Driven by the strange sound, hundreds of believers gradually surrounded Yan Chengxu in the center. The most terrifying thing in the world is not depravity, but not knowing it after depravity! Yan Chengxu clenched the sword in his hand, although
He doesn't want to hurt innocent people, but when necessary, he will use the sword in his hand to defend his own safety.
"Throw the torch into the crowd, the firelight can awaken their sanity!" Zhang Yanji accidentally kicked over a pile of firewood, scaring away several believers who had gathered around him. He had an idea and shouted loudly at Yan Chengxu.
Huh? Yan Chengxu seemed to have noticed this strange phenomenon. After a moment of thought, he leaned down and picked up a few bonfires and threw them towards the unconscious believers.
"Hoo!" The bonfire was blown by the strong wind, instantly igniting the fire and spreading along the valley. The believers who were still expressionless just now seemed to have regained their consciousness when they saw the fire. They scratched their heads from time to time and thought about what they had done before.
No impression left at all.
"The holy water is poisonous, and the bonfire has dried up the water, which is good for dispelling the poison!" Zhou Wuwei knocked down a mad believer who came forward with his right elbow and said with a bitter smile. Now if he wants to repel thousands with just a few people,
The believers are nothing more than wishful thinking. The only way is to use firelight to awaken the consciousness of a small number of believers, and then use their own impact to bring the remaining believers back!
But there is a huge disadvantage in doing this, that is, only a small number of believers at the front can be recalled to their minds. This is tantamount to letting the people who have just regained their consciousness to fight against the believers who are still controlled by drugs.
It would be too cruel! But they had no other choice. Nan Jiyun was in a coma, and Lei Wanchun's eyes were poisoned. Now including Yan Chengxu, there are only four people in Li Kuo's group who are capable of fighting. If they don't take this "
With the strategy of "turning back the bead curtain", none of them can escape this mountain col that has become like a ghost.
"Don't worry yet!" Li Kuo knocked out a believer and met with Zhou Wuzui and Zhang Yanji under a boulder. "We are upwind and look for more withered grass. If the wild wormwood is burned, we will definitely stun them.
!”
"Where do we have time to collect weeds now!" Zhou Wuwei twisted his fat body and pushed down several pilgrims who were trying to climb the boulder, shouting.
"Then throw a bonfire first and block their route!" Li Kuo gritted his teeth and made a compromise decision.
"You guys go find the weeds to burn, I'll leave this place to you!" At some point, Yan Chengxu had broken through the obstacles of the visitors and led Nan and Lei to the boulder.
"Pfft." He threw the two of them aside on the grass, Yan Chengxu drew his sword and headed towards the boulder.
"You can't be gentle, they are all so seriously injured!" Zhang Yanji complained to himself and was unreasonable.
Yan Chengxu stopped but did not look back: "Wait until you get out of the valley alive before you say these words to me."
Li Kuo grabbed Zhang Yanji who was still about to defend himself, glanced at him lightly, and signaled that they should quickly collect weeds and dry mugwort seeds for burning.
"Alas!" Zhang Yanji had no choice but toss his sleeves and turn around.
The three young men began to collect the weeds and dry artemisia they knew as quickly as possible, one cluster, two clusters, three clusters...
Not enough, this amount of weeds is far from having the effect of suppressing smoke, but many years can’t cut more weeds in a short period of time!
Yan Chengxu stood resolutely on the boulder, knocking down the believers who tried to climb up the boulder again and again. However, more and more believers came in this direction, and they gathered more and more densely...
The group of people who had awakened their minds by the bonfire turned around, and were bitten by the throats by a group of believers who rushed forward and were crushed to the ground. The remaining people had no choice but to be carried back in reverse direction!
Yan Chengxu's sword is still flying, guarding the young man and his promise. But his figure is getting weaker and his movements are getting heavier. I don't know how long he can last?
"Throw the cut wormwood onto the fire at the rear right, and this time the south wind will blow!" Li Kuo threw a bundle of weeds into the pit next to him and shouted to his two friends.
.
Artemisia and weeds fell into the bonfire and made a sizzling sound, creating thick black smoke that floated under the boulders along with a gust of southerly wind.
