Chapter 53: Fathers and Fellows
At the foot of the Jade Seal Mountain, where the Sifang City is located, in the labyrinthine complex underground passage, the old Ni family elders looked desperately at the monks of the Ma, Le, and Bi families who were blocking the way.
The three monks who stood in front of the elders of the Ni family were not the older generation of the three major families or even the head of the family, but just the dead soldiers raised by some families. Of course, there is no need to question the sincerity of these dead men to the three major families of Ma, Le, and Bi, but they have no right to know the true core secrets of the four major families of Sifang City. Because the three major families of Ma, Le, and Bi had besieged and killed the elders including the head of the Ni family before, in the eyes of these dead soldiers, the Ni family had become the mortal enemies of the three major families of Ma, Le, and Bi. In the face of life and death enemies, they will not be provoked by the words of the enemy. Therefore, ignoring the armistice request of the Ni family elders, the dead soldiers of the three families rushed forward one by one.
"Is this the day that my Ni family is going to die?!" The Ni family elder, who was completely desperate, finally made up his mind, and resisted the dead soldiers of the three major families alone, and ordered his own dead soldiers to go to the deepest part of the underground according to the plan and unlock half of the seals of the third-order spirit snake. Although only half of the seals could be unlocked, this was already able to break the seal of the third-order spirit snake that had been sealed for more than two hundred years!
"Grandson, you take this letter to the royal capital, and tell the old king who has abdicated that our ancestors are all surnamed 'Cao'. ”
Hesitantly taking the letter from his grandfather, the young grandson asked with puzzled eyes, "Can I really meet the old king?
"As long as you report the door of the Ni family in Sifang City, the old king will definitely see you, hurry up and go, I won't be able to hold on for long!" Urging his grandson to leave quickly, the old Ni family elder roared in the narrow terrain alone, "You group of dead soldiers will pass a message to those three stupid family masters for me, the third-order spirit snake is about to be born, and Sifang City is no longer to be ashamed." If you want to maintain the continuation of the family, go to the royal capital and remind the old king that our four major families are the real royal family, and they are the real relatives of today's royal family!"
Outside the city, the civilian monks who had returned one after another after their rage were blocked outside the city gates. At the head of the city, the face of the city lord Ge Polang was very ugly. Yes, Ge Polang at this time has already understood the real situation. Although his nephew Ge Da still holds the holy weapon, the holy weapon is definitely not the nephew's! Otherwise, those wolf-like monks would not have stuffed treasures into their respective spatial rings without organization and discipline, ignoring the reprimand of their own city lord.
Ge Polang thought that his stunned youth was out, but he didn't expect to be cheated. Looking at the different-looking "flat-faced" young man in the middle of the crowd with a complicated face, Ge Polang rubbed the lighter made of gold in his hand, sighed and re-piled the harmless smile of Maitreya Buddha.
"Fellow fathers and fellow villagers, everyone be quiet!" The voice of the city lord Ge Polang spread through the stereo to the ears of the noisy monks below, making the monks below subconsciously cover their ears.
"What kind of spell is this, why can't you feel the slightest fluctuation of spiritual power?" The civilian monks below were still clamoring and shouting, but this did not prevent them from hearing what the city lord at the head of the city said. Even the monks who covered their ears could clearly hear the words of the city lord.
"The civil strife in Sifang City this time, after investigation, is completely the work of the four major families headed by the Ni family. Considering that the hundred-legged insect is dead but not stiff, it is very likely that there are the remnants of the four major families hidden among everyone. Therefore, when you enter the city, we need to verify your identity. Please line up and go into the city one by one to be inspected as required. ”
With the words of the city lord Ge Polang, two hanging baskets that could only allow one person to ride at a time were put down on both sides of the city.
"Is it necessary to be so harsh?"
"Isn't that city lord very talkative on weekdays, how can he do this today? With such a speed of entering the city, do you have to wait until tomorrow to enter the city?"
"I didn't expect this city lord to be a smiling tiger, this trick is so ruthless, let's go!"
"I have found the remnants of the four major families, everyone quickly catch them!"
"Don't fight with me, I'm going back to the city right away to nurse my son, who is only a full moon!"
"Don't push me, I'm going back to the city to decoct my grandmother!"
......
Although there was still a mess of pushing and shouting under the castle head, a small area under the city wall was designated as a safe zone where pushing and shoving was prohibited. Whoever dares to push and shove in this designated area will be greeted by the monks at the head of the city with lethal spells.
The two civilian monks, one on the left and one on the right, were quickly pulled up to the city by two powerful ape spirit beasts. After the two civilian monks were pulled up to the city, the two civilian monks were escorted down by two dead men who only obeyed Zuo Zhe's orders.
"Do you want to die or want to live?" In the hut of only ten square meters, two civilian monks with daggers around their necks shrank and looked at the two dead men with murderous faces.
"I want to live!" said the two monks without the slightest hesitation.
