The entire Yongxi Prefecture was shrouded in an extremely noisy sound. The sound was painful, and it caused the people to wail as if to vent their anger.
Before corpses litter the fields, mourning has already filled the streets.
All this noise can't affect only one person, Qian Xiu. No matter how unsettling the sounds outside were, he remained calm and composed. The lamp oil was poured into every ever-burning lamp, making the worship hall so peaceful and quiet that it seemed like it was a different world from the outside.
Although his five senses were obviously closed, Qian Xiu seemed to notice something. Then the lips tightly bound by the runes seemed to be raised high, pulling his entire face into a ferocious state.
The Seal of Safety is the ultimate means used by all safety departments in the world to restrain felons. A long time ago, when Qian Xiu almost took over the position of being in charge, he naturally knew how to perform the magic. But at that time, Qian Xiu was very disdainful of this. Since he was a repeat offender, he should be killed as soon as possible to avoid disaster.
Like now.
With Qian Xiu as the center, a gust of wind suddenly arose in the worship hall, a whirlwind, almost exactly like a leak from the sky outside his invisible formation. This whirlwind burned the talisman that sealed Qian Xiu's mouth and nose. And this is just the beginning.
Although Qian Xiu had lost his sense of touch, he still accurately took out a fragment of the saint's clothing from his arms. If you look closely, you will find that the cyclone originated from this piece of clothing.
Qian Xiu bit the tip of his tongue. Since he couldn't feel it, Qian Xiu bit down extra hard to avoid missing. Based on his imagination, he dripped blood onto the piece of clothing, and the whirlwind became stronger. The ever-burning lamp seemed to be angry, and the flame became extremely long, and was swept away by this strange wind. The fire burned around the memorial tablets and window curtains.
The worship hall was engulfed in flames. At the same time, the talisman in front of Qian Xiu also burned and turned into ashes.
Qian Xiu's expression looked like he was going crazy. He dug out his own eyes and smeared the blood from his fingertips on the saint's remnants of clothing.
The worship hall in the fire seemed to become extremely fragile and suddenly collapsed. If Qian Xiu still had eyes, and if others could separate their thoughts from the interference of the almost painful sound, they would find that it was not just the worship hall that collapsed, but the eternal temple known as the last line of defense for mankind. Xizhou Security Department!
"Not even close..." Qian Xiu's voice was slurred because there was blood in his mouth. But this is not important to Qian Xiu. He has the power in his hands. He has not been able to take medicine these days, and his cultivation has been greatly damaged, but he can still do some things.
With just one palm, he shattered his Dantian and his heart.
So the last talisman also turned into ashes. Qian Xiu fell to the ground, was swallowed up by the inexplicable whirlwind, and disappeared. This evil wind is getting stronger and higher, echoing the sky leakage pressing in front of the city gate of Yongxi Prefecture. There was a sound of something breaking in the sky above the entire Yongxi Prefecture.
However, at this moment, at the city gate, a sky-reaching light pillar suddenly pulled up, supporting the sky that was about to shatter in Yongxi Prefecture. That beam of light was not thick. Compared with the sky leak, it could be said to be the difference between a willow branch and a giant tree trunk. It was teetering on the edge of collapse, but in the end it stood there tenaciously, fighting against the monstrous whirlwind in the city. It wasn't until the whirlwind dissipated that the light pillar suddenly became silent.
It delayed the flaw in Yongxizhou's formation that Qian Xiu fought for with his life.
The price is another person's life.
…
The sky leakage is still oppressing Yongxi Prefecture, but its lethality does not seem to be lasting enough. Taoist priest Ran Yi's decision was timely - maybe if he had been a little bit later, the city defense formation would have been instantly crushed by a storm like a leak from the sky.
But fortunately, this burst of sky leakage is not so destructive yet, and it still follows the law of one burst of strength and then three times of exhaustion. After a while, its lethality was reduced by half. Although there is still an uncomfortable hissing sound, it no longer causes anxiety and headache.
Although such a storm will still wear down the city defense formation, it will no longer be such a powerful threat - if it doesn't happen again in a short time.
The strange ghost that existed as if it were a pilgrim seemed to be a little surprised by this result. It raised about half of its head and used an unknown part to "look" at the tower.
Almost everyone subconsciously took a step back. Song Yu ran especially fast, but when he took two steps down, he found that Jie Nanshi was still standing there. Wearing a Taoist robe, which was shaken by the wind, he looked like a banished immortal who could emerge at any time.
"Do you really want to be the leader of mankind?" Song Yu knew that Xie Nanshi wanted to help the world, but the uneasiness in his heart overwhelmed his recognition of Xie Nanshi's strong principles, and he felt a little worried for a while. I was so angry that I had to pull him away.
After this touch, Song Yu discovered that Xie Nanshi's hand was stiff and cold.
