Black Moonlight, after her robbery

The northern area is surrounded by high mountains and the terrain is rugged, so when Ti Zhen and his party arrived quickly, it was already seven days later.

Because it has been rainy in August, many places are filled with fog. Before entering Jinyang City, people feel tight in their chests and have a strong sense of threat. It must be a ghost place full of demons dancing around.

Nianying looked at the desolate scenery and muttered: "It's really a poor place. We have been wandering in the suburbs for so long, and there is not even a single family. Although the northern territory is vast and sparsely populated, it is still too desolate."

He turned around and appointed someone, "You take a bunch of people into the city to explore the way."

Ti Zhen looked at the sun behind him, which was approaching the western mountains, and still felt something was wrong. "It's almost dark and it's not appropriate to move. Let's go to the city together during the day tomorrow. The night fog is getting heavy right now, so it's better to find a place to rest."

The green forest was covered with gauze and there was a heavy fog. You couldn't even hear the crowing of cocks and the barking of dogs. If someone took advantage of the night fog to sneak into their midst, they probably wouldn't even know how they died.

Nian Ying nodded as soon as he thought about it, "That's fine."

Everyone couldn't help but gather together and walked along the path for a while. The closer they got to the city, the thicker the fog became, and it was almost impossible to see beyond ten steps.

At this time, he kicked something with the sole of his foot. He lowered his head to look, but could not identify what it was. He leaned down and squinted to see. It was a severed arm that crashed into his sight.

Like a child's arm, the sleeves are embroidered with the words "Awakening Lions and Tapping Spring". If you look closely, you can see that the fabric is covered with a light layer of gray, giving it a choking smell.

Nianying rubbed it with his fingers and sniffed his nose, "Saltpeter..."

He raised his head in panic, "Auntie, that's not right! Everything here is wrong! This is not fog, it is the white smoke that floated up after the explosion. Look, there are traces of the saltpeter explosion on the severed arm!"

"Saltpeter?" Ti Zhen also sniffed and sniffed again.

Not to mention that there is an earthy smell after the rain. Many farmers in the suburbs burn straw. Various smells are mixed together. If you don't smell carefully, you can't tell what other smells are there.

Now that I think about it more carefully, it seems that since they entered the suburbs of Jinyang City, they have not seen a single house with a light on, and now it is in ruins, unless...

Unless Jinyang City has fallen.

Nianying looked at her deeply, "Auntie, I'm afraid we don't have to go to Jinyang City anymore. While the night is still dark, let's go to the nearby city for help as soon as possible."

Suddenly, a thin black shadow ran quickly from behind the tree on the opposite side.

It's too fast, unlike the speed that ordinary people can achieve.

Ti Zhen warned: "I'm afraid we are being targeted. Be careful and be on guard."

Someone in the team asked, "Did you hear that voice?"

Nian Ying said, "What?"

"It jingles like... a bell!"

Yes, in that short moment just now, in addition to the rapid footsteps, there was another strange sound. It's very subtle, but I can't tell where the sound is coming from, let alone what makes the bell sound.

At this moment, there was another sound of footsteps in the mist ahead.

"Here we go again!!"

"Everyone hide in the woods first, don't move around, and don't draw your swords."

In this dark and foggy environment, a hasty fight may not hurt the enemy at all, but it is very likely to accidentally hurt one's own side.

Listening carefully, you can see that the footsteps are very heavy and clumsy, but after this heavy sound, there are countless sparse footsteps chasing briskly.

Suddenly, a embarrassed figure broke out of the white mist and ran over.

Behind him was a group of Xiangguo soldiers. They were slender and agile, and they caught up with him in a short while. The man was wounded and fought, but he still had a good sword and was not at a disadvantage.

Nian Ying couldn't help but cheer, "What a handsome kung fu." Then he looked at Ti Zhen, "Aunt, this person, let's..."

It's hard to beat the four punches with both hands. Although the skill is high, the damage is too serious. It is obvious that after more than ten moves, it will be difficult to withstand. But seeing that the man was being hunted by Xiangguo soldiers in the city, he must have understood the situation in the city.

She nodded, "If this person is saved, maybe he will still be one of our own."

He looked up at the terrain and saw that there were depressions in two places, so he commanded, "In a moment, you will disperse from the left and right to the depressions behind them, wait for my arrow whistle, and as soon as I release the arrow, you will charge."

According to this arrangement, when the man was surrounded due to lack of physical strength, Ti Zhen fired a red arrow. The incident happened suddenly and the fog was blurry. The Xiangguo soldiers could not distinguish the direction at all. Instead, the red arrow Attention, Nianying easily captured the information and led people to rush forward. In an instant, the sound of swords, guns and swords could be heard, and there was an endless dispute.

Not long after, those Xiangguo soldiers were all dead, and Nian Ying hurriedly brought over the survivors who were being hunted.

"aunt!"

The man was still very guarded, "Aunt? Who are you! You..."

