C48 Drawing a Knife to Cut off Water



C48 Drawing a Knife to Cut off Water

The young woman was so scared she really stopped crying.    

    

She covered her face and looked at Xiao Yun with fear.    

    

Even the guards and followers beside her were all frozen like cicadas in winter. They stood there in a daze, not daring to move at all.    

    

Leng Ningshuang was also shocked. She hurriedly walked over and asked, "Why did you hit her? She is not a bad person. He is the young lady of Wu family and has a good relationship with your Xiao family."    

    

Xiao Yun took a deep breath and calmed himself down. After that, he said, "I hit it for that horse."    

    

"Horse? The horse that I knocked into just now?"    

    

"An animal like a horse is actually very stupid. It often makes mistakes. When in danger, it doesn't know what to do. It only knows how to escape. As for the horses, they originally lived on a flat grassland. Naturally, the faster they run, the faster they run. However, this was a dense forest. If they ran fast, they would end up bumping themselves to death like they were now. This wasn't its fault, it was its master's fault. Or rather, he brought his horse into the dense forest and didn't take care of it carefully. This in itself is a mistake"    

    

"You... You hit me for a horse? "    

    

"What? Can't I?"    

    

Xiao Yun turned his head around when he saw the girl from the Wu family speaking. He spoke in a cold voice.    

    

Those who heard him were shocked, as if they had fallen into an ice cave.    

    

The girl from the Wu family quickly covered her mouth, not daring to make a sound.    

    

She suddenly realized, or rather, she felt that this seemingly gentle man in front of her was even more terrifying than the beast tide!    

    

Xiao Yun took a deep breath and asked, "What is the beast tide you are talking about?"    

    

Before they could answer, Xiao Yun already knew.    

    

Because the ground was moving!    

    

Earthquake?!    

    

Or was it a wild beast howling over, causing the ground to tremble?    

    

No!    

    

Something was not right!    

    

If what these people said was true, then the appearance of the so-called beast tide must have been caused by some external cause, causing the animals in the forest to run in panic in one direction.    

    

They did not seem like horses that did not take advantage of the terrain.    

    

They were all fellows born and raised in the forest. Even if they fled frantically, it would be very difficult for them to be trapped by the terrain.    

    

Of course, this was not important!    

    

What was important was the inducement.    

    

What exactly was the reason why they were able to launch such a surprise attack and form a beast tide?    

    

An earthquake... was the most likely situation!    

    

Fragrant Mountain, the forbidden land of the royal family, the Osmanthus Flower, and the dried up Ancient River to form a plain...    

    

When he thought of this, Xiao Yun's expression instantly turned ugly!    

    

If the mountains and rivers did not change, it would be very difficult for a large river to completely dry up and withdraw from the stage of history. Currently, the mountain forest was still there, and the rain was still abundant...    

    

This meant that Gu He's broken flow was because of the change in the terrain. Furthermore, it was a huge change!    

    

And whenever such a change occurred, it would usually be in an area with unusual movements in the earth's crust.    

    

He hurriedly turned around and asked, "Is there a hot spring in this Fragrant Mountain?"    

    

Shangguan Qing'er did not know why he asked this but she still replied, "Of course there is. To the north of Fragrant Mountain, there is the most famous hot spring in Qin Country. The officials and nobles often go there during winter."    

    

"This..."    

    

Xiao Yun's eyes twitched a few times and said in a deep voice, "This kind of thing... This young master actually did not know before! Damn it!"    

    

Shangguan Qing'er was puzzled and said, "Young Master Yun, you have also been there before."    

    

" Oh... I forgot. "    

    

Xiao Yun did not have the time to explain all of this.    

    

Hot springs were formed by geothermal energy.    

    

And geothermal energy often represented volcanoes.    

    

Even if there were no volcanoes, it proved that the crust here was weak.    

    

Earthquakes were naturally also possible.    

    

However, he could not believe that his luck was a little too bad. The first time he came out of the capital, he encountered an earthquake?    

    

And this place was so close to Beijing...    

    

Wait!    

    

Thinking of the earthquake, Xiao Yun immediately thought of the locust plague!    

    

The natural disasters did not separate!    

    

What caused it? There were different opinions.    

    

Each had their own reasons.    

    

Metaphysics said that after the earthquake, the Underworld revealed the ground, Hell opened up the entrance to the human world, and all kinds of evil swarmed out, often accompanied by all kinds of calamities.    

