Chapter 68 Mosquito Spirit Suddenly
Soon, the captains and leaders of the soldiers who participated in the last search for ruins in the Su family gathered in the town hall. Now the bodies found in the jungle outside the town have been placed in the council chamber. Look, everyone! What did this do? Su Huaide did not directly say that it was caused by the giant mosquito. He pointed to the corpse on the ground and asked everyone to go up and watch.
Although these people in the hall participated in the last search for Fengshenzhu, most of them have not seen giant mosquitoes. So naturally they can't know what sucked out the blood. However, the death of these people on the ground still shocked the people in the hall.
"Long Su!" Zhang Zhentian and Jiang Dongfang looked at each other, and finally Zhang Zhentian came out and said, "These people seem to have been killed by giant mosquitoes!"
"Giant mosquito?" The others in the hall burst into amazement. They have never seen giant mosquitoes, so it is naturally difficult to believe that giant mosquitoes have such ability. The next step is a series of whispers. Everyone is talking about Zhang Zhentian's words.
"Yes! Uncle." Jiang Dongfang also took over and said, "When we first opened the world, we were attacked by giant mosquitoes in the ruins. This is the state of the people they kill."
The people in the hall listened to Jiang Dongfang's words, and the discussion became louder. However, soon the whole hall became silent. After all, everyone wants to know more about giant mosquitoes. People are like this and have a strong curiosity about things they can't explain.
"Hmm!" Su Huaide nodded in agreement with the two of them, "Your two views are the same as mine and Mingxuan. These people should have been killed by giant mosquitoes.
"But..." Zhang Zhentian looked at the bodies on the ground and said in surprise, "Where did Chief Su find these bodies? Are they giant mosquitoes..." Obviously, he didn't want to believe that the giant mosquitoes have returned to land. He would rather believe that the giant mosquitoes that escaped from the island war went deeper into the sea.
"I found it outside the town." Su Huaide answered without a doubt, "Recently, some bodies of other animals sucked dry by them were found outside the town, but we didn't care at that time."
Listen to Su Huaide's words, there was another chaos in the hall. After all, many of the people in the hall are the captains and leaders of Su Huaide's soldiers. They usually participate in patrols outside the town. So they naturally know about the discovery of animal corpses outside the town.
"What!" Seeing that the discussion of the crowd did not stop for a while, Su Huaide coughed gently and ended their discussion, "If this thing is really done by a giant mosquito. So how should we defend against their attack? Su Huaide's mind thought about whether the giant mosquito would attack Su Jiaji.
The people in the hall immediately became quiet again after listening to Su Huaide's question. First, they have never seen a giant mosquito, and second, the people in the hall are stupid. Who doesn't know that giant mosquitoes can fly? In this world, spirits running on the ground are not terrible. They can be blocked by walls; but those that can fly will be much more troublesome to deal with.
Su Huaide waited for a long time, and he saw that no one was willing to speak. He had to turn his eyes to Zhang Zhentian and Jiang Dongfang again. In fact, he has never seen the giant mosquito himself, so he feels that Zhang Zhentian and Jiang Dongfang, who have dealt with the giant mosquito, are naturally more ways to deal with the giant mosquito.
"Miang, the giant mosquitoes are very big, and they will make a loud noise when they fly." When Zhang Zhentian saw Su Huaide's eyes, he thought and said, "As long as we prepare more bows and crossbows, when they approach, we can shoot them. They don't fly fast. As long as our soldiers grasp the distance and find a strong room as a shelter before they approach. Su Huaide listened to Zhang Zhentian's words and nod with approval. He thinks that Zhang Zhentian's words are still very reasonable.
"In addition, we should also prepare a large number of nets and other nets to cover the sky of our town." At this time, Jiang Dongfang also opened his mouth, "In this way, the giant mosquito will not easily enter the town when attacking."
"Good! This is a good way!" Su Huaide listened and said happily. It is indeed a good way to protect the sky of the whole town with big fishing nets. After all, Sujiaji is not a big city. Its area is not large. Although this work* is not small to implement, it is still possible to achieve it.
"Good! Not bad." The rest of the hall is now whispering, "We can try!"
"Since everyone has no objection! Then do what Zhentian and Dongfang said!" Su Huaide looked around the people in the hall. Seeing that they had no intention of objecting, he ordered loudly, "You follow Zhentian to prepare arrows, and the rest of you follow the East to prepare the fish net bar!" Speaking of this, Su Huaide stood up and said, "I will go to Ink City today and try to come back tomorrow night. During this period, everything in the city was in charge of my wife Sun Mingxuan. The preparation for the defense against the giant mosquito will be left to you two, Zhentian and Dongfang.
Zhang Zhentian and Jiang Dongfang nodded respectfully after listening to Su Huaide's words. Immediately, everyone dispersed and prepared according to Su Huaide's arrangement.
"Wide, are you going to Ink City at this time?" When the crowd dispersed, Sun Mingxuan looked at Su Huaide uneasily.
