Chapter 36: May Be Resurrected!
Yang Yi swallowed his saliva and jumped onto the grave.
The Shattering Knife was inserted nearly halfway from the top of the tomb, and the color of the blade was much darker.
Yang Yi could even feel wisps of strange energy being drawn from the Shattering Knife and disappearing into the grave in a steady stream.
A terrible thought suddenly crossed his mind:
This Su Wanniang won't be resurrected!
A grand voice once said that the strong are indefatigable, and the remnants of the soul are immortal.
Although he has fallen, if he does not die completely, he still has a chance to come back to life.
He originally thought that the loud voice was talking about those big tombs in the depths of the Sword Prison, because the higher the tomb, the higher the cultivation in front of the deceased, and the more difficult it was to die.
But now it seems that he was wrong.
Given the chance, any strong man here has the potential to be resurrected.
For example, this Su Wanniang, I don't know how to take in the shattering knife and forcibly absorb the energy in the shattering knife.
Of course, this is just Yang Yi's speculation.
"No, my knife!"
Yang Yi suddenly screamed sadly, and as soon as he grabbed the handle of the knife, he wanted to pull it out.
Whether it was to prevent Su Wanniang from resurrecting or to rescue the remnant knife, he had to pull out the broken knife.
He was still waiting for the Devouring Shattering Sword Cultivation to rise greatly.
It's just that no matter how hard Yang Yi tries, even if he uses up his milk strength, it still doesn't help, and then the shattering knife bursts out, and he directly shocks him out.
Yang Yi exclaimed, and quickly fell to the ground.
His face kept changing, and finally came to Su Wanniang's tombstone, and sincerely apologized: "Senior, it's all my bastard, I shouldn't have found your remnant soul to practice, and I shouldn't have snatched the sword with you."
You adults don't remember villains, don't take them to heart.
Don't worry, from now on, I won't be training with you anymore, and I will never disturb your rest.
Don't you like to smash and destroy knives, and whatever good knives the younger generations get in the future, they will all be used to honor you. ”
Zheng! Zheng!
The shattered sword roared, and the sword qi rose to the sky, turning into a peerless divine knife, stirring the Quartet.
Yang Yi was horrified, for fear that there would be another knife prison riot.
Fortunately, the Shattering Knife quickly regained its quietness, and the sword qi dissipated.
Grunt!
Yang Yi swallowed his saliva with difficulty, what does this shattered sword mean by such a vision?
Did Su Wanniang agree, or did she not agree?
"It seems that the matter of finding the Origin Dao Treasure can't be delayed, today Su Wanniang is resurrected, will there be other strong people resurrected tomorrow, then this sword prison is actually full of ghosts?"
Yang Yi's heart suddenly became urgent.
It is impossible for him to completely pin his life and death on Su Wanniang's 'kindness'.
It's just this Origin Dao Treasure, where can I find it?
Yang Yi flashed out of the sword prison, preparing to return to the Ziyang Sect first.
At that time, ask Jiang Zhendao, maybe the other party knows.
After finding a waterhole in the mountains, he took a bath, changed into new clothes, dressed up carefully, and no longer looked like he was running for his life, and then walked out of the Tuocang Mountains.
It has been almost a month since the incident of the Sword Emperor's Tomb, and the Tuocang Mountain Range has also returned to quiet.
Yang Yi didn't encounter any robbery, he found someone to ask for directions, learned his location, so he took out a map and looked at it, and found that he was on the border between Wei and Qin.
The Tuocang Mountain Range stretches for thousands of miles, and the Wei and Qin countries are bounded by this mountain range, and Luo Tianzong is not very far from here, otherwise they would not have the ability to send so many disciples to join forces with the Lumen Sword Sect to seal and control the Sword Emperor Tomb.
Jinyang City, a border city of Wei State.
Because it is located on the border between the two countries, there are many merchants coming and going, and this Jinyang City is also quite prosperous.
Walking on the street, Yang Yi suddenly smelled a familiar fragrance.
It is the taste of haggis.
When he was a child, because he was targeted, he and his grandfather did not have a good time in the Yang family.
But every month his grandfather would take him out to eat a bowl of haggis noodles, and the taste is still fresh in my memory.
I was away from home for three or four months, and I don't know what happened to my grandfather.
Yang Yi looked at it, it was a street stall.
The boss was an old man with gray hair, short brown, and a little girl of five or six years old was very well-behaved to help.
Or add firewood, or clean up the dishes and chopsticks on the table.
Looking at the old man and the little girl, he suddenly thought of himself and his grandfather.
