Chapter 45: Sisters
In the evening.
Luo Qingfeng stepped on the mud and returned to the town.
But at this time, the town has fallen.
Houses were burning, screams were incessant, blood and corpses were everywhere, and terrible monsters and terrified people were running everywhere.
The demon slayer also arrived.
In the streets, in the alleys, there was fighting everywhere.
Luo Qingfeng took out his knife and quickly rushed back to the Song family.
Most of the house has burned down.
There were several bloody corpses lying in the doorway.
In the small courtyard, the maid Xiaohuan was covered in blood and lay there, lifeless.
Luo Qingfeng rushed to the backyard.
At this time, his cousin Song Yuanshan suddenly rushed out of the backyard with a bloody face, and hurriedly hissed when he saw him: "Qingfeng! Come on! Come on! It's full of monsters, and your cousin and aunt have all been killed! Wan'er is gone! ”
Luo Qingfeng clenched the knife in his hand, and suddenly saw his fangs showing out of his mouth, and suddenly opened his cracked mouth and pounced!
"Huh!"
The broken knife in Luo Qingfeng's hand slashed diagonally and slashed heavily at his neck.
Song Yuanshan fell to the ground, and a bloody mark appeared on his neck, full of gaps, and it did not hurt him.
He raised his hideous face and said with red eyes, "Silver! It's all mine! It's all mine! Don't you think! ”
He roared and jumped up from the ground and pounced on Luo Qingfeng again.
Luo Qingfeng trembled with both hands and held the handle of the knife, the star power surged, the knife appeared, and with a "poof", the broken knife that swallowed the knife suddenly penetrated his heart.
Song Yuanshan's body stiffened, his eyes widened, the scarlet color in his eyes quickly receded, and the black qi in his chest rattled.
He suddenly trembled again, then his body went limp, and he fell to the ground, looking at the knife-wielding young man in front of him with guilt, blood gushing from his mouth, and said in a trembling voice: "Qing...... Qingfeng, I'm sorry...... Your grandmother, left you ...... Money ......"
He didn't finish before he took his last breath.
Luo Qingfeng held the knife and stood there with a pale face, his body trembling slightly.
The house was already on fire, and the roar outside shook the sky.
At this moment, he stood in the small courtyard in a daze, his mind blank, not knowing where to go.
Are they all demons?
At this moment, a monster suddenly ran in through the door with a roar.
Then, with a flash of coldness, its head fell to the ground.
The nightingale, dressed in a black suit, holding a short knife, suddenly swept in from the door, glanced at the rusty broken knife in his hand, and then looked at the corpse on the ground, and said urgently: "What are you still standing in a daze?" Run! The town has fallen, there are demons everywhere, you take your cousin to Wangxing City, only there is safety! ”
Luo Qingfeng stood there, motionless.
"What's wrong with you?"
Seeing that his face was wrong, the nightingale glanced at the corpse on the ground again, and suddenly thought of something: "Could it be that your cousin is also ......"
"Whew-"
At this moment, another monster rushed in.
The short knife in the nightingale's hand was raised, and a flash of the knife lit up, instantly cutting off the monster's head.
Then she reached out and grabbed the young man in the small courtyard and rushed out quickly.
The town has fallen completely.
The streets are full of demonic people, like zombies, biting and killing people everywhere.
The nightingale sent Luo Qingfeng outside the town and urged urgently: "You follow the crowd to Wangxing City first, and I will stay and continue to fight." The city has already sent someone, and we're going to hold on for a while! ”
Luo Qingfeng nodded in despair and left with the crowd.
He is now seriously injured, and if he doesn't leave, he will probably be torn to pieces by those crazy demons later.
He didn't want to die here.
He clenched the broken knife in his hand, turned around, and glanced at the hideous-faced demons in the town again, and couldn't help but think of the figure in the red dress and the figure in the pink dress in his mind again.
"Broken Knife Nameless ......"
He looked at the rusty broken knife in his hand and muttered in a low voice, "Then call you...... Kill the demons. Demon Destroying Blade, may you destroy all the demons in the world, so that there will be no more ...... in the world Regret ......"
The people in the town, dragging their families and mouths, panicked, and fled in embarrassment to the stargazing city in front of them.
When it got dark, hundreds of people gathered at the gates of Lookout Star City.
However, the gates were closed.
Outside the city gate, a group of soldiers in armor and fierce armor guarded there with murderous vigour.
At the same time, there are archers on the floor ready to go.
The cries of men, the cries of women, and the cries of children make this place noisy.
At this time, one of the soldiers stood up and shouted: "If you want to enter the city, you must have a resident of the city who lives in the city come out to guide you, and you need to have a full body examination before you can enter the city." ”
Then he said: "If there are relatives, friends, or acquaintances in the city, come here to register, and we will send someone to notify you immediately." If there is no one to pick you up, then follow the path to the south to other villages and towns, and it is forbidden to enter the city! ”
As soon as these words came out, there was a burst of dissatisfied scolding from the crowd.
But with an army here, no one dares to make a mistake.
Some people who knew the residents of the city hurriedly rushed to register.
One soldier took the note and immediately rode into the city to inform the inhabitants to come and collect them, and if they did not come, they would have to be forbidden to enter the city.
There were also many people who didn't know the people in the city at all, so they had to leave crying.
Luo Qingfeng stood at the back of the crowd, looking at this scene, his heart suddenly felt a little hesitant.
Waited a little longer.