"If you add some fucking ingredients, these piles of weed poles won't be enough to burn!" Zhang Yanji looked at the growing number of pilgrims gathering under the boulder, and he was filled with fear.
The first thick smoke drifted down the boulder in the wind, causing a wave of unconscious believers to burst into tears. Yes, although their minds were controlled by the demonic sound and demonic water, they were still flesh and blood.
There will be various normal physiological reactions.
At first, Li Kuo, Zhang Yanji and others just had the attitude of giving it a try and did not expect the thick smoke to really defeat the enemy. However, within less than half a stick of incense after the thick smoke rose, they changed their minds.
Idea. The effect of the thick smoke was so good that even dozens of steps away, the three of them could hear the screams and curses of the believers. Due to instinctive physiological reactions, after being choked to tears, these people who lost their minds
The believers no longer listened to the control of the demonic voice and fled back. Li Kuo was very satisfied that he could repel the believers without any bloodshed. After all, they were also people of the Tang Dynasty, and they had the blood of Han people in their bodies. They were
Temporarily lost consciousness, you should not fight against the same kind of people unless absolutely necessary!
"Not guilty, go and seal the west entrance, the wind is a little light over there!" Li Kuo saw dozens of visitors coming from the west col, his heart sank, and he ordered loudly.
"Dele!" Zhou Wuwei trotted and pushed the lit haystack down the col. In order to enhance the effect, he specially added a few poisonous wormwood and heartbroken grass, but he did not inform Li Kuo. (Note 1
)
Yan Chengxu struggled to kick a crazy believer off a boulder, and finally breathed out. Looking down from the slope, the groups of believers could hardly be seen. The thick smoke played a very good role in the mountain col.
, gray-white smoke shrouded the valley but had nowhere to disperse, forcing the coughing believers to run to the rear. This impact completely disrupted the rhythm of the magic sound. The effect of the holy water gradually began to fail, and it had exceeded
More and more believers came who were not controlled by the Tubo Buddhist monks.
As long as he survives this wave, he will succeed! Yan Chengxu clenched his fists and guarded his promise. Standing alone with a sword, black clothes and black hair, at this moment, his back was like a god.
...
Unknowingly, the sky had turned dark, but Xinke did not regain his consciousness as expected. Although the pressure from the front was reduced a lot, the uncertainty brought by the night still made Yan Chengxu complain and feel tired.
To deal with it. The weeds and mugwort on the original slope have already been burned by the teenagers, and it is impossible to use smoke again. Moreover, the wind direction has already changed at night. Even if there is enough mugwort, everyone can't go against the weather.
Bar?
"Exhausted!" Zhang Yanji fell on his back and complained loudly. They had not rested since the afternoon, and kept mowing, ligating, and burning. Finally, the believers' offensive gradually slowed down, but it was dark again.
However, those black-clothed masters and protectors have not taken action, which can at least give people a breather.
"Well, why is there green light in the woods in the distance? Could it be fireflies?" Zhang Yanji closed his eyes happily. He was about to take a rest before he suddenly realized that it is autumn now, how could there be fireflies!
The boy straightened up and sat up, cold sweat streaming down his neck.
Pairs of dark green wolf eyes flashed through the trees in the dark night like will-o'-the-wisps, exuding infinite chill.
"Brother Kuo'er, there's a wolf!" Zhang Yanji turned around and ran, crying towards the bonfire where Lei Wanchun was recovering from his injuries in Nan Jiyun. Brother Kuo'er and the dead fat man were both there! At this moment, Zhang Yanji really regretted it.
I wanted to save face, so I ran to the west of the original slope alone to relieve myself!
From Zhang Yanji's shouts, Li Kuo gradually understood that he had encountered a pack of wild wolves. This pack of wild wolves should have come from the back mountain. These beasts smelled the bloody smell of the mountain col and followed them all the way. Naturally they wanted to have a feast.
Dun. During the day, there were many people and the smoke was thick. These beasts did not dare to enter. They waited until night fell and the smoke dissipated before launching a fatal blow!
