On the Guling Mountain Road, people in ragged clothes walked in groups and migrated towards the distance. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

This is a wave of refugees, the birth of the corpse king last night means that there will be chaos in the near future, as soon as a month or two, or as much as two or three years, everyone wants to escape from this place.

One of the waves of refugees headed straight northeast, like a torrent, sweeping towards a small town at the end of the line.

Although the city is small, it is surrounded on all sides by high walls, and there is a moat outside the city, and there is an iron thorn net on the river.

The moat was a barrier to the ghouls, and there was no water in it, and it was full of charred corpses.

Low-ranking ghouls are stupid, and if they try to get close to the city, they can easily fall into the moat, and in the long run, the river will be filled up every once in a while, and the guards at the city gate will set fire to the corpses in the river.

Occasionally, a ghoul would cross the moat and crash into a thorn net, stabbing through a lot of holes before being dealt with by patrolling soldiers.

This kind of defense is far superior to ordinary cottages, but not only that, the real strongest defense of the small city lies in the towering walls on all sides.

The runes left by the wizards on the walls are so powerful that they are said to be able to stop even terrifying ghouls equivalent to ten stages of body refining.

All kinds of means make the small city impregnable, the people in the city live and work in peace and contentment, and the people outside naturally want to enter.

The tide of refugees from Guling converged into a torrent of migration, all trying to enter this small city.

This city is the city of Baifang.

"All out! Hear no, those who are not residents are not allowed to enter Baifang City! ”

On the tower, two columns of soldiers stood with swords, led by a middle-aged man with a scar on his face, shouting to a large group of refugees gathered at the city gate.

"Let's go inside! We can do anything, as long as we become residents of Baifang City! ”

Several young, strong refugees shouted.

"Let me in, brother, I am willing to give all my wealth and property, and only ask for a few refuge places!"

The owner of a certain cottage was holding a box tremblingly, and the box was full of all his net worth.

There was chaos outside the city gates, refugees pushing and cursing at each other, and there was a clamor everywhere, begging the people of the city to open the door and take them in.

"It seems that getting into the city is more difficult than expected."

A little farther away from the city gate, Wang Wen looked at the crowded crowd in front of him and was worried.

Fang Yu also frowned, the impact of the appearance of the Corpse King two days ago was even more serious than he imagined, he didn't expect so many refugees to come to Baifang City.

Under such circumstances, it is not easy to get into the city.

"All back! You're only going to attract ghouls, and it's not good for you or me! Finally, if you don't leave, you will shoot arrows and kill them! ”

The middle-aged man on the city tower persuaded him for a long time, but the refugees under the city tower still refused to leave, and even tried to break through, which finally angered him.

His body rippled with an amazing aura, and the sound was like thunder, especially with the scars on his face, the whole person looked particularly fierce.

"This person is very strong, I'm afraid he is a Qi Cultivator who has refined more than seven ranks, right?"

Wang Wen watched from a distance and made a judgment, such a master, there is no problem at all in slaughtering ordinary mortals.

"His name is Wei Zheng, the captain of the patrol battalion of Baifang City."

Fang Yu muttered, his eyes revealing a look of remembrance.

He and his mother were expelled from Baifang City more than half a year ago, and it was Wei Zheng who personally sent them out.

However, he does not hate Wei Zheng, he has his responsibilities in his body, and he has always just fulfilled his duties.

The guards on the city tower were furious, and the refugees gathered under the city were a lot quieter at the moment, and most of them retreated with panicked faces.

The population that Baifang City can accommodate is limited, and it is impossible to open the door of convenience, they actually know that they are just giving it a try.

However, there are some stubble among the refugees, who are reluctant to leave, and even want to climb up the wall.

"Oops!"

Just a few steps after climbing, a soldier on the tower threw down a stone grinder and shot him down alive.

"Do it!"

Wei Zheng saw that this group of people was stubborn, and said angrily helplessly.

Woohoo!

A rain of arrows flew down from the castle tower, causing many casualties on the spot.

"How can you be so cruel! We just want to get in! ”

Some of the people who were hit by the arrow said sadly and indignantly, with a look of resentment on their faces.

"You are weak, you are reasonable! If you want to enter Baifang City, you can enter, but it has already been attacked by ghouls! ”

Wei Zheng's eyes lit up and responded.

In an environment like the Lunatic Empire, the population that a city can support is very limited, and it is extremely difficult to maintain stability.

Letting a wave of refugees in the city at random could jeopardize the lives of tens of thousands of permanent residents in the city.

There have been examples of cases in the past, when the lord of a small city took in hundreds of refugees, despite the limited number of people that could accommodate the city.

As a result, refugees from other places heard about it and rushed over, which led to chaos, and finally the whole city was destroyed, and the city lord's family died, and the old city lord committed suicide in grief.

Such a mouth cannot be opened, otherwise it will easily lead to tragedy.

The soldiers on the tower of the city took a firm stand, and looking at the many people who were shot and wounded on the spot, the vast majority of the refugees sighed and turned to leave.

They had come with the mentality of trying their luck, and they knew how difficult it would be to enter the city.

The crowd gradually dispersed, and Wei Zheng on the city tower breathed a sigh of relief. He is really worried that more and more people will gather, and what will happen when there is a shortage of people?

