Chapter 512: Have mercy on your children
The old man sat down on the ground at this time, he struggled to stand up, but he couldn't stand up, he could only raise his hand in vain, and shouted: "O sin, that's the Desert Holy Maiden, you are rebelling against the Desert God!
Liu Da glanced at him with disdain and said, "Old man Zhuo, I will now tell you with the village chief of Shamu Village to leave Shamu Village with your family! ”
As he spoke, he patted the steel knife in his hand.
The old man finally had nothing to say, and he slowly crawled up to the dead young man with a painful look on his face.
Liu Da stood at the top at this time, and then shouted: "The villagers of Shamu Village are all fine, I have meat and water in my house, you all go and enjoy it." ”
"When we are full of food and drink, let's go and kill that cheap woman, and then snatch Quhe back! We must use the sword in our hands to tell the rest of the people in the desert that there is no desert god in this desert, only swords!"
The surroundings were suddenly lively, and everyone flocked into the room, drinking water and eating meat.
The old man at the door cried in a low voice, and soon fell down slowly, and he was so angry that he was out of breath.
I have traveled more worlds and seen more things, and Lin Yun is not that reckless person. If there are those monks who have just cultivated, if they see this scene, the righteous people in their hearts will rarely have to take action.
But if it is those who have cultivated for some years, they will not be so impulsive, and even for this Liu Da, many people will feel a little more joy in their hearts, what is it to kill someone? This person dares to break the so-called desert rules and dare to spell out the thousand-year-old tradition, this is a thing worth learning from.
But Lin Yun didn't do anything, he pitied the death of this old man, but he was not angry because of it, he had a little bit of a complaint about this Liu Da's behavior, but he was not angry because of it.
Because it all takes time to prove, Lin Yun has his own thoughts in his heart, judging right and wrong, he has never been a high-ranking hermit, nor is he a layman with a flood of kindness, he is just himself.
He uses his own method to judge right and wrong, and he does not stand idly by, because it will make him feel unhappy, he only does what he wants to do, and never needs to be judged by others.
This is Lin Yun.
So he was waiting, waiting for the result, to weigh the quality of this Liu Da.
These people were soon full of food and drink, their faces exuded a crazy red, and at this time they were led by this Liu Da to rob the water source with swords and weapons in their hands.
Lin Yun turned into wind and sand, turned into the qi of this world, and followed these people.
He heard every word these people said.
"When we grab the water resources, we have to be like that desert saint and ask others to sacrifice to us!"
"You can't be a little bold? we have to have Quhe, we are the gods of the desert, you see who is not respectful to us, otherwise we will directly destroy Quhe, so that they will not survive." ”
"Yes, we have to scare them, otherwise they won't give us an offering obediently!"
Listening to these people's words, Lin Yun was noncommittal, what was the difference between this and the current desert saint's approach? This was Lin Yun's idea, and these people would not realize this.
Liu Da walked in the front, with a smug face. The people around him would also discuss this with him, and he would follow along, painting a beautiful picture of the future.
Lin Yun's heart suddenly moved, he wanted to see what this so-called Desert Saintess looked like.
Although he didn't know where the Desert Maiden was, as long as his mind moved, the world was guiding him. The wind led Lin Yun, or Lin Yun turned into the wind and floated forward.
Along the way, he saw many people, all going in one direction, the expressions of these people were painful and joyful, helpless and full of hope, this was a complex emotion.
Lin Yun saw such a group of people, which also attracted his attention.
Most of them were women, a little one or twenty years old, a little older forty or fifty, and even a very old woman, all of whom were hurrying in the desert. Although they were covered in cloth, their skin had become extraordinarily dark because they had been here for generations.
The hot light fell, and they lowered their heads and hurried on their way.
The only camels, but except for the old woman, had no chance to sit, and they were all hung with things, and it was difficult for the camels to walk.
"Mazhu, you carry some Dunmeng things. The old woman sighed and said.
Hearing her speak, a sturdy woman beside her, although she had already carried a lot of things, obediently took something from a camel and put it on her shoulder.
