When Feng Bingwen's demon-slaying sword passed through the county town at his feet and slit the neck of a man wearing silk and satin, the record that appeared in the heavenly book made the only worry in his heart.
Disappeared without a trace.
In the history of the development of the human race, scenes similar to what he saw before his eyes had been staged countless times, and even more tragic scenes had also occurred before.
But for people who live in a prosperous age, exchanging children for food is too far away, and some people may even question that such a tragic thing cannot happen.
Feng Bingwen had similar doubts in his heart, but when he saw it with his own eyes, scenes that were beyond what ordinary people could accept, what followed in his heart was anger and endless killing intent.
.
During famine years, when there is not enough food, and under the pressure of hunger, people will turn their attention to things that they would not look at in ordinary times, such as grass roots, tree bark, and even soil. But there are still some people who will turn their attention to
similar.
Under the pressure of survival, no matter how cowardly a person is, they dare to set foot on taboos. Feng Bingwen, who has never truly felt hunger, cannot fully understand the feeling of abandoning everything for a bite of food.
He can't understand it, nor can he understand it, let alone accept it. When people abandon morality, emotion, and self-worth and just survive for the sake of survival, can they still be called human beings?
Feng Bingwen didn't know, and didn't want to think about it. He just raised the killing sword in his hand that was supposed to kill monsters, and then slashed at the buyers who were choosing vegetables in the county market.
And after he only read the first record that appeared in the Book of Heaven, he did not continue to read it, nor did he pay attention to whether his actions were causing bad karma.
Even if there was, Feng Bingwen didn't care anymore. After all, the Book of Heaven recognized his behavior, even if it was only part of it, the good deeds were the best proof.
The immortal wielded the killing sword against the mortals, even if it was only part of it, it was a complete massacre. When the blood filled the county, the survivors screamed and shouted in horror.
Maybe at this time there will still be some irrational people forced by hunger to covet the corpses lying on the ground. After all, to a certain extent, they can be regarded as a kind of meat food.
But it is estimated that it won't be long before people in this county will be able to figure out why these people suddenly fell to the ground and turned into corpses.
Feng Bingwen didn't expect much else. He only hoped that the blood could deter these people who were tortured by famine and stick to the bottom line of being human.
Maybe there will be people who disagree and try to move towards the taboo again, but at that time Feng Bingwen is powerless. He has done everything he can. Whether it is famine or food, it is not something he can solve. He is just a
Just ordinary human beings.
When Feng Bingwen left this county, the county had become extremely quiet. Although Feng Bingwen only killed a very small number of people, when everything returned to calm, the rest of the people lost the ability to speak.
His eyes were dull and he didn't even know what to do.
"What a nonsense!"
The moment Feng Bingwen swung his killing sword, a voice that hated iron but not steel kept chattering in his body, almost never stopping for a moment.
"Even if you can't stand it, you can't do this!"
"If you can't stand it any longer and do nothing, that would be even worse!"
Feng Bingwen smiled and was in a very good mood. He just glanced at the Book of Heaven secretly. Judging from the increase in good deeds, the Book of Heaven seemed to approve his behavior. Although he didn't know what the criteria were, it should be consistent with his behavior.
concepts are consistent.
"You kid, why don't you listen to my advice?"
The Five Elements Heavenly Wheel was very angry.
Although he has been given the responsibility of protecting the Tao, his Tao-protecting immortal weapon can only defend the Taoist Master from external threats. However, he can only persuade the Taoist Taoist himself with words and deeds.
power to interfere with its conduct.
After all, he is just an immortal weapon. Even if he is psychic and has wisdom that is not inferior to that of humans, he is essentially just an artifact, and as an artifact, he can only be used with permission.
When Feng Bingwen wanted to suppress him, he didn't have the ability to do it.
"I am now young and in my prime, let me do whatever I want for once!"
Feng Bingwen smiled freely, but his expression soon returned to calmness. The various tragedies being staged on the dry land beneath his feet made it difficult for him to maintain a comfortable mood.
"Eh!"
Feng Bingwen's figure suddenly stopped as he flew past in the sky.
He arrived over a large city. Perhaps because of its strategic location, there were granaries and the like in this city, a place for storing grain. Although most of the passers-by looked hungry, it was still in good condition. At least it did not appear in the market.
