Chapter 42: The Small World of Ichthyosaurs
Ichthyosaurus Town, the only human town in the small world of Ichthyosaurus, the whole town is full of dilapidated houses, only the city walls are basically intact.
People are ruled by a creature called the Crocodile Monster, and in Ichthyosaur Town, there is a legend that whenever the two moons are suspended in the sky, a savior will appear to save the Ichthyosaur Town Terrans from fire and water.
When night falls, the townspeople hide in their dilapidated houses. There is only one house on the edge of the West District on the street, and inside the house is the only watchman in the whole town, Xiaoqiang, who has been a watchman for more than ten generations. He sat on a broken bench in a ragged linen coat, staring at the hourglass.
When midnight was about to come, Xiaoqiang walked out of the house with a bamboo bangzi, and patrolled for the third time, and the sound of bangzi came out, knock——knock!
When he walked to the edge of the eastern part of the town, he was stunned when he looked up by chance. The moon in the sky is separating, and it seems that a new moon is diverging from the original moon.
Even more surprising happened, the moon grew bigger and bigger, and seemed to be rushing towards the town.
"Help!" Xiao Qiang was so frightened that he wanted to run directly, but his pants were not fastened, he didn't run a dozen steps, he fell off, tripped him, and rolled over a distance of five or six meters. However, he was wearing a burlap robe, which did not expose anything, and there was not much damage, except that his hands were broken.
Feeling that the light behind him was getting brighter and brighter, Xiao Qiang slowly turned over and looked at the moon in horror on the floating town.
The moon did not continue to set, but began to slowly spill out, and when the light finally disappeared, two figures seemed to float in the air.
At this time, in Yulong Town, the two figures that appeared were the stars and the blood dance.
Looking at the dilapidated town under his feet, Xingchen was a little puzzled, "There is actually a human town in this secret realm, and it seems that there are many people living in it. ”
Blood Dance also showed a look of surprise, "I don't know about this, when my grandfather gave me the Pisces Jade Pendant Key, he didn't tell me any strategy. He just reminded me that I couldn't let the creatures in here know that this was a secret place. ”
Xingchen nodded, "If you really tell you the strategy, you will lose the experience effect of the secret realm itself." As for not letting them know who we are, it's probably because of the Terrans below. ”
Blood Dance looked at the stars, "But in that case, how do we explain where we came from?"
Xingchen smiled slightly, "There shouldn't be any worries about this, the secret realm itself will provide an identity for the practitioners, as for what identity, let's get to know this town first." There's a guy there, let's go check it out. As he spoke, he pointed to Xiaoqiang, a watchman who fell to the ground.
The two flew over together and landed beside the watchman.
Xiao Qiang saw the two black shadows turned into the moon flying towards him, and he was already frightened and weak. But seeing that the black shadow was in human form, he remembered the legend in the town that whenever the double moon hung in the sky, a savior would come.
And they flew down, they must be very powerful, whether it is or not, there is nothing wrong with kneeling and begging for mercy. Before the two could speak, Xiao Qiang immediately tried to get up and kneel on the ground, "Xiao Qiang, the watchman, has seen the two saviors. ”
Xingchen looked at the watchman kneeling in front of him, and said to the blood dance: "How about it, what I said is right! ”
Blood Dance turned her face and looked to the side, "Hmph, you're smart, okay?"
When Xingchen saw this scene, he was stunned, what happened? Why are you angry again? Forget it, don't care, let's find out the situation first. He looked at Xiao Qiang, who had been kneeling down, and said, "We are the savior, come and solve your troubles." Don't rebel now, we need to know everything here. ”
Xiao Qiang was obviously stunned, why don't you resist? Next, he fell into a coma directly, and the memories of his life were consulted by the stars. For such an ordinary person, the stars can completely control it.
After checking it out, Xingchen said to Blood Dance, "They call this world the Ichthyosaurus World, and the size is no more than ten thousand miles. But there are hundreds of tribes, and the Terrans are the weakest of them, worshipping the moon god, and they are ruled by the crocodile monsters. Legend has it that when the moon is in the sky, a savior will come, and I mean that we, as practitioners, have just entered this world from the moon. ”
Blood Dance shrugged, "It's really easy for you Illusion Dao cultivators to hear the news. ”
Xingchen explained: "It's not accurate for you to say this, like dealing with cultivators, the tricks they learn, or the key information are protected by the Heavenly Dao Oath, and now I can't find out about them at all, and ......."
