Chapter 250: Like You?
The wild grass grows wantonly, and with the sky dyed scarlet by the setting sun at dusk, it is vibrant and desolate at the same time.
In the barren grass, several emaciated figures contrasted with the deep white bones, and the bones and ruins that were not completely rotten lay quietly in the crust of the pit, as if to tell the passers-by about what had happened here.
Time has passed, and the old place is revisited, but goodbye is like this, which will inevitably make people a little sentimental.
Wu Gong sighed, rode his horse and led everyone around the collapsed stone bridge, and entered the town of Ruyiwan, where there had been a killing, it should have happened a long time ago, but there was always a smell of blood in the air that could not be removed.
Most of the people in the town don't know where to go for a long time, and they are no longer as lively as they used to be, and their eyes are full of desolation.
Wu Gong led the men into the town, and found a living man still alive, skinny and bone-like, with hair like dead grass in the middle of the night, dressed only in a shabby and ill-fitting garment, still stained with mud and dust, buried in the rotting grass, and I don't know whether he was asleep or dead.
Wu Gong was not polite, and as soon as he came to him, he took out a bamboo stick from the storage space and poked it at the person.
"Hey! Wake up! ”
The townsfolk opened their eyes, but the expression on their faces did not look like they had just woken up, but rather numbness, a kind of mechanical sluggishness.
He raised his head to look at Wu Gong in a daze, and he didn't look at anyone else, just looked straight into his eyes, in a daze.
"Huh?" Wu Gong felt strange in his heart, his brows couldn't help frowning, after thinking about it, he took out two pieces of dry food and said, "Answer my words well, there are still things to eat." ”
With that, he threw the rations into the haystack at the man's feet.
Wow, pop~
The sound of hard corn cakes falling on the grass could be heard clearly, but the strange thing was that the townspeople, who should have been hungry for a long time and had the craziest thirst for food, only glanced down, but did not bend down to pick it up hungrily.
It wasn't long before the townsfolk raised their heads again and met Wu Gong's gaze again.
"This is a cake, do you want to eat it or not?"
"Speak!"
"You want to be beaten, don't you?"
"Let you talk!"
The townspeople didn't say anything for a long time, and Wang Zhongzhu and the others behind Wu Gong were a little impatient, so they asked angrily.
But the other party was still unmoved, and as before, he never moved his eyes away from Wu Gong.
The strange thing is that Wu Gong didn't even speak, and stared at the other party's eyes, and no one was willing to back down.
It may be that Wu Gong's behavior just now made the townspeople feel unhappy, the atmosphere froze for a while, and they realized that something was wrong, Wang Zhongzhu and the others also closed their mouths, and were as silent as Wu Gong, but their hands had already touched the weapon on their waists, and their eyes were full of vigilance, and they might draw their knives and kill at any time.
I don't know how long it has been, but the eyes of the townsman in front of him finally moved twice, and slowly moved down, looking at the horse riding under him from Wu Gong's face.
I don't know what affected it, but the other horses began to become restless, constantly trampling the ground with their front hooves.
The brown eyes reflected the appearance of the horses, and the dull and numb eyes of the townsman changed a little, and became excited, he suddenly raised his hands and roared at Wu Gong in a hoarse voice like the rotation of a millstone: "Give it to me!" Give me! ”
"What?"
Wu Gong was puzzled, so he asked, but the other party did not answer, and without waiting for him to make any moves, he directly pounced, grabbed the mane on the horse's neck, and then hugged it tightly.
For the townspeople, this horse is what he desperately desires.
Wu Gong was a little confused, and before he could figure out what the situation of this townsman was, he saw the other party open his mouth and bite the horse's neck.
"Fuck off!" Without thinking much about it, Wu Gong, who was riding on horseback, kicked him out three or four meters away with a random kick, and faintly heard the sound of several ribs breaking together.
Bang!
The human body fell heavily to the ground and made a dull sound, this kick, Wu Gong didn't use much strength, but the townsman's chest was still kicked and sunken, if he was an ordinary person, even if he didn't die, he would be directly incapacitated, but the townsman didn't seem to feel the pain, and soon staggered and stood up like a zombie.
He was like a nobody, his movements were brisk and without the slightest delay, and he rushed over again without hesitation, wanting to bite the horse's neck, but before he could get closer, Wu Gong kicked him away again.
