Chapter 225 [The Sky Changes] (1)
Old Yu was unwilling to leave. As for Tan Zicong, he was still in a sleepy state and he didn't know when he would wake up. Before he woke up, he was destined to bring him with him. In this way, only Song Changjin clearly stated that he wanted to leave.
Luo Lie thought Song Changjin would still change his mind like he had just now, but he didn't expect that Song Changjin's idea of leaving this time was quite firm. Before leaving, Song Changjin called Luo Lie away from the crowd and whispered: "You and my uncle and nephew are in a fight, and I still want to say something to you."
Luo Lie smiled and said, "Uncle San just say it, I'll listen carefully."
Song Changjin said: "Water can carry a boat and can also overturn it. That thing should be of some benefit to your body, but the trouble will be quite large. If I got such a thing, I would never use it on myself."
Luo Lie said: "Does the third uncle hide anything from me?"
Song Changjin sighed and said, "It's useless to say it. In short, you're careful in everything. Although we escaped from the Tian Temple, it doesn't mean that all the troubles in the Tian Temple are over."
Luo Lie nodded. He vaguely guessed what Song Changjin meant. This wisdom heart stone should bring him a lot of trouble. He said to Song Changjin: "Uncle San, you will have no care if you leave alone, so it is better..."
Song Changjin smiled and said, "It's rare that you still care about me, uncle." He reached out and patted Luo Lie on the shoulder and said, "I have suffered many disasters since I was a child. Although I am not as lucky as you, it's not that bad. I don't have the courage to deal with you with the zombie army. I'm old, I still have family to take care of. Let's have a good time. If you are destined, there will be a day to meet." He hugged Luo Lie, turned around and left.
Tiewa looked at Song Changjin's figure as he left, and muttered a coward. In his opinion, Song Changjin was obviously not a hero, and he actually abandoned his companions who had been alive and dead at such a critical moment.
Ma Yongping had not closed his eyes for several nights. The news from outside made him unable to sleep or eat. He formed an alliance with Tadashi Fujino and sent Zhou Wenhu to lead an elite army of more than a thousand people to the Xixia Royal Tomb area for missions. However, he did not expect that the army suddenly disappeared strangely, and even Tadashi Fujino lost his whereabouts for no reason.
He deliberately released the news that Yan Tianxin was captured again to Hongshizhai, leading the Hongshizhai's troops to the old camp. Although the plan was perfect, it was not going smoothly in reality. According to the front line, sandstorms were scraped off in the Tengri area, which made the horse's travel extremely difficult. At present, only Hongshizhai sent a team of 500 people to rescue Yan Tianxin, but the specific process was not clear.
After he decisively implemented a clearance plan and a curfew on Xinmanying, no new epidemic occurred in the city. Ma Yongping hoped that his bad luck would pass, but he knew that the reality would not be so ideal. Even if he could clean up all the infected people in the city, there were still a large number of virus carriers wandering outside the city, and it was difficult for those wanderers to understand them all.
The adjutant knocked on the door and walked in. He reported the latest information to Ma Yongping, but there was still not much progress. The best news was that the damaged Ximen had been urgently repaired, and the city wall of Xinmanying was restored to complete, and they immediately restored their full control of the city.
Ma Yongping said: "How is the situation in the city?"
The adjutant said: "The people's emotions have now stabilized. According to the general's order, a carpet-style search is still being carried out throughout the city, striving not to let any infected person miss the net."
Ma Yongping nodded, sat on the Grand Master's chair, rubbing his eyebrows in pain, repeating this action for a while, and then said, "Is there any news about my sister?"
The adjutant shook his head: "Not yet, but rumors began to be heard in the army..."
Ma Yongping made a stop gesture, and he didn't want the adjutant to repeat the rumors that gave him a headache. To be precise, it was not rumors. Some people are saying that he used Ma Yongqing to exchange for Yan Tuojiang's trust and then took the opportunity to seize military power. This is actually an open secret. For this reason, he just killed three more communicators, but Ma Yongping also understood one truth that such things cannot be completely covered up.
Thunder sounded outside. Ma Yongping stood up and slowly came to the window. He stretched out his arm and pushed open the window hard. A strong wind came from outside. The sky that was just clear just now had turned black purple. The thick clouds completely covered the blue sky. Ma Yongping looked up at the sky and said with some wonder: "Is it going to rain?" Ganbian Shaoyu, even in summer.
The adjutant said: "It seems that it is going to rain."
The city wall damaged by the west gate of Xinman Camp has been repaired. More than a hundred migrant workers are busy under the dark clouds and strong winds, carrying out the final cleaning and finishing work. Not far behind them, a group of soldiers are patrolling back and forth. The reason why the city wall is damaged is because Ma Yongping ordered artillery bombardment and used artillery fire to knock all the soldiers infected with zombie virus to ashes. In extraordinary times, extraordinary methods are required. Nanyang Street also uses the same method. The most prosperous street in Xinman Camp in the past has now become a piece of rubble. I don’t know when to wait for repair.
