Chapter 0097. Consume them
Chen Xuan is deeply aware that although in this world, the status of people is so disparity.
But as far as the three of them are concerned, he can always see a lot of valuable qualities from Chen Fangguo and Chen Zhong.
Take this Chen Zhong, who doesn't speak much, for example, he actually saw through his father Chen Ba, for the safety of the entire family, he would never allow them to rush to Wangjia Village to die.
Even Chen Xuan didn't realize this before this, so Chen Xuan felt a little guilty, and that's why.
"Brother Chen, now it's all up to us, we have to find a way to deal with them ourselves. Chen Jiageng glanced fiercely at the Yuwen Li'er not far away and said.
"Yes, we have to do it on our own. In that case, let's wait and see. By the way, I'm going to tell you one thing, don't be too discouraged. Because of the two Ji Ruohua sisters, they have already arrived halfway, and after a while, they will rush to Wangjia Village again......"
"What about Chen Jiao?!" Chen Fangguo asked.
Chen Xuan was silent and did not answer.
Because just now the Condor told him that Chen Jiao stayed in Yimen Village to be with his father Chen Ba for other reasons.
"Young master, why didn't Chen Jiao come?! I think it's this girl who is making trouble, otherwise, our eldest patriarch must have brought the whole village with him. Chen Fangguo said with some dissatisfaction.
Chen Xuan shook his head and said to him, "Brother Chen Fangguo, please allow me to call you a brother here, not a little brother. I hope you don't judge others casually in the future, even if you have some grievances before that. That's right, this Chen Jiao, she still hates me because of her father's death, and I don't care what reason she didn't come. But there is always one thing we can know, that is, if she doesn't come, there must be a reason why she doesn't come, and everyone should not have any complaints. ”
"In this way, Brother Chen must be confident. Tan Kah Kee said.
"I'm not too sure. But have you ever figured out if there is any other provenance for this place besides here?!"
"Judging from our current analysis, this place should be the only source, that is, the entrance and exit of the barrier......" Tan Kah Kee said.
"If that's the case, then it's easy to do. ”
Chen Xuan sighed with relief, then pointed at that Yuwen Li'er and nodded thoughtfully.
"What do you mean?!"
"Now that no one is able to get out, then this is really an opportunity for us. I mean, it's a real opportunity for both sides of the world. ”
"What kind of opportunity is it?!"
"Are you hungry?!" Chen Xuan asked suddenly.
"Young Master, why did you suddenly ask this question?! My stomach has been hungry for a long time, and now my stomach is growling with hunger......" Chen Zhong was very puzzled and asked.
"That's easy, that's easy......"
"No, young master, is it only hungry to be a little brother with you?!If we starve to death and you become the commander of the light pole, I see how you will go out then?!"
Chen Xuan smirked: "This is how we deal with them......"
"What are you talking about?" I still don't understand what you mean...... Chen Zhong said.
"Hey, the young master is really a smart person, are you really so stupid?!" Chen Fangguo shook it hard, and Chen Zhong said.
"Could it be that the young master wants to consume it with them?!" Chen Zhong suddenly realized.
"Haha, that's what I meant. If you look at the situation in this cave, you must not be able to cook on the fire, and now that everyone can't get out, they will consume each other. If you think about it, it's going to be in there, and when the time comes, you're going to have to eat something, but look at them...... Don't look at him so proud, I want to see how long he can be proud......" Chen Xuan pointed at Yuwen Li'er and said.
"Young Master, I'm really right for you, the dry food we bring with us now is at least enough for us to eat for ten days and a half. There is no water to drink, which is probably a bit troublesome. Chen Fangguo said with a smile.
"You mean water, there's clean cave spring water everywhere...... You listen to the ticking in the distance, you just have to open your mouth and drink, you idiot. Chen Zhong also hurriedly replied to him at the right time.
"Well, you've won this time, idiot. ”
Chen Jiageng suddenly seemed to remember something, and asked Chen Xuandao: "Brother Chen, since they have made this place an underground fortification, and by the way, they have destroyed the royal dragon vein, I think they should have a place to make a fire and cook." ”
Chen Xuan shook his head and said, "Brother Chen, it seems that you still don't understand the situation. You can't cook on a fire under this ground, you can only go to the ground. If you cook under this fire, the ventilation here is definitely not so good, and over time, the smoke in it will probably smoke people to death. ”
But they said that there was a lot of food and grass in it, which was enough for them to hold out for three and a half years. Chen Jiageng was still not at ease and said.
