Chapter 102: The Third Hand (First Shift)
The sky shook all night, making all the inhabitants of the city tremble, and many men trembled and took up arms.
The terrifying bright light that was like day lasted for more than ten minutes, making everyone think that the fierce demon had broken through the spatial crack again, causing panic for a while...... In the end, the City Lord's Mansion came forward to announce that it was a competition between the strong of the imperial court, which caused a resonance between heaven and earth.
In this way, the common people were appeased and at the same time elated.
My Qinggu country has such a terrifying powerhouse, why worry about the immortality of the fierce demon clan.
Then everyone fell into a deep sleep.
......
Night still covers the land.
In a luxurious mansion, a wealthy merchant and Kota are asleep.
Suddenly, the gate was shattered.
A group of wolf-like soldiers defending the city took them directly from their beds.
"My family official is a doctor, and he is very powerful in the medical center...... How dare you arrest people......"
Kuota glared angrily and screamed.
"Hmph...... It's you moths who catch you!"
In just over an hour, all the thousands of defenders in the city of No Regrets were dispatched...... The doctors involved in the case have their homes raided.
Overnight, those family members were reduced from superior to low-level prisoners.
On this night, the death row in the city of no regrets was full!
......
Dawn!
Some of the people who lived on hard labor had already gotten up.
A middle-aged strong man, skillfully wearing tattered clothes with his feet...... He looked at his six-year-old girl tenderly and picked up an axe.
Without his arms, he can only chop wood for a living.
Cutting wood with an axe all year round makes the strong man's teeth almost shattered, and he can only drink some porridge on weekdays, and eating vegetables will be in severe pain.
The lady was bitter and ran away with a rich businessman.
There are only two treasures left in his life.
One is a baby, a girl.
The other is a porcelain jar mixed with the ashes of more than a dozen comrades-in-arms, which have long been indistinguishable from each other.
Of course, when he dies, he will also be mixed into this altar of ashes.
Before he died, he joined hands to kill the enemy, and after he died, he drank and talked happily in the underworld.
Call!
At this moment, a sudden gust of wind flashed, blowing the tattered curtains.
"Who?"
The strong man's pupils suddenly froze, and a wave of Xiao Kill, which had been irrigated by the sea of blood from the Sword Mountain for many years, made the air frosty.
The handle of the axe in his mouth was directly bitten off.
Someone!
He looked around vigilantly.
"Daddy!"
At this time, the little girl rubbed her eyes in a daze:
"Dad, what is this?"
The little girl picked up a golden card from the side of her pillow, her big eyes flashing, very confused.
......
"Drink...... Ha ......"
It was a dilapidated courtyard in which a dozen children had already woken up.
At this time, they sweated like rain, struggling to punch one punch after another, although they were young, they were also vigorous.
Children without their parents can fall off a cliff at every step, so they know how to work hard better than anyone else.
They are war orphans.
This is the saddest group of children in the world.
But they were lucky, at least they didn't starve to death.
"You all practice martial arts well, and when you grow up, you can serve the country in order to live up to your father who died in battle...... Okay, let's have breakfast. ”
In the center of the courtyard, a blindfolded strong man, with a flick of his sleeves, pointed to the ground with a bamboo pole in his hand.
The children ran to the dinner table like crazy.
Although it was just some boiled sweet potatoes, the children ate them with relish, as if it was the most fragrant meal in the world.
Only if you are really hungry will you understand that the only criterion for judging food is whether it can be swallowed.
"Husband, you can eat some too. ”
At this time, a woman came out of the inner room, she was not beautiful, her face was yellow, and she was full of ravines.
"Woman, I have not left you all these years, and it is difficult for you. ”
The blind man sighed.
"I chose you, and I will be you for the rest of my life...... I'm much luckier than others, at least ...... You're alive. ”
The woman smiled.
"It's a pity that these children don't even have enough to eat. ”
The blind man shook his head helplessly.
"Husband, early this morning, when I was cooking, I found a gold coin card on the table. ”
"It turned out to be 5 million gold coins...... How's that good, you say?"
Suddenly, the woman was troubled, and she fell into the blind man's ear and said.
......
In the ruined temple.
Under the bridge.
Beside the city walls.
......
This night, beside countless toiling veterans, there was an inexplicable extra gold coin card.
These veterans were holding gold coin cards, and they were in tears.
