Jiuyang Continent, Southern Fire Domain, Lianyun Mountains, Small Mountain Village.

The night is late, and the bright moonlight sprinkles from the night, sprinkled in the Lianyun Mountains, these sparse villages, making these usually very bleak villages, at this time it has added a lot of mysterious and beautiful colors.

However, all this is short-lived, and once the night passes and the sun shines, these villages will be "exposed" in their original form, showing the true appearance of backwardness, poverty, and no one cares about it.

Lianyun Mountain Range, located at the southernmost point of the Southern Fire Domain, is almost immediately followed by the Chaos Demon Sea, many years ago, it was a chaotic area, if mortals lived here, I am afraid that in a short time, they will die in the hands of demonic beasts, turning into food for them.

Since the Great War between humans and demons, almost all of the Terrans who once lived here have migrated out of here, trying to hide in all corners of the Southern Fire Domain, or escape from the Southern Fire Domain and go to the other eight domains of the Jiuyang Continent.

But with the body of a mortal, if you want to escape from the hands of the demonic beast, how easy is it, the human race that can escape is less than a few tenths, and over time, even if the war between humans and demons comes to an end temporarily, this Lianyun Mountain Range will inevitably become a "dead mountain range" in the end, except for some spirit beasts that have just awakened their spiritual wisdom still exist here, there is almost no trace of life.

It's just that when the war between man and demon ends for a period of time, there will naturally be some newborn calves who are lucky, or who have not witnessed the tragedy of the war between man and demon back then, and are not afraid of heaven and earth, will patronize this place and maintain their livelihood.

This is because, when the war between man and demon swept through the Lianyun Mountains, the aborigines of so many villages were too panicked, and when they fled here with their families, they didn't have time to pack their belongings.

For ordinary people, the Lianyun Mountain Range, no matter when, will be a mass grave in their eyes, an ominous place, but for these scavengers, the Lianyun Mountain Range is indeed an out-and-out gold mine, but as long as they find something of value, it is enough for them to squander it for a while.

It's so cost-effective that it's enough to attract many people to venture here.

Because, how to say that the Lianyun Mountain Range is a mineral-rich zone, long before the start of the Great War between humans and demons, the rarity of the spirit ore in the Lianyun Mountain Range can be said to be famous in the entire Southern Fire Domain, and the spirit stones refined from these spirit ores are the common currency of the entire Jiuyang Continent and even the entire Slaughtering Realm, this is the real gold mine.

If it weren't for the fact that the geographical location was too bad, causing this place to become the first victim of the war between humans and demons, I don't know how long it would be prosperous in the Lianyun Mountain Range.

Lianyun Mountain naturally has cities, but these cities are naturally thorns in the eyes of those demonic beasts, except for being destroyed by them, there will be no other possibility, because of this, only those who have survived here are those extremely remote and undeveloped marginal areas, that is, these few small villages.

The aborigines of these small villages were almost always miners in these mines in the past, and because of this, in addition to some valuable items, the most important ore that can be found in their homes is unrefined ore.

These are hard currencies, if these scavengers really find high-grade ores, the spirit stones that can be refined from them are enough for him to live in the second half of his life, which is not an exaggeration at all.

The odds are small, but it's not like no one has ever found it, and the temptation is too great for the scavengers, even if they risk death, it's enough for them to try.

This night, although peaceful, is also a night of scavengers visiting here......

...............

Lianyun Mountains, small mountain villages.

"Hey, Tiezhu, have you brought all the guys?" Outside the small mountain village, there were three small dark figures, sneakily advancing, they were half-crouched, very cautious, even in the deserted area, they did not speak loudly, but lowered their voices, for fear of being discovered by something, they watched from time to time, and made sure that the front was safe, and then moved forward.

"Report big boss, thing...... Everything, oh, everything. Hearing the question of the first teenager, the younger boy behind him first panicked, and then reached into the backpack that was carrying behind his back, which was several sizes larger than his skinny body, and confirmed it, and then replied to the young man to make sure that all the guys in his mouth were with him.

The young man was having beads of sweat on his head, and the moonlight poured down and reflected on it, shining like a sparkling diamond, and at the same time illuminating their dark faces, which contrasted greatly.

