When night fell, the wind and snow outside the tent stopped, and the little savage boy returned, only this time there was a look of shame on his face, because his hands were empty, and his shoulders were empty, and the savage woman did not say anything, but boiled a pot of hot soup, and somehow found a leg of mutton under the snowdrift, put some spices, and the four of them ate a meal in silence.

"You can only stay here for one night. ”

The savage woman put away the boning knife, looked at Xu Chen and added, "Because this is the rule of the winter ceremony." ”

Xu Chen expressed his gratitude, and then walked out of the tent with Duanmu Rong.

The two of them walked towards a snowy slope not far away.

At this time, the snow outside the tent had stopped, the wind and the clouds had dispersed, and the high black night dome was dotted with countless stars, and the starlight sprinkled on the white snow covered by the mountains and mausoleums in the wilderness actually reflected a faint blue light.

"From the capital to Yong'an, from Yong'an to the wasteland, I listened to some stories of savages on the way. ”

Xu Chen breathed in the cold and refreshing air outside the tent, looked at the silhouette of the dead tree faintly visible under the starlight in the distance, and said, "Do you know why the wasteland is called the wasteland?"

Duanmu Rong has lived in the Western Jin Dynasty for a long time, has never walked such a long way, and is very unfamiliar with this territory, listening to his question, he couldn't help frowning slightly, and after thinking for a moment, he said: "Isn't it because this field is very desolate?"

"Endless green grasslands, all kinds of beautiful seas, majestic Tianqi Mountains with evergreen forests, countless wild beasts live here, where can such a place be desolate?"

Xu Chen looked at her side face and said with a smile: "The wasteland is not deserted, the reason why it has been called a wasteland is because this beautiful wilderness belongs to savages. ”

Duanmu Rong looked into his eyes and asked, "What do you want to say?"

"Nothing. ”

Xu Chen said: "In the tent just now, you looked at me a lot, what did you want to say at that time?"

Duanmu Rong looked at him and said seriously: "I want to remind you that these people are savages and our enemies, you probe the enemy and deliberately make friends with the other party, but be careful not to forget your own position." ”

Xu Chen laughed, and after a pause, he looked at her and said, "What position should I stand on?"

Duanmu asked expressionlessly, "Of course the remnants of the Demon Sect are enemies. ”

Xu Chen looked at her puzzled and asked, "I've always wanted to know, why is the Demon Sect the enemy?"

Without waiting for Duanmu Rong to answer, he continued: "I think about it, the Demon Sect is just a different cultivation method from the orthodox Dao Sect, how did it become the embodiment of evil?"

Duanmu Rong frowned and was silent, staring at his eyes, as if he had seen something very strange, with sadness and sympathy in his eyes, and said, "Don't let others hear you talk like this in the future, and don't ...... Let me hear me. ”

Xu Chen found that the girl's expression didn't look like she was joking, and couldn't help but be slightly stunned.

After a long time, he stepped a dead branch into the snow with the sole of his boot and said calmly: "In the past, you didn't experience much in the world, but now you see so many ugly things, and you see those righteous and evil manifestations on the meadow, do you still believe that they are all good people?"

Duanmu Rong looked at the night stars above his head, blinked, his eyes were a little fluttering, so he looked a little confused, and said softly: "Even if you don't respect the court, you must always respect the way of heaven." ”

Xu Chen followed her gaze, shook his head and said, "It's really not interesting to be in awe of this kind of thing. ”

Duanmu Rong looked back at him and said very seriously, "But the evil deeds of the Demon Sect are always true. ”

In the cold of the snowy night, he said the Demon Sect and listened to the rumors.

Speaking of the Demon Sect, in short, it is just those evil and bloody pasts, murder, adultery, adultery, and evil spirits, Xu Chen listened to the girl's narration in silence, and did not vomit, because he had seen a more terrible picture of hell in his life.

Of course, he won't try to convince Duanmu Rong or other people who abide by justice, because sometimes there is no reason to talk about such a thing, and he can only try to dispel her vigilance from other aspects.

"Over the years, the Demon Sect has withered, and it has disappeared and never appeared, so why should you be so vigilant?"

Duanmu Rong looked at him quietly and said: "Disappearing does not mean that it does not exist, and even the Demon Sect hidden in the shadows is even more terrifying, especially now that the savage tribe is moving south, of course everyone must be vigilant against the resurgence of the remnants of the Demon Sect." ”

Xu Chen looked back at the lonely tent in the snow, thinking about the pair of savage mother and son in the tent, shook his head and said: "Although the Demon Sect was born from the Savage Tribe, you can't treat all the savages as people in the Demon Sect, and more than a thousand years have passed, maybe the savages have long forgotten what happened back then." ”

"In the savage tribe. ”

Duanmu Rong said seriously: "When the Chaoyang Kingdom defeated the savage tribe, the savages were forced to move north to the cold region, and there were many strong people in the Ming Sect who stayed in the south and scattered into the grasslands and the Central Plains countries, and they never stopped attacking the Northern Qiang and Western Jin Dynasty and other countries in the dark and in the light, which is the origin of the Demon Sect." ”

Duanmu Rong continued to say expressionlessly: "The strong man of the Demon Sect, after a period of time, will go to the Extreme North Cold Region with great difficulty, go to the Savage Tribe to select the heir disciples, the relationship between the Savage and the Demon Sect is extremely close, no matter how it is torn, now that the Savages have collectively moved south, how can the temple not be vigilant?"

