The demon world I designed

Chapter 87 Traces of family members.

Nanyang City:

The seven continents along the Yangtze River have now been attacked, but to say which state capital has suffered the most violent attack, it is Nanyang City!

Since Nanyang was attacked by living zombies, the counterattack was the most direct and swift. Facing the evil spirits, the Shen family deployed many defensive techniques outside the city and wiped out the first wave of tens of thousands of living corpses with almost no effort. Clean.

For a time, Hong Rui, the commander-in-chief stationed here, breathed a sigh of relief.

There is no other reason than that he has no soldiers and lacks confidence!

Nanyang has the largest area in the Seven Continents, but has the smallest imperial garrison. Firstly, it reflects the trust in the Shen family, and secondly, it is because there is no need for it.

No matter whether it is foreign forces or bandits, no one dares to cause trouble in the Shen family's territory.

But because of this, Nanyang is now in the most embarrassing situation.

On the top of the city, looking at the group of living corpses receding like a sea due to the rising sun, Hong Rui almost sat down on the ground with his feet weak. Different from the sigh of relief when he was attacked by the first wave at night, At this time, he felt a strong sense of fear.

Not to mention him, even the Shen family on the top of the city were feeling frightened.

The number is too exaggerated.

Just looking at the corpses under the city, it can be seen that there are countless living corpses killed by the Shen family's magic at this time. They are piled up like mountains of meat. It looks quite spectacular, especially the last wave at night. Hong Rui visually inspected At least 200,000 people!

The overwhelming black crowd was like a tidal wave rolling in. I was so scared that I almost peed!

It's pitiful for me. Although he is from the Hong family, he has never been on the battlefield because of the pampering of his elders. His family helped him to get the job to Jiangnan, just to let him hang around for a few years to gain local qualifications so that he could have an excuse. Jingcheng also received a sinecure of high rank.

Unlike Yu Chipeng who was sent to Jiangnan to suppress him because he was too outstanding, he is the kind who really has no ability.

After all, a capable court would not let the Shen family's territory go.

"Thank you, Commander-in-Chief." A hoarse voice came from an elegant middle-aged man sitting in a wheelchair with a pale face. He was none other than the third eldest son of the Shen family: Shen Yimiao.

"Now that the corpses have receded, would you like to go back to the city and take a rest?"

"It's not in the way, it's not in the way," Hong Rui said with a reluctant smile, which sounded quite guilty.

What's so hard about him?

I spent the whole night watching a play last night. Although the play was a bit thrilling, it didn't have anything to do with him.

"Mr. Shen San." Hong Rui swallowed and said, "In this situation, do we need to ask the court for reinforcements?"

In the land of Nanyang, the imperial court stationed 500 soldiers for a symbolic purpose. Since there was basically no risk, joining the army was equivalent to dawdling around and getting military pay. Those who could enter the Nanyang military camp were almost all related households, so how could they have any combat power?

Yesterday, the people on the city wall were even worse than themselves. As early as the third wave, they were so scared that they ran off the city wall. According to military law, they all had to be executed!

The Shen family's magic array looks really powerful, but if it stays the same as it did yesterday, I'm afraid it won't work!

"Ask for help?" Shen San smiled bitterly and shook his head: "It would be great if I could ask for help."

Yesterday, the Qinglong inheritance appeared, and the six heads of the Shen family came out. They ended up wandering around in the white mist for a long time. Some of the mysteries inside were simply unbelievable. The six heads tried their best and couldn't get out of the fog. In the end, they had to When I came back dejected, the heroic words I made before setting off became a joke.

But now it seems that the white mist is not a method of the imperial court. It remains to be seen whether it belongs to Yundu.

"In that case, I will go back and rest first." Shen San smiled and said, "If anything happens, please inform the general in time."

"Okay, okay, thank you for your hard work, Mr. Shen San, I'll see you off."

"No need to bother. General, please find some time to take a rest. After all, you have been standing all night."

"Hey, hey, where?" Hong Rui waved his hands guiltily.

Shen Yimiao was not too polite. Several metal claws appeared on the wheelchair, like eight-legged spiders, and he jumped off the city wall in front of everyone in an extremely weird way.

Hong Rui could see that Shen Yimiao was not going back to rest. He was clearly going to the other side of the river to join the leaders who had just chased him.

He didn't care about this. He also knew that although he had the title of Commander-in-Chief, he was not qualified to participate in Nanyang's city defense battle. Now he should think about what he should do if the Shen family couldn't hold it back. Use excuses to escape without being held accountable by superiors.

And it seems that he can't escape alone now, because he still has an errand to run.

About half a month ago, I came back from doing business in the north. I was greeted by a letter from my brother Hong Lie, who escorted a civil servant's family to the south of the Yangtze River. At that time, I was just having fun, so I took a detour on the Lijiang waterway. However, I didn’t expect that I would be trapped as soon as I arrived in Nanyang.

It was good now. If those terrifying living corpses rushed into the city yesterday, would it be possible for me to leave those country women and children behind and run away?

Will the eldest brother break his own leg? After all, the letter said very carefully that he must be escorted. He said that the man named Chen was a close friend of the Hong family. He was the kind of person who could save the eldest brother's life. He must make good arrangements for his family.

