Chapter 866: A Difficult Choice
"Gross!"
Just when Lu You carefully observed the scene in front of him, his fists were clenched, his arms were beating, and his eyes were full of murderous intent.
Beside him, Mu Yucheng retched again.
It's no wonder that Mu Yucheng's reaction was so strong, all because the scene in front of him was too miserable, coupled with the strong smell of corpses in the air, so Mu Yucheng couldn't help retching.
"Sister Mu, you go to the temple to have a look first. ”
Seeing Mu Yucheng's current performance, the corners of Lu You's mouth also showed a trace of unbearability, reached out and gently patted her back, and whispered: "It's enough to have us here." ”
"No, I don't...... Well, well. ”
Hearing Lu You's words, Mu Yucheng raised his head, and instinctively wanted to refuse, but he really couldn't resist the miserable scene in front of him and the pungent smell of corpses.
In the middle of her words, she retched again, hurriedly spoke, said yes, and walked in the direction of the temple with a pale face.
"Chief Lu, is Chief Mu okay?"
Seeing that Mu Yucheng's face was very ugly, and even his figure seemed to be a little shaky, Liu Biao, who was following Lu You's side, couldn't help but ask.
"Hehe, it's okay, it's just a normal reaction. ”
Hearing Liu Biao's question, Lu You withdrew his gaze that had been staring at Mu Yucheng, said a word to him, and then turned his gaze to the miserable-looking ordinary people in the cave, who were regarded as blood sacrifices of the Netherworld God Sect, and cultivators with relatively low realms, and the corners of his mouth twitched and said, "Are they all saved?"
"I'm afraid not. ”
Hearing Lu You's words, Liu Biao hesitated slightly, and then said: "The damage to blood and qi is too serious, and it is too difficult to save it." ”
"Even if you can barely save it, you can only suffer like the living dead for the rest of your life......"
Liu Biao's meaning is very obvious, that is, these ordinary people who were captured by the Netherworld God Sect as blood sacrifices, as well as those cultivators with relatively low realms, it is already difficult for them to be saved, even if they can barely be saved, it is better not to save them.
Because even if he can be saved, he can only be a living dead in the second half of his life, or more bluntly, a vegetative person.
Moreover, compared to ordinary vegetative people, who are only in a coma all the time, their situation is even more miserable. It's all because they have been abused by the Nether God Cult for a long time, and all the functions of their bodies have been completely disordered, and they are just a blood supply machine.
Therefore, even if you want to be a vegetative person in peace, it is impossible, and you have to endure all kinds of pain and suffering. In this way, it is better to simply give them a good time, so that they can be liberated, and it can be better.
However, although the truth is like this, Lu You and them, after all, are not demon cultists, and when facing evil demon cultivators, they can use thunder means to show the bodhisattva's heart.
When the object was changed from those demon cultivators to the innocent people in front of him, Lu You felt that no matter what, he couldn't say a short word "good".
"How many places like this are there?"
He opened his mouth several times and wanted to give an order, but in the end, he found that he really couldn't do it, so Lu You had to change the topic and asked Liu Biao: "Are there any other people who have been arrested, but are not treated as blood sacrifices?"
"Yes!"
Hearing Lu You's inquiry, Liu Biao replied without hesitation: "There are a total of thirteen such places, and there are many innocent people who have been arrested not long ago and have not had time to be used as blood sacrifices, and they are concentrated in three caves. ”
"Save people! Pick the one who can save first!"
Liu Biao's words made Lu You's teeth rattle, his fists clenched, his nails were deep in flesh and blood, and he didn't know it, he turned his head, looked at Liu Biao beside him with bloodshot eyes, and gritted his teeth and said:
"Let those Nether God Cult captives go and save people. In addition, contact Feng Ji and ask him to send people to pick up people here. ”
"Chief Lu, Feng Ji is afraid that he is powerless. ”
I had never seen Lu You so angry, Liu Biao was taken aback by Lu You's bloodshot eyes, but he still reminded Lu Youdao:
"These people who have been arrested, there are a lot of them, and they need a large number of forces to escort them, Feng Ji's men and horses, scattered to defend various big cities, are already stretched, and if you want to send people to escort them, I'm afraid it will be ......."
"Then transfer people from Liao Province, Ji Province, and the imperial capital. ”
Maybe it was because he was in a very depressed mood, but hearing Liu Biao's kind reminder, Lu You couldn't help but turn his head, raised his voice, and shouted at him: "There is a huge Great Xia Kingdom, can't you find a little bit of someone who can escort these people?"
"Yes, sir. ”
Obviously, Liu Biao was still a little surprised by Lu You's sudden anger.
