Amidst the chaotic shouts, Du Kang stood up and left the tent.
Through the gap in the carriage room, one can see pairs of fluorescent eyes staring at the convoy in the woods not far away.
One of the guards lit a jar containing kerosene, and threw it directly outside the carriage circle without fear of igniting a forest fire. The jar shattered, igniting a large sea of fire and illuminating the creatures in the distance.
It turned out to be a group of huge rats, the largest of which was the size of a calf. There were more than a dozen rats the size of domestic cats guarding the surroundings, and the surrounding area was densely packed with ordinary-sized rats crawling all over the hillside.
Du Kang observed with his spiritual eyes and could see that the largest one was filled with evil energy and was a little demon. As for the dozen or so animals around him, they had some supernatural powers only after being infected by evil energy for a long time and turned into monsters.
It's still far from enough.
The rat demon's black and shiny hair shone in the firelight, and its two sharp front teeth shone with cold light as it licked its tongue. The ordinary rat crawling around was filthy, and it was spread all over the floor like a carpet.
Du Kang's scalp was numb and goosebumps appeared all over the place.
This rat demon is not scary, Du Kang is confident that he can kill it, but if the rat on this hillside charges towards him, he will not be able to stop it.
Du Kang and the young master of the Lin family looked at each other and stepped forward to confront the rat demon. After a moment, the rat demon led his tribe into the darkness of the mountain forest.
In the eyes of the spirit, the rats had indeed retreated far away. Du Kangcai and the young master of the Lin family said, "They have retreated far away. I hope everyone can have a good sleep tonight."
The young master of the Lin family on the side smiled bitterly and said: "I hope so. I have walked this road often before, but I have never encountered a rat demon. I'm afraid this road will not be smooth."
The young master of the Lin family talked about such depressing words with Du Kang, who was also a monk, and asked him to be mentally prepared. He was still confident in front of others and shouted loudly: "It's just a group of rats. They have retreated. Tonight they are still here."
Take turns patrolling and resting as planned."
The camp became busy immediately. The guards filled more dry wood to make the fire burn brighter. At the same time, they also lit several new fires outside the carriage so that the firelight could illuminate a farther range.
After that, most people continued to rest, while the patrolling men stood on the carriage and looked at the dark mountains and forests around them from a distance.
The mountain forests in winter are not peaceful either, and from time to time there are roars and howls of wild beasts.
After a night like this, even the guards of the Lin family who often walked this road could not sleep well, and none of the casual people who were traveling with them could fall asleep. They always felt that there would be mice scurrying out of the darkness.
He bit himself to death.
Du Kang can use the Yin Shen method to absorb spiritual energy and relieve mental fatigue.
The next day, the light snow still did not stop, and a finger thick of snow had accumulated on the official road overnight. The convoy broke camp in the snow and set off.
"In such a snowy day, the rats can't keep up." Du Kang glanced at the forest behind him and said.
With my spiritual eyes, I can still see the traces of rats in the distant mountains and forests. Apparently they haven't given up yet and have returned after leaving last night to continue snooping.
But running in a finger-thick snow, ordinary rats will freeze to death. As for abandoning the rats to attack the convoy, the rat demon is not that stupid. Without the rats, he is just an ordinary little demon. How can he be in the convoy?
The two monks killed him.
Although the snow made the mountain road more difficult to walk, it still helped the convoy a lot. If the mighty rats attacked together, Du Kang wouldn't be able to kill them all.
The snow on the ground made the convoy move slower and slower, but it also reduced the number of wild beasts snooping on both sides of the mountain road, making everyone in the convoy feel more relaxed.
Until noon, when the convoy stopped temporarily for lunch, a loud noise sounded at the rear of the convoy.
Du Kang turned around and saw a thick round pillar of flesh rising into the sky from the ground. It overturned the heavy carriage, and the two horses pulling the carriage were also brought down by the carriage, making a feeble neighing sound.
The surrounding guards immediately distanced themselves, drew their bows and shot at the monster, but the arrows could only barely penetrate the flesh, and the monster shook its body and fell down one after another.
The pillar of flesh squirmed, revealing a ferocious mouthpart with densely packed teeth at the top. One end plunged the mouthpart into the belly of the horse that fell to the ground, and saw it suck hard. The entire horse was sucked dry of its internal organs and all the blood in the struggle.
A corpse with an empty belly and a dry body.
Du Kang was not far from the monster. He jumped on the top of a carriage and jumped on the top of the carriage to approach the monster. However, he was afraid that there was a sneak attack from this monster underground.
If he were attacked from the ground by such a huge mouth, all three of his legs would be bitten off in one bite.
Finally reaching the roof of the carriage closest to the monster, Du Kang opened his spiritual eyes and could see that the monster was exuding an earthy yellow aura, almost blending with the aura of the earth itself, but he couldn't tell if there was anything nearby.
Such monsters lurk.
Pulling out Shuang Huan who had been carrying it on his back, he swung his sword to chop at the monster that was eating the second horse. The blue sword energy split the air and made an undetectable sound of breaking wind. It passed through the middle of the monster's neck, and then Du Kang's head
Without looking back, he jumped onto a nearby carriage again.
When he turned around, a third of the monster's neck was cut off by a sword. The monster's thick dark yellow blood, mixed with the blood and internal organs of the horse that had just been sucked into the mouth, spurted out from the wound.
The monster bit Du Kang regardless of the pain of the wound, but was pierced by a crossbow arrow shot from a distance. The incredibly powerful crossbow arrow left a transparent hole in the monster's body, and flew in with all its strength.
In the forest.
It was the young master of the Lin family who arrived. He threw aside the empty divine machine crossbow with his right hand and took out the short knife from his waist. His left hand and left forearm turned into a huge bright red crab claw in the flash of light.
The crab clam makes a clicking sound when it opens and closes.
"Brother Du, this is an earth dragon. Most of its body is underground. We can't kill it on the ground. Fortunately, it has low intelligence. As long as it is injured seriously enough, it will choose to retreat." Young Master of the Lin Family
shouted from the top of a carriage.
At this time, the guards of the Lin family also rushed nearby, but because the convoy was lined up and the carriages that could accommodate them were limited, they could only climb to the roof of the car with a limited number of people, while the rest shot from a distance.
Afraid of getting too close and being attacked by earth dragons.
Earthworm is another name for earthworm. Such a big monster turned out to be an earthworm. Du Kang thought about the length and thickness ratio of earthworms. The length of this earthworm hidden underground should be about three times the length on the ground.
Even if the whole section of the ground is chopped down, the lower part will still be able to survive well.
At this moment, the earth dragon was already annoyed by the arrows shot at it. Although these arrows could not cause effective damage, they kept biting it like mosquitoes. Suddenly, it became impatient and rushed towards a rash person.
The earth dragon bites away the guards within the attack range.
Du Kang and the young master of the Lin family couldn't help but smile when they saw this scene, the opportunity had come.
