【Chapter 472, Small Town】

A large number of zombies are getting closer and closer to everyone. Xiao Lou visually estimated that the number of zombies is at least tens of thousands. Moreover, these zombies are "dead things". They do not suffer from controls such as dizziness and sleepiness, and their attack power is very high. They can be forced out. Encirclement is the last resort. If your teammates are injured or have their necks broken by a zombie during the process, it's no joke!

If you can avoid fighting, try to avoid fighting. Unfortunately, there is an abyss behind them now, with no way out. Flying cards are not enough if you want to fly through the air...

At the critical moment, Xiao Lou's mind was spinning rapidly, thinking of countermeasures.

Ye Qi simply took out the piano and said: "Professor Xiao, I will try to delay it for a while!"

The control effect of the piano is "immobilization". Just like the [Nine Palaces] card in the low-level secret room, undead creatures can also be controlled by immobilization.

Unfortunately, the piano is only 100 meters away, and the zombies in front of it are endless and far beyond the controllable range of 100 meters. But at least Ye Qi can immobilize nearby zombies and buy time for his teammates.

Ye Qi sat in front of the team and played piano music. The heavy rain pounded on the piano. Ye Qi was soaked and his hands were stained with water. However, he still tried to stay calm and played the music correctly.

The zombies in front were indeed frozen in place as if they had been "pointed".

Ye Qi said: "I can play this piece of music for 10 minutes. It is effective against zombies. Everyone, please think of a way!"

Xiao Lou looked back at the cliff behind him - it was bottomless, and there seemed to be a mist lingering below.

In TV dramas and martial arts novels, when the protagonists are forced to the edge of a cliff, they usually choose to jump off the cliff. Because they follow the "law of the protagonist's immortality", the protagonist after jumping off the cliff will either meet an outsider, a peerless magician, or be helped by a noble person.

Now instead of filming TV, just jump down and they can be wiped out in an instant.

Xiao Lou looked around quickly. The mass grave was actually located on the top of a mountain. When they fled just now, they tried to find a direction with fewer tombstones, but they fell into the trap. It was true that they escaped from the mass grave, but they ran to the cliff. At the highest point, the way was blocked by a cliff.

At this time, it is not advisable to turn around and run in the opposite direction, as all the zombies have been attracted.

Can only rely on group teleportation.

Xiao Lou took a deep breath, looked at Lu Jiuchuan and said: "Brother Jiu, you are the only one who can avoid the zombies and fly at high altitude. We can try to hold off these zombies and buy you time. Please ride the Suzaku to the cliff." Let’s investigate below and once we find a safe place, use Tao Yuanming’s Peach Blossom Spring to pull us there!”

After saying that, he took out the [Tao Yuanming] card from the card bag and threw it to Lu Jiuchuan.

At the same time, he handed over [Qin Guan] to Yu Hanjiang and asked him to connect with Brother Jiu so that Yu Hanjiang could know immediately what Lu Jiuchuan discovered.

Lu Jiuchuan rode Suzaku, leaned over to take the card, and said, "No problem! Xiao Tang will go with me. The drone can also conduct reconnaissance. Wait for us to come back!"

He didn't say any more nonsense, and gently touched Suzaku's back with his slender fingers. The fiery red bird accepted its owner's will, immediately spread its wings, and took Lu Jiuchuan to fly towards the other side of the cliff!

Suzaku recognized its master and only allowed Lu Jiuchuan to ride on it. Others could not ride on it. Tang Ci was held by Lu Jiuchuan with one hand and flew together.

Suzaku quickly flew high into the sky. Only the waist of Tang Ci's body was tightly held by Lu Jiuchuan's arms, and his legs were completely suspended in the air. This made him feel very insecure. He would fall at any time if Lu Jiuchuan's arms let go.

Tang Ci nervously grabbed Lu Jiuchuan's arm.

Realizing that Tang Ci was holding on to him tightly, as if grasping a life-saving straw, Lu Jiuchuan could not help but comfort him softly: "Don't be afraid, you are so light, holding you with one hand is like holding a cat." , won’t let you fall.”

Tang Ci said displeased: "What kind of cat? I weigh 130 pounds, a standard weight."

Lu Jiuchuan smiled softly and stopped making jokes to make him angry. He changed the subject and said, "Take a drone to see what's going on on this cliff?"

Without his reminder, Tang Ci had already summoned a drone to take pictures of the surrounding environment.

Looking down under the light of the night pearl, I saw that the entire mountain top was crowded with zombies. His teammates were surrounded by zombies. The lantern tree placed by Xiao Lou in the mass grave was crumbling in the violent storm. The lantern tree is also surrounded by zombies.

The number of zombies frightened Tang Ci. He said: "Zombies are all produced by the transformation of dead people. It is incredible that so many people are buried in mass graves. The background of this secret room should not be the modern world... It is very possible Is it ancient times?”