"I'm sure they have enough food and grass, but they still need to be cooked and edible...... I don't believe they can make it all at once and eat it, and they have to make a fire to cook...... So they were dead. ”
At this point, Chen Xuan has already made it very clear that Yuwen Li'er and they will stay here for a while and a half, and they will continue to consume, and it will not be Chen Xuan and them who will fall in the end.
"But when we run out of food, we don't have anything to cook on the fire. Chen Zhong was still a little uneasy and said.
Chen Xuan patted his chest and said to him: "Don't worry, we have a god here, are you still afraid of starvation?!"
Chen Zhong suddenly realized, stretched out his thumb to Chen Xuan, and said, "High...... High...... It's really high. I didn't expect our young master to mature so quickly, this idea is really wonderful. Didn't that kid try to kill us, but we want to see who fell first......"
Chen Xuan's speculation is indeed very reasonable, because Yuwen Li'er is sitting on the Taishi chair at this moment, sipping tea leisurely, and he actually understands very well in his heart that if his guards have not repaired the doorway, then they will have to dry up.
Most of the grain and grass stored here are some rice and sorghum, and his subordinates originally suggested that some melons and fruits should be stored, but he still resolutely disagreed, because if these melons and fruits were stored here, they could only cheapen the rats and would become their meal.
In this case, if you want to do it, it is better to talk to Chen Xuan, maybe the two of them will talk about it between bargaining.
In the comparison between life and death, a normal person should know which side to choose.
So, after he finished drinking the pot of tea, he pretended to be casual and slowly came to the barrier.
He looked this enchantment up and down, and couldn't help but be secretly surprised in his heart, thinking that this Chen Xuan was on par with himself in terms of cultivation.
However, he is much stronger than himself in a certain aspect, because the construction and maintenance of this kind of enchantment requires a certain amount of skill to bless it.
As the power weakens, the power of the enchantment will become weaker and weaker, until it disappears.
"Young Master Yuwen, what are you doing?!"
"I'd like to talk to you about ......"
"What are you talking about?!"
"You don't have to make such a fuss, everyone is also a friend, do you treat your friends like this?!"
"What are you talking about? Aren't you kidding, who do you say is your friend? is me? is it you or he?!"
Chen Xuan turned around exaggeratedly and asked everyone around him.
But everyone around him shook their heads, saying that there was no such friend as him.
This made Yuwen Li'er so angry that he suddenly changed his face, pointed at Chen Xuan's nose and scolded: "You kid, don't sit in a sedan chair, you don't know how to lift." I'm here to give you face, okay......"
"I'm also giving you face, you came here to say that you are friends with me. How can I be friends with someone like you, isn't this degrading my own personality?!" Chen Xuan laughed.
At this time, Yuwen Li'er ran over with the guards and exchanged words with him for a while, only to see Yuwen Li'er's face becoming more and more ugly.
Seeing this, Chen Xuan immediately understood in his heart.
He pretended to be surprised and asked, "Is your door repaired, if not, you can get out, I don't want to see you......"
"What are you talking about?Who are you telling to get out, you tell me again?!" Yuwen Li'er was completely annoyed by him, and pointed at Chen Xuan's nose and scolded.
"I mean you...... Horse...... Above...... To give...... I...... Get lost...... Open!" Chen Xuan scolded word by word.
"Okay, you have a kind, if you kid has the ability, get out of Lao Tzu immediately......"
The enchantment in front of him is like an insurmountable wall to Yuwen Li'er.
Although the enchantment is sometimes not able to resist the invasion of demonic beasts, for the same kind, as long as there is enough blessing power, it can also keep the other party out.
Therefore, with this enchantment, Yuwen Li'er had no way to break into it at all, and he could only howl a few words outside.
Seeing this, Chen Xuan decided to give him a little color to see, and by the way, he teased and teased the kid in front of him who didn't know the height of the sky, so he called Chen Jiageng and others to the front, and then whispered a few words, only to see Chen Jiageng and them smiling when they heard it.