    

Scientifically speaking, when the earth's crust underwent a huge change, it would always expose certain viruses and poisonous substances that were buried deep underground. Especially when the earth's crust underwent a change, the temperature of the region would always change. And these changes will cause the originally balanced nature to become imbalanced.    

    

Thus, a series of distortions would occur.    

    

Which one was the real one?    

    

Xiao Yun was too lazy to study it.    

    

He only needed to remember that this kind of thing was often related.    

    

An earthquake accompanied by a locust plague was no longer anything new.    

    

Perhaps the appearance of the eggs itself was a sign of an earthquake!    

    

If they complemented each other, it was hard to say who caused it to happen.    

    

However, an earthquake was too dangerous!    

    

Xiao Yun immediately said, "Let's go out now and follow the original path."    

    

Leng Ningshuang said, "But about the spring hunting..."    

    

"Why should we care about the spring hunting? Right now... our lives are more important!"    

    

Xiao Yun was not afraid of anything, that was just a saying.    

    

He was not afraid of people, but of the sky and the earth. In an instant, he could not resist the power!    

    

But... it was still too late.    

    

Without any warning, the sudden earthquake, the speed of destruction, was something that humans could not avoid.    

    

Especially... the beast tide!    

    

With a rumbling sound, the depths of the forest was filled with smoke.    

    

With just a clear look, there were wild beasts of all sizes, regardless of species, madly rushing towards their direction!    

    

One! He quivered and rushed from Xiao Yun's heel to the top of his head.    

    

The first thing he thought of was to immediately jump onto the thickest tree next to him. On the crown of the tree, he would let it sway and stay as still as a mountain!    

    

But in the next moment, he turned around and roared, "Qing'er, stand behind me, and all of you, stand behind me as much as possible! Arrange in a fan shape, do not exceed the range of my hands!"    

    

As he spoke, he stretched out his hands like a hug.    

    

Everyone did not know what was going on, but in their panic and fear, they all followed Xiao Yun's instructions.    

    

However, the range that Xiao Yun gave them was too small.    

    

They were not willing to be too far away from Xiao Yun.    

    

After being separated by two or three people, the line of people was a little bloated.    

    

Xiao Yun shouted sternly, "Gather in the middle! Don't go beyond this range!"    

    

But everyone was competing with each other, squeezing and squeezing. There was no way to arrange a formation that Xiao Yun was satisfied with at the first moment.    

    

And he did not have time to adjust in order.    

    

The beast tide had arrived!    

    

Xiao Yun suddenly turned around, waved his arms, and two blades shot out from his wrists!    

    

The ropes tied him up, and the blades danced like the wind.    

    

Ceng! Ceng!    

    

He drew two deep pits on the ground.    

    

After that, Xiao Yun took a deep breath and closed his eyes, his mind clear.    

    

He let out a fierce roar!    

    

Tiger roar in the forest, Soaring Dragon Nine States!    

    

"Roar!!"    

    

In one breath, his throat was practically torn apart.    

    

In the end, it became sharp.    

    

It rose in succession and reached a certain level. Suddenly... it became quiet!    

    

Xiao Yun was clearly shouting with all his might, but no one could hear him at all.    

    

However, just because humans could not hear him did not mean that the wild beasts could not hear him.    

    

Bang!    

    

The wild beast at the front suddenly turned around and avoided Xiao Yun. It moved to the side along the gully he drew.    

    

Because of the sudden change in direction, it lost its balance and fell to the side. It was trampled by the beast behind it. It rolled a few times in the chaos. Obviously, it could not live anymore.    

    

After Xiao Yun finished his long roar, he waved his two blades crazily and continued to draw deeper into the gully.    

    

He gritted his teeth and did not think about anything else.    

    

Those wild beasts actually spread out in front of him, making way for him.    

    

Like a torrent, a wooden board was suddenly inserted in the middle and the flow of water immediately split apart.    

    

But the split in the torrent would always be temporary.    

    

Then, they gathered in the middle and continued to charge forward.    

    

The people who had been fighting for positions behind Xiao Yun, or rather, the ones who had failed, had their bodies hit by the wild beasts. They were instantly dragged into the current and were instantly drowned, disappearing without a trace.    

    

Perhaps they had been taken away, or perhaps they had been trampled on, and their corpses had disappeared without a trace.    

    

Rumble!    

    

The beast brought along a loud sound, thick smoke.    

    

The people behind Xiao Yun were so scared that they did not know what to do. They could only helplessly cover their ears and close their eyes. They squatted there, waiting for life or death.    

    

This process lasted for a quarter of an hour!
