The next morning, Beibei asked the magistrate of Langcheng County, the county officials and a thousand soldiers to handle the aftermath of Langcheng.

Fortunately, nearly 100,000 people were nearby, and many of Wolf City’s original inhabitants burst into tears when they saw the devastated Wolf City.

The people from other surrounding villages and the people from Shicheng who were forcibly brought to Wolf City all expressed their willingness to stay in Wolf City temporarily and go back after rebuilding Wolf City.

Beibei left enough food and one million taels of silver for the people of Wolf City to use for a year.

Beibei led 150,000 troops and after joining forces with General Zhang's 50,000 troops, a total of 200,000 troops set out towards Xiongcheng in a mighty manner.

When the army was halfway along, a scout came to report: "Reporting to the commander, Xiong Cheng..."

The scout looked grim and was somewhat speechless.

Bei Bei stared at the scout and asked seriously, "Tell me quickly, what happened in Xiongcheng?"

The scout took a deep breath and said, "All 50,000 Northern Alliance rear troops in Xiongcheng died inexplicably. Now it is a dead city."

"What?" Beibei couldn't believe what he heard.

"The 50,000 Northern Alliance rear troops have turned into bones. Bear City is now a dead city." The scout repeated.

Beibei then realized that something serious had happened, so he ordered: "The whole army should speed up the march."

"General Zhang, you lead the army to continue advancing. I will lead a cavalry to go and take a look first." After Bei Bei finished speaking, he rode away with the sacred fire and 10,000 cavalry.

"Take care, Marshal." General Zhang's voice came

Beibei waved his hand and quickly disappeared on the mountain path.

Beibei rode his horse and arrived at Xiongcheng near dusk. At this moment, the outskirts of Xiongcheng were surrounded by Jiang Yuan's 50,000 troops.

When Bei Bei saw Jiang Yuan, he asked, "How's the city going?"

Jiang Yuan shook his head and said, "According to the military order, we marched through Xiongcheng last night and cut off the main traffic routes between Xiongcheng and Hucheng. When we passed Xiongcheng, we found that it was unusually quiet, so I sent spies into the city to spy. After the spies entered the city, they found that the 50,000 Northern Alliance rear troops in Xiongcheng had turned into skeletons."

"For this reason, I sent someone to inform the Marshal overnight, and at the same time led the troops to surround Xiongcheng." Jiang Yuan recounted the general situation.

Bei Bei nodded, looked at Sheng Huo and said, "Sheng Huo, what do you think about this?"

Holy Fire shook his head and said, "I have a rough guess. Let's go into the city first and take a look!"

Bei Bei nodded, looked at Jiang Yuan and said, "General Jiang, let's go into the city and take a look. You are just an ordinary person, so don't follow us."

Jiang Yuan knew that this was a strange matter. After hearing what Bei Bei said, he nodded and said, "Take care, Marshal."

Beibei smiled bitterly and rode into Bear City with the holy fire.

After entering the city, the two saw that the 50,000 soldiers of Xiongcheng were now skeletons wearing armor.

These skeletons are either standing, sitting, squatting, or lying down, as if these people were busy with their own things when they were alive, and time suddenly stopped, and the people in the city instantly remained in the moment when time stopped.

Afterwards, their souls and blood disappeared, and they seemed to have experienced tens of thousands of years, and they turned into a pile of bones.

"What a powerful evil magic!" Beibei has already figured out some tricks.

Holy Fire nodded and said: "Although only the souls of the two evil old thieves are left, the Taoism mastered by the Magic Emperor should not be underestimated!"

"Are you saying that this was done by those two old guys from the Immortal Master Association and the God and Demon Association?" Beibei asked doubtfully.

Holy Fire nodded and said, "These two old guys fought with us for a long time, which was not conducive to their soul repair. In the end, we forced them to attack their disciples and escape with the blood escape technique. I think there is a serious problem with their blood escape technique. This time, the two of them were injured, so they came to Bear City to perform evil magic and absorbed the blood and souls of the people in the city to stabilize the soul repair of the two thieves."

"Hey!" Beibei sighed and said, "Now that we have figured out what happened, let's go!"

Shenghuo nodded and followed Beibei out of Bear City.

After Beibei left the city, he met Jiang Yuan and told him about his and the Holy Fire's judgment.

Jiang Yuan also sighed helplessly, and then asked: "Marshal, what should we do with the remains in the city?"

Beibei thought for a moment and said, "Let's bury them all!"

Jiang Yuan saw that it was getting dark, and said, "Marshal, you are tired, eat and rest first! I will arrange for the soldiers to bury the remains."

Bei Bei looked at the sky and said, "Tomorrow! These are 50,000 people who died unjustly. Their resentment is extremely strong. Let's bury them tomorrow at noon, when the sun is at its brightest and the resentment is at its weakest!"

"Yes, sir!" Jiang Yuan said, clasping his fists.

Afterwards, Beibei said to the messenger, "Pass on my military order. Rest here today, and the army will march to Tiger City tomorrow."

"Yes!" The messenger went down to pass on the order.

After a whole day of traveling on the mountain road, Beibei and Shenghuo returned to their respective tents early to rest.

In the middle of the night, the sound of chaotic footsteps and chaotic shouts coming from outside the military tent woke up Beibei and Shenghuo.

Suddenly, Jiang Yuan's voice came from outside Beibei's tent: "Marshal, something bad has happened, go and have a look!"

Beibei put on his armor, walked out of the tent and asked, "What happened to General Jiang?"

Beibei's curiosity was aroused when she saw that Jiang Yuan, who was not afraid of death in battle, was now a little panicked.

"Something happened to the Marshal. Many skeletons wearing armor poured out of Bear City." Jiang Yuan looked a little pale.

"What? Is it a zombie?" Shenghuo just walked out of the military tent and blurted out after hearing Jiang Yuan's description.

Jiang Yuan shook his head and said, "I don't know."

"Let's go and take a look." Beibei, Shenghuo and Jiang Yuan did not dare to delay and ran towards Xiongcheng.

Soon, Beibei, Shenghuo and Jiang Yuan arrived at the military camp facing the gate of Xiongcheng.

I saw rows of chevaux de frise and fences blocking the teams of armored skeleton soldiers pouring out of Bear City.

Many soldiers desperately held on to the chevaux de frise and fences, fearing that they would be hit and the group of bones would rush in.

Bei Bei frowned and looked at the scene not far away, feeling somewhat at a loss. He asked the Holy Fire beside him, "Holy Fire, what should we do?"
