The tide of beasts is sweeping across the land, with the people fleeing in front and the tide of beasts behind.
They are not in a hurry to kill the humans in front of them, but just hang on leisurely. As soon as they see a large number of humans starting to fall behind, they will launch an attack without mercy.
Ordinary people can travel in three or two days. After they separated from Nanyun that day, Zhao Min drove the beast tide and swallowed up an unknown number of human beings.
The three fat men mingled among the crowd, occasionally looking back to watch the beast tide.
They were extremely embarrassed, but there was no look of fear on their faces. The black dog even took out a pen and paper to record the changes in the beast tide.
When they were about to escape into Gulan City, someone flew up.
Anyone who reveals his identity as a practitioner will be torn to pieces and eaten by birds circling in the sky in an instant, causing waves of commotion.
The formation runes were not illuminated on the city wall, and the city protection barrier was not opened. The woman floating among the birds and monsters looked closely at the city, allowing the monsters and wild beasts to drive the mortals into the city.
, but she didn’t dare to get close.
No one could recognize the drastically changed Zhao Min. The three fat men followed the crowd into the city with suspicion.
The rattling sound of the machine sounded. After people entered the city, the city gate was slowly closed, and formation runes began to appear on the city wall.
After those monsters drove the humans into the city, they did not follow them inside, but wandered in circles outside the city, seemingly waiting for Zhao Min's instructions.
Viewed from the air, the tall city walls of Gulan City extend straight between the two mountains on the ground. The smoke of people rises from the giant city, causing a mist that floats in the air, making it difficult to see how big Gulan City is.
The smooth Qujiang River flows out from under the city wall, and is surrounded by a tight fence above, guarded by a large number of monks from the City Lord's Mansion.
The tide of beasts moved along the corner of the wall. Many monsters transformed into huge figures and blocked the sewers of the city. The rising water flowed over their bodies and continued to go eastward. One after another, monsters chose to transform here.
Exit the main body to block the entrance to the gate.
Soon after crawling, their bodies turned to stone and merged with the city wall.
The surface of the river below is just level with the city wall they incarnate into.
Looking from the outside in, these monsters don't seem to be here to destroy the ancient city, but rather like they are here to close the gap under the gate for the ancient city.
The monks above were greatly surprised. They all raised their weapons and looked at the river outside the city.
The first monsters that entered the water began to walk out along the waterway. After landing, they shook the water off their bodies and gradually shrank their huge bodies, turning into the appearance of ordinary monsters.
After turning around and roaring at the monks on the city, they gradually merged with the surrounding beast tide.
At this time, Zhao Min was flying slowly in the air, looking warily at the city defense formation that was beginning to rise, and at the same time looking at the already impregnable water outlet.
Seeing that the root of the wall was right on the water, she suddenly looked ugly.
Two thick gray beams of light erupted in his eyes and plowed across the ground. The monsters and wild beasts on the way were purified into nothingness by the beams of light. The circling beasts roared in panic, but they seemed unable to escape Zhao Min's control, and could only move more crazily.
Turn in circles.
Seeing the movements of her and the beast tide, the silent and unchanging monks on the city finally had a little smile. They all raised their heads to look at the sky. The city protection formation had been completely capped, and the entire ancient city was blocked.
A huge upside-down bowl protects the inside.
Then, they looked at Zhao Min and the beast tide mockingly.
After venting her anger, Zhao Min also raised her head, staring blankly at the bright city defense formation and those who silently mocked her.
Rows of crossbow arrows of various colors appeared on the city wall, but the beast tide just ran back and forth along the distance of several hundred steps under the city wall without getting closer. The two sides were silently confronting each other.
His gray eyes gradually became clear. Zhao Min suddenly looked at the city and roared sharply. Circles of golden sound waves spread out with her as the center, hitting the city defense formation and rippling out of each other in circles.
of ripples.
The city defense formation did not launch an attack, and Zhao Min made no other moves. Two bright lights illuminated the entire night, and there was a stalemate like this for a long time. The people on the city wall laughed silently.
This time, there was no attack or counterattack during this strange beast wave siege. Even the sound was only the sound of the beast wave running and Zhao Min's roar. When people noticed the huge noise coming from the city gate, the high-altitude city defense formation began to slow down.