Xu Chen was puzzled and asked, "Why did the Demon Sect do this? If you want to develop power in the world, shouldn't you recruit more disciples? Why do you have to go to great lengths to recruit savages as apprentices?"

"Of course, the Demon Sect will also develop the sect in the south, but their cultivation method forcibly accepts the heaven and the earth in the body, so evil and rebellious naturally cannot be allowed in the sky, ordinary human beings practice, it is very easy for the heaven and earth vitality to explode and die, and the savage has a special innate physique, strong as a golden stone, which is suitable for practicing the Demon Sect's exercises, so the Demon Sect will definitely choose to select disciples in the savage tribe, and the real powerhouse of the Demon Sect is also

The sky is full of stars occupying the night dome, and the starlight falls on the white snow of the field, which shines the night like dawn, and the air after the snow is extremely pure, so that the view is unobstructed, and you can see the tents in the middle of the snowfield from afar, where the wild tribe settles, quiet and beautiful like the snow country in a fairy tale.

Xu Chen looked at that place quietly, it was difficult to connect the tribe of savages with those dark legends, the long past, and the bloody history.

At this moment, a large black oppressive cloud drifted from the south, occupying all the sky overhead, and the starry sky was obscured behind it, and the whole world was blackened.

In the dark snowfield, near the hills, there are a few lonely tents.

In these tents, there are wild people who perform winter rituals like the mother and son.

Outside one of the tents, there were several rocks jutting out of the snow. Suddenly, the rock moved, and it turned out to be three people dressed in black, this black clothing was made of extremely thick and hard material, and the canopy behind them covered their heads and faces, so when they appeared silently on the snow, it was like a rock.

When the Central Plains countries were still planning an attack next spring, the Central Plains had already sent a large number of powerful and terrifying deacons to sneak into the depths of the wasteland.

The attitude of the Central Plains people towards the savages is very simple, exactly the same as Xu Chen's attitude towards the enemy - the dead savages are the good savages, and all the savages deserve to die, but these people have important tasks on their bodies, and they do not have the strength to challenge, nor do they want to anger the savage tribe with countless powerful warriors.

However, when they met these lonely savages tonight, they could hardly suppress the disgust of the darkness in their hearts, as if they smelled the fishiest smell in the world, as if the bobcat patrolling at night saw the rats that were burrowing, even though their faces were expressionless and silent as rocks, their hearts trembled violently with the most excitement, and it was difficult for them to help themselves.

Because of their education since childhood, the environment in which they have lived for decades has given them some almost instinctive mental reactions, and the brutal hunt for heresy is the greatest source of pleasure in their lives.

So when the three people who looked like black rocks walked into the lonely tent, they didn't think about the consequences of angering the savage tribe, whether it would cause harm to the mission of the temple, they just wanted to kill the source of the fishy smell, brutally kill these big rats, and thought to themselves...... The number of savages is very small, and as long as one more can be killed, it will also be a great contribution to the cause of justice.

A few slight voices rang out, and the surprise attack allowed them to successfully subdue the savage warrior while restraining his wife and son.

A deacon slowly took off his black hat, looked at the savage warrior with a blank face, slowly reached out and put it on the top of the man's head, and said reverently: "In the name of heaven, the judgment will be given." ”

An extremely faint but pure light, without any variegated color, lit up from under the palm of the warrior's hand, this light seemed to be able to penetrate the real thing, illuminating the bones in his palm clearly, and at the same time illuminating the swarthy face of the savage man, as well as the angry and unwilling look in the savage man's eyes.

The savage man's wife and children were dead on the ground next to him, with bloody tears in his eyes.

The next moment, the savage man died in agony under the divine radiance.

The three warriors slowly lifted the hats behind them to cover their faces, and walked out of the tent in silence.

The black clouds covered the stars in the wasteland, and the wind and snow blew, blowing and crackling their heavy black deacon robes.

In the shadow of the black hats, an eerie red appeared on the pale faces of the three deacons, and it took them a long time to calm their heavy breathing from excitement, and then walked off into the distance.

After a long period of history, they finally saw their fateful enemy again, and launched an attack on the other party that had not lasted for thousands of years.

Xu Chen and Duanmu Rong woke up almost at the same time.

They slept in the corner of the tent, a little clammy and cold, but the reason they woke up was not because they were damp and sleepless, but because they sensed that someone was approaching the tent and that the person who was coming was strong.

Duanmu Rong looked at him and said, "I feel the breath of a certain breath, it should be a person from the Divine Army." ”

Xu Chen glanced at the savage mother and son who were still sleeping, frowned and said, "What should we do?"

Duanmu Rong looked into his eyes, looking a little puzzled, and asked rhetorically, "What to do?"

Xu Chen spread out his hands and said, "If you fight, who will you help?"

Duanmu Rong frowned slightly, she had never considered this kind of problem, as a disciple of the Jade Xuanmen of the Western Jin Dynasty, it was natural that she should stand on the side of civilization, did she still need to think about it?

Xu Chen smiled and reminded: "Don't forget, we are now eating and living with the wild people, if the person who comes is from your Royal Academy, he will definitely think that we are traitors." ”

Duanmu Rong said calmly: "It can be explained that we are here to find out the enemy's situation. ”

Xu Chen said with a smile: "I don't believe they will believe this explanation. ”

The curtain of the tent was lifted, and the cold wind blew snowflakes into it, and three black figures like rocks looked silent and powerful under the light of the small fire in the tent.