Lu Jiuchuan agreed: "Yes. In ancient wars and plagues, an entire village would often die in one death. It makes sense that tens of thousands of corpses would be dumped in mass graves. What about the terrain of the cliff? Can it be observed by a drone?"

Tang Ci said: "The light is too dark, let's fly down and have a look."

Lu Jiuchuan rode the Suzaku and swooped down, letting the Suzaku fly at a low altitude about 10 meters above the ground. In this way, Tang Ci could clearly observe the situation on the ground and ensure safety. Zombies could not fly, even if they saw After reaching the light, I raised my head and looked directly at them, but I still couldn't reach them.

Soon, the two of them arrived near where the [Flower Lantern Tree] had been placed. Tang Ci continued to monitor the distance between himself and the Lantern Tree, flying in the opposite direction.

Just now, in order to wait for his teammates, Lu Jiuchuan deliberately slowed down Suzaku's flying speed.

In fact, Suzaku flying at full speed was as fast as lightning. In the blink of an eye, Suzaku led them away from the mass grave in the opposite direction.

Tang Ci quickly analyzed the terrain of the mass graves through the footage taken by the drone. He said: "The mountain is extremely steep. A large area on the top of the mountain has become a mass grave for corpses. The top is The cliff is vertically downward at 90 degrees and has no bottom. It is initially estimated that the height of the cliff is more than 3,000 meters. The bottom of the cliff is full of gravel. If you jump off, you will be smashed into a pulp."

Lu Jiuchuan raised his eyebrows and said: "Jumping off a cliff and not dying is a scene in the TV series. Let's find a place to stay as soon as possible."

At this moment, a bolt of lightning suddenly pierced the night sky, and Suzaku's wings were almost hit by the lightning. Fortunately, Lu Jiuchuan reacted quickly enough and rode the Suzaku to escape the lightning. He said to Yu Hanjiang with clear intentions: "Xiao Tang and I have already gone down the mountain. How is the situation over there?"

Yu Hanjiang said: "Ye Qi is still playing the piano, and the zombie swarm is temporarily under control..."

Before he could finish his words, a blast of thunder nearly shattered everyone's eardrums, followed immediately by rumbles of thunder, completely covering the sound of the piano music.

The zombies seemed to have been awakened by a shock, and they jumped towards Ye Qi with their pale hands——

Ye Qi's expression changed and he shouted loudly: "Oops! The sound of the piano was covered by thunder, and the zombie swarm was out of control!"

The thunder was so loud that you had to shout to speak, otherwise your teammates wouldn't hear you at all.

Xiao Lou took out the team voice headphones and quickly distributed them to everyone, asking everyone to hold down the headphones and speak. The sound conduction placed in the ears will be clearer and the interference of thunder can be avoided as much as possible.

He turned around and saw that the zombies had fully awakened, and pairs of dead fish eyes were staring at them, jumping and approaching them quickly.

The piano control relies on the rhythm. Now that the rhythm is covered by thunder, the zombies can no longer be immobilized. Li Qingzhao's slow-controlled voice also requires recitation of words, and the piano sound cannot be heard, so Li Qingzhao's voice is of course useless.

Xiao Lou took a deep breath, held down his earphones and said, "Everyone, cover me!"

Gui Yuanzhang understood, and immediately took out his writing brush and swung it forward. Affected by the floating wind, the rainwater hit the zombie group with a "crash" sound, and the zombies that rushed towards him were pushed back five meters!

Lao Mo had a sharp eye and quick hands. After Senior Gui repelled the zombies, he built a row of marble walls directly in front of the zombies.

It was the first time that everyone saw Lao Mo building a wall at such a fast speed.

Marble bricks were stacked one after another like building blocks. In a blink of an eye, he built a huge wall about 10 meters long and 5 meters high, stopping the zombies!

There were only a limited number of marble tiles, and there was only so much wall he could build.

Lao Mo touched the rainwater on his face and said nervously: "It won't take long, the zombies should be able to climb over the wall."

Xiao Lou looked serious: "I know. Everyone, step back and come to me!"

Everyone turned around and saw that Xiao Lou took out the [Compass] card and drew a large circle with a diameter of about 10 meters around it, enveloping all his teammates in this circle.

Ye Qi's eyes lit up: "Is it the invincible circle of the compass?"

"Yes, but you can only hold on for 10 minutes." Xiao Lou put away the compass, looked at Yu Hanjiang and said, "Let Brother Jiu and the others hurry up. They must find a foothold within 10 minutes and open a peach blossom garden to attract people. Otherwise, we will be Overwhelmed by the zombie swarm!"

"Understood." Yu Hanjiang glanced at the zombies climbing over the wall with a sullen expression, and said thoughtfully, "Brother, Xiao Lou has opened the invincible circle of the compass. There are only 10 minutes. Find a safe place as soon as possible!"

