Chapter 510: Unlucky Emperor Qin
Dozens of people managed to escape from the city, but before they could rejoice, they were stopped by a gray elephant.
In less than half a minute, the gray elephant left, leaving behind a corpse.
In the city, wherever the fanged beasts passed, houses, trees, and people, all were destroyed, buildings were in ruins, and stumps and broken arms were scattered everywhere.
On the high ground, the black giant elephant's eyes flashed, and it opened its mouth to let out a high-pitched, clear roar.
When the demon beasts in and outside the city heard this, they all raised their heads to the sky and roared, and then accelerated the slaughter.
It turned out that it was the giant elephant who thought his subordinates were moving too slowly.
It has become a hell on earth, and in the capital, hundreds of miles away, it is a scene of singing and dancing.
This is because this morning the imperial court posted a list of articles, saying that under the wise command of the emperor to win Luobin, the demon beasts outside the city have been slaughtered, and the same is true everywhere, although there are still sporadic demon beasts doing evil, but there are no more waves.
The reason why there is such an article is to find a reasonable excuse for the next battle in the north to stabilize people's hearts.
As for how many kinds of demon beasts there are in the wild, and what are the numbers, Ying Luobin doesn't care at all, the only thought in his heart is to defeat the Ghost Face Army, kill Ye Feng and Ying Luoyue, and consolidate the imperial power.
As the old saying goes, if the situation inside the country is very serious, there is no reason to go out to send troops, so he concocted the so-called demon beast to be exterminated.
At this time, Ying Luobin was holding his favorite concubine to enjoy the song and dance.
A palace guard hurriedly rushed into the emperor's dormitory, and said breathlessly: "Your Majesty, something happened, Gao Cheng sent an urgent signal for help." ”
was swept away Yaxing, Ying Luobin was very displeased, and said: "Gaocheng is only four hundred miles away from the capital, what can happen there?"
"It's just, all the fuss. Ai Concubine said in a mocking tone: "It must be that Taishou accidentally touched the signal flare, Your Majesty is wise and wise, the Great Qin State is peaceful and peaceful, and Gaocheng is at the feet of the Son of Heaven, what can happen?"
Guotai Min'an?
This is definitely talking nonsense with open eyes, there are endless incidents of demon beasts hurting people, the Ghost Face Legion is eyeing the north, and a group of prisoners have just been robbed, and they have nothing to do with the four words of Guotai and Min'an.
But Ying Luobin still couldn't help but be complacent, and felt that what Concubine Ai said was polite,
The guard knelt on the ground and said, "Your Majesty, something really happened in Gaocheng, and there was news from the Flying Wing Bureau, saying that when someone was sent to check, dozens of miles away, you could hear the screams coming from the city!"
Ying Luobin frowned: "What the hell is going on?"
"Monsters are attacking. The guard said cautiously: "It is said that there are thousands of powerful demon beasts that have broken through the high city, and the defenders will be martyred on the spot, and the defenders and the residents of the city have been killed and injured countless ......."
"Nonsense!" Concubine Ai interrupted him and said in a cold voice: "Monsters attacking the city are simply ridiculous! Demon beasts are active in the wild, at most killing a few unlucky farmers, how can they attack a heavily guarded city!"
The guards were about to cry and said, "The little one doesn't dare to say anything, these are all messages sent by the Flying Wing Bureau, and they should be reliable." They also said that if they didn't send troops to rescue them quickly, Gaocheng would be finished!"
Concubine Ai said unrelentingly: "Your Majesty, it is obvious that someone is lying about the military situation......
"Wait!" Ying Luobin cut off Concubine Ai's words and said, "Whether it's true or not, I will know when I come to the scene in person, it is only twenty minutes from the capital to Gaocheng! ”
He thought of the edict issued in the morning, if Gao Cheng was really besieged by monsters, it would be tantamount to slapping himself in the face, and he had to block the news and not let the people know about it, but if it was false, he would strictly punish the rumor-mongers, and continue to appear in front of his subjects with the face of a holy king.
Ten minutes later, he came to the Flying Wing Bureau under the escort of several Bright Sky Realm martial artists, and ten medium-sized flying wings took off one after another, aiming at Gaocheng.
After a while, the fleet came to the sky above Gao Cheng.
Looking at the extremely tragic scene below, Ying Luobin was speechless, the demon beast was still raging, and as far as the eye could see, there were corpses lying in a pool of blood.
"How so?" he muttered.
The captain of the guard frowned and said: "Your Majesty, those demon beasts are very powerful, and the casualties of the defenders and residents have exceeded seventy percent, you quickly order the transfer of troops, otherwise Gaocheng will really be finished!"
"Is it useful to transfer troops, far water can't quench your thirst!" Win Luobin said in a deep voice: "By the time the army comes here, the people will have already died--light, come to collect the corpses?"
The captain frowned: "Please give the order, we can jump down and kill the demon beast, at least some people's lives can be saved." ”
Win Luobin didn't think about it and said, "No, your task is to protect me, not to save them!"
The captain gritted his teeth angrily, watching the demon beasts wreak havoc below, but he couldn't do anything!
He really wanted to say that even if everyone stayed on the flying wings, it would only play the role of filling the number of people, and the martial arts masters could not exert their combat effectiveness in the air, which was not much different from ordinary people, and if there were flying demon beasts, there was only one option to escape.
Call......
