Zi Gu stood beside Lian You You obediently. Lian You You looked at Yuchi Feng and said, "Fill up the oil immediately. Once it's full, we'll burn the mountain right away."
"Can we not burn it?" Yuchi Shaolang still couldn't bear to burn the mountain. He danced anxiously, "Do we just have to use fire to stop it? Then, I'll go dig a trench to make a fire wall right away. Benefactor, is this okay?!"
Lian Youyou looked at Yuchi Shaolang's anxious expression and was moved by his love for nature. They were a race of gods without emotions, and if they couldn't stop the Taotie, they would destroy the planet without hesitation.
She smiled with relief. This little bit of love from the world warmed her long-numb heart.
She reached out and stroked Yuchi Shaolang's face, her eyes gentle as if she was looking at her own child: "Your idea is better than mine, let's do it."
Yuchi Shaolang began to daze in Lian Youyou's warm hands. The warmth, which carried the scent of his benefactor, actually soothed all the uneasiness, anxiety, anger and grief in his heart, leaving only a peaceful tranquility.
Lian Youyou had already withdrawn her hand and looked at Yuchi Feng fiercely: "General, get your men to dig trenches and build a wall of fire immediately!"
"Yes!" Yuchi Feng immediately turned around and ordered, "All troops, listen up! Dig trenches!"
"Yes!" The loud shouts of the entire army echoed in the quiet sky.
Lian Youyou took Zi Gu to intercept the ferocious beast. When passing by Yuchi Feng's mansion, she asked Guan Ye and Fat Buddha to exchange Yun Xi and Yun Yao, and went to the mountain together to meet He Shiqi and Sanniang.
The mountain and the ground were littered with the corpses of ferocious beasts. Even though He Shiqi and Sanniang had tried their best to kill them, the number of Taotie still seemed to continue to emerge from the forests and mountains, like swarms of locusts, and they could not be killed.
“How could there be so many!” Even though Sanniang was not a human, there would be times when she ran out of energy.
He Shiqi carried the Lightning Sword and split the body of the Taotie again. It was obvious that they were no longer flying soldiers, but more like ordinary soldiers in the army. They were large in number, small in size, and without wings. They were cannon fodder, specially used to consume the enemy's combat power.
Those flying soldiers took off again and headed down the mountain.
"What should we do with those flying soldiers?" Sanniang looked at those flying away anxiously.
He Shiqi's face was calm: "Youyou will intercept, let's guard this line first, the real owner hasn't come down yet."
"What?!" Sanniang rolled her eyes speechlessly. After killing for so long, it turned out that they were still not the enemy generals. But she also saw with her own eyes the speed at which this thing split. Before, she only thought it was nothing when she heard Lian Youyou's description. Now that she saw it with her own eyes, she knew that Lian Youyou was not bluffing them this time. At this speed, if they couldn't defend here, the beast army would soon number in the hundreds of thousands or even millions!
The flying soldiers leaped over the forest and first saw the military camp and the people busy inside. The dense crowds of people were like a feast for the eyes! They immediately raised their necks and made a strange "da da da da" sound. The sound was not loud, and even people standing on the ground would not hear it, but it could be heard thousands of miles away by their tribesmen.
This is how terrifying they are. They come, they cry, and humans know nothing about it.
Suddenly, a red musket shot up from below and pierced through the flying beast's neck. The next moment, Yun Xi jumped up, grabbed the musket, and slashed it backwards fiercely.
"Hiss!" The huge flying beast was cut into two directly in the air, and a burnt smell filled the air.
The body of the flying beast was broken into two halves and fell straight down from the sky. "Bang!" Two loud noises directly crushed the two sheds in the barracks!
The busy soldiers were frightened by the two loud noises and looked over. When they saw the huge monster's body split in half, their faces turned pale!
Guo De and Guo Gang realized that Miss Lian had not fooled them! Why was their general so nervous and afraid
The soldiers finally felt fear when they saw the monster. They stood there stiffly, as if they had been completely frightened out of their wits and unable to move.
They were just ordinary soldiers stationed in Liangzhou, not the Yuchi Army. Even if they were the Yuchi Army, they were just standing there in a daze.
Yuchi Feng saw that everyone was frightened by the monster and felt that the situation was not good. How could we fight this battle when we were already frightened by the enemy before we even started the battle? !
He immediately jumped onto the highest pile of food and grass and shouted, "What are you still looking at?! Hurry up and work! Otherwise, the monster will come down the mountain and you, us, and our families will all become its food!"
Yuchi Feng's words really worked. People who were frightened by the monster were more afraid of being eaten by the monster! Nothing can make people more courageous and inspire courage than saving their lives. Because survival is a human instinct.
"As you can see, we have gods and men to help us!" Yuchi Feng pointed at Yun Xi and Yun Yao who were flying in the sky. Although he used to not believe in ghosts and gods, everything that happened today forced him to believe that this world really doesn't just have them, the little mortals. "What we have to do is to create a wall of fire to help them resist the beasts! Brothers! In order to protect our families and our homes! We have to fight the beasts to the end—"
Yuchi Feng raised his fist high. The soldiers calmed down after hearing his inspiring words. They raised their fists and shouted, "Fight to the end! Fight to the end!"
Yuchi Feng looked up at the ferocious beasts hovering in the sky and fighting with the flying beasts. He was amazed by their divine power. Suddenly, he felt that he was so insignificant. Human beings were so insignificant.
Liangzhou had fallen into chaos, but the capital city far to the east knew nothing about it.
The sky there is still blue, and birds are chasing and playing. Even the birds here don’t know that a group of greedy beasts have been dug out by a group of greedy people in the distant Liangzhou.
It was already afternoon, and people were more lazy in the autumn. Some were playing chess in front of their doors, while others were gathering in a teahouse drinking tea, eating peanuts and watching a play.
Emperor Cheng and the Empress also enjoyed the flowers in their own imperial garden. In late autumn, the golden osmanthus had faded, but the garden was full of chrysanthemums. The most beautiful place of the year was the imperial garden.
Emperor Cheng had no chance to propose marriage to Prime Minister Lin. Every time when he was about to hint, Prime Minister Lin pretended to be confused and left. Emperor Cheng had a feeling that Prime Minister Lin was reluctant to part with his own daughter, Lin Shiyue.
Emperor Cheng was a benevolent emperor. He was empathetic and would not bear to let his outstanding daughter marry to anyone else.
Then today, the autumn scenery is very beautiful. Emperor Cheng invited Prime Minister Lin to the Imperial Garden to appreciate the famous chrysanthemums, and then try to talk to Prime Minister Lin about marriage. Perhaps Prime Minister Lin also thought that he wanted to propose marriage to the prince. Alas, it can be seen that Prime Minister Lin really despises his bear prince.
Speaking of the prince, he has been a little confused recently. He always feels that Duanmu Qingchen has changed a little since he came back from the National Temple. He has become quiet, always worried and silent. Is he still feeling guilty about the National Temple? (To be continued)