The footprints she stepped on became heavier as she walked.
"I'm sorry for you, Mazhu. The old woman said softly.
The sturdy woman lowered her head, raised her head when she heard this, smiled hard, and then said, "Elder Woman, this is what Ma Zhu should do, I have a lot of strength, and it doesn't matter if I carry more." ”
Lin Yun looked at these things that were being carried by them, although they were wrapped, it seemed that with his mind, these things that were blocked also disappeared, and Lin Yun also saw the things inside.
Plenty of dry food, but more of it was golden sand.
"We're still a hundred miles away. The old woman whispered.
Ma Zhu snorted, obviously not moved by this distance, for these ordinary people, especially in such a hot weather, and carrying so many things, a hundred miles is indeed a long distance.
"If Ada hadn't died, we wouldn't have come. An older person in the back, but she carried a load of golden sands and said.
"Yes, I used to hear Lusang say that the Holy Land was too far away from us, but now I know that it is so far away. The sturdy woman said without looking back, but Lin Yun saw that when she said the name of Lu Sang, her emotions exploded.
In an instant, Lin Yun felt a lot of emotional power, longing, anger, pain, hope, and struggle.
"But they're dead, and now they're going to let us come, and the Cloth Shirts still have to survive. The old woman raised her head and shouted to the rest, "Hurry up, come back and fetch more water!"
The group was a little more active, but it fell silent even faster.
"God of the desert bless, have mercy on your descendants. ”
Lin Yun's heart moved, wanting to bring a burst of rain to these people, but he found that he couldn't do it at all. You can summon the wind, you can move the sand, you can even condense the flames, but you can't summon water, even a drop.
Lin Yun quickly realized, maybe this is the rule restriction here, that is to say, this interface is like this, it was like this when it was formed, this is his rule.
Lin Yun was also helpless, he could only sigh, and then drifted away with the wind, according to the words of these people, then the so-called holy land not far ahead.
It was a long hundred miles for these people, but it was only a moment for Lin Yun. Soon he saw the Holy Land, and at this moment he suddenly thought of the group just now, how far had they gone at this time?
A mile of land?
Lin Yun had a faint understanding in his heart, he wanted to grab it, but it quickly dissipated. Lin Yun understood that this was an opportunity that had not yet arrived, and it would take time.
Lin Yun saw the Holy Land.
Contrary to the desert scene everywhere, it is an oasis with lush jungle trees.
Lin Yun looked around, and he quickly discovered something.
In a place in the oasis, which was supposed to be a place of sacrifice, Lin Yun saw that a tribe had already come here, putting a lot of gold, silver and jewelry, and the rest of the people were praying loudly on the ground.
Opposite them was a well with secluded water, which was the most beautiful view in the desert.
Not far away stood a large number of guards, different from those who always carried cloths, all dressed in armor and holding snow-shiny weapons in their hands, looking coldly and haughtily at these people who had come to sacrifice.
"Offer sacrifices to the Rando, please have mercy on the gods of the desert, and ask the saints of the desert to be generous!"
It is said that these people threw all the gold, silver and jewelry into the well water, and soon disappeared, and the well water continued to bubble.
However, after a while, a few water droplets floated inside, and then more and more, and the faces of these people of the Lando tribe suddenly appeared with joy, and they took out the prepared utensils and respectfully placed them on the ground.
Lin Yun also found that these water droplets seemed to have been condensed, just like the water in the river of divine texts that he had condensed at the bottom of the hillside.
At this time, the droplets began to fall into the vessels, and when they were about half-filled, the well water returned to calm.
The elder of the Lando tribe hurriedly ran over and shouted loudly: "Please have mercy on the Holy Maiden, this water is not enough for the Lando tribe to use for a year, please be merciful." So saying, he threw himself at it, as if trying to continue filling it with water from the well.
Immediately, an iron arrow shot from a distance and landed in front of the man.
"Die in front of the Quhe Holy Well without permission!" a voice came from afar.
