Chapter five hundred and sixty second moving forward
Luowei City is one of the main roads leading to the Holy Mountain, so the city is very lively. There are many caravans coming and going, and it is not surprising to occasionally bump into one or two on the road.
In addition to Luowei City, we have to pass through five cities along the way before we can reach the Holy Mountain. However, these five cities are far apart, so there are some buildings like small towns or inns in the middle.
Of course, there are also forces like Mount Jialuo, and there are quite a few of them.
Therefore, the teams passing by along the way are all guarded by strong people. Basically, there will be at least one Soul Realm in each team, and the number of people in the team is also very large.
It is extremely rare for Zi Chen to have only three carriages and no guards around him.
The caravans I met along the way were all wary of the group of people after they arrived, and they basically would not interact with them.
Necessary vigilance is still necessary.
Moreover, they will never allow outsiders to join in during the process.
Because on this road full of opportunities and dangers, many things have happened. Some things are almost unimaginable, but they happen to happen.
There was once an extremely famous caravan that met a team that had been attacked on the way. There were only a few people left in it. They looked very pitiful, so they took them with them on the way.
Unexpectedly, those poor people were actually in disguise. After gaining everyone's trust, they administered a strange poison one night, which reduced the combat effectiveness of the caravan guards.
In the end, the caravan was bloodbathed and all the guards in the team were killed, but the leader of the guard survived. The few people he kindly took in lost their cultivation and only survived.
It is said that it was to repay his kindness.
No one knows what happened to the leader of the guards, because there are too many versions, but since then, there has been an unwritten rule on this caravan route, no more people will be added to the caravan midway, regardless of
No matter how many blue crystal coins you give, or how pitiful you look, don't accept it.
Beside the bonfire, Ouli chuckled and said: "Do you think that guy is stupid? Can't he just take care of himself? He has to worry about other people's affairs. So what if he is spared a life by kindness? Can he live a better life when he goes back?
A stable life?”
After hearing this story, everyone fell into silence.
After encountering the caravan's warning during the day, Ori told everyone such a story.
Zi Chen added a handful of firewood to the bonfire and said, "That's not a good intention at all, it's pure malice."
Several people looked at Zi Chen one after another.
Zi Chen said: "If the guard leader loses his cultivation, he will be worse off than dead. After he returns, he will have to deal with the aftermath of his dead comrades and be responsible for his employer. Bankruptcy himself should be the best outcome."
"The so-called good intentions don't exist at all. Those guys are using this method to humiliate him and humiliate his kindness. In other words, they want him to live a life worse than death and spend the rest of his life feeling guilty. Maybe one day the other party will be dead.
If you can't hold on any longer, you'll commit suicide."
"That's right, Old Tang said the same thing."
Ouli nodded and asked, "What about you? If it were you, how would you choose at that time?"
Zi Chen fell silent.
Ouli looked at the others again, "What about you, if you were the guard leader, what would you choose at that time?"
"Definitely not. I haven't survived myself. How can I save others?"
Noah said directly without any hesitation.
This is in line with his character. After all, he was once a leader, but he was also the leader of a tribe.
Lan Hongyi thought for a while and then said: "You can let them follow the team and give them some food. They don't have to join the team."
Lan Gumeng and Shanya also gave similar answers.
Lan Rui shook his head and said: "I won't save them either. In order to save a few people and kill more people, I won't do such a thing."
Ouli looked at Zi Chen.
Zi Chen said: "It's not the guard leader who is at fault, it's the bad guys who took advantage of the guard leader. If it were me, I would definitely kill those bad guys."
Ouli said: "So, your choice is to save people, right?"
"You must not have the intention of harming others, and you must have the intention of guarding against others. I will not let down my guard."
In fact, there is a precedent for this matter. In Yi Yuan's case, Zi Chen chose to help him, but did not really believe him.
This was not a profound question, nor was it an assessment, it was just a casual chat, and everyone soon changed the topic.
Since the Luo family's power was wiped out, those forces like Mount Jialuo have also been clarified, and the sense of security for the caravans traveling between them has been greatly increased.
After advancing for five days, Zi Chen encountered no other dangers except the passing caravans.
Half a month later, they came to a small town. This was a temporary resting place. The place was not big. There were three inns and some shops where people could buy and sell.
The town is surrounded by a very ordinary fence. No one charges at the entrance, so anyone can come and go at will.
Ori directly set up the carriage and entered this small town. He planned to rest here temporarily.
There were many people passing by, but most of them were groups of over a hundred people. Those like Zi Chen were rare, so many people along the way cast strange looks at them.
Ouli arrived outside an inn, Noah and Lan Rui walked down, and they were the first to go in.
Soon a man came out and drove the carriage to the backyard.
This inn is not small. The first and second floors are for food, and the third and above floors are for living.
As a group of people walked in, everyone's eyes were looking here for a while. After a cursory glance at Zi Chen and others, they fell on the three women.
For a time, the three people became the focus.
Noah pointed to the second floor and said, "There are private rooms above. Let's have something to eat first."
Zi Chen nodded.
When going upstairs, Noah whispered: "There are a lot of people here. There are only three rooms left. I have booked them all."
After eating, Lan Rui went to inquire about some information. So far, there is no news about the opening of the Holy Sky Mirror on the Holy Mountain. It can be seen that the information obtained by the Lan family is first-hand.
We only stayed at this inn for one night, and the group continued on their way the next day.
Just as I walked downstairs, I heard the news that a caravan was bloodbathed, leaving no one alive, male, female, old or young, and nothing but corpses.
The diners downstairs were talking a lot and seemed worried at the same time.
"It's the Blood Crow King. It must be the Blood Crow King. He's back again. Only he has this strength!"
