Joaji's plan was simple, to have the nobles attack head-on, luring the mayor to lead the inhabitants to resist, while they escaped from the eyes and ears of the people with the help of the mutineers, and finally reached the village chief's house in search of treasures.

In the middle of the night, the nobles had already put things in order, so that Qiao Yazhi could take advantage of the night to hide people's eyes and ears from others to notice the fact that they were no longer there.

Mayor Gale slept very well at night, and since he had been here, he had slept very well, and he didn't need to worry about the intrigues of the nobles, nor did he need to care about the governance of his own territory, everything was so wonderful.

He was awakened by a sudden knock on the door, and the mayor of Gale quickly put on his clothes, knowing that the only people who would knock on his door at night were the people he had arranged to defend the nobles who refused to surrender by the side of the town.

He opened the door and asked the panting residents outside the door:

"What's the matter, didn't those nobles call?"

The person outside the door said breathlessly:

"Yes, Mayor Mare, go check it out, they've already called in."

The town didn't have any devices that could quickly notify the entire town, so Mayor Gale had to have people shout in the streets to wake up the sleeping residents.

Like Mayor Gael, the inhabitants of this area generally sleep very well, and some of those who were notified did not wake up even if they were loud, and those who woke up were dazed at first, but when they heard someone call in, they also put on their clothes and picked up their farm tools and drove out.

By the time Mayor Gale had gathered his men, the nobles had already invaded the town, and they wantonly destroyed the town's buildings as if they wanted to take revenge on their previous defeats.

The residents were very distressed when they saw this scene, this was all built by themselves, it was their own hard work, how could it not be precious.

They roared and fought with the nobles, led by Mayor Gael.

Although magic is useless, the nobles have a wealth of combat experience, and even if they are outnumbered, they have the upper hand by virtue of their own advantages and the help of the night.

And now, Joaji has led eight or nine men into Mayor Gael's house.

When Qiao Yazhi led the people into the house of Mayor Gael, he searched for it unscrupulously, he knew very well that this was his only and last chance, after this time, no matter how to cover it up, with Mayor Gael's cautious character, he would definitely find out the fact that they had come, and once the other party was on guard, it was basically impossible to succeed the second time.

So this time, it has to be successful. Otherwise......

Qiao Yaji did not dare to imagine the consequences of defeat.

They don't know the volume of the treasure, so they will look for it where they can hide it, so the problem is that they don't know what the treasure looks like, how do they know if what they find is a treasure.

Qiao Yazhi knew this problem, and so did Ke Dong. It's easy to detect, as long as you get close to the treasure, you will find that the time flow around yourself is different, because the closer you get to the treasure, the greater the effect of the treasure, which is why the more peripheral the town, the more unstable the time. In other words, if you feel that the time around you is fast and slow, moving forward and backward, then you are close to it.

Despite this, Qiao Yaji and his party did not find the location of the treasure.

"Damn, did that guy Gale hide the treasure in the ground, and I'm really going to dig three feet into the ground to find it?"

Joaji muttered to himself.

Although he scolded Gail frantically in his heart, his hands and feet were not idle, now, time is everything.

However, there is no kitchen, no living room, no bedroom, all the places that can be found are all illuminated, and only the house is demolished.

During the time when Qiao Yazhi was frantically searching, Ke Dong also came to the scene.

"So, how do you find it......"

Ke Dong scratched his head, seemingly confused.

"I'm sorry I wronged you."

Ke Dong muttered to himself as he pulled out the sword at his waist, Ke Dong is still the same equipment, no matter how he changes his clothes, he will always be a long sword, a short knife configuration.

That sword Ke Dong had already used in his duel with Hesel. And the short knife, I haven't seen Ke Dong pull it out so far.

In this way, Qiao Yazhi in the house was frantically searching, and outside the house, Ke Dong was indeed constantly cutting the wall with his sword.

