Chapter 1174: Annihilation (2)
Of course, Xie Cheng's mind couldn't be as simple as theirs, but he just passed through the passage. Using the crypt to temporarily evade the Empire's satellite surveillance, they got some respite, and if the Empire continued to pursue, they had no hiding place and would definitely be found again.
And leaving this crypt is the beginning of their real crisis. The group of people at the origin didn't know what they were thinking, and Xie Cheng had been on guard. But the origin didn't do anything, as if he really planned to fulfill the previous agreement, but it can't be taken lightly.
Now that the crypt has come out, their role in the Origin has been reduced to a certain extent, and if you want to use their Origin identity, you can still reduce a lot of danger in the no man's land. If the masters of the Origin are also looking for them everywhere, it is impossible to say that they are hiding in a corner, and it will not be long before they can see their masters.
If this is the case, the Xie family is really of little use to them. Since it's useless, can you throw it away at any time? Or maybe there are other arrangements in the no-man's land that will be done with their lives, which is also uncertain.
Now Xie Cheng can be said to have no trust in the people of the origin at all, and he can't wait to dig out their brains to see what other conspiracies they have. However, the people of origin are not without support, and they still have a usable alien tribe in their hands without telling them.
Although Xie Cheng didn't have much hope, it was always good to have another way out, so they had to send the person of origin to the coordinates of that base, otherwise the middle-aged man of origin would never tell him the location of the tribe, and he would have to be blind at that time.
After taking a deep look at the middle-aged man who was the leader of the origin, Xie Cheng finally calmed down and began to carefully observe the valley. The rest of the road was beyond his control, he looked over to the Origin and asked, "Do you know what this place is?" ”
Lu Sheng knew that it was time to speak at this time: "I just happen to know, this place is not far from our base, so leave the rest of the distance to us!" ”
Although it is not very safe to hand over his life to others, Xie Cheng can only do this, so he had to nod and say: "The rest of the journey is tired, once something happens, we will definitely protect others, we are abiding by the agreement, please rest assured." ”
The implication is that we have kept our promises, and you had better keep your reservations, otherwise we will not be able to guarantee your safety on the road. Lu Sheng smiled slightly, and he didn't get angry because of this, nodded and said, "That's natural, Elder Xie doesn't have to worry about it everywhere." ”
Xie Cheng was stunned when he heard this, but before he could ask carefully, Lu Sheng had already turned around and left, Xie Cheng could only look at Lu Sheng's back, and his face gradually became strange. He understood what Lu Sheng meant, which was to reassure him that the origin would not pit them, but the more he said that, the more strange Xie Cheng felt.
It's really strange enough that there can be such a person because of the origin, but think about it, maybe the decision-making amount of the origin is all made by those cultivators? Most of the originators in this team are ordinary people.
Thinking of this, Xie Cheng was a little relieved, shook his head, and turned around and began to straighten out his team. Because the team was scheduled to go out to an alien tribe, there was a lot of food and water. After finding a mountain spring in the valley to replenish water, the group rested for a while and set out on the road again.
Now their top priority is to find a foothold, whether it is the origin or the people of the Xie family, in the end, they will find a place where you can settle down completely, and before that, you had to rush. They knew this in their hearts, so they didn't even ask for rest when they were sick.
Changed to Lusheng to lead the team and headed in the direction of the south. Xie Cheng began to believe that Lu Sheng really knew this place, and Lu Sheng's leadership was really a little too smooth. He knew exactly where there were wild beasts in front of him, and where there would be dangerous terrain.
Of course, Xie Cheng wouldn't know that the power of the Deer Saint's divine soul had been fused with the rules, and you could almost be released thousands of miles away, and the mere investigation was not yet handy? He only thought that Lu Sheng had been to this place before, and he was very familiar with the terrain near the base.
