"Something happened? What happened?" Zhou Cang suddenly felt nervous. The school commander in front of him was not a new recruit or a young master officer, but a veteran who had fought against the demon clan many times. He had never looked like this in more than a year.
Now he has a look of fear on his face.
Cheng Xiaoling paused, as if swallowing the saliva in his throat, and then pursed his chapped lips and said: "Sir, most of the group of monsters that recently entered the territory died yesterday afternoon. The remaining ones are less than half.
Ten of them were picked up by the demon clan who followed behind."
"Wait! Are you talking about the group of monsters who just passed Baima Stone yesterday?"
"Yes, sir. They are the group of monsters who just passed Baima Stone yesterday."
"How is that possible?" Zhou Cang frowned. Although the demon clan could not withstand the attack of those invisible and intangible monsters, it was not so unbearable. They came in yesterday and today there are only less than ten people left.
Already?
Cheng Xiaoling also understood that what he said was unreasonable, but it was the truth, so he nodded vigorously and explained: "Sir, I am absolutely telling the truth! Most of the monsters in that group are really dead, and
The situation is very strange.
Probably last night, the group of monsters camped at the rocky beach in the north. As you know, every group of monsters that comes in will go there to have a meal and then dig holes. Some of them dig new holes.
Some continue to drill into existing holes.
We kept staring at the group of monsters. At first, we didn't think it was anything when we saw them camping on the rocky beach. Later, they began to find some holes made by the monsters in front and continued to drill down. And they were very persistent.
The earth and rocks dug out are as high as mountains."
The demon clan's ability to dig holes is not due to any special tools, but to the rock rats in their team. Each of them is like a living drilling machine, and they are the main force for the demon clan to dig holes everywhere in Xiyuan County.
Commander Cheng's voice had stabilized and he continued: "There were no problems all night. I heard them shouting for a while late at night, and it seemed that they had dug something, but in the end I found that it was a black piece of ice-like material.
The things quickly dispersed. Our people leaned over and could see clearly from a short distance away. The demon clan did not continue to dig deeper.
It wasn't until daybreak that something happened to them. First, three rock rats died inexplicably in the camp. They died in their sleep, and no one noticed them.
I thought it was another inexplicable death like usual, but something was wrong with the corpse! When our people went to record the number of dead monsters, they saw that the three rock rat corpses were covered with black markings, inch by inch, densely packed.
Covered all over the body.
At noon, the group of monsters began to have problems one after another, and then died soon. There was a sign before they died, that is, the dead monsters would also have black markings on their bodies!"
Zhou Cang's eyes widened, he jumped up from his chair, grabbed Colonel Cheng's collar, and asked in a deep voice: "Where are your spies? Are they following you back to camp?!"
Cheng Xiaoling was frightened by Zhou Cang's fierce actions and quickly replied: "Don't worry, sir. Those spies are staying ten miles outside the military camp. They also feel something is wrong. One of the spies had a plague in his hometown."
, so we are very alert to this kind of thing. We were five feet away from the spies when we last spoke."
Zhou Cang regained his composure after hearing this, because what he just said was so similar to the kind of plague that kills people invisible. And the source of the plague should be the monster that the demon tribe dug up last night.
Plant black "ice".
However, Zhou Cang was still worried and said: "You should immediately ask all your people to take the tents and not go anywhere! Forget it, don't go."
Then he turned to the adjutant beside him and ordered: "Immediately seal the camp where the First Cavalry is located, and send all those who have come into contact with the First Cavalry to be guarded together! Meals will be provided for them to take on their own. Anyone who dares to enter or exit without authorization will be shot to death."
!" After saying that, he looked at Colonel Cheng in the tent and said, "You stay here with me!"
The adjutant also honestly let the flag bearer pass the order from a distance without leaving the tent at all.
"We will lock you down for three days to see if anyone dies. Once someone dies, we will leave immediately and go to the opposite side of Baima Stone to find trouble with the demon clan." Zhou Cang's face was filled with seriousness at this time, and his words sounded like a joke.
, but the adjutant in the tent and the school commander all knew that what Zhou Cang said was true.
Zhou Cang spent three days in torment. Not only Zhou Cang, but everyone in Baima Shijun Village was in a nervous mood. Although most people didn't know what happened, they also felt something unusual.
Fortunately, no one in the military camp had any problems in the past three days, not even the three cavalry spies who stayed outside the military camp.
Zhou Cang was relieved. However, the spies outside the military camp had to stay outside for another three days. After all, they were the ones who had been closest to the group of monsters and needed to be more careful. The spies also understood that as long as there was
Delivering water and food, they just find a forest to stay, not to mention three days, thirty days doesn't matter. Isn't this much more comfortable than running around every day?
Only then did Zhou Cang in the military camp dare to pick up a pen and start writing a letter to Baishi City. Before, he was worried that he would be doomed if the plague spread from Feiyu to Baishi City. So he kept waiting, and today he found out that the military camp
When there was nothing to do, he sent the note he had written long ago back via Feiyu.
Black "ice" resembles plague, black spots, and extremely short death time. These keywords came into the hands of Yang Shiming, commander of the Western Army in Baishi City, that night, and they also shocked Yang Shiming.
Baima Shi and Zhou Cang were fine, but in Yang Shiming's eyes, other places in Xiyuan County were also facing similar dangers. While he understood Zhou Cang's caution in reporting the news three days later, he secretly cursed the report for being too slow. He felt conflicted.
, Yang Shiming even felt inexplicably panicked for the first time in many years. You must know that he had never panicked when he faced the demon army pressing down on the situation before.
Plague! You can't stop that thing at all. You can only hide. Once you can't hide, too many people will die too quickly. Even one Western Route Army in Xiyuan County will collapse quickly.
Yang Shiming did not dare to delay, so he quickly left Baishi City with an urgent order, and also flew to all the military camps in Xiyuan County responsible for tracking the demon clan in the form of Feiyu. All the discoveries of Baima Stone were attached intact.
Including the emergency method on the Baima Stone side. At the same time, some details have been added. For example, if the spies find a similar situation, they cannot return to the camp. They can only light the beacon fire, wait for the people to pass, and shout from a position five feet upwind to deliver the message, etc...
...
Just two days later, another "black spot death" incident occurred in Xiyuan County. The situation was exactly the same as the first time.
