Chapter 209 Dragon's Tail
"And~~"
The dragon lay on the cliff more than ten meters high, roaring angryly at Xu Chen and others below, and his fist-sized eyes flashed with ferocious bloodthirsty light.
Facing such a terrifying monster, not only Xu Chen was almost scared, but even a group of hunters who were just excited about going to Rilong were all panicked again.
"Bow and arrow, shoot!"
The beast was in front of him, and Feng issued an attack order without hesitation.
Boom boom boom boom...
The archers who were ready to attack quickly and shot them into the dragon.
“And~~~”
With the roar, the dragon pounced down, and the long tail swept across the corner. A large number of broad-leaved plants in the valley broke and fell down one after another. Most of the arrows fell, but a few shots were still shot on the body, but it seemed that the damage was not high. Some were bounced away directly, and some shots in it, but the dragon's skin shook like a spasm and it fell down quickly.
Damn, this thing is invulnerable to swords and guns?
Such a terrifying situation instantly scared Xu Chen.
However, obviously a group of hunters were more experienced. While shouting and dodging around, another round of arrows shot out, and the prepared spearmen also threw their spears out one after another.
The wild beasts were fierce and the valleys were narrow. The defense and attack formations practiced on weekdays were no longer of great effect. A group of hunters could only scatter and fight on their own. However, their long-term hunting experience and habits did not completely panic, but quickly opened a certain attack distance around.
However, the terrain of the valley is indeed too complicated, and many locations cannot retreat at all. One step back is the boulders and the turbulent and narrow streams. The only advantage is the large number of people.
Therefore, under the continuous attacks of dozens of people, although the dragon beast was very resistant, it still suffered more than ten consecutive strokes. Short spears and bows pierced into the body. It was obvious that blood could be seen flowing out, and it was jumping and spilling everywhere as the dragon roared.
Xu Chen, Gu Ju and others were completely unable to participate in this fierce battle, and could only hide and retreat in the depths of the thick fog.
"Roll the horn!"
Although Xu Chen was unable to participate in the attack, he also knew that his reputation and courage were crucial, so he shouted and ordered Gu to blow the trumpet as soon as possible.
"Woooooooooooooo~~"
The horn horn sounded, and the thick and loud sounds surging in the tumbling fog of the valley, penetrated the canyon and soared into the sky.
The sound of the horn made the dragon beast temporarily stagnate, and instantly, seven or eight arrows and several short spears were hit by the body.
"And~~"
Under the dense attack, the dragon finally felt the threat of death. He let out an angry and shrill roar and then jumped high. He climbed the steep rock wall and quickly disappeared into the thick fog, leaving only the sound of stone chips falling all the way.
"Chasing!"
A group of hunters yelled excitedly and chased after him.
Killing and chasing is almost the most commonly used hunting method for hunters.
Unfortunately, in this foggy canyon, this method was completely useless. A group of people chased the valley for hundreds of meters and finally had no way to chase it. Xu Chen was also afraid that the situation would cause casualties and quickly asked Gu to sound the horn to stop the attack again.
Soon, the wind brought a large group of hunters back with annoyance on their faces.
The place where the battle just now was in chaos.
A large area of broad-leaved plants were broken and fell. Many people also splashed with many plants, splashing venom, and their skin was burning and numb. They grinned and rushed to the stream to rinse their bodies.
"Look for a way out of here!"
Although no casualties were caused, the group of people were still very embarrassed.
This is the old nest occupied by dragons, so it is obviously not suitable to stay for a long time.
If he was attacked until dark, he would be afraid of heavy casualties, so Xu Chen urged him to find a way out immediately.
Soon, someone discovered a place where he could climb up the mountain. A group of people did not dare to continue to stay in the valley. Instead, they adopted the same method. People with flexible bodies led the way, and then put down ropes along the way to help the people behind climb forward.
An hour later, a group of people climbed halfway up the mountain and the terrain gradually became smooth and wide.
At this time, the sun had already fallen to the distant mountains, leaving only a faint sunset.
The cold wind roars around the mountains and fields, and the forest waves roll like tides.
Standing on the mountainside, looking at the valley below, the cliff is steep and deep, and the clouds and mist are rolling like dragon abyss.
"And~~"
In the fog of the deep ravine, an angry roar came faintly.
"Go ahead, speed up and continue. Be sure to reach the top of the mountain before dark!"
Xu Chen was creepy and shouted to leave quickly.
