What Xing Zhen said was true, and he passed through more than a dozen villages on the way.

Most of what you see and hear is the same, and there are almost no middle-aged laborers in the village.

The elderly, weak, women and children were left behind in the villages, and there was a serious shortage of labor, and the crops did not change during the spring planting time.

It's just the border of Zhao, and the Tiangao Emperor is far from a place where it is difficult to implement the decree, so there is a lack of labor. You don't need to look at the bustling cities and counties to know that the lack of labor is definitely more serious than now.

There was a shortage of labor, the crops were reduced, and there was no surplus grain to pay to the imperial court for taxes, let alone food and clothing for ordinary people.

Not to mention the lack of grain and grass in the imperial court, the life of the people is unspeakably miserable.

This is only the shortcomings that we see in front of us, and there are even more deadly dangers.

The imperial court arrested all the sturdy men to serve as soldiers, and went to kill them when they went into battle temporarily.

Without exercise, not even a realm martial artist. The real combat power of such a military can be imagined, and it is just a weakness like bullying and bullying Yue Guo.

If the court arrests all the sturdy men and goes to serve as soldiers, the people will be left with old and weak women and children.

Ignoring the issue of inheritance, some fathers and daughters were left at home, and they became widows when they kept watching.

Whether it is a woman or a widow, even if you want to disobey women's morals, you have to have a man to do it.

Now it seems that there are enough troops. However, when the existing group of young people grow old or die in battle, there will inevitably be a fault line in the age of Zhao Guo.

At that time, Zhao Guo should have called every day, called the earth and the earth not spiritual, and couldn't find a place to cry.

In fact, the Zhao court had already seen these drawbacks, but they couldn't help it.

Taking advantage of the fact that the two powerful countries of Xiyi and Daliang did not fight, Zhao must develop its national strength as soon as possible.

With limited domestic resources, the only way to think of is to plunder its neighbors.

Attack after attack, and indeed bring back food and youth. However, if you calculate it carefully, it is to overdraft the future foundation and use it in advance.

The little puppy agreed with Xing Zhen's statement, nodded and said, "It's all to blame on the neighbors of the Zhao State, the Shang State and the Yue State have been weak for a long time. Let Zhao Guo mistakenly think that the real war is still far away, and there is time for them to grow. ”

Xing Zhen thought for a moment and asked, "Have you noticed that we have encountered a lot of scouts along the way?" ”

"Zhao Guo and Shang Guo have always been peaceful, and there shouldn't be a large number of scouts. ”

The little puppy didn't give a good face, and said speechlessly: "What do the scouts of Zhao Kingdom like to do in Zhao Kingdom, do you still want to stop it." ”

"Even if you attack the Shang Kingdom, you can still turn back and help......

At this, the puppy's words came to an abrupt end. Finally reacted, and said suspiciously: "Could it be that Zhao Guo wants to use troops against Shang Guo? It won't be so fast, right?"

Xing Zhen nodded and said, "Nine times out of ten, that's the case." ”

"Do you need to go back to inform Guan Junlang?" the little puppy hurriedly asked, it can be seen that when it comes to business, this little guy who doesn't grow up is also very concerned.

Xing Zhen shook his head slowly: "No need, Guan Junlang has already prepared, I'm afraid I know that Zhao Guo is ready to send troops now." ”

At this time, the aroma came, and it was actually the smell of barbecue. And Wenxuan's craftsmanship is good, and the fragrance is overflowing.

Xing Zhen quipped: "You haven't eaten since you practiced recently, so I can't break it." ”

"I'll go eat first, and you continue to cultivate. ”

The puppy glared angrily: "Phew, relaxation is what you said, what do you mean by not letting me eat now?"

Xing Zhen replied quite politely: "Meat is expensive, if you can save it, you can save it." ”

The puppy looked up to the sky and sighed: "I accidentally went blind by making friends." ”

Then he turned into a stream of fireflies and chased after him, shouting: "Not only to eat, but also to drink." ”

"No, wine is more expensive. Xing Zhen refused.

The little puppy simply grimaced: "You made me relax, drinking is the best relaxation." ”

After the fight, everyone sat down together. Yu Sanxing, who was exploring the path, had also returned, and it was time to wake up.

