Chapter 364 They Can't Retreat
Firstly, it gives me something to do, and secondly, I can stay here with Xing'er.
Xuanyuan Yi and the three little ones also like to come here when they have nothing to do. Liu Youran plants peach trees, and they pick peach blossoms.
It’s just that peach blossom cakes were made one after another, but there was no movement in the cave in the middle of the cliff.
"Grandma, when will my aunt come out? Zibo hasn't seen her for a long time."
Xia Zibo was already a little boy of nine or almost ten years old. He was lying on the ground covered with peach blossoms, playing with a caterpillar in his hand. From time to time he would look up at the blue sky and sigh.
Today is another day that makes me miss my aunt. If she doesn’t come out soon, I won’t be able to recognize Zi Bo.
"Zi Bo is now the man described in the book, who never regrets even if his clothes become looser and looser, and who becomes haggard for her!"
Liu Youran looked at him and smiled, "I didn't see you miss a piece of peach blossom pastry."
The little guy blushed and retorted: "I still need to grow!"
I threw away the stupid green bug in my hand, patted the flowers on my body, and prepared to go help my grandmother with the work.
"Grandma, let me do it. I'm strong!"
"Look at my uncle-in-law. He's standing in the pavilion again as if he were a piece of wood. He's smiling like a fool at the flowers all over the mountain. I don't know why my aunt likes him so much."
The little guy had just finished poking his uncle and then looked at Xia Ziyu, who was playing chess with Grandpa Zhuge all day. "Grandma, look at my eldest brother. Apart from sleeping, eating, and practicing martial arts, he only knows how to play chess. Now he is as old-fashioned as this old man."
He was counting on his fingers and chattering non-stop. His second brother was looking for someone to challenge him every day, and his uncle couldn't find anyone all day long. Anyway, after counting, he was the only one who was normal!
I slept, ate, practiced martial arts and grew up normally, and waited eagerly for my aunt to come out of confinement.
Liu Youran listened to her little grandson's mouth chattering in her ear like a little sparrow, and the smile on her face grew bigger and bigger.
Only when he looked at the transparent barrier did a hint of worry appear in the depths of his eyes.
Although she had never left Stone Village, she knew what was happening outside because news had come from secret locations outside.
Three years ago, an evil force suddenly appeared out of nowhere. Every March 3rd, July 7th, and September 9th, they would massacre unarmed civilians.
It started in Nether City and has now spread to all parts of the world.
The Netherworld City has now become a hell on earth, with widespread grief and countless deaths and injuries.
Epidemics and natural disasters came one after another, and the places where the massacres took place were covered with dark clouds and had not seen the sun for a long time.
Due to the chaos, Emperor Shunkang didn't even bother to investigate the matter of King Kaoshan being imprisoned in Shitou Village.
Whether it was the eunuch families or the common people, all were shrouded in unprecedented fear.
Not long ago, on March 3rd, a city of the Xuanyuan Dynasty fell, and countless refugees left their homes and fled to other places.
All the grain grown in the entire Stone Village and on the mountain was distributed, except for supplying the reserves and needs of Stone Village.
Even half of the income of the Buye Pavilion was invested in disaster relief.
Most of the military equipment in Stone Village has been deployed, and strongholds have been established in various places to accommodate the homeless victims.
To this end, he even joined forces with the imperial court and temporarily put aside his hatred.
If the reason why Xuanyuan Yi and the Xia family raised so many soldiers in the past was to pull Emperor Shunkang down from that position, then the purpose of raising so many soldiers now is to hope that these chaos will be quelled as soon as possible and let the people return to normal life as soon as possible.
Inside the pavilion, the tall, black figure stood there for a moment before leaving.
Xuanyuan Yi has been busy outside recently and rarely has time to come back here. He comes back to see his mother and the Xia family, and spends the rest of his time in the pavilion.
Even though I can only stay here for a short while.
Every time he came back, the smell of blood on his body was stronger than the last time.
But there is no other way. Now, only the Black Potassium Army led by him can resist those evil people for a while.
Although Liu Youran felt sorry for his son-in-law, the world was about to collapse and the people were suffering. This was what he should do as a descendant of the Xuanyuan family.
Those ghost-faced men did not wait until the next node to carry out the brutal massacre as usual. After March 3rd, they set out for Liangzhou City without even waiting for half a month.
They all wore black robes and ghost masks, and they were very powerful.
From the original few thousand people, it has now grown into a huge group of tens of thousands.
But this time, it didn't go as smoothly as before.
This time they faced the 50,000 Black Potassium Army led by Xuanyuan Yi and the 30,000 elite soldiers of Shitou Village, and were deadlocked in Liangzhou City for more than two months.
Xuanyuan Yi and his men had a steady supply of food and grass from Stone Village, and they had all kinds of sophisticated equipment. Each of them was an elite soldier. If they were fighting against soldiers from the Xuanyuan Dynasty or the Northern Di, they would have been beaten to a pulp long ago.
But what they are facing now are the ghost-faced men who can never be killed. Using their flesh and blood bodies to fight against the immortal body, more than two months is really their limit.
The streets of the entire Liangzhou City were deserted, no longer as prosperous and bustling as before. Most of the residents in the city had already fled when they heard that the Ghost-Faced Man was coming to kill them.
Dark clouds covered the entire Liangzhou city and never stopped for a single day.
The city walls were littered with wounded Black Potassium soldiers. They were all wounded, disabled, and covered in blood.
The night was dark, with only the bonfire lighting the way.
"General, look, what is that?"
Xuanyuan Yi looked up and saw a dark mass of people rushing towards the city gate. In the cold night, crows were flying and sharp, short whistles were sounding irregularly.
He suddenly clenched the Dragon Roar Sword in his hand.
"All troops on alert, bring on the ignition oil!"
A new round of siege began.
However, this time, the ones attacking the city were not the ghost-faced men. They retreated behind the scenes, and those who rushed up were some living dead with no life characteristics.
These living dead are all civilians who were massacred in the past.
Can after can of kerosene was burned, but it still couldn't stop the dense piles of corpses from crawling up. Just one look down would make one's scalp tingle.
But what could they do? They couldn't take a single step back.
If we allow them to capture Liangzhou City, it would be equivalent to taking over Buye Pavilion, which is equivalent to taking over Shitou Village.
Their wives, children, parents, friends and family are all there.
Even if they don't care about the millions of people behind them, they cannot retreat.
