The wind and snow continued all night, and gradually became lighter, as if they were covered with salt grains.
Jing Hexuan took Zhang Xing to Jincheng for ventilation. Before leaving, he left Li Yue and Lin Yan behind and told Shi Lingyao to take these two with him no matter where he went.
Shi Lingyao did not give in and took Lin Yan and Li Yue to Mocheng.
When Guan Boyang saw Lin Yan and Li Yue, he turned around to leave. Lin Yan chased him, and the two started fighting again.
But Lin Yan didn't dare to hit him with a fireball. If the building was damaged, it would be Dr. Shi who would beat him instead of him.
Guan Boyang did not dare to destroy the building, so the two of them had to use their fists and feet, and every move was "bang bang bang".
Shi Lingyao glanced at the two people sadly and entered the room expressionlessly.
Zhang Yuanyi quickly invited her into the house and poured her red branch tea diligently: "It's snowing and the road is slippery. Why did you come in person?"
She waved her hand: "Something happened."
Then he drank tea slowly with a cup in hand, his eyes falling on the two people outside who were beating like wild dogs.
Zhang Yuanyi coughed and sat down to drink tea together.
Li Yue looked at the two people outside and rolled his eyes speechlessly.
After almost a stick of incense, Shi Lingyao finished drinking the tea and put down the cup.
The two people were jumping on the roof outside. You punched me and I kicked them fiercely.
At this moment, Shi Lingyao's figure flashed and appeared between the two fighting men, one with a kick.
"Bump--"
The two men were kicked down one after the other like sandbags. They hit the door with two solid and muffled sounds. The snow flew and made two human-shaped shallow pits.
"puff!"
The two's standard dog chewed mud fell on the open doorway of the study.
Zhang Yuanyi slowly put the lid on the tea cup and blew the air in front of him: "Tsk, tsk, the dust is flying."
Guan Boyang cursed and got up: "Play your mother's loudspeaker! Where did the dust come from in this weather?! I, he -"
Lin Yan got up quickly, took the opportunity to step over Guan Boyang's back, rushed into the room and stood behind Shi Lingyao.
Guan Boyang got up and was stepped back into the snow by Lin Yan. He got up angrily and wanted to beat someone up. When he met Shi Lingyao's cold gaze, he immediately gave up.
Both of them calmed down, and then she told everyone what happened in Taoyuan City.
Zhang Yuanyi was indeed a classmate who was praised and affirmed by Qu Bai, and he reacted almost immediately.
His thoughts were the same as Shi Lingyao's. They both felt that someone must have done it deliberately, and that person must be the one who took her third red branch.
Everyone has reached a consensus on this point.
Zhang Yuanyi brought up something strange again.
He had never seen the two humans in Ningcheng who had eaten red branches, he had only heard about them.
Comparing the two cars, I feel that although the two are very similar, there are still subtle differences.
Shi Lingyao put it bluntly: "That zombie monster is uncontrollable, irrational, and not subject to my pressure or coercion. But this time, the group of zombies, aside from other things, quickly retreated after discovering the incoming person. "
Zhang Yuanyi nodded: "It has very training qualities."
Shi Lingyao: "So we infer that these zombie monsters are controlled."
Zhang Yuanyi asked: "One more thing is strange, why do those monsters eat our people? Is there any precedent of zombies eating zombies before?"
Shi Lingyao shook his head.
Li Yue suddenly said: "The biggest difference between zombies and zombies is the presence or absence of mysterious crystals. This is very important. So, can we understand that zombies are actually closer to human characteristics?"
Shi Lingyao turned to look at him, as if inspired by something, and pondered for a moment: "Then let's ask from another angle, what is the difference between corpses and humans?"
Li Yue thought for a while: "At least from my outsider's perspective, there is no difference on the surface. All I can see is that zombies will not bite corpses."
Shi Lingyao nodded: "Now that the Xuan Jing is eliminated, we are more like humans carrying zombie toxins."
