Chapter 37: The Powerful Fellow Lei Daoist
The scorching sun is in the sky.
Two figures with fluttering clothes sailed across the sky in a flying boat.
Below the two, a dilapidated village stood among the vast yellow sand. The wheat fields around the village were harvested, leaving only neat wheat stubble.
The children playing in the hollowed-out area of the village saw two immortals passing by in the air, and raised their little heads in excitement, and their eyes followed the immortals' figure until they turned into unrecognizable small black dots.
These two people are naturally Lei Wen and Zong Hong.
"…The location of each village in the 'Huangsha Realm' is close to the spiritual vein, and you can obtain the wood spirit and water spirit energy transmitted by the 'Prayer Hall' to maintain the farmland.
"There are hard rocks several feet deep underground, and the desert monsters cannot penetrate into the village from the underground..."
While flying, Zong Hong told why the mortal village could last for a long time in the endless sea of sand.
"In addition, all villages have built facilities to deal with monster raids, such as tunnels, pits, etc., and have reserved weapons such as swords, guns, swords, and crossbows, or some drugs that monsters hate.
"In most cases, if level 1 or 2 monsters break into the village, mortal warriors have a way to drive away monsters or even kill less powerful level 1 monsters, although casualties will inevitably occur..."
Lei Wen nodded secretly when he heard this.
What Zong Hong said is very logical.
If all people do not have the ability to deal with monsters, they may have been destroyed by monsters a hundred times by villages located in the desert or villages near the edge of the desert. How could they have reproduced from generation to generation?
Lei Wen looked down at the sand dunes that seemed to be endless and smiled and made a suggestion: "Fellow Daoist Zong, since the sand crabs are hiding under the sand layer and dare not come out, why not let us take the initiative to look for them and clear them out. How about it?"
Zong Hong nodded excitedly: "I have heard from fellow Taoist Zhuo mention that fellow Taoist Lei has an extremely powerful secret technique of tracking, and this time I will see it!"
Lei Wen smiled slightly: "It's just a trick!"
He put away the flying boat and landed gracefully on the top of a large sand dune like a fallen leaf. He first summoned the magic weapon, and then used the [Wu Ji Spirit Testing Technique] to sense the "slit" in the earth spirit energy.
Compared with the "Ten Z" at the beginning, his secret technique has made great progress now and he can sense the situation thirty meters away.
Zong Hong stood quietly in the air holding a sharp golden spear, observing the surrounding ground vigilantly, like a loyal guard.
"No abnormality yet!"
Lei Wen shook his head, and his body rose into the air and flew to the next location.
For Zong Hong, he had seen this scene when he escorted the mortals in Shashi Village last time.
It was only last time that he didn't understand the meaning, but this time he saw some tricks.
Lei Wenfei stopped and searched for about a moment, and finally found out.
"Fellow Taoist Sect, there should be a level 1 monster nearby, be careful!" He turned his head and reminded him.
Now that I have a deeper understanding of the "crack", I can roughly distinguish between level 1 monsters and level 2 monsters.
"I understand!" Zong Hong nodded nervously.
Lei Wen took the lead and followed the "crack" to track the monsters under the sand layer.
The so-called period of sand crab restlessness does not mean that sand crabs become fools, will recklessly drill out of sand and move around the surface.
On the contrary, most of the time, they always move under the sand layer and will only break away from the sand layer when they attack.
Because of this, hunting sand crabs is not easy.
Every year, some unlucky monks are punished by the sand crab.
Seeing that the edge of the "crack" became clearer, Lei Wen's flight speed in the air gradually slowed down.
He pushed the Xuan Armored Golden Shield under his feet and inputted a magic power to double it to block his whole body.
"Bang!"
A certain location in the sand layer suddenly exploded, and sand particles flew everywhere. Several sand cones were hidden in it, flying towards Lei Wen.
This is the Sand Cone Technique.
In the dense sand and dust, two gray-white objects appeared and their surface texture was very similar to sand, which was almost difficult to distinguish with the naked eye, but they could not hide the spiritual consciousness of the monk.
