take father as heaven

When the sky just darkened, Murong Yan began to feel guilty, and quickly asked everyone to rush to a wide place according to the map, away from the mountain wall and did not dare to approach the water source, and told everyone to take the time to rest for a while, and the real worry was at night when.

The crowd didn't know why, but the reverence for him made them follow suit without any objection.

Murong Yan stood in front of the team, watching the depths of the rift from afar, and waited for a long time, until the last ray of sunlight was about to be annihilated, and finally saw a few people trotting back.

Beckett took the lead. When he returned to the team, he was still slightly out of breath. "My lord, everything is according to your orders."

"Yeah." Murong Yan sent them back to rest, and then quietly waited for the changes in the valley after nightfall. Those soldiers who were resting on the spot didn't notice anything wrong at first, but when the whole valley was covered by that kind of When surrounded by the numbing voices, everyone's expressions finally changed.

Even Beckett approached Murong Yan with a changed face, "Be careful, my lord."

"Don't panic." Murong Yan stood on a big rock, "Stay alert."

Everyone was busy holding guns and leaning against each other, staring nervously at the mountain walls on both sides, while listening to the tingling voices getting closer and closer, a few soldiers might have been frightened, and couldn't help but retreat Take a few steps.

"Calm down! Don't go near the water source." Looking at the panicked eyes of those people facing unknown fear, Murong Yan said lightly, "The things in the water are more powerful."

As soon as these words fell, several soldiers who were closer to the water jumped out almost instantly, avoiding the water source from a distance but looking at the mountain walls on both sides with fear.

The sound kept going. Although the sky was completely dark, after everyone got used to the darkness, they still regained some vision. Murong Yan didn't allow them to turn on any lights. On the one hand, it was to stabilize everyone's emotions, otherwise Still, whoever saw the dense sea-like black swarm gushing out would be frightened and confused.

But even if they couldn't see it clearly, many people still saw the black surging thing, but they didn't know what it was.

"What's that?" "It seems to be coming." "It's been moving..."

Murong Yan listened to the whispered discussions of the soldiers, the expression on his face remained unchanged, but the soldiers started to panic, seeing that unknown black thing seemed to be getting closer and closer, the soldiers could no longer restrain themselves The guns were bolted open, and they seemed to fire as soon as the order was given.

"Two steps back, don't shoot."

Everyone took another two steps back, but because they didn't dare to get too close to the water source, everyone had to stick together tightly. The atmosphere on the scene suddenly reached a critical point, everyone subconsciously held their breath, and everyone was quiet. No one dared to speak again, as if they were afraid that a slight movement would attract the danger in front of them.

Murong Yan watched silently, as if waiting for something, but those swarms of insects seemed to be unaware, and slowly spread towards the densely populated place, seeing how far they were from the crowd. It was less than two meters away.

Everyone finally saw the appearance of the dark thing clearly. It turned out to be a kind of slender, black-covered insects. The number was astonishing. This dense and boundless feeling made all the soldiers feel cold.

Looking at the situation, it seemed that something was not going well, so Murong Yan would not passively wait to die, he raised his hand and made a gesture, everyone raised the guns in their hands, and then opened the bolt.

Seeing that the insects were only one meter away from the crowd, suddenly the miserable groans of animals came from the valley in the distance. Murong Yan's frown, which had been slightly frowned, finally relaxed, "Put the gun away."

The soldiers were taken aback by the sudden change. Some were still hesitating whether they should carry out the order accurately, but others had noticed that the bugs that had been slowly approaching seemed to have changed their direction.

The mournful groans in the distance became more and more rapid and frequent. The insects seemed to be attracted, and their speed of movement suddenly increased a lot. Everyone seemed to be caught in the middle of two fast-flowing black rivers on the left and right.

Murong Yan watched those bugs moving in the same direction collectively, and finally heaved a sigh of relief. In fact, he was not calm just now, but he didn't dare to show it. After all, all the soldiers were watching him. If he panicked I'm afraid that the remaining people will be even more chaotic. Fortunately, the crisis tonight seems to be over.

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief when they saw the bugs moving to other positions and not approaching them.

"Rest in place and arrange some people to guard."

Although Beckett had many questions, he still took orders immediately, and after finishing the arrangement, he turned back to Murong Yan's side.

"What do you want to ask?" Murong Yan had already seen the doubts on his face and his entangled look of hesitating whether to ask, so he asked directly.

"Yes, my lord." Beckett pondered for a moment, "Did your lord know about the situation at the bottom?"

In the few orders before entering the valley, all soldiers did not bring tents and other heavy items, but only light weapons and dry food. At first, everyone thought that the road at the bottom of the valley was rough, so it was convenient to travel.

However, everyone was asked to hunt again. The prey they hunted were not allowed to be killed, but their limbs were broken to prevent them from escaping, and then they were carried into the valley. At that time, Beckett thought it was just for food storage.

But after entering the valley, when the sun just started to set, the general found a wide place for everyone to get together and take the time to rest, and ordered him to take the prey that several people were about to hunt, and quickly headed to the valley. Deep, looking for a suitable place to discard.

Beckett naturally didn't understand, but the military order was inevitable, and he still followed the instructions, throwing the prey in a fairly spacious valley, cutting a few slits on the animals that couldn't move, and taking them with him. Everyone returned quickly, returning to the meeting point before the sun completely set.

What happened after that was even more unexpected. The swarms of insects suddenly appeared in the gaps of the mountain walls, the invisible danger in the water, the general's calm expression, and the order of calm and unhurried, until the swarms suddenly diverted and dispersed.

All of this seemed to have been expected early on, and it wasn't until the prey screamed and the swarm left that he suddenly understood the intention of some of the general's orders.

This question was actually just a formality, and he already vaguely had an answer in his heart.

Sure enough, Murong Yan didn't hide anything from him, he nodded and answered "Yes."
