Chapter 587

"What sound? Why didn't we hear it?" Lu Dahai asked.

"Our mental skill is particularly sensitive to sound. We can hear your lower voice. You haven't practiced it, so naturally you can't hear it." Shuiqing fairy said. Then she listened for a while and said, "it's insects, many, many insects. Si Qin, take some sisters to other directions and stop the insects outside!"

"Yes, elder martial sister." Si Qin and others stood in other directions and looked at the front.

"General Ji, we haven't heard anything. Is there something really wrong?" Lu Dahai saw that Ji Liufeng was also alert, and thought everyone was making a fuss.

"Since the general asked them to come, they must be powerful. The people in shuiyuetian are not ordinary people." Ji Liufeng said, "tell them to go down and make everyone ready for battle!"

"Yes, general Ji!"

"Here we are."

As soon as Shuiqing fairy's voice fell, she saw many insects running down the mountain behind.

"Danger is in the rear!" shouted a soldier.

"There are also in front!"

"On the left!"

"There are insects on the right!"

"Mom, it's encircling us!" Lu Dahai scolded when he heard the voices of all parties.

Tang Yu saw the fast approaching insects and shouted, "these are poisonous insects. Don't let them get into our bodies!"

"So many are poisonous insects? Isn't it difficult to cultivate poisonous insects? The number is rare. How can there be so many?!"

"These are the simplest insects, and the cultivation method is simple." Tang Yu said, "but it also makes such insects difficult to control, and they often use sound to direct their actions. Our weapons have no advantage against these small insects, so we must change another method."

Shuiqing fairy saw the approaching insects, clenched the flute in her hand and said, "defense array!"

"Yes, elder martial sister!" the people in shuiyuetian answered in unison, and then played the musical instrument in their hands.

With the music playing, the speed of the insects crawling over slowed down a lot.

"Since these insects need to be controlled by someone, it means that the person is not far from here. Lu Dahai and Zeng Tai, take someone to find the person who controls the insects." Ji Liufeng ordered.

"Yes, general Ji. The first team comes with me."

"The second team comes with me."

Lu Dahai and Zeng Tai waved and took people out.

"When we find a way out for you," said Shuiqing fairy.

"No... ah!" a soldier wanted to run out directly. As soon as he ran outside the sound attack defense array, he was surrounded by poisonous insects.

These poisonous insects were originally blocked by the sound attack. They were already anxious. Now they finally saw a man come out, a big wave climbed onto his body, followed his five senses into his body, and killed the soldier in minutes.

"Dead, dead..."

The steps of the soldiers who were about to rush out were nailed in place and were stunned for a moment.

"I said Gu insects should not be underestimated. You are so reckless!" Tang Yu yelled at them when he saw someone dead.

"I'll escort you out," said Shuiqing fairy.

"OK." Zeng Tai nodded.

"Follow me." Shuiqing fairy said and put the flute on her lips. Zeng Tai took his team out with her.

The rest of the soldiers were relieved to see Zeng Tai and them go out safely. Before, they really didn't pay attention to the insects. They thought that they should be no different from ordinary insects. Only when they saw that these insects killed the soldier in such a short time did they really pay attention to them.

Ji Liufeng saw Zeng Tai go out safely. His face softened a lot and said to Tang Yu, "deputy general Tang, you are familiar with poisonous insects. Is there any way to deal with these poisonous insects? We can't rely on them to protect us all the time."

"Fire." Tang Yu said, "most of the poisonous insects are afraid of fire. As long as they attack with fire, they should be able to reduce their pressure."

"Prepare torches," Ji Liufeng said.

"General, we don't have that much wood," said a captain.

Ji Liufeng looked at the few bits of wood piled next to the fire, looked at their tent and said, "dismantle the tent."

"Yes."

After a while, the tents were removed one by one. They tore the cloth into strips, lit the fire, came to the front of the defense array, and then threw the strips at the insects.

Many of the foremost insects were burned to death by the fire. The latter insects retreated a lot when they saw the fire, but they still stayed outside and refused to leave.

"General, you can't burn any farther." someone said, "if you go out of the defense array, I'm afraid you'll encounter a Gu insect raid."

"Bring the general's crossbow." Ji Liufeng said.

Soon, a small crossbow was handed to him.

"Fire cloth."

A soldier quickly lit a piece of cloth and handed it to Ji Liufeng.

Ji Liufeng inserted the other end of the fire cloth into the crossbow arrow, and then shot it in the distance. "Whoosh -" the short arrow took the fire cloth and fell among the insects. Soon, the fire cloth burned many insects. Seeing this, the other soldiers cooperated and shot out the fire cloth with a bow and crossbow. The fire cloth burned many poisonous insects, and other poisonous insects did not dare to move forward at will, so that they could have a rest. "Take us as the center, burn a circle 100 meters ahead." Ji Liufeng told the soldiers that some grass could burn. So the bows and crossbows in the hands of the soldiers changed their distance and burned a siege around them. For fear of burning the whole mountain forest, the mountain was still defended by sound attack. The fire circle held the poisonous insects outside. With the passage of time, the fire has spread towards them. If it continues, it can't be controlled, but if you put it out now, the poisonous insects will continue to attack. At this time, the poisonous insects outside slowly retreated and quickly disappeared into the night. Soon. "General, the insects have retreated." "it should be Zeng Tai's hands." Tang Yu said. "Put out the fire." Ji Liufeng ordered. After a while, Shuiqing fairy and Zeng Tai came back and saw a messy camp without saying anything. Now there are only two tents left in the whole camp. Because there are too many fire cloth, the soldiers demolished their tents, so no one went to dismantle the water fairy and their two tents. Shuiqing fairy came to Siqin and said, "you're tired. Go in and have a rest. It's almost dawn, but it's OK without disfigurement." "well." Siqin and her men didn't look at the officers and soldiers, and they just occupied the remaining two tents.
