The land is vast, the grassland is endless, Han Qiu is not walking fast, and he is not in a hurry.

There was no expression on Gu Que's face, just a soft sigh.

He had already woken up.

He knew that Han Qiu would leave when he woke up.

Because he knew Han Qiu, she really needed time.

So he waited until one last moment before he spoke.

Han Qiu finally left, disappearing at the end of the earth, the end of the grass.

The wind was blowing, blowing grass all over the ground, the river was clear, and there were wolves walking alone.

Gu Que shook his head and chuckled, looking at the blue sky, but he didn't know spring, summer, autumn and winter.

Is it winter or spring at this time? If it's winter, how can the grass be green? If it's spring, how can it be so cold?

Let's go, it's time to go.

It's really desolate, desolate like the heart of a bird.

He didn't want to endure such desolation and loneliness for a moment, what he needed at the moment was warmth.

But he didn't fly in the air.

As his strength grew, he had long been accustomed to running around and resisting the sky, which always made him feel empty, as if he had forgotten a lot of things.

It was as if large chunks of memory had been erased and formatted, so that after every great war, he was empty to the extreme.

Most of the time he knows what he has to do, but sometimes he doesn't know who he is or why he is alive.

Perhaps everyone will have such confusion when they are making particularly rapid progress.

It's like the college entrance examination students on Earth, the college students of the year, or the people who are at a loss on the road to survival.

But people are born to walk!

He is down-to-earth, walking forward step by step, which gives him an unparalleled sense of security.

The whole world is looking for him, and he is looking for the world.

He didn't walk fast, but he wasn't slower than ordinary people, but for the entire continent, his speed was too slow.

But he needed such time too much to settle himself, and if he could, he really wanted to rest for a hundred years.

He didn't know why it was a hundred years, maybe it was because of such a time, it seemed like a long time, enough to kill the tiredness in his heart.

So let's go!

It took him two years to get out of the prairie.

It's like returning from another world and stepping into this world, and everyone is so strange.

He was already like a beggar, unkempt, ragged, and covered in soot and dirt.

Everyone thought he stinks.

But he felt that it was the fragrance of the earth, the smoke and dust of the world, and the breath of life itself.

He walked to the bazaar, a very small bazaar, no more than two miles long and three feet wide, with decadent, dilapidated and dirty houses on both sides.

Countless people walked through the narrow streets, but there were simple smiles on their faces.

Gu Que could hear everyone, someone's son was admitted to a local apprenticeship, someone had married a virtuous wife, someone's business was profitable...... It seems that everyone has something to be happy about.

Not only are they weak, even poor, but they seem to have more happiness than cultivators.

Gu Que couldn't think deeply about this question, and even, he would think, if he had offspring in the future, should he let him cultivate?

He realized that when he began to think about this question, he already felt that the cultivator was more painful than ordinary people.

Everything is dialectical, and cultivators and ordinary people have their own happiness and suffering, and he understands that there may have been a problem with his mentality.

He felt that he still needed to go.

He fell into contemplation, and the hustle and bustle of the long street began to become quiet.

It's just that the trouble is like a maggot on the tarsal bone, and a roar came, and the tranquility of the entire long street was broken, and everyone screamed in surprise and fled frantically.

Gu Que didn't have to look up, he also knew that on both sides of the long street, dozens of horses were galloping in unison.

On horseback were soldiers, and the faces of the soldiers were proud.

They came arrogantly, the chickens and dogs jumped on the long street, the men exclaimed, the women and children wept, and their faces turned pale with fright.

But there was no way down the long street, only the two sides could be crossed, and the two sides were blocked by cavalry, and they could only rush towards the dilapidated small buildings.

The cavalry led one person in the front, and the red horse under his crotch was as unruly as him.

He looked coldly at the empty and dilapidated streets, watched the civilians flee in shock, and couldn't help but shout sharply: "Run! I'll see where you can go! If you don't pay this month's tax, Lao Tzu will behead you one by one!"

The sound spread throughout the land, and the people became more and more alarmed, and for a moment they fell into a ball, and could not even run the road, and in an instant they were surrounded by cavalry.