"Okay, we've gone down the mountain!"

Lu Jiuchuan and Tang Ci had already left the cliff where the mass graves were located. They saw a dense forest. The heavy rain beat on the leaves, making a rustling sound. There were no animals in the woods. Even if there were, most of them Animals don't wander out during heavy rains either.

Lu Jiuchuan let the Suzaku fly over the treetops and asked in a low voice: "Xiao Tang, is this forest safe?"

Tang Ci said: "It's raining heavily now. It's better for us not to spend the night in the woods. If we are surrounded by wild beasts or snakes, it will be very troublesome. Try to find a flat ground."

Lu Jiuchuan said: "Okay, then I will fly directly through the woods."

The Suzaku flapped its wings and flew quickly through the woods.

Just as lightning flashed across the sky, unexpectedly, the two of them saw a small town not far ahead.

Under the illumination of lightning, the buildings with green tiles and white walls in the town clearly appeared before their eyes. The wide road was paved with flat bluestone slabs. After being washed away by the heavy rain, the bluestone slabs were so clean that they were spotless. The rain hits the stone slabs, making a rhythmic and sweet sound. Lanterns hanging on both sides of the road swayed in the rainy night.

The stormy town was so quiet that there was no sound.

There are no lights on in all the houses. It is possible that the residents of the town have gone to bed?

Another bolt of lightning struck, and the two clearly saw three words engraved on the stone tablet at the door - Qingfeng Town.

Lu Jiuchuan and Tang Ci looked at each other, and the latter said softly: "Brother Jiu, a mass grave was found nearby. There must be something weird in Qingfeng Town. Do we want to go in? Or spend the night outside the town first?"

At the same time, the top of the mountain.

Countless zombies have surrounded everyone in Xiao Lou. The invincible circle created by Compass will block all attacks. The zombies are lying on a transparent barrier and cannot get closer. They can only stare at Xiao Lou and the others with wide eyes...

Although the inside of the compass circle is absolutely safe, the entire oval "boundary" is covered with zombies.

Corpses, those zombies are so close in front of you, some have their tongues extended, or they have blood in their mouths. This scene is really scary.

Chu Huaying frowned and turned his head away, not wanting to look anymore.

Shao Qingge simply closed his eyes and silently recited the core values ​​of socialism in his heart.

Ye Qi looked around and observed the zombies while analyzing: "Do you think the zombies in the mass graves were simply created by the gatekeepers to disgust us, or are they related to the plot puzzle this time?"

Xiao Lou looked thoughtfully at the clothes of the zombies - the bright red wedding dresses, the children's hair buns, and the men all had long hair. Although the body had been buried underground for a long time and the clothes were somewhat torn, the clothes looked like those of ancient times.

Xiao Loudao: "Zombies have already appeared in Spades 2, and there will be another wave of zombies in level K. The gatekeepers probably won't let us fight monsters at the beginning. I suspect that there is something wrong with the origin of these zombies, nearby villages, or Something may have happened in this small town.”

Yu Hanjiang agreed: "Well, these zombies are weird. After all, this is a four-in-one secret room. We won't just be allowed to escape for our lives. Maybe we will have to solve some puzzles."

The compass time was almost up. When Xiao Lou saw that there were 30 seconds left on the countdown, he couldn't help but become nervous: "What's going on with Brother Ninth? Compass only has 30 seconds left!"

As soon as he finished speaking, an invitation to the Peach Blossom Spring popped up in front of everyone's eyes.

Fortunately I caught up! Xiao Lou breathed a sigh of relief and pressed Agree.

The scene in front of him suddenly flashed, and everyone appeared collectively under the familiar peach blossom tree.

Tang Ci looked at his teammates and asked, "Is everything okay?"

Xiao Lou shook his head: "We used various methods to stop the zombies, and no one was injured."

Lu Jiuchuan took a step forward and said: "Xiao Tang and I found a small town at the foot of the mountain called Qingfeng Town. We don't know what's going on inside the town, so we don't dare to go in for the time being. We first put a peach blossom garden outside the town. Pull you over here.”

Everyone looked at each other - Xiao Lou was indeed right.

Ye Qi wondered: "Could it be that, as Professor Xiao said, the origin of those zombies is related to this town?"

Lu Jiuchuan nodded: "We have the same suspicion. Do you want to go in and check it out?"

Xiao Lou took everyone out of the Peach Blossom Spring and saw the "Qingfeng Town" that Lu Jiuchuan said.

Under the heavy rain late at night, there was not a single pedestrian or the sound of any animals on the streets of the entire town. It was eerily quiet.

Yu Hanjiang said: "Everyone put on the invisibility cloak and go in to take a look. If something goes wrong, return to the Peach Blossom Garden immediately."
