Xiaohou Town originally had a population of 150,000. >8)1> After several years of continuous plundering and slaughter of the Blood Spirit Root, there are now only more than 40,000 people left. Nearly twenty Venus powerhouses under Ling Yu, together with the remaining one hundred members of the original field team, divided into five routes, quickly swept through Xiaohou Town, for nearly four hours, they confirmed that they had traveled to every corner of Xiaohou Town, and more and more people were rescued, and in the end, they could no longer find a single parasite.

The battle continued for another day and a night. At dawn the next day, the entire Xiaohou Town was in disarray, and the originally dilapidated town was even more dilapidated and barren at this time. The mayor's office building was also completely in ruins. Everywhere in the town, there was a faint sound of crying.

The nearly 20,000 residents in the city who had just escaped the control of the Blood Spirit Root were already frightened, and they decided to move directly to Dahou Town. Another 20,000 people, under the leadership of the mayor, stayed firmly to rebuild Xiaohou Town. They are full of affection for the town and full of hope for the future. However, they have to face the painful reality.

After a day and a night of rest, Jin Ling'er has basically recovered at this time. He and Ling Yu stood quietly on the ruined city, their eyes set on the distance.

This battle was a heavy blow to the Blood Spirit Root, but Ling Yu's heart was always heavy, and there was an indescribable pain, he heard the cries of those who had lost their relatives, and he saw the ruins in the city. He was so powerless and helpless. He hoped that these people would be safe, even if they were poor, but now, he couldn't.

"Don't think about Ling Yu, we tried our best, this result is already very good." Jin Ling'er turned her head and said, "These things are by no means something that one person can bear, but the whole nation needs to bear them." Our strength is still too weak now, we need to be strong, and we need to have a strong team. ”

Ling Yu glanced at her and nodded slightly.

At this moment, Zhu Yunchuan came to him: "Ling Yu, I just received news that the Moon Dragon Gang has recently made a big move. ”

Ling Yu was taken aback, the biggest worry in the rear of this trip was the Moon Dragon Gang.

When Ling Yu went to Dawning City, Jing Yuelong was severely injured. Now that two months have passed, it seems that Jing Yuelong's injuries have healed.

"This thing doesn't know whether it's alive or dead." Ling Yu said hatefully and set his eyes on Zhu Yunchuan.

Zhu Yunchuan touched his beard and said: "According to the insider report, the Yuelong Gang was instigated by Lin Zongheng and prepared to attack Luohong Villa, and the specific time is uncertain. ”

Ling Yu's brows furrowed slightly. Although Lin Zongheng of Luohong Villa was sacked last time, he was seriously injured in the end. These Ling Yu knew, but Ling Yu didn't know the red light coming from the ground.

"...... over there in Jianglong Town," Ling Yu seemed to want to say something.

"I just talked to Mayor Pan Chuanming on the phone, there is no abnormal situation, half of the people who fled have returned to Jianglong Town, and these people have been lifted from parasitism by him." Yao Ping said.

Ling Yu nodded: "If that's the case, let's go directly to Luohong Mountain Villa." ”

Everyone was slightly stunned.

Ma Xiaotian said slowly: "We have killed four Blood Ancestors, more than twenty Blood Spirit powerhouses with the strength of Venus, and the damage caused to the Blood Spirit Root is not small. It's hard for them to do anything in a short period of time. ”

Ling Yu said, "Not bad. If we stay here, it is impossible to attack Yinlong Mountain now, in this case, it is better to go back and expand our power as soon as possible, and at that time, we will wipe out Yinlong Mountain again!" ”

"How long are we going to stay here?" Zhao Dashan asked.

Ling Yu shook his head: "It seems that the danger here has not been completely lifted, we will rest here for two days, and we will go out the day after tomorrow." Ling Yu said decisively, and then turned his gaze to Li Dongzhi of the Sand Wolf Clan and Luo Tianhao of the Mountain Eagle Clan: "The total number of your two clans is about sixty people, and all of them are Silver Star powerhouses. As the two teams of the original field team, you still return to Chonghe County and Tailing County to assist the Protector in the defense. I'll be in touch with you at any time and send supplies regularly. ”

"But......" Li Dongzhi seemed to want to go with Ling Yu, but he couldn't say it. After following Ling Yu and his party for nearly a month, he admired this field team so much.

Ling Yu smiled, patted him on the shoulder and said, "Don't worry, you have to protect your relatives, improve yourself as soon as possible, show your strength, and wait for us to come back and attack Yinlong Mountain together." ”

He turned his gaze to Nan Xiaoliang and Tong Gang again: "The two of you, you also have to set up two other teams, report the list, your usual work will cooperate with the national protection team, check the blood spirit root parasites that have mixed into the city, once there is a large-scale invasion, immediately notify the general team, and when the time comes, I will send a master to help." ”

The four of them just nodded, but there was some uneasiness in their eyes.