Then, Chen Xuan stepped out and said to Yuwen Li'er: "Young Master Yuwen, do you want to give me a few more exercises?!"
Yuwen Li'er was shocked, thinking that this kid was really an unbeatable Cheng Biting Jin.
Do you want to fight with yourself again?!
The words just now were only said in a fit of anger.
If you really fight with him, it will be tantamount to wasting your strength in vain.
When the ammunition is almost exhausted, how can it be so easy to consume physical strength with him.
"I just want to get down to business with you......"
"Is that right? Master Yuwen actually has something to discuss with me?! Tell me about it, but it doesn't hurt to listen......
"I ......"
"What's wrong with you?!Is it that your guards haven't been repaired yet?!"
"Alas, they're really stupid, do you have someone over there to help me fix it......"
Hearing him say this, Chen Xuan immediately agreed: "That's good, that's good...... I'm going to call someone, you wait a minute. ”
"Young Master, did you call me?!" Chen Fangguo ran over and asked.
"When did I call you?!, am I called Chen Zhong, okay......" Chen Xuan's face sank and he said.
"Oh, I'm sorry, I made a mistake, it turned out to be Chen Zhong. ”
Chen Fangguo smiled a little awkwardly, and then ran back.
When Chen Zhong came over, he asked, "Young Master, are you calling me?!"
Chen Xuan nodded and said, "Yes, they are useful to you here." ”
Chen Zhong hurriedly nodded yes.
It turned out that just now, Chen Xuan had already discussed with Chen Fangguo and them what everyone's drama was, but this Chen Fangguo actually made a mistake just now, so Chen Xuan was a little angry.
As for what the specific drama is, there will be a good show to watch in a while.
"Is that him?!"
"It's him, he's our Yimen Chen's first-class handlebar style, and he can usually fix something. Chen Xuan said with some meaning.
"Okay, come with me......"
Yuwen Li'er pointed at Chen Zhong, turned around and was about to take him away, but was stopped by Chen Xuan.
He turned around in surprise and asked, "What else is going on with you?!"
Chen Xuan pointed to the stone gate and said, "You guys are going in the opposite direction, it's over there......"
"On which side?!"
"Didn't you see that stone door?!"
Chen Xuan felt very strange, thinking that this kid wouldn't be trying to play any tricks.
Yuwen Li'er smiled and said, "You don't know much about our organs here, and the place that controls the stone gate is not there. ”
Chen Xuan suddenly realized, no wonder they looked here dryly for a long time, but no one came to repair the door, it turned out that the organ controlling the stone gate was not in this place.
"Well, you didn't go, but I'm going to tell you boy, if anything goes wrong with my people, I'm going to spare you. ”
"You are really bad enough to speak, everyone is now in the same boat, do you think I killed him, what good will it do me?!" Yuwen Li'er said dissatisfied.
"Then you can know, if you are not afraid of 10,000, you are afraid of ......"
After Chen Xuan gave Chen Zhong a look, Chen Zhong followed Yuwen Li'er away.
In the blink of an eye, they had turned into an aisle and were no longer seen.
Chen Xuan thought to himself, these thousand people, digging such a large space here, coupled with the original pattern of the cave, is really a wonderful underground world.
He had heard his father Chen Ba talk about it before, saying that the residents of some places in the Great Chu Empire lived underground for many years, and there were basically no houses on the ground, and there were terraced fields all over the mountains.
In addition, there are some places that live on the Loess Plateau, they also live underground, but they dig caves, and they live in this kind of place, which is also warm in winter and cool in summer, and it is very comfortable.
"The young master was very embarrassed just now, and almost messed up your script. Chen Fangguo walked back at this time and said to Chen Xuan embarrassedly.
"I really sweated for you just now, and your kid's life was almost gone. You know what? If you're like this in the future, then I won't be able to care so much. Chen Xuan said a little unhappily.
"Got it, young master, let's go back......"
"Where are you going?!"
Chen Fangguo pointed to the enchantment and said to Chen Xuan: "Go there, let's close our eyes and recuperate...... By the way, didn't you teach me Bigu?!"
Chen Xuan smiled and said, "I'm afraid you won't be able to learn this, you haven't reached that level yet." If I insist on teaching you now, you'll starve you to death...... Do you want to learn?!"
