Chapter 1147: An Unquiet Night

~8 min read 1,502 words

Someone in the team ran out and shouted at He Lingchuan: "Mr. He!"

Everyone looked, and it was actually Wang Gesheng!

This boy had several injuries on his body, and the bowstring behind his back was broken, but he was not missing any arms or legs.

He Lingchuan wondered: "Why did you enter the mountain too?"

"We chased the monster group that was making trouble, and killed all the way from the town to here. Besides the demon extermination team, the Monarch also sent General Long to lead nine thousand people to surround and block the White Bear King!" Wang Gesheng said excitedly. "That scene was spectacular! It's a pity you didn't see it."

"The army and the demon extermination team killed more than a thousand wolves and more than three hundred giant bears. The monster corpses and beast corpses were piled up like mountains behind the town!"

Hu Min interjected: "Nine thousand people, where did you mobilize so many people from?"

The Giant Deer Nation is a small country, and it is still fighting in the west. It is not easy to squeeze out nine thousand people in the country.

Wang Gesheng was stunned by the question: "This, I don't know, anyway, there are really so many people! Crowded, torches smoking the sky. The old soldiers all said that since the founding of Giant Deer, this is the first time there has been such a large-scale demon extermination action."

The Giant Deer King has courage, catching the opportunity of the White Bear King going down the mountain, and going all-in with the good cards in his hand. It seems that he is really determined to eradicate the White Bear King, this scourge.

"Then, what about the White Bear King?"

"This big demon is really powerful." Wang Gesheng still had lingering fears when he talked about it. "Just by itself, it killed more than three hundred people. Even two capable generals under General Long were beaten to death by it."

Menban interjected: "Killing the opponent's generals among nine thousand enemies?"

The only person he knew who was so brave was General Hong. And she had to lead the Great Wind Army to charge, one person couldn't do it.

"No, no, the White Bear King also understands the virtual and real of the military, while sending monster subordinates to impact the army, while playing hide-and-seek with General Long." Wang Gesheng said. "General Long is a general who accompanied the King to conquer the east and west, and he was calm in commanding on the battlefield, but he didn't expect it to escape."

"This bear king is quite cunning. Did it escape into the mountain?"

"General Long is also not sure, so he divided the army into several branches and searched all the way in." Wang Gesheng said. "The bear king is also seriously injured, so everyone is very motivated."

He pointed to the bow on his back, proudly: "The White Bear King's left eye was blinded by me!"

He Lingchuan was a bit surprised and gave him a thumbs up: "It didn't pounce on you?"

Bears are creatures that hold grudges.

Wang Gesheng scratched the back of his head, embarrassed: "It was separated from me by a mountain stream, and there were soldiers in front and behind, although it was furious, it couldn't come over."

Menban laughed and scolded: "Good boy. With this arrow merit, your position in the army will be stable from now on."

He Lingchuan nodded. At this time, he could see that Wang Gesheng knew how to judge the situation and grasp the opportunity better than the average teenager, no wonder he could open a sect in the future.

"The one who finally killed the White Bear King is the unparalleled merit."

After chatting for a while, the demon extermination team walked away.

Wang Gesheng was afraid of falling behind, so he hurriedly bid farewell to He Lingchuan and others and rushed forward.

He Lingchuan also continued on his way.

Along the way, they also met two other demon extermination teams, also with a configuration of three to five hundred people.

Facing the monster herd in Bai Mao Mountain, humans have to huddle together to come in.

There were occasional sounds of signal arrows and fireworks in the sky. That was the signal for demon exterminators to encounter difficult points and summon nearby teams to help.

He Lingchuan still remembered what Wang Gesheng said, that two red fireworks were the signal that the White Bear King had appeared!

Until dark, he didn't seem to have seen double red fireworks.

However, the fog was so thick, who knows if other teams in the distance had such honor?

Hu Min came back from scouting ahead and shook his head: "I don't know how far it is to leave the mountain, why don't we just make do for the night here?"

They were outsiders, and they were not familiar with this big mountain, so it was not suitable to continue on the road after nightfall, so as not to go around further and further.

Lu Laoliu was already too tired to walk, lying on the Panlong guard's back, and hurriedly raised his head when he heard the sound: "What? This is too dangerous!"

There are so many monsters in the mountain, how dare they spend the night here? Hu Min looked at the surrounding terrain and was too lazy to look at him more: "Or, you go out by yourself first?"

Lu Laoliu was resentful. This few thousand taels of silver is really not easy to earn, with his head tied to his belt.

There are many monsters in Bai Mao Mountain, and it is an extraordinary period now, so everyone felt that it was most stable not to light a fire, and it was best not to sleep on the ground.

So He Lingchuan and others chose a few giant cedars that towered into the clouds and suspended the hammocks under the thick branches.

The main trunks of this kind of cedar tree are straight up like pencils, nearly twenty-five *zhang* high, and they look like towers from a distance, even if they are in any forest, they look like a crane in a flock of chickens.

Since they were going to spend the night in the forest, He Lingchuan wanted to get a good view.

The hammocks they brought were made of spider silk from the underground, light but strong.

At this height, they could avoid interference from the ground, and even mosquitoes were almost extinct, but it was not friendly to acrophobia patients. Lu Laoliu only looked down once, and his face turned white.

The group sat on their respective hammocks, ate some dry food and water, and then practiced to adjust their breath, leaving only one person to stand guard.

The night grew deeper, and the fog dissipated at some point.

Not long after, there was a sudden explosion in the distance.

He Lingchuan opened his eyes, climbed to the top of the tree quickly, and stood high to look far away.

Looking down from this height, the top of the forest in the night was like an ocean of thick ink, with thousands of tree crowns swaying with the wind, undulating like waves.

This is the origin of the sea of trees.

Ordinary people rarely see such scenery in their lifetime.

He Lingchuan could even see a white practice hanging down from a mountain head not far away.

That should be a waterfall.

However, bright fireworks rose in this ocean of forest.

Two fiery red fireworks! The person setting off the fireworks was probably afraid that other teams wouldn't see them, so he set off two more *peng peng*.

He Lingchuan and the Panlong guards were all moved. According to Wang Gesheng's statement, this is someone discovering the White Bear King and summoning other teams to help quickly!

Was the White Bear King finally caught up with? What kind of encirclement and slaughter was hidden under this sea of trees?

The evening wind blowing on his face seemed to be filled with blood and coldness.

Not long after, red fireworks were released on the ground, but the position changed.

It can be seen that the battlefield is also moving. I don't know if the army is chasing the White Bear King, or the White Bear King is chasing humans? Such fireworks were set off five times within two hours, and the position kept changing.

Hu Min silently recorded these changes and said to He Lingchuan: "It seems to be coming toward us."

He Lingchuan's proposition was only four words: Stand still.

Their mission is to retrieve and escort the Bright Lamp, not to kill the bear.

The White Bear King is not their trouble.

They spent the night on the top of the giant cedar, so far from the ground, the big demon being chased wouldn't have nothing to do and climb the tree to find people to play with.
