Thinking of the past, Yang Ze told Lu Qing and Bai Lun what he had heard from the gate guards of Yuyang City. When the two learned about it, they were quite surprised. It turned out that this drought had continued.
Such a long time.
Yang Ze shook his head. Thinking about it now, this drought is full of weird points. With their ability, there is no solution at all. It is better to leave it to the people of Wuyang Martial Arts Academy to solve it.
…
Qinjialing is located a hundred miles south of Yuyang City, surrounded by mountains on three sides, and has thousands of people living here.
This place, not to mention comparable to Yuyang City, is also a famous village within a radius of dozens of miles. However, in the past half a year, Qinjialing has undergone tremendous changes due to drought.
When Yang Ze and the others arrived at Qinjialing, the sky had already darkened. Qinjialing, shrouded by three mountains, looked extremely deserted in the dark night.
"Qinjialing used to have a large population, but I think now, if this drought has not been resolved, it would be good to have half of it left." Looking out the car window, Yang Ze could see both sides of the road.
The fields were all withered and cracked due to dryness.
"Look again, I always feel that this place is a bit eerie." Lu Qing looked away from the outside, his expression a little solemn.
Yang Ze was still scanning the scene outside. This was the first time he saw a village in this world. There was no light at all, and it was completely dark, as if it contained a fatal danger.
Only in a very far place can there be a little bit of red light, which should be the people in Qinjialing.
The wheels made a rumbling sound, and after a quarter of an hour, they finally arrived at the entrance of the village. However, the village was now extremely deserted, and no one came out.
Zhang Yongxu and Ye Yinling had already walked out, and Qin An stood beside them, looking a little panicked.
"Why is it like this? When I left three days ago, there were more than 400 people left in the whole village. The village chief also promised that someone would be on duty every night. Why is there no one there tonight?"
Qin An was a little unbelievable and shouted hysterically.
"You mean, Qinjialing wasn't like this when you left?" Ye Yingling asked Qin An. In the dark surroundings, even she felt a slight chill.
Qin An nodded and said: "There must be someone. Although many people died in the village, there are still about a dozen warriors left in the village. In order to guard against nearby wild beasts attacking the village, we have to send people on duty every night to be able to
rest assured."
"Junior sister, there is a lot of resentment and death here. I ask everyone to be careful." Zhang Yongxu stared at Qin An and said to Ye Yingling at the same time.
Ye Yingling nodded and retreated, but just as she walked away, a dazzling fire suddenly shot into the sky inside the village.
Qin An saw the fire and shouted loudly: "Well, that's Mr. Qin's home. Why is there a fire? Yes, there is a fire. There must be someone over there. Let's go and take a look."
After finishing speaking, Qin An ran into the village desperately. Zhang Yongxu paused, looked back at the convoy, and then rushed out.
Seeing Zhang Yongxu running out, Ye Yinling's expression changed, and finally she ran out the same way, and disappeared within a short time.
Elder Ma, who was sitting in a carriage, couldn't help but sigh, "These two people usually stay in the martial arts academy for too long, have too little experience, and do things so impulsively."
"Hahaha, they thought, let them go. Anyway, you are here to hold them back, so there won't be any problems. I think you might as well let everyone go out, just to see what happens to these seedlings.
In this way, let’s also see if the outer disciples of this class are qualified.”
Next to Elder Ma, there is an old man in white. This man is sitting there with a long beard, but he is not nervous at all.
"Go, everyone go into Qinjialing to investigate the situation, and remember not to go outside the village." Elder Ma's voice echoed in the convoy.
After receiving Elder Ma's order, there was a surge in the motorcade and everyone walked out.
Yang Ze and the others got off the carriage and looked at the flames rising into the sky in the village. The three of them looked at each other. Neither Lu Qing nor Bai Lun spoke, obviously letting Yang Ze make the decision.
"Don't act rashly. We will blend in with the crowd later and act according to the opportunity." Yang Ze quickly made a decision. At this time, a group of them, led by a group of outer disciples, also entered the village.
Walking on the muddy road in the village, people in front suddenly started running, and those behind them could only follow. After a short time, they could hear the noise of the crowd, and it was already on fire.
The place is.
Suddenly, Yang Ze's eyes suddenly shrank when he saw the scene in front of him changing.
He saw that a house in front of him had been burned to ashes, leaving only dregs on the ground. The fire did not stop, it was spreading to both sides, and the surrounding houses were also on fire at this time.
There were many villagers watching around, but because of the drought and no water, they could only watch the fire grow bigger and bigger.
Through the gaps in the crowd, Yang Ze could see Qin An at the front, standing there wailing non-stop, while Zhang Yongxu and Ye Yingling were right next to him.
"Master, why are you unwilling to take action? Quickly take action to save our village." Qin An shouted as he saw the fire getting bigger and bigger.
As soon as he shouted, the surrounding villagers knelt down and shouted for help to Zhang Yongxu and Ye Yingling.
Ye Yingling's face was very ugly. She didn't expect that things would turn to this point.
"Junior sister, take action to control the fire first. I don't believe that the thing inside will not come out when the fire is out." Zhang Yongxu said coldly, with a flash in his eyes, and he jumped up in the air.
Zhang Yongxu, who was flying into the air, smacked his right hand out, creating a strong wind that suppressed all the fire.
Ye Yingling, who was beside him, also took action boldly. Ye Yingling kept pointing out the jade fingers of her right hand, and shot out a series of fingers, creating an isolation zone where there was no fire.
Zhang Yongxu's body fell to the ground, the wind from his palm dissipated, and the fire that he had suppressed was about to burst out again.
"I just wanted to wait and see what tricks you had up to you, but since you don't come out, I can only force you to come out." While Zhang Yongxu muttered in a low voice, he pressed his right hand directly towards the ground, and a force came from him.
His palm erupted, extinguishing the fire immediately.
