Chapter 5 Spider Forest
On the narrow path at the foot of the Tiger Roaring Mountains, Zhang Debiao rode on Xiao Hei and sped past. A cloud-born leopard lurking in the tree canopy beside the road quickly pounced down and launched a surprise attack on the boy. However, when it fell, the giant dog had already run dozens of meters away. The cloud-born leopard shook its head in confusion, as if surprised that there was a monster faster than it.
This cloud-born leopard had no idea that it had walked around the gates of hell, and jumped into the tree canopy again, continuing to lurk, waiting for the next prey.
"I hope this trip to the Holy Mountain will bring me a surprise." Zhang Debiao gently opened the map, and saw that the map showed the mountains and rivers of the Sunset Forest. A blue line extended from the Manchu Village. At the end of the blue line was a mountain, which was circled in red pen, and the words "Holy Mountain" were written crookedly next to it.
This map was naturally drawn by Rock Wild Hammer. Zhang Debiao was going to the Holy Mountain to participate in the barbarian's coming-of-age ceremony. The first warrior of the Mengzhuan tribe drew this map with his memory for two days and two nights.
The coming-of-age ceremony is a unique custom of the barbarians in southern Xinjiang. It is the most important event in the life of the people in southern Xinjiang and also the cruelest test. At the coming-of-age ceremony, the teenagers will set out from their tribes, paint their foreheads with strange oil paints, and go to the Holy Mountain in the south of the Sunset Forest. The road to the Holy Mountain is long and full of unknown dangers. They must rely on their own strength to reach the top of the Holy Mountain and pray devoutly to their god, Mother Earth Tanya.
Every year, nearly one-third of the teenagers die on the way to the coming-of-age ceremony. Although the remaining teenagers are strong among their peers, there are still a small number of people with weak wills who cannot pass the test. The losers will be exiled by the local village chief when they return to the village.
Lame Langtu did not pass the coming-of-age ceremony that year, so he was exiled to other places. After returning to the Wild Hammer Village with a limp, the villagers still looked down on him.
Survival of the fittest, this is the law of the forest. Only by eliminating the weak can the barbarians continue to reproduce.
After passing the coming-of-age ceremony, the teenagers can enter the Tanya Temple. It is said that the stone walls of the temple are engraved with various martial arts, which are the crystallization of the wisdom of countless predecessors of the Southern Xinjiang barbarians. The teenagers who have passed the coming-of-age ceremony can choose a martial art they like. However, there are many low-level mental methods in the Tanya Temple, and only a small number of high-level mental methods. How to choose the mental method is also a test for the teenagers.
"This time I go to the Holy Mountain, maybe I can find a high-level Dou Qi guidance technique."
After becoming an eighth-level barbarian warrior, Zhang Debiao's barbaric strength has almost doubled compared to before, but the stagnation of the low-level guidance technique has become stronger.
If the problem of Dou Qi guidance technique cannot be solved, let alone becoming a barbarian fighter, even a ninth-level barbarian warrior will have some difficulties!
Xiao Hei's speed is very fast. He walked two hundred miles in half a day. At this speed, he can reach the Holy Mountain in four or five days at most. At this time, Zhang Debiao suddenly saw three people standing by the road with horses in front of him.
Judging from the attire of these three people, they should also be teenagers who are attending the coming-of-age ceremony. However, judging from the tribal totems on their foreheads, they are from other tribes. Zhang Debiao ignored them and was about to pass by. One of the teenagers said happily: "Wild Hammer II, it is you. I wonder who else in the forest would ride a big black dog!"
Zhang Debiao stopped immediately and looked at him in confusion. The teenager smiled and said: "I am Abugen from Muchui Village. I once fought with you. Have you forgotten?"
Zhang Debiao suddenly remembered that this Abugen was the son of the village chief of the neighboring Muchui Village. He had met him when he was a child and had some conflicts.
The village chief of Muchui Village was a brave and aggressive guy. Because he was dissatisfied with Rock Wild Hammer being the first warrior of the tribe, he took Abugen to challenge the Wild Hammer Village and was beaten up by Rock Wild Hammer. Abugen challenged Zhang Debiao to avenge his father, so he was also beaten up.
