"My lord......" Zi Baifeng turned around and was about to leave, Xiang Anbai grabbed Zi Baifeng's hand and pleaded in a low voice.
"Huh......" Zi Baifeng sighed and turned to look over.
There was hesitation and struggle on Xiang Anbai's face, but more resolutely, his meaning was obvious, hoping that Zi Baifeng could save these people.
Huzar was a man of great iron, and he almost never begged anyone, even when he was at the end of his rope.
And he doesn't know what to do, the person in front of him is his big savior - in this world, except for Zi Baifeng, no one can save him.
Only Zi Baifeng missed this opportunity, this city of tents, this nomadic people, these men who people like in their hearts, will disappear forever in this land.
Ying Longzong doesn't care, and never cares, so this land is so desolate.
And this land will be even more desolate until there is no grass left.
How strong is the Spirit Gathering Array's ability to plunder the surrounding land? Others may not know the way, but Xiang Anbai has seen it with his own eyes, he has seen the vast and boundless Death Desert, and he has seen the terrifying desperate situation where he will die if he steps into it.
"My lord......" Seeing that Zi Baifeng was still hesitating, Xiang Anbai shouted again.
"Okay......" Zi Baifeng sighed, he is not hard-hearted after all, if he really turns around and leaves like this today, I am afraid that he will really not forgive himself in the future.
"Old Hu. Zi Baifeng suddenly asked Hu Laodao: "This land, but yours?"
"This ......" Zi Baifeng suddenly asked, Hu Zal didn't understand a little, but he still replied: "Dingshui City and the thousands of miles of land nearby belong to our Ying Ding clan. ”
"I want to buy land, do you have a title deed?" Zi Baifeng asked again.
"Buy land?" Huzar didn't know what Lu Daozi Baifeng meant by asking this, but Xiang Anbai nodded to him again and again, telling him to definitely agree, not to refuse.
"We don't have the official title deed, but we do have a land card. Huzar said.
"Ground cards?" Zi Baifeng had never heard of.
Xiang Anbai hurriedly explained to him that the land card is a special way to buy land.
The land is vast and sparsely populated, and they live in a barren wilderness, and the land is extremely worthless, but the ordinary way of buying it is not suitable, and the so-called land is also a kind of rule set by Huzar.
A piece of land is sold for 10,000 gold, and a knight rides on a fast horse, hangs a bag full of wattle seeds on the horse's back, a hole in the bag with a knife, and then beats the horse and runs away, and before the bag is finished, draw a circle as large as possible, and this circle is the man's land.
When it comes to the beginning of spring, Vitex grows out, it will be full of yellow flowers, and it will become a natural dividing line, the growth rate and spread rate of Vitex are extremely slow, and livestock will not eat it, so this dividing line can exist for tens or even hundreds of years.
This way of staking is extremely interesting, if Zi Baifeng has nothing to do, he will definitely have a good experience, try to encircle a circle of land by himself, but at this time there is no time, he said: "Ten thousand gold? I want to buy a piece of land." ”
Huzar wanted to say something, but Xiang Anbai told him not to say much and hurry up to prepare.
Hu Hansen turned his face into the account, took a bag of Hu Jing seeds out, several people took the cloud boat, and flew out of the city with Zi Baifeng, and arrived at a borderless land, Zi Baifeng pointed at it, wrote a flying word on the bag, and then poked a huge hole in it with a finger, and the bag flew out with a bang.
Hu Hansen opened his mouth and wanted to say something, Hu Zal glared at him, stopped his words, the bag crossed an arc in the air, and encircled a piece of land ten miles away, Zi Baifeng was not greedy, if he wanted it, there would be a chance in the future.
"It would be nice to be bigger...... Xiang Anbai felt a little sorry, and Huzar also said: "It's too small!"
Skilled knights can control the bumps and speed of the horses, and try to draw this circle bigger.
