Chapter 438: Xu Qi's Changes (2)
Congratulations to Xiong Xiaobai for becoming the best deacon
After saying that, he pulled out the long sword on his back and began to dig in the ground. Everyone didn't say a word, they dug up one after another, and after a while, they dug a big pit and threw more than a dozen corpses such as Wang Liang into the pit and buried them. Then Xu Ziyan clapped his hands and stood up, walked to the incense cart again, unloaded the incense cart from the horse's body, and said:
"Tear down the incense cart, make a fire with it, and let their horses go, and we'll rest in place for a while."
Everyone dismantled the incense cart into pieces, piled them together, and built a bonfire. Then the rest of the horses were released. Everyone gathered around the campfire, eating dry food and drinking water.
Xu Ziyan didn't say anything about Xu Qi killing Wang Liang and others just now, although Xu Qi didn't discuss it with him in advance, but Xu Ziyan also knew that Xu Qi was thinking about the safety of his own people. It's just that after Xu Ziyan has experienced many things, he has acted closer to the Tao, and he doesn't want to change the things he once promised. Even if it causes trouble, everything is fate. Whether it's a blessing or a curse, I was a little entangled in my heart, but I quickly put this matter down.
"Captain, this space is really uncomfortable. You can't use spells, you can't fly, you can't use True Yuan, you can only use True Qi. It is completely the cultivation method of mortals in the secular world, and ten layers of cultivation cannot be used for three layers, when will we be able to leave this unfortunate place? Xu Tianluo said sullenly.
"Wait until we go to Chen Guo and take a closer look," Xu Ziyan also said worriedly.
The future is unknown, although through the dangerous forest, see the humans. But who would dare to say that humans are not dangerous?
Midnight.
The bonfire in the middle had been completely extinguished, and the luxurious incense cart had completely turned to ashes. The twelve people gathered around the campfire opened their eyes one after another, and the light flickered in the night, and after half a night of pranayama, everyone had recovered from fatigue.
"Departure"
Xu Ziyan snorted lightly and stood up. Everyone also stood up, turned over their horses, and ran out of the col with "hulala".
In the dead of night, there was no one in the wilderness. Xu Ziyan and the others galloped all the way. When it was dawn, there were pedestrians on the road, and Xu Ziyan and the others slowed down and walked along the official road.
After traveling for another half a day, at noon, the group came to Jinmen City, the second largest city in the Yang Kingdom. When they entered the city, everyone shouted that they wanted to have a good meal, so they didn't bother to appreciate the luxury of Golden Gate City, so they found a restaurant and walked in.
Twelve people were divided into two tables and sat together. When the food was served, everyone ate and drank silently.
The first is that everyone has not had a good meal for a few days, and the second is that there are many people in the restaurant, and they are running away, so they try to keep silent. The third is that they also want to hear what happened to Yang Guo recently. So everyone was eating in silence and listening with their ears pricked up.
Sure enough, the surrounding conversations aroused the interest of Xu Ziyan and the others.
"Dude, I heard that our army has entered the border of Chen State"
"yes, that's funny."
"What's going on? What's so funny? Don't hide it, dude, tell us a few to hear."
A middle-aged man in a white shirt with a shrewd face first picked up the wine glass in front of him, squeaked, took a sip, and then put down the wine glass and glanced at everyone. Seeing that everyone was looking at him, he slowly spoke with satisfaction:
"Originally, our Yang State's army didn't think that you all knew that it would be so early to move troops to Chen State, so far, a large amount of grain and grass waiting to be transported to the front line has been hoarded on the banks of the Kinmen River in this city, and Qinghe Town, which is ten miles away from our Kinmen City, is gathering troops to the front line, which shows that our Yang State is not ready to start a complete war, and the war broke out very suddenly."
"yes, what's this for?"
Several people at the same table asked one after another. Xu Ziyan and the others glanced at each other and pricked up their ears.
The man in the white shirt took another sip of the wine glass in front of him, and then put it down, but did not speak, but looked at the empty wine glass. A person next to him hurriedly picked up the wine jug and filled the wine glass of the white-shirted man.
"Brother, you say, let's listen"
The man in the white shirt was obviously satisfied with the attitude of the crowd, and continued reservedly:
"Actually, it can't be said that our Yang Kingdom is not ready to go to war, but it is not completely ready. So when the opportunity came, our Yang Kingdom would not hesitate to go to war."
"What chance?" The man who poured the wine just now asked.
"Just a few days ago, the Chen State sent an envoy headed by the Prince of the Chen State to our Yang State. Unexpectedly, the envoy of the Chen State discovered the secret that our Yang State was going to send troops to their Chen State, so he fled overnight and wanted to return to the Chen State. So, while pursuing the crown prince of Chen Guo, our Yang State began to send troops to Chen Guo in advance. ”
"Ha, ha, ha......"