Yang Yi stepped forward to find an empty seat and sat down, and said, "Old man, come and play haggis noodles for me." Put more haggis and I'll add extra money. ”
The short brown old man smiled kindly: "Childe, wait a minute, it will be fine immediately." ”
Yang Yi didn't wait long, and the little girl came over with a big bowl of haggis noodles.
She said in a milky voice: "Little brother, your face." ”
Yang Yi hurriedly took it and thanked with a smile: "Thank you, little girl, be careful that it gets burned." ”
The little girl smiled very sweetly: "No, the little girl will not be burned last year." Little brother, my grandfather's haggis noodles are the best, you can eat them. ”
With that, she clapped her little hands and turned and walked away.
Yang Yi smiled, picked up the chopsticks and took a bite, the taste was indeed delicious, with the taste of childhood.
In fact, since three years ago, he basically hadn't eaten, and he had replaced it with refined grain pills, because the five grains and omnivorous foods contained too many impurities, which would pollute the martial artist's body and be not conducive to the cultivation of the secret realm of the flesh.
Now that he is in the Qi Pulse Realm, he has no taboos in this regard.
But the reincarnation of grains is a very cumbersome thing, so he is still used to replacing meals with refined grain pills.
"The tax collection team is here, Luo Tianzong's tax collection team is here!"
There was a sudden commotion in the streets.
Yang Yi looked up and saw a group of Luo Tianzong's disciples collecting money from house to house, not even letting go of the street vendors.
He secretly wondered, this is Jinyang City of Wei State, why did Luo Tianzong's people come here to collect taxes?
Seeing that the short brown old man was done, he beckoned, called the other party over and asked, "Old man, what's going on?" This is the Jinyang City of our Wei State, why did the people of the Qin State come to collect taxes, and the government doesn't care? ”
The short brown old man sighed and said: "Where does the government dare to care, even the Taishou has to be respectful when he sees Luo Tianzong's disciples, even pity us little people, the government has to collect business taxes once a month, and Luo Tianzong's people have to collect it once." We earn copper money every month, and sometimes we don't have enough money to pay taxes. ”
"What's going on, could it be that the government is colluding with Luo Tianzong?"
Yang Yi was shocked and hurriedly asked.
"Childe is just passing by here, it's normal not to know, this thing has to start from three years ago......"
According to the short brown old man, a large-scale war broke out between Wei and Qin three years ago, and the total number of troops invested by both sides was as high as more than 500,000, but it ended in a crushing defeat for Wei.
Qin seized the opportunity to seize large swathes of Wei's territory, and cities along other borders were also infiltrated.
For example, in Jinyang City, Luo Tianzong declared Jinyang City to be their sphere of influence, and then sent people into the city to collect taxes, but the Taishou Mansion also turned a blind eye to this matter.
Even if someone resists taxes, the Taishou Mansion will arrest people and send them to Luo Tianzong to make amends.
In the end, everyone completely lost confidence in the government.
The short brown old man said sadly and angrily: "Luo Tianzong is tyrannical, and the Taishou Mansion not only does not stop it, but follows the example, I don't know how many people have been forced to die, and the people are miserable." ”
Yang Yi was furious, not only angry at Luo Tianzong's actions, but also angry at the incompetence of the Taishou Mansion.
No wonder Princess Pingyang and the third prince risked death to enter the tomb of the Sword Emperor to find an opportunity.
They wanted to change the Wei State and no longer be bullied by the Qin State.
At this time, a disciple of Luo Tianzong walked to the noodle stall, and he shouted: "Old man, this month's money should be paid." ”
The short brown old man had already prepared, and he took out three strings of black copper coins from his arms: "Young man, this is my family." ”
The disciple of Luo Tianzong put the copper coin in the basket and did not walk away, but shook his head and said: "Less, from this month onwards, your family's monthly tax money has risen to six hundred Wen, which means that you have to make up three hundred." ”
"Six... Six hundred..."
The short brown old man exclaimed, and hurriedly begged: "Shaoxia, how can it rise so much, can it be less, I really can't take out so much money." I'm busy all day, and I'll earn fifty or sixty dollars. ”
The disciple of Luo Tianzong said impatiently: "How much money you make, no matter what I do, I only know that you must pay all this money, otherwise don't blame me for being unkind." ”
"Shaoxia, I only have one hundred and twenty Wen, why don't you give me a few more days?"
The short brown old man begged and handed over everyone's money.
"Old thing, you're fooling me!"
Luo Tianzong's disciple kicked the short brown old man to the ground with one kick, and the copper coin was sprinkled all over the ground: "I Luo Tianzong's rules, you won't know it, and you have never been in arrears." ”
"Ouch...... Grandpa......"
The short brown old man screamed, and the little girl cried and stepped forward to help her grandfather, but was grabbed by Luo Tianzong's disciple and lifted it directly, which made the little girl cry, but she couldn't help crying.
