Heavenly Dao Formula Chapter 28: Earth Night Pro
"This fog...is not normal!"
"Nonsense, fog is divided into morning and night, have you ever seen fog at dusk?"
"If something goes wrong, there must be evil...Is it really the Great Wild Night?"
"Sure enough, it sounds like you have experienced it."
"But in this way, we can't see the movement of charm!"
Compared with the people who were talking about it, Luo Qing was obviously more calm. She directly ordered a fellow disciple, "Go, ring the bronze bell, let the people below light the torch, and take the place according to the previously arranged team. ."
"Yes."
As the warning bell rang, the candidates gathered in the small square slowly started to move-although there was no rest and no discipline along the way, but under the temptation to pass the test, Everyone still entered their defensive positions in accordance with the arrangement.
Xia Fan also left the command post and boarded the "city wall" to the west.
said it was a city wall. It is essentially a combination of two blue brick houses and a section of soil wall. The roof of the house was mostly demolished, and a horizontal wooden frame was placed in the middle, which was transformed into a fairly flat surface from a **** that facilitates drainage. platform. The entire western wall can accommodate more than 30 people, and the narrowest part can also accommodate five people in parallel. This is already a "luxury configuration" that many small cities do not have.
Luo has gently hinted that if he doesn’t want to face evil, he can be placed in the backup team, but Xia Fan declined the other’s kindness-apart from his own proposal, he also wants to be close. Observe the Great Desolate Night and how the alchemist fought the evil spirits.
The candidates on the Western Wall are mainly led by the Luo family. They are basically divided into groups of five people. There are five to six groups on the wall. There are substitute groups and logistics teams behind them. The former is responsible for replacing injured or unable to fight. The latter is responsible for transporting materials and caring for the wounded, and the overall arrangement can be considered concise and clear.
The leader of Xia Fan’s group is Luo Tang, who has had a relationship before. She should be slightly older than Luo. She is about eighteen or nineteen years old. She looks upright, and her head is dark. His long hair is straight on the back, which is quite a ladylike temperament. It's just that for some reason, he always feels that the other person's eyes look at him contain a few guard and vigilance.
Seeing the people arrive, Luo Tang said, "Although Luo Qing has already explained it, in order to avoid omissions, I will repeat it here. Your main task is to prevent evil creatures from attacking and climbing the city wall. Keep this torch incessantly--" She pointed to the wooden pole with the flames blooming nearby, and there were almost every three or four meters of wooden torches like this one, and she looked like the "head of the city" shook one more circle. The flame fence, "Once you lose the light of the fire, the danger of the charm will be greatly increased, so no matter what happens, you must ensure that the torch is not lost."
"What if you lose it?" someone asked.
"Then life and death have fate, each depends on ability." said the grassroots in the mouth of "Brother Yan" leaning on the corner.
After these two days of getting along, Xia Fan also knows a little more about this person-his real name is Zhang Yan, and his eldest brother Zhang Shi, the two brothers, called him "Brother Yan" before. Born in an Orion family, he was originally a villager. Because of the ability to perceive qi, he was favored by the county magistrate and supported the two to read literacy and participate in the academic examination.
Before wearing a Confucian scholar's shirt, this person's behavior was a bit awkward, until he led the hunting team up to the mountain to go wild, and changed back to a leather jacket and boots, the whole talent seemed natural. Now with a short bow on his back, he looks like an experienced hunter.
"Of course not!" Luo Tang said in a bad mood, "In case the torch goes out, you should immediately retreat to a place with light, and wait until the bench comes up with a new torch, regain your position!"
"That's right... That's what I meant." Zhang Yan whistled.
Luotang didn’t bother to pay attention to him, and then said, “Charm belongs to the “nocturnal creatures”, afraid of light and heat. Li, dry, and shaking have good restraint effects. The medicinal materials allocated are also based on these two types of techniques. Law is more. It's just that everyone's proficient techniques are different. If you feel that you are not good at divorce and dry techniques, don't waste the medicinal materials and leave it to those who are good at it. The mahogany weapon also has a good driving effect, just hold your sword around the torch. "
Xia Fan glanced at the wooden basket where the medicinal materials were placed, and she saw a lot of powder--that should be the sulfur and nitrate powder often used in Lishu.
"What should I do if the entire city wall is lost?" Zhang Shiwen asked in a huff. Unlike Brother Yan, he was a half circle larger than ordinary people, with thick hands and feet, and he didn't seem to be able to climb mountains and ridges. Most of the time, he was reticent, and it contrasted with the stone in the name.
"Back to the small square, the Luo family will launch the final alchemy to ignite the tea house and the hotel. The materials are the sources of the spiritual fire collected before." Luo Tang slowly replied.
