Li Ang was silent for a moment and asked in confusion: "Fifty years... can anyone survive?"

"Neng. The people live in the few remaining cities and royal cities, relying on strong walls and high barriers to resist the invasion of vines. The few farmlands can still produce food, and the poultry and livestock contaminated by demons are also full of growth.

Abnormal sarcoma grows as it is cut."

The expression on the mountain leader's face was a little strange, "It's just that people have become different.

Newborns have never seen clean drinking water or healthy animals. In their eyes, a "normal person" should have multiple arms, legs, and even multiple heads.

The remaining books and paintings show a human being with a head, two arms, and no scales or horns on his body, which is abnormal."

"..."

Li Ang narrowed his eyes. Taihaoshan named this phenomenon of collective dehumanization of a group of people's appearance as distortion, or demonization.

When a demonization event occurs in a certain area, it proves that the land has been contaminated by demons and needs to be burned with fire immediately.

In the most radical era of Taihao Mountain, the Inquisition would slaughter all the nearby villages because of a demonization in a certain area, and then set them on fire to avoid future troubles.

Because of this, when they discovered that the desolate people living in the deserted mountains would never become deformed or demonized, and would not infect outsiders, they were so shocked and stunned that they had no choice but to claim that the desolate people might be the only special case in the world.<

/p>

The mountain chief said slowly: "Once a large-scale demonization begins, it cannot be undone. On this point, the Academy and Taihao Mountain agree. If this situation were placed in the current Yu State, the Yu State would also resort to thunderous means.

Solved."

Li Ang immediately discovered the key to this sentence, "What if?"

The mountain chief said: "Even in such an environment, there are still fools who are making senseless resistance.

All the books have been soaked and rotted by moisture, and no one can produce paper anymore. Then carve words on stones and engrave the classics of Li State on stone tablets;

A very simple newspaper was made from animal skins and tree barks, and the news was written on it and delivered to every household;

Sneaking into the woods, avoiding poisonous insects and beasts along the way, and finally stealing honey, half-coaxing and half-deceiving the children to sit in the classroom and learn to read."

The mountain leader paused and said calmly: "If you were the first to discover Li Country, what would you do?"

Gudu Gudu.

The hot water in the teapot is boiling, emitting steam and hitting the lid.

The tea cup in Li Ang's hand is no longer warm, and a few tea leaves are half suspended in the water.

"...students don't know."

He thought for a long time and said truthfully, "The student just thinks that it is much better to try every possible means to become a human being than to be a cannibal with only a piece of human skin."

"Really?"

The mountain chief did not approve or deny, and continued: "The monk who first discovered Li Country used his supreme magic power to chop up the roots of trees thousands of meters deep underground and kill the tree demon.

And he took the still alive Li people out of the dense forest and sent them to an island in the Endless Sea."

"Then now they..."

"They're all dead."

The mountain chief said calmly: "Without the tree demon, the deformed body cannot survive. After two or three generations, the tribe will no longer be able to give birth to healthy newborns. The Li Kingdom completely perished, leaving only a record of their history on the island.

Stone tablet."

After that, he took out a palm-sized baby skull from his sleeve and gently placed it on the table.

The inside of the skull is covered with dense bone spurs, and a long and narrow gap opens in the middle of the eyebrow bone.

"..."

Li Ang hesitated to speak.

"Not all stories have their meaning. The tragedy that happened in Li Country is just a fragment in the long history since human beings.

Heaven and earth are unkind and regard all things as stupid dogs."

The mountain chief pressed his skull with one hand and looked up at the roof, as if he wanted to gaze through the wood and rocks at the eternal, dead starry sky.

Dang Dang Dang——

The bells of Haotian resounded throughout the academy,

The mountain leader came back to his senses, the cold expression on his face suddenly faded, and he said with a gentle smile: "Starting tomorrow, report to the Dongjun Tower. I will ask Ati to prepare the training venue for you."

Li Ang held the tea cup with a confused look on his face, "Ah?"

The mountain leader said in a relaxed tone: "Didn't Zhenfu Si notice you? If there is a war in the future, you will inevitably fight with enemy monks. You must learn to fight with enemies of the same level or even stronger opponents without using the threads in your body.

