18 · Soul Burial (Part I)

[He crouches down, grabs the piece of meat that is about to turn into mud with his hand, and stuffs it into his mouth contentedly. Then, as when he came, he silently disappeared into the dull and blazing east. 】

"Save ...... Help ......"

A faint cry for help came from the corpses all over the field, and the candlelit wooden hall was crawling with flesh that was not human-shaped, as if it had been watered with sulfuric acid. The tragedy is not only happening here, but also in residential areas, where it is also attacked by rotting human bombs.

For a time, the strongest main force attacking the Dragon King had been destroyed.

The starry sky still shines without hesitation, and the pale night is full of blood.

"Help...... Save—"

The warrior, who was still conscious, saw a foot in the grass beside him. He twisted his head eagerly, trying to ask for help from the able-bodied people around him, but the muscles and bones of his neck had been corroded, and the consequence of forcibly twisting it was the separation of his body and head. Before the man next to him could speak, he had already lost his breath.

The man standing was indifferent, staring coldly at the bloody scene in front of him.

"Good. Very good. ”

He whispered.

Arrogantly and excitedly admiring their own masterpieces.

He crouched down freely, grabbed the piece of meat that was about to turn into mud with his hands, and stuffed it into his mouth contentedly. Then, as when he came, he silently disappeared into the dull and blazing east.

"Boom-"

Dozens of mountain gods rose from the ground, opened their mouths of coveted blood, and engulfed the sea of corpses.

*

In the support camp, in the command tent, everyone showed an unbelievable look and listened to Chen Jian tell what had just happened.

The reinforcements were composed of local soldiers and Fu chivalrous and generals, whose strength was not enough to resist the mountain gods, and in the face of Chen Jian, a warrior who came from the main position, they were naturally respectful, but what made them feel uneasy and disdainful was that he actually described Fang Cai's affairs so appallingly, and he did not have the demeanor of a strong man at all.

After listening to this, the battalion commander with the highest position in the reinforcement army was the first to speak.

"You mean, the main army has been wiped out?"

It's cold, and the wind is bone-chilling.

"I don't know how many people survived," Ms. Chen said, "but the area is no longer accessible." ”

The battalion commander didn't know what to do, he was supposed to obey the commander's dispatch and be a competent messenger, but now, ......

"What about the chief, the chief...... Dead?"

"I haven't seen the chief yet, I'm here today. ”

"Newspaper—" the herald walked into the tent, "Hero, the heroine's mood has settled and she has fallen asleep. ”

"Got it. ”

Before Chen Jian entered the command tent, he handed over the frightened Chen Chan to the temporary medical hall - he felt that letting Chen Chan listen to everything that had just happened by his side would only stimulate her again.

It's just that Chen Chan's "soul-pulling burial" made him haunted.

He hadn't heard of "soul burial", and more importantly, Chen Chan also said "Hundred Bitter Teachings". You know, she was suspected of being the Thousand Hands Poison Girl herself. Could it be that her memory has returned?

Things suddenly became more and more, and Chen Jian was in a hurry. He said to the battalion commander: "Order to all soldiers that they are absolutely not allowed to approach the main camp. ”

"Good!"

As everyone knows, this is just a delaying tactic. If the commander-in-chief, as commander-in-chief, dies in the line of duty, what will happen to these weak warriors and soldiers?

Chen Jian said goodbye to them for a while and hurried back to the hospital.

As the herald said, Chen Chan was already lying down, and the medical woman who was guarding her was wiping the cold sweat from her face.

"Hero, you're here. When the medical woman saw Chen Jian, she bowed slightly. "She was so frightened that she seemed to be having nightmares. The doctor girl put down the towel and gently held Chen Chan's hand.

"She's not hurt, is she?"

"There are no wounds on the body. ”

Chen Jian nodded.

The way to escape was too dark, and he couldn't guarantee that Chen Chan hadn't been splashed with pieces of meat, but now he could finally slow down.

"Please, you continue to take care of her. ”

"Don't worry. ”

As soon as the medical woman's words fell, there was a vigorous footstep sound downstairs, and Chen Jian couldn't help frowning when she heard it, raising her vigilance.

"That's my master. ”

The medicine woman smiled apologetically and got up at the same time to greet the owner of the makeshift medical center.

The person who came was an old man with a white beard, more than half a hundred years old, and his body was still strong because he often went up the mountain to collect medicine. After he entered the house, he immediately found Chen Jian and said straight to the point: "Chen Daxia, contemptible Yang Mo." Please repeat what just happened. ”

Chen Jian felt that this old man seemed to be knowledgeable and might know something, so he briefly explained according to his request.

After Yang Mo heard this, his eyeball bones turned so fast that he almost fell out of his eye socket, and the eyes of the medical woman on the side became much more cold after hearing this.

Chen Jian observed the expressions of the two, stopped making a sound, and waited for them to speak first.

"Master," said the healer, "this symptom is somewhat similar to the death of a herd of spotted deer in Eagle Bird Valley a few years ago. ”

Isn't Eagle Bird Valley the location of the Hundred Bitter Sect? Chen Jian looked at Chen Chan without leaving a trace.

Matched with her, is she really a thousand-handed poisonous girl? No, the issue of age cannot be ignored, Rose knows that the thousand-armed poisonous girl is not so young.

There is another angle that has always been overlooked, she may be the daughter of a thousand-handed poisonous girl.

Everyone thinks that a ruthless person like the Thousand-Handed Poisonous Girl will not have a child's affection, so they ignore this. But who can be sure that she has never raised children?

Yang Mo's words interrupted Chen Jian: "That's right, the corpse is swollen, and the infection is like a plague, just like back then-Chen Daxia, I want you to take us to the place of the incident." ”

"You're crazy!"

"Chen Daxia doesn't know anything," the doctor immediately explained, "Our master and apprentice have a lot to do with this matter. ”

"If the hero doesn't take us, we'll go by ourselves!"

Yang Mo stubbornly got up and immediately began to pack the necessary tools.

"Shen Ya," he called the doctor's name, "you clean up too." ”

Chen Jian looked at the crazy master and apprentice at a loss, thinking about how to find these two living treasures to join the reinforcements.

It didn't take long for the two to clean up.

Shen Ya bowed to Chen Jian: "You can stay with her." ”

She wiped away the fine hair that had slipped in front of her and followed Yang Mo out of the room.

Chen Jian stared blankly at the door, recalling Shen Ya's expression.

Her eyes were deliberately disappointed and scared, and she wished I could go with them. Yes, even if they have a connection to this matter, they are just ordinary healers, and they must be hoping that someone can protect them.

But I'm sorry, I can't leave Chen Chan to protect you.

Chen Jian's gaze turned back to sharp in an instant.

The enemy could control the dead to carry out a plague-like attack, and he had to stay by Chen Chan's side, not daring to move half a step.

Although, now that the entire camp has been placed under martial law at his suggestion, it is impossible to predict how the new human bomb will attack. What can be done now is to protect Chen Chan's safety and wait for someone who can lead the overall situation to appear.

The man soon appeared.

There was a commotion outside, and the sleepy-eyed Chen Jian immediately got up, pushed open the window, and watched the situation in the camp.

He heard the soldiers as if they were saying "Chief".

It seems that the Archon escaped.
