Chapter 0002: The Return (I)
After calming Wu Meng's emotions, Xu Sheng began to prepare his luggage.
The first clue is the city of Anhuo, which is a city on the southern edge of the Shengyuan Kingdom. But at least within a radius of three hundred miles, it is a small hub.
According to the number of the Shengyuan Kingdom, this is a fourth-level town.
Judging from the map left in the house, this world called Shengyuan Kingdom is more than a little bit larger than Shengxian Continent.
But here...... It seems that it is really inferior to Shengxian State.
Because in the past few years, the Shengyuan Kingdom has become more and more barren.
Wu Meng was unable to cultivate since she was born, so the man brought Wu Meng out, wanting to follow the spring in the desert to stimulate her spiritual root.
Such a choice is not unexpected, because if you really can't cultivate, it will be ruined for a lifetime. In this country, cultivation is also hierarchical, and if they are not eligible for a higher level, many people choose to move to more remote places.
Xu Sheng had seen a word in the book.
The Great Escape.
The desolation is the desolation of true anger.
The country seems to have gone through many times of famine, with a dead silence from the capital to the border.
It is said that in the capital, everyone is born with a spiritual root, and there is no obstacle to cultivation.
But in a border town like Anhuo City, there are many ordinary workers who have no skills.
The most recent exodus took place more than 20 years ago and has been intensifying recently.
Under the wasteland, you can only continue to exercise the skills of survival.
"Dad will protect you, you take this well, what you found from the balls is a talisman." Xu Sheng was frying the huge snake egg, and handed a smooth stone to Wu Meng with his backhand.
It was taken out of the snake egg and it was fake, and on this stone, it carried a little of his soul power.
Wu Meng looked at the stone and thought for a while......
"Daddy, why is there a stone in that snake's ball? Isn't it in good health either? ”
“…… Why do you use 'also'? ”
Xu Sheng rolled his eyes, and started to make all the parts of the snake that could be eaten into jerky, collected the scales on the snake's back, put them into a big bag, and set off for Anhuo City.
Looking at Wu Meng, who was bouncing around him, Xu Sheng couldn't help but feel a little emotional.
If he hadn't been framed, after breaking the barrier for Shengxian Prefecture, he would have given birth to a beautiful daughter with his wife.
Could it be that behind this barrier, this is the world? Is it hell that you have worked so hard to open?
If so, then it was up to him to build another Saint Immortal State.
Yongqing, who will only fight for power and profit, does not seem worthy of being the master of this world.
Ann Fire City.
The exterior of the castle is completely covered with metal, and under the walls, you can see the green of the stars.
But there is an invisible wall that prevents this piece of green from spreading farther.
There must be an energy core in this, and the true qi drives these metals, so there is such a city.
The buildings inside were completely different from those in Shengxian Prefecture, with smooth walls and beautiful domes, carved with mysterious patterns, which looked like some kind of formation in Xu Sheng's memory.
It's just a pity that the surface of these buildings is mottled and looks like they haven't been maintained for many years.
Walking into a tavern, the man once went to a tavern, and happened to bump into the owner putting a barrel of wine in the center of the tavern, lit the cigarette in his hand, and put one hand on the barrel.
"The last barrel of wine today, gone. 7 silver coins, whoever gives the money first, takes it first. ”
No one paid attention to Xu Sheng and the little girl shrunk under his coat, they all stared at the barrel of wine in the boss's hand, and the tavern was suddenly silent.
"Six silver coins." After a long time, the silence was broken by a strong man, the scars on his face tearing the corners of his mouth, and the black gloves and silver coins stained with blood slapped on the barrel.
"No credit." The boss is also a ruthless character, with his fingers caressing the rim of the barrel, which also has scarlet blood on it.
His eyes fell on the knife in the strong man's hand.
