"It's dark."

"There should be a lot of mosquitoes by the lake, I wonder if Jinli is still waiting for me."

"Damn, where is the specific location of July Lake!"

Although the map is fully marked, it is not exhaustive, and it cannot be as accurate as the blue star, and even some hills cannot be accurate.

Qi Yuan has now arrived nearby, but it is not yet known where the specific July Lake is.

At this moment, several voices came.

Qi Yuan's eyes lit up: "Someone, can you go and ask?" ”

At this time, around the lakeside, the moonlight falls.

The smell of blood was all over the air.

The two strong men are armed with weapons and are tense.

"Is this the hospitality of your Moon Emperor clan?

We have come all the way from Black Cloud City to come here, and if we want to see your sacrifices, can't we? "It was a one-eyed man who wore an eye patch and looked particularly fierce.

"When the wicked guests come, we naturally have a reason not to see!" On the other side, a man with pure green hair said.

"It seems that you Moon Emperor clan have not yet realized what the price of offending us will be!" The one-eyed man carried a big knife, fierce and vicious.

"The Moon Imperial Clan is not afraid of any threat." The green-haired man spoke.

The two sides are tense and have been arguing with each other, and it seems that they are going to fight at any time.

At this moment, a voice came: "Everyone, stop, may I ask, do you know where July Lake, or July Town, is?" ”

Qi Yuan appeared beside these people, he wore a mask and his voice was sincere.

After he finished speaking, the two parties present who were still scolding and fighting looked at him strangely.

"The place where we are now is on the shores of Lake July." The one-eyed man spoke, his voice thick.

Qi Yuan was stunned when he heard this: "This is July Lake?" ”

Behind the two groups of people is a "lake" the size of a pond.

Isn't the lake very big?

That's too small, right?

What about Jinli?

He swept over, but didn't see where the brocade was?

Did he come by mistake?

"Thank you for informing me." Qi Yuan was a little disappointed and thanked the one-eyed man.

Where is Jinli?

Where is the town of July?

He was ready to leave and wrap the ancient Qi Tsubaki in a circle.

At this time, the one-eyed man stopped him.

"Little brother, don't leave yet, you come to give us a review, who is right and who is wrong!" The one-eyed man had a hideous smile in his eyes.

He suddenly wanted to have some fun.

"I'm sorry, I'm in a hurry, I'm going to July Town, to see an old man." Qi Yuan's mood was down.

"I know where the town of July is, and if you judge which of us is right and who is wrong, I'll tell you." The one-eyed man said.

"You're right!" Qi Yuan didn't hesitate.

When the one-eyed man heard this, he shook his head: "That's not interesting." ”

When Qi Yuan heard this, he had no choice but to forcibly calm himself down and wait here to be a qualified judge.

Seeing this, the green-haired man said to Qi Yuan: "Your Excellency, it's better to leave quickly, the people of the Hundred Cities Alliance are hunting down some loose cultivators." You are here, and you will be implicated. ”

The one-eyed man showed a playful smile: "Why do you Moon Emperor clan like to slander people's innocence so much, you said that I hunted and killed this friend, but there is evidence?" ”

"Do you still need to talk about the notoriety of your Hundred Cities Alliance?"

"In our Hundred Cities Alliance, the father is kind and filial to the son, and the old are dependent, where is the notoriety?

It's your Moon Emperor clan who don't even talk about basic politeness.

We asked to see you for sacrifices, and we turned them away?

Do you want to emulate the kingdom of Daluo? ”

Qi Yuan stood aside, listening with a confused expression.

He simply doesn't know who's right and who's wrong.

Whoever says it seems to have a point.

"Hmph, our Moon Emperor clan will never give in, if you dare to come to the Hundred Cities Alliance, I will kill one person, come a hundred people, I will kill a hundred people!" The green-haired man said indignantly.

Oh no!

Kill a hundred?

Qi Yuan knew who was right and who was wrong.

At this time, the one-eyed man smiled awe-inspiringly: "The three thousand members of the royal family of the Great Luo Kingdom were all slaughtered at the hands of my generation!" ”

When Qi Yuan heard this, he was completely shocked, there was one more fierce here.

He was very anxious, afraid that something would happen again: "I know, they are right, you are wrong!" ”

He pointed to the people of the Hundred Cities Alliance and said they were wrong.