This time he kicked his shoulder, and when the townsman stood up again, his shoulder was directly out of position, but he still didn't feel anything unusual, and he stood up and rushed towards the horse under Wu Gong as before.
Bang!
Bang!
Click!
Bang!
After getting close to being kicked and flying again, and then getting close and being kicked again four or five times in a row, when the townsfolk stood up for the sixth time, he was no longer human, with multiple fractures on his body, and the entire right part of his face completely collapsed.
Wu Gong looked at him quietly, although there was nothing on the surface, but there was already an amazing killing intent in his eyes, he was not a good person in the first place, he was already impatient with this one after another, if this guy still came, he wouldn't mind killing him directly.
But it's a pity that the other party doesn't know what he thinks in his heart, and even if he does, he won't care at all, but he also understands that he can't get close to the horse all the time, so he no longer chooses to rush blindly.
He just stood there motionless, silent, for about a minute or so before he made a sound, but this time it was more heart-rending than the previous ones.
"Give! I!!!!!! Ahh ”
His voice was loud, alarming the other townsfolk who were also struggling to breathe, and as his shouts passed, a large amount of pitch-black and cold evil aura appeared around his body.
Wu Gong was stunned for a moment, and his face changed slightly in the next second.
"Waiter!"
He was still wondering just now, how could this person be so tenacious like Xiaoqiang, and if it was a grievance servant, then everything made sense.
The townsfolk have borrowed the power of the evil cult many times, and when it is no longer possible for them to afford to support the evil spirit, they themselves become a part of the evil spirit, and naturally they will not feel the pain.
And Wu Gong obviously had dealt with the resentful many times, and knew what to do with the resentful, so he didn't dare to delay, pulled the reins and rode directly over, and grabbed the other party's scattered hair and picked it up before the evil consciousness came.
"Die!"
With the force of both hands, the resentful in front of him had no ability to resist, and he was directly twisted by Wu Gong's neck, and he lost his breath on the spot, and the evil qi that permeated his body slowly dissipated and did not regenerate.
Tsurumi Chuyun, who was not far away, also pulled out the long sword with a "choked" sound, and a large piece of spiritual power was swayed out and turned into several fierce sword qi, instantly taking the lives of the three grievances.
"Let's go!"
Wu Gong turned his horse's head and shouted, these grievances said that it was difficult to deal with and easy to deal with, after all, they were all ordinary people, and the martial arts with the lowest cultivation among their group had the strength of the positive level of the plague stage, and dealing with ordinary people was as simple as killing chickens and slaughtering sheep.
But if he faced the resentful who had completely betrayed him, it was uncertain who would kill the deer, Wu Gong didn't dare to gamble, and there was no need to gamble.
Seeing that they began to run away, the countless servants and grudges chased after them with a cold and black evil spirit, but where could the two-legged one outrun the four-legged one?
These grievances couldn't catch up at all, so they could only watch Wu Gonghe see Chu Yun and the others running farther and farther on horseback, and finally had to give up after chasing for a mile, roaring in the direction where they disappeared.
Wu Gong glanced back, and there was no longer a shadow of Ruyi Bay here, and he shook his head, which could be regarded as a sigh of relief.
Ruyi Bay Town has become like this now, and he also feels a pity in his heart, after all, Ruyi Bay Town He lived there for a while in the early years, and he also has some feelings for it, but now, it's a pity that it's useless, and when he enters Dajingfeng State, this Jizhou ...... If nothing else, I will never come back for the rest of my life.
"Okay, let's take the main road and go directly to Jizhou City."
"Good boss."
"Let's go, go to Duping in the evening, we will rest there."
“……”
After coming out of Huaiying City, Tsurumi Chuyun had followed Wu Gong and them for nearly five days, and now they have passed Ruyi Bay, and there is not much distance to Jizhou City, and unconsciously time flows through his fingers like quicksand, and three days have passed in the blink of an eye.
On a slope, Shen Yi looked into the distance in a daze, and it didn't take long for Tsurumi Hatsumo to come out with a bowl and sit next to him.
"What are you looking at?"
"Didn't see anything." Shen Yi retracted his gaze, just now he saw Jizhou City in the distance.
Even if the peaks block it, it can't stop the grandeur of that city.
In his previous life, he had been to Xi'an City and had seen the city wall of Xi'an City that was more than ten meters high, and he was shocked at the time, but now, Jizhou City in the distance made it difficult for him to describe it in idioms for a while.
