Chapter 43 Suspicion of disappearance, clearing the clouds and seeing the sun
Unlike Huang Congyun, Chen Qiang himself led the monks from the Daxing Dynasty and a group of disciples from the Jian Sect to meet the enemy outside the village.
Therefore, this wave of monster attacks, in the hands of Chen Qiang's powerful firepower and the physically energetic Daxing Dynasty monks, was repelled without causing too many casualties.
The monks of the Daqian Dynasty, including Yang Sandao, finally got a chance to breathe and began to recover from their injuries.
The remaining waves of attacks that day were all easily intercepted by Chen Qiang and his men.
In the dead of night, there will be three hours from now on when the monsters will not attack.
The moon shines like water, under an old locust tree in the village, Chen Qiang, Yang Sandao and Murong Yue, the three strongest people at present, are discussing.
"I have sent people to ask everyone. According to statistics, most of the disciples have been attacked and killed by monsters when they first entered the secret realm."
"And they were able to come to this village near the teleportation point. They found the official road outside the village, and then followed the official road all the way."
"And as you mentioned, some disciples have also encountered sudden disappearances."
"It's the same as the situation you described. I saw someone disappear when they got the items that were suspected to be in the secret area."
"But, what can these mean?"
Murong Yue asked in confusion. Just after a day of fighting, she was pulled by Chen Qiang to help Chen Qiang run errands, which made her very tired.
If Chen Qiang hadn't said that it would be best for a beautiful woman to come forward, she wouldn't have agreed.
Chen Qiang pondered for a while, looked up at Yang Sandao and said, "Brother Yang, what do you think?"
Yang Sandao: "Everything depends on Brother Qiang."
Murong Yue: "..."
Chen Qiang touched his chin and said: "Although it's hard to say now whether those disappeared people are good or bad, but one thing can be confirmed, at least these monsters really want our lives!"
Murong Yue rolled her eyes and said, "Aren't you talking nonsense? Don't think about it, how many monks have died at the hands of monsters?"
Yang Sandao: "Don't be rude to Brother Qiang!"
Murong Yue: "..."
Chen Qiang held down Yang Sandao's hand that was drawing the sword and said with a smile: "Didn't you realize that we are like leeks?"
Yang Sandao: "Brother Qiang is wise!"
Although Murong Yue was speechless, she still asked in confusion: "What do you mean?"
Chen Qiang laughed again: "It was cut off just after it grew."
"You see, the location was disrupted when we came in. Those who survived will follow the official road to the village, but this village can only be entered but not exited."
"Then some monsters will attack us in the village, but unfortunately, they don't attack all the time, but at intervals of one stick of incense each time."
"Every time we die a group of people, another group of people will be replenished with a stick of incense, and then another group of people will die..."
"It goes around and over again. Do you think we look like leeks?"
Yang Sandao: "Brother Qiang is right!"
Murong Yue couldn't help but shudder. After Chen Qiang said this, she also reacted. It was really scary to think about it!
"Okay...it seems like that's really what happened, then...then...what should we...do now?"
The more I thought about it, the more something was wrong. There seemed to be a big hand controlling them, and Murong Yue's voice couldn't stop trembling.
"Don't be afraid. It's possible that these monsters are just trying to protect the relics of their predecessors."
"After all, judging from the current situation, this secret realm is most likely left by the Tribulation Demonic Cultivator."
"Isn't this village the place where the demon cultivator lived? Those houses that have not yet been opened may contain the inheritance of the demon cultivator."
"As for those who disappeared, they might have obtained the demon cultivator's token and been transported somewhere to obtain their own opportunities."
"Perhaps he was sent out of the secret realm after taking some inheritance from the demon cultivator?" Chen Qiang comforted.
He actually didn't believe this statement, but it did make Murong Yue feel at ease a lot.
As for Yang Sandao, everything Chen Qiang says is right. After Lin Rouer's incident, his inner demons have been eliminated, and now Chen Qiang is the only one who is following the lead.
After parting with the two of them, Chen Qiang looked sad.
What he didn't say was that he actually had a premonition that this was a huge conspiracy against mankind.
Because of those zombie monsters, he had seen them in the mountain wolf clan before, but the ones here were not as strong as those he encountered in the underground palace at that time, but they were more numerous.
Those mountain wolves will not spare the bones of dead humans, let alone these living humans.
Therefore, Chen Qiang suspected that this secret realm might be a trap deliberately set by the monster clan, with the purpose of trapping and killing the younger generations of the two dynasties.
In particular, Elder Sun Man asked him to go to the ancient village first, but Yaoguang Situ Nuan was not there at all.
If there weren't many villages, then Situ Nuan and the other two seats would probably be in bad luck.
It's a pity that he has no evidence!
Chen Qiang scanned the houses that had not yet opened the doors, thinking thoughtfully. Perhaps, the truth lies in getting those items and disappearing?
He had tried various methods, but could not break open the door or destroy the houses.
It seems that what the Demonic Cultivator of Overcoming Tribulation left behind is indeed extraordinary.
At this point, we can only take one step at a time.
In the blink of an eye, three days later, more than 20,000 monks had gathered in this village.
The continuous fighting made every monk physically and mentally exhausted. If it weren't for Chen Qiang, many of them would have gone crazy because they had lost all hope of living.
In this village, in just three days, many reasonable and unexpected things happened.
For example, leeks have been cut in waves, and until today, no new leeks have come to the village for several hours. From this, it seems that no one will come again;
Another example is Yang Sandao and Lu Qingyao, who somehow got together and made Chen Qiang eat several handfuls of dog food;
Another example is that Chen Qiang worked hard and finally collected two more famous swords. Although they were only seventh-grade swords, with a total of only 25 more points per day, he finally collected twenty swords in total, successfully activating the second collection achievement system.
[Ding! The host collects twenty famous swords and unlocks the second collection achievement: Twenty Swords, which unlocks the improvement of sword power.]
[Ding! The host has received an achievement reward and a lottery draw. Please ask the host if you want to use it. 】
Chen Qiang was excited, but before he could take a closer look at the improvement of sword intent, he didn't even have time to draw his own achievement reward.
I heard bursts of exclamations coming from the village.
"Ahhh~ The door is finally open, here! Is this a spiritual elixir that can improve one level of cultivation at the golden elixir stage?"
"Hahaha! Star Reacher, just from the name, it sounds like a top-notch martial arts. It's developed!"
"What a sharp weapon. Look at it, it's no worse than the one from Tianxing Pavilion. Don't even try to snatch it from me!"
"..."
really!
The doors of several houses that were closed before are now open.
The monks rushed in like crazy one by one. The moment they got the items in the house, they disappeared one after another.
But even so, there are still monks one after another, with blood-red eyes, rushing in one after another. This look of no concern is like a stampede scene in later generations.
The only difference is that these monks who get the things will disappear directly.
"Stop it all, otherwise we will kill you without mercy!"
Chen Qiang's majestic voice spread throughout the village. Over the past three days, he had left an indelible and invincible image in everyone's hearts.
Under his scolding, everyone stopped one after another. No one dared to move anymore. Even the madness in their eyes gradually weakened a lot.
Chen Qiang took a picture of a long sword in the air, hung it in front of him, and looked at it carefully for a moment.
Chapter completed!
