Volume 2 Corpse Transformation Witch Chu Chapter 149 The Calm Before the Storm
"You, no, do you smell anything?" one soldier sniffed his nose and said to his companion, "like the smell of osmanthus." ”
"You don't think about women going crazy, do you?" the companion laughed, "Thinking about the newly widowed sister Osmanthus in the village?"
"I know this! Sister Osmanthus also brought food to Xiaoding before. Another companion came over and said, "Sister Osmanthus always has a faint fragrance of osmanthus on her body, but I don't know what is going on with smoke." ”
"It seems that there is because I have been making osmanthus cakes for dignitaries. The companion said yes, and smiled a little mockingly, "But that's what those dignitaries are like that now." ”
"No, no, no, I said that the women in black were brought by the king, jumped off the wall, and then left. Xiao Ding explained.
"Hahahaha, it's you who still say that you don't think about women!" the companion smiled, yes, and then smashed his mouth and said yes, "But then again, those dozen women are women who are really strong enough and do not lose the king." ”
"Oh, don't worry about it, it's that group of women, but the strong ones who can cut zombies are us, and we still have to be honest soldiers. The other companion said, yes, he sniffed his nose, and said strangely, "I guess I smell something, is there a peony?"
"Peony?" the second soldier sniffed vigorously but still nothing, smelled yes, and said helplessly, "Maybe my nose is broken." ”
Xiao Ding also sniffed his nose and said, "I can only smell the fragrance of osmanthus flowers." ”

Pengcheng is a city that is not very well-known and even has a bit of a rustic name.
But if you set its timeline back a few hundred years, everyone will be familiar with it.
Pengcheng was renamed by Cao Cao during the Three Kingdoms period, and was officially called Xuzhou City.
And Xuzhou is a place where soldiers have fought since ancient times.
It is located at the junction of the north and south, is the key to the north, is also the gateway to the south, is "the Huaihai in the east, the Central Plains in the west, the Jianghuai in the south, and the Qilu in the north", is its unique geographical location, is to make Xuzhou, "the thoroughfare of the five provinces".
Although Pengcheng is not yet the current Pengcheng, it has become a transportation hub in China like Xuzhou in later generations, and a large number of light and heavy industrial factories have been built.
But its very special location makes it still very important.
Especially in the Xia and Shang periods, it was the great Peng clan in Pengcheng, and the country was extremely prosperous, and for a time it even became one of the five hegemons.
The founder of the Great Peng Kingdom is Peng Zu, who is said to have lived for 800 years and is the founder of Taoism who created diet and qigong health.
As such an important military place, Pengcheng does not belong to anyone's fiefdom, it is only, the city guard is, and its city guard is one of the three major families, the Jing clan, the patriarch is Jingyang.
But in a situation like the present, it is not an exaggeration to say that he has a private fiefdom in Jingyang.
"Is this Peng Zu meat?" Jing Yang opened the sandalwood box in front of him and asked in a strange tone.
There is one inside the sandalwood box, some things like brown oyster mushrooms, there is a faint woody aroma inside, it is almost exactly the same as the Ganoderma lucidum I used to eat, and some of it looks like medicinal herbs, anyway, it doesn't look like human flesh.
"Yes, this is Peng Zu's meat. The man with a face of Chinese characters nodded and said, "When Peng Zu was alive, his woody fragrance was very strange. ”
This man is called Peng Yue, and he is a descendant of Peng Zu.
Pengcheng was originally annexed by the Song state, but was later captured by the Chu state.
Originally, the Peng family, which had been through several wars, should have been exterminated a long time ago, but the size was more or less a nobleman, and the ancestors were also quite prestigious, so the successive rulers did not have it, and it was too difficult.
And the Peng family itself is also quite well-behaved, in addition to the basic plate of 100 acres of land, it is the tax that should be paid, the tax should be paid, the supply should be provided, the army should be enlisted, and the army should be joined, as long as there is no harm to the fundamental requirements, they can all meet it, and it can be called a good civilian in the Chu country.
"Does this meat look so much like oyster mushrooms?" said Shoshe, looking at it a little strangely.
It is said that Peng Zu was invulnerable to fire and water back then, just like a piece of thousand-year-old ironwood, which was tough and hard. Peng Yue said, "After Peng Zu passed away, it was Peng Zu's body that was softened and cut." ”
"That'...... Can you live forever if you eat it?" Jingyang asked.
"Back then, the descendants of the unscrupulous people divided and ate Peng Zu, and everyone thought that Peng Zu's longevity was to eat Peng Zu's meat, and they could also live a long life, but they didn't know that Peng Zu meat was just a high-grade medicinal material. ”
Peng Yue didn't, said yes or no, and said no to trigger the infinite blind thinking of the two.

