Chapter 693: City Change
Everyone in Kaifeng Mansion has heard Yin Hou and Tianzun tell a lot of stories, and in their stories, there are many bizarre things, and there are some unimaginable legendary experiences.
However, it was the first time to hear Xiao Changtian talk about some past events.
There is a very essential difference between the story of Xiao Changtian and the story of Tianzun and Yin Hou - he is a "bad guy"!
Before the change of heart, Xiao Changtian was a ghost king, a murderous murderer. The young people in Kaifeng Mansion, the person who has heard the most "bad" storyteller, is probably Pang Taishi.
But the "badness" of the Taishi is definitely not as good as the chance of dying when he was young, he is a real tyrant who kills people without blinking.
Yao Changtian just wanted to say, as if he remembered something, he pointed to Bai Yutang's chest and said, "Come, pat it." ”
Bai Yutang was puzzled.
"When I say it, ask your grandmother not to toss." ”
Bai Yutang was suspicious, "It's useful to shoot it?" ”
"I guess it works, anyway, your grandfather can shoot it for a long time." Xiao Changtian rolled his eyes.
Bai Yutang stretched out his hand and patted it lightly on Xiao Changtian's chest...... Looking at the dying sky in front of him, Bai Yutang really couldn't imagine what his grandmother was like.
Tianzun stretched out his hand and patted Bai Yutang and said, "Don't look at him, your grandmother is not like him at all, she looks as beautiful as your mother." ”
Xiao Changtian squinted at Tianzun and was dissatisfied, "Where is my sister like that unruly girl?" ”
Tianzun and Yin Hou both aimed at him - stop talking nonsense, go on!
Xiao Changtian raised his legs and picked up the teacup, and began to tell slowly.
"When I led my troops from the south to the north, I wanted to attack the southwest Shudi."
Everyone nodded, and they still knew that they had led troops to occupy the entire southwest back then.
"I'm invincible." Yao Changtian smiled, "My apprentice still follows me at this point." ”
Everyone looked at Zhao Pu.
Zhao Pu blinked, invincible is quite similar, but if the master wins, he will not slaughter the city.
After receiving the "resentful" gaze from everyone, Yao Changtian coughed, cleared his throat and continued, "I remember the surname of the Tang general who guarded Shu back then, and I forgot what it was called.
The general closed the gate of the city and did not open it, you also know that there are many mountains and mountains, easy to defend and difficult to attack, and the general is quite capable, I attacked for two days without success, so I let people besiege the city.
Zhao Pu asked, "You want to trap the people in the city?" ”
"Huh." Yao Changtian smiled, "I have always fought wars with surprise attacks and not seesaws, and during that time, there were frequent droughts and floods in the Xishu area, and there were many people in the city, so it was impossible for the reserve grain to support them for long, and it would be good to survive half a month." Anyway, I will take a break from the soldiers and horses and prepare some food, grass and weapons, and simply besiege him for a month, when the time comes, they will be so hungry that they will not be able to hold their swords, so they can only go out of the city and surrender. ”
Everyone else in Kaifeng Mansion sighed.
Zhao Pu nodded, this tactic is quite wise.
……
"It was normal the other day." "But I remember that one night about ten days ago, there was a sudden barking of dogs in the city, mixed with the shouts of people, and I didn't know what to do. ”
The fourth son was sitting next to Gongsun and listening obediently, but when Yao Changtian said this, he inexplicably felt a chill on his back, and hurriedly climbed into Gongsun's arms.
Everyone asked, "What happened in the city?" ”
"We all thought they were hungry and crazy to kill the dogs in the city, and after a fuss for more than an hour in the middle of the night, there was a sudden silence. ”
The crowd looked at him with wide eyes - and then huh?
"And then it was really quiet!" "You don't know if you haven't fought a war, but only those who have fought know it...... As long as there are living people, it will not be so quiet! Only a place full of dead people will be surprisingly quiet! ”
"How many people are in the city?" Zhan Zhao couldn't help but ask.
"It's a lot, I should have fled some of it before." "By the next morning, there was still no movement...... And the soldiers at the head of the city were gone, and the battle flags were down. ”
"What's wrong?" Xiao Liangzi was curious, "Hurry up and take a look." ”
"Alas!" Yao Changtian and Zhao Pu shook their heads almost at the same time, "I can't go." ”
Bai Yutang asked, "Are you afraid that the other party will use tricks?" ”
Zhan Zhao also nodded, "If the grain and grass reserves in the city are all used up, then staying is death, and coming out to fight is death, and it is wiser to take risks." ”
Yao Changtian nodded, "So I asked my subordinates not to investigate, just wait!" ”
"And after that?" The crowd urged him to hurry up.
Yao Changtian sneered, "Three days later...... There was still dead silence in the city! There was no sound at all, and the strangest thing was that not only people were silent, but dogs were silent, not even insects barked, something began to appear over the town, and more and more......
"What's that?" Everyone asked.
Xiao Changtian touched his nose and said quietly, "Crow." ”
"This thing wasn't summoned by witchcraft, was it?" Zhan Zhao couldn't help but say.
Xiao Changtian amused Zhanzhao, "On the evening of the third day, it rained heavily, and the next morning, just after dawn, several of my deputy generals came to let me go and see something. ”
Everyone was nervous.
"I followed them to the gate of the city, and found that the moat in front of the gate had turned black and red." Xiao Changtian put down the teacup and seemed very excited to think of that scene. I don't know if Bai Yutang's gentle pat just now had an effect, and he didn't feel distressed when he thought about it, and he was in a good state, so he continued, "If you take a closer look, the dirt from the city gate and the root of the city wall is also red and black. ”
Hearing this, everyone had a bad premonition.