The long knife was pulled out, emitting a fierce cold light in the white sunlight.

This kind of battle, of course, is not something that these flat-headed people can resist, and they were so frightened that they hurriedly hugged their heads and squatted on the ground.

The women and children wept louder and louder, but the cavalrymen laughed out loud, their voices as hideous as their expressions.

Gu Que is very conspicuous among this group of civilians.

conspicuous, because he didn't squat, and because he was too dirty.

"Huh, boss, there's a dissatisfied!"

One soldier said lightly, while the other couldn't help but answer: "Look at this, I'm afraid it's a crazy beggar, right?

As soon as he finished speaking, the leading cavalry commander already smiled and said, "Don't say it, there really is one." ”

The cavalry hurriedly looked forward, and immediately saw the figure behind Gu Que in the crowd.

Gu Que didn't have to look back, he already knew what this person looked like.

Dressed in a gray robe with a strap-on on his head, he held a shabby fan, white or gray.

He didn't stand too straight, just because his legs were shaking.

The cavalry commander also pulled out the knife in his hand, put it around his neck casually, and said disdainfully: "That madman is crazy after all, but you kid dare to stand?"

He was indeed a boy, very young, and there was someone behind him pulling him, who seemed to want him to crouch.

That person Gu Que knew that he was the one who boasted that his son was admitted to the school, and this young man should be his son.

But no matter how hard he tried, the young scholar did not squat.

The knight squinted and said, "You kid is not convinced?"

The young scholar swallowed his saliva, his face turned a little pale, and he couldn't help muttering, "No, I... I don't squat!

His voice trembled, he feared, but he did not compromise.

When the chief knight heard this, he was stunned for a long time before he finally burst out laughing.

He smiled, and everyone else laughed.

Laughing wildly, the chief knight suddenly stopped, and said sharply: "Scholar, have you ever heard the saying that articles in troubled times are worthless? Have you ever heard that Xiucai meets a soldier and can't explain it reasonably? Lao Tzu will kill you immediately!"

In the end, his eyes were already full of murderous intent!

The young scholar trembled in fright, and couldn't help but tremble: "You, by which law did you kill someone? Which law did I commit under the law of my Shenzhou?"

The chief knight immediately laughed again, and then said in a cold voice: "Which law? If you don't pay taxes, you are breaking the law!"

The young scholar hurriedly said: "One tax a year, how can there be a reason to collect a monthly tax, you have been collecting it for seven months, how can we have the money to give it to you again." ”

As soon as these words came out, everyone seemed to have some courage and hurriedly spoke out.

The annual tax becomes a monthly tax, and these civilians rely on small business or crops to survive, and of course they can't afford to pay it.

And the chief knight had already said sharply: "Bastard! You dare to talk back? The military master told you that this is the new law two years ago! One of the two leaders of my Dragon Bird Alliance, Que Zun, is missing, and the empress has ordered the world to find someone, and Lao Tzu is in charge of this area." Lao Tzu collects a monthly tax, that's to find Sparrow!"

He pointed his long knife at the people, and said angrily: "What kind of person is Que Zun? If you want to find him, of course, you need funds, Lao Tzu collects taxes from you, and that is to add to your creation! If he finds Que Zun one day, won't you all be glorious ancestors?"

The sound spread throughout the long street, and the long street was silent.

The young scholar muttered: "But we really can't afford it! If we continue like this, we can't afford to eat!"

The chief knight said proudly, "Then you want to disobey the order of the empress?"

The young scholar finally collapsed to the ground, and couldn't help gritting his teeth and said: "The empress is mediocre! It's better to be the god emperor back then, he is the one who really works for our welfare!"

Everyone couldn't help but sigh lowly, and all the sighs reached Gu Qi's ears.

And the knight chief just sneered, and then his eyes suddenly froze, looking at Gu Que, and he couldn't help frowning: "He has squatted down, why don't you squat?"

Gu Que didn't speak, someone was already pulling him beside him, and an old man said in a low voice: "Squat down, the military master is going to kill!"

