Chu Yunsheng then asked some more questions, but the big boy's status in the Night Legion was too low, so he didn't know too much. Most of them were confused, and he couldn't get an answer for a while.
Finally, when the Indian troops began to set off one after another, the big boy hesitated a little and said carefully, "there is one thing, if I tell you, can you give me some food?"
The big boy was under tremendous psychological pressure. After being interrogated for so long, he peed his pants and fainted. Chu Yunsheng didn't want him to get nothing, so he nodded and agreed, "although I don't have much food on me now, Amir should be able to squeeze out some for you. Just take it as coming from me, Mr. Amir, is that okay?"
When he said this, he tacitly agreed to Amir's previous proposal to rely on him. It was not too much to ask for some food. It was far less than the Indian mayor's expectation. Amir quickly nodded and said, "No problem! Lakuma, hurry up and tell this gentleman everything you know, I will prepare food for you. "
The big boy called Lakuma showed an uneasy look in his eyes, and then he said, "when I was in the Night Cavalry Legion, I heard a terrible news circulating among the lower ranks. Some people said that the real immortal king was murdered, and the current royal flag is fake. Someone in the upper ranks is plotting to force the emperor to abdicate, so it is taboo for people to mention it. But some people also said that someone in the legion is plotting to seize the undead king's royal flag, so they deliberately made up the rumor. Some people died some time ago because of this. Now everyone is secretly saying that the Night Cavalry Legion seems to be strong, but in fact, civil strife will soon break out. At that time, no one knows what will happen. Because I was afraid, I used the excuse that I was too weak and could only do some logistics work, so I took the opportunity to run back while transporting food. "
After listening to this, Chu Yunsheng frowned slightly. He was silent for a moment and didn't speak.
It seemed that there was indeed a problem with the Blood Cavalry. The appearance of Deere might not be as simple as he thought. The conflict between vampires and vampires seemed to be a little out of control after he left.
Could it be that Ashe was discovered pretending to be him? Or did Buterne want to seize power? It seemed that he had already given her a lot of authority, so there was no need for her to take anything else, right?
From what Lakuma said, it was difficult for Chu Yunsheng to judge whether Ashe had a problem or Buterne had a problem. The reason why Deere was summoned by Ashe may be to fight against Buterne and balance the power conflict, or it may be that she was trying to consolidate her position within the vampires.
No matter how faint Chu Yunsheng's memory of Deere was, in the circle of vampires such as Ashe and Buterne, he might still be an important figure. Maybe, like those old vampires who were in power, he was not in Chu Yunsheng's sight, but he was famous in the circle of vampires at the bottom level, and he had a strong appeal at the bottom level.
From the beginning, Chu Yunsheng actually drifted away from the system of the entire vampire race, and he had always been regarded as a superior existence. Except for the seventeen blood riders that he personally led, even the most noble vampires could not enter his sight. The entire vampire race was divided into two power centers because of his appearance. The traditional power holders were excluded and separated. Ashe, Buterne, and others, who had very little seniority, were suddenly promoted to the top of the power that had direct contact with the undead king by Chu Yunsheng. They could pass the "imperial edict" on behalf of the undead king.
This kind of power structure was actually extremely dangerous, especially when he had left the headquarters of vampires. The many contradictions left by power and history would inevitably intensify the conflict between the old and new power centers.
If it were Ding Yan, or even Cao Zhengyi, Xiao Chuan, and others, they would not do this. The steady struggle for power was a long-term process of constant compromise with the old forces and contradictions, and then gradually eliminating them. But Chu Yunsheng, who relied on his own preferences to destroy the original power system at the beginning and establish a new order, would inevitably give rise to many complex conflicts and contradictions at the bottom of the power structure. If he was there, it would be fine. But once he left, the contradictions would naturally erupt, and the new order might collapse at any time.
These problems were already very clear to Chu Yunsheng when he left the earth to make the decision. After all, he had also experienced many ups and downs, so it was impossible for him not to know. But he was not Ding Yan, Cao Zhengyi, Xiao Chuan, and others. He did not rely on vampires to survive, and he did not have time to deal with the complicated internal problems of a race that had lasted for thousands of years. Moreover, he was not a real vampire, so he knew very little about their culture and internal traditions. With his ability in this aspect, if he interfered too much, things might become more complicated, and he might not be able to get the desired result. It might even be the opposite of what he wanted. It was better to let them solve their own problems internally. After the contradictions of all parties were decided and the new real balanced system was re-established, he would directly deal with the few leaders, which would save a lot of trouble in the middle.
