Chapter 37 Unexpected Discovery

"Still coming out?" Kong Zhu said.

Su Gewen and the others cast their gazes behind a bad wall not far away at the same time. Obviously, the tricks that those people thought they could hide from them were not enough in their eyes.

When the people behind the wall heard this, they couldn't help but suffocate for a moment.Then he walked out slowly.The leader of this group was Qian Su who had just had a conflict with them.There are about a hundred soldiers in this team, among them there are no familiar faces that they have seen before, and their faces are also quite green, looking more like the new reserve force in Floating Light City.

Qiansu lowered her head with a complex expression, and when she was a few steps away from Kongzhu, she suddenly knelt down towards her and said respectfully: "This subordinate is here to support some adults, but he came a step late, which disturbed these people My lord, please forgive my sin." The soldiers behind him all knelt on the ground, and said at the same time: "Please forgive me, my lord."

"You are General Gudu's subordinate, how dare I punish you?" Kong Zhu casually bent down to inspect the corpse of a commoner beside him.On the neck of the corpse, there was a deep bone scar, and the eyes were wide open. The killer was extremely ruthless, killing him with a single knife, without delay.Kong Zhu already had a rough understanding of the characters of those two people in his heart.

They are all outstanding members of the law enforcement team. To put it bluntly, the law enforcement team is more like the dark guards and dead soldiers trained by those big families to do some shady things.However, it is clear that the status of the law enforcement team members is much higher than that of those people. They are the elite of the elite, and most of them are direct descendants of noble blood, so they will not be reduced to pawns that can be easily discarded.The purpose of their existence is obviously not what the patriarch said, just to protect the peace of the cold river peak and punish the clansmen who made mistakes.

A person's personality can be seen in his eyes.It is true that Kongzhu's mind reading skills are completely useless to them because of their blood.But in many cases, to understand a person, you don't need a tasteless mind-reading skill.Like Zuo Guangyao, these are the accumulation of experience.It was a lesson that Kong Zhu had learned with his blood after struggling in the man-eating palace for more than ten years.

From the person's inadvertent body movements, she could fully perceive the tension and anxiety in their hearts, and from their inadvertent frowning, she could also see the struggle and hesitation in their hearts.The sensitivity honed from the hell-like cold palace, the accurate grasp of any emotion, saved her life more than once.

Hearing her words that she couldn't tell whether they were sarcasm or mockery, Qian Su couldn't help but tremble in his heart.Since they knew where they were hiding, they could naturally know that they had come here a long time ago.After their provocation just now, he was about to return to the military camp in Floating Light City, when he had a vague feeling that something was wrong.Not far away, he suddenly realized the general's mistake.For the people in the city, seeing such a group of people with obviously high status, it is no wonder that they are not ready to move.

Qian Su inevitably hesitated at the time, but just remembering that Shu Hua mentioned that these people were the general's distinguished guests, she asked the injured brother to go back to rest first, and hurriedly sent another team of soldiers to look for them.The barracks was stationed in the open space not far from the post house. Kong Zhu and the others were slow in their movements, and coupled with repeated obstacles, the distance they walked was not far.Qian Su and others soon saw their whereabouts.However, after the people surrounded him and the tragedy of cannibalism happened, for some reason, he actually issued an order to stay alert.

Seeing the people rushing forward like this, Qian Su shuddered and quickly woke up.Just when he was about to order his brothers to go up to help, he saw the strange movements of those two men, and then he saw a scene that he would never forget in his life.

"Is the heart-reading pulse so powerful?" Qian Su asked suddenly.

Kong Zhu was a little surprised, for the first time he raised his eyes to look at the young man's face.Su Gewen frowned, and said in a low voice beside Kong Zhu: "They are from the Tiger Clan in the south of the Five Ridges. They are born with supernatural powers and are the best fighters. But they can't cultivate, so the clan's reputation is not outstanding. They Their totem is a tiger, and they think they are the descendants of the tiger king, under the beast god."

Su Gewen's eyes swept over Qian Su's body, and his eyes stayed on the exquisite tiger king pattern embroidered on the corner of his battle robe, and there was a trace of disgust in his tone: "They don't really own The ancient survivors of the god blood, we think what they said is nothing more than their own fabrications. In the great war thousands of years ago, if it were not for the involvement of them and some other hermit clans, we would not have been defeated. It was so miserable.

I have dealt with these guys when I traveled to the mainland before, except for a few sober clans, the others are just some idiots who sit in a well and don't know the world.Huddled in his one-acre three-point land, immersed in the daydream of sitting on the world and couldn't extricate himself. "

His voice was not loud at the beginning, and later, his voice did not restrain at all.With a blunt tone, the annoyed Qiansu blushed and glared at Su Gewen fiercely.

Shi Sang shook his head helplessly: "I have been with you for a long time, and Mr. Qianqian has been forced to be so irritable and irritable."

Kong Zhu squinted at Shi Sang, and was about to refute.At this time, the sound of fighting in the distance suddenly became intense. The low roar of the unknown creature, accompanied by the screams of the soldiers, became more and more hysterical.

Everyone didn't understand, so they all looked at the source of the sound.It was the place where the Nancheng Gate fought.Qian Su's complexion changed, and he was the first to realize: "The city is about to collapse!" His soldiers looked nervous.He picked up the weapon, without the slightest hesitation, and quickly led them towards the battlefield.At the same time, except for the soldiers who were seriously injured and unable to stand up in Floating Light City, as long as they were able to move, all rushed to support the south gate.