If Ke Dong's use of his own power is 10, then his use of swordsmanship is 100, and he is most proud and proud of the control of the sword in his opponent.

Ke Dong is actually a timid person, this sword is his only reliance in endless dreams and vain reality, when Ke Dong has no one to talk to, and there is nowhere to vent his pain, he has always been accompanied by sacrifices.

The name of the sword is actually due to the fact that there is a painting carved on the sword.

Countless creatures were sacrificing an inexplicable thing, and the group of creatures Cedon had not found the slightest information about them anywhere, some of them were like a ball full of heads, some of them were covered with scaly eyes, and they were of all shapes, some of them were just puddles of silt.

But what they all have in common is that they are all fanatical about what they sacrifice.

This is probably where the name of the sword comes from, a ritual of sacrifice......

Although it was said that using the sacrifice to cut down the walls made Ke Dong very unhappy, only in this way could he know that the walls were old and that they were new through the feeling of the sacrifice cutting on the walls.

Through the perception of the old and new walls, Ke Dong can probably judge the location of the treasure.

Ke Dong suddenly felt that the feel was wrong, the old and the new felt were mixed.

"Is this almost there?"

Ke Dong muttered, following the uneven touch, and finally, at the junction of the house and the garden, in a corner near the land, Ke Dong's sword slashed at something that did not belong to the wall.

It turned out that it was placed in the most remote location, so as to prevent it from being detected by others.

Ke Dong knew that he had found it, but he didn't take it, but hid aside.

In the house, they have searched all the places several times, and found nothing.

"Damn, is it hiding in the yard?"

Qiao Yazhi gritted his teeth and ordered:

"Let's go, look outside."

Everyone also knew that there was no hope in the house, and they all went out with Qiao Yaji.

At this time, the mayor of Gale had already suppressed the nobles, and only a few were still resisting. And he counted the number of nobles,

"Where's Joaji!"

He suddenly became aware that Qiao Yazhi did not seem to be there, and he was still very impressed by the person who led the nobles to come to the avatar.

"Damn, I've fallen for the trick of diverting the tiger from the mountain."

He waved his arm and said loudly:

"There are still nobles who have not been caught, and everyone is chasing after me."

After saying that, he rushed out impatiently. Although the crowd did not know why everyone went and left no one to guard the attacking nobles, they still followed out of trust in the mayor of Gael.

When the fight stopped, Qiao knew that his time was running out, and the ensuing chaotic footsteps, he knew that he was exposed, and they had not yet been found.

"Damn it! Everybody follow me. ”

Now that he is caught, there is no hope at all, and he has no choice but to run for a while.

When Mayor Gale chased him to his home, Qiao Yazhi was gone, Gale vaguely felt that his treasure was still there, and he breathed a long sigh of relief and said to everyone:

"Those nobles must have run away from the town, you go after it, I'll see if there are any remnants."

After that, he kicked the residents out of their homes without waiting for them to return.

When he saw that the people had gone away, he hurried to the hiding place, and was startled at the sight of the approaching scratches on the walls, knowing that the treasure had been found.

But......

"Why don't you take it? Mr. Codon? ”

Gail asked with a smile as he looked at the darkness beside him.

Ke Dong also knew that the other party was aware of him, or that Ke Dong didn't mean to hide.

"It's useless for me to take it, on the contrary, it will make things more troublesome."

Gail looked at the smiling Colton and asked:

"Oh? Why? ”

"After I take it, you're sure to gather everyone to chase me, and that will cause me to have no time to parse it, so it's useless for me to take it. If I don't take it, you'll definitely disperse the crowd and come and check it out alone. ”

Gail looked at Codon with a praising eye,

"Very good, you were exactly right. So, what are you going to do now? ”

Ke Dong drew his sword from his waist and said:

"Just beat you."

Gail seemed to have heard some big joke and laughed.

"Beat me? You don't know that there's no way to hurt people here. ”

"I know, and I know what treasure you must have gotten some other abilities from."

