Chapter Seventy-Five: A Contract

Fei Wei didn't understand Kong Zhang's controversial words, but the habit she had developed over thousands of years reminded her that it was never advisable to be rash.

Non-toxic and unhurried to put on clothes, wipe the blood from the corners of his mouth, and there is a man's clothes around him.

Looking around, Kong Zhang didn't see anyone, and couldn't help frowning slightly.

Dressed neatly, Non-Poison did not rush to tear off the part where the soles of his feet connected to the peach tree, but sat down slowly, smiling, "Have you ever brought sacrifices?" ”

Kong Zhang nodded, "If you're talking about this kind of black thing, I'll bring it." ”

After taking a look at it and making sure that there was no problem with the orc core, he said arrogantly, "You can put forward your wish." ”

Non-poisonous swiped his fingertips across his body with a slight hint, "Any wish is fine, whether it is immortality, whether you want to be a supreme minister, or if you want to be a powerful and blessed emperor in the world, you can do it." ”

Kong Zhang laughed, "This ...... Immortals, I don't know what kind of secular dynasty your world is, but the word emperor is a thing of the past for us. ”

was refuted and was not angry, only the betrayal of 'herself' that could make her angry, she said calmly: "Does this word really expire?" ”

"As far as I know, power is concentrated in one person, no different from the emperor, but for the sake of sounding good, he changed his title, isn't he also the emperor?"

Kong Zhang shrugged, his hands around his chest, always keeping a safe distance from this immortal, the farmers who were still working around him were not in his consideration, the wind blew through the tip of the wheat field, and the sound continued to sound, very comfortable.

Kong Zhang praised: "This place is known as the Peach Blossom Spring, and it is a good place to escape from the world." ”

"But I have a question."

Kong Zhang raised his steps and slowly circled around the peach tree and the immortals, the loose soil kept leaving his footprints, but they were smoothed by the breeze, "Do you know about the war in the outside world?" ”

"Of course you know."

"Immortals don't care about human affairs?"

Non-toxic was silent for a moment, his smile unchanged, "I don't care about human affairs." ”

"Oh......" Kong Zhang stretched out his voice, this man who was gentle in both speech and movement, in fact, was already dissatisfied to the extreme, he was a staunch humanist, he never believed that beasts should live on earth, and he only tried to find out what the attitude of this 'immortal' towards humans was.

This conversation also strengthened his conviction.

Kong Zhang smiled: "Then why did you accept human sacrifices? ”

Kong Zhang shook the black liquid in the bucket, which Jiang Qiu had specially buried and left for him, and attached a description, "Do you need this thing?" ”

Kong Zhang pondered for a moment, "I'll guess if you need this kind of thing to maintain a certain form...... Or recovering from your injuries? ”

Non-poisonous shook his head slightly, but from a distance, several monsters with human legs and bodies came from the wheat field, and the toiling farmer silently stopped what he was doing and stood quietly, as if he had become a scarecrow in the wheat field.

Kong Zhang spread his hands, "Look, you don't have any patience at all, besides, I came here to sacrifice to you, and I haven't made my request yet." ”

Non-poisonous glanced at him deeply, and a plum blossom fell on the peach tree, delicate and blooming, which should symbolize life, but it made Kong Zhang feel a sense of crisis in his heart, and continued: "I want to know the gathering point of the orcs, this request is not too much, right?" ”

Non-poisonous looked at a giant across it, the hand holding the peach blossom slowly put it down, a hint of brilliance flashed in her eyes, and her red and tender mouth spit out two words, "Know your fate." ”

Kong Zhang put the black liquid gathered from the orc's core on his foot, and walked backwards, "Thank you, our deal is complete. ”

Non-toxic was silent for a long time, and slowly spoke, "What a nasty guy." ”

"Attack me."

I don't know who the order was given, and I don't know why Non-Poison gave such an order, but the Peach Blossom Paradise was established by Non-Poison, and every flower, grass and tree here will obey her orders, and several tall guards did not hesitate or even vented their attacks with a little joy and unreservedness.

Hundreds of thin pieces of ice fell above Non-Poison's head, a huge long sword appeared out of thin air and slashed down, the autumn leaves in the sky were like the sharpest blades, every move was a killing move, but all the attacks stayed at a distance of only one meter away from Non-Poison, unable to advance a single cent.