"Of course we are not with them, otherwise we wouldn't have saved you." Ti Zhen took a quick look around and said, "It's not convenient to talk here. Let's find a place to stay as soon as possible." Someone said: "But, everything is outside. In such a mess, what should I do if there are still some unknown things hidden in the house?"

"What can we do? It's better than being exposed in the world and being plotted by others. You can't tell where the danger is. Even if you want to run away, you have to do it in the middle of the night and in the dead of night."

Ti Zhen has been to many strange places with caravans, and her analysis is very credible. No one could think of any other reason, so they had no choice but to act as they were told.

It's just that you can't go to the houses on the path, so you have to go into the woods, which is safer and more reliable.

After walking for a while, I found a house made of mud and tiles. It was square and looked very strange. But this was their only gain after walking for so long.

Nian Ying knocked on the door out of instinctive habit, and the man they rescued immediately said: "There is no need to knock, not to mention that the people in Jinyang City have already run away, even in the past, this room would not Someone."

"This is Yizhuang. To put it more clearly, it's the house where the corpse is parked."

A group of people kept muttering in their hearts, but when it comes to this job, they can only die as a living doctor. They have no choice but to go in.

After bolting the door tightly, Ti Zhen asked Nian Ying to get the golden sore medicine to apply on the man. After applying it, he asked: "Just now you said that the people in Jinyang City have fled for their lives, then why are you still here? Are you still here?" Are those people chasing you?"

He raised his head, his voice trembling slightly, "Jinyang City is broken, but not everyone will leave. I don't have any skills, I only have good kung fu, and I can be with some like-minded brothers... In the end, for Jinyang What should Yangcheng do?"

When he said this, everyone felt sad and angry, and in the end they could only clenched their fists to no avail.

Ti Zhen continued: "What about your other brothers in the rebel army?"

"They're all dead, and I'm the only one left."

She asked: "Is there anyone alive in the city now?"

"No more... there won't be any. They won't even let go of babies about to be born, old people in their twilight years, and weak women. What else will be left?"

He subconsciously rubbed his face, "But if you think about it a little, we won't refuse to leave. We might as well risk our lives and kill a few more Xiangguo people to worship them."

Momo raised his head and glanced around, "I heard that you people are not locals. I advise you to leave before dawn, otherwise you will not be able to escape when their army arrives. Especially women and children, this is not the place for you to stay. .”

Hearing him looking down on him like this, Nian Ying's blood surged and he said, "Who is this kid! I'm sixteen and still a kid! Don't forget, I saved you!"

As soon as he finished speaking, a crisp ringing sound suddenly sounded. This time, it was clearer than ever.

The sound came from a window, separated by a wall, and the expressions of all the soldiers in the room changed. This sound had been bothering them since their nightfall, and in such a desolate place, it was hard not to think of something dirty.

Ti Zhen was always brave, and she wanted to poke her eyes at the window paper. Nian Ying pinched her shoulders and stopped her. He lowered his head half way and looked outside along the gap. But as soon as he took a look, he loudly said, "Ah "With a sound, he fell down.

In an instant, everyone raised their hair in unison, and their hair stood on end: "What's wrong? What's wrong?"

Nianying hesitated, "This... that... um..."

I don’t know who said something, “A child or a child started shouting without even seeing it clearly. If General Kong finds out, he will start laughing again.”

"You're still laughing at me! Go take a look if you can!"

The soldier said: "Just take a look, is it possible that you are still a ghost?"

After saying that, he leaned forward and was caught off guard by looking directly into the thing's eyes. In an instant, he felt as if his entire scalp had been blown off!

He pulled out the waist knife with a "clop" sound, "I'll strangle him! What a female ghost! She's still a faceless female ghost!"

"What nonsense are you talking about!" Ti Zhen scolded: "Where are there so many ghosts? If ghosts can really cause trouble, why don't they bring back the lost city to scare you?"

She turned over to take a look, and her heart palpitated. When she looked carefully, she saw that it was indeed a girl's face that was mangled with blood and flesh. But obviously this girl is not a ghost. The shadow is still stepping on her feet. If you look carefully at the traces of the wound, it should be burns. Moreover, this girl is only thirteen or fourteen years old.

Looking more closely, the girl seems to have something tied around her waist, like a waist tag or something.

Ti Zhen stood in front of the window and asked, "Girl, why are you following us all the way?"

The girl opened her eyes wide after hearing this, stamped her feet anxiously, and made various gestures, as if she wanted to tell them something.

Nian Ying calmed down and asked curiously: "She...can't she speak?"

Hearing this, the girl paused and opened her mouth to them.

There was nothing in the mouth, and blood was oozing out. The tongue was actually pulled out by the roots.

Even Ti Zhen had goosebumps all over his body when he saw her frantically pulling off her waistband to show her - the Warlord's Order!

Ti Zhen suddenly realized it and quickly opened the door, "You are the guard Chen Duwei of Jinyang City!!!"
