Chapter 49 Croak! Save people!
quack!
The vicious webbed hand slammed down hard on the black hand that was attacking!
"boom!"
Gravel flew everywhere, and dust billowed.
But even more sinister forces continued their relentless attacks!
These black hands are harder than stone, just like steel!
Fang Yuan leaped up and slammed his body heavily onto the ground, crushing several black hands into a bloody pulp.
But he did not feel relieved.
Because more ghostly hands are emerging from the walls, ceilings, and even the cracks in the floor tiles from all directions.
They are like weeds after a spring rain, they grow back after being cut down, endless, dense and swarming, with a nauseating stench!
quack!
Endless!
Fang Yuan was anxious. Although he was thick-skinned and had mastered the seventh level of the "Mountain-Shaking Strength" technique, these ghostly hands could only leave a few white marks or shallow corrosive traces on his body, and could not break through his defenses at all.
But he wasn't fighting alone.
There's also Nan Nan at Zuixianlou, many martial arts school disciples, and Chen Tieshan.
At this moment... Chen Tieshan was in a daze!
He was completely stunned!
No, a toad fighting against something eerie?!
He couldn't understand at all when he ate the mushrooms!
But while he was lost in thought, the black ghost hand was not!
In the instant Chen Tieshan was stunned, several dark, ghostly hands silently emerged from the shadows at his feet, their sharp nails aimed straight for his ankles and knees, intending to cripple his mobility!
Chen Tieshan was still shocked by the absurd reality and was completely unaware of the danger beneath his feet.
"careful--!!"
Damn it! What a waste of time to just stand there spacing out at a time like this!
He's supposed to be the head of a martial arts school, how can he be so useless!
Fang Yuan cursed inwardly, but still chose to save the person!
If he doesn't save Chen Tieshan and tries to fight this strange thing alone, it will be difficult for him to lead Nannan, Lu Feng and the others out of this building!
Besides, he had just barged in and had no idea where Nannan was!
Fang Yuan's roar was like thunder, and his movements were as fast as lightning!
The massive, dark green shadow crashed to the ground, crushing the ghostly hands that had tried to ambush Chen Tieshan into a bloody pulp. The blue bricks on the ground shattered instantly, sending fragments of stone flying that stung Chen Tieshan's legs.
Chen Tieshan suddenly realized what was happening and jumped back, his back instantly soaked with cold sweat.
"Thank you so much..."
He looked at the giant frog in front of him, which had its back to him and was like a mountain of flesh blocking countless black hands for him, and his throat went dry.
Wow...what a huge toad...
"Quack! Stop staring blankly!"
"Quick, save them! Where are the people who came with you?! Find them and bring them out! I'll hold this guy off!"
Upon hearing the words "save people," Chen Tieshan shuddered and glanced at the group of people who were still lying motionless on the ground not far away.
Yes, save people!
Chen Tieshan took a deep breath and stopped wondering why a toad was more rational, clear-headed, calm, and even more capable of fighting than him!
What he needs to do now is save lives!
Hurry up and move those unconscious guys out of here!
Lu Feng, Nan Nan, and the dozen or so disciples remaining in his martial arts school...
Although the Black Hand has not yet chosen them as its targets, if they are not rescued quickly, these people will soon be torn to pieces by these ghostly hands!
"clear!"
Chen Tieshan roared, forcibly suppressing his horror at the "talking toad," his bloodlust as the master of the hall was ignited.
He gathered his inner energy, quickly picked up a table leg from the ground, casually used it as a weapon, and chopped off a ghostly hand blocking his way. Then he rushed towards the pile of unconscious people.
However, the strange occurrences did not grant him his wish.
"roar--"
Just as Chen Tieshan was about to touch the disciples, two withered corpses that were lying on the ground suddenly stood up straight!
Those are... Wang Daniu and Lao Li!
Maggots wriggled in their empty eye sockets, their mouths were wide open, revealing sharp fangs, and they let out inhuman roars as they pounced on Chen Tieshan from the left and right!
