The woman looked at Xu Bai blankly and didn't respond for a long time.

She seemed to see her former self in Xu Bai.

In the past years, countless worlds have united to fight the ultimate battle against the Most Holy, and they have been so full of faith.

They think they can win, they can regain the initiative to survive, not a piece of garbage that has been destroyed at will, but the end result is different.

They lost, lost in a mess, lost in a mess.

The Holy of Holiness won, and it was a pyrrhic victory.

But no matter what, they are always failures.

The loser has no rights to speak of, and her confidence from the beginning to the end has completely collapsed, as if jumping from the top of a high mountain into a terrible hell.

There is nothing left, only depression, she has no energy, nor any ambition, just in this crack, decadent and depressed life.

Until today, seeing Xu Bai being chased and killed by the giant tree, she made a move and pulled Xu Bai in, thinking that she could find someone to talk to to spend a boring time.

But what she didn't expect was that between Xu Bai's words, there was her confidence in the past, and her fighting spirit like a raging flame.

The woman's tone was a little sluggish: "If you need it, I'll help you get it out." ”

Eventually, she decided to say yes because she wanted to see it.

And now Xu Bai seems to have given a glimmer of hope, which is very slim, like a fragile Mars, just a breeze, it is easy to let it fall.

But at least that's hope, and hopefully, she won't continue to be depressed.

"Now there's no hurry, I need to get out of here, can you tell me when the giant tree will go?" Xu Bai shook his head, indicating that he was not panicking for the time being.

This is a very complicated plan, he must be confirmed with the Chu Emperor and let the Chu Emperor help, otherwise it will be difficult to intervene.

The woman said: "If the giant tree can't find you, after a long time, it will naturally return to its original position, and there will be no more movements, and then you can go out, if you want to come in again, just shout in place, and I can sense it, after all, we are of the same origin." ”

Xu Bai nodded: "By the way, until now, I don't know what your name is." ”

The woman agreed: "After a long time, I have forgotten my name, I don't want to recall that past, including my own name, I don't have a name now, if you have to call me, you can call me Wu, or Ah Wu." ”

"Ah Wu......" Xu Bai muttered again: "Can you tell me about the scene when you once fought with the Holy One?" I'm curious about how powerful it is to keep the Holy One Eye. ”

Ah Wu nodded, and then, she sat cross-legged on the ground, and began to talk about the past that she didn't want to recall.

Xu Bai also sat cross-legged on the ground and listened patiently.

Around, there is still the scene as pure as white paper, only Ah Wu's slow voice is left.

……

The outside world, the human world.

After reading the fold in his hand, Emperor Chu put it on the table with a blue face.

What happened in the barbarian fiefdom had already reached his ears, and he didn't expect the other party's offensive to come so quickly, which already made him feel a strong sense of oppression.

"Grandpa Wei, have all those people been resurrected?" Emperor Chu asked.

Gonggong Wei bowed his body, stood beside him, put his hands in his sleeves, and nodded: "Back to Your Majesty, they have all been resurrected, and our family has also asked, they have indeed seen Xu Bai, but Xu Bai has not passed on any information." ”

For them now, time is the most precious, so at the first time, they have protected those people and collected them as much as possible.

Emperor Chu pondered for a moment and said, "Whether the notification from the Dayue side is in place, let them also rein in their own forces, don't feel crowded, at least save their lives, this is the most important thing." ”

Father-in-law Wei agreed: "All of them have been notified, including the border gates on the prince's side, and they have also begun to close the battle line, and we must ensure that there will be no omissions, but Your Majesty, you also know that this world is too big, and even if it is closed, it will be difficult to carry out all-round protection." ”

"And after the collection, there are various follow-up treatments, which require a lot of energy, including how to eat and survive for those people who have been gathered, which are all to be considered."

In many cases, it is not a matter of saying a word that can be completely executed.

This time it is complicated to shrink all the people, including the people in the line, to the center.

For example, after the shrinkage of the people who originally owned their homes and fields, they have become homeless and unemployed, and they may not even be able to eat, and many fields will be directly abandoned, and the food problem is also a major problem.

