Chapter 438: Xu Qi's Change (2)
Warm congratulations to student Xiong Xiaobao for becoming the best deacon
After saying that, he took out the long sword on his back and started digging on the ground. Without saying a word, everyone started digging one after another. After a while, they dug a big pit and threw Wang Liang and more than a dozen corpses into the pit and buried them.
Get up. Then Xu Ziyan clapped his hands and stood up, walked to the incense cart again, unloaded the incense cart from the horse, and said:
"Dismantle the incense cart, use it to make a fire, and then let their horses go. Let's rest where we are for a while."
Everyone scrambled to break the incense cart into pieces, piled them together, and made a bonfire. Then they released the remaining horses. Everyone gathered around the bonfire, eating dry food and drinking
Catch water.
Xu Ziyan also said nothing about Xu Qi's decision to kill Wang Liang and others. Although Xu Qi did not discuss it with him beforehand, Xu Ziyan also knew that Xu Qi was doing this for the safety of himself. It was just Xu Ziyan's experience.
After a lot of things happened, I acted more closely to the Taoism. I didn’t want to change what I had promised. Even if it caused disaster, I just let it go. Whether it was a blessing or a disaster, I was a little tangled in my heart, but I soon made up my mind about this.
Let go of things.
"Captain, this space is really uncomfortable. You can't use spells, you can't fly, you can't use true energy, you can only use true energy. It's completely the way of cultivation for mortals in the secular world. Ten levels of cultivation can't reach the third level.
When can we leave this unfortunate place?" Xu Tianlang said gloomily.
"Wait until we go to Chen State and take a closer look," Xu Ziyan also said with worry.
The future is unknown. Although we passed through the dangerous forest and saw humans, who dares to say that humans are not dangerous?
midnight.
The bonfire in the middle has been completely extinguished, and the luxurious incense car has been completely reduced to ashes. The twelve people around the bonfire opened their eyes one after another, and the lights flickered in the night. After half a night of breathing, everyone had already
Recovered from fatigue.
"Set off"
Xu Ziyan gave a light drink and stood up. Everyone also stood up, got on their horses, and ran out of the col with a "hurrah".
It was quiet in the night and there was no one around. Xu Ziyan and others were galloping all the way. At dawn, pedestrians began to appear on the road. Xu Ziyan and others slowed down and walked along the official road.
After walking for another half day, at noon, the group arrived at Jinmen City, the second largest city in the Yang Kingdom. As soon as they entered the city, everyone clamored to have a good meal, so they did not bother to appreciate the luxury of Jinmen City.
So I found a restaurant and walked in.
Twelve people were divided into two tables and sat together. After the food was served, everyone did not speak and started eating and drinking in silence.
First, everyone has not had a good meal in the past few days. Second, there are many people in the restaurant and they are running away, so they try to stay silent. Third, they also want to hear what happened in Yang Guo recently.
So everyone was eating in silence and listening with open ears.
Sure enough, the surrounding conversations aroused the interest of Xu Ziyan and others.
"Brother, I heard that our army has entered Chen State's border."
"Yeah, it's funny to say it."
"What's going on? Is there anything funny? Don't hide it, brother, tell us."
A middle-aged man in a white shirt with a shrewd expression first picked up the wine glass in front of him, took a sip with a squeak, then put down the glass and glanced at everyone. Seeing that everyone was looking at him eagerly, he
He slowly spoke with satisfaction:
"Originally, our Yang State's army never thought of launching troops against Chen State so early. You all know that so far, there is a large amount of grain and grass stored on the banks of the Kinmen River in this city waiting to be transported to the front line, and some distance from our Kinmen City
Qinghe Town, ten miles away, is gathering troops heading to the front line. This shows that our Yang country is not fully prepared for war, and the war broke out very suddenly."
"Yeah, why is that?"
Several people at the same table asked one after another. Xu Ziyan and others looked at each other and pricked up their ears.
The man in white clothes picked up the wine glass in front of him and took a sip, then put down the glass, but did not speak, but looked at the empty wine glass. The man next to him hurriedly picked up the wine pot and gave it to the man in white clothes.
Pour full,
"Brother, you say it and we listen."
The man in white shirt was obviously very satisfied with everyone's attitude and continued reservedly:
"Actually, it cannot be said that our Yang State is not ready for war, it is just that it is not completely ready. So when the opportunity comes, our Yang State will go to war without hesitation."
"What chance?" asked the man who poured the wine just now.
"Just a few days ago, the Chen State sent an envoy headed by the Crown Prince of Chen State to our Yang State. Unexpectedly, the Chen State envoy discovered the secret of our Yang State's intention to send troops to their Chen State, and fled overnight.
We want to return to Chen State. So, our Yang State, while pursuing the Chen State Crown Prince, began to send troops to Chen State in advance."
