The two soldiers agreed, and walked over to surround the old man in the middle. The old lady Guan was short, and the two had to half-squat to put their ears together.
Cai Yaoyang took a few steps back casually, coughed and said, "It's okay, old lady, please speak." ”
Old lady Guan let out a strange laugh, Cai Yao raised his eyebrows and frowned, knowing that it was not good, but it was too late. The two box soldiers screamed in unison, and their ears were pulled together by the old man, and each bit off a piece!
Those van soldiers are used to oppressing the people and tyrannizing and domineering on weekdays, but today they have suffered such a big loss from an old man, how can they still endure it? One of the van soldiers came out and waved his hand with a knife, and the other van soldier made up two more knives, and for a while, the flesh and blood flew sideways, and the old lady Guan struggled a few times, and then he was silent.
Cai Yaoyang's heart was dark: "How can you say that it is also the family of General Guan Feidu, the 'General of Zhenbei'!
One of the soldiers turned his head with a knife in his hand, his face covered in blood, and he didn't know if it was his own or the old man's. I saw him smile at Cai Yaoyang: "What else does the general command?"
This smile was so weird that Cai Yaoyang was stunned, and it took a while to recover: "What about the cure?"
The soldier looked up to the sky and laughed, stabbed the long knife in his hand hard, stabbed the corpse of the old lady Guan in the chest and stabbed a big hole, and said in a deep voice: "We have already heard the method, do you want to tell the general immediately?"
Cai Yaoyang already understood in his heart, sneered, and waved his hand, Gou Yuhou and the other lieutenants immediately raised their knives and surrounded him, guarding him in the center.
The two of them glanced at each other, and with a "bang", kicked away the bloody corpse of the old man in their hands, turned around and walked towards the place where the resident was standing.
The inhabitants were so shocked that they cried out, "They're all infected with the plague, run away!" and the inhabitants fled in a swarm. The two soldiers kicked the ground, jumped up, and threw themselves into the crowd, and several residents who could not dodge were crushed to the ground by them, and they were immediately bitten by a wave of madness. The crowd was in chaos, crying and fleeing in all directions.
Leng Ruoya flew out, only to see her left hand flick a little, a little purple light flew by, and when one of the box soldiers touched the eyebrows, a puff of blue light suddenly dispersed, and the box soldier fell to the ground in anger before he could shout. The other person was horrified when he saw the tragic death of his companion, turned around and was about to flee, when he suddenly felt a cold forehead, and looked up only to see Leng Ruoya pointing at Rulan, between his eyebrows.
The soldier came back to his senses, suddenly knelt down, and cried: "The fairy girl spares her life, and the little one is forced to ......."
Mei Chao said coldly on the side: "What did Old Lady Guan say to you?"
The soldier pointed to the corpse of the old man in the distance, and cried bitterly: "It's him, it's all his evil words to confuse the public, he said that as long as he can bite the ear of a healthy person, this disease will be cured, we are all bewitched by him, not to hurt people, please Xian Gu, let ......me go."
As soon as he said this, there was silence all around. The injured and sick residents first looked around suspiciously, and then involuntarily looked at the healthy residents around them. The rest of the residents were alarmed and gradually retreated.
At this time, the bright moon was in the sky, and the blue and white moonlight illuminated the earth gloomily. The dozen or so wounded people gathered together, and their faces changed rapidly, from fear, pain, and despair, to a strange madness.
Cai Yaoyang frowned, and suddenly shouted: "These people are all crazy, General Ben ordered to be killed immediately, immediately killed!"
The soldiers carried knives, but you pushed me, and they didn't dare to step forward.
The two sides confronted each other for a moment, and the wounded suddenly let out several strange screams, and they were not afraid of the knives and axes in the hands of the Xiang army, and rushed up, whether it was the residents or the Xiang army, as long as they grabbed it, they would bite hard, even if the limbs of the body had been cut into a bloody blur, they would not let go. The most terrible thing is that as soon as those who were bitten were injured, they immediately joined the camp of the wounded and turned around and attacked their healthy companions.
-- The change was lightning fast.
Seeing that the situation was not good, Cai Yaoyang turned to one side, pretended to fall to the ground, tore his ear, and then raised his bloody hand and shouted to everyone: "Everyone stop!"
Cai Yaoyang has accumulated prestige for a long time, and these soldiers and people outside the city are quite jealous in their hearts. Hearing him drink like this, he slowly stopped biting.
Cai Yaoyang looked at the blood dripping from him, his expression was extremely gloomy, and said: "We are all injured, even if we bite again, the number of healthy people is not enough, it is better for us to kill into the city, there are many healthy people there, enough for us to bite!"
Those injured were exhausted and exhausted after a while. Hearing him say this, everyone felt hope again. Looking at each other, the relatives and friends who had just turned against each other gradually sat down in one place, and some of them even lit a fire and discussed ways to kill them into the city.
Sheng Jintang asked: "We only have about 300 people here, and there are about 4,000 soldiers and civilians in the city, which is more than ten times that of us, and there are three classes of fast bows and arrows to guard, how can we say that we can rush in?"
