Prehistoric: The female saint Shiji, brilliant and talented

"Is it a demon clan?"

Just as Hou Yi was thinking about this, a roar came from the sea of ​​fire in front of him: "Damn little reptiles, I will remember your breath."

"Not good." Houyi's face changed drastically.

As expected, dozens of fully armed humanoid monsters walked out of the flames. They had hideous looks and skin as red as charcoal. They looked like monsters walking out of magma, which was frightening and terrifying.

"Leave this to us, and you retreat to the tribe." The leader shouted.

"But these things are too strange. I don't know what they are." Houyi hesitated.

He had no fear of monsters, but these strange creatures were very bizarre and hard to guard against.

"Put aside your worries. We will kill all these monsters soon. Please leave quickly." The leader ordered.

Houyi was silent for a while, but finally nodded and led the human warriors away.

As Hou Yi and the others left, the leader immediately gave the order: "Go."

Dozens of fully armed demons launched the attack at the same time. In an instant, the wind and clouds changed, the sky became dark, and the whole sky was filled with terrifying fireballs and lightning and thunder.

The monster was already dying and could not withstand such a violent attack. It turned into ashes and disappeared in just a moment.

At this time, Houyi and others had returned to the human tribe and quickly organized defensive measures.

"Brother Houyi, what should we do now?" asked the human warrior.

"The enemy's strength is much stronger than we imagined. We must notify the chief immediately." Houyi said seriously.

Houyi took out the jade slip and crushed it, then told the chief through the talisman that the human race was under attack and requested support.

Afterwards, Houyi led his men to guard the tribe and wait for reinforcements.

However, not long after, the human tribe came under fierce attack again.

This time the force was even more fierce, and although the human warriors tried their best to resist, they were still defeated.

"Brother Houyi, do you have any other plan?" the human warrior asked with a wry smile.

Houyi gritted his teeth and clenched his fists.

He also knew that his remaining fighting power was not enough to withstand this wave of attacks, and he would not even be defeated within three minutes, so he had to think of a way to break through.

Suddenly, Houyi's eyes lit up and he thought of a solution.

"The invaders this time are demons. Since they are good at using fire magic, why don't we guide the rain to extinguish their flames?"

"Brother Hou Yi, what do you mean?"

"I heard that there are many mysterious rains in the wild south. If we can use the rain they bring, we may be able to resist these monsters." Houyi said affirmatively.

These words made everyone suddenly realize.

"Brother Houyi is indeed very smart. I will go find someone to borrow rain water now." Someone said excitedly, and then left in a hurry.

"You continue to resist these monsters, and I will be responsible for getting the water down." Houyi instructed the human warriors and rushed towards the river of the tribe.

Soon, he found villagers, borrowed hundreds of buckets of rainwater, and then began to pour it down.

"Haha, now let me see why you are still so arrogant." Houyi couldn't help laughing when he saw the flames gradually die out.

At this moment, he suddenly noticed that several black stones had rolled down onto the riverbed from the bushes on the river bank.

"Huh? What is this?" Houyi squatted down and picked up the stone in confusion, looking at it carefully.

"These seem to be the tears of a demon?" Houyi's pupils shrank.

"How could it fall here? Could it be that a great war had taken place here?" Houyi murmured to himself in a low voice.

He remembered that there were many dangerous forbidden areas and forests in the south.

Some places are filled with miasma, some are shrouded in poisonous fog all year round, and some are filled with unknown terrifying creatures.

There are many ferocious creatures living here, the most powerful of which is said to have strength comparable to that of an Immortal King, and there are even more powerful ones.

And the tears of these creatures are their tears.

"Could it be that these monsters transformed because they absorbed these tears?" Houyi guessed.

"Brother Houyi, come and see." Just as Houyi was thinking, the shouts of human warriors came from afar.

"What's the matter?" Houyi walked over.

"These monsters died because of the evaporation of their tears." The human warrior said excitedly.

"What? They died because their tears evaporated?" Houyi was shocked.

At this time, Houyi observed the corpses of the demons again and found that, as he expected, the demons did die because of their tears.

"Do tears have any special effects?" Houyi couldn't help asking.