The runes on the city walls can only defend against ghouls, but they are useless to people, and it is usually his brother who patrols the battalion and is in charge of patrolling and guarding.

Seeing that the people were almost scattered, and only a small part of them were unwilling to stay where they were, Fang Yu took his mother and the Wang family to approach the city gate.

"Captain of the Guard!"

He shouted to the castle tower.

Wei Zheng, who was about to leave to rest for a while, heard this voice a little familiar, and couldn't help but look at it.

"Young Master Fang, Mrs. Fang!"

Wei Zheng couldn't help but show joy on his face when he saw the person clearly, but his face quickly became embarrassed.

Appearing here at this time, Fang Yu's purpose was self-evident.

"Young Master Fang, madam, according to the city rules of Baifang City......"

He hesitated.

"I know what you're going to say, I'm coming back this time to attend the New Year's Festival, that's okay, right?"

Fang Yu said solemnly.

Every year at the Fang Family Annual Festival, all members of the family gather together to worship their ancestors.

As a descendant of the family, Fang Yu is naturally qualified to participate in the annual sacrifice.

"New Year's Festival?"

Wei Zheng was stunned when he heard this, revealing a worried look.

"Young Master Fang, if you want to come back for this reason, it's natural, but even if you enter the city, maybe it will be more dangerous."

He vaguely reminded that Baifang City was mainly composed of the two major forces of the Fang family and the hundred schools, and he was very clear about the open and secret battles between the various branches of the Fang family.

Although it is dangerous outside the city, you only need to avoid the ghouls, but when you enter the city, sometimes the human heart is more terrifying.

There were some things that he couldn't say in person, and he hoped that Fang Yu would think it through himself.

While Wei Zheng and Fang Yu were talking, several soldiers on the city tower had different faces, and one of them left in a hurry, not knowing where he went.

"The captain of the guard doesn't need to worry, I have my own plans in mind."

Fang Yu said firmly, he knew that Wei Zheng had good intentions.

"Okay, that's it, I'll open the door for you!"

Wei Zheng gritted his teeth and said, when Fang Yu's father was still there, he took good care of him, and he always missed the old in his heart.

He felt guilty when he drove their mother and son away, and he had been worried about whether they were doing well, but now that he was back, he had no reason not to open the door.

Click-

The heavy city gate slowly opened, and the sound immediately alarmed many refugees who had not yet gone far.

"The door is open! It's on, get in! ”

Some of the refugees immediately tried to enter through the gap, but a group of energetic soldiers came out of the city gate.

"Miscellaneous people are not allowed to enter!"

The soldiers drew their swords and unsheathed them, each with a murderous look on their faces.

As the city guards of Baifang City, their strength is naturally far from being comparable to ordinary people.

The refugees were so frightened that they retreated, and some of them looked unwilling.

Wei Zheng walked out of the door and took the initiative to greet Fang Yu and the others.

"Young Master Fang, I haven't seen you for a long time. Why are you so bad? ”

Wei Zheng came closer, only to find that Fang Yu's face was very pale and bloodless, and he was startled.

Especially although he has a headscarf on his head, the sideburns exposed on both sides are white, and the situation is obviously not optimistic, and the young man is white.

He sighed in his heart, it seemed that Fang Yu had suffered a lot outside for most of the past six months, and his health was worse than before.

He sighed secretly, under such circumstances, what was the point of Fang Yu entering Baifang City?

Naturally, he didn't say these words to his face, and he understood the truth that if you say too much, you will lose.

"I'm fine, I'm just infected with the cold. Mother, Uncle Wang and Aunt Wang, let's go in. ”

Fang Yu looked at the people around him.

"Young Master Fang, isn't this okay?"

Wei Zheng hadn't noticed Wang Wen's family before, and he didn't expect Fang Yu to bring outsiders into the city, and his face changed slightly.

"I will be responsible for something when the time comes, they are my mother's lifesavers."

Fang Yu replied firmly, if it weren't for Uncle Wang and Aunt Wang's many cares, how could he and his mother persist to this day?

Therefore, he wants to bring Uncle Wang's family of three into Baifang City no matter what, so that Xiao Ping'an can have a safe environment to grow up.

"That's okay, it's just that Young Master Fang can only explain to the old hall at that time."

Wei Zheng was reluctant to stop Fang Yu, but he didn't want to be harshly criticized for it.

Unlike many cities, Baifang City does not have a city lord, but a council hall composed of elders of the two major families of Baijia and Fang to decide on large and small affairs in the city.

"That's nature."

Fang Yu nodded in agreement, took his mother's hand and walked towards the city.

Uncle Wang and Aunt Wang hugged Xiao Ping'an, their faces were a little excited, if they could really enter the city, it would be too safe!

"I'm finally back, I don't know if the moon epiphany planted in the yard has died?"

Yan Zhengyun looked at the city card and sighed, remembering the courtyard where they used to live.

Fang Yu felt a lot of kinship, remembering that when his father was still there, their family had lived happily.

Now, I'm afraid things are wrong.

"Wait! What qualifications does the abandoned son of the Fang family, who has been deprived of his resident status, have to return to Baifang City? ”

The group was about to enter the city, but three or four teenagers strode out of the city.
