Volume 1: None of them Chapter 35: The Meaning of Roundabouts

There are four days left until the banquet.

The Tianyu Empire has a total of nine cities and one hundred counties.

On the way to Ququan Mountain, you have to pass through three large cities.

It will take more than three days.

In his hand, he held a detailed map obtained from Gu Zhe, and had some idea of the road ahead.

Previously, the three villages on the path of the Immortal Path had all been razed to the ground, which gave him a new understanding of the current turmoil of the Tianyu Empire.

The resentment generated by the three villages is of great benefit to the cultivation of Qi Jue Immortal, and the enhancement of spiritual power makes Qi Jue Shen jaw-dropping.

Absorbing resentment has no side effects on Enlightenment, but it is like taking back your own power, and it is unexpectedly comfortable and harmonious.

In just one hour, Qi Jue turned all his grievances into his own strength.

Although these grievances were not enough for him to step into the seventh order, they made up for the gap in the past few months when he had not cultivated the exercises and made slow progress.

The cultivation of spiritual power is a long process, and the Enlightenment Immortal is now in the middle of the sixth order.

Although there is no essential span, the strength of Qi Jue Ming has improved a lot now compared to the previous day.

The cultivation is fast, and there are no side effects.

This resentment can be called a cultivation artifact.

But for the sake of improving his strength, Qi Jue Ming is not so mad as to slaughter villages and kill people to gain resentment.

This defeats his original purpose of thirsting for power.

Therefore, resentment is such a thing as hard to find, and it cannot be a way to gain power.

Qi Jue meditated, and his mind suddenly moved, and he found a village on a small hill a few miles ahead.

And...... There are living people!

But the situation at this time is a little weird.

Qi Jue's expression moved slightly, and the pace under his feet suddenly accelerated, like a gust of wind shuttling.

............

In front of the village road, dozens of big men in black armor were each riding a muscular sturdy BMW and stopped on the village road.

Surrounded by fields of ploughing and weaving, in front of it are hundreds of villages where wood and straw houses weave.

But at this time, the village was quiet and strange, except for the occasional rooster crow, there was not a single living person in the village of Nuoda.

"The villages around here are almost slaughtered, but my Blood Demon Skill is trapped at the peak of the fifth order and cannot advance an inch. ”

Dozens of black-armored men were the leaders, and a brown-skinned man with a scar on his forehead and a vicious look was saying in a low tone.

"Big brother, don't be discouraged, maybe when we slaughter this village, your strength will be even better!"

Behind the black-armored man, a burly bald man rode a black horse to the big man's side and said comfortingly.

"Perhaps. ”

The fierce-looking man touched the bronze broadsword with a trace of undried blood on his waist, and spoke slowly, his eyes revealing ruthless killing intent.

"Brothers, let's go! These villagers must have taken refuge in the low hill ahead of them, and slaughtered them all. ”

The leader looked at a dense low mountain not far from the village in front of him, as well as a road up the mountain that connected the village, and said with murderous intent in his eyes.

"All the valuable things are snatched, the elderly, men and children are killed, and the women can be kept and taken away!"

The bald man got the command of the leader man, and suddenly screamed excitedly, shouting at the group of black-armored men behind him.

Immediately, he pulled the reins, held his broadsword in his right hand, and rushed into the village first.

Behind him, after hearing the bald man's shout, the dozens of people behind him all showed cruel excitement, raised their weapons, and let out a loud shout, like a black and oppressive dark cloud, rushing towards the village.

The fierce man stared at the top of the mountain, and then rode the Hummer and rushed into the village with the crowd, but he had no interest in the property in the village, and galloped directly towards the low mountain.

At this time, the summit of the low mountain.

The vegetation on the summit is a little sparse, and in a square kilometer of clearing, there is a relatively dilapidated temple.

The temple is not big, and on the temple hall is a broken statue holding a bow and arrow, with wings on its back and a handsome face.

