Chapter 77 Attack of the Ghouls
Zhenzhucheng, originally named Tianfangcheng, was the front line of the previous dynasty to resist the nomadic peoples on the grasslands. Since the unification of the Western Qin Dynasty, it has been abandoned for nearly a hundred years.
Later, the Hungry Ghost Hell devoured the Yin and Yang in the Western Qin Dynasty, and then opened up the separation of Yin and Yang, and came to the human world.
The wall of Zhenzhucheng is only more than three meters high, and the diameter of one side is only five kilometers. It is covered with scratches and blood, dark red and inconspicuous.
It is precisely with such a city that humans can take root in the hundreds of thousands of square kilometers of land behind them and resist the continuous attacks of hell.
At this moment, several cavalrymen rode their horses into the prison city quickly. They were the explorers who fell outside and went deep into hell.
"Report..."
The explorer did not wait for the horses to stop, and jumped off the horses in unison. Without having time to breathe, the group ran into the prison city.
Through the corridors of five or six heavy soldiers, pedestrians made a clear path. They just took a curious look at the quester cavalry who was rushing to the pass and then used to do things.
At the center of the capital, there is a thousand-mile defense line, the center of hundreds of thousands of border troops, and the mansion of the General of the Prison.
The General's Mansion consists of ten houses, each of which has different uses, and there are counselors, civil servants and military generals who handle official duties.
The largest room in the center is where the highest ruler of the Northern Prison Army, General Meng Tian, is located.
"There is a tribe with a gathering of corpses and ghosts about thirty kilometers southwest, and is moving forward in the mainland."
The sergeant commander went straight into one of the side rooms and immediately reported his information.
The Corpse Ghost Tribe is the most common type of ghost after the fusion of the hungry ghost hell. People die in the extreme yin land, and the heavenly souls and earth souls dissipate. The soul absorbs the yin energy but does not transform into a fierce ghost, so they manipulate the corpse to wander around.
Bang!
A flag was thrown before him, and the leader of the counselor who handled things said calmly and coldly: "Go to the military camp to lead a garrison of troops to strangle."
The Western Qin Dynasty organized a group of five people, one troop, ten people, one troop, and fifty people.
"yes!"
The sergeant captain picked up the flag and ran back without looking back, not daring to delay for a moment.
The exploring cavalry that came and went did not cause any trouble. The General's Mansion dealt with these things every day, no less than ten a day.
This is just a tide of small corpse ghosts within a radius of hundreds of miles. Once the number exceeds a certain number or exceeds a radius of hundreds of miles, there will be local prison troops stationed in the city to deal with it.
The sergeant commander led his group to the military camp outside the city, and they stopped as soon as they arrived at the door.
Zhang Sizi, the sergeant commander of the cavalry, raised the flag and shouted: "Zhang Sizi of the cavalry camp passed the order of Zeng Qun's military advisor, and a garrison of troops followed me to wipe out the corpse and ghost tribe."
Crazy...
The closed barracks slowly opened, and with the uniform sound, the cavalry of a trellis ran out in full arms.
The leading treasury leader grabbed the war horse and said, "Treasury leader Li Da, please hand over the order."
Zhang Sizi threw the banner over, Li Da grabbed it, looked carefully, and put it in his clothes to keep it properly.
"lead the way."
Zhang Sizi didn't speak, and went to the Ghost Tribe first.
At this time, Xin Fan looked at the loess wasteland with sweat and licked his dry lips with his tongue.
He came out in a hurry and didn't bring any dry food. He ran all the way for half a journey, and began to rumbling in his stomach.
"No, I have to go to the prison city as soon as possible. My son must be possessed by a demon. My parents and Zhen Niang must be in danger."
When Xin Fan thought of this, his heavy steps became a little lighter and walked along the familiar road.
After walking for almost half an hour, Xin Fan couldn't help but slow down again, supporting his thighs with both hands, gasping for breath, and his anxiety in his heart did not decrease at all.
At this time, he suddenly found dust flying in the distance. He was stunned for a moment, rubbed his eyes hard, and squirted, leaning on the ground, his butt raised, and his ears were close to the ground.
"Cavals are army..."
Living on the border, it was broad daylight again, Xin Fan was naturally familiar with this sound. He raised his head in surprise, and suddenly screamed wildly and ran towards the cavalry.
Wow…!
Zhang Sizi had a clear ear and eyes. He discovered Xin Fan at the first time and immediately reached out to stop the troops from moving forward.
The group stopped there and saw Xin Fan rolling and crawling from the left dirt slope and running over.
"You are the third son of Xintian Village. Isn't your family going to give birth? Are you so good at here?"
Zhang Sizi knew every radius of hundreds of miles, and he knew everyone in every village.
He looked at Xin Fan's embarrassed look and suddenly thought of something, frowned and asked, "Has the Ghost Tribe arrived in your Xintian Village? No, I have sent someone to notify you to evacuate. At the speed of the Ghost, I am afraid that I have just arrived near your village."
Xin Fan recovered at this time and quickly said, "Corpse Ghost Tribe? What kind of corpse Ghost? I didn't see it on the road. I came out to find the general. My son was possessed by a demon. Brother Zhang, you have to save my parents, Zhenniang, the eldest, the second and the others."
