Volume 2 The Battle of Revenge Chapter 129 Human Nature
Under the stunned gaze of the squirrel and purple smoke, the fat man with the change of dust walked to the door, opened the door, and after going out, closed the door.
When the old city lord and the mortals saw their demon king come out, they immediately knelt on the ground and shouted, "Welcome the demon king." ”
"Well, you have performed well, and if you cooperate with this king to win that little lady, this demon king will reward you. ”
The prodigal son of the dust changer said.
"Thank you, Demon King. ”
The crowd immediately showed happy expressions.
"By the way, old city lord, I have to ask you one more thing, is the rumored exit really under that mysterious altar?"
Dusty asked with a smile.
"Returning to the Demon King, according to historical records, the exit of this side is indeed under the altar. ”
The old city lord bowed his head when he said this, but there was a hint of joy in his eyes.
"Oh, that's right. There is still a problem for this Demon King. ”
"Lord Demon King, please speak. ”
"I don't know if you feel it, those two are much stronger than this demon king. In your opinion, they are also immortals, although they don't know how to cultivate, but two can always beat me, why do you ask them to kill me? In this way, no one will come to oppress you. ”
After Weichen finished speaking, the old city lord hurriedly knelt on the ground, kowtowed again and again, and said: "We are loyal to the Demon King, and we have no second thoughts, how can we harm the Demon King, the Demon King is aware of it." ”
"Are you faithful, or are you accustomed to being slaves, so that when the opportunity comes, you are still accustomed to obeying those who oppress you. ”
When he said this, Weichen had already changed back to Xia Dayu's appearance, and Ziyan and Squirrel also dragged the body of the obscene fat man He Dingning to open the door and walk out.
Seeing that the demon king who had been oppressing the heads of the residents in the city had actually been killed, everyone was immediately taken aback, and immediately bowed down to Xia Dayu and them.
"Thank you to the Immortal for killing this demon king, the people of our Abyss City can finally see the light of day again. ”
Looking at their grateful, a mocking smile appeared on the corner of Xia Dayu's mouth, and he said leisurely: "Don't be so anxious to thank me first, we haven't settled accounts with you yet for helping the Demon King harm us." ”
Hearing this, everyone outside the door immediately turned pale, and the old city lord kowtowed and said: "Shangxian spares our lives, this is all forced by the demon king to do it, if we don't do it, he will kill us, Shangxian spares his life......"
Seeing them kneeling and begging for mercy, Xia Dayu said: "If we beg you for mercy after being drugged, will you let us go?
Immediately the crowd panicked, wept bitterly, and did not answer anything, but still kowtowed there.
"Okay, old city lord, I'll ask you now, is that altar really the way to the outside world?"
The old city lord immediately raised his head and said, "It's really an immortal, it's really the way to the outside world, and the ancient books record it like this." ”
"And what's going on with the magma down there?"
Hearing this, the old city lord immediately broke out in a cold sweat and said hesitantly: "The magma...... The magma was all fake, a trick to keep the people of the city from going out. ”
"Oh, who set up the trick, and how did you know that? After all these years, you know it's fake, so why don't you run away?"
Xia Dayu asked with a smile.
The old city lord's cold sweat was even more, and he hurriedly said: "That's what the Demon King told us, we have lived here for generations, and we don't know what the outside world is like, so we don't want to go outside." ”
"Hmph, the donkey's head is not in the horse's mouth, and you said before that you had explored the surroundings. In any case, please ask the old city lord to come with us, and when we get to the altar, we will naturally see. ”
After speaking, Xia Dayu grabbed the old city lord, took off into the air, and flew towards the north, and Purple Smoke and Squirrels also followed closely and flew over.
The distance of a hundred miles is not far away, Xia Dayu and they arrived after flying a pillar of incense, and there was indeed an altar there, and the center of the altar was shining, which was particularly dazzling in this dark underground world.
The altar was very large and square, and the higher it went, the smaller it became, and at the top, only a few zhang square remained.
Xia Dayu and the old city lord landed on the edge of the altar, and the purple smoke and squirrels also fell, and they all felt a little palpitating when they looked at the surging magma below the altar and the terrifying heat it exuded.
"This is the altar you are talking about, is this magma really fake?"
Xia Dayu asked.
The old city lord closed his eyes and said ruthlessly: "It is indeed fake, historical records record that this is the road to the outside world." ”
"In that case, then ask the old city lord to lead the way first. ”
After speaking, Xia Dayu threw the old city lord down, and the old city lord immediately let out a heart-rending cry of fear.
"Sure enough, they lied to us. Hmmm, that's not right!"
Xia Dayu just sneered, but saw a strange scene.