After Qi Yuan finished speaking, he added: "Can you tell me where the town is in July now?" ”

When the one-eyed man heard this, he was stunned for a moment, and then laughed: "You say again that we are wrong? ”

The seven warriors behind him also looked at Qi Yuan, with a look of banter and murderous intent.

Qi Yuan asked, "Where is the town of July?" ”

The one-eyed man laughed, "I've never heard of a July town at all!"

There's no such thing as a July town here, either! ”

The people behind him were laughing.

Seeing this, the green-haired man reminded again: "Your Excellency, hurry up, the Hundred Cities Alliance is not a good person." ”

Qi Yuan turned a deaf ear, he stood quietly in place, his eyes fixed on the one-eyed man: "Are you sure you lied to me?" ”

"No need to be sure, that is, so what?

I don't know what to lift.

A casual cultivator, and dare to show his head, this is looking for death. The one-eyed man said contemptuously.

Qi Yuan took out his sword, and his face became extremely gloomy for the first time: "I hate it when someone lied to me, especially on such an important matter!" ”

If Qi Yuan had been told the wrong address, Qi Yuan might have seen Jinli earlier.

He didn't have much time in the first place.

How he is not angry!

He held his sword and struck with a thunderous force under the stunned eyes of everyone.

"Lie to me, you should be killed!"

His speed was so fast that no one in the audience reacted at all, not even an afterimage, and a neat cut appeared on their necks.

When the tip of Qi Yuan's sword pressed against the neck of the one-eyed man, the blood on the necks of the eight people behind him spurted out at the same time, which was particularly spectacular, and then the thud of his body falling to the ground was heard.

"You really don't know about July Town?" The tip of Qi Yuan's sword pushed forward, pressing the one-eyed man's Adam's apple inward, and blood flowed.

The one-eyed man didn't dare to speak at all.

"Die!"

A sword pierced through the place of the Adam's apple, and Qi Yuan's body was full of evil energy.

For some reason, the clothes on his body slowly changed color at this moment, as if they were stained red with blood.

Killing eight people with one sword, Qi Yuan was like killing an insect.

Seeing this, the green-haired man flashed a look of shock in his eyes, as well as deep vigilance.

"Are you looking for someone?" He asked tentatively.

"Well, I want to go to the Moon Emperor Country, the town of July, and I have a friend who said that she was waiting for me there." Qi Yuan's tone was a little lost and frustrated.

This is in strong contrast to the quick killing of eight people just now.

"But I can't find the Moon Emperor Country, and I can't find the July Town, obviously ...... It's right next to the Kogi Tsubaki tree, right under the Kogi Tsubaki tree. ”

Qi Yuan was holding the sword, his eyes were cold, and he couldn't wait to split the ancient Qi Tsubaki wood with a sword.

When the green-haired man heard this, he looked thoughtful.

"Of all the kingdoms and cities next to the ancient Qi Tsubaki tree, it seems that only our Moon Emperor clan is the only one who matches what Your Excellency said.

I don't know if your friend said it wrong, or if it was some other misunderstanding.

Or, in fact, it is July Lake, next to July Lake, there is also a branch of our Moon Emperor family, similar to a small town.

Your Excellency might as well stay in our Moon Emperor clan and tell me the information about the person you are looking for, and I will help you find it. ”

When Qi Yuan heard this, he glanced at these people coldly: "You won't lie to me, right?" ”

He raised his hand and wiped his fingers on the blade of his sword, wiping the blood off it.

The blood in the one-eyed man's neck was still stained on the sword.

When the green-haired man heard this, he shuddered inexplicably in his heart.

"Naturally, I won't deceive Your Excellency, of course, we of the Moon Emperor clan don't dare to guarantee that we will definitely help Your Excellency find that old friend!" The green-haired man said.

The reason why he did this was because he took a fancy to Qi Yuan's strength.

Now, under the siege of the Hundred Cities Alliance, the Moon Emperor clan is struggling to support it, and if they can have one more ally, they will have one more ally.

"Okay." When Qi Yuan heard this, there was no better way in his heart.

The Moon Emperor might be able to get more useful information here.

At this time, the green-haired man said, "Now that our Moon Emperor clan is under siege by the Hundred Cities Alliance, Your Excellency is here, and you may be implicated. ”

"Nothing." Qi Yuan said.

He doesn't care about all this, as long as he can see Jinli.

"Dare to ask your lord to tell us the information of the person you are looking for, and what he looks like." The green-haired man had a very low attitude.

