Chapter 60: Contradictions

Everyone went all the way non-stop, and finally rushed to the vicinity of the town after two days, and looked from a distance, and saw a dilapidated building sign that could vaguely distinguish the words "White Crane Town".

Looking at the snow under the building plaque that was messed up due to repeated trampling, Yun Luotian and his party frowned, before coming out, according to the hall master's information, human activities have shrunk sharply in this year, and they are approaching the temple headquarters, and this White Crane Town is a town on the very edge, and their task is to help the temple branch stationed against demonic beasts.

The crowd rode forward, only to see that the streets were overgrown with weeds, and the houses were dilapidated, and some of them even collapsed into ruins for some unknown reason.

Wen Huiqing frowned, concentrating on perception, and saw that there were about a few hundred people hiding in the corner of the dilapidated house, so he shouted: "Give me all out, what kind of ability is hiding and hiding?"

After a while, an old voice came from behind the ruins, and said in a low voice: "Lord Divine Envoy, it has been snowing heavily recently, and our harvest is running out, and we can't hand it in anymore, otherwise we old people and children may not be able to hold on." ”

Everyone turned their heads to look at the ruins, and saw a ragged and gray-haired rickety old man walking out from behind the ruins with a wooden stick.

Suddenly, a childish voice came out, and there was some panic in the childish voice, and said, "Grandpa, grandpa, are they going to rob us of food again? I'm so hungry!"

Everyone was puzzled when they heard this scene, and only listened to Zhang Zhengdao: "Old man, we are the envoys of the Snow Covering Temple, and we were sent to resist the invasion of demonic beasts, and we are not robbers with guns and money." ”

The old man coughed a few times and said, "I know that you are fighting hard, and we should also provide you with food, but there is really not much food recently, and hundreds of people from all over me are waiting for the remaining food to survive!"

When everyone heard this, they were even more puzzled, and suddenly a sound of horses' hooves came from the other side of the street, and before the people arrived, the accent of the rough mine came, and they only listened: "Old thing, if you don't hand over the food in your hand today, I don't think you have to wait for the monster to come, and today we want you to look good!"

Before the words fell, a team of people rushed out of the corner of the street, and the old man's face changed greatly, and his already trembling body trembled even more.

I saw a purple flame envoy taking the lead, and the five blue flame envoys behind him came with a dozen yellow flame envoys riding horses, their expressions were very proud and rampant, and they were taken aback when they saw Zhang Xiaojie and other more than ten people, but then their eyes glanced at the cuffs of everyone, and a trace of disdain immediately surged to their faces.

Yun Luotian looked at it, and saw that the purple flame envoy who took the lead raised his eyebrows and raised his eyes, his face was vicious, and his entire face was covered with scratches that were suspected to be beast claws, and the scars on his face looked really terrifying.

The Purple Flame Envoy said disdainfully: "Could it be that you are the support sent by the headquarters? Why, is the headquarters planning to give up this bird place and send you a group of dolls who have not grown all their hair to send them to death?"

Lei Daqiang was immediately furious, and was about to fight back, Qiu Bing stretched out his hand and pressed Lei Daqiang down.

At this time, the Purple Flame Envoy said again: "Forget it, it's better to come than no one, so let's teach this old guy a lesson for me, so that he can understand that it is a matter of course for the masters to sacrifice their lives and deaths to protect their things, and teach them what gratitude is to be taught." ”

Qiu Bing's brows furrowed, and at this time Xu Jinjiang said: "They are already difficult to protect themselves, and they don't have the strength to fight, why do they have to levy food on them?"

Zi Yan frowned, a trace of coldness welled up in his eyes, and said, "Are you questioning my orders?" After a pause, he said: "This group of people can neither fight nor provide logistics, why protect them, they can't provide food today, and they will all be executed." ”

As soon as the words fell, the voices of the children on both sides of the street cried, and the crying shook the sky, and then there was a subtle sound of the mother coaxing the children, which made Yun Luotian and the others unbearable to listen to it anymore.