"Big Niu?! Old Li?!"
Fuck him!
Even though Chen Tieshan had expected this, his hand still stiffened abruptly.
That's his apprentice! The apprentice he was just thinking of taking out for a nice meal!
Even if he had been dead for a long time, even if what happened today might have been caused by the deaths of these two disciples, even if he had turned into this ghostly figure, his familiar clothes and outline still made it impossible for him to kill him.
That's his own apprentice!
His apprentice, with whom he had spent three years of his life! Even if he were a dog, he couldn't bring himself to kill him!
"Pfft!"
In that instant of hesitation, Wang Daniu's dried corpse had already pounced on him, its withered, hook-like fingers gripping Chen Tieshan's shoulder and tearing off a chunk of flesh!
"Ugh!"
Chen Tieshan cried out in pain, staggered backward, his eyes filled with agony and struggle, and subconsciously swung the table leg hard at the guy's head.
Two blows and his brains were smashed out, splattering onto his face.
This moment caught Chen Tieshan off guard.
Meanwhile, Old Li from the other side also rushed forward.
quack!
waste!
Fang Yuan caught a glimpse of this scene out of the corner of his eye, and was so angry that he almost choked on his own breath.
What time is it and they're still putting on a melodramatic show?
Those are corpses! They're puppets being manipulated!
A person is dead, that's it! Why hesitate so much?! Are you the kind of person who drags everyone down in American zombie movies?!
"Croak—!!!"
Fang Yuan suddenly pushed off the ground, his massive body like an out-of-control chariot, smashing through all the ghost hands in his path and instantly appearing beside Chen Tieshan.
In mid-air, Fang Yuan's muscles bulged, and he swung his palm down fiercely! The power of the seventh level of the [Mountain Shaking Force] was unleashed without reservation!
boom!
Buddha's Frog Paw!
A powerful slap landed hard on Wang Daniu's dried corpse, which was missing half its head but was still trying to tear at Chen Tieshan.
The dried corpse was as if it had been hit head-on by a battering ram; its upper body exploded, turning into countless bones and black ash.
Fang Yuan landed, his massive foot crushing another lunging corpse of Old Li Qian. He stared intently at Chen Tieshan, his voice icy and chilling:
"Quack! Are you fucking asking for it?!"
"Those who are already dead are already dead! Quickly revive the ones who are still alive!"
"Damn it! I'm not your nanny!"
Chen Tieshan shuddered, looking at the black ash covering the ground. He took a deep breath, replaced by a resolute and ruthless expression.
"I...I understand!"
Chen Tieshan gritted his teeth, wiped the blood from his face, and said, "Thank you... Brother Frog!"
"Quack. Stop talking nonsense, guard the ground! Wake up!"
"knew!"
……
…………
where is this?
Nan Nan felt a terrible headache.
It was as if a mischievous little person was banging a gong on her ear, the buzzing sound penetrating her brain and shaking away all her drowsiness.
"It's so noisy..."
Nan Nan rubbed her eyes sleepily, muttering to herself.
She remembered... Uncle Chen said he would take everyone out for a delicious meal and treat everyone to a meal!
But why doesn't it smell like food?
Instead, there was a... stench like a dead rat rotting in a ditch?
Nan Nan struggled to open her eyelids.
What I saw was neither warm sunshine nor a table laden with delicious food.
Instead, it was a dim, distorted, nightmare-like dark red.
"Click...click..."
A strange sound was right next to my ear.
Nan Nan subconsciously lowered her head.
The next second, the little girl's blood seemed to freeze.
A dark, withered hand, with nails like sharp iron hooks, reached out from a crack in the floor and gripped her ankle tightly!
That hand was as cold as a block of iron frozen in an ice cellar for a hundred years; the biting chill seeped through the shoes and socks and went straight into the bones.
"ah--!!!"
Nan Nan let out a terrified scream and instinctively tried to pull her foot back.