In the beginning, he wanted to help Buterne by eliminating some of the old vampires to give her more advantages, but she refused. Chu Yunsheng's starting point at that time was to test her, and he also wanted to see how capable Buterne was. In the future, it would not be him who would truly control the entire Blood Cavalry Legion, it would still fall on their heads. His own priority was to reach the cardinal level as soon as possible, which was the key to determining the future!
It was just that he didn't expect that the shadow man was still alive, and he made so many troubles that he still couldn't find the vampires according to the original plan.
So he couldn't tell whether the current internal situation of the vampires was Ashe's problem or Buterne's problem. After so many years of experience, Chu Yunsheng would not easily make a conclusion based on speculation. Even if the "facts" he saw were not necessarily the real "facts", the external behavior might be very different from the truth. He had suffered a lot from this. He even killed a kind-hearted little girl outside Panyang Lake that he regretted killing so far.
It was useless to say anything now. Everything would be clear when they met. It was just that no matter whose problem it was, it seemed that they were seeking death!
As the Indians migrated to the south, Chu Yunsheng followed them and calmly waited for the arrival of the Blood Cavalry Legion. After walking for about a day and a night, they found a small stream. Just when the large army had just set up camp and rested, they heard the Indian soldiers who were exploring the way ahead send out a dazzling signal flare.
In the night, the two bright signal flare were very dazzling. Everyone's eyes moved slowly along with the rising flash, and when they landed again, it was chaos.
One signal flare was dangerous, two signals meant that the sand cricket had appeared, and three signals hadn't appeared yet.
Although they didn't know how the sand cricket group got to the front, it was not the time to find the reason. For the Indians, escaping was the most important thing.
Under the "decisive" command of the mayor and others, tens of thousands of Indians immediately packed up their belongings and hurriedly retreated to the rear. Although they knew that it was impossible to run faster than the sand cricket group, no one had the rationality to face the reality. They still instinctively thought that they might be able to escape if they ran back.
At that time, when thousands of people faced Chu Yunsheng, who was like the God of Slaughter, the courage that burst out of them collectively to fight against the common enemy disappeared at this moment. They became a panicked "flock of sheep", which made Chu Yunsheng almost have an illusion. Were they the same group of people!?
Or was it that they were not as lethal as the sand cricket? Or did they once believe that they were more reasonable than the sand cricket?
No matter what kind of mentality they had, in short, no one tried to turn around and fight against the cruel and unreasonable sand cricket group to open a bloody path to the China camp. Like a flock of sheep that had encountered a lion, they had no courage at all. They only thought about how to run away as soon as possible. To be precise, how to run faster than others.
But since they wanted to escape, it was not necessarily impossible. The sand cricket's eyesight was poor, but its hearing was developed. As long as it didn't make too much noise, it was not impossible for it to run away, and it could even stay where it was. However, the reaction of tens of thousands of people was completely the opposite.
Last night, Chu Yunsheng told some of the habits of the sand cricket to Amir, but it didn't work. Tens of thousands of people who had never experienced life and death at all wanted to stay quiet. It was as difficult as the floating clouds in the sky to stay still.
If they were insects, even if there were millions of them, Chu Yunsheng could still imagine that under Dark's gaze, the swarm of insects would instantly become silent. Even if they stood still and died, they would not move at all.
The human team let out a loud noise. Only after less than ten minutes, the soldiers, who had become the vanguard, once again sent out two signal flares into the air. This time, it was accompanied by a horrifying scream. Obviously, they had encountered the sand cricket group at a close distance.
When the signal flares were sent out last time, it was very likely that the sand crickets hadn't discovered human beings yet, so they didn't even hear the gunshots. Maybe those sand crickets were just passing by. But once tens of thousands of people ran away, how could the sand crickets not notice them?
Sand crickets' eyesight was poor, but it didn't mean that their ability to transmit information was poor. From Chu Yunsheng's experience of fighting them, he knew that ten minutes was enough for them to transmit the information from the front to the rear, and they could even surround them instinctively.
