Chapter 2024 Strange
Night quickly enveloped the sky above this land of black rain, turning everything into a darker black.
And those usually elusive black rain monsters reappeared near the mountains without exception, flying towards the caves hiding people, as if they had accumulated countless hatred, roaring and guarding Outside the cave, there was a fearful look on his face that was extremely fierce but cowered and did not dare to step forward.
Cenario looked helplessly and irritably at the grinning black rain monsters outside the cave, but did not dare to take another step forward, with a dull expression on their faces.
It doesn’t understand why these black rain monsters come outside the cave every day and night to roar like a demonstration. What’s the point of doing this?
The black rain fell silently outside the cave, as if it had given new life to the endless black grass and forest outside the cave. It also made the shade trees at the entrance of the cave created by the Vine Aboriginal people begin to tremble slightly. Soon a gap began to appear in the shade of a tree, and the black rain fell bit by bit from the gap to the ground, forming the first rain puddle.
Cenario did not notice these small things, its attention was entirely on the rain gear on its body.
At this moment, it just hopes that the sky will light up sooner, so that it can follow Ji Xiaoyan and the others to leave this land of black rain, and no longer have to be stuck here without even having a bite of delicious food. There is nothing we can do about the meat!
It misses the air of Qingcheng, the food of Qingcheng, and the tall tower that it didn’t like very much before!
Several guards from Qing City followed Ji Xiaoyan's instructions and stood honestly near the mountain wall not far from Cenarion, staring closely at the cave outside the shade of the trees that did not dare to step in. The Black Rain monsters who were standing one step ahead had extremely vigilant expressions on their faces, and they did not slack off at all because this was the last night of duty.
Therefore, when the gap in the shade of the tree became larger and a piece of obviously different black grass grew on the ground, several guards from Qingcheng discovered this abnormal situation, and after careful discussion, , arranged for a guard to return to the cave to pass the news to the elders of the Vine tribe.
Soon the elders of the Teng tribe appeared at the entrance of the cave with several aborigines of the Teng tribe.
"Elder, look, it's over there! There has been a gap in the shade of the tree!" When several Qingcheng guards saw the elder of the Vine Tribe, they couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly He raised his hand and pointed in the direction of the gap, and said to everyone in the Vine Clan: " When it got dark, the gap wasn’t there yet! We watched the gap grow gradually until it was as big as a fist. If it continues like this, it seems that it may become even bigger!”
The elder of the Vine tribe nodded solemnly, carefully He glanced at the gap, thought for a moment, and then whispered instructions to the Vine tribe aborigines around him. He watched a Vine tribe aboriginal walk out of the cave, squatting down and stroking a tree under the gap. The big tree began to recite a spell in a low voice to prepare to repair the shade, and then He turned to the Qingcheng guards and said, "Pay more attention. If this happens again, tell them and they will repair all these gaps as soon as possible."
The Qingcheng guards looked at the elders of the Vine Clan. The natives of the Vine tribe beside him nodded quickly.
"You all have a better time tonight!" The elder of the Vine tribe thought for a while and said to the tribesmen around him: "Since this situation has occurred, it is very likely that it will happen again! You must be more vigilant and be sure to We must guard the shade of the tree. If the Demon Clan attacks us tonight, this shade will be our frontline battlefield."
Everyone in the Vine Clan nodded solemnly and assured the elders of the Vine Clan. With.
The Qingcheng guards also looked solemn when they heard this. They looked out of the cave with full energy, as if they were deeply afraid that someone from the fallen demon clan would rush in.
The elder of the Vine tribe looked solemnly at the shade of the trees outside the cave several times. He waited for the aborigine of the Vine tribe to repair the gap, and then looked at the man next to him. The guards of Qingcheng ordered: "You should pay more attention. If there is anything unusual, send someone into the cave immediately." Tell me and Lord Ji.”