Yin Hou and Tianzun looked at Yao Changtian.
Yin Hou asked, "So, those corpses in Baijiaoling were not caused by your slaughter of the city?" ”
Yao Changtian squinted at him and Tianzun, "You didn't believe it when you said that I didn't do it...... But anyway, this matter has something to do with me. ”
"You went into town to see it?" Bai Yutang asked.
"Naturally, I went." "I let people break through the gates...... When I entered the door, I saw what a scene it was...... Tsk tsk. ”
Yao Changtian has a little aftertaste, probably because he was too happy, his heart hurt again, and he hurriedly beckoned to Bai Yutang, "Your grandmother is making trouble again." ”
Bai Yutang was helpless, and patted the position of Xiao Changtian's heart again.
Xiao Changtian slowed down, pursed his lips and rubbed his chest, and restrained his anger a little, "The city is like a battlefield that has just finished a battle, there are dead corpses everywhere, blood flows like rivers, white walls and black tiles have become red walls and black tiles, and the city is full of crows, and the smell of blood carries the rancid smell of corpses." ”
"How did those people die?" Zhan Zhao frowned and asked.
"I asked my men to check it, and they were all fatally injured by knives, guns and sticks, and many of them had their heads shattered."
The crowd was shocked, "Who did it?" ”
Zhao Pu was puzzled, "To cause such a large number of casualties, you have to have a team of soldiers and horses." ”
"So here's the problem." "The whole city has been fenced off by me, no one can get out, of course no one can go in, how did the city slaughterer get in?" ”
Everyone shook their heads.
Zhan Zhao asked, "So the murderer is still in the city?" ”
"I asked the medic to take a good look at the bodies and found something interesting." Yao Changtian smiled, "It's like saying that there are two corpses lying together, and the knife wound on the neck of one of the corpses is caused by the knife in the hand of the corpse next to it." And the stick wound on the head of the corpse next to him was caused by the stick in the hand of the man he hacked to death......"
After Yao Changtian finished speaking, Gongsun's eyes widened in surprise, "Did you kill each other?" ”
"Could it be that they were besieged and fought for supplies?" Lin Yehuo asked.
Yao Changtian shook his head, "I have people check, almost every household has a reserve of water and food, and the warehouses in the city are also full...... And not only people were killed, but all those with vitality died, cats, dogs, chickens and ducks without exception. ”
"It feels like ......" Gongsun frowned, "the people of the whole city suddenly lost their minds, went crazy and fought each other......"
Yao Changtian nodded, "However, just as many survivors can be dug up from the pile of dead bodies on the battlefield, when my subordinates transported the corpses to Baijiaoling for burial, they also found a few injured but not dead." ”
"Is there anything unusual about the wounded?" Gongsun asked.
Xiao Changtian shook his head, "It's just not...... Most of these people were injured, and after examination by the military doctor, they were bandaged and found only external injuries. Among the survivors was the general. ”
"The Lord is not dead?" Zhao Pu asked.
"Hmm." Yao Changtian nodded, "I wanted to wait for him to wake up and ask him what happened, but after he sobered up, he looked amnesiac, and said that I slaughtered the city and killed the people in his city, and I wanted to fight with me." ”
"And then how do you do it?" Zhan Zhao couldn't help but ask.
Everyone looked at Zhanzhao, what does that mean--aren't you asking this question? Still expecting him to be invited to dinner for a long time?
Yao Changtian also looked at Zhan Zhao with a smile, "Of course I killed him, if he wants to be a hero, he will fulfill him, I am the best at being a man." ”
And they all squinted at him.
can think about it carefully, the situation of the Shu general seems to be similar to the several martial arts masters who were recruited after being "touched porcelain" before.
"The other injured people also looked like idiots when they woke up, and I didn't take it too seriously. But when the soldiers cleaned up the corpses and patrolled the city, they found hundreds of people in a shelter leading to the bottom of the city. ”
"Survivors?" Zhan Zhao asked, "Didn't you kill them all?" ”
The corners of Xiao Changtian's mouth moved slightly, "To kill or not to kill...... That's a problem. ”
Everyone was speechless, no matter how crazy Bai Mutian was, it was estimated that he would not be as abnormal as the young man of the year.
Xiao Changtian continued, "Hmm...... Those people were quite normal, and I found a few of them and asked what was going on in the city...... They said that it was the night when the dogs barked and they were suddenly in a state of madness, and they were fighting each other with red eyes. There were also soldiers who were originally defending the city who were crazy and attacked the people in the city with their blades, and only a small number of people who were still conscious fled to underground shelters.
"How did it happen?" Zhan Zhao asked, "Does anyone remember the cause?" ”
Yao Changtian shook his head, "But there is an old man in our army, and he told me that he had heard his grandfather talk about similar things before. People in a certain village suddenly began to kill each other, and the government dispatched a large number of men and horses to arrest all the murderers. When they were in cages, they were going out as if they were crazy, attacking all living creatures by all means...... But after about three days, the men came to their senses, and they didn't remember anything they had done. This is a plague, called evil spirit disease, also called death plague. ”
"It's a disease?" Lin Yehuo felt that it was much more terrible than the plague of chicken, "Can it be cured?" ”
Xiao Changtian raised his eyebrows, "In fact, the story is not over yet." ”
"And a follow-up?" The crowd was amazed.
Xiao Changtian laughed twice, "The show is still to come......
"It's not the survivors who have a problem, are they?" Zhao Pu asked suddenly.
Yao Changtian smiled heartily, with a wicked expression on his face, "Isn't it." ”>