Mayor Gale couldn't help but be very surprised, and then said

"You're so smart, so smart that I can't help but kill you."

Gail is not joking, he has held the treasure for so many years, and he has also studied some things, such as making his sword temporarily have the power to kill, and there is a simple interference with time.

Ke Dong smiled and said:

"That's exactly what I wanted."

Gail's face was strange:

"What an interesting person who is obsessed with death and wants to get out of here."

"So, let me give you what you want. Kedong. ”

Although Ke Dong has absolute confidence in his swordsmanship, the other party has long been invincible, how can you fight an enemy who you can't hurt the other party but the other party can hurt you?

The other party can now play gg, and then blow to you as much as he wants, and you can't fight back.

Now Ke Dong is facing such a situation, being ridden by a flying dragon, how to win, online, etc., anxious.

Moreover, Mayor Gael's swordsmanship has been continuously honed for hundreds of years, and it is not inferior to Ke Dong, and it can be said that it is still superior in some aspects.

The current Ke Dong can be said to have no chance of winning, Ke Dong knows all this, but he still rushes forward.

Caudong was not a warrior like Hessel who saw glory as his life, but instead preferred to call himself an artist.

As the two swords clashed together, the senseless battlefield began.

Gail is worthy of the perennial practice, and he suppressed Ke Dong with a single face, and the blue-white blade cut a bloody mark on Ke Dong's chest, and Ke Dong seemed to have expected all this, and quietly continued to maintain his style of play.

There is no such thing as exhaustion of physical strength here, but as time went by, there were more and more wounds on Ke Dong's body, but Ke Dong still had that gentle expression.

"Why, you haven't given up yet, you're dying."

"Really? Then I can't wait. ”

Gail looked at Ke Dong strangely, he knew very well that the person in front of him was not afraid of death, because he had many opportunities to kill the other party just now, but he never made a move, and the perennial closed life made Gail have a strong curiosity about these novel things, what kind of person is this person in front of him.

Ke Dong retreated while fighting, and Gail was not in a hurry, he couldn't lose anyway.

"Now is it!"

Ke Dong took advantage of Gail's sweep, and one rolled to the wall, and next to him was the treasure, and Ke Dong's hand stretched along his original sword marks.

When Gail saw it, he knew that he was careless, and hurriedly slashed at Kedong's arm.

Ke Dong smiled and said:

"I'm going to crush this gem if I cut it down."

Gail was shocked, put away the sword in his hand, and hurriedly said:

"Don't move, we have something to discuss."

This is the gap between Codong and Gail, one spares his life and the other does not want to die.

Ke Dong was very satisfied but said with regret:

"Mayor Gael, I just want to borrow this treasure to study, and I don't have any other ideas."

Gail smiled coldly and said:

"What, you want to threaten me? Aren't you afraid that I'll kill that little girl? ”

"Of course I'm not afraid, what does it matter to me whether she lives or dies."

Gail looked at Ke Dong and suddenly felt that this guy in front of him could not be measured by common sense. Perhaps, he really doesn't care about everything. How can such a person be defeated?

Gail let out a long sigh and said:

"I won't kill you, and in return, you must give me the Time Stone."

Ke Dong played with the stone in front of him, it was crystal clear and transparent, the shape was irregular, no matter how you looked at it, it was a good-looking stone, but the heavy feeling of time on it was not deceiving.

"Is this called the Time Stone? What a simple name. I'd love to trade it for you to kill me, but alas, I can't. Again, let me study it for a while, and I'll give it back to you. Otherwise, you can guess if this stone can withstand my sword. ”

Gail had been carefully preserving the stone since he got it, and he didn't know how hard the stone was, he didn't dare to bet on it, but Kedong did.

Gail thought for a long time, sighed decadently, and said:

"What a ploy, Ke Dong, the previous fight with me was just to make me understand one thing."

"That is, you are not afraid of death, and you are even chasing death."

