step by step

Before the end of time came, Shi Sang took Kongzhu and Xingkong and took a step away first.The scouts detected that the enemy army was still four hundred miles away. After all, they were not a formally trained army. Those necromancers had to control so many puppets at the same time, and their speed would not be much faster anyway.

False Creek City is now the center of more than a dozen surrounding cities. All the families, businessmen, and common people gather here, and they naturally bring a wealth of wealth with them.Intimidated by the army, no matter how unwilling these people were, all the ethereal gems they collected were in Shi Sang's hands.

With these additions, although it is not enough to support a large formation, it already has a basic prototype.Just wait until the end of time comes, and make up for it simply, and this ancient formation that has been passed down for a long time can show its ferocious minions again.Hundreds of thousands of lives were sacrificed to it, and the glory of the family was declared to the world with blood.I believe that its appearance this time is enough to deter all careerists who have ill intentions towards the prophet family.

The time has come to the end of summer.Although the weather was not so hot, the air was filled with an indescribable dampness.Along the way, there was a faint rotten smell lingering at the tip of his nose.

Xingkong drove in front with a blank face.After another protest was suppressed with absolute force, he finally understood that when facing these two women, he only needed to do one thing, obey, absolutely obey.

The difference between voluntary and passive obedience is vast.At any rate, he could also comfort himself from the bottom of his heart, at least he wasn't like before, the one who was beaten lay on the bed for so long, and had to drive for the two of them after he recovered from his injury.Well, at least... Now I drive voluntarily, instead of being beaten up and forced to be a driver hahahahahaha.

Xingkong clenched the reins expressionlessly.

"The closer you get to the capital, the more corpses there are. It seems that this plague is very contagious." Shi Sang lifted the curtain and looked at the village in the distance.It's meal time now, but there are very few people in the village who are still burning smoke, and there are almost no people in the fields.Looking from a distance, there are black objects lying here and there, which are the bodies of dead villagers.

It is already very close to the magic capital, and after passing through two post stations, it will take about three days to reach the city of the magic capital.

"With the weather like this now...the corpses are decomposing very quickly. The people are busy fleeing, but there is no one to help bury the dead. In a few days, it is very likely that a new plague will be caused."

"Escape?" Shi Sang slightly turned half of his face to face Kong Zhu, with a half-smile tone: "Where can we escape? Foolish people, it's better to wait for death at home, at least...how about that idiom?" Come to think of it? Fallen leaves return to their roots? At least you don’t have to end up like a guest dying in a foreign land.”

Kong Zhu could understand the mockery in her tone, and said casually: "Well, at least you have to resist for a while before you see hope? No one wants to die so easily, maybe you can really see the hope of survival after leaving I hope."

"What they see is their great majesty, right? The majesty they love and are loyal to foolishly? Why do they think that the devil is the safest now? Is it because they believe that their majesty is really the real dragon emperor?" Reincarnation? So there is definitely a way to save them from their distress? Sigh, I really can’t understand the thinking of these people.”

Kong Zhu didn't pay attention to what Shisang muttered in a low voice, leaning on his chin with his right hand, he didn't know what he was thinking, and stared at the cushion under Shisang in a daze.

Shi Sang said a few more words, but Kong Zhu still didn't respond, and it was only then that she realized that Kong Zhu was absent-minded.He couldn't help hooking her neck directly, and said dissatisfiedly: "You have been in a daze for the past two days, thinking about something wildly? Could it be that you are so excited that you can't restrain yourself because you are almost in the capital?"

Kong Zhu was dizzy by her shaking, and explained helplessly: "I'm more worried about the southern border..."

"Didn't we arrange it?" Shi Sang was stunned for a moment, puzzled: "There are at least ten thousand elite soldiers stationed at the north gate, and the blockade is tight. Not a single fly will enter Fuxi City."

"But what if the person under the city is your old mother?" Kong Zhu asked back: "You are over seventy years old, and you have worked so hard to raise you. Even if you have a piece of meat, you will leave it to you to eat?" Do I have to get rid of it? It is time for her to entertain her grandchildren and enjoy her old age, but

Up to this point, as a child, don't you feel guilty? "

Shi Sang slowly fell silent, obviously understanding the problem.Kong Zhu continued self-consciously: "Or is it the married couple of your colleagues? Is it your sister-in-law? She treats you like a younger brother, sews you, cooks for you, and gives you things that even your mother can't give you. Warm. You regard her as your own sister, can you do it? Do you have the heart? How can you ignore your elder brother's feelings?"

"How could it be such a coincidence..." Shi Sang murmured.For the first time, she felt that she was still too naive. They were in this situation, and the invisible battlefield was often bloodier and crueler than the real war. They had to prepare for the worst.

Every decision they make now determines the future development trend, and every decision they make determines the life and death of tens of thousands of people.Bearing such a heavy responsibility, if one step goes wrong, it will be a disaster!But how did she do it?Kong Zhu gave these things to her, but she left her a fatal loophole!

