Chapter five hundred and forty-four immigrant living space (1)
The team of villagers escorted by the men in black robes moved very slowly. Li Mu actually tracked them halfway, but in order not to alert the enemy, he did not take action immediately.
When he saw the young man and the old man being brutally beaten, he almost couldn't hold it back. If Xiao Momomaru hadn't stayed calm to stop him, he might have appeared to fight.
But when the large army arrived at Kusanagi Cliff, Li Mu finally saw clearly the sinister intentions of the men in black robes, and the humiliating postures of the villagers reminded him of his past life.
His nation had also been so oppressed and wantonly massacred by the invaders. The rows of villagers squatting on the ground in front of him, their eyes full of horror, was not a repeat of that period of history in their memory.
Just when Li Mu couldn't bear it anymore and was about to rescue these innocent villagers, the young man's cry that echoed through the sky also made him freeze in place.
Seeing the young man relying on his mortal body and relying on his blood and unyielding courage to kill a black-robed man in the Danjie Realm, Li Mu felt that there was also a resonance deep in his heart.
Isn't that just how it is to cultivate immortality? If you choose to escape or even wait for death because of your own weakness, you will never be able to climb to the highest peak.
The villagers on Kusanagi Cliff had originally chosen to welcome death in silence, but the young man's cry completely awakened their desire to survive. Facing an enemy as powerful as a god, some people finally stood up and wanted to resist.
"Isn't it the same for those national heroes in previous lives? When the first cry is heard in the darkness, a spark of fire rises. One day, it will surely start a prairie fire."
Taking a deep breath, Li Mu, who was hiding in the woods, stood up. He knew the gap between monks and mortals. Even if these hundreds of villagers came forward today, they could not be the opponent of the black-robed man in the Transformation Infant Realm.
But their struggle has been seen by God, and the blood they shed will not be shed in vain. He, Li Mu, will not allow such a thing to happen, even if he takes action in advance, he may lose the clues about Yamata no Orochi.
But the young man who lifted up the shackles was worth it, and the villagers who used their flesh and blood to help their companions resist the attack were worth it!
The man in black robe only felt his eyes blurred, and his angry blow was easily resolved. The opponent fell from the sky, with an aura as vast as the sea, and his sword-shaped eyebrows and starry eyes were heroic. He was clearly a monk at the level of the Infinite Realm.
"who are you……"
Before the other party could finish speaking, Li Mu's Starfall Sword had already been unsheathed. He had never been kind to the members of the "Blood" organization. The pure Yang sword energy flashed across the sky of Kusanagi Cliff like the shadow of a startling giant.
In an instant, two men in black robes were decapitated.
The sword was sheathed, and the entire cliff fell into a long period of silence. The massacre that was about to break out just now was instantly disintegrated by Li Mu.
And the young man also stared blankly at the man in front of him, as if he was trying to distinguish whether Li Mu was a human or a god, because he could kill three demons instantly. In his knowledge, only true gods could do this.
can do it.
"Gods... gods, I... we..."
The young man was so shocked that he could not form words normally, and most of the other villagers on Kusanagi Cliff had not yet recovered from the threat of death. Only the old village chief came to Li Mu tremblingly on crutches, and then spoke
Kneel down on the ground.
"I am the village chief of Taoyuan Village. Thank you for saving me. We are willing to do anything to repay you for saving your life."
The old man understood that the young man in front of him was a monk who was much more powerful than those black-robed demons. As a mortal, he had been following the rules of this fairy world all his life, which was that they were always inferior to the monks.
So he knelt down without hesitation, not only to be grateful, but also to represent the villagers of Taoyuan Village, conveying humility and obedience. After all, the old man still didn't understand how the powerful Li Mu could care about his ordinary life and death.
Seeing the village chief kneeling down, the other villagers also came to their senses. In an instant, they all fell to their knees on the Kusanagi Cliff. This made Li Mu, who originally wanted to help the old man up, not sure what to do.
"Grandpa, please don't say that. We monks are meant to fight against the strong and help the weak. Anyone who encounters what happened today will not hesitate to draw a sword to help."
Xiao Momowan was still quick-thinking and stepped forward to help the old man up. As soon as she opened his mouth to rescue him, Li Mu quickly agreed, saying that it was just a matter of effort for him to save him.
Only then did the villagers realize that they had really been saved. They were crying with joy and hugged each other. The family members formed a circle and kept bowing and thanking Li Mu and Xiao Taomaru.
Although the man was saved, the subsequent arrangements made by the villagers put Li Mu in trouble.
Taoyuan Village has been destroyed, and the villagers are faced with the dilemma of being displaced. In addition, Li Mu has been hasty in taking action this time. It is only a matter of time before the "blood" organization discovers that these "sacrifice" have escaped.
It can be said that as long as the villagers still live on Penglai Island, they will always be enveloped by the threat of the men in black robes. Li Mu understands this organization's tendency to retaliate for its flaws.
If they discover the traces, what awaits the villagers of Taoyuan Village will be an even more tragic ending than today. It can be described as life worse than death.
"Now you know what the problem is? He was quite handsome when he made the move, but are you in trouble now?"
Xiao Taomaru on the side obviously saw Li Mu's predicament. She had previously prevented Li Mu from rushing to the rescue because of various considerations. It was not difficult to save people. The difficult thing was how to keep these villagers away from the black-robed man for a long time. threaten.
Li Mu couldn't think of any good solution in a short period of time, so he could only lead everyone away from Kusanagi Cliff.
After many days of torture, the villagers in Taoyuan Village were basically in a very weak state, but they still supported each other on the way. It was not until Li Mu found a remote and safe forest clearing that they began to build a temporary camp.
As night fell, Li Mu and Xiao Taowan sat in front of the bonfire, holding the hot soup handed over by the old village chief, and gently put it into their mouths. It was so delicious that they almost cried.
The strong adaptability and construction ability displayed by the villagers of Taoyuan Village amazed them both.
However, in a short time, they used local materials and built more than a dozen decent thatched houses. Two of them were particularly elegant and were intended to be used by Li Mu and Xiao Taowan.
"Village Chief, to tell you the truth, a war is about to break out here, and those men in black robes may also come to seek revenge on you, so you must leave Dong Penglai as soon as possible and go to West Penglai to rebuild your home."
In the end, it was Xiao Momomaru who spoke. Although she was telling the truth, even she knew the paleness of this suggestion.
How a group of unarmed ordinary villagers crossed the border to go to West Penglai during a period of raging war, and how they avoided the pursuit of the "Blood" organization and the obstruction of East Penglai. These questions have no answers.
"Thank you two adults for considering it for us. It doesn't matter. After this time, we have all figured it out and will not give up easily. As long as there is one person alive in Taoyuan Village, we must build a new home."
The old man's words were very soft, but extremely firm. All the Taoyuan Village villagers in the camp also held the hands of their family members and nodded to Li Mu and Xiao Tao Wan.
"I will also lead other people in the village to practice martial arts. If someone comes to bully us again, we will fight hard."
After the young man took the healing elixir given by Li Mu, he was no longer in serious trouble. When he heard the old village chief's words, he stood up and patted his chest, saying that he would definitely protect the village.
people.
Holding the still warm soup in his hand, Li Mu felt that his eyes suddenly became a little moist, and suddenly a sudden thought emerged from his mind.
