Chapter 116: See the Giant Again
Wuji and Ying Yiran traveled all the way north, and half a month later, they reached the south bank of the sinkhole.
Tiangen Mountain has been restored to its original state, standing quietly in the sinkhole, except for some rocks falling into the mountain, making the originally lush mountain peak have a few gray-white scars, there is no obvious change.
Winter is just around the corner, and most of the plants on the mountain will turn yellow, so who will notice these changes?
What's more, there are not many people living around the sinkhole. Wuji and Yingyi went all the way, and they didn't see a few tribes.
To the south of the sinkhole, it seems to be a desert, a forbidden area for people, but a paradise for animals.
In this vast land, Wuji saw countless strange creatures, if it weren't for the fact that Ying Yiran was already a fifth-order Red Flame Beast in the Xuan Realm, with great strength, those creatures smelled of danger, and avoided them from afar, whether Wuji could come out alive was really a doubt.
Now, seeing the sinkhole again and seeing this picturesque scenery, Mowgli let out a long sigh. "They're all gone. β
"They just went back and could see each other again. "Ying is also very sad. "But the gentleman never came back. β
"Who said that?" Wuji patted the piece of spirit turtle belly armor on his back. "You swallowed Sir's Nedan, and Mr. has always been with you. β
"Don't forget, you've inherited the wisdom of your husband. Ying Yiran glanced at Wuji and said dissatisfiedly.
Wuji smiled: "Maybe, but I can't remember, his memory is too scattered, I only remember some fragments, unlike you, who continued his cultivation completely." Therefore, you are the true heir to his mantle. β
"You ......" Ying also turned around, ignoring him.
Along the way, whether she wanted to inherit her husband's will and save the Great Qin Empire at any cost, Wuji didn't give her a word.
This made her very uneasy and a little angry.
After reading the Book of Heaven, her eyes were opened, and she knew that the Book of Heaven was far more complicated than she imagined, and without Wuji's help, even if she was allowed to return to Zifu Mountain and face the Book of Heaven every day, she might not be able to truly solve the mystery of the Book of Heaven.
Nowadays, the only person who can truly understand the Book of Heaven is Wuji, who has opened his eyes. Only with the mind can we have strong computing power, can we truly understand the mystery of the Book of Heaven, and use the meaning as a needle to transform the wonders of the Book of Heaven into a powerful strength.
Although Mowgli's eyes were just opening and not strong enough, he had already crossed that threshold. This alone has been at the forefront of this world and has taken the lead.
She hopes that Wuji can inherit her husband's legacy and work hard to save the Great Qin Empire. But Mowgli doesn't have such an idea. He had only one wish: to be with her. As for the survival of the empire, he didn't care at all.
This made Ying Yiran very distressed. She also hopes to be with Mowgli, but she knows better that this kind of thing is not up to her. As the seventh princess of the Great Qin Empire, most of her fate was in the hands of her father, the twenty-fourth emperor of the empire.
Of course, she is even more unmotivated and angry. Inheriting the wisdom of a great teacher, but not having the demeanor of a great teacher, what a failure. Shouldn't he, like a great teacher, sacrifice a qiΔ for a noble goal?
Ying Yiran was very depressed and entangled.
The two set up a raft, crossed the sinkhole, and continued to gallop north.
Ten days later, they crossed the chasm and entered the realm of the kingdom of Xiaoyang.
As soon as they entered the country of Xiaoyang, they felt a strange feeling.
The country of Xiaoyang is heavily guarded, as if facing a great enemy. All the roads are controlled by giants, and the forest avenue that leads directly to the north and south is three steps and one post, five steps and one sentry, and no one wants to enter and exit freely. Someone tried to reason with the giant, but the giant obviously didn't like reasoning very much, and either kicked him to the side and imprisoned him, or he was killed and thrown into the woods to feed the wolves.
Seeing a passing merchant kicked to the ground by the giant and trampled into a meat patty, Mowgli couldn't help it and strode over.
Ying Yiran grabbed him. "Mowgli, we can't reveal our identities. β
Mowgli pushed her away. "You can't be exposed, I don't care. If you don't have the ability, or if you don't see it, that's it. Now that I've seen it, and I have the power to save people, how can I sit idly by?"
Ying Yiran stomped his feet and watched Mowgli walk towards the giant, so he had to fly onto the tree and sneak through the canopy, ready to rescue Mowgli at any time.
Mowgli walked to the front of the level, but instead of lining up behind the queue waiting to pass the level, he walked directly to the giant who was checking.
When the passers-by in line saw it, they couldn't help but be a little annoyed. They are all honestly queuing, patiently waiting for the inspection to pass, but this young man wants to cut in line, which is really annoying. They chattered and discussed, but no one dared to jump out and accuse Wuji.
"Where did this little doll come from, there are no rules, don't you know if you come first and then come?"
"What tribe is this boy from, tattered, like a beggar. β
"It's really annoying, it's been annoying enough to delay for so long, I didn't expect to cut in line. β
Their buzzing chatter caught the giant's attention. Seeing that someone didn't listen to the order and didn't line up according to the rules, two giants immediately came up, stood in front of Wuji, shook the weapon in his hand viciously, and motioned Wuji to go back and line up.
