Chapter 610: The whole army is poisoned
The dawn of dawn can always be seen from the sky faster than anywhere else, and in the morning light, the red rainbow clouds and earth kite have already flown above Cheongju City.
Being able to fly is such a benefit, it takes several days to walk on the ground, and it only takes a few hours to fly in the sky!
From above, he saw the barracks of his Xuan army, and sure enough, it was twenty miles away from the Broken Sky City, and he did not enter the city. And the gate of the Heaven-Breaking City was closed, and a large number of stones and sacks were piled up inside, all of which crowded the city gate, which was to prevent the Xuan army from attacking the city!
Xiaobao and Earth Kite looked at each other and smiled bitterly. The older this old general Yuantai is, the less courageous he becomes! With what he is doing now, Xuan Jun may not have the courage to stand there and let him cut it!
Didn't enter the city, didn't go to Xuanying, Xiaobao flew straight forward with the earth kite, and went straight to Cheongju City, and now arriving one second earlier may change the situation of the entire battle!
As Xiaobao expected, before arriving at the barracks, Xiaobao had already felt the different solemn atmosphere of Cheongju City.
On the street, there are three steps and one post, five steps and one sentry, standing Yin Jun, and on the gate of the palace, a seal has been pasted, and there are two Yin soldiers standing at the door!
Xiaobao sat on the back of the red rainbow flowing clouds, looking at everything below through the morning mist, and his heart was even more worried, such a formation, could it really be that Yinhu came over in person?
I didn't stop at Cheongju Castle, I turned around and went directly to the Tiger Courage Barracks! From above, there was nothing unusual in the barracks, it was not as heavily guarded as Cheongju City, and even the soldiers on the watchtower were lying in the tower and sleeping!
This situation is very wrong! The Die Hard Army does not have such lax discipline, otherwise Yinhu would not be so uneasy about King Shujing!
Yinhu was originally suspicious, and the king of Shujing did not do what he wanted, which made him even more intolerable, and the relationship with the Tiger Courage Army was already on the same level, and the Tiger Courage Army had to guard against Hu Xiao and Yinhu at the moment, and should be more vigilant than before, but why did it become so lax?
Flying around the barracks, Xiaobao found that the entire barracks was lifeless, if it weren't for the lazy yawning appearance of the soldiers on duty, Xiaobao even felt that the barracks were empty, and the people inside might all be dead, or they were all gone!
The school yard was empty, and there was no one to see when it was supposed to be the morning drill! Xiaobao let the red rainbow clouds and the earth kite land on the school grounds, and then quickly ran to the nearest camp!
Outside the nearest tent, there were stacks of more than a dozen long guns, a total of five stacks, indicating that this barracks was a squad of long guns, about fifty or sixty people, living in five tents.
The weather is getting hotter and hotter, and even the soldiers of Xuanying can't wait to tear off the roof of their tents when they sleep, and if it weren't for the military order, they all want to sleep in the open air!
Xiaobao left the red rainbow in the school grounds, and when it encounters someone, it will hide itself. He stood outside the tent with the ground kite, calming down, feeling the sound of breathing inside.
Something is wrong, it is so wrong! There are indeed a dozen soldiers living in it, but their breath is very light, but their breath is very long!
This is impossible for a normal person, so it is what makes Xiaobao feel the strangest. Only when people are about to wake up, their breathing will be lightened, their breath will become shorter, and they can wake up with a little movement.
And when I sleep the deepest, I have a long breath, and if I am a man, there is a snoring sound. But now, the people inside actually have such an aura, as if these people are not asleep, they are all lying calmly and carefully!
Obviously, the ground kite also heard the strangeness inside, glanced at Xiaobao, carefully reached into his hand, unfastened the buckle on the curtain, and gently lifted it, Xiaobao lowered his head and dodged in!
Inside there are two rows of bunks, and six people sleep on each row, a total of twelve people. Now they are all covered with blankets, curled up, sleeping on bunks, as if they have malaria!
It's just that what surprised Xiao Bao was that the faces of these soldiers were a little black! Mainly concentrated on the Yin Hall between the eyebrows, there seemed to be a faint black aura shrouded in it!
It's strange, how can this be? These soldiers have been poisoned? Or have they been subjected to demonic magic? If it is the demonic magic of evil spirits, then why can't they feel the breath of evil spirits?
Xiaobao quietly walked out, pointed to the side of the ground kite, and the two quietly walked to other camps, and saw the same scene. On the seal hall of these people, there is a faint layer of black gas!
After turning around the camp for a while, Xiaobao really looked more and more strange, but now it was too late to probe more clearly, because the two of them had already heard the movement of someone getting up!
In the nearest camp tent, he stole two military uniforms and went to the back of the tent to change them. At this moment, it was already dawn, and suddenly a loud military horn sounded not far away, which startled both of them!
It seems that it's time to get up! These Die Hard soldiers are really lazy, it's almost time, they have just gotten up, and Hu Xiaoren is staring around at the Domain Saint Pass not far away, if they see them in such a state, it is estimated that they would have called over a long time ago!
