Chapter Twenty-Three: King Hui is the key figure
When dawn appeared, the bell stopped ringing completely.
The dawn of hope has come to this desolate land.
Standing on the city tower, Mi Xiaoxin and Lou Nan, the common people looked at the rising red sun in the sky, and they had a feeling of the rest of their lives. With tears in their eyes, people supported each other, and mothers hugged their babies tightly and basked in the sun.
It was as if what I experienced last night was a nightmare.
As for Bian Jinding, he hid in the corner of the house and fell asleep.
And the people who had taken refuge on the roofs also climbed down. The dozen archers and the swordsmen on the bell tower, led by a man, appeared at the gate below the tower. This person is the abolished prince - King Hui!
"Ladies and gentlemen, I am King Hui. Last night, when I saw that the people were in danger, I reached out to help. ”
Fortunately, thanks to his rescue, the people escaped. The people were grateful, and they knelt down and kowtowed: "Thank you King Hui for saving your life! Thank you King Hui for saving your life!"
"People, please get up quickly!" King Hui pretended to help an old man in front of him.
The old man was already in tears, and grabbed King Hui's hand and didn't let go: "Lord Hui, you are really our reborn parents." Without you, my old life would be gone. ”
"Don't say that, old man. As the prince of the Ming Dynasty, I should have solved problems for the court and gone to the soup for the people!"
That's for later. Now, when he comes out like this, he has naturally become a good prince who saves all the people from fire and water.
As the saying goes, those who win the hearts of the people win the world. Today, the emperor is obsessed with cultivation and alchemy, and the court is corrupt, and he is controlled by Cao Shaoqin, the governor of the East Factory. Cao Gonggong claimed to be 9,000 years old, formed a party for personal gain, framed Zhongliang, and made the people's livelihood miserable. Coupled with the various evil deeds of Dongchang Jinyiwei, the people have long complained about the court, and at this time, Prince Hui was born, and a positive image of the country and the people naturally won the love of the people.
However, Prince Hui is not here. What's the use of relying on the love of the people in half of Ningde City, what he wants is the hearts of the people in the world.
So, this is just the first step in his overall plan.
"Everyone, everyone!" said Lord Hui, "although we have survived, we must not be careless. I heard that yesterday a girl broke into the county office and almost prevented the tragedy from happening. Presumably, this girl must know the ins and outs of the matter. I just don't know if this girl escaped. ”
"It's the young lady of the Lou family!" shouted onlookers from yesterday's county government office in the crowd.
"Miss Lou?"
"That's right, it's that little poisonous lady!" The people didn't know Loulan, because she was the ugliest Zhong Wuyan in the city, and she was still a master of poison, so they pointed to Mi Xiaoxin standing on the city tower.
Lord Hui looked at it and said in his heart, obediently, he has never seen such an ugly girl. There is a half-red birthmark on his face like Zhong Wuyan, and his hair is scattered, which does not look like everyone's beautiful appearance at all.
No wonder it's called a little poisonous girl.
But he didn't show the disgust in his heart, and said, "Miss Lou, since you know the inside story, it's better to explain it to the people." ”
"Just say it!" The world is big, and Mi Xiaoxin is the most courageous.
She ran down, jumped on the high platform, looked at the only half of the survivors, and began to count: "What did I say yesterday at the county office." I tell you that the zombies will be resurrected, but you don't believe it. Now something is wrong. Don't you dislike me when you see that I'm ugly? Phew, you deserve it! Let you judge people by their appearance. If you have money, go to the Internet celebrity!
Even the Internet celebrities have come out, which shows how much she hates beauties.
Everyone couldn't raise their heads when they were talked, and someone murmured: "This young lady is also poisonous, she is like this, and she gloats." ”
Mi Xiaoxin's ears were sharp, she heard it, snorted, stood up, crossed her waist, "What's the matter, don't give it!"
King Hui didn't expect this Mi Xiaoxin to be so spicy, so he hurriedly rounded the field and said, "Miss Lou, just hurry up and talk about how to deal with these zombies." ”
"That's it. The people also realized their mistakes and said, "Miss Lou, aunt, just tell us." ”
"Okay. I see you're pretty good. Mi Xiaoxin crossed her legs and sat down.
