Jianming Chaos

Chapter 312 Dark City

As night fell, Zhiming woke up, and saw that the surroundings were pitch black, and there was no torch.He looked sideways, Zhao Yun was less than ten meters away from him, his head was still drooping, and his breath was getting weaker and weaker.

"Brother Zilong, wake up!" Zhiming called out, but there was no response.

After he yelled several times, Zhao Yun slowly raised his head. Seeing that it was his teammate, he hurriedly reminded: "Zhiming, be careful... Be careful of poisonous gas..."

Zhiming understood that Zhao Yun was also captured after accidentally being poisoned by the bone beast.

When Zhao Yun found out that Zhiming had also been "arrested", he couldn't help being shocked, and said, "So...you were also caught?"

"In a moment of carelessness, I missed a trick." Zhiming regretted that he underestimated the enemy too much, and had a chance to turn the situation around.

"These...are the undead of Rome, they..." Zhao Yun spoke weakly.

"I know, I've already experienced it." Zhiming thought he could easily get rid of the rope, but he didn't expect that the rope had been stuffed, and he couldn't break free without some skill.

"Why didn't they kill us?" Zhao Yun had been tied up for more than a day, and his hands had long since become numb.

Seeing the dead silence all around, Zhiming suddenly understood, and said: "These guys want to lure the enemy and catch us all! It's a pity that no one will come later."

However, he was wrong. Guan Yu was leading an army to come overnight under Liu Bei's instruction.

Zhiming wanted to use his divine power to break free from the rope, but when he suddenly felt a person appearing nearby, he couldn't help raising his vigilance.

"Is there any reinforcements? General Guan Yu? General Zhang Fei?...No!" Zhiming thought for a second, "How could it be possible to travel from Nanjun to Changsha so quickly? Besides, judging by the breath, there are only two people."

Thinking of this, he decided not to save himself first, but to see where the two mysterious guests came from.

Zhao Yun saw something Ni Duan and said, "Do you feel that there are people nearby? I feel it too. I don't know if it's good or evil?"

"There are only two people on the other side, and their purpose is neither to save us nor to kill us, otherwise they would have shot us just now." Zhiming wanted to use the shadow return magic to find out the identities of the two lurkers, but unfortunately he lacked energy.

"How did you know there were only two people?" Zhao Yun was surprised.

"I... just guessed. Why hide from so many people?" Zhiming prevaricated.

"Then what is the purpose of their coming here?" Zhao Yun couldn't think of anyone who would dare to enter this city.

"There is a possibility: they were originally soldiers of Changsha, who were forced to flee after the fall of the city; now they return quietly to see if there are any survivors." Zhiming speculated.

"Then you should come out to help, what kind of hero is hiding in the dark!" Zhao Yun complained, "I, Zhao Zilong, fought in the battlefield all my life and killed countless enemies, but I didn't expect to die at the hands of these undead. !"

"Don't be discouraged, we are not dead yet. It will be easy when I recover my strength." Zhiming was slowly accumulating energy.

Zhao Yun suddenly remembered something and asked, "Zhiming, why did you come here? Uncle Huang sent you here?"

"That's right, Uncle Huang sent me to rescue you." Zhiming responded, scanning the surroundings with his eyes.

"You come by yourself? Didn't Uncle Huang equip you with soldiers?"

"I didn't want to waste my family's life, so I applied to come alone." Zhiming said the reason for being a lonely brave man.

"Aren't you too reckless? Even if you once broke into Baihuzhai alone, you can't underestimate the enemy because of your high martial arts skills! This war can't be won by mere bravery! However, thank you for coming to rescue me. I regret it earlier. I missed the Battle of Chibi, and I never thought that I would fail even to recapture Changsha! Even if I could go back alive, I would have no face to face the lord and the military advisor!" Zhao Yun blamed himself endlessly.

"No, you didn't fail, it's just that Changsha is occupied by these ghosts, and it's hard for humans to fight against it." Zhiming felt that the two people were moving this way, as if they wanted to show their faces, but they were afraid of falling into the enemy's trap.

"You don't have to comfort me. I led the troops all the way to fight before, and I was already in sight of victory, but I didn't expect the other party to play tricks! I, Zhao Yun, have been upright all my life, and I can't understand the tricks in these tactics!" Zhao Yun shook his head and sighed.

"In the final analysis, we can only blame ourselves for being careless. For some reason, I always feel that those two mysterious people belong to our camp." Zhiming determined intuitively.

"How do you know? If they are soldiers from Changsha, how could they be from our camp? Our army has never gained control of Changsha." Zhao Yun expressed doubts.

