But what happened after that was beyond everyone's expectation. It didn't develop as they expected. Not only did the wind and sand not disappear, it actually got bigger and bigger.

It used to come once every three months, but now it comes once every month. The king was very worried, but he had no solution at all. After all, this was a natural disaster, not a man-made disaster.

Darkness shrouded the heads of every citizen of Shacheng. More and more people went to pray every day, but it had no effect at all.

Although the sandstorm affects people's lives, they have experienced the sandstorm for more than a year after all. Life has to go on, and people are still the same as before.

Later, something even more terrifying happened. One day a man who went out said that he saw a monster. The monster's body was scorched by fire, its skin was wrinkled, and blood was oozing out.

The man was startled, and his legs were shaking uncontrollably. When his legs went weak, he knelt on the ground.

Among the adults who had been burned recently, he only knew one, and that was the queen.

"Your Majesty, please don't blame me! Every injustice has its own owner, and I'm not the one who killed you. If you want to find it, go find them!"

The man's voice trembled and he kept kowtowing. He begged the monster for mercy one by one.

The sound of crunching footsteps on the yellow sand could be heard in his ears. The monster was getting closer and closer to him, and he was shivering more and more violently.

"Please, Her Majesty the Queen, please don't kill me. I still have a mother who needs to be taken care of. My wife just gave birth and my children are still very young. They all need me." The man was lying on the ground.

His head was buried in the yellow sand.

The monster passed by him, did not stop or hurt him, but just walked further away.

When the footsteps gradually faded away and could no longer be heard, the man finally breathed a sigh of relief. He lay on the ground and his clothes were all wet with sweat.

He got up and stumbled back to the city. The first thing he did was to report to the guards.

"Master Guard! I saw a monster outside the city..." He told the guard everything he saw, but the guard obviously didn't believe it.

"How is that possible? Are you talking nonsense? Do you know that you will be punished for lying to the guards," the guard frowned and spoke seriously.

"I know, how could I lie to you? But you think, the wind and sand still haven't stopped, isn't it because the sin has not been eliminated?" The man looked at the guard seriously.

The guard thought for a moment and was convinced by this reason. He replied: "I will report it to the superior."

He waved his hand and told the man to leave as soon as possible. After the man returned, he told his family and friends about the incident. In an instant, the news spread among all the people in Shacheng.

This incident once again aroused public outrage. Everyone thought they had found the truth, and the monsters outside the city became another outlet for them to vent.

They gave this monster a name, Burning Man. They were unwilling to admit that it was their queen, and they were unwilling to call him a monster.

They believe that people who are burned by fire should be burned by fire throughout life and death, burning every inch of their sins.

The man's friends came to his home to find him and asked him to go outside the city with them. They organized and planned an operation to exterminate the Huashao people again and bring light back to Shacheng.

The sinners did not die, and the sandstorm in the sand city did not stop. Every citizen involved was very angry. They took weapons from their homes and headed out of the city in great numbers.

But the result made them very disappointed. They walked all the way to the oasis, but did not see the figure of the Burning Man. They were afraid of the wind and sand sweeping in, so they did not dare to stay outside the city for too long.

So the people dispersed and searched near the oasis for an hour, but still to no avail, so they returned to the city dejectedly.

The leader comforted them: "It doesn't matter. The desert is so big. There is only one Burning Man. If you can't find it once, we can go there again. One day, we will catch the Burning Man and apologize to the gods again."

this night,

All the people in Shacheng went to sleep with anger.

The next day, they set out again, but still to no avail.

In this way, they went there for five consecutive days. Not to mention burning people, there was not a single human figure in the entire desert.

One surge of energy will make you weak, and the next three will be exhausted.

Some people already wanted to give up. At this moment, the king came forward and called all the people to the square.

"My people, I just learned the news that the sinful people have not disappeared and are still destroying Shacheng. I can't bear this result!"

"Three days later, I will lead the guards outside the city to exterminate the sinners and give you a day of peace in Shacheng. You can also go there together at that time. Let us protect our Shacheng together!"

The people were cheering, and they felt confident and courageous again.

The third day came soon, and the king led hundreds of guards and the people who participated in the operation to the outside of the city.

Perhaps it was because God knew that they would go to eliminate the Burning Man today, so their trip went very smoothly. After leaving the city, they only walked for about a quarter of an hour when they saw a figure in the distance.

The man who saw the burning man before was so frightened that he stopped and shouted: "That's the man!"

"How can you lose your composure in front of the king?" The captain of the guard stood up and scolded him.

"Your Majesty, I'm just too excited." The man suddenly knelt on the ground and apologized to the king.

The king waved his hand and didn't care much. He turned back and said to everyone: "Everyone, get ready, we will go and catch him right away!"

After they came in, the burning man turned his back to them. Looking at his back, he really looked like the dead queen.