"Not necessarily. Zi Baifeng didn't have the time to say much to them, Huzar looked at the area carefully, carved something on a wooden plaque in the script of the Ying Ding clan, and then handed it to Zi Baifeng.
Zi Baifeng put the wooden plaque in the palm of his hand, and was immediately sucked into the palm of his hand, and this land also became different and became his territory.
Since the land card also has an effect, Zi Baifeng was relieved, and as soon as he raised his hand, a card was lost.
These days, Zi Baifeng often shuffles the cards, but now that the cards are shuffled, the focus of Zi Baifeng's shuffle is a little different, in addition to keeping the basic three cards that can fight, the remaining one, he will shuffle out the resource card.
Since the "Gift of the Danki Sacred Tree" can be a resource card, there should be a second one.
After a few days of shuffling, Zi Baifeng finally shuffled out the resource card for the second chapter.
"The revelation of the Bluestone Divine Monarch. "The card in Zi Baifeng's hand is this one.
"Speed 60, 40 units of aura per day, 30 units of all-attribute spars per day, two golden sword demons per day, special attributes: guarding the leylines, sun and moon aura impact. ”
The attributes in front are clear at a glance, and two golden sword demons are produced every day, Zi Baifeng doesn't know too much what kind of form it will be, whether it is permanent, or the card will disappear if it is canceled, and the special attribute guards the leyline, and the specific effect is still unknown. What the aura impact is, he doesn't know what it is.
Zi Baifeng raised his hand and used the card.
A streamer of light rose from Zi Baifeng's hand against the sky, and this light did not shoot directly at the position that Zi Baifeng wanted, but directly into the sky.
A full moon was hanging in the sky, and the light was like a meteor rising against the sky, rushing towards the moon with amazing power.
In the midst of the roar, almost all the Yingding tribesmen who were killing horses in the night were prostrate on the ground, praying to the sky, and even Huzar was pale, and the two trembled.
The power of this anti-heaven golden mang is too strong, although the revelation of the bluestone god monarch is just a card, it is a projection of the bluestone, it goes against the sky, although it is far less domineering than the real bluestone god monarch patrolling the nine heavens, but where have these people seen it?
And Zi Baifeng watched it fly directly to the moon, and immediately understood what the so-called "Sun and Moon Aura Impact" was.
In terms of the speed of generating aura, the "Revelation of the Bluestone Divine Monarch" is not as fast as the "Gift of the Danmu Divine Tree", but the special effect it brings is immediate.
The so-called "sun and moon aura impact" is to tear off the "aura" directly from the sky!
The Qingshi Divine Monarch had done this twice, the first time was to tear off the Yuehua Spiritual Qi and directly fill Zi Baifeng's territory with the Spiritual Qi, and the second time was to tear off the Zhiyang Spiritual Qi, which directly broke Zhongshan and gave birth to a Immortal Monarch-level master.
And now, it is obvious that it is still Yuehua Aura that has been torn off.
In the blink of an eye, the light drew an arc in the air, turned around, and shot towards the place where Zi Baifeng had been aiming.
Behind the golden rays, a pillar of silver light went straight to heaven and earth.
The power of the golden mang is amazing, but the landing is like a feather falling, not startled, after all, it is just a phantom, but after that, the earth suddenly shook, and the endless moonlight shot down from the sky, straight into the earth, poured into the leyline, and scattered the dead air accumulated in the leyline, until it rushed to the edge of the land, then stopped, and then the aura of the moonlight formed a cycle in the leyline, and began to circulate slowly, this is the so-called "guarding the leyline".
And the rest of the moonlight, like a silver frost bomb exploding on the leyline, instantly exploded a lot of rotten silver, and it seemed that the ground instantly turned into a mirror.
And everywhere the silver light passed, the dead trees were springing, the barren grass sprouted, and countless plants scrambled to grow out of the earth.
Although the "Revelation of the Divine Monarch" does not produce as much aura and jade as the "Gift of the Danmu Divine Tree" every day, it seems that this "Aura Impact" alone has already had an outstanding effect.
