After Lu Lie left, he didn't know that a group of Guo family cavalry rushed into Zhushi Town, which was about to fall into ruins. Most of the townspeople of Zhushi Town have died in the fire, and only a tiny fraction have survived. And these people, the old people and children, were all killed, and the young men and women were put on ropes and driven into the camp of the Guo family's army, where they were used as slaves and prostitutes.

This is what this chaotic world really looks like. In the Central Plains, the princes attacked each other, and this kind of thing has long been commonplace. Only a remote area like Zhushi Town can be peaceful and peaceful until now. And this fragile peace, after twelve years, was finally broken by a defeated army that had suffered defeat in the Central Plains and wandered here.

The marshal of the Guo Jiajun, a burly man in his fifties, wore a purple armor with only two eyes showing above the armor. He walked into the burned ancient town under the protection of many soldiers, his cold eyes coldly surveying everything nearby.

"It's a good place with plenty of food and grass, easy to defend and difficult to attack. It's a pity......" Marshal Guo's eyes showed a hint of regret, "Then the army of the Marquis of Jianning is coming, if I wait to be stationed here, there will be only one way to die." Then you can only burn and rob everything here, and leave no resources for them until the Jianning army arrives. ”

The crisp sound of horses' hooves came from the avenue in Zhushi Town again, and several generals around the Marshal of the Guo Family turned their heads and said with a smile: "It's the boy from afar who has come back from spying on the intelligence again, but I don't know, is the information obtained this time good or bad?" Before they finished speaking, a tall black horse stopped in front of the generals, and a scout with an obscene figure and thorn armor turned over: "Report to the generalissimo, there is an urgent military situation five hundred miles east of Zhushi Town, and the 200,000 people of the Jianning army are coming soon, please prepare as soon as possible." ”

The cold man glanced at Zhu Shizhen, which had been burned almost in the vicinity, and sneered: "What I can't get, I won't let Jianning Hou get." Children, take away all the things that can be taken away from this Zhushi Town, and if you can't take them, you will burn them all, kill them, and rob them all, even if you destroy them all, you must not leave a stitch and a thread to the Jianning Marquis behind you!

Countless soldiers behind the seat shouted: "Wow!"

The marshal of Guo Jiajun swept his feet coldly through the cold gaze of his helmet: "Are there any buildings in this town that have not been set on fire? There is not much time left for us, we must evacuate here as soon as possible." ”

At this time, a withered old man in a black robe walked out from among the soldiers and slowly came to the marshal's eyes: "Tell the general, above this Zhushi Town, there is a huge object, which is obviously placed in front of all the soldiers, but no one lights it and completely obeys your will. ”

"Bold and demonic, how dare you slander us so much in front of the general!" The cold sweat on the foreheads of the commanders around the generalissimo flowed, they knew the character of the general of the Guo family, moody, and violent, if there were really any buildings on this Zhushi town that survived and disobeyed the generalissimo's instructions before entering the town, then there was no doubt that there would be a harsh punishment waiting for them.

It's just that after these commanders reprimanded that strange demon dao, they all looked at each other, and their eyes showed puzzled looks. As soon as they entered Zhushi Town, they rode around Zhushi Town and set fire to all the buildings they saw. What's the matter with this omission in the mouth of the demon road?

The generalissimo stretched out his hand slightly, stopping a few of his subordinates from continuing. He turned his gaze to the mysterious old man hiding in the black robe in front of him: "Don't interject, let him finish his words...... Ever since you joined our military, I've always found you interesting. Tell me, then, what is the incomparably large object that is in front of our eyes, but we have not set it on fire? Do you think that these men of mine are blind?"

As soon as he said this, even if there was a raging fire nearby, everyone felt that the temperature around it had dropped a little. The commanders around the generalissimo also pressed their hands on the handle of their swords, staring at the old way in front of them. When he was no longer able to justify himself, he slashed him with a knife.

Lao Dao smiled slightly, turned around and pointed to the end of the sky. It is a fusion of darkness and light, the intersection of the sky and the earth.

At the end of Zhushi Town, there stands a huge heavenly tree. It rises from the ground, soaring from the abyss to the Nine Heavens, deep into the clouds and unattainable. No one in this town knows where the giant tree that towers into the sky leads, some say it leads to the fairy world, some say it leads to the Yellow Spring, and there are even more ethereal legends that the giant tree is connected to neither the fairy world nor the Yellow Spring, but the starry sky that is teleported to other worlds. As for the truth, no one has ever known, and the only thing that the people in Zhushi Town know is that the people who climbed up have never returned, and there are quite a few corpses that fall down every year.

The foolish people of those days regarded it as a miracle and worshiped it every year.

Even if his face was hidden in the shadows by the black robe, everyone present could feel a cruel and weird smile rising from the corner of Lao Dao's mouth: "Generalissimo." Before you came, on the giant tree in Zhushi Town, there was a legend of immortals, and countless people in Zhushi Town tried to climb the giant tree every year to find the footprints of the immortals, but almost no one has returned so far. Naturally, a small town like Zhushi Town can't organize strong manpower and financial resources to climb this giant tree, but don't forget that the Jianning army that came later has such financial resources, and Jianning Hou is also a person with such courage. Although Lao Dao saw that all the underworld luck in heaven and earth was blessed on the general, but what if it ...... I'm talking about what if, the Marquis of Jianning, who captured this place, also heard about the legend of this giant tree, and became a little interested in this giant tree, and then ......"

"Needless to say," Hearing this, the generalissimo already knew exactly what that strange demon Dao wanted to say, "Seeking immortals?

"Burn! This giant tree leading to heaven and earth must be burned! What this seat can't get, naturally can't be obtained by that dog slave of Jianning Hou!"