"If that's the case, then I'm not going to learn it yet...... When I get to Xunyang City in the future, I'll find another opportunity to learn from you......"
"It's pretty much the same, it looks like I haven't hurt you in vain......"
"There is a young master to guide me along the way, and I should do whatever I do. I personally have a bold conjecture, I don't know if it's right?!" Chen Fangguo said with a hippie smile.
Seeing this, Chen Xuan knew that he didn't have anything good to say about you, so he pretended to be unintentional and said, "Say it next time, don't spit out ivory from your dog's mouth." ”
"Hehe, did you hear what Brother Chen said just now?!"
"Of course I heard it, it's the matter of Xunyang City?!"
"No, I mean Xunyang Academy and Xunyang Martial Arts Academy......"
"Are you saying that Xunyang Academy is just a Yihong Academy?!"
"I didn't say it, it was Brother Chen who said it......" Chen Fangguo said with a smile.
"Looks like you're really ...... kid It's no wonder that your brother will scold you for being an out-and-out pervert. You kid give me an honest explanation, apart from that incident, have you done anything else out of the ordinary in Yimen Chen?!"
"Young master, don't mention that incident, it's simply a stain on my life. In the old man's terms, what is this called......"
"I'll tell you in the vernacular, you call stealing chickens and not losing a handful of rice, hahaha......"
The two men laughed at each other, and the laughter shook the entire cavern.
After laughing, the two of them returned to the enchantment, sat cross-legged on the ground, began to meditate, and then waited for the good news, waiting for that Chen Zhong to come over to report the good news......
It turned out that when Yimen Chen had not been forcibly dismantled, for hundreds of years, thousands of people had gathered in one place, like a virtual utopian society.
Men, women, and children have their own collective dormitories, not ordinary villages like usual, where each finds his own mother and goes back to his own home.
That is to say, in Yimen Chen, people's daily life is very strict, and the patriarch Chen Ba designates family members in various places according to the division of labor of each person.
A very interesting phenomenon is that when men and women reach the age of marriage, although they do not have the custom of free love, they can know each other's appearance in advance, and if they are not satisfied with each other's appearance, the family can actually help them choose.
This so-called custom was much more advanced and more humane than the rest of the Great Chu Empire at that time.
After the daughter-in-law marries and enters the door, they are allowed to live together until they have their first child, and once they give birth to a child, after the lactation period, the child is concentrated in the nursery hall.
So before the separation, Yimen Chen's children actually didn't know who their biological mother was before they were five years old, which is a very interesting phenomenon.
Moreover, according to the family rules of Yimen Chen, in addition to the traditional rules and regulations, the family rules also stipulate that there are some special provisions for men and women, and if they are violated, they may be punished by the family rules.
For people like Chen Fangguo, when he peeped at the newlyweds, it was obvious that he seriously violated the family rules.
It's just that his parents' popularity in the family is still very good, and everyone didn't really punish him, but just scolded him severely, and this kid has behaved until now.
Now, Chen Xuan's words were just reminding him, not beating him.
Because the relationship between the two people, after this period of running-in, has gone beyond the ordinary relationship between master and servant.
Besides, he is ready to leave Chen Xuan and follow Chen Jiageng to study in Xunyang Academy, and there will not be too much time to meet in the future.
Besides, Chen Zhong followed Yuwen Li'er and walked forward for a while, and Chen Zhong was surprised to find that this cave looked very long, as his master Chen Xuan had speculated.
He made a brief visual inspection, and the distance he had just traveled should be a mile or two, but at the moment there seemed to be no end in sight.
"Young Master Yuwen, how far is it? I'm a little tired from walking......"
In fact, Chen Zhong himself is a little tired, it is obvious that he is lying, such a little distance, it actually makes a big man feel tired, wouldn't this make people laugh off their big teeth.
He is actually not tired, but he feels more and more unsteady, because now he is getting farther and farther away from Chen Xuan and them, and following this great villain of the Great Chu Empire, no matter who he is, he feels unsteady.
"Well, it's coming soon, you're waiting. ”
Yuwen Li'er casually perfunctory a word or two, and continued to walk forward.