It is conceivable that if the prey is hit by a sand cone and falls down, it will definitely be attacked without mercy.
These two clues have made Lei Civilization more intelligent, and this monster must be a sand crab.
The grayish-white thing must be the two giant clamps that the sand crab is ready to go.
At this moment, the Xuan Armor Golden Shield instantly increased to its limit, blocking the sand cone.
"Do!Do!Do!"
A series of explosions vibrated all over the world, and the shield remained motionless, easily blocking the attack of the sand cone.
Lei Wen held the spiritual sand ring, and his heart moved. Three sand rings condensed, instantly trapping the sand crab lurking in the sand.
"Jiji!"
The sand crab screamed in panic and danced with two crab claws, but it could not get rid of the hard sand ring.
"Swoosh!"
A black shadow fell from the sky like a long rainbow, breaking through the sand crab shell like a broken bamboo, piercing its back.
The biggest difference between level 1 monsters and level 2 monsters is that the latter masters the "Sand Armor Technique", which can condense sand into armor, has extremely strong defense, and can't hit them at all.
At this time, Zong Hong's sharp golden spear flew over, poked the sand crab shell, and made a "clang" sound, and half of the gun body instantly penetrated it.
After suffering two severe injuries, the vitality of the sand crabs quickly disappeared. They were dying in just over ten breaths, and a pair of crab claws hung down weakly.
Zong Hong slowly approached, pinched the magic tricks with his hands, and used a [Wind Technique]. The strong wind roared past and swept away the sand layer covering the surface of the sand crab's body, allowing Lei Wen to witness the true appearance of this monster for the first time.
Its body is flat, the carapace on its back is more than one meter wide, and there are five pairs of short arthropods arranged beside it. A pair of giant clamps are particularly long, and a cold glow is flashing in the jaws.
You can tell at a glance that if an ordinary monk was greeted by a big plier, his whole person would be dismembered into two pieces.
Zong Hong looked at Lei Wen again and said sincerely: "I only know that my friend is capable today, Zong is far from enough!"
When he killed the Black Rock Nematode that day, he thought Lei Wen was just relying on the benefits of his magic weapon.
But just now, when the sand crab was facing, the two of them heard the sound at the same time, and Lei Wen reacted faster. He directly killed the sand crab with an attack. The sharp golden spear hit the sand crab, and it was not even a final blow. At best, it could only be considered a whip of the corpse.
Seeing the big picture from the small, Zong Hong deeply understood that there was an essential gap between himself and fellow Daoist Lei, whether it was fighting consciousness or skills.
If the two fight in life and death, he will not have the confidence to survive the three breaths.
"Fellow Taoist is too good!" Lei Wen said with a smile and modestly, and pointed to the corpse of the sand crab, "This sand crab should be used as a fellow Taoist to hand over to the Taoist palace."
Zong Hong hesitated for a moment and stepped forward to put away the body.
He knew that with the powerful combat power shown by his colleagues, hunting sand crabs was not difficult at all, so there was no need to be polite.
The next series of hunting actions confirmed Zong Hong's point of view.
The two searched in the long yellow sand for nearly four hours. He saw with his own eyes that this fellow Daoist Lei killed seven sand crabs without stopping.
Adding the first one, the total number reaches as many as eight.
This amazing number far exceeds all the sand crabs that Zong Hong has killed so far.
When the stars appeared and disappeared, the two of them returned to the Sandun County Courtyard.
As soon as he entered the door, Lei Wen heard the amazement of the "Dao Miao" and the proud voice of Bian Han.
"...This level 1 monster is raging everywhere in Xiayan Village, slaughtering innocent mortals... This immortal is like a divine weapon falling from the sky, suddenly appears in front of this wolf, uses magic weapons to easily kill the sand crab, and saves the people in the village..."
Lei Wen couldn't help but frown.
He strongly suspected that with Bian Han's urinary nature as a mortal, he might have used mortals as bait, and deliberately watched the sand crab break into the village and then killed the sand crab.
Unfortunately, he couldn't come up with evidence and was difficult to refute the other party.
