Just as Zhang Meng was thinking about it, Lin Dagui appeared from the side again and scolded: "The prince has promoted you, but you are still not clean and grateful!"
So Zhao Yanxun glared at him again, telling Lin Dagui to shut up again.
"Your Majesty, I...I...I..."
After all, Zhang Meng is a rough man. After experiencing so many changes in a short period of time, his mind can't turn around at all.
Zhao Yanxun was not in a hurry. This time he came out just to look around. In the past, his subordinates always found survivors. Today, he could save some people himself.
"Go see your mother first!"
Zhang Meng got up from the ground, then stepped aside and said: "Your Majesty, please!"
…………
"My lord, are you really the prince?"
Only Zhang Meng could ask this question. Obviously he still didn't believe it was true, and it also reflected from the side that his brain was really not strong enough.
"Is it possible that it's still a fake? Since it's a fake, why not just pretend to be the emperor?" Zhao Yanxun said with a smile.
Zhang Meng nodded, and that was indeed the truth.
In fact, through the time spent on the road, Zhang Meng had thought a lot about certain issues, and now he had made some decisions in his heart.
"Your Majesty lives in Yuanyang, are there many monsters there?"
"They have all been killed. Soon, I will send people to Hecheng to clean up all the monsters here!"
"Really?" Zhang Meng couldn't believe it, because these words were too fantasy for him.
"Nonsense, have you ever lied to me?" Lin Dagui couldn't help but said.
Seeing that Zhang Meng, a reckless man, could be so valued by Zhao Yanxun, but Zhang Meng didn't know how to praise him, this made Lin Dagui feel extremely unhappy.
At this time, Zhao Yanxun said: "Zhang Meng, you are very capable. Don't you want to join my army and help me to wipe out the monsters and make the world pure?"
Zhang Meng was particularly excited that his abilities were recognized, and it was also recognized by a prince.
"I'm willing, but... I just have to ask my mother!" At this point, Zhang Meng felt a little embarrassed, as it didn't match his rugged appearance.
Zhao Yanxun didn't take it seriously, but said calmly: "I'm sure your father-in-law will not hinder your future!"
Everyone continued on their way, led by Zhang Meng, and headed south along the path.
Zhao Yanxun was not idle either. He asked many questions while on the way, and Zhang Meng answered them honestly.
You may or may not know that where Zhang Meng and his son lived, there were hundreds of survivors, relying on the grain stored in Zhuangzi to survive.
This was the first time that Zhao Yanxun encountered such a large group of Xincun people, which made him go to see the situation first.
Everyone hurried on and walked for more than ten miles before finally appearing outside Yangjiazhuang.
This is an ordinary village with temporary walls built out of wood.
It is indeed stronger than other undefended villages, but the main reason why it can resist zombies is the river surrounding the village.
The river helped them isolate the zombies and made this place a pure land.
"Your Majesty, after crossing the bridge in front, we will reach our village!" Zhang Meng looked excited.
Looking around the village, Zhao Yanxun asked: "Did you harvest the grain outside?"
"We harvested it a few days ago, but in the wheat fields farther away, we can only watch the grain rot in the ground!" Zhang Meng said with regret.
Zhao Yanxun reined in the reins and said in a deep voice: "You go back and see your mother first, and then go and report to Yang Juren, the head of the village, and ask him to come out to see me!"
"As you command!"
Although he did not officially belong to Zhao Yanxun's command, Zhang Meng still behaved very respectfully in front of his savior.
What's more, Zhao Yanxun's force value is extremely high, and suppressing Zhang Meng in the field he is best at is enough to convince him.
Zhang Meng left, and Zhao Yanxun sat on the horse, waiting quietly.
He is a prince, and he is destined to regain this place in the future, so he must let the person in charge of this place come to see him, otherwise he will degrade himself.
In fact, when Zhao Yanxun and his entourage arrived, they had already been noticed by the sentry in Zhuangzi.
So when Zhang Meng came to the gate of Zhuangzi's wall, he opened it without waiting for him to call.
The young men in the village were on sentry duty. When these people saw Zhang Meng, they were like mice seeing a cat.
"Zhang Meng, you went out of the village without permission. The great master already knows about this. He will not let you off lightly!"
Zhang Meng was originally in a good mood, but when he heard this, his expression changed immediately. He opened his eyes angrily and said, "What do you mean by that?"
"He wants to punish me, what does it have to do with you?"
The young men immediately shut up, and after Zhang Meng left, they arranged their arrangements behind the scenes.
"This guy thinks he's in trouble because of his strength. I think he'll have to shed his skin this time even if he doesn't die!"
"Come on, I don't think the eldest master will really do anything to him. After all, this man has extraordinary martial arts skills and we have to rely on him to kill monsters!"
"This guy has been taught a lesson by the elder many times. He insisted on running out today... which made the elder so angry that he threw the quilt. I also think Zhang Meng needs to be punished!"
"Okay, no matter how much we say whether Zhang Meng dies or not, it all depends on the big master. Come and take a look at those people outside!"
Through the gap, everyone saw clearly Zhao Yanxun and his party.
"These people are wearing armor, they seem to be officers and soldiers!"
"Is it true that Hecheng is the only one like this and other places are fine?"
As a result, everyone began to speculate about the outside world again, and the discussion became more heated.
Of course, they sent people to spread the news to the depths of Zhuangzi.
The name of this place is Yangjiazhuang. As the name suggests, there are many people named Yang here.
In the middle of the village, on the flat terrain, there is a mansion with three bays and two bays, which is particularly eye-catching in the village.
The plaque on the front door of the house reads "Yang Mansion". This is the eldest man of Yangjiazhuang and the residence of Yang He, the principal of this place.
Yang He, who is in his thirties, is currently lying on the soft couch in the wing, enjoying his concubine beating his legs.
Yang He himself has an elegant appearance. He passed the provincial examination ten years ago, but failed in the next three examinations.
Although he failed to pass the Jinshi examination, the Yang family prospered after he passed the examination, so that Yang He had not cared about the scientific examination for the past two years.
But he hasn't even enjoyed being at home for two years, but now a zombie crisis has broken out, forcing him to work hard to protect himself and his people.
It was only after harvesting some food these days that Yang He relaxed a little.
"Master, someone from outside reported that Zhang Meng has returned, and there are also a group of strangers outside, who seem to be officers and soldiers from the imperial court!"
Upon hearing the report, Yang He immediately sat up from the couch, with uncontrollable surprise in his eyes.
Yang He frowned and said, "Officers and soldiers? All the people in Hecheng are dead, and the surviving soldiers in the guard station have been taken over by me. How will there be officers and soldiers there?"