But if I carry those burdens with me, I'm afraid I'll have to end up in Nanyang with my ability as a three-legged cat.

Why.

Thinking of the bitter look on Hong Rui's face, he could only pray to the Shen family for help. After all, they were a family of sorcerers for thousands of years.

——

"Third brother is here?"

At this time, several heads of the Shen family were by the river, carefully observing the retreating living corpses.

"Do you see the trick?" Shen Laosan said.

"These living corpses are controlled by insects."

The person who spoke was none other than the current patriarch of the Shen family: Shen Yixin.

"insect?"

"Third brother, look." Shen Yixin took out a transparent box. In the box were a few white nematodes as small as hair.

"Are these from living corpses?"

"Yes." Lao Qi next to him said sadly: "These living corpses will lose their ability to move only if their bodies are completely exploded or their brains are damaged. We thought it was strange at the time. After careful observation later, we found that after the living corpses lost their movement, This kind of bug will come out of the sky!"

"Insects control the corpse." Shen Laosan frowned, suddenly remembering something, his eyelids twitched!

"Third brother remembered something, right?" Shen Yixin said quietly.

"Ah, father." Shen Laosan suddenly remembered that there was a time when the ancestor of the Shen family, that is, his father seemed to be crazy about experiments, using Gu insects to control living people. The experiments at that time were too crazy, and he remembered that he died There are tens of thousands of people in the experiment!

If it weren't for my mother's persuasion before she died, my father might have continued.

It was under this background that Lao Jiu was born. He claimed to be a poison warlock, but he was actually an insect warlock!

"Could these things be father?" Lao Twelve asked in surprise.

"Shut up!" Lao San gave a rare and stern scolding.

There are probably hundreds of thousands of living corpses coming ashore. Looking at the waves, we don’t know how many are hidden in the water. The initial estimate is that they are in the millions. If the ancestor had done such a thing, , no matter how powerful they are, they will probably be treated as monsters in the world, and the Shen family will also be pushed to the top!

"Third brother, the matter is more serious than imagined." Shen Yixin held the transparent box and said: "These insects, when encountering flesh and blood, can magically split into millions, completely change the structure of living people, and forcibly transform ordinary people into monsters ”

"Isn't this just like that insect demon?" Lao Twelve curled his lips.

"It's different." Shen Yixin shook his head: "It is much more troublesome than the insect demon. The insect demon simply controls living people and uses them as containers, but this thing is changing living people and directly turning them into demons. And because of this terrifying split Ability, I am afraid that these living corpses are extremely contagious, and if they are caught or bitten, there is a risk of becoming such a monster. "

When Shen Laosan heard this, his pupils shrank and he looked towards the river suddenly.

"It seems that Third Brother has also thought of it." Shen Yixin looked at the river quietly and said: "The river in Nanyang Prefecture connects more than 70 counties. They are all densely populated places with more than a million living people."

Shen Laosan: "."

After a while of silence, the third child finally spoke: "Let's act separately and try to protect as much as possible. Secondly, this matter has nothing to do with my father. Any rumors about this must be erased!"

"It's natural." Shen Yixin also had a ruthless look in his eyes. Even if the people from Nanyang died this time, he couldn't let this matter have anything to do with his father!

——

"Sir, do you need my help?"

In the Liuzhou Mansion Yamen, looking at Chen Qing who was about to lead the team in person, Chen Ying took the initiative to step forward and asked.

"Just take advantage of what I gave you." Chen Qing glanced at Chen Ying: "You can't be of much help right now."

Chen Ying: "."

Does this guy always speak so irritatingly?

"Then why do you want to take me out of the city with you again?"

"I'm afraid you'll die in the city!" Chen Qing rolled his eyes at the other party: "Have you forgotten that Shen Laojiu is still hiding in the city and I'm not here? Do you think he will come to find you?"

Chen Ying trembled all over after hearing this. She still remembers clearly how the ninth son of the Shen family was hiding in the dark on the boat and looking at her!

"I don't know why." Chen Qing frowned and said, "The ninth son of the Shen family seems to be very obsessed with you."

"To me?" Chen Ying was stunned, but then she felt strange. When Shen Laojiu faced so many people in the merchant ship, why did Shen Laojiu only want herself?

Just as he was talking, a cute voice suddenly came.

"Daddy."

Chen Ying, who was about to ask a question, was stunned for a moment. She turned around and felt cute in her heart. What a beautiful child.

Uh, no, he just called daddy?

Does this person named Chen have children?

Chen Ying felt inexplicably uncomfortable.

"Are you awake?" Chen Qing suddenly smiled gently.

He also figured that the ghost baby should wake up in the next two days, so he would be more confident that he would stay in Liuzhou during this trip.

"Sir." Wei Gongcheng came from outside the door: "Everyone has been brought here, should we call them in now?"

Wei Gongcheng didn't understand why he had to choose who should follow him out and who should stay. Is it necessary?

"Yes." Chen Qing calmly put the mirror in her arms on the desk in front of her and said calmly: "Call in."

This little move was nothing to others, but Chen Ying on the side was slightly startled.

Why does that mirror look familiar?