"What are you crying about?" Purple Flame drew his knife and swung it in the air, the white head of the knife flashed, and a low house next to the street immediately exploded, sawdust flew one after another, only to see many people behind the house fall to the ground, rolling into a ball, Purple Flame was about to swing another knife, but was held up by a golden long stick.

The Purple Flame Envoy sneered and looked at Zhang Zheng, who was holding his blade, and said, "Why, you are so kind, do you want to commit a crime for this group of waste?" After speaking, he turned his head to look at Zhang Xiaojie, who was at the forefront, and said: "How do you manage things, as a Blue Flame Envoy, you don't restrain your subordinates and offend your superiors, can you be guilty?"

Zhang Xiaojie sneered and said nothing.

Purple Flame made a blue flame behind him and said coldly: "The following offenders will be imprisoned for five days, and the heavy ones will be expelled from the temple." ”

Everyone frowned again, when did the Snow Cover Hall have such a rule?

The Purple Flame Envoy snorted coldly and said, "I read that you are a person sent by the headquarters and don't understand the rules, as long as you ask for food this time, I will not hold you responsible." ”

Wen Huiqing sighed and said, "Since you know that we are from the headquarters, why haven't we heard this kind of rule you said?"

The blue flame behind him shouted again: "Bold, since you have been sent down, then you have to abide by our rules, just Huang Yan, what qualifications do you have to interject?"

This person interjected repeatedly, and his attitude was extremely bad, where could Wen Huiqing bear it, I saw her wave with one hand, the green shadow flashed, and immediately heard the sound of "pop", and the blue flame who spoke was immediately slapped off the horse.

Everyone was stunned for a while, but they didn't expect this woman to dare to fight without saying a word.

But then all the weapons lit up, and for a moment the cold light flashed, forcing all the townspeople who had been hiding on both sides to come out and scatter.

Zi Yan shouted at Lan Yan: "What a waste" After scolding, he looked at Wen Huiqing and the others with a sneer, and said: "The people at the headquarters are so majestic, they actually dare to attack their superiors when they say a few words from you, if he scolds you, will you kill him?"

Wen Huiqing snorted and said, "You can't live if you do your own evil, you can modify the tenets of the temple without authorization, and you are disrespectful to the representative of the headquarters, let alone beat, why not kill it." ”

"Good, good, good!" Purple Flame said hello three times in a row, and then raised his hand high, Yun Luotian and the others all held their weapons, staring at Purple Flame's raised hand, they knew that as long as this hand was waved, the people behind him would attack him in groups.

The cold wind was already cold, but the temperature around them seemed to have dropped a few points due to their confrontation.

Yun Luotian's face was cold, the quality of the personnel outside the temple was his own experience, and he also killed one, for these people who were doing evil everywhere in the name of the temple, as long as they dared to take the lead in attacking, he would not mind killing a few more.

For a moment, the sword was tense, and the hand of the Purple Flame Envoy gradually drooped, and the weapons of Yun Luotian and the others were also pulled out more and more, and they saw that the conflict was about to break out.

Suddenly, a horse neighed wildly, appearing not far behind Zi Yan and the others, shouting loudly: "Don't be rude to the headquarters." ”

Purple Flame made his face look unwilling, angrily threw his hand aside, and rode to the side of the road without saying a word.

After a while, the single man rode and rushed over, only to see a man in his mid-forties and a rough face stop in front of Zhang Xiaojie.

As soon as everyone looked at the gorgeous black flame on his cuffs, they knew that this was the highest-level black flame envoy Li Zhaoren in White Crane Town that the hall master said.

Seeing that Zhang Xiaojie and the others were still vigilant, Li Zhaoren smiled and said: "Everyone came from afar, Li specially prepared a table of banquets for everyone, I hope you don't hurt your harmony because of some small misunderstandings." ”

Yun Luotian smiled slightly, and said: "Very good, very good, we are here to help the adults resist the demonic beasts, and we don't want to fight because of some small frictions, if the gods make the adults have any offense against us, please bear with me!"

"Where, where!" Li Zhaoren smiled and said, "Then I will lead the way, you come with me and taste some of the specialties of this remote land." ”

After speaking, he turned the horse's head, and Yun Luotian and the others followed.