He couldn't help but look at Xie Nanshi's face, but saw that Nanshi was staring at the strange ghost, his expression full of anger and confusion. Before Song Yu could think about it, he felt a cold aura enveloped his body.
"Damn!" Song Yu cursed and hid quickly. But it is no longer useful. There is an extra "???" icon on the status bar, and even the description is a string of question marks.
Dispelling medicine, small wooden fish... Song Yu immediately tried all the methods he could. This weird state lingers like maggots attached to the bones. At this time, Xie Nanshi finally came to his senses and led Song Yu back to the rear with his backhand, his expression gloomy and a little confused.
"What's wrong?" Song Yu quickly checked and found that Jie Nanshi did not have this strange abnormality.
Emotions, a White Walker who is so awesome that he is capable of attacking a city, also likes to pick weaklings?
Song Yu almost laughed angrily, but the uneasiness in his heart became more intense.
Jie Nanshi seemed to have just come to his senses. His left hand, which was hidden in his sleeve and clenched into a fist, quietly let go. Where no one noticed, a little bit of blood fell down between his fingers. He looked at Song Yu and shook his head: "I was just wondering if it was the mother body."
In the eyes of everyone's doubts, Xie Nanshi explained Song Dynasty's definition of the Zerg and the mother body in a concise and comprehensive manner. Everyone suddenly realized that they looked at Song Yu with a layer of admiration. He was able to figure out all the plans before the war started. This young master... this young gentleman is really amazing. It's a pity that I can't practice since I don't have the bones.
At this time, the black clouds covering the city seemed to have dispersed. Zhou Qinian risked his life and took a quick look, only to find that the strange ghost had disappeared. While breathing a sigh of relief, he said to the young Taoist: "In that case, I, the Department of Safety..."
There is always someone who needs to go out to clean up the battlefield, and even more importantly, they need to find the White Walker who is the "Insect Mother" and get rid of them completely!
"You can't do it." Xie Nanshi paused and added: "Just support me."
Zhou Qinian had already seen the strength of this Taoist, so naturally he would not be offended. He nodded and said, "I will lead the team myself."
Du Anchen suddenly said: "I'll clear the way for you."
Xie Nanshi looked at her for a while and nodded. Although the origin of this woman is a mystery, there is nothing to say about her skills.
After Du Anchen only said this sentence, she said no more and stood quietly holding her heavy sword. I can't figure out what she is thinking.
Song Yu was surprised. He stood next to Jie Nanshi and said directly: "I'll go with you."
Xie Nanshi frowned slightly, but when he spoke, he considered Song Yu's ability to accept it, but he didn't think too much: "What's the use of you going?"
Of course I'm going to join in the fun... It's a pity that the words can't be said so directly. Song Yu can only turn his finger to the top of his head: "Look at my state, do you see the pile of question marks?"
Jie Nanshi didn't understand this sentence at all, but he still looked at Song Yu seriously for a while, and then asked tentatively after a while: "...Are you trying to make me relax? Thank you, but now is not the time."
Is he that unreliable? Song Yu couldn't laugh or cry: "I mean, I was targeted by that thing. Although I don't know why, in short, I need to get close contact and observe that thing."
Xie Nanshi did not agree or refuse immediately. Instead, he held Song Yu's wrist, and a gentle spiritual energy penetrated into Song Yu's body almost forcefully. He didn't let go until he was sure that there was nothing abnormal about Song Yu's body and that he had not been branded by the White Walkers.
But even if no abnormality was detected, he did not doubt Song Yu's words. He just reminded: "This trip is dangerous, and I may not be able to protect you."
"I know it's not safe outside the city." Song Yu glanced at the status bar filled with question marks again, and helplessly spread his hands: "But with such a bomb, I may not even be able to sleep well."
This is lying. No matter when in "Meeting the Gods", Song Yu slept very well. Mainly, when it's time to sleep, as long as he lies on the bed, he can trigger the option to choose whether to sleep. Choose Yes, and you will have a dreamless, baby-like night.
Song Yu even thought that the planning team put such a private thing in the game because of his liver project, staying up late, and being unable to sleep all day long.
However, these Jie Nanshi are not clear.
Xie Nanshi had no doubt that he was there. Although he still hesitated, he finally no longer refused.
Song Yu breathed a sigh of relief. As a player, how could he hide behind the scenes with such a major plot? And... among these people, he is probably the only one who will not really die even if he dies.
So he must go out and bring everyone back.
…
The soldiers were very quick, and the beheading operation was scheduled for sunrise the next day. But this does not mean that today's Yongxi Prefecture can sit back and recuperate. On the contrary, now is the time when manpower is needed most. A considerable number of elite soldiers from the Department of Security and City Guards were sent out to search for the missing "matrix" today.
They were unable to find a specific place, but after delimiting all the areas, the most likely hiding place remained - the temple at the foot of Yuanao Mountain.
There were many strange ghosts and beasts there out of thin air, and the exploration team did not dare to step forward.