"Hahaha……"
Everyone laughed wildly after hearing this, but Xu Ziyan and others felt secretly anxious and their brows gradually raised.
"well"
The man in white shirt sighed, and then focused everyone's attention on himself, pretending to be sad and said:
"Chen State was not fully prepared for Yang State to dispatch so many troops, so it was defeated all the way. However, our army was unstoppable all the way, the battle line was stretched too long, and there was a serious shortage of troops and food and grass. This is why our country does not have
Be completely prepared for the consequences of hastily starting a war."
"What should I do?"
"Isn't this the process of gathering troops and transporting food and grass to the front line?"
"Yeah yeah"
Everyone nodded and started drinking and chatting happily again.
"Brother," the man who poured wine for the man in white said, "I heard that there is a party being held at the City Lord's Mansion tonight."
"There is such a thing, because in the past few days, generals who have gathered troops and transported food and grass have gathered in our Kinmen City, and they will go to the front line in a few days, so our commander-in-chief held a party
Farewell to everyone."
"Brother, why do you know so well?"
"Nonsense, brother, my brother-in-law is the butler of the General Soldier."
"Oh" everyone looked at the man in white with envy and said: "Come on, let's toast to my brother."
"Do it, do it."
Xu Ziyan and others finished their meal silently, left the restaurant silently, and came to a deserted alley. Everyone looked at Ouyang Tieyi and said:
"The war has started, what should we do?"
Xu Ziyan thought for a moment and said softly:
"If the two countries go to war, even if we are masters, we will be drowned in thousands of armies. What's more, we can't reach the third level of the tenth level of cultivation. We still leave here quietly and go down the river to Chen Kingdom.
Bar"
"But if Chen State is destroyed, what will happen to us then?" Xu Qi said with a slight frown.
"Chen Guo and Yang Guo have been fighting for I don't know how many years, and they will be destroyed as soon as they say they will be destroyed," Xu Ziyan said lightly.
Everyone nodded in agreement, but Xu Qi still frowned deeply, and whispered:
"Captain, I think we have been deceiving ourselves. If we could get out of this space, I am afraid that the people in this space have returned to the vast continent for thousands of years. How can they still be trapped here? This is basically a
A space of no return.”
Xu Qi's deep voice echoed in the alley, and everyone fell into silence. In fact, everyone had always had this idea, but they were just unwilling to face it. Now that Xu Qi said it directly, everyone's hearts sank.
"What does Brother Qi mean?" Xu Ziyan finally sighed, knowing in his heart that Xu Qi was right. Returning to the vast continent has always been his vague wish. Or he has been avoiding facing the cruel reality. Now
Xu Qi's hope was shattered, so he had no choice but to accept this fact.
"If we really can't go back, then we have to face this space. The kings in this space are not us, but the Yang State and the Chen State. Because our distant ancestors' families are in the Chen State, we also
We can only go to Chen State."
Xu Qi's eyes swept over everyone majestically, and said seriously: "Whether it is the vast continent or this space, the laws of survival will not change. If we want to live better in this space, we must get more cultivation resources.
, we must find a strong backer, like the captain's Taixuanzong. And the Taixuanzong in this space is the emperor of Chen State.
Therefore, we must help the Chen State, and it is best to make a contribution and save the Chen State from the war. In this way, we will gain the attention of the Emperor of Chen State, which is the foundation of our establishment."
"How to do it?" Xu Ziyan asked softly.
"Let's leave the city first and go to the Kinmen River to see if we can burn their grain and grass. If we can burn Yang's grain and grass, we will go to Chen State with this great achievement, and we will definitely get the attention of the Emperor of Chen State. And with my exquisite seven-orificed
The power of the heart will definitely provide us with the best cultivation conditions in the near future. When we become stronger, we may have the opportunity to return to the vast continent."
Xu Ziyan sighed secretly when he heard Xu Qi's words. He glanced over everyone's faces one after another, and sighed again in his heart. Apart from Fengling'er, Yang Gai and Yu Bo, three people who had entered Taixuan Sect for a long time, including Han Jiaxiang
, everyone including Fang Ling and Mingdian, especially the people from the Xu family, had excited eyes shining with excitement.
Xu Ziyan knows that this is because they have not been in the sect for a long time, and the desire for power that the family has cultivated since childhood has not dissipated, and the foundation of cultivating immortals has not yet been settled. Unlike themselves, they have already understood a little about the great road.
The worldly power no longer attracted her at all. But in the end Xu Ziyan nodded and agreed with Xu Qi's opinion. Because she believed that a person who cultivates the Qiqiao Exquisite Heart must know what can be done and what cannot be done. If
If something really cannot be done, Xu Qi will not take risks.
But Xu Qi, who has not understood the Dao at all, where is his Dao heart? Will his state of mind be stable?
Chapter completed!