"General, don't delay the future!"
Many veterans looked at the gust of wind, remained silent, and bowed with their fists.
Which general must have been this, who deducted the spoils of war and secretly distributed some living expenses.
But they were holding the gold coin card, and they were very worried in their hearts.
The tragedy of General Hu Nanyang really should not be staged again.
......
The tenth vein that runs through the body is like a rolling river, making the spiritual power gushing endlessly.
The flow of wind steps was exerted to the limit, and Zhao Chu was like a gust of wind, constantly shuttling through the streets and alleys of the City of No Regrets.
The tenth vein was so powerful that he didn't even feel any fatigue...... You must know that before, his spiritual veins were ninefold, and he had been running at the limit for so long, he should have been out of breath and his spiritual power was exhausted.
Whoosh!
One after another gold coin cards scattered, and Zhao Chu left without looking back.
He was afraid to see the smiling face of the veteran.
He was afraid that there would be heroes on their knees in thanks.
This kind of behavior should not be seen in heroes...... Post-war pensions, which they deserve, not in the form of handouts.
For a whole hour, Zhao Chu stepped on the flowing wind, and a black shadow flickered like a ghost in the complicated street...... Like the wind, it seems to surpass the wind again.
......
Mechanically scattered with gold coin cards.
Zhao Chu's mind was full of bitter and unwilling cheeks.
and the twisted and ugly faces in the Gathering Leisure Villa.
The city of no regrets is just the tip of the iceberg...... In a huge dynasty, how many lives have been lost.
He was angry, unwilling, and helpless.
The mind is in turmoil.
Zhao Chu hated the insensitivity of the dynasty, and hated those veterans, why did he abide by the worthless glory, but he had no regrets.
Bother!
Ji Dongyuan, Ze Yanhua, Huang Lingling, Wang Junchen, Qing Xuanle......
Bother!
Veterans, dynasties, military, moths......
Bother!
My thoughts were so numb that I almost burst my mind.
Splitting headaches.
Zhao Chu wanted to roar, but he couldn't open his mouth.
I don't know when.
His churning thoughts suddenly calmed down...... Like the first drop of dew on a green leaf in the morning.
Zhao Chu stepped into the air and stood in place suddenly.
At this moment, Zhao Chu felt as if he was in a vast desert, he was thirsty and hungry, like an exiled traveler, and he even saw the scene after his death.
Fell down thirsty.
The flesh and blood of the body are gnawed by vultures.
A bare skeleton, under the scorching sun, was finally buried by the wild sand.
In the end, he became one of the trillions of yellow sand, inconspicuous.
Eternal, silent, without light, without way.
This is exile.
Exile for life.
It seems that after 10,000 years, that grain of yellow sand has witnessed tens of thousands of travelers dying of thirst and reduced to the same indifferent yellow sand as him.
On this day, one palm picked it up.
He was given bones, flesh, and skin again.
Zhao Chu followed the palm of his hand and saw a huge face...... Handsome to the point of outrageous, with sword eyebrows and starry eyes, very familiar.
Rumble!
He collapsed.
This face is obviously his own face.
For the sake of the tenth vein, he was strangled by the spatial crack and disfigured...... And appearance, how can it grow on other people's faces.
"Who are you?"
Looking up at the giant, Zhao Chu was small, still like a grain of sand.
"I'm Zhao Chu, and I'm not Zhao Chu...... I am incomplete Zhao Chu. ”
The giant shattered and scattered into bits of starlight, covering the sky even more than the vast yellow sand.
Subsequently, everything in front of Zhao Chu's eyes was cracking, shattering, and collapsing.
The endless, suffocating desert shattered.
Rumble!
The hustle and bustle, the noise, and all kinds of shouts came and went.
Zhao Chu opened his eyes suddenly.
Boom!
He was hit hard.
"Fool, don't walk on the street!"
One scolded and scolded.
Zhao Chu touched his cheek, still scarred.
In front of me, there is a downtown area, which is the largest vegetable market in the city of no regrets.
Looking up at the sky, the sun has come out.
Before I knew it, more than two hours had passed.
"What happened to the desert just now?"
Zhao Chu was covered in cold sweat.
The death just now, the eternal exile in the desert, is vivid and immersive.
Rumble!
At this moment, the demon mirror in his eyes flashed with a cold light, and Zhao Chu's left eye was in severe pain.
