Text: A Trip to the Continent_Chapter 11
Shortly after the battle, there was blood all over the place, mixed with the mud after the ice and snow melted, and the whole land had a strange dark red.
It was a decisive battle between two small families, where the victorious side defeated the losing side completely, and the other family, which had lost all its forces, was wiped out.
The name of the city has not changed, but the owner of the city has often changed.
Such a battle affected not only the cultivator family, but also many more ordinary people.
It can be seen that this area was supposed to be cultivated by ordinary people, but it was completely destroyed in this war.
There was a remnant village nearby, but there was no one there.
Walking in such a wasteland, Yan Danchen remembered his past again for some reason, and unconsciously became silent.
Xiaolong became small and shrunk into Yan Danchen's arms, as if he was also infected by Yan Danchen's emotions. The other two were also silent, Jian Gong didn't know what they were thinking, and Xing Zhan and Yan Danchen thought, probably wouldn't think about anything, right?
The three of them were already located in the war-torn area in the north, coming out of the Boundless Sect, the nearest teleportation place, passing through the teleportation array, to the panicked area in the north, and then heading all the way to the north, directly to the war zone.
In the chaos of war, the only victims are ordinary people.
Don't wonder why there are ordinary people, even if ten thousand years have passed, the cultivation secret book is still a rare thing, even here, the situation is still the same.
There are more strong people in the continent, and there will be more chaos accordingly, and there are also many fugitive cultivators and exiled cultivators hiding in the mountains and forests, so most of the ordinary people gather near the city where the cultivators are the masters, and in this way, once a battle breaks out, there will be immeasurable casualties.
But even so, ordinary people would still choose to settle near the cultivator city.
According to the information obtained earlier, Jian Gong decided to go to a castle called Snow Old Town, which is an old city, and there is a family with Snow as the surname, but now this family is a thing of the past.
Snow Old Town is located at the southern tip of the continent, the climate here is warm, and there is rarely snow in a year, only on the coldest days there will be snowflakes, and not too much, only a thin layer of snow on the ground.
At this time, it was the middle of winter, and the group were all cultivators, so they naturally didn't care about this level of temperature changes, and they were often easy to ignore these changes, until Yan Danchen noticed that the mud on the ground was mixed with ice particles, and some dead trees still had residual snow on them, and then he realized that it was already winter.
Yan Danchen couldn't help but sigh, the evergreen trees in the sect, coupled with the influence of the mountain protection array, it is easy for people to ignore climate change, and along the way, it is a war zone from the beginning of contact with the outside world, even if there are traces of snow, it will quickly disappear in the battle.
It's been a few days since the battle in the old snow town, so although the traces of winter have almost been wiped out by the great battle, the cold has changed the surroundings a little.
In front of you is the Snow Old Town, and you can already see the black walls of the Snow Old Town standing on the vast field with remnants of snow.
It can be seen that after the war, there was still a snowfall here, although it was not large, but it still covered up the traces of the war as much as possible.
There are no corpses to be seen outside the city, it should be the victorious side who disposed of all the corpses, of course, it is also possible that the common people acted spontaneously, and the outside of the city gate is clean anyway.
The gates of the city were wide open, and there were no soldiers to defend the city.
An abandoned city.
The old city of Snow is too small and too old for its own war value, so the people who defeated it do not bother to run the city at all, and the purpose of the attack is more to revenge.
Although, most likely, the contradiction between these two forces is just a trivial matter.
Of course, there is also the possibility that the forces attacking the city are threatened by other forces and have to abandon the city.
And this scenario is more likely.
Because, from the previous information, it was concluded that many families would be defeated by other forces before they could take over the city before they could conquer another family.
This is also one of the doubts of this war, and it seems as if someone behind the scenes deliberately did it.
Yan Danchen thought about it for a long time, and finally came to the conclusion that someone behind the scenes used this way to eliminate the forces on this land, and when the big forces were exhausted, the people behind the scenes would easily take over this area.
If the other party had this plan, Yan Danchen speculated that before all forces were completely wiped out, those cities that seemed to be abandoned were actually still being maintained by someone in secret.
One of the purposes of their trip was to spy on them.
