Since the end of the Great War in the Far North, the Hidden Killing Hall seems to have disappeared, and it has not reappeared, let alone made any moves.

In the first battle in the Far North, several masters of the Great Immortal Realm of the Hidden Killing Hall fell, and only the Qingyi Ke survived by luck.

Moreover, Nangong Shoujian also destroyed many secret strongholds of the Hidden Killing Hall in the Nine Kingdoms at the same time, which greatly damaged the vitality of the Hidden Killing Hall.

However, whether it was the parties of the Nine Kingdoms or the Heaven Swallowing Temple, they all knew very well that the Hidden Killing Hall was not suppressed so easily, and the momentary silence may be brewing a bigger outbreak.

After all, the Hidden Killing Hall and the mysterious hall master have not appeared, and no one knows what kind of character this hall master is, and how powerful he is? Perhaps only by forcing this hidden killing hall master to show up is the moment when the Hidden Killing Hall is really facing life and death.

In the countryside and fields, the thatched huts are still there, and the rattan chairs are still there, but the people who used to sit on the rattan chairs to drink tea and bask in the sun are no longer there.

Dressed in a green shirt, he walked between the fields and slowly came to the bottom of this thatched hut.

"I've come to see you. The green-shirted guest walked to the rattan chair and looked at the empty rattan chair in a trance.

In the memory of the Tsing Yi guest, there should be a black old farmer lying on this rattan chair, and the latter will definitely grin when he sees him coming, and there will be no good words in his mouth.

It's a pity that this old farmer is dead.

The green-shirted guest smiled bitterly, sat on the rattan chair, listened to the rattan chair creaking, and didn't know where his mind fell.

"I remember that you and I had just joined the Hidden Killing Hall, you were a poor person who was spurned by the sect, I was a beggar living on the streets, you laughed at me for being thin, and I hated you like a piece of black coal. The green shirt guest said, looking as if he had gone back to many years ago, with a hint of a smile on his face.

"We were tortured in the Hidden Killing Hall, and we almost lost our lives, and you still want to escape from the Hidden Killing Hall, if I hadn't dissuaded you, I'm afraid your piece of black charcoal would have died a long time ago. ”

"Later, the first time you went out to kill, but you missed, and if I hadn't arrived in time to help you kill your target, you wouldn't have survived anyway. ”

"You said that you don't want to be a killer, and your biggest wish is to go back to the countryside to farm, which made me happy for a long time and laughed at you for a long time, but now I can't laugh. ”

"What's so good about farming? Doing the same thing day after day, spending your life between these fields, doesn't seem to me to make any sense at all, but you keep saying you want to go back to your hometown and farm, and you do come back. ”

"I didn't want to bother you, because seeing that you should be living very comfortably here, there is no deceit, no intrigue, no bloody killing, no life and death, even I am beginning to envy you, this kind of life is really a hundred times stronger than a killer." ”

"If I hadn't come to you, I'm afraid you'd still be living here in peace, and no one would have bothered you. ”

Between talking to himself, the Tsing shirt guest didn't realize that he had tears in his eyes, and the death of his old friend in the past made the Tsing shirt customer blame himself, and it was even more difficult for the Tsing shirt guest to let go.

"Old man, in the end you still died for me, but I didn't realize that you were willing to die at first, and in order for me to live, if I had known that you would be like this, I would have beaten you half to death with a punch, so that you could not kill yourself. ”

"I'm coming back to see you, for us and the others, since you have entered the Hidden Killing Hall, there is no turning back, you have been liberated, but I still have to go on. ”

The green-shirted man stood up from the wicker chair, his expression had regained his composure, and then turned and left the place.

Behind the Tsing Shirt, the hut burst into flames, and black smoke billowed up, taking away all traces of this place and the only thought of the Tsing Shirt Man.

····

The deep and cold hollow valley is silent, and there is no sound, let alone birds and beasts to set foot here.

A trace of gray mist visible to the naked eye permeated this empty valley, and it was precisely because of the existence of these gray mist that those birds and beasts who strayed into this place died one after another.

The green-shirted man came to the outside of the hollow valley, looking at the gray mist in the hollow valley, with an inexplicable look on his face.

"There is still a distance before the hall master really wakes up, and he must find more life to make the hall master wake up faster, although he is not very willing to do this, but this step is still to go out after all. The green shirt guest said that he had already stepped into the empty valley.

The vast gray mist did not approach the Tsing Shirt Guest, but instead separated a road, allowing the Tsing Shirt Man to walk into the valley safely and soundly.

