Chapter 304: Zhu'an Dead City

Standing in the Wufu of Zhu'an City, for a long time, no one spoke, the atmosphere was a little suffocating, and the corpses of the sergeants lying on the square made all the Dongwangfu soldiers feel cold.

In a battle, the two sides attack each other, kill each other for the things they hold on to their hearts, and kill each other. These, as long as they are soldiers, can be accepted, this is their mission.

But seeing the group of soldiers who died silently in front of them, all the Dongwangfu soldiers felt a chill in their hearts, and their faces were solemn.

None of the people present were greedy for life and afraid of death, but they were silent and meaningless in their fear of death. And the scene they saw in front of them hit the hearts of all the soldiers of the Eastern Palace, making them feel timid.

Not only did these centurions think so in their hearts, but even Ye Guan and Kou Long on the side also had a trace of cowardice in their hearts. Thinking of the strange events they had experienced above the city before, and the fact that the sergeant in front of them had the same way of dying as their own sergeant, the two of them had to think.

The strange celestial image anomaly that appeared above the city should be directly related to the soldiers who died in front of them, as well as the tens of thousands of people who died before. Everyone's deaths must have something to do with the strange black whirlpool, but they had no clue how this whirlpool was formed, who arranged it, and why so many people were killed.

Fifty sergeants stood quietly in front of the gate of the Wufu in Zhu'an City, quietly looking at the sergeants lying in the square in front of them, without saying a word.

Ye Guan closed his eyes slightly, trying to restore his mind to clarity and analyze the situation in front of him. But as soon as I closed my eyes, there was a strange mountain of corpses in front of me, and this picture could not be separated from it no matter what.

After a long time, only to hear the chaotic sound of horses' hooves behind him, Ye Guan opened his eyes, the situation of the corpse mountain in his mind disappeared, he glanced at the square in front of him again, sighed softly, and turned around and walked out of the gate of the Martial Mansion.

Coming was the sergeant of the East Wangfu, a whole brigade, sent by Ding Jiang, who directly obeyed Ye Guan's orders. Seeing Ye Guan come out at this moment, all the sergeants dismounted one after another, clasped their fists and saluted.

Ye Guan waved his hand lightly and said, "In the Martial Mansion, there are a large number of enclave sergeants, you wait and go in, check carefully, and if you find any live mouths, bring them to me." Immediately, Ye looked at Kou Long and said softly: "General Kou, you stay here and command the sergeant, and you will check all the corpses once, and report the accurate number to me later." ”

"Honorable Order. Koron clasped his hands into fists and saluted respectfully. Ye Guan nodded lightly, no longer looking at the martial arts behind him, but stepped forward. The sergeants on the front made way for Ye Guan one after another, and Ye Guan walked quietly on the street like this, feeling beyond words in his heart.

As the two thousand soldiers entered Zhu'an City, the illusion outside was self-defeating. In fact, as early as after Ye Guan rang the bronze bell of the watchtower in Zhu'an City, the sound of the earth-shattering drums could no longer be heard in the military camp, and no one could be seen on the city.

The corpses of the sergeants on the city walls have been cleaned up, and the few who are still alive have been returned to the camp. The few people who were alive were unconscious, still with peaceful smiles on their faces, as if they had seen what their hearts longed for the most, and fell into endless sweet dreams.

The herald simply reported the matter of the military camp to Ye Guan, who had returned to the watchtower, and bowed down. At this moment, in the entire Zhu'an City Watchtower, only Ye Guan himself.

He stood quietly in front of the huge bronze bell, silently looking at the bronze bell, looking at all the fine patterns on it, every detail, all in sight.

I carefully looked at the entire bronze bell, and checked it again with my fighting spirit, but I couldn't find any clues on this bronze bell, this is an ordinary bronze bell, but the scale is larger.

Ye Guan turned around, sat in front of the bookcase on the side, held his forehead with one hand, and kneaded gently. At this moment, he is physically and mentally exhausted.

He couldn't get any useful clues to explain what happened in Zhu'an City today, and there was not a single clue. Before, he hit the bronze bell and caused the vision of heaven and earth, but now it seems that it seems to be a coincidence, just when he hit the bronze bell, the vision of heaven and earth was activated.

And the sudden change of color, the strange black vortex in the sky, and the eyes in the whirlpool that Ye Guan felt, made Ye Guan feel a little palpitating now. The power generated by that whirlpool was not something he could compete with at all, if the maker of this whirlpool was the person behind Shen Tuyan, no matter how many people he gave to Ye Guan, he would not have the ability to take Qiu Chang City.

It's just that what happened today is so weird that it's just appalling. Looking at the number of corpses in the mansion and the martial arts, in this Zhu'an City, nearly half of the living people died there, and they died silently, they should have been robbed of life by the black vortex that appeared in the sky, and died tragically on the spot.

Thinking of this, Ye Guan suddenly had an idea and thought of something.

"The number of dead bodies is only about half of the population of this Zhu'an City, where is the other half at the moment?" Ye Guan suddenly thought of this question.

The city of Zhu'an is a strong city with a large area, a population of more than 100,000, and a large number of defenders. Although the information does not indicate a specific figure, it is possible to estimate the approximate figure. Such a large population will not disappear in a vacuum, and even if tens of thousands of corpses are found, at least half of the population will still be without a trace.

Thinking of this, Ye Guan immediately had the spirit, if he could find the remaining half of the living people in Zhu'an City, then he would be able to know what had happened in Zhu'an City in the past few days from their mouths, so as to deduce where today's strange things came from.