The ripples swirled over the wheat field, blowing the full wheat into a strange shape, the wind gradually rose, and the aftermath was especially visible in the wheat field, as the wind slowly fluctuated, Non-Toxic looked at the scattered male clothes on the side, and said calmly: "Stinky lungs, I have eaten your ability, and then I will find someone else, whether it is fate, life or death, it has nothing to do with you, let me bear it." ”

The Peach Blossom Garden is very large and beautiful, but there is no longer an uncle who drinks silently and listens to his own flower appreciation and complains about drunkenness, the same is the soul, has been born together for thousands of years, and has lived in seclusion with each other in the Peach Blossom Land for more than 20 years, and the feelings of non-toxic to stinky lungs are complicated.

But now she is a little lonely, but she doesn't regret it.

Humans maintain an attitude of hatred towards beasts, but so do beasts.

Non-poisonous smiled at the farmers and guards living in the Peach Blossom Spring, but they gently moved the peach blossoms, and all the guards fell silently. The farmer in the wheat field is changing rapidly, but the body shape of a normal human is distorted, the upper body gradually becomes the appearance of a flower, and the lower body is still human.

Non-poisonous touched the peach tree obsessively, and muttered, "Wait, soon we can all go out." ”

......

The years will not be delayed by anyone, and the waterway between the Thousand Islands Plain is like a historical monument, recording the big and small stories that happened in the past twenty years, since the formation was activated, the Thousand Islands Plain has been blocked, and the people who live here want to be enveloped by a towering giant peak.

Zhaoyao Peak is a strange place, and Guanyin Buddha Island is also a strange place.

Here, life and death, water and fire, cold and heat are almost opposites, and occasionally wild beasts can be seen violently, and the place where the hot and cold wind meets is no longer inhabited.

Kong Zhang walked silently between heaven and earth, the ordinary school clothes of Mingde Academy on his body were as straight as a smooth cliff, completely unaffected by the strange wind, and the seemingly ordinary knee-raising steps did have to walk out of more than ten zhang in a moment, and his footsteps fell on the soft sand without leaving the slightest trace, fluttering like an immortal.

After he left Zhaoyao Peak, he felt that Zhaoyao Peak burst out of a shocking momentum, but it dissipated extremely quickly, and when it hit him, Kong Zhang glanced back expressionlessly, but he didn't have the idea of going over to take a look.

As the most famous genius of Mingde Academy, Kong Zhang seems to be a natural cultivator, from the first day of his practice, he knows very well what he wants and how to practice, and he even knows what kind of story is hidden behind the missing students in Tianyang City before Jiang Qiu.

It's just that he's not interested, and he, who already knows the way, has long since abandoned the temptation of external things, and won't let lust take over his reason.

He had competed with Jiang Qiu, but he lost once, even if he was not convinced, he had to admit defeat, and his appearance here depended more on his own wishes.

At the beginning, Xusheng University would send students to the Thousand Islands Plain every year, and Mingde University also had such an idea, but Kong Zhang refused.

As a humanist, Kong Zhang thought that he could talk to humans kindly, and even bow down to Jiang Qiu to admit defeat, but he was unwilling to let beasts live where humans belonged.

For this reason, he was willing to cooperate with Jiang Qiu, and he also had a competitive mind, as if he wanted to prove that he could contribute more in the face of war.

Use the research of human cluster consciousness to control more people to their use, increase their strength, and expand an army of their own, so as to help relieve the pressure on Shattered Slope City.

Kong Zhang summoned a crow, tied a letter to his leg, watched the crow fly into the distance, and laughed softly: "I will walk the road you have walked, meet the people you have seen, and then run the same line, I don't believe that I will lose to you again." ”

"They are all geniuses, who doesn't have a little pride of their own?"

Behind him, unconsciously followed a large number of beasts that were affected by the nightmare technique and controlled by the collective consciousness.

Each beast is the embodiment of Kong Zhang, a part of his technique, and one of the nourishments for his promotion.

......

......

Leaving Shattered Slope City and heading west, the team was strange, but peaceful.

After walking for about a day, a crow flew back with a letter, Jiang Qiu opened it and checked it, made a decision in his heart, walked up to Min, and asked with a smile, "Do you know where Zhimei Island is?" ”

Min nodded, "Yes." ”

"Where?"

"Although the Thousand Islands Plain is broken, it also has a certain division of forces, and the northwest is largely ruled by orcs, but on the surface, humans are in charge, but they are all puppets, so be careful." Min kindly reminded: "The northeast is the direction of the palace, the test site, and I don't know who can control those soldiers." ”

"The biggest force of the human race is Broken Slope City, which represents Hua Shaoguo and Tianyang City to deter the Thousand Islands Plain, and it is also the place where our orcs haunt."