"It is rumored that there are many treasures in this world, and tears are two of them." The human warrior replied.

"So that's how it is." Houyi suddenly realized.

“Although tears are precious, they evaporate easily,” said the human warrior.

"Oh?"

"Because sometimes, tears can be contaminated by something special and become poison, so we need to prepare a lot of clean water." The human warrior explained.

Houyi immediately understood that the monsters evolved because they fed on tears, but now he didn't have to worry about this problem.

Because Houyi found a few drops of crystal clear liquid deep at the bottom of the river, which contained extremely powerful energy.

Moreover, the energy contained in these tears exceeds what they possess, which allows them to completely rely on their tears to resist the attacks of the demons.

"Brother Houyi, are you saying that these tears can help us deal with those monsters?" the human warrior asked in surprise.

"Well, I'll give it a try."

Houyi nodded and said.

Houyi stretched his hand towards the river and gently touched the water, and immediately he felt his palm being burned.

"Hiss." Houyi took a breath of cold air.

"Why is the temperature of this river water so high?" Houyi said with a frown.

"I heard that this river is a holy river that has been passed down from ancient times. It gushes out a large amount of holy light every spring, summer, autumn and winter. Therefore, this river is also called the Holy River. The temperature of the river water is very high, and even martial arts masters like us can hardly bear it." said the human warrior.

"What should I do? The temperature is so high that I can't go down to the river to get water." Houyi said helplessly.

"That's right, the temperature of this river is too high, we can't get close at all." The human warrior sighed.

At this time, someone else spoke up, "Why don't we fill up this river? The mountain is about to collapse anyway, so we might as well destroy it completely."

This person's proposal immediately aroused everyone's approval, and they all expressed their willingness to fill the river.

So, everyone took action and started digging the riverbed.

Houyi also participated in it, but he seldom dug the soil, and was always washed away by the river. He almost drowned several times. Fortunately, he knew how to escape.

In this way, with the efforts of everyone, the width of the entire river doubled.

"The river is too turbulent and cannot irrigate farmland," someone complained. "Why not cover the river surface with mud to stop the water from rushing out?" someone suggested.

So, people began to carry mud and then build river embankments until the embankments formed thick dams so that the river water would not overflow.

After doing all this, it was already night.

Houyi stood on the river bank and enjoyed the breeze, his mind still filled with the tears at the bottom of the river, those few crystal clear tears.

"I must find a way to go down to the river to get those tears, otherwise I will not be able to save the villagers." Houyi thought.

"Brother Houyi, it's getting late, you should go to bed early." At this time, the human warrior advised.

Hou Yi shook his head and said, "Let your guard down. I will go down to the river alone to look for tears."

After saying that, Houyi jumped into the river and swam down along the riverbed at a very fast speed.

Soon, Houyi arrived at the center of the riverbed.

At this moment, he saw three crystal clear tears lying there.

"I finally found you." Houyi was overjoyed and immediately grabbed two of the drops.

Suddenly, something strange happened. The other two tears suddenly exploded. The surging energy burst out instantly and shattered the surrounding riverbed.

Houyi was caught off guard and suffered severe injuries. He vomited blood on the spot and his face turned extremely pale.

"Is this the legendary poison?" Houyi wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and looked at the surging tears in front of him.

At this moment, the tears gathered into a sea, as if to drown the earth, with incredible power.

The noise was deafening, shocking the soul and making people tremble all over.

This terrifying force swept in all directions, causing the earth to shake violently, the river water to surge and roar, and hit the river bank like a tide, which was terrifying.

"Such a powerful pressure, is there a real powerful enemy coming to attack us?" Everyone was panicked and terrified. This scene was too horrifying and creepy.

Hou Yi clenched his teeth, his eyes were red and flashing with madness, he decided to take the risk.

Boom!
The waves were surging, the river was raging, and it was extremely ferocious, raising thousands of feet high waves, rushing towards the shore like thousands of horses galloping.

The monsters roared in a deafening voice; they were extremely angry.

Watching those weak ants dare to blaspheme them is an unforgivable crime.

"Retreat quickly, this is a monster." Everyone exclaimed and retreated quickly.

