Volume 3: Immortal Realm Chapter 253: After the Disaster
Whoa!
A figure swept past the mother's jaw, and the young beast was snatched away.
The mother beast roared angrily at the turtle and fish beasts from time to time, and at a certain moment, the child on the chin suddenly disappeared, and the figure shook, but saw an old man kidnapping the child.
The mother beast was terrified, roared and chased after the old man. Hearing the sound here, the rest of the turtle beasts also wanted to look over here, only to see the old man holding the young beast in his arms, standing on top of a higher ruin in the distance, with his clothes fluttering, as if provocative.
The herd stopped pounding on the house, and swarmed towards the old man.
Sawu wasn't fast, of course he wanted the herd to keep up with him. The wounded and unwounded in the ruins saw the beasts departing quickly, and many of them shouted angrily and happily, while others let out cries, accompanied by the walls or roofs that were still collapsing.
Sha Wu quickly brought the young beast back to the Divine Misty Cliff Valley, and he remembered this hatred, he would not just spare these beasts. But now that the castle of the Nightmare Gate has been completely destroyed, he has too much to do, and there is no time to settle accounts with these guys at this time.
This is the biggest disaster that the Nightmare Gate has ever suffered since its inception, and the castle took the Nightmare Gate several generations and more than a hundred years to build. You know, erecting a complex of such magnificence on a swamp is a daunting task and an unimaginable challenge. Although the castle was built on a hill. But the foundation of the hill itself is not very strong on the swamp. Therefore, it took a huge amount of manpower and material resources to strengthen the foundation enough to support the huge superstructure.
These things that have been accumulated through generations of hard work were all destroyed and destroyed by those giant beasts overnight.
Back on the ruins, Sawu stood there, crying without tears.
After the beasts left, the crowd that had withdrawn from the castle gradually returned, and then they were faced with the dilapidated situation of only the last tower left, the entire Black Nightmare Gate was visible in the distance of huge buildings originally a dozen, those small buildings were dozens of them, and now only one large tower was left standing alone, and this tower survived because the foundation was too high, and after the collapse of the surrounding buildings, a large amount of rubble and broken walls were generated, blocking the turtle fish beast.
The crowd kept gathering, wailing, crying, ringing out.
Many people were crushed to death by the collapsed houses. Others were crushed to limbs or half of their bodies, and in the dust, they cried out loudly and quietly for help. So the crowd that escaped the catastrophe began to go around to save people, and the main task at the moment was to save people, as for the corpses lying in the rubble, whether they were crushed to death by the house or crushed by the giant beast, they ignored them for now, after all, the treatment of the injured was their first priority.
In the cold winter, after nightfall, under the heavy night, the lights on the ruins of the castle flickered slightly, and from time to time there were screams and cries. People are still being rescued, and death is happening. Some of the injured may have been rescued, but because they did not receive adequate follow-up care, they still died under the howling of the cold wind. The Nightmare Gate actually had enough medicine to deal with the large number of wounded, but due to the collapse of the storehouse where the medicine was stored, the medicine inside was naturally buried under the rubble.
Fortunately, there is still a tower where people can rest, and although it is a little crowded to live in, it is not much of a problem on winter nights.
This continued until the next day, when Sawu came to count the number of people, and found that more than 20 wounded had died in one night. As the head of a family, Sha Wu couldn't help but cry in the face of this situation. He also stayed awake all night, looking at the wounded who wailed in the cold wind, and his heart was worried. In fact, he had already ordered someone to find someone to rescue him yesterday. However, due to the fact that the Black Nightmare Sect is too arrogant and arrogant on weekdays, they have always looked down on other Jianghu sects, so they are alone after suffering such a catastrophe at this time, they actually don't know who to ask for help in the first place. There is no way, the other sects can't count on it, they can only ask the government for help.
However, because they were quite unfriendly to the government before, and the Meteoric Swamp belonged to the land of three things. Most of the people sent out to ask for help were closed, or prevaricated, or found excuses, or directly refused, in short, they were indifferent. Later, because some of the people who were sent out were still more transparent and flexible, they promised many benefits to the officials, and then finally someone sent a rescue team to rush over, but when they reached the edge of the swamp, the masters fought and retreated, on the grounds that the bridge was broken and impassable. They can't help either.