Yu Sanxing took a sip of wine and said, "Is the little puppy a soil dog successful in cultivation? ”

"Diligence is in everyone's eyes, and in my opinion, it must be a matter of blood. ”

The puppy's self-esteem was seriously damaged, and the wine in his mouth squirted out.

Then the little guy regretted it, holding the white bowl and begging: "I'm bringing me a bowl, I haven't relaxed." ”

The criminal truth committee really didn't want to continue to fight, so he simply poured a full bowl of it generously.

The puppy drank it all after being elated, and then suddenly his body tensed.

With a bang, the snow-white figure disappeared in place. At the time of its appearance, it was already a hundred feet away.

"I'm going to break through, there may be a thunderstorm, protect Yixia and Wenxuan. ”

Then the puppy was silent, and covered the body with the Shenyong Body-Measuring Armor.

Xing Zhen scolded with a smile: "Even if you have a conscience, you still know how to break through from a distance." ”

Immediately, he was so angry that the little puppy's behavior was afraid of death, and he scolded loudly: "Bastard, Thunder can beat Ao's physique, and it can also stabilize the void floating spiritual power after the breakthrough." ”

"The only chance to trigger the Thunder Tribulation before going to the Five Realms, do you want to give up like this?"

Before the thunder tribulation fell, the little puppy had the leisure to respond: "I am a great demon with noble blood, so I don't need to mind this like you human race." ”

As soon as the words fell, a long silver snake suddenly slashed down. Even with the protection of the Shenyong Tailor-made Armor, the puppy was chopped and almost fell.

Normal breakthrough in the Five Realms will not trigger the Thunder Tribulation, only the Tianjiao and others are too strong.

After these people broke through the Middle Five Realms, the aura consumed exceeded the tolerance range of the Heavenly Dao, and only then did they descend thunder.

The puppy not only seduces the thunder, but is also stronger than the ordinary Tianjiao.

Compared with Xingzhen, the difference is not too much. The little puppy once suspected that he had angered Tiandao by saying something unscrupulously just now.

It didn't dare to snort when it was protected by the Shenyong Tailor-made Armor, so it simply kept silent.

Xing Zhen is often forged, including Yixia and Wen Xuan, who are used to seeing thunder.

No one made a fuss and stood from a distance to watch.

Yu Sanxing was still holding the wine bowl, took a sip of the aftertaste and said: "Take back what I just said, since the little puppy can trigger such a thunder, it is several times more fierce than the thunder that I broke through the river realm back then." ”

"It's not an ordinary bloodline, it's true, as the puppy himself said, its bloodline is not ordinary. ”

Xing Zhen has seen the mother of the puppy cub, Kui Mastiff, and naturally knows that the blood of the puppy cub is not simple.

Without dwelling on the bloodline issue, he asked rhetorically: "Doesn't Furnace Mountain have a natural formation that can shield the Thunder Tribulation?"

Yu Sanxing replied helplessly: "I have already gone to the river realm before I was deceived to Luzi Mountain. ”

Xing Zhen was staggered: "I have been trapped in Furnace Mountain for 80 years, and it took 80 years to improve a realm." ”

Yu Sanxing doesn't have a glass heart, so he won't be hit like a puppy.

Explained: "The aura of the Seven Killing Worlds is insufficient, and it is difficult to appear Eight Realms Divine Cultivators or Martial Artists. ”

"With my qualifications, if I don't leave the Seven Killing Realms and enter a place with more abundant spiritual energy, I will have no hope of breaking through the Golden Body Realm for the rest of my life. ”

Xing Zhen was aroused by curiosity and asked, "Is it true that there are no eight realms in the Seven Killing World?"

Yu Sanxing thought for a moment and said, "Not necessarily, the age of Sha Moxi is not lower than mine. Before I entered the Furnace Mountain, the Demon Brake Tin was already at the peak of the Seven Realms, and one foot had entered the Golden Body Realm. ”

"Eighty years have passed, and with his qualifications, it is very likely that he has broken through to the Golden Body Realm. ”

Xing Zhen was thoughtful and quieted down for the time being.

The next moment, Xing Zhen suddenly rushed forward, and without warning, he struck into the thunder.

The little puppy who was suffering from the thunderstorm was shocked and asked angrily, "What are you going to do? Get out of here." ”

"Tear down the armor. The sentence was really simple and replied directly.

