Chapter 368: The Salvation of Ordinary People

Liao Yi is a casual cultivator, and his cultivation in the late stage of Qi cultivation and the profession of a talisman master make him quite nourishing at the bottom.

Human happiness is contrasted.

Naturally, he can't compare to those foundation-building monks, let alone real people and true monarchs, they are all characters in the sky.

But compared to the old monks who live on the same street, lose their children in middle age, and risk their lives to fight for their lives for the sake of their little grandson's cultivation; The young man whose whole family borrowed money to practice, but failed to be selected as a disciple of the gym for three consecutive years; With a dream, I want to go to the city to learn art, but I can't pay the rent and was kicked out by the landlord, so I can only sleep in the countryside on the street for minor repairs, and in order to make ends meet, I have to take the initiative to accept the widow neighbor next door who is helped by men from time to time......

He has no wife and children, but he has a small amount of savings, and he has his own house in the city, and he can help his next-door neighbors from time to time, so he is naturally happy.

But that day, everything changed.

Countless demon beasts poured in from all directions, the city wall was as vulnerable as tofu scum, indestructible, and it was said that the protective array that could resist the Yuanying True Monarch only lasted three breaths before it was torn apart, and then ...... No one came out to resist.

Later, he learned that those high-ranking people in the city had already received news of the beast tide.

But they blocked it all.

So they ran away, and the bottom layer like themselves was left behind as the rations of the demon beasts to delay the time of the beast tide.

He had survived for decades, and his home, which he thought he would live for the rest of his life, was destroyed in an instant.

The widow next door, who was still with him yesterday and cautiously asked him if he wanted to live with him, rushed out to look for him, and was thrown to the ground by a monster that jumped out of the corner, and he could even clearly see the beast's big open mouth, the snake-like tongue.

He breathed for a moment, and then like crazy, he took out a second-order talisman that was originally used to save his life, and blasted the demon beast to the slag with a reaction speed faster than that of the eighteen-year-old, and then pulled up the widow who had been slightly injured and joined the fleeing team.

But where to escape?

Seeing that the large group was dwindling, he finally decided to leave the group and returned to the place where he had lived with the widow.

At home, he dug a tunnel to connect his house with the next door.

I dug it up to meet with the widow secretly.

The tunnel is very deep, so you don't notice the slightest movement from above.

If you add the breath charm, it is enough to block the perception of the second-order demon beast.

As for the higher-level demon beasts, they probably wouldn't be interested in ants like them.

In this way, he gradually transformed the tunnel into a basement, day and night, hiding from the monsters wandering in the city, and the ants moved the things in the original above-ground room into the ground with storage bags little by little.

The original lonely life, with the company of a widow, actually seems quite delicious.

Again, happiness is contrasting.

Compared to the neighbors who lost their lives, the two of them are at least still alive.

To live is to have hope.

And he was married to the widow, in the dimly lit basement, in front of a half-burned red candle, and simply worshipped the church.

The widow, a woman named Nian Xiu, became his wife, the other half of his life.

Originally, he thought that he was just greedy for the other party's body, but when Nianxiu almost died in the mouth of the demon beast, he understood his intentions.

There are some things that can only be understood when they are lost.

In the blink of an eye, they have been living in the basement for more than two years.

Liao Yi found that he could hardly remember what the sky looked like during the day, as if it was born black, everything was drowsy, and there was not much vitality.

this day.

Liao Yi returned to the basement with the food he had collected.

As usual, Nianxiu stood guard at the door, holding an oil lamp in her hand, making her shadow look illusory and huge behind the wall.

"You're pregnant now, you need to rest more, don't wait for me next time."

Liao Yi took the oil lamp from Nianxiu's hand, walked down the aisle, and walked hand in hand to the inner room.

The originally straight tunnel was widened day by day, and there were bedrooms, grain storage rooms, utility rooms, talisman rooms, kitchens, thatched houses and other rooms with different functions.

"I'm not a weak woman, don't forget, I'm also cultivated."

Nian Xiu glanced at Liao Yi.

Liao Yi muttered: "What kind of cultivation is the third layer of Qi cultivation. ”

But when Nianxiu's hand touched his waist, he hurriedly changed his words:

"The stars are beautiful tonight, I'll take you up later."

In today's living environment, even going out to see the sky is a luxury.

But Nianxiu was not as excited as before, but suddenly touched her slightly round belly and said:

"First brother, the child kicked me today."

Liao's face was overjoyed: "Really? This little guy is still restless in his stomach, wait for two days, I will go to find some delicious food for you two, today when I visited Aunt Wang's house, I saw a few small tomatoes planted in her backyard almost ripe.