Zhiming didn't say anything, but he already had a suspect in his heart.

"Do you still have the strength? Can you untie me?" Zhao Yun didn't want to sit still.He could see that Zhiming's poisoning was not that deep.

Zhiming wanted to wait for the mysterious person to show up, so he said, "I don't have enough internal energy, let's rest for a while. Don't worry, those undead will not kill us for the time being."

"It's a pity that I can't exert my strength..." Zhao Yun hadn't eaten a grain of rice for several days, and he was poisoned, and his whole body was weak.

…………

"General Huang, are we just sitting on the sidelines? After all, we were able to enter the city only because he broke the city gate." Wei Yan, who was hiding in the dark, asked the people around him.

"Be patient, don't be impulsive. You also know that those undead are very powerful, and we can't break through their defenses with just the strength of the two of us. Moreover, I have confronted the enemy general once, and the other party should recognize me. Act rashly If you don’t, I’m afraid you’ll follow in the same footsteps.” Huang Zhong looked at the two looming figures in the darkness from a distance, although he wanted to save each other, he was powerless.

"That person should be Lei Zhiming, right? The moves he used just now are somewhat similar to those in Xinye." Wei Yan deduced.

Huang Zhong thought of the giant wolf and said, "I always have a feeling that the disappearance of the giant wolf and the recovery of my body are all related to Lei Zhiming."

"No way, how is it possible?" Wei Yan didn't believe it, "He's just an ordinary soldier! I heard that we were saved that night because the savior appeared."

"How can there be a savior in the world? Even if there is, it is just an immortal, Taoist priest, or a monk with powerful magic power. People who practice immortality and Taoism have obtained mana. It is not surprising that occasionally the savior is there. Save everyone and revive me that night It is definitely the same person, although it is not sure if it is him; if it is, it is enough to prove that he is a cultivator or a monk. Judging from the fight just now, there is indeed incredible power in his body, but it is not Beware of the tricks of the undead. Let's wait and see what happens, the enemy has already laid a trap, as long as you act impulsively, you will definitely be caught." Huang Zhong did not dare to act rashly.

"Can't we just wait? We've been waiting all night, and the rooster is about to crow... No, there are no chickens and dogs left here. I mean, don't forget the original intention of us coming back. ..." Wei Yan just wanted to finish the mission early and return to Jiangxia.

"Wait a little longer, wait for dawn before acting. When I said I would save people, you agreed without saying a word. Thank you, Wenchang." Huang Zhong said gratefully, looking at his teammates.

"What are you talking about, we are good partners!" Wei Yan yawned and said, "When I came to Changsha in despair, I was taken in only because of your kind words in front of the prefect. The prefect doesn't have much affection, after all, he hasn't done much to benefit the people."

"Having said that, he is our old master after all. Even if you don't save him, I will be saved. Unless you let me see his dead body with my own eyes." Huang Zhong has his own principles of life, and would rather let go of the important task of guarding Jiang Xia. It is also necessary to risk returning to Changsha to save people.

"Old General Huang, you can count the points. If you want to save Han Xuan and cause Jiang Xia to fall, and the emperor blames it, you and I can't afford it!" Wei Yan reminded him again.

"Since you're here, why are you still talking about this? If Soochow is determined to capture Jiangxia, Liu Qi won't be able to hold it long before we show up." Although Huang Zhong is old, his eyes that are not affected by age are still there. Sharp as an eagle, staring closely at every movement ahead.

"That's true. Tell me, why didn't Sun Quan attack Jiang Xia earlier?" Wei Yan couldn't figure it out.

"Isn't it because you didn't do anything? Didn't you destroy Huang Zu before? If it wasn't for Liu Biao's quick response, Jiang Xia would have already fallen into the hands of Soochow. Before Sun Quan had time to deploy the next step, Cao Cao went south, and he temporarily let go of this sect." Thoughts. Now that Cao Jun has retreated, Soochow is definitely going to attack Jiang Xia." Huang Zhong analyzed.

"Then we shouldn't have come back!" Wei Yan had no feelings for Han Xuan as a monarch, but just to cooperate with Huang Zhong's actions.

"Hush! There is a situation!" Huang Zhong quickly lowered his head when he realized that the news had been updated.

…………

Guan Yu led his army to Changsha County overnight, and suddenly felt a disturbing aura coming from his nostrils.After the soldiers who were already exhausted felt the abnormality in the city, they cheered up.

"The wind is blowing, the air is dead, and there are no torches on the walls. Could it be that the city has been massacred? Is it Cao Jun or the undead? Huang Zhong doesn't seem to have lied to us." Guan Yu felt strange and hesitated whether to enter the city.

