Chapter 57: Tianjin, Buffet
Famine continued to spread throughout the Jizhou region.
More than half of the state was severely affected, and the starving people fled south like ants.
As the Lord of Jizhou, the Beiling King did not start the disaster relief. Instead, he gathered his troops near the capital. It was unknown what he was planning.
The other provinces didn’t care either. They directly sent troops to seal the borders and prevent the hungry people from entering Jizhou.
Those who trespass will be killed without mercy!
Only a handful of warriors with good strength and luck managed to escape from Jizhou.
Those who were unlucky would be killed on the spot after being caught as a warning to others!
For a time, the Ji Prefecture was covered in corpses and countless vengeful souls.
An indescribable oppressive aura circled and condensed above the Ji Prefecture.
Tianjin was one of the few places in Jizhou that was not affected by the disaster.
Firstly, Tianjin was located at the edge of Jizhou, far from the center.
Secondly, Tianjin was close to the North Sea and had a canal inside. It was prosperous and had sufficient rain.
However, as time passed, Tianjin showed signs of being affected.
Food prices were rising, and a large number of disaster victims were entrenched outside the city. There was a possibility of a civil revolt at any time!
This caused a large number of people in Tianjin to flee. The flow of people on the streets suddenly became sparse, like a ghost city.
Even if the boss didn’t run away, most of them would hide at home and try to reduce their chances of going out.
A demon would appear in troubled times!
There were more and more strange things happening in Tianjin these days.
One of them was known as the Coffin Carrying Man.
It was said that at midnight, there was often a petite figure with an indistinct appearance, carrying a coffin that was much bigger than her, wandering around Jinmen City.
Many people claimed to have seen the Coffin Carrying Man before, but they had disappeared in a flash.
Some people even said that Chief Long, who was known as the number one in Tianjin, was killed by this Coffin Carrying Man!
This was an old watchman who claimed to have seen everything with his own eyes.
According to him, this was what happened.
That night, Chief Long flew out of the city and captured two beautiful ladies from the starving people. He was going to bring them home to train them.
However, just as he reached the door, he was stopped by the Coffin Carrying Man.
Immediately after, a ferocious and terrifying figure flew out of the coffin and killed Chief Long in one move!
He had been scared out of his wits and fled in a panic.
As for Chief Long, he was found dead at his doorstep the next day.
This once strong and mighty man had not only been dismembered, but he had also become a withered corpse!
Such a strange way of dying was indeed very similar to the methods of demons and ghosts.
This caused the surrounding people to panic!
However, most people felt that the witness was exaggerating.
Chief Long was a powerful martial artist at the peak of the Postliminary Realm. He was only a step away from the Innate Realm!
Even if such a powerful martial artist was to face a fiendish demon, he would not be completely helpless. He would at least be able to last two moves, right?
The night watchman must have been scared half to death when he saw the black shadow fly out of the coffin and immediately fled, so he did not see the process of the fight.
However, the watchman insisted that Chief Long was killed in one move and had no way to resist.
When he turned around to escape, he saw that Master Dragon’s head had already been twisted off.
It was as easy as plucking a ripe persimmon from a tree.
” Coffin Carrying Man ” was rumored to have a nose and eyes. It was widely spread.
In a teahouse, a storyteller was talking about this matter.
“Speaking of which, this Coffin Carrying Man is actually a pair of Yin Yang Twins.”
“Yi Yang Tai, brother. He was smart and alert, but he was small and ugly, a dwarf.”
“One Yin fetus, little brother. He was born tall and mighty, but his life was flawed. He could only move for a moment in a day. For the rest of the time, he could only hide in the coffin and drag out his days.”
“Therefore, Yang is used against Yin. The dwarf elder brother carried his younger brother on his back as he walked in the world. Specializing in killing evil people!”
“Chief Long is one of them.”
“He’s done all his evil deeds and has finally been targeted by the Coffin Carrying Man.”
“That night, the moon was dark and the wind was strong. The cold wind was chilling…”
This storyteller made up a bunch of nonsense. It wasn’t good or bad. Anyway, there weren’t many audiences.
In this world, how many people still had the leisure to come and drink tea and listen to books?
There were only a few people below the stage.
To be precise, there were two tables.
A young girl sat at the table.
Not only was she extremely beautiful, but she also had an extraordinary temperament.
At the other table, there were four or five hoodlums in green huddled together, discussing something.
“Have you heard? Official Wang had gathered all the forces to gather at his mansion tonight. I’m afraid this is going to be a major event!”
“That’s right! In this world, to gather so many powerful figures with status, they must be doing something big! It’s a pity that we’re not qualified to get involved!”
“Humph! If I was born ten years earlier, I would definitely be the overlord of Tianjin! No matter how powerful Minister Wang is, he has to invite me three times before I’m willing to go.”
” Get, get, get, get, get, get, get, get, get, get, get, get, get, get, get, get,, get, get, get, get, get Even if I give you thirty years, you’ll still be like this!”
“Hey! You don’t believe me? Let’s spar!”
“If you want to come, then come. I’m not afraid of you!”
As the two hooligans talked, they started to fight.
However, the dead hand still keeps a few points of strength.
The green-skinned hooligans stopped talking, and the young girl left the teahouse silently.
This girl was Liu Leqing.
After leaving the memorial hall that night, she carried the Kui Wood Coffin and walked through the deathly silent land of Jizhou.
Hiding during the day and going out at night, he constantly searched for blood food for Su Mu, all the way to Tianjin.
Jinmen was one of the few places in Jizhou that had not been affected.
Even though many people had escaped, the population density was still much higher than other places.
Here, Su Mu and Liu Leqing hunted down several fairly strong warriors.
Chief Long, who claimed to be the number one in Tianjin, was one of them.
The key to raising a corpse was the word “raise”.
If he wanted zombies to increase their strength, he had to raise more.
Therefore, Su Mu spent most of his time lying in the coffin, absorbing the Yin energy to nourish his corpse energy.
As for Liu Leqing, he carried Su Mu on his back at night to search for blood food, and during the day, he scouted around Jinmen City for information.
She did not come to this teahouse to eat or drink tea, nor to listen to books.
After the stock was finished, Liu Leqing could not find any food on the desolate land.
Under the threat of death, her cultivation speed increased greatly.
Now, Liu Leqing was already half a step away from fasting.
They ate the spiritual energy of heaven and earth and drank the morning dew.
Naturally, he came to this teahouse to gather information.
The information that those green-skinned hooligans had revealed was undoubtedly very useful!
The Minister Wang they were talking about was the most powerful person in Tianjin.
He had a strong family business.
He was nicknamed Wang Bancheng!
Chief Long, who claimed to be the number one in Tianjin, was his subordinate.
He didn’t know what Minister Wang was planning to do. Today, he suddenly invited all the forces of the black and white sects to his residence.
It seemed like there was something shocking to discuss!
Liu Leqing didn’t care what these people were doing.
She only cared about when these people would gather together.
p
After this period of time, Su Mu’s body had already grown some arm-length hair.
This was a sign of advancing to a hairy zombie!
Since Minister Wang was so influential that he could invite powerful people from both the black and the white sects of Tianjin, he would not be able to do so.
Then why didn’t Liu Leqing bring her Brother Mu to a happy buffet?
These people were the most powerful in Jinmen City!