Everyone knows that the so-called non-my race must have a different heart.As long as the skeleton army breaks through Floating Light City, no matter it is for increasing their own numbers or for other purposes, all living people in Floating Light City will be slaughtered.

They don't want to live in such a difficult way anymore, but they don't want to be such thoughtless walking dead.If the Floating Light City can no longer be defended, they will all become one of them.Then maybe one day in the future, the weapon in his hand will penetrate the chest of his parents and crush his wife's head in a daze.In the end, there wasn't even a chance to grieve.

Kong Zhu and the others had a brief conversation, and then followed.With Shuhua and the others present, they went up the city wall smoothly.This city wall is far inferior to the thickness and width of the city wall of the Western Regions.The city wall is 3 Zhang 6 high, 5 Zhang 4 wide at the bottom, 4 Zhang 5 wide at the top, and the front wall is only about 777 Zhang long.But for this small floating light city, such a city wall is enough.

The area where they are standing now has not yet been attacked by the enemy, and many skeleton soldiers have already climbed up on the walls of other places.Looking from a distance, there is still white light reflecting under the city wall, and countless skeleton soldiers are attacking in this direction continuously.They hold sharp blades, have hard bones, and are extremely powerful.It often takes a soldier to attack several times to just repel them, but if the weapons in their hands touch the soldiers, the armor worn by the soldiers will be as if they were made of paper, either dead or disabled.

The ferocious skulls flew up, the hidden light occasionally flashed in the empty eyes, the broken limbs were scattered, half of the heads of the soldiers were cut off, and there were hundreds of thousands of people on the battlefield.The smell of blood wafted into the air, and the ground was stained red with blood.This brought Shi Sang and others an unparalleled shock.

After all, they are all direct descendants of the family. Although killings are often done, such a scene of a war involving tens of 10 people has never been seen before.In such a scene, the power of the individual is extremely small.No matter how brave and skilled the general is, he is no match for the siege and interception of hundreds of enemy troops.

The battle became more and more intense. At this time, a few skeletons broke through the defense line of the soldiers in the front row from time to time, and rushed towards them in the air.Without her saying much, the five young soldiers and two guards consciously surrounded them.Shi Sang squatted down slowly, with his palms flat on the ground, quietly feeling something.Xingkong also seemed to have discovered something, his gaze was like a torch, scanning the huge number of skeletons in the distance.

Yan Feng looked at the soldiers who suffered heavy casualties with an ugly expression, and clenched his fists tightly.His strength is low, and now he does not hold military power, so he can only anxiously patrol the possible defense loopholes.After a while, he suddenly spotted a familiar figure from the dense crowd, turned his head and said to Kong Zhu, "Gu Du is there."

Kong Zhu looked in the direction he indicated, and in the area where the enemy army was densest in the middle of the city wall, the soldiers in black armor were particularly conspicuous.Soldiers continued to come to support, the enemy was repulsed again and again, and their offensive gradually weakened.Inch by inch the occupied walls were recaptured.

Gu Du seemed to sense the gazes of the two, and looked back.His eyes were particularly deep, but for a man in his 30s, his expression showed a bit of old vicissitudes.Seeing Yan Feng in such a place, he was obviously surprised.Immediately afterwards, his eyes fell on Kong Zhu.

The two stared at each other quietly for a long time.Shi Sang finally stood up at this time, with a serious tone: "Ah Zhu, haven't we always understood how they manipulated so many skeletons? Now I finally know how they did it."

This news is too important, Kong Zhu took the lead to quickly move his eyes away, looking at Shi Sang: "How did you do it?"

Shi Sang didn't show off, Xing Kong also turned around, and the two looked at each other with almost the same complicated expressions: "It's a formation."

She went on to say: "This kind of formation is very similar to the formation engraved in the nine tokens cast by our ancestors. The ancestors called this kind of formation the surviving formation. The power of this formation , that is, it can store a considerable amount of energy for the main array to use at any time. Moreover, the energy consumed in this use can also automatically absorb external energy to replenish itself. This is actually an enlarged version of the surviving array This magic circle is huge, if you want to control the corpses in the city, then this magic circle should not only cover the entire southern city wall, but even some parts of the magic circle must exist in the floating city."

Xingkong's cultivation base is similar to that of Shi Sang, both of them are outstanding in the line of divination, and what Shi Sang can feel, he can also vaguely know.At this moment, Kong Zhu suddenly realized that he had overlooked some incredible things.

Shi Sang and Xingkong looked very serious, this matter is definitely of great importance, the divination formation actually appeared on such an occasion, if it is discovered by others, no matter what the reason is, he will The whole family, even the family of prophets, will be implicated.

Xingkong said: "Underground, the fluctuation of the formation is underground, and those necromancers are also huddled underground. There are many hollow signs in the distance in front of the floating light city, and even under the wall of the floating light city. Should have been completely hollowed out."

However, it has not collapsed after bearing tens of 10 people. It is conceivable how strong this underground kingdom is.Such a huge underground project cannot be completed overnight.But the more this is the case, the more it proves the correctness of Kong Zhu and others' previous guesses.Once the purpose of making them endure for so long breaks out, it will be absolutely irresistible.

"A bunch of shady rats!" Su Gewen said angrily.

"I'm afraid that their purpose is not just to seek Dachang's power." Kong Zhu said wearily.

Shi Sang's heart skipped a beat, and the two looked at each other, seeing the worry in each other's eyes.