The master leads the way, which is naturally much easier, even if it is against ordinary people, the speed of action is relatively slow, but how many of these accompanying people are real ordinary people? These people are all carefully selected, either they are physically strong and good at long distances, or at least they have a clear body cultivation, of course, it can't really be that slow.
When the sun went down, Lu Sheng told Xie Cheng that they were only half a day's journey from the base, and they should be able to reach the area where the base was located before noon tomorrow. Xie Cheng was silent for a moment when he heard this, and said to Lu Sheng: "I hope you can abide by the agreement." ”
Lu Sheng smiled and said to him, "Actually, I came to you for this matter. ”
As he spoke, he took out a map from his bosom, and saw that it had just been drawn, and the material of the map was also a torn cloth from the back of his clothes. The map depicts the nearby terrain, several important rivers and mountains, cliffs and valleys, and some wild animal settlements.
Lu Sheng pointed to four places on the map and said: "Everywhere, there are foreign tribes nearby that can accept you, their power is not weak, and they are not so hostile to humans. But you have to ask carefully, the Empire is obviously recruiting these border races right now, don't you be betrayed by the aliens again. ”
Xie Cheng was stunned for a moment, their original agreement was to send the people of origin to the base, and then they told Xie Cheng the location of an alien territory. But now that he was still half a day away from the base, Lu Sheng told him four places. Xie Cheng didn't know what they meant, didn't he really plan to pit the Xie family?
When Lu Sheng saw his appearance, he smiled: "Elder Xie doesn't need to be like this, although I am an Origin person, you can also see that I am not dealing with those people who are really in power in Origin." Now that many of my fellow believers have been killed, we are alone, and it will do me no good to trap you. Even if I hand you over to those who are in high positions, will it not do me any good? It's better to help you, and you'll have many friends in the future, after all, everyone is a traitor now, isn't it? ”
Xie Cheng's face sank when he heard this, he thought for a while, finally nodded, and said: "You're right, I'll thank you once this time, if I can gain a foothold in the territory of the alien race in the future, if you need anything, you can find me, as long as it doesn't involve the lives of the clansmen, even if I am sent to death, I will help you!" ”
Lu Sheng was satisfied, and he didn't say anything hypocritical like not letting him die, everyone knew that if Lu Sheng really used Xie Cheng in the future, it would definitely be time to die, and both of them knew it in their hearts. So after agreeing that the Xie family would continue to send them to the base tomorrow, Xie Cheng and Lu Sheng separated.
The attendant asked, "Lu Sheng, did you really give them the map?" ”
Lu Sheng smiled and said: "That map is not fake, it is not only to help them, but also to see if Xie Cheng is worth investing more in the future." Of the four tribes I pointed out to him, three of them were absolutely close to the Empire, but they were not yet clearly manifested. ”
"These three tribes will definitely join the empire side in the future under the solicitation of the empire, whether they enter the empire or be besieged by the higher races, if Xie Chengzhen brings people into these tribes, the end will definitely not be good. And the remaining one is where I want them to go. ”
"This tribe is ostensibly close to the Empire, but in fact it is a race that hates the Terrans. In fact, even the empire didn't know that in the Great War of Ten Thousand Races, this race used to be one of the higher races, but later the Terran station killed all the nobles, leaving only some humble existences with insufficient blood concentration. ”
"The appearance of these light-blooded people is not at all the same as that of the nobles, which is also one of the characteristics of that race, so no one knows the secret until now. Over the years, this race has also provided the Hong with a lot of human information and technology, and has been credited in several previous wars. ”
"If Xie Cheng can measure these three tribes and find that the tribes that can really take refuge in them will definitely not be short in the future, and may play a great role in the all-out war. In the future, once the origin returns, this person will also mean a lot to us. ”
However, it depends on whether he has the ability to measure the direction of the future, once he chooses the wrong one, it will be a catastrophe. But I didn't lie to him, at least go to any tribe, they can save their lives for a long time, even if the empire acts in the future, it won't be that I cheated him. ”
The attendant said: "The deer saint is really a last resort! Now it depends on Xie Cheng whether they can do it. ”
Lu Sheng nodded, closed his eyes slightly, and began to close his eyes to recuperate.
