(The third update is here today, please vote, collect and click~~~)
Zhao Tianyang, Jiang Fang, Sun Yaojie and others discussed together and finally selected some people to take turns to stand guard. If something happened, they could wake everyone up just in case.
The horns of more than fifty stone-clawed beasts were dug out individually and placed aside for safekeeping, because everyone remembered that the ticket to the next unknown station written on the station bulletin board was "Stone Claw Beast".
"Horn of the Clawed Beast", so everyone did not dare to be careless and were prepared for any danger.
In addition, Sun Yaojie also mentioned that Lin Xiao got a thick wooden stick that was very effective against stone-clawed beasts. Zhao Tianyang and others were all impressed and thought that this method was feasible. If someone had a thick wooden stick, they could use it to deal with it.
The stoneclaw beast must be easier and it will reduce a lot of casualties.
But now it is getting late and everyone is very sleepy, so we can only leave everything to tomorrow.
Lin Xiao's heart was up and down, thinking about the condition of his body, and then thinking about his current situation. Where is this so-called "poisonous fog swamp"? And what about the elusive ghost train? What is its origin?
Lin Xiao thought about many possibilities, and even thought that this might be a place set up by some secret forces in the country to play a real killing game or survival game for the entertainment of some powerful people?
However, he soon denied this possibility to himself.
Or is it really like what is written in some movies or novels, that you and others have actually traveled through time? However, even if you have traveled through time, you should not be in this situation, and there seems to be some kind of arrangement, and there are people who care about it.
What guides them?
None of this can be explained by common sense.
There are so many things that I can't figure out.
Lin Xiao was lying next to the fire, his heart was up and down, and he thought for a long time. Many people around him had fallen asleep, snoring everywhere. Among them, Fang Zhirong's snoring was the most amazing. It was simply unique and stood out from the crowd, making many people who were originally sleeping
Everyone around him was woken up and moved away from him one after another.
In the end, a strange situation formed. There was no one else within a radius of about ten meters where Fang Zhirong slept.
Lin Xiao looked at this interesting scene and felt better. Seeing Wen Ningxuan next to her still holding a book and reading, she couldn't help but shook her head and said softly: "Wen Ningxuan, are you still reading? Go to bed early.
Keep your spirits up, we don’t know what the situation will be like tomorrow.”
When Wen Ningxuan heard his voice, she came back to her senses, tilted her head slightly, and smiled at him. Her smile was beautiful in the light of the fire.
Lin Xiao was slightly startled. Wen Ningxuan had already closed the book, folded the page she saw, made a mark, and then carefully put it into her backpack. Then she said softly: "I understand.
you should go to bed soon too."
Then he curled up and lay down less than one meter away from Lin Xiao.
The two of them were leaning towards each other, and their eyes met. They saw that the distance between them was less than one meter, and a slight blush appeared on Wen Ningxuan's flawless face.
Lin Xiao smiled slightly, his heart was ups and downs, but now he suddenly became peaceful, and then he closed his eyes.
Lin Xiao was so tired that as soon as he closed his eyes, he fell asleep immediately.
After he fell asleep, in a daze, he vaguely seemed to hear something trying to contact him, and a voice calling him.
"Who...who is calling me..." In the dream, Lin Xiao made a vague sound. He vaguely felt like there was a shadow in front of his eyes, but he couldn't see anything clearly. This feeling was exactly the same as in daily dreams, but it made him
What felt strange was that there seemed to be a certain part of consciousness in his mind that was very awake and telling him that this was not a dream.
This feeling did not last long, and he was awakened by a scream.
"Everyone, wake up, there's a stoneclaw beast——"
The few people on guard screamed hoarsely, which seemed particularly sad in the night.
Lin Xiao shivered smartly and suddenly woke up completely. He immediately turned over and climbed up. With the help of the weak light left by the fire, he saw a group of shaking black figures in the distance, approaching them quickly.
With.
Stone-clawed beasts, and a group of stone-clawed beasts. At a glance, there are at least forty or fifty in number.
As the sentry screamed repeatedly, everyone in their sleep was awakened one after another.
"Wen Ningxuan, get up quickly, there is a stone-clawed beast." Lin Xiao shouted, grabbed the short knife on his body and pulled it out, while pushing Wen Ningxuan beside him.
Wen Ningxuan also woke up. After hearing Lin Xiao's words, her beautiful eyes suddenly widened. She hurriedly climbed up, put her backpack on her body, and took out her short knife at the same time.
"Don't panic, we can still handle the forty or fifty stone-clawed beasts. You stay here and don't run around." Lin Xiao confessed and rushed towards the front of the team.
Forty or fifty stone-clawed beasts appeared from the other side of the oncoming stream and approached them quickly. Everyone woke up one after another. Most of them felt very panicked, but under Zhao Tianyang's repeated shouts, they managed to stabilize themselves.
