On top of the city wall, the soldiers standing guard were confused when they saw everyone fleeing below.
What the hell is going on? Why are all the good people running away?
After hearing the shouts of the fleeing people, Wang Cheng's expression on the tower was extremely ugly. These people were really stupid.
With such a wide moat, how could those zombies get through? These idiots really have no sense of propriety.
"Sir, look at this..." A guard on the side asked for his opinion.
After thinking for a while, Wang Cheng solemnly said: "Block the city gate and let them all go back and finish their work before returning to the city!"
He, Wang Cheng, was also afraid, but what he was afraid of was not the rioting zombies outside, but the fear that he could not even maintain order.
Opening the city gate required Zhao Yanxun's royal order, and the order also asked Wang Cheng to maintain order.
"As you command!"
Immediately, these hundreds of households went to mobilize manpower, while Wang Cheng's eyes looked into the distance.
He often stays on the city wall, and because he is always observing, he has a certain understanding of the habits of zombies.
The situation at this moment is actually because some living creatures may have come in from the outside world, causing these monsters to move strangely, and then a chain reaction occurred.
This kind of thing happened every now and then. They were worried at first, but when they found that the zombies could never cross the moat, they were not surprised.
They are not surprised, but that does not mean that others are the same.
Including Zhang Zhiqi and Liu Jinghui, they all followed the people and fled toward the city gate in panic. At this moment, they only regretted that their parents had lost two legs.
In fact, I don't blame them for being timid. There was a large-scale commotion of zombies outside, creating a terrifying scene.
Everyone has only one life, no one will not cherish it.
When the crowd rushed to the city gate like bees, they saw that the car door had been closed, and everyone kept beating on the city gate.
"Sir, open the door quickly, open the door quickly..."
"Open the door quickly, those monsters outside are going to rush in!"
Dozens of people soon gathered outside the car door. These people were beating on the city gate and shouting. Zhang Zhiqi and Liu Jinghui were also among the crowd.
Within the city gate, nearly a hundred soldiers have gathered under the leadership of a Baihu, who are enough to deal with the people outside.
On top of the city wall, another member of the household shouted: "Go back to work. If the monsters outside come in, go back!"
"Sir, look...there are so many monsters running around, open the door quickly, we can't work today!"
"Go back, everyone go back!"
Seeing that these people showed no sign of leaving, the hundred households upstairs said to Liu Jinghui and the other two people in the crowd: "Those two officials, please take them back quickly... It's safe outside, and monsters won't come here!"
"With such a big moat in the middle, monsters can't get through at all!"
Hearing the shouting, Zhang Zhiqi felt a little more at ease.
In fact, when you calm down and think about it, there hasn't been a monster outside the city wall for so many days, which means that the monsters really can't rush over.
"Bring these people back quickly. If you can't complete today's mission, you won't even get food!"
But at this moment, the zombies were running around, and some were squeezed and fell into the moat.
Seeing these zombies flapping in the river, everyone was so scared that they desperately wanted to enter the city.
But everyone on the city wall was not surprised by the zombies flapping in the river.
These monsters cannot swim over, and they will all drown within a few minutes of flopping in the water.
Yes, this is also a pattern discovered by the soldiers. These zombies are very afraid of water, so they try to stay away from water on weekdays.
Unless they were squeezed into the water, these zombies would rarely come close to the moat.
Wang Cheng has already reported this situation, and Zhao Yanxun is also aware of it.
But ordinary people knew this, and they kept banging on the door at this moment.
"Open the door, open the door..."
"Open the door... open the door quickly!"
But at this time, crossbow machines had been deployed on the city wall.
Just listen to the hundreds of households on the city wall roaring: "If you dare to destroy the city gate again, you will be shot to death!"
The crossbow machine was a shock, and everyone below became more at ease.
On the day when the monsters broke out, the people below were shot dead when they tried to enter the city. The following people all knew the news.
"Back off!"
Under the scolding from hundreds of households on the city tower, the young men under the city wall had no choice but to retreat.
"Look at the monsters in the river. Are they all drowned?"
Everyone then looked into the river, and sure enough, the monster that was flapping just now had disappeared.
"Go back to work quickly, the monsters can't get through!"
At this moment, the zombies were still "rioting" on a large scale outside, but they did not come towards the city, and everyone felt a little calmer.
Just listen to Zhang Zhiqi say: "Everyone... hurry up and go back to work. After finishing the work, return to the city as soon as possible!"
Go back to the city early, these four words are particularly attractive at this moment.
Under the persuasion of Zhang Zhiqi and Liu Jinghui, everyone returned to their respective construction sites and worked even harder than before.
At this moment, the zombie riot outside is still continuing, causing the frowns on the city walls to furrow.
Over the past month or so, the frequency of zombie riots has increased, and the duration of each riot has also been much longer.
It seems...as the weather gets hotter, these zombies become more restless.
Fortunately, half an hour later, the riot became less violent and finally subsided.
The morning passed quickly, and more than a hundred young men outside were working hard to cut down trees and bamboos two miles outside the city wall.
But just chopping down is not enough. They also have to remove the branches and finally send the trees to the workshop of the Gongzheng Institute.
In Yuanyang City, people with a certain craftsmanship, or people with more skillful hands, have all been incorporated into the work center, and are now working day and night to make various objects.
Although they are very tiring, their treatment is also very high, and they are very popular among the young people in the city.
The ones with the worst treatment are the coolies outside the city, because they can only do coolies.
Watching the young men loading the wood and bamboo into the car, Zhang Zhiqi immediately sent people to deliver them to the city.
The remaining people continued to chop down trees outside the city.
According to their current speed, it will take at least two hours before today's task can be completed.
Let’s talk about the team transporting wood into the city. There are three people in their team, one pulling the cart in front and two pushing the cart behind.
When they arrived at the city gate, Liu Jinghui personally called the door, and the long-closed city gate slowly opened.
"Go back quickly!" Liu Jinghui warned the three people transporting the wood.
When the gate opened, three people pushed the cart into the city gate, including Li Sanqiu.
Pushing the carriage behind him, Li Sanqiu glanced furtively at the soldiers guarding him on the left and right, and then raised his head to look above his head.
At this moment, they were passing through the doorway, and there was darkness above their heads, which gave people a great sense of oppression.
With a "bang" sound, the city gate closed behind him.
While Li Sanqiu was smoking from side to side, he heard someone scolding: "That boy, stop looking around and push the cart away quickly!"