Because Lu You and Mu Yucheng, although nominally, are their superiors, but no matter their cultivation or qualifications, these old guys are more powerful and profound than Lu You and Mu Yucheng.
On weekdays, Lu You and Mu Yucheng also have great respect for them, but now Lu You suddenly became angry, which shows that he is in a bad mood.
Liu Biao naturally understands this very well, in fact, seeing this tragic scene, any person, who has a human nature in his heart and a clear conscience, is afraid that all of them will feel angry.
I deeply understand Lu You's sudden anger. Liu Biao didn't say anything, just agreed and started to get busy.
……
The number of innocent people who were arrested, as well as those low-level cultivators, was extremely large, and roughly speaking, even if there were not 10,000, there must be a scale of several thousand.
With so many people, if you want to rescue them all, temporarily settle them outside the valley, and wait for the follow-up ones, the arrival of the support forces of the Great Xia Kingdom, just relying on Lu You's twenty-three people, it is not a thing that can be done.
Fortunately, not all of the people of the Demon Sect are very backbone, the Netherworld God Sect, and there are many captives who surrendered, and the number is quite a lot, there are three or four hundred people.
With these people here, plus being shocked by Lu You, I don't have to worry that these demon sect disciples will make ghosts.
Together with Mu Yucheng and Liu Biao, he watched all the innocent people who were arrested, and the cultivators with lower realms, who were originally taken away from them, released, and busily arranged a temporary resting place for them, etc.
These innocent people who were arrested, and the cultivators of the lower realms, stayed in the dungeon where they were imprisoned, and those who had been held for a long time were still blank and expressionless, like marionettes, at the mercy of others.
As soon as those who had just been arrested were excited, they had just been taken out of the cave and into the open space outside the valley, and these people immediately burst into tears, plopped down, and fell directly to the ground, kowtowing one after another, muttering something in their mouths.
Then, with instinct, he recognized that it was Lu You and Mu Yucheng who were standing on the side who rescued them, as well as twenty other out-of-body powerhouses.
These people came to them again, knelt down again, kowtowed desperately, and said something with tears streaming down their faces.
Seeing this scene, Lu You and the others were immediately extremely ashamed, especially the torture wind who was standing not far from Lu You's side, he was even more ashamed, and his face turned red.
Hurriedly stepped forward, stretched out his hand to hold on, the one closest to him, a middle-aged strong man who was about thirty or forty years old, Lu You said anxiously: "This brother, hurry, hurry up, what are you doing, these are all things that we should have done a long time ago." ”
"It's so late that we came to rescue you, we should say sorry to you, how dare you kneel and thank you. ”
Buzz, buzz.
Hearing Lu You's words, this strong man with tears streaming down his face and kneeling on the ground, his mouth was open, and he was about to say something, but above the sky in the distance, there was a roar of aircraft engines.
Boom, boom, boom!
Faster than the slow-flying transport planes, those cultivators of the Great Xia Kingdom.
Streams of light streaked across the sky, and just when the cultivators around the plane were still stepping on flying swords, faithfully acting as guards to protect the safety of the transport plane, the first few cultivators had already come to Lu You's front of them.
"Your Excellency. ”
"Your Excellency. ”
The person who came was none other than the Divine Beast Legion, Feng Ji, the head of the Black Province, and an out-of-body powerhouse under him. The two of them, with a few other cultivators behind them, had just landed on the ground, put away their flying swords, and immediately stepped forward and greeted the landing tour respectfully.
"Hmm. ”
Hearing Feng Ji's greeting, Lu You turned his head, glanced at him, and then spoke, and said slowly: "Yes, it came quite quickly." ”
"Don't praise me, Lord Commander. ”
Hurriedly bowed down, Feng Ji said with a face full of shame: "The Demon Sect in the Black Province is rampant, and the people under his rule have fallen to this, as the head of the Black Province of the Legion, I am simply unforgivable. ”
"Hmph, am I complimenting you?"
Feng Ji's words made Lu You's face cold, and he couldn't care about the two of them's subordinates, and so many ordinary people, and said to him in a stern tone:
"Look at these ordinary people, what has become of them, in the face of this tragic situation, do you think I still have the heart to praise you?"
"Yes, Lord Commander, my subordinates are reckless. ”
I have to say that Feng Ji still has a bit of conscience, if it were someone else, Lu You, a junior, dared to give him face in front of the public, I am afraid that he would have been blown up a long time ago.
However, Feng Ji's face was even more ashamed, he bent down deeply, and said with a face full of shame: "This is the dereliction of duty of his subordinates. ”
"Okay, stop talking about dereliction of duty, it's important to save people. ”
Waving his hand and interrupting Feng Ji's words, Lu You said to him impatiently.
