Chapter Eighty-Seven: Traces of the Family.....
Nanyang City:
The seven continents along the river have all been attacked now, but if you want to say which state capital has suffered the most fierce attack, it is Nanyang City!
Since Nanyang was attacked by living corpses, the counterattack was the most crisp and neat, in the face of demons and evils, many defensive techniques arranged by the Shen family outside the city were activated, and the first wave of tens of thousands of living corpses was wiped out almost without a single soldier.
For a time, Hong Rui, the chief soldier stationed here, breathed a sigh of relief.
There is no other reason, just because there are no soldiers in his hands, and his confidence is insufficient!
The area of Nanyang is the largest in Qizhou, but the imperial garrison is the least, which reflects the trust in the Shen family, and secondly, because it is not needed.
Whether it is an external force or a bandit, no one dares to make a mistake in the Shen family's territory.
But because of this, today's Nanyang has fallen into the most embarrassing situation......
At the head of the city, looking at the group of living corpses that receded like a sea of tides due to the rising sun, Hong Rui almost sat directly on the ground with weak feet, different from the relief when the first wave of attacks at night, he had a strong sense of fear at this time.
Not to mention him, even the Shen family in the city was apprehensive at this time.
The number is exaggerated.
Just looking at the corpses under the city, it can be seen that there are countless living corpses killed by the Shen family's technique at this time, piled up like a mountain of flesh one by one, which looks quite spectacular, especially in the last wave of the night, Hong Rui visually measured the scale of at least 200,000!
The black pressure was overwhelming, like the tide rolling over, and I was so scared that I almost urinated!
God is pitiful, although he is a member of the Hong family, but because of the doting of his elders, he has never been to the battlefield, and the errand he came to Jiangnan was also begged for by his family, that is, he planned to let himself mix in the local area for a few years with local qualifications, so that he could have an excuse to get an idle job in the capital with a lot of rank.
is different from Wei Chipeng, who was suppressed by Jiangnan because he was too good, he is really incompetent......
After all..... The capable court will not let the Shen family come to the territory.
"Lord General Soldier has worked hard......" A hoarse voice came, it was an elegant middle-aged man in a wheelchair, his face was pale, it was the third child of the Shen family: Shen Yimiao.
"Now that the corpses have receded, do you want to go back to the city to rest?"
"Don't get in the way, don't get in the way......." Hong Rui smiled reluctantly, and his laughter was quite empty.
What's so hard for him?
I watched the play all night last night, and although this play was a little thrilling, it was nothing to do.....
"Mr. Shen San......" Hong Rui swallowed his saliva and said, "This ....... Now in this situation, do you need to ask the imperial court for reinforcements and troops? ”
In the land of Nanyang, the imperial court is symbolically garrisoned with 500 soldiers, because there is basically no risk, enlisting in the army is equivalent to getting a military salary for a mixed day, and almost all those who can enter the Nanyang military camp are related households, how can there be the slightest combat power?
Yesterday on the city wall was worse than himself, as early as the third wave was frightened to run down the city wall, this must be according to military law, all of them must be executed!
The Shen family's magic array also looks really powerful, but if it has always been like yesterday, I'm afraid it will also hang!
"Asking for help?" Shen San shook his head with a wry smile: "It's good to ask for help......
Yesterday, the Qinglong inheritance appeared, and the six masters of the Shen family came out together, but they turned around in the white fog for a long time, and some of the mysteries in it were simply incredible, and the six masters couldn't get out of the fog with all their might, and finally had to slip back, and the rhetoric before departure became a joke.
But now it seems that this white fog should not be a means of the imperial court, and it remains to be seen whether it is from Yundu.
"In that case, I'll go back and rest first." Shen San said with a smile: "If there is a situation, please notify the general in time." ”
"Okay, Mr. Shen San has worked hard, I'll send you ......"
"Don't bother, the general should also find time to rest, after all, he has been standing all night."
"Hehe, where is ......" Hong Rui suddenly waved his hand.
Shen Yimiao was not polite, and several metal claws appeared on the wheelchair, like an eight-legged spider, and jumped off the city wall in front of everyone very strangely.
Hong Rui could see that Shen Yimiao's way was to go back to rest, and it was clearly to go to the other side of the river to meet up with the few masters who had just chased him out.
He didn't care about this, he also knew that although he was named a general soldier, he was not qualified to participate in the defense of the city in Nanyang, and now he should still think about it, in case the Shen family can't bear it, what excuse should he find to escape without being held accountable by the above.
And now he doesn't seem to be able to escape alone, because he still has an errand to do.....
About half a month ago, I came back from the north to do something, and was greeted by my brother Hong Lie, escorting a civil official's home to Jiangnan.
It's good now, if those terrifying living corpses rushed into the city yesterday, would it be possible for him to leave those country women and children and run away?
Big brother will break his own leg, right? After all, the letter said very cautiously that he must escort him well, saying that the surname Chen is a close friend of the Hong family, and the kind who has a life-saving grace for the eldest brother, so he must arrange the family members properly......
But if you carry those burdens...... With the ability of his three-legged cat, I am afraid that I will have to fold in Nanyang......
Ay......
