late at night.
When the officers were sleeping soundly, they suddenly felt the ground beneath them shaking violently, as if it was going to throw them high into the air.
The people who were sleeping were also awakened by the noise, and the place was immediately in chaos.
Earlier on Guanshan Road, rocks fell from the mountain and they had no choice but to flee.
Now that there was nothing around, they didn't know where to escape to.
As soon as the ground began to shake, Xiao Jingzhou thought of Jiang Zhenyu's previous reminder.
They found a resting place with a tangle of tree trunks below.
Although the tree is dry and dead, and its roots do not have the gripping power of a living tree, the intertwined and compacted soil is definitely harder than the soil in the basin below.
Xiao Jingzhou shouted: "Don't panic, everyone stay where you are, don't run around!"
The three families were already in a panic, and Xiao Jingzhou's voice was limited, and he couldn't make people obey his orders instantly.
...
...
Fortunately, Gu Zhenbei was by his side.
He always had a loud voice, so he yelled at the crowd, and those who heard the voice did the same.
Those who didn't hear it, seeing the reactions of the people around them, also squatted in the same place, motionless.
The officials' side is in chaos and will be blown away by the wind.
No matter how Zhou Wu shouted, it was useless. In the end, he took the handle of the knife and hit the officers' legs to force them not to act rashly.
The sky was dark and the ground around them was shaking with loud noises, striking at everyone's hearts.
It's like an evil god hovering in the sky, able to take people's lives anytime and anywhere.
The earth dragon surged for about half an incense stick of time and finally calmed down.
Xiao Jingzhou immediately asked someone to check if there were any casualties.
Fortunately, when everyone was in a panic, they quickly followed the instructions, and except for two people whose legs were stepped on, no one was seriously injured.
On the other side, Hou Si was hit on the leg by Zhou Wu, and he covered his leg and grimaced.
He knew that his elder brother had held back on his strength, but the force was still enough to make the injured man suffer.
Everyone was originally furious about being beaten by Zhou Wu, but they found that they were alive and well.
That bit of angry thought disappeared in an instant.
A group of people surrounded Zhou Wu and came to express their gratitude.
"Luckily we have Brother Zhou, otherwise we don't know what would have happened!"
"Brother Zhou, you are so kind to me, I will follow you till death!"
Zhou Wu opened his mouth, but in the end, nothing came out.
In his opinion, it was not he who saved his brothers this time, but the deposed Crown Prince Xiao Jingzhou.
If he hadn't told the three families not to act rashly, he wouldn't have followed their lead!
With such a big commotion, everyone lost all sense of sleepiness and everyone stayed awake until dawn.
When the sky brightened, looking towards the basin outside Guanshan Road from the hillside, we found that the ground was torn into countless cracks.
When they were walking back, they said the ground was like a piece of cloth with several holes torn in it, but now it would be better to say that the cloth was torn into pieces without a single good spot!
Hou Si shouted, "Where are Zhang Da and the others?"
After Hou Si shouted loudly, everyone remembered that there were fourteen or fifteen people led by Zhang Da, who stayed outside Guanshan Road to rest.
Now looking at the criss-crossing tears, there is no trace of a human figure at all.
The people who were still alive yesterday disappeared as soon as the day broke.
Everyone present felt a shiver in their hearts, feeling both frightened and relieved.
Zhou Wu looked at the scene in front of him and felt furious.
Fortunately they followed, otherwise they would be the ones dead!
Many officials also realized that if they did not follow the deposed prince and go back, they would probably have suffered the same fate as Zhang Da and the others.
After this incident, the officials looked at Xiao Jingzhou with admiration and gratitude.
Zhou Wu walked up to Xiao Jingzhou, clasped his fists and said, "Thank you, Your Highness, for saving our brothers. Zhou Wu will work like a cow or a horse in this life and will definitely repay Your Highness."
Xiao Jingzhou said calmly: "It's just a small favor, don't worry about it."
