When Fenzhou governor heard this, he wanted to wipe his sweat again. It's already October, the Northland is full of frost, and the cold wind is tight. People standing outside are full of white air in their breath. The Fenzhou governor wrapped himself in one layer after another. Even so, he still oozes fine sweat from his forehead.

The Fenzhou provincial governor said: "The commander to forgive sins is not because the ministers are arrogantly talking about their power, but this? Something strange really happened in the village. This? The village is called Turtleback Village, and the people in the village rely on farming for their livelihoods. It’s nothing. A special place. Three months ago, someone suddenly fell ill in Turtle Village. At first, we thought it was typhoid fever and didn’t take it seriously. Later, people died in the village one after another, and the minister was afraid of the plague, so they immediately sent people to Turtle Village. I closed the road and sent a doctor to see a doctor here. But how many ministers sent? No one found out? What kind of disease is this, but the doctor also died. The minister has no choice but to transfer? Soldiers, the tortoises Surrounded by the village? Throw medicinal materials and dry food in it every day, but the people inside are not allowed to come out. The minister thought? Wait until the weather becomes colder and colder, and let the epidemic pass through. Who knows later?..."

Fenzhou governor seemed to think of something terrible, and his body trembled. The Fenzhou provincial governor said it nicely, but after sending soldiers to seal the village, it was the intention of letting the villagers fend for themselves. In this era when even typhoid fever can kill people, it is found that the plague is really helpless and can only control the source of infection, anyway not to let the epidemic spread. Li Chaoge did not pursue the behavior of the Fenzhou governor to seal the village, but asked: "What happened later?"

Fenzhou Governor’s eyes widened, his face was full of horror, and his lips trembled and said: "Later, a soldier got up at night and saw the dead in the village stand up."

The people behind him inhaled one after another, and the dead stood up? One? The officer rubbed the goose bumps on his body and couldn't help but ask: "Chairman, are you sure you are not mistaken?"

"It can't be wrong!" Fenzhou municipal governor took out a veil from his sleeve, and shivered while wiping cold sweat. "I thought at first? They didn't wake up, they were dazzled, and they scolded them. A meal. But the people in the army were panicking, and the corpse was spread everywhere in a few days. To calm people's hearts, the minister took the master and a few guards and hid quietly in the grass. The minister wanted to personally. To calm the rumors, I didn't expect..."

Fenzhou Governor's pupils dilated, and he pointed to the open space at the entrance of the village with a look of horror, and said: "Unexpectedly, the minister saw the corpse here with his own eyes and sat up by himself?"

In front of the entrance of Turtle Village is a large open space, and you can leave the village through the open space. Usually the villagers dried rice and drove the temple fair here. Later, too many people died in Turtle Village, and they were brought here before they could bury them. Now, there are still many stretchers and white cloths in the clearing, but the corpses inside are gone.

Li Chaoge looked at the empty space from a distance, and asked, "Where did those corpses go?"

"Where is the minister? Dare to see!" Fenzhou provincial governor collapsed. "The minister saw those dead people sitting up? He was so frightened that he ran back to the camp with his master. At the dawn of the next day, the minister hurried to send someone to the camp. The road out of the village was blocked with sacks and rubbish, and people raised the wall of Turtle Village. The minister had used Taoist priests to do the method, but it was of no use. I heard from the soldiers on patrol that the people in Turtle Village were more and more at night. Come? More and more, they stood in a row and circled the village constantly, and they didn’t know what they wanted to do. The minister burned, flooded, and sprinkled dog blood. They tried everything, but they didn’t work. The minister was really helpless, just Can I ask the court for reinforcements."

Looking at the trembling look of the Fenzhou Governor, Li Chaoge can fully imagine that they must be so scared when they saw the dead sitting up that day. How can they? Have the courage to pay attention to his details. Li Chaoge walked slowly toward the village entrance with his hands behind his back.

The Fenzhou municipal governor yelled "Commander" in a panic. Li Chaoge was not moved. She stood by the stone, looked into the village through the gap, and looked down at the edge of the stone. Fenzhou Governor’s heart was raised in his throat, then? But the dead swindled the corpse, maybe that? Some things are hidden behind the stone, Sheng Yuan Gong? Is the Lord not afraid?

