Chapter 109: Phoenix Village

Germany is a country located in the northernmost part of the southern continent, with a territory of less than 100,000 square kilometers and a pitifully small population, but it is a mouth-watering piece of fat in the mouths of many countries and consortia, because it contains one of the few precious mineral deposits in the world - diamonds.

Phoenix Village is a small village in the northwest of the country, the village has always been rich in diamonds, has a long history of mining, and has successively given birth to many rich and powerful people. However, today's Phoenix Village can already be without attractive plane trees. Due to excessive mining and excavation, a large amount of soil erosion has been caused, and the local people have become rich and extravagant. When the pot-bellied locals have spent all their diamond possessions and the ore is nearly depleted, they don't know how to survive. The war that came after that became the last straw that crushed the donkey crossing the river, making this once glorious and rich place suddenly desolate and lonely. The villagers died to death and fled, and a huge village almost became an empty village, and there was no one at a glance.

Until one day, a nun named Maria came here, and she took the remnants of the people and the orphans left behind by the war, and built a tall church with her hands and through hard work. The church became a shelter and shelter for the people of the village, and showed the way and warmed the hearts of those who were discouraged by war and poverty. Under the guidance and guidance of Sister Maria, the people regained their faith and courage, rebuilt their homes, and soon returned to their old ways after the war.

However, just as the people of the village were just getting back on track, a scientific expedition from the World Union Government unexpectedly entered the village, and soon discovered that there was a huge undiscovered diamond vein under the village, and this vein was located nowhere else, just below the church.

The government's intention is clear, it is to obtain these ores, with the aim of using the special energy contained in diamonds to make military laser weapons. As a result, the government made several representations with Sister Maria, but she refused. "This church was built by the concerted efforts of orphans and refugees, who worked hard and overcame all kinds of difficulties under very difficult conditions," she said. This is the home of those who survived the war, and it is also the sustenance and belief of many people in the village. No matter how much compensation is given to me, no matter how precious the diamond beneath her is, no matter how desperate the needs of the world government are, I will not allow you to buy and tear down this church. ”

Seeing that Sister Maria's attitude was so resolute and tough, and considering her influence, the local government did not dare to use force to forcibly occupy and demolish it, so they colluded with a group of powerful gangsters in the neighboring city and sent them to often go to the village church to make trouble and make trouble, trying to force the people in the church to compromise by despicable means. So, the orphans and refugees in the church, led by Sister Maria, fought against these gangsters, but a group of women and children, old and weak, were the opponents of the fierce bandits. On more than one occasion, refugees and orphans have died in the struggle. Despite this, the people in the church never gave up, and the death of their companions and loved ones brought them closer, more united, and more determined, and vowed to keep the warm home that Sister Maria and everyone had built together.

Early one morning, a blonde man, hungry and thirsty, fainted at the door of the church. Ignoring the opposition of the crowd, the kind-hearted Sister Maria insisted on carrying the man into the church, bringing him water, medicine, and food. Soon, the blonde man came to his senses, and he expressed his gratitude to Sister Maria and the people who had rescued him. However, as soon as he woke up, he insisted on leaving, and no matter how much Sister Maria tried to persuade him, it was useless. Finally, the churchgoers and Maria watched as the blonde man walked out of the church and disappeared into the distance.

On that night when the moon was dark and the wind was high, and I couldn't see my fingers, even the moon couldn't bear to see the evil raging, so she quietly hid in the clouds. Finally, the high-ranking government officials, who could not bear it anymore, sent a small team of gangsters and mercenaries to attack Sister Maria's church in full armor. Under the gunfire of modern weapons, the people in the church suffered heavy casualties, and for a time the flames soared into the sky, reflecting the sky red, and they could be seen from several kilometers away. The blonde man, who had not yet gone far, saw a fire burning in the direction of the village church, and knew in his heart that something must have happened. He rushed back, and when he saw the misery in front of him, he couldn't bear to look at it, and with a scream, he shot several flaming arrows that pierced through the masked intruders, burning them to ashes in an instant.