Jiang Qiu looked up at the giant formation that almost enveloped the Thousand Island Plain, "So the formation just blocked Tianyang City and Hua Shaoguo, making Broken Slope City, which should have had backup, a lonely city, right?" ”

Min didn't answer, but inadvertently saw a peach talisman hanging from Jiang Qiu's waist, the material was very ordinary, but the symbols outlined on it made him remember it deeply, and he couldn't help but be stunned for a moment.

However, this small action did not escape Jiang Qiu's eyes, but Jiang Qiu deliberately pretended not to see it.

After walking for a day, several people didn't feel tired, Qingjiu looked around and asked, "Where are we going?" ”

"Children's Island."

"What's that?"

"Oh, I made my own name, just because there was a school up there and there were a lot of children living in it, so I named it like that."

......

The children's island is not big, a school occupies almost all the places, leaving only a vegetable patch outside, and a small tent is set up next to a well, and when you look over, you can see a few watermelons in the well, which must be very thirst-quenching.

The school was safe and there was not the slightest repercussion of the war.

The corpse dog was washing the children's clothes, and when he saw Jiang Qiu and a few people coming, he was not polite, and threw a stack of clothes to Jiang Qiu with a smile, and then went to the island next to him to cut a large basket of aquatic plants and put them in front of Min, signaling him to let go and eat, and take care of enough.

It's a pity that after Min followed Jiang Qiu, he had to eat fish and drink fish soup for almost every meal, basically he ate whatever Jiang Qiu ate, and his taste had been raised, not to mention that Min was a second-level beast, known as a strong man in the truth-seeking realm, how could he eat grass.

The corpse dog smiled and patted Min's horns, "Eat enough, such a big lump of beef can make my children eat enough." ”

The corpse dog frowned suddenly, and began to think about the feasibility of one thing, "I heard that your healing ability is outstanding, or you stay, I promise to cut off only one of your legs a day, so that it is not bad to eat beef forever." ”

Jiang Qiu scrubbed his clothes vigorously and did not dislike it, and when he heard the idea that the corpse dog was the same as himself, he gave a thumbs up and praised: "Big sister and I have the same idea." ”

The corpse dog laughed and cursed.

After washing clothes and eating, Jiang Qiu also did not rush to explain his intentions, but followed a few classes, and even stayed here as a teacher for a day, until Qingjiu began to urge to find the corpse dog in the office and explain his intention.

"Corpse dog, I once saw this name on a cliff carving, and at the same time, there are only four words to ask the heart, so I hope that in the next war, you can choose to help the human race, help us, instead of favoring those bone soldiers, how about it?"

It is difficult for a strong man to make an orc biased towards a human, and the corpse dog pointed his finger on the desk and made a clicking sound, "You should know that I am a beast." ”

"I know."

"I am one of the seven."

"Hmm."

"Me and the Shadow Magician...... The last Shadow Artist had a vendetta. ”

"I'm going to let you beat you up and get angry?"

Unlike Kong Zhang, who was almost straightforward and revealed the voice of the bored orcs, Jiang Qiu was more like a scheming businessman who talked about people and talked nonsense, and he came over cheekily and blinked obediently, "Big sister corpse dog, if you can help us, you can beat you up once a day, as long as it doesn't affect my plan, you can spank or slap your face at will, how about it?" ”

The corpse dog's eyes were a little confused, her memory of the shadow magician was still stuck in twenty years ago, the lonely and thin but always standing figure, in front of the seven majestic beast directors, never retreated, and fought with them upside down, no matter what the original intention, but the result was indeed beneficial to mankind, even if the original intention of the shadow magician was just to survive, the impact caused by it indirectly benefited mankind.

This is a great man.

And the young man in front of him who licked his smiling face and stretched out, as if he was waiting for himself to give him a slap, was completely different from the shadow magician, but he didn't make the corpse dog angry, nor did he hate the house and Wu, or he was angry and didn't fight for his unfortunate sorrow, but he just felt that the times had changed, and God was really unfair, but it was the fairest.

The corpse dog looked at the sky through the window, "Jiang Qiu, do you believe in fate?" ”

Philosophical questions were not the direction that Jiang Qiu was good at, but he could hear the loneliness in the corpse dog's words and the helplessness of the predetermined fate, and said softly: "I originally didn't believe it, I once avoided, I once evaded the responsibility of a shadow artist, I didn't practice, I was too lazy to practice, but now I regret why I don't practice everywhere." ”

"So I don't know what your fate is, but I think you have regretted it in the past, but whether you regret it now depends on your decision now."