Li Chaoge took a bit of soil on the stone, put it on the tip of his nose and sniffed it. Zhou Shao followed? and asked, "Commander, is there any mystery in it?"

"I don't know." Li Chaoge took out his veil, wiped his fingers clean, and instructed the people in the town demon division behind him, "Take a sample of the stone here and receive it in the evidence box."

The people from the Town Demon Division responded and immediately began to collect evidence. Fenzhou Governor looked at these people's actions, a little surprised by the courage of these people, and a little afraid that they would collapse the stone. Li Chaoge left the intersection and walked along the path to the side of the wall.

Li Chaoge was the lord, and he was an imperial commissioner sent by Dongdu. The Fenzhou governor did not dare to let Li Chaoge commit the danger alone, so he had the courage to follow him. Li Chaoge walked around the wall for a while, but it was a pity that the wall was raised by the governor of Fenzhou. People stood outside and couldn't see the inside of the village clearly. Li Chaoge asked: "I think it's quiet inside. They only move around at night?"

Fenzhou governor nodded: "Yes. As soon as the sun comes out? They don't know where they are going, so Yichen dare to send troops to raise the wall."

"In other words, did you see the people who died of the plague sitting up? And walking around the village, but when daylight came, they disappeared. Didn't they?"

The Fenzhou provincial governor nodded vigorously: "The commander is wise. The minister invited a lot of Taoist priests to cast spells, and even invited a Miao warrior. But at night, their activities should be activities, and according to the guards. The soldier said, there are more and more people walking around at night."

Li Chaoge asked: "There are still people in the village? Are there any living people?"

Fenzhou Governor shook his head like a quail. Li Chaoge glanced at him and said coldly: "No, or? Don't you know?"

The Fenzhou provincial governor chuckled: "The ministers don't know. However, the village is like this. Even if there are living people, they can't be released?"

When Fenzhou governor ordered the closure of the village, most of the villagers were already infected. The governor locked them in the village and allowed them to fend for themselves. At that time, many people were already dead in the village, and the road was blocked again, and they could only be carried to the open space. Later, when the soldiers at night accidentally saw the dead activities, everyone was frightened. Turtle Village was reinforced layer by layer, and the road out of the village was completely blocked. Later, the Fenzhou governor asked someone to cast the spell and sent someone to sprinkle dog blood. After so long, there is still no movement inside, and most of them are no living people.

Through the walls, one can see the roofs of the village, one after another, including thatched houses and brick houses. Li Chaoge asked: "Have you searched in the village?"

The Fenzhou governor wiped his sweat and said in embarrassment, "No. Even the most daring soldiers dare not go in. No one knows what the village looks like now."

Li Chaoge nodded. She seemed to see almost, left the wall, turned and walked in the other direction. The governor of Fenzhou has a fat body. He followed Li Chaoge, already exhausted and sweating profusely, but the other party was the diva's son-in-law, so he didn't dare not stay with him, so he wiped off his sweat and caught up with him breathlessly.

Li Chaoge only wore a black uniform with a cloak. The whole person was tall and slender, as light as a swallow, and soon climbed up a small hill. Standing at the top, Li Chaoge raised his hand to block the sun and looked into Turtle Village. The village was quiet, and there was no one in his eyes, and the dead body in the mouth of Fenzhou governor could not be seen at all at this moment. Compared with Dongdu, these farmhouses’ yards are messy and simple, but they are full of life. Farming tools and pots are hung on the walls, and many people still have bacon hanging under the eaves. As if the host’s family just went out for two days, he would push the door back soon.

It doesn't look like one at all? The villages suffering from the plague give people a feeling that their days are still? They feel as usual, but the villagers are not active in the daytime.

Fenzhou governor huffed his breath and finally climbed up. The Fenzhou governor kept wiping his sweat with his kerchief, and said in a breathless tone: "The commander is not as light as a swallow, and he can't walk anymore. Commander, what are you looking at? "

Li Chaoge raised his eyes and looked towards Si Zhou. Under my feet is an endless field, the cultivated land is empty and there is no farming, and there are dead branches and stalks piled on the side of the fields. In the west, the setting sun was sinking all the way, and the vast wind swept across the yellow ground, and the setting sun seemed particularly round.

Li Chaoge suddenly asked, "What is this? What is Turtleback Village?"