Amir's family, who had been following Chu Yunsheng, all had a pale face at this moment. Needless to say, they knew that the sand crickets must be too close to them, so the soldiers who sent out the alarm didn't have time to escape!
He looked at Chu Yunsheng with a pleading look. Just ten minutes ago, Chu Yunsheng told him that the best way was to tell everyone not to move and just sit where they were. Perhaps most people could still escape, but tens of thousands of people, who were like frightened birds, could only escape in groups. Because they were scared, they just wanted to escape, but there was no way for them to "risk their lives" and stay where they were.
In the end, even if they wanted to escape, it would actually be suicide, suicide!
There were sand crickets on both the front and the back, and on the left, there was a small cliff that was impassable. Although it was not high, except for Chu Yunsheng, other ordinary people couldn't climb it. They could only turn right together. There was a small stream there, and after crossing the stream, they could enter a denser and lush jungle. Although there might be danger in there, they could only drink poison to quench their thirst.
The only way to describe the chaotic crowd was to not choose a path in a panic.
In the jungle at night, the number of sand crickets could not be seen clearly. If there were tens of thousands of sand crickets passing by, Chu Yunsheng alone would not be able to save them. Perhaps by the time he finished killing the sand crickets, or by opening a bloody path, the people behind him would probably have already died.
Tens of thousands of people who were attacked from both the front and the back, at this moment, many people had already begun to regret confronting Chu Yunsheng ten days ago. If they couldn't escape earlier, perhaps they would be in the camp of China people like other smart people who left early, and would not fall into such a desperate situation!
But after all, there was no medicine for regret in this world. Most people had to take one step at a time. Now that they had fallen into such a situation, they could only bite the bullet and step on the stream to cross the river.
Chu Yunsheng was also in the group, but he did not plan to cross the river. Instead, he stopped and sat down, holding the iron rod in front of him, quietly looking at the dense jungle ahead.
Amir, with his only son and daughter, who were killed by Chu Yunsheng, had been following the "murderer" Chu Yunsheng. Seeing Chu Yunsheng suddenly stopped, he hurriedly pulled his wife, who was blankly following the crowd to cross the stream. His chest was heaving up and down because of panic.
Although he and Chu Yunsheng had a grudge against each other because Chu Yunsheng killed his son and destroyed his family, it was very interesting. He still firmly followed Chu Yunsheng, and no one knew what he was thinking.
"Tell people to stop, we can't cross the river. The more we run, the faster we will die. If you don't want to die, sit down and hold your breath. Whether you can survive or not depends on your luck. " Chu Yunsheng stared at the direction of the jungle, holding the scabbard in his left hand, and his right hand was ready to inject the fire elemental energy into the iron rod at any time, so that he could immediately enter the fighting state after being discovered.
He always felt that there was danger lurking in the jungle. However, the danger of the sand crickets would not make him so vigilant. Although they were fierce, as long as he wanted to break out of the encirclement, he could vaguely feel that behind the sand crickets' sudden movement to the north, there was a gloomy and incomparably powerful gaze in the southern desert or even further south. This feeling might come from the cardinal, which made him faintly uneasy, so much so that his whole body tensed up, ready to face the sudden crisis in front of him at any time, such as flying feathers, snowflakes, water drops, those things that he could not guard against. The pressure of a cardinal was far greater than that of the shadow man, even if it was once a more terrifying spirit.
Amir was dazed for a moment. Only then did he remember the habits of the sand crickets that Chu Yunsheng had told him last night. Finally, he realized that if he continued to run around, he would die. Taking a deep breath, he tried to calm himself down, and said to his entourage, who was also in a daze, as if he was afraid that the sand crickets would hear him, "What are you waiting for? Tell the mayor and the others to stop! "
That entourage looked flustered, but he did not know whether he was dead or alive. He stumbled forward, and while running, he shouted, "Stop! Stop! Stop!"
During the process, he also tripped several times, but he did not have time to care about that. The mayor had already led the team to cross the stream.
Just a few minutes later, the people who first crossed the stream and entered the dense jungle came back like a tide, squeezing together with the people who were crossing the stream, and shouted, "Run! Turn around, turn around! Run back! "
