In January of the 198th year of Da Chen, the new emperor ascended the throne, granted amnesty to the world, and widely implemented benevolent government.

In the six years that followed, the wind and rain were smooth, and all the people praised him.

In the seventh year, the heavens and the earth changed suddenly, first half a year of heavy rain, flooding everywhere, and then a major drought, as long as half a year, crops everywhere were not harvested, starvation was everywhere, fleeing famine became a trend, and the people were resentful.

Then, there was a sudden change.

First, on the northern coast, the tragedy of cannibalism was reported, and then it evolved into a starving people who lived by sucking human blood, which was a serious disaster, and it was rumored that the countryside was haunted by blood-sucking demons.

The court sent a master to eliminate the demon, and the vampire demon was pacified.

However, in March, the vampire demon reappeared, with a large number of people, hundreds or thousands, and they were devoured in the villages, treating people as livestock, and everywhere they passed, there was no grass growing, only empty skins were left innumerable, and the tragic situation was comparable to hell.

The state and county sent a large army to encircle and suppress, but they were defeated, and countless soldiers turned into blood-sucking demons.

In less than a month, most of the counties in Qingzhou have fallen into the hands of bloodsucking demons, and the number of dead has reached 100,000.

In the following half a year, the imperial court sent troops to encircle and suppress several times, to no avail, but the more vampire demons are coming, to the spring of the ninth year of Yuping, Qingzhou has all fallen, at the same time, Xuzhou, Youzhou, Jiangzhou, Jiaozhou four states also have vampire demons infested.

Since then, the rebellion of the vampire demons has been difficult to contain.

To Yuping ten years, the world's seventeen states, half of the land is infected by vampire demons, including Qing, Xu, Jiang, Jiao four states fell, Jing, Yang, Yi, Yu, Yan, Ji, You all have vampire demons to make chaos, plus natural disasters continue, but in two years, Chengping's two hundred years of empire has been a great chaos in the world.

In June of the tenth year of Yuping, the vampire demon conquered Jizhou and surrounded Youzhou with the demons of Youzhou, and the capital was in danger.

In July, Chen Ba, the king of Da Chen Shun, fought the vampire demon in the wilderness of Youzhou, severely injured the vampire demon king and killed one person, but the army was difficult to stop, at the end of July, the vampire demon army had besieged Gyeonggi, and the world was in an uproar.

At this time, it was August.

It should be the Mid-Autumn Festival of family reunion and celebration in the whole city, but the capital is gloomy and bleak, there are few cars and horses on the street, everyone comes and goes in a hurry, the face is relative, and from time to time there are heavily armed soldiers patrolling by, and the shops in the city are also closed in eight out of ten, and there is no longer half of the prosperity and liveliness of the world's largest city in the past.

In such a time, even if it is a wild song, it will never be with the world, and it is claimed that even if the war horse of the enemy country has stepped on the door, it is necessary to take advantage of the moment when the war horse is charging to drink a few more sips of wine, watch a few songs and dances, and then throw away the rest of the money on his body, betting that he will fall to the ground after a few moments, and the hustle and bustle to the extreme of the gold building is also deserted.

After all, it is claimed to be a claim, whether it is true or not, it is not a real thing, it doesn't matter how you say it, after all, it will not lose half a piece of meat, but the real knife on the neck is a completely different feeling.

At this moment, the knife was already on the road, and the sound of horses' hooves seemed to be looming.

The vampire demon is already outside the capital.

No one can really be optimistic.

"I said, everyone, what's going on? They are all like sick cats, lively, this gold building is for everyone to find happiness, feelings are you here to cry and mourn?" Just when everyone was silent and the atmosphere of the whole building dropped to the freezing point, a person's voice suddenly sounded from the tall building, and it seemed that he hated iron and steel.

"Come on, Sixteenth Master, you really don't have a backache when you stand and talk, after you are a meritorious service, even if the vampire demon comes, it can't suck your blood, we are all ordinary people, and we don't know how to die. Hearing someone say something cool, some people couldn't sit still, and immediately ridiculed each other.

If it was ten years ago, it would not have been possible for this conversation to happen, because the surnamed Wang who spoke above was the son of the general Wang Weiwei at that time, ranked sixteenth, and that was a first-class magnate, even if he spoke, no matter how ugly it sounded, the people below could only endure listening.

However, the time has changed, the Mid-Autumn Festival coup d'état that year, the general Wang Bufu stood on the wrong team, and the then prince Chen Jianwei failed to rebel, and Wang Bubu was sentenced for most of the time.

Although Wang Buyi participated in the successful coup d'état and obtained the power of the Wang family, he was preparing to show his skills, but he died before he could get out of the school, and soon died in a vicious battle.

Therefore, when Wang Sixteen spoke, someone immediately refuted it.

Wang Sixteen was immediately furious when he heard this, not that he felt that his authority had been provoked, authority or something, he was long gone, his anger was just an anger that suddenly fell in his identity, this anger lasted for almost ten years, but it still did not disappear, and he felt that he had been humiliated.

