Chapter 16: Cute Dragon Face
As soon as Liao Yanqi gave the order, he heard Sang Luo say, "Don't waste stardust, let these soldiers retreat." ”
Sang Luo grabbed the white paper fan and stepped forward, directly cutting the throat of a mutant with the short knife hidden in the paper fan, and the person fell directly to the ground after being stabbed. Seeing this, Liao Yanqi also rushed forward with a knife, and the two cooperated with each other, and wiped out all those deviants in a moment.
Then, the two of them turned to look at the man who was still standing there covering his chest, his face full of pain.
The man's face was covered with sweat, beads of sweat the size of soybeans, and he could see the incomparable pain, and raised his hand to Sang Luo, as if he wanted to ask for help.
While Sang Luo stared at the man, the hand behind his back had already pulled out a piece of talisman paper from his waist and waited for it.
Suddenly, the man began to vomit, and at the same time as he spit out a ball of white paste-like stuff from his mouth, his chest exploded directly, but the white paste-like thing jumped up directly and threw himself towards Sang Luo, Sang Luo dodged to avoid it, and the thing did not stop, but pounced directly on Tang Xiaohao.
"Xiaohao!" Sang Luo subconsciously threw the rune paper towards the white object, but it was too late, the thing had already arrived in front of Tang Xiaohao's eyes.
Finished! Just when these two words appeared in Liao Yanqi's mind, Tang Xiaohao miraculously avoided it, and the moment he turned around, he grabbed the cloth bag in the hands of the soldier next to him and directly scattered the stardust inside.
After the white sand in the cloth bag was sprinkled on top of the white object, the white object began to bubble and smoke when it hit the ground, and soon evaporated without a trace.
Sang Luo turned to look at the rest of the people, who either sat down on the ground in fright, or vomited from extreme fear, and the innkeeper was also seriously injured, and he died before he could explain his last words.
Sang Luo looked at the deviants on the ground and said something very strange: "Why does this kind of monster also appear in the gods?" ”
Although the new crisis has been lifted again, a new problem has come again, Xiao Xuan, who had changed into a decanter before, has obviously infected other people again, so are the rest of the people here all infected?
Liao Yanqi walked up to Sang Luo and said: "Great strategist, these people who have been infected for the second time, their strength and speed are far inferior to the previous ones, and they can also be killed with ordinary weapons, I just don't understand, what is the white thing just now?" ”
Sang Luo frowned: "It stands to reason that it will take at least six to twelve hours to turn into a carapace after being infected, but these people just now, it should be less than two hours before they came into contact." ”
Liao Yanqi said again: "I'm afraid that the people here are all infected, so it's better to ...... before they mutate."
After speaking, Liao Yanqi made a gesture of waving a knife.
Before Sang Luo could express himself, Tang Xiaohao walked directly between the two: "General Liao, you won't forget, the people here also include the three of us, right?" You mean, we got rid of the flat-headed people, and then we all stood here and stabbed each other? I don't mind if you come first, come, give me your knife first. ”
Liao Yanqi was speechless, he naturally just wanted to kill everyone except himself, Sang Luo and Tang Xiaohao.
Sang Luo said: "General Liao is reasonable, and what Tang Gongzi said is right." ”
Sure enough, he is a great strategist, and no one can be offended by what he says. Tang Xiaohao squinted at Sang Luo.
Liao Yanqi explained: "I'm just worried about another accident. ”
Sang Luo looked at the people opposite: "I don't know what the infection route is, but it's just a good idea to clean up all the people here." ”
Liao Yanqi immediately asked: "Ask the Great Strategist, what is the best policy?" ”
Tang Xiaohao interjected again: "The best policy is, you tell me first, what is this armor?" I don't want to die an unknown death. ”
Liao Yanqi soothed: "Tang Gongzi, as long as I am ......"