Although the dragon beast is very different from the legendary dragon he is familiar with, it also has some similarities, that is, it looks strange and does not look like it, but in fact it has a little bit of the charm of a dragon.
The image of dragons has actually been changing in ancient times. I don’t know when the earliest dragon myth began, but it should have appeared in the middle and late Neolithic periods. It can be found from archaeology that the images of dragons in various cultural periods are different. They did not gradually take shape until the Qin and Han Dynasties, and eventually evolved into the five-clawed golden dragon totem dedicated to the emperor in the feudal period.
Xu Chen doesn't know whether the dragon beast he is currently encountering has something to do with the once-family dragon totem.
But after seeing it twice, he was convinced that the ancients should not have created something like dragons out of imagination. The blue dragon, white tiger, vermilion bird, black trunk are the four legendary beasts. The other three are all very normal shapes, but the dragon is unique, which is not logical.
The biggest possibility is that dragons should also be real creatures with very similar prototypes. Some say they are snakes, some say they are crocodiles, but in fact they are not similar.
Xu Chen felt that the beast he saw was the closest prototype creature.
Perhaps, this dragon is that dragon.
However, this kind of wild beast has few existences and has become extinct earlier. Coupled with the myth of imaginary transformation that has been continuously progressing in civilization, it has become more and more mysterious.
...
At what time is the cold star, the moon is crooked like a hook.
It is a location close to the ridge several miles away from the valley called Yinlong Gorge by Xu Chen.
In a natural cave that was leeing, a group of hunters were sleeping in their clothes.
Xu Chen lay among a group of snoring, grinding teeth and talking in his sleep, staring at the cold mountains outside the cave with his eyes wide open.
Although he was covered in animal skin, he was still cold and kept trembling.
Moreover, wild beasts roared everywhere, and the distance was like a voice competition, without stopping at all.
This primitive society is simply not a place for people to stay.
The Ba tribe doesn't feel it, but everything goes wrong as soon as they go out. They sleep in such barren mountains and ridges without any sense of security at all, and always feel like they are staring at by wild beasts...
There seemed to be something outside the cave.
But when he looked closely, there was nothing, a quiet group.
It seems that I have been too tired to travel overnight these two days, and I have hallucinations of being tired and hungry.
Xu Chen was about to close and forced himself to fall asleep, but he seemed to see a black shadow falling outside the hole with a hustle and big body. In the dark night, he looked like a super big gecko.
What?
Xu Chen rumbling in a creepy grunt, stared at him carefully again, then his hair stood up all over his body, and a loud roar came. In an instant, the hunters in the entire cave, who were snoring with their waists and legs, opened their eyes in panic.
"And~~"
The black shadow outside the cave let out a roar that broke the rocks.
"Longga~~~"
The hunters who were sleeping in a daze were finally completely dispelled by the roar. They roared in horror and jumped up with their bow and arrow spear looking for their own, and the entire cave was in panic.
"Bang bang bang bang bang bang..."
The hunter who got the bow and arrow began to shoot everywhere outside the cave indiscriminately. After a round of arrows, he found that the outside of the cave was empty and the dragon was gone.
The dragon comes and goes quickly, and disappears in a blink of an eye.
But everyone was shocked to death, and they all surrounded each other in horror, nervously staring at the dark hole with weapons.
More than ten minutes passed, and there was no sound outside except for the howling Ye Feng and Lin Tao.
Even the roars of wild beasts that kept coming from the surrounding mountains seemed to suddenly disappear without a trace.
"Xiga!"
Some people finally couldn't stand it, so they yawned and put down their weapons.
More people also put down their weapons, but they were still nervous when they looked left and right.
Xu Chen naturally became even more nervous.
If it weren't for him just now, it wouldn't be them who went to steal the tower this time, but they would be able to steal the tower successfully by this dragon.
Once you rush in, you will probably have more than half of your life and injuries, and it is very likely that the group will be destroyed.
He died before he could succeed, which made the hero cry.
His king's dominance has just shown signs of his brilliance, and he cannot die in this wilderness no matter what.
Therefore, Xu Chen and Feng exchanged a few words and asked him to arrange for someone to take turns to watch the situation carefully.
The main reason is that there is no convenient fire to carry at present. If a bonfire can be lit before falling asleep, it will definitely be a huge shock and intimidation for such creatures who are used to living by the water.
Unfortunately, no.