The king pointed his finger at the burning people and cursed loudly: "You sinner! Why don't you die! Your sins have not been burned away! We have not been forgiven by the gods. The sand in the sand city will not stop, and it will only kill more people!"

"Today, we will arrest you again. You will use your life to pay for the sins you owe. You will be burned by fire in all your life and after your death!"

The people were also very angry. They shouted at the burning man, one after another, louder and louder.

As soon as the king waved, the guards behind him all went up and surrounded the Burning Man. With the guards taking the initiative, the people also started to take action.

They stood next to the guards and surrounded the Burning Man in the middle. There was only one Burning Man, but there were hundreds of them, and they all looked at the Burning Man in the middle with eager eyes.

"Go to hell!"

"Go to hell!"

Everyone was shouting, but the burning man just stood quietly. The king waved again, and the guards took long swords and slashed at the burning man.

Unexpectedly, the burning man started to speak in a gibbering voice. No one could understand what he was saying, but they did not stop.

One stone stirred up thousands of waves, and the act of burning people received many responses. Sounds began to come from all directions, and the sound was so loud that it even suppressed the shouts of the people.

Everyone was stunned. They turned their heads nervously, and happened to see burning people starting to appear densely around them.

Everyone was shocked and started to retreat slowly.

Seeing this scene, the king's pupils shrank, but he could not retreat. He shouted: "All the sinners have appeared! Just kill them all! Shacheng will be able to regain its light!"

"Guards! Citizens! The future of Sand City is in your hands. Pick up the weapons in your hands and march towards these sinful people!"

The king's order could not be disobeyed, and the guards began to attack.

They rushed forward with long swords, and the sharp swords struck the wrinkled skin of Burning Man, but it failed to hurt them at all. Instead, because they were close, Burning Man stretched out his sharp claws and slashed hard.

Blood immediately appeared on the guards' bodies, and they screamed, scaring the people to retreat.

Burning people not only sharpens their claws,

They bared their teeth, revealing the shining fangs inside. He pulled a guard from the side and bit the guard's neck fiercely. Blood spurted out and spread all over the floor.

He ate up the guard right in front of everyone. This scene frightened everyone.

Everyone began to retreat and run, and the thick crowd was like black clouds, heading towards the sand city.

No one dared to look back. They only saw the sand city and their feet were running hard. They could hear the fate of their slower running companions behind them.

The piercing screams kept ringing out, and the sounds of gnawing, swallowing, and tearing were endless, and each one of them made the hearts of those who heard it beat wildly.

The king was also among the fleeing crowd, and the guards surrounded him to protect his safety.

Everyone's faces were full of desire for life, and sweat was dripping down, blurring their vision. But they couldn't care less at this time, and no one dared to run to the last one.

Their enemies are not only Burning Man, but also their companions. As long as they run faster than their companions, they have more chance of survival.

The king stumbled into the city gate. The first thing he did after entering was to order the guards guarding the city to close the city gate, and then he climbed onto the city wall.

All the people behind him were blocked outside the city wall. They knocked frantically on the city gate, but received no response.

"Open the door! Open the door quickly! You guards, open the door quickly!"

"Your Majesty the King, please open the door quickly! I don't want to die yet."

"There are monsters and burning people behind. They are coming soon. Let us in quickly!"

The knocking on the door kept ringing, and the king on the city wall just looked at it all indifferently. He was thankful that he came back safely.

More and more people arrived. They really had no choice but to force their way through. Everyone rushed towards the city wall, and the wooden planks blocking the city gate behind them could no longer hold up.

"Go and block the city gate! They cannot be let in. The Burning Man is behind them. They were forced to sacrifice, but they protected the remaining people in the city." The king ordered again.

The guards went to block the city gate, which was only separated by a gate. On the left side of the gate were the people of Shacheng, and on the right side of the gate were the guards of Shacheng. One on the left and one on the right.

Not long after, the Huoshuo people arrived. When they saw the group of people left at the city gate, they were like wolves seeing sheep. Their eyes lit up, and they used their hands and feet to jump towards them. New

They gnawed at the people, leaving bits of flesh and bones on the ground, and the smell of blood filled the entire sand city.

The king turned away and did not look again.

After an unknown amount of time, the screams stopped, and all the burning people wandering outside left. Only the remains of corpses were left at the city gate, and all the people left outside the city were dead.

For everything that has happened recently, the king needs to give an explanation to the people and guards in the city.

The king told the people who didn't know the truth that the sinful person, that is, the queen, was still evil, and he came back with some burning people to hurt them and Shacheng.

For the comfort of the people, he told them not to go out for the time being and to stay at home. He would continue to send guards out to eliminate the remaining Burning People.

At the same time, he continued to send people to heighten and strengthen the city wall to withstand more frequent sandstorms.

The people had no other choice. They did whatever the king ordered.

They spent a period of time peacefully like this, but one problem was still unresolved. They were about to run out of food, and their food source was in the oasis outside the city.