Blood Dance waved her hand again and again, "Okay, okay, I'll just sigh, no need to explain." As long as you're by my side, I don't need to know that. ”
Xingchen had no choice but to stop, and with a move of his mind, Xiaoqiang, a watchman, woke up from a coma. Xiaoqiang looked around, "What happened to me just now?"
Xingchen reached out to help him up, "We will help you get rid of the rule of the crocodile monsters, but it is too late now, and although we are the saviors, it is not convenient to disturb everyone." So, can I stay with you first?"
Xiaoqiang was a little squirming, "Of course I welcome the two saviors, but my house is too ...... dilapidated"
Xingchen smiled, "It's okay, we'll go over now." With a move of his mind, he controlled Xiaoqiang, and then in a flash, ten breaths had come to the edge of the western part of the town, in front of a dilapidated house.
Xiao Qiang's eyes widened, "How is it possible? How do you know that this is my house, and the size of the town is ten miles away, from the edge of the Eastern District to here, how can it be so fast." ”
Xingchen shrugged, "We are the saviors. "In fact, he still retains most of his strength just now, if the speed is too fast, Xiaoqiang's body will tear inside.
In this regard, Xiaoqiang is completely convinced, and only a savior can do all this. He hurriedly opened the door with the key, and was startled when he saw Blood Dance sitting inside. But now he has believed that the stars and the two are the saviors, so after the surprise, there is joy, the more powerful the savior, the sooner they can get rid of the rule of the crocodile monster.
So this night, Xiaoqiang, who was excited to play the watch, did not continue to go out to play the watch.
Until dawn came, a group of small vendors gathered around his house and made noise.
"What's going on? Yesterday on the fourth watch, the fifth watch, the watchman did not watch. ”
"That's it, I didn't make a sound, I slept until dawn, and I didn't have to do business. ”
......
After a while, the old mayor, whose hair was half white, came here and tapped the ground with his cane, "Quiet, what are you doing here? ”
A woman hawker who sells breakfast walked up to the mayor of the town to protest, "The watchman didn't do his duty last night, and I didn't hear the voice of the fifth watch. "A group of people helped to testify, and these hawkers who sold breakfast all relied on the fifth watch to work quietly, and they missed the hour today, all because the watchman did not do his duty.
The mayor looked at the angry crowd and could only wave his hand, "Go knock on the door and wake up Xiaoqiang, I need to know the reason." ”
At this time, Xiaoqiang was laying a bunk in the lobby, and a strong knock on the door sounded, waking him up.
He woke up in a panic and realized that he had failed in his duties. As soon as he opened the door, he saw the angry crowd and the majestic old mayor.
The old mayor's voice came, "Xiaoqiang, did you not fulfill your responsibility to fight the guard yesterday?"
When Xiaoqiang heard this, he just wanted to admit his mistake, but suddenly remembered last night's experience, and explained: "I met the savior yesterday, so I was so excited that I forgot to continue to play." ”
The old mayor tapped the ground with his cane, "You have to find a valid reason to lie. The hawkers were also skeptical.
Xiaoqiang immediately explained: "I'm not lying, there were two moons last night, and one of them came to our town, and the savior came out of this moon. They were right in my bedroom. ”
Hearing Xiaoqiang's words, some people began to mutter, "Last night on the third watch, I was woken up by a cry for help, and it was indeed very bright outside the window, could it be true that the watchman said?"
"Hey, I think I've seen that too. ”
The old mayor stretched out his hand to stop the discussion, "Xiaoqiang, if what you said is true, please invite the savior out." If not, accept the punishment. ”
Xiaoqiang immediately ran to the bedroom door and knocked lightly, but the door opened by itself, and there was nothing inside. Xiaoqiang was stunned, how could it be, could it be that everything last night was a dream?
Just as he was asking, an exclamation came from outside, "Look, there's a moon in the sky." ”
"Is it really a savior. The old mayor fell to his knees in fright.
A group of people knelt on the ground, and the ball of light slowly dispersed, revealing two figures, one blue and one red.