"This ...... This ......" Hu Hansen almost fell to the ground, buried his face in the dense grass, and shouted loudly: "Ying Dragon God has appeared, Ying Dragon God has appeared!"
"Senior!" Huzar knelt on the ground and threw himself at the feet of Zi Baifeng, and made a great gift of throwing himself to the ground: "Thank you seniors for exerting great magical powers, saving me from Dingshui City in the midst of fire and water, and saving thousands of my people when they are dying, thank you seniors, thank you seniors!"
He knocked his head on the ground.
He now knows that Zi Baifeng must be an incognito senior master, as for his identity, he doesn't need to ask, and he doesn't dare to ask.
"That's all I can do today, don't claim that I've been here, this land should be able to keep your race thriving, but I can't guarantee how long I can keep it here. Zi Baifeng pointed to the huge bluestone phantom.
"Lands, lands. Xiang Anbai whispered to remind Huzar, Huzar was blessed to the heart, took out a string of land cards from his waist, and handed them all to Zibaifeng without hesitation, and said: "Senior, Huzar is willing to give a lot of land......"
"No need...... Zi Baifeng just said, Xiang Anbai had already taken over a large number of land cards, turned out two pieces from the middle, and handed them to Zi Baifeng.
These pieces of land are bordered by Zibaifeng's land.
"You're smart. Zi Baifeng couldn't cry or laugh, Xiang Anbai actually understood the operation mechanism of his territory, maybe it was just a guess, or it was a mistake, but he did it right.
Zi Baifeng looked at it, but he didn't know the words of the Ying Ding clan, he casually put those land cards into the palm of his hand, and the land suddenly expanded to a radius of 100 miles.
The condensed and undispersed moonlight suddenly spread out, like a layer of silver frost in the wasteland.
In the silver frost, the blue boulder phantom is majestic, like a hill, above the phantom, the bright moon is in the sky, reflected on the bluestone, which is particularly beautiful and mysterious.
"This should be enough for you to multiply, and you must send someone to guard the boulder in the center, so that people do not approach it easily. Zi Baifeng admonished.
"Yes, seniors, if the predecessors have an order in the future, all of them will obey, and we will also set up a tablet for the predecessors and worship the predecessors as the Buddhas of ten thousand families. Huzar said loudly.
"It doesn't have to be. Zi Baifeng shook his head.
Huzar has lived for hundreds of years, and he is the leader of the party, his mind is lively, and he said loudly: "The predecessors went to look at Dongcheng, if they needed it, they only needed a letter, and Huzar was willing to sink his liver and brains!"
With this land, some of the livestock that are still alive can be concentrated, and the herders will be able to reproduce, and in only one or two years, they will be able to regain their former popularity, and the livestock will reproduce very quickly, and in just ten years, they can be completely restored.
And Zi Baifeng can put this huge bluestone phantom here, and naturally he can also take it away, it is impossible for Ying Long Sect's Spirit Gathering Array to stop, and if their race wants to reproduce, they must rely on Zi Baifeng.
At this time, Huzar naturally had to show his loyalty.
Zi Baifeng was also satisfied with Huzar's knowledge, and he didn't shirk, just nodded and said, "Just remember your promise in the future." ”
This time, he is afraid that he really needs Huzar's commitment, and now in Wangdong City, I don't know what the situation is, if he is really starving all over the place, then he really needs Huzar's assistance, at least now Huzar still has a large number of livestock and a large number of manpower.
After finishing this matter, Zi Baifeng did not delay any longer, got on the cloud boat, and flew to the west.
On top of the cloud boat, Zi Baifeng began to shuffle the cards, if his resource card had "The Gift of the Danmu Divine Tree" and "The Revelation of the Divine Monarch", would there be others?
The immediate effect of the resource card is more effective than the card used in battle, and it is more liked by Zi Baifeng.
