Mr. and Mrs. Chen's house has two yards, one for Zhuang Xia and the other for themselves. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

There is no shortage of houses here, what is lacking is fields that can be cultivated, and food is the most important thing for the people here.

Jumping over the wall with a slight jump, Zhuang Xia felt like a thief doing so, but the danger was still ruled out, so as not to cause harm to the two old men.

Walking through the courtyard and walking to the door, Zhuang Xia found that the door was bolted, and there was a table behind him blocking the door.

It was just getting dark, so why should the two old men be so careful? Could it be that this place made them so insecure?

After hesitating for a while, Zhuang Xia pried open the window and went in quietly.

The furnishings of the living room are simple, and the life of the two old people is very hard, and it is natural that there is no home.

The sound of fingers scratching the soil could still be heard, but it was under the old man's bedroom, and when he approached it, he didn't hear the breathing sound he should have, and there seemed to be no one.

But this is impossible, the door is blocked with a table, how can people be not at home?

Guided by his ears, Zhuang Xia finally found the entrance to a cellar, but this cellar was actually behind the bed in the bedroom, which was unimaginable.

The strange sound continued, and Zhuang Xia quietly sneaked in, wanting to see clearly.

There was a dim oil lamp flickering at the other end of the cellar, which barely illuminated him, and he was so careful that no one noticed that he had come in.

However, at a glance, Zhuang Xia saw what he didn't want to see.

The cellar was three or five meters long and wide, and two old men were squatting in a corner, holding the dirt with their hands and putting it in their mouths.

They peeled the dirt off with their hands, skilfully and easily, and looked closely at the walls of the cellar, which were full of finger scratches.

Such a scene made Zhuang Xia finally understand why they didn't want to eat, and why they saw the ragged young man being killed.

Everything is because they themselves are becoming devourers.

This cellar is full of finger scratches, and it all shows one thing: this cellar is what they ate it from.

Can one person eat dozens of cubic meters of soil? Now it seems that it is possible, and the two old men have not yet completely become devourers, so they can easily devour so much soil.

Thinking of the apocalyptic scene outside the city, Zhuang Xia could imagine that there had been countless devourers wreaking havoc there, eating everything that could be eaten in the entire world, leaving only useless residues and ruins.

Zhuang Xia watched expressionlessly as they kept devouring the soil, not knowing what to say.

At this time, Uncle Chen suddenly said to his wife: "I ate two days ago, and I didn't have any appetite at all, it seems that we are really about to become devourers."

Are we really doing the right thing?"

Granny Chen swallowed a mouthful: "What's right, we are so old, where are we still doing things, isn't it enough to be hungry without a meal in the past two years?"

Becoming devourers, we don't have to go hungry in the future, not to mention, as long as the devourers eat, they can live for at least one or two hundred years without dying.

With so many benefits, why don't we become devourers?"

"But, our son was killed by the Devourer......! Still...... Alas!" Uncle Chen sighed.

"For more than a thousand years, no matter how the bloodline warriors suppressed, the devourers in the city were not endless, why is that?

Because Devourers don't have to go hungry every day, Devourers have great power and don't have to look at other people's faces to act, Devourers still have a long lifespan.

With so many benefits, why are you just brainless?

We don't do devourers, some people do, you see how much food can be produced in those fields?

Hmph, as long as there is a famine, I dare to believe that there will be countless people in this city rushing to become devourers.

Also, where do you think all the Devourers outside the city came from? I heard that a thousand years ago, all the Devourers were dead, but there were so many Devourers, what does it mean that you can't think of it?

I know that you are afraid that the younger generations will no longer have a foothold, but we have nothing, our son is also dead, and we really have nothing when we die, so why not live this life well, regardless of what he looks like after death.

What if the world were to be destroyed? ”

Zhuang Xia was speechless, if he belonged to this world, then he could condemn them because they took up their own survival resources, but he was not.

Besides, living here and sneaking in to check it out, Zhuang Xia was very conflicted with the two old men in front of him.

Although he hates the ruthless devourers outside the city, and can kill them neatly, he can't do it to his landlord.

Leaving silently, the two old men did not notice Zhuang Xia's arrival and departure from beginning to end, but just ate by themselves.

Picking up his belongings slightly, he left the place, silently.

He has long understood that the human heart is the most difficult thing to understand, and human desire is the most difficult disaster to control, but facing it at this moment still makes him feel uncomfortable.

Perhaps, he can do something for the world.

This world is about to be destroyed, and its original will has been struggling to survive, but it cannot control human desires, and human greed has led to the decay of this world until its destruction.

It hated the culprit of all this, the Heaven Swallowing King, and in the generations after the birth of the Heaven Devouring Divine Skill, most of this world was destroyed, and it was caught off guard.

Now, what it didn't expect was that a world tree had quietly descended from this world.

What is the essence of the World Tree, the origin will of the Heaven Devouring World is naturally clear, and when the Great World reaches its peak, its world laws will condense into the World Tree.

This World Tree contains all the laws of this world, and it is enough to suppress the chaos of laws in any big world.

When this big world has passed its peak and begins to decline, there will definitely be a lot of turmoil in the world.

At this time, the World Tree will begin to stabilize the Great World and continue the prosperity of the Great World.

Originally, the normal birth of the World Tree was like this, and the time spent would be the entire peak of the Great World, making it the core of the world.

However, there are always some exceptions, such as the World Tree in its world, if it was tens of thousands of years ago, it would definitely not welcome this World Tree.

But now, even at the cost, it is willing to ask this World Tree to help it stabilize the world.

Stabilizing the world is the job of the World Tree.

Although this World Tree has only been born for a long time, it is very weak, and if it wants to grow, even if it is to provide the world with the law of freedom imprint, it will take hundreds of millions of years.

But this World Tree is now its lifeline, how can it let it go.

As for whether the World Tree would take the opportunity to devour it, it was not worried, even if it was about to be destroyed, it was not something that the nascent World Tree could easily devour.

In this regard, the Devouring World and the World Tree reached an agreement.

Zhuang Xia had just learned about all this, and he was very relieved, because maybe this world could still exist.

Zhuang Xia, who left the city, turned around and went outside the city, maybe everything will change from tomorrow.

And he will also have his own new mission, which is to hunt down all the devourers who destroy the world, at least the giant devourers that threaten the city walls.

Because in the transaction between the World Tree and the Devouring World, it was at least a few years before the world began to stabilize the world.

And in the past few years, if he didn't kill these big guys, the city could be attacked at any time, which was not what he wanted to see.

Similarly, hunting the Devourer is helpful to the World Origin and will be rewarded by the World Origin.

Blood was about to stain his body, but Zhuang Xia was fearless.
