Chapter 1428: Nine Cities

It's hard to go up the mountain, and it's not easy to go down.

Although everyone didn't waste time looking around like they used to do it, it took more than half a month for everyone to go down the mountain.

During this long period of time, when he was about to go down the mountain, under the guidance of Cao'er, the traveling doctor Mo said that the skin was not covered, and Mao did not learn everything, but only learned to identify medicinal materials.

"I've seen stupid people in the world, but I've never seen you so stupid!" Cao'er gritted her teeth and said, "You are more stupid than rich!"

The little monk looked at her in surprise, and Cao'er was also puzzled, "Who is rich?" she asked the little monk.

"Well, the dumbest guy in the inn. The little monk said.

"How stupid are you?" asked Cao'er curiously.

"Stupid enough to eat rats' relief food?" said the little monk.

"Haha, haha. Cao'er leaned back with a smile, "That's stupid enough." ”

......

In the nameless village of the Central Plains, in the village head inn, the rich difficulty of tidying up the inn sneezed.

He sat on a ladder and was in charge of sweeping the roof, and he looked left and right, "Who's thinking about me?"

"You're thinking too much. For the rest of his life, people were asked to move tables and chairs out of the nearby door, "No one will miss you, at most they will scold you!"

As he spoke, he asked the newly recruited raccoon dog demons, who had been in the cave a few days ago, to clean up the ground.

"Don't let go of anything. Yu Sheng said.

The floor of his inn was a newly paved stone, specially transported from the East Barren Stone Mountain.

The monster king answered yes and swept it up seriously.

"Then who's scolding me?" asked Fu Nan again.

"Needless to say, rats. Ye Zigao did not give up the opportunity to ridicule the rich, "Scolding you will take revenge." ”

When Fu Nan was repairing the roof, he blocked all the rat holes and any places where rats could enter.

"Get out. "It's hard to say rich.

was once relieved by rats, which became the pain of his life.

......

After half a month, finally, the grass and they got closer to Xia Jianmu.

On the way, I met more and more people, who were perched on the side of the road, afraid to go into the woods, as if they had come to take refuge.

Occasionally, people can be seen on the roadside who have froze to death, starved to death, or even been bitten to death by monsters.

Everyone has seen the dead, but when they see this, they can't help but feel a little sad. When he saw a woman dead on the side of the road, her body bitten off in half by a monster, and her infant child was gnawed with only half of her head left, the doctor collapsed.

"No, no, I'm not going down, I, I'm going to stay on it. Doctor You took a step back and said.

The bamboo pole monster looked back at him, "Do you think it's safe to stay on the building wood?"

It is not safe to build on top of the wood, even if you go up the mountain to collect medicine on weekdays, it is also very dangerous.

Not to mention that now, the entire underneath Jianmu has completely become purgatory.

The demon beasts they have encountered in the past few days are more than the previous days combined, all of them are bloodthirsty demon beasts that have tasted sweetness after eating people.

There are also some youkai who, for some reason, have also come to the mountains for activities.

However, these monsters and monsters were unlucky when they met the little monk, and they were all poked to death by the little monk.

Doctor You also thought of this, so he relaxed a little and decided to follow the little monk and them to continue down the mountain.

Further down, Jianmu is relatively safer, there are not so many demon beasts, but there are more people.

They all fled from the bottom of the mountain, many of them were wounded, and many of them were sick, and Cao'er treated them one by one.

After asking what happened in Shennong City, these people just shook their heads, not that they didn't say it, but they didn't know.

All they knew was that at night, with a few loud bangs, the heavens and the earth shook, the light of the fire illuminated half of the sky, and the air was full of smoke and dust.

After that, the monsters in the city began to slaughter the city.

"They don't spare anyone, they kill anyone they see!" said a woman who had a high fever and was saved by Cao'er.

These monsters also blocked the city gate, and the people could only flee to Jianmu in a hurry.

"There is a temple of medicine on the building wood," the doctor said, explaining to Cao'er, "that is, the Shennong Temple, but the name has been changed." ”

He continued: "There is a medicine temple guarding it, how did you come up the mountain?"

When she said this, the woman was a little frightened.

She still remembers the scene when she went up the mountain, "The whole medicine temple, no, no, it's gone!"

"Gone?!" Doctor You was startled, and Cao'er was also dumbfounded.

The woman nodded.

"How could it be gone?" Cao'er sat down, looking incredulous.

It was something she remembered even if she had lost her memory, where she had grinded, boiled, and refined herbs, but now it was gone.

"And. Cao'er looked at the traveling doctor, "What's the matter with the monster?"

The tour doctor was puzzled, "Isn't it normal for the Central Plains demon gods and monsters to be there?"

"I'm not asking about this, I'm asking about Shennong City!" Cao'er said, she remembered, Shennong City, along with Buddha City and Tianzun City, is known as the three major cities in the Central Plains.

These three major cities, because the Buddha and the Tao are convenient for foolish people, Shennong City not only saves people, but also treats gods and demons, so they are generally not disturbed by monsters.

How can youkai kill people in Shennong City now?

Doctor You was surprised, "When did you say this?"

"It's been a long time?"

She glanced at the little monk, who shook his head.

According to Cao'er's previous account at the inn, after she left Shennong City, she wandered around while making money.

He also didn't know how long Cao'er wandered around after leaving Shennong City before arriving at Yangzhou City.

"Tianzun City and Buddha City are now controlled by the gods of the Central Plains, as for our Shennong City, since the demon god who claimed to be the king of the Daoless Dao found out that selling medicine could make money, he drove the city lord away and occupied Shennong City by himself. Doctor You said.

"The gods of the Central Plains don't care?" Cao'er said in surprise.

As mentioned earlier, the Langzhong and medicinal herbs in Shennong City not only cure the people, but also the monsters and the gods of the Central Plains.

Shennong City was occupied, and the interests of monsters, demon gods, and even the gods of the Central Plains were also damaged.

The gods of the Central Plains should not tolerate such a bold and reckless act of a demon god.

Doctor You shook his head, "Other demon gods may not dare, but this demon god, he has a backer." ”

"Backer?"

"His grandfather is one of the Nine Cities. Doctor You said.

"Nine cities?" Cao'er was puzzled, she had forgotten this part.

"Nine cities are nine city lords, but they are not nine city lords either. Doctor You said.

These are well-known in the Central Plains.

After the Divine War, the gods of the Central Plains did not fall apart and turned into scattered sand - if so, the current Central Plains may be even more chaotic, the gods of the Central Plains have already fought because of interests, and the reason why they can't fight is because of the organization of Nine Cities.

The Nine Cities is an organization formed by nine city lords.

These nine city lords did not just govern one city, but took one city as the radiation center, and governed the surrounding territory.

Taken together, their territory is almost the Central Plains.

In other words, these nine city lords are the leaders of the Central Plains gods, and they are the ones who have integrated the Central Plains gods together.

The monster occupying Shennong City is the grandson of one of the Nine Cities, and there is a backstage, so the other gods of the Central Plains naturally don't dare to say anything about it.