The cleaning work on both sides was carried out almost simultaneously, but the repair of the city wall in the West Gate was placed in the first place. After all, the city wall was the first line of defense for Xinmanying. Only by blocking the gap in the city wall can the possible dangers outside the city wall be isolated from the city wall as soon as possible.
Chang Huaixin was responsible for the alert of the West Gate. He was sure that the repair project was going smoothly. He inspected the surrounding area of the West Gate and could be concluded that all infected people were killed by artillery fire. Chang Huaixin breathed a sigh of relief and walked along the steps towards the city tower at the West Gate. Standing on the city tower, looking up at the distance, he saw that the world in the distance had become blurred. Experience told him that a sandstorm must have been scraped at the place where the heaven and earth were intersecting. The clouds in the sky turned from purple to black, thick like ink that could not be melted.
Chang Huaixin sighed from the bottom of his heart, walked out of the corner gate of the city tower, and walked towards the city wall. There were three craftsmen on the city wall doing the final repair work. When Chang Huaixin passed by one of them, he heard a familiar voice calling his name.
Chang Huaixin was shocked. He did not agree, and did not even look at the person who called him. Instead, he turned around first, looked at the guard who followed him angrily and said, "What are you doing with me? Let me calm down!"
The guard turned back to the city tower in fear.
Only then did Chang Huaixin walk over to the craftsman wearing a straw hat and ragged clothes. The craftsman was repairing the city wall with a tile knife. When Chang Huaixin came closer, he raised his head slightly, and his big hand covered in mud quickly lifted the brim of the straw hat upwards, and then quickly lowered it. Although it was a shocking glance, Chang Huaixin had already recognized that he was Yan Tuojiang, the commander who had successfully escaped from Xinman camp with Ma Yongqing as the qualifier.
Chang Huaixin was extremely shocked. He didn't expect Yan Tuojiang to be so bold. He finally escaped from Xinman Camp, but returned. However, he immediately figured out that Xinman Camp was Yan Tuojiang's lifelong hard work. If anyone was reluctant to give his own hard work, others would have been free. But he couldn't figure out what kind of way did Yan Tuojiang return to the city and do it without knowing it? Did he never leave from beginning to end?
Chang Huaixin pretended to be nothing, took out a cigarette, lit it in the leeward, then leaned on the battlements of the city wall, and whispered: "Why do you have to come back?"
Yan Tuojiang calmly repaired the city wall. His skillful and experienced skills were not easy for an expert to see the flaws. He whispered: "If I don't come back, do you think Ma Yongping can defend Xinman Camp?"
Chang Huaixin took a sip of cigarette hard, and above their heads, a purple lightning twisted and jumped like a spiritual snake. What followed was a muffled thunder that shook the world. Although Chang Haixin was ready, he was still scared and shivered. The ashes shook down and fell on Yan Tuojiang's body.
Chang Huaixin's lips moved. If it were the past, he would apologize to Yan Tuojiang immediately. Although he was unintentional, he was disrespectful after all, but the current situation did not allow it.
Yan Tuojiang didn't mind at all and continued: "This time there was a lot of trouble. It was not a question of who was in charge, but whether he could save his life..." After pausing, he added: "I don't know that you and I are concerned about the entire Xinmanying and even the people of Ganbian."
Chang Huaixin did not think that Yan Tuojiang was exaggerating. Anyone who had witnessed the madness of those infected with the virus would believe that this might be a sign before the end of the world. He took a sip of smoke and said, "Is the Grand Marshal back for this?"
The tile knife in Yan Tuojiang's hand fell down, dividing the blue bricks into two, blocking the gap in the city wall just right.
Chang Huaixin witnessed Yan Tuojiang's slashing movements simply and accurately, as if he saw the arrogant hero who had been in the past coming to his side. He suppressed the excitement in his heart and whispered: "Master, let's go with you in front of you and your horse!"
After determining the nearest road to Laoyingpan, Luo Lie led his members to move forward, and went straight to Laoyingpan from here to Laoyingpan. Just to avoid trouble, they bypassed the area of the Xixia Royal Tomb, and their speed of hiking in the Gobi Desert would inevitably be affected.
Although Yan Tianxin was eager to rush to the road, she also understood the principle that hasteness would not be understood. She was patient and mastered the rhythm of the journey, and recovered her strength while rushing to the road as much as possible.
Tan Zicong woke up after taking the medicine for two hours, and his consciousness actually returned to his senses. When he found out that he was tied up on the camel, he shouted in panic: "What do you want to do? Where is my dad? My dad and my brothers will not let you go."
Arnold said: "Take it down, your brothers have already gone to run for their own lives."