Xiao Qiang had also rushed out, and when he saw the two people in the sky, he was sure that he didn't dream yesterday, it was all true.
In the sky, Blood Dance looked at the stars, "Must this way of appearing?"
Xingchen smiled: "Otherwise, how can we make them believe that we are the savior?"
Blood Dance sighed, "Okay! Can we go down?" and the two of them fell from the sky and stood in front of the old mayor.
After helping the old mayor up, Xingchen coughed dryly and said, "We were sent by the moon god to help you. ”
The old mayor was about to kneel down again, but he was supported by Xingchen with phantom sounds, and he couldn't kneel down.
Xingchen continued: "Mayor Town, don't kneel anymore, quickly find a suitable place and tell us the specific situation here. ”
The old mayor nodded repeatedly, "Okay, okay, let's go, go to my house." After speaking, he waved his hand at the watchman, "Xiaoqiang, you can come over too." ”
Half an hour later, at the old mayor's house, a banquet was set up in the hall, and the old mayor began to tell the situation in Yulong Town. In addition to the necessary survival materials, the people of the whole town also need to prepare the items on the list, and transport them to the crocodile lake fifty miles east of the town before the unitary hour of the evening every day. The list is sent by the crocodile monster at the beginning of each month, and if the list is not fulfilled one day, the crocodile monster will come to the town to kill it at will, and increase the amount of supplies required for the list. In addition, in order to prevent the people in the town from uniting to revolt, the crocodile monster stipulated that they were not allowed to go out after one shift every night, and now the people in their town have no time to renovate their houses, and the whole town looks dilapidated.
At the end, the old mayor bowed his hand to the stars, "If the savior is willing to help us, I am willing to give my family property, a box of gold and a box of treasures." Two children had already come up, one holding a suitcase. There was still a bit of dirt left on both chests, which should have just been dug out of the ground.
Blood Dance glanced at the gold and treasure disdainfully, "One hundred taels of gold, I don't think it's twenty taels! ”
The old mayor was a little puzzled, obviously it was a hundred taels, how could it be said that it was twenty taels?
In this regard, Xingchen has already transmitted a voice to the Blood Dance, "The Blood Dance is actually a hundred taels. ”
Blood Dance was puzzled, "How could it be?" she reached out and took the gold chest in her hand, "It's really less than twenty taels." ”
Xingchen Voice explained: "Haven't you noticed the gravity here?"
Only then did Blood Dance realize, "The gravity here is about one-fifth of that of the Deer Chasing Realm, what does that mean?"
Xingchen nodded, "Yes, the gravity here is too small, only one-fifth of our original world. The quality of gold remains the same, but the weight varies depending on gravity. ”
Blood Dance showed a puzzled expression, "I know that gravity is different, and the weight of objects is different. But I don't know what the quality you are talking about?"
Xingchen continued, "Remember what I said about the ruins! Speaking of which, Xingchen remembered one thing he had overlooked, the gravity of the spiritual world seemed to be a little smaller than that of the deer realm. Just as he was thinking, a cry for mercy came to his ears.
"Please the Savior to atone for your sins. "It's the old mayor, he said, and he prepared to kneel.
Xingchen could only interrupt his thoughts, and hurriedly reached out to help the old mayor, "Mayor please, we don't need this kind of thing, my companion is just looking for a reason to refuse this gift." ”
When Blood Dance heard this, she stood up, "I'm full, goodbye." With that, he walked out of the hall and flew into the sky.
The old mayor sat down and continued to feast with the stars.
During this time, Xingchen asked, "What is the strength of the cultivators in the town?"
The old town chief sighed, "At present, my son, who is hidden in the nearby mountains, has the highest realm, and is the third order of the battle commander realm. ”
The stars also understand this. He searched the memories of Xiaoqiang, and knew the division of power in this world. Although the people of this small world also practice Reiki, they will transform Reiki into fighting aura.
Also because of gravity, this ichthyosaur world is a lower world than the deer world. The corresponding boundaries are more clearly divided. Just like an ordinary family, the calculation of money is measured in yuan, while the calculation of money in the case of a rich family is measured in tens of thousands or billions.