Emperor Chu sighed: "Let all localities help each other first, and if it is really not handled well, open a warehouse and release grain, which is much better than letting them die." ”

Now that it has reached the moment of life and death, it is not allowed to take into account too many details, and if it can be delayed, it will be postponed for a moment.

Gonggong Wei hesitated: "But Your Majesty, according to this rhythm, in case the other party comes to a delaying tactic with us, they will never attack, we maintain this state for a long time, the financial and material resources consumed will be huge, and I don't know how long we can hold on, the food problem alone is a big problem." ”

The land is limited, and shrinking the number of people in this way will make the number of people per piece of land reach the upper limit, and after reaching the upper limit, it is a kind of chronic death for them.

"I know, but I have to slow down and think of a way as soon as possible within this time, by the way, have you done all the things you did? I need death row inmates, kill them all now, and then have them bring this letter with me. Emperor Chu said briefly and changed the topic.

Grandpa Wei nodded: "It's done, it's okay at any time." ”

He took the letter from the hands of Emperor Chu and put it in his arms.

Emperor Chu waved his hand and said, "Then go now." ”

Father-in-law Wei opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but he didn't open his mouth after all, turned around and left directly.

And after his grandfather left, Emperor Chu's originally upright figure collapsed in an instant, and he sat on the chair with his head resting on the back of the chair.

"It's a dead end."

"If it shrinks, it will be surrounded by people, and when it can't make ends meet, it will collapse like rotten wood."

"The other party is really clever, it seems that there are very clever people in command, and this siege seems to have been thought out."

"What should I do......

Emperor Chu put his forehead on the table with his hand, and muttered to himself while thinking.

On the other side, after Gonggong Wei left the imperial study, he came to a gloomy underground space.

This is the heavenly prison of the Great Chu State, which holds all kinds of prisoners, including many death row prisoners.

In the past, these death row inmates were executed gradually, and they did not gather together for fear of becoming weird.

And now it's different, the trick city has become like this, in fact, it can be killed, but they have kept it, the purpose is to have a way to communicate with Xu Bai.

"Grandpa Wei." The cell boss didn't look good-looking, but he was actually a master at the pinnacle of transcendence, and when he saw Gonggong Wei coming, he quickly put down the wine glass on the side and stood up.

"It doesn't matter, it's okay to have two drinks, just don't get drunk and make mistakes." Gonggong Wei waved his hand, not caring at all.

The cell head wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, feeling the pressure heavy.

After all, the person in front of him has already entered the existence of sainthood, and the reputation in this world is not very good, so he does not dare to slack off.

"Find ten prisoners to bring them out, and we'll wait outside." Gonggong Wei also saw the nervousness of the cell leader, and did not say much, just gave a simple order, and walked out with his hands in his sleeves.

The cell boss hurriedly responded, and according to the orders of Father-in-law Wei, he brought out ten death row prisoners and took them to the courtyard outside.

The death row inmates had yellow faces and thin muscles, standing in the cold wind and shivering, especially in the face of Gonggong Wei, the indifference in their eyes made them feel like they were facing the end of the world.

Gonggong Wei waved his hand lightly, the letter paper given to him by Emperor Chu just now had already been copied out by him, divided into ten parts and fell into the arms of the death row prisoner.

Immediately after, a gray silk thread shot out quickly, and all ten people present penetrated it.

"Bang!"

A dull voice sounded, and the ten death row prisoners fell directly to the ground, without even feeling the pain, they were already lifeless.

"Send someone to stay here, remember to be trustworthy people, they will come back to life." Grandpa Wei said lightly.

The cell boss didn't ask much, let alone say more, but quickly nodded and respectfully agreed.

As for why he was resurrected, he didn't want to know, and he didn't dare to know, and the less he knew, the safer he would be.

Gonggong Wei waved his sleeves and walked away freely.

The cell boss didn't dare to disobey Father-in-law Wei's words, so he hurriedly went to find a few cronies, and they all chose strong ones to stay here.

