Chapter 821: Shore and Ship
The beastmaster warship slowly sailed into the port, and stepped on the city of Wave City and was covered with all the streets.
The docks, the city walls, the wilderness were filled with curious people. The soldiers in talisman armor tried to stop the crowd from approaching the shore, and soon gave up their futile efforts. They had to ensure their safety and confronting too many viewers would only let them fall into the water.
The residents of Talang City are by no means simple people. The things that can make them temporarily forget that the battle is in full swing will naturally not be simple. They are not flying warships, nor are they hundreds of demons on the ship, but those rare strange beasts and spirit beasts.
The huge lion and tiger, the glowing deer and sheep, the rare bird with strange feathers, the elusive sea beast... Each strange beast is a legend. It has been passed down by word of mouth among fishermen, farmers, and hunters for thousands of years. Most people can't see one in their lifetime, but the beast master brought more than 300 at once.
The number of strange beasts is rare, usually far away from humans and demons, and only maintains loose connections and basic trust between each other. Therefore, the one who can find and summon strange beasts is usually another strange beast. The little girl in Xiaohao's hand is the beginning of catching strange beasts. With it, many strange beasts voluntarily established a spirit relationship with the beast master, and only a few strange beasts made fierce resistance.
Most of the strange beasts are shy and alert and do not like crowds, so they all hide in the large cabins blessed by spells. Occasionally, they always cause bursts of exclamations.
In addition to more than 300 strange beasts, there were more than 400 spirit beasts on the ship. When each family retreated, they could not take away all their belongings. Some of them were not so rare and precious spirit beasts were left in their hometowns. They were not afraid of people, and some of them loved to show off. They went into the sky and the sea around the warships, attracting a lot of attention.
The cheers came one after another until someone pointed out an obvious fact that many people automatically ignored.
"Is there so many demon races on the ship trustworthy? Will these wild beasts turn to attack us humans?"
The doubts are not loud, but they spread quickly, just like a poisonous snake in the sound wave, moving forward in a tortuous way. Wherever they pass, people's hearts suddenly change.
Talang City had just experienced a tragic battle. Although the initiator was a half-demon, the demon races were fighting directly with humans, and the cheers gradually weakened. Even the black dragon that appeared and disappeared suddenly after a moment could not make the audience's eyes shine, but caused a panic: If this dragon suddenly attacks Talang City, can humans stop it?
The crowd began to retreat, and the soldiers of the Xuanfu Army who stepped on the Lang Kingdom became the target of accusation.
"Why should we let the demon ship enter the port?"
"Aren't they here to save the demon captives, are they?"
"Don't let them dock."
...
The soldiers who were still watching leisurely just now raised their swords and guns in their hands, waiting for their boss' orders, were worried and their eyes turned, looking for traces of talisman masters and casual cultivators everywhere. Without magic to help them, they didn't know how to deal with a group of huge powerful enemies.
The beastmaster warship did not dock and stopped when it was three miles away from the dock. The warships in the Land Kingdom were kept far away and quietly prepared for battle.
The casual cultivator flew in the air. The talisman master hurriedly stood... No one could tell the reason, and the reinforcements from afar suddenly became very suspicious.
The people on the shore were watching the beastmaster on the ship, and the beastmaster on the ship was also checking the humans on the shore.
The only one on the entire ship was Yin Buchen, who was not a beast-raising master. He put his arms on the side of the ship and sighed long. This was a new habit he had developed in the past half month. He sighed anytime and anywhere, as if he had a serious concern, but Xiao Hao always said that he had a terminal illness and his life was not long.
"Look, this is the humans and the demon race. They hate each other and guard against each other. The only change in the past 100,000 years is that the hatred is getting deeper and deeper. The Spirit King wants to convince these people to attack Wangshan together. I am afraid there is not much hope."
The beastmasters on the boat were also looking at the city of Waves. When the humans on the shore were nervous, they became nervous and established contact with their beast-refining objects just in case.
Xiao Hao was the only person who was not interested in the whole situation. He sat on the wooden barrel beside Yin Buchen. He turned his back to the dock and carefully cleaned the back of Youliao with a small brush. Youliao couldn't say whether it was enjoyment or helplessness, and his head, feet, and limbs were all drooping weakly.
"Who said that the Ling King wanted to persuade the Talang Kingdom to attack Wangshan together?" Xiao Haotou said without raising his head.
"Is there anything wrong with this? The Spirit King wants to declare war on the demons, and of course he has to unite all his strength. Does this just rely on these hundreds of beast masters to fight to Wangshan?" Yin Buchen shook his head, laughed twice, and then sighed again. Even if Mu Xingqiu could assemble a million troops, he would not feel safe.
"That's not sure. It's impossible to win by fighting the demons with conventional means..."
"Yes, this is what I want to say. We should explain this truth to the Ling King clearly, and..." Yin Buchen turned his head and winked at Xiao Hao, saying that everyone tacitly understood who he was talking about.
Xiao Hao didn't look at him at all, shook his calves and continued, "It's never possible to be prepared for fighting: if the demons have the advantage, we have to strengthen our strength. When we finally have the advantage, the demons will find ways to strengthen their strength, and chase each other, there is no end."