A yin wind blew, and Ying Luobin's face tightened: "What happened?"
"It's not good, a few giant eagles from the south, they look like demon beasts!" Someone shouted loudly: "The fleet is dispersed quickly, protect Your Majesty and leave." ”
Ying Luobin turned his head to look and saw six giant eagles, each with wings spread six or seven meters wide, and the huge bird had a sharp beak on its head, which was in the shape of a barb.
Ten flying wings spread out in all directions, except for the one that the emperor was in and returned directly to the capital, the other nine went in different directions, in order to attract the attention of the giant eagle and create an opportunity for the emperor to retreat.
The giant eagle flies very fast, and it dives down from a high altitude, and the flying wings are in a state of circling and slow flight just now, and they can't complete the acceleration for a while, so they don't have an advantage in speed.
The six giant eagles have sharp eyes, and like other demon beasts, they have intelligence that cannot be underestimated.
It was precisely because of this that they had their eyes on the wing where Win Robin was, because it was the only one flying backwards.
Ying Luobin inadvertently turned around, saw the giant eagle chasing after him, and was so frightened that he almost peed his pants: "What's the matter, why are they following me?"
The captain of the guard shook his head: "I don't know, it's not a good sign that they are blind to the other wings...... Your Majesty, I'm afraid they have the strength of the late stage of the Golden Body Realm!"
Ying Luobin's eyes widened, and his heart was half cold, but he immediately said, "The five of you are all Radiant Sky Realm martial artists, right, you can deal with them, right?"
He is relieving himself.
"I'm afraid it's difficult, we can't use the fighting power on the wing. The captain said helplessly.
"Huh?" Win Lobin was completely dumbfounded, and shouted hysterically: "Quick, speed up, speed up and get rid of them, if I have any three long and two short, you will not be able to eat and walk around." ”
The man in charge of piloting the flying wing clenched his teeth, he had already pulled the joystick to the end, because the flying wing was at full capacity, and it took a certain amount of time to accelerate.
And the giant eagle has already flown closer and closer, and although the other wings have turned and made it look like they are coming to help, their speed is also very slow, and it is impossible to reach before the giant eagle.
On the ground, the black giant elephant slowly raised its head and glanced into the air, its eyes full of pride, as if everything was under its control.
In the palace, Emperor Qin's concubine told him not to stop the drum music and singing and dancing, and continued to enjoy himself after Ying Luobin returned.
At this time, an attendant ran in in a panic and said in an anxious tone: "Oh no, Niangniang, Your Majesty, he ...... He ......"
"What's wrong with Your Majesty, tell me quickly!" the concubine asked with a glare.
"There are indeed monsters on the other side of Gaocheng...... His Majesty was inspecting in the air when he was attacked by a giant eagle. The chamberlain was a little incoherent and said, "Your Majesty, he ...... Although the guards tried their best to protect them, they were in the air and couldn't play their ......."
"To the point, how is Your Majesty?" the concubine's voice raised an octave.
The chamberlain was stunned for a moment, and then replied: "Your Majesty is injured, his right leg was pecked by a giant eagle, the flying wings landed in the palace, and the imperial doctors all passed." I heard that the beak of the giant eagle is poisonous, and the blood flowing from His Majesty's wound is black and purple......"
Aifei picked up the hem of her skirt and ran out, chanting the word "Your Majesty" in her mouth.
The eunuchs and palace maids also hurriedly followed, the musicians and dancers were all stunned, and the master did not speak, should he retreat, or continue to play?
In the palace in front, it has long been a mess.
Dozens of imperial physicians diagnosed the emperor in turn, but no one could say what kind of poison he had.
Because up to now, the Qin people knew very little about demon beasts, especially flying demon beasts, which had only appeared in the past few days, and no one even thought that there was a toxin on the eagle's beak.
The captain of the guard was sweating profusely, and said in a low voice: "You should hurry up and get an idea, if something happens to Your Majesty, everyone will have to lose their heads." ”
There was a deep wound on his right calf, bleeding black and purple blood, and the smell was extremely fishy.
He himself had fainted, and his breath was weak.
It was unfortunate enough to say, dozens of people drove the flying wings to Gaocheng, and he was the only one who was pecked, and the giant eagle seemed to have a grudge against him, and only attacked him.
The imperial doctor at the head smiled bitterly and said, "General, we have never heard of the poison in Your Majesty, and we don't know how to do it!"
"Then use all the usual detoxification methods and see which one works. The captain shouted.
This can be regarded as a rush to the doctor, but there is no way, rather than consuming the emperor to poison and die, it is better to use a dead horse as a live horse doctor, maybe there will be unexpected gains.
"That's all I can do!" The old imperial physician began to instruct his companions: "You two immediately start it, cut the wound with a silver knife, and drain the poisonous blood; you, you, you, and you, and you, the five of you are responsible for feeding Your Majesty the Antidote Pill, and each one must be fed, and the dose must be doubled! You are responsible for taking His Majesty's pulse, carefully observing the changes in his condition, and you are responsible for recording and analyzing the effects of different detoxification pills." The rest of the people began to think of a way to cure His Majesty no matter what today, otherwise everyone would have to lose their heads. ”
The imperial doctors began to get busy, and the ministers who heard the wind gathered at the gate of the palace to inquire about the situation, and the ladies of the harem ran over crying and shouting, if they hadn't been stopped by the guards, I don't know what the chaos would have been.