Seeing the huge weapon in the giant's hand, passers-by became a little nervous, and involuntarily took two steps back. They hate people like Mowgli, but they know more about the arrogance of the giants, for fear that Mowgli will be poisoned, and even more afraid that they will be injured by mistake.
Wuji stood up and frowned: "Why are you blocking the way?"
A very long-looking giant walked over, pushed away the two giant pawns, looked at Wuji condescendingly, grinned, showed a mouthful of yellow teeth, and the sound was like thunder.
"Hahaha, where did the little guy come from, it's so stupid and cute. Why are you blocking the way, is it necessary for Grandpa to sue you?"
"Grandpa, there's no need. Wuji raised his head, glared at him disdainfully, clasped his hands to his chest, and said slowly: "But it is necessary for the grandson." Grandson, tell Grandpa SΓΉ, why are you blocking the way?"
Passers-by were amazed and looked at Mowgli with a mixture of sympathy and sarcasm. Although this young man is dressed in tatters, he has red lips and white teeth, and he looks good, why does he talk like a madman?
Isn't making such a joke with a giant a joke about your own life?
The Giant Captain was also furious. He widened his eyes, clenched his fists, and was about to give the order to grab Wuji, when suddenly his two knees went limp, and the strength in his body disappeared without a trace, and he could no longer support his heavy body. "Plop" and fell to his knees.
The body nearly two feet tall suddenly knelt down, and there was no cushion at all, and the two big knees knelt straight to the ground, like a mountain of meat suddenly falling to the ground, shaking the ground and dusty.
While raising their hands to cover their mouths and noses, everyone's eyes widened and looked at Wuji in puzzlement.
The two giants were stunned for a moment, then rushed over with a roar, picked up the weapons in their hands, and smashed them at Wuji.
Wuji snorted lightly, raised his hand, and two true qi shot out, hitting the acupuncture point under the giant's knee. The two giants were caught off guard, their legs were weak, and they fell to the ground with a "sigh", and the weapons in their hands flew out and smashed towards Wuji.
Mowgli is motionless. He didn't even have to look with his eyes, he knew that these two weapons couldn't touch him, just by sound positioning.
Under the gaze of countless people, an axe and a mace, whirling and carrying the sound of the wind, flew over less than a foot above Wuji's head and smashed into the giant's face. The wind was fierce, and Mowgli's hair was curled, but Mowgli didn't even blink his eyes.
"Plop, plop!"
A series of sounds rang out, and the two giants were hit by their companions' weapons, smashed their heads and bled out, and fell to the ground with a stumble, falling to the ground. They lay on the ground, struggling hard, but they couldn't get up.
Wuji just quietly looked at the giant who knelt in front of him, and his face was calm.
The giant was as pale as dirt and sweat as rain.
He knelt in front of Wuji and saw the scene just now clearly, whether it was the ease with which Wuji raised his hand to knock down his two subordinates, or the calmness and calmness in the face of two heavy weapons, it was beyond his imagination.
No matter how stupid he is, he knows that his sudden kneeling down is not an accident, but a hand and foot done by Wuji. And his heart was shocked when he was looked at by Wuji, and it was not an inexplicable timidity, but an instinct in the face of great danger.
This fear went straight to the depths of his heart, and he saw the courage he had cultivated over the years of fighting as nothing.
Such a person is definitely a cultivator with a high realm, and he is not something he can resist, and even if his boss knows about it in the future, he will not blame himself.
At the same time of relief, the Giant Commander lowered his head and lay on the ground, kowtowing like pounding garlic.
Passers-by were dumbfounded, and the giants in the distance looked at each other and clenched their weapons tightly, but no one dared to rush up.
Although the giant is lying on the ground and is taller than Wuji, at this moment, no one looks down on Wuji anymore. Not only were the giants panicking, but even the passers-by were nervous, holding their breath involuntarily, for fear of attracting Mowgli's attention.
Three giants, one kneeling in front of Wuji, two five-body lying beside him, Wuji stood lightly, raised a hand, and gently fanned in front of his nose.
"Why are you blocking the way?" he asked faintly.
"Because...... There is going to be a war, so ......"
The giant stammered, tamed as if he saw an adult, and did not dare to resist at all.
From his narration, Wuji knew the recent situation of Xiaoyang Kingdom, and couldn't help frowning.
The purpose of rectifying military affairs, collecting passing merchants, and accumulating money is to fight a war, and it is the main provocation. What worries Wuji even more is that a few days ago, some archers from the Yu Republic and giants from the Fangfeng Country entered the country and forcibly broke through, alarming the king and the national teacher, and were hunted down.
As soon as Wuji heard it, he understood that the Yumin Archer and the Wind Giant in the mouth of the giant must be Lin Ziyi and Wang Wang, who were being chased and killed by the giant, and they were more than lucky.
Wuji didn't dare to delay, threw down the giant, grabbed some dry food, and chased down the route that the giant said.
