Chapter Seventy-Seven: Under the Gate of the Capital
Lian Hua obviously didn't believe Yan Xi's words, but he didn't remember what happened last night, so he had to knock out his teeth and swallow it himself.
Lian Hua touched his face and calmed down, and Yan Xi dared to turn his head to look at Yun Zhu.
Yun Zhu's face was much worse than last night, it should be a churning demonic energy, and he had to use a lot of immortal power to suppress it. But Yun Zhu's cultivation is limited, so it is not a long-term solution. And the more the demonic qi is suppressed, the more serious the backlash will be in the future, Yan Xi thought to himself that he must find a way to heal Yun Zhu as soon as possible.
"How is it? Can the demonic qi still be suppressed?" Yan Xi said.
"It doesn't matter. Yun Zhu said. "Thank you just now. ”
Yan Xi raised his hand and waved, "Although I don't know what old grievances you have with Lian Hua, I think you don't blame him in your heart, otherwise you wouldn't have saved him." But since you don't want him to know, of course I will hide it for you. ”
Yan Xi's eyes were extremely hot, so Yun Zhu didn't dare to look directly, and hurriedly removed his eyes.
Yan Xi saw Yun Zhu's discomfort, and smiled lightly, "Remember what you promised me, there are still people inside waiting for me to discuss the conditions, you are at the door." ”
After Yan Xi finished speaking, he directly entered the carriage, and the ghost king in the car was finally not lying down. sat on the floor seriously, and a pair of eyes were placed on her without hesitation from Yan Xi coming in, curious and looking, as if he was observing the goods.
"The ghost king finished reading?" Yan Xi sat down in front of Hongchan, raised his hand and turned into a pot of tea, the water vapor was boiling, which made people unable to see clearly for a while.
Hong Zen said, "You owe me two things, I can't take a good look at it, how can I get the most benefit?"
Yan Xi raised his hand and poured a cup of tea for Hong Chan, "The ghost king just has a mouth, his skills are all occupied by you, and he has won Lianhua's favor, but now he wants to get huge benefits from me, this transaction is too unfair." ”
The reason why Hong Chan cooperated with them to act just now was because Yan Xi communicated with Hong Chan's divine sense, as long as Hong Chan helped them, she could promise Hong Chan one thing. Although Hongzen didn't care, he helped them in the end.
Hongchan took the tea handed by Yan Xi and tasted it in small sips. "It's unfair to the public, Yan Xi Shangshen didn't know it earlier, and when I talk about the conditions with the lord of the ghost world, I must be ready to be aware of shedding a layer of skin. ”
Yan Xi said, "Having said that, I think that people who are so proud of the Ghost King should disdain to take advantage of others." ”
Hongchan put down the teacup and raised his eyes to look directly at Yan Xi, who only felt a burst of oppression. "It's my business to take advantage of me, and you'd better not try to probe my heart, or I don't know what the consequences will be. ”
Yan Xi is also a god, how could he be frightened by Hongchan, and greeted him randomly. "Yan Xi will naturally not forget what he promised, but if it hurts heaven and reason and takes people's lives, he can't do it. ”
"Good, good, good, worthy of being the backbone of God, the righteous person. Sure enough, the righteousness was awe-inspiring, which made Hongzen very moved. That being the case, Red Zen certainly won't disappoint you. It's just that I haven't thought of this for a while, so I'm afraid that I will have to walk with God for a while. ”
Yan Xi said, "Thank you for the ghost king's understanding." But...... I have one more thing to worry about the Ghost King. ”
Red Zen's fingers rubbed the empty cup on the table, "The demonic energy on the immortal outside the car door?"
"Exactly. ”
Hong Chan said, "You think that I made the capital city, and I also laid out the formation last night, just to take your lives." And why do you think I'm going to save him? I can only say that I can't help him. ”
Although Yan Xi had expected this result, he still couldn't help but feel lost. If he couldn't find a way to exorcise the demonic qi, the longer Yun Zhu was tortured. The most important thing is that Yun Zhu's immortal power is exhausted, and it is not a matter of time before he is tempted by demonic energy.
