Chapter 591 A Dead City

Chapter 614 A Dead City

It was very cold in the morning in late autumn, and three middle-aged men in thick robes rode side by side on steeds, driving quickly on the deserted official road, and hurried towards a city in the distance.

Since the Western Regions were all conquered by the Qin army, the development trajectory centered on the Silk Road has risen rapidly, and more and more caravans brought camels and goods across the vast Gobi to enter the western region.

The vast desert was originally a place where it was difficult for human beings to gain a foothold, but as the Qin army continued to build post stations, it forced a guiding direction from the grassland stroke like a stronghold.

"Haha, Che Chicheng is ahead. When we get to Chechicheng, the three of us should have a drink or two to warm up our bodies." A burly man at the head said with a big smile. After signing a business, he was naturally in a very good mood.

In front, the city walls of Chechi City could already be seen.

Chechi City was originally the capital of the Chechi Kingdom, a small country in the Western Regions. After the Chechi Kingdom was destroyed, it became a resting place for businessmen passing by along the way.

In addition to the two or three thousand people in the city, there are three hundred soldiers of the Qin army guarding the city.

Although the three hundred soldiers still can't play the role of benefiting the storm when they encounter a strong enemy, as long as the city is not lost and the beacon tower in the city is still there, they can light the beacon to call for emergency help.

Riding for a while.

"Hey, strange thing, why is it so quiet?" The three brothers drove to the gate of Che Chi City, only to find that the gate of Che Chi City was wide open, but there was no one there.

"Although this city of Chechi is not a big city, it is quite prosperous. Why is it so early in the morning and there is no one around?" The three brothers got off their horses, and led the horses towards the city of Chechi in doubt.

The Qin army has a rule that the city gates will only be opened after dawn. If it is opened urgently, there must be a warrant from Xin Sheng, the highest military officer in the Western Regions. Other than that, no one's words will work.

Although it was getting brighter now, the city gate didn't look like it had just been opened, but it seemed that it hadn't been closed.

The wide streets are deserted.

silence!

"Damn it, this is it." These three middle-aged people who had been running around couldn't help but tremble in their hearts.

The weird scene made them feel a little unusual.

"Look what's ahead!" One of them pointed forward in shock. Not far away, there were two people lying on the street. The three middle-aged people immediately ran to the front, wanting to take a closer look.

But take a closer look.

"Dead!" The faces of the three middle-aged people changed.The two people lying on the ground were bleeding from seven holes, and the blood stained the ground, leaving a shocking dark purple pool.

The cold wind of deep winter blew, making the three middle-aged people shiver involuntarily.

"Ah~~" Only a terrified cry came from a distance.

The three middle-aged men immediately turned their heads to look, and saw a woman with disheveled hair running out of the distance, and the woman ran in terror.

"Why are you running? What happened?" The leader of the middle-aged man shouted immediately. They traveled all over the world, and they often saw dead people. It wasn't enough to scare them. What frightened them was... the extremely quiet moment. surroundings.

No one did not say that a figure finally appeared, and it turned out to be a dead person.

"Dead, all dead, all dead." The woman looked at the three middle-aged men, her eyes widened.

"What's all dead?" The three middle-aged people felt a little panic in their hearts.

"The people in the whole city are all dead, everyone is dead, all dead!" The woman said nervously.

The three middle-aged people were suddenly petrified.

All the people in the city are dead?
"They're all dead, they're all dead." The woman ran around nervously.

In the entire Chechi City overnight, there were more than 2000 people living in the city, plus [-] soldiers of the Qin Army, only a dozen survivors remained, and all the others died.

And those who survived by chance, most of them waited until dawn, opened the city gate in horror, and fled this terrible city.

This matter reached the ears of Xin Sheng stationed in Loulan as quickly as possible.

Shocked and furious, Xin Sheng immediately sent someone to investigate carefully, to find out why Che Chi City turned into a dead city overnight, and at the same time asked the dozens of survivors what happened.

When the final result was found, Xin Sheng felt that something was wrong, and immediately sent a letter to Xianyang.

Prince's mansion.

A bunch of people gathered here, not only Ying Gang was here, Chu Nangong and others were also here, everyone felt that the matter was difficult, and a group of people got together to discuss how to solve this matter.

"The situation is very strange. The dead people in the entire city are bleeding from seven holes, without a trace of scars on their bodies, from the weakest children to the strongest men, they are all the same."

In just one night, all the people in a city died, and the death was so strange.

If there is an army attacking, such a loss is nothing.

But the point, according to those who survived, was that no large army was attacking.

In such a situation, these great master-level powerhouses around them also felt a little bit of fear.

"As far as I know, this is not the first time this has happened!" Ying Gang said seriously.

"Oh?" Everyone's eyes fell on Ying Gang.

Ying Gang continued: "As far as I know, the same thing happened in a village in the northeast of Loulan City a few days ago. Almost all the 200 people in a village died overnight. Because the number of people is not counted. There are too many, and there are bandits around, so I don't pay much attention to it."

Huang Shigong frowned and said: "This is very strange. For example, there are nearly 3000 people in this car. Why do dozens of people survive this incident?"

"Yes, why are there still people surviving?" Huang Shigong also thinks this is doubtful.

If it is true that no chickens or dogs are left behind, then no grass will grow, how can there be a living creature left behind.

"And the building and so on are not damaged at all." Li Mu dug out the details in the information and told everyone present.

In the hall, a large group of people were very puzzled.

"Xin Sheng also sent someone to investigate, but they couldn't find any clues at all." Ying Gang was also very distressed.

"By the way, Your Highness, these survivors still have one thing in common."

Suddenly, a group of people in the hall looked at Sydney.

"The dozens of surviving people were all in places that were difficult to enter. For example, half of the dozens of surviving people were in the prison in Chechi City, and the rest were also in the basement or other places that were difficult to enter. " Li Mu said.

"It's difficult to enter, so you're not dead?" Ying Gang frowned, but soon he seemed to think of a possibility, looked at the people around him and said: "You say, if a top expert kills one by one, will he Will there be such a result?"

Everyone was taken aback when they heard the words.

What Ying just said is not impossible, but the question is, what master would do such a thing?
And what's the point of doing such a thing?