These are three teenagers who are about ten years old, they are all skinny, malnourished, I am afraid that they have not eaten a full meal for many days, they may be victims of the war between humans and demons, or they may have fled here from other realms, in either case, their daily life must be very difficult.

There is no food, no clothing, no fixed place, no relatives, no support, wandering around.

In such a period, there is no one who can help them, they have to support themselves.

"That's good," the young man at the head was obviously relieved, and then suddenly remembered something, and asked again: "By the way, a few days ago, when I was peeing by the river, I found a kamikaze invincible thunderbolt fire stick, which is my sharp weapon against the demonic beasts, no less than the Nine Heavens Invincible Thunderbolt Demon Sword I used before, you must make sure that when we need it, you can safely put it in my hands." ”

"No problem, don't worry, boss, I'll do something, you can rest assured. The slightly smaller boy behind him reached into his backpack again, touched the "Kamikaze Invincible Thunderbolt Fire Stick" in the mouth of the young man before, and then nodded and said.

The so-called "kamikaze invincible thunderbolt fire stick" in the mouth of the big boss and the young man is just an ordinary and rusty half-cut iron rod that the big boss picked up by the river, but since the big boss picked it up, it is like a treasure, and it is regarded as a gift from God, and it is regarded as a symbol of his boss's identity, and it has been kept close to him.

If it weren't for the long distance of the road all the way today, this iron rod was too heavy, so he was reluctant to hand it over to the iron pillar for safekeeping.

Not to mention anything else, although Tie Zhu was the thinnest of the three of them, for some reason, the two of them wrestled their wrists, and no one could compare to Tie Zhu, Tie Zhu was able to lift the two of them easily with one hand, and walked nearly 100 meters without panting, which surprised them.

However, in the eyes of the big boss, he thinks that the iron pillar is God's help to him, and in such a troubled era, which monarch does not have a capable general to help them before he becomes famous? Obviously, in the eyes of the big boss, the iron pillar is such a capable leader.

"Boss, we've been walking for so long, why haven't we reached the village you said? The teenager at the end of the line wiped the sweat from his head and said with a slight complaint.

The boy was slender, but his chronic malnutrition made him look more like a skeleton, and even on a night like this, the sudden appearance could scare people half to death.

The young man's arms were very long, and when he stood upright, his middle finger could almost reach his kneecaps, and he had no name or surname, and the eldest man racked his brains and spent a day in retreat and thinking before he "gave" the name "bamboo pole", which was "given" to him.

Obviously, Zhugan is very dissatisfied with his name, but he has no culture, and on his own, he is afraid that he will not be able to think of a better name, so he can only give up.

"What are you urging, you've been gone for so long, and you still care about this time? I didn't see that over there, we were almost there. The big boss glanced at the bamboo pole impatiently, this was the fifth time that the bamboo pole had asked such a question along the way, and if it weren't for the destination in front of him, the big boss wouldn't want to reply to his question again.

Then, the eldest boss looked forward for a while, turned around, looked at Tiezhu, patted his little brain, pretended to gesture, and said, "Tiezhu, for a while...... You put your backpack down first..... That's right," the big boss waved his hand to the bamboo pole, and the two of them took a lot of effort to remove the backpack behind the iron pillar and put it on the ground.

"Ahem, you know, this kamikaze invincible thunderbolt fire stick was found by me, and I can think of it as a good treasure...... Now, I can lend it to you for a while, just a little while, you take it, go to that little village first, and when it's safe, just stand there and wave to us. The big boss put his arm around the shoulders of the iron pillar and said.

"Haha, what kind of kamikaze invincible thunderbolt fire stick, it's just a half-broken iron rod with rusty roots, and I'm embarrassed to take this domineering name, I really laugh at it. ”

Before the iron pillar could respond, a voice sounded, startling the big boss.

"Damn, who's eavesdropping on us!" The big boss jumped up on the spot, and then ran quickly behind the bamboo pole, half-kneeling and hugging the bamboo pole's thighs, shivering.

"Hahaha......... With this little courage, you dare to come to this mass grave, I advise you, it is better to go back quickly, otherwise, I am afraid that you will have no way at all and leave here alive. ”
