After a while, a tall man came from a distance, with a bow and arrows in his hand, and walked quickly to the corpse. He knelt on the ground and tried to take the gold bag away, but the corpse's hand refused to let go.

So the tall man pulled the axe from his waist and cut off the hand that held the gold bag without hesitation. Just as he was about to leave, several more hateful-looking fellows came up, each with a weapon in his hand.

The tall man realized that they were coming for the gold, too. He stepped back and axe in hand, the expression on his face almost contorted, glaring at two fire-breathing eyes, as if to warn the men not to act rashly.

However, at this moment the glitter of gold loomed in the bag, which undoubtedly irritated the men, who rushed up desperately and mercilessly hacked the tall man to the ground with all kinds of weapons in their hands.

Then they fought over the bag of gold, and a scuffle ensued on the hillside.

Yang Rui walked slowly up the hill, watching these people fall to the ground one by one and die, only the last one was barely alive, but he was covered in blood, he could hardly stand, he trembled and wanted to carry the gold bag stained with countless blood into his arms. But it was held by Yang Rui in his hands.

Yang Rui did not have the slightest pity or sadness on his face, he used a wooden stick to look at the man's forehead, and the man fell to the ground and died.

Immediately, Yang Rui gradually crushed the gold bag, and the hard gold that exuded an attractive light turned into dust that disappeared with the wind in his hands.

He looked down at the gold diggers who had died on the ground, and poked a shallow hole in the soft ground beneath his feet with his stick. In a short time, countless ants poured out of this shallow pit, and they quickly climbed up these corpses and gnawed their flesh and bones in a very short time, leaving only a pile of white bones.

At this time, countless fungi grew in the ground, surrounded the white bones, and gradually the silkworms ate them until they disappeared without a trace.

Eventually, there was a loud bang on the ground, and a suffocating gas came out of all the mines, and the frenzied gold diggers all fled, but they still had the heavy gold in their hands.

Yang Rui calmly passed through these fleeing people and left the mountain. He continued westward, through fertile but barren lands, following in the footsteps left by man.

When he came to a wide river, he stopped to watch, and found that there were still countless men, women, and children standing waist-deep on the riverbank, and the various sprinkler irrigation filled the fine sand at the bottom of the water, and carefully sifted through it, hoping to get more golden sand.

The crowd was all focused on panning for gold, and no one noticed that the shepherds around them had been able to walk across the river to the other side.

When Yang Rui reached the other side, no one expressed any objection to how he crossed the river, because they didn't care at all.

When Yang Rui stepped on the river beach, he saw the first city where humans gathered, Sodom.

It was founded by the Sumers under the leadership of Anos and Cetes, and now the Sumers have left this rich land, and the humans have occupied it, and the original Sodom has been renovated and expanded.

Yang Rui looked up, and the city was even more majestic and spectacular.

Sodom was built on a low hill. Countless laborers were pouring the tall walls under the scorching voice, and outside the city of Sodom, countless barracks had been set up, and groups of soldiers stood with weapons in their hands to be trained.

He walked slowly into the city, the smell of stinky salted fish in the air, the dirty water ran wild, the sick cattle were hiding in the corners and dying, and the once wide streets became crowded and narrow, because too many hungry poor people were kneeling on the ground and blocking the roads, begging passers-by to give them some food to live.

Crime is happening everywhere, robberies, thefts, and forcible annihilations abound. But the enforcers turned a blind eye, as long as the gold was given, even if it was a killing, it was just a trivial matter.

Yang Rui passed between them, his face expressionless. He came to the barn, where the piles of grain were locked inside the gate, and the guards at the gate forbade anyone to approach.

Yang Rui stepped forward and asked, "Why don't the food in the barn be distributed to the hungry poor?" ”

The guard sternly said, "This is to be offered to the gods, and no one is allowed to eat it without permission." ”

But Yang Rui saw that on the other side of the barn, as long as you could pay enough gold, you could get countless food from the barn.

Along the way, he saw not only the hardships of the poor, but also the extravagance of the rich. Wine was consumed in large quantities at banquets, and leftover food was given to the poor who were dying, even if it was moldy and smelly. From the palatial palace came the laughter of the and the gasp of the silver waves.

He left the palace and walked through the filthy streets with a blank face, and just as he was about to fly away, a soft hand reached out to him, and only a woman asked, "Excuse me, do you have food?" ”

Yang Rui turned his head to follow the voice, and there was a beautiful girl standing beside him, she was wearing a blue linen robe, her black hair was tucked back behind her head, and she was holding a clay basin in her hand, which contained a few bran cakes from the hard gang.

Yang Rui asked, "What's your name, what are you going to do?" ”

The girl replied, "My name is Nu Xin." Your Excellency, if you have any food leftover, please give me alms, so that I can help the poor who are dying of hunger. ”

Yang Rui asked, "Who are these people who are about to starve to death?" Why is there no food? ”

"These are people who have given up their homes to pan for gold, and they have not been able to dig for gold and have become starving. ”

Yang Rui said: "A few brans can't save them, he needs to work. Only by farming and animal husbandry can we get a stable harvest and thus survive. Moreover, these people have lost their wealth and land because of greed, and they are not worthy of pity at all. ”

Nuxin nodded and said, "I just want to help these poor people, although they used to be desperate for gold, but now they really need a bran cake to live." ”

Yang Rui looked at Nu Xin's beautiful face and said, "Nu Xin, you are a kind person. I'll tell you one thing, tonight the city will be destroyed, and if you leave the city before the moon rises overhead, you will be spared when you reach the hillside to the east of the city. ”

When Nu Xin heard Yang Rui's words, she felt a little inexplicable, and Yang Rui saw that her expression seemed to be disbelieving her words, so he pointed to the clay pot with his hand. Nu Xin looked down and saw that the few bran cakes that were originally inside had all turned into golden and fragrant unleavened cakes.

Nu Xin covered her mouth in shock and looked at Yang Rui in a daze. Yang Rui smiled and said, "Please believe me, this is God's will." ”

At night, Yang Rui stood on the hillside to the east of the city, staring at the brilliant lights of Sodom City in the distance.

When the moon came out from behind the mountain, he saw a vague figure, not alone, but a group of men, women, and children, supporting each other, and walking towards this side.

At the head of the team is Nu Xin.

Yang Rui's face showed a calm and relieved smile, and he asked Nu Xin: "I only told you alone, why do you want to tell so many people." ”

Nu Xin reverently knelt in front of Yang Rui and said, "My master, I know that you are the incarnation of God!" I thank you for your kindness. However, I don't want to enjoy God's grace alone, and I want all those who are willing to believe in your existence and believe in you to be blessed by you. ”

Yang Rui picked up Nu Xin, nodded and said, "Nu Xin, you are a kind girl, and your actions have given me hope for mankind." You and your followers will be forgiven, and those who remain in Midtown will be punished for their greed and unrepentance. ”

Nu Xin raised her head and looked at Yang Rui in the evening breeze and said pleadingly: "My master, can you also pardon the people in the city!" Give them another chance to mend their ways! ”

Yang Rui ignored Nu Xin, walked to a higher place on the hillside and stood still, he said loudly: "All sinful people in this world must be punished as they deserve. (To be continued.) )
