The pedestrian walked some distance and was faced with a reverse slope in front of them, and a small village came into view after walking through the reverse slope.

The village was deserted, and the war had brought nothing but pain and desolation.

Lonely houses are scattered on the ground.

Suddenly, there was a movement in the distance, and the group hid behind the reverse slope, only to see a group of about sixty or seventy soldiers stationed in the village, and the soldiers first checked the houses in the village and the surrounding environment, and found that there was no problem, and then removed the wooden beams on some dilapidated houses and gathered them in the center of the village to make a fire.

"There weren't many people. The eyes of this group of people lit up, especially the bald man couldn't help but lick the corners of his lips, they usually just go to the battlefield to pick up souls, but if the time is right, they will also act as robbers, and it is naturally the souls of the enemy who are robbed.

Like the hyenas on the grasslands, they specialize in picking up leftover food and rotting corpses of male lions and other predators, but they will not be stingy to show their claws if their prey is weak.

"This should be a rout army that has been lost with the large army, you look at the armor on their bodies, it is obvious that they have just experienced a fierce battle not long ago, and their breathing is very rapid, which means that they have only time to rest all the way, this is the time when they are most tired, and it is also our best chance, if you want to do it, you have to hurry up. The man in his fifties who looked a little old on the outside of the team said with a smile.

The group looked at each other, then at the group of soldiers below.

Compared to ordinary souls, the soul of a soldier seems to be more favored by the master, and its value is much higher than that of souls of the same level, and the soul here is not a small number.

You must know that the place where they are located is the area where the Great Xia Emperor Dynasty and the Great Yongshen Dynasty are at war, no matter which side of the army is not comparable to the ordinary army, and the cultivation of the soldiers here is also much higher than that of the soldiers of the ordinary imperial court.

The wealth was moving, and after a moment of hesitation, the group finally picked up the butcher knife in his hand......

There were many houses in the village, and even outside the village, there were corpses that kept running out, the ground was covered with blood, and the ground was in shambles.

Someone used the ability to collect souls, and gray-white translucent humanoid souls could be seen in the void being sucked out of the corpses on the ground and swallowed into the black vortex.

"There is good news, that is, these people are not soldiers of the Xia Dynasty, they are from the Great Yongshen Dynasty. A short man in the group breathed a sigh of relief and held up the identification token that had been scavenged from the waist of the corpse in front of him.

"If you want me to say that there is anything to worry about in this Xia Dynasty, it is just an imperial dynasty. There were voices of discontent in the ranks.

"But it was this imperial dynasty that defeated a god dynasty and retreated. The gray-haired old man said meaningfully.

The group fell silent.

Just ten miles away from the village, an army of the Xia Dynasty happened to pass by, and the leader of the team turned his head to look to the east in confusion, which was the direction of the village.

"There seems to be a killing cry coming from there. Zhang Bao said vigilantly, beside him, Xiao Nuoyan held a book of scriptures, opened the scriptures in a panic and then hurriedly flipped through them, and finally fixed his eyes on a certain page, closed his eyes and muttered to himself.

In front of him, a mirror gradually emerged from nothing, revealing a picture of the village, with many corpses piled up on the ground, and some people dragging corpses from outside the village into the middle of the village to bring out long blood stains.

"Hey, these people are devouring souls!" Xiao Nuoyan's eyes widened. Xun Yong lay lazily on his shoulder, his eyes narrowed and swept the picture in the glasses, and the frog's face showed a trace of solemnity with humanity, and he couldn't help but "croak".

Xiao Nuoyan's body was shocked, and he turned his head to Zhang Bao beside him and said: "General Xue, this group of people is not simple! Brother Frog said, the power of this group of people is very strange, there must be other existences behind it, these people should just be the minions of the people behind the scenes." ”

"The mastermind behind the scenes can be even more powerful than the entire Great Eternal God Dynasty. The corners of Zhang Bao's mouth provoked, "If you really have the strength, you would have jumped out a long time ago, and you won't sneakily hide in the dark, those who have strength are directly and openly crushing the enemy, and those who are glamorous and ghostly are not strong enough to hide in the dark." ”

"Remember, we are from the Xia Dynasty, and the Xia Dynasty is our biggest backer, so don't be afraid when you encounter a strong enemy, maybe the enemy's heart is even more afraid than ours. Zhang Bao patted Xiao Promise on the shoulder. Of course, you don't always think that someone is going to hurt you every day, you don't have a good mentality! Not everyone is an enemy. ”

Xiao Nuoyan nodded wistfully.

"But now this is the border between the two armies, and it's not good for these people to suddenly appear here without understanding clearly, and if they see it, they can't ignore it, everyone is ready to go with me. Zhang Bao led his army to the east.

"Someone is coming. The men, who were disposing of the corpses, heard the movement and poked their heads out of the village vigilantly.

"It's the army of the Xia Dynasty, everyone be careful, don't conflict if you can. The gray-haired old man admonished.

The bald man showed dissatisfaction in his eyes, glanced at the gray-haired old man, and then looked in the direction where Xia Chao's army was coming, and a hint of gloom flashed in his eyes.

"Who are you? Don't you know that a blockade order has been issued to strictly prohibit other forces from entering and leaving?" Zhang Bao rode on the black cloud horse, holding a snake spear and questioning the group of people.

"We are the monks of the Great Eternal God Dynasty Soul Refining Valley, and we are here to absorb a little remnant of the soul on the battlefield for cultivation. The gray-haired old man was the leader of this team, and he personally came forward and nodded his head.

"Oh?" Zhang Bao was a little skeptical.

"Your Excellency, rest assured, we are all soldiers of the Great Yongshen Dynasty that we have absorbed, and we have not moved the soldiers of Great Xia at all. The gray-haired old man hurriedly said.

Although the fact is that they had no chance to find the soul of the Xia Dynasty soldiers to absorb, it is also a fact that they did not absorb the souls of the Xia Dynasty soldiers.

"Hmm. Zhang Bao nodded undeniably, and then glanced at the pedestrian casually, and said in an indifferent tone: "It's a member of the sect, for the sake of you not absorbing the soul of my Xia Dynasty soldiers—then get out." ”

These words made the group of people humiliated, and they lowered their heads and turned to leave.

"Wait, you're just going away, our army has wasted so much effort to come here, and we can't let my brothers run in vain. Zhang Bao suddenly raised his Zhangba snake spear and pointed at the group of people, "Take out your storage equipment, and let me see if there are any good things." ”

The bald man in the team endured it again and again, and when he heard this, he couldn't hold it anymore, he was furious and raised the black cloth bag on his waist, and a piece of black sand burst out and turned into a shadow in the sky and rushed towards Zhang Bao, "Lao Tzu killed you!"
