Miss Zou was no longer as arrogant as before. When she learned that the monks from Shangyang County recommended an experienced old man to be the captain, she also put down her pretense as the city lord and lady and reported the situation in detail.
The old man muttered: "That's because the beast tide retreated to the East China Sea to rest, and they won't come ashore for a while. But when the tide rises in the middle of the night, the East China Sea monster beasts will still follow the tide and launch an attack on the city."
Everyone suddenly understood and let out a sigh of relief.
Miss Zou lost her personal maid and almost died on the Tidal Coast. She was angry and sad, and she was in a very low mood. She clamored to go back to the city and plausibly said: "In this case, let's go back quickly.
There is no need to investigate further, just report the captain’s speculation to the envoy.”
The old man said confidently: "When the tide rises in the middle of the night and the beast tide emerges again, only one companion will fly back to report the news to the envoy. The remaining fellow Taoists can hide behind the rocks with me and lead the beasts.
After the tide has passed, you can dig out and pick up leaks, and you can kill many East Sea demon cultivators who have fallen behind! Don't forget that we are not just spying on the enemy, but also to gain something, so that we can obtain battle medals and exchange items.
"
Everyone nodded in agreement, only Miss Zou objected.
Gu Qing said calmly: "Miss Zou is so frightened that she doesn't have the courage to kill the monsters in the East China Sea. Just go back and report the news!"
Miss Zou has never been insulted like this since she was a child, and no one dared to say a harsh word in front of her. Seeing that Gu Qing looked down on her, Miss Zou immediately lost her temper and said unconvinced: "Nonsense! I am the boss.
The young lady wants to show you how to kill me, then let’s see who gets the most!”
Gu Qing smiled slightly and was noncommittal.
The old man saw that everyone had agreed to stay and wait for the beast tide in the middle of the night to pass by to pick up the leaks, so the old man directed everyone to dig a hole in a hidden place on the tidal coast. The deeper the better, and also arranged a hole to cover the atmosphere.
The forbidden formation hides it from the eyes of sea beasts.
Gu Qing also dug a deep pit according to the size of the pebble array, so as not to be seen through by sea beasts with fiery eyes.
After everything was arranged, everyone got into the cave and waited quietly for midnight.
The tidal coast was quite quiet at first, with only the sound of the tide rolling over the beach. Later, the sound of the tide became louder and louder, and there was a faint fishy smell in the air.
The captain immediately notified his teammates in the deep pit beside him and ordered: "Brother Yang, you are Feng Xiu and you are faster. Go back and report the news! It will be dangerous if you are late. When you go back, tell them that the beast wave will rush up in half an hour."
Go to the tidal coast and rush to the city to let them take precautions in advance."
When the monk surnamed Yang heard that he only had half an hour, he quickly took up his sword and headed west.
Sure enough, as the time got closer and closer, the smell of the sea became stronger and stronger. The captain lowered his voice and said: "The monsters of the East China Sea are not far away. Everyone has built deep pits and hidden them. They hold their breath and concentrate.
Wait for me to greet you, and then rush out together to hunt the monsters!"
Everyone agreed in unison and immediately followed the instructions.
Gu Qing not only sealed the entrance to the pit above, but also arranged a cobblestone array. He hid in the array, used the Dead Wood Technique, and immersed his mind in the white jade gourd in the belly of the golden ant, and his breath converged to the extreme.
Along with the roar of the sea breeze, a new wave of beasts rolled up the stormy waves, breaking the tranquility of the tidal coast!
Everyone hiding in the pit was shocked when they heard the tsunami-like movement. Then they heard the rustling sound on the beach. Some unknown sea beast was crawling, and no one dared to radiate their consciousness.
Wait and see.
What surprised Gu Qing was that besides these noises, there were actually voices of people on the beach, from far to near, discussing something.
"In the daytime battle, our Qianzhu Island suffered heavy losses, and many of our companions lay dead on the ground. It's your patrolling Yasha clan's turn to take the lead at night!"
Immediately, Gu Qing heard a sneer that sounded like a night owl: "Snake King with Blue Eyes, it's you Qianzhu Island who started the war in the southeastern sea area! This demon is just to help the troops, you can send some low-level sea monsters there during the day.
Siege the city, hide our strength, and now we are bargaining with this demon to make my sons work for their lives! Hehe, do you want to see us suffer heavy losses and Qianzhu Island take the opportunity to unify the two southeastern parts?"
Gu Qing was secretly shocked after hearing this, and quietly sent a message to the Ice Butterfly King on his shoulder: "It turns out that among the monster beasts, there are not a few who have developed spiritual intelligence, and there are many who can speak human words."
Bingdie also said with spiritual consciousness: "Isn't it right? According to my perception, these two guys are both great demon cultivators in the Dan Condensation stage, and their status is equivalent to the two major city lords of the Wu Kingdom, but the sea area they occupy must be
It is wider than the jurisdiction of the city lord of Wu State."
Gu Qing waited until the two demon cultivators were far away, and the arguing was gradually no longer heard, and then he let out a sigh of relief. After all, he only had four sixth-order spiritual beasts, and he couldn't compete with them. These two great alchemy-stage
The great demon cultivator is not only powerful himself, but also has numerous demonic beasts under his command, which are enough to submerge his four spiritual beasts into the tide of beasts.