The bright moon outside the window is very bright, and under the night sky, the stars are flickering and flickering, which is very beautiful.

……

Trick City.

Xu Bai and Ah Wu have been chatting here for a long time, and Xu Bai finally understood the many deeds that have happened from the beginning to the present.

To tell the truth, when he heard it, he felt a little sad.

From that distant era when I didn't know the time, to now I have experienced countless unimaginable years, the war has spread from that time to the present, and Xu Bai finally understood from Ah Wu's mouth that the cruelty of that time.

When ordinary people fight, human lives are counted in strips, but their battle with the Holy One is based on the world, and in an instant, there will be unimaginable world destruction, which is the price of the battle between the two.

"Therefore the most holy must die." Xu Bai said: "There is no need for this kind of cycle to exist, everyone's life should be in their own hands, not the palm of others." ”

Ah Wu sighed: "It's easy to say, but it's as difficult as climbing to the sky, otherwise we wouldn't have to do this." ”

Xu Bai shrugged his shoulders and did not answer.

There is no need to continue this topic, and if it continues, it will only be an annoyance.

Ah Wu didn't say any more, and fell silent.

Neither of them spoke, and a deathly silence crept in.

At this time, Ah Wu looked up at the pure sky and suddenly said.

"He's gone."

Xu Bai changed from sitting cross-legged to standing: "Then I should also go." ”

After being here for so long, who knows what has become of it outside.

Today is different from the past, if you can't receive the slightest information from the outside, you will have the feeling of a day in the sky and a year in the ground.

Ah Wudao: "I'll send you out, but you must be careful, don't leave the city until you have to." ”

Xu Bai nodded, indicating that he knew.

Ah Wu hesitated slightly, as if he hadn't said anything, but it was difficult to say.

Seeing this, Xu Bai knew what Ah Wu was worried about, and said with a smile: "When you don't think about winning or losing is not so important, there is only one thought, that is, to rush forward hard, you have to try, I am not a person who sits still, and I believe you are not." ”

Ah Wu was very depressed: "Who is the one who is waiting to be killed?" But I've been there, and I still don't have too many illusions. ”

Xu Bai said: "You are not afraid of death, this is what you said, I just need you to help me when I am in the most difficult time, that is good, you should be able to do it." ”

Ah Wu nodded: "It can be done." ”

Die?

She wasn't afraid.

Staying here and wanting to live, I just feel that at least I am alive, it is just a hope.

Xu Bai raised his hand and patted Ah Wu's shoulder: "You said that I am you, you are me, but I am not you." ”

Ah Wu was stunned, not knowing how to answer.

"Just do your best." Xu Bai withdrew his hand and said.

Ah Wuwu turned around in a stunned state, nodded, and did not answer what Xu Bai said, but everything was already in plain sight.

A crack appeared in the sky, and Ah Wu motioned for Xu Bai to enter from inside.

Xu Bai didn't talk nonsense, flew into the sky, and sank into the cracks.

After a few moments, the crack faded and returned to its original state, and it became the pure world again.

Ah Wu looked at the blue sky and white clouds sluggishly, and it took a long time to come back to his senses, and he continued to sit cross-legged.

……

Trick City.

Xu Bai's figure appeared suddenly, looking up at the dark red color in the sky, and the corners of his mouth rose slightly.

The giant tree is gone, his threat is gone, and this time he needs to hurry up and get the message out.

He already had a good plan, and that plan would at least make the Most Holy bleed.

Before the final battle comes, weaken the opponent's strength, and cut as much as you can.

"First of all, I need to find a way to contact the outside world, just wait for people to be resurrected, and when they are resurrected, I will be able to carry out my plan."

Xu Bai thought so.

And at this moment, the originally dark red sky suddenly shook violently.

Xu Bai was slightly stunned, and then smiled: "I'm really sleepy and send a pillow, and then it's up to me." ”

He soared straight into the air and flew into the dark red sky.

"Most holy, you have been in the shadow of me for so long, and now I want to give you a big gift!"
