Three days later, a team of 100 people was ready to go, this tribute trip was different from the past, there was no huge convoy, and there was no forced conscription, all because there was no need to prepare tribute at all, and some of the exercises written by Chen Qing were more precious than any tribute.

More than 100 people rode two-legged swift dragons to guard on both sides of a sturdy horned dragon, which was specially prepared for Chen Qing by the city lord.

"You can only walk along the main road, don't go down to the mainland, if there is danger, let the guards go on top, you just need to save your life." ”

At the gate of the city, the city lord told several times, then waved goodbye, the horned dragon took heavy steps forward, looked at the vast world outside, and then looked back at the city behind, couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, finally got out of the cage, and took another step towards the pillar of heaven, and also experienced the mood of being a new person at the bottom of the society.

"Master Chen, you can only get to Moyang City in three days, if you need anything on the way, you can just tell you. ”

The team leader rode the speed dragon beast to Chen Qing's side of the car, his attitude was extremely respectful, Chen Qing did not speak, but smiled and hugged his fists. These people are all willing to protect, as long as Chen Qing arrives at the destination, he promises to give each of them a suitable exercise. That's why there were so many applicants that it took three days to select the best to join the team.

Set off early in the morning, rest at sunset, the first day was safe, and Chen Qing didn't see any ferocious dragon beasts. However, as soon as it was dark, the guards lit several lanterns that glowed yellow in the temporary camp, and blindfolded the dragon beasts in the team, which made Chen Qing very curious.

"What is this?"

As he asked, the captain hurriedly said, "Master Qiyu, there are often murderous dragon beasts at night, this is the dragon driving lantern, but it can only keep some dragon beasts that hunt by sight from approaching. ”

With the captain's words, Chen Qing looked around, those team members really looked nervous, all of them were not sleepy and guarded around, seeing that they only set up a tent, Chen Qing took the dry food handed by the captain and got in, and fell asleep when he was full.

"Ah......h

A scream in the middle of the night immediately woke up Chen Qing, and he was just about to go out to check when he saw a guard rush into the tent and crush him to the ground.

"Don't make a sound, there's a group of night owl dragons, and they'll leave as soon as they're full. ”

It was a female guard who suppressed Chen Qing, her breath was heavy and she looked very nervous, and asked her to enter the tent to protect Chen Qing, and the captain also intended to protect her.

There was a strange cry outside, followed by the sound of muscles being torn, and after a long time, the outside world fell silent with the sound of wings fanning.

"The night owl dragon is gone, everyone hurry away. ”

As the captain's words sounded, the female guard who pressed on Chen Qing's body immediately got up, and then the tent was lifted and dismantled, Chen Qing smelled the strong smell of blood and was pulled to sit on the horned dragon beast, the female guard also sat behind and hugged his waist, and the team walked out of more than ten miles in a mess before stopping to rest, Chen Qing understood that this was for fear that the smell of blood would attract other ferocious dragon beasts.

After this incident, the female guard was arranged to sleep with Chen Qing in the tent, but she slept alone.

"What about the casualties?"

Chen Qing asked softly, and the female guard was silent for a while before answering, "Two died, one was injured, and the first Swift Dragon Beast was also eaten." ”

It's only been a day, and it's become like this, which makes Chen Qing feel that the people in this world are in a difficult situation, and he really treats them as living people unconsciously.

As soon as the sky was hazy, the team put away the dragon lantern and continued to set off, Chen Qing also saw the injured man, one thigh was gone, if Chen Qing could still help him before, a muscle pill could make him stand up again, but now he can't help. However, this man was also cheerful, and boasted about how he had escaped with wit, but there was a trace of sadness in his words.

In the middle of the journey, the leader suddenly waved his hand, and the team immediately stopped advancing, and everyone looked nervously ahead, and then the ground began to shake. Chen Qing, who didn't sleep well last night, raised his head and immediately saw a huge monster with a height of more than twenty meters revealing its figure from a distance on the left, striding across the road and walking into the distance.

"That's the remnant dragon beast, the overlord of the earth, fortunately it should be in a good mood, otherwise......"

The words of the female guard sounded in her ears, and Chen Qing sighed helplessly in her heart, that is, a monster of the fairy beast level, but now it has become unattainable, this feeling of powerlessness is really unpleasant.

The next two days were thrilling, the team entered Moyang City safely, the captain went to meet the city lord, when he heard that they were going to pay tribute, the city lord was very enthusiastic, stayed people for a few more days, and also prepared the team to follow them, the two families became one, after all, it was safer.

This team is not as light and simple as Chen Qing's team, pulling more than a dozen carts of valuable goods, and there are dozens of forcibly recruited people, these people are not used to drive cars, but are used as bait when encountering danger, and one by one they are still handcuffed and shackled, and they are driven forward.

Due to the addition of these people, the team slowed down a lot, and on the first day, they encountered a small group of wild speed dragons, and the other captain was also ruthless enough, and directly threw out more than ten people to fill the stomachs of this group of wild speed dragons, and threw out a few more on the second day. Along the way, it's like feeding a dragon beast with a human.

