Chapter 127 The mountain rain demon is causing trouble, and the valley ghost blocks the road
Rumble…
There were thunder and lightning in the sky, heavy rain poured down, and the lightning like fire trees tore through the gray and black clouds, and the vast mountains and forests were covered with snow.
"Quickly, dig out the drainage ditch!"
"Go and bring that thick log!"
"Protect the barracks carefully..."
In the mountain camp, the soldiers were busy cleaning up the floods.
In the Chinese army's tent, Wang Xuan frowned as he stared at the map.
Opening up wasteland is never an easy task, otherwise the imperial court would not let go of its financial power and allow various forces to control the military government.
But the difficulty is far greater than imagined.
This is the third day in the mountain.
As soon as they entered the forest, various sneak attacks followed one after another, including setting fires, setting off poisonous bees, overturning cliffs and falling rocks, and all kinds of sorcery. The evil spirits hid in the dark and continued to harass.
The good thing is that the sergeants have already refined their evil spirits into their bodies, and their bodies are strong. Coupled with the protection of military formations and fierce tiger military patterns, they are no longer afraid of these small tricks.
Wang Xuan was not in a hurry. Quan thought it was a training exercise and ordered the Sou Shan Army to fight with him. After killing more than a dozen monsters in a row, the enemy temporarily retreated.
But monsters are only one of them, and the ever-changing environment is also a threat.
The weather suddenly changed yesterday. In order to prevent accidents, we temporarily moved the camp. After being so busy, we finally have a place to stay.
Seeing that Wang Xuan was in a bad mood, Mo Huaixian quickly held up his hands and advised: "Sir, after all, this is our first time, so it is reasonable to have some difficulties."
"It doesn't matter."
Wang Xuan turned around and looked solemn, "As a general, you have to observe the weather, time and place, and discern the dangers of yin and yang. It's because I didn't think carefully and underestimated these furry and armored beasts."
Guo Shouqing shook off the dust and said, "Sir, it is difficult for demons to cultivate, but once their spiritual wisdom is opened, it is not easy for those who can survive the bloody battle in this wilderness, not to mention that some old demons are also proficient in human warfare, so they should not be underestimated."
Wang Xuan solemnly handed over his hand: "I have been taught, Taoist Master, the Taiyi Sect protects the destiny of the country, what good methods are there to clean up the demon nest?"
Guo Shouqing's eyes flashed with murderous intent, "Send experts to investigate, and then set up five thunder bombs on the altar!"
Wang Xuan: "..."
At this moment, Ah Fu suddenly raised his ears and barked.
Wang Xuan snorted coldly, "Send an order for Mo Yunxiao to lead a hundred mountain-searching army experts to the back valley. There are monsters causing trouble there. Take Ah Fu with you!"
"Take your orders!"
The sergeant at the door immediately clasped his fists and led Ah Fu into the heavy rain.
Guo Shouqing couldn't help but praise: "Sir, this spiritual dog is indeed extraordinary."
Ahfu's six-ear magical power can hide any movement within a ten-mile radius. He has really been in the limelight these two days.
Wang Xuan nodded, "Taoist Master, thank you."
"Cha! Cha!"
Xiaobai, who was standing on the wooden beam, screamed several times in dissatisfaction.
Wang Xuan was speechless, "Xiao Bai is also very clever."
…
On the other side, outside the military camp.
After Mo Yunxiao received the order, he immediately led his men out of the camp.
Ah Fu turned into a black shadow and led the way.
Hundreds of soldiers held guns and swords and carried bows on their backs. The soil exploded when they stepped on them, and they jumped vertically and horizontally along the mountains with swift and fierce movements.
The Soushan Army has targeted training on weekdays. In the past two days, they have been interacting with monsters. They have become more accustomed to the mountains and forests, walking across mountains and ridges as if they were walking on flat ground.
Not long after, the target appeared in front of us.
Mo Yunxiao's nose almost turned crooked when he saw it.
It turns out that a small barrier lake has accumulated in the back valley due to heavy rains and flash floods, and the turbid yellow water is still pouring in, surging.
At the mouth of the valley, there were several two-meter-tall black pig monsters, which were nudging the rocky embankment with their noses. They seemed to want to cause a flash flood and destroy the military camp.
"Damn you monster!"
The few sergeants accompanying him were full of anger, but they carefully concealed it.
Sure enough, Afu lay down, facing the forest on the right, and let out a roar.
"Leader Shiro Shiro, follow me, the rest will wait for my signal!"