The Fenzhou governor was breathing hard. Hearing Li Chaoge's words, he was taken aback and replied: "Return to the commander, because? Our terrain here is special. It looks like a turtle from a distance. This? The village happens to be on the back of the turtle. Go, so it’s called Turtle Village."

Li Chaoge nodded slightly: "So? So. Where is the head of the tortoise?"

"Fenzhou."

Li Chaoge hummed, turned his head and walked down the hill. Fenzhou municipal governor just climbed up, he watched his father walk briskly, and disappeared in a blink of an eye. He sighed resignedly, and hurried down to chase him: "The command makes you slow down."

Li Chaoge came up and down the hill? He returned, his face remained unchanged, and his breath was not messed up at all. The Fenzhou governor was out of breath, chasing after Li Chaoge, and constantly exonerating himself: "Commander, do you really want to? Observe, the minister has tried every method, and there is really no way to deal with these weird things. Wait for you in the future. Back to the Eastern Capital, please tell me something for the minister before the saint heaven."

Li Chaoge had no expression on his face, and he didn't even want to pay attention to him. When she walked to the entrance of the village, the people from the Town Demon Division saw Li Chaoge and immediately surrounded him?: "Commander, the evidence has been collected."

Li Chaoge glanced at it and saw that there was no problem, so he said, "Take things away and keep them properly."

"Yes."

The Fenzhou governor saw these people with a strange look, as if the resurrection of the dead was not a big deal at all. Fenzhou Governor was a little scared, and asked tentatively: "Commander, what are you going to do next?"

"Naturally, to find out the truth." Li Chaoge stared at Turtle Village and said in a calm tone, "I want to see for myself tonight, how is the dead? The method of resurrection."

Fenzhou provincial governor was shocked and blurted out: "The commander can't. You are a daughter, how can you commit danger with your own body?"

Li Chaoge glanced back at him, and asked calmly, "Then? Are you coming for me?"

Fenzhou governor got stuck for a while, his face flushed, and he couldn't speak for a moment. Li Chaoge snorted and said, "If it's okay, you can go away."

Fenzhou governor was full of pig liver color, but he still left in a daunting manner. Previously, when Fenzhou governor sent people to seal the village, he had left the army stationed there. Later, after the corpse was raised, most of the army was scared away. Fortunately, the original tent was still left, and only a few soldiers remained on patrol in the camp, but they were so scared that they dared not leave the door at night. After Li Chaoge and others arrived, they greeted Li Chaoge into the main account tremblingly. After that, they didn't dare to say much. As soon as it got dark, they rushed back to their tent.

Seeing them running away, it seemed as if one step later would be taken away by ghosts. Zhou Shao really doesn't like these scams? He said: "Commander, this is too messy, and the subordinates will clean it up for you."

"No need." Li Chaoge raised his hand, stopped Zhou Shao's movements, and said, "It's time to settle down. Anyway, I won't be here tonight. It's not necessary? It's wasted. You find a free tent, rest for a while, and stay in the middle of it. Assemble and enter the village."

"Yes."

The winter days are short, and soon it gets dark. The night was dark and heavy on the horizon, and there was no farming in the plowing field? It was barren and cold, and the wind rolled across the wilderness, making a whining sound.

Listen carefully, the wind outside seems to be crying. The soldiers who were forced to stay in the camp shrank together, covering their ears and shivering. At this moment, the lamp of the main account shook, and suddenly went out silently.

How many people were already standing at the entrance of the camp, Li Chaoge randomly clicked the number of people, and whispered: "Go."

"Yes."

Li Chaoge had been optimistic about the terrain during the day. At this moment, she was walking on the ground in the dark, and soon returned to the entrance of Turtleback Village. She looked at the rubble that rose high up, and gently turned her toes over.

Others also turned over from the fence one after another, they drew out their swords, formed a wild goose, and walked cautiously towards the village. Li Chaoge stood at the center, slowly placing her hand on the hilt of the Qianyuan sword, carefully scanning the surroundings with her eyes.

Suddenly someone shouted: "Be careful." Everyone immediately turned around and saw the end of the dark dirt road, slowly coming over? A? "Man". He staggered, his limbs were stiff, and there were spots of corpses on his skin. The cold wind dissipated the clouds, and the moon came out from behind the clouds. Then everyone could see clearly that he had his eyes open.