Walking all the way to the deepest part, the green-shirted man looked up and saw a large killing weapon hidden here in the Hidden Killing Hall.

It was a huge stone statue with a hideous and ugly face, with ten huge arms stretched out, and a huge eyeball on top of the huge head, which occupied almost the entire skull.

The body of this stone statue is similar to that of a human body, but it is covered with dense strange marks, as if there are countless small insects crawling all over the body of this stone statue, and the first glance makes people's scalp tingle.

However, the green-shirted guest looked at this stone statue, but he was very calm, as if he was looking at an ordinary stone statue.

The huge eyeball suddenly lit up with a glimmer of light, and then the eyeball suddenly turned, and the scarlet eyes stared at the green shirt.

"I'm here to liberate you. The man in the green shirt said softly, reaching out and placing it on the stone statue.

Airplanes!

There was a sound, and the stone statue was covered with cracks, as if it was about to shatter.

But under the crack, there was a surge of life, and the figure of the green-shirted man retreated, flying into the air, looking down at the stone statue.

At this moment, the stone statue was completely shattered, and the hideous thing that was sealed inside let out a roar, and the gray mist that could kill the living beings instantaneously continued to pour out from the mouth of the ugly demonic thing, as if it wanted to envelop the entire land in gray mist.

"I don't know how many more people are going to die. The green shirt guest looked indifferent, and although there was complexity in his eyes, he did not regret his actions.

Releasing this monster will indeed make the earth miserable, and many people will die, but the green shirt must do this, for the sake of the hidden killing hall, for the sake of the dead old peasant, and for himself.

The monster rushed out of the deep valley, ten arms waving fiercely, and the huge eyeballs above the skull were full of tyranny.

The gray mist spread out in all directions, and all living beings shrouded in the mist, whether they were birds, beasts, insects, fish, or humans, would die in agony.

The green-shirted man took one last look at the monster, and then disappeared into the sky.

On this day, the Nine Kingdoms ushered in the first catastrophe! Since the end of the war between the two countries, the Nine Kingdoms, which had suffered a great deal of vitality, were still gradually recovering.

The Lower Three Kingdoms were completely destroyed by the Three Religions, and two of the Middle Three Kingdoms were also severely damaged and almost wiped out, so naturally it will not be able to recover for a while.

Fortunately, the Three Kingdoms came to their aid and helped the destroyed country to rebuild.

In the process, some people put forward an idea, believing that the current nine-nation pattern is too cumbersome, and the lower three countries should not continue to exist, and should be merged into the middle three countries, so that the nine countries become six countries.

In this way, if the next war between the two places breaks out again, there will no longer be such a burden as the lower three kingdoms, and the national strength of the middle three countries will be stronger than before, and the upper three kingdoms will not need to divide their forces to protect the weak lower three kingdoms.

At first glance, such a proposal seems to be very feasible and very desirable, and it has also caused a lot of discussion for a while, and many people have agreed with the corresponding, hoping that the pattern of the nine countries can be changed.

In fact, this kind of proposal does have its reason, and there is indeed a problem of imbalance between strength and weakness in the pattern of the nine countries, as strong as the Tang State among the three kingdoms, which became the main battlefield in the war between the two places, even if it was injured, but the national strength was still there, and there was no such tragic situation as destroying the country.

Not long after the outbreak of the Great War between the two regions, the three countries of the Lower Three Kingdoms fell one after another, allowing the Three Religions to successfully gain a firm foothold in the Nine Kingdoms, making the situation suddenly biased towards the Three Religions.

If it weren't for Fang Lin leading people to guard the Qianguo and support it for a long time, which hindered the pace of the three religions to a certain extent, I am afraid that the three religions would have gained a greater advantage at that time.

As for the three middle countries, it is in an embarrassing situation, if the lower three countries are merged into the middle three countries, this will not only make the upper three countries less burdensome, but also enhance the strength of the three countries, which can be described as killing two birds with one stone.

Even if the war between the two countries breaks out again, and the forces between the six countries are more concentrated, it will be much more difficult for the three religions to open the gap from the six countries.

However, in the eyes of the top leaders of the three countries, such a proposal seems desirable, but in fact it is not feasible.

The pattern of the Nine Kingdoms has existed for so many years, it is not that there is no reason for it in it, the Lower Three Kingdoms are so weak, and the Middle Three Kingdoms and the Upper Three Kingdoms want to annex, which is completely casual, but for so many years, there has been almost no such thing as a strong country annexing a weak country.

It's not that they don't have the ability, but only by maintaining this pattern can the Nine Kingdoms be able to reconcile with the three religions.

