Just two days after the zombie wave passed, Taoyuan City welcomed another uninvited guest.
He Xixu, who had escaped early, actually came back.
This time he did not bring the thousand elite soldiers with him. Seeing that he no longer looked like a beast, you knew that he had suffered a lot.
This time, they only brought two mutated ox carts and five elite soldiers. They stood outside the city and started calling people.
At this time, Shi Lingyao applied for my mother's permission to use his own blood to produce a batch of red branches, intending to supply them to Jincheng and Mocheng later.
There may be few humans seeking medical treatment in a short period of time, so the bulk of her money is still from the zombies.
Only if she is strong enough, will the zombies be strong at the same time.
The danger outside was like a sharp knife, with the sharp blade always hanging above her head, forcing her to eagerly become stronger as soon as possible.
Because she is not just herself. Behind her, there are her family and friends, as well as hundreds of people, and there will be more in the future.
During her battle with the Titans two days ago, she forced herself to spend money to improve her abilities. The effect was not only obvious to herself, but the abilities of the corpses also increased simultaneously!
And their expressions were just like hers, no different from humans. At the same time, they were no longer shackled by advanced evolved zombies.
On this point, she caught a Kuiba for experiment yesterday and found that everyone was not controlled or coerced by it at all. She guessed that even the corpse king level could not suppress and control the corpse people.
I can verify it when I have the opportunity in the future.
This is good news.
Shi Lingyao, who was busy with business, was too lazy to pay attention to him and sent Jing Hexuan out to drive away this annoying spirit.
On the outer city wall, Jing Hexuan stood condescendingly, looking down at the group of people at the foot of the city wall.
He Xixu was very unhappy with this perspective. He raised his head and felt that his neck was about to break. He said angrily: "You have to stand so high?"
Jing Hexuan's face was expressionless: "Is this how you talk to the emperor?"
He Xixu: "..."
The five soldiers behind him looked at each other, and almost immediately knelt down on one knee and shouted in unison: "See your majesty!"
He Xixu's face turned dark, but he still reluctantly knelt down on one knee and bowed meaningfully. He almost touched the ground and there was no snow on his hem.
Jing Hexuan's figure disappeared from the top of the city wall and appeared on the small city gate, sitting leisurely on the wall as if he was sitting on the dragon chair in his court.
He Xixu frowned: "Are you really going to give up everything you've got?"
Jing Hexuan said expressionlessly: "Yes."
He Xixu's face was full of disbelief: "Including your throne, all the power you have in the court is unmatched by anyone and is more than ten thousand people. Are you willing to give up these things?"
Jing Hexuan chuckled and said casually: "These things are worthless to me."
He Xixu snorted coldly: "You just stay in this little Taoyuan City and seize power when I get back. If I become the emperor, I will be the first to cause trouble for you!"
Jing Hexuan was not afraid at all, his expression did not change: "Come and give it a try."
He Xixu glanced at the huge city wall behind him and remained strangely silent for a moment.
Indeed, as far as this city wall is concerned, if their existing siege engines are not improved, they may not be effective.
The reason why He Xixu would have such a temptation was because the current situation in the court was complicated.
Jing Hexuan is not only the emperor of Daxuan, but also the core of the imperial power-oriented faction in the imperial capital. This group of people advocates absolute imperial power and obeys the emperor's orders 100%.
In addition, the three generals, including He Xixu, also have their own supporters in the court. They believe that armed force determines status. In this kind of natural disaster apocalypse, only strong power can better stabilize the situation. own status.
The three generals and Jing Hexuan's imperial power faction always have a sense of incomprehensible rivalry. Although they don't blatantly resist the decree, they can stay apart if they can.
In fact, the leader among them all is He Xixu, this rebellious old enemy.
After all, he and Jing Hexuan had been at odds since childhood. Even if his old enemy became the emperor, the fear in his heart would be weaker than others.
Speaking of which, the reason why he could recognize the emperor Jing Hexuan was very complicated.
Of course, the biggest reason was that he really couldn't beat Jing Hexuan.
Also, the old emperor was in a coma and saw the imperial court falling apart. The whole Daxuan was plunged into chaos due to the zombie transformation across the country, and everyone was in danger.
At this time, Jing Hexuan stood up and took over the mess. Although he was surprised, he was still a little impressed. After all, this job was really difficult to do.
In a sense, they were the same person. He admired all Jing Hexuan's decisions and methods during his political tenure.
Cruel enough.
He knew that what the world needed right now was a monarch who could act vigorously and resolutely and be able to suppress all monsters and monsters.
But now, Jing Hexuan made it clear that he would not go back to be the emperor.
Jing Hexuan looked at He Xixu's thoughtful expression: "As a word of advice, assisting Mr. Yuan in researching the zombie antidote is the most important thing."
He Xixu subconsciously wanted to confront him: "Why don't you go?"
Jing Hexuan: "It's none of your business."
He Xixu: "???"
Originally, He Xixu felt that since Shi Lingyao was so powerful, he could win over him and develop Taoyuan City into the fifth new city of the imperial court.
I just mentioned it casually when trying to persuade Mr. Yuan, but then the more I thought about it, the more feasible it became, so I turned back.
Who would have thought that they wouldn't see him at all, and the rejection was literally stamped on his face.
He Xixu laughed angrily: "Okay."
In my heart: Just wait and watch me regain my strength and fuck you again.
How could Jing Hexuan not understand the plan in his old enemy's expression? This boy clearly had a back-up plan.
It's just that he doesn't care.
His grandfather passed away as early as the beginning of the plague because he was old and could not support himself. Later, his parents were infected when the zombies started to become rampant and committed suicide before the transformation.
It can be said that he is completely helpless in this world, and only Shi Lingyao is the strongest support in his heart.
There was no hesitation for him to give up everything, including his human identity and emperor's status, and stay in Taoyuan City.
He actually had a chat with Shi Lingyao once.
About his identity.
If he stays in Taoyuan City like this, it will definitely shock everyone in the imperial capital. People will definitely be sent to find out, and it is very likely that waves of people will come.
There will definitely be constant annoyance.
The secrets of their corpses may not be kept secret for long.
So he still had the intention of shrinking back at first. If his arrival brought her endless trouble, he was still willing to protect her in another way from a distance in the imperial capital.
After hearing his concerns, Shi Lingyao just asked, "Don't you want to stay in Taoyuan City?"
Jing Hexuan smiled bitterly: "I think so, even in my dreams, but..."
"Then stay."
Shi Lingyao interrupted forcefully, with a nonchalant attitude.
"Taoyuan City is your home."
"As for those people, just come."
Her confident and flamboyant look was like a bright and hot light, burning into his heart.
He liked the way she protected him so blatantly.
The two men broke up their conversation, and He Xixu returned with his soldiers defeated.
After firmly stating his position, Jing Hexuan felt relaxed and thought about trying to please his sweetheart.
He walked briskly to the medical center, and as soon as he stepped through the door, he saw Xu Qing sitting in the hall, looking at him expressionlessly.
It's over, I forgot to report it to my future mother-in-law.
"Mom, I've done everything here..."
Shi Lingyao pushed in through the small door in the backyard and paused when he saw the expressions of the two people in the lobby.
Then he turned around and walked back without changing his expression: "Oh, I forgot to clean up the flower bed. I'll clean it up again."
A vivid interpretation of what "escape" means.
Shi Lingyao whispered in his ears: "I'm sorry, good brother, just hold on, you won't hit me after I'm beaten."
Jing Hexuan: "..." Just now he was so moved that he was being protected! This Xiaoni is too much!