Lin Yan was shocked when he heard this: "So if you bite me, Doctor Shi, will I still turn into a zombie?"
Shi Lingyao glanced at him sideways: "Then you come and give it a try?"
Lin Yan didn't care, and was even a little proud: "Then I was transformed into a zombie before the boss! The boss must be jealous of me!"
Li Yue sneered: "I don't know if I'm jealous or not, but you must be the first to be beaten to death by the boss."
Lin Yan felt a chill on his back and stood up straight subconsciously. He laughed dryly: "Well, let's forget it. The boss must be the first to do such an honorable thing."
Zhang Yuanyi said coldly: "Why not lure the snake out of its hole?"
Shi Lingyuan turned his head: "I would like to hear the details."
Zhang Yuanyi touched his goatee and said slowly: "Now the whole city is under martial law. Everyone goes in and out in groups. It is difficult for the other party to have a chance to attack again."
Shi Lingyao nodded, that was indeed the case.
Just listen to Zhang Yuanyi say: "But the other party is definitely monitoring us closely. We can pretend that there are mistakes and give them an opportunity."
"According to what you said, City Lord, the other party's character should be very proud, and he feels confident about his actions."
"If a person with this kind of personality sees something wrong with us, can he resist taking action?"
His analysis was exactly what she had guessed about the man behind it yesterday.
"There are few people here, so there is no guarantee that they won't attack you. Do you want to come to Taoyuan City first to take shelter?"
Zhang Yuanyi smiled and bowed: "City Lord, please take the trouble. Although this Mo City is in tatters, it is my home after all."
Guan Boyang loudly expressed his disdain: "He is just a kid who hides his head but hides his tail! Look at Master Guan beating him to pieces!"
Zhang Yuan nodded: "Exactly, Mr. Guan is in charge of Mocheng. Don't worry, we all trust Mr. Guan."
Guan Boyang felt very good after hearing this, and nodded repeatedly: "If you have the vision! Just leave it to me!"
Shi Lingyuan looked at Zhang Yuanyi. The two looked at each other and understood each other tacitly.
It can only be said that Zhang Yuanyi is really well-trained. He usually quarrels with each other, but he is still very reliable at critical moments.
That night, the two groups of people met with exactly the same information and unanimously proposed to lure the snake out of its hole.
Next, residents of Taoyuan City unanimously ensured that they stay in groups of 10 when going out and never leave alone.
The doors of Mocheng and Jincheng were closed tightly, with no residents entering or exiting at all.
Shi Lingyao and Jing Hexuan soldiers were divided into two groups, taking turns to strengthen the defenses in the two annexed cities and train city patrol guards. They were on duty on the city walls day and night, and not a single fly could fly in.
On the contrary, Taoyuan City probably relied on its thick walls and large number of residents. Except for those who went out to be extremely vigilant, no one was in charge.
A month passed without incident.
beginning of summer.
A blizzard swept across the sky and the earth, and everything was vast as far as the eye could see, and nothing could be heard except the sharp whistling.
The weather is so bad.
This snowstorm has lasted for seven days!
The wind and snow showed no signs of abating.
Residents have been huddled at home for several days. Although there are still red branches to feed themselves, two groups of people still decided to go out and try their luck.
Probably because the previous attacks left too great a shadow on people, the two teams that went out this time chose to go north and east.
In the north, Wen Changjun led the team.
A group of people were wrapped up tightly. Hats made of mutated bear skin covered their heads, ears and lower half of their faces. Only their eyes were left outside, narrowed by the strong wind and snow.
Someone shouted: "Gangzi... is up!"
"What?!"
"and……"
"What?!"
The man crossed his arms vigorously and pointed behind him.
Someone went to pull Wen Changjun at the front.
He looked back.
There was a vast expanse of white behind him, and a few people were looming.
He quickly scanned everyone and found two missing.
