Chapter 207
Ming Ci was stunned at first, he didn't expect that Changning and they didn't even know about this problem. You know, his master took great pains to gather some information before seeing them off. However, the question asked by Changning was the easiest to inquire about among them, and some people in almost every sect knew about it.
When he saw Jun Wuwu and the others all looking at him, he was sure that they really didn't know. He stared intently, "This spatial crack appears once every ten days, and each time it opens, it takes about a quarter of an hour. You've just seen that. There are about 500,000 strange beasts that come out each time, and in addition to our line of defense, there are two lines of defense behind it. Although it was not possible to completely eliminate the alien beasts, there were not many alien beasts that wandered to the Xuanwu Continent. ”
Ming Ci said this with a rather relieved look. He had just counted the results. Although they lost nearly half of their men, they killed about 200,000 strange beasts.
Their arrival has reduced a lot of burden on the defensive line behind.
Besides, the back line of defense is not only plagued by strange beasts, they have more to deal with.
Thinking of this, he said solemnly, "In addition to dealing with the alien beasts that flow out, the two lines of defense in the back also have to deal with the attacks of demons and demons, and their burden is not light. We're not here just because of our bodies. Ming Ci's face was a little gloomy when he said this, "Although the body is also a part of the factor, it is more because the second line of defense and the third line of defense have suffered heavy losses during this time, and they can no longer bear such heavy pressure." ”
It turns out that there are so many insiders in this.
Jun Wuwu and Feng Guanchao glanced at each other, they had also inquired about some news when they were in Haoyang Sect before, but they never knew about this. It seems that the ability to block news is not bad here.
It's just that they still can't forgive Zhu Hong. Obviously, he could have done it a little more beautifully. But he didn't even want to disguise.
Are we sure we're going to die here? Or do you feel that the curse on our body is simply unsolvable, and we have no ability to return to Haoyang Sect at all?
"The second line of defense is some of our senior brothers and sisters from each sect, and the third line of defense is the elders of our sects. Now the number of people in the second line of defense is not much, it is said that there are only 3,000 people left, and the elders of the third line of defense seem to have only half of them, about 2,000 people. Ming Ci's face became heavy when he said this, "I didn't expect the demon and demon clans to be so impatient, although we don't know what their next plan is." However, knowing that they had repeatedly tried to enter here through the third line of defense, my master guessed that they might be trying to make this spatial rift even bigger. ”
Except for Mingci's slow voice, everyone present held their breath. The news hit their hearts again.
Unexpectedly, the situation has become so serious.
"Do you see the black fog in the sky?" No mistakes, no word skipping. Ming Ci pointed to the black sky, "The black fog there is the source of the calamity predicted by the Floating Gate Chess Saint Sage before—Death Qi. ”
In addition to a few people in Changning who have heard of it, they have some understanding. Everyone else looked at each other with fearful eyes.
It is said that if you stay in a place surrounded by dead qi for a long time, the Xuan Qi in your body will be lost, and your cultivation will decline.
I can't imagine how to persist in the days when I have no strength and no hope, and I have to fight against the trapped beasts? Trapped here, there is no way to improve your cultivation and participate in the vault trip, which means that there is no hope at all. This is a fatal blow to them.
"How did those beasts enter the second line of defense just now?" Changning didn't even have time to see how the remaining fierce beasts flowed out. Since the beast can get out, will we also be able to find a chance to get out of here?
"We don't know very well. We only know that after the space door is closed, those fierce beasts will gradually disappear, and as for how they disappeared, we are not very clear. "Mingci actually wanted to pay attention to this issue just now. But at that time, there was no way to observe it.
However, he was just curious, and their purpose was completely different from Changning's.
Jun Wuwu glanced at Ming Ci, and saw that he didn't seem to have the desire to explore the answer further, and a sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth. Mingci would rather die because his master has a reason to care for the world. But would anyone else want to? He didn't believe that anyone else would be willing to stay here.
Half of the people who died in just the first battle.
Everyone's life is precious, and this is not a game, but a battlefield. Maybe they will have some feelings for each sect in their hearts. But when life and loyalty are faced with a choice, how many copper plates can loyalty be worth? What's more, if the sect really valued affection, it would be impossible to let these new disciples come here, knowing that they were cursed and let them come here to die.
Although this war has begun, it is not a war that belongs to the mid-level monks. The ones who can tell the winner are those high-ranking monks. If it were fifty years from now, they would definitely be able to become a member of the High Monks by then. But now they are still a little bit behind, and now, they are only worthy of being pawns.
