Chapter 123: The Old Man
"You god-damn slaves, your lordship is willing to summon you, it is already a great gift, and you still dare to contradict your lordship. Aren't you afraid that we will slaughter you all?" The collision of the cultivators against Xin Yan made Chen Yi feel very faceless. Behind him, the Black Wind Battalion's guards all drew their flying swords, ready to rush and kill at any time.
The tower-like young man's eyes flashed with hatred, and he said, "Gift, now there are fewer and fewer ores, but the tasks are getting more and more day by day, and the pills you give are getting less and less. Now the well is digging deeper and deeper, and the evil air below is getting heavier and heavier day by day, and every day we are dying. Last month, we had more than two dozen deaths. In less than 10 days of this month, 45 people have died! If this continues, we will die anyway, and it would be better to do the opposite. ”
"It's the other way around!
The cultivators were excited, and everyone's eyes were full of anger!
Chen Yi saw that the situation was about to get out of control, he decisively raised his right hand, and as his right hand was raised little by little, the war department behind him was slowly retreating, and in the process of retreating, the whole team was not in the slightest disorder, and it was outrageously uniform.
As the war department retreated little by little, the momentum of the entire war department continued to rise, and finally it was like a full bow, and the murderous aura that came out was so strong that it seemed to be substantial, and all the cultivators were locked by the sword intent.
There was a trace of despair in the eyes of the tower-like youth and the delicate young man, even when he was locked by Luo Luo's sword intent just now, they were not as desperate.
But in the face of the war department, they didn't even have the slightest chance of escaping, they felt like a spirit beast waiting to be slaughtered, and any struggle was in vain.
All the cultivators were full of sorrow in their hearts, and before they knew it, they had stopped their steps......
The murderous aura emitted by the war department made all the cultivators stop unconsciously, everyone's faces were as if they were dead, and even the most fierce people kept their mouths shut. Many of the cultivators closed their eyes and silently waited for the last moment to come, perhaps this was also a relief for them, no longer having to be enslaved, being escorted to the depths of the mine to dig mines, and living a humiliating life of never having enough to eat......
Seeing that the war department was about to be launched, Xin Yan grabbed Chen Yi's hand that was about to be waved, his voice was not high, but it was full of majesty.
"Stop!"
Hearing his order, all the Black Wind Camp cultivators could only stubbornly stop the sword momentum that was about to be launched, and everyone looked at Xin Yan in surprise.
Xin Yan turned his face and said to Chen Yi: "You and the Black Wind Camp should be withdrawn." I want to talk to them. ”
When Chen Yi heard this, he was shocked, and hurriedly stopped: "Don't be an adult, although their strength is not strong, but there are many of them, if you ......"
Xin Yan looked relaxed and said, "It doesn't matter. I just wanted to have a good talk with them. As he spoke, he calmly glanced at the tower-like youth and the delicate young man, and said to them, "Since you are not even afraid of death, it is so terrible to talk to me?"
"Hmph, let's talk!" the tower-like young man looked directly into Xin Yan's eyes and said without timidity.
"Yes! Your temper is very good for my appetite. Xin Yan waved his hand and motioned for Chen Yi and the Black Wind Battalion to withdraw far away. Although Chen Yi was very worried, he had to obey the order.
Seeing this, the delicate young cultivators also waved their hands, and all the cultivators also retreated far away.
"Okay! Let's have a good talk. Xin Yan sat down on a rough stone as she spoke. His action made the eyes of both the tower-like youth and the delicate young man flash a flash of surprise.
Judging from Xin Yan's style, he knew at a glance that his identity was extremely important, but he sat on the ground without any scruples.
You must know that many disciples of the Great Gate Sect are very particular about food, clothing, sitting and travel, and it is very taboo to sit directly on the ground, even if they want to sit on the ground, they will put a blanket made of demon animal skin underneath, and then sit cross-legged, as if only then can they show their identity.
Xin Yan is accustomed to this, he has grown up in the fields since he was a child, he has to deal with the soil every day, and has an indescribable intimacy with the land.
Seeing that the tower-like youth and the delicate young man were stunned, he pointed to the two stones in front of him and said, "Sit down." ”
"Sit down!" the tower-like youth sat down on the rocks as if he was angry. It was the delicate young man who brushed the stones with one sleeve and then sat down.
Xin Yan said to the two: "My name is Xin Yan, and I am a disciple of the Lingxiao Sect, what is your name?"
"Lingxiao Sect?" The tower-like youth and the delicate young man were both stunned, and they forgot to answer Xin Yan's question.
Xin Yan smiled apologetically and said, "I forgot to tell you, this Old Dragon Island was originally the old dragon's head, and now he has been driven away by us." ”
The tower-like youth and the delicate young man glanced at each other, and soon the young man said, "You mean, you are the new master of this island from now on. In the future, we will be under your control. ”
"You're half right. Xin Yan said to the two: "It's true that this island has a new owner, but whether you will be under my control in the future is not necessarily." It's up to you!"
Before the tower-like young man could react, the delicate young man said, "You mean you want to sell us to others?"
"No!" Xin Yan shook his head and said, "I am ready to lift the slavery ban on you, you can choose to stay and fight against the Demon Wind Pirates with us, or you can choose to leave and go where you want to go, I will not interfere." ”
The tower-like youth and the delicate boy were in shock at the same time, and since they became slave cultivators, they have been thinking about how to escape from slavery and fight for freedom. In fact, who wants to be banned and become a slave to be slaughtered and tortured? Day after day doing the most dangerous and hardest hard labor? But when freedom really comes, they suddenly find that although the world is big, they have nowhere to go.
Seeing that the two of them fell into silence at the same time, Xin Yan knew that the two of them didn't believe their words, and said, "If you want to leave, you can leave with your people now." ”
The tower-like youth and the delicate young man glanced at each other, and the tower-like youth said, "Are you serious?"
Xin Yan nodded and said, "I've always been a man of words. ”
The delicate young man suddenly asked, "If we stay, what are you going to let us do?"
Xin Yan didn't hide the thoughts in his heart at all, and said, "Fight." Fight the Demon Wind Pirates. However, if you want to stay, you must think clearly, the battle with the Demon Wind Pirates will be extremely cruel, and we are not sure of victory. ”
The delicate young man nodded and said, "Whether to go or stay, we can't be the master yet." We have to ask our elders. ”
At this moment, an old man with white flowers, supported by a young cultivator, walked over, the old man walked with difficulty and looked extremely weak.
When the tower-like youth and the delicate young man saw the old man, they all bowed and saluted, looking extremely respectful. The extremely handsome young man walked up to the old man and spoke to him in a very obscure language, as if he was reporting the situation to him. The old man only listened quietly, nodding from time to time to show that he understood. After a while, the old man, supported by the young man, came to Xin Yan's face. He looked at Xin Yan, and there was a hint of strange color in his eyes, but soon he calmed down, solemnly saluted Xin Yan, and said, "Thank you for taking me in, and we are willing to serve." ”
"The old man doesn't need to be polite, get up quickly. Xin Yan hurriedly helped the old man up. Through communication with the old man, Xin Yan also had a preliminary understanding of this group of cultivators. It turned out that they were the remnants of an ancient tribe, and a few years ago, their tribe was conquered, and many of the tribe's young people died in battle, and the rest of the people were all reduced to cultivators. This old man is the only remaining elder of the tribe, and he has a high status in the tribe.
From the mouth of the old man, Xin Yan also learned that the handsome young man was called Ah Wen, who was the best bone flute player in the tribe, and the burly young man was called Wu Jin, who was extremely powerful and the most powerful warrior in the tribe.
