Chapter 40: The House of Fire (I)

The thing condescendingly raised its head to the crowd below......

It was a look of contempt, and the firelight flickered, reflecting its inverted triangular head and a human-like distorted face on it.

The crowd wanted to look more closely, but the torch in the air had already fallen, and the thing took the opportunity to shrink into the darkness of the roof

Li Jingyu was a little dazed, and although the bow in his hand was pulled, he trembled a little.

"You can see clearly, the man ...... That thing?"

......

And they stood still.

Chen Chong seemed to have figured it out, and suddenly said: "That must be a chaotic party, wearing a strange style of head armor, poking his head out of the roof, deliberately stirring up demons." ”

Everyone in the audience nodded as if they had just woken up from a dream. Li Jingyu looked back, pulled out his bow and was about to shoot over.

The chaotic party on the roof suddenly rolled to the north, and jumped into the room through a gap. Seeing this, the voices of the people around him became louder and louder, and not far away, the officials who were patrolling the night also came over with lanterns.

"Chen Chong, lead people to guard this house on all sides, and quickly disperse the irrelevant crowd. The giant took the order, and ordered twenty of his own soldiers to lean towards the four corners of the house.

The official carrying the lantern approached, saw the flag of the camp on the chest of this group of knights, and quickly opened the formation to disperse the crowd on the side. "Hold the four corners, the rebels are inside!" the voices of the officials and the soldiers resounded around the house.

......

This house is a single-family restaurant a little far from the rest of the surrounding area, and there is a small courtyard with a sizable outside the restaurant. The courtyard wall of the small courtyard is built neatly with bluestone bricks, clean and tidy, and it looks like this restaurant should be considered a song

A place in the middle of the White City.

Li Jingyu turned over and dismounted, only to feel a small fire burning in his chest, and said, "Follow me, don't let this thief escape!" Seven or eight soldiers and two commanders jumped off their horses and followed him towards the house.

When they ran to the courtyard door to pull the door, they found that the bolt had been tightly fastened from the inside.

Two soldiers stepped forward and tried it, going to kick the door.

"Get out of the way!" Li Jingyu's arm suddenly turned into a piece of dead wood and smashed into the courtyard gate, and the bluestone walls around him jumped.

Durry made up for it, stuck his knife in the door and pulled it out. After General Li's blow just now, the thick bolt had already opened countless small openings inside, and it was naturally cracked open by Du Rui's knife.

......

There was a chill, and the first step into the gate of this courtyard made everyone feel indescribably strange. The courtyard was obviously filled with the smell of wine, and a large pot of beef was boiling on the stove not far away, but the huge yard was quiet and scary.

Could it be that there was such a big commotion outside just now, but the people staying inside still didn't react?

The men of the Xiuzi camp pulled out their knives at the same time, and Li Jingyu even took down the customary red tassel short gun from Du Rui.

There is also a gate from the courtyard to the restaurant.

Everyone divided the labor, some people formed a formation to seal the window, some people took knives to stand in front of the door left and right, and some people raised torches to help the general illuminate, and Li Jingyu himself wanted to pull the door.

The door opens.

A smell of blood mixed with the smell of wine rushed into everyone's noses like a storm, and a bloody man who seemed to have crawled out of hell opened his arms and pounced on Li Jingyu.

Although General Li expected that someone would ambush him, he did not expect such a random routine. He lowered his armor, grabbed the gun with one hand in his left hand and held the man against him, and with his right hand he took out the short knife he was carrying, and danced it.

The two captains simultaneously raised their shields and pressed towards the bloody man from both sides.

Li Jingyu's sharp sword slashed into the bloody man's body, but it was like cutting into rotten wood, and it was extremely dry. On the side of his body, he flew away and kicked the man to the ground, if an ordinary person was pulled with such a knife, he would have wailed in pain.

But the man didn't say a word, just fell to the ground silently.

One of the two captains kicked the bloody man, who would have thought that the head on the bloody man's neck shook and rolled down by himself. It turned out that his head was only leaning on the outermost layer of his neck, barely connected to his body

"Dead?" Durry rushed forward.