Gu Que didn't pay attention to it, but suddenly said softly: "The troops don't wear helmets, the armor is not neat, the formation is not even, and the expression is not solemn, is it also the army of Shenzhou?"

As soon as these words came out, the faces of the cavalry became gloomy, and the eyes of the knight chief were even more murderous, and he said coldly: "What did you say?"

Gu Que then said slowly: "If the Shenzhou army does not use a sword, the sword will be stained with blood, even if it cannot be stained with the blood of the enemy, it must be stained with its own blood." This is called feeding the knife, keeping the knife sharp and evil, don't you know?"

He hadn't spoken for more than two years, so much so that his voice was hoarse and unpleasant.

The knight's face was already gloomy to the extreme, and he had slowly lifted his long knife, and said coldly: "Lao Tzu came here in the name of the empress to find the great Bird Zun, not to fight, you dare to take care of these things?"

Gu Que didn't answer his words, but just said: "The current God Emperor of Shenzhou is Xuanyuan Qingling, the daughter of the King of the Four Directions, with my understanding of Qingling, even if she is stupid, she can't do such a thing as collecting monthly taxes." ”

"Bold! Who do you say is stupid?"

The knight's sword pointed forward, and he said sharply: "You actually blaspheme the empress! This is the crime of deceiving the emperor! And what do you know about the empress? Who do you think you are? You are ......."

Speaking of this, he suddenly paused, couldn't help but look back, and glared: "What are you doing with Lao Tzu in a dog's day!"

One of the horsemen behind him whispered, "Chief... Since the empress succeeded to the throne, even the prince and princess did not dare to call her by her name. ”

The knight said in a loud voice: "Can Lao Tzu not know this truth? As the empress of the Protoss, she rules over a territory of 100,000 li, even if it is her parents, she must be called the empress! Even if it is the whole world, who dares to call ......?"

Speaking of this, the anger on his face suddenly froze......

The little soldier swallowed his saliva and said in a trembling voice: "Sparrow, Sparrow... Only the Bird Zun dares to call it that......"

The knight gritted his teeth, and couldn't help but turn his head suddenly, and the long knife slashed forward, and said sharply: "You madman, do you dare to pretend to be a finch venerable? What kind of person is he, how can he look like you?"

At the same time as the words fell, the long knife that was as sharp as clay had already slashed at the top of Gu Que's head.

A sonorous sound spread throughout the long street, and everyone exclaimed, but they didn't see the scene of their heads bursting.

The long knife was extremely bright, but it was still on top of Gu Que's head, and he couldn't even move half a point of his scalp.

The knight's hands began to tremble, his face turned pale, and his pupils constricted with fright.

And Gu Que finally raised his head, and under the dirty hair, the magic patterns on his forehead were hideous and terrifying.

"Ahh

The chief knight screamed in fright, his body suddenly took a few steps backwards, fell off the horse heavily, and hurriedly crawled to his knees, and said in a trembling voice: "See, see the Bird!

"See the Sparrow!"

In an instant, dozens of cavalrymen on both sides suddenly dismounted and quickly knelt down.

The knight kept kowtowing, blood streaming from his forehead, but he never dared to stop.

Anything in the world can be counterfeited, but only these two black stripes can be possessed by the Bird Zun.

The horror in his heart has long been indescribable.

And Gu Que just said softly: "Haven't you been looking for me? I'm right here, why aren't you surprised?"

The knight grew up crying, and couldn't help but hurriedly say: "Que Zun! The villain has eyes and doesn't know Mount Tai, spare your life!"

"Spare your life?"

Gu Que shook his head and said slowly: "Qingling has just come to power, and his experience is still shallow, so there will be military ruffians like you." If she has a bad reputation, how can she spare her life?"

As soon as he finished speaking, he saw two invisible lights suddenly appear in his eyes, and the dozens of cavalrymen kneeling on the ground suddenly trembled, and their souls were directly annihilated by the force.

Gu Que stepped on their corpses, step by step, out of the long street.

Behind him, everyone was already stunned.