Yan Xi said, "In this way, we don't force the ghost king, now we will find the solution ourselves, it's just ...... Please also ask the ghost king not to interfere halfway. Otherwise...... If I die, I won't be able to finish what I promised the ghost king. ”
After speaking, Yan Xi got out of the carriage and gathered everyone. All the way to the capital of Lexu.
The capital of Lexu, the most prosperous capital of Lexu.
It's just that in the prosperous capital, fatigue gradually appeared in the face of epidemics and countless sorrows.
Outside the city gates, there were countless refugees, looking tired, with only a few simple burdens on their bodies, and at first glance they had fled from the surrounding towns.
"Please, let's go inside!"
"We haven't eaten in days, give us a little food......"
"Mother, I'm so hungry, why don't they let us in?"
"I don't want it, I don't want to wait outside to die......"
......
The carriage was still some distance from the city gate, and it was surrounded by dozens of refugees, and it was difficult to advance half a step.
There was no way, Yun Zhu and Lian Hua had no choice but to tighten the reins and stop the carriage.
Yan Xi heard the voice, opened the curtain and glanced out.
Dozens of refugees surrounded the carriage and stretched out their hands to grab Yun Zhu and Lian Hua. There was a weak prayer and a cry.
"Please, this good man, give me something to eat, we have fled here and have not eaten for days. ”
"Please, please......"
Yan Xi looked at the situation outside and had a rough guess in his heart. The cannibal plague was raging, there was no solution, and everyone panicked, so they had to flee to the capital, the largest and last refuge in Lexu.
"That's human nature. Hongzen looked out the window twice and lay back down. Sometimes Yan Xi wonders if this person has no bones, and after a few days of traveling, he is extremely bored and goes out for two steps. The rest of the time is lying in the car, sleeping. And this carriage was also placed by him with all kinds of strange things, and the atmosphere of the ghost world was strong.
The ghost king made a decision after just looking at it twice, and he couldn't help but generalize. Yan Xi said.
It seemed that it had taken a lot of strength for Hongzen to open his eyes just now, and he closed his eyes again when he lay down at this time. "After staying in the ghost world for so many years, what kind of people does God think I can't see through? People are all selfish, and when they don't violate their interests, they can still live in peace and call themselves friends and lovers. Once the interests are touched, the incarnation into a demon is only instantaneous. They, O adorn themselves with self-righteous kindness and justice, but in their hearts they do the dirtiest and ugliest things. ”
"The ghost king is telling the truth, but that can only represent some people, the world is too big, there are always people the ghost king has never seen. They have a true goodness that the ghost king has never seen. Yan Xi said. "But if the ghost king doesn't believe it and is self-contained, then even if there really is, I'm afraid that the ghost king can't see it and can't feel it. ”
"Oh, is it?" said Hongzen's lazy voice, "then you can prove it to me, prove your so-called goodness." ”
"Yes. ”
After Yan Xi finished speaking, he took the remaining dry food in the carriage in his hand and walked out.
The refugees outside the carriage saw that there was movement in the carriage, and the movements in their hands became more and more frenzied. Struggling, shoving, stomping, just begging for a full meal.
"These dry foods, even Hua, you can divide them among everyone. After Yan Xi finished speaking, he handed the dry food in his hand to Lian Hua.
Lian Hua took the dry food and weighed it in his hand a few times. "That's just enough for the people here, and the others can't share it at all. ”
Yan Xi looked outside the city, and countless refugees were pouring out of the tall city walls, standing or lying, *, in pain, and enduring it.
Not far away, refugees poured in one after another, shouting outside the city gate. When he was tired and desperate, he stopped shouting, and sat outside the city gate with the others, silently accepting his fate.