Ma Xiaotian smiled and said, "The Western Fourth Route Army of the original field team, haha, very good." He coughed dryly and said, "Don't worry, I'll stay too, and if there's anything I can't solve, you can inform me immediately." ”

"Grandpa Ma, why don't you go back and take a look?" Ling Yu asked.

Ma Xiaotian shook his head: "I'm used to staying here, I don't want to see miscellaneous people, and besides, I haven't found Lord Bahai yet, I believe that he must be somewhere in the west." ”

Ling Yu nodded.

The eyes of the four people were shining with excitement. With such a big backer, they won't be afraid of anyone.

……

Another morning. Although the weather is still cold, the sky is clear without a trace of clouds, which is a rare good weather.

A group of about 1,000 refugees, uprooted from the improvised camps, carrying their own luggage and carrying carts on their shoulders, were marching to the far south. From time to time, worn-out buses rushed by, leaving behind puffs of dust and the choking smell of diesel. They were the refugees who came out of Xiaohou Town yesterday morning, and their final destination was Dahou Town, which was more than 400 kilometers away.

Behind them, there are two or three more such teams. They would have to walk for at least ten days or so to reach Dahou Town, and as for what would await them in Dahou Town, they didn't know.

"Mom, I want to drink water." A girl of seven or eight years old dressed in pink wiped the beads of sweat from her face and said to the middle-aged woman next to her, her red and simple face was filled with an excited smile.

The woman took out a plastic kettle from the blue flower bag in the crook of her arm, handed it to her, and said, "Lil, are you tired?" ”

The girl blinked and shook her head with a pair of big smart eyes: "Mom, how long do we have to go?" ”

"We've been walking for a whole day, and we'll have to go for ten days." The woman sighed, "I escaped in such a hurry, I really don't know if it's right or wrong." ”

"It's fun, it's better if you walk for a month." The girl handed the kettle back to her mother, turned and jumped up and down the line of refugees, these children had rarely been out of the city since childhood, and of course they were excited to see the vast expanse of the wilderness.

"Sister-in-law, Brother Ma's family is not leaving, they want to go back." A young man in a black cotton jacket came to the middle-aged woman with a smile, he glanced at the jumping girl and said, "I'm afraid your family Li'er can't walk." ”

The middle-aged woman handed the kettle in her hand to the young man and said, "Dawei, who said no, orphans and widows, I am also worried." ”

The young man waved his hand, refused the kettle, and said with a smile: "Why don't we go back sister-in-law, there are at least 20,000 people in the city, besides, it is impossible for the field team to leave us alone, let's see what they can do." ”

The middle-aged woman hesitated. She put her hand on her head in front of her, looked at the group in front of her, and then looked at the way she came. The fleeing procession has been grouped together.

"Sister-in-law, let's go, I'll help you carry Li'er, at most night, we will go back to Xiaohou Town." Youth are also trying to convince middle-aged women.

The women looked ahead again, and there were people returning, but in small numbers. The distant gray-white official road was almost submerged by the yellow sand of the previous two days. She gritted her teeth again in the end: "Okay, if you don't leave, if you want to die, you will die in Xiaohou Town!" ”

She immediately beckoned to the little girl not far away: "Li'er, Li'er, let's go back!" ”

A few people who walked past her looked at her.

The young man nodded: "Okay, sister-in-law, let's go back, I always feel that this trip will not be too smooth, let's go back as soon as possible." ”

"Dawei, listen to you, let's go!" The woman took one of the girl's small hands and followed the young man back.

"We rested at the old arsenal site at noon and promised to be back in town in the evening." The young man said as he walked. The former site of the Houjiaying Arsenal, a factory a hundred years ago, 20 kilometers south of Xiaohou Town, is said to have imitated the nuclear bomb of thousands of people in the early years. Although it has long since fallen into ruins, the ruins of the buildings and courtyards on it still exist, making it a good place to shelter from the wind and rain.

The three of them went against the grain all the way north, fleeing in one group after another, and occasionally familiar people would stop to talk to them.

"Bai Wei boy, do you have a crush on Sister-in-law Li'er's girl? Start setting now? A big man with a full beard said to the young man with a smile.

"Uncle Liu, don't talk nonsense." The young man also replied with a smile, his eyes glancing at Li'er who was jumping in front of him from time to time. I didn't get bored along the way.

At noon, when the last fleeing team was seen marching south, the former site of the arsenal was already in sight. The overall ruins of the old site of the Houjiaying Arsenal are 40,000 or 50,000 square meters, and on the remnants of several collapsed halls, there are several huge concrete stone strips obliquely, and the triangular space under the remnant wall is not large, but it is just for people to sit down and shelter from the wind and rain.

In the distance, a dozen townspeople sat in various parts of the ruins, eating dry food, stopping to rest, ready to head north for a while.

At this moment, someone suddenly pointed to the western sky and shouted loudly. Bai Wei was startled, turned his head to look at the sky on the ancient side, and saw a dark cloud rushing towards the fleeing team in the south at a very fast speed.
