Chapter 054 Siege
After a while, Zhao Zhen stood up and said to Li Dongjie: "It's okay, he's still a human being, but...if he can't find the antidote, he may not really be a human being anymore."
After listening to Zhao Zhen's words, Li Dongjie turned his head and glanced at Zhao Zhen, then at Yelu Qinghui on the ground. Without saying anything, he slowly walked to the wall and sat down, saying: "What should we do, Yelu Qinghui?"
He is a complete burden now, and if you carry him with you any longer, it will be like carrying an untimed bomb."
Zhao Zhen did not speak, but looked at the unconscious Yelu Qinghui and thought about something.
Seeing that Zhao Zhen didn't speak, Li Dongjie asked Zhao Zhen again.
Zhao Zhen still didn't answer him. Seeing that Zhao Zhen ignored him, Li Dongjie simply stopped talking.
After a while, Zhao Zhen slowly stood up, walked to Li Dongjie and sat down.
Li Dongjie glanced at Zhao Zhen, who was sitting next to him, and said, "How's it going? Did you find anything around just now?"
Zhao Zhen hummed and said: "I found three reliefs. I can understand the meaning of the first two, but I can't figure out what the third one means."
"Tell me about it, maybe I can untie it for you."
Zhao Zhen glanced at Li Dongjie, took another puff of cigarette and told Li Dongjie what he had just seen there.
After Li Dongjie heard what Zhao Zhen said, he took a deep breath and said, "If I guessed correctly, the person escorted by the army on the third relief you saw should be a 'dead soldier'."
Zhao Zhen turned to look at Li Dongjie and asked: "Dead soldier?"
"Yes, it's the Dead Soldier. This is a technique introduced by the ancient people from the Western Regions. It controls a dead person with a special ability. These Dead Soldiers rely on eating raw meat to maintain their bodies from decaying.
Once the body rots, it will turn into a species similar to zombies, but more powerful than zombies." After speaking, Li Dongjie looked at Zhao Zhen, and when Zhao Zhen didn't speak, Li Dongjie continued: "An ancient city like this is not that good at all.
The raw meat was eaten by the dead soldiers, so I think the dead soldiers on the reliefs are probably almost zombies now."
After hearing these words, Zhao Zhen immediately stood up and asked: "Is it like the one we met when we first came in?"
When Li Dongjie was asked this question by Zhao Zhen, he was a little confused and asked: "Which one?"
Seeing Li Dongjie's confused look, Zhao Zhen said a little anxiously: "It's the one in armor we met when we first entered the city."
"Yes, that's right."
When Zhao Zhen saw Li Dongjie's affirmative answer, he immediately said: "We can't stay here anymore, we must leave immediately." Just when Li Dongjie was about to ask why he wanted to leave, a voice asked him ahead of him.
Zhao Zhen and Li Dongjie immediately turned to look in the direction from which the voice came, and saw a figure standing on the wall looking at them. After seeing the man's face clearly, Zhao Zhen and Li Dongjie almost shouted at the same time:
"Gao Yuhan."
Looking at Gao Yuhan, Zhao Zhen and Li Dongjie squatting on the wall, a warmth suddenly felt in their hearts.
Li Dongjie quickly ran to the wall, raised his head and said to Gao Yuhan: "Why did you appear here? Have you found the entrance?"
Gao Yuhan glanced at Li Dongjie who was standing under the wall, nodded slightly, and then looked at Zhao Zhen who was standing by the wall, and saw that there was no trace of joy in seeing him on Zhao Zhen's face.
Jumping off the wall, Gao Yuhan walked towards Zhao Zhen.
stand
Next to Zhao Zhen, the two people looked at Yelu Qinghui lying on the ground.
Gao Yuhan frowned and asked Zhao Zhen: "What's going on? Wasn't it fine when I left? Why is it like this now?"
Zhao Zhen glanced at Gao Yuhan, sighed and told Gao Yuhan what happened that night.
After listening to Zhao Zhen's story, Gao Yuhan stood up and walked to Yelu Qinghui's side, stretched out his hand to open Yelu Qinghui's closed eyes, and carefully observed the changes in Yelu Qinghui's pupils. After observing for a while,
, Gao Yuhan came to Zhao Zhen and said: "It's nothing serious, I'm just poisoned. There is an antidote here. I'm going to pick some back now." After saying that, he turned around and left to look for the antidote.
Upon seeing this, Li Dongjie immediately ran to Gao Yuhan's side and said, "I'll go with you. There are so many people, so we can take care of you."
Gao Yuhan looked back at Li Dongjie, shook his head and said: "No, I can do it by myself. You should stay with Zhao Zhen. If I take you away, Zhao Zhen will be the only one left here.
There is also Yelu Qinghui who is seriously injured. If something happens, it will be detrimental to Zhao Zhen."
Li Dongjie looked at Gao Yuhan who was walking away, smiled bitterly, and turned to look at Yelu Qinghui who was lying on the ground. He saw that Yelu Qinghui's face had turned blue now, just like a zombie.
Just when Li Dongjie was concentrating on looking at Yelu Qinghui's face, Yelu Qinghui's eyes suddenly opened and he stared at Li Dongjie.
