Chapter 32: Road Encounters Bandit Slaughtering Village
Duguyue stayed in Yongtai City for another two days. On the first day, he memorized all the low-level martial arts and books he got from the Wu family in the spiritual world.
Practice the first of the three swords to perfection.
Now Duguyue's ambition can be said to be fulfilled. Finally, she no longer has to risk her arms being weak for a while every time she fights and gamble with the seals of heaven and earth. Now she is very eager to meet an opponent of the same level to try her skills.
strength.
Although Duguyue has fought hundreds or tens of thousands of battles with teaching virtual images in the spiritual world, and his fighting skills have reached the level where all the martial arts he knows can be easily learned, but after all, he has not yet been able to compete openly and openly with a fellow student in reality.
Realm warriors have fought against each other.
In Tianwu World, the sky is round, although Dugu Yue is only on the edge of the northern region among the four regions and five continents of Central Continent, the distance between the cities here is also hundreds of thousands of miles away, even if it is one
A warrior in the Samurai Realm travels at full speed. It would take about three days to cross this stretch of road, let alone reach King Rock's royal city. Even if he doesn't eat, drink or rest, at Dugu Yue's full speed, it would take a week.
for a long time.
In this world, walking alone like Dugu Yue is very dangerous if you don't have some skills. Monsters are not only found in the Monster Mountains. As long as you are outside the city, you may encounter them in some wilderness at any time.
until monsters appear.
However, the monsters are second best, and the most dangerous ones are the human race like ourselves, whose human hearts are sinister, and almost all of them cannot escape the three desires of greed, anger, and ignorance.
When encountering a stunning beauty like Du Guyue with fair skin, beauty, and enchanting figure, evil thoughts arise in her heart, and the people who covet her are like crucian carp crossing the river, there are countless people.
Duguyue asked Vice President Huo Qubing for a map to the next city, Lianyun City, and then set off alone.
There are not only cities in this world. Basically, there are many villages not far away from the cities. This is a normal situation. The villages rely on the cities to survive. When the children in the villages grow older, they will go to participate.
Assessment of the martial arts academy established in the city.
Just like the Qingshu Martial Arts Academy in Yongtai City, although it was only established by the city lord and has limited teachers and resources, for the children in the surrounding villages, such a martial arts academy is something that they all want.
A holy place to squeeze in.
As for the establishment of the martial arts academy, it is naturally impossible for everyone to join, so the martial arts academy will also assess the talents of the candidates and select the best.
After leaving Yongtai City, using the Light Body Flowing Cloud Step, Du Guyue's figure was still elegant and graceful even at extreme speeds. She had an ethereal and ethereal feeling as if she was about to fly at any time, without causing any agitation.
dust.
But after all, Duguyue was only in the Wuhou realm, and her body's vitality was limited. Naturally, she couldn't use all her vitality on the road. At least 80% of her vitality should be left to prepare for any possible crisis.
In this way, Duguyue was going fast and slow, and it took two hours to see the first village from a distance. However, what was surprising was that this village actually emitted raging black smoke.
When Dugu Yue arrived at the village, she finally saw the situation of the village clearly. There were ruins burned by the fire everywhere. The houses made of mud mixed with thatch and stone had collapsed and exposed a
A blackened wall, where one could see corpses dressed in coarse linen and linen clothes, fell to the ground.
Dugu Yue was not stupid, and based on what she had heard before setting off, she could tell at a glance that this village must have been unlucky enough to be robbed by bandits and massacred.
This made Dugu Yue unhappy. She couldn't understand the crooked and unimpressive maps of this world. She finally found an inhabited village and made up her mind to ask for the way to Lianyuncheng. Unexpectedly,
This village was actually massacred by a group of vicious bandits.
Not to mention the fact that she had no one to ask and had to continue looking for the next village, she just said that when she saw these vicious bandits who were persecuting the people, Duguyue decided to go out and do some heroic deeds.
When Dugu Yue was on Earth in his previous life, he especially hoped to be a chivalrous and righteous hero. Otherwise, he would not have bought a toy long sword to take with him. Of course, if he did not buy a toy long sword, he would not be able to do anything.
I can't buy it anymore.
However, in his previous life, Guyue had a dream of becoming a hero, but he did not have the strength to become one, and the society at that time did not allow heroes to exist.
But it is different now. This world is originally a martial arts world, which will not be checked and balanced by socialism. It also has sufficient strength. Now it has encountered the vicious gangsters who massacred the village. Du Guyue's chivalrous and righteous heart has been silent.
, the desire to eliminate harm for the people suddenly arose again.
Duguyue once again observed the ruins of the village, which was still emitting thick black smoke, and checked the condition of the villagers' bodies.
Duguyue is not a knowledgeable forensic professional, but based on the stiffness of the corpse and the burning and smoking conditions of the abandoned village fire, he can roughly establish some facts. The bandits who massacred the village should have been away for more than three or four hours.
time, otherwise the burned mud and rocks would not have been burned into that state.
This makes Dugu Yue a little disappointed. It is basically impossible to track people who have been away for more than three or four hours without knowing exactly where they are going and whether they have changed direction. Even if Dugu Yue
It is basically impossible to have divination and arithmetic. After all, her cultivation level at this time is still too low and she cannot use the method of tracing cause and effect.