The Qingcheng guards quickly nodded in response and watched the Vine clan elders enter the cave. Then they breathed a sigh of relief, and then greeted the Vine clan members warmly. The aborigines of the tribe sat with them and began to talk in low voices.
Cenarion looked at the Qingcheng guards and the aborigines of the Vine tribe with some boredom, then looked at the black rain monsters outside the cave, and then he lay down at the entrance of the cave to occupy it. He closed most of the hole and rested.
However, before he fell asleep, Cenarion heard a small sound. It rang for a few times, then disappeared. After a while, the sound sounded again. stand up.
Cenario couldn't help but frown, opened his golden eyes and looked outside the cave.
Several Qingcheng guards saw Cenarion's movements and couldn't help but look at him with some doubts.
"There seems to be movement outside!" Cenarion frowned and said to the guards of Qingcheng. Then he straightened up with a stern face and stretched out his head to look outside the cave. Although there was no Nothing was found, but it still considered it carefully and ordered to the Qingcheng guards: "Go and call some more people out!"
The Qingcheng guards did not dare to delay at all. They nodded quickly and without hesitation sent one person into the cave to report the news. The remaining few people, together with the aborigines of the Vine tribe, stood on the edge of the cave entrance with serious faces and stood on guard.
The rustling sounds became more and more frequent, mixed with the low roars of the black rain monsters, which seemed extremely strange and eye-catching.
"Lord Cenarion, are they from the fallen demon clan?" A Qingcheng guard glanced at Cenarion nervously, couldn't help asking, and looked at Cenarion After shaking his head silently to express that he didn't know, he couldn't help but said in a deep voice: "Then what should we do now?"
"Just keep a good eye on it! "Cenario thought for a while and whispered to a few Qingcheng guards. Then he looked at their thin bodies, thought for a while and said: "You all hide behind me. If anything happens, I will You can also resist it!"
The guards of Qingcheng nodded quickly and took the natives of the Vine tribe to hide behind Cenarion, carefully staring out of the cave.
At this moment, another gap opened in the shade of the trees outside the cave, and countless black raindrops fell to the ground in an instant.
"I'm going to repair it!" An aborigine from the Vine tribe immediately stood up and prepared to go out.
“Don’t go out, the situation outside is unclear!” A Qingcheng guard quickly grabbed the aboriginal of the Vine tribe and said with an uneasy look on his face: “We’ll wait until the city lord and the elders arrive.”< br>
“But the gap will get bigger!” The aborigines of the Vine tribe looked worried and anxious, wishing they could rush out and repair the shade now.
“Wait and see!” Cenarion also advised, and after seeing the Vine Tribe aboriginal stunned, he moved his gaze outside the cave. However, I don’t know if those shades have been created for a long time. After one gap appeared, the second one soon appeared.
Several aborigines of the Vine tribe frowned and looked into the cave impatiently.
“It’s the sixth one!” A Vine Tribe aboriginal said in a panic, “No, we have to go out and repair the gap! Otherwise, if something goes wrong with this shade, the elders and the city lord will Everyone will blame us!”
“But It's very dangerous outside! We still don't know how the voice that Master Cenarion said appeared." Several Qingcheng guards also looked anxious. They knew very well what the Vine Clan meant to them, the City Lord. What is the attitude of the adults towards the Vine clan! If we let a few natives of the Vine tribe go out and let them get into trouble or die, they will not be punished, but they will not be able to hold their heads high in front of the city lord!
They are the guards of Qingcheng, so they naturally want to protect their Qingcheng and Qingcheng allies.
"No, there are already six gaps. We have to go out and repair them!" Several aborigines from the Vine tribe insisted on their faces, regardless of the obstruction of the Qingcheng guards.
"Lord Cenarion, stop them" Several guards from Qingcheng couldn't stop them, so they had no choice but to ask for help from Cenarion.
