Fighting people, an ancient and mysterious profession. You think they're just nighttime chimes? No, much more than that......

Li Xiao didn't know where Luo Haoyang was going, but followed him silently - although Li Xiao didn't know where he got his confidence, but following him, he would always find a place to stay.

The street was deserted, occasionally seeing a glimmer of light, and faintly hearing a few gongs:

"It's dry, watch out for the candles—" was the voice of the watchman, and, it seemed, was getting closer.

"Oo-oh-" Now, Li Xiao could clearly hear the sound of the gong.

"Hey," Li Xiao patted Luo Haoyang's shoulder and swallowed his saliva secretly, "On this big night, I'm afraid it's not a good thing to meet a watchman, right?" ”

"Well, it's a bit tricky."

In fact, Li Xiao did not do anything about the detailed information describing this empty dynasty as Yin Meilin said, but on the contrary, he read the information thoroughly and memorized it very well - because he knew Wang Mengqi too well, what he was afraid of was that Wang Mengqi had violated one of the taboos.

Fighting people is an important existence in this overhead dynasty.

Watchmen rest during the day and work at night, so they have few friends and disdain to communicate with outsiders.

During the day, they are dispensable; At night, they are the masters of this street market.

Originally, this was the duty of the tomb keeper, but because most of the tomb guards had extreme personalities, they needed to communicate with each other.

In this overhead dynasty, the emperors of all dynasties have attached importance to them, and at the same time taboo them-

The emperors knew that it was necessary to settle relations with the watchmen, because they were the equivalent of messengers of the underworld; There is a good saying: If the exchanges between the two countries do not come to the envoy, if they provoke the watchman, not to mention the rigidity of the relationship with the underworld, the watchman will definitely not let go of himself.

How powerful can a small messenger be? Don't say anything else, let's just talk about the troops, as soon as the watchman strikes the gong, thousands of dead corpses fight for him, not to mention how many people are buried under a city, that is, the soldiers who died in battle are used by him, and the emperor's army, the number of sesame mung beans, can compare to him?

And, in order to ensure that accidents do not happen, whenever a watchman encounters a living person at night, he will sacrifice that person to the dead body to protect the dead body for his own use in the future.

For this, the emperors were distressed.

So they made an agreement with the watchmen: as long as the watchmen no longer arrested people at night, they promised that all the condemned prisoners would be given to the watchmen and the dead bodies.

Therefore, when those condemned prisoners are executed, it seems that the executioner is taking people's lives, but in fact they are the ghosts of the dead corpses. And the watchman would also make a request to the emperor in due course to make the death penalty more brutal - because the worse the corpse tortured the condemned prisoners, the happier the corpse became.

Even so, the watchman was still not satisfied. When they walk at night, they silently take their lives, and even make those who are killed disappear without a trace......

However, fortunately, the watchman is still sensible, and he will not take his life without restraint, nor will he take the initiative to find those who are really in a hurry at night, but if the watchman really takes the initiative to find you, please be prepared to be a death row prisoner......

Now Li Xiao and Luo Haoyang's situation is like this - they are about to face the watchman and his dead body.

"Oooo

Suddenly, the wind rose, and the leaves on the ground came and scattered on the road regularly, looking like a carpet, but only woven from dead leaves.

"When-", an earth-shaking gong sounded, Li Xiao and Luo Haoyang couldn't resist it, and couldn't help covering their ears.

After this loud bang, the gong ceased abruptly, and only the unlit lanterns on both sides of the street swayed in the wind......

A person walked out of the corner opposite Li Xiao and Luo Haoyang at some point, wearing a cloak on his head, a torn tarpaulin that could barely keep out the cold, straw sandals on the soles of his feet had been worn out, his clothes were ragged, his body was rickety, he was holding a stick in one hand and a gong in the other.

Although this person was dressed extremely rudely, the two of them clearly felt a strong coercion!

The man walked slowly on, stepping on the carpet of dead leaves, as if it had been born for him;

What is even more strange is that with every step the man takes, a pair of lanterns on both sides of the street are lit up to illuminate him;

The dead leaves that he had stepped on were all scattered in the wind the moment the lantern was lit up, as if nothing had happened.

While Li Xiao and Luo Haoyang were surprised, the man had already come to the two of them, only five steps away from them.

An entire street was lit up with lanterns, making it look unusually bright in the pitch-black imperial city.

At this time, Li Xiao was the first to speak:

"People say that this watchman is more rational than the grave keeper, so I don't think Your Excellency will careless about people's lives. On my first visit with a friend, I don't know where to bump into Mr., please give me some advice. ”

Hearing this, the watchman raised his head, and looked at Li Xiao with a pair of tired and arrogant eyes, Li Xiao instantly shrugged Luo Haoyang beside him, and whispered:

"What's going on now?"

“…… I don't know, you drag him first, I'll take a look. Luo Haoyang responded, and there was no one immediately.

Li Xiao stroked his forehead: Hey, hey, what's the same? I'll do the physically demanding work, and you'll come the brain-consuming work, can we change it next time?

Seeing that Luo Haoyang had disappeared without a trace, the watchman immediately made a gesture to chase after him, but was stopped by Li Xiao:

"Sir, let's explain it first." On his face, there was a fierce smile in his politeness; In his eyes, it is the fortitude of killing and decisiveness.

The watchman seemed to be enraged, and with a wave of his hand, he only heard a "oh-" sound, and Li Xiao didn't have time to take precautions, and was shocked out of more than a dozen steps.

