Infinite: die ten times first to add to the fun

Gu Ming continued to follow the traces, and finally when he was approaching the next village, he heard the sound of fighting inside.

Gu Ming and the remaining soldier rushed in without saying a word, but when they arrived, the battle was nearing its end.

After all, tens of thousands of people are more than enough to deal with the zombies in a village.

They did not succeed in entering. When they were outside the village, they were stopped by soldiers on guard. Li Suifeng leaned against a tree in boredom, with his hands folded across his chest and playing with stones with his toes.

After a while, General Zhao came out with his people.

General Zhao and Gu Ming know each other, but their relationship is not very good.

Today's emperor is sensitive and suspicious, so he has killed many civil servants and military generals. It is also difficult to see the civil servants and military officers enjoying themselves harmoniously, and it is even more difficult to see the civil and military officers having friendship in private.

What he likes to hear most is when the two sides are quarreling, and it's best if a few of them are carried off after going to court.

Gu Ming is only twenty-five this year, but because of his outstanding intelligence, he won the first prize in the imperial court in the eighteenth year. However, he was too smart, which made the emperor jealous, and he was dismissed five years ago. It was not easy to get from a small border town to Nanwan.

I met General Zhao five years ago in the capital and even had a quarrel, but we haven't seen each other for five years now.

Nowadays, when the old friends meet each other, they just smile helplessly at each other. There is no tit-for-tat confrontation that led to red-faced arguments or even fights in the court.

"General Zhao has heard about it for a long time, but he has never been able to go to see him."

General Zhao's real name is Zhao Sheng. Hearing this, he just smiled bitterly and helplessly: "Does that still qualify him as a general?"

The ancestors of the Zhao family fought with the emperor. Even Zhao Sheng's father was a general who followed the late emperor. Zhao Sheng himself was not bad in talent. When he was a child, he was praised by the late emperor as a young talent.

He followed his father on the battlefield at the age of thirteen and killed countless enemies. He truly rose from the rank of soldier to general.

It's just that the country is now stable, and those heroes who killed the enemy for the country will also be punished.

Zhao Sheng waved his hand openly: "Forget it, don't mention this, is Brother Gu from the city?"

Gu Ming's joy at seeing his old friend faded away, and the expression on his face became serious: "Yes, the current situation in the city is not optimistic."

Zhao Sheng: "Originally, we could arrive at Nanwan City at Chenshi (nine to ten o'clock), but..."

He clenched his fists, a look of sadness flashed across his face.

The Zhao army has been suppressed over the years. From an army of one million at the beginning, to less than 100,000 today, after this epidemic, the number of people left is more than 48,000. Just in the battle after dark yesterday, No less than a thousand people died.

How can he not feel sad when these numbers are reported?

Gu Ming was silent for a while and comforted: "It will be fine."

Zhao Sheng naturally would not wallow in grief for too long. He quickly wiped his face and said: "Brother Gu, please come in quickly."

Gu Ming said: "Don't worry, I will introduce two people to General Zhao."

General Zhao was born in the military, so he naturally saw the two figures leaning under the tree not far away from the beginning, but Gu Ming didn't take the initiative to mention them, so he just pretended that he didn't see them.

Now that he said it, General Zhao naturally answered and asked doubtfully: "Who are these two?"

In fact, Gu Ming himself didn't know how to introduce them. He just knew that Li Suifeng's surname was Li and Xing Jue's surname was Xing. He then said that the two of them were very powerful and came from some of the biggest families in the world.

What Li Suifeng said casually yesterday naturally reached Gu Ming's ears, but the world is complicated and mysterious, and the strange things about Li Suifeng and Xing Jue couldn't figure out the origin, so naturally they had no choice but to believe her.

Zhao Sheng's eyes were full of brilliance, and what he was thinking in his mind was not known to outsiders. He cupped his fists and performed a Jianghu salute to Li Suifeng, saying thank you: "Thank you two knights for being willing to help."

He also understood that Gu Ming must have some intention in introducing these two people to him. After all, the person who knows you best is always your opponent.

Although a large part of the quarrels in the court were tacit to each other, even if they were arguing, they could also understand each other's character from the words of each other.

So he lowered his stance.

Li Suifeng also made a nondescript gesture of cupping his arms, but there was a hint of perfunctoryness in his movements.

Zhao Sheng simply didn't care, and instead enthusiastically invited Li Suifeng in.

The zombies in this village have been cleared away, the corpses are piled together, and the soldiers who were injured in the battle are tied up with ropes, and there is a person holding a weapon standing next to each person.

They were holding bright swords in their hands, and those who were tied and sitting on the ground were smiling and talking and laughing, but those who were standing had a trace of depression and gloom on their faces.

Li Suifeng walked all the way in and found that the military discipline inside was strict. Although they had just experienced a battle, the order was in good order.

There were people dressed like counselors who were calming the frightened people, and there were also people who were walking in and out of the house, carrying useful supplies.

Zhao Sheng led them all the way to an earthen house with a courtyard, where generals of all sizes were sitting on the floor.

Zhao Sheng should have been here before, but when they arrived, they were called out temporarily.

Zhao Sheng pointed to a few empty seats for them to sit down, and he laughed loudly and sat at the top: "We are all our own people. There is no need to shy away from talking about things."

His words were a reminder to Gu Ming and others.

Gu Ming quickly thought of the headless corpse he saw in front of the barracks, thinking that it was the 'supervisor' of Zhao Sheng's army.

The emperor was suspicious, and it was certainly impossible to let a hundred thousand soldiers and horses be so close to the capital. Some people were placed in the army as supervisors to monitor the movements of the army at all times.

These people usually use chicken feathers as arrows and give random orders without knowing anything. I am afraid that Zhao Sheng has been patient for a long time and now he can just find an excuse to kill people.

Anyway, so many people died in the army, who knows if they were eaten by that zombie.

As soon as Zhao Sheng said these words, everyone present felt confident and began to greet each other.

However, the pleasantries didn't last long. We got to know each other briefly and then got down to business.

Li Suifeng was not interested in their plan. He seemed to be staring into space in a daze, but in fact he had already turned on his optical brain to play with it.

The optical brain is directly connected to her brain, and she does not need to use her hands to operate anything. Li Suifeng is just used to it.

To people other than Xing Jue, she was just in a daze.

It was obvious that she didn't like these scenes, so I didn't give her a thumbs-up.

I have been wondering for a long time whether the soldiers in this kind of world know martial arts, but if the plot requires it, most of them do, but they are not strong.
