At the same time, in the distance, the fifth brother Pei Jing was riding on a big ostrich whose legs were raising dust crazily.

Looking from afar, there was smoke and dust all around. He stretched his neck and saw his brother and sister surrounded by a group of people.

His expression changed immediately.

He waved his hand, and a flock of birds flying in the sky followed him and flew forward.

After the birds have finished their patrol.

Pei Jing immediately showed disgust on his face and spat in his heart.

Damn it, they’ve started eating people, how can they be good?

What kind of person would be so crazy as to choose to eat their own kind?

After these 'people' have been poisoned by the Gu, can they still call for help?

Pei Jing patted the ostrich under him, asking it to go faster.

half an hour.

He looked at the group of cannibals in front of him who had formed a circle, blocked the way of several people, and wanted to raise their hands to catch his birds.

Among the cannibals, there were two relatively strong men who were tearing each other's human-shaped arms.

He frowned slightly.

Watching the two cannibals in front of him tearing a living person's arm into pieces and gnawing it into bones, Pei Jing felt a bit of murderous intent in his heart.

He received the news from his sister and naturally knew that there were cannibals outside the city in the wild land.

But I never thought that what Mingcheng described in the letter and what I actually saw gave people completely different feelings!

What Mingcheng wrote in the letter was so vague that he could not understand the scene of cannibals eating raw human flesh.

But now he has seen it.

It’s really... disgusting!

Just as he was about to jump off the big bird, he saw Ming Cheng and Gu Yuan had already taken action.

One of them raised the bell on his wrist, and the other took out the long sword hanging at his waist, and rushed towards the cannibals who were surrounding them in a circle.

Seeing this, Pei Jing slowly let go of the murderous intent in his heart.

He raised his eyebrows, turned his head curiously, and asked his third brother Pei Zhan who was standing aside and watching, "Third brother, you and Mingcheng have lost so much weight.

What? How fun is Yan State? Why are you two so interested in it that you are unwilling to come back home even though you have lost so much weight? "

Pei Zhan: "..."

Are they playing too much and don’t want to go home?

It was obvious that someone was blocking their way and preventing them from returning home!

Someone was being killed in the distance. Pei Chun, who had taken the time to listen, said: "..."

Fifth brother is really like that. Every time I am speechless, I want to beat him up!

"Fifth brother, do you want to see the wounds on my body and my second brother's body?" Pei Chun said loudly with a forced smile while killing people from a distance.

Pei Jing scratched his head: "Forget it, hehe."

Pei Chun: “…”

No wonder the fifth brother was always beaten by the third brother for no reason when he was a child, and the fourth brother always cheated the fifth brother the most. Who could bear not to cheat him?

Pei Jing turned around and saw that Pei Chun had spared the lives of several cannibals, so he asked curiously, "Why are you keeping these cannibals alive if you don't kill them?"

Before Pei Chun could speak, Pei Cui shook his head in disapproval: “I have already captured the cannibals outside the city.

These...were originally just the living dead in the city, and we still don't know why they suddenly turned into cannibals, so we still have to keep them here to study them."

Pei Jing said "oh" and snapped his fingers, calling back all the birds circling in the sky.

The fastest among them was Qingyan. It flapped its wings and dived into Pei Chun's arms.

The cry was full of anxiety, and it kept touching Pei Chun's injured shoulder with its beak.

This made Pei Chun feel soft-hearted.

She thought to herself that Xiaoqing cared about her more than her fifth brother did, and it was worth it that she had raised Xiaoqing for a long time when she was young.

As Pei Cui finished speaking, Gu Yuan suddenly said, "They evolved into cannibals because they drank the water from that river."

Gu Yuan pointed his slender fingers into the distance.

The bloodstains all around looked particularly eye-catching and distorted in the moonlight.

After he finished speaking, the air suddenly became quiet.

Everyone looked in the direction of his finger.

At this moment, the Royal Guards in the city seemed to have discovered Pei Cui's figure, and rode out on horseback with the doctors to support him.

"Second Master Pei!"

"It's Second Master Pei who's back!"

"Her Royal Highness Princess Funing is back too!"

The doctors were immediately delighted.

Before this, all affairs in the city were managed by Pei Cui, who was approachable.

He was also gentle in his character towards these civilian doctors, much better than the royal guards who would scold them at every turn.

"Gentlemen, why haven't you gone to bed yet so late?"

Pei Cui did not put on airs and greeted the doctors in a familiar manner.

"Yes, Master Pei San, in order to prevent these cannibals from breaking into the city, we are now taking turns to guard the city gate."

A relatively young doctor bowed to Pei Chun before answering.

Pei Cui nodded to indicate that he understood.

Then, before he could ask about the situation in the city, the relatively young doctor took the initiative to speak: "At the beginning, the living dead who accidentally left the city were like crazy, and they took the initiative to drink the water from the river outside the city.

As a result, within a day, after drinking it, they turned into conscious cannibals again.

And I found that the poisonous insects in their bodies seemed to be evolving..."

After the doctor finished speaking, silence fell all around.

Gu Yuan suddenly asked, "Because they were very united before, they only ate living people from outside.

Now, they are sane, wary of those around them, and will kill each other, right?"

As soon as Gu Yuan said this, the doctor was shocked: "How did you know that?"

He was still dressed in women's clothes today, and he did not take off the human skin mask on his face, so these doctors were not unfamiliar with Gu Yuan's face and their questions were more natural.

Gu Yuan smiled mysteriously: "And this group of cannibals will choose one person as food every night and eat him alive. Am I right?"

The moment Gu Yuan finished asking, the young doctor's eyes widened in shock: "Yes! That's right, they have eaten many people alive in succession!

And eat it every night!"

Gu Yuan smiled but said nothing.

When he and Mingcheng were on their way to the State of Yan, he had seriously thought about why the living dead who were infected with the beast flesh poison would turn into cannibals.

I have also carefully studied what the differences are between the poisonous insects in these cannibals and those in the living dead in the city.

Now that he had just returned, he saw at a glance the many failed poisonous insects that Xiaohong had once eaten in the river.

The people who raise and control the Gu often throw their own Gu insects into the jar and let them fight each other on their own.

Every fight will make the surviving poisonous insects more powerful than before.

At that time, Xiaohong only had one snake, and it ate almost half of the poisonous insects in the river.

Not to mention, he also had many other poisonous insects eating a lot in the river.

All the insects that were able to survive his poison were extremely powerful and very good at hiding.

So it is naturally possible that the cannibals outside the city can evolve.

After confirming the performance of this group of people and observing their physical condition, he was almost certain in his mind.

the other side.

Pei Cui, who went to check the wounds on the cannibals, sighed in his heart.

In the end, I still feel sorry for the lives of the living dead. They were fine a few days ago, but not long after, so many of them died in vain again.

He couldn't help but looked up at Gu Yuan and asked, "Fuchuan, do you know any way to save those living dead in the city?"
