Chapter 151: The Celestial Stars Shine
"Waste, I can't even look at an old man, what are you raising for?" A city defense general has a furious face, and in recent days, people have been rushing out of the city gates, but not all of them are qualified to enter the city. More people are building new homes in the fields around the school, but the defenses on the edge of the big array may not be strong.
"Hurry up and find the people, and kill them on the spot to set an example." The general said with a serious face.
"Kill on the spot? It's not good. A soldier was stunned, he didn't expect the general to be so ruthless.
"In troubled times, we should use heavy codes, otherwise how can the policy be implemented. Spare this old man, and wait for someone else to storm the city gate next time. Is it true that the knife in our hands does not see blood? Immediately execute, this is a military order, no objection. The general said coldly.
"Yes!" A team of men and horses under the general immediately searched the city, and it was not difficult to find an old man who had not cultivated to obvious facial features, but now the school capital was overcrowded, which delayed the progress of the search.
But he said that after the old man ran into the city, he found a random passer-by, and inquired about the location of the civilians.
"Is it in the south of the city?" The old man pulled his legs and ran towards the south of the city, he knew that he would die if he broke the law, and he just wanted to see his grandson again. He was doing business in other places, and his daughter-in-law gave birth to a son, and when he received the news, he immediately rushed to Wuye City. Wuye City is not far from school, but it is not within the scope of the Great Array, and it is also the first city to migrate into the formation. The policy of the eastern kingdom is from near to far, one city to another. Try to let the population move to the area protected by the big array, and only some people can really live in the city, and those outside the formation can only ask for more blessings.
The human race has multiplied so far, and the population is a serious drag at this time, and the safe fertile land within the formation cannot afford such a large number of people at all. According to the calculations of Lei Zun and others, the large array can protect one-third of the population at most, and the other two-thirds of the population can only live outside the formation and ask for more blessings.
This time, the Dire attack was like washing the ground, whether it was a city or a wild village, a large number of Dire attacks, and the number of Dire was like a blowout, innumerable. Villages were destroyed, hundreds of thousands of people died, and cities were destroyed in the hundreds of thousands, if not millions. Under the attack of the huge Dire legion, the resistance of the Terrans is minimal, mainly because of the surprise, no one thought that the Tongming Tower, which has been running for thousands of years without any problems, will one day be ineffective against the Dire, strictly speaking, it is ineffective against a small number of powerful Dire, but they are the attackers, when to attack, where to attack is unpredictable, the Terrans can not organize an effective defense, can only shrink the battle line, and survive under the protection of the ancient array.
Zhan Yue sat on top of the teahouse in the city, looking at the chaos in the city, and was also emotional. It only took a few days for the school capital to become chaotic from prosperity, and countless people will face the pain of separation. According to the decree of the Emperor of the Eastern Kingdom, those old men who did not have the power to awaken the contract became the first group of people to abandon it.
Where the teahouse is located, Zhanyue can clearly see the second statue of the goddess of Tongming. There are two statues of the goddess in the school, one is located in the academy for students to worship, and the other is located in the center of the city for other people to worship. It's just that the Tongming Goddess, who has protected the prosperity of the human race for thousands of years, has no way now.
"Catch him, he ran in the direction of the statue of the goddess!" Several soldiers finally found the old man. He didn't have time to run to the south of the city to see his newborn grandson when he was discovered by the soldiers.
"Don't spare your hands, kill on the spot!" One soldier shouted, these soldiers are all deeds, and there is no lack of long-range means of attack. It's just that because of the distance, the old man was lucky enough to avoid it a few times.
Hearing the words "kill on the spot", the old man's heart fell to the bottom, and he realized how much of a crime he had committed by forcibly breaking into the city gate, and he seemed to be going to be killed as an example.
The old man was very aggrieved in his heart, it was not that he was unwilling to implement the policy, but he knew that staying outside the big array was afraid that he would die, and he just wanted to see his unborn grandson, but why was his last wish so difficult. Although he is an ordinary person, with his ingenuity, he has accumulated a lot of wealth through business, and his life is very comfortable, but he has done nothing and made no mistakes. Why suffer such treatment. Under the tide of the times, any individual effort seems meaningless, even how Lei Zun protects everyone.