Zhang Debiao recalled the interesting things in his childhood, and a smile appeared on his lips. He nodded and said, "It's you. What are you doing standing here? Why don't you continue on your way?"
"The Spider Forest is ahead. It's impossible to get through with few people. Let's wait for a few more people and get through together." Abugen smiled and said, "Second generation, although you are powerful, you are alone after all. Why don't we go together?"
Zhang Debiao hesitated for a moment, and before he could speak, there were bursts of hoof sounds from behind, and a young knight in black armor galloped over. The young man was wearing a big cape, a black armor, and a flag painted on his chest armor, revealing a murderous aura.
The mount under the young man's crotch was even more amazing. It turned out to be a lion-tiger beast with a length of more than ten feet from head to tail!
The lion-tiger beast is a sixth-level magic beast with a lion head and a tiger body. Its speed and endurance are amazing. It can ride two or three ordinary adults. After training, it is not afraid of the battlefield. It is an extremely rare mount.
Abugen exclaimed: "It's the Black Flag Guards of the main city! Could it be that someone has become a Black Cavalry Guards before passing the coming-of-age ceremony?"
Zhang Debiao asked curiously: "What are the Black Flag Guards?"
Abugen whispered: "It is said that when the founding emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty pacified the world, he divided the world's troops into eight towns, which were respectively managed by the eight generals of the Eight Pillars. Among them, our barbarians are in charge of the Black Flag Town Barbarians, also known as the Black Flag Guards. The Black Flag Guards have less than 20,000 soldiers, but they are the elite of the elite of the world's troops. I heard that one out of ten Black Flag Guards is a Barbarian Fighter!"
"One out of ten is a Barbarian Fighter?"
Zhang Debiao also exclaimed, and felt unbelievable in his heart. His father, Rock Man Hammer, is the first warrior of the Mengzhuan tribe and the only Barbarian Fighter in the tribe, but the Black Flag Guards have 2,000 Barbarian Fighters. Isn't this too exaggerated?
"The fighting spirit inheritance of the main city is sound, how can it be compared with the tribes in our countryside? Second, although you are powerful, I am afraid that you can't beat anyone from the Black Cavalry Forbidden Army!"
The young man from the Black Flag Army quickly rushed to the five people. A Bugen quickly stood in the middle of the road and said loudly: "Brothers on horseback, stop and let's go together..."
"You untouchable in the countryside, get out of the way!" The young man from the Black Flag Army on horseback snorted coldly, stabbed him with a spear, and a cold light went straight to Abugen's throat.
Zhang Debiao frowned, raised the iron gun in his hand and tapped it lightly. The tip of the gun collided violently with the tip of the gun, making a crisp sound like gold and iron!
"Huh?" The young knight was slightly surprised and sneered: "I didn't expect that there are masters in such a poor place in the countryside. I am in a hurry today and have no time to play with you. I will let you live first!" After that, he rushed in directly. In the spider forest.
Abugen was just stunned and said angrily: "Who is this guy? Why does he kill people at every turn!"
"I know this man. He is a noble lord in the city and the son of the lord of Tianmang City. His name is Shaodian Jialuo." Kui Bochong, a dark-skinned young man next to him, said.
The Bochong tribe is located near Tianmang City, so he knows Tianmang City well.
There are five main cities of the barbarians in southern Xinjiang, namely Tianmang, Yunque, Heishui, Xuanhu, and Yanli. Each city has a city lord. The city lord is also called the Barbarian King, and the city lord of Tianmang City is the Barbarian King Hujialuo. .
Abugen said angrily: "It turns out that he is the son of the city lord. No wonder he is so domineering... Second, thank you just now. Fortunately, you blocked it for me. By the way, your strength has increased a lot now, and you can actually take the black flag." A blow from the army, when will we compete again?"
Balutu, another young man from the Mad Wolf tribe, snorted coldly and said, "That Black Cavalry Forbidden Army must not have used all its strength, otherwise you two would have died long ago!" Mad Wolf and the Mengzhuan tribe are feuding, what does Balutu think of Zhang Debiao? Not happy either.