However, Dugu Yue will never let go of this group of bandits who massacred villagers. Although the same thing is happening in countless places in this world, Dugu Yue cannot see it and cannot control it. Out of sight is pure, but here since
If she meets him, then she will get rid of this group of cancers that persecute the common people.
Duguyue could not continue to track the whereabouts of this group of bandits, but she knew that since this group of bandits had attacked this village, as long as they were not wandering bandits who lived all over the world, their mountain bandit village would not be far from here.
It is impossible for a village to rely on the city alone to survive. There must be other villages around it to help each other, so Dugu Yue plans to go to other nearby villages to ask how many bandits are nearby, and kill them all together.
Duguyue would not admit that she felt uncomfortable because her God-Zhancing Sword was only at the third level of the top grade, and wanted to upgrade it to test her own strength. She did this because she sincerely wanted to eliminate harm for the people.
Duguyue didn't know the distribution of nearby villages, so he could only use very laborious means to search in one direction.
Duguyue's luck was pretty good. After going in the wrong direction, she returned and encountered a dilapidated village for the second time. The seven or eight-year-old children in it were all sallow and skinny. It was obvious that they had not had enough to eat for a long time.
In this situation, most adults are relatively thin and weak.
There was even a village woman who took her child and begged for food from her neighbors in the village. However, in this village where even her own family did not have enough to eat, she was turned away time and time again, which made Dugu Yue a little bit intolerable.
If something needed to be solved by force, she would not mind stepping forward to help when she was passing by. But as for the issue of food, even if Dugu Yue gave it to her this time, what would she do next time?
Yue can't stay here forever. If he leaves her money and a lot of dry food, it will not help her, but harm her. The villagers who have been hungry for a long time will never be more pitiful than themselves just because she is a member of their own village.
You can resist the temptation of food.
Dugu Yue was very curious. Although people in this world did not have the concept of growing food, even if they were looking for some low-level herbs, they could go to nearby cities to exchange for food for survival. Why would they rather wait for death than wait for death?
He wanted to survive on his own, so he stepped forward and grabbed the village woman who was knocking on doors begging for food.
At first, when the village woman was pulled by Dugu Yue, she was a little anxious, as if she was afraid that when everyone closed the door, not only her, but also her children would starve.
Until Duguyue took out two pieces of dry food, the village woman never took her eyes away from Duguyue's hands.
Duguyue didn't have any idea of rare food, so she directly gave the two pieces of dry food in her hand to the village woman.
I saw the village woman carefully put away one piece, divided the other piece into two pieces, took out the small piece and stuffed it into her mouth, and handed the big piece directly to her five or six-year-old child.
Dugu Yue really couldn't imagine how many days they had gone without eating. Even though she felt hungry when she first traveled through time and became a beggar, she was only physically hungry and didn't have much awareness of being a beggar.
Now let Duguyue eat dry food. Unless she has to, she would rather go hungry and catch game in the nearby mountains than eat it.
In fact, the taste of dry food is really like chewing wax. Even some dried meat without seasoning will definitely not be eaten by anyone unless they are hungry.
However, dry food is only for filling the stomach, not for people to enjoy it. Therefore, although Duguyue knew that her journey to King Rock's Royal City was quite far and she had brought a few days' worth of dry food, she had just set out today, so she still
Not eaten, many days of dry food were lying quietly in the space ring.
However, Dugu Yue had no intention of actually eating dry food all the way there. After she bought the dry food, she took a bite out of curiosity, and then she immediately vomited it out. However, there are unforeseen circumstances, and no one can go hungry.
At that time, because the dry food was stored for a long time, she prepared some in case of emergency, but she really didn't expect that it would be used by others so soon.
After the village woman wolfed down the dry food, Duguyue began to ask: "There should be a lot of herbs and wild vegetables in the mountains around here, even some small beasts that are not monsters. Why don't you go there?"
What about self-reliance? Also, why is there not even a single adult male in your village except for children?"
Yes, Dugu Yue discovered that except for seven or eight-year-old children, there was not even a man. If there were no men, how could they give birth to children?
Or, in other words, what happened to those men that caused them to all disappear en masse, leaving their wives and children behind?
Perhaps because Duguyue's words touched upon her sadness, the village woman hugged her four or five-year-old child tightly and shed tears.
It wasn't until a moment later that he began to slowly describe what happened to the village, which happened six years ago.
This village is called Chenjiacun, and all the villagers have the surname Chen. It was originally a very prosperous village. The men went out to hunt in the mountains, and the women were responsible for picking wild vegetables. Every family stored a large amount of food, and prepared some money every year.
, sending some seven or eight-year-old children to a nearby city to take the martial arts assessment.
Children who fail the assessment will also be taught some superficial cultivation knowledge, so that their trip is not in vain.
Some of those children who have studied well many years ago will stay in the city to find work and bring back some clothes from the city every year. Some will choose to go back to the village to marry and have children and help the village hunt in the mountains. After all, a person who has practiced martial arts, even if it is only the lowest level,
It is easy for a super warrior to hunt down some large beasts, and the other ordinary villagers can also sacrifice less. But all this happy life ended six years ago.