, and there was no large number of people breaking up and fleeing.
The seven teams that originally returned had a total of more than 150 people who had participated in battles with stoneclaw beasts during the day. They understood that in the current situation, they could only save themselves and their lives by fighting to the death.
The lives of relatives and friends were threatened, so there was almost no need to summon them. One after another, young and middle-aged people holding short swords gathered at the stream.
Together with other people who took the initiative to participate, more than 200 people soon gathered by the stream to form a defense line.
The remaining few hundred people, most of whom were old, weak, women and children, were panicked, but because there were two hundred people in front of them who had formed a defensive line to block the front, they all felt at ease and stopped, holding on to their daggers.
There were also many mothers who held their children tightly in their arms and looked nervously at the stone-clawed beasts that were approaching in the distance.
With the help of the remaining firelight from the fires and the faint starlight in the sky, Lin Xiao saw the approaching stone-clawed beasts, the number of which should be around forty or fifty.
Although there are many of them, there are also quite a few of them, and almost all of them are people with some experience who have experienced daytime battles. In addition, the shapes of these stone claw beasts are ordinary stone claw beasts, and there are no more terrifying giant stone claws among them.
beast.
Looking at the stone-clawed beasts that had rushed to the stream, Lin Xiao took a deep breath and grasped the short knife tightly with his right hand. He understood that although these stone-clawed beasts would cause them some casualties, they would not be able to break through the two hundred or so of them.
The defense line formed by them will eventually be destroyed by them, not to mention the old, weak, women and children behind who don't have much ability to protect themselves.
"howl--"
These forty or fifty stone-clawed beasts were very fast, and with terrifying roars, they threw themselves into the stream, splashing water everywhere, and with a splashing sound, they crossed the five to six meter wide stream in the blink of an eye.
Rushing towards the crowd.
These stone-clawed beasts are all desperate monsters. They don't even consider the difference in numbers or strength between the two sides. I am afraid that even one stone-clawed beast would dare to charge up alone after seeing hundreds of them.
Judging from the habits of such unusual beasts, these stone-clawed beasts are indeed more like monsters.
With a "chi" sound, a stone-clawed beast rushed up and bit a person's chest viciously. The person took half a step back. There were two people on each side who rushed forward. The dagger in their hands immediately pierced into this person.
In the body of Stoneclaw Beast.
"howl--"
The stone-clawed beast roared, twisted its body, and struck one of them with its tail, leaving blood marks on the man's body. However, the man was not afraid at all and did not give in. He grabbed the dagger with both hands and pulled it back.
With a "chi" sound, a wound that was more than a foot long was suddenly cut on the body of the stone-clawed beast.
The moment the two sides came into contact, six people were immediately injured, and three stoneclaw beasts were seriously injured.
In terms of individual strength, they are indeed inferior to these stone-clawed beasts, but everyone does not flinch at all, because they all understand that they cannot retreat. Among the people they protect behind are their parents, children, and lovers...
In order to protect their loved ones, these people actually showed courage and strength that they had never shown during the daytime battle. Even if forty or fifty stone-clawed beasts rushed up crazily, they could not disperse them.
Team.
"Ah -" one of them let out a scream, and was bitten in the throat by a stone-clawed beast. He saw that he would not survive. But before he died, he was not afraid of fear, but angry and desperate.
He grabbed the stone-clawed beast desperately, dragged the stone-clawed beast with his own body, and let others rush forward, finally killing the stone-clawed beast...
This scene shocked many people behind. They simply couldn't believe their eyes.
"Damn monsters, we humans are not easy to mess with, bah--" Zhao Tianyang laughed wildly. This middle-aged man with a fierce appearance was actually more agile than an ordinary young man, and he suddenly dragged a stone-clawed beast away.
He pulled his tail back with all his strength, forcing the stone-clawed beast to stop. When he turned around and wanted to attack him, someone else had already rushed towards him. With the short knife in his hand, he was furiously pointing at the stone-clawed beast.
The beast stabbed down.
Although the number of casualties among the crowd was greater than that of the stone-clawed beasts, they still had an overwhelming numerical advantage. In the blink of an eye, more than a dozen stone-clawed beasts were eliminated. As they watched the crowd slowly gain the upper hand, suddenly,
From behind, there was a cry of surprise, followed by several screams.
The people who were fighting desperately with the group of stone-clawed beasts by the stream in front suddenly heard the sound, and they were all slightly confused. Lin Xiao quickly turned his head and was shocked to find that someone had quietly appeared from behind the people at some point.
There were forty or fifty stone-clawed beasts. These stone-clawed beasts groped their way to the old, weak, women and children in the rear, and suddenly launched an attack.
