It seemed as if the sky was falling and the earth was sinking.
After a long time, the surrounding area calmed down.
"how's it going?"
"Where's the old village chief? Have the bandits been beaten away?"
Villagers gathered from all sides again.
Ahem!
A violent cough attracted their attention. Not far away, a dark figure lay on the ground, with countless gravels weighing on his body.
"Old village chief, it's the old village chief!"
One person exclaimed, and everyone quickly gathered around.
Not long after, everyone ran away wildly.
The old village chief was already dying, his face was ashen, and there was blood in his eyes. He looked at the people around him and said: "Guo Yi is your savior, you... shouldn't drive him away. Once he leaves,
Xinghua Village is in dire straits."
"Wow!" the timid person was already crying.
The old village chief warned: "Run away quickly, I can't stop you anymore."
After all, the person dies!
"Old village chief, wake up." Some people cried loudly.
Not far away, the bandits seemed to have pushed through the black dust and stepped into the boundaries of Xinghua Village.
The eyes of the leading bandit flashed with blazing anger: "Kill everyone, hang the old man's body at the end of the village, and leave it there for three days!"
"Yes!" Behind him, dozens of strong and powerful bandits swarmed in, killing people and burning down houses.
He Yuxuan and others took a shortcut and fled as soon as the old village chief died.
The remaining group of villagers who were not innocent were brutally plundered and killed by bandits.
When the old village chief and his father died and He Yuxuan escaped, the so-called defenders of the village were vulnerable to the bandits.
"Don't, don't kill me!" Du Chun knelt down and begged for mercy, saying: "Brother, I know where Guo Yichao went."
"Where did he go?" the leading bandit asked.
"He...he went to the east road." Du Chun said hurriedly.
Hiss!
The bandit slashed with his knife, and the knife penetrated his body directly. Blood and internal organs spurted out, which was very tragic. Du Chun's eyes widened: "You...why do you want to kill me?"
"Because you are just an ant." The bandit smiled disdainfully.
He stood up straight and glanced around. The house was burning, and the villagers were in mourning and crying. He seemed to have received great satisfaction in his heart: "Kill everyone and take away the women and things."
"Boss, I found a beautiful girl." A bandit hurried over.
"Oh, where are the people?" the leading bandit asked.
Several bandits came with He Xiuxiu tied up. He Xiuxiu roared: "Asshole, let me go."
"Is it you?" The leading bandit looked at He Xiuxiu in surprise.
"You bastards, you are repaying kindness with vengeance. Xinghua Village saved your boss, but you destroyed Xinghua Village. Are you still human?" He Xiuxiu roared.
"It was Mr. Guo who saved my boss, not Xinghua Village." The leading bandit smiled contemptuously and said: "If Mr. Guo was still there, Xinghua Village would still have hope of survival. Now, you have driven Mr. Guo away.
What’s the point of Xinghua Village?”
"You!" He Xiuxiu was extremely angry.
"Forget it, since you saved my boss, I won't make things difficult for you." The leading bandit still had some conscience. He smiled contemptuously and said lightly: "Let her go."
"Yes!" Several bandits nodded.
He Xiuxiu was let go.
The bandits also left.
It left a place full of devastation, as well as the dead people there. There were more than 500 people in the village, more than 300 died, and less than 100 survived. These people hid in cellars and ditches.
Escaped.
They didn't come out until the bandits left.
"It's over, it's over, Xinghua Village is completely over."
"It's all because of that bastard He Yuxuan, he was the one who killed Xinghua Village."
The villagers were devastated. They had lost their loved ones and everything. They sat in pain in front of the burned-down house, holding their dead relatives and crying loudly. But they had never thought about why this happened.
"Xinghua Village is gone. Let's all go and flee."
"Where to go?"
"Go and make a living nearby."
…
He Xiuxiu returned home alone. She was lucky that her father was still alive and her house was still there. She secretly made a decision in her heart. She decided to take her father to leave Xinghua Village and go to Xianyun City.

Xianyun City.
There is a large auction house in the center of the city called the Ink Painting Auction House.
This is the largest auction house in Xianyun City. It is said that the items here are very high-end. Sometimes if you know the goods well, you might even be able to get a satisfactory spiritual weapon. Therefore, the ink painting auction house has attracted countless people from Xianyun City.
The cultivator of immortality.
In the auction hall, everyone gathered.
The seats at the front are reserved for distinguished guests from the auction house, as well as some people with distinguished status and status.
As for the seats in the back, they are basically just there to join in the fun.
In every auction, all the lots are basically taken away by the VIPs in the front row. As for the people in the back, they are generally not photographed. Even if they are photographed, I am afraid they cannot be taken away. Unless they are VIPs in the front row.
Something you don't like.
At this time, several major families from Xianyun City gathered together, drinking and drinking with each other, obviously coming for today's auction.
"Master Liu, you are well." A seven-foot-tall middle-aged man wearing a gray robe smiled slightly and said with a rosy face: "I didn't expect you to come to the ink auction house. Could you be doing that this time?
Is the flame stone coming?"
"Master Chen, it's a joke. It just so happens that I have a barrier in the art of elixirs. I want to use this flame stone to break through the barrier. Master Chen, won't you take advantage of others?" Master Liu said with a slight smile and preconceived ideas.
achieve one's own purpose.
"Haha, the head of the Liu family has embarrassed me." The middle-aged man laughed and said: "In this auction, naturally the highest bidder will get it, and those who ask for it will get it."
Obviously, the head of the Chen family is refusing to give in and is determined to get the flame stone that is the highlight of today's auction.
Just when they were all busy.
A white figure slowly stepped into the auction hall.
This person was none other than Guo Yi, who had arrived in Xianyun City for three days.
In the past three days, Guo Yi has been looking for something he wants, which is the flame stone. The flame stone is an extremely high-temperature stone produced from the center of the Xiuxian Continent 10,000 meters below.
Immortal cultivators can fly to the sky and escape from the earth, and can cross galaxies. But it is more difficult to go 10,000 meters underground.
Just like humans on earth, they can fly out of the earth, to the moon, and out of the solar system, but they cannot penetrate deep into the earth's crust and cannot enter the world thousands of meters underground.
If you want to refine the Barrier Breaking Pill, it is not enough to have the Recovery Grass and the Blood Purifying Vine.
Guo Yi didn't have Wenhuo and Wuhuo, so he couldn't reach the extreme temperature, so there was no way to refine the barrier-breaking pill.
