Chapter 370: The Bandit Village is in Danger
The rustling sound became more and more frequent, like the amplified sound of spring silkworms eating.
Yue Mushan was on full alert, and Ye Xiaoman also took out the nameless sword.
A corner of the reeds was crushed, the grass stalks fell down, and a fishy wind blew. Ye Xiaoman looked in the light of the demon pill and saw a group of mutant monks with human faces and scorpion tails holding weapons appearing in front of them.
These scorpion people have become strange-looking, neither human nor insect. Their feet have turned into scorpion tails, and a pair of pedipalps have grown from the shoulder blades on their backs. They use their hands as legs to walk on the ground, with the stingers on their tails raised high.
Although still alive, he looks more disgusting than the zombies of the apocalypse.
The leading scorpion gave a signal, and the other scorpions scattered and hid in the dark shadows of the grass, surrounding them from all sides.
The attackers seemed to be very familiar with the terrain, and cleverly used the plants in the green gauze tent to hide their tracks. They seemed to be the landlords of Haizhu, so dealing with them was as easy as taking candy from a baby.
Ye Xiaoman felt embarrassed because she had chosen the wrong place for the date.
But she had enjoyed it, so she had nothing to complain about.
Yue Mushan saw the enemy and wanted to stand in front of Ye Xiaoman to protect her, but Ye Xiaoman was one step ahead of him and pushed him behind her naturally.
Yue Mushan was stunned. He wanted to touch the magic weapon on his waist, but found that he had even used the Miao Dao. A feeling of unwillingness and shame surged in his chest, and his nails dug into his palms.
The leading scorpion monk laughed strangely: "Are you new here?"
It didn't attack immediately. Ye Xiaoman played along and laughed it off. "Sorry for disturbing you, big brother. Let's leave immediately."
The Scorpion Monk said gloomily: "Since you have come to Guizhu, you are our prey. Capture it!"
As soon as it finished speaking, several scorpion men jumped out from the shadow of the reeds. Ye Xiaoman gripped the hilt of the sword tightly, and a sword energy swept out like a crescent moon, cutting the scorpion men running in the front in half.
The sword blade fed with Youtanbalahua is as useful as ever.
The scorpion man's broken limbs injured by her were emitting black mist, and he crawled on the ground screaming. After a while, it seemed as if it had been melted by strong sulfuric acid and turned into a pool of black water.
The leading Scorpion Monk took a step back and said in surprise, "You are quite capable."
It grabbed the bone whistle hanging around its neck. Seeing this, Ye Xiaoman immediately drew her sword and flashed in front of it. Before Ye Xiaoman cut off its arm, it blew the signal first.
"Second Master, come quickly..."
The Scorpion Monk was chopped down by Ye Xiaoman. At the same time, a strong wind blew, pressing the plants in the entire reed field to the ground. Ye Xiaoman and Yue Mushan stood back to back to support the defensive magic circle, so they were not blown to the ground by the strong wind.
A scorpion man, even larger than the previous minions, came over. The stinger on the scorpion tail on the lower body flashed with a chilling cold light. The upper body was that of a wine-drinking and meat-eating monk with a round face, big ears, and thick beard on his cheeks.
It became furious when it saw several of its younger brothers being hacked to death by Ye Xiaoman, and suppressed them with a mighty pressure that defeated the Ten Evils. The person was a powerful warrior in the late Jindan stage, and Ye Xiaoman could not stop him.
Her knees went weak and she almost fell down. Yue Mushan stood beside her and supported her.
She was not panicked at all, as she still had external support. After assessing the gap in strength, she immediately sent a telepathic message to ask for help: "Master Jiaying, help!"
The scorpion's stinger was pressed against her throat, and Yue Mushan screamed, "Sister!"
The second-in-command of Guizhu Village grabbed Ye Xiaoman and held her in front of him with his claws. He felt an unknown threat and looked around nervously, finally staring at a certain place.
Jiaying walked out among the reeds.
He saw this group of strange-looking scorpion people. The monks' appearance after betraying their faith was disgusting. According to his current pure standards, they had committed a double sin. According to his style of doing things, they had to be converted directly.
Ye Xiaoman saw the murderous intent in Jiaying's eyes and thought to herself that this was not good. They were not close friends now. Would Jiaying just start fighting without caring about her life or death?
Yue Mushan immediately put aside his differences and asked Jiaying for help: "Master, please save Sister Yin."
Ye Xiaoman also looked at Jiaying eagerly.
Jiaying met Ye Xiaoman's pitiful look. The second in command moved the stinger on the scorpion's tail closer to Ye Xiaoman's carotid artery and shouted, "Surrender quickly, or I will kill her."
Jiaying lowered his eyes, actually gave up all resistance and surrendered.
The Scorpion men who were wandering in the outer circle rushed forward, tied up the three of them with the Immortal Binding Rope, and took them into the mountain stronghold.
Yue Mushan was ashamed: "I'm sorry, I shouldn't have suggested that my sister go ashore."
After Ye Xiaoman's hands were tied around her waist, she bumped his arm soothingly with her shoulder.
"It's okay. Whether we go ashore tonight or not, our ship is already close to their territory and will be attacked sooner or later."
Yue Mushan looked at Jiaying, who was walking ahead of them with an expressionless face, and said, "If only I could be stronger."
Ye Xiaoman is always ready to spread the warmth of a bad girl to the world, and to protect the depressed hearts of every boy. "You are still young, and you have this awareness. You just need to work hard in the future."
"What a loving couple." The scorpion's younger brother opened a corner of the detention circle and pushed them roughly into a mud pit.
"If you have any love words, hurry up and talk about them. After your last meal, you will become our boss's puppet."
The magic circle was like an upside-down bowl, covering her head. Ye Xiaoman felt like an ant trapped in a sealed lunch box, unable to get out no matter how hard she tried.
The mud pit was as big as a football field, and besides them, there were dozens of other prisoners.
The captives were sitting against the mud wall, covered in dust. In addition to the mutants that looked like neither human nor insect, there were also some normal people.
Ye Xiaoman and Yue Mushan found an empty corner and sat down, keeping a safe distance from everyone.
Ye Xiaoman took out a clean futon from her storage bag and placed it on the dirt floor. Knowing Jiaying was a germaphobe, she hugged his thigh very attentively, "Master, sit down."
Jiaying accepted her flattery and meditated silently.
He suffered because of them, but he never complained.
His snow-white clothes were in stark contrast to the filthy and messy surroundings. Sitting there, he looked like a hermit, and the captives all cast curious glances at him.
A shower of steamed buns fell above the pit.
The listless prisoners finally took action and rushed forward to grab the steamed buns.
Ye Xiaoman also wanted to get some food, but she was worried it might be poisonous.
While she was hesitating, a child's voice came, "Don't worry, sister, it's edible."
Ye Xiaoman looked up and saw a timid little girl standing diagonally in front of her. She had two pigtails, a dirty little face, and was wearing a lotus-colored dress made of cotton and linen that looked like it was made from a Taoist robe.
She lifted the hem of her clothes as a bag and wrapped a few steamed buns she had snatched. Ye Xiaoman looked at her, and to prove her words, she grabbed a steamed bun with her little hand, took a bite, and ate it.