After slowly retreating, they were surprised to find that the tide of beasts had receded.
There are no military steps inside this tens-foot-high city wall, let alone any urn and horse faces. The security of the city seems to depend only on the judgment of the city defense formation, and those practitioners are also inexplicably missing.
The crisis disappeared, the city returned to its former peace, and the sounds of the city began again, as if the danger had just happened and never happened.
A large number of human races began to venture out of the city and play, and everything in Gulan City returned to its original state. If Nanyun were here, he would definitely find the weirdness of Gulan City. The entire giant city and its people were like puppets operating on their own.
Among the crowds on the ground, a very small number of people can occasionally be seen running and jumping in the crowd. These people are all ordinary people, including Fatty and Black Dog.
And far outside the city, a huge tide of beasts was running along the river. The river under Taoshan and Baili Peony Peak was shrouded in a hazy yellow light, and the earth seemed to be floating with a winding earth ribbon, flowing along the river.
The river extends.
Zhao Min didn't know what she was searching for. She stared at the colorful ribbons of the river for a while, and for a while at the beautiful scenery of the distant mountains. The tide of beasts driven by her began to disperse. She waved her hand irritably, and the tide of beasts dispersed. The birds in the sky were blown by the strong wind, blowing all over the ground.
The petals fell into the ground and the peach branches shook violently.
Only the smooth, mirror-like river water remained unaffected by her weather.
Her eyes began to turn strange gray-white again. She tilted her head and listened in the distance. Her figure gradually dissipated and turned into a few wisps of gray mist, passing through the colorful ribbons on the river and disappearing into the Peach Mountain.
Two days later, Nan Yun, who was hurrying on his way, arrived at Taolin Ferry. He rubbed his eyes as he looked at the large boats, painted boats and flat-boat passengers passing by on the ferry.
There were no traces of wild beasts and monsters along the way, but he saw many people venturing out of the city. He thought it was his illusion.
But the busy ferry scene in front of him told him that he was not wrong.
It seems that the beast tide is really not coming towards Gulan City.
Keeping the fat man's instructions in mind, he did not choose to cross the river to enter the city, but walked along the bank of Peach Mountain towards the Peach Grove.
For no other reason than he saw the boat where Taohong was on, going upstream at a slow speed.
Today's Taoshan seems to be more lively. There are many lanterns floating on the riverside in the evening, and handsome men and beauties are making wishes.
The waterlilies swayed in the waves, and the fish and shrimps flew freely. He looked at the scene in the water strangely, then at the fragrant water mist leaking from one side of the boat, and then looked up at the water connecting one side of Taoshan and the other side of the river bank.
The tall and long bridge is shocking in my heart.
He didn't feel anything that day, but today he looked up from the riverside at the lights and pedestrians on the bridge, reflecting the moon in the sky, and was shocked to realize the grandeur of the ancient bridge and its charm that seemed to far surpass the walls of the ancient city.
Is it Mid-Autumn Festival today?
For some reason, he always felt that as soon as he got close to Gulan City or the people in Gulan City, a strange feeling would appear in his heart.
This feeling came out of nowhere and he didn't know where he was. It always made him feel that he was different from everyone here.
After walking a few more steps, he stood still and raised his head. The world fell into silence. The boat where Taohong was sitting poured out a large amount of fragrant bath balm and powder water.
A woman on the bridge looked like a fairy on the bright moon. The young man raised his head and looked up, and his fairylike appearance entered his heart.
The elegant Zhao Min stood on the railing of the high bridge, looking tenderly at the young man by the river, and looking coldly at the cruise ship in the river.
One person's illusion.
Why is she here?
With a shock in his heart, Nan Yun did not dare to delay, stepped up his pace, and followed the crowd up to meet Zhao Min.
He rushed back desperately, wanting to report to the people in the city that the beast tide was coming.
But after seeing today that the prosperity and stability were still there, he gradually felt relieved.
Suddenly seeing Zhao Min again, he felt like a murderous intention was approaching him, even the soles of his feet felt like needles pricking him as he climbed up the steps.