Just as he was about to leave from the south path, there was a sudden sound of horses' hooves behind him.
Immediately, several demon slayers, dressed in black power suits and covered in blood, rode horses.
The soldiers who stopped at the gate of the city immediately took the initiative to get out of the way.
The last rider suddenly stopped, looked at Luo Qingfeng on the side of the road and said in surprise: "Why haven't you entered yet?" ”
Luo Qingfeng's face showed a hint of bitterness.
The one who is on the horse is naturally the demon slayer nightingale.
She glanced at the door, immediately understood, raised her long legs, turned over and dismounted, and said, "Let's go, I'll take you in." ”
Luo Qingfeng followed behind her.
A soldier who was in charge of registration at the door hurriedly said with a smile: "This Lord of the Demon Suppression Courtyard, if you want to take him in, please also leave your name and his name, as well as the address where he lived before, and then you also need to leave the address where he will temporarily live after entering the city." By the way, we also need to check on him. ”
Nightingale nodded and walked over to the table to register.
The two soldiers each held a piece of jade and came to Luo Qingfeng, one on the left and the other on the right, and used the jade in their hands to stick to his clothes and body, and checked his whole body.
After making sure there were no problems, the two left.
At this time, the nightingale turned around and said, "Is there a temporary address?" ”
Luo Qingfeng was silent for a moment and shook his head.
The nightingale frowned slightly, hesitated, and had to write her address.
Luo Qingfeng finally entered the city smoothly.
The main road of Wangxing City is almost larger than all the streets and alleys of Qingquan Town combined.
The surrounding houses are even more majestic.
The streets are full of pedestrians, shops, and a dazzling array of goods, a lively and prosperous scene.
You know, it's just the outer city.
Nightingale asked, "Don't you have anyone you know in the city?" ”
Luo Qingfeng retracted his gaze and shook his head.
The nightingale was suddenly a little embarrassed.
Luo Qingfeng looked at her and said, "It's okay, you go back first, I'll find a place to stay tomorrow." ”
Nightingale thought for a moment and suddenly asked, "By the way, do you want to enter our Demon Suppression Courtyard?" If you go in, you don't have to worry about food and shelter, and you have money to take. ”
Luo Qingfeng said: "How to enter?" ”
Nightingale said: "Our hospital has just been recruiting people these days, and tomorrow morning, I will take you over." With your current cultivation and cultivation speed, there will definitely be no problem, and maybe you will still be focused on and cultivated. ”
Luo Qingfeng thought for a moment, nodded and said, "Then I'll try it tomorrow." ”
In fact, because he was abandoned in Linshan Village that night, and because of the fat man Meng, his impression of the Demon Suppression Courtyard was not very good.
But now he was penniless, and there was no one else he knew here, and even eating and sleeping were problems, and he had no choice.
Let's just find a place to stay.
Nightingale asked again, "And where are you staying tonight?" Inn? ”
Luo Qingfeng was silent for a moment and said, "Hmm." ”
Nightingale glanced at the street and said, "Let's go, I'll take you to find an inn first, if you go late, maybe it will be gone, there are too many people entering the city today." ”
Luo Qingfeng hurriedly said: "It's okay, I'll walk around first, and I'll find the inn myself later, you can go back first." It's getting dark, and your family is still waiting for you to come home for dinner, right? ”
Nightingale looked at the sky and nodded: "I really should go back, if I don't go back, my sister will come out to find me." ”
Luo Qingfeng said: "Go back quickly." ”
Nightingale suddenly smiled: "I forgot, you are not just a scholar, but also a cultivator, I shouldn't worry about you." ”
After saying that, he waved his hand and led the horse away.
After walking a distance, she suddenly paused again, turned her head and said, "By the way, you haven't eaten yet, have you?" ”
Luo Qingfeng hadn't eaten for two days.
And now he is penniless, he can't even afford a steamed bun, and as for the guest house, it is even more impossible.
He was going to find an alley or a temple of Guanyin for the night.
However, he did not tell the truth: "I'll go shopping first and eat later." ”
Nightingale paused and invited, "Let's go, let's go to my house for a meal first, and then go to the inn after eating." ”
A woman who has not left the cabinet invites a man to eat at home, which is not etiquette in the first place, and besides, there are no other men in her family, which is even more inappropriate.
She wouldn't have opened her mouth to invite.
However, the young man's words just now made her heart suddenly sour, and she remembered his current situation.
"It's getting dark, your family should still be waiting for you to come home for dinner, right?"
Yes, she does have family members waiting for her to come home for dinner, but what about him?
On this cold night in late autumn, his family was ruined and displaced, and here, let alone home and family, he didn't even know anyone except her.
If she hadn't returned to the city in time just now, it is estimated that he would not even be able to enter this city.
As for so many poor people, why would she only sympathize with him?
Who knows?
Maybe it's because she's been fascinated by his male color again?
"What are you doing? Let's go, just go have a meal, and it's not for you to do anything, I have other people in my house. ”
The nightingale laughed when he saw that he didn't seem to dare to go.
This teenager, at least made her relaxed.
Meanwhile.
At the entrance of the courtyard in a certain alley, a pretty girl in a patched black dress was leaning on the door frame, looking at the dark alley in a daze.
I don't know how long it took.
The sluggishness on her face suddenly disappeared.
In the alley ahead, the familiar and friendly figure finally returned, but behind her, there seemed to be another figure.
The other figure looked like ...... Also somewhat familiar.