"These zombies have two major characteristics, one is that they are afraid of light, you see, when the day comes, they hide. The other is that the sense of hearing is particularly sensitive. The bell rang last night, and they all ran to the bell tower. ”
"Isn't this nonsense!" said a young man in the crowd, "and you still need to say that?"
Extrapolate a little, and you'll find out.
"Hey!" Mi Xiaoxin pointed at him, "Okay, okay, you come." You can you up!”
"No, no, no. I don't dare. The young man bowed his head in shame amid the condemnation of the crowd.
King Hui smiled, "Miss Lou is really informal, but what kind of oil did you just say?"
"If you don't know English, don't ask, it seems that you are uneducated. Mi Xiaoxin glanced at him and embarrassed King Hui.
Wait a minute...... This man ......
Mi Xiaoxin looked at King Hui, and the more she looked at him, the more she felt that he was a little familiar, as if she had seen him somewhere.
"You...... Have we met?" Mi Xiaoxin said, pointing at him.
"Bold people's daughter, you actually pointed at the prince?" the master beside King Hui scolded.
And King Hui generously motioned for him to step back, and said to Mi Xiaoxin, "Miss Lou, this is the first time this king has come to Ningde, how can he see you?"
"Okay......" Mi Xiaoxin glanced at him again.
No, she must have seen him. But not in the Ming Dynasty, but in the 21st century. However, she just can't remember what the identity of this King Hui is in the 21st century.
At this time, she couldn't imagine that this King Hui would be the key person to solve all the mysteries in the 21st century!
King Hui asked again, "Miss Lou, I wonder if you have a solution?"
"There must be!" Mi Xiaoxin looked at the sun above her head and said, "Take advantage of the daytime now, quickly find out the corpses of the zombies and cut off their heads, otherwise, when the night falls, the zombies will be resurrected, and we will all be finished!"
Miss Lou was right. King Hui took over and said, "Everyone, hurry up and find out all the zombies in the city, remember, no corpse can be missing!"
"Yes!"
King Hui gave an order, and everyone responded.
So, on this day, everyone is searching for zombies hidden in all kinds of dark clouds.
Fortunately, the zombies are asleep in broad daylight, and they will not be attacked if they are found. So it's hard to find where they're hiding. Plus there are too many of them. Less than a third of the people remained. It is not an easy task to find all the corpses. There are probably thousands of people in this Ningde City now, but the number of zombies is more than 20,000.
It's hard to do this in a day. What's more, when a family member is killed, the heart is sad, and people's thoughts are to find the body of the family and bury it well in order to fulfill filial piety. No one wants their loved ones to have their heads cut off like chopping vegetables and melons after they die.
In addition, the disaster came so suddenly, people were at a loss for a while, and there was no leader to command. So, at the end of the morning, the search for the corpses of zombies proceeded very slowly. At this rate, after dark, a large number of zombies will have to be resurrected.
Let's say that Lou Nan and Mi Xiaoxin returned to Lou's house with a few surviving family members and maids. They found the zombies hidden in Lou's house one by one. Among them, there are many familiar neighbors, family members, and friends. And the corpse of the old lady Lou was lying in the bedroom of the old man Lou, with a broken stool leg stuck in his mouth.
"Dad, Dad!" Master Lou was overly sad, pulled the brother and sister, and kowtowed to Mrs. Lou, who had died twice.
They burst into tears and blamed themselves in their hearts.
It turned out that Master Lou was also planning to ask someone to find a coffin, put the old lady's body in it, and planned to bury it again on a later date. But at this time, who can care about helping him find a coffin.
Lou Nan helped his father up and said, "Dad, you must always mourn and change, don't cry and hurt your body." Grandpa Quanxia is knowledgeable, and he won't blame you. ”
Master Lou wiped a handful of tears and grabbed Lou Nan's hand, "Nan'er, Dad can stand it." You and your sister are busy. I want to spend a little more time with your grandfather. ”
"Oh well. Lou Nan took Mi Xiaoxin and walked to the side.
There was one thing he had wanted to ask her for a long time.
It's just that since the zombies were resurrected in the county government last night, he couldn't find time to ask. I ran for my life all night, and now I finally managed to slow down.
So, he grabbed Mi Xiaoxin's hand and asked, "Sister, what's the matter with your husband?"
