This place is the junction of Lingzhou and Chuzhou.

There used to be a small city with beautiful mountains and rivers and simple folk customs, called Lingxiu City.

That year, Qin Luo drank the unique wine "Three Mouthfuls of Sweetness" here, but after too much time, its taste has been forgotten, and I only remember the first sip of drinking it, and the feeling of putting paper kites in early spring in my memory overlapped wonderfully.

Qin Luo came here again, and he was already holding this place and it was another ruin.

However, he was shocked to find that there seemed to be a long-lost fireworks here.

From a distance, its walls, although low and quaint, are intact.

This complete city wall is already different from all the city ruins that Qin Luo has seen these days.

Fight the sword Lingzhou for three thousand miles, and slash the demon beast all the way.

It is what Qin Luo has been busy with for dozens of days.

After the Lingzhou Beast Tide back then, there were actually quite a few mortals who survived.

It's just that those mortals can't resist the beasts after all, and if they live together, they will attract more powerful monsters.

Therefore they can only hide.

A hundred years have passed, and the number of mortals in Lingzhou is getting smaller and smaller.

Qin Luo traveled more than 3,000 miles all the way, and only met more than 20 or 30 families.

And they lived a very miserable life, most of them hid in caves, and only three or more strong men in the family could have the opportunity to run to the shade of the mountain, build a simple house, and live.

Qin Luo felt sad when he saw the lives of these people, basically every family he met, if the other party was willing to keep him at home for dinner, then he would leave a town house charm to help them change their feng shui a little and be less attacked by wild beasts.

As for when these demon beasts would be wiped out, Qin Luo was not sure.

Maybe another hundred years, maybe a thousand years, but it is impossible for these demon beasts to dominate Lingzhou forever.

On the way, he continued to lose the strength of the beast clan in Lingzhou, and every time he went, he would kill one or two beast kings to play.

If he encounters a first-order demon beast, even if the other party escapes for more than ten miles, he will still chase after it and kill it.

As for the second-order demon beast, it is equivalent to a monk in the middle stage of foundation building.

Relying on many means, Qin Luo was barely seriously injured, but the other party was an eagle, and when he saw Qin Luo's murderous intent, he flew away as soon as he slipped away.

Even with his hunter instinct, he couldn't catch up with it.

However, Qin Luo knew one thing in his heart.

That is, there are more than first-order and second-order demon beasts in Lingzhou.

Otherwise, he could even ask the Jiangzhou Dan Kingdom in the neighboring Lingzhou to send an army and mix with the monks to recapture this land occupied by the beast clan.

Although Qin Luo did not encounter it, there would definitely be a third-order demon beast in Lingzhou.

And the third-order demon beast is not something that ordinary armies can deal with.

Even if the rest of the Qin family's monks were besieged and killed together, the entire army might be wiped out under its minions.

As for whether there is a higher-level existence, Qin Luo is sure that there is.

After all, the truth of the beast tide that he tortured from the mouth of the elder of the Ten Thousand Medicine Sect of the Dao Alliance was the agreement reached between the Demon Emperor of Lingzhou and the Dao Alliance.

The demon beasts that can discuss with the Dao Alliance and reach an agreement are probably not lower than the strength of Yuan Ying.

A demon beast of this strength is in Lingzhou, and it is still too difficult for Qin Luo to make trouble on a large scale.

After all, with such an existence, it launched a beast tide and easily destroyed several major powers in Lingzhou at that time.

Even if the Dan State has now completed the integration of Jiangzhou, Qin Luo does not feel that the Dan State has been qualitatively improved compared to the original Lingzhou Three Kingdoms, and can block the terrifying beast tide.

Even if there is a Qin family in Dan and a hidden building, but in front of your beast tide, you can only hold part of the area at a glance, and it is absolutely impossible to completely clear it.

Therefore, Qin Luo did not think about using the power of Dan State to save the people in Lingzhou who were still breathing.

After all, sacrificing the interests of a large group of people to save a very small number of people.

In Qin Luo's opinion, this is not fair enough.

However, if he has enough strength in the coming year, he will naturally be willing to make a move.

Thinking like this, Qin Luo approached Lingxiu City.

On the city wall, there are still heavily armed soldiers on duty.

Qin Luo was slightly stunned, a city of this size, in the current Lingzhou, is as dazzling as a fire in the night, I am afraid it will attract the attention of demon beasts.

But it seemed very peaceful and peaceful, very different from the ruined scene when I visited this place for the second time a hundred years ago.

He walked to the city gate, and when the soldiers on the city wall found it, they cried out: "That old man below, you are alone, from which direction did you come?" ”

"When I came to Guicheng from the direction of Chuzhou to do business, I got lost on the side for a while, and almost went around to Lingzhou, and then I encountered a wild beast, so I could only leave everything on my body and escape with my life." Qin Luo replied fluently.

If he said that he had killed most of Lingzhou and came here, not to mention whether the other party believed it or not, that is, if the other party believed it, his own trouble might be greater.

Therefore, he made up a reasonable reason, but also to avoid suspicion.

The soldiers on the city wall listened, greeted the side a few words, and then looked at Qin Luo and said: "Brother, you have to pay attention next time, those who come from Chuzhou must go through the south city gate, and our east city gate is not open on weekdays in order to prevent fierce beasts from rushing into the city from the mountains to make trouble."

But if you are allowed to walk from here to the south gate again, I am afraid it will not be suitable, so I will be accommodating, and we will open the gate later, and you can come in quickly. ”

"Thank you, thank you." Qin Luo responded with a smile.

However, at this time, he was more curious about the situation in the city.

Originally, Qin Luo saw Lingxiu City standing here, thinking that the location was too partial, plus it was at the junction of Lingzhou and Chuzhou, so those demon beasts didn't come here.

But when Qin Luo heard the words of the soldiers defending the city, it meant that it was possible for the beast to rush down from the mountain and enter the city.

If there are fierce beasts that will attack this place, it means that this place is still a piece of fat for those fierce beasts, and it has not been abandoned.

But those people in Lingxiu City seem to be able to live and work in peace and contentment here.

In addition, the identity of the merchant of Chuzhou that he fabricated just now was not suspected, indicating that Lingxiu City was even trading with Chuzhou.

All these circumstances prove that they are now full of vitality.

This last city in Lingzhou is probably not what it looks like on the surface, but it is as simple as relying on soldiers to garrison.

After all, no matter how heavily armed a soldier is, he can deal with fierce beasts, but he can't deal with demon beasts.

For so many years, it was impossible for Lingxiu City not to have suffered a single demon beast attack.

Case.

To have the strength to gain a foothold here, Lingxiu City must have a unique mystery.

And why, Qin Luo can only know if he goes in to visit.