"Bang bang bang" and then Xing Zhen raised his fist and smashed it at the puppy.

Xing Zhen was struck by lightning as if he was eating a commonplace, and it was extremely easy to enter the thunderstorm of the puppy.

The puppy is different, and every time there is a thunderstorm, they hide far away. Originally, he had insufficient strength to bear the thunderstorm, but now there is one more troublemaker.

The puppy's nostrils were full of white smoke, and he didn't know if he was angry or struck by lightning. While dodging, he scolded angrily: "Crazy, get out of here." ”

The punishment is still unheard, and he seizes the opportunity to punch, without the slightest ambiguity.

Shen Yong's tailor-made armor was indeed resistant to beating, and more than a dozen punches smashed in one place intact.

At this time, if it was just Xing Zhen's punch, the puppy cub thought that he could keep the Shenyong Tailor-made Armor. But the thunder tribulation is like a maggot on the tarsal bone, and you can't get rid of it or escape.

Xingzhen and Lei Zheng cooperate with each other, although the heavenly product is the achievement of the god Yong tailor-made armor. But if it hasn't been warmed to the rank of a demigod, it may still be smashed.

The little puppy said angrily: "You don't feel sorry for the money, do you? A Shenyong Tailor-made Armor is worth a lot of dragon pattern money." ”

Xing Zhen's personality suddenly changed drastically, and he said casually: "It doesn't matter, I don't care." ”

Talking on the lips, the action does not stop at all. There was an inaudible cracking sound.

The sound is nothing compared to thunder, but it is very noticeable in the ears of the puppy.

Crying and begging: "Xingzhen, please stop fighting." ”

Xing Zhen made up his mind to smash the Shenyong Body-Measuring Armor, and continued to punch without hearing it.

The little puppy has the heart to cry, if he didn't know that the punishment is really good, he would have sacrificed his flying sword to shoot through the damn bastard.

It's false to say that it's not distressing, and when I heard the sound of Shenyong's body armor shattering, the little puppy cub also had blood in his heart.

The little guy was also simply, after thinking for a moment and making up his mind, he gritted his teeth and put away his body-measuring armor by himself.

Expose yourself to thunder and silently endure the thunderstorm. The puppy's cultivation continued to climb, and his body actually grew slowly.

Xing Zhen handed the little gourd over and reminded: "Don't forget to let go of your soul and take the opportunity to fight Ao together." ”

The puppy didn't bother to pay attention to the bastard who fell into the well, and swallowed a big mouthful. I can't wait to drink all the wine in the gourd in one go, and I feel sorry for the death penalty.

When he returned the gourd, he kicked it away with a kick while he was really not paying attention.

After finding some ground, the puppy cub calmed down and concentrated on cultivation. After a while, the white fluff around his body was blackened by lightning.

The first time I suffered the thunder, the taste can be imagined. The puppy's persistence made Xingzhen, who thought he was not afraid of pain, a little moved.

Yes, it is not only yourself who wants to take the strongest path, but also yourself who has a mother's hatred and hatred.

The thunder lasted a quarter of an hour, and so did the puppy. When the thunder cleared, there was a black, dog-like creature in its place.

The size of the puppy has doubled, from one foot to two feet.

Xing Zhen stepped forward and patted the puppy's head, and called softly, "It's okay." ”

The puppy made a snorting sound, and Xing Zhener smiled and poured another sip of wine into the puppy.

The latter regained some strength, slowly opened his eyes, and said in a surprising voice: "I'm giving me ten heavenly sword fetuses." ”

"Impossible!" Xing Zhen didn't even think about it, and directly refused.

The little puppy was unmoved, and continued: "I don't care, two things, the first is not to call me a puppy puppy, but to call my name Xingshui. ”

"Second, there is no one less than one of the ten heavenly sword fetuses, and I will fight hard with you if there is one less. ”

Xing Zhen wanted to hammer the puppy to death now, and said dissatisfiedly: "I gave you ten sword fetuses, and you only sacrificed two." There are still eight stalks that have not been completed, and I want to be stupid when I am stupid?"

The puppy cub said in an astonishing voice: "The eight sword fetuses are cultivated at the same time, although the time is a little slower, but the first time is successful." Overall, it saves time. ”

Xing Zhen suddenly forgot about the sword fetus, scratched his head and said, "You, you opened up ten qi mansions?"
