Chapter 45 (1/2)
Early in the morning, there was a white mist on Zhenze lake, which spread from the lake to dozens of miles along the lake, and everything was hazy.
The white fog began to attack Binhu town. The south wall has been shrouded in white fog. Because of the obstruction of the array, it did not diffuse into the city.
……
”Lao Li Tou, why don't you say that the monster hasn't come yet? The whole city has been on alert for nearly half a month.” A thin young man complained to a man in his late fifties.
”You boy is still looking forward to the monsters. Every time the monsters of Zhenze Lake flood attack, mortals like us always lose dozens of people. Even those congenital experts are vulnerable to these monsters.” The middle-aged man said with a sad face.
Then he whispered to the young man's ear,
”I also heard that several monks who came down the mountain died once.”
”Really? It can't be true? Aren't those monks powerful? ” The young man looked incredulous.
The middle-aged man glanced at him and said:
”Believe it or not, you think those monsters are easy to deal with. If it weren't for the resistance of this wall, we mortals would have died.”
When the middle-aged man finished, he ignored the young man, looked at the white fog in front of him, and muttered to himself:
”It's not winter. Why is the lake so foggy?” And involuntarily held the long gun tighter.
……
After a while, the sound of water came from under the city wall. Although it was very subtle, it was very noisy.
”Hey, listen! Is there any movement under the city? ”
”There seems to be some water noise.”
”Get up, get up, there's something!”
……
Some of the sleeping mortals guarding the city were awakened by the people next to them. A group of mortals were discussing the strange sound of water.
”Wu Chang, look?” A soldier said to the man dressed as an officer.
”You stay here. I'll ask immortal master to have a look.” Then he ran to a city tower upstairs.
At this time, a monk practicing Qi on the third floor of the building just finished his overnight practice, holding half a spirit stone in his hand.
”Unfortunately, they have taken a task to monitor the city wall. They are good at practicing on the spiritual pulse of the city. It's difficult for me to have this spiritual power here. It's not enough for cultivation.” The monk kept complaining in his heart.
”Immortal master, there is a strange noise under the wall. Please check it quickly!” The chief's voice rang out.
”What are you talking about?” The monk said angrily.
The chief bowed his head more respectfully and said:
”To immortal master, there is a strange noise under the wall.”
The friar didn't dare to be careless when he heard it. He was responsible for patrolling. If he missed a big event, not only his life would be lost, but also the postwar family would ask questions.
”Take me there quickly!” The friar said to the chief of staff anxiously.
”Yes, yes, yes!” With the immortal master, Wu Chang ran to the wall of the city.
”Give way, immortal master is coming!”
”Look, immortal master is coming!”
……
The monk with three layers of Qi training passed through the crowd and lay down on the wall to look down. Although the white fog in front of him also hindered his sight, he was already a monk in the Qi training period and looked farther than ordinary people.
He vaguely felt that something in the water was swimming from the lake to the side of the wall, just when he was ready to look carefully,
Suddenly, a dark shadow rushed from the white fog and bumped into the monk. When he got close, he saw that it was a strange fish with a full mouth of fangs and a length of ten feet. Everyone was scared back, just when they were ready to escape.
The strange fish hit the light curtain of the moat array and immediately turned into a pool of meat mud and blood. Before everyone could breathe a sigh of relief, such strange fish flew out of the white fog and crashed into the light curtain without hesitation, and then turned into blood.
A fishy smell came, and the light curtain began to shake under the repeated impact.
”Monster attack! All staff are ready to fight and ring the alarm! ” The friar roared.