The so-called dish man.
"Above Heaven"
Of course, these are not the most important. The most important thing is that Feng Bingwen discovered that the incense in the temple here had not scattered, and there were gods collecting the incense.
"It seems that the situation has not reached an irreversible point yet!"
When he discovered that there were gods in a city not far away that was probably at the county level, even Feng Bingwen couldn't help but smile.
Because he finally found someone who could inquire about the information. Those ordinary people who were struggling in the disaster before were asked to know what they could learn. Only beings at a certain level can know this time.
The hidden story and root causes of catastrophes.
"A disciple of Taishang Dao is here to visit. The city emperor is here. Can I meet him?"
Feng Bingwen fell from the clouds, hiding his figure from the eyes of mortals, stepped into the main hall of the temple, looked up at the majestic statue, and shouted.
"A disciple of Taishangdao?"
A confused voice sounded, and then a divine light emerged from the statue of Wenjian next to the statue of the City Emperor, and the originally stiff body began to soften, revealing the texture of flesh and blood.
It's just that this scene is invisible to the people who come to the city emperor's temple to offer incense. In their eyes, the statues in the temple are still the same as before. Only a few people will feel that the statues seem to have become a little more agile, but that's not the case.
That's all.
"Exactly!"
Feng Bingwen cupped his hands.
"Do you have proof?"
Judge Wen looked up and down in front of him. The Taoist priest, who seemed to have not yet reached his crown, had doubts, vigilance, and a bit of expectation in his eyes.
"certificate?"
Feng Bingwen frowned slightly, then smiled. A magnificent aura emerged instantly, disappeared in an instant, and soon disappeared without a trace, just like an illusion.
But the judge in front of him couldn't help but flicker, as if his body was like a boat teetering in the storm, but it proved that the scene just now was not an illusion.
"Is this certificate enough?"
Feng Bingwen looked at Judge Wen standing on the altar with a smile. At this time, his divine body had stabilized and had recovered from the impact of the magnificent aura just now.
Feng Bingwen did have the certificate as a Taishangdao disciple, but it was for the equal disciples of the Immortal Sect to see. The priest attached to the county and city emperor in front of him did not look down upon Feng Bingwen, so he took the certificate
When he came out, he had no way to determine whether it was true or not. In contrast, it was more appropriate to show his own strength.
"I didn't know that the Immortal was coming, but I didn't meet you from afar. I hope you will forgive me. I will go and report it to the Emperor of the City!"
Although he had recovered from the impact, the judge still couldn't hide his fear when he looked at Feng Bingwen. This was the most powerful monk he had ever seen since he became the incense god. Although he had seen it before
I have heard about it before, but now I finally know it.
"There is no need for the title "Shangxian". I just hope that the Lord Judge will inform you as soon as possible. I have a lot of doubts in my heart along the way!"
"Hold on!"
After the words fell, the civil judge did not wait for Feng Bingwen to respond. The originally agile statue returned to its original coldness and stiffness, but the majesty and solemnity did not change much.
Feng Bingwen did not wait long in the temple. Soon, accompanied by bursts of divine music, a golden rainbow broke through the void and spread in front of Feng Bingwen. Priests surrounded a great god several feet tall.
Appearing in front of Feng Bingwen, the bright yellow divine light filled the palace.
"Feng Bingwen, a disciple of Taishang Dao, has met the Lord City Emperor!"
Seeing the large formation in front of him, Feng Bingwen observed the etiquette and bowed in salute.
"It turns out that I am an expert from the Taishang Immortal Sect. I, Gao Shitian, have missed my welcome. Please forgive me, Master Immortal!"
Although Feng Bingwen's attitude was very upright, the county emperor did not dare to be scornful at all. He raised his palm slightly, gave it a virtual support, and reported his secular name in response.
"Your Majesty, the Emperor of the City, I must be serious. I should ask you not to think that I, a man from the mountains, have the temerity to come and disturb you!"
"What did the immortal master say?"
The atmosphere of the first meeting was extremely peaceful, which was quite similar to Feng Bingwen's expectation. There was almost no conflict between the Immortal Way and the Shinto Way.
