Chapter 318: The Kingdom Will Not Be a Country (Supplement)
Chapter 318 The country will not be a country
The next day, Chu Fan did not stop and led the crowd to leave, while Duan Sihan had already left last night and did not say hello to Chu Fan, for fear that this powerful uncle would not agree.
Yue Chong and the fifty-one guards all followed Chu Fan, and they did not directly tear the void and leave, but each rode a horse and galloped away in the direction of the imperial capital.
It is not difficult to bless the power of cultivation on the horses, and with their speed, to reach the imperial capital within five days, but with Yue Chong's physique, it really hurts the horses under the seat.
He has not returned to Xiban for many years, and he does not know much about the situation in this place, so Chu Fan will use a horse to travel, he wants to see with his own eyes whether China is prosperous or declining today.
If it is prosperous, the emperor will be exempted from the death penalty, and if it is weak, the emperor will be removed from the throne and someone else will be elected.
It's just that as soon as he left Nebula City, which was only a thousand miles away, Chu Fan saw a dilapidation, many villages were uninhabited, and even the larger towns were sparsely populated.
"There is no war here, why is this the scene?" The field is desolate, and no one has cultivated it for a long time, Chu Fan said to a guard beside him with doubts.
Fifty-one people, since the battle of Nebula City, decided to follow Chu Fan, but at that time, they did not go to Chu Mansion immediately, but each returned to their homes and arranged everything before returning to Chu Mansion one after another.
From the moment they stepped into the Chu Mansion, they said goodbye to the past, and for decades, they had been staying in the Chu Mansion, silently waiting for Chu Fan to return.
After a long time, they no longer called each other's names, but ranked them according to their cultivation, and the highest one was called Chu Yi, so they were ranked down.
"The Sunset Empire is coming, the Xianyu Empire is watching, Huaxia is facing disintegration, and there are not many generals who really resist and fight the enemy." The one who can follow Chu Fan is naturally Chu Yi, who has reached the realm of transformation into nothingness, "Most of the generals are looking for a way back, but they are all doing it secretly.
Only the Starry Sky City advocated Tao, the most presumptuous and flamboyant, and actually came into contact with the people of the Demon Devouring Gate openly. ”
The Demon Devouring Gate is the first major sect of the Sunset Empire, and the Demon Devouring Gate plays a decisive role in the launch of this battle.
Don't look at Chu Yi and the others who don't leave the Chu family, but they know everything about the world, after all, all kinds of information about the Chu family can't escape their eyes.
"This person is so rampant, the emperor doesn't care?" Chu Fan frowned, for this trip to the imperial capital, he was ready to abolish the throne of Long Shengtian.
The horses galloped on the official road, galloping, kicking up patches of mud and dust, and suddenly, the fire in front of them soared into the sky, as if a village had changed.
"Don't say that the emperor doesn't want to take care of it, even if he wants to take care of it, I'm afraid he won't dare to take care of it." Chu Yi sneered, obviously dissatisfied with the current emperor, "Zhang Tao, as the city lord of Starry Sky City, holds heavy troops and is the overlord of one side, once he rebels, China will be in chaos."
Therefore, many officials and generals can only turn a blind eye to his actions. ”
They were so fast that they rushed far away from each other until they came to a village that was in flames and there were people fleeing.
At a glance, the fire was very red, and the temperature was also very high, and the villagers were running inside, and they could vaguely see that there were many soldiers among them.
It's just that these soldiers are not saving people, but robbing, killing, and burning, and it is obvious that they are the ones who set the fire.
"Help!" Chu Fan did not hesitate, and immediately ordered to save people, he was already dissatisfied with Zhang Tao's approach.
Those who are not loyal to the country will fight with the Reincarnation Hall and the Hades Sea in the future, won't they rebel?
Zhang Tao is so blatantly in contact with the Demon Devouring Gate, even if he does not rebel, in the long run, officials and generals from all over the country will follow suit, and Huaxia will be chaotic because of this, so it is not the best policy to turn a blind eye and close an eye, the best way is to suppress it strongly, remove Zhang Tao from the position of city lord, and seize his military power.
Everyone did not dare to hesitate, and they rose into the air one after another, rushed into the fire, and rescued many villagers.
Such flames really can't hurt them!
Chu Fan dismounted, walked to the edge of the official road, chanted words in his mouth, pinched the trick with both hands, and pointed to the sky suddenly, several runes flew out from his fingertips, and he saw thunder in the air, and dark clouds came.
In a short time, the area was pouring rain and rattling, and the fire in the village was quickly extinguished.
Some villagers were rescued, and there were also people who lost their lives, watching one family after another being destroyed, Chu Fan was on fire in his heart, he hoped that the people around him would be happy, and he also hoped that the creatures in Huaxia and even the entire Immortal Continent would be happy.
It's just that in his heart, the people around him are more important!
The fire was extinguished, the dark clouds dispersed, the black smoke was wafting, and a village that was originally good was turned into ruins in a short moment, looking at this scene, Chu Fan felt an inexplicable sadness in his heart.
It seems that this scene will be infinitely magnified in the future, and it will be a true portrayal of the entire Fairy Spirit Continent.
Yue Chong, Chu Yi and others took the rescued villagers to the official road, and they were brought along with dozens of soldiers, looking at the armor they were wearing, they knew that they were soldiers of the Chinese Empire.
"Thank you, thank you!"
The villagers thanked Yue Chong, Chu Yi and others again and again, tears welled up in their eyes, they were able to escape death, and in addition to excitement and gratitude, they couldn't help but be full of anger at the dozens of soldiers.
Ahead was a village that had been burned by the fire, black smoke was filled, wooden stakes had collapsed, rubble was gone, very dilapidated, and there was still bright red blood on the ground, and at this moment, it looked like a gloomy wasteland.
Chu Fan stepped forward, hugged an old man, and asked with a smile, "Old man, why did your village suffer this robbery?" ”
"Alas......" the old man shook his head and sighed bitterly, "the country will not be a country, the soldiers will not be soldiers, our village, where can it still be intact." ”
On the side, a strong man walked up, looked Chu Fan up and down, and then said: "We have calculated it here, at least there are still people who survive, some villages were directly trampled by the army, and no one can live."
The main thing is that these soldiers are still the soldiers of my Huaxia Empire, and before the enemy came, they began to loot and kill, just to give themselves a little more outside of their bodies so that they could flee elsewhere. ”
After listening to the strong man's words, Chu Yi and the others were very angry in their hearts, they had also been soldiers, and they couldn't help but feel ashamed of what these soldiers had done.
Now, the flames of war are everywhere, the smoke of gunpowder is filled, such things are constantly being staged, Chu Fan has only helplessness in his heart, even he can't control it, he can only do his best.
"You quickly let me go, otherwise after Lord Zhang knows about this, he will definitely let you live rather than die." There was a centurion among the dozens of people, and he could see at a glance that Chu Fan was the leader, and the corners of his mouth outlined a curvature, and he said coldly and threateningly.
"Uncle, you can go, if you can, go to Nebula City, it's safe there." After taking a deep look at the old man and the grizzled villagers, Chu Fan turned around and walked towards the centurion who spoke.
Seeing Chu Fan coming, the centurion's expression became even more arrogant, but everyone noticed that he didn't dare to look at Chu Fan directly, his eyes seemed to be dodging.
"Tell me, why do you do this?" Walking in front of the centurion, Chu Fan's eyes were very cold, and his face was like frost.