The old man crawled on the ground, continued to plead, and said, "Holy Maiden, please have pity on the poor Lando tribe, this water is really not enough. ”
"Each village clan only has one chance, if you don't have enough water, collect more tribute, and come back next year!"
Hearing this voice, the old man still stood up slowly, and was supported by several Lando people, and left here step by step, turning his head from time to time to look at the well, which seemed to be full of water.
Of course, Lin Yun could hear them.
Wrath. "This greedy saint wants so much gold and silver every year!"
Vituperate. "Someday the god of the desert will open his eyes!"
Grumble. "Why aren't we saints? ”
These people gradually walked away, and they did not dare to have the slightest impatience in front of those heavily equipped ironclad guards, because they all knew that these guards were used to kill.
Lin Yun had been watching from a distance, watching the villagers throw the tribute into the well, and then follow the water inside, most of them were a little unwilling, but they still had to go back.
There were seven wells in the entire oasis, but only three were opened, and if they didn't come in time, they could only wait in the back, and there were many people who fell to the ground and died.
Lin Yun watched here for a few days, and then finally waited for the arrival of the group, and when those women saw the oasis, they fell to their knees one after another, and there were words in their mouths.
These villages are all miserable, but if you compare them carefully, these people are even more miserable. Lin Yun looked at their team and found that the sturdy woman had disappeared from the team. The old woman who took the lead climbed down from her camel, then knelt on the ground, and her breath gradually disappeared......
Then another older woman stepped forward, and instead of mourning, she commanded two men to lift the old woman, and then led them to a place to rest.
Many villages stared at the women, and no one said hello or spoke.
Feeling these gazes, the women clung to their weapons, led their camels, carried gold and silver, and found a corner to stay. They sat in a circle, silence after the initial joy.
For them, this war to change water is not the end of victory.
Lin Yun knew that he might have to do something, so he walked into the wellhead and looked down quietly.
Finally, the group of women came to fetch water.
They respectfully knelt on the ground, facing the well, and spoke words of praise.
Then, just like other villages, they threw the golden sand they picked into the well water, but compared to other villages, they still brought too little sand, so the water that came out next should be even less.
At this time, Lin Yun was beside him, and he conjured up his form, but of course these people couldn't see it. He also looked at the water, and he also noticed that the water given to the village this time was exceptionally small.
"There is so little water. A woman whispered.
The water was not even full of what they had brought, which was far from enough for the normal water of a village, but the well water had returned to calm, and the guards in the distance looked at the people here coldly, ready to take action at any time.
"Let's go. The older woman whispered.
"Desert Flower Village, don't come next year. A man dressed in white walked out, followed by several guards, apparently the big names of this holy place.
"What do you mean, sir?" asked the woman, staggering in disbelief, "is the god of the desert going to abandon his people?"
The man in white frowned, obviously not wanting to have more contact with this person, so he replied impatiently: "There are not even a few men in your village, what are you doing in the desert? The water just now is not for you, it is for you to drink on the road, so find another village earlier!"
The women were immediately furious, and the woman who took the lead tried to rush forward, but was stopped by the swords of several of the guards.
The other villages also made it to the point and burst out laughing.
"Come to our village, there are still some young men in our village who are not matched, so we will accept you with great mercy!"
"Come to our Huashi Village, the fattest woman, tell you, grandpa likes you like this, come and follow me, and you won't worry about drinking water for a year. ”
"A village full of women even came here to change the water, how can you live, the little doll can't be born on your own!"
When all kinds of words came out, it became more and more unbearable. These women were trembling with anger, but there was nothing they could do, their threat was still too weak for these people.
"Shut up!" The man in white suddenly snorted coldly, and the guard next to him drew his sword, and a piercing sound sounded, and the people around him suddenly became quiet.
Only then did the man in white snort coldly, and said lightly to these women: "I just passed on the words of the holy woman to you, a village with only women and children cannot survive in the desert, you can do it yourself." In short, next year, you are not welcome here, and the Quhe River will not give you a drop of water. ”
"My lord!" the woman who took the lead fell to her knees and said, "I beg you to be merciful, there are still men in our village, and they will grow up in less than ten years!
