Volume 1 Qing Ming Chapter 68 The Beginning of the Tribulation
Zhao Zihan sent a few swords at the golden retriever, but the sword light was as good as it arrived, but its figure disappeared, and it was never able to hurt a single hair of it.
But in this way, the demon beasts at the head of the city suddenly ran away, and a group of sergeants and cultivators cheered loudly, and some officers who commanded the firm ordered the excited sergeants to drag their heavy crossbows and drive to the gap in the city wall.
"Whoosh!" Suddenly the arrows were like flying locusts, and they didn't aim at them, and shot directly at the place where the monster beast screamed the most in the sea of fire.
Zhao Zihan was busy, glanced at Mei'er, and was surprised to find that in the mist, there seemed to be a tall phantom shaking around her body!
Blinded? He wiped the corners of his eyes and looked at them, but there was nothing.
Was it just an illusion in the smoke?
The slaughter lasted for about forty minutes, and the mist in the air seemed to have been burned by the fire, and a bright dawn appeared on the horizon.
The confused eyes of the demon beasts also seemed to be slowly roasted by the fire, and some of them had begun to turn around and run away, and in a moment, the demon beasts in the open area under the city wall became wolf-run, and all the demon beasts that could run escaped within ten minutes.
The city walls burst into cheers: "This is the power of magic!" "Long live magic!"
Zhao Zihan, Yan Mei'er and Yao Yao kept calm, the real enemy has not yet appeared, how can things be so simple!
"Mayor Shao, how is the retreat of civilians going?"
Zhao Zihan looked at Shao Youzun, who was a little overjoyed, and this question seemed very inappropriate.
Shao Youzun was stunned for a moment, and looked at Zhao Zihan's face: his complexion was cold, and he didn't smile, he was serious!
"Is this necessary?" he said to himself.
Although he was reluctant in his heart, it was the time to rely on them, and Shao Youzun decided to resolutely implement the retreat plan.
waved his hand, and called two more colonels: "Immediately send an order, the whole city retreats, speed up, no one is left, violators will bear the consequences!"
Although the soldiers at the head of the castle were strange, they did not raise any objections, and it was natural for them to obey the decisions of the five factions.
The carnival is the most needed vent for them at this moment.
Life is often full of unexpected tribulations, and happiness is sometimes too short.
When Shao Youzun was arranging for the sergeant to clean up the battlefield with a wave of his hand, the scene that appeared by the woods outside the city wall suddenly made everyone hold their breath, almost not believing their eyes!
Mayor Shao's raised left hand hung in the air for half a day and was not put down......
"Why are there so many people?" he muttered.
"It's... It's not ......," he watched, the more terrified he became.
"It's... Is it a corpse, how can a corpse be transformed?"
At this time, it was already the morning equinox, and the faint morning sun shone into the woods, and the corpses of demon beasts under the city walls filled the entire open area, wisps of light smoke swayed with the morning breeze, and the smell of burnt skin and flesh filled the air.
At the end of the open area, there were "people" walking towards the city wall......
These "people" are ragged, flesh and blood are blurred, the intestines are disheveled, the eyes are dull, the steps are stiff, the teeth are open, and the whole body is foul-smelling...... Corpses!
The sound of joy on the city walls was suddenly interrupted as if something was choking the throat, and everyone's eyes widened and they were stunned.
The group of "people" soon gathered densely in the open area, and a big man at the forefront... He... He...
There is only one dull right eye, the left eye... The eyeballs hung out of the sockets and were bloody.
Only half of his face remains... The bloody left side of his face was rotten.
"General Shao!" one of the soldiers shouted in horror.
Shao Youzun suddenly put down his hand that was waving in the air, and shouted bitterly: "Three... Three... Third brother!"
With a "snap", he sat down on the ground.
This time, the royal court suddenly transferred troops to start a war with the demon clan, and the mayor had some selfish intentions and asked the third brother to recruit the civilian army and support Nanli, but it was better than going to die on the battlefield over there.
Didn't the third brother send a fast horse to report the day before yesterday: It is going well, and 3,000 civilian troops have been recruited, and they have been driving south non-stop......
How do you know today... Today...... Ay!
If the heavens want you to die, how can you escape......
"Two dogs!"
"Wangcai!"
"Flying squirrel!" ......
At this time, the corpse man had approached within 200 meters of the city wall, and the soldiers at the head of the city recognized their acquaintances, neighbors, Fa Xiao, and even relatives and brothers in the zombie group!
So, the third brother he... He... The civilian army he led has been wiped out, and all of them have become zombies in front of them?
What kind of mysterious power is this... The mainland has never heard of it for thousands of years!
This... This... I'm afraid that the catastrophe that will destroy the world has come......
Shao Youzun is nearly fifty years old, and he has been in battle for a long time, he was still a little distracted when he got up from the ground, but his eyes were firm when he stood upright.
Qingyangmen's junior brother Zhao Xiao escaped death from Nanli, and as soon as he came, he said those unreliable things.
Now it seems that he is only afraid of ...... He insisted on evacuating the civilians for no reason, and there was no reason for him to do so!
Today's events are really strange, I wonder if I can wait for the reinforcements sent by the royal court?
"All the machines, the heavy, ready!"
He snatched the pennant from the lieutenant beside him, his eyes were red, and he gritted his teeth and gave the order himself.
"Someone, hurry up and report the situation here to the royal court. ”
"Damn, what kind of demon clan are you fighting at this time?"