Houyi also stepped back because he already knew that these were those monsters, and this was not the place where they were originally born.

The monster was very fast and caught up with everyone in the blink of an eye. It then launched a horrific attack. Blood and flesh flew everywhere and its screams resounded through the sky, shocking the crowd.

Upon seeing this, Houyi took out his Sun-Shooting Bow without hesitation, put arrows on the bowstring, and shot nine magical arrows, piercing through the monsters.

In an instant, blood rained down and those powerful monsters were shot to death.

"Thank you for saving us." At this time, everyone ran over to thank Houyi.

"It's just a piece of cake." Houyi said with a faint smile.

If Houyi had not taken action just now, I'm afraid everyone would have been killed by the monster's claws.

After everyone left, more people came one after another. After seeing Houyi's fighting power, they no longer had any doubts and agreed with Houyi's words.

These were the leaders of nearby tribes. They brought the elites of their tribes to Houyi's tribe to surrender, hoping to get asylum.

"Are these your people?" Houyi pointed at the densely packed figures in the distance.

"Yes, they are all my children, and I want to bring them to you." said the human leader.

"My tribe is very poor and cannot support so many people," said Houyi.

The human leader fell silent after hearing this, he knew that Houyi was telling the truth.

The human tribe is indeed too poor. Not only can it not feed them, but it will also be a burden to the tribe.

"Brother Houyi, can you take me in?" Suddenly, someone else spoke up. It was a human warrior who hoped to join Houyi's tribe.

"Of course you are welcome." Houyi said happily. With so many strong men joining, his tribe will definitely become much stronger.

Afterwards, the human tribe became more lively and continued to recruit new members. There were more and more human warriors, and finally the number reached hundreds, with even more human warriors on the way.

During this period, the tribe's population grew rapidly, expanding from the original fifty or sixty households to more than two hundred households, becoming increasingly larger.

The human leader felt incredible. He thought it would take many years to recover his strength, but now such an effect could be achieved in a short time, which made him very excited.

"Brother Houyi, this time it's all thanks to you. If it weren't for your help, our tribe would probably have to continue to suffer from hunger and cold."

The human leader sighed and said that during this period of time, he deeply realized the importance of food, especially in the end times, food was too precious.

Hou Yi said calmly: "I once heard my master say that when you encounter difficulties, only faith can persist and you can overcome difficulties and resolve crises."

The human leader nodded. What Houyi said was true. If one did not even have a strong will, then one would be unable to accomplish anything and would be doomed to be eliminated.

"I'm sorry, it's us who have implicated you and your tribe." The human leader apologized.

"Since you have chosen to join me, you are my friends. There is no need to talk about involving each other as friends." Houyi said with a smile.

The human leader showed a simple smile. Although Houyi was young, he was very kind and did not care about their mistakes.

"These are the fish we caught from the river. You can eat them." The human leader took out a variety of fish and handed them to Houyi.

"Thank you." Houyi said, then he distributed the fish and told the tribesmen to grill them.

"It smells so good!" Everyone wolfed down the food, enjoying the barbecue.

"Huh?" Suddenly, Houyi stopped eating, frowned slightly, and looked at the corpses floating on the river. There were broken limbs and arms scattered all over the ground, which was disgusting.

"What's going on?" asked the human leader puzzledly.

"Someone is invading our tribe." said Houyi.

"That shouldn't be the case. This place is far away from the Holy Land and won't attract anyone's attention at all." The human leader asked in confusion.

Hou Yi said: "I suspect it is directed at me."

"Is someone eyeing your secret treasure?" the human leader guessed.

“No matter who it is, he will have to pay the price.” Hou Yi’s cold eyes flashed.

His secret treasure is his lifeblood. Anyone who covets it will be a fight to the death with him.

"Let's go and see who it is." Houyi led everyone to swim into the river, ready to find out who it was.

There were many corpses floating on the river, some of them were human and some were monsters.

Soon, they reached the bottom of the river and were stunned.

"Oh my God, there are too many bodies, hundreds of them," someone exclaimed.

"They are all human." Houyi pondered. It seemed that his guess was correct. Someone was targeting him.

"There's something strange about this river." Hou Yi frowned. (End of this chapter)