Everyone laughed wildly when they heard it, but Xu Ziyan and the others were secretly anxious when they heard it, and their brows gradually rose.
"Alas"
The white-shirted man let out a long sigh, and then focused everyone's attention on himself, and said with a pretended sorrow:
"Chen Guo was not fully prepared for our Yang State to dispatch so many troops, so he was defeated all the way. However, our army has been breaking through all the way, the battle line is too long, and the army and food and grass are seriously insufficient, which is also the consequence of our country not being fully prepared and rushing to war."
"What should I do?"
"Isn't this gathering troops and transporting food and grass to the front?"
"yes, yes"
Everyone nodded their heads and began to drink and chat again.
"Brother," said the man who poured wine for the man in white shirt just now, "I heard that there is going to be a party in the City Lord's Mansion tonight."
"There is such a thing, because in the past few days, the generals who have gathered the army and transported grain and grass have gathered in our Golden Gate City, and they will go to the front line in a few days, so our chief soldier has held a party for everyone."
"Brother, how do you know so well?"
"Nonsense, brother, my brother-in-law is the housekeeper of the chief soldier"
"Oh" Everyone looked at the white-shirted man enviously: "Come on, let's have a cup of respect for my brother"
",."
Xu Ziyan and the others finished their meal silently, silently left the restaurant, and came to an alley where no one was, everyone looked at Ouyang Tieyi in unison, and said:
"It's already a war, what should I do?"
Xu Ziyan pondered for a moment and said softly:
"If the two countries go to war, even if we are masters, we will be drowned in thousands of armies. What's more, we can't use the three layers of the ten-layer cultivation now, so let's leave quietly from here, go down the river, and go to Chen Guo."
"However, if the Chen Kingdom is destroyed, what will we do then?" Xu Qi said with a slight frown.
"Chen Guo and Yang Guo don't know how many years they have been fighting, where do you say that if you kill it, you will destroy it," Xu Ziyan said lightly.
Everyone nodded in agreement, but Xu Qi was still frowning, and he frowned deeply, and said in a low voice:
"Captain, I think we've been deceiving ourselves. If you can get out of this space, I'm afraid that in the past thousands of years, the people in this space have already returned to the vast continent, how can they still be trapped here? It's a space you can't go back to. ”
Xu Qi's deep voice echoed in the alley, and everyone fell silent. In fact, everyone has always had this idea, but they just don't want to face it. Now that Xu Qi said it directly, everyone's hearts sank.
"What does Brother Qi mean?" Xu Ziyan finally sighed lightly, and knew in his heart that what Xu Qi said was reasonable, and returning to the vast continent had always been his slim wish. Or maybe they've been running away from facing the harsh reality. Now that Xu Qi has shattered his hope, he has no choice but to accept this fact.
"If we really can't go back, then we're going to have to face this space. And the kings in this space are not us, but Yang Guo and Chen Guo. Because our distant ancestor's family is in the Chen Kingdom, we can only go to the Chen Kingdom. ”
Xu Qi's gaze swept over everyone majestically, and he said solemnly: "Whether it is the vast continent or this space, the laws of survival will not change. If we want to live better in this space and get more cultivation resources, we must find a strong backer, just like the captain of the Taixuan Sect. And Taixuanzong in this space is the emperor of the Chen State.
Therefore, we must help Chen Guo, preferably to make a contribution to saving Chen Guo in the war. In this way, we will be valued by Emperor Chen, which is the foundation of our existence. ”
"How?" Xu Ziyan asked softly.
"Let's go out of the city first, go to the Jinmen River to see if we can burn their grain and grass, if we can burn the grain and grass of Yang State, we will go to Chen State with this great achievement, and we will definitely be able to get the attention of Emperor Chen. And with the exercises of my Seven Exquisite Minds, I will definitely be able to obtain the best cultivation conditions for us in the near future. When we become stronger, we may have the opportunity to return to the vast continent. ”
Xu Ziyan heard Xu Qi's words and sighed in his heart. Then he swept his gaze over everyone's faces in turn, and sighed again in his heart. Out of the wind chimes, Yang Gai and Yu Bo, the three people who had been in the Taixuan Sect for a long time, everyone, including Han Jiaxiang, Fang Ling and Ming Dian, especially the people of the Xu family, all flashed with excitement in their eyes.
Xu Ziyan knew that this was because they had not been in the sect for a long time, and the desire for power that the family had cultivated since childhood had not yet dissipated, and the foundation of cultivating immortals had not yet been precipitated. They are not like themselves, they have already comprehended a trace of the Great Dao, and the worldly power has lost the slightest attraction to them. But in the end, Xu Ziyan nodded and agreed with Xu Qi's opinion. Because she believed that a person who cultivated the Seven Exquisite Senses, he must know what to do and what not to do. If it is really impossible to do something, Xu Qi will not take risks.
But Xu Qi, who has not comprehended a trace of the Great Dao, where is his Dao heart? Will his state of mind be stable?.