Just when Jumuyi was constantly being built, it was the arrival of a wave of people who injected a new vitality into the entire Jumuyi, and it was the people of the Ivy Spring Clinic who had fled on the first night.
, a dozen strong men and twenty doctors and medicine women are undoubtedly an extremely exciting group for Jumuyi, what is more popular than doctors.
In addition, the first group of villagers to evacuate from Jumuyi also came to Jumuyi, and Wang Sheng's father was Wang Lihu.
Originally, there should have been an extremely touching scene of a reunion after a long absence, but it is a pity that this kind of scene did not appear.
As soon as Wang Orion arrived at Jumuyi, after being interrogated, he went straight to the Zhisho and found the Changgong of Yi.
"Mr. Gong Lose, you should be familiar with this disaster, right?"
"I don't understand what you're saying. ”
"What did you do in that war that almost destroyed the country, and you still don't know in your own heart?"
"What did you do?" the public loser squad frowned, "The chariot I made saved the entire Chu State!"
"Is this really the case? Did you save the Chu State without sacrificing anyone?!"
"Are you crazy? What are you talking about?"
"Do you remember that village? What a peaceful and industrious village, where men hunt and women plough the land, but because they are closer to the battlefield, such a ridiculous reason that they all died on the battlefield!"
"Oh, yes, that's a pity. I would advise the king not to be a miscellaneous soldier of combat effectiveness when recruiting soldiers. ”
"Don't you blame yourself a little?!"
"You're out of shape, it's Orion, I'm not, questioning my qualifications is yes, and I don't know what you're questioning. ”
"Sorry...... I'm rude. ”

, Ouyang, who has tasted the sweetness of modern science and technology, naturally can't stop here.
Taking advantage of the abundance of mountains and mineral resources, with the help of Deochis, he frantically deployed the cement, and then led the people to start the crazy infrastructure construction.
Not only was the original wooden wall reinforced and expanded with cement, but the platform and wall thickness became more spacious and taller, and several surrounding fields and three small lakes were also enclosed, and pillboxes and beacon towers were set up.
If a large number of zombie invasions are the first to know and prepare in time through these outposts.
And this time, the cement infrastructure is rectangular wood, and the twelve gates that were originally left for passage are now only four.
These four city gates were also re-pasted with cement, and the city gates were also equipped with broken dragon stones and a large number of heavy blockages.
On weekdays, there are also such city gates that are tightly closed, but now zombies wander outside the city walls twenty-four hours a day, even if they are open, they can't get out, and if they go out, they are equivalent to death, and it is better to be closed, which is more reassuring.
Of course, Ouyang didn't have the formula for cement, and the main reason for staying was because he didn't figure it out himself.
What's left? A bunch of unintelligible chemical equations?
The entire industrial process has long been handed over to Daiochis, and the production is some very important steps in it, as well as the technical requirements, there are Daiochis, and there are fire skills, and electric shock skills are difficult for the people of this era to achieve.
In short, under the miraculous cement process, the entire Jumuyi has really turned into an iron bucket, looking at the high city wall and the twelve flamethrowers on the city wall that can spew scorching flames, the hearts of every resident of Jumuyi are filled with extremely strong self-confidence.
Except for the lockdown, life is no different on weekdays. Maybe that's it...... Maybe they can survive the monsters outside, but it's still unknown?
After all, if all the people outside the walls died, it was their number that would never increase.
"What?Childe, this is too dangerous, isn't it?!"
Just when all the people of Jumu-eup were in a thriving atmosphere, there was a violent dispute in the administrative center of Jumu-eup.
The main reason is that Xiong Zhong wants to go to Pengcheng through layers of corpses when the situation is very good, and he wants to take over the defense work of Pengcheng.
"The people of Pengcheng also have the people of Chu State, although the defense work of Jumuyi is now foolproof, but we can't just stop there. The entire Chu State is as many people as we can save. Kumanaka said in a firm tone, "Not only that...... If I can, I still want to go to Yingdu to see my father for the last time!"
"You still want to see the king?!This matter is too dangerous, is it not okay, I will never agree!" Gongsun Chao continued to reject Xiong Zhong's proposal.
"Zi Chao is this matter, it is really necessary!" Xiong Zhong's tone revealed a firmness in his indifferent tone, and he said, "Whether it is for the Chu State, or for the sake of my father, I have to go to Yingdu." ”
"Childe!" Gongsun Chao still wanted to persuade him again, but he also understood that Xiongzhong's character was, so he changed his words and said, "Then please be sure to take me." ”
"Take you?" Xiong Zhong was stunned for a moment.
"Your sword skills are terrible, yes"
"Uh......" Xiong Zhong looked around a little embarrassed, and found that everyone had a "true" expression, so he could only nod helplessly, "Okay, yes, if I go to Yingdu, I will definitely take you." ”
"The matter of Yingdu can only be done after this disaster has subsided a little, as for Pengcheng......" the public loss class said and muttered for a moment, and looked at his students, "It is true that you can't just let it go, after all, this city is indeed too big." ”
"Among all of you present, the identity is enough to take over the defense of a city, it should be only, me, right?"