After a day of tossing, there was no one to come to the rescue.
Sawu's brow furrowed even tighter. On the rivers and lakes, he is a terrifying black boss, which makes people smell and change. However, when the calamity came, he realized that his ability was so small, and he was no different from the helplessness of ordinary people.
This continued until the third day, when the situation on the ruins finally stabilized. In three days, most of the injured who couldn't survive were dead, and those who could survive also passed the dangerous period. People's nervous and sad emotions can finally settle down. Then someone found out who was responsible for this disaster, and of course, the real culprit had been shot down into the swamp by the master of the door and died. And the indirect culprit was still lively and jumpy, and she seemed to be watching everyone's miserable situation with some schadenfreude.
If it weren't for this calamity, these people would not have dared to say anything about what the master had done. However, the grief and indignation brought about by the disaster made some people jump out in a certain atmosphere of anger, pointing at the girl and making angry accusations. In the current situation, this kind of accusation can easily cause the anger of the prairie to burn, and the anger of the last handful of people ignites the anger of the entire Black Nightmare Gate. Even Sawu couldn't bear it.
Sha Wu has always been scheming, and he wanted to take this kidnapping incident as an opportunity for him to return to the court, but he would never have dreamed that such an embarrassing situation would occur in the end. The disciples blamed him, which was also equivalent to rebuking him as the head of the door, and he felt angry at first, because his majesty was challenged, and finally he gradually understood something, and he could understand the anger of the people from another angle. This embarrassing situation was finally suppressed by the following senior disciples.
Sawu made a decisive choice to kill the girl to appease the anger of the people.
The plan to return to the temple could only be put on hold, but it was not a problem, because he could still realize this plan through other ways in the future. But right now, he can't let the Nightmare Gate split, and the only person who can make up for this rift is the Devil.
After being brought back to the ruins, she was treated very badly, including people coming and slapping her, some people spitting on her, she couldn't even get food, until finally, she almost fainted from hunger, and was poured some rice soup to temporarily keep her alive.
She can probably understand the angry actions of those people, so she doesn't have too much resentment, in fact, there is nothing in her heart except sadness and guilt, Ye Shubai's tragic death made this girl feel a heavy sense of guilt in her heart. If she hadn't asked Ye Shubai to go to Chang'an together, Ye Shubai would have enjoyed a good time with his family in Sunset Valley at this moment.
I killed him!
She sat on top of a ruin, squinting at the distant sky. At this time, the sun was in the sky, scorching hotly, she was sweating all over, due to the injuries she had suffered in the past few days, her body was already very weak, she was thinking, if she could see Ye Shubai after death, she would also feel no regrets. At this moment, her mind was full of Ye Shubai's shadow, and she couldn't tear it open or drive it away.
A strong man walked over, holding a long knife in his hand, and the expression on his face was naturally indifferent and angry.
Yun Yaya just smiled slightly bitterly, and there was not much mood swing, there may be some fear in her heart, but it was not too strong, and she smiled: "Don't you dare to do it yourself?"
The man was stunned for a moment, and said angrily: "To kill you, we still need our master to take action, hey! You really take yourself seriously." ”
"Coward!" snorted coldly.
The man sneered: "Remember, it was my second dog who killed you and died under the Nine Springs, if you want to take revenge, just come back to me." ”
"Wait! I'll get my grooming done. She stood up slowly, her pale cheeks looking like a willow leaf, so thin that she was pitiful.
She curled up the messy hair hanging down her head, tidied up the stained dress on her body again, and then slowly turned around, and threw a final glimpse in the direction of Wanshen Mountain, which seemed to her to be the last glimpse, and secretly said goodbye to her brother and father in her heart, and then shouted Mother, I am here, I closed my eyes, and tears slipped down the corners of my eyes.
Her body trembled slightly, and although she tried to accept death calmly, she was still full of irrepressible fear of death.
After a while, I didn't feel the pain, and suddenly there was a muffled snort behind me, and it seemed to be the sound of someone falling to the ground. Then there was an exclamation behind him, like a commotion.
She turned around in surprise, but saw a guy with mud on his clothes standing there, and the strong man who had just killed him fell at his feet, and he didn't know if he was dead.