Compared to the three religions with sparse land, the combined territory of the nine countries is too large, and if the three religions want to attack the nine countries, there are only two ways to go.

The first is to storm any of the three kingdoms, open the gap in the most direct and stupid way, and attack the land of the nine kingdoms.

This method is something that neither the Nine Kingdoms nor the Three Sects are happy to see, especially the path that the Three Sects do not want to choose, because this means that the Three Sects will have to fight with the Nine Kingdoms from the beginning, and there will be no time for the Three Sects to gain a firm foothold in the Nine Kingdoms, and it will also make the Nine Kingdoms face the fiercest offensive and the most powerful of the Three Sects at the first time.

As for the second way, in addition to attacking any of the Upper Three Kingdoms, a part of the forces will be assigned to occupy the Lower Three Kingdoms, so that the Nine Kingdoms will be exposed to the enemy, which is the most favorite and most acceptable path of the Three Sects.

Because this approach allows both sides to have breathing time and the means to respond, making the battle situation more changeable and flexible.

Especially for the Nine Kingdoms, it is not a risky move to attract part of the forces of the Three Sects into the hinterland of the Nine Kingdoms by sacrificing the Three Kingdoms, but an excellent means to relieve the pressure of the Nine Kingdoms.

As long as the three sects divide their forces to occupy the lower three kingdoms, and then start attacking the middle three kingdoms, then the three sects must invest at least forty percent of their forces in the hinterland of the nine kingdoms.

In this way, the pressure on the frontal battlefield of the Three Kingdoms will be reduced a lot.

The painful experience of the past has taught the Nine Nations that only this seemingly mediocre way can win a rare opportunity for the Nine Nations to win the final victory.

To put it bluntly, the existence of the Lower Three Kingdoms is destined to be sacrificed, and the people of the Three Sects will act on the Lower Three Kingdoms first anyway, so as to take the lead and advantage, and the Nine Kingdoms are waiting for the people of the Three Sects to enter the urn, and then they will not hurry to catch turtles in the urn.

It's just that the people of the Lower Three Kingdoms have many disasters and difficulties, and every time the two places have the most dead in the battle, it is in the Lower Three Kingdoms, even on the frontal battlefield of the Tang Kingdom, and the dead people are not as many as the people in the Lower Three Kingdoms combined.

Therefore, the Lower Three Kingdoms must exist, if the Lower Three Kingdoms are merged into the Middle Three Kingdoms, in order to enhance the strength of the Three Kingdoms, so that the Three Religions have no chance to take advantage of it, then if the next war between the two places breaks out, the Three Religions can only attack the Three Kingdoms, and then the battle will be fierce and cruel, no one can imagine.

Because there is only one way for both sides to go, then there is only one way to go to the dark and kill an endless result.

····

A hundred miles away from the east of Yunguo, there is an extremely vast dense forest, but there are not many demon beasts in it, and there are even fewer powerful demon beasts.

Yunguo is one of the three kingdoms, and now it is still silently **** The wounds left over from the war between the two places, but at least it already has the appearance of a country.

On this day, outside the eastern border of the Yun Kingdom, on the head of a city, a lot of soldiers of the Yun Kingdom gathered, and at this moment, they were all extremely nervous looking at the dense forest outside the city.

A terrible roar sounded, and not only the soldiers above the city, but also the people in the city were uneasy.

In this border city, the most powerful person is just a martial artist at the peak of Tianyuan, and he has not even reached the realm of spiritual veins.

But it's no wonder, after all, it's the Lower Three Kingdoms, and the Tianyuan martial artists are already very powerful existences, and there are very few spirit vein martial artists, not to mention any spirit bones and spirit sources, which don't exist at all.

At this moment, this Tianyuan martial artist was also standing at the head of the city with many soldiers, looking at the dense forest with extremely solemn eyes.

A large number of birds swept through the sky, looking panicked, and the miserable roars of many wild beasts in the dense forest sounded, as if a catastrophe was coming.

"City Lord, what's going on?" a young soldier asked the Tianyuan master.

The middle-aged man with Tian Yuan cultivation scolded, how did he know what was going on, he had no spiritual eyes and no pupil technique, and his eyes were stronger than ordinary people, and he couldn't see what was going on in that dense forest at all.

"Look at the city lord, it seems that there is a fog filling the air. A soldier with good eyesight hurriedly said loudly.

The middle-aged man looked closely, and in addition to seeing a gray mist spreading in the dense forest, he also saw several beasts that were exhausted and shriveled and died miserably.