"As long as you're here, I'll have a companion on the way to Huangquan in the Nine Domains, right?" Tang Xiaohao said expressionlessly, "I'm already in it, does it make sense for you to hide it from me?" Or are you going to wait until tomorrow evening to wipe out all the people here to avoid leaking the news? ”
Liao Yanqi glanced at Sang Luo, bowed his head and said nothing.
Sang Luo called Tang Xiaohao to the inn kitchen, Tang Xiaohao thought that he was going to explain, who would have thought that Sang Luo would suddenly shoot at him, and hit his throat, and the shot was a killing move.
The instinctive reaction made Tang Xiaohao avoid it and start to fight back at the same time, but his hand stopped as soon as he was about to attack Sang Lu, and then that hippie smile appeared on his face again: "Brother Luo, why are you scaring me?" ”
Sang Luo sneered: "Even if the white thing just now pounced on Liao Yanqi, he couldn't dodge, not only did you easily dodge, but also took the stardust of the soldiers and scattered it, you have been practicing this kung fu for more than ten years, right?" ”
Tang Xiaohao continued to pretend to be stupid: "What kung fu?" I was just an instinctive reaction to survive! ”
Sang Luo said again: "When I tried to test you before, I knew that you don't need to kill the move, you won't avoid it, and you won't fight back, so I hit you directly by the throat, sure enough, you not only dodged, but also immediately counterattacked, and the opportunity was well grasped, if you have a short knife in your hand, I will die." ”
Tang Xiaohao frowned and said, "You drink fake wine, right?" Don't drink it, it's not good for your brain, you play slowly in the kitchen, I'm leaving. ”
Sang Luo unfolded the fan and said with a smile: "Liao Yanqi's brain is relatively dull, and he hasn't reacted yet, when he reacts, he will inform Mu Yinghao of this matter, and Mu Yinghao will tell Nanrong Qufeng again, and the people of Nanrong's family will know that you Tang Xiaohao is not a loser or a disciple, but a man with both civil and military skills, a burly body, and can fight horses into the court at any time, so what will be the consequences?" ”
Hearing this, Tang Xiaohao turned around and returned to Sang Luo, and continued to smile: "I am indeed an aspirant, but I am a hemorrhoid with hemorrhoids...... Brother Luo, if you make a big joke, you will die. ”
Sang Luo's face sank: "You also know that people will die?" Since you are ready to bury yourself in the soil, then cover it, don't show the slightest edge, not only for you, but also for your father, and for this world that has not yet been peaceful. ”
Tang Xiaohao pretended to understand and smiled.
Sang Luo continued: "You don't inquire about the Jia, it won't do you any good, if the secret behind this matter is already known, then you are really not far from death." Now you need to worry about whether you are infected or not, if we are all infected, no one will be able to get out of the inn alive. ”
Tang Xiaohao asked, "Then how do I know if I am infected?" ”
Sang Luo said: "Normally, it takes six to twelve hours for an infected person to mutate, and the characteristic of the mutation is that the eyes will glow red in the setting sun. But this time is different, not only has the speed of the mutation accelerated, but also, the people after the mutation are different from the ones found before, so you and I must be ready to die. ”
Tang Xiaohao laughed when he heard this, but when he saw Sang Luo's serious face, he quickly put away his smile: "Okay, I'll think about it now, if I get infected, I should die like this, I think, I'm still more suitable for peony flowers to die, it's not too early, I'll go upstairs first." ”
Tang Xiaohao walked to the door of the kitchen, stopped and turned his head and said, "I try not to let Miss Frost make any sound." ”
Sang Luo watched Tang Xiaohao leave and sighed, I hope this kid can hide himself.
——
Imperial City, inside the Imperial Study.
The 20-year-old emperor stood in front of the map of the whole territory of the Nine Plains, slowly opening his arms, as if embracing this world that did not completely belong to him. The chamberlains on both sides carefully put on the soft armor of the body protection on the emperor's body, and the emperor's eyes were always fixed on the location of Baili County on the map of the whole territory.