Mo Yunxiao gave a warning and led the people to take a circuitous route up the mountain forest.
Sure enough, there was an old ape with sharp teeth and sharp mouth lying on the tree in the forest, with a rough animal skin drum hanging on his waist and a steel knife in his hand.
These days the Tianfu Army is already familiar with the routine.
The old demon who sneaked up on them used the magic of demon Gu to control the group of demons. Every time they took action, there would be a magician lurking under surveillance, and they had to be eliminated first.
It seems that the heavy rain masked the smell and the old ape did not notice them.
Mo Yunxiao winked, and Bai Silang immediately drew his bow and arrow.
As a veteran commander from Shiwa Village, Shiro Shiro gathered the Corpse Dog Sha Wheel a few days after receiving his military insignia. When he pulled the bow, the arrows of the exploding talisman arrows suddenly filled with blood.
The old ape who was watching was alerted by the evil spirit, and his hair suddenly exploded. He jumped up and wanted to jump to another tree, but there was a cold light rising into the sky from under the tree.
puff!
The old ape had no time to react before he was shot in the head.
Mo Yunxiao's face was cold, the tip of his spear paused, and then he nodded.
Shiro Shiro, who was in the distance, immediately changed into a loud arrow and shot into the sky.
Chirp—!
The sharp whistle shook the forest.
The ambushed government troops rushed out instantly and stabbed with guns in a small three-person formation. After two rounds, several pig monsters neighed and lay down on the ground, their blood flowing along the rain.
…
boom!
Several giant pig monsters were thrown into the muddy water, with blood splattering everywhere.
Mo Yunxiao cupped his hands and said: "Reporting to your lord, the evil spirits who caused trouble have been killed... This is the discovered evil weapon."
After telling the story, Mo Yunxiao took out the leather drum and handed it over.
Wang Xuan nodded after taking it, "Take out the poison bag carefully, and you will get more meat tonight!"
"Yes, sir!"
The auxiliary soldiers swarmed forward with joy, dragged the giant pig monster, skinned it and bled it, then opened its abdomen and carefully cut out a white sac from below the heart.
This white sac seems to have grown from the cavity membrane of the pig monster. It is so transparent that it is filled with white eggs. You can vaguely see something moving continuously.
The auxiliary soldier took out the poison bag and put it into the brazier.
Wang Xuan looked at the leather drum in his hand and handed it to Qi Long, "Mr. Qi, give it a try."
Qi Long took the leather drum and said with a smile: "If you are a master of voodoo in Dianzhou, we would be ashamed, but this monster's voodoo method is too crude."
As he spoke, he stretched out his zombie hand and flicked it.
Boom!
The skin drum vibrated, the poison sac burst instantly, and white insects swarmed everywhere, and soon became black and stiff.
Qi Long chuckled: "This is called the heart-eating Gu. A master can plant it into the heart veins, and the person who is affected by the poison will not even notice it. But this monster is not that good yet, so it can only be planted into the heart cavity. Once it is activated, it will break through.
The heart is spread all over the body along with the blood. Without the nourishment of heart blood, the Gu insect cannot even survive."
Qi Long's inheritance comes from the Guishou Sect, a branch of the medical sect. He is good at grafting, preparing poisons, and breaking poisons, but he is not proficient in using medicine to treat diseases. He originally had nothing to do in the worship camp, but he did not expect to show his talents after entering the mountain.
Wang Xuan looked at the four leather drums on Qi Long's body, "Since Mr. Qi found out, we have made four of them. The monster probably didn't expect that the magic used to gather the monster nest could become a fatal flaw."
With that said, he turned around and led everyone back to the camp.
On the map hanging in the center, it can be seen that the southwest mountains are only briefly drawn with the direction of the mountains and rivers, and a few circles are marked in the blank spaces.
Wang Xuan pointed to the nearest circle and said: "The sneak attack on us should come from here. I guess they found something. They are afraid of attracting the attention of the human race, so they are so defensive."
Zhang Heng chuckled, "Sir, it's only a few hundred miles away anyway. As soon as the weather clears, we'll rush out and go straight to the demon nest!"
Mo Huaixian shook his head slightly, "That's not right. If we attack the demon nest directly, wouldn't we reveal our true identity and let other demons know that we have a wooden guest to lead the way? It's better to follow your master's advice and figure it out slowly."
"That's right."
Wang Xuan's eyes narrowed slightly, "The enemy is in the dark, and we are in the light. Let's just pretend to be stupid and go around a lot to take the opportunity to explore the reality of the evil."
