"What?!"
Bai Duo was shocked. The reason why Dongshan Village was infected with the plague was because corpse beasts hurt people, so they spread the virus to people through wounds in disguise.
So why was Fenyin City attacked by the plague?
Could it be because of those corpses that broke out of the seal? Although the mountain forest was covered by a large formation, there were still a few fish that slipped through the net.
"Now we have gathered all the infected people in the outer city. The inner city has not yet fallen, but people are living in fear all day long.
After all, just an inner wall couldn't stop the spread of the plague. "
The heavy bronze city gate slowly opened, the sound of chains and gears working was rattling, and a breath of death rushed towards the face.
Bai Duo looked along the open city gate. Both sides of the street were lined with dead bodies, and every house had white silk hangings.
Occasionally, there are people wandering on the street who look pale and walk unsteadily. They don't know when they will fall down and never get up again.
There is panic and uneasiness in the air.
"It's really a hell on earth. I didn't expect that Fenyin City would undergo such a huge change less than half a month after I left." Bai Duo frowned. Compared with so many people dying, he was more worried about the transformation of corpses, so he reminded "Lin Sir, if these corpses are not disposed of in time, we may be in big trouble."
The cold wind carrying the stench rolled up a corner of the shroud, revealing the corpse inside, which was already rotten and covered with insect eyes.
White maggots were squirming inside, and with every movement, yellow-brown pus gushed out from the eyes.
Seems very disgusting.
"Of course I know. I have tried burning corpses before, but the thick smoke from the corpses will also become a vector for the spread of the plague." Lin Qianye sighed. There have been no less than twenty fake corpses that have died in his hands in the past few days. Tools, every time these giant temples are destroyed, countless white flesh worms will burst out from the corpses.
"Where is Taoist Cui? What do they say?" Bai Duo asked.
"He doesn't have any good way to suppress the plague. This kind of thing is beyond human control. It is spread by corpses, airborne, and waterborne. These are all inevitable.
Henglian masters like you and me naturally don't worry about viruses entering our bodies, but ordinary warriors and the general public are not so lucky. "
Hearing what Lin Qianye said, Bai Duo looked up at the outer city wall. There were only a few people on it, and most of them had obviously been removed.
Either they were guarding the inner city or they were camping outside the city.
Anyway, judging from the current environment in the outer city, ordinary people really can't stand it.
"So the reason why Fenyin City was contaminated by the plague is probably because it was spread through water sources?" Bai Duo remembered that there was a large river that connected the large and small tributaries in Fenyin.
The polluted water source in Dongshan Village was diverted to the mainstream, and then distributed to Fenyin.
"That's pretty much the reason, but don't worry too much. The city guard has already asked the Hedong Pei family for support.
Have you seen the great formation that seals off the mountains and forests? "
"I've seen it before, but I didn't expect it to be Pei's handiwork. So they are also super-mundane forces?"
Bai Duo had heard of this aloof family, which was extremely famous in Hedong County. The head of the family was not only on good terms with the princes of the Central Imperial Court, but was also an important official in the temple.
He is also recognized as the number one master in Hedong, and he even has a son who is known as the enemy of thousands of people.
"I used to have the same opinion as you, thinking that they were nothing more than a family of powerful officials, but through the recent frequent occurrence of strange events, I also got a glimpse of the secrets of these aloof families.
Even Taoist Cui was amazed.
Let me tell you this, the people who went to Fenyin to support this time were not the direct descendants of the Pei family at all, but the affiliated forces under them. "
"Is that so? What about Lord City Guard? Can't even he fight against those corpses?" Bai Duo and Lin Qianye chatted all the way. In addition to Yang Qingze and Goldman Sachs, who were seriously injured, he also mentioned one person frequently.
It was Yao Junsu who was the commander of the Fenyin garrison.
He is recognized as the strongest person in Fenyin. Not only did he refine his body but also absorbed the innate energy. His strength has already broken through Condensation Gang and reached a new level.
"Although Master Yao is strong, he is a pure warrior after all..." Lin Qianye's expression was a little complicated. He continued: "Five days ago, a small group of corpses flowed outside the city, and there was also a corpse among them. Special corpse.
Its strength was not comparable to that of ordinary zombies. Although Master Yao successfully killed it and repelled the zombies, he himself was also injured. "
"Special Shikui? Can you tell me more specifically?" Bai Duo frowned.
"It's a mother-child evil. It not only cannibalized the mother's body in front of the formation, but also hunted other zombies. Its ferocity is far beyond imagination.
Magistrate Yang once fought with the corpse baby and was seriously injured in the end.
Only the city guard Yao came forward to kill him. "
The strange strength grew so fast that it was far beyond the reach of human beings. Both Lin Qianye and Bai Duo felt the heavy pressure.
The two of them walked thoughtfully on the streets of the depressed outer city, and soon arrived at the gate of the inner city. The soldiers guarding the city all wore heavy veils.
The veil has been soaked in herbs developed by Cui Wenzi, which has some effects on resisting plague germs.
That is to say, if Lin Qianye personally escorted Bai Duo into the inner city, it would be impossible for them to let someone under Ning Gang come.
"I will report the news that you are still alive to the senior management in Fenyin City. Will you go to the Sixth Gate with me, or go to the Ju'an Pavilion courtyard first to catch up on the past?"
"I'll go to Ju'an Pavilion to visit my old friend first. I'll go to the Sixth Gate to find you later."
Bai Duo thought about it carefully and decided to go to Cui Wenzi first to ask about the mother and son Sha. Lin Qianye could only give an ambiguous answer to the strange thing.
After talking for so long, I can only come to one conclusion, that is, it is very strong.
Maybe Cui Wenzi can know more information.
"Okay, then I'll go back to the Sixth Gate first."
After watching Lin Qianye leave, Bai Duo walked into Kurong Lane and soon arrived outside Ju'an Pavilion.
The door was not locked, and there was a string of wind chimes hanging on the lintel. He gently opened the half-open door and walked in.
"It's strange. I clearly touched the string of wind chimes when I opened the door. Why didn't they ring?" Bai Duo remained doubtful and vigilant, and continued to walk inside.
The spacious front yard is where he usually practices, and there are mountains of firewood piled in the corner, all of which have been chopped before. At the end of the road is the room reserved for Cui Wenzi.
At this moment, a strong herbal smell came from the room.
Bai Duo stood at the door. There was a boiling cauldron in the room. Xifu was beating the charcoal fire in the stove with an iron hook, hoping to make it burn more vigorously.
"Blessed, I'm back."
Bang.
Xifu's body trembled slightly and he accidentally knocked over the bottles and jars containing soup and medicine next to him. Listening to the familiar voice, she turned around stiffly, only to find someone standing at the door.
The man's figure was taller and stronger than before, and his skin was covered with interlaced scars, like branches with tangled roots.
As Xifu's gaze moved upward, he happened to meet Bai Duo's eyelidless, bulging eyes.
There are only crimson muscles on the cheeks and exposed white teeth.
"Why don't you say anything? Did my appearance scare you?" Bai Duo had lost the covering of facial skin at this moment, so he looked very scary.
As soon as he finished speaking, he noticed a gust of fragrant wind.
Suddenly I felt a warmth in my arms.
Xi Fu couldn't cry or speak, but she still recognized Bai Duo who was completely unrecognizable and gave him a big hug.