But that black hand was incredibly strong, like an iron clamp, gripping her tightly and even trying to drag her into that dark crevice in the ground!
correct!
Internal energy!
Nan Nan slammed her fist down hard on the black hand! But the black hand was incredibly hard, showing no signs of damage whatsoever!
This stunned Nan Nan, and then tears welled up in her eyes.
The little girl had never seen such a scene before, and she was so frightened that she burst into tears, with big tears streaming down her face.
"Help! Second Brother! Little Frog!!"
The surroundings were shadowy, as if countless hands were waving, and figures wearing familiar clothes that were now tattered were swaying.
She's about to be dragged into a crack in the ground!
Just as Nan Nan closed her eyes in despair—
A table leg slammed hard into the black hand.
Chen Tieshan quickly grabbed Nannan and threw her behind Fang Yuan.
Immediately following was a croaking frog!
"Croak!!!"
A familiar, yet more powerful and domineering croak than ever before, exploded overhead!
Then came a gust of wind!
Nan Nan felt a sudden darkness before her eyes, and a small, dark green mountain crashed down in front of her with a loud "boom"! No, it should be said that she landed in front of a frog!
That's a giant frog's webbed hand!
It's a little frog!
No, that's not right, it's a big frog now!
No... that's still not right! Big Frog has its own name! It's called Fang Yuan! It's the Great Sage Equal to Heaven Frog!
Nan Nan immediately became excited!
She knew that her Great Sage Equal to Heaven would come to her rescue!
The frog's legs, as thick as temple pillars and covered with hard, iron-like muscles, were raised high and then fell down in an instant, making the ground seem to jump!
"Splat!"
The terrifying black hand that appeared rapidly on the ground, trying to grab Nan Nan's ankle again, was instantly crushed to pieces along with that section of floorboards by this stomp!
Black liquid splattered, and the ghostly hand instantly turned into a puddle of minced meat.
Nan Nan felt a loosening in her feet, and the terrifying pulling sensation disappeared.
She looked up blankly.
What came into view was a broad, solid, and reassuring dark green silhouette.
That is……
"Little...little frog?"
Nan Nan exclaimed in disbelief.
The giant beast slowly turned its head, revealing its signature wide mouth and its bulging, rectangular pupils that were now burning with raging fury.
It's bigger than before!
His muscles looked like they were built from stacked stones, and the skin on his back was like the hardest armor. Standing there, he was like an invincible gatekeeper!
Fang Yuan lowered his head, glanced at the trembling Nan Nan, exhaled a puff of white breath from his nostrils, and spoke in a hoarse and rough voice:
"Caw! Stop crying! Stand up!"
"Don't embarrass me! Hide behind me!"
Although the voice was as unpleasant as a millstone and the tone was fierce, Nan Nan thought it was the most beautiful voice in the world.
"Little Frog!!"
Nan Nan scrambled to her feet and scrambled behind Fang Yuan, her little hands clutching tightly at the rough skin on his leg as if grasping at the only straw.
Meanwhile, those around them who had just been awakened by Fang Yuan's sound waves also opened their eyes one after another.
Lu Feng was the first to regain consciousness.
He had a background in martial arts, and although the croaking of the frog made him dizzy, it also woke him up from his unconsciousness!
He sprang to his feet, placed his hand on the air in a defensive stance, and shouted sharply, "Who goes there?!"
But he was quickly stunned.
Because he witnessed a scene that shattered his worldview.
That's... Nan Nan?
Nan Nan was huddled behind a... monster?
No, that's not right.
That monster...
That enormous, dark green beast, over half a meter tall, with bulging muscles, shattered a hard, ghostly hand with a single stomp, and was roaring at the bizarre creatures filling the room…
The more I look at it, the more it looks like...that frog?!
Yes, it's Nan Nan's frog...
Is that frog really that ferocious and strong now?
Is this...is this still a frog?!
How is that possible?!
"Little...Little Frog?!" Lu Feng's voice trembled, even cracking.