Jun's carefree gaze turned cold. From now on, do your best to live.
As time passed, most of the living people had woken up. Having just gone through a war, they have become mature and silent. Some people are also starting to think about the current situation and their future. People always have to grow, and the baptism of blood is the fastest way to grow.
More and more people gathered around a few people and listened attentively to their conversations.
"Mingci, did your master say when we could go back?" Jun Wuwu asked the most crucial question, and everyone present wanted to know this question. For a moment, the scene became silent.
Some people's breathing became rapid, and everyone's eyes were fixed on Ming Ci.
Ming Ci's face changed slightly, he didn't expect Jun Wuwu to ask this question, in his opinion, now is the same as when he was in the demon space, everyone needs to be united. But he forgot that at that time they had a common goal - to escape. And now they are forced to send here for some reason, most of them involuntarily. At this time, I naturally wanted to escape again. But he Mingci wants to fulfill his master's wish and stay on the front line.
He was dumbfounded for a moment.
After a long time, he sighed lightly, "Now that the Xuanwu Continent is in danger, we, as cultivators, should come out of it. Besides, all the mysteries in the world are lost, and they are all dead. Isn't this the time when we should step up? "No mistakes, no skipping words.
Looking at the crowd around him, he saw that they didn't seem to be moved. He whispered, "The day the spatial rift closes is when we go out. ”
"Wow" everyone was in an uproar. Their somewhat depressed and desolate state of mind became irritable.
Spatial rifts, who knows when they will close? This rift must have been opened by the demons. Who knows when they will close? Or maybe it simply can't be closed here.
But the curse on them has no idea when it will kick in. And half of them had already died in the first battle today, and maybe they wouldn't even live to the day the curse hit.
The more I thought about it, the more hopeless I felt.
When they thought of their parents and brothers at home, as well as their masters and friends who were far away in Lianyun Mountain, they only felt a burst of heartache. Some young people who are already married and have children are even more red-eyed, and they seem to see their children being bullied because they do not have their own protection, and they seem to see their relatives displaced because of the troubled times, and they are worried and afraid......
Mingci felt that the eyes of the people nearby were becoming more and more unkind to him.
"The Tao is different, don't conspire with each other, Senior Brother Mingci will take care of himself in the future." Jun Wuwu said that he left directly.
Changning also took Wen Xu, Chang'an and Xiao Jiu and left together.
Ming Ci watched the people around him gradually leave, very stunned. Everyone has the right to choose, is it wrong for them to choose to survive? There's nothing wrong with that. It's the way of the world that's wrong.
No matter what, it was impossible for him to go against his master's will.
Jun Wuwu is right. He turned around and walked towards the Zen people.
This area is sealed, and there is no sunlight at all. The sky was gray, just like the mood of the crowd.
At this time, Jun Wuwu, Changning and others were cleaning up the battlefield with other fellow disciples. The beasts were gone, along with the corpses, and all that was left on the ground were dead humans.
"Let them be buried in the ground." Jun said solemnly.
A teenager suddenly burst into tears, "My senior brother once said that if he unfortunately dies outside, he hopes to be cremated and his ashes brought back to his hometown, and he hopes that his ashes can be returned to the place that he has always missed." This is his last wish. ”
Although the Xuanwu Continent pays attention to entering the soil for safety. However, cultivators do not have so many taboos. Jun Wuwu nodded and accepted the young man's opinion. It is better that after they flee, these companions will not be left alone. Besides, this is the territory of foreign beasts, and it is indeed impossible to be buried here.
After everything was busy, Jun Wuwu and Feng Guanchao went to find Nanxu and them.
Jun Wuwu quickly persuaded Nan Su and Li Gan, as well as Zhu Jia and Mei Qing. In fact, there is no need to say more, they already have a plan in their hearts, and as soon as Jun Yixian put forward his suggestion, everyone hit it off.
Mingci didn't know what he said to his fellow disciples. They didn't move, and no one came looking for him as Jun Wuwu had expected. Jun Wuwu didn't go to them either. Although the more people are gathered now, the better, but it is clear that Zen people still have some scruples. He didn't want these people to have scruples when they struggled with him.
They will always come to their own, and you have no firm belief in it. How long will Mingci be able to hold out? Maybe now he can still remember all the kindness that his master has done to him, but when the hurt happens again and again, after the pain again and again, can he still remember it?
