259 Crisis of confidence

The resistance created when cutting the neck of the walking corpse causes the rope to gradually change from a straight straight shape to an arc. The more Shen Yan'er and Xiaoqing ran forward, the more they leaned in. Finally, after each of them made a huge semicircle, they finally met. All the walking corpses were encircled inside by ropes. The two continued to exert their strength until all the walking corpses that were still standing were strangled clean.

Seeing the last walking corpse fall, Shen Yan'er sat on the ground with her butt collapsed. I don't know when I'm tired and sweating, and I can't feel the chill of the night anymore. It wasn't until he saw that all the walking corpses had fallen, his whole body relaxed, and the sweat on his face and body was blown by the cold wind, that he shivered several times from the cold.

Xiaoqing leaned beside Shen Yan'er and sat on the ground exhausted, also so tired that she was about to collapse, gasping for breath. Both of them were too tired to speak, and they only communicated with relieved and happy eyes. After staring at each other for a while, Xiaoqing suddenly pulled the corners of her mouth and smiled silently, and at the same time gave Shen Yan'er a thumbs up.

"It's worthy of being a kobold strategist, and this time it's thanks to you." As he spoke, Xiao Qing stood up, clenched the long sword in his hand, and staggered towards the mountain of walking corpses in different places.

"Dog-headed military division" is the nickname that Xiaoqing gave Shen Yan'er when she was in the mass grave before. At that time, Shen Yan'er was disgusted and very resistant, but now she has an incredible sense of intimacy when she hears it. I don't know when she and Xiaoqing have been inseparable.

The walking corpse whose neck was broken by a cloth rope is not completely dead. The head that fell to the ground still kept opening its mouth and letting out a terrifying roar. Countless hideous, rotting faces were facing the two survivors, as if they were going to continue their attacks. So now the battle is not over. There is one final finishing touch.

Xiao Qing squeezed out the last bit of his body, dragged his tired steps towards the walking corpse, and pierced the heads that were only bones left one by one. Shen Yan'er also wanted to help, but her legs were so weak that she couldn't stand up, so she could only keep her eyes open and observe the movements around Xiaoqing from a distance, so as to alert her in time in case of danger.

Just as Xiaoqing was about to stab her fifth head, she suddenly stopped, ripped something from the walking corpse, and took it in her hand to look at it carefully. After discovering this move on her part. Shen Yan'er, who was a little farther away, couldn't help but stretch her neck. Nervously looking.

"What's wrong?" Shen Yan'er asked.

Xiaoqing didn't answer immediately, but very cautiously raised a piece of iron card in his hand and took a closer look at the moonlight. The brand is about one finger long and two fingers wide. The shape is elongated. The thickness of an ordinary sword - like a name tag for identification.

He craned his neck and observed the moonlight for a long time. Xiao Qing looked back at Shen Yan'er with a solemn expression, and said her conclusion: "They are soldiers of the Phoenix Dynasty. ”

"How do you know?" Shen Yan'er was suddenly frightened, and subconsciously straightened her upper body.

Xiaoqing didn't say much. Instead, he directly threw the name tag in his hand to Shen Yan'er, and bent down to search for other walking corpses. Born as a thief, and she specializes in stealing the walking corpse in a mass grave, she can be described as skillful and quick to do this kind of thing.

Before Shen Yan'er could see what was written on the sign, Xiaoqing took out three similar iron cards from the pile of walking corpses. Xiao Qing, who had already had an answer in his heart, did not continue to search, but took the three newly found iron plates and returned to Shen Yan'er's side.

At this time, Shen Yan'er was still staring at the first iron plate and studying it carefully. The iron plaque is rusty and illegible, with a vague name faintly visible on the front and a mighty tiger head logo on the back.

With the tiger's head as the symbol, Shen Yan'er first thought of Wei Shixuan's father, Wei Zhenhai, but after a moment, she realized that something was wrong. Because the tiger head in the Wei family coat of arms is on the side, but the tiger head on this brand is front......

The same pattern, as if I had seen it somewhere.

Shen Yan'er's eyes suddenly tingled, and she suddenly thought of the relic left by Ah Zhen—that is, a gold token engraved with the same tiger head. The owner of the token was Zhao Shenzhi, the general of the year. Later, the token was seized by Phoenix Ke and turned into evidence to identify King Jiyang for disobeying the emperor's orders.

Shen Yan'er, who was deep in thought, looked solemn, and Xiaoqing whispered in her ear: "Probably this group of walking corpses used to be soldiers who listened to Zhao Shenzhi's orders. The speculation of the two coincides, and indeed, this possibility is the greatest.

No wonder these walking corpses are of similar height and size, and they are all young men, so it is...... Thinking of this, Shen Yan'er felt an indescribable bitterness in her heart.

This group of victims who became walking corpses and died were only a part, and although some survived, they were buried by the order of their own emperor, and only Zhao Shenzhi, who was released by King Jiyang, survived. Although he survived, he still died alone and miserably in the Shen family restaurant.

"Maybe there was a big battle around here......" Xiao Qing picked up a few name tags in his hand and looked sadly at the corpses lying on the ground in front of him.

Shen Yan'er nodded, she could understand Xiaoqing's feelings. When I don't know the identity of this group of walking corpses, I will never be soft, but after knowing their identity, my mood becomes complicated, and I feel a little sympathetic and reluctant.

"Zhao Shenzhi was ordered to secretly investigate the Anli Corpse Army, and so many of his men died here, which is enough to prove that Peicheng is deeply connected with the Corpse Army. Maybe Zhao Shenzhi was attacked by the Walking Corpse Army here back then, and we should investigate this neighborhood well......" Shen Yan'er turned her head and looked around, and everywhere she could see was a desolate dirt slope.

"If we don't go back, we won't be able to explain it to the people in the restaurant." Xiaoqing reminded Shen Yan'er that it was not too early.

"I don't know what happened to Baoyin......" Shen Yan'er looked at the direction of Baoyin's escape, only hoping that she could survive this catastrophe safely.

As a result, Xiaoqing snorted coldly and said, "The strength of both of us is so difficult to deal with, her martial arts body is not as good as ours, and she will probably die a long time ago." That's fine, after we go back, we will tell Sù Xiaohei the truth, saying that Baoyin was bitten to death by a walking corpse. ”

After Xiaoqing finished speaking, she walked towards the group of walking corpses, it seems that she wants to kill all the walking corpses here before leaving, so as to prevent future troubles.

But Xiaoqing had just turned around, but Shen Yan'er grabbed her hand.

Shen Yan'er asked in a low voice, "You said that you heard from the guests in the restaurant that there are ghosts in the cemetery, is it true?" "The gaze was very gloomy.

Xiaoqing looked back at Shen Yan'er, sneered, and replied: "Of course it's fake, I just want to trick Baoyin here to kill her, because there are no living people walking around here late at night, and it is most convenient to dispose of corpses, just dig a pit and bury her." ”

"But is it necessary to fool you so far?" Shen Yan'er still grabbed Xiaoqing's hand and didn't let go, and her five fingers slightly increased her strength. (To be continued.) )
