Chapter 358: A Thousand Miles of Collapse

What Wu Man'er said was true, Zhang Xiaopaw really woke up half an hour later.

When he woke up, his eyes were blank, his eyes were scattered and unfocused, and his expression was in a trance, as if he was asleep, and his mind was blank.

Zhang Xiaopaw was indeed asleep, he felt as if he had slept for several years, and he couldn't remember anything for a while when he woke up.

It wasn't until his eyes gradually became focused, he sat up in his chair, and saw the yellow paper and cinnabar piled on the table in front of him, that he suddenly woke up, and memories poured into his blank brain like a tide.

"How does it feel?"

Wan Qiuqing has been staying in the room without leaving half a step, now Zhang Xiaopaw is the savior of Yancheng, she does not dare to be negligent, she must ensure Zhang Xiaopaw's safety. Seeing that Zhang Xiaopaw woke up with her eyes open, and her eyes gradually regained her strength, she couldn't help but ask with anticipation.

"How long have I slept?!" Zhang Xiaopao did not answer the rhetorical question, his tone was slightly eager, because he felt that he had slept for a long, long time, and he was afraid of delaying things.

"Soon, only half an hour. Wan Qiuqing replied.

"It's only been half an hour?" Zhang Xiaopaw looked puzzled, raised his hand and patted his still somewhat dazed head, and muttered, "How do I feel like I've slept for several years? Is it only half an hour?"

He couldn't help but recall Wu Man'er's eyes in his mind, and he couldn't help but feel a chill down his spine, feeling that those eyes were too terrible. He just stared at it, as if he had been deprived of his mind and soul, only his physical body was left, and he was manipulated by Wu Man'er, and he really fell asleep when he said "sleep", and he still slept deeply, no different from the past when he died.

If Wu Man'er didn't let him sleep, but let him swing a knife to kill himself, or do some other terrible thing, would he do it without thinking?

Thinking about it carefully, Zhang Xiaopaw felt a chill down his spine, and he couldn't help but shiver.

"Do you feel better?" Wan Qiuqing couldn't help but show worry when he saw Zhang Xiaopaw's expression uncertain.

Zhang Xiaopaw shook his head, shook off Wu Man'er's terrible eyes from his mind, and did not rush to answer Wan Qiuqing, but sat upright, picked up a new brush and dipped it in cinnabar, pulled a piece of yellow paper, and concentrated on the pen, all in one go.

Wan Qiuqing looked overjoyed, knowing that Zhang Xiaopaw had been able to control his sadness.

Zhang Xiaopaw looked at the flawless Dao Fu in front of him, and his expression couldn't help but be in a trance. He was amazed to find that the grief in his heart had become flat, it felt like Master had passed away for many years, and the grief had long been diluted by time. Looking at brushes, cinnabar, yellow paper and other items, seeing things and thinking about people, all that comes to mind are warm pasts, and nostalgia is better than sadness.

This made Zhang Xiaopaw feel incredible, and suddenly woke up, and the feeling that he had slept for several years was not just an illusion, but that several years had really passed, and it was his grief that had been washed away by time in his sleep for several years.

True and false, like a dream, made Zhang Xiaopu feel a sense of memory confusion, which was extremely uncomfortable.

It can not only deprive others of their minds and souls, control their physical body, but also change a person's sense of time unconsciously, and a little heavier can make a person's memory completely confused, such a woman makes Zhang Xiaopaw feel scared and frightened.

"This Wu Man'er is terrible!" Zhang Xiaopao couldn't help but sigh.

"It's not easy. Wan Qiuqing nodded in agreement, Xiao Chong, who was in charge of guarding outside the door, was still lying on the ground and sleeping, you must know that Xiao Chong's cultivation is not low, and he actually caught Wu Man'er's way silently, which shows the cleverness of his means.

The two didn't have time to talk about Wu Man'er, Zhang Xiaopaw drew the Dao talisman as quickly as possible, and Wan Qiuqing worked on the side, grinding cinnabar, cleaning up the painted Dao talisman, etc.

After more than half an hour, Zhang Xiaopaw finally recovered almost one-third of the power of the ghost pupil and was exhausted again, and the result was more than 3,000 Dao talismans.

