"What's the matter?" Liu Weian noticed something unusual about Sun Lingzhi.
"It's nothing, maybe I'm suspicious." Sun Lingzhi sniffed lightly, with a puzzled expression, and finally shook her head.
"What is it?" Liu Wei'an originally planned to continue listening to the Grand Duke's speech, but when he turned his head, a strange feeling flashed across him, and he asked an extra question.
"I smell sandalwood." Sun Lingzhi said.
"What's so strange about the smell of sandalwood?" Zhu Tanzhi interjected.
"This is not an indoor room." Immortal Cat's words shocked everyone. If it is indoors, the air is not circulated, and the smell can linger for a long time. Here, hundreds of thousands of evolutionaries are crowded together, and the smell of blood, rancidity, and sweat are mixed. In this case, you can still smell sandalwood, which is definitely a problem.
"Why can't I smell it?" Yan Shisan asked, and the others also shook their heads.
"It's also possible that I smelled it wrong. The smell is very weak and disappears in a flash. I can't be sure." Sun Lingzhi explained. Liu Wei'an didn't speak, closed his eyes, felt carefully, opened his eyes after a long time, and looked at Li Huishui.
"I can smell it, it's very faint." Li Huoshui just happened to look over.
"Is there something wrong?" Liu Weian asked Sun Lingzhi, she is very sensitive to medicinal materials, if she hadn't found a problem, she would not have reacted like this.
"I can't tell. This sandalwood is very precious, but it seems that there are other things added. I haven't seen it before. It gives me the feeling...not very good." Sun Lingzhi whispered, his face full of hesitation.
"Hmm." Liu Weian winked at everyone, telling everyone to be careful.
"...Since ancient times, the Chinese nation has fought against people and heaven, strived for self-improvement, never feared, never failed, what is it based on?" The Grand Duke raised his fist and spat out two words heavily: "Unity!"
"As long as the inside doesn't cross, there is no power that can defeat us, and the zombies are the same!" The Grand Duke's voice became severe, "Last night, the zombies attacked the city, and I happened to be attacked by someone. I was unconscious. When I woke up in the morning, I found Yingzhou More than half of the casualties in the city, everyone is fighting on their own, my heart bleeds, why did the quality of unity left by my parents disappear in you? You ask yourself, if you are united, will you be defeated by zombies one by one? Will the casualties be like this? "
"The zombies are too powerful, we are no match." Someone couldn't help crying. This person's team encountered a golden zombie, and there were hundreds of people, only a few escaped. That kind of strength is unrivaled by humans.
"Zombies are very powerful? May I ask you whether aliens are strong?" The Grand Duke stared at the person who spoke, his voice raised a bit, "You are all evolutionaries, and your physique and abilities have greatly increased compared to the previous ones. Here There should be old people over 100 years old, tell me, are the aliens or zombies stronger in the past?"
"Zombies are not as good as aliens!" Several old men with white beards and hair uttered, emotionally.
"Do you still remember how much we paid for killing an alien?" the Grand Duke asked again, his voice cold.
"Remember, why don't you remember? I will never forget it in my life. To kill an alien requires the lives of at least 1,000 soldiers. When encountering powerful monsters, it takes even more than 3,000 people. In order to deal with the Lord-level There are only a few aliens in the 50,000 people left. I survived that battle, and this is the proof." An old man with a sick face suddenly tore off his clothes, revealing a scratch on his chest, only a distance away from his heart. cm distance.
creepy catch
The scar bleeds, and a hundred years have passed, and it has not healed yet.
"The power of aliens is different from the power known to human beings. The body injured by aliens will never heal. Ordinary soldiers can't bear that kind of pain. They will die early. You are very strong!" It was difficult for the general to salute because of his armor, but he still saluted the old man.
"What's the point of this injury? There are many people who were more seriously injured than me." The old man suddenly stood up straight, exuding awe-inspiring fighting spirit, which made people dare not look directly at him.
"If the strength of the fighters was 1, your strength would be at least 10 or even 20. If the strength of the aliens was 1000, the strength of the zombies would only be 800 at most. You didn't lose to the zombies, but to a monster. A strong heart!" the Grand Duke said slowly.
Hundreds of thousands of people were silent at the scene, and many showed shameful expressions, not daring to look at the Grand Duke.
"It's useless to pursue the past. The government of Yingzhou City is also responsible. It didn't take the lead and let the citizens die. In its position, it is a crime to seek a job. However, someone's corpse is a crime. Today I As the Duke of the Han Dynasty, remove the post of Mayor of Yingzhou City, and temporarily take over from my Duke's Mansion, and wait until the disaster of zombies is over, and then choose a capable person to take office." The Grand Duke's words are very natural, and everyone has no objection .
The grand duke originally had this right, and it was written in the royal decree. In an emergency, the grand duke has the right to dismiss the governor. A small mayor has no room to resist.
"I found it! Someone is indeed lighting incense, and there are not only one place, but six places. I stole one." The pangolin's voice came from the ground, and at the same time, a half-burned incense stick out.
"The main ingredient of sandalwood is to soothe the nerves, and it also has a psychedelic effect. In addition, there is a smell that I can't distinguish. I can't say whether it is harmful to people." Sun Lingzhi said after careful identification.