Mirror Sumeru Soul appears!
"What...... Bodhisattva: Are you a thousand-armed Guanyin?"
At this moment, Zhao Chu was dumbfounded and looked incredulous.
On the opposite side of the mirror, there is a man sitting cross-legged!
He has an ordinary appearance, neither the invincible spirit of Hong Cliff, nor the domineering of Fu Lusheng.
But behind him, endless arms have grown.
These arms are long, short, thick, and thin...... On the palms of the arms, some have only one finger, while others are fan-like and are all fingers.
These arms are either writing or drawing...... There are also stir-fried vegetables and clay people...... Dazzling, scalp-tingling, and indescribable.
"I am the Lord of the Ten Thousand Lives Realm, Ruyi Sea!"
"By chance, you can open up a spirit arm, which is also a great opportunity!"
Ruyihai smiled slightly, an arm behind his back actually penetrated the mirror image directly, and his fingertips pointed at Zhao Chu's forehead.
At the same time, Zhao Chu's back ached suddenly, as if his bones had exploded.
Arm!
Zhao Chu was dumbfounded.
He lifted three palms, almost suffocating.
That's right!
Three.
Two palms, innate...... At this moment, he inexplicably had a third arm.
Full transparency.
This palm, which has no bones, can change its length at will...... Because there are no joint restrictions, the five fingers are as flexible as a small snake rope.
"Don't be surprised, this is the chance you got in exchange for nine deaths!"
"With the demon mirror in hand, your divine power is outstanding, this is inevitable...... There are two sides to things, you have extraordinary understanding, memory, but you will also be disturbed by more troubles. ”
"During this time, your heart has experienced a lot of trauma, and your mind can hardly bear it...... War, fighting, best friends, love, betrayal, trampling, humiliation, helplessness, anger...... So that desert catastrophe is the way you have to go...... Luckily, you've found an outlet. ”
"After Nirvana is reborn, you are spiritually transformed, which is equivalent to recasting your limbs, and thus your spiritual arm is complete...... Congratulations!"
Ruyihai seemed to be able to see through everything about Zhao Chu and explained with a smile.
"Cathartic Pathway...... Is it a gold coin card?"
Zhao Chu's transparent palms clenched and muttered to himself...... But his pupils were as clear as crystal, shimmering with a luster of enlightenment.
Ruyihai is right, he has experienced the battle on the battlefield without regrets, the death of Ji Dongyuan, the marriage of Ze Yanhua, and the tragic ending of countless veterans...... Especially the trampling of Qingxuanle.
He also suffered from the fear of disfigurement, paralyzed by two months of weakness.
Zhao Chu's heart was so confused that he couldn't sleep at all, and almost collapsed.
You must know that before participating in the Tianjiao rehearsal battle, Zhao Chu was just a waste material with a two-vein awakening, discussing with Ji Dongyuan how to survive.
Everything, like a flash flood and tsunami, rushed in the face.
Yesterday, the world in Juxian Villa was hot and cold, which made him angry to the extreme.
All emotions converge into a demon, dragging him into the illusion of life and death...... And his act of scattering nearly 100 million gold coins is the only outlet.
Although it was insignificant, Zhao Chu had a clear conscience.
How tall is it, and how tall is it...... I've done what I can, so I have a clear conscience.
This was his realization.
His enlightenment saved his life.
"If you specialize in a sub-profession, this spirit arm will be like a tiger with wings, and remember not to waste it. ”
"Help you reforge the Divine Mind Spirit Arm, I have completed the cause and effect of the Demon Mirror, and I will meet again if I have a fate!"
The sea of wishful thinking disappears.
Zhao Chu Shennian left the demon mirror, and he looked at the bustling vegetable market, as if he had come back to life.
A pickpocket quietly stole the money bag of the vegetable lady, and the thief was happy to count the harvest, but he did not find that his money bag had long since disappeared.
The pocket of the vegetable seller has an inexplicable extra money bag, and there are more gold coins in it.
Spirit Arm!
The third hand?
"After three months of leaving, it's time to go back to Xiangfeng City!"
"By the way, ask Lu Xiuming about the restoration of my appearance...... Wearing a face mask is not an option after all. ”
Zhao Chu looked at the sky and stepped lightly on the soles of his feet.
In the next breath, a black shadow disappeared from the City of No Regrets.