Before dawn the next day, everyone got up and headed southeast. Soon the sun was rising, and a criss-crossing valley appeared in front of it, stretching between the mountains, which seemed very wide and long, and at the farthest point, there was a high mountain.
Lu Sheng pointed to the river valley and said, "This is the only way to enter the base, three hundred and sixty river valleys extend in all directions, leading to the mountains in all directions. And the deepest part is where our base is, and you only need to send us to the four river valleys at the very core, and you can leave. ”
Hearing this, both the Xie family and the origin people breathed a sigh of relief. Xie Cheng also nodded slightly: "I don't thank you for my kindness, I will definitely repay Xie Cheng in the future!" ”
Lu Sheng nodded, and said as he walked: "If my guess is correct, if some people can come out of Nanduo County, they should be able to meet here, this is our pre-scheduled transfer base." If they still have people from the Empire in their ranks, they might be able to grow your ranks as well, but ......"
Xie Cheng was happy at first, and then when he heard Lu Sheng's "but", he knew that there was something wrong. If there are also grandmasters in the other teams, it is uncertain whether he can make these people surrender at that time, and if he can't, it will also be a hidden danger in the future.
Lu Sheng smiled: "If you don't mind, we can join forces, I am the general leader of this transfer operation, the origin must be all one mind, and they will never disobey my orders." When the time comes, if you have infighting, I can help you get rid of their masters. ”
Xie Cheng didn't say anything, didn't agree or object, just had a cold face. But Lu Sheng knew that he was acquiescing. For Xie Cheng's choice, Lu Sheng appreciated it even more, it seems that this person is still very smart, and he also knows the pros and cons, so he is ruthless.
So the group continued to walk, and it didn't take long to meet two groups of people from other valleys. The situation of these two pairs of people is similar to that of Xie Cheng's side, and the two teams together have only one grandmaster, and their bodies are all scarred, and they are almost exhausted.
Xie Cheng was stunned for a moment, and then remembered that these people didn't know a crypt passage like him, and they must have come through no man's land. The pursuit of the empire, coupled with the possible alien races, it is already good for them to survive in the past few days, and he also knows the leader of the Lu family, Lu Zhaoyang of the border Lu family.
"Xie Cheng?"
The team led by Lu Zhaoyang was first vigilant when they saw the people coming next to them, and then after seeing Xiteng, Lu Zhaoyang was also relieved. The Origin People of the two teams even left them directly, and joined forces with the Deer Saint to form a larger team.
Lu Zhaoyang's face changed suddenly, and then he and Xie Cheng glanced at each other, and the two sides exchanged for a while, and the people on both sides also converged together, forming a larger team. Lu Zhaoyang relaxed at this time, showed a tired look on his face, and sat on the ground.
Xie Cheng took a pot of water from his hands and walked to Lu Zhaoyang's side, handed him the kettle and asked, "Did you come directly through the no-man's land?" ”
Lu Zhaoyang nodded, and briefly told them about their experience, first they were hunted down by the empire, and the people of the origin wanted to lead the way, but he didn't worry. As a result, they encountered wild beasts in the woods, and after a hard battle, they broke away, and because the battle was too loud, it attracted the Imperial army and the aliens, and they narrowly escaped not long ago.
Unscrewing the lid of the kettle, Lu Zhaoyang looked at Lu Sheng's side and asked, "You seem to be safe?" It's still you, Brother Xie, who is capable! However, I would like to remind you that there is no possibility of cooperating with the people of Origin, although we have committed treason, but Origin is a wolf after all. ”
Xie Cheng nodded: "Of course, don't worry, I have my own plans." ”
Lu Zhaoyang also put his mind at ease, raised his head and took a sip of water.