"The source of spiritual fire?" Xia Fan frowned.
"Yes, although the spiritual fire is yin, it cannot drive away the charm, but the burning house can. In other words, this ‘city wall’ is our last torch."
This part is not included in his plan.
Obviously, Luo Qingming came up with this countermeasure.
If you really get there, it will be troublesome, Xia Fan thought to himself.
The fox demon is still recovering from his wounds in his own room. He can neither let him go nor show her in full view with her, so he must avoid the worst.
Half an hour later, the sun completely fell under the mountain, and the purple-red sky completely turned to jet black, and the originally hazy vision deteriorated further, retreating to the foot of the "fortress". Xia Fan estimated that even if a torch on the wall was not extinguished, they could only see a distance of about 20 meters away from the street. Farther away, the firelight seemed to be blocked by the thick mist, and could no longer move forward.
At the same time, there was evening breeze blowing over people's heads-it did not resemble the normal air flow at the turn of day and night, with a hint of coolness in the warmth, but came and went invisible, as if it could penetrate the human body. , It makes the back cold.
the torch flickered.
The crowd that was still noisy before has fallen into silence unknowingly. The candidates can't help but hold their breath, staring at the darkness in front of them, not even daring to breathe a trace of atmosphere.
Anyone realizes that this night will never be too easy tonight.
Suddenly, Xia Fan saw the edge of the swaying fire, and there was a strange change-only a part of the darkness seemed to break away from the night and fog, and fell to the dim ground.
It does not overlap the ground, but stays upright, which means that it is neither a shadow or an illusion, but something close to the entity!
Because they were too far apart, Xia Fan couldn't discern more details except for being able to barely tell that it was a human form.
It’s just that the black shadow moves very slowly, and there is even an unnatural sense of fragmentation, as if the previous step to the next step is not a coherent movement, but a blink of an eye.
"They are here." Luo Tang whispered.
"That...is the charm?" Zhang Yan took off the short bow and held it in her hand, completely losing the ease before.
"Mei is just a collective name... The evil in the night of the Great Wilderness, this is the first time I have seen it." She swallowed, trying to conceal the tension in her words.
As more darkness peeled off, the yin wind seemed to increase a lot, and the torch of the city head shook obviously.
Xia Fan keenly noticed that the places covered by night seemed to no longer light up-once the fire light shrank, the darkness would occupy it. He thought it was an illusion at first, but compared with the visible width of the street. But know that the place they can see is indeed shrinking!
The ink colors between heaven and earth seem to merge into one at this moment, and this fortress is the only weak light in the darkness.
As the black shadow gradually approached, Xia Fan could see more clearly. The number of them is not too much at present, about eight or nine appearing in front of the western wall, the first of which is within ten meters of the city wall. When its appearance was completely under the firelight, Xia Fan couldn't help taking a breath.
"Fuck."
This evil appearance is too far from what he expected!
He originally thought it was a besieged city of zombies, but the thing in front of him completely broke away from the definition of a corpse. It has only a human-shaped profile, a large head and slender limbs. Most of its body is covered by a shell composed of dirt, branches and other debris. ~ IndoMTL.com ~ The interior can be seen empty in the broken place-as if there is a deep under the shell. The bottomless hole also seemed to have a large amount of black mist surging.
Except for a pair of "hollows" on the top of the head, there are no other features on Mei's body-no nose or mouth, the head and torso are integrated, which reminds Xia Fan of Silent Hill. Those monsters in. Although there are differences in appearance, the feelings are very similar: they are all manifestations of pure and malicious, and just looking at them makes people shudder.
"Oh..."
There was a sound of vomiting around.
Xia Fan also felt her stomach churn, no matter how terrifying the monster, she wouldn't be able to vomit it out. This disgusting discomfort has nothing to do with the shape, but something more profound...
He has never had a similar experience, and it is difficult to describe for a while. He only feels that what is in front of him is naturally opposed to the living. As long as it is a living thing, he will subconsciously hate and reject it.
The only thing that is fortunate is that their moving speed has not changed. A short distance of ten meters, it took almost five or six minutes, even the zombies with limbs can crawl faster than them.
This at least allows everyone to have enough time to prepare for alchemy.
"Don't be afraid, everyone, as long as the torch is not extinguished, charm cannot threaten us!"
Someone yelled suddenly on the west wall.
Xia Fan followed the prestige and found that the other party was Feinian.
He raised a talisman high, and then threw out the white powder in his hand——
"Li Shu go to you, Fei Huayan!"
When the talisman talisman turned into ashes, a bright bridge of flame appeared between the wall and the charm.
The flames are like flying snakes, rushing towards the target, and engulfing the charm in an instant!
