After fighting with Black Charcoal Head for a while, the Toad Demon knew that he could not win, so he immediately made a "quack quack" sound from his mouth. Soon, tens of thousands of toads jumped out of the swamp and rushed towards the crowd frantically.
There were many crocodiles following the toad. The old duke felt even more terrified when he saw this scene than when he saw the dense swarms of bats in the sky that night.
"Where did all these toads come from? They are quite big, and I don't know if they are edible. If they are, then we won't be short of meat during the journey."
"Don't just focus on eating them yet. We need to see if we can defeat them. I heard their saliva is poisonous."
"Hey! What are they following? Why do they look so scary? Everyone, get your weapons ready and kill those things."
"Don't panic! They can't get in. See? Just like the bats that night, they are isolated and can't get in at all."
"So we can't get out?"
The old Duke looked at the man impatiently: "What are you going to do outside? This is the barrier set up by the Imperial Master to protect us. Without her order, we can't go out."
"There is no need to go out. We cannot let down the good intentions of the Imperial Master."
Everyone was talking at once, and all the toads outside pounced on the barrier and couldn't get in at all.
The barrier was cast by Xiao Jin. The black dragon went to fight the toad spirit. It raised its claws and cast a barrier for the person its master cared about.
If those people get hurt, the owner will be sad. It has been with her for who knows how many years. The owner has always longed for the company of her family. In this life, she finally has it, so nothing can go wrong.
The crocodiles at the back seemed to be angry. They ran over and hit the barrier. There was fresh food inside and they couldn't wait.
The crocodiles were very strong, and there were a lot of them, so the barrier was fluctuating. The people inside felt that the crocodiles were about to rush in front of them, and they were all scared and pale.
Although they rarely see this thing, they have seen it before. They are very ferocious and can bite people and animals to death.
I didn't expect there were so many ferocious beasts in this swamp. Fortunately, we had the imperial teacher, otherwise so many people would have been killed or injured.
Seeing that the Toad Demon couldn't cause any trouble, Xiao Jin ran to the crocodile, baring his teeth and grimacing.
"You want to break through the barrier? To harm the people inside? Don't you know that the barrier I set up is very strong? Besides, you are just a bunch of crocodiles without any spiritual power. Why do you think you can eat the people inside?"
Crocodiles are indeed ordinary crocodiles, and have no other advantages except their large numbers.
Naituanzi looked back at Xiao Jin's actions, walked to where the old duke and the old soldiers were, stretched out his hand, and made a hole in the barrier.
He raised his fat hand, pointed at the crocodile that had broken in, and shouted to the old Duke: "Kill, kill, eat meat, eat meat."
The old duke and his bodyguards understood what was said, and they attacked the crocodile that crawled in with hammers, carrying poles, hoes and axes.
If another one comes in, we’ll fight again.
Come in again and continue fighting.
Come in again and fight again.
It's like playing whack-a-mole.
The old duke and his personal soldiers looked carefully and saw that there was a small hole in that place, and a crocodile just happened to jump in, and neither end could squeeze in.
Everybody stand on both sides, come in and fight, every hit is accurate.
Xiao Jin saw this and found it interesting, so he also poked a hole in the barrier. However, he didn't control it well, and the hole he poked was a bit big, so two crocodiles squeezed in at once.
Yang Heng and his soldiers followed the old duke's example and started shooting with whatever they had in their hands, and they always hit their targets accurately.
He understood what his niece said just now. This thing is meat and can be eaten.
"Listen up everyone, these things have meat. If we kill them, we'll have enough meat for the journey."
When his men heard this, they fought even harder.
Meat, meat, meat.
If this thing is really edible, there is a lot of meat. They have to work hard, as it will take several days to complete the bridge construction anyway.
The crocodiles are not fools. When they heard the screams of their companions who had gone in front of them, many of them learned their lesson and stayed where they were instead of rushing to climb in.
Seeing that they were not coming in, Yang Heng tried to walk out. As soon as he reached the entrance of the barrier, he saw two huge crocodiles pouncing towards him.
He ran back quickly, and the crocodile followed him in. He ended up in a terrible situation, as he was hit repeatedly by the people standing by, causing the crocodile to roll its eyes.
Finally, he closed his eyes and kept smashing it, only stopping when he was sure that nothing was moving.
After this happened several times, the crocodiles became scared and no longer dared to chase the people who came out.
The toad demon over there was beaten by Black Charcoal Head and screamed in pain. He vomited out all the mucus in his stomach. The red tasseled spear in his hand was slammed into the swamp water by Black Charcoal Head's claw.
The tattered hat on his head broke into pieces and scattered all over the ground. The red cloak on his body was torn into strips of cloth. His pot-bellied belly deflated and could no longer spit out mucus.
When the charcoal-head attacked it again, it quickly knelt down and kowtowed for mercy.
"Stop hitting me, stop hitting me, please spare me!"
The moment it knelt down, it returned to its original form, turning out to be an old toad.
"Let you go?" The charcoal-haired man pointed at the old toad on the ground angrily and said in a sly tone, "It's not impossible. Tell me, who sent you?"
The old toad's bulging eyes rolled around. He raised one of his front legs and kept touching his bald head, not knowing how to answer this question.
Who sent it? No one sent it! This place is its home. It has lived here for hundreds of years since it was born. Few people dare to disturb it.
For some reason, this group of people today wanted to build a bridge in its home, which made it very angry. It waved its hand and threw the wood into the water.
After rolling his eyes several times, the old toad thought it was better to tell the truth. It was really not sent by anyone, and within a hundred miles, no one else had been heard of with stronger abilities than it.
"No one sent me here. This place is my home. I have lived here for a long, long time. I have lived here since I was born. I have never heard of anyone who is stronger than me and can lead me."
Chu Xiaoxiao watched Black Charcoal Head subdue the old toad and followed him over. Black Charcoal Head bowed respectfully to her and reported, "Master! It said it was not sent by the noble family of Nanyun Country."
[Oh? It grew wildly?]
The old toad looked at the two-year-old baby in front of him with his bulging eyes, and a huge wave like a tsunami rose in his heart.
What? This baby is the owner of the black dragon?
No way?
This little baby looks like an ordinary person, how could he have a dragon as his servant? Is the black dragon stupid?
No, he was not stupid. It must be that his cultivation was not good enough and he could not see that the baby was different.
If I become her servant, will I be on equal footing with the black dragon?
If it surrenders sincerely, will the baby accept it?