Even the people of the town monsters who have killed monsters several times feel the creeps. If this person closes his eyes and does not move, he will look like a dead person. But now, like a toddler, he staggered in the empty village.

Zhou Shao strained secretly and reminded: "Commander, there are still others behind."

This? The man seemed to be the first one, and he followed one after another. There were many people, including men, women and children. They opened their eyes, but their pupils were greatly dilated. They moved in one direction, their mouths opened slightly, as if they were chanting.

Someone in the team cursed lowly and said, "What the **** is this, are they still talking?"

Following these words, the wandering villagers suddenly changed the path of travel as if they found something out of the ordinary, and walked towards them blankly. The people from the Town Demon Division saw this kind of battle for the first time, and couldn't help being scared back. The muscles on Zhou Shao's arm were tense and swelled up like a small hill. Zhou Shao asked, "Commander, what's next?"

Li Chaoge pulled out the Qianyuan sword silently, her eyes were sharp, bright as a torch in the night. Li Chaoge scanned the group of walking corpses in front of him, and reminded: "Don't touch their limbs, beware of corpses."

The four-week-old hurriedly responded. One man had the courage and stepped forward and cut the villager with a knife. The person who was slashed looked like a young man in his twenties. His skin became very soft, and it sank as soon as he touched the knife, and half of his arm was cut off by the knife. With his arm collapsed to the ground, the villager staggered and fell to the ground.

The people from the Town Demon Division heaved a long sigh of relief, as long as they could be hacked to death? But before they relax for too long, the man who was chopped up stands up again, dragging half of his stumped arm, staggering towards the attacker. The other villagers did not seem to be able to see the broken limbs on the ground, and stepped on the ground blankly, staring at the people of the town demon division with their hollow eyes.

The town demon division only came to eight people, but one village had hundreds of households. The Town Demon Division was quickly surrounded by villagers. At this moment, someone suddenly raised his arm, pointed at the town Demon Division’s person and said, "Poor, suffer..."

These villagers have been dead for several days, and their bodies are all decayed. What they say is intermittent and unsatisfactory. Zhou Shao faintly heard some words like "suffering". In this situation, a group of dead people surrounded them, and they murmured to them, whoever wanted them? Goose bumps all over his body. Zhou Shao cursed, frowned vigorously, and asked, "What are they talking about?"

Zhou Shao didn't understand, but Li Chaoge had good ears and caught everything. Li Chaoge said: "They feel that we are suffering alive and want to save us."

Zhou Shao's scalp was numb, and he blurted out, "What?"

Following Zhou Shao's words, the crowd on the opposite side suddenly became excited, stretched out their arms and rushed towards them. Li Chaoge yelled to be careful, raised his leg and kicked a villager, swept a large area with a hard kick. A gap was briefly cleared in the encirclement, and Li Chaoge immediately stepped forward, clearing the road while shouting behind him: "Be careful to keep up, don't be scratched by them."

The remaining few people in the Town Demon Division back to back, followed Li Chaoge closely, and broke through outside. At the beginning, they cut off half of the villager's arm with a sword, and they felt that these dead people looked terrifying, but they weren't really scary. But after a few steps, they knew that they underestimated the enemy.

Most of the villagers’ flesh and bones were rotten and vulnerable, but some of them had black skin and were invulnerable. The sharp long knife slashed on the opponent's body, and even the oily skin was not scratched. Everyone looked at it, and their hearts couldn't help feeling frustrated. At this time, the benefits of Zhou Shao's strength were revealed. He wrapped his fist with cloth and blasted a head with one punch. Li Chaoge opened the way in the front, he followed behind and headshot, and the two of them quickly cleared a path of blood.

The people from the Town Demon Division hurriedly followed, they followed behind with the knife in their hands, and when they saw a gap, how many fishes could escape the net. Gradually, those around them became impenetrable iron corpses. Later, some villagers who lacked arms and legs followed Wu Yangyang, and perseveringly wanted to "rescue" them.

Zhou Shao punched the villager's temple with a fist, and the headshot tricks that had never been unfavorable in the past did not work at this moment. That? The villager? Without moving his head, he slowly turned his eyes, looked at Zhou Shao, and suddenly roared.