."

Last year, the states of Zhou and Jing issued proclamations, claiming that the state of Yu condoned evil and sycophants, raised demons in its palaces, provoked trouble provocatively, and created an atmosphere of war.

There is obviously Taihao Mountain’s instruction behind this.

Li Ang is very clear about his situation, and also knows that there are many people in the Yu Kingdom who don't want to see the war coming - they are worried about losing their vested interests, and they are also afraid of Taihao Mountain, which has not yet truly ended.

If Mo Si's existence is exposed, he will instantly become a loser.

"Yes."

Li Ang suppressed his doubts, put the tea cup back on the coffee table, bowed, walked out of the study, and closed the wooden door from the outside.

Squeak.

The study returned to silence, and the gentle evening breeze lifted the curtains, causing the light and shadow on the wall to change.

The mountain leader stretched out his charred right hand covered with scars from under his wide sleeves, gently picked up the baby's skull, and looked calmly into the dark eye sockets of the skull.

The evening wind blew into the house and blew over the skull, making a faint whimpering sound, like a whisper.

————

In the following period, the entire Academy and Yu State were mobilized.

A large amount of construction materials were transported to coastal areas for use in building breakwaters and city walls.

The shipyard works day and night to build ocean-going ships that can sail into the endless sea.

The villages closest to the seaside were relocated to nearby towns to reduce the pressure of defense deployment.

Doctors from the Academy took a Tianxuan to the East China Sea to observe Shuolu's migration and strive to delay or even eliminate the mutation. If there is no other way, they can only start from the edge of the ocean and hunt sea beasts to reduce the size of the herd.

Bang!

The loud noise echoed in the quiet valley,

Li Ang flew backwards and hit a cliff heavily.

While smashing out a human-shaped dent, it also shook the entire cliff.

Large areas of the cliff peeled off, and the rocks continued to fall, raising smoke and dust. Li Ang coughed and released his telekinesis, changing the falling trajectory of the boulders and throwing them forward.

Hugh——

A burly figure came running from the valley a hundred feet away, stepping on the water like walking on flat ground. Every time he punched, he could break the flying stones.

Li Ang held his breath and concentrated, spreading his mental power to the limit, like a radar, radiating the valley in front of him.

At the same time, release the palm of your right hand and let the Dragon Meteor Spear float in the air. The blade of the gun gently shakes, always locking the target's trajectory.

One hundred meters, fifty meters, twenty meters.

Li Ang suddenly clenched the palm of his left hand and activated the talisman previously buried in the ground.

Burning Talisman, Water Dragon Talisman, Electric Light Talisman, Extreme Cold Talisman...

All kinds of talismans were triggered simultaneously, covering a 20-meter-long fan-shaped area.

Even steel couldn't pass through this fan-shaped space unscathed, but that figure did it.

His body surface is lingering with the slowly flowing vigorous energy and blood. The flames are enough to melt stubborn iron, burning on the muscles and bones that have been tempered for thousands of times, leaving only a small black mark.

The most important thing is his appearance.

His beard and hair are tangled, and his face is ferocious, resembling the young generals of the country, Duke Yan, and Yan Yundang.

Boom!

At the moment when the figure ran over and punched Li Ang in the face,

The sand beneath his feet exploded again, and the violent impact caused by the blasting talisman finally caused his steps to deviate slightly.

Li Ang seized this fleeting opportunity. He used all his strength, waved his palm and pushed forward, and the Dragon Meteor Spear that had been accumulated for a long time burst out.

At such a close distance, aiming at the head is not a good choice when fighting a strong martial artist - the range of movement of the neck is too large, enough for the warrior to lean back and avoid the spear.

Therefore, Li Ang aimed at his spine.

The Dragon Meteor Spear flew whistlingly, and the phantom of a dragon's head looming over the blade of the gun.

Time seemed to slow down at this moment. The warrior raised his left hand and tried his best to block the spear.

The tip of the spear penetrated the palm of the hand. Driven by the entire palm, it barely deflected by an inch, and finally passed between the third and fourth ribs.
