Text Act III: Alliance Jihad_Chapter 101: Yan Wei's life experience
Since the news of Ximen Zhu's violent death spread all over the country, there are some people in every family loyal to Xuanhuang, especially those families with small surnames who are overwhelmed, because no one knows who the poisonous claws of the New Political Alliance will reach again. The long-awaited Slayer Alliance has not yet appeared, and some people even believe that the news of the Alliance's imminent return is groundless.
The secret actions of the new human emperor made the entire human race unat peace.
Longxi City, located in the west of Longshui, is the capital of the Hilbas domain, the Hilbas domain is the closest domain to Chihong, and the southwest is the Dangyang domain, which is the boundary of the Shangguan family, and the owner of the Hilbas is the Xinghai family of the foreign family.
Longxi City, which is surrounded by mountains and rivers, is now shrouded in night, and on the plain outside the city, a middle-aged man in a black robe is running on a flaming horse, the foal is dark red in the moonlight, and there is a carriage behind him, and two people are sitting in the carriage, the carriage seems to be full of heavy goods, rushing towards the direction of Longxi City, and a dust storm broke out on the sandy road.
These people are a group of merchants, and the man riding the flaming horse in front of them is the leader of this group of traders, his name is Yang Xiu, and on the surface they are traders who buy and sell spices, but in fact they are a gang of monks who resell low-level magic weapons. There are many black market merchants like them, they all started as monks, and after obtaining certain spirit beast spirit cores or alchemy products, they carried out illegal underground trading, and many antique shops or weapons smithy shops in the city were their buyers.
Under the city pass, the city gate has been lowered, and the light of the lights on the night market is reflected from the city, Yang Xiu raised his head, glanced at the word "Longxi" on the city, and then waved his hand at the two guys who were driving the carriage behind him, and prepared to enter the city.
The flame horse and the carriage walked on the street one after the other, the night market that should have been noisy and lively was silent to death, the shops on the street were open, and the stalls were also placed, but they were empty, and a gloomy aura immediately enveloped Yang Xiu, he broke out in a cold sweat, he immediately realized that something was wrong after many years of wandering outside, and the reins in his hand stopped the horse as soon as he pulled the reins, and then he quickly raised his hand and signaled the carriage behind him to stop. The carriage stopped with the sound of horses, and the two guys pulled out their long knives from the carriage and quickly came to Yang Xiu's side, and the three of them looked around, trying to find something.
"What does it smell like?" Yang Xiu smelled a pungent smell, although the smell was not strong, but he still smelled it, like the smell of fire oil, but he didn't know which store leaked oil again, so he didn't think much about it.
"Shopkeeper, is there something wrong, why don't you even have a figure, let's go quickly, let's do this business later......" The guy named Ah San was a little scared, his body trembled, no wonder, Yang Xiu has more than a dozen brothers under his hands, Ah San is a newborn calf in this line, this is the second time to go out with Yang Xiu, naturally he is a little scared, not to mention that there is suddenly no one in this Longxi City, and he is a little apprehensive when he sees it.
"Ah San shut up, Lao Tzu has lived for so long, I haven't encountered any strong winds and waves, there is nothing to be afraid of when there is no one on this street, maybe something happened in the city, people are going to join in the fun, let's go over and take a look." Yang Xiu said impatiently.
Although he said this, Yang Xiu was indeed a little afraid in his heart, this good night market was suddenly empty, could it be that he had seen the hell? He jumped off the horse, pulled out a ghost talisman silver knife from his waist, since he became a black market merchant at the age of twenty, after entering the black market to buy and sell, this silver knife engraved with ghost talismans has been following him, this knife is he got when he received the first order of business on the black market, which was found by two masters in the cave where the spirit ape lived after killing a black mountain spirit ape, it is said that it is an alchemy knife weapon created by a beast spirit level psychic giant ape after being educated by the immortals, and its metal refining can ward off evil spirits and turn poison. Yang Xiu thought to himself, no matter what monsters there were, give him a knife first!