Because of the distance, it is not easy to estimate the height of the city wall of Jizhou City, but it will not be less than ten zhang, the high wall stretches, so that Jizhou City looks like a steel fortress in general, the scale is grand, the battlements are dense, even if it is several miles away, you can see countless black spots representing the defenders like a net of heaven and earth tightly guarded.
Above the nine-fold city gate, the pavilions and attics are scattered, and the list of towers is towering, which is almost on par with the high-rise buildings of the previous life.
How to say it, in terms of the height of the city wall, Jizhou City may be a little lower than Wuchuan City, but as the oldest city in the Great Liang Dynasty, it has a little more thick atmosphere than Wuchuan City.
The faintly visible mottling of the city walls is a vestige of history.
Taking a breath, Shen Yi looked at Tsurumi Chuyun and saw her carrying a bowl, and in the bowl were some white-flour steamed buns, pickles, and roast meat or something.
"Isn't it that you don't eat when you cultivate to the pure level? Why do you still eat? ”
"I can't eat it?"
"Okay, I didn't say you can't eat it, anyway, it's none of my business to eat fat."
"Am I fat?" She held chopsticks in one hand and a bowl in the other, opened her arms and asked.
Shen Yi swept her chest, and muttered, "It seems to be quite thin......"
Tsurumi Hatsuun didn't understand what he really meant, and just smiled and hummed a few words.
After taking a bite of the steamed bun and another bite of pickles, she patted Shen Yi's hind leg and said, "Look at you, how fat you are, eat less Yunbeast Pill, otherwise you won't be able to fly in the future." ”
"Old witch, do you know what you look like when you roll your eyes?"
"What?"
Shen Yi rolled his eyes at her.
"Aang? Do you look like you look like when you roll your eyes? ”
Tsuru saw that Hatsuyun was speechless, and then raised his eyes and gave him a salute in return.
Not to mention, Shen Yi's white eyes are really a little similar to her rolling eyes, but the overall look is a bit weird, after all, she is not human.
As for her saying that she was fat, Shen Yi didn't bother to explain anything, this was because the hind limbs were too thick, and the distance between the forelimbs and the hind limbs became shorter after the body was reduced, causing him to make the back half of his body look fat and round when he was lying down to rest, and the smaller the body, the more so.
If the body size is restored to the maximum, the thick hind limbs will make his entire body look smooth, and in the same way, in Shen Yi's opinion, this is also the most perfect image of the Western Dragon.
Don't worry about the details or anything.
"You've eaten, where's my stuff?"
"Whoa." Tsurumi Hatsuyun held another bowl in his hand and placed it casually in front of Shen Yi.
There were a few bright-colored dark brown boutique beast pills in the bowl, but Shen Yi was a little dissatisfied on his face, so he asked, "Why is it so much?" ”
"You save some food, there isn't much left."
Among all the medicinal materials she bought in Huaiying City, the Yun Beast Pill could only be refined in eight furnaces, two of which were high-quality Yun Beast Pills, and in the past few days, the materials in her hands had been almost used up, and now the materials of the Yun Beast Pill were only enough to barely refine two furnaces.
Pei Yuan Dan used it faster, because Wu Gong and the others had been waiting for her to refine the pill on the way, so she would refine one or two furnaces every night, and now the materials of Pei Yuan Dan have been completely used up.
Shen Yi wanted to say something, but as soon as he opened his mouth, Wu Gong came with two horses, and as soon as he saw her, he shouted, "Miss Jiang!" ”
"What?" Shen Yi closed his mouth, and when he saw Chu Yun, he hurriedly turned his head to look over.
"You go over and help me and bring the rest over."
"Oh."
Nodding, she patted Shen Yi's back and stood up from the ground, and walked towards Duan Huai and them.
It didn't take long to see her also leading two horses past behind Shen Yi, and before reaching the position designated by Wu Gong, she asked Wu Gong while tying her horse: "Old Wu, when do you decide to act?" ”
"At night, there are too many officers and soldiers during the day, and it is easy to have an accident when you go in."
"At night?" Tsurumi Hatsuun frowned: "You guys...... Isn't it that you don't go into the city? ”
"Of course not in town."
"How are you going to meet your old friend without going into the city?"
"This ...... You can rest assured, since I dare to come to Jizhou City, I am naturally sure in my heart, and you can follow us with peace of mind when the time comes. ”
"This ......"
Tsurumi Hatsuyun didn't say anything, but the situation between Wu Gong and his old friend was a little different.
