimps, moon crabs, and King Duokui thieves are not bad. For example, the combat capabilities of vampire beach crabs and spiny clawed double-winged shrimps are slightly inferior to those of the wolf mountain beasts, but they are also better.
Judging from their longevity, some of them can live for a long time, which should not be underestimated. The key is that their numbers are too large. If they move, dozens or hundreds of them will swarm in, and almost all of them have the ability to spray venom..."
Chen Huaisheng and Tang Jingtian felt relieved when they heard that the Vampire Beach Crab and Spiny Clawed Double-winged Shrimp were inferior in combat power to those of the Wolf Mountain Crawfish. However, when they heard the move, dozens of them appeared, and their scalps suddenly felt numb.
Dozens of them? Who can bear this?
If there are three or five wolves in a group, they can directly surround and kill a middle Qi Refiner.
There are dozens or even hundreds of them at every turn. Even if their fighting power is not as good as that of a wolf, their fighting power is that of a ghost-beaked tit. That is too terrifying. Dozens or hundreds of ghost-beaked tits can easily peck to death a monk who is at the fourth or fifth level of Qi training.
.
Seeing that both Chen Huaisheng and Tang Jingtian were a little shocked, the monk surnamed Song quickly made up for it: "Actually, it's not as scary as imagined. Let's deal with it together and prepare enough spiritual talismans in case something unpredictable happens.
A means of escape,..."
Hearing what Zhu Ji, surnamed Song, said, both Chen Huaisheng and Tang Jingtian felt that the situation might not be optimistic. They didn't know how aggressive and how numerous the various shrimps, crabs, beasts and insects were.
The group of people was divided into three groups. Foundation Establishment led a group to the front, another Qi Refining Ninth Level led a group to the east side, Tang Jingtian and several other mid-level Qi Refiners followed, and another group was Qi Refining.
The eighth-level Qi and monks named Ning, plus Chen Huaisheng and four other monks at the sixth and fourth-level Qi refining, formed a semi-arc from the west and pushed outward quickly.
After walking less than four miles, I saw mortals escaping from the west one after another. All of them were panting and exhausted. After discovering Chen Huaisheng and the others, they breathed a sigh of relief.
The monk surnamed Ning stepped forward and asked briefly, then his expression changed slightly.
"What's wrong?" The eighth-level Qi Refiner named Zhou saw that the monk named Ning had a strange look on his face and asked quickly.
"It is said that there are also many spiny clawed shrimps crawling ashore from the west beach. They are so dense that there is no end in sight. There are slightly less vampire beach crabs, but there are a lot of them. They don't even dare to stop and they just run here.
, several people who ran slowly were devoured by these beasts and insects..."
With one sentence, all the people in this group were shocked, and there was no end in sight? How much is this, tens of thousands?
If that's the case, what's the point of blocking it? It's better to run away quickly.
"How could there be so many?" The monk surnamed Zhou couldn't believe it. "That's not the place where black turtles landed. Even if there were, there wouldn't be so many of them. Let's ask clearly, how many there are!"
You can't do it without asking clearly. If there are really thousands of people as that guy said, then it's better for these people not to risk their lives. Others can't save them and they are trapped first.
The monk surnamed Ning, Chen Huaisheng and others quickly stopped and stopped several mortals who were escaping to ask about the situation. Based on everyone's descriptions, there should be thousands of spiny claw double-wing shrimps and vampire beach crabs, as well as some
Other beasts and insects, this made everyone feel a little more relieved.
Although thousands of them are scary, the speed of shrimps and crabs is not very fast. As long as you master the rhythm, stop and kill for a while, and then retreat according to the progress, it should still be feasible.
A group of seven people quickly crossed the hillside in front and ran forward. Soon there was another group of mortals in front of them, about two to three hundred people, running frantically for their lives.
From time to time, stragglers were pulled up, but soon they heard screams, indicating that they had been poisoned.
Only then did Chen Huaisheng see flying beasts and insects in the air, like giant dragonflies, flying up and down constantly. As soon as they fell into the crowd, someone would scream and fall to the ground.
In addition, on the other side, red giant crabs as big as baskets are constantly crawling out from behind the hillside. Their crawling speed is equal to the running speed of ordinary people, and they can run rampant anytime and anywhere. They are quite flexible. This should be the Vampire Beach.
Crab.
Chen Huaisheng took a deep breath and couldn't help but get goosebumps all over his body.
He just took a rough look and calculated that there were at least hundreds of vampire beach crabs, and there were at least thousands of spiny-clawed double-winged shrimps that were constantly flying up and down from the ground, and it was not clear what was behind them.
How many.
What's even more worrying is that crowds of people are emerging one after another from the west. Apparently, the more than a thousand people mentioned by Zhu Ji named Song must be this group of people.
If we can't block these beasts and insects that are still climbing and flying towards us on this hillside, once the intersection is blocked, we will probably all die from the mouths of these shrimps and crabs.