"Then I took advantage of my thinking to get the Time Stone in my hand, and then used it to negotiate terms with me, which is really ...... It's crazy, isn't it? ”

Ke Dong smiled absently and replied:

"Actually, I want you to kill me in the fight, and then it's all over. Don't you know? In troubadour's stories, the villain usually dies of talking. ”

"I was invincible from the beginning of this fight, and now it can only be described as a draw. And, both of us, you're more of a villain. ”

Ke Dong did not answer, but said:

"Mayor Gael, I'm not going to borrow your room. Also, please find someone to invite my wife over. ”

Gale shrugged helplessly, and turned to look for someone, but before leaving, he turned back and asked:

"Can you tell me why you want to die?"

Ke Dong was silent for a while, Gail didn't ask, and when Ke Dong raised his head, he saw that Ke Dong's eyes were full of undecanteenable looks, and said;

"Mayor Gale, have you had a nightmare? For me, I can never tell the difference between dreams and reality. All I know is that every time I go there, I don't want to go through the pain that it brings me. Sadly, I can't even have suicidal thoughts, let alone achieve them, because someone has put a taboo in my head that will force me not to think about and not to die, unless there is some accident. Do you understand that? ”

Gail was speechless, silent for a long time, and finally said inexplicably:

"You're such a monster."

Ke Dong smiled and said:

"Someone said that not long ago."

Gail didn't linger any longer, and turned out of the garden, behind him was Codon's undetectable murmur.

"Someday, I will find you, and then, let you wander in pain forever......"

Not long after, Song Xin came to Gail's house, Ke Dong was already preparing in the guest room, and when Song Xin came in, Ke Dong was looking at the Time Stone with a focused face.

"Be careful yourself, if my attempt fails, you can leave quickly, and maybe you can live."

Ke Dong said to Song Xin, who pushed the door in.

"And what if Gail comes in?"

Song Xin was very nervous, afraid that someone would disturb her.

"Don't worry, Gail doesn't dare to take risks, and he will help us stop the others. Next, it's my business. ”

Ke Dong didn't wait for Song Xin to answer, and sank his consciousness into the stone of time.

"This is? Why do I feel familiar? ”

After Ke Dong sank his consciousness into the stone, an indescribable sense of familiarity enveloped Ke Dong's whole body. Colton seemed to see many images, changing around him.

Ke Dong frowned, didn't think too much, but tried to make his body semi-assimilate with time. To Ke Dong's surprise, the process went smoothly. Originally, Ke Dong thought that this would have a very high failure rate, but why didn't he even have a sense of obstacle.

"So, who the hell am I?"

Due to the inexplicable smoothness, Ke Dong completed it quickly, and only a short time passed outside.

Song Xin looked at Ke Dong and opened his eyes with an awkward expression, and hurriedly asked:

"What, did it fail?"

Ke Dong shook his head, dispelled the sense of familiarity in his heart, and said to Song Xin:

"Succeeded, give me your sword."

When Song Xin heard this, he quickly untied it and handed it to Ke Dong.

Ke Dong quickly assimilated the stabbing sword, and then stabbed the stabbing sword into Song Xin's shoulder.

"Magic spreads!"

Song Xin instantly felt a sense of trance, as if she and Ke Dong had spent a long, long time here, and then came to their senses.

Ke Dong looked at Song Xin and stretched out his hand.

"Come on, it's time for us to go back."

Song Xin held Ke Dong's outstretched hand tightly. Whispering to himself:

"I really want to never let go of it for the rest of my life. And, thank you. ”

It's hard to say how long it will take to travel time, it may take a long, long time, it may only take a split second, or it may even be reversed.

Ke Dong and Song Xin's travel time was short, so short that by the time Ke Dong realized that they had returned, the place where they had entered the town, at the end of a forest path.

But Ke Dong didn't seem to have turned back from the feeling of a parallel jump in time, squatting to the side with his head in his hands, and Song Xin was stunned at all.