It's just that the probability of washing out the resource card is too low, Zi Baifeng draws it all the way, discards it all the way, and the spiritual power in his body is quickly consumed, but he can't wash out other resource cards.
Isn't there any other resource card?
Zi Baifeng always felt that he would not be so pitiful, but the more anxious he was, the more he couldn't wash it out.
It really didn't work, so I had to temporarily take back the Danmu Divine Tree that carried the heavens.
Or...... Is there any other way?
"My lord, there are still two hours before Wangdong City, you can rest a little, even if you are in a hurry now, it is useless. Seeing Zi Baifeng, he was in a hurry, and whispered to Anbai.
Zi Baifeng snorted and forced himself to calm down, but suddenly realized that he was in a hurry when he patronized himself, and he forgot to tell his father.
Now I want to tell my father, but it's simple, as long as it's in his land, he can use spiritual power to clone.
Zaitianfu, at this time, the sky is already bright, most people have fallen asleep or meditated and cultivated, but in Zijian's house, the lights are still on.
Zijian and Xiaopan were still studying the magic weapon house, and the mechanical man Mu was sitting next to him, and his face that looked like Zijian also showed a look of close thought.
Zi Baifeng sensed where they were, so he immediately activated his spiritual power and turned into his own spiritual power clone.
"Huh...... Strange ......" Zi Baifeng opened his eyes, only to find that everything in front of him was very huge.
The magic weapon house on the table looks like a real house, and Zijian and Xiaopan are like lifting people.
"Click!" Seeing Zi Baifeng appear, Mu stood up, stretched out his hand and grabbed it, Zi Baifeng hurriedly jumped away and said, "Don't scratch it, it's me!"
"Bai Feng, why are you ......" Zijian was startled.
Zi Baifeng smiled bitterly: "Probably the total amount of spiritual energy here is too small, so there is no way to form a complete spiritual power clone. ”
Zifu is just a courtyard covering an area of 100 meters, and of course it is impossible to produce too much aura on such a small land.
"Dad, I just heard a message. Zi Baifeng didn't have time to say hello, so he told everything he knew.
"What? you say...... Zi Jian shouted and jumped up, causing the wood lying there to study the little man Bai Feng stumbling in fright, and almost sat down on the ground.
"Now I haven't seen the situation in Wangdong City, so I don't dare to make a conclusion, but I don't think there should be anything wrong, but I don't know what the current situation of Wangdong City is, and how many people are still ......."
"Then hurry up. Zijian was also a decisive figure: "My side immediately sent someone to prepare some supplies, loaded them on the cloud boat, and carried them over directly." ”
"Good. Zi Baifeng nodded, this matter was handed over to Zijian, he was very relieved.
There are priorities, compared with Wangdong City, the things on the side of Zaitianfu can be put aside.
After Zi Baifeng disappeared, Zi Jian didn't stop, and directly called everyone up.
"Erhei, the construction here will be handed over to you for the time being, Xiaopan, you are also here to help supervise, I will carry this magic weapon house with me, if there is any progress, I will immediately notify you through Bai Feng. Zijian explained to Erhedao, and then said to Zi Wu: "Child, you stay for the time being, there must be someone here." ”
"Big brother, don't worry. Zi Wu nodded, at the critical moment, this woman is also extremely reliable.
"Brother Jian, I'll go with you, one more person and more strength, I can't help here. Uncle Zhu volunteered.
"Brother!" the red drum lady grabbed Zijian's hand, she must go.
In this way, everyone mobilized, and before dawn, they scattered out, looking for the morning market everywhere, and buying on a large scale, and I don't know how many of the trading houses that had not yet opened were broken down, whether it was food, clothing, or use, as long as they could buy anything, they all waved silver tickets and bought them.
When the news reached the ears of the Karakuri Sect, Elder Pingqi frowned and said, "What is this Zijian doing, what is the use of purchasing those things?"
His thoughts, however, were still on the gambling contract.