Ye Guan stood up directly, walked out of the watchtower quickly, there were two sergeants on duty outside the building, Ye Guan immediately said: "Pass my order to the two generals, order half of the sergeants to stop their actions immediately, and immediately start a search of the whole city, carefully search all the houses, and find the remaining traces of the population in Zhu'an City, if there are any clues, you can come to report to me." ”

"Honorable Order!" the sergeant immediately clasped his hands into fists, saluted respectfully, and then quickly descended the city wall along the stairs and ran in the direction of Wufu.

Ye Guan stood on the city wall, looked into the distance inside the city, and saw that in front of the Martial Mansion, many sergeants were cleaning up the corpses of the dead soldiers in the Martial Mansion, carefully counting and checking them one by one. Ye Guan sighed softly, and no longer stayed on the city wall, walked down the stairs, and followed the streets of Zhu'an City, carefully inspecting the houses on the left and right.

He didn't have to worry about the herald not being able to find him, and at this moment, there were two thousand sergeants in Zhu'an City, and not all of them went to clean up the bodies of the dead. To be on the safe side, Koron and Ding Jiang divided the two thousand sergeants into two groups, one thousand of whom were responsible for examining the bodies of the two dead, and the remaining one thousand were divided into several teams to patrol the city. The order he just gave is also in line with the current deployment of troops.

Zhu'an City is not a rich city, but the buildings in the city are ancient and simple, and they are very charming. Legend has it that Jukan Castle has been around for hundreds of years, and if you look at the buildings on both sides of the road, it is true.

Ye Guan carefully inspected a few shops, and found that there were many goods in this shop, all of which were neatly placed, and all the shops looked like they were in business, but there was no one inside, so contrasting, revealing a slight sense of weirdness.

In the blink of an eye, the scorching sun was heading westward, and in the evening, Ye Guan had carefully inspected all the shops on both sides of the main street. Apart from the fact that all the shops were found to be in normal business condition, nothing unusual was found, and not a single person was found. In the accounts of some shops, there is even silver placed on the table so obviously, and the abacus and account books are placed aside.

After inspecting all the shops, Ye Guan's brows furrowed even tighter, and he didn't find anything weird, which was the weirdest thing.

Anything that happens, it will leave clues, even if the body is weird and the cultivation is profound, it will inevitably leave traces. But the disappearance of the people in the shops on the left and right seemed to be logical, and no abnormal traces could be found in it, as if everyone really left calmly, gave up everything in Zhu'an City, and disappeared.

Ye Guan stood in the middle of the street, looking left and right at the shops facing the street, his mind was in chaos, and he didn't know where to start.

At this moment, the sound of military boots stomping on the ground suddenly came to mind, and the sound was getting closer and closer, Ye Guan looked back and saw a sergeant running towards him. When he came closer, the sergeant knelt on one knee, clasped his hands into fists, and said respectfully to Ye Guan: "Tell Commander Ye that you have found traces of other people in Zhu'an City." ”

When Ye Guan heard this, his heart suddenly burst out, and he immediately said, "Where is it?"

When the sergeant heard this, he didn't talk nonsense, he immediately got up, ran along the side of the street, and ran into the distance, Ye Guan hurriedly followed, and the two of them were fast.

Passing through the streets, the sergeant finally stopped outside a remote courtyard, Ye Guan looked left and right, and saw that many sergeants were on duty around the courtyard, and the general Kou Long was standing at the gate of the courtyard, looking inside, his face was sinking like water.

The atmosphere was a little depressing, Ye Guan felt bad in his heart, and immediately took a few steps forward, came to Kou Long's side, and looked straight into the courtyard.

The courtyard is remote, but the area is larger than the courtyard I saw before, looking at the courtyard, I saw many cloth people standing in the courtyard, everyone is smiling peacefully, looking at the sky, the corners of the mouth show a smile, and the eyes are dull.

Seeing this, Ye Guan immediately stepped forward, but then felt that his arm was tight, and when he turned his head to look, he saw that Kou Long was clutching his arm, and said anxiously: "Chief Ye don't go in, it's dangerous!"

Ye Guan was stunned in his heart, he didn't know why, Kou Long was busy: "The sergeant who first discovered this place also saw these living people, and immediately stepped forward to ask, at this moment, the sergeant was there." As he spoke, Kou Long stretched out his hand and pointed to a few people not far away, Ye Guan looked in the direction of Kou Long's finger, but saw several soldiers of the Eastern Palace, wearing armor, like everyone in the courtyard, with dull eyes, looking at the sky, no matter how they shouted on the side, they didn't make the slightest movement.

Seeing this situation, Ye Guan was shocked. He immediately thought of the strange thing that had happened before.

The three generals stood on the city wall with him and fifty sergeants, experienced a vision in the sky, and saw the strange black vortex, the fifty sergeants were almost dead, and Kou Long and Ding Jiang also resisted with their deep cultivation. Before the death of many sergeants, they also had this expression, and they were also like this, looking at the sky with dull eyes.

Thinking of this, Ye Guan's heart sank, and he used his whole body to fight with his strength, and suddenly hit his own sergeant on the side. Only a light cyan fighting aura flashed out quickly, and it went straight into the body of the nearest sergeant.

At the moment when the fighting spirit was gone, the sergeant's face was deadlocked, and after a while, he fell to the ground with his eyes closed, not knowing whether he was alive or dead.

"Commander Ye...... Right now...... What should I do?" Seeing that Ye Guan was fighting at this time, it was exactly the same as the situation when he rescued the sergeant before, and he immediately lost his mind.