"Her name is Jinli, she is the Empress of Nanqian, and her appearance is ...... I don't know, but it should be beautiful, she is not very old, and when the snow falls all over the ancient Qi Tsubaki, it is when she is in her twenty-ninth year. ”

Note: Mochizuki Continent, female eighteen is an adult.

The green-haired man silently jotted down the information.

He said, "Is that woman waiting for you in the town of July?" ”

"Yes." Qi Yuan said.

"Can you tell me your name?" The green-haired man looked at Qi Yuan, "We can spread the word about this, and if she knows that Your Excellency is looking for her, she may come here too." ”

"Qi Yuan." Qi Yuan said.

"Good!" The green-haired man remembered this information, "Your Excellency might as well follow us back to the Moon Emperor clan." ”

Qi Yuan glanced at Qiyue Lake, and then at Gu Qi Tsubaki: "No, I'll wait here, if there is no news after half a month, I will leave." ”

After Qi Yuan finished speaking, he slowly walked towards the lake.

He found a piece of bluestone and sat there, looking at the turquoise water and being stunned.

The green-haired man glanced at the clansmen of the Moon Emperor clan and silently disposed of the corpses of those warriors of the Hundred Cities Alliance on the ground.

They retreated silently.

Qi Yuan sat alone by the lake, holding the sword in his arms, the moonlight fell on his shoulder, he looked at the lake, not knowing what he was thinking.

……

"Killing nine martial artists with one sword, including one emperor-level powerhouse and eight king-level, he should be a supreme emperor."

The girl was dressed in green, she was the Moon Emperor clan, the July branch, the apprentice of the sacrifice Leng Yue.

The sacrifice made an appointment with an old man, and here Leng Yue presided over the event.

She stood on the balcony and looked towards the July Lake, and saw a man sitting quietly by the lake.

"Whoever he is looking for, he commands those below to look for him.

A supreme emperor is worthy of our co-optation. Leng Yue commanded.

"Yes." The green-haired man agreed, then stepped back.

Leng Yue stood alone on the platform of the smoke and rain, she looked at the man's back, and couldn't help sighing.

"If I'm not mistaken, the original wedding princess is also waiting for the gods here, right?"

"It's a pity, it's a pity."

"The wedding princess did not wait for the gods, and slept here, leaving only a new wedding princess, but the world ushered in the darkest moment!

Hundred Cities Alliance, evil lackeys, be punished! Leng Yue's little face showed a hint of murderous aura.

When the morning sun fell on the July Lake, the resting bird suddenly flew away from Qi Yuan's shoulder.

The green-haired man hurried over.

"Got news?" Qi Yuan's voice was a little hurried.

"Nope." The green-haired man said, "Regarding the person you are looking for, we have already notified the other branches of the Moon Emperor clan, and if there is any news, we will notify you as soon as possible!" ”

"Thank you." Qi Yuan was a little disappointed.

He was a little dissatisfied.

Why did he disappear after leaving Tianjue?

He was unable to contact Jinli.

Now, Jinli can't contact him, and I can't see him, so I don't know if I'll be worried.

Or do you think he missed the appointment?

Qi Yuan hates being late.

Unless there are special circumstances.

He sat by the lake, and the green-haired man stood for a while, then left the place as well.

As the sun slowly rises, the lakeside is bustling with activity.

There were several young girls carrying bamboo baskets and washing clothes in the lake.

When they saw Qi Yuan, they all looked at it secretly, a little shy and a little afraid.

And in the open space by the lake, there are some children playing there, so it is not lively.

Qi Yuan had been sitting there, like a stake, motionless.

Not far away, a little boy had been secretly looking at Qi Yuan, with a hesitant look on his face.

Eventually, he stepped forward and boldly said, "Faceling, can I call you that?" ”

"Yes." Qi Yuan held the sword and didn't turn his head.

The little boy patted his chest, as if to relieve his tension: "You don't move, I thought you died here." ”

Qi Yuan had no words.

The little boy continued: "What are you doing here? ”

The little boy seemed to be curious about everything.

He was also very bold.

"I'm waiting for someone." Qi Yuan spoke.

When the little boy heard this, he was a little sad: "When I was a child, I waited here every day for my father to come home, and sometimes I would take a wooden stick and write and draw on the ground, and sometimes, late in the day, I would catch some fireflies......"

"When were you a child?" Qi Yuan's attention is very peculiar.

"I'm eight years old now."

"Such a small memory, you still remember."

"It's only been two or three years, and I still remember my dad as he was.