Wan Qiuqing instructed Zhang Xiaopaw to quickly take pills to recuperate, and he sent more than 3,000 Dao talismans to the city and handed them over to the personnel responsible for distributing Dao talismans.

Night has fallen, but saving lives is like fighting fire, and it is urgent.

Lanterns, torches, and torch braziers illuminate the thirty passages as bright as day.

Qi Wuwei saw that the thirty passages were overwhelmed, so he recruited another 180 people and added thirty new passages.

Sixty passages were running together, and more than 3,000 Dao talismans were consumed before the second half of the night. Although more than 60,000 corpse poisons have been expelled, compared to the huge number of infected people, more than 3,000 Dao talismans are still a drop in the bucket.

However, Zhang Xiaopaw's ghost pupil power recovery speed is limited, and he can't rush it.

At one o'clock in the morning, the fire under the city was suddenly extinguished, and the northern ten cities fell into darkness.

Half an hour later, the heavy gates slowly opened, and the blackened army crept into the city under the cover of night.

The main road of the North Ten Cities has been swept away at some point, and the army is lightly armed, galloping along the spacious main road, driving into the North Nine Cities in only a quarter of an hour, and then passing through the North Eighth City, North Seventh, and North Sixth Three Cities, and finally disappearing in the North Five Cities, and when they reappear, they have already arrived in the South Five Cities.

At six o'clock in the morning, the rebels who were encamped in the south of the city began to bury the pot to make rice, and there was meat for today's breakfast, and the soldiers who had not seen oil and water for several days were all around the pot stove, but some of the soldiers with lively minds sighed with sorrow, because they knew that the meat would not be eaten for nothing, and today was afraid that it would be another vicious battle, and their hearts began to feel sad about whether they could survive today.

At half past six o'clock, when they were eating soundly, suddenly their trumpets whimpered and the war drums thundered, but it was not their trumpets and war drums that sounded.

Boom Boom –

A black iron cavalry unit, a red iron cavalry unit, like two angry dragons, from far and near, killed in front of the rebel formation in the blink of an eye, and then rushed into the rebel camp. The pot is overturned and the soup is sprinkled, and the head is rolling.

"Enemy attack!"

"Enemy attack!"

Only then did the rebels react, fleeing in panic and screaming in terror.

They attacked Yancheng for a month, and Yancheng never went out of the city to meet the battle, so that they had already been paralyzed and careless, forgetting that Yancheng could go out of the city to meet the battle in addition to shrinking to defend.

Under the ferocious impact of the black-armored cavalry and the red-armored cavalry, the rebels were unable to organize an effective counterattack at all, and then the king of Zhennan led the cavalry brigade to kill, directly rushing the rebel position into a plate of scattered sand, and could no longer organize a counterattack. Then there is the infantry to kill, sweeping and pushing.

The rebels were defeated and fled for their lives south.

Wei Guangfu scolded Qiu Zhan for not keeping his word while escaping, and clearly said that he would hold on for two more days, but he went out of the city to attack in less than a day, which was extremely shameful.

Xiahou Hongyuan's cheeks were hot, and he pretended not to hear anything. He couldn't help but begin to doubt his father's decision, was the widowed son of the Wei family in front of him really worthy of support? But anyone with a little brain would not say such a childish and ridiculous thing.

Since ancient times, soldiers have never tired of cheating, and there is no courtesy, righteousness and shame on the battlefield, and winning is the king.

In the palatial phoenix, Su Wanying's face was gloomy, and cups, saucers, tea bowls, melons, fruits and pastries were thrown all over the ground by her. Her shawl was disheveled, her clothes were disheveled, and her face was hideous, like madness.

After decades of enduring humiliation and stealing a living, and decades of careful planning, she thought that she was a godsend, and the victory was in her hands, but she was so unwilling to do so.

"Wei Ziyan, you can't die well!" Su Wanying cursed viciously, her back molars creaked, and she wanted to peel Wei Ziyan and eat meat.

She blamed Wei Ziyan for all the failures, if it weren't for Wei Ziyan who killed the battle-hardened General Xiahoulou and let them change their commanders on the spot; if it weren't for Wei Ziyan, who single-handedly killed hundreds of thousands of troops and killed the soldiers' sharpness; if it weren't for Wei Ziyan's destruction of a large number of siege equipment, making them helpless in the face of the towering walls of Yancheng; if it weren't for Wei Ziyan, how could they be defeated?