"Nannan, my Nannan."
The short brown old man struggled to get up, but fell down again.
He could only lie on his stomach and keep kowtowing, begging: "Shaoxia, please let my granddaughter go, let her go, she is only five years old, I will definitely raise all the money." ”
Seeing her grandfather's embarrassed appearance, the little girl endured the pain and tried to squeeze out a smile: "Grandpa, it doesn't hurt, don't kowtow anymore, it's all bleeding." ”
The little girl's words are sensible and heart-wrenching.
Luo Tianzong's disciple just sneered, his eyes were indifferent, and it seemed that he had long since lost human emotions.
He grabbed the little girl by the hair and hung her over the cauldron.
Below was the boiling hot water, which frightened the little girl and turned pale.
The short brown old man was even more desperate, but he could only lie on the ground and cry.
Luo Tianzong's disciple joked: "Old thing, don't say that Ben Shaoxia didn't give you a chance, I'll count three times, you either take the money and I'll leave, or I'll cook your grandson alive today... Ah......h
He suddenly screamed, the knife flashed, and his right arm was cut off by Qi Gen, and blood splattered.
Yang Yi had already been extremely angry, especially when he saw the short brown old man lying on the ground and kowtowing.
He thought of his grandfather, and thought of his grandfather being forced to kowtow to save himself.
He could no longer suppress the anger and killing intent in his heart, and cut off the arm of Luo Tianzong's disciple with a knife, hugged the little girl and shook her gently, sending her to the short brown old man.
The screams of Luo Tianzong's disciples instantly alarmed the others around them.
Soon, more than a dozen Luo Tianzong disciples gathered around, and after learning that it was Yang Yi who did it, they were murderous.
The leader of them shouted: "Who are you, you dare to hurt my disciple of Luo Tianzong? If you don't give us an explanation today, you can stay here. ”
"Explain, what do you want to explain."
Yang Yi's blood drinking knife pointed at the disciples of Luo Tianzong, and shouted: "This is the city of Wei State, but you are collecting heavy taxes here, and forcing people to die, and it is you who want to give an explanation today." ”
The leader sneered: "Joke, Jinyang City is sheltered by my Luo Tianzong, isn't it normal for us to collect taxes?"
As for these untouchables, they can't pay their taxes, and it's a waste to live.
Since you want to stand up for them, then I will behead you today and hang your head on the city wall to warn the world that anyone who dares to oppose my Luo Tianzong will be a dead end. Brothers, kill with me. ”
"Kill!"
A group of Luo Tianzong disciples rushed up and killed them.
"What a domineering Luo Tianzong, today I will eliminate the harm for the people, let me die all."
Yang Yi strode forward, and the blood drinking knife slashed down, and he saw that the head of the leader was cut off, and the blood column gushed several feet high.
Then he crashed into the crowd, killing a man every time the flash of his sword flashed.
More than a dozen disciples of Luo Tianzong were all slashed and killed by him.
But the last disciple of Luo Tianzong released his belief in distress before he died, and a bright firework burst overhead.
Yang Yi's face changed, he was not afraid of the disciples of Luo Tianzong who collected taxes from this group of people.
But if a master comes, he will be in trouble.
The short brown old man hurriedly shouted: "Young man, escape, run away." ”
Yang Yi put the knife into the sheath and said unhurriedly: "Don't worry, I'll take you with me, otherwise they won't let you go." Don't worry, I'll find a place to settle you. ”
The short brown old man is also excited, he will die if he dies, but his granddaughter can't.
At this moment, Yang Yi suddenly found that the surrounding merchants and pedestrians rushed to surround him, and his face was unexpectedly unkind.
One of them said angrily: "You can't go, let alone take them away, otherwise Luo Tianzong will investigate this matter, and we will be implicated, and you are trying to kill us." ”
"Not bad. You are a young man, you are chivalrous and righteous, you are hot-blooded, but what should we do? ”
"If you have to leave, we can't stop you, instead of dying in the hands of Luo Tianzong, you might as well kill us all."
……
The crowd was surging, and everyone was full of voices, looking like they were going to fight hard with Yang Yi.
Yang Yi was stunned, incredible.
He was angry in his heart, but more than that, he was sad, this was a group of people who were spiritually enslaved by Luo Tianzong.
"Taishou is here, everyone get out of the way!"
I don't know who shouted, and then the crowd dispersed.
A middle-aged officer with a big belly walked in menacingly, followed by four soldiers.
Looking at the corpses of Luo Tianzong's disciples all over the ground, he was shocked and angry, almost thundering, pointing at Yang Yi and angrily reprimanding: "......"