Suddenly, the flame horse screamed restlessly, and at the same time, the horse's head kept swinging, the front hooves stepped on the ground, staring at the other side of the central street with big eyes as if there was something over there, this flame horse is also a very spiritual war horse, several times stronger than the two horses pulling the carriage who don't know the ability to predict danger, Yang Xiu was startled, and immediately strangled the reins, and touched the horse's head, which made it settle down a little.
"Yang Lan, what do you think, is this business to be done or not?" Yang Xiu turned around and asked another guy, this man named Yang Lan is his half-brother, who has been out with him since he was a child, this person is low-key, and he has been chased and killed by the enemy many times and has been * into a desperate situation because he helped escape.
Yang Lan stared at his pair of thief eyes, in terms of appearance, he didn't look like Yang Xiu at all, but his mental ability was much stronger than Yang Xiu, "Big brother, there is no movement around at all, there is no fluctuation of spirit, and there should be guards stationed at the city gate, but there is not even a figure!" ”
"That's weird," Yang Xiu was a little helpless, and after thinking for a few seconds, he spoke again, "Put the horse here, Yang Lan and I will go to No. 6 Bucket Street first to see if the old evil is there, otherwise we won't come here in vain!" Ah San, you kid stay here to watch the goods and horses. As he spoke, he took the long knife and took a stride to leave. Yang Lan didn't say anything, took out another alchemy pistol from the carriage and left with Yang Xiu.
"Wait and be back in a moment." Yang Lan patted Ah San's shoulder, and Ah San nodded, still with fear in his eyes.
Seeing the two people leaving, Ah San looked around restlessly with a knife in his hand, and then looked outside the city gate and on the city tower, for fear that something would suddenly appear. At this time, his stomach suddenly screamed, and he finally arrived in Longxi City after a day's journey, he was also hungry, he looked at a door selling sugar next to him, the sugar mill inside was still rotating, and it seemed that the shopkeeper didn't have time to turn off the switch when he left. He swallowed his saliva, walked a few steps to the door of a shop selling beef noodles, walked in without anyone around, walked past a few tables and came to the kitchen, he saw that the beef in the big iron pot on the stove was still boiling, and the aroma instantly got into his nose, and he didn't care if it was clean or not, he picked a piece of beef with a knife and ate it.
Suddenly, a commotion sound entered his ears, he looked alertly behind the stove, but the things on the table blocked his view, so he lay on the ground and looked, so a man covered in blood appeared in his sight, he was startled, and quickly walked over, the man was wearing a cook's clothes, his head was bitten by something, his brain and blood flowed all over the ground, Ah San's stomach was upside down, and he vomited out all the beef he had just eaten.
The city gate tower is not far from Bucket Street, it is also the distance of three intersections, this kind of medium and large city standard in the Central Plains is an intersection every 100 meters, with the cultivation of these two people as three steps and two steps, it didn't take long to reach the second intersection, but there is still no shadow, and the lights of the shops here are basically turned off, only a few shops are still lit, even Yang Lan is a little scared, because this scene is too infiltrating, he followed closely behind the eldest brother Yang Xiu, his eyes looked around from time to time, When passing through the third intersection, Yang Lan suddenly saw a black shadow flashing on the longitudinal street on the side, which made his hand tremble, and the long knife fell to the ground with a clatter, because the surroundings were very quiet, so the sound of the long knife falling to the ground was very loud.
"What's the matter with you kid! Ah San is scared, even if you are afraid...... I knew that it was better to bring Ah Lu out! Yang Xiu kicked Yang Lan, "Pick it up and leave!" ”
Yang Lan's lips trembled a little, and he pointed in the direction of Zongjie, "Big brother...... There's a figure over there just now! ”
"You're big...... Hey, what does it smell like? Yang Xiu suddenly smelled a faint fishy smell wafting from the depths of the long street, it was dark and he couldn't see anything, but out of instinct, he covered his mouth and nose. Yang Lan also smelled it, Yang Lan's nerves were highly tense, and she was still looking around in fear.
"Big brother, in that direction...... It's the Hilbas Royal Mansion of the Xinghai Family! Yang Lan said.
Before Yang Xiu could speak, he saw a sudden burst of fire in the darkness deep in the long street, as if a fire dragon was born from the palace, and then the houses along the street were burning, and in the blink of an eye, a fire burst into flames!