Speaking of which, the person who spoke was also vicious, and he didn't pick anything, but picked a sentence of merit and said it later.

Speaking of Wang Sixteen seriously, now is after the rebellion, even if it is said that the Wang family's exploits from the dragon have passed for ten years, the Wang family's talents have withered, and the emperor is about to forget the Wang family, and there is no merit at all.

This was a fundamental attack on Wang Sixteen, and Wang Sixteen was extremely angry.

"Which bastard is talking!? Give you the sixteenth master to come out, Lao Tzu wants you to look good!"

One stone stirs up a thousand waves.

Countless people immediately responded to him.

"Yo, who is so majestic in my way, it turns out that it is the Sixteenth Master Wang, you have gone up to the eighteenth floor again, where did you make a fortune, wouldn't you steal the private money of the servants of the family again?

"Hahaha, I'll bet on twenty, no, twenty-one, if anyone bets with me, I'll pay a thousand taels!"

"Hahaha, I'm laughing to death, I'm betting, I'm betting, I'm going to pay two thousand taels, I'm definitely more than twenty-one!"

"Sixteenth Master Wang, do you want to gamble on a shop too? Oh, I forgot that you can't take out ten taels of silver on you now, right?

......

"You...... You ......" Wang Sixteen only felt that his chest was stuffy, his mind was dizzy, and the world was spinning, and he couldn't wait for a mouthful of blood to spurt out and squirt these bastards to death.

But in the end, he still fell down, this kind of ridicule, it is not the first time he has heard it, in the past ten years, he doesn't know how many times he has heard it, at the beginning of hearing it, he can still fight with people, fight with people, but after being beaten several times in a row and can't stand up, he suddenly understands that he has nothing, even martial arts are not other people's opponents at all, in vain he is still a famous family.

But when he takes off the hat of a famous family, he is nothing.

He had resigned himself to his fate.

I have long accepted my fate.

He came here today, not to look for trouble, but to last come to remember, because he has already received the exact news, the emperor has abandoned the capital, the army has long been quietly evacuating, the capital is destroyed is only a matter of time, the vampire demon enters the city, this gold building will inevitably be unsafe, so he came to take a final look at this building full of the best years of his life.

It's just that as soon as he stood upstairs, he couldn't help but feel emotional, and his old state relapsed, and now he was pierced, and immediately like a punctured ball, he softened and smiled bitterly.

It's really a dream.

"Waste ......" Just as he sighed to himself, someone suddenly sneered, not loud, but enough for him to hear.

He suddenly raised his head, and was about to scold angrily, but he was immediately stunned for a moment and said, "It's you." ”

The person who scolded him was none other than Li San, his rival Li San when he was free in the past, and he was standing on the opposite side of the building at the moment looking at him coldly, but in the end, the years were unforgivable, and Li Sanye, who was suave in the past, is now also full of wind and frost, and he is no longer the same as he was back then.

Wang Sixteen knew that Li San had not had a good time these years, when the coup d'état, although his Li family also stood as the new emperor, but the old minister of the Li family died early, and the Li family also had no successor, and after several officialdom dumping, the former prime minister's house has now become no different from the Wang family.

Hearing Li San say this about him, he finally had the confidence to ridicule him and said, "Aren't you the same?"

Li San snorted coldly.

The two looked at each other angrily, and after a while, they almost said in unison: "Are you also ......?"

Then, there was silence.

And downstairs, it has evolved from ridiculing Wang Sixteen to discussing the current situation, after all, danger is close at hand, even the Pinjin Building, which has always been known for its drunken dreams and death, is no exception.

"You say, when will this vampire demon be able to retreat?"

"The capital is the capital of a country, the capital is in an emergency, and the world will definitely do its best to save it, not to mention that there are 100,000 soldiers of the Son of Heaven guarding the capital, and the siege of the capital will be solved in a few days. ”

"Brother Zhou's words are very true, I also heard that the major families and sects have formed a demon slaying alliance, and they are already on the way, so everyone can drink with confidence. ”

"Yes, yes, everyone, even if they drink, and even if those vampires really enter the city, with the strength of my Jinlou people, even if one person spits and spits, they can drown them, come!

"Brother Ge said wonderfully, the younger brother has practiced a demon killing knife technique today, and he is about to meet those demons, but he is worried that there is no place to show it, come, Brother Ge, I will give you a cup!"

There is a hustle and bustle, as if the hall is full of heroes.

The two people upstairs who really knew about it, Li San and Wang Sixteen, looked at each other coldly, and sneered in their stomachs.

After a while, Li San suddenly coughed and said to the people downstairs: "Everyone, my Wang has a bet, I don't know if you dare to take it?"

"What's not to dare?"

"I'm afraid you poor devil has no money!"

"Come on, Sixteen!"

"Good. Wang Sixteen didn't get angry anymore, but said, "Let's make a bet, when will the vampire demon enter the city!"

His last word fell, and the room was silent.

Although the Pinjin Building is known as having nothing to do in the world and no one can gamble, even if Shen Yi, the owner of the previous generation of Pinjin Building, participated in the rebellion and was executed, the entire Pinjin Building was confiscated, and it has never changed.