"He can't help it, if the goods are gone, no city will be able to make up the tribute for a while. And one day we will be in the territory of a group of tempest dragons, and we must speed forward. ”

The female guard was afraid that Chen Qing would not like it, so she patiently explained, it can be seen that Chen Qing, who is used to bloody scenes, just nodded, as long as he can get to the capital, he can't care about anything else.

As we walked, the roadside began to become desolate, turning into a world full of sand, with only a few plants growing tenaciously on the ground. Once here, the guards unshackled the peasants and let them ride with some of the guards. At this time, the farmers became very honest one by one, and no longer thought of running away.

Chen Qing originally thought that the team would speed up, but unlike what he thought, the team actually began to rest, and then slowly moved forward as usual, when a whirlwind began to appear in the distance, it suddenly accelerated, and even those big carts were pulled by the horned dragon and began to run wildly.

When the whole team began to run wildly, those whirlwinds began to accelerate as if they were alive, and at this time, several guards with the people were silent, first put a blindfold on the crotch speed dragon, and then rode the speed dragon to those whirlwinds, when it attracted the attention of the whirlwind, turned around and began to run, and threw the people with it while running.

The men screamed and fell to the ground, then got up and began to run around without a purpose, and were soon overtaken by these whirlwinds, followed by a very cruel scene.

The whirlwind wrapped the people, and the wrapped people screamed in despair, the flesh and blood were quickly strangled clean, and after the skeleton without a trace of flesh and blood was thrown out, the whole whirlwind turned blood-red, and then it quieted down.

From beginning to end, Chen Qing only saw the whirlwind, not the dragon beast, but this was the most ferocious thing he had ever seen in this world.

"If you hold on, you're about to run out of the Tempest Dragon's territory. ”

The captain of the team shouted to boost morale, and the people also beat their mounts desperately, but a terrifying scene appeared, a large whirlwind appeared in front of him, and there was a large whirlwind hundreds of meters high, and the whole team immediately stopped advancing.

"Oh no! I've met the Tempest Dragon King!"

The female guard screamed in surprise, Chen Qing turned her head to look, her face was full of fear, and then she pulled Chen Qing off the Horned Dragon Beast.

"Get down on your knees. ”

The words of the female guard came from his ears again, and Chen Qing also saw that everyone else jumped off their mounts and fell to the ground, even those dragon beasts knelt down! Seeing that the horned dragon beast around him was huge even if he fell down, he simply paused in its shadow and peeked.

He was so bold that the others didn't dare to breathe when their faces were close to the ground, and the huge whirlwind swirled and drifted slowly, and disappeared in front of him, turning into a man with a gloomy face and scaly armor.

"When you see this king, you should know the rules, right?"

The two captains who fell to their knees replied in unison, "Yes!"

"You know, why don't you start yet?"

After saying this, the Wind Dragon King turned into a whirlwind and returned to the team, and the two captains took the lead and began to discuss with a bitter face.

"What are the rules?"

Chen Qing asked the female guard curiously, and the female guard's whole body was trembling at this time.

"If you see the Tempest Dragon King, according to the rules, no matter how many people there are, you must leave half of them for the Tempest Dragons to serve as food. ”

With her words, the people in the team had already begun to slaughter the Swift Dragon Beast, and also killed all the remaining people, and someone walked towards Chen Qing with a knife.

"Can't kill him!"

The female guard hurriedly protected Chen Qing behind her and screamed, causing all her companions to rush in.

"Why can't you kill, this situation is the lowest level of killing cultivation. ”

This is indeed the case when the other party takes the words for granted.

"He really can't kill. ”

The captain also opened his mouth at this time, but the captain of Moyang City didn't care about that, and opened his mouth with a gloomy face.

"You've been protecting this waste all the way, I've long been disagreeable, I'm putting my words here, he must die today. ”

This person didn't know the importance of Chen Qing at all, and after speaking, he raised the sword in his hand, but the sword did not fall, and his head was cut off by the captain of Liyang City.

"Protect the master, and smash it for me to kill all Moyang City!"

With his shouting, the people of Liyang City immediately raised their weapons and looked at the people in the surrounding Moyang City, and the scene was immediately chaotic, and they began to kill each other.

"Don't kill it, half of them are dead!"

I don't know who shouted, the tragic fighting scene was quiet, more than half of the people at the scene had fallen in a pool of blood, and a man with a knife in the stomach screamed unwillingly.

"Why didn't he shout earlier!"

After saying this, the man died in a fit of rage, and by this time the Tempest Dragons had already moved out of the way, and the people gathered the weapons and armor of the deceased and continued on their way.

Both teams had casualties, and the casualties in Moyang City were relatively large, but what made Chen Qing strange was that the two teams were still fighting each other like enemies before, but now they began to talk and laugh again, as if nothing had happened, and there was no resentment at all. Then he knew in his heart that this was all because they had seen too much of this kind of scene, and they had long been a little numb, and it had become a habitual thing.

Anything is afraid of numbness, especially this kind of thing, when encountering a strong enemy, he does not dare to resist, he only dares to raise a butcher knife to his kind, Chen Qing feels more and more sad for the people of this world.
