Chapter 25 Omen



At this time, all the wild beasts in the ten-mile mountains, regardless of their size, hurriedly gathered in Chuncheng. If there was a helicopter shooting, you could see a strange scene: the larger beasts carried the smaller beasts and began to run down the mountain, while the refugees at the gate of Chuncheng still seemed as if nothing had happened, slumped or lying at the city gate waiting for the porridge distribution time the next morning.

No one noticed the situation inside the Ten-Li Mountain at all, but the officers and soldiers who were patrolling at the city gate had already noticed the situation in the Ten-Li Mountain, because the direction of the smoke and dust seemed to be rushing towards Chuncheng.

As soon as they noticed the situation, they quickly reported it. The officials in Chuncheng quickly reported it to the City Lord's Mansion. The City Lord was looking at the situation in Chuncheng, and Wei Chunfeng was having a terrible headache right now.

There were more and more refugees at the city gate, and less and less food in the city. People who went to other cities to exchange food brought back news that they could not buy food at all, which made him feel even more disappointed.

Just when he was worrying about what to eat for the refugees at the city gate, he heard some unusual sounds on the mountain, which were even very obvious.

At this time, he didn't care about the refugees outside the city. He quickly stood up and climbed up the city wall, looking at the Ten-Li Mountain. At this time, the dust had spread to the halfway point of the Ten-Li Mountain.

Originally, Wei Chunfeng wanted to open the city gate to allow the refugees outside the city wall at the foot of the mountain to enter the city, but it was too late. He could only seize the time to let the team that was about to enter the city pass quickly, and then close the city gate of Chuncheng tightly.

The refugees were very curious as to why the city gate that opened from the outside was suddenly closed today. Some smart people naturally discovered the problem and began to flee to another part of the city wall.

More people were running around like headless flies. Some gathered at the city gate and asked the mayor of Chuncheng to open the city gate and save their lives. Because the city gate was not opened for a long time, the people below even started cursing.

The sound of people swearing below did not disturb Wei Chunfeng from arranging the soldiers on the city wall to guard Chuncheng. He looked at the people below and then glanced at the people who were busy in the city.

He could only choose one side to protect. He was the lord of Chuncheng and could not abandon the residents in the city. As for the refugees outside, he had no way to help them and could only leave it to fate.

However, he did not give up the idea of ​​rescuing these people. Instead, he chose to have people shout to these refugees to go around the city and go to the back door behind the city wall. There, a small door could be opened temporarily for them to come in and take refuge. If the wild beasts on the mountain came down, the small door would be immediately sealed.

If they don’t see it within the specified time, then we can only say that these people are not destined to survive.

Wei Chunfeng looked at the powerless people under the city wall with pity on his face, and then arranged for the soldiers to go up to the city wall and shout to them to go back, because he had just seen many people running to the back, probably wanting to go to the small gate at the back. These people were smart enough to seize the opportunity.

After arranging guards to protect Chuncheng, Wei Chunfeng hurried back to the City Lord's Mansion and began writing letters for help and sending them to nearby cities. He didn't know whether he could survive the coming of this tide of beasts, but he would do his best to protect the people in the city.

The carrier pigeons couldn't fly out at all because they were all trembling and had no way to deliver the message. Wei Chunfeng could only pull out his two treasured fast horses and ask people to at least deliver the letter for help as soon as possible. They had no idea that the situation in other places was the same as in Chuncheng. Animals everywhere began to migrate in search of open and safe places.

The fast-running beasts on the mountain soon reached the foot of the city wall, but they did not besiege the people under the wall. Instead, they ran directly back from the side. They seemed to be running towards Mo City. Some of them went directly along the direction of the Ten-Li Mountain towards the Zhang family's team.

After the wild beasts arrived at the open area, they ignored the people there and gathered together, as if waiting for something to arrive. They had no intention of biting or beating the people to death, but instead deliberately stayed away from them.

The guards in the city did not dare to act rashly, for they were worried that the animals would suddenly riot and harm those who had not entered the city. At this time, a small door at the back door had been opened to allow people to come in as quickly as possible.

After all the animals at the foot of the mountain gathered together, seeing that there were still many people who had not entered, Wei Chunfeng did not hesitate at all and ordered people to seal the door directly. Even though people later knocked on the door frantically, no one paid any attention.

The wild beasts were curious about the people knocking on the small door and thought that these people were fools. There was a strong earthquake about to come, but they still had the mood to run into the city instead of running out to save their lives.

Humans are now completely preoccupied with the thought that wild animals may come down the mountain and bite them to death, and they can no longer think about why these wild animals suddenly gave up their lives in the mountains and ran here.

They would only think that because there was no water or food in the mountains, these wild beasts were starving, so they came down the mountain to look for prey to fill their stomachs. They, who were powerless, were their best snacks.

Looking at the more than ten-meter-long snake, everyone was trembling with fear. The golden vertical pupils were staring at these people curiously, as if he had met such people on the mountain two days ago. For some reason, he felt that the people he met on the mountain two days ago seemed very smart, much smarter than these people.
