Soon, everyone heard a loud roar from the front left, and Nunu immediately cried softly.
"That's the cry of the river turtle! Little boy, is that the voice of the demon turtle?" Chen Xibi turned his head and asked.
An Chengcai immediately said, "Reporting to the general, it was the voice of the demon turtle. I remember it clearly."
"Be prepared to kill the monster!"
The soldiers lit torches one after another. The burning time of torches was limited, so they were not very useful on the road. However, they had to be prepared when killing monsters, as the monsters' night vision was much stronger than that of ordinary soldiers.
Fang Yun hurriedly took off the longbow on his back, drew out an arrow and put it on the bow, pointing the arrow at the ground, ready to shoot at any time.
The atmosphere before the war was extremely depressing.
Fang Yun looked around and found that the soldiers still had a cold look on their faces, while the three classes of scholars were much worse. They were breathing rapidly, their chests heaving, and they were very nervous, as if they had encountered a strange bird monster.
Fang Yun's palms also began to sweat. The last time he killed a monster, it was just a trial run. He only killed monster soldiers and civilians, and did not even see the monster general. But this time he was attacking a monster turtle whose strength was close to that of the monster commander. It was a hundred times more dangerous than the last time.
A cold wind blew by, and everyone couldn't help but shiver.
Then County Magistrate He was seen writing poems on his robe, one was an inspiring poem and the other was a poem to strengthen the soldiers. Then Jinshi Chen Xi wrote a poem called "Sharing the Same Robe with You". Like Mr. Wang's, this poem also had a poetic soul, and it was even stronger than Mr. Wang's, giving everyone a layer of transparent energy armor.
No one found it strange. This Chen Xibi was over 40 years old and had been fighting on the battlefield all the time. It was normal for him to have one or two war poems with poetic soul.
"Set off!"
Everyone walked towards the place where the demon turtle was roaring.
Soon, they saw a group of patrolling monsters. The two scholars didn't need to waste their time arguing. The scholars in the army drew their bows and shot, killing more than a dozen monsters with one arrow each, with great accuracy.
Fang Yun nodded secretly. The talent of a scholar is limited. Once the talent is exhausted, he can't just stand by and watch. He can use the bow and arrow to continue fighting. The physical fitness of a scholar is far superior to that of an elite soldier or a student. It can be said that all scholars who have served in the army are good archers.
More than four hundred people continued to rush forward, and more than a hundred monsters suddenly attacked them.
All the candidates and jinshi did not take any action. Hundreds of archers in the army shot a few arrows, and more than a hundred monsters were killed. Under the effect of the jinshi's strong army poem, those monster soldiers were vulnerable.
Fang Yun once again realized the power of war poetry. With the combined power of heroic poems, inspiring poems and poems to strengthen the army, these disorganized evil soldiers and civilians were nothing but sitting ducks.
Fang Yun had read in a book that most monsters were only good at close combat. The monsters would only send out organized long-range attack teams during large-scale battles, and their power was stronger than that of humans' catapults.
The noise in front was getting louder and louder. Fang Yun stopped analyzing the battle and became fully alert. He followed Mr. Wang's instructions and put saving his life first.
Nunu suddenly jumped onto Fang Yun's clothes tray, pointed to the place where the fighting sound came from, then suddenly rolled on the tray, straightened his body, and then crawled like a snake without shaking his legs. If the situation wasn't urgent, Fang Yun would have laughed out loud.
"Are you talking about that snake demon? What happened to it?" Fang Yun asked.
Nunu nodded, then widened his eyes, opened his mouth and bit down hard, as if to intimidate Fang Yun.
"You mean the snake demon is very powerful?"
Nunu nodded, then pointed at Mr. Wang with his left paw, placed his left paw in the air, and pointed his right paw at the place where the snake demon was fighting, placing his right paw at a higher position than his left paw.
Fang Yun understood immediately and asked in surprise: "Is that snake demon the demon commander?"
Nunu nodded again, then suddenly fell down, covering his chest with his paws, looking very painful.
"Is it the injured demon commander?"
Nunu nodded again.
"Which one is stronger, the snake demon or the turtle demon?"
Nunu placed the right paw, representing the snake demon, in the air, then placed the left paw under the right paw, but then placed it on top of the right paw, and then placed both paws on the head, making it look like a little rabbit with big ears.
Fang Yun asked, "Does that mean that although the demon turtle is only a demon general, because it has pseudo-dragon blood, it is now more powerful than the injured demon commander?"
Nunu nodded.
At this moment, someone suddenly shouted: "It's that demon handsome man!"
Fang Yun hurriedly looked at the battlefield in front of him. He was close to the top of the mountain. All the trees within hundreds of meters had been broken, and a large area of open space was cleared by the powerful force. In addition to the broken trees, there were many corpses of monsters lying in disorder on the open space.
Everyone saw a demon turtle as big as a house leading four demon generals and hundreds of demon soldiers and civilians to besiege a snake demon.
The snake demon was a full fifteen feet long, and its body was as thick as two people could hug together. Its body was covered in red and black circles, and it had a blood-red fleshy crown on its head. It was extremely terrifying.
"Crowned snake demon! It's the demon commander with the dirty writings of the great scholar!" One person couldn't help but whispered.
"Kill it! You must kill it!" a scholar shouted angrily. It was this evil snake that slaughtered two villages.
"It turns out that the demon commander used magic to change his appearance. General, report this to the governor. We must not let the erotic writings of the great scholar disappear from our sight."
Chen Xibi nodded and said, "Tear up three official seals and red documents. Within an hour, the governor will definitely bring people here. If anything happens to us, remember to tear up four and ask for help from Lord Jianmei. However, a seriously injured demon commander and a tortoise demon will not cause us to get hurt. If you capture the snake demon and get the dirty document from the great scholar, you will have done a great deed! Everyone will be promoted one level!"