And Uncle Niu's house, I'm going to touch if the demon chicken laid eggs again last time, and there is still ......"

He talked about the nearby resource points like a treasure.

But seeing that Nianxiu was still frowning, he also stopped and asked:

"What's wrong with you today?"

Nianxiu asked softly, "Are we really going to give birth to a child?" Even we don't know how long we'll live, and every time you go out, I'm scared that you'll never come back.

I'm really scared that one day we will be gone, but the child has not grown up yet.

I'm even more afraid that the child will get used to living underground and hide like a mouse.

We are human beings, people who can enjoy the sun and rain in the open.

But now that we are used to this dark world, our children should not live like this. ”

She burst into tears and fell into a meltdown.

Liao Yi hugged Nianxiu tightly, his face full of distress.

From time to time, he had to go to the ground to find food, so he could still enjoy the free air and look at the endless starry sky.

Although there will be dangers, his world is vast and free.

But Nianxiu has to wait underground day and night, staying in this oppressive and small space, especially after she is pregnant, and the number of times she goes out to wind has plummeted.

"It's okay, it's okay, we'll be back on earth soon. When the child is born, we will definitely be able to give him a normal life. ”

"Really?"

Nianxiu's eyes lit up.

"Really, it's all true."

Liao Yi said with a wistful face: "Recently, I have gone out to meet fewer and fewer demon beasts, it seems that they are planning to migrate away, and when they are gone, we will return to the ground, and everyone will come back then."

We're going to live the same life we used to live. ”

Nianxiu's mood slowly stabilized and apologized:

"I'm sorry, brother, I don't know what's wrong today."

Liao Yi hugged his wife's body and gently patted her back, and his mood was very stable.

"I don't blame you, if it weren't for you in the past few years, I might have lived a wild life, or one day I couldn't bear to rush into the demon beast group and die. It was you and the child who gave me hope.

It's me who is too selfish to want a child and want to have a child with you.

I brought him into this world, and I have to take care of him and you. ”

The two hugged each other quietly, in the quiet underground world.

Until a loud bang woke them up.

Ever since they were out in the night, they had become accustomed to resting during the day.

"What happened?"

Nianxiu held her husband's hand tightly.

The loud noise rang out so loudly that even they could clearly perceive it deep underground.

"It's okay, I'll listen to the movement later, I'll go out and take a look, probably which demon king has crossed the border again."

Liao Yi comforted his wife.

But from the trembling bodies of both of them, it can be seen that they are not calm.

"Wait a minute, I really want to hear someone talking?"

Nian Xiuhu's face was happy.

"Someone is really talking."

Liao Yi held his wife down and said, "Don't move, I'll listen to what I'm saying." ”

He stood up, took a bamboo tube from his storage bag and stuck it to the ceiling, and listened to it.

After a while.

Seeing that her husband was slow to speak, Nian Xiu hurriedly asked:

"What's wrong? Is there someone talking outside? ”

As soon as Liao turned his head, his eyes were already red, and tears were swirling in his eyes.

"Xiu'er, we can go back to the ground! Someone came to our rescue! ”

He wiped his tears, took a deep breath, suppressed his excitement, and said in a deep voice:

"You wait first, I'll go out and have a look now."

Nianxiu's face was overjoyed: "Go up now?" ”

Liao Yi nodded heavily: "This is our only chance, for you and the child." ”

Liao Yi didn't procrastinate, and crawled out of the basement directly, carefully poking his head out.

The strong sunlight made his eyes a little uncomfortable, but fortunately, his cultivation was good, and he quickly adapted to it.

Then I saw two suns in the sky.

There was also the light on the sky that made his heart tremble, and from time to time a spiritual light fell, and the demon beast that had made him tremble turned into charcoal and pieces under the spiritual light, and he had no power to resist.

"By the order of the Venerable Great Love, restore the territory of my human race! The demons retreat! Those who do not retreat die! ”

As the slogan sounded over and over again.

Liao Yi was surprised to find that he and his wife were not the only people alive in the city, and from time to time there were scattered people emerging from the corners, they looked at the light in the sky, knowing that the great monks in the sky could not hear, but they still shouted over and over again and shook their hands.

It was as if the whole city was filled with human voices.

Loose cultivation is like weeds, even if it grows in the cracks of stones, it will still absorb meager nutrients and survive.

Liao Yi climbed onto the roof, stood on top of the ruins, felt the sun kissing his skin, closed his eyes, and the boiling voices in his ears seemed to bring him back to the lively past.

It is also from today that he has firmly remembered a name - the Venerable Great Love!

It was this person who gave them new life and hope.

This scene happened in all the fallen demon beast areas.

Only when you have lost can you understand the beauty of the ordinary.