However, at this moment, a slight piercing sound came. He only felt a chill in his heart, and the kettle in his hand fell to the ground, and the water splashed all over the ground. Lu Zhaoyang looked down at the knife in his heart, looked at Xie Cheng in disbelief, and said in disbelief: "You...... You ......"
Xie Cheng said coldly: "Old Lu, the situation is different now, for the sake of the future of our people, I have no choice but to do it, don't blame me!" ”
Lu Zhaoyang's heart was pierced, even if he was a master of the Grandmaster, he couldn't hold on for long, blood gushed out, stained his clothes, flowed on the ground, mixed with clear water, and formed a pool of magnificent red flowers in the sun.
The people who were brought over by Lu Zhaoyang were all startled when they saw this, and stood up suddenly, but they were set up by the Xie family's people with weapons. They were all exhausted, and they had long lost their ability to fight, so they could only watch Lu Zhaoyang lying on the ground like this, slowly losing his breath.
Their faces were full of grief and indignation, and some of them asked the Xie family: "Why are you doing this? It's not easy for Elder Lu to lead us over, have you taken refuge in the Origin? ”
Xie Cheng's cronies sneered: "Brother, wake up!" We are all already traitors, is there any difference between taking refuge in the origin and not in the origin? We can't go to the Origin Base, and if we want to survive, we must have only one voice in the team, and that's for our good! ”
The people of the Lu family were all silent, and no one asked why it was Lu Zhaoyang who died, Lu Zhaoyang is now seriously injured, of course Lu Zhaoyang died. As for why Xie Cheng can be intact, that is the ability of the Xie family, everyone is not a fool, of course they understand that the result is destined to be no longer necessary to discuss.
So everyone sat down again, and Xi Teng threw Lu Zhaoyang's body aside, stood up and said to everyone: "I know that some of you are not convinced, and some of you are thinking about the Lu family!" But I can tell you that we can't go back! The Empire is no longer our home! Lu Zhaoyang thought in his heart that he was an imperial man, and such an idea would not only kill himself in the future, but also kill us! ”
"There are only so many of us now, and the more people who survive, the less pressure we will have to survive in the future! We have to forget the Xie family, forget the Lu family, and forget the empire, so that we can survive in the current situation! Now that you have all lived to the present, I believe that you will not have any thoughts of martyrdom. Since everyone thinks the same thing, there shouldn't be different ideas, don't you? ”
Everyone was silent, and Lu Sheng looked at Xie Cheng from a distance, and said to the saint in the other team, "See, Saint?" Xie Cheng is a hero, and he will be able to use it in the future! ”
He Sheng nodded, and said a little helplessly: "It's not good on my side, Lu Zhaoyang is stubborn, and he always can't forget the empire, I used all kinds of methods, but I didn't let him completely rebel." Xie Cheng is indeed a hero, what are you going to do? ”
Lu Sheng spoke: "I'm going to ...... Not good! ”
Suddenly, the bodies of the Deer Saint and the Woo Saint suddenly burst out, rushing straight into the sky, directly supporting a law force field. Xie Cheng who was next to him was stunned, he didn't expect that there were actually these two masters hidden in the team, it turned out that the origin had been lying to them all along!
But now there was no time to think about this, a group of people had already rushed out from all sides of the valley, and the leader was none other than Mi Yu, followed by the cultivation masters of the four hundred pickets. A black shadow appeared directly beside Xi Teng, and the shadow turned into a dagger and landed on his throat.
Immediately after, a sword light fell from the sky, like a galaxy falling from the nine heavens, tearing the distant origin base to pieces at once, as easily as crushing a piece of earth.
The Deer Saint and the Woo Saint glanced at each other, turned around and disappeared into the sky, leaving everyone stunned and looking up at the figure in the sky.
Mi Yu smiled: "I'm sorry, you are all wiped out!" ”