After the emperor put on the soft armor of the bodyguard, he stopped the inner servant from sending the nine-dragon clothes that symbolized the imperial power in front of him: "You go down first." ”
After the chamberlain left, the emperor looked at the map of the whole territory and said, "Is it arranged?" ”
A deep and powerful voice came from the back of the map of the whole territory: "Back to the emperor, the nine gates of the imperial city and the secret chess of the Xuanbu in various important places in the Divine Capital City have been prepared, and if there is any abnormality, it will be cleaned up according to the plan." ”
The Xuanbu mentioned by this person is a special organization directly under the emperor of the Dachang Dynasty, but there are very few people who know the existence of this organization. The main purpose of the Xuan Department was to help the emperor collect information from all over the country, so many people were also installed in various places, and these people were called dark chess.
The emperor closed his eyes and sat down: "How is the situation in Baili County?" ”
The man replied: "The wind is calm, there is no sign of the transfer of soldiers and horses, Bai Shihui has always stayed in the account, only his own soldiers around him, and he has not discussed with other generals in the army. ”
When the emperor heard this, he frowned: "Bai Shihui may have done it on purpose, acting for me to see." ”
The man said: "Bai Shihui will never know who is the secret chess of the Xuan Department in the army. ”
The emperor said: "Even if he doesn't know, he knows that I will send people to keep an eye on him, if he can't even think of this, how can he command the army?" ”
The man said, "Yes." ”
The Emperor pondered for a moment and said, "Just follow my previous plan, you can step aside." ”
The man said, "The minister is leaving." ”
As soon as the commander of the Xuan Department retired, the voice of the chamberlain came from outside the door: "Your Majesty, the military department Shangshu Nanrong Qufeng asks to see you." ”
The Emperor said, "Let him in." ”
When the commander of the Xuan Department heard that Nan Rong's style was coming, he immediately turned back and hid in the shadows, his hand already clenching the short knife on his waist.
As soon as Nanrong Qufeng, who was dressed in official uniform, arrived at the door of the imperial study, he knelt down directly and said, "Chen Nanrong Qufeng has come to see the saint." ”
The emperor said: "Aiqing is flat, and if he has something to say, he is not an outsider." ”
Nanrong Qufeng didn't go in, stood at the door and said, "The minister's late night visit is for the case that happened in the Shendu City. ”
The emperor was about to say something, but he remembered something, although he already knew about it, but it was through Xuanbu, because no one had reported it to him so far. Therefore, if the emperor shows that he knows about it at the moment, then Nanrong Qufeng will immediately understand that the emperor has his own sources.
Nan Rong's words sounded fine, but he was also a test.
In order to guard against powerful ministers like Nanrong Qufeng, this emperor, who has only been on the throne for a few years, has always played a puppet who has no opinions, panics, carelessness at any time, and even a little stupid.
The youngest emperor of the Dachang Dynasty didn't know that there was still a person in the Divine Capital City who was doing the same thing as him.
The emperor got up, walked to the door, looked at Nan Rong Qufeng and said, "I let you in, what are you still kneeling there for?" ”
Nanrong Qufeng, who looked kind and kind-eyed, and had an amiable posture, had to get up: "Yes." ”
After Nanrong Qufeng walked into the imperial study, the emperor asked happily, "Is there another Jiajia?" Will you be able to catch it alive this time? ”
Nan Rong's song style is difficult: "Back to the emperor, he is already dead, and he was killed by the great strategist himself?" ”
The emperor was stunned for a moment, his heart chuckled, and after his right hand clenched his fist, he immediately let go, but said, "Why did Sang Luo kill that Jia?" I had told him that I wanted to see with my own eyes what the armor looked like, what did he mean by that? Resistance? Believe it or not, I turned around and cut him down, and with my own hands. ”
Nanrong Qufeng secretly glanced at the emperor: "Your Majesty, what the minister is puzzled about is why the great strategist is not in the army, but in the Divine Capital City. ”
The emperor deliberately suddenly realized: "Yes, why? He didn't have a wife either, so he didn't need to rush back to see his wife, right? ”
Nanrong Qufeng coughed, signaling the emperor to pay attention to what he said.