But where are the two of them hiding now? Although they are wearing the uniforms of the Yin Army, as long as someone asks, they will be exposed, and when the time comes, they will be surrounded by an army of 300,000 people, and it will not be a joke!
Thankfully, no one came to ask them, although the wake-up call was sounded, and those Die Hard soldiers also rubbed in the tent for a long time as if they hadn't heard it, before they came out one after another, but they were still listless, and it was rare to see people who were more conscious!
Xiaobao and Earth Kite glanced at each other, pretended to be confused, and walked in the direction of the general camp! The soldiers have all become like this, and the generals are also like this? If the entire military camp has become like this, then the Tiger Courage Army will be finished!
The two of them were still worried about moving forward at first, but although they met more and more people, there was no one who took care of them!
In fact, it is no wonder that the military camp of 300,000 troops is larger than the area of many towns, and the large school field of the Stygian Lake is only a hundred thousand people when it is crowded with people, and the school field here is smaller than the Styx, and the 300,000 people can't stand at all, and almost no one can know all the people and call them names!
So when they got to the back, the two didn't need to deliberately hide it, so they walked forward openly, but they all lowered their heads. After all, everyone looks sick and sick, and suddenly two people are full of energy shuttling through the crowd, which is really too conspicuous!
After walking around the camp for most of the day, no one could recognize them! These soldiers did not even come out of the drill, and after getting up, they lazily ate and wash their clothes, and some of them sat under the sun, polishing their weapons unhurriedly!
Such an army is worse than the defenders of the Heaven-Breaking City! How can they fight? Xiaobao really can't understand, in just a few days, why have all these people become like this? If they were poisoned, why did they have no signs of poisoning, no wails of pain, no physical torture, as if they just looked a little lazy, and had no other symptoms.
The earth kite whispered to Xiaobao: "Emperor Zun, I think it's very strange, I know that they are not quite right, but I can't see that there is any problem!"
Xiao Bao frowned, and asked him in a low voice, "You can't see the black qi on their Yin Hall?"
The earth kite was stunned for a moment and shook his head: "Black gas? Do they have black gas on their heads? Why didn't I see it?"
It turned out that only the red pupils could see the black qi shrouded in their seal hall, and others couldn't see it! Xiao Bao was even more strange to these people in his heart, and nodded to the earth kite and said: "I suspect that they have been poisoned, but this poison is very strange, it doesn't seem to take people's lives immediately, it just makes people lazy! You go to Tong Xiaofeng right now, ask him to hurry up, and lead the Qilin Army to come to the Domain Sacred Pass to station! Then go back to the barracks and take Danniang over, maybe she can find out the reason why these people look like this!"
The earth kite nodded, and whispered to Xiaobao, "Emperor Zun himself should be careful!" found an opportunity to part ways with Xiaobao and disappeared between the tents.
Xiaobao continued to wander around the camp, moving in the direction of the general camp, and after walking for about half an hour, he had already seen the point general platform outside the general camp!
The sound of the military horn sounded again, and it was already time for lunch! Xiaobao also stole a pair of dishes and chopsticks, followed everyone to join in the fun, made a bowl of vegetables, took a few cakes, squatted on the side and ate with a sullen head!
Although it looks like he hasn't eaten for a few days, Xiaobao eats very carefully. The food of the Die Hard Army is okay, and the Chinese cabbage stewed tofu tastes quite fragrant. Xiaobao wasn't hungry either, but he ate a whole bowl, even a few tortillas, and burped comfortably.
There was no problem with the meal, there was nothing in it. Xiaobao glanced left and right, and saw that a guy next to him was asleep with a rice bowl again, and the water bladder was placed beside him, so he quietly moved over, secretly picked up his kettle, pulled out the plug and smelled the inside, and there was really a strange smell.
After hesitating for a moment, he still took a sip, and felt the jerkiness in the water, which was almost difficult to swallow! He put down the water bladder, walked around the camp, and stole a few people's water bladders to taste them one by one, all of which were strange smells, and Xiaobao remembered that there seemed to be several wells near the tent camp on the west side of the school yard, and the water should have been drawn there.
I was trying to find a way to go to those wells to investigate, but I heard a "bang" drum sound in front of me!
Is it going to go on an expedition? Hu Xiao is coming? Xiaobao was shocked, and the people around him also stood up and looked around blankly. After all, it was a soldier, and he quickly reacted, this is the order to assemble!
So the camp was busy, and the troops began to assemble. Xiaobao couldn't walk now if he wanted to, so he had to work with everyone and stood at the end of a square.
Don't look at the appearance of all of them being lazy just now, this whole army has still recovered a bit of the fierceness of the previous Tiger Courage! Each team formed a battalion, each battalion formed an army, and soon the entire military camp was assembled, and Xiaobao's unit was taken out of the camp and stood in front of the Dianjiangtai because it was close to the general camp!
At this moment, the front of the general platform was already full of various troops, and there were 50,000 or 60,000 people in the black pressure, and a large number of troops were assembled on the middle road and in the open space in front of the battalion, and they did not come out!