"Then you have to prepare and chase after you." Yin Buchen's voice trembled.
"Haha, what are you afraid of? There is no road ahead. If you walk forward, the people behind you will follow your footprints. As there are more people following, the road will become. There is a road behind you, and going forward will be just the direction." Xiao Hao laughed, "Does my words look like Zuo Liuying?"
Yin Buchen opened his mouth. He didn't care about any roads. After a while, he asked in a low voice: "What did the Ling King... think?"
"This is when you do it instead of thinking." Xiao Hao grinned, very happy to imitate Zuo Liuying's words.
Yin Buchen became more and more confused as he listened. A loud noise suddenly came from not far away. Yin Buchen was shocked and hurriedly shrank his head, then he leaned his head little by little to watch.
Other beast masters have seen what happened. Yang Qingyin is not there, Gan Zhiquan is in charge of the warship and snorted, "Tailang Country is really hospitality, and we are asking us to withdraw from the port thirty miles away."
"King Ling wants us to wait for her in the port." said his younger brother Gan Zhiwei.
"Of course you have to execute the orders of the Spirit King, Feifei, use your strange beast to give Talang Kingdom an answer."
"Yes." Feifei seemed very nervous, but he was not confused when executing the order. His beast-refining object was Xuanwu Deshi, and he was not around him at all, but stayed dozens or even hundreds of miles away.
At least fifty miles away, a low cry of a dragon, a whale or a whale came. A wave of more than a hundred feet high soared into the sky. All the residents of the wave country could see it, and they watched the waves surge towards the port.
The talisman masters immediately sacrificed the talismans and dissolved the waves thirty miles away. This was not a particularly powerful attack, but for residents who did not understand magic, it was in a turmoil.
Yin Buchen sneered a few times, "Okay, I can't count on the country of tide. It would be nice if they don't regard the beast master as their opponents. The eight hundred beast masters fight alone in the demon clan and the country of sacrificing their own lives, which is worth writing a long poem."
"Can you write?" Xiao Hao's eyes lit up.
"I...hehe..." Yin Buchen thought, "I can run away." After thinking about it, he decided not to tell the truth. "Look, the demon clan has not appeared yet. There are already demons dancing in this world. The country of sacrificial life is a demon, the country of trampling on the waves, the Holy Talisman Dynasty is a demon, and even the beast master of the Spirit King is a demon."
"Where did this start?" Xiao Hao was a little surprised, feeling that Yin Buchen had snatched her words, although she didn't understand what this sentence meant.
Mu Xingqiu and Yang Qingyin were neither there. After a period of time, they found that Xiao Hao was not so cruel and ruthless. Yin Buchen had a lot of courage and whispered: "For us poor people who just want to survive, demons are killing. Now, anyone with some ability in this world will have to kill for a large number of people, with different purposes and methods, but in our eyes, it is the same as the demon clan. Killing, killing, killing, killing, killing, killing, killing, and killing... When all humans and demon clans die, the Taoist dynasty will come out, so the two demons will decide the outcome."
Xiao Hao found out that he was actually a little moved and murmured: "The demons danced around, and the beast master was also a demon... It's interesting. What would Zuo Liuying say at this time?"
Yin Buchen didn't care about Zuo Liuying, "There are not many people in this world who deserve to be favored by the Spirit King, but I also have my own principles. If I leave the Land Kingdom, the Spirit King will still have this boat and seven or eight hundred beast masters. I... I have to say goodbye. I am just a little bug. When the demons dance, there is no room for me to survive. I should hide in the darkest underground. Hey, what is that?"
Yin Buchen squatted down again, then slowly stood up and looked into the city.
Not only him, but all the beastmasters on the boat turned to the city, showing surprise. Xiaohao couldn't help but be curious and jumped onto the wooden barrel to look at the city of Talang. Youliao in her hand struggled desperately, and wanted to see it clearly. She raised her arms and Youliao finally calmed down.
The residents of the Land of Land turned around in groups, and at first glance, they never looked back.
In the city, it should be the location of the palace garden, and a huge three-headed statue of the gods rose up.
"Who made this spell?" A voice that was not very convinced came from the crowd.
"This is the ancient god's spell. A month ago, didn't the ancient god kill half of the demon?"
"Ancient God, it's impossible..."
"Ancient God, it's possible..."
"Ancient God..."
Although the statue is huge, it is lifelike and slowly rotates, with three poems facing the crowd in turn, the scales on the snake's body, the bones of the skull, the eyebrows of the female head, the thunder character of the faceless head... Everything is as if it is right in front of you.
It seemed that a breeze blew, without any sound or explanation, but it blew away all doubts and confusion. Everyone was convinced that this was really an ancient god's appearance, not any spell of humans and demons.
The tension and alert disappeared, and the tense atmosphere disappeared instantly.
"Can this thing... be used to attack the demon clan?" Yin Buchen asked in a low voice.
"How many times can you use this trick?" Xiao Hao was also asking, asking Mu Xingqiu who was not in front of him.