Thinking of this, Hong Rui's face was full of bitterness, and in the end he could only pray that the Shen family would be more powerful, after all, it was a thousand-year-old warlock family.
-----------------------------------------
"The third brother is here?"
At this time, several leaders of the Shen family were by the river, carefully observing the retreating living corpses.
"Do you see anything famous?" Shen Laosandao.
"These living corpses are controlled by worms."
It was the patriarch of the Shen family who spoke: Shen Yixin.
"Worms?"
"Third brother, look ......" Shen Yixin took out a transparent box, and in the box were a few white nematodes as thin as hair.
"These are..... Inside a living corpse? ”
"Right to ......" next to Lao Qiyin said compassionately: "These living corpses will only lose their ability to move if their bodies are completely exploded, or their brains are damaged, we felt strange at the time, and after careful observation, we found that after the living corpses lose their actions, this kind of insect will be drilled out of the heavenly spirit!" ”
"Worm..... Control the corpse ......" Shen Laosan frowned, and suddenly remembered something, and his eyelids jumped!
"Third brother remembered something, right?" Shen Yixin said quietly.
"Ah, my father was ......" Shen Laosan suddenly remembered that there was a time when the ancestor of the Shen family, that is, his father, seemed to be crazy in the experiment, using Gu worms to control the project of living people, the experiment was too crazy at that time, and he remembered that there were tens of thousands of people who died in the experiment!
If it weren't for the mother's persuasion before she died, the father might have continued.
It was against this background that Lao Jiu was born, claiming to be a poison warlock, but in fact he was an insect warlock!
"These things..... Could it be the father? The old twelve were surprised.
"Shut up!" The third child rarely scolded harshly.
I am afraid that there are hundreds of thousands of living corpses on the shore, looking at the wave after wave of posture, I don't know how many are hidden in the water, the preliminary estimate is millions or more, if the ancestor does this kind of thing, even if it is strong, I am afraid that it will be treated as a demon in the world, and the Shen family will also be pushed to the peak at that time!
"Third brother, things are more serious than imagined,......" Shen Yixin took the transparent box and said: "These insects, when they encounter flesh and blood, can magically split tens of millions, completely change the structure of living people, and forcibly alienate ordinary people into demons. ”
"Isn't this just like the worm?" The old twelve pouted.
"It's different......" Shen Yixin shook his head: "It's much more troublesome than the insect demon, the insect demon is simply controlling the living person and using it as a container, but this thing is changing the living person and directly turning into a demon, and because of this terrifying splitting ability, I am afraid that these living corpses are extremely contagious, and if they are caught or bitten slightly, they will have the risk of becoming this kind of monster." ”
Shen Laosan's pupils shrank when he heard this, and he looked at the river suddenly.
"It seems that the third brother has also thought of it." Shen Yixin looked at the river and said: "The river in Nanyang Mansion connects more than 70 counties, all of which are densely populated, and there are more than one million living people......
Shen Laosan: "........"
After being silent for a while, the third child finally spoke: "Let's act separately, try to protect as much as possible, second, this matter will not have anything to do with my father, and any rumors about this must be erased!" ”
"This is a natural ......" Shen Yixin's eyes were also ruthless, this time it was Nanyang's people who died, and they couldn't let this matter have anything to do with their father!
--------------------------------------------
"My lord, do you need my help?"
In the Liuzhou Mansion, looking at Chen Qing, who was about to lead the team in person, Chen Ying took the initiative to step forward and ask.
"You can get a good grasp of what I gave you." Chen Qing glanced at Chen Ying: "Now you can't help much." ”
Chen Ying: "......."
This guy, has he always been so annoying when he speaks?
"Then why did the adults take me out of the city again?"
"I'm afraid you'll die in the city!" Chen Qing glanced at the other party: "Have you forgotten that Shen Laojiu is still hiding in the city, and I am not here, do you think he will come to you?" ”
Chen Ying suddenly shuddered when she heard this, she still remembers clearly that when she was on the boat, the old nine of the Shen family was hiding in the shadows, looking at her eyes!
"I don't know ......why," Chen Qing frowned and said, "Then the ninth elder of the Shen family seems to be very obsessed with you." ”
"To me?" Chen Ying was stunned for a moment, but then she also felt strange, why did Shen Laojiu just want himself in the face of so many people in the merchant ship at that time?
As he was talking, a cute voice suddenly came.
"Daddy......"
Chen Ying, who just wanted to ask, was stunned for a moment, turned her head to look, and suddenly felt a cute child in her heart, such a beautiful child.
Forehead...... No, he just called Daddy?
This surname Chen has all the children?
Chen Ying felt inexplicably uncomfortable in her heart......
"Awake?" Chen Qing suddenly smiled gently.
He also counted that the ghost baby should wake up in the past two days, so ..... It would be more certain to stay in Liuzhou with him on this trip.
"My lord......" Wei Gongcheng walked from outside the door: "Everyone has brought it, are they all called in now?" ”
Wei Gongcheng didn't understand, why he had to choose which people to go out with and which people to stay in person, could he use it?
"Well......" Chen Qing quietly put the mirror in his arms on the desk in front of him, and said lightly: "Call in." ”
This small action is nothing to others, but Chen Ying on the side was slightly stunned.
The mirror...... Why does it look familiar?