Liu Wei'an didn't speak, and stared at the Grand Duke. At this moment, the Grand Duke's intention was already obvious, that is to recruit the troops present, to reproduce the glory of the Great General, wipe out the zombies, and restore the Qingming of the Han Dynasty. At the same time, he promised that once the zombies were wiped out, he would immediately give up his rights, ignore world affairs, and become his grand duke again.
No one doubted his words, otherwise he would not have been silent in Yingzhou for decades. Everyone believed that he was an old man who did not love power.
In addition to the children of the major families who came from all over the country who were still hesitating, the local tycoons and groups in Yingzhou expressed their opinions one after another, and some of them had already started to cheer.
"Let's go!" Liu Weian made a decisive decision. At the moment, everyone is still in chaos, the team is uneven, and the movement of personnel is normal. Liu Wei'an's timing was perfect. As soon as they left, the gate was taken over by soldiers, who were allowed to enter but not allowed to exit.
"It's a good thing we're going fast!"
On a building about three kilometers away from the Duke's Mansion, Immortal Cat watched hundreds of thousands of evolutionaries being organized into an army one by one. The chaotic scene suddenly became orderly, and his heart was cold.
The grand duke's prestige is too high. If you say a word, there will be a gathering of followers, and no one will resist. He was sure that families like the Wu family, the Lai family, and the Zhang family would definitely not want to be taken over, but because they didn't have time to leave, they could only accept it passively and dared not resist. If you resist, you will immediately be overwhelmed by hundreds of thousands of evolutionaries on the scene.
The Grand Duke didn't need to use any intrigue at all, all his orders were taken for granted.
However, not all big forces are unwilling to be accepted, so
Mr. Hu is very happy to work under the Duke. The Grand General came from the Duke's Mansion, and the Grand Duke attached great importance to Young Master Linghu. Directly ordered him to be the head of the Second Army.
The Grand Duke divided hundreds of thousands of people into 10 legions, which was based on the establishment of the Han Dynasty, to show that he had no two hearts. He is the commander of the first army, and the commander of the third army is the general behind him. Young Master Linghu is qualified to be the commander of the second army, which shows how much the Grand Duke values him.
I don't know if it was a coincidence or some reason, when the Grand Duke was reorganizing the army, the zombies cooperated and did not attack, but waited until the Grand Duke finished organizing the army, and then the disappeared zombies emerged. Just like when it disappeared, it appeared very suddenly, as if all of a sudden, the street was filled with zombies, densely packed.
This ability to appear and disappear is not inferior to pangolins.
"I see, this is the immortal wood." Sun Lingzhi, who was studying sandalwood in the room, shouted, and everyone returned to the room.
"Immortal wood is extremely rare, and there are not many trees in ancient times. The fragrance dissolves in blood, which can stimulate people's potential, increase the probability of evolution, and even have a high probability of a second evolution." Sun Lingzhi said to the crowd.
"So, didn't we blame the Grand Duke by mistake?" Yan Shisan half-jokingly said, everyone knew that Sun Lingzhi had something to say behind it.
"It's so rare, if I had known I would have brought back the other ones." The pangolin felt a little regretful.
"Sandalwood made of immortal wood was only eligible to be used by emperors in ancient times. It was not until something happened that immortal wood was expelled from the palace." Sun Lingzhi continued.
"What is it?" Elephant couldn't help asking, he liked listening to stories very much.
"If the fairy wood is mixed with the fragrance of the lover's tears, it will produce a highly poisonous substance. This kind will not kill people, but it will make people violent, lose themselves, and only know how to attack. If you add the Red Dust Tribulation, you will become the famous Three Corpse Gods .” When Sun Lingzhi said about the Three Corpse Gods, she had a strange expression on her face.
Everyone was shaken, with ugly expressions. The Three Corpse Gods are not famous, but notorious. This is a terrible drug to control people's hearts. It is a hundred times more powerful than hypnotism.
"Isn't the main medicine of the Three Corpse Gods Zihe Che?" Yang Yu'er asked.
"This is the top three corpse gods. I use the Zihe cart because I can't find the immortal wood. After all, the immortal wood is too rare." Sun Lingzhi said.
"So, the Grand Duke wants to control these people?" Zhu Tanzhi was a little scared, but fortunately he ran fast, he didn't want to become a walking dead.
"With the Grand Duke's prestige, there is no need to do this. Maybe he just borrowed the immortal wood to help everyone." Sun Lingzhi said. But no one agrees with these words, the world of adults is very complicated.
Moreover, if it is really kind, the Grand Duke doesn't need to be sneaky.
"Too bad, we also smelled the fragrance!" Huang Yueyue suddenly remembered something, and her face changed drastically. But I found that everyone didn't care, and some were confused.
"This is a elixir made from the juice of Xingxiu vine. After taking it, the immortal wood will only be beneficial to people and will not be affected by the lover's tears and the world of mortals." Sun Lingzhi smiled and took out the medicine. A bottle of elixir.
Although the Grand Duke has a high status, playing poison in front of her is somewhat beyond his control.
"That's good!" Huang Yueyue patted her chest.
"It's fighting!" the third baby in the early days who was staring outside shouted, and everyone went out to watch the fun together.