The corpse dog was silent for a long time, and when he saw the window, the white-haired Wang Sun also looked up at the sky in a daze, with a little more smile in his eyes, and he didn't seem to have any regrets, and shook his head firmly and decisively, "I'm sorry, I already have my destiny, and I can't be biased towards humans." ”

Jiang Qiu was a little disappointed, but thinking of the hundreds of children on the island, this little emotion quickly dissipated, and he had an indescribable tolerance for the children, "Then please protect the children." ”

The corpse dog smiled: "Xiaodou said that he misses you very much." ”

Jiang Qiu was a little helpless, "I tell her stories every day to coax her to sleep, and I also cook for her." ”

"So that's your skill?" The corpse dog pondered, "Very popular with children? ”

Jiang Qiu pouted, "You just say that I'm naΓ―ve and can play with the children." ”

The corpse dog laughed happily, "Don't worry, these children are my children, although I am a beast, but I ...... Love humanity. ”

Suddenly, Dead Dog changed the subject, "I want to ask you for a favor." ”

"What's the busy?" Jiang Qiu asked without hesitation.

The corpse dog smiled strangely, "Is it good not to ask me?" ”

Jiang Qiu shrugged, "Reciprocating, you are willing to be friendly to us humans, and I can represent the human race to be friendly to you." ”

"Oh? Can you represent all of humanity? ”

Jiang Qiu smiled and said: "At least I have virtues that most people don't have, and I also have flaws that most people have, I think it's enough." ”

The corpse dog was stunned, and she didn't come up with any words to refute, and she didn't plan to refute, but pointed to the peach talisman that Jiang Qiu had never picked off from his waist, and said with a smile: "Go to Zhiming Island, maybe you can call a thousand orc troops." ”

Jiang Qiu suddenly smiled and grinned, "Thank you so much." ”

Corpse Dog waved his hand, "The premise is to help me kill some people, if you don't kill them, I won't allow you to go to Zhimei Island, can you do it?" ”

"Please."

"You know what the boatgirl's job is, right?"

Jiang Qiu nodded.

The corpse dog has a flat expression, telling a sad but already old story.

"Many people have no means of livelihood in the Thousand Islands Plain, so they have to become boat girls, doing the most despicable and undignified jobs that they can't even enter the city, which also leads to the birth of these children. Their parents are part human and part ......"

Jiang Qiu's eyes widened in disbelief, "Can this be achieved?" ”

The corpse dog sighed and said with difficulty: "This is not the crux of the problem, the problem is that this makes them communicate with the beast, if it is just a trivial matter in peacetime, but in wartime, at best, it is treason with the enemy." ”

"Therefore, not long ago, a group of hunters passing by saw their 'deal' with the orcs, and did not listen to my persuasion, and killed all the ship's maidens as their own exploits."

The corpse dog said bitterly: "I love human beings, but the deeper I love, the more painful it becomes. ”

The corpse dog turned a very large family portrait, and the person in the middle was a cheerful corpse dog, and she was surrounded by happy children, "These children are willing to call me big sister, I am very happy, but no matter how humble the boat girl is, they are also their biological parents, and there is a blood relationship here." ”

The corpse dog became more and more tired, "After killing that group of hunters, I can only guarantee that at least a thousand orcs will see this peach talisman and are willing to obey your command without reservation." ”

Jiang Qiu also has such a family photo, and everyone is smiling happily.

But the same experience stung Jiang Qiu's heart, which made him silent, even though he had already made a decision in his heart.

Jiang Qiu asked, "What about you?" ”

The corpse dog smiled, "Just wait for death." ”

"What about the kids?"

"I'll send them out before I die."

"What's your world like?"

"It's not good, it's nothing more than standing outside the cage and watching the trapped beasts, and then one day we find that some of the beasts have escaped, and we are forced to enter the cage to survive."

"I don't understand."

"It's best if you don't understand."

Before leaving, Jiang Qiu stood at the gate of the school, looked at the tall but peaceful corpse dog, and asked, "Who is the most critical person who must be killed?" ”

The corpse dog said: "Guan Haonan, if I'm not mistaken, he deserves to die the most." ”

Jiang Qiu said: "Okay, the contract has been completed, and I will definitely abide by it." ”
