Chapter 31: The Zombies Are Coming
At night, in the dark bamboo forest, a little orange fire gathers, like a fire snake slowly moving forward in the forest, this is a team of hundreds of people.
At the front of the procession, dozens of sergeants sneaked on horseback, each of them tall and burly, dressed in black armor, holding the reins in one hand and torches in the other, and their eyes scanned the surroundings from time to time.
In the middle of the procession was a wide, well-made carriage with four wheels and four black horses in front. Behind the carriage were dozens of young girls dressed in white gauze robes, some carrying flower baskets, some carrying swords, and so on.
"Nannu, what's the news? How far is it from Wuyang Town? The sound came from the frame, with a hint of laziness, as clear as a yellow bird, pleasant to the ear.
As soon as the voice came out, the whole team stopped instantly. A slender woman in a tight black gown drove her horse to the chariot, then rolled over and dismounted, and fell to one knee on the ground.
"Princess, twenty miles ahead is Wuyang Town, and there is still about an hour away. Also, a large number of people suddenly appeared on the official road ahead, what to do, please show the princess! ”
After only a moment's thought, the man in the car said, "Go and ask them where they came from and why they are here." ”
Hearing the princess's words, Niannu replied respectfully: "Obey!" ”
With that, she turned on her horse, drove away from the group, and ran forward.
……
"Phew! If any of you is in charge, come out! Niannu stopped directly in front of the migrants, stopped the horses, and asked loudly.
Hearing Niannu's voice, there was a commotion in the ranks, and soon a short and fat man with a small burden on his back walked out of the group.
He only looked at the other party for a moment, and then he saw the sword in the other's hand, the horse beside him, and the indescribable heroism.
This is definitely no ordinary person!
Thinking of this in his heart, he immediately replied in a low voice: "I am in charge of the matter, may I ask what this woman is doing?" ”
Hearing the fat man's words, the woman didn't answer, and took out a waist card from her waist before.
Looking at the silver luster flashing on the token, Xu Hong suddenly respected a little, knelt on the ground and said, "It turned out that the adult arrived." Xu Hong, the pavilion chief of Wuyang Town, has seen adults! ”
It turned out that this man was the pavilion chief Xu Hong, who had spoken to the Venerable Master Tianxuan before, and after receiving the warning from the Venerable Master Tianxuan, he hurriedly organized the residents of the town, packed up the soft and left overnight, and it was already two hours before the team set off.
Nian Nu put away the waist card, and then asked: "You are the pavilion chief of Wuyang Town, why did you lead the townspeople out of the town without permission, do you know that you have violated the laws of the mirror country by leading the people out of the jurisdiction for no reason?" ”
Hearing Niannu's words, Xu Hong replied: "Tell your lordship, the Venerable Master of Qintianjian Tianxuan said that there is a major incident in this town, and in order to prevent an accident from happening, he informed me to evacuate the townspeople, and ordered me not to return to the town without permission. ”
Venerable Tianxuan?
Hearing this news, Nian Nu's face changed, and he immediately took the handwritten letter handed over by Xu Hong, and then said to Xu Hong: "You appease the townspeople first, wait here for a while, wait until I see the princess, report the situation, and then decide to stay." ”
Hearing that the princess was in front, Xu Hong's face suddenly became horrified, how dare he have the idea of disobedience, his body trembled, his demeanor became more and more respectful, and he said tremblingly: "Yes, I am humbled and ordered!" ”
Nian Nu didn't care how frightened Xu Hong was, and after getting on the horse, he rode towards the team.
……
In Wuyang Town, the bustling streets are densely lit, and the lights are like a fire dragon, extending from the street to the end of the street.
Wuyang Town, which was originally lively and full of people at night, could not see a person at this time, the cool breeze blew through the street, and the whining sound sounded, rolling the thatch and paper scattered on the ground, like a dilapidated empty city.
In the center of the town, Jiazi and Wang Ye and seven others were in full swing to arrange the means to deal with zombies tonight.
Except for the sound of walking and the collision of objects, there is almost no sound to be heard, and it is very quiet.
Wang Ye took Li Hong, Qin Yun, and Zhou Xingyu to Jiazi and said, "Brother Jia, we've got it here." ”
"Senior brother, we've got it done here!" It was Xu Kun who followed the actions of everyone who spoke.
Jiazi nodded, and then said, "You guys take a rest now, and you'll have to be busy when the zombies come." ”
After saying that, he turned and walked towards Venerable Tianxuan not far away.
Walking up to Venerable Tianxuan, Jiazi said, "Master, it's all done, do you have any other orders?" ”
Venerable Tianxuan put away the spirit plate in his hand and asked, "How is the Heaven and Earth Net arranged?" Is rooster blood and black dog blood enough? ”
Jiazi nodded, and replied: "The net has been arranged, and when Pavilion Chief Xu left before, he helped me find all the black dogs and roosters in the town, and the ropes used in the nets were all soaked with rooster blood and black dog blood." ”
"Where's the glutinous rice?"
Jiazi asked rhetorically: "I bought all the glutinous rice in the rice shop, but master, is the glutinous rice still useful to that zombie?" ”
Glutinous rice is useful for ordinary zombies, which can suck out the corpse qi on the opponent's body, and the lack of corpse qi can not only greatly reduce the opponent's attack power, but also weaken the opponent's defense.
But this is just for ordinary zombies, he has seen that zombie, it is definitely not an ordinary zombie, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it is a corpse demon.
Daoist Tianxuan shook his head and sighed, "If it was before, I can tell you for sure that it was useful." But now, the master can't be sure, and preparing these is just doing his best to obey the destiny of heaven. ”
Coming out of the Zhang family's mansion, the village they passed through all the way, almost all the villagers in it were slaughtered by zombies, and there was not a single one alive.