"Why, why, why, why ......"

Ke Dong held his head and kept muttering, he seemed to feel something in the flow of time, that familiar and disgusting aura.

By the time Ke Dong adjusted his emotions, it had already passed for a while.

"I'm finally back, but Yuehua's enrollment time is coming soon, so I have to hurry up."

Song Xin was still immersed in the beauty of time travel, and suddenly heard Ke Dong speak, he was a little startled, and then asked:

"Are we back now?"

Ke Dong spread his hands and expressed helplessness.

"Yes, it's a pity that I couldn't bring back any of the treasures, it seems that Qiao Yazhi can live forever."

Song Xin bit his lip tightly, after all, all that can't come back is the hope of the empire, although it is said that there will be fewer people against the royal family, but the power of the empire has been weakened, which is undoubtedly a dangerous signal.

"I'm going to report this to my father first."

After speaking, Song Xin took out the special communication stone for the palace.

This kind of thing is extremely precious, even in the entire Star Empire, only the royal family has two groups on the surface, Song Xin took one to ensure the smooth flow of information in the convoy, and the other was in the royal family.

Ke Dong waited patiently, he knew how hard all this would hit Xingchen, but what did all this have to do with him.

When Song Xin finished speaking, her lips bit even tighter, and there was a faint flush on her face.

"When we're done, let's hurry first, after all, you don't want to sleep in the wilderness."

They are still on the road now, the most important thing is to find a hotel to spend the night first, otherwise, they can only sleep in the wild, Ke Dong's words don't matter, but Song Xin, a mage with fine skin and tender meat, can't stand it.

Song Xin obediently followed Ke Dong forward, she only ate grains for so many days, and she also missed desserts and fruits.

Ke Dong and Song Xin were still lucky, and before dark, they came across a small village.

But to Song Xin's embarrassment, she didn't bring a penny, there were servants and guards in the convoy with money, and these nobles also brought their own weapons.

Fortunately, Ke Dong brought some, originally planned to buy some jewelry for Ji Liye and the like, but now he is just using it. Although it is a gentleman's obligation for Ke Dong to invite a lady to dinner, Song Xin does not think so. In the town, Ke Dong has been taking care of her, and he brought her out, and now he still has to eat. This is a bit difficult for the arrogant Song Xin to accept.

But if you don't accept it, you have to accept it.

Ke Dong and Song Xin came to the inn, and since they had already left the town, there was no need to pretend to be husband and wife. Ke Dong asked for two rooms and some food. went to their respective rooms with Song Xin.

Song Xin was very unhappy when she came to the room, everything that followed made her feel that she owed Ke Dong a lot, and that sense of guilt was constantly tearing Song Xin's heart, Song Xin gritted her teeth and came to Ke Dong's room.

Pushing open the door and entering, Ke Dong was wiping his sword. Song Xin quietly came to Ke Dong's side and said:

"That, these days, thank you."

Ke Dong didn't raise his head and replied:

"You don't need to thank me, it's just a matter of saving you."

So, you can't talk well, every time.

Song Xin thought in her heart.

"In return, I'll give you back the bayonet sword you gave me."

To be honest, Song Xin was very reluctant, after all, this sword had a great increase in her, and it could make her live a better life in Yuehua.

"No, I'm not a mage, so it's useless for you to give it to me. Besides, if you say this in front of my sword, it is the equivalent of saying to me while my wife is around, "I'll find you a concubine." "Is it the same? And it's an insult to me to give me back what I gave you. If you don't think this sword is useful, it doesn't matter if you throw it away or sell it. ”

Ke Dong has already made it clear that he doesn't need to thank him, and Song Xin also said that if you don't need it, you don't need it, I don't need to dwell on it. Then Song Xin left angrily.

Ke Dong didn't seem to see Song Xin's departure, but just wiped his sword seriously.

"Sacrifice ......"