"Yes!" Su Huaide agreed, "I have to inform Tian Zheng of the appearance of the giant mosquitoes in Ink City!" Speaking of this, he sighed, "It's not safe outside now. Let others go, I'm afraid of delaying things.
"Oh!" Sun Mingxuan couldn't help sighing when she heard Su Huaide's words. Su Huaide's worries are not unreasonable. If the news can't be sent out, the ink city and nearby towns may also be in danger.
In the jungle outside the city, the giant mosquitoes have indeed returned here now. Under the leadership of Qiao Yunting, they settled down in the area of Wangyue Lake. The area they choose is a territory that originally belonged to the hornets. There, Qiao Yunting negotiated with Beeling, and now the wasps have allowed them to live in their areas and be neighbors with them. Naturally, there are conditions, that is, the giant mosquitoes must find a way to help them drive out the nearby lizards.
Qiao Yunting is naturally willing to accept Fengling's request. Although she has got the Fengshenzhu now, she can't fully control the power of Fengshenzhu. The giant mosquitoes were almost lost in the battle on the island, and now it is most important for her to find a place to settle down. Moreover, the lizard spirit was originally the culprit who drove them away from the ruins of the city, so it is natural for the mosquito spirit to deal with the lizard spirit.
"Hum!" A mosquito spirit flew into Qiao Yunting's nest. He said respectfully to Qiao Yunting, "Queen, now Su Huaide, the original leader of Su Jiaji, has left Su Jiaji and went to Ink City."
"Very good! Did he leave alone? Buzz." Qiao Yunting listened to the mosquito spirit's report and asked happily. As long as Su Huaide leaves, there will be a lot less resistance to attack Su Jiaji. Although Qiao Yunting is undoubtedly Qiao Yunting in appearance now, in fact, she is dominated by mosquito spirits. However, under the influence of Fengshenzhu, part of her consciousness was awakened again. So now Qiao Yunting is smarter than other mosquito spirits, and she controls Fengshenzhu, so she naturally becomes the leader of these remaining mosquito spirits.
"Yes, Queen." The mosquito spirit who came to report still answered respectfully.
"That's good! Let's go on and get everyone ready for battle. We will go to attack Su Jiaji tonight and be sure to get more materials back. After Qiao Yunting finished speaking, she leaned against the wall to rest. The mosquito spirit who came to report withdrew from her nest and went out to arrange things for the evening.
At night, Su Jiaji became silent again. After a busy day, a large number of arrows have been prepared on the top of the wall. At the same time, more than half of the town also pulled fishing nets and other mesh fabrics under the command of Jiang Dongfang to prevent the attack of mosquito spirits. If the remaining project goes well, it should be completed in two to three days. Although the town is small, it also takes time to prepare the defense completely. Most importantly, the fishing nets and mesh fabrics in the town have run out. It also takes time to make it.
"Brother Zhang, it's very quiet outside the town tonight!" Jiang Dongfang and Zhang Zhentian took more than a dozen soldiers to patrol the wall of Su Jiaji. Today is the first night Su Huaide left Su Jiaji, and the giant mosquito may be hiding somewhere nearby. Naturally, they have to be more careful.
"Yes!" After listening to Jiang Dongfang's words, Zhang Zhentian stood firmly on the head of the city, and then he held the stack of the wall and said, "Dongfang, where do you think these giant mosquitoes will hide?"
"I think according to their habits, should they find a place close to the water source to camp?" Jiang Dongfang said according to the habits of mosquitoes in the earth world, "Mosquito larvae have to grow in water."
"Water?" Zhang Zhentian listened to Jiang Dongfang's words. He turned his head and asked the original soldier behind him, "Is there a river or lake near us?"
"Yes! Mr. Zhang. The soldier replied, "There is a big river called the Mo River near Mo City. Ink City is also named after it. It's near us! The closest to us is Wangyue Lake.
"Moon Lake?" Zhang Zhentian listened to the repetition in his mouth.
"It's right there!" The soldier who spoke just saw Zhang Zhentian repeating the name of Wangyue Lake. He casually raised his finger to the southeast, "There is a small lake there. It's a place where monsters haunt. We seldom go there."
"Is it?" Zhang Zhentian listened to his words and instinctively nodded. Then he looked at Jiang Dongfang again, "Dongfang, has the defense in the southeast been arranged?"
"Arranged!" Jiang Dongfang said happily, "Today, we first pulled the net in the east, and then the southeast and northeast. Now there are still some places in the west and north of the city that have not been done well! All the other places have been net-pulsed.
"That's good!" Zhang Zhentian nodded and said, "Let's go to the southeast to have a look!" I always feel uneasy."
"Good!" After listening to Zhang Zhentian's words, Jiang Dongfang answered obediently.
In Zhang Zhentian's heart, he vaguely felt that the giant mosquitoes were ambushed in an area near Wangyue Lake. If the giant mosquito attacks Su Jiaji, they will definitely come from the southeast corner of Su Jiaji. And his premonitions have actually all come true. Because when they walked to the southeast corner of the city wall, Qiao Yunting also took the rest of her giant mosquitoes flying from Wangyue Lake to the Su family.