I also carved my father's appearance so that I will remember him for the rest of my life. The little boy happily pulled out a woodcut with a man carved in it, "My father was an engraver, and I will definitely become a great carver!" ”

The little boy's eyes were filled with hope.

At this time, a dirty child ran over: "Ah, do you want to eat sugar gourds?" ”

The child's dirty hand was open, and there were three gray sugar gourds inside.

"Xiaoping, where did you get it?" Ah Yan took a sugar gourd.

"I picked it up." The dirty kid noticed Qi Yuan, "Strange uncle, you can't eat it." ”

He stretched out his hand and looked at Qi Yuan strangely.

Seeing this, Ah Yan couldn't cry or laugh: "He is an adult, he doesn't eat your sugar gourd, it's still so dirty!" ”

At this time, a shout came: "Ah, Xiaoping, come back quickly, eat!" ”

"Uncle Blame, let's go!"

Seeing this, the two little boys fled as quickly as they could.

Silence returned to the lake, and only Qi Yuan sat in place alone.

On the second day, the little boy named Ah Yan came over again, chatted with Qi Yuan for a while, and then ran away.

The apocalyptus said that he would carve a sculpture for Qi Yuan in the future, using the best materials.

Because, Qi Yuan taught him some tricks of carving.

On the third day, Qi Yuan obviously felt that the shore of the lake in July was much more deserted, and the women of the Moon Emperor clan did not come to the lake to do laundry, and those children did not come here to play.

The green-haired man came to see Qi Yuan, and he said that it might not be long before the Hundred Cities Alliance would attack.

They are still looking for Jinli.

At night, Qi Yuan sat alone by the lake.

Suddenly, he got up: "We can't wait any longer. ”

He decided to go around the ancient Qi Tsubaki.

What if, encountered?

It's a pity that he also understands that the probability is very low.

Because it requires unity in time, space, and people.

If you don't have one, you may not see it.

He got up and flew towards Koki Tsubaki.

The thick trunk resembles a mountain peak.

When he was two-thirds of the way through, Qi Yuan stopped.

He saw a terrifying scene.

Ahead, a huge Kogi Tsubaki tree has a towering trunk and branches that hang down like a fishing line falling from the sky.

However...... On the branches, densely packed, are all corpses of a person.

A hundred? A thousand? 10,000?

100,000? Hundreds of thousands?

It's so dense that you can't count it as far as the eye can see.

Under the turquoise branches of the ancient Tsubaki tree, there were countless corpses hanging from it.

white bones, covered in shabby cloth; The desiccated corpse smelled of a fishy dead snake; The newly alive corpse had a serene smile in its eyes......

Qi Yuan was silent.

It was the first time in his life that he had seen the corpses of so many people.

He flew forward, I don't know how long.

As soon as he looked up, he could see the dense feet, the countless corpses.

How many people are this?

What are these people doing wrong?

is hung here.

Qi Yuan was silent, he flew around the main trunk of Guqi Tsubaki, and the powerful martial arts spirit also looked out.

It's a pity that he didn't perceive the woman like brocade at all.

What he saw were corpses hanging under the Kogi Tsubaki wood!

This is purgatory on earth!

The world is not as beautiful as Jinli describes!

"Why can't you find it?"

Qi Yuan was distraught.

He was already flying around the main trunk of the ancient Qi Tsubaki, but he couldn't find it at all.

He was scared, afraid that he really wouldn't see Jinli.

Suddenly, Qi Yuan stopped again.

His pupils shrank, and he saw two familiar corpses.

One was the woman holding the baby outside Kunwu City.

She was hung under the ancient Qi Tsubaki tree, and her expression was the same insensitiveness as Qi Yuan had seen it at the beginning.

The other is the childish child that the woman once held tightly in her arms.

A person who had only been seen for a long time was hanging under this dense Guqi Tsubaki tree.

For some reason, Qi Yuan was inexplicably angry in his heart.

He drew his sword, much like a sword that cut off the ancient Qi Tsubaki.

At this moment, a pleasant female voice came: "Qi Yuan......"

Qi Yuan turned his head suddenly, and under the dissolving moonlight, there was a girl with a long skirt and flowing skirt.

A look of disappointment flashed in Qi Yuan's eyes: "Who are you?" ”

He hadn't seen Jinli, but he knew at a glance that he wasn't Jinli.

"Moon Imperial Family, one of the twelve sacrifices, July."
