Vines of different shapes slowly occupy every inch of open space in the dense forest, and the mountains and plains are getting larger and larger.
The old demon of Yinshan is like a fish in water, and the dense rain forest is his home.
More and more people are going up the mountain, lighting torches and forming a long queue of fire.
When the Prince of Qin, Li Guanghan, and others crossed the mountainside, the old demon of Yinshan did not make a move;
When hundreds of elite soldiers rushed up behind him, the old demon from Yinshan did not make a move. Both the Balrog and the horned demon Nagus were a little unable to hold back. The old demon was still lurking in the bushes and waiting quietly.
After nearly one-third of the mighty pursuers crossed the mountainside, the old demon from Yinshan finally took action.
The shrill screams quickly pierced the night sky.
The first person to die was a young commander with good cultivation, followed by hundreds of elite soldiers who were like wolves and tigers. The group of people got into a forest that looked ordinary. Nothing unusual could be seen around them. As they walked, the little commander who was leading the way suddenly lost his footing and fell into a pit. The pit was not too deep, but unfortunately, there happened to be a sharp stone protruding from it, which penetrated the little commander's chest, causing blood to flow and he was instantly dead. The soldiers who followed rushed up and raised their torches to see, everyone's scalp was numb.
A commander rushed over after hearing the news. After a quick inspection, he turned around and left. He treated it as an ordinary accident and ordered the soldiers to continue walking.
"Everyone, be careful and watch your steps!"
"Hold the torch higher and follow, be careful not to fall behind!"
…
The deputy commander who temporarily led the team shouted reminders as he walked and led the small team to continue moving forward. In the deep mountains and dense forests, there were thousands or hundreds of such teams, spreading out towards the top of the mountain and being ordered to search out the injured Ye Chuan.
The soldiers showed no fear and even talked and laughed. Like the commander, they regarded what just happened as an accident. But soon, the group felt something was wrong.
Not far away, the deputy commander who had just been promoted on the battlefield encountered the same accident. The difference was that he did not fall into a pit, but suddenly lost his footing while walking, and his neck happened to get stuck between a tree and two big trees. On the vines between the trees. I don’t know what kind of vine it is. It’s very thin, but it’s tougher than a steel rope and its edge is sharper than a bayonet. The deputy commander's body was so heavy that his neck was cut open by the thin vine, and his whole head almost fell off. The soldiers rushed forward, but they couldn't cover the commander's throat with both hands, and blood came out like spring water.
"There is..., there is a mountain demon, hurry up..." The deputy commander struggled for a while and then tilted his head to one side and died. It would be better if he died. It would be over once and for all, but the soldiers became frightened. The two commanders, one and the other, died one after another, and they died in such a strange way, which is really horrifying when you think about it carefully.
The Yunwu Mountains are majestic and vast mountains with thousands of kilometers in radius. The mountains are densely forested and there are large tracts of virgin forests that are inaccessible. There are many legends since ancient times. According to legend, there is a kind of mountain monster on the mountain. It is not much bigger than a monkey, but it is extremely powerful and agile and can even control the wind and rain. Different from ordinary monsters, the mountain monster is a ghost-like evil thing that specializes in sucking people's blood essence and yang. It cannot be killed by ordinary methods. It comes out to look for food as soon as it gets dark. If you encounter it, you will die. . Because its shape is somewhat similar to that of a monkey, it is also called a mountain monkey.
The encounter between the two commanders, one positive and one negative, as well as the deputy commander's words before his death, quickly reminded the soldiers of the terrible legend. For a moment, everyone was sweating in their hearts. There are many people and horses going up the mountain, but if they are scattered throughout the huge flat-top mountain, two hundred thousand people and horses coming out is just a drop in the ocean. Mountains separate mountains, cols separate cols, and the two centurions are at least one or two kilometers apart. This distance is nothing on flat land, but once they got into the dense rainforest, it suddenly seemed as if they were so far away that they couldn't see each other. Many times I can hear sounds, but I just can't see anyone.
With both the chief and deputy commanders gone, and the terrible rumors, the soldiers quickly fell into chaos and were leaderless. Some people insisted on continuing to move forward and climbed to the top of the mountain to join the large troops. Some people suggested staying on the spot and waiting for daybreak. Some people backed down and turned around and left, not daring to continue drilling into the dense forest.
The sound of rustling sounded at this moment. It was not loud, like the sound of rain, and sounded in people's ears like the sound of someone's footsteps.
"Everyone, be careful!" Some experienced soldiers quickly became vigilant. Unfortunately, the group of dragons was leaderless and could not quickly form a formation to protect them.
Weird vines suddenly came from all directions, under the feet, between rocks, in the trees... countless vines emerged from everywhere, wrapping around the hands, feet, bodies or necks of the soldiers, and even penetrated the soldiers like bayonets. their chests.
Heart-rending screams and screams suddenly rang out and spread far across the night sky.
The centurions nearby heard the news and rushed over. Their scalps were all numb, their hands holding torches were trembling, and their teeth were chattering.
In a short period of time, a hundred-man army was wiped out. The wounds were different, but one thing was the same. Each corpse had muscles atrophied, and the blood in the body was drained and turned into a mummy. Strangely, there were not a few drops of blood on the ground.
"It's a mountain demon. It specializes in sucking blood and Yuan Yang. It must be the mountain demon who did it."
Someone quickly remembered the terrible legend, and the soldiers who arrived after hearing the news were all frightened. Before the commanders could find out what was going on, the screams rang out again.
Similar scenes appeared one after another in many places in the mountain.
The old demon Rhodes of Yinshan Mountain was erratic, moving freely through the dense forest, hunting down the lives of groups of soldiers. If you accidentally encounter a master among the soldiers, you will naturally have the Balrog and the Horned Demon Nagus to deal with it. He is only responsible for creating large-scale panic and chaos.
The laughter kept echoing in the mountains.
With the cover of night and dense forest, the old demon from Yinshan went on a killing spree, feeling more joyful than ever before. There is no one under Ye Chuan who is more suitable to create widespread panic and chaos than him. The Qin Dynasty army that entered the mountain overnight quickly fell into chaos.
Da Qin Crown Prince Li Guanghan and his party, who had been walking at the front, suddenly stopped and looked back at the dense forest behind them, with serious expressions on their faces.
Ye Chuan's breath was getting closer and closer, and he was probably healing on the top of a mountain not far away. But at this time, a large-scale commotion suddenly appeared behind him, with rapid horn sounds, soldiers' shouts and shrill screams intertwined. Being together makes people feel nervous, wondering how many ambushes Ye Chuan has laid in the mountains.
"Your Highness, this is a trap! That boy Ye Chuan is obviously trying to lure us into the bait. We must order the entire army to retreat and withdraw from the mountains. We can no longer hesitate!"
Taoist exterminator reminded him with a stern look on his face.
Ye Chuan's methods were still beyond expectations. The mountains are high and the forests are dense, and the sky is dark. At this time, the army is scattered everywhere and large-scale chaos occurs. This is fatal. If you are not careful, the entire army will collapse.
The Crown Prince of Qin, Li Guanghan, became embarrassed and his face was ashen.
After finally chasing him all the way here, he saw that Ye Chuan was not far ahead. At this time, he turned around and retreated. Not only would all the previous efforts be wasted, but a great opportunity would also be lost. If we continue to move forward, whether we can kill Ye Chuan in one fell swoop, let alone whether the army following behind may suffer a more severe ambush and suffer heavy losses. Once the army is broken up, it will be difficult to regroup.
Is it worth gambling on a chance to kill Ye Chuan with an army of 200,000
Li Guanghan hesitated and faced a difficult choice.
