Chapter 428: Living Dead(1/2)
"Your Majesty is still the same as before, and it makes people feel friendly."
Yue Feng sat on the chair and felt relieved.
In fact, when he received the news from his subordinates, he guessed that it was Li Yu who came to the military camp.
At that time, he was very nervous and didn't know how to meet the other person.
Whether it is history or reality, too many people will show different or even completely opposite personalities when their status leaps.
Yue Feng naturally believed in the character of his son, but he was very nervous before he could actually see the other person.
What if the young master really changed?
Fortunately, after the two met, the young master was still the same young master as before.
There was no change just because he became His Majesty.
Yue Feng hesitated, and finally he mustered up the courage to apologize: "Your Majesty, I am guilty. I have shaken your trust before I saw you."
He told the other party all the suspicions in his heart.
"You don't have to apologize, and you're not guilty." Li Yu shook his head gently, and his smile did not diminish at all. "Your guess is completely a normal reaction for a person. Although I am not generous, I will not be angry and blamed for a person's normal reaction."
Yue Feng was moved, left the seat, came to the center and knelt on one knee, clenched his fist with his right hand and hit his chest hard, making a muffled sound.
"I thank you for your trust. Your Majesty will not be shaken by anything in the future. You will always follow Your Majesty!"
Li Yu stood up, came to the other party, and helped him up with his own hands.
He gently patted the other person on the shoulder, and with the relationship between them, everything was indescribable.
Li Yu returned to the stage and pointed to the map on the wall and asked.
“Did you draw the route on this map?”
Yue Feng looked up and nodded, "It was painted by the empress."
Li Yu nodded, came to the main seat and sat down, stretched out his hand to show that he would sit in many places.
"Tell me what you think about sending troops in Yangzhou."
He looked at the other person and asked.
It was no longer a secret that the imperial court was preparing to use troops around.
...
Xunyang County, Yuning County.
There are few pedestrians on the streets of the county town, and the wreckage of various clothes and goods are scattered on the streets.
Some gray stone slabs were left with black and red blood.
Occasionally, a breeze blew, making a strange "whim" sound.
It was clearly daytime, but the entire street revealed a gloomy feeling.
On both sides of the street, basically all the shops have been closed.
There are only a few companies in Liao and are still doing business openly.
On the side of the road, the gate of an inn was half-closed.
On the red-edged and yellow-bottomed flag on the second floor, there are four bold and black characters "Fulai Inn" written on it.
The inn looked ordinary from the outside, but the half-closed door panel was filled with traces of sword chopping.
Hey! Hey!
In the lobby on the first floor, there were intermittent exhalations.
A young man in red silk clothes inside was kneeling on the ground and constantly scrubbing the floor with a wipe.
His eyebrows frowned and his expression was very focused. Because he tried too hard, his face looked a little red.
"Oh! I lost another twenty-seven taels of silver this month!"
At the counter on the first floor, a middle-aged man in gray cloth clothes was looking at the account book next to him while fingering his fingers.
He looked sad and sighed from time to time.
The sigh of the middle-aged man did not attract the attention of the young man who wiped the floor.
His eyes were extremely serious at this moment, and he kept rubbing the floor with a wet wipe.
I have no time at all and I don’t have the heart to pay attention to the things around me.
squeak!
The door of the inn suddenly opened, and two tall figures appeared under the light at the door.
"Is there anyone? Are there still living people?"
The two newcomers are both men, one looks younger and the other looks older.
They were all dressed in black, with a long sheathed knife on their waists, and the clothes on the other side were obviously swelling, and something seemed to be hidden under them.
One of the young men yelled at the empty inn just as they opened the door.
"Someone, somebody!"
A panicked male voice came from the direction of the counter.
A middle-aged man quickly stood up and hurried to the gate, closing the gate with a low movement.
After doing all this, the middle-aged man looked back at the two men dressed in a warrior. The swear words that had originally come to their throats turned into requests.
"My two heroes! You can't speak loudly here, otherwise we will all die here if we get monsters!"
When the warriors heard this, they looked at each other. The young man said proudly: "Don't panic, shopkeeper, no monster or monster is the opponent of our brother!"
"Now our brothers are hungry on the road. Come up quickly if you have any food here!"
The shopkeeper looked at the two of them with suspicion, hesitated for a long time, and then hurriedly said until the young man opposite showed displeasure.
"Two heroes, please forgive me. The store is small and profitable. Pay the money first and then cook."
"Please!" The young man frowned and looked at the shopkeeper with dissatisfaction for a few glances. Then he took out a silver ingot from his arms and threw it to the other party, and said unhappy.
"Hurry up and choose the best one. If it's slow, fool us and I'll kill you alive!"
"Yes!" The shopkeeper gently weighed the silver ingot, smiled happily and asked the waiter who was wiping the floor to greet him, and walked towards the kitchen himself.
The two warriors found a seat by the window and sat down. The waiter who had changed a cloth came over immediately.
"Two heroes, please have tea!"
The waiter poured tea for the two of them and prepared to leave.
"Wait, waiter, I'll ask you something. If you say it, the money will be yours."
The older man suddenly spoke.
He took out a piece of silver from his arms and threw it into his arms.
The waiter bit it immediately, and the dull expression on his face finally showed a smile, with a second expression.
"Hero, please ask, as long as the villain knows, everything says!"
The older man was slightly silent and asked, "After our brothers entered the city, they found that the street was dead. Apart from the army at the gate, there were not many living people. What happened in the city?"
Shh!
The waiter's face changed suddenly. He put his fingers beside his mouth and made a "shhh" move.

Xiao Er's voice was filled with obvious panic and his eyes kept looking out the window.
He breathed a sigh of relief after confirming that there was no abnormal reaction.
Seeing this, the two sitting people realized the seriousness of the matter and looked much more serious.
After collecting the money, the waiter still had a little contract spirit and explained: "There are a group of monsters in this city. They grow up and cannot see things during the day, but they have a very good hearing. If the noise is too loud, they will attract them!"
"Who are they? Monsters or ghosts? What do they look like?"
The older man frowned and asked again.
"I don't know this little one. I only heard people say that it was a group of monsters, looking like humans, and very fast. Often, you just saw it, and then you die the next moment."
The waiter shook his head and said.
"You can tell them what they look like and how they kill, but you don't know their race."
The young man frowned and easily pinched the waiter's neck with a claw in his right hand, "I think you're making up, be confused!"
"No...no, the little one doesn't dare..."
The waiter's face quickly swelled into pig liver color, his eyes turned pale, and he was almost fainting.
"Oh! You are a trash who is so damn bad, how dare you offend your distinguished guest!"
At this time, a shout rang out from the backyard.