"Howl!" the wolf king roared, and the wolves moved their front paws tentatively and moved forward. With the help of the campfire, Li Kuo finally saw the size of the wolf group clearly. There were at least seventeen or eight wild wolves in this group.
Under the leadership of the Wolf King, they were slowly approaching the crowd.
Maybe the wolves also realize that these prey are difficult to deal with, so they just circle around the people but are not eager to attack.
Li Kuo stared closely at the wolf. It was easy to distinguish it from other wild wolves. It was covered in silver hair and only had a tuft of brown-black hair between its eyes. It seemed to use this feature to declare to people that it belonged to this group.
The king among wild wolves.
Li Kuo dexterously took out the two-stone hard bow, bent the bow and set the arrow with full strength. He heard a sudden sound. The arrow shot towards the center of the Wolf King's eyebrows. The Wolf King was shocked, and he stood up and leaped to avoid this fatal blow.
of an arrow.
The wolf king who had escaped was furious and roared loudly. The wild wolves rushed towards the teenagers as if they had received orders. Seeing that the situation was not good, Li Kuo quickly called Zhang Yanji, and Zhou Wuwei took the injured Nan.
Lei and the two stepped back. However, the two of them refused to follow. They shouted lowly, pulled out their sabers and slashed at the nearby gray wolf.
Next to Zhou Wuwei was a skinny female wolf. Perhaps because it was too hungry, this beast went against common sense and rushed straight towards Zhou Wuwei. Zhou Wuwei sneered and waved his knife.
With a touch, there was a flash of cold light, and a large gash was opened on the she-wolf's snow-white belly.
"Woo, woo." The beast let out a miserable howl, licking the wound with its tongue in an attempt to reduce the pain. However, it found that more and more blood was pouring out of its intestines, dyeing it red.
Decaying grass.
The male wolf in front of Zhang Yanji was much smarter. After it easily avoided the young man's fatal blow, it did not rush to attack. It was seen that it quickly circled around the young man, and when it circled behind the young man, it used its hind legs to fly high.
Li Kuo jumped up and struck at the back of Zhang Yanji's neck. Seeing Zhang Yanji stunned on the spot, Li Kuo quickly drew out a short-feathered arrow, charged up his strength, and shot the arrow.
The gray wolf was pierced through the head by an arrow, and it let out a cry and fell to the ground. Seeing that more and more wild wolves were approaching, Li Kuo threw away his long bow, drew out his machete, and slashed away.
The few wild wolves that were approaching were chopped to the ground by Li Kuo before they understood what was going on, and they whimpered softly. After moaning a few times, their eyes lost their luster.
The wolf king was furious when he saw this, and shouted and rushed towards Li Kuo. His leap attracted dozens of wild wolves, and in an instant Li Kuo was trapped by a pack of wolves!
Li Kuo took a deep breath, held the knife in both hands to protect his face, and looked for a possible breakout point. Brother Yan was fighting with the believers at this time, wouldn't he notice me?
Could it be that he was going to be buried in the belly of a wolf today? Li Kuo smiled bitterly in his heart, and then struck at the approaching wild wolf with lightning speed. Instead of just sitting back and waiting for death, he might as well give it a try! Li Kuo, who was prepared to pay attention, completely ignored it.
The scimitar wielded in his hand was like the scythe of death, constantly reaping life. The cold light was shining, and the blood was rolling. The warm wolf blood splashed on Li Kuo, which further aroused the young man's fighting spirit. Although he had been bitten by wild wolves in many places.
, but he still didn’t slow down. Just as Li Kuo was about to break out from the southeast corner, a sharp pain came from his left calf. The boy screamed and fell to his knees in pain. It turned out that the wolf king had already surrounded him before he was prepared.
He got behind the young man, jumped hard, threw the young man to the ground, and bit the young man's left leg fiercely.
Seeing that Li Kuo couldn't get up, the Wolf King let out a long howl and bit straight into his throat.
The young man closed his eyes tightly and subconsciously raised the knife to greet him. After a while, the severe pain he had imagined did not appear. Li Kuo slowly opened his eyes, and what he saw was Pu Dachui's honest and warm face under the firelight.