"Could it be that this guy gave up the gambling contract and planned to run away?" A disciple said, Elder Pingqi shook his head and said, "How can you do such a thing." ”
He just couldn't figure it out, didn't relax, and continued to be busy.
While Zijian was busy purchasing supplies, Zi Baifeng finally arrived at Wangdong City.
When Xiang Anbai said to Zi Baifeng: "My lord, Wangdong City will be there soon". Zi Baifeng still hadn't washed out the resource cards, so he gave up and decided to directly draw the "Gift of the Danmu Divine Tree" if needed.
Following the direction pointed by Anbai, Zi Baifeng looked down, and on the hillside in the distance, a city built against a mountain was faintly visible.
This city is a rare and exquisite city that Zi Baifeng saw after he came to the boundary of the Celestial Empire.
"That mountain is called Baishi Mountain, and the stones on the mountain are snow-white and delicately textured, and even Ying Longzong will mine stones from here to build a palace. Xiang Kishibai introduced.
"Wangdong City is one of the westernmost cities of the Heavenly Empire, it is said that it is the farthest place that the merchants of the Heavenly Empire can reach, and when they reach Wangdong City, they can no longer go west, and when they get here, they must return, so it is called Wangdong City. ”
According to legend, Wangdong City was founded by a group of refugees who fled, and after they settled here, some merchants gradually joined it, which led to the current Wangdong City. ”
Listening to Xiang Anbai's introduction, Zi Baifeng was silent, he stood at the bow of the boat, carried his spiritual power vision, and looked in the direction of Wangdongcheng.
The buildings that lined the hill were gray and silent, and there was hardly a single figure in sight, and it looked like an empty city.
Don't......
Zi Baifeng had an ominous premonition in his heart.
No, even if ordinary people will die, the "old man" is obviously a monk and will not die here.
The distance was closer, and Xiang Anbai also realized that something was wrong, the city was too quiet.
"Maybe they've migrated. "Xiang'an Bai Dao," the sub-city lord is one of the most difficult people in the neighborhood to deal with, and even Hu Lao admires him. ”
In the barren land of the West, there are fierce nomads everywhere, and there are fierce merchants and all kinds of fugitives wandering, and the city lord who guards one side of such a place will naturally not be idle.
The city is about five or six miles in circumference, and in the center, there is a platform carved out of the hill, which looks like the central square of the city.
The cloud boat fell on the square, and Zi Baifeng looked left and right.
There are no imaginary starvations, no ragged pedestrians, or yellow-skinned children, men lying on the ground waiting to die.
All this is not Zi Baifeng's imagination out of thin air, when Zi Baifeng was wandering with Zijian when he was a child, he was full of what he saw, just for this kind of scene, he was too familiar with all this, and he was too scared, for fear that this place would become like that.
But the current empty scene is obviously not normal.
"Split up. As soon as Zi Baifeng raised his hand, two golden rays flew out of his sleeve, flying in two directions, and Xiang Anbai also responded, identified one direction, and flew away.
Zi Baifeng looked at a house next to the empty field.
Looking at the location of the building, it should be the City Lord's Mansion, and the gate of the City Lord's Mansion is closed, and it doesn't look like it has been abandoned.
Zi Baifeng flew in from the wall, but it was a little messy inside, but seeing this mess, Zi Baifeng was relieved, which meant that these people were actually leaving, not dying.
Zi Baifeng searched carefully again, and there were almost no food and clothing supplies, obviously when they evacuated, they took all these things away, and only then did they let go of half of their hearts.
But now the question is, where have all these people gone?
Wangdong City is not big, and after a while, the two golden sword demons and Xiang Anbai both came back, reporting to Zi Baifeng that no trace of anyone was found.
When they returned, Zi Baifeng was standing in the middle of the hall, looking up at a portrait.
On top of the portrait is an ancient emperor, with a simple and solemn appearance and a serious face.
And this portrait, Zi Baifeng once saw it in the family ancestral hall.
The difference was that those eyes, extraordinarily attentive, seemed to be staring at him.