Chen Xibi's personal soldiers took out three red official seals of the governor and tore them open at the same time, and the red official seals immediately burned.
The demon snake and demon turtle not far away suddenly stopped fighting, slowly retreated a distance, and looked at the human side.
An Chengcai suddenly walked behind a tree, as if he was avoiding something.
No one noticed him except Nunu.
Chen Xibi did not take the initiative to attack. The longer he delayed, the better it would be for him.
The demon snake and the demon turtle communicated in demon language for a while, and suddenly led the demon soldiers and civilians to rush over together.
The demon turtle was dark blue all over, and its shell was not smooth, but had hill-like protrusions. The demon turtle looked bulky, but its four legs could accelerate its crawling faster than an ordinary person running at full speed.
A red evil wind formed around it, which was full of powerful oppressive force.
Its pair of green eyes flashed with a strange light, as if it could evoke the deepest fear in the hearts of human beings, and anyone who saw it would become weak in their hands and feet.
Many people subconsciously took a step back. Fang Yun also felt as if he was shrouded in a nightmare, and his whole body was weak. Then Wen Dan moved, and Fang Yun immediately returned to normal. The others were still terrified.
"What a terrifying demon clan! Ordinary demon generals will never scare me. This demon turtle might really have a fake dragon ball, and its strength is almost as strong as that of the demon commander." Fang Yun thought.
Chen Xibi shouted loudly, mobilizing his literary power and said, "Not good! They have united! County Magistrate He, you and I will join forces to stop the turtle snake, and the rest of you will quickly kill all the monsters and then help the two of us. Attack!"
Chen Xibi's voice woke everyone up, and Fang Yun, like all the archers, began shooting with all his strength.
The demon turtle showed a contemptuous smile, opened its big mouth and took a breath, after three breaths, it suddenly roared.
"It's witchcraft! Take cover under the trees!"
As soon as he finished speaking, a terrifying wave fifty feet long, ten feet high and five feet wide formed in front of the demon turtle, and then rushed towards it at an extremely fast speed.
"This power is no less than the demon commander's magic and the Jinshi war poem, so be careful!"
After Chen Xibi finished speaking, he and County Magistrate He opened their mouths and spit out an ancient sword of talent at the same time. The two ancient swords pierced through the huge waves in an instant and killed the demon turtle.
The huge waves exploded, losing their magical power, but a large amount of water was still there, rushing over, and no longer posed much of a threat.
The two ancient swords of talent stabbed at the demon turtle at the same time. Instead of shrinking its head, the demon turtle suddenly moved forward, slapped Chen Xibi's ancient sword of talent with one claw, and then stretched out its head to bite County Magistrate He's ancient sword of talent.
With a snap, Magistrate He's ancient sword of talent was bitten to pieces by the demon turtle and exploded into a ball of white mist, while Chen Xibi's ancient sword of talent was knocked away.
Cracks appeared on Chen Xibi's ancient sword, and a large wound appeared on the demon turtle's claw, but the wound healed in the blink of an eye.
Many people who saw it clearly gasped.
"An ordinary demon commander can never reach this level. Not even the demon turtle commander can. The blood of this demon turtle must be extraordinary. Its fake dragon ball is probably stronger than imagined. No wonder it dares to kill the snake demon commander!" Li Yuncong said in surprise.
The ancient sword of talent was connected to his own talent, and County Magistrate He's body shook, and blood flowed from his nose.
Chen Xibi made a prompt decision and shouted, "This demon turtle not only has the fake dragon ball, but is also about to become a demon commander. If we fight it, there will be a lot of casualties. Tear up the four official seals and red documents and ask for help from Lord Li! All scholars immediately retreat three feet! All candidates, be careful."
The demon turtle suddenly grinned and said in a not-so-standard human language: "We knew that Li Wenying was stationed in Yuhai City. It would take at least two quarters of an hour to get here. Otherwise, I would not dare to leave the Yangtze River. It will take me one quarter of an hour to kill you all, not two quarters of an hour! I am just a demon general. According to convention, even if I kill you all, Li Wenying will not go to the Yangtze River to cause trouble for us!"
Chen Xibi sneered, "I have two Jinshi Wenbao here, you can't kill me. Besides, convention? When did Lord Li follow the convention? Hand over the dirty Confucian texts, and we'll leave immediately."
The demon turtle said angrily: "The filthy text of the great scholar belongs to my Jiaolong Palace, why should I give it to you?"
"Because the original text was written by a great scholar of our human race, it should belong to our human race." Chen Xi wrote.
"I don't want to offend Li Wenying, but I am determined to get the great scholar's dirty article! With this achievement, I can go to the Dragon Platform! I can't kill you two Jinshi, but what about those Juren? What about those Xiucai? I will exchange their lives for the great scholar's dirty article, and you..."
Suddenly, the snake demon on the side opened its mouth wide and bit the demon turtle's hind leg. The snake's fangs pierced into the leg, and a large amount of venom was injected into the dragon turtle's body from the fangs.
But in just a moment, the demon snake suddenly jumped up from the ground and glided into the distance.
"Oh no! The great scholar's obscene writings are in the hands of the evil snake!" County Magistrate He shouted.
"You go and intercept the snake demon, I will stop it here. We must not let the snake demon escape with the filthy article of the great scholar!"
County Magistrate He had a poem about running fast, so he immediately bypassed the turtle monster and chased after the snake monster.
"Demon turtle, why don't we kill the snake demon first and then..."
“Roar…” The demon turtle suddenly roared, and its originally green eyes turned blood red. Blood and poison flowed out from every part of its body. The surrounding demons and soldiers died immediately if they came into contact with the poisonous fog.