He had seen what Fang Yuan looked like after he grew up, when he was at home.
But back then, Fang Yuan was just squatting on the table eating roast chicken. Although it was big, it wasn't this... ferocious!
"Oh my god!"
Nearby, several martial arts school disciples who had just woken up were so frightened that they wet themselves.
When they opened their eyes, the first thing they saw was a scene of carnage and ghostly hands, which terrified them. Then, they saw the giant frog displaying its power.
Suddenly, the giant frog stretched out its front claws, its movement as fast as a green lightning bolt!
"Bang!"
A mummified corpse that tried to sneak up from the side was slammed down hard by that giant green claw!
The dried corpse was even harder than the bones of an ordinary person, but under that giant claw, it was like a rotten watermelon, its head was directly slammed into its chest cavity!
Black blood splattered everywhere!
"Quick! Everyone who's awake, get out of here with me! This way!" Chen Tieshan shouted! He ran over quickly, grabbed Nan Nan and Lu Feng's clothes, and threw them outside!
Just as Nan Nan and Lu Feng were thrown out, two more dried corpses got up from the ground and rushed towards Chen Tieshan!
Seeing this, the other disciples dared not delay and quickly ran outside!
But a few were completely terrified and stood frozen in place.
Fang Yuan slapped the dried corpse to death, then turned and roared at the group of terrified people:
"What are you looking at! Haven't you ever seen a frog practicing martial arts?!"
"Anyone who wants to live, get moving! Anyone who dares to hold us back, I'll feed them to these ghost hands first!"
This...this toad is talking?!
She can even swear?!
Some disciples wondered if they had gone mad or were still trapped in a nightmare.
A frog, a frog they usually see everywhere in the fields and even catch to roast and eat, now stands in front of them like a war god, slapping each child to pieces and beating those terrifying monsters to a pulp.
And he even spoke human language and commanded them in battle?
"He's protecting us! Quickly, everyone, listen to Frog's command! Run!" At this moment, Chen Tieshan desperately wished that his disciples could act like human beings, obediently and swiftly running away!
As we all know, not everyone can act like a human being in a crisis!
"This...this really is that...that little girl's pet?" A disciple asked, his teeth chattering, pointing at Fang Yuan.
"..." Chen Tieshan glanced at the disciple, gritting his teeth, but couldn't say a word. Seven or eight dried corpses were chasing him, and he had no time to explain those messy things.
How could such a strong frog possibly be the Lu family's pet!
Are you dreaming?!
Lu Ye of the Lu family, even if he were still alive, would only possess superficial strength! He'd be on par with me!
"Get out of here!" Chen Tieshan cursed angrily, and quickly threw the disciple outside.
"Stop talking nonsense!"
Lu Feng, who was outside the building, also heard those words, but he was a man of many experiences. He bit his tongue hard and forced himself to calm down.
No matter how outrageous this frog becomes, at least it's an ally! It's here to save them!
"Listen to it! I've seen it in the tree; it's the legendary beast that saves all living beings!!"
Lu Feng roared, giving Fang Yuan a grand title in an attempt to bolster morale, "Everyone pick up your weapons! Follow the divine beast's commands! Those who don't want to die, run for your lives! Hurry!!"
"A god...a divine beast?!"
Upon hearing those two words, the disciples' fear lessened slightly, replaced by a hope of escaping their predicament.
If it's a mythical beast... then its strength and ability to talk make sense!
"The mythical beast has come to our rescue!"
"Run!"
The instinct for survival overcame their fear, and the group of young martial artists scrambled to their feet, grabbed anything they could use, and roared as they fled.
Fang Yuan ignored the term "divine beast".
All he wants now is to tear this dilapidated building down!
but……
Inside the building, the gaunt figure stood up again.
Countless eyes on the ground glared at everyone at the same time.
"A mythical beast...? Why haven't I... seen it in any books...? What exactly are you?"
A hoarse, somber voice asked slowly.
The next moment...
The scene changed in an instant...