Everyone raised their torches and shone it carefully, and a very irregular wound hovered viciously on the back of the bloody man's neck. "He leaned against the door and tried to run, but was hacked to death from behind. Li Jingyu glanced at the corpse and took the lead in entering the house.

Some soldiers spat and scolded: "This traitor to the party is really vicious." ”

Li Jingyu, who led the way into the house, took a photo, and the first floor of the originally huge inn was now full of corpses. Some of them have their heads missing, and some of them are still hanging around their necks. More than a dozen tables and chairs on the ground were in a mess, except for a table in the center with a flipped candle dripping with wax.

Li Jingyu glanced at the seven or eight people behind him and divided everyone into two teams. One team looked at the closed kitchen door on the left side of the first floor, while the other team guarded the stairwell on the first floor.

General Li took the lead and stepped on the debris on the floor to open the kitchen door, and one of his own soldiers immediately retched with a sad face.

There were a few half-cut corpses left in the room, and it was not clear how many people they were, but they could only roughly infer from the terrible surface of the corpses that they were gnawed like this by something.

As if they had been picked and bitten by a beast, the softest parts of these people were gone, and all that remained on the ground at the moment were the limbs or skulls that were not suitable for swallowing.

Li Jingyu's expression was solemn and terrifying, Rao is has many years of experience in fighting in battle formations, and his stomach is also turning over at the moment. This is not a battle at all, it is a bloody and brutal massacre.

"General, what is this?" "Traitor, traitor to the party and cannibalism?" A senior who came in with Li Jingyu had an unnatural trembling voice.

Li Jingyu rolled his arms, and a few green tendons faintly appeared on his wrists, and then a layer of dead wood armor formed on his body. "Eyes wide open, brothers!"

As soon as he finished speaking, there was a sudden muffled bang outside the house.

Li Jingyu nodded to the ground, swept out of the house in two steps, and saw two pro-soldiers leaning close together, holding a blood-stained shield against a bloody man rolling down from the upper floor. As far as the eye can see, the most eye-catching thing is that the bloody man has only one leg left of white bones. If you look closely, you can also find some fangs on the bones that have scraped off the flesh.

Li Jingyu looked up at the blood marks that had slid down the stairs, and picked up the leg bones of the corpse with the tip of his gun, and a puddle of viscous pale yellow liquid suddenly dripped down Bai Shengsheng's leg bones.

This looks like the saliva of some beast!

As soon as the tip of the gun flipped over, he wanted to pull the man's lower body up and look more closely, but a pile of rotten intestines in the bloody man's stomach suddenly flowed out of the mouth.

"Whoa......

There was a dead silence in the darkness, and through the flickering light of the torches, you could catch the chattering teeth of the crowd.

Before entering the house, everyone was still surging with heroic feelings of arresting the traitorous party. But just after a while, a cold wind rolled up on the first floor of this hellish restaurant, crushing the flames in everyone's hearts.

Li Jingyu gritted his teeth without saying a word and continued to look towards the second floor.

"Here's someone, go out and call for some reinforcements!" Dury's voice was a little dry, and cold sweat was jumping down his neck

The soldiers who were a little further away were about to leave with torches.

There was a hole, and suddenly, it exploded from the second floor! A cold wind pressed against the head of the soldier.

The pro-soldier subconsciously turned sideways and wanted to greet him with the Pu knife in his hand, but he was still directly knocked out by the strong wind and smashed into a pile of broken corpses. He put his hands on the ground and tried to get up.

In the middle of his chest, he suddenly cracked, and blood poured out.

Li Jingyu grabbed the red tassel short gun, pointed his feet on the ground, raised his body, and stabbed at the black shadow in the strong wind with one hand in the air.

The night in the strong wind climbed up to the wall in a strange posture and waved his hand.

A shot suddenly flew out of the darkness and stuck it in the right shoulder of the chief who was about to raise his hand and raise his shield, and this shot was so powerful that it directly carried his body deep into the wall panel behind him.

Standing on the stairs, Du Rui was furious and yelled, "Are you fucking sleeping?"

The two soldiers who were holding torches and approaching the dark shadow trembled all over.

"This, what the is this!"
