The end of the world begins with the king

Chapter 71 Monsters
Kong Yuan passed the position of host to his disciples?Could it be that the old monk was scared out of his wits after seeing the ferocity of the monster?

Just as Zhao Yanxun was sighing, an idea popped up in his heart.

Wolong Temple is a famous temple in Longyou, and the old monk Kongyuan is a well-known eminent monk. Such people have great appeal.

That's why, when Zhao Yanxun forcibly entered the forbidden area of ​​Wolong Temple, he was not reckless. At the beginning, he was concerned about the reputation of the old monk.

But now it seems that this reputation can be used.

The old monk knew about the existence of zombies, and even more about the dangers of zombies.

If he could be invited to Yuanyang Mansion, and he would explain the existence of zombies to the government, causing the government to take the initiative to respond, this would be a wonderful move.

Thinking of this, Zhao Yanxun put down the porcelain bowl with a "snap", startling Xue Baojun who was beside him.

"Okay... let's do it like this!" Zhao Yanxun whispered, with an unconcealable smile in his eyes.

The huge emotional reversal before and after made Xue Baojun guess whether her husband was confused.

Look at the current palace, it has been demolished and built inside and out, and a magnificent and noble palace has been changed into what it is today...

Is the prince crazy?

Thinking of this, Xue Baoyun was shocked. No matter how hard she and Concubine Duan worked hard with such a husband, they might not be able to support the crown prince.

That's right, even now, Xue Baojun still has such thoughts.

So much so that at this moment, Xue Baoyun couldn't help asking: "My lord, are you alright?"

I was obviously very happy, why was I asked if I was okay?Doubts arose in Zhao Yanxun's heart.

"It's nothing, I just suddenly missed the old monk Kong Yuan. Hearing that he stepped down from the position of abbot, I wanted to pick him up to live in the palace for a few days!"

Hearing what Zhao Yanxu said, Xue Baojun became even more worried. How could Haoduandan pick up a monk to stay?
In Xue Baojun's eyes, all Zhao Yanxun's orders from the beginning to the end seemed messy and unreasonable.

"My lord, did you invite Master Kong Yuan to deal with those monsters?" Xue Baoyun asked tentatively.

Zhao Yanxun's eyes lit up, and he immediately asked: "How does Aifei know?"

Xue Baoyun's face froze, and he guessed right.

As for why Xue Baojun knew, it is actually not difficult to guess at all.

Because whether it's building soldiers, storing food, rebuilding the palace... Zhao Yanxun always uses dealing with monsters as an excuse.

In order to maintain the relationship between husband and wife, the truth must never be told, so Xue Baoyun explained: "The concubine guessed randomly!"

Just as Zhao Yanxun was about to order someone to go to Yuntang Mountain to ask for Kongyuan, there was a shrill cry from outside the hall.

"My lord... something is wrong!"

In the palace, in order to maintain order after the end of the world, Zhao Yanxun set up extremely strict regulations.

It was the first time that such crying outside the hall had happened.

Seeing the little eunuch on duty outside hurried in, Zhao Yanxun immediately asked with a cold face: "What's going on?"

The little eunuch also knew that something was wrong at this moment, so he immediately knelt on the ground and said: "Report to the lord, Wang Zongwang's hundred households are begging to see him outside, and before the servants and maidservants have time to report, he shouted outside!"

These words picked him up completely, which shows that the little eunuch has a delicate mind.

Wang Zong is a simple and honest person, usually he would not do such outrageous things, there must be demons when things go wrong.

Zhao Yanxun got up from the chair and walked slowly outside the hall.

Xue Baoyun was also curious at the moment, so he followed Zhao Yanxun to the inside of the gate, and looked outside through the window screen.

But at the bottom of the steps outside the main hall, a man dressed in an official uniform from a hundred households was kneeling on the ground at the moment.

Walking out of the main hall, what Zhao Yanxun saw was the extremely embarrassed Wang Zong.

"What's going on?" Zhao Yanxun asked in a deep voice.

"My lord, we found a monster in the northeast of Yuanyang... There were three brothers who were dragged away by the monster!" After saying this, Wang Zong kowtowed to the ground.

"The strange minister... The strange minister did not protect them, and please punish them, Your Highness!"

Just now it was said that no monster appeared, now Wang Zong brought back the news, Zhao Yanxun really didn't know whether to cry or laugh.

It is very regrettable to lose a few guards. These are the elite of the imperial guards in the Beijing camp, and every death means one less.

Zhao Yanxun stepped down the steps, kicked Wang Zong to the ground, and scolded at the same time: "If you do this, the dead brother will be able to come back to life?"

After being reprimanded suddenly by Zhao Yanxun, Wang Zongcai regained some clarity, but his whole body was quite slumped.

This depression is not only due to the death of a brother in his hands, but also the psychological shadow caused by the great terror.

At this moment, Zhao Yanxun didn't urge him, and only after Wang Zong's mood gradually stabilized did he personally step forward to help him up.

"What's going on?" Zhao Yanxun asked in a deep voice.

After Wang Zong lowered his head, he replied: "My lord, I should take people out to search for monsters these two days!"

"According to the previous division, I took the brothers under my command to fifty miles northeast of Yuanyang, and used this to search north!"

"I divided the team into ten teams. The team I was staying in, when I searched for seven or eight miles... came across a Zhuangzi!"

Seeing Wang Zong's unnatural expression, Zhao Yanxun knew that the problem probably came from this Zhuangzi.

But he still didn't urge him, he just waited for Wang Zong to organize the word order, and then spoke slowly.

"According to the prince's request, when encountering this kind of Zhuangzi, we have to go in and check..."

"This Zhuangzi is different from other places. It's nothing more than a high-walled courtyard, but there is no one around!"

Hearing this, Zhao Yanxun was sure that there were zombies in that village.

"There is no one around, Zhuangzi's gate is closed, and the interior is silent...The minister then ordered the three brothers to climb over the wall and enter to investigate the situation inside!"

Speaking of this, Wang Zong's tone became anxious: "But... those three brothers just climbed into the wall..."

"Inside, there were screams from inside, and then there were endless roars..."

The further we talked, the more excited Wang Zong became.

"Then I climbed to the top of the wall myself, and saw... within the courtyard wall, there are dozens of monsters as far as the eye can see, and the three brothers are being bitten by them!"

"I just listened to them shouting, my lord, save me, my lord, save me..."

"Kechen, I can't save them!"

Zhao Yanxun can imagine how tragic the situation was.

After a few breaths of silence, Zhao Yanxun asked: "About how many monsters are there in that village?"

After Wang Zong thought for a while, he said, "About... there are thirty or forty of them!"

Thirty or forty, not to mention that there are less than ten people around Wang Zong, even if there are fifty or sixty, he can't fight these zombies head-on.

"There are so many monsters inside, how do you deal with them?" Zhao Yanxun then asked.

"I couldn't save those brothers, so I thought about burning the village with a fire, but before I could act, I heard a warning from my brothers outside..."

"It turns out that there are also monsters outside that village, maybe they were resting, and they came out when they heard the sound!"

Hearing this, Zhao Yanxun asked, "So you just withdrew?"

"Withdrawal" is a better way to say it, Zhao Yanxun wants to take care of Wang Zong's face.

"I threw a handful of fire into it, but I didn't know if it was gone... Then I ran away with my brothers!"

"Your team encountered a monster, how are the other teams doing?" Zhao Yanxun asked in a deep voice.

"Please forgive me, my lord. I am afraid that my brothers will make mistakes again, so I am anxious that all my brothers will withdraw!"

After saying this, Wang Zong knelt down on the ground again.