Cai Yaoyang smiled coldly: "General Ben just thought about it, if you cut down wood to make a few simple stone throwers, throw the seriously injured into the city, and find an opportunity to bite people. And then we shout here things like, 'Bite a healthy person's ear will heal,' and those who are bitten must be terrified and attack those next to them." At this moment, as long as the people we throw in do not die, we can take advantage of the chaos to open the city gate and let everyone in. ”
The residents looked up suspiciously, and under the light of the fire and the moon, the blue and black city walls looked unusually tall. The residents said secretly: "The city wall is more than a zhang high, and if you throw people from the stone throwing machine, you are afraid that you have fallen to your death before you bite others." ”
Cai Yaoyang was a little impatient, waved his hand, and said: "At the moment of life and death, of course, someone has to make sacrifices, as long as one person happens to fall on the wall, everyone is saved, what does it matter if a few people die?"
The residents said, "Then who wants to go?" After saying that, they all turned their eyes on others, and silently prayed in their hearts not to choose themselves.
Cai Yaoyang sneered: "It's up to everyone now. Someone!" he shouted, and the old troops picked up their blades again and stood up.
Cai Yaoyang seemed to be very satisfied with his leadership ability, smiled, then took a deep breath, and said loudly: "All residents are drawn for life and death under the custody of this general, and if they do not comply, they will be beheaded immediately to show the public!"
It is said to be a stone thrower, but it is a rough lever placed on a boulder under the city walls. At one end stood the drawn Ju, and at the other end stood three burly vanguards.
The first resident to be drawn was Huang Agou, who was in charge of transporting swill in the city, he stood at the end of the lever, looked down at his feet, only to feel trembling and dizzy under his feet, where could he still stand?
Huang Agou was short and was about to slide down, when two steel knives immediately hit his neck. He immediately cried: "Spare me, I'd rather wait outside the city to die, my wife is very sick, and I only rely on me to take care of the three children here......"
Cai Yaoyang couldn't stop crying when he looked at him, his hand sank, and there was immediately a blood mark on Huang Agou's neck, and Huang Agou's cry was as if he had been forcibly choked in his throat.
Cai Yaoyang said ruthlessly: "When the eldest husband dies, his ears are dead, what do he do when he cries? Not to mention whether he is alive or dead, it is still an unknown number." Since you also have a small family, you must think that if the city gate is opened, everyone has the hope of survival, for everyone, individuals must always make some sacrifices......" He withdrew his knife with a "swish", arched his hand to the trembling Huang Agou, and sneered: "This gift can be regarded as the general's send-off for the hero, take care!"
As soon as he spoke, he glanced at the three van soldiers, and the three of them jumped up in unison. Hearing only a "boom", the wooden pole under their feet immediately cracked several deep gaps, and the Huang Ah dog at that end was thrown far away like a kite with a broken string in the loud scream.
The residents below also exclaimed, only to see Huang Agou's body fold in the air, like a stone, and smash down towards the city. Listening to a few broken sounds of "click", Huang Agou's body slammed into the masonry at the head of the city, only a few bricks and stones collapsed, and the dust flew, and he himself spurted out a stream of blood from his mouth, and before he could scream, he was already silent, and his body was in the city, and he rolled to the ground.
Some of the people below couldn't bear to look at it anymore and covered their faces, and his family members and friends cried bitterly. Suddenly, someone exclaimed, "He's not dead yet!"
Everyone looked up and saw that Huang Agou's body happened to be hung on a broken brick at the head of the city by the corner of his clothes. He was not out of breath, but he was stopped by this force, and he woke up again, but it seemed that the bones of his whole body had been broken, and he hung like a puddle of mud on the head of the city and wailed.
"It's a success!" Cai Yaoyang's face showed a happy color, and he shouted to Huang Agou: "Climb up, climb up!
Huang Agou's body could still move, so he had to keep his head in the air, his face was covered with blood, his facial features were twisted by severe pain, and his body was like a lonely leaf swinging in the air, which looked really terrifying.
At this moment, a team of officials appeared at the head of the city, and they did not answer, but they raised their knives and slashed towards Huang Agou like cutting melons and beans. Poor Huang Agou's hands and feet were immediately cut off, and they rolled down to the city one after another, and the remnants of the body in the middle were still hanging firmly at the head of the city, like a flesh and blood flag, fluttering in the night wind.
A thick bloody aura permeated the sky above the city wall, and even the cold waning moon above the wall seemed to be dyed bright red.
Cai Yaoyang scolded, and for a moment he didn't care about anything else, pointed a knife at another resident who was drawn, and forced him to climb on the lever. The inhabitant was already frightened, and lay on the ground refusing to get up no matter how much he kicked and beaten.
Mei Chao was indifferent and speechless, but Leng Ruoya couldn't bear to look at it anymore, so she wanted to step forward to stop Cai Yaoyang from continuing to slaughter and kill innocent residents.
