Chapter 274: Entering Xizhou for the first time
"However, even sending gravel to the Bottomless Abyss is laborious, and easy for Middle-earth to detect. Jiang Ming said.
Ling Xiyue said: "Anyway, this is something that Middle-earth needs to consider, as long as they don't relax their vigilance against Xizhou, there won't be much of a problem." ”
Jiang Ming thought about it, and it seemed that it was the same, so he stopped being entangled.
Middle-earth is now also recruiting good talents, talented people don't know how many recruits, those princes don't have hundreds of guests, or the characters who have no interests in the guests are embarrassed to see people, under the influence of this atmosphere, all those in high positions have begun to recruit good talents, and people with low status will also recommend talented people to people with high status, in order to curry favor with the above, and in exchange for some benefits.
In such a situation, if they can't effectively prevent the invasion of Xizhou, it will be too useless.
And although the two of them are smarter than ordinary people, they are all focused on martial arts, and they seem to have too many things to worry about.
Not in his position and not in his own politics, Jiang Ming quickly put this matter behind him and crossed the Hengduan Mountain Range with Ling Xiyue.
The terrain of the Hengduan Mountains is too steep, there are not many beasts, and the growth of trees is also very difficult, and it will only take some time to face the virtual realm of ignoring the terrain, and it will not be long before they come to the boundary of Xizhou.
The two changed into black clothes, covered their faces with hoods, and came to Yuzhou City, which is the closest big city to the Middle Earth Passage, and it is very rare to dress like them in Middle Earth and Dongzhou, and it will attract onlookers, but it is very common to dress up like this in Xizhou, not to mention that it is all over the street, but the probability of hitting the shirt is also higher than the probability of any other clothes.
"Strange, this is also a big city with a population of one million, how can it be so deserted?" Ling Xiyue couldn't help but feel strange as she looked at the somewhat bleak streets.
Jiang Ming is not surprised by this: "There is nothing strange about the city becoming deserted when there is a war, and you don't usually pay attention to this kind of thing, so it's not surprising that you don't know this." ”
Ling Xiyue's face was slightly red, but fortunately she couldn't see it under the hood.
She is also a saint martial artist, and she actually ignores this kind of common sense, which is really a little unreasonable: "Then, in the recent period, it should be very common for the sects here to fight each other." ”
Jiang Ming nodded and said, "That's right, but not only that, but recently some sects have started to kill mortals, using mortals' qi and blood to refine them into medicines to improve themselves, which may also be one of the reasons." ”
Ling Xiyue pointed to a restaurant not far away and said, "Let's go there and find out the news!"
The other party with a large number of people is usually the easiest to find out the news, and Ling Xiyue still has this common sense.
Just as the two of them were about to enter the restaurant
Suddenly, there was a noise in the house next to it.
"Ahh
Immediately after, there was the sound of a heavy object crashing through the door panel!
"Get out of here, for the sake of your daughter's good taste, I'll spare your old thing's life, you don't know whether to live or die, Lao Tzu will kill you and your daughter!" a grim man shouted in an arrogant tone.
There was a strong killing intent in Ling Xiyue's eyes, the woman was very angry about this kind of thing, and she rushed in without hesitation.
Jiang Ming did not enter the house immediately, but a transmission came into Ling Xiyue's ears.
After entering the room, I saw a middle-aged man lying on the ground with his chest clutched, moaning weakly, and staring at the young man in the room with angry and weak eyes. Beside the young man was a woman in a trance, her eyes glazed over a tattered garment trying to hide her scarred body, apparently having just suffered a huge blow.
The young man saw someone breaking in and said vigilantly: "This ......"
Before he finished speaking, Ling Xiyue stabbed at him with a sword, he was shocked and wanted to dodge to the side, but where was Ling Xiyue's sword qi that he could dodge?
At this time, the glazed woman next to her suddenly changed her eyes, the clothes covering her body slipped off, and a dagger with a cold glow in her hand stabbed towards Ling Xiyue with lightning speed.
However, her dagger was barely halfway stabbed before it was forcibly stopped.
"Void...... Void!" The woman's figure trembled uncontrollably, her eyes filled with despair, and she understood what it meant to her when she was bound by the power of heaven and earth.
"Rao" The young man was just about to open his mouth to beg for mercy, when his throat was cut by a sword qi.
The remaining two people in the room instinctively wanted to escape, but their feet were weak and they couldn't act at all, so they were pierced through their throats by Ling Xiyue's two sword qi in the air.
"Xiyue, you killed them all?" Jiang Ming saw Ling Xiyue come out of the house so quickly, and quickly realized that Ling Xiyue didn't do the interrogation work at all.
Ling Xiyue said: "Anyway, it's just a few little people, and there will definitely not be too many things to know." ”
Although she was suspected of making excuses for herself, she couldn't be mistaken in what she said, just a few little people, how many things could she know? Since she was upset, she simply killed them, and their lives were not as important as her mood.
Jiang Ming smiled bitterly and shook his head, but he didn't say much.
Ling Xiyue asked, "How did you know that they were a gang?"
Long before she went in, Jiang Ming had already sent a message to her, telling her that the people in the house were a group.
Don't let her go.
Although she trusts Jiang Ming, there are still some things that need to be confirmed, after all, even Jiang Ming sometimes makes mistakes, so she did not show her full strength at the beginning, but gave the woman a chance to sneak attack herself, and the result is indeed as Jiang Ming said, they are simply killing others.
Jiang Ming explained: "It's very simple, the sound we heard at the beginning was a father who saw his daughter being yelled at by that kind of thing, since he said that, he should have just seen it, and we didn't see anyone go in just now!"
Ling Xiyue suddenly realized, since no one went in, it meant that it was not just seen, but that the person was already in the house, so it was unreasonable to shout out such words.
"Why did they come up with such a big plan?" Ling Xiyue was a little puzzled.
Jiang Ming said casually: "Perhaps, they screened people who don't know how to do it first! Leave a flaw, then the smarter people won't go in, and their safety will be improved a lot." ”
Ling Xiyue nodded, and then suddenly thought of a possibility: "Could it be that he first knocked the people in the house unconscious, and then the people who were knocked unconscious woke up?"
Jiang Ming was stunned, although this possibility is small, it is not impossible!
"So, fortunately, I confirmed it, otherwise if I did it directly, I might have killed the wrong person. Ling Xiyue was a little happy.
Killing a few people who should be killed has little effect on her, and it's okay to stand on a pile of corpses and talk about love after killing, but killing an innocent person has a great impact on her.
Jiang Ming had some depression in his heart, if this was in wartime, even if he killed a thousand people by mistake in order to kill one person, it could not be completely said that it was wrong, it could only be said that this person's heart was too ruthless. But this is not wartime! Can't we waste a little precious time judging right from wrong? If his first impression is wrong, then the person who bears the consequences of this mistake is likely to be innocent!
Could it be that his temperament has become so indifferent to the lives of ordinary people?
Ling Xiyue said: "Don't think about it, we still have something to do!"
Jiang Ming woke up from his trembling mind, and then followed Ling Xiyue to the restaurant.
Although it is a troubled time and there are not many people going out, this restaurant is the only one that opens in the troubled times, so there are not many vacant seats, and the two of them went to the fourth floor to find an empty seat.
Jiang Ming observed on the way upstairs, all the guests here were people with martial arts, but they were not based on a single exercise like the other four domains, but there were five kinds of exercises, even the "Hundred Flowers Cracking Golden Technique" with the largest number of cultivators was only forty percent.