"Wang Ruoyu, you are a slut, you dare to rob a man in this palace, even if it is a man who is not wanted in this palace, it will not work. Slut, bitch!" Su Wanying finished scolding Wei Ziyan and began to curse Wang Ruoyu again.

The rebels were crushed for thousands of miles, and Su Han led the troops to pursue the victory, and he had the posture of vowing not to give up until the rebels were eliminated.

......

"All of them are crazy!" Zhang Xiaopaw smiled helplessly as he drew the talisman.

When the army sneaked into the city last night, he noticed it at the first time in the city gate tower, and his first reaction at that time was not to be shocked by Qiu Zhan and Su Hanju's way of using troops, but to jump to his feet and scold angrily.

At present, the North Ten Cities and the North Nine Cities are full of infected people, and the army crossing these two cities is simply fooling around, and if one does not get the corpse poison right, it will be transmitted in the army, and it may even bring the corpse poison out of Yancheng, so that the corpse poison will spread throughout the southern border, and it will be out of control.

He wanted to stop it, but how could he stop the torrent of rolling troops, so he could only pray for the favor of the heavens to prevent the corpse poison from spreading to the barracks.

On the second day, Zhang Xiaopu drew a total of more than 9,000 Taoist talismans.

Qi Wuwei bulldozed the houses on both sides of the road and added 60 more passages. One hundred and twenty passages were running at full capacity, and more than nine thousand Dao talismans could not keep up with the consumption. However, the recovery speed of the power of the ghost pupil is limited, and Zhang Xiaopaw can only look at it in his eyes and be anxious in his heart.

I have to say that the pills sent by Wan Qiuqing are really high-grade elixirs, and many pills Zhang Xiaopaw can fill his body with energy by only eating one or two pills.

To be honest, the intermittent cultivation of these two days and one night has not increased the recovery speed of the power of the Ghost Pupil much, but on the contrary, it has increased his Dao and Ghost Second Power a lot, and his cultivation has greatly improved.

However, it was not completely unfruitful in terms of the recovery of the power of the ghost pupil, Zhang Xiaopaw found that the better the quality of the pill he took, the faster the recovery speed of the power of the ghost pupil.

But this discovery made Wan Qiuqing very suspicious, wondering whether Zhang Xiaopaw was taking the opportunity to seek personal gain, and Zhang Xiaopaw naturally resolutely denied it.

Suspicion is suspicion, Wan Qiuqing still sent a higher quality pill.

Seeing Zhang Xiaopaw chewing one every half an hour, just like eating jelly beans, Wan Qiuqing was so distressed that he was dripping blood and secretly shocked.

The two bottles of elixir she brought were real high-grade elixirs, and the spiritual power contained was so strong that she could only take two pills a day at most, and any more would cause too much spiritual power to be refined and absorbed, and finally overflow out of the body and be wasted, and there might even be a danger of dying due to excessive spiritual power.

But Zhang Xiaopaw doesn't seem to be worried about this problem at all, there is a bottomless pit in his body, no matter how much he eats the elixir, he can't fill it, and even if it is filled, it will only be temporary, and it will soon be vacant.

In fact, Wan Qiuqing noticed this situation as early as yesterday, because Zhang Xiaopaw's speed of consuming the pill was so fast that she was dumbfounded, she asked Zhang Xiaopaw, but Zhang Xiaopaw himself couldn't say why.

So watching Zhang Xiaopaw chew one for half an hour, Wan Qiuqing could only keep comforting himself, telling himself that Zhang Xiaopaw was not for himself to eat, but for the millions of people in Yancheng, as long as it was not wasted, he could eat whatever he wanted.

Fortunately, the effect of the top-grade elixir was remarkable, which greatly relieved Wan Qiuqing's heartache.

On the third day, Zhang Xiaozu drew a total of more than 16,000 Taoist talismans.

At the same time, Zhang Xiaopaw's cultivation has improved again.

Zhang Xiaopaw, who tasted the sweetness, confidently asked Wan Qiuqing for a better pill, and Wan Qiuqing almost didn't spray a mouthful of old blood on his face.
