Chapter 135 Refugees make trouble
"So you just massacred that Onomura?" Wang Sheng suddenly asked.
"Slaughter the village?" Gong Sugu looked at Wang Sheng in shock, "What are you talking about? How could we do such a cruel thing."
"But last night we saw the village burning..." Qu Tian said weakly.
His reputation in the high-level circles of Chu State is extremely bad, so now he has no status.
"That's what you're talking about." Gongsugu explained, "After we drove those wild villagers to Qisiyi to find a place to resettle them, of course we should burn those extremely flammable villages. It would be too dangerous to keep them.
It’s easy to make a copycat for bandits.”
"I'm sorry." Wang Sheng apologized to Gongsugu and then said nothing.
Really honest...
"Have you ever encountered zombies on the road before?" Ouyang gestured and made a face, "The kind that look very scary, can eat human flesh, and can't be killed by ordinary means."
"Uh..." Gongsugu was stunned for a moment, then nodded and said, "Is it a living corpse? I've encountered it before, but isn't it possible to kill it by beheading it?"
Xiong Zhong and Ouyang looked at each other, and Ouyang winked, meaning, "It would be more appropriate for you to say the next words."
Xiong Zhong nodded and began to organize his words.
"What's wrong? Is there something wrong?" Gongsugu asked.
"What we encountered may not be the same kind of zombies..." Xiong Zhong said. Because of Ouyang's influence, he also began to call these monsters zombies.
"Of course, on the first and second nights, what we encountered was actually the same...the type that could be solved by beheading. But starting from the third night, these zombies no longer have such obvious weaknesses and can be killed directly.
Lowering the head cannot kill them directly, their bodies will continue to move, and only by burning them with fire can they be completely eliminated."
Gong Sugu showed a somewhat solemn expression and asked: "Young master, you mean that these living corpses... have become stronger?"
"That's right." Xiong Zhong nodded, "And last night, that is, the seventh and eighth nights, the group of zombies we encountered would grow very scary growth even after their arms were cut off.
Human tentacles are just like the octopuses I saw on the beach before. They are very tough and difficult to cut off with ordinary swords."
"..." Gongsugu said nothing, his eyes kept swaying from side to side, and he seemed to be thinking about how much impact this news would have on future events.
No one spoke to disturb him, and they were all thinking about their own things.
After a long time, Gongsugu raised his head and said: "I understand, I will tell the teacher about this. In addition... Young Master, although it is inappropriate to say this, but... you have also found other things that can kill these monsters."
Is there any way?"
Xiong Zhong looked at Ouyang, and then said: "Mr. Ouyang said that you can also use salt. Using salt can make these zombies more sluggish and eventually die of dehydration."
"It's actually salt?!" Gongsugu said with a look of sudden realization, "Indeed, salt is very likely to become an effective means of restraint. Fruits and vegetables cannot grow in saline-alkali soil, and leeches and leeches will also die because of salt. Salt
It really makes sense to restrain many creatures."
Gongshu Gu looked at Ouyang, then saluted solemnly and said, "Thank you, Mr. Ouyang! This is a way to save the world, thank you very much."
"Well……
You're welcome." Ouyang looked a little embarrassed and said with a slight hesitation, "Actually, a lot of salt is used...it may take a long time to prepare."
"It's a good thing if there is an effective way." Gongshu Gu nodded.
Seeing that the other party was so excited, Ouyang didn't want to interrupt his fantasy. After experiencing several actual battles, they would understand that kerosene was more effective.
…………………………
"Sorry, you can't come over!" A deep voice attracted everyone's attention.
"People are dying! What can you do? Get out of the way and let us eat something!" a slightly tired but hoarse voice shouted.
"This is our food. There is no reason to rob other people's food!" The rich voice continued to persuade, but the voice seemed to be a little angry.
"What's yours is ours, if we see it, it's ours. You aristocrats who look so polite, don't stop us! Otherwise, we'll make you look good!"
Wang Sheng asked: "Do you want to help those disciples who are public losers?"
"It's not necessary. The disciples of Gongshujia are not weak in ability. Even the regular army does not have as strong combat effectiveness as them. They should be able to handle it." Xiong Zhong said.
But as soon as he finished speaking, he heard the sound of the conflict expanding, and the sound of swords banging.
"excuse me!"
"Asshole, how dare you hurt me?! Folks, rob these turtles! These guys have food!"
After saying that, the commotion became even bigger, and it seemed from the commotion that the public losers could no longer defend themselves.
"Let's go and have a look. It's too noisy and makes people angry." Ouyang got up from the ground and said.
"Mr. Ouyang? Well, that's fine, let's go take a look together." Xiong Zhong nodded and called Gongsun Chao, who had already begun to snore.