Everyone was backed by the impact of this sound wave. Zhou Shao retracted his hand, frowning and moving his numb wrist. Zhou Shao was born? Strong, a fist can beat a boulder into powder, but he hit the opponent's weakest temple just now, but he was shocked and his joints ached.

What are these corpses, so weird? The town demon Siqi? Others couldn't move either. They slashed at the opponent, and the opponent was unscathed. Instead, their blades curled up. In a short period of time, several people have already scrapped their long knives.

No one knows what happens when they are scratched by a corpse. Once they lose their weapon superiority, the consequences will be disastrous.

Li Chaoge and his party fought and retreated, slowly walking into an alleyway. Li Chaoge looked around for four weeks and made a bold decision: "Enter the house."

Several people in the Town Demon Division were shocked when they heard this: "What?"

These villagers are invulnerable, neither painful nor tired. All of them are surrounded by people to fight so hard. If they walk into the villagers’ house, wouldn’t they just throw themselves into the net? Li Chaoge was very resolute and said: "They distinguish people by breath. We have so many living people together, and the blood is too heavy. The village was sealed long ago, and the people in the village are limited. So many people are on the road, then? There should be no one in the house. Two pairs of two groups, hide in an empty room, communicate with each other with a secret code, lead them in circles, and then each one defeats them."

Although Li Chaoge's decision was bold, it was not unfounded. At this moment, there was no other choice, and the crowd formed a team in twos and threes and quickly hid in the farmyard. Li Chaoge quickly said to Zhou Shao: "You stay? Take care of them, I will go to the roof to have a look."

After speaking, Li Chaoge was like a swan, and flew into the air as soon as he turned around. Zhou Shao took another person and hid in the thatch. Just as they hid it, they saw a black shadow on the opposite roof flashing past, and disappearing in a flash.

The mighty army of iron corpses suddenly lost their target, and the breath of strangers was everywhere, but each one was very weak and constantly changing. They followed the breath, stumbled, and dispersed after a while.

I don't know if Zhou Shao's luck is good or not? There are "people" in the yard where they are hiding. That? It was a little girl who was fourteen and five. She opened the door and came out stiffly to sweep the yard. She picked up the broom from the corner, suddenly tilted her head, and sniffed in confusion.

Why does she feel? Feeling a strange atmosphere in the yard.

This young woman is not as evolving as the iron corpse outside, no matter the sense of smell or the speed of reaction. She took a broomstick and walked towards the place where Zhou Shao and two people were hiding. Zhou Shao gestured to the other person, and the two of them stood on tiptoes and hid quietly to the opposite side. The young woman is very confused. Why is the smell strange? Why will it be in the east and the west? She walked towards the back with the broom, Zhou Shao and the two ran back again, just like playing peekaboo, trying to avoid the corpse.

Another person wiped his sweat. He grew up so old and had never played such a terrible hide-and-seek. The two of them gradually figured out the rules, and the two of them cooperated with each other, but they could also hang the young girl. But before he could breathe a sigh of relief, the door was suddenly pushed open.

An iron-blue "person" stood at the door, looking like this young girl's father. It was him who was unscathed by Zhou Shao's full punch just now.

After the young girl’s father came in, he didn’t know what he said to the young girl. His dark eyes swept across the courtyard and suddenly came in one direction. Zhou Shao leaned against the stack of firewood, clenched his fists unknowingly.

Another person unknowingly pressed on the handle of the knife, his heart was very heavy, and they should be unlucky, which one to enter? The yard is not good, but into this? Iron Corpse's nest. All the people just now couldn't beat this? Iron Corpse, they only had two people, wouldn't they be sent to death?

Blue veins bulged on Zhou Shao's neck, and when he was about to rush out to fight to the death, a light flashed faintly on the opposite side, and then, a burst of air broke through the night sky, and a whirr fell into the chest of the iron corpse. Zhou Shao poked his head out from behind the haystack in surprise. He couldn't see the arrow at all, but the iron corpse that was still invulnerable just now froze in place, and the iron-blue skin quickly degraded, and finally turned into rotten flesh, booming. Fell to the ground with a sound.

Zhou Shao looked up and saw a woman standing with a bow and arrow on the opposite beam. Black clouds flowed quickly behind her, and the moon appeared from time to time. She was slender with the light behind her back, like a goddess of murder.