The old city lord screamed and fell into the magma, but instead of turning into ashes, the moment he touched the magma, the space appeared strangely distorted, and then the old city lord disappeared.
"What's going on?"
Ziyan asked in surprise.
"I see, it's a teleportation array, it's just disguised as magma, and the old city lord isn't lying. ”
Squirrel Masase said.
"Then why did he scream as if he was about to die? ”
Ziyan asked.
Xia Dayu pondered for a moment and then said, "I know what's going on. ”
"As soon as we entered, the Demon King discovered us, and he restrained his breath and asked those people to give us the Scattering Elixir. Like I said, those people are used to being slaves, and even when the immortals come, they are still used to obeying their oppressors. This is human nature, and it is servility. ”
"The old city lord said that this is the exit, and the magma is fake, what's going on?"
Ziyan asked.
"Maybe the old city lord said the same thing to the obscene fat man, and when the fat man came here, he didn't dare to jump down when he saw the magma below, so he could only go back and be his rich man. And the residents of the city, including the old city lord, thought that this magma was real, so even if it was really recorded in ancient books that it was an exit, they did not dare to jump in. ”
Xia Dayu's eyes were deep, and he continued: "Let me ask you, a group of people were oppressed by the Demon King, and they assisted the Demon King in killing the immortals, but after learning that the immortals killed the Demon King, what was their first feeling?"
"It's grateful, grateful that we helped them kill the Demon King, and that they were lucky to be free and reborn. ”
Ziyan thought for a while and said.
"Childish, their first feeling is fear, because they have deceived us and harmed us, so when they learn that we are still alive, their first reaction is fear, they will be afraid of our revenge, and the revenge of the two immortals is something they can't bear. ”
"So, the old lord told us that this magma was fake, and that he was simply lying to us, and that he wanted us to jump and die, so that we could not take revenge on them. But he didn't expect that this magma was really fake, and this place might really be an exit to the outside world. ”
"Obey oppression, trap the well-willed, cowardly and dare not fight to the death, can only live in the underground darkness for generations, after we have saved them, they still want to kill us, because they are afraid of revenge. That's human nature. ”
After listening to Xia Dayu's words, Ziyan sighed and sighed: "Alas, I didn't expect this human nature to be so dark, full of despicability and shamelessness. ”
The squirrel also said, "Boy, if you can comprehend this, it already means that you have made great progress." ”
Xia Dayu smiled slightly and said to Ziyan: "Little girl, now you know that people's hearts are sinister, you must be careful when you go out in the future." ”
Ziyan couldn't help but jump up and said, "The old lady has been practicing for almost a year, she is older than you, how old are you, little brat!"
"I'm eighteen. ”
Xia Dayu shrank his head in fright and whispered.
"Don't mess with you, Xia Dayu, if we can go out this time, I will help you enter the Ziyang Sect to learn alchemy, when the time comes, if you don't understand, you can find me, I will help you, my master is a dignified medicine soul master, he is the only local alchemist in Southern Xinjiang, the four sects and three clans in the entire Southern Xinjiang, Dan Dao is one way, and my master is respected. This is also the reason why the Dan Dao lineage of the Ziyang Sect can stand alone in the entire southern Xinjiang. ”
Ziyan said with a smile.
Xia Dayu looked at her in a daze, and then said happily: "Great, you don't chase me, you still have to help me, great." ”
Seeing Xia Dayu dancing happily like a child, and judging the two of them part-time with his careful analysis just now, Ziyan smiled slightly, and there was a hint of sweetness in his heart.
Xia Dayu happily picked up the squirrel and said, "Squirrel, look, I'll just say it, Ziyan will become our good friend, and she is our third best friend." ”
Ziyan was stunned, forcibly suppressed a sense of loss that rose in her heart for some reason, and said with a smile: "Friend? Well, then you are my first good friend." Who were your first two best friends?"
"The first one is Hu Youzi, the Taoist priest who was with us in the immortal ruins last time, but he disappeared when he entered the secret realm of the Yundian Sect with us, probably died in the Tiansha Great Array of the Yundian Sect, but he is scheming, and he may not die. The second best friend was a diving python, and when we helped it turn into a python, he said that we were good friends with it. ”
After Xia Dayu finished speaking, Ziyan looked at him dumbfounded.
"The hidden python is in the abyss, and it turns into a dragon when it encounters the wind, and the wind is in the clouds, and it turns into a dragon when it encounters blood. Are you talking about this kind of hidden python? What kind of realm is that? It is rumored that the hidden python must at least be in the Yuan Infant Realm. ”
"Before the transformation is a habitat. ”
Xia Dayu said.
"After turning into a Jiao, it is a transcendent realm. ”
Squirrel said.