"General, there is no light in the surrounding area and the city gate is wide open. There must be an ambush inside the city!" said a soldier next to him.

Holding a torch, Guan Yu looked ahead carefully, and said, "Even if there is an ambush on all sides, we have to go in. Zilong must have been ambushed, and he may have been captured for a long time; if he is not rescued, his life may be in danger! You Zhiming, this kid came here without a single soldier, I really admire his courage!"

After all, Guan Yu gave an order, and all the troops rushed into the city on horseback.

The scene in front of them made everyone pale with horror: the whole city was lifeless, not only people, but even livestock were killed.There was no ambush around.

"What the hell happened here?" A soldier was shaking so badly that he couldn't even hold on to the reins.

There was no light in the city, but with the help of the torches in their hands, everyone could still see a scene of mourning.The undried corpse gave off a stench. Judging from the style of the armor, it was the army brought by Zhao Yun.

After a section of dilapidated streets, everyone finally saw the county mansion, and it was just dawn at this time.

Guan Yu saw two people whose hands were tied and hung, but the distance was a bit far, and their faces could not be seen clearly.

"You stay here, I'll go and have a look. Pay attention to the movement around you, and watch out for traps." Guan Yu felt that the two were still alive, so he decided to go to rescue them, and ordered the soldiers to stay.

The soldiers stayed where they were, in defensive formation.Guan Yu put out the torch and rushed forward with the Qinglong Saber in hand.

Taking a closer look, it was really his own family. Guan Yu reined in his horse and thought, "There really are ambushes! I didn't expect that even they..."

"Brother Yun, don't go any further, be careful of the bone spirit!" Zhiming shouted anxiously after seeing the opponent's face clearly.

"Bone Demon?" Guan Yu suddenly felt that he had come to hell.

Suddenly, the city was full of ghosts, and ambushes appeared everywhere.The Skeleton Legion attacked in groups, coming overwhelmingly.

Due to the ferocious approach of the enemy, Liu Bei's army was in chaos, and countless people fell from their horses.

"This... what kind of monsters are these?!" Guan Yu couldn't help exclaiming when he saw these hideous and flying skeletons, "Could it be...Changsha was captured by these monsters?"

"General Guan, they are powerful, be careful!" Zhao Yun shouted hoarsely with the rest of his breath.

Two skeleton warriors flew towards them, scaring the Chituma so much that its hooves became limp.Guan Yu fell off his horse.

Guan Yu's eyes were sharp and his hands were quick. He blocked the opponent's knife, and swept it against the wind like a wind knife, and the bones of ghost soldiers flew away.

A skeleton warrior tried to stab the red rabbit horse with a spear, but was kicked off by a double hoof.

The fierce offensive of the Skeleton Army made Liu Bei's army helpless, and all three hundred soldiers were killed.

Zhiming was struggling to break free from the rope. Normally, this kind of thing would not trouble him at all; it may be that he has used too much magic recently, which has seriously damaged his vitality. It can be seen from the fact that he was easily suffocated by poisonous gas.

Several skeleton warriors flew over.Zhiming didn't have time to think about it, so he used the mind movement technique, using the invisible man to stop the enemy.

Seeing the enemy in front of him being dismembered by the air continuously, Zhao Yun, who was already dying, seemed to be rejuvenated, and instantly became refreshed.He felt an invisible force around him helping to fight monsters.

After using mind movement, Zhiming became weaker and vomited a puddle of blood.

"Zhiming, are you alright?" Zhao Yun asked seeing that his teammates were in trouble.

"...It's okay, Brother Zilong, let's... together...run out..." Zhiming decided to make a quick decision.

"But, this rope is too tight..."

Before he finished speaking, a flash of light cut Zhao Yun's hemp rope.Looking at his free hands, Zhao Yun was speechless for a moment.

The sudden light flashed again and cut Zhiming's rope again.Zhao Yun took a closer look and saw that there was a sword shrouded in divine light in Zhiming's hand.

Zhiming looked at the divine sword in his hand and said, "Brother Jian, if you don't come to help me, I'm going to vomit blood and die."

"What kind of sword is this? How did it appear in your hand? How did the rope break?" Zhao Yun was amazed.

"My exclusive weapon—Devil-Slaying Excalibur." Zhiming asked without explaining, "Where's your weapon?"

Only then did Zhao Yun remember that the silver spear had been taken away, and said, "It must be in the hands of these undead! I have to get it back!"

"Let's enter the county together and take Changsha!" Zhiming was full of fighting spirit at the moment, and used his energy channels to expel the toxins from his body.