"Poof-", Li Xiao's throat was sweet, a mouthful of blood burst out, staining half of his lips red, and he couldn't help but gently caress his chest:

it! Is this beater a monster? The attack power is so amazing?!

After the watchman knocked down Li Xiao, he continued to look for Luo Haoyang, but he was hit by two lanterns and hit the back of the head.

"Whoosh-" Three or four more lanterns passed straight past him and stood in front of him.

The watchman was hit, and he was already on fire, but now he was stopped by the lantern he lit, and he was angry, so he turned around and struck the gong, only to hear the sound of "dang", and a sound wave flew towards Li Xiao again.

Li Xiao quickly took off the lantern to resist, and gradually approached the guard.

There is only one weapon for this watchman, and that is the gong in his hand, if he blocks this gong, he can delay for a while longer! But...... We'll have to watch more.

Sure enough, when the watchman saw Li Xiao getting closer and closer, he became more angry, instantly shifting and transposing, and striking the gong every time he went. His body was so fast that the sound wave hit Li Xiao from all directions.

Oh my boy, do you think my sound waves are only one-way? Hmph, look how arrogant you are now!

Li Xiao only felt a few gusts of wind galloping, and then he noticed the sound waves from different directions, and he was shocked, and immediately lined up the lanterns in front of him, dodging a few more deadly sound waves, and kicked up a few lanterns to resist the sound waves that had not yet been dodged, and the sound waves that he dodged directly hit several lanterns, and rushed towards the watchman with them.

The watchman was caught off guard and took a few heavy blows.

Li Xiao's tactics against the guards were roughly understood, so he used the lanterns on both sides more skillfully.

The guards were defeated and retreated, but they still refused to admit defeat, and finally, "Dong-", the momentum was so grand, the sound was shocking, and Li Xiao was thrown more than a dozen steps away.

This time, Li Xiao is really injured:

The lanterns that surrounded him were shattered, and none of them were spared; But the power of the sound wave only increased, and the sound wave roared and rushed towards Li Xiao, giving him a fatal blow in Li Xiao's stunned state!

"Uh-" Li Xiao was shocked and fell to the ground hard, he instantly felt that the bones in his body were about to break, but I don't know if it was because of the mercy of the watchmen, he could barely stand up.

The next moment, Li Xiao saw the most shocking scene he had ever seen in his life:

Hundreds of dead bodies crawled up from the ground, all with hideous faces, with bloody mouths, as if they were about to swallow people in one bite, exuding a ghostly light, staggering, and twisting their bodies, as if they were venting their dissatisfaction with being manipulated and manipulated, as if they had come to the filming site of "Resident Evil", but here are real corpses!

Li Xiao remembered that Yin Meilin had given him the information that the combat effectiveness of the dead corpses controlled by the watchmen was evaluated according to their combat effectiveness during their lifetimes, and on this basis, it was increased by at least 50%!

The corpses in front of you were dressed in different clothes, most of them were civilian attire, but there were many samurai in battle armor - their combined combat strength would make a very formidable team!

Li Xiao has also faced thousands of troops, and the other party is still a strictly trained and well-equipped army, and he has never been afraid - that is because he also has more advanced equipment than the other party.

But now, to challenge an ancient army single-handedly, without any weapons, isn't it a fool's dream?! What's more, he was seriously injured!

Li Xiao admitted that the most terrifying thing he had ever encountered in his life was fighting against the dead corpses of the guards, which was even more terrifying and shocking than when he opened the An Lizhu candle in the future!

...... No way! I can't die here, it's just a virtual world, can it kill me?

Li Xiao thought, his hands hung weakly on his sides, coughed up a mouthful of blood violently, and struggled to raise his head, the unyielding eyes had already shown the tenacity in his heart:

Luo Haoyang, if you don't come again, I will be brave and righteous......

"Ahh

......

Blood splashed all over Li Xiao's body, some fresh, some already solidified, and a splashed ink painting was outlined on his shirt, which was dazzlingly red and dazzling in the dark light;

His arms were already weak and weak, but he refused to put down the hoe in his hand, picked up the halberd blade dropped by the dead corpse of the soldier on the ground, and continued to wield;

......

The watchman stood quietly on the side and watched the play, seeing the embarrassment of the proud son at the moment, a sneer quietly appeared on his face-

He's going to wait, wait until that guy has no strength, and then give it to the king who gallops on the battlefield—

You know, that king, but he likes to be a sacrifice that struggles so much.

......

Finally, Li Xiao collapsed to the ground due to collapse, and couldn't get up anymore, only those unwilling eyes remained, watching the beater approach.

The watchman provoked Li Xiao's chin and played with the taste:

"Why, isn't Fang so proud?"

"Huh!" Li Xiao scoffed.

In the next second, Li Xiao saw that the watchman was kicked away, not to mention the scene!

That guy is finally here!

When Luo Haoyang kicked down the watchman, he smashed the gong that the beater was proud of.

"Brake-", with a single sound, the ghost light of the entire street suddenly disappeared, and the army of dead corpses just now also turned into green smoke and dissipated, only the blood stains on Li Xiao's body were still telling everything that happened.

"Old man Li!" Luo Haoyang hurriedly ran to help Li Xiao, Li Xiao looked at Luo Haoyang's running figure, and only smiled slightly, and then Luo Haoyang's image gradually blurred in his eyes, until the vision was dark......