When Ouyang came to the place where the dispute broke out, he saw about twenty slightly arrogant young people who had been knocked down by the sons of the public loser. Their hands were tied with ropes and they fell to the ground with rags stuffed in their mouths. They shouted "
"Woo" sound.
"What's happening here?"
Xiong Zhong and others, who had originally planned to support, were confused. They thought that the public losers were about to be unable to withstand the attack, but who knew that the first to be unable to withstand the attack were these young people who planned to grab food.
And the tying ropes are too neat, aren't they? It's already tied up?
"Master." Gongsugu came up and asked, "Do you want to ask them what's going on?"
"What do teachers usually do?" Xiong Zhong did not make a decision, but asked about the habits of public transportation classes.
"Teachers generally act in accordance with the aristocratic laws of Chu State." Gongsugu explained.
"What is the law of the nobility of Chu State?" Wang Sheng asked, looking at the only nobleman present who looked easy to bully.
"The nobles of Chu state govern the laws of the fiefdoms." Qu Tian explained to Wang Sheng, "The nobles are bound by the law in the fiefdoms. They cannot act arbitrarily or kill people at will. If the people under their rule commit crimes, the nobles can
Convict the people according to the laws of the aristocracy."
"But... if we follow the laws of the nobility, it would be too cruel, right?" Gongsun Chao said at this time.
Gong Sugu nodded and acknowledged Gong Sun Chao's words: "Yes, that's why I asked you if you want to interrogate them."
"Cruel, how cruel?" Wang Sheng was a little curious.
"Anyone who intends to rob the nobles and refuses to listen to repeated advice will be punished by having his hands cut off." Xiong Zhong said expressionlessly, "In serious cases, the left palm and left foot will be chopped off in half.
!”
"What?! Broken Palm?" Wang Sheng was stunned for a moment. He was about to say something more, but was held down by Ouyang.
"Don't say anything yet. Go to the back. I'm here." Ouyang said to Wang Sheng.
When Wang Sheng was aggrieved just now, the eyes of the young men lying on the ground had been looking at Wang Sheng. If he continued to stay here, it would very likely affect Xiong Zhong's judgment.
"Yes, I understand." Wang Sheng nodded and left here.
He knew that Ouyang's aristocratic status was actually nonsense. He was almost the same as himself. He was essentially a commoner, so as long as Ouyang stayed here, he didn't have to worry about the aristocrats doing anything particularly outrageous to these young people.
And compared with his own soft-spoken words, Ouyang's words still carry a lot of weight.
"Let go of the evil leader." When Xiong Zhong saw that Wang Sheng was gone, he opened his mouth and said to Gong Sugu, "I will briefly interrogate you."
"Yes!" Gong Sugu said to a disciple, and the disciple took out the rag from a young man's mouth.
As a result, as soon as the young man could speak, he shouted loudly: "This sir! It's unfair! Sir! I..."
"Stop his mouth and punish him by cutting off his hands." Xiong Zhong ignored the young man and said coldly.
The disciple of Gongshujia stuffed the rag back, held down the young man's body, and cut off half of his hand, leaving only his thumb and index finger.
Immediately, the donated blood flowed all over the floor, and the young man let out a hoarse "wuwu" sound, as if he was screaming.
"You have all seen that I don't have much time, and you are a group of guilty people. For the next thing, you can tell me whatever I ask, and you are not allowed to say any more nonsense."
Xiong Zhong's tone was cold, as if he was a lord giving an order.
Xiong Zhong glanced around, casually nodded to a young man and said, "It's him."
A Gongshu disciple removed the rag from his air, and this time he didn't say any more nonsense.
"Let me ask you an answer." Xiong Zhong said, "Where are you from and why are you here?"
"We are the Chu people of Huoqiuyi. Huoqiuyi was attacked by a group of undead monsters that eat human flesh and drink human blood. They came from the south, and all the villagers turned into monsters after being injured. In desperation, we only
I was able to walk all the way north. After escaping for several days and nights, I encountered many villages that were attacked along the way. I found some food and barely made a living."
"Nomura was attacked? What attacked him?" Xiong Zhong continued to ask.
"It should be those monsters..." The young man's voice was trembling, "We saw several wild villages where there were no living people, there was blood everywhere, and the food was not taken away. Although it was not much, it was enough for us to eat.
.”
"When did you arrive in these villages?" Ouyang suddenly asked.
"..." The young man did not answer, but took a cautious look at Xiong Zhong.
Without Xiong Zhong's order, he did not dare to talk nonsense, nor did he dare to answer other people's questions at will, for fear of being punished by having his hands cut off.
