The end of the world begins with the king

Chapter 28 Fog

The man Zhao Yanxun recruited as a guide was called Chen Dazhu. The reason why he was so named was because his father beat a big wild boar the day before he was born.

People in the mountains don't pay much attention to it. They just think that Big Pig is a lucky draw, so they just use it as a name.

Chen Dazhu's home is outside the mountains, which is rare among hunters. Generally speaking, these hunters live in deep mountains.

For example, Wu Laosan, whom Zhao Yanxun was looking for, lived deep in the mountains.

According to Chen Dazhu's estimation, even if the trip goes well, it will take at least two hours.

Looking up at the sky, Zhao Yanxun was sure that it was already night at Wu Laoliu's house.

In fact, the straight-line distance from Ji Shizhai to Wu Laoliu's house is not too far, but it is because of the mountain road that the distance is so long.

Entering the depths of the mountain forest, the road had come to an end, so Zhao Yanxun and his party had no choice but to dismount.

"My lord, just rest here and leave the matter to the minister!" Xu Hong seemed to share the master's worries.

Sitting on the horseback, Zhao Yanxun looked at the dark forest in front of him, and in front of him was the rugged and difficult path.

Raising his hand to raise the bamboo hat, Zhao Yanxun said in a deep voice, "Leave two people to watch the horses, and the others will follow me into the mountain!"

This time Xu Hong learned his lesson, instead of arguing with Zhao Yanxun, he ordered the two of them to stay.

As Zhao Yanxun dismounted, the rest of the guards also dismounted.

Stepping on the muddy ground, Zhao Yanxun lifted the hem of his robe and walked up the path first.

"Protect the prince!" Xu Hong hurriedly greeted.

As the guide, Chen Dazhu was walking in front of the team at this moment. A team of more than 20 people was ten feet long after being pulled apart.

Trekking on the mountain road, Zhao Yanxun looked extremely relaxed, which was the result of the system upgrading his legs.

An extra one hundred catties of strength was enough to make Zhao Yanxun walk like flying, and it only took less than [-]% of his strength.

But his performance really surprised the guards, and at the same time aroused a sense of admiration.

Zhao Yanxun, who is born noble, is not inferior to them in physical strength, which really refreshed their cognition.

The light rain is still falling, but at this time there is still fog in the mountains, if there is no guide, you will get lost.

"My lord, Wu Lao Liu lives in such a ghostly place. I'm afraid that his family will be killed, and no one will know to collect the corpse!" Xu Hong said.

Zhao Yanxun just smiled, this situation is just the best, otherwise Wu Laoliu's family will harm many people.

After driving forward for half an hour, I finally heard Chen Dazhu say: "It's just ahead, that's their yard!"

Chen Dazhu's words broke the silence in the mountains, but made Zhao Yanxun's face change.

He lowered his voice and scolded, "Shut up!"

Zhao Yanxun did see the yard in front of him, but at this moment there was smoke in the mountains, which greatly hindered his sight.

If all Wu Laoliu's family mutated, what would happen if these zombies hiding in the dark were attracted by the sound and suddenly came out and bit someone?
It is based on this that Zhao Yanxun is so angry at this moment.

After being reprimanded, Chen Dazhu knelt on the ground with a plop, and quickly kowtowed to beg for mercy.

Seeing that Zhao Yanxun was frowning tightly, Xu Hong stepped forward and slapped him, forcing the guy to shut up.

After calling everyone to get closer, Zhao Yanxun said: "I heard you clearly, you must be careful again and again, and you must not be bitten or scratched by monsters, otherwise you will definitely die!"

Seeing Zhao Yanxun's serious words, although the guards didn't take it seriously, they became serious on the surface.

They formed a formation and moved forward slowly under Zhao Yanxun's command, approaching Wu Laoliu's yard step by step, while Chen Dazhu was left in place by them.

This is a simple yard, and the walls of the yard are fences made of thick solid wood, the purpose of which is to ward off wild animals.

Through the gap between the fences, you can see the situation in the yard, which can be summed up in one word "chaos".

This gave Zhao Yanxun a bad feeling that everyone in the Wu family might have mutated.

Signaling the team to stop, Zhao Yanxun picked up two stones from the ground, ordered the guards to be on guard again, and then threw the stones into the yard.

The sound of the stone hitting the window was extremely harsh in the silence.

Under the current weird situation, the guards' hands holding the knives were slightly sweating, and they stared intently at the courtyard.

At this moment, a guard slipped and fell to the ground, causing the entire team to lose their formation.

Zhao Yanxun was furious. Speaking of which, this group of people is also the elite of the Forbidden Army, how could their current performance be so useless.

In fact, this is not to blame the guards. In the current weird atmosphere, everyone is in a state of high tension, and it is reasonable to overreact.

But the chaos only lasted for a few breaths, and the guards quickly recovered their formation.

At this moment, the fog was getting thicker, and their sight was further affected, but there was still no movement in the yard.

"My lord, you shouldn't be inside!" Xu Hong said in a low voice.

Zhao Yanxun nodded, but he still didn't intend to give up, so he ordered two guards to enter the courtyard to check.

The two guards didn't take it seriously, and walked slowly into the yard with their knives in hand.

But when they just walked into the yard, before they had time to search room by room, Zhao Yanxun heard a shrill scream from behind.

Everyone turned to the rear one after another, and at this moment everyone realized that something had happened.

"My lord...it's Chen Dazhu's voice!" Xu Hong's face was gloomy, obviously feeling the danger.

Chen Dazhu was only four or five feet away from them, but because of the thick fog in the mountains and the dark sky at the moment, Zhao Yanxun couldn't see Chen Dazhu's situation clearly at all.

Clenching the steel knife tightly in his hand, Zhao Yanxun swallowed and said, "Don't panic, no matter how the monsters appear, we aim to cut off their necks and heads!"

Then, they slowly moved towards Chen Dazhu's direction.

In the process of approaching, Zhao Yanxun heard the sound of animals biting, which made him feel mixed.

Finally, through the thick fog, they saw a thin figure, who was crouching on the ground and biting a corpse.

Seeing the monster again, most of the guards showed eager expressions, the monster was just a child.

That's right, upon hearing the movement behind him, the monster turned its head slowly, and its bloody face was exactly that of an eight or nine-year-old child.

It's just that most of the child's face was bitten off, and he was chewing the bloody flesh in his mouth, making the sound of "click, click, click".

This scene was extremely impactful, and the guards resisted the fear and vomiting, and only now did they see the terrifying side of the zombies.

"Cook him!" Zhao Yanxun ordered.

The rest of Wu Laoliu's family is still in the dark, so Zhao Yanxun will not do it himself, he must be ready to deal with surprise attacks at any time.

Experience points are important, but saving one's life is undoubtedly more important.

After he gave the order, several guards in front of him walked towards the little monster in unison.

Seeing a living person, the little zombie also stood up from the ground, and rushed towards the guards with small steps.

The result was doomed, several guards raised their knives and chopped the little zombie into several sections.

It can be said that the crisis was temporarily lifted. Several guards walked in front of Chen Dazhu, only to find that this guy was already dead.

"My lord, this man's neck was bitten off, and it looks like he was killed in one blow!" the guard whispered.

When a child of an old acquaintance appeared, normal people would not be on guard, so Chen Dazhu died just like that.

However, before Zhao Yanxun stepped forward to check, he heard hurried footsteps and intermittent roars from around him.