There are not many people left in the Snow Old City, the Snow Family was destroyed, the forces that broke the city abandoned the city, and most of the remaining cultivators were scattered cultivators, and this only accounted for one-tenth of the existing population of the Snow Old City, and the remaining ninety percent were the surviving people, they did not have the strength of cultivators, even if such a thing happened, they could only pray that the tragedy would not happen to them, and then continue to survive in this city.
Although it was post-war period, the lives of the common people continued, so despite the gloomy business, all the shops on the street were still open, and only the people themselves knew what they would gain.
There are very few people on the street, and although the door of the restaurant is open, there is no one inside, so it is impossible to find out the news in the restaurant, and everyone here has a look on their faces, and there is no one to talk to.
They are all ordinary people who are frightened by the group.
Only those cultivators who think that their cultivation is okay can hang around in this Cheng Lei, the old family has been destroyed, the new family has not yet appeared, this city is also a city of cultivators, now is the time when the dragons have no leader, these scattered cultivators are nothing more than thinking about whether they can take this opportunity to form a gang, and then carve up this abandoned city.
Because they had almost the same purpose, the cultivators on the street all looked at each other with obvious hostility, wanting to come and get a piece of the pie.
At this time, the street in front of them suddenly became chaotic, and a large number of ordinary people ran towards Yan Danchen and the others.
Something happened!
Yan Danchen and Jian Gong glanced at each other, nodded, and then ran towards the place where the chaos had occurred.
Xing Zhan followed closely without saying a word, in his opinion, the two people in front of him, one is the person in charge of the task, and the other is stronger than himself, as long as he follows, there is nothing else.
A little closer, Yan Danchen's spiritual power swept slightly, and he immediately found that after the corner of the road in front of him, there was another cultivator fighting.
Even though they are two cultivators in the early stage of Heavenless, they can still be regarded as cultivators.
There were several cultivators around these two early stage cultivators, but most of them were early stage cultivators.
Seeing Yan Danchen and the three of them coming, the onlookers just turned their heads to look, and then turned their heads to watch the two cultivators fight.
The cultivation of the three of them was not something that these people could see through, so they didn't attract anyone's attention.
There were people talking in whispers around him, and Yan Danchen quickly understood why these people were arguing.
Probably because these people's cultivation is the bottom series, so they all know that they are cannon fodder characters, they don't have any ideas about the Snow Old City, and it is a little unrealistic to leave, there is no future, they simply have to get by, and they don't care about their own lives, so when other high-level cultivators are trying to take the city, these low-end cultivators only want to stand in line, and then wait for the order from above, and when they are waiting for the order to send themselves to death, these cultivators who have given up begin to contact the ordinary people. And now, the reason for the fight between the two is a young girl who sold herself for her grandfather's funeral.
Obviously, these two guys who are eating and waiting for death don't have any good intentions, and it's just because they have moved their minds at the same time that there is a conflict.
Wait, girl?
Yan Danchen's heart suddenly moved, he just seemed to be ······ Didn't notice a girl at all?
Looking around again, Yan Danchen noticed that by the wall, a girl who thought she was about sixteen or seventeen years old was kneeling on the ground, her little face was pale, and she was trembling as she watched people from the world who did not belong to her because of her own fight.
Yan Danchen's eyes were instantly left with this one figure.
The black-brown dress was very wide, covered with patches and white-washed marks, and the pale little face was delicate and unusually without a trace of flaws. A pair of eyes are like a deep night, crystal clear, purer than the purest jade, long black hair draped behind the back to the waist, fluttering slightly in the cold winter wind, a pair of bare feet frozen red in the cold winter day.
Poor, humble, simple and simple.
In those eyes, Yan Danchen saw the grief of losing his loved ones, the fear of the unknown in the future, and ······ Endless loneliness.
It was a kind of helplessness and despair abandoned by the whole world. It is not the world of human beings, but the entire heaven and earth, the entire great realm under the way of heaven.
It's like a princess abandoned by the world.
Because she was abandoned by the world, no one would notice her until she took the initiative to appear in front of people's eyes.
, the loneliness and despair of being abandoned by the world, just like the lonely and fearful child who was afraid of the world when he was a child, before Yan Lao spoke to him.
For some reason, that feeling of empathy instantly hit the deepest part of Yan Danchen's heart.
However, that's not all.
This girl is a dark body.
There are no other attributes, only dark attributes, and even the body can only contain the purest dark power, and there is not a trace of impurity.