The emperor didn't think so: "What are you coughing up, it's just the two of us here, I usually hold a dragon face in the palace, posing, I'm already very tired, and I still have to pretend in the imperial study?" I might as well not be the emperor. ”
After the emperor finished speaking, he turned around and left, but out of the corner of his eye, he looked at Nanrong Qufeng, wanting to see how he reacted.
Nanrong Qufeng immediately knelt down and said, "Your Majesty, you can't ...... this word."
"Can't what?" The emperor interrupted Nanrong's tune, "Okay, you can tell me, why is the great strategist not in the army, but in the Divine Capital City?" ”
Nan Rong Qufeng was still kneeling there: "The minister doesn't know, so the minister thinks he should send someone to meet the great strategist?" ”
The emperor sat back in his chair and stuffed snacks into his mouth until his cheeks bulged, and then he said vaguely: "Aiqing is also coming along?" This is the dim sum of the four seasons, filled with bean paste. ”
Nan Rong Qu said: "Thank you to the emperor, the minister doesn't dare." ”
The emperor said helplessly: "Eat a snack, what dare you dare?" Are you tired of being so pretentious all day long? Do you go home like this? Don't your family think you're sick? ”
The emperor asked questions like a cannonball, so that Nanrong Qufeng didn't know how to answer, but he was relieved in his heart, at least this emperor was completely under his control.
However, Nanrong has always felt that the emperor is very similar to his grandson, who is not related by blood.
Nan Rong Qu said: "Who does the emperor think is appropriate?" ”
The emperor pretended to be impatient: "You decide, after going back and asking what is going on, tell me, I have to see the twist, you can go back." ”
Nan Rongqu said: "Yes." ”
Nanrong Qufeng was still kneeling there, because the emperor hadn't let him get up yet. Although he really doesn't take this young emperor in his eyes, he has to pretend to be a good person.
After the emperor finished speaking, he picked up a book and began to read, deliberately pretending to forget the Nanrong style, but in fact he secretly watched, thinking: The old immortal is quite capable of pretending, you just keep kneeling, I see how long you can kneel this old bone, if you don't call me, I won't see it.
Nanrong Qufeng knelt for a long time, and naturally felt uncomfortable, and he couldn't help but raise his head to speak, and found that what the emperor was looking at was not a book, let alone a book of diligent government and persuasion, but a thing called "Shendu Women's Illustrated Guide".
When Nanrong Qufeng saw the woman with the cover top not covering her body, she almost didn't fall to the ground, but she still calmed down and deliberately raised her voice and said, "Your Majesty, Weichen retires." ”
The emperor put down the book abruptly and quickly hid it behind his back: "You haven't left yet?" ”
Nan Rong Qufeng bowed his head and said, "The emperor hasn't let the ministers get up yet." ”
The emperor said: "Get up, get flat, it's not early, hurry home, your wife has to worry, let's go, I have to continue studying." ”
After Nan Rong Qufeng got up and walked backwards from the imperial study, he straightened up, and then looked at the attendant next to him with his head held high. Several of the chamberlains immediately lowered their heads, eager to put their foreheads directly on their toes.
Nanrong Qufeng glanced back at the imperial study, and sneered with a sneer on his face: Ji Chengying, you will sit on this dragon chair for my Nanrong family, as long as you are consistent, then I will also be unswerving.
When Nanrong Qufeng walked away, Ji Chengying slowly walked to the door of the imperial study, looking at the faltering but powerful old man.
Nanrong Qufeng, you will be the watchdog for me, as long as you don't want to fill it, I won't leave no room for it.