"Is there still time for us to go back now?" Shi Sang's voice trembled a little due to the bumping of the carriage.

Kong Zhu silently stared at the land outside the window, and said in a low voice, "It's too late."

Shi Sang pursed his lips tightly, not knowing what to say.

"We walked all the way, and I always felt that something was wrong. There were many traces of fighting in some villages. These villages were almost completely empty, and there were a lot of blood on the ground, as if they had experienced some kind of firefight. It’s not like the whole family moved. There are not many corpses on the ground. It’s not infected with the plague, but it seems to be forcibly taken away.”

Kong Zhu sighed: "I have been thinking for the past few days, who would be interested in a group of old, weak, sick and disabled people who have no combat effectiveness? Aren’t the old women and children here their parents, wives and children?”

"Then make a wedding dress for someone else?" Shi Sang said unwillingly.

"Our speed is not fast. If they can hurry up, they may reach False Creek City the day after tomorrow. We won't be able to go back. Even if we go back, we won't be able to recover.

Although our purpose is different from theirs, at least we all regard those necromancers as aliens.The so-called non-my race must have a different heart, and they will not go too far.After all, the defense of the city depends on those soldiers. If they are all infected with the plague—no, it should be some kind of poison from them—then there is no need for False Creek City. It takes it down. "

"The timing is so accurate, it seems that our whereabouts have been within their expectations. These bastards, they better hope that I will find out who they are later. But whenever I find out, I will let them try Try my game. Ah Zhu, you won't rob me, will you?" Hearing what she said, Shi Sang also gradually calmed down.

Kong Zhu was not interested in her games, he just glanced at her and said indifferently: "No."

"What are you going to do when you return to the magic capital? Go directly to the palace to see the emperor?" Shi Sang watched her reaction with interest.Sure enough, seeing Kong Zhu frowning slightly, it was rare to be a little irritable.

Kong Zhu was about to answer, when the curtain of the car was lifted by Xing Kong from the outside, half of his head came in cautiously: "You two, we can't make it to the post station tonight. There is a small inn in front, and we will be there tonight Rest?"

The crisis had already thought of a countermeasure, and they were not in a hurry, so Shi Sang agreed.

Getting closer to the inn, Shi Sang asked casually: "Which force do you think it will be?"

"Although we have quite a few hostile forces, they are nothing more than small scum. Those who are capable of doing such a thing are only those mere two people."

She didn't mention who it was by name, Shi Sang already understood it.In today's world, apart from the royal family, the only ones who have enmity with them and can have such a big deal are the collaterals who read the heart?

"However, I think that as long as he doesn't take the wrong medicine, he shouldn't bet on his country." Kong Zhu rubbed his chin in thought.

Seeing her serious look, Shi Sang couldn't help but chuckle: "Maybe it's my Azhu who is so charming that the dead emperor is so obsessed that he would rather give up the world and snatch you back?"

Kong Zhu paused the actions of his hands silently, and heard those unbearable past events from Shi Sang's mouth, even though he knew that she didn't know everything, it was just a simple guess.Even though she knew that those memories had been erased by herself, she still couldn't help feeling extremely guilty: "...Do you think it is possible for a person like him to do such a thing?"

Shi Sang carefully thought about the emperor's suspicious character, and Yan Feng and Gu Du, who were forced to rebel by him, couldn't help but sigh: "It seems not."

Kong Zhu twitched the corner of his mouth.Shi Sang hurriedly added, "But maybe, what if that guy is a lunatic! Maybe he hides it too deeply, um, he is actually a lunatic!"

"I think it's Prince Gong who is the leader of the collateral lineage." Kong Zhu objected.

The carriage had already driven to the entrance of the inn, Shi Sang looked up at the eye-catching plaque above the inn: Ping An Inn.

"Arguing is meaningless, why don't we bet? You bet on the offspring, I bet on the emperor?" Shi Sang tempted Kong Zhudao.

Kong Zhu was unmoved, "What's the bet?"

Shi Sang thought hard for a long time, turned several times on his body, and finally took out a gemstone from his waist.The silver-white round crystal looks somewhat similar to the Ethereal Gemstone, but it is smaller than the Ethereal Gemstone: "Here, let's take this as a bet!"

Kong Zhu casually glanced at the ordinary-looking little gem, and said with a smile: "Could it be that all your treasures are left in Fuxi City?"

Shi Sang put away the gem uncomfortably, and put on a vicious look, "I picked it up with my own hands! I don't care, she is the bet! You have to take out your bet!"

"What do you want?" she asked subconsciously.

I want you.Shi Sang almost blurted out.She was silent for a moment, and then said: "If you lose... just accompany me back to the clan to have a look."

"Okay." Kong Zhu agreed.

Xingkong's voice clearly came into the car at this moment: "Here we are."

"Then, the bet will take effect from now on."

The two looked at each other and smiled.Shi Sang looked up at the inn's plaque again, paused for a moment on the word "Ping An", and cursed with a smile on his face, "You idiot who delivered it to your door!"