"If you want to live, swear allegiance to the dragon in front of you! If you break the oath, we won't let you die, and let your strength return to the mortal realm and soul level within ten years, and you won't be able to break through the heaven and man realm!"
"How can you do this, don't you know that there is a damnation for doing so?"
"Even if you are condemned, it is not your sin, do you swear or not?!" Long Jia threatened in a cold voice.
For the "Heavenly Curse" of the Spirit Power Continent, Zuo Zhe didn't particularly care. If he wants to suffer the curse of heaven, Zuo Zhe must first do those things that are not tolerated. In the Spiritual Power Continent, "Heavenly Reason is Not Tolerable" does not include things like indiscriminate killing of innocents and murderous habits. In the Spiritual Power Continent, "Heavenly Reason is not tolerated" refers to the abuse of the laws of heaven and earth by those monks who have not reached the realm of gods and men. It's like what Zuo Zhe is doing now, forcibly forcing others to be loyal to him. Once the number of people who are forcibly forced to pledge allegiance reaches a certain level, there are too many laws of heaven and earth entangled in Zuo Zhe's resentment, and Zuo Zhe will encounter the rejection of the laws of heaven and earth, and even directly encounter things like lightning struck on a sunny day, and the earth under his feet spraying magma. If he ignored these threats and continued to abuse the laws of heaven and earth, Zuo Zhe might be hunted down by mature body heaven and earth spirits like Xiaolongnu.
However, with Zuo Zhe's current state, he just let others swear allegiance to him for ten years, and generally will not encounter things like lightning strikes or heavenly punishments. After all, Zuo Zhe is not only able to persecute, but also knows how to use a big stick and a radish in one hand.
"Ah, this is a little gift for you after you swear allegiance. If you perform well enough, I will give you a set of cultivation textbooks that have all kinds of spells and exercises from the mortal realm to the heavenly realm, from the mortal-level lower grade to the heaven-level upper grade!" At Zuo Zhe's request, the rice grains beside Zuo Zhe said very arrogantly.
"Is this true?"
"What's the good of lying to you? A peerless tyrant like Secretary Long would be idle to trick you into playing?"
"Well, I swear allegiance!"
......
Although many civilian monks still had some resentment towards Zuo Zhe, who swore allegiance, in the process of taking the oath, it was not particularly strong. After all, the handman is short. In order to be able to better manage, Zuo Zhe also borrowed the point system in the game guild and established the Dragon Guild under the name of "Dragon Group". At the same time, Zuo Zhe also established a guild warehouse with a large number of natural treasures, weapons and equipment, and cultivation materials. Every monk who joins the Dragon Guild will receive a basic point reward every month as long as they do what they are asked to do. If a monk completes a guild bounty or guild quest, they will receive an additional reward. With these rewards, the monks can exchange the cultivation resources they need in the guild's warehouse.
As for guild shops such as guild shops, they have been put on hold for the time being due to the fact that the guild has been established for a short time, and the current situation is urgent. What Zuo Zhe has to do now is to gather as many monks as possible for his own use. Of course, if any of these civilian monks were willing to swear to be a dead soldier, they would be rewarded even more.
In this way, the day was spent in Zuo Zhe's precarious sitting. At nightfall, the ape spirit beasts with special strength on the city were already exhausted and paralyzed on the ground, and there were still thousands of monks waiting outside the city to enter the city. During this time of day, not all civilian monks were willing to swear allegiance. The civilian monks who refused to swear allegiance to their deaths were imprisoned in dungeons. And those monks who had already sworn allegiance to other forces, but had no way to swear allegiance to Zuo Zhe, were even deposed and imprisoned in a dungeon. It is said that the reason why the dungeon of Sifang City was built on the edge of the city wall and covered an area of a wide area was mainly to store the spirit beasts that were hunted in the beast tide.
Because all the monks who swore allegiance were required not to leak the news to the monks waiting outside the city to enter the city, until nightfall, none of the monks waiting to enter the city noticed the catty on the city.
In the middle of the night, three sneaky figures appeared on the dilapidated and lonely streets of the Sifang City. These three groups of monks are the dead soldiers of the three major families of Ma, Le, and Bi. Although Jiazi had ordered people to guard the main underground entrances in advance, those particularly secret entrances and exits were not discovered. It wasn't until the dead of night that the three monks ventured out of the underground chamber.
After all, Sifang City was built by the ancestors of the four major families of Ni, Ma, Le, and Bi, and the secrets hidden in it are not known to outsiders. The main purpose of these three groups of monks secretly infiltrating the Sifang City was to destroy the core array of the Sifang City. As long as the core array of the Sifang City is destroyed, the defensive array of the Sifang City that is strong enough to resist the beast tide will be temporarily invalidated. At that time, the three major families of Ma, Le, and Bi will be able to unite with external forces and eliminate the dragon group that occupies the magpie's nest in one fell swoop!
