The end of the world begins with the king

Chapter 120 Corpse Tide
"Brother Zhang, is this really possible?"

Looking at the moat that was more than ten feet wide, Huang Tianyan was a little worried.

Not to mention whether they can swim across safely, but what about after passing?That is only temporarily safe, and there is still a city wall blocking the outside if you want to enter the city.

But at this moment on the city wall, a torch was lit every few feet, and there were soldiers patrolling the city wall, so it was extremely difficult to get in.

"Brother Huang, apart from this method, are we the same as those people? Also go to ask those officials and masters in the city to show kindness?"

Zhang Ziming was very clear about the faces of officials and dignitaries. How could such a group of selfish people finally trick the big guys out of the city and let them in again?

Looking at the people crying for their parents and mothers in the distance, Huang Tianyan couldn't help but sighed, and said helplessly, "It seems that we can't go into the water!"

The two reached an agreement, and under the cover of night, they led a group of people into the water quietly.

Fortunately, it is not winter now, otherwise it would not be an easy task to swim there.

Dozens of people went into the water together. Although they tried to reduce their movements as much as possible, they were still discovered by the guards on the city wall.

With a "pop", a stone fell into the river and made a wave.

"Go back, if you dare to go forward, you will be killed!" The guards shouted from the city wall.

The reason why they were discovered so quickly was that they were not the first to go down the river. After the first wave of people were discovered, the guards were asked to pay extra attention to the river.

In fact, now that the suspension bridges everywhere are closed, it is not uncommon for the people to swim across the river if they want to enter the city.

"How to do?"

"There are still seven or eight feet left, don't worry about it, just swim over there first!" Huang Tianyan said in a deep voice.

Ninety percent of them would be dead if they went back, so it might as well just take a gamble and swim there, perhaps the possibility of survival is greater.

Seeing that they had no intention of returning, the soldiers on the tower immediately raised their bows and arrows, and "swish" two arrows shot at everyone.

One of the arrows shot into the water, but the other arrow hit a person, and there was a scream of "ah".

They were a group of dozens of people. Although the river was spread out, the target was relatively too large. It was not surprising that they were shot.

"Brother, save me!"

The one who was shot was Huang Tianyan's brother, and one of the few survivors in the village.

Fearing that Huang Tianyan would be stupid, Zhang Ziming immediately said: "Everyone, hurry up and cross the river, otherwise you won't even think about crossing the river!"

But after his words fell, two arrows were shot from the city tower. Although both arrows were shot empty, they still brought a deterrent to everyone in the river.

At this moment, another scolding voice came from the city wall: "If you dare to go one step further, you will be killed without mercy!"

Looking up at the city wall, with the help of the firelight, you can see clearly that there are already more than a dozen soldiers with bows and arrows standing on it.

Seeing that the crowd still had no intention of returning, the soldiers on the tower stopped holding back their hands and shot arrows non-stop.

Under the impact of this intensity, five or six people were shot and killed in a row, and they sank into the water after screaming and thumping a few times.

At this time, Huang Tianyan said: "There are still eight or nine feet ahead, we can't make it through!"

What he said was the truth, they were three or four zhang away from the shore now, and it would be safer to go back the same way.

Although he was not reconciled in his heart, Zhang Ziming could only succumb to the reality in the current situation.

"Master Jun, let's go back...don't shoot!"

When Huang Tianyan shouted, there was still a piercing sound in the air, forcing them to go ashore quickly.

On the city wall, the soldiers stopped shooting after watching Huang Tianyan and his party return.

Hurriedly returning to Anshang, Huang Tianyan and his party were all drenched like soaked rats, looking extremely embarrassed.

"What should I do?" Zhang Ziming asked in a deep voice, but his eyes were fixed on the direction of the city wall.

"Since you can't enter the city, you have to quickly find a place where you can hold on. I guess...the tide of corpses is coming soon!" Huang Tianyan's expression was extremely ugly.

Corpse wave?This is another new word that Zhang Ziming heard.

Seeing his doubts, Huang Tianyan said with fear: "This tide of corpses... is definitely the scariest thing in the world!"

"Brother Zhang, there are so many people here that it's not suitable to stay for a long time, let's find a place to avoid disaster!" Huang Tianyan said with a sense of loneliness.

These days, he was on the run all the way, finally came across a safe city, who knew it would be such a result, huge disappointment lingered in Huang Tianyan's heart.

But since this life is still there, he will not give up easily, so he immediately thought of avoiding the tide of corpses.

"If you're outside the city, find a house with walls first, this kind of house may last for three to five days!"

While speaking, Huang Tianyan walked to the distance first, and his subordinates followed unswervingly, leaving Zhang Ziming and his subordinates to stay where they were.

"Brother, what shall we do next?" A man asked.

At this moment, Zhang Ziming was also extremely conflicted. On the one hand, he still wanted to enter the city, but now he couldn't.

At this moment, there was commotion from the suspension bridge not far away, and the voice of someone exclaiming "there is a monster" came through.

Zhang Ziming's expression changed drastically. It was really not suitable to stay here for a long time, so his hesitation was immediately dispelled, and he immediately followed Huang Tianyan's pace.

On the bank of the moat outside Yongning Gate, thousands of people uttered terrified screams and fled in all directions.

There have been hundreds of monsters in the distance from the first one or two, and the number is still increasing.

The crowd fled in all directions. They had encountered zombies before, and they had all experienced the horror of this thing.

Zombies came flying from a distance, so most of the people chose to jump into the river directly. They were forced to do nothing.

As long as one person jumps, a chain reaction will be triggered immediately. Compared with the horrific zombies that slander from afar, even people who can't swim will jump like a fool.

At the gate of Yongning, Qianhu Wang Cheng shouted at the soldiers: "Shoot me, shoot them quickly!"

No one is allowed to enter the city. This is the death order of the Dusi Yamen.

But Wang Cheng knew better that this was also the meaning of the Longyou government and the nobles of Yuanyang.

With Prince Yong's Mansion keeping silent about this, the agreement reached among the three is the iron rule that must be implemented.

After all, they are fellow villagers, and the soldiers seemed a little hesitant to shoot the opponent directly, and they didn't know how many people they would kill at this moment.

"They're all fucking deaf? If one of them is bitten by a monster, it will be a catastrophe if they sneak into the city. Don't you think your family will be in danger?" Wang Cheng scolded.

After some reasoning, the soldiers could only draw their bows and set up arrows, aiming at the people crossing the river and shooting.

But this is not very useful, the people are still scrambling to jump into the river, nearly a thousand people splashed in the river, and soon someone climbed to the other side.

At this moment, hundreds of those who were still on the shore fleeing for their lives were killed by the zombies. It is foreseeable that more people will die in the future.

But what's really scary is that there are more zombies rushing over in the night, all of which were attracted by the people who left the city today.

"Ouch..."

Zombies are like a wave, which is exactly what Huang Tianyan said. What is displayed in front of Wang Cheng now is a wave of corpses that is hard to see the boundary.

"Have you notified the government? Why hasn't the help they sent yet arrived?" Wang Cheng asked angrily.

The subordinate behind him quickly replied: "My lord, I have sent someone there, and it should be here soon!"

The city wall of Yuanyang City is too long, if there is not enough manpower, it will be impossible to defend.