"I heard that the Immortal Master has something I want to ask for advice. I don't know what it is?"
"There is a severe drought in front of us. I wonder if the city emperor knows the reason?"
"Know a thing or two!"
The Prince of Juncheng was silent for a moment, and then answered slowly.
"Please let me know, Lord City Emperor!"
Feng Bingwen's eyes lit up. Although he had already informed his sect, given the extent of his sect's decline, he didn't know when he would be able to send out manpower to deal with this matter.
He can investigate in advance and then directly pursue Ben Shuoyuan and resolve the matter cleanly. Even if he cannot be the main force, he can just make an assist and do some good deeds, and there should be no problem.
"Is the Supreme Immortal Sect also interested in this matter?"
There was some doubt in the eyes of the City Emperor, but the questions he asked were the inherent prejudices of most practitioners against the Supreme Way.
"Lord City Emperor, what are you talking about?"
Feng Bingwen was a little bit dumbfounded.
"But as far as I know, aren't the disciples of Taishang Dao Sect always aloof?"
"This is a false rumor. Besides, even if I, the Supreme Taoist, are transcendent, no matter how transcendent, I am still the Taoist sect of the human race. Such a big thing has happened in Donghua Continent. As a disciple of the Supreme Taoist disciple,
He is also a human monk, so how can he be so unreasonable as to ignore him?"
Feng Bingwen asked with a smile.
"I also ask the Immortal Master to follow me to the Dharma Hall!"
After hearing what Feng Bingwen said, the City Emperor looked at Feng Bingwen with a serious look, then turned slightly to the side, moved out of the way, and invited Feng Bingwen to go to his territory.
"please!"
Feng Bingwen was not polite. Even though it was his first time meeting the city emperor and he didn't even know his details, and the surrounding situation was a bit strange, he still dared to enter his territory calmly and accept the invitation.
Without it, a skilled artist would be just bold!
Of course, the most important thing is that he has a psychic magical weapon to protect his body. Even if there is any problem, it will save his life and there will be no problem.
Seeing Feng Bingwen's posture, the high officials from various departments who gathered around the city emperor looked at each other with unexplainable expressions in their eyes.
Leaving aside the wonderful sights in this city emperor's legal domain, Feng Bingwen followed the city emperor's guidance and went to his palace to take a seat.
"Master Immortal, do you want to ask about the drought?"
"Yes, when I first met, I wanted to use my magical powers. But after some attempts, I found that I was unable to do so. The magic power was too weak to save the people here from the fire and water!"
"The Immortal Master is joking. If you want to force rainfall in such a disaster, I'm afraid you can only ask the emperor to take action!"
Hearing Feng Bingwen's words, the emperor of the county and city was a little bit dumbfounded. He wanted to use magical power to use magical powers to change the atmosphere of this place. What kind of cultivation would it take?
"So if you want to solve the drought, you have to find the root cause. Only in this way can you get twice the result with half the effort."
"That's good, but I'm afraid I can't give you a good answer!"
"Don't you, the City Emperor, know something about it?"
"It's just some speculation!"
"Want to hear the details!"
"Hanban!"
The emperor's expression was serious, and his words were somewhat solemn.
"I suspect that a drought demon has appeared and is wreaking havoc!"
"Is there any evidence?"
Feng Bingwen asked with a frown on his face. Of course he had guessed that it was such a vicious creature, but finding the source of this disaster was not based on guesswork. Evidence was needed.
"The Immortal Master wants evidence, which is too difficult for me. I am just a small city emperor. If I really run into Hanbao, I may not have the chance to sit here and communicate with the Immortal Master!"
"I didn't think twice about it!"
Feng Bingwen smiled sheepishly, and it was indeed a bit embarrassing to ask a county and city emperor to provide evidence of the raging drought demon.
"However, when the disaster first spread, I went out to investigate and saw some extremely terrifying things from a distance. It was also after that investigation that I never set foot outside the city emperor's legal domain.
It’s just that the immortal master is visiting today, so I came out to see him now!”
The emperor of the county city did not pay attention to this, but mentioned something again. When Feng Bingwen heard this, he immediately became interested and asked quickly,
"May I ask what kind of horrific things your lord has seen?"