Zhang Sizi immediately shouted, "What? Are you sure you are talking about? That's your son, no joke."
Western Qin, especially the border army, would have always been better off killing the wrong person and not letting go of the situation like possession.
Xin Fan said with pain on his face and gritted his teeth: "How could I lie? My father said he was the reincarnation of an immortal, but I think he was a demon, the demon that killed my son."
"If so, were those ghouls going for him?"
Zhang Sizi believed it eighty times. He knew that Xin Hao, as his senior, was knowledgeable. Since he did not stop Xin Fan from coming out, it means that it was true.
Zhang Sizi didn't dare to delay and said, "You go and ride Dongzi's war horse, let's go back together."
Zhang Sizi immediately turned around and told Li Da about the matter, saying, "If this matter is not unexpected, that demon is at its weakest time. We'd better hurry up and don't let him escape."
"Well, you send someone back to report, we will leave now. Those demons are weird and running away will be another disaster."
The group ran towards Xintian Village at a faster speed.
At this time, a ride outside Xintian Village passed through the rice fields and headed straight to the entrance of the village. When he left, he shouted to the villagers in the fields: "The corpse ghost is coming, hurry up and gather at the entrance of the village."
Step on...
Shen Huixian, who was lying in Zhenniang's arms, suddenly opened her eyes.
Xin Hao took a hatchet and broke in from outside, shouting, "Is it you?"
"What happened?"
Shen Huixian was held in Zhenniang's arms and looked at the other person silently.
"Okay, you're going to pretend to be stupid for me." Xin Hao didn't say the reason, so he didn't snatch Shen Huixian and snatched him away. His strength was so great that Zhenniang couldn't stop him.
"father……!"
Zhenniang let out a heart-wrenching cry and lay on the bed in great pain.
As early as Xin Hao said that Shen Huixian was a top immortal, she was always worried and scared, and this was the scene.
Xin Hao glanced at Zhenniang, turned around without looking back, and shouted loudly: "Old lady, take Zhenniang to the cellar of the back mountain...!"
Seeing Xin Hao leave quickly, Zhenniang was so angry that she couldn't breathe. Her tears fell down without any money. The old woman walked in with a bowl of rice soup and said quietly:
"My life is a miserable child, stop crying. You are very weak and you will drink the soup soon."
"mom……"
Zhenniang suddenly got up, her face covered in tears was full of grievance and panic: "Mom, I beg you, go find dad, tell him not to hurt the child, don't..."
"Okay, okay, I'll go, I'll go later. Don't panic, drink the soup..." The old woman quickly comforted Zhenniang, with anxiety and sadness on her face.
That was her grandson, how could she have no feelings?
Xin Hao hugged Chen Huixian and headed straight to the earth slope in front of the door.
Lying in Xin Hao's arms, the dazzling sunshine shone on his body, Chen Huixian only felt particularly intimate, and the strong warmth exuded endless joy.
Wow!
Among the group of corpse ghosts, a burly corpse ghost wearing armor took a few breaths, and his turbid green pupils shrank, turning into the size of a mung bean and staring at the distance.
“Woooo…!”
The speed of the corpse ghosts increased in vain and entered the scope of Xintian Village.
Xin Hao led Chen Huixian all the way to the top of the hillside. He pointed Chen Huixian at the entrance of the village and said, "Look, look at it yourself. If you don't say you are not your demon, how could these corpse ghosts find this place?"
Chen Huixian looked at the distant sky, and the boundless death aura enveloped the world, which was like two sides of the world he was in now.
But this world that originally exists on both sides is connected to one another.
"It's really a pity to merge with the two realms of Yin and Yang."
When Chen Huixian saw this scene with his own eyes, he still kept holding back his blood.
Even in Zhufan Realm, demons and monsters were not as exaggerated as this world. After all, humans are still the subject.
Immediately, Chen Huixian looked outside the village, and was shaking towards them like a zombie ghost. Chen Huixian's eyes hopped.
"It is definitely not accidental to attract these ghouls when they were born."
Chen Huixian knew that he would have visions when he was born, but it would not be much stronger than an ordinary baby. In addition, he tried his best to cover up these visions, and the leaked breath became even weaker.
This situation now only means that the master is nearby.
"The other party came for me. Since this is the case, I cannot implicate my closest relatives in my life."
Chen Huixian realized that it was not suitable for staying here for a long time, but he was still a baby, and he used his mind a little less.
"You must not abandon the three souls and seven spirits unless you have to. Then the only one who can be counted on now is Xin Hao."
Chen Huixian's mind changed rapidly.
Because Xin Hao did not look at him, he did not hesitate to consume a lot of mental power and sent a message to Xin Hao, saying, "I don't have much power. I can only say that these corpses came to me, but I am not a demon, otherwise I would not let you carry me away. If you believe me, take me to the northwest, where is the vitality."
After saying that, Chen Huixian immediately closed his eyes and began to recover his mind.
Xin Hao was stunned. When Chen Huixian was reminded, he also realized his behavior of taking Chen Huixian away just now, and Chen Huixian kept seeing it.
Chapter completed!