But in the end, this is about the lives of all people, so there was silence for a while.

Then, there is the scolding.

"What are you talking about?

"Aren't you afraid that Lao Tzu will go to the emperor to accuse you of a demon to confuse the public?"

"Wang Sixteen, you want to go crazy about money, right?"

"Don't you dare?" Wang Sixteen just sneered.

"Why don't you dare?" everyone sneered.

"I'll bet a thousand taels, that vampire demon will never be able to attack in his life!"

"I'll bet two thousand taels and win, and I'll kill you bastard!"

"Ten thousand taels!"

Soon a group of people bid, and then Li San, who was opposite Wang Sixteen, suddenly asked, "Then how much money do you pay?"

"I don't have a penny, I'll bet on my life! If I lose, I'll jump from here!" Wang Sixteen was categorical, this should be the most desperate moment in his gambler career.

"Phew, it's cheaper to die, your grandson!"

The scolding below was endless, but they still accepted the bet, and in the end, everyone bet that it was impossible for the vampire demon to enter the city, with only one exception, it was actually Li San.

Wang Sixteen looked at him and was stunned for a moment, then sneered again, revealing a knowing expression.

The gambling game has been decided, Wang Sixteen is ready to leave, the gold building is all over the world, as long as he takes the gambling ticket, he can get money anywhere, he doesn't want to stay in the capital and wait for death.

But just as he was about to get up, shouts and fighting suddenly sounded outside, and someone shouted as if they were running for their lives: "The city is broken!

With this sentence, the people downstairs who had just won the game were thrown into the Infernal Hell, all of them with pale faces and desperate eyes.

"Someone must be maliciously spreading rumors! Is Wang Sixteen the person you sold through?" someone shouted.

However, before the others rushed upstairs to question Wang Sixteen, the fast horse of the Golden Building had already arrived, which was usually very calm, and the messenger who could be indifferent no matter what the scene was, was also sad at the moment, and just shouted loudly: "The south gate has been broken, the vampire demon has entered the city, Wang Sixteen wins!" and hurriedly left, before leaving, he still had some feelings, and said to everyone, run quickly, everyone.

So, there was chaos, and the heroes who were laughing out loud a moment ago about how to kill demons dispersed.

Wang Sixteen looked downstairs blankly, at a loss, he won, but he didn't know how, his heart was empty, not a taste.

But he quickly cheered up, gritted his teeth, and went downstairs to get the gambling ticket and ran away, after all, there are all over the world, and you can withdraw money anywhere.

Then he looked up, but found that Li San hadn't left yet, and couldn't help but look at him strangely, before he could ask him if he was scared stupid.

Li San suddenly laughed.

"What are you laughing at?" Wang Sixteen couldn't help but ask.

"I just remembered someone out of the blue. ”

"Who?"

"A man named Gu Yue'an. ”

Gu Yue'an.

What a long name, even after so many years, Wang Sixteen is still unforgettable.

"If this man is here, even if the city is broken, even if there are countless vampire demons, he will definitely just move forward. Li San sneered and shook his head, "How can you see a group of clowns jumping off the beam?"

“...... We are not Gu Yue'an. Wang Sixteen just shook his head.

Then he didn't want to speak anymore, and turned his head to leave, but suddenly heard Li San call him: "Wang Sixteen, my Li has the last bet in this life, and I want to bet with you, do you dare?"

“...... What bet?" Wang Sixteen stopped.

"I heard that you practiced swords day and night in order to revive the Wang family, I don't know how effective it is?" Li San asked without answering.

"What are you asking for?"

"My Li Wei has been absurd all his life, and now he has six parties in his thirties before he remembers to practice martial arts to strengthen his body, protect his family and defend the country, and he learned a knife technique from a famous teacher a year ago, and he practiced hard day and night, but he never had the opportunity to fight, today, the vampire demon just came to die, I want to try the knife, and I bet with you on the last shop...... Just bet, who kills more vampire demons!" Li San word by word, "Do you dare?"

"......" Wang Sixteen was silent.

Li San had already gone downstairs.

"When you leave the capital, there is still the world to go, so why rush for a while?"

"The capital is broken, is there still a place to go in the world?"

Li San walked to the tenth step.

Wang Sixteen suddenly slapped the railing and said loudly: "Li San, my Wang Sixteen can't do anything else, gamble...... Who was Lao Tzu afraid of?!"

With that, he went downstairs as well.

The two went out side by side, and Wang Sixteen suddenly said loudly: "Guan Zi said, sacrifice life and forget death!"

"Yiye!" Li San responded in response.

"The pipe didn't say that!" said suddenly, someone behind them.

"I want you to talk more!" The two looked back angrily, but they found that the person who said good was none other than Xu Yan, the Chang'an merchant back then.

"You add one to me!" Xu Yan strode over.

Outside, the sound of killing shook the sky, but the steps of the three people were unwavering.

On that day, the vampire demon broke through the capital, killing countless people, and the heavenly street was stained with blood.