Kui Bochong also nodded and said, "Fortunately."
Although Abu Gen knew that Zhang Debiao was very powerful, when he fought with him, Zhang Debiao was a level five barbarian warrior, and he did not think that he would be Shaodian's opponent. He smiled and said, "Shaodian just rushed into the spider forest and used With his ability, he can definitely get through, it would be much easier if we follow him!"
"What a great idea!" Balutu and Kui Bo were overjoyed and quickly mounted their horses and ran towards the Spider Forest. Zhang Debiao also followed behind on Xiao Hei, and the group followed the traces left by Shaodian and entered the Spider Forest.
The corpses of monsters killed by Shaodian were everywhere along the way. A Bugen and others were horrified when they saw them. Zhang Debiao wondered: "These monsters are common low-level monsters. What's the surprise in killing them?"
After walking forward for an unknown distance, the number of corpses of monsters on the ground gradually became less and less. A Bugen and the others were relieved, chatting and laughing, but Zhang Debiao became wary. The decrease in corpses of monsters on the ground does not mean that the area is safe. On the contrary, the hidden dangers are greater. According to his four years of hunting experience, there are often only two reasons for the sudden decrease of low-level monsters. They are not being preyed upon by stronger hunters. , was frightened by the pressure of powerful monsters and migrated to other places.
"Doo Mimi, ah, ah——"
As we walked, a burst of melodious singing suddenly came from the front, which was quiet and sweet. Just the sound of singing fills people with charming reverie, as if there is a clear inlet in front of them, lotus flowers grow by the stream, and several singing girls are playing in the water, using the clear spring to wash their suet-like skin.
Abugen and others looked strange, and Balutu chuckled and said, "This singing is so sultry, people can't help but want to run over and take a peek..."
The four of them walked forward. Zhang Debiao quietly took off his iron gun and held it in his hand. After walking forward for a hundred or ten meters, the singing was getting closer and closer. After bypassing a dense bush, the vision suddenly opened up, and I saw a green grassland in front of me. Three huge humanoid spider monsters were dining around a liger.
This is the overlord of the Spider Forest, Rose Spider Monster. These spider monsters have eight long, sharp legs. Their lower bodies are spiders, but their upper bodies are the naked bodies of women, clearly revealing the beauty of the female figure. If you don't look at their lower bodies, the appearance of these roses is enough to turn all men into beasts and make all women crazy with jealousy. But with the body of a spider, this kind of monster is the most exciting in the spider forest. Horrible creature!
A Ross spider monster murmured in an elegant and moving voice. It stretched out its arms and gently held a spherical object, as if using this object to pray to the gods they believed in.
"Ah!" Uncle Kui shouted in horror, "It's Shaodian's head!"
Zhang Debiao glared at him fiercely and lowered his voice: "Give me your iron gun quickly!"
Before the three of them could react, the three Ross spider monsters suddenly moved their ears and looked up.
"Dou Mimi ah ah -"
The leader of the Rose Spider Monster couldn't help singing a hunting song excitedly when he saw so many fresh and delicious prey. When her bright red and alluring little mouth was singing, the corners of her mouth were split all the way to her ears, revealing sharp white teeth that sparkled.
Balutu shuddered, quickly reined in his horse, turned around, and ran away without saying a word. But at this moment, a Ross spider monster opened its big mouth, and a snow-white spider silk shot out, tying up Balutu and his horse tightly, and quickly pulled him towards him!
Zhang Debiao snorted angrily, and inserted the spear in his hand heavily between Balutu's legs. The two-meter-long spear was half-deep into the ground!
Barutu was pulled against the iron spear and screamed miserably. His savage strength was extraordinary. He struggled to break free from the spider silk, holding the iron spear tightly with both hands, and breathing cold air from his mouth.
The Ross spider monster couldn't pull it anymore, and paused heavily. Barutu's wounded object hit the spear again. The brave man of the Crazy Wolf Tribe finally couldn't hold on. His eyes rolled back and he fainted happily.
The remaining two Ross spider monsters took eight steps and rushed over here at a high speed. One of the Ross spider monsters even grabbed Shaodian's iron spear and danced with it. It actually knew how to use weapons!