An officer beside him knelt on the ground, "Yes!" ”
Quickly got up, flew on the horse, and with a "driving" sound, the crisp sound of the horsewhip broke the dead silence at the south gate of Xincheng.
Zhao Zihan was full of depression at this time, looking at Mei'er and Yao Yao and didn't know how to speak: This matter has nothing to do with me.
Those ridiculous guys are still arranging cannibalism in full swing, and the catastrophe here is coming......
It's better to go away with Mei'er and fly high... Go back to the Demon Clan... Fight against the damned Terrans, even if I die in battle, that's where I belong!
Even if these zombie people are repulsed, those deadly monsters still don't know where to hide, and the courage of "them" seen in the south of the city, where can we resist?
Can... This city is full of living people, and there are thousands of civilians in the city, although I am a demon, but in fact, how can I not be a human?
Looking at Shao Youzun, who was red-eyed, he was as calm as a dead soldier at the moment, and couldn't help but praise in his heart:
I don't know if you're usually a good official, but you showed me that there are loyal and brave people in the human race who are not afraid of death.
Whatever... Resist for a while, and then see how it goes!
Yao Yao slowly calmed down from the shock, and her already clear eyes gradually became misty again: Zombie man, kill or not?
Zhao Zihan looked at her: "You are good at flying, and when you see that the situation is not good for a while, you immediately withdraw and take Dr. Qiao and the little girl with you......"
Speaking of this, he paused, looked up to the north, where in the distance were the misty mountains, winding and endless.
Zhao Zihan raised his right hand and pointed to the north: "Just go there, don't follow the hordes of refugees." ”
Yao Yao naturally knew that it was powerful, and nodded lightly.
Mei'er's face looked at the zombie people approaching step by step under the city wall, her face became more and more gray, he looked at Zhao Zihan and asked: "Hanhan, zombie people are dead people, kill people?"
Zhao Zihan's face was cold, and he didn't know how to respond.
Shao Youzun seemed to reply from shock, and he interjected: "What is the reason for this? Could it be that we all become zombies when we die?"
Zhao Zihan was shocked, and thought of this possibility in his heart, but said in his mouth: "Do you ask me? You ask me, who do I ask?"
I can't help but wonder secretly: that thing is clearly close to the left, but why is it so slow to show up today? Is it threatening or warning us with a zombie man?
If a person dies and a corpse changes, what kind of calamity should Qing Ying suffer?
Thinking of this, Zhao Zihan didn't care that the zombie man was approaching the city wall, but turned his head to look at Shao Youzun and said, "Lord Mayor, you better retreat quickly!"
Shao Youzun was stunned for a moment, and his neck suddenly became thicker: "How can this be? The people of the city... I'm a parent here, how can I... Abandon them and run for your life first?"
Zhao Zihan sighed: "I think the people in the city should have retreated, we will resist first, but you have to stay for use." ”
Shao Youzun said angrily: "What is useful? Not to mention that my third brother has died so miserably, if the civilians in the city don't evacuate, what is the use of me staying here?"
Zhao Zihan sighed again: "The matter has come to this, you still only think about one Xincheng in your heart? Behind you is Luocheng, and the entire Great Qin!"
"You're the only high-ranking official who has seen the tragic situation here, you don't know what the situation is now?
Shao Youzun suddenly sweated like rain, looked at the zombie man who was approaching the wall, gritted his teeth, and waved the flag in his hand violently: "Release the arrow!"
Suddenly the arrows rained down, but ...... The zombies were shot by heavy arrows and either fell backwards or fell to the ground, and soon rushed up again.
Even if the head, or throat, or chest is pierced by arrows! I'm not afraid of pain... Don't be afraid to fall... Looks crazy.
Seeing this, Mei'er threw a fire at the place where the zombies were piled up under the wall...
This seems to work.
The zombie man suddenly burned... However, the raging flames soon climbed the city wall, and the soldiers who were in front of them screamed in horror and fled in all directions......
The monks immediately stepped forward with their swords and clapped their hands together for a long time.
Zhao Zihan split a burning zombie man into two pieces with a sword, and there was a scorching barbecue on the left and right, and he hurriedly shouted: "Yao Yao..."
Yao Yao was too busy to take care of herself, and Zhao Zihan had to roll around on a donkey, but he rolled to Mei'er's side...
Mei'er just knocked a zombie man down the city wall with a stick in the air, and saw that Zhao Zihan was in danger, but she didn't have time to change her moves...
In desperation, Mei'er threw herself into the fire and fell off the city wall with the zombie in the fire......
Zhao Zihan suddenly forgot his soul, and couldn't help screaming: "Mei'er..."
How do you know that Mei'er is immaculate, but it is rising against the wall... She has fire attribute magic, so she is naturally not afraid of calcination by fire......
Shao Youzun held a broad sword in his hand and slashed a few fire balls, and the fire in front of him was extremely bright in a trance... Third brother!
... You... You... It's all for my brother who hurt you......
Suddenly, a stream of tears flowed, and Shao Youzun, whose eyes were blurred with tears, shouted: "Third brother, the eldest brother will give you a ride......!"
With a slash of the sword, the "fire man" flew into the air with a bang......
Before it hit the ground, it exploded again, scattering the bones and leaving only a black circle of remnants on the ground......
Shao Youzun muttered to himself: "Buried... Buried... Third brother... Big brother will bury you!"