After he took two steps, he turned around and looked at Chen Zhong, a little hesitant, and urged a little impatiently: "Let me go faster, otherwise...... I'm not kind to you......"
Originally, he wanted to say something like that, or I would kill you, but the words were held in his mouth, and he swallowed them back.
Because there is indeed a shortage of manpower at the moment, his own guards just now told him that only one of the remaining eight villagers is now left, and the rest are all dead.
As for the specific cause of death, Yuwen Li'er himself is actually clear, because the mechanism that controls the entire cave is indeed too complicated and too large.
He even regretted that he shouldn't have designed such a huge mechanism in the first place to try to change the dragon veins of the royal family.
But his family's strong ambition still drove him to do so.
Because only by doing this can they completely change the direction of the dragon veins of the royal family, so that this royal family, which they hate to the core, will be finished soon......
To this end, they have spent a huge amount of money and invited the top designers in the entire Tianwu Continent to help them design such a project.
Before Chen Xuan and the others discovered this strange village, their project had gradually entered the final stage, that is, they had been working here for more than half a year.
The nearly 1,000 people in Wangjia Village on the ground were all forcibly driven here to work.
Of course, the old, weak, sick and disabled people in Wangjia Village were not idle, but concentrated in another place, that is, somewhere on the ground to specialize in cooking......
This is also the reason why he Yuwen Li'er feels very uncomfortable, because if this mechanism is really not repaired, then they can only starve here in vain and wait for death.
His original wishful thinking was that when the project was over, he would first kill the designer, and then kill all the remaining villagers.
But when he finished all this, he happened to be broken in by Chen Xuan and the others, disrupting the situation.
What's even more unfortunate is that when he was dueling with Chen Xuan on the post road, Chen Xuan's heavy kick was really earth-shattering, and it actually caused a small earthquake, which shook the mechanism here out of place.
After receiving the report from his subordinates, he had no choice but to go to Wangjia Village to check it himself, and then, in a fit of rage, almost all the remaining villagers were killed, leaving only eight sturdy villagers so that they could carry the corpses.
Those poor villagers, after being killed by him, were then moved by these eight sturdy villagers to a mass grave next to the entrance of the village, and before they were completely buried, they ushered in Chen Xuan and them.
Then Chen Xuan and the others broke into the cave, and they completely destroyed the original mechanism.
At this time, the designer had already been killed by them, and naturally he had no way to repair it himself, so he had to force the guards to do this kind of thing.
Those guards, who were usually accustomed to being pretending to be tigers, knew how to do such rough and heavy work, so they had to drive the eight remaining poor villagers.
Naturally, these villagers did not escape death, and after seeing their own accomplices jump down one by one, they never came out again......
I know that as long as I go in, there must be no return.
Therefore, after receiving a report from the guards, Yuwen Li'er had no choice but to find Chen Xuan, hoping that his subordinates would find a way......
Of course, if his subordinates are not effective, they will only get the same fate as those strong villagers.
Yuwen Li'er and Chen Zhong walked about half a mile ahead, and finally saw a small hole.
There was a guard guarding the entrance of the cave, the guard was holding a spear, his face was like a vegetable, and he was weak to guard there, as soon as he saw his master coming over, he hurriedly beat his spirit, and said to Yuwen Li'er: "Master Yuwen, you are here, ......."
"Well, what about people?!" Yuwen Li'er's face sank and he asked.
The guard was stunned for a moment, then looked at Chen Zhong behind him, and quickly understood what was going on, and said to Yuwen Li'er respectfully: "Report to Master Yuwen, everyone has been carried away." ”
"Well, what about people?!" Yuwen Li'er's face sank and he asked.
The guard was stunned for a moment, then looked at Chen Zhong behind him, and quickly understood what was going on, and said to Yuwen Li'er respectfully: "Report to Master Yuwen, everyone has been carried away." ”
"How long have you been gone?"
"Report to Master Yuwen, I just left!"
"Smack!"
As soon as the guard finished speaking, he was slapped firmly in the face, and immediately grabbed the gun, covered his hot face, and looked at Yuwen Li'er with fear, and his whole body began to tremble, as if he was a dog who had done something wrong.
"Come in with me!" Yuwen Li'er turned around and said to Chen Zhong with a threatening expression.