After absorbing so much human blood, the injuries on the zombie's body must have already healed, and maybe even one step closer to strength, which is the last thing he wants to see, and the worst situation.
This zombie has gone crazy, slaughtering ordinary people on such a large scale, even if they don't deal with it at this time, the royal family of the Mirror Kingdom will not ignore it, and it will have no way to survive at that time.
But if they don't care, he doesn't know how many innocent people will die tragically at its hands during this period, and he doesn't want to see the tragedy of the village slaughter happen again, so he is so anxious to catch the zombies.
"Buzz!"
"Ringing ringing!"
Suddenly, the spirit disc on his body kept vibrating, and the wind chimes next to him also kept ringing.
The Venerable Master Tianxuan quickly took the Haoyang Sword in his hand, drew the sword out of its sheath, and warned him: "Everyone be careful, that evil beast is coming!" ”
Everyone's eyes looked around solemnly.
The situation instantly became tense.
Seeing that the war was about to break out, Wang Ye said to Zhou Xingyu on the side: "Ah Xing, you go to the side to avoid it first!" ”
"You have to be careful." After speaking, Zhou Xingyu quickly walked towards a room on the side.
Zhou Xingyu hid in the house, a pair of eyes through the window, always paying attention to the movement outside, although he could not fight side by side with others, but as a doctor, finding the wounded and treating them in time could reduce unnecessary casualties for the team.
"Roar!"
With a roar, a rotting figure quickly slashed towards Venerable Tianxuan and the others at a speed that was indistinguishable to the naked eye.
Call!
A puff of smoke came out of its mouth like a sharp sword. And with that came a foul smell.
Master Tianxuan hurriedly reminded, "Be careful, this is corpse qi!" ”
Hearing the reminder of the Venerable Master Tianxuan, everyone hurriedly dispersed to the side.
Everyone dodged in time, and the corpse qi blew directly on the pillars behind them.
The originally intact pillars, as if burned by fire, emitted a large amount of white smoke, and everyone looked at it intently, and they all took a deep breath of cold air.
In just a few breaths, the pillar has been corroded by the corpse qi to create a huge gap, and the poison of the corpse qi can be imagined.
If it hadn't been for the reminder of the Venerable Master Tianxuan, he would have been sprayed by corpse gas, and it is estimated that he would have died on the spot.
Seeing that the zombie missed a blow, it quickly pounced on Li Hong and Qin Yun on the side, the two were the weakest, obviously it wanted to kill the two and reduce the pressure.
"Senior Brother Wang, save me!" Seeing the corpse rushing towards him, Li Hong's expression changed greatly, and he shouted in his mouth, but unfortunately the speed of the zombie was too fast, and before Wang Ye could rescue, the zombie pierced Li Hong's body with one claw, and immediately blood gushed out from Li Hong's body, all over the ground.
As if stimulated by blood, the zombie instantly let out a roar, and its power seemed to be even stronger.
"Li Hong!"
"Brother Li!"
Seeing this, Wang Ye and Qin Yun's eyes turned red instantly, Qin Yun's sword slashed at the zombie's arm, and Wang Ye stabbed the zombie in the back with a sword.
Although the swords of the two of them hit the zombies, it was like hitting an iron plate, just a little deeper, and they couldn't go any further, unlike the corpses they had encountered before, this one's defense power had obviously reached the level of copper skin and iron bones.
"Roar!" The zombie's form dodged away in an instant.
Although the swords of the two did not cause him much damage, the power of the rune seal on the sword made it very painful.
"Brute, give me death!" Seeing that he had lost a teammate at the beginning of the game, Tianxuan Daoist was instantly furious, and raised his sword to kill the zombies.
"Division...... Senior brother, I'll ...... first Let's go first...... Gone, help me take care of ...... Babysitting...... Younger sister. After Li Hong took his last breath to explain the aftermath, his head quickly hung to the side.
Looking at Li Hong, who was no longer human, Wang Ye only felt depressed in his heart, he directly raised his sword and killed the zombies who were under siege.
Qin Yun on the side was in grief and couldn't extricate himself, the two once participated in the assessment together, became disciples of the Xuanmen, and teamed up to complete the tasks in the door again and again, and the past scenes surfaced in his heart.
"Xiao Yi, go and activate the Tianluo Net, here, let's entangle the zombies first!" Master Tianxuan slashed at the zombie with a sword, and the Haoyang Sword was worthy of being a divine weapon that specialized in restraining ghosts and ghosts, and instantly cut off one of the opponent's hands, taking advantage of this free time, he said to Xu Kun urgently.
The zombie's arm had just been chopped off, but it flew back to its wrist in an instant, and it only took a few breaths to return to normal.
Obviously, this injury was nothing to it.
The Venerable Master saw this, too, and knew that the best way was to trap the zombie and slowly drain the power he had used to recover.
There is a limit to everything, and the recovery ability of zombies, while perverted, is definitely not endless.
"Master, be careful!" After Xu Kun finished speaking, he ran towards the pillar on the side.
Taking advantage of the time when the zombie was recovering from his arm injury, the Venerable Tianxuan painfully took out a golden talisman from his sleeve, pinched it with two fingers, and said in his mouth: "Yin and Yang, the sun rises in the east, collect this talisman and sweep away the ominous!" ”
After reading it, the golden talisman in his hand burned, turning into a raging fire, flying towards the zombie, and burning violently on his body.
Burning in flames, the zombie instantly let out a wail, constantly rolling on the ground, trying to extinguish the flames on his body, but the flames seemed to be alive, the more they fought, the more fierce they burned.
A thick cloud of smoke appeared in the light of the fire, growing larger and more violent.
