Mountains and rivers are waiting for you to return

Chapter 269 Extra Ten Bone-Spurred Monsters
The explosion here had not yet subsided when an explosion occurred in the outer nest, and the passage they had been walking through was detonated in succession.

The eardrums are vibrated and the buzzing sounds continue to accumulate.

Pei Nai was held in Gu Jinheng's arms, and Gu Jinheng covered her ears with his hands to reduce the damage caused by the loud noise.

Pei Nai was protected and reacted as soon as the first explosion ended. Gu Jinheng had excellent hearing and the damage to his eardrum was much greater than hers, so she quickly raised her hands and covered his ears.

The two of them snuggled up to each other and hugged each other, covering each other's ears, standing on the narrow slope in mid-air, barely keeping their bodies steady.

Until the vibration ends.

Gu Jinheng slowly let go of his hand.

Pei Nai looked at the high-altitude platform opposite, only to see that all the equipment in the camp had been shaken to the ground, and many tents had been smashed through by rocks.

Some soldiers and members of the Lei family had fallen to the ground, some even injured and bleeding.

The entire Lei family camp was in a mess.

"Someone's dead! Someone's dead!!" In the distance, a woman from the Lei family let out a trembling voice, and then began to scream. The shrill cry echoed in the nest.

Someone else shouted in Qilu dialect: "Quick! Help! He's buried down there! Someone come and give me a hand!"

Pei Nai and Gu Jinheng immediately jumped over, landed on the platform, and confirmed the casualties.

Soldiers lifted or pried up the boulders and dragged out those trapped underneath.

Several injured people lay on their backs on the ground, and the people around them hurriedly helped them stop the bleeding and treat their wounds.

"We have three companions trapped in another passage. Could you please help rescue them?" Lei Xirui came over with an anxious look on her face.

Gu Jinheng glanced in the direction she said, then retracted his gaze and said, "No need, they are no longer breathing."

Lei Xirui was stunned for a moment, then reacted and realized that Gu Jinheng had used his divine energy to find out the life and death of those three people.

There was no need for Gu Jinheng to lie to them.

Although she felt uncomfortable, she faced the result calmly.

But a family member of a victim next to her could not accept it. The girl shook her head in disbelief, cried loudly, and was so emotional that she was hugged by Lei Xirui.

Five soldiers and three members of the Lei family were slightly injured.

A member of the Lei family and a Qilu guard were seriously injured. The Qilu guard suffered internal injuries to his lungs and even vomited blood.

Gu Jinheng walked over and used the Dandao divine Qi to check the internal conditions of their bodies. He pressed a few acupoints and used Qi to adjust their meridians and blood vessels to suppress the damage and bleeding of their internal organs.

He told Lei Xirui about several kinds of medicine.

Lei Xirui immediately went to get it and fed it to the two seriously injured people.

Pei Nai said to the two people on the ground: "Hold on, you must get out alive with us."

The seriously injured man from the Lei family had completely lost his strength and was a little confused, but the other Qilu guard actually nodded at her in extreme pain.

Pei Nai admired the obedience and courage of the Qilu soldiers. She sighed and turned to look at Da Xian.

Da Xi'an and Han Ruize were also standing nearby, and Pei Nai asked, "Are you injured?"

"No, where is Mingzhi?" Daxian asked her back.

Pei Nai shook his head and looked at Han Ruize again.

He looked back at Pei Nai, and with a simple look he told her that everything was fine.

Han Ruize began to analyze the situation: "I just checked and found that there was a hidden hole in the stone wall. The explosives were buried deep inside and filled, so they were not discovered before. But what caused the explosion?"

"Lei Laiong pressed a mechanism under a herb plantation pot. Our people didn't notice it when they were moving it and accidentally touched the mechanism, which directly ignited the explosives in the nearest passage. He was also killed on the spot." Lei Xirui pointed out the location where the mechanism was buried to everyone.

Pei Nai frowned and said, "Under the planting pots? Has this mechanism existed before?" "These planting pots were often moved in the past, so it can't be an old mechanism. It must be something that Lei Laiong prepared specifically for us after we betrayed him, because only the Lei family would care about these herbs." Lei Xirui had already determined the cause of the explosion and said with certainty.

Pei Nai reacted, "Is he going to trap you guys here to death?"

"I'm sorry, the internal disputes within the Lei family have implicated you." Lei Xirui's face turned a little pale.

"It's already like this, let's find a way out first." Pei Nai waved his hand, looked at Gu Jinheng again, and asked: "Did the explosion you heard affect the several nests we came from?"

Gu Jinheng guessed, "At least five."

"Has the passage we came here collapsed?" Han Ruize asked.

"Yes." Gu Jinheng nodded, "Not only that, other passages were not spared either."

Lei Xirui's face turned pale and she said, "He has blocked all the ways out."

"The Pei army is right at the entrance and must have heard the explosion. Should we wait here for the army's rescue?" Da Xi Shangle speculated on the feasibility.

She was in a good mood. She had been with Pei Nai and the others and had seen all kinds of storms, so she was not panicking about this matter.

Pei Nai shook his head. "The road is completely destroyed. By the time they dig through it, we'll starve to death here."

Daxian also agreed with Pei Nai's idea, "We can't wait, we have to find a way out ourselves, and no one knows what else Leilaiong has prepared. There are too many variables, so it's best to leave as soon as possible."

He pointed to the only passage in the eighth nest that had not been blown up, and asked Lei Xirui, "Where does it lead to?"

"It is also a nest where we store herbs. There are no monsters or other abnormalities." Lei Xirui replied.

Someone next to Lei Xirui reminded her of something.

Pei Nai didn't hear clearly, but Lei Xirui's expression changed suddenly.

Lei Xirui took a deep breath and said, "That nest is connected to an almost closed large nest, which holds the giant tentacle bone spur monster cultivated by Lei Laiweng."

"A giant tentacle bone spur monster?!" Pei Nai was surprised.

Many of the descriptive words are comparable to her title of Supreme and Unrivaled Divine and Martial Lady.

Lei Xirui nodded. "When he found this monster inside the meteorite, it was only the size of a fist. Its lower part was a bit like an octopus, but its tentacles were covered with sharp bone spurs. Its head was also very deformed, twisted and pitted, and looked like nothing."

Her words made many people's hair stand on end.

"He raised it for a while, but the monster just grew steadily, at most half an arm's length, and then stopped growing. That was until he injected poison into the monster's body, and the monster grew dozens of times larger almost overnight."

Pei Nai's eyes gradually widened as Lei Xirui explained.

Even though she had seen many strange things, she could never have imagined that Lei Laiong would be so cruel.

He even spared no effort to kill the monsters native to the meteorite?

Lei Xirui continued, "We felt that this monster was out of control, and even the custom-made extra-large iron cage could no longer contain it, so we proposed to Lei Laiweng to kill it, and Lei Laiweng agreed."

"and then?"

Pei Nai was "concerned" about its life or death. After all, it was very likely that it was jumping around outside the two nests, and it was hard not to worry.

Lei Xirui replied to Pei Nai: "This monster's body is hard and tough, and it is difficult to hurt it with swords and knives. Moreover, after its body is lost, it can regenerate within a few days. We fed it a deadly poison, poured corrosive water on it, and even poured bone-melting water into its wounds. At that time, most of its body had been melted, but..."

Her word "but" made Pei Nai and others tremble.

"Before we could confirm its death, the Wu tribe entered a state of war readiness, and we were forced to leave by Lei Laiweng and the Wu army." Lei Xirui finally finished telling what had happened before.

Da Xi Shang Le exclaimed: "So it's possible that it's still alive?!"