"Lord Cenarion, you also know the usefulness of tree shade." Several natives of the Vine tribe looked up at Cenarion with solemn faces and said to it: " This shade is also very useful to you. It’s broken, you don’t want it, right?”
Cenario kept his eyes on the outside of the cave, watching helplessly as the seventh gap appeared, and then turned towards the natives of the Vine tribe. They glanced at it, and then whispered: "What the Qingcheng guards said That's right. Even though these shades are important, it's not safe outside. Let's wait until the city lord and the elders come out before making a decision!" "Sir Cenarion!" The residents shouted to Cenarion in disbelief. Seeing that it was only blocking the cave and had no intention of moving, I couldn't help but shouted angrily: "The elder said when he went back that the shade of the tree is very important and requires us to protect it well!! You're blocking us like this"
"I'm protecting you!" Cenarion said unceremoniously. Hearing the rustling sound in his ears again, he quickly made a silent gesture to everyone, and then listened attentively. stand up.
"Did you hear that?" When the voice disappeared again, Cenarion couldn't help turning his head and asked the people behind him.
The Vine tribe member still looked angry and turned his face away without saying a word.
Several Qingcheng guards shook their heads hesitantly. After seeing Cenarion a little disappointed, a Qingcheng guard close to the cave wall said hesitantly: "Lord Cenarion, I seem to I heard it a little bit."
"Did you hear it? What kind of sound was it?" Cenarion widened his eyes slightly and asked the Qingcheng guard.
"It's a bit like the sound of eating!! It's rustling." The Qingcheng guard frowned, recalled it carefully, and said with some uncertainty: "I didn't hear it clearly, so I'm not sure."< br>
"What I heard sounded like the sound of eating!" Cenarion nodded, and said solemnly: "How do you think this sound is formed?"
Everyone shook their heads, looking puzzled.
"Think about the gaps in the shade of the trees. Don't you think there is a very possibility of a connection?" Cenarion asked the natives of the Vine Tribe with great seriousness. Seeing them looking at themselves in great surprise, they whispered again: "Don't you think the speed at which these gaps appear is a bit too fast? If you really gave birth to these big trees, if the spell's effectiveness has been lost, Well, it shouldn’t be like this, little by little gaps appear. What do you think?”
The aborigines of the Teng tribe nodded immediately after hearing this, and looked towards the outside of the cave with serious faces. He looked at the shade of the tree, and then said: "Master Cenarion is saying that there is something eating the leaves of the trees outside, so these gaps are formed?"
"Well, that's what I guessed." Cenarion nodded, "How else did those sounds appear?"
After hearing this, everyone began to guess, could it be those flying black rains? Monsters did it?
Finally at this time, Ji Xiaoyan and the elders of the Teng clan appeared with a large number of Qingcheng guards and people from the city.
Several Qing city guards and the aborigines of the Vine tribe quickly told Ji Xiaoyan about this discovery and Cenarion's speculation, and then stood honestly by the stone wall of the cave, waiting for Ji Xiaoyan. 's command.
"You can come and listen!" Cenarion thought for a while and said to Ji Xiaoyan.
Ji Xiaoyan nodded and glanced at the elders of the Vine Tribe and the following Mandrill. The three of them walked to a small gap specially moved by Cenarion and stood there, then listened quietly.
The sound of "creak, creak, creak" really sounded, and it seemed unusually cheerful.
Ji Xiaoyan immediately frowned and looked at the elder of the Vine Clan worriedly.
"Let's be prepared first! We still don't know what will come." The elder of the Vine tribe also gave up the idea of repairing the shade of the tree and directly suggested to Ji Xiaoyan: "If there is really Something is eating the shade of the trees. It must be something from this land of black rain. As long as it gets bright, it may be We can leave. We will be safe if we survive this night."
"I think so too." Ji Xiaoyan nodded, thought about it and said to the crowd: "There is no barrier at the entrance of the cave. We are disadvantaged. Since we don’t need the shade, let’s build a defense line with rocks!”