Zhou Wu wanted to say something, but Xiao Jingzhou said, "In fact, it was your judgment that saved your brothers."
Zhang Da and his companions were unwilling to go back, so facing another earth dragon turning over, they decided to leave their lives outside Guanshan Road.
After Zhou Wu left.
Lu Chen walked up to Xiao Jingzhou and asked, "Your Highness, what's Zhou Wu doing?"
Xiao Jingzhou said: "To show goodwill."
Lu Chen immediately responded: "Your Highness, are you going to help them?"
Xiao Jingzhou shook his head: "Let's see what happens first."
The sun slowly rose, and everyone packed up their things and started on their journey again.
This time, everyone seemed to have agreed that the deposed Crown Prince Xiao Jingzhou would lead the way.
Gu Zhenbei took the map from Zhou Wu and said as he walked:
“Your Highness, if we want to go around below, we have to pass through Zouzhuang.
This will take three more days of journey. ”
Xiao Jingzhou knew what Gu Zhenbei meant. The officials were cut off from water and food, and the only things they had to fill their stomachs were a few Guanyin earth cakes. They might starve to death before they could even reach Zouzhuang.
Xiao Jingzhou said: "Have people pay more attention to the movements of the officers. Now is not the time to help them."
If you want to recruit people, you must go to extremes, otherwise you may be bitten back.
When people are extremely hungry and suddenly learn that there is a treasure that can be vomited out, their desire to grab it will definitely reach its peak.
The three families of Gu, Wei and Qian all had patients and even young children and female relatives.
If a real fight breaks out, he can't guarantee their safety.
Gu Zhenbei also guessed what Xiao Jingzhou meant and nodded in understanding: "I'll give the order right away."
After walking for half a day, everyone was exhausted.
Even though the three families had eaten two meals of buns, they now lay on the ground and didn't want to move at all.
Not to mention the officials who were still hungry.
Huang Yanshun did not follow Zhang Da, but instead followed Zhou Wu and went back.
Zhang Da and Zhou Wu have never been on good terms. Huang Yanshun was close to Zhang Da before, so he was naturally classified as Zhang Da's lackey.
At this time, he huddled at the edge of the official's rest area and took out half a piece of black steamed bun.
This was all the food he had left.
After he finished eating it in one bite, he heard some noise at his feet. Fortunately, the noise was coming from near and then far away, not coming towards him.
He watched Hou Si walk to Zhou Wu and hand him a piece of Guanyin earth cake.
Zhou Wu took the Guanyin clay cake and looked at Xiao Jingzhou again.
He originally thought that by taking refuge with Xiao Jingzhou, he could get some food.
Unexpectedly, Xiao Jingzhou had no intention of bringing them together at all.
Zhou Wu bit the earth cake, feeling melancholy.
Suddenly, he saw his brother beside him, biting his fingers and sucking blood.
Zhou Wu's eyes widened, his face filled with shock.
Hou Si thought he wanted to drink too, so he closed his eyes, and stretched out his hand with a fearless attitude.
"Brother, you saved my life, drink my drink!"
Zhou Wu slapped his dirty hand away, his brows furrowed, and the melancholy in his heart became even heavier.
On the other side, Lu Chen reported the actions of the officers to Xiao Jingzhou.
"That's the thing. The officials have started drinking blood to satisfy their hunger."
Xiao Jingzhou nodded: "Got it."
Then, he ordered: "Go and give Madam Wei a few more heart-saving pills. As people age, accidents are more likely to happen."
After Lu Chen left, Gu Zhenbei said, "I'm afraid they have reached their limit."
Xiao Jingzhou said: "If you don't reach the limit, your kindness will turn into hatred.
It's almost time to recruit the officials for your own use. ”
We will have to enter Zhiyi City in a few days, and no one knows the situation in the city.
If more people enter the city, any danger can be alleviated!
