Players please close your eyes

Chapter 448 448. Asking for medicine, please come this way

In order to prevent these people from going astray, Qiao Mu specially sent Qiao Mu to guide everyone.

Although they did encounter a little trouble along the way, the enthusiastic and kind-hearted Qiao Mu still forced them to take this path.

Seeing this scene, Qianyun also understood why Qiao Mu said these people would definitely come.

Looking at the scattered remains outside the city, as well as the scorched corpses of evil spirits, Assistant Huijiang, who was wearing a blue robe and asked for medicine, couldn't help but cover his nose with a look of disgust.

General Nanzhou's expression didn't change much. As a soldier, he had seen tragic battlefields and should remain calm.

Xu Fu looked at this with a kind of compassion in his eyes. He knew that the demons were in chaos on the earth and all life was in ruins. Only by asking for the elixir and letting the emperor shock the world could he save the common people.

Despite Qiao Mu's guarantee, the people in the team did not take it lightly. They were still vigilant about their surroundings, worried that evil spirits would suddenly rush out.

"Go this way, go this way."

Qiao Mu, who was leading the way, led everyone through the city gate.

Xu Fu raised his head and saw Qianyun sitting on the wall, and he gave a thank you.

Everyone came to the gate of the government office.

Qiao Mu, who was leading the way, suddenly turned into a hair.

The real Qiao Mu walked out of the yamen, yawning and looking like he had just woken up from a nap.

"Everyone here is dead, and so are the demons. The granary is over there. You can take people to get it."

Qiao Mu pointed to the room on one side.

Nanzhou immediately sent someone to check the condition of the granary.

"His Majesty said before that he would meet noble people on this trip, but he didn't expect it to be true. He is too young to see the truth, so I apologize to you."

Upon seeing this, Hui Jiang knew that these three people had something to do with each other, so he immediately changed his expression and went over to welcome them.

You know, when Qiao Mu sent Qiao Mu to find them, Jiang had been blocking him, saying bad words to Qiao Mu, and was unwilling to let Xu Fu bring people to Mucheng.

"It's okay. I don't remember the faults of villains. There is no need to ask villains to know everything!"

Qiao Mu patted his chest.

"Reporting to your lord, there is indeed a lot of food in the granary, which is enough for our supplies."

At this time, the soldiers sent by Nanzhou to check the granary came back.

Not to mention the government's granary, everything in the entire city belongs to them.

"Take as much as we need next, um, and prepare some more, just in case."

Xu Fu ordered.

In the past, others said that there were no old friends when leaving Yangguan in the west. Now that the team seeking medicine has left the pass, it is the territory of the evil spirits. Let alone food supplies, they will be lucky not to become the food and grass supplies for the evil spirits.

"Can you see other victims around here?"

Xu Fu asked Qiao Mu again.

"There is no one, there is no one for dozens of miles around, they are all dead. Oh, by the way, Tangcheng has been wiped out by Huo Huo, just like here. If there is no problem, we can supply supplies there."

Qiao Mu's clone has already explored Tangcheng ahead. Beyond Tangcheng, there is Fengcheng. Fengcheng is the gate of the country. Beyond Fengcheng, it is an out-of-territory and inaccessible frontier.

Judging from the situation in Tangcheng, Fengcheng may also be in danger.

"Tangcheng too?"

Xu Fu felt dizzy. Although he grew up in a family of officials in the imperial court, he had read poetry and books since he was a child, and always thought about doing well for the people of the world. Only then did he receive the emperor's order to send an envoy to ask for medicine, and now he saw the common people The scene of suffering is naturally heartbreaking.

"Maybe Fengcheng is gone too."

Qiao Mu said casually before he reached Fengcheng.

"In the past, bandits and scavengers would return to the towns destroyed by evil spirits. Now it seems that even these people have suffered."

Nanzhou sighed.

They stayed here for a night, brought the supplies of food and grass they would need next, and left this dead city early the next morning.

The closer we get to the border, the more rugged the road becomes. The surrounding fields are replaced by forests, and in the darkness, the howls of wild beasts can be heard from time to time.

Qianyun would sometimes go in and catch two, but unfortunately, they were just ordinary wild boars and roe deer, not weird-looking monsters.

"There are actually animals in the forest. I thought there would be no grass growing where those evil spirits passed by."

Qiao Mu said while eating roasted wild boar meat.

To be honest, this wild boar meat is not very tasty. It is of low quality and has little fat.

The pork that humans eat is what is left after thousands of years of breeding and selection. It grows quickly, makes you fat, and does not have a serious odor.

As for this kind of pure natural wild boar, as long as it is delicious, it is not unpalatable at all. The smell that penetrates into the meat is enough to make ordinary people who have never been exposed to it make them vomit for a while.

But there is no other way. If you want to eat meat now, you can only do this.

"These evil spirits will attack humans first, while most wild beasts can smell the smell and avoid it in advance. That's why there are so many wild beasts in the forest."

General Nanzhou devoured the meat without frowning at all because of the strange taste in the meat.

"Moreover, attacking a city is enough for these evil spirits to stop doing evil for a long time. Compared with the humans gathered together, these in the forest can only be regarded as scraps."

"General Nanzhou seems to know a lot about evil spirits?"

Kiriyama asked. He didn't eat meat and just looked at the soldiers who were slightly tired after a long day of marching.

"I have fought against evil spirits before. Although they were just a small group of evil spirits who were separated from the larger army, they still injured many of our brothers."

General Nanzhou briefly talked about his past experiences.

Most of the evil spirits only haunt this border fortress, so the task of guarding the border is the most dangerous. Under the emperor's rule, there have been almost no large-scale uprisings or wars in the pass. Under the threat of evil spirits, everyone expects the border troops to be able to Hold on, after all, the opponent is a human. If you can't fight, you can still negotiate. If the opponent is a monster, then they don't care about anything, just have a good time first.

"Actually, there were originally some cities outside the pass, but they were all abandoned due to the invasion of evil spirits. No one dares to go there now."

General Nanzhou said again.

For a city in this era, being invaded by evil spirits would result in a massacre. If it weren't for the fact that it couldn't survive, ordinary people would not continue to live here. Today there are five cities, tomorrow there are ten cities, and it is inevitable that the territory will shrink in the end.

"Are you afraid?"

Qianyun suddenly asked.

"Fear is natural, who can not be afraid?"

General Nanzhou smiled, tore off another piece of wild boar meat, chewed it twice and swallowed it into his stomach.

"But if you really get the elixir, you may be able to honor your ancestors. Maybe your majesty will be happy and just give us some, so we can take advantage of it."

He is very practical.

"really."

Qiao Mu glanced at Qianyun and motioned for her to step aside.

"What's wrong?"

Qianyun didn't know why.

Qiao Mu turned around, glanced at General Nanzhou and others who were warming themselves by the fire, and asked curiously.

"In your memory, is there such a person around the First Emperor?"

"he?"

Qianyun also glanced at General Nanzhou.

"do not know."
