Envy

Meng Tou and the disciples of the Town God's Temple ordered a few words, and then Yu Jian disappeared into the night.

Through the miasma, he saw the corpses that covered Zhao Lincheng like ants.They are like an undercurrent, like a flood, flowing into every corner of Eternal Night City.He also met the disciples of various sects who were helping the people in the city to evacuate.Several haystacks were on fire, attracting corpses.

He flew to the original place.The roof was empty and there was no one there.He panicked, jumped from the roof to the ground, and saw that the door of the house was open, but there was no one there.He didn't know where his mother-in-law and the little girl had gone. He backed out of the house, feeling as if he had stepped on something soft under his feet.

He looked down at the moonlight, and his pupils suddenly constricted—it was a small arm wrapped in a sleeve, resting on a pool of blood.The bloodstains dripped and extended into the distance.Meng Tou followed the bloodstain and found several corpses by the earth wall near the woods.

The corpse men formed a half circle, lowering their heads, gobbling and biting something.Meng Tou raised his sword to cut through the night, and the sword energy shook the corpse.The corpse man fell to the sides, and he saw what was surrounded by the corpse man.It was a small body, the stomach was cut open, the internal organs were hollowed out, the intestines were exposed, the little girl's hair was messy, and her face was covered with blood.

Meng Tou's hand holding the sword trembled, he roared uncontrollably, swung his knife towards the corpses, and beheaded them all.Those corpses were still chewing with blood in their mouths until they died, and their lips were bloody.

Before the corpse man could make a sound, his head rolled down.

Meng Tou beheaded and killed all the corpses, but still heard the slight sound, and the rustling of the leaves in the wind.He walked around the earth wall, and saw two corpses bent over there.They surrounded a withered body, the gray-haired old man was exposed to flesh and bones, leaning against the earthen wall with his eyes closed.

He killed the two corpses that rushed up, and knelt beside the old man for a long time before reaching out tremblingly, brushing away the white hair on the old man's forehead, and the moment Meng Tou wiped the blood from her eyes, he suddenly felt despair , Tears almost welled up in the eyes.He stood up, holding the hilt of the sword, and stabbed the end of the sword into the ground, one stroke after another.

Mu Su's cold wind made his face and the dry back of his hands ache. He was full of hatred, and every time he hit it, it seemed that he wanted to stab the instigators.He dug a pit and buried his mother-in-law and little girl.

When he walked out there, the childish voice of the little girl was still echoing in his head. "My grandma is the best grandma in the world, and my older sister is the best older sister in the world."

He couldn't bring them back.

There are a few old lanterns hanging under the eaves of Musu Long Street, and several fires are burning on the street.Holding the sword, he walked from the street to the end, all the way full of anger, killing corpses on the street with red eyes.

He thought about the night wind blowing through the forest, and about the young girl.The little girl leaned against the earthen wall, her soft hair fluttered as soon as the wind passed, her face was pale, and she was so quiet that she seemed to be asleep.

So, what did the people in the city do wrong?

Why are they displaced, why do they live like ants?

Killing against fate is beyond the tolerance of heaven.

……

Meng Tou reappeared in the center of the city, as if he had walked out of the Shura field.His face and white clothes were stained with the dark green blood of the corpse, his eyes were as cold as cold stars, and the three-foot drinking ice sword was stained with blood, dripping on the ground, following his footprints.

Disciple Mu Su had never seen Meng Tou like this, never seen such cold murderous look in his eyes.

He asked, "Can the people in the city evacuate safely?"

After killing all the corpses gathered and scattered in all directions, the disciples of each sect returned to the center of the city and stationed here to wait for orders.One of Mu Mi's disciples flew down from the roof, walked up to Meng Tou, cupped his fists and said, "Uncle, all the sects in Zhao Lincheng have returned to the center of the city. There has been no news of the group of disciples led to the north of the city with Uncle Xue Ye."

Meng Tou took off the Yanhuo order from his waist and held it up to show others: "Disciple Mu Su obeys the order. All disciples who are over sixteen years old will stay in Mu Su temporarily to wait for orders. The rest of Mu Su's disciples and disciples of other sects will go out of the city with swords and seal the knot. Zhao Lincheng."

The older and calmer disciples understood that Meng Tou was planning to seal the city.He ordered the young disciples and their disciples to evacuate outside the city in order to protect the lives of more people.Corpse people and ghosts can gain inexhaustible power by bathing in the moonlight. After the disciples seal the city with an enchantment, they can control the raging actions of corpse people and wild spirits.

But at the same time, ascetics will also be restrained.

The more disciples are left to the end, the more dangerous they are.If the situation is out of control, Meng Tou will order to seal the entrance of the karst cave on the barrier layer, and Mu Su's disciples will be buried with the corpse in Zhao Lin.

No one is stupid.When the young disciples of Mu Mi and other sects Yu Jian withdrew, some of them hesitated and shyly entered and exited the city. As soon as they stepped on the sword, they heard Meng Tou's cold voice from behind.

"Mu Su's disciples who are over sixteen years old will stay with Mu Su on standby."

They didn't listen and left on their own.One person stuck his neck and said, "Why should we keep it, so that disciples from other sects can leave Zhao Lin!" After saying that, without looking back, he swayed his sword, sneaked into the disciples, and rushed into the sky.

Among the remaining disciples, those who were hesitant, most of them encouraged each other and left too.Someone sighed and said: "Master Uncle Meng Tou, I am the only son in my family, so I cannot die here. I will leave first." He turned around and was about to leave.

Meng Tou said: "Out of Zhao Lin, you are no longer Mu Mi's disciples."

The man faltered, but still insisted on leaving.

In the end, only a dozen or so disciples of Mu Su remained.They are willing to live and die together with Meng Tou and Mu Su.Meng Tou led them to the north of Zhao Lincheng, looking for Uncle Xi Ze and Xue Ye.

The gray sky above Zhao Lincheng was quickly cast into a transparent barrier blanket by the disciples of various sects.Along the way, the corpses they encountered moved slowly. Most of the corpses withered into dry bones or turned into a pool of corpse water due to lack of moonlight to bathe.And it has become extremely difficult for them to go here.

Although some caves remained on the barrier, the miasma was suppressed and became more and more dense.They had difficulty breathing, their heads were dizzy, and their bodies became weak.

They all thought that they could resolve the war in the north of the city as soon as possible and send the last batch of people out of Zhao Lincheng safely.But the corpses were densely gathered in the north of the city, and as soon as they entered, they fought with the disciples who stayed in the north of the city. They lit the grass and trees to attract groups of corpses.Meng Tou got away for a while, and Yu Jian jumped onto the pavilion, looking around, he didn't see Uncle Xi Ze.

There were some common people left in the building, and Mu Su's disciple, Yu Jian, took the common people out of the cave.

There are corpses under the high platform, and the disciples on the stone steps are desperately resisting.

Seeing Xue Ye standing in front of the pavilion, Meng Tou ran up to him and asked, "Xue Ye, where did Uncle Xi Ze go?"

Xue Ye's expression was very strange, he was silent for a long time, his dry lips parted, and his voice was hoarse: "He is dead."