Being looked at by Yelu Qinghui, Li Dongjie felt uneasy all over, so he turned his head and stopped looking at Yelu Qinghui. Yelu Qinghui saw that Li Dongjie was no longer looking at him, so he turned his head and looked at Zhao Zhen. At this time
Zhao Zhen was smoking a cigarette and looking at the sky, but did not notice Yelu Qinghui looking at him. Seeing that Zhao Zhen was not looking at him, Yelu Qinghui opened his mouth and shouted. Hearing Yelu Qinghui's movement, Zhao Zhen withdrew his eyes from the sky.
He came back and looked at Yelu Qinghui with both eyes.
Yelu Qinghui supported the stone slab with his arms and tried to sit up, but he tried several times without success. Zhao Zhen knew that Yelu Qinghui wanted to sit up, but stretched out a hand to stop him and said: "You
If you want to save your life, it's best not to move around. The toxins have already dispersed in your body. If you want to speed up their spread, just sit up hard." After saying this, Zhao Zhen took a sip.
Smoke continues to look at the sky.
Yelu Qinghui was immediately discouraged after hearing Zhao Zhen's words. He lay on the ground, looked at the sky, and said, "Do you think I will die?"
Zhao Zhen took the last puff of his cigarette, threw the cigarette butt under his feet, stamped it out, and replied, "Why do you ask that?"
Yelu Qinghui smiled bitterly and said: "My own feeling is that I can't exert any strength in my body now. I know my face is ugly now. Do I look like a zombie in the movie?"
Zhao Zhen looked at Yelu Qinghui's face carefully and replied: "It's a little different. You don't have the two canine teeth of a zombie."
"There will be. I also know what will happen if there is no antidote after being bitten by a 'ghost moth'..." Before Yelu Qinghui finished speaking, he was directly interrupted by Zhao Zhen, saying: "Gao Yuhan
Now I'm going to find the antidote. I'll be back soon. Even if you want to die, you can't die until Gao Yuhan comes back." After saying that, Zhao Zhen lit a cigarette and took a deep puff, and his breathing became heavier.
At this time, Li Dongjie, who had been standing silently, came over and said, "I think it's time for us to change places."
"What's wrong?"
"I do not know either
"Yes, but I always feel that it's not safe to stay in one place."
Zhao Zhen stood up, glanced in the direction Gao Yuhan left and said, "What if we change places and Gao Yuhan can't find us when he comes back?"
Li Dongjie took out a dagger from his waist and said, "We can carve marks on these walls. When he comes back, he will naturally follow these marks to find us."
Zhao Zhen looked at the dagger in Li Dongjie's hand, thought for a moment and nodded.
Zhao Zhen said to Yelu Qinghui, who was already somewhat conscious, "We have to change places now, please bear with it."
Yelu Qinghui nodded, and seeing Yelu Qinghui nodding in agreement, Zhao Zhen grabbed Yelu Qinghui's shoulder with his left hand, and moved his right hand from the crook of Yelu Qinghui's knee, using both arms to resist Yelu Qinghui.
He put his hand on his shoulder, then turned around and said to Li Dongjie: "Let's go."
Li Dongjie saw that Zhao Zhen had carried Yelu Qinghui up alone, so he picked up the dagger in his hand and carved an arrow mark on the wall, meaning that when Gao Yuhan came back, he could follow the arrow to find them.
In this way, Zhao Zhen carried Yelu Qinghui and walked in front. Li Dongjie walked behind with marks for about ten minutes. Zhao Zhen, who was walking in front, stopped, put Yelu Qinghui down from his shoulders, and sat down by himself.
He took out a cigarette and started smoking.
While Zhao Zhen was lighting up his cigarette, Li Dongjie came over and sat next to Zhao Zhen. He raised his head and looked at the sky and said, "It's starting to get dark. I wonder if Gao Yuhan can find us before it gets completely dark.
"
Zhao Zhen looked at Li Dongjie and said nothing, but took another heavy drag on his cigarette. He looked back at Yelu Qinghui, who was lying on the ground and passed out again, and sighed softly.
Li Dongjie saw Zhao Zhen sighing, and when he was about to ask why he was sighing, he heard a gunshot coming from the place where they just left.
Hearing the sound of gunfire, Zhao Zhen and Li Dongjie immediately stood up and looked towards the place they had just left. They looked at each other and said at the same time: "Did something happen to Gao Yuhan?"
Zhao Zhen took out his pistol and ran towards the place where the gunshots were heard, completely ignoring Li Dongjie's loud protest from behind. When he left that place just now, he walked, but now Zhao Zhen ran, and it only took him the time
Two-tenths of the time, I ran to the place where I just left.
Standing behind the corner, Zhao Zhen carefully poked his head out and observed the situation in front. Sure enough, Gao Yuhan was fighting with a group of unknown species. Gao Yuhan seemed to be somewhat passive.
Zhao Zhen looked around and decided where to go.
"Oh no, they're probably in danger." Chen Yina and I squatted on a collapsed roof, watching Gao Yuhan being besieged by a group of monsters. The situation was already precarious.
"Lin Kun, is this the thing above?" Chen Yina asked tremblingly.
"It's hard to say right now."
I carefully counted the number of those species and found that there were more than a dozen. "The situation is not good right now. Zhao Zhen thinks that if he rushes from the front now, he will be in the same desperate situation as Gao Yuhan."
"What should we do? Do we want to save them?"
"We cannot be reckless. Once we act rashly, our whereabouts will be exposed and all our previous efforts will be wasted. Instead, we ourselves will be in despair."