The invaders found strong resistance, and all the fire was concentrated on the blonde man, and Maria fended off the bullets for him in order to protect the blonde man's back, but was shot and killed herself. Looking at Sister Maria, who had fallen in his arms and died for himself, the blonde man burst into anger and jumped high in the air, and countless flaming meteor arrows shot from the sky, annihilating all the intruders in an instant.

After the battle, the blonde man, along with the survivors, extinguished the flames in the church and buried the dead Maria and her companions.

After learning what had happened from the others, the blonde man knelt in front of Maria and said to the tombstone: "Actually, it's the same everywhere, there is no pure land in this world, it's better to face it than to hide." So, I decided to stay and protect these people in your place. ”

The blonde man stood up, and the breeze blew his bright blonde hair, floating in the air, and it was very beautiful.

"Not only will I rebuild the church, but I will also protect all of you on the behalf of Sister Maria!" said the blonde man, turning to the weeping people. "My name is Xuanguang. ”

In the days that followed, Xuanguang led the survivors to rebuild the dilapidated church, and he also taught the adults how to fight, and gave lectures to the orphans to teach them some knowledge. Everyone affectionately calls him "Teacher Light".

As a result of this fiasco, the local government also knew that there was such a master in the church. On the other hand, they reported the situation to the higher authorities, hoping that the higher authorities would investigate the details of this man named "Xuanguang" and then take corresponding countermeasures......

Zhu Ping'an and his entourage finally arrived at their destination on the superspacecraft designed by Xuanwu -- Rode, a border country in the southern continent. The spaceship slowly descended, and Xuanwu issued an order to the ship's artificial function system: "Levi, activate the stealth protection program." ”

When Zhu Ping'an and the others stepped off the spaceship, the spaceship behind them magically disappeared from view, which was the stealth protection program system.

"Where are we going next?" asked Xuanwu.

"According to my informant's information, Suzaku must be around here. Xuanwu stood at the entrance of the village and looked up.

"It's hard to imagine that Suzaku, who has always been a lover of luxury and has a high demand for quality of life, would stay in such a small village. Laura said as she looked around.

"What kind of person is that Suzaku in your mouth?" asked Laura.

"How to say it, cheerful and lively, there is also a little cynicism, very pursuing material enjoyment and external beauty, and is a person who is very particular about everything he does. Laura replied to Ping'an. "But he's so strong, so strong that he never fights to the fullest. ”

"Actually, that's a kind of wisdom of his, he never fights with opponents who are not sure to win, speed is his killer weapon, his high speed can even cause friction in the air, produce high heat, and generate flames, which is why the master named him the 'Vermilion Bird' among the four spirit generals. Suzaku, that's the legendary Flame Divine Bird!" Xuanwu explained with a smile on his face, among the four spirit generals, he and Suzaku have cooperated the most times as a partner, and the relationship is also the best.

"It's such a person, and I really want to meet him. Ping An looked at the road into the village, "Let's go!"

"Someone!" The astute Qin Yi suddenly noticed that not far behind him, there was a noisy voice. At the same time, the three of them also noticed it, and the four of them divided into two groups, and jumped under the mounds on both sides like raccoon cats, hiding underneath.

At this moment, I saw a group of cavalry wearing the uniforms of the World Coalition Government passing through at high speed and rushing into the village from a cloud of dust in the distance.

"Strange, how can the cavalry of the World Coalition Government enter this remote village?"

"Could it be that Suzaku's identity has been revealed, and the World Coalition Government has sent troops to arrest him?" Xuanwu muttered.

"How is it possible, Suzaku-sama has always been cautious, how could he easily reveal his identity, and with his ability, how could he be caught easily?" Laura was very confident in Suzaku.

"Anyway, you have to be careful. Xuanwu said to the three of them.

"Hmm!" they nodded.

"That's it," Xuanwu suggested to Ping'an, "let's divide it into two groups, one group of people will go to the village to inquire about the situation first, and let the other group of people follow these soldiers of the World Coalition Government to see what is going on?"

"That's fine, make a two-handed plan. Laura agreed.

"It's all up to Mr. Xuanwu's arrangement. Ping An nodded. So, after everyone discussed, Ping'an and Laura entered the village to inquire about the situation, and Xuanwu and Qin Yi tracked down the cavalry to find out.