Under the temple, at this time, it was already crowded with black and oppressive people, women, old people, children, strong men, they were crowded, it seemed that as long as they got closer to the temple, their safety could be guaranteed.

At this time, they were all uneasy and frightened.

In the crowd, there were even babies who had just been born, who seemed to be crying because they couldn't stand the oppressive environment around them, but they didn't stop crying no matter how much the women comforted them.

The entire temple was filled with all sorts of negativity.

"The village chief...... Why don't we run away......

At the entrance of the temple, a middle-aged man with stubble on his face looked at the panicked people in the temple, and was anxiously asking a hunchbacked old man in front of him.

The hunchbacked old man had turned white on his temples, the white beard at the corner of his mouth had reached his neck, and his wrinkled face was also full of melancholy at this time.

"Where to flee, where to flee? The surrounding villages have suffered, and we, ordinary people who can only farm and weave, cannot survive in those big cities at all, and only this rural land is our home......

The old man spoke slowly, looking at the middle-aged man in front of him.

"Ah Qiang, let's go, you are a powerful spiritual cultivator, you still have a great future, there is no need to accompany us vulgar ordinary people's ......"

The hunchbacked old man said, his cloudy old eyes flickered a little, and he seemed to have seen his future.

"This may be the inevitable catastrophe of our dwarf mountain village, and now you have grown up and flown out of this cage...... You shouldn't have come back......" the old man said with a sigh.

The middle-aged man named Ah Qiang looked at him with a blank look and was a little anxious.

"Village Chief...... Staying alive is the most important thing now! You should also know that these robbers have no humanity at all! The villages that were invaded before are in ruins! Not a single person in the entire village can survive the knives of these butchers!"

The old man sighed slowly as he listened to Ah Qiang's louder and louder words.

The panicked villagers were also attracted by Cuong's loud voice at this moment, and their eyes all looked here.

"Cuong, I know, I know you're worried about our safety. ”

The old man stretched out his whole arm and reluctantly patted Cuong's shoulder.

"But it is precisely because of the brutality and ruthlessness of these bandits that we cannot leave here...... Our ancestors have lived here for generations, and this land has taken root in our hearts, and if this home is destroyed, where will we have a home to return to?"

When everyone heard the old man's words, their original panic and anxiety were actually alleviated.

"Village Chief!"

Cuong looked helpless and anxious.

He immediately turned his head to look at the crowd.

"Come with me, everyone! I'm going to die if I keep hiding here!"

Just as everyone looked at each other, a dark-skinned old man stood up from the crowd and said slowly.

"Liu Qiang, I think the village chief is right, this has always been our home, and it is impossible for us to abandon this place...... You still don't want to dissuade us anymore. ”

Liu Qiang's eyes were anxious: "Uncle Ma!"

As Uncle Ma's words fell, everyone who had been hesitant and silent before suddenly spoke one by one.

"Yes, this is our home! We can't leave here!"

"There are houses and farmland that I built here, and I can't go!"

"Even if you die, you have to die here!"

Suddenly, everyone's emotions were aroused, and they expressed their attitudes one after another.

This made Liu Qiang feel a deep sense of powerlessness.

Go or stay?

Liu Qiang struggled incomparably.

He returned to his hometown to mobilize everyone to evacuate.

But now the villagers have all fallen into a dead end, and Liu Qiang is not persuaded to move at all.

Liu Qiang has inquired about the strength of the bandit group.

The bandit group itself is not very powerful, but their leader has the strength of the fifth order! And it is said that they are ruthless and resolute, leaving no trouble, and they have always been to kill all the species that does not leave behind.

If he abandons the crowd, he will feel guilty.

But if you stay, you will die!

Liu Qiang's heart became a mess.

He didn't expect everyone to be so stubborn, so stubborn that they would rather give up their lives than change their minds.

Just when Liu Qiang was hesitating, a cold and joking voice came from a distance, and Liu Qiang's heart suddenly became cold.

"Where are you going?"

The ferocious man with a scar on his forehead showed cruelty on his face, staring at the people in front of the temple like a hungry wolf.