"The knife is not changed." The strong man hesitated for a moment, and took out a thin piece of metal from his heart: "This is for you, it is mixed with Xuanjing." ”
The boss whistled, put away the metal pieces and silver coins, patted the barrel, and patted the strong man, and soon disappeared into the tavern.
The strong man licked his chapped lips, opened the barrel, scooped out a bowl, and sent it down his throat.
"Brother, don't sell those who kill, sell life-saving things?" Seeing that he had finished drinking, one of them tapped the table.
He sat in the most prominent position, surrounded by several brothers.
"Huh." The strong man wiped the corners of his mouth: "The only thing that saves your life is the knife." After drinking today, I will talk about it tomorrow. ”
"You know the rules of the tavern." The man said, "The boss sells it to you, it's yours, not the boss's." ”
"I understand." The strong man looked at the barrel of wine in front of him, and his throat and eyes lit up: "But I have this money left, I have no money." The boss is willing to sell it, so you can allow me to drink another bowl. ”
These words became more and more wrong, Xu Sheng frowned, and pulled Wu Meng behind him.
Everyone's eyes were fixed on the barrel, as if smiling, and the weapon was taken out of his pocket, placed it in the palm of his hand, and slapped it.
This look is like looking at a pig waiting to be slaughtered.
It's a pity that before he could take a sip of the second bowl he scooped, the knife flashed, and a person with a knife rushed at the door.
There was a slight reaction of true qi on this knife!
The strong man seemed to have been prepared, took a step back with the bowl, lowered his body, poured the wine, half of it was in his throat, his waist exerted force, the whole person bounced up like a spring, and the wine in his mouth squirted out.
The right-handed saber swung out of his wrist and hit the middle of the opponent's blade with unmistakable precision, the latter's wrist was slightly loose, and the big man sent it forward, and the blade cut through his wrist, cutting all the way down the skin to the creaky nest.
Hiss......
If he were given a little more time, the skin would be peeled off completely.
This is placed in the Holy Immortal State, but it is regarded as a heresy, who is a serious person with a knife?
However, there is one thing to say, the cold weapons here are quite skillful, and it seems that if it weren't for the depletion of true qi, they wouldn't have studied here.
In the blink of an eye, Dahan withdrew his knife, looked at the splattered blood, and reached out to protect his wine barrel.
Screams resounded through the tavern, and as he watched the irreparable injuries, his attackers wept.
"Kill me, kill me......"
"You go to the doctor, you can sew it up, you can't die." The big man reached out and scooped up another bowl of wine.
After a brief encounter, he looked red. Perhaps because of the effect of alcohol, the embarrassment of paying money was swept away.
"No...... Kill me...... I don't ...... at all No money......"
Flutter.
A sharp blade the length of the middle finger pierced the man's neck, and the invisible thread was pulled by the true qi, and the blade was pulled back.
Blood flowed everywhere.
"Dude, it's hard for a boss like you to wash the floor, won't it be solved next time you stab your head?" Out of nowhere, a voice came out, with a smile in its tone.
"He doesn't need a doctor, he needs a corpse sewer, drag him out."
"Brother, why are you still so downcast if your skills are good?"
"Leave me alone, I'm going to finish this barrel today. Tomorrow's ...... More on that tomorrow. Dahan didn't pay attention to the others at all, and scooped up the wine and drank by himself.
Either he drinks it and leaves, or someone else grabs or buys it.
"Brother, nine silver coins, will you give me the wine?"
"I know your means." The big man glanced at the young man and said with a wry smile: "But you don't understand me, you don't understand where I came back." ”
"If you make any more mistakes, I won't let you finish this barrel of wine."
"Don't worry, man, don't worry......" The big man drank another bowl: "I'm coming back from near the capital, messy ...... It's all messy, and it's said that even the capital is messy. Have you forgotten that legend? ”
"You mean...... The one who doesn't even have a name? ”
"After 10,000 years, the capital will soon collapse, and incompetent people will flee in all directions, they will bring selfishness, calamity and chaos, and no one will be spared......"