The Shangyang County monks in the other deep pits were not protected by the cobblestone array, and they were all frightened, fearing that if the pit entrances were not blocked tightly, they would be discovered by hordes of monsters.
Everyone waited until the beast tide passed and the voices above became increasingly sparse. Then the captain secretly dispersed his consciousness and looked outside.
"Come out of the cave! Let's go together and kill these monsters!"
The captain shouted loudly and rushed out of the pit first. Others jumped out one after another. Nearly half of the people were already frightened out of their wits by the tide of beasts. For a while, they did not dare to rush out of the pit. They just looked around and watched other people.
How teammates act.
Gu Qing put away the pebble array, and under the protection of the sixth-order Ice Butterfly King, he jumped out of the pit calmly. He immediately noticed that the fishy smell in the sea breeze was extremely strong, and there were dozens of straggler monsters scattered on the tidal coast.
.
Any straggler monsters were of low grade and limited in strength. Following the captain's order, everyone rushed to chase the straggler monsters on the tidal coast.
Miss Zou became more energetic, holding a sixth-level phoenix-wing magic knife to chop down low-level monsters, quickly collecting the beast souls, and at the same time looking at Gu Qing with pride, as if she was showing off the results of the battle to him.
.
Gu Qing has no interest in these low-level monsters. The white-shirted messenger from the capital of Wu State made it very clear that only by killing monsters of the same level or even higher levels can he redeem a large number of battle medals and kill some small beasts.
, even if you collect a lot of beast souls, the final battle medals you get are pitiful.
Just as Gu Qing was looking into the distance to find a suitable target, the sound of conch shells filled the night sky.
The captain's face turned ugly and he shouted loudly: "Quick! Kill this conch-blowing patrol yaksha! It is asking for help from the tribe and inviting friends!"
Whoosh!
A flash of cold crystal light flashed, and the sound of the conch suddenly stopped.
Everyone turned around and saw the fifth-level top-quality crystal rainbow bow in Gu Qing's hand!
Everyone once again looked at Gu Qing with admiration!
"Thanks to Brother Gu for shooting the patrolling Yaksha in time, otherwise we would have been in danger if a large group of people were attracted by its conch sound!"
"My fellow ancient Taoist was decisive, and this top-grade bow and arrow weapon is also very good."
Only Miss Zou snorted coldly: "Humph! Isn't it just a broken bow? Isn't it great? I am too lazy to take action, otherwise I would definitely be faster than you!"
Gu Qing stared at the beast tide moving away to the west, a dignified look flashed in his eyes, and said coldly: "It's still a step too late! It has alarmed a large group of patrolling Yakshas above the fourth level!"
Everyone was horrified. They followed his gaze and couldn't help but gasp. Some of the timid ones even jumped into the deep pit where they had been hiding.
The captain said solemnly: "It's useless! These patrolling yakshas have extremely strong eyesight and have discovered us. Prepare for war! Only by fighting hard can we survive."
Everyone's heart was very heavy. Behind them was the vast East China Sea. There was no way out and they could only fight bloody battles with this group of patrolling Yakshas.
Miss Zou regretted even more, she regretted impulsively coming to this ghost place. Now in her eyes, the Tidal Coast is no longer as picturesque as before, but has completely turned into a Shura hell.
Only Gu Qing remained calm and indifferent. In his eyes, these large numbers of patrolling yakshas who came to his door were not life-and-death opponents, but his prey!
"Kill!" the captain shouted, leading a team of less than ten people and rushed into the patrolling Yaksha group.
These yakshas have a ferocious appearance and are all green and black. Without exception, they all hold three prongs that support the sky. They are made of coral wood or some kind of black ironwood from the seabed. Their combat power is comparable to that of ferocious beasts of the same level, and they occupy a large area
With their numerical advantage, as soon as they took over, the team of monks were instantly overwhelmed.
Gu Qing was protected by ice butterflies, and he also used the Xiao San Qi Sword Formation to protect himself. He shuttled among these patrolling Yakshas with ease.
He successively killed the patrolling Yakshas that came up and collected the beast souls, killing more and more.
Suddenly, Gu Qing noticed a powerful spiritual pressure, and then there was a sound of breaking through the air, and the strong wind was strong. Gu Qing quickly used the Flash Sky Technique, and dodged lightly and deftly, while the sixth-order ice butterfly was also coming.
He took the opportunity to freeze the Tuotiancha flying across the sky!
Gu Qing suddenly turned around and realized that the person who threw the Totian Fork was a patrolling Yaksha leader. Like Bingdie, he was also a sixth-level beast king. It missed the hit, and the Toten Fork withdrew and threw it at another
A monk was pierced through the chest and died.
The captain hurriedly reminded loudly: "Be careful of the flying fork of this patrolling Yaksha leader!"
Unexpectedly, before he finished speaking, the patrolling Yaksha leader's Totensha was thrown straight at him. Although the captain was experienced and strong, his combat power was limited after all. He used half of his defensive shield and was immediately thrown by the Totensha.
He was smashed to pieces and was immediately seriously injured. He was swarmed by the patrolling yakshas around him and turned into a hedgehog, killing him.
As soon as the captain died, the remaining six or seven people were even more panicked. In a short time, they were killed one after another. Even Miss Zou, who was equipped with top-notch equipment, became the target of patrolling Yaksha. They were ganged up before they could run very far.
Attacked, unable to dodge, he also fell into a pool of blood.
