Chapter 340: Scarecrow Phalanx in Crisis
Leng Zhuxin entered the scarecrow formation earlier than Yang Jun, and she has been vigilant since she came in.
Although these scarecrows did not feel any danger when they came in, Leng Zhuxin did not believe that there would be so many harmless scarecrows in a secret realm full of dangers.
They stood neatly outside the formation.
Could it be that the former owner of the secret realm wanted to use these scarecrows to scare the monks who broke the formation to death?
The monks were not so timid.
So she had a feeling in her heart that these scarecrows might attack the monks at any time.
After entering the scarecrow formation, he was fully focused and ready to deal with any emergency at any time.
Sure enough, not long after she entered the square, she felt that something was staring at her, not just one, but many.
When she looked back, the feeling of being stared at from behind disappeared.
The scarecrow looked exactly the same as when she came in, and one could even see Yang Jun following behind her.
Leng Zhuxin turned back again and walked forward.
The Feishuang Sword has been unsheathed, and an ice cone has condensed in his left hand.
When she took a few more steps forward, Yang Jun quickly caught up with her.
The feeling of being stared at came back, and then there was a strange singing voice, somewhat like a nursery rhyme.
"Little scarecrow, big scarecrow, we are a group of scarecrows.
Scarecrow, scarecrow, everyone is a scarecrow.
There are sticks and whips to deal with the living scarecrow.
Hehehe, Scarecrow, you are a living scarecrow.
The scarecrow who came to accompany the little straw man..."
This strange singing kept looping in Leng Zhuxin's ears. The timbre was the same, but it came from more than one voice and from more than one direction.
It was as if they were surrounded by this strange singing.
The scarecrow in front of him didn't move, but there were strange noises coming from behind him, like the sound of bamboo poles hitting the ground.
The sound beat the rhythm, matching the strange singing coming from all directions.
Yang Jun mustered up the courage to turn around and yelled, "Who is playing tricks on me?"
But when he turned his head completely, he found nothing.
The singing in the air and the sound of bamboo sticks hitting the ground stopped. He didn't dare to turn back. He and Leng Zhuxin walked forward with one looking ahead and the other looking behind, fully alert.
"Be careful and move quickly! There's something strange about this place!"
Yang Jun said to Leng Zhuxin, the magic sword in his hand was unsheathed, and the other hand was tightly grasping a talisman.
Leng Zhuxin didn't dare to completely leave her back to Yang Jun, but she also knew that this place was weird.
In addition, since the entrance to Hengyuan Realm can randomly transmit the images inside the secret realm, Leng Zhuxin temporarily let down his guard.
He didn't say anything, but he didn't stop.
The two walked forward another ten meters, and the surroundings suddenly became empty.
The scarecrows that were originally only one or two steps away from them retreated, leaving them a circle with a diameter of about three meters.
The strange singing sounded in the air again, and the scarecrow's jagged smiling face facing them opened and closed, and the other scarecrows that were originally turning sideways or with their backs to them also turned their heads suddenly.
A black dot like the pupil appeared in the red circle-like eyes of all the scarecrows.
The jagged mouth opened and closed, and the poles were placed on the ground, making neat knocking sounds.
The scarecrows in the outermost circle moved quickly, as if someone was dragging them, or like soldiers coming to life, moving in an orderly manner, surrounding Leng Zhuxin and the other person.
The strange singing was still going on, and the sound of bamboo sticks knocking, accompanied by the friction of the scarecrow, made people feel fear and irritation.
Yang Jun couldn't hold back his anger and stabbed the scarecrow facing him with a sword, with a fire talisman on the tip of the sword.
When the fire talisman touched the scarecrow's body, it immediately caught fire. With a bang, the scarecrow turned into a fire man.
The bamboo pole in his hand also became a fire pole, but it didn't look burned at all.
Even the scarecrows around them that were not touched by the flames suddenly burst into flames, and then all the scarecrows in the entire arena, within their sight, began to burn themselves one after another.
The speed was so fast that it seemed like being hit by a falling rain of fire.
The flames on their bodies were not the ordinary spiritual fire that Yang Jun's fire talisman could emit, but the blue earth fire with extremely strong burning power.
The scarecrow seemed to be angered by Yang Jun, and his singing became much harsher.
The flaming pole stabbed towards the two men quickly, and a piece of Yang Jun's hair was burned off!
Leng Zhuxin quickly dodged the stabbing pole and looked at the scarecrow getting closer and closer. She could only throw out a water talisman, trying to use the water from the talisman to put out the fire on the scarecrow.
The fire on the scarecrow was indeed extinguished with the fire talisman, but the next moment, the scarecrows in front of him quickly split apart, and the number doubled!
At this time, the encirclement surrounding them was only less than one and a half meters in diameter.
"Water, fire..."
Leng Zhuxin just felt that she seemed to have grasped some pattern!
While fending off the scarecrow's attacks, he quickly recalled the Five Elements rules in his mind.
"Water produces wood! Wood produces fire!"
Leng Zhuxin looked at the scarecrows whose number continued to increase under the effect of the water talisman.
The scarecrows, the poles in their hands, and the whips made of straw from their waists are all made of wood!
Yang Jun used the fire talisman, which made the fire spread more violently and the flames stronger.
She used the water charm, and the scarecrows continued to grow due to the effect of the water, just like new branches growing on an old tree!
Maybe fire is the one that restrains wood. What can we do with these scarecrows that are not afraid of fire?
Leng Zhuxin immediately thought of how all things grow in spring, fall in autumn, and sleep in winter.
I thought of thunder again. Even a thousand-year-old tree could not survive being struck by lightning, let alone these man-made scarecrows!
She has the Heavenly Ice Spiritual Root, and Yang Jun has the Thunder Spiritual Root.
Leng Zhuxin loudly told Yang Jun his guess. Yang Jun hesitated for a few seconds before condensing a bolt of lightning in his hand.
A thin bolt of lightning struck the scarecrow. The scarecrow's arm, which was struck by lightning, instantly became charred, fell heavily to the ground, and turned into ashes.
"Sure enough!"
Yang Jun was delighted and no longer hesitated. A large area of thunder and fire spread out, quickly destroying all the scarecrows in front of him.
He turned his head, walked around, and stood in front of Leng Zhuxin: "Be careful, these brothers will help you deal with it, let's fight our way out."
Yang Jun led the way in front like a good senior brother, while Leng Zhuxin was always on guard against the scarecrow's sneak attack.
Although the ice spiritual root has a restraining effect on these scarecrows, it can only trap them and make them temporarily unable to move. Only the thunder spiritual power can kill them instantly.
There was a thunder talisman in Leng Zhuxin's space, but this would be free labor, so she didn't take it out again.
Soon, the two of them reached the outskirts of the scarecrow formation. Many scarecrows were killed along the way, and the strange singing became much quieter.
As soon as they came out, the singing stopped immediately.
Looking back, I saw that many scarecrows that had been killed quickly returned to their original positions, one every three steps.
A gust of wind blew by, and after being struck by lightning, the scarecrow turned into ashes and was blown away completely.
Brand new and complete scarecrows reappeared among them, completing the scarecrow formation.
Just as the scarecrow formation was completed, the scarecrows completely disappeared in front of them, and man-eating vines grew in their original positions.
Not killed by lightning, not incinerated by fire!