Like the Zhulu Realm, below the Innate Realm, it is divided into four levels. Bloodline Martial Artists, Elite Bloodline Martial Artists, Master Bloodline Martial Artists, and Acquired Realm Bloodline Martial Artists, each realm is divided into upper, middle and lower perfections.
And this ichthyosaurus world, the realm corresponding to the innate realm is the realm of the king of war, under the realm of the king of war, it is divided into five levels, and the subdivision of these five levels is more obvious, soldiers, teams, captains, generals, and commanders. Each level is subdivided into nine levels. Legend has it that there is a war emperor above the war king, and the war emperor has nine levels.
The stars correspond to the reason why the Battle King Realm corresponds to the Innate Realm, and both can fly in the sky by themselves. But he didn't know how high the combat effectiveness was.
There seems to be a master of the War Emperor with higher combat effectiveness in this world, but Xiaoqiang doesn't know about it at all, so Xingchen doesn't know either.
Xingchen then ordered: "Mayor Town, organize the manpower, set up a defensive team, and in addition, ask your son to come back and be the captain of the defense." ”
The old mayor looked embarrassed, "If we do this, our people who remain in the crocodile territory will die." ”
Xingchen laughed, "It's simple, you immediately organize a convoy, and I'll take them to save your people." ”
The old mayor was a little puzzled, "I can organize a convoy, but I don't understand why I should organize a defensive force? Aren't you a savior?"
Xingchen stood up, "I'm a savior, yes, but I'm only responsible for dealing with strong enemies, and weak enemies are your own responsibility. Before we set out, the moon god told us: If you are a bred of bastards, we do not need to save you. ”
The old mayor was stunned as if he heard a thunderbolt from the sky, and after a while, he slapped the table, "Okay, let's do it." This frightened Xiao Qiang, who was burying his head in hardship.
Half an hour later, ten carts stopped outside the east gate of the town.
Xingchen was standing on the city wall, and ordered Blood Dance on the side, "You don't need to do anything here, I'll explain everything else to the mayor." You just need to protect yourself, you know?"
Blood Dance waved her hand again and again, "Got it, you go!"
The stars immediately flew down to the gates of the city and left with the convoy. Blood Dance stood on the city wall, inexplicably angry, and stomped directly. The walls at your feet were shattered directly.
Xingchen, who hadn't gone far, turned around and said, "Blood Dance, you light." Everything here is far less solid than the Deer Chase Realm because the gravity is too small, and if you feel free, the destructive power is very great. With that, he continued to drive the convoy forward.
Blood Dance was still flying in the air with a puff, and complained in her heart: "What! Don't be intimate before leaving, Xingchen, why are you so unenlightened." Hmph!" It's a pity that the stars who have gone far can't hear her heart.
At this time, Xingchen, who was sitting in the first carriage, looked at the beautifully decorated carriage and exclaimed, "In the whole town, these carriages are the most brand new and exquisite. ”
Xiao Qiang, the watchman on the side, immediately echoed, "No way, these carriages are used to deliver supplies, if they are ugly, those crocodile monsters will not be satisfied." ”
Hearing this, Xingchen sighed and patted Xiaoqiang on the shoulder, "In the future, you will all use new and exquisite utensils." At this time, he had already made up his mind to help the townspeople of Yulong Town, not for the sake of training tasks, just as a human race, he couldn't sit back and watch the people here being bullied by foreigners.
The road to the crocodile's territory has also been maintained by the townsfolk for a quick and smooth delivery of supplies. So the convoy reached the vicinity of the crocodile territory in just half an hour.
Xingchen shouted, "All the generals and those above the realm come here. "The convoy of ten cars, twenty people, only three came. With a wave of his hand, Xingchen appeared with three mortal swords and commanded, "You three protect the convoy." After a while, when they heard my order, they came with a convoy to pick them up, you know?"
Originally, when the three of them got the knife, they looked crying and mourning, they thought that Xingchen was going to rush in with them, but when they heard that Xingchen asked them to answer, they immediately had a happy expression and nodded in agreement.
Xingchen didn't say anything to the rapid change in the faces of the three people, after all, the people here have been enslaved by the crocodile monsters, making them resist, almost breaking their cognition. If you want to activate their will to fight, it will take some time to work hard.