"What's going on!" Yang Xiu screamed, and at the same time he grabbed Yang Lan and ran back, the fire burned to the street and slowed down, just now it was quiet to death, now it is full of fire burning movements, black smoke is filled, and the light of the moon is obscured.
"Big brother! There are people in the back. Yang Lan said as he retreated.
Yang Xiu's ghost talisman silver knife was shining in the light of the fire, and when he looked back, he could vaguely see a crowd of people rushing over, and suddenly the houses on both sides of them were also on fire, and the things on the entire street could be seen clearly. I saw that there were all kinds of people in the black crowd, some of the guys in the shops were still wearing overalls, and there were guards in the city. They all ran in small steps, and the fishy smell grew stronger and stronger, and they all came towards them.
A guard who rushed to the front had already come to the entrance of the street, Yang Xiu and Yang Lan looked at it, where were the people, the guard's face was black, and the flesh of the mouth and chin was gone, revealing gray teeth and gums, and the eyes were as big as eggs, and the two of them had been found.
It's clear that this is a cadaver reaction!
Before Yang Xiu could speak, Yang Lan had already taken out the life-saving pistol, which was an alchemy pistol, the model was "Optical Flow", a refined small alchemy firearm, the range was not far but very powerful, he shot the guard in the eye socket, bursting out a wave of black blood, and another shot hit the head, and the guard fell to the ground in response. The two of them hurried back to run.
The crowd behind him rushed over like crazy, and some rushed in when they passed by the burning street store, smashing and smashing all the way, and their bodies were still rushing when they were burned by the fire.
Yang Xiu They were still about two hundred meters away from the city gate, they just wanted to call Ah San to drive the carriage over, but they saw that Ah San had already ridden the flame horse out of the city, and they didn't even look back, Yang Xiu was just about to open his mouth to scold, but he didn't want to, but there were also people rushing out of the roadside alley in front of them, their back road was blocked, and the two of them stood there at a loss.
"Big brother...... What's wrong with these people...... It's like you're crazy. Although he had a gun in his hand, Yang Lan was still inevitably afraid, as soon as he turned around, he saw a tall figure rushing out of the burning house, biting Yang Lan's neck, he was bitten to the ground, blood gushed out from the carotid artery, and he died in an instant, Yang Xiu was shocked but reacted quickly, and slashed the head of the guy who bit Yang Lan to death, and the tall man also fell, still holding Yang Lan's flesh and blood in his mouth.
"These people...... That's the people who live in this city! Cannibalism? Is it the plague? Yang Xiu exclaimed, these people who came up can no longer be described as "people", they can only be called "monsters". He looked at his brother's corpse, gritted his teeth and couldn't do anything. On the surface, although Yang Xiu was methodical, his heart was already out of order, he thought that he would not enter the city if he knew that there would be so many mutated monsters in the city, it seems that Ah San's weakness was right at the beginning, they should have discovered that something was wrong here when they first entered the city gate, but Ah San escaped by himself, and now that Yang Lan is also dead, it is too late to regret it. The monsters gradually surrounded them, their skin blackened and their mouths drooling, like the walking dead, and the fishy smell emanated from them.
"Oh my God! Is this the demon corpse of the Black Stone Demon Clan? Yang Xiu slashed four or five monsters in a row with a knife, and he screamed in despair, his eyes red.
Soon, he was surrounded by the monsters that came up like a tide and was thrown to the ground, the ghost talisman silver knife fell to the ground, Yang Xiu's screams resounded throughout the city, and the bright moon in the sky also turned blood-red at some point, hanging in the sky, looming under the black smoke produced by the burning fire, like a blood-red one-eye. In less than half a minute, all that was left in the wind was the sound of fire burning and gnawing bones.
The monsters came from the direction of the palace in large numbers and had gathered near the city gate. The fire was still burning, and a man walked behind this group of monsters, he was wearing a long trench coat, long white shawl hair, black gloves, and a long cigarette between his fingers, he took a deep breath of cigarette and exhaled a long green smoke, and then he said to the invisible messenger jade on the neckline, "Longxi City, the second puppet entity experiment is successful, it's over." ”