Seeing that there was no hope of escape, the old man ran vigorously in the direction of the statue of the goddess.
At this moment, there are actually many people around the statue of the goddess, who are kneeling on the ground and praying with great devotion, hoping that the goddess will appear and shelter their families outside the city.
"Help me stop him!" One of the soldiers shouted to the praying men in front of him: "This man is wanted, help me stop him!" ”
One of them stretched out his hand to pull the old man, but he didn't know why the old man was able to burst out with such strength and shake him off.
"O goddess, I have done good all my life, and I have never done anything evil. Why is there such retribution, please ask the goddess to make the decision for me! The old man knew that if he was caught, he would die, so he had to die Mingzhi, and he actually hit his head on the statue of the goddess and died on the spot.
Everyone around was stunned for a long time before coming back to their senses. Only then did the two soldiers carry the old man's body away, and they had to stand outside the city gate to show the public, as an example.
Zhan Yue only felt another soul in the soul space tremble. He knew that the goddess of Tongming could not avoid what was happening in front of her.
"Sister, you really can't break the game?" Zhan Yue asked.
"There's a way." The goddess replied after a moment's thought.
"Is it because of me?" Zhan Yue asked again.
"Yes. Now that you are exposed to the Dire, even higher than the Holy Maiden, if I leave, your life is not guaranteed. The goddess said truthfully.
"Sure enough, recently I felt that my sister was restless, and she seemed to be very entangled. Sure enough, it's for this reason. Zhan Yue sighed. Although the goddess of Tongming said that she would live a life and live for herself, she didn't want to bear too much, but when the matter came to her, she really couldn't give up.
"Although I brought you back to life. But for thousands of years, it is the power of faith that has kept your soul alive. I don't want to put you in a dilemma because of me. Zhan Yue said lightly.
The goddess of Tongming was shocked, "But what do you do?" You know, if you die, I will die with you. ”
"The Dire don't know this secret, and though they see me as someone to kill, they don't rush it. What's more, today's school has Lei Zun and Jian Zun at the same time, so it's a big deal that I will stay in school all the time and never go out. Moreover, when I advance to the Xuan Sect and refine the clone outside the body, the body hides in the city, and I will not be bored if the clone goes to the outside world. Zhan Yue reassured.
The goddess of Tongming showed her figure in the private room, her eyes were shining, and she looked at Zhanyue deeply. If she doesn't make a move, I'm afraid that the casualties of the human race will be astronomical, but if she does, Zhanyue will not be able to be protected by her from now on, and I am afraid that she can only hide in the school capital and cannot leave.
"Promise my sister, you can't die." The goddess said with a serious face.
Zhan Yue nodded, "I promise you, I won't die so easily. ”
"Retractor." The goddess of Tongming held out a little thumb.
Zhan Yue was stunned, he didn't think that the goddess still had such an innocent side, he smiled and stretched out his hand, hooking the little finger.
"Take care." The goddess of Tongming finally said.
Zhan Yue only felt a gust of fragrant wind passing by, and he was stunned in place, and there was still a trace of soft touch on his forehead.
Before officially leaving, the goddess of Tongming finally revealed her true identity in front of Lei Zun, and there were some things she had to explain to Lei Zun clearly, especially Zhanyue's safety.
Night falls, and every night is a declaration of death for the Terrans. But tonight is destined to be extraordinary.
"Look, what's that?" People all over the world were amazed to see a 'bright moon' slowly rising and shining on the continents. This moment is the real 'world at this time.' Under everyone's attention, the bright moon hung high in the night sky, and the light was reassuring.
Zhan Yue looked at the bright moon and found that his inquiry could no longer be answered, so he knew that the moon was transformed by the goddess of Tongming.
"Celestial Rotation?" All over the world, some well-informed old things all looked at the bright moon with shocked expressions, and seemed to recognize this method. "It's exactly the same as what is recorded in ancient books.,It's the legendary goddess's peerless star reincarnation.。 Isn't she dead? ”
