Chapter 108: Difficult Decision, Where to Go The sky gradually brightened and the sun rose. The darkness has receded, and all evil has gone away. Only some monsters were able to walk in the daytime, and they still seemed reluctant to leave the numerous blood foods in the village, but in the end they retreated unwillingly and hid in the mountains and forests. And after a night of terror and killing, the people in the village finally saw the sunlight, releasing the grief and panic that they dared not release in the darkness. The sounds of wailing and crying were heard one after another and never stopped. Last night, they faced the evil of darkness and the butcher knife of the "Guardian", and fell into endless panic. Many familiar faces, including family members and neighbors, died in the darkness of last night. More importantly, the little deity that they had worshipped devoutly until now has fallen. Since Jinliu Manor was built, the little god has been here to drive away the darkness and protect the people.
Most of the people living near Liuzhuang had previously been wandering around in various clean places, having no fixed place to live, exiled in the world, starving, and struggling to survive. Fortunately, we came here, gathered into villages, and built houses, where we can be protected from wind and rain, settle down and live forever, reproduce, and live without worries for the rest of our lives. However, they did not have a few years of peaceful life. The death of the little god meant the demise of Jinliu Village. Their homes were destroyed and they were once again displaced. The cries and shouts continued. A dark cloud of sadness hangs over the ruins. "My child..." The man with a weather-beaten face stroked the child beside him and said in a trembling voice: "Your mother and I have been exiled to the Pure Land of the World for half our lives. I know the miserable and desolate life there. Life is worthless." "I thought you were born near Liuzhuang, and you would live a peaceful and worry-free life, marry, have children, and have many descendants." "But now, even Jinliu Village has been destroyed." "Little God..." One after another, people stumbled to the willow tree, kowtowed, and cried out in unison. - Lin Yan walked out of Jinliu Manor, exhaled slowly, and turned his head to look at General Pei. "How are these people going to be resettled in the future?" "I'm not sure, Jinliu Manor is quite special." General Pei said, "At least in Qifeng Prefecture, the birth of Jinliu Manor is an unprecedented feat..." "Or can it be considered an attempt?" Lin Yan said. "Almost. Although Pei is not from Gaoliu City, I can still see it clearly based on my limited experience." Pei Xiong sighed and said, "The birth of Jinliu Manor is that the high-level officials of Qifeng City want to create a more stable 'pure land' to expand the living area of the human race!"
It is close to the size of Liuzhuang and is considered a medium-sized clean land. But its advantage is that it can be expanded, and in the future it will surely become a large clean land or even a large city. Moreover, the "natural pure land" in the world has mysterious talismans. No blood can be seen and no one can die. Otherwise, it will be an ominous sign! But near Liuzhuang, with the protection of the little god, this ominous sign was eliminated. "Speaking of which, if Jinliu Manor was placed in Licheng, it wouldn't even be as good as half of the market town in the outer city." Pei Zongqi Envoy sighed and said, "The Little God is here, and there is also a Guardian of the Heavenly Supervision Department, a manor owner, three incense burners, many elite soldiers of Gaoliu City, and members of the Heavenly Supervision Department. This lineup... should be enough to defend Jinliu Manor." “Robbery…” Lin Yan exhaled, his eyes filled with murderous intent. Pei, the flag bearer, sighed and said, "If Jie Jin were a direct enemy, at worst, we would draw our swords and fight to the death." He rubbed his brows and said, "But they are not monsters, not aliens, they were born among humans." "They have always been by our side. Sometimes, you and I just follow orders, and maybe we are working for Jie Jin!" "According to Pei's understanding, they were not the evildoers who were trying to destroy the human race from the beginning!" "Perhaps today, he is still a hero who fights against evil spirits to defend the human race, but perhaps tomorrow, he will have already been killed and tried to destroy the city." "They claim to be following the will of 'God', but which god it is remains a 'mystery' to this day!" General Pei sounded somewhat dejected and tired when he said this. Lin Yan didn't say anything else, but turned his head and looked towards Jinliu Village. Pei Zongqi Envoy thought for a moment and said, "There have been large clean areas in the past where accidents occurred. As for the human race inside, they will be resettled elsewhere." He paused and said, "Usually, Qifeng City sends people and asks nearby cities to assist." "Most of the time, they are resettled in small or medium-sized clean areas in various places, but after that, they can only fend for themselves and it is difficult to help them anymore." "However, sometimes, when the city is expanding, we would consider taking in a group of people, but such cases are extremely rare." "My father was also exiled in the Pure Land. He was able to enter Li City by chance and did hard labor to build the city wall. He was then qualified to settle there." Pei Xiong whispered: "I was born in Licheng. Although I have never been exiled to the Pure Land, I have heard some of my father's past experiences. It was quite bitter." He didn't describe too many stories involved, just used these three words. It's quite bitter. "Ah." Lin Yan nodded slightly, looked forward, and said slowly: "Someone is coming." A group of cavalry came quickly, about thirty people. Gaoliu Inner City, Left City Guards. They were scattered in various clean places in order to search for the murderer who assassinated the city lieutenant Wang Yuan.
The quiet place where this group of cavalrymen stayed last night should not be far from Jinliu Village, so they were able to detect some movements. After daybreak, they quickly gathered together and rushed towards this place. "The Left City Guard of Gaoliu Inner City?" General Pei said this, looked at Lin Yan, and seemed to want to ask something, but in the end he didn't say much. He probably wanted to inquire about the killing of the city captain Wang Yuan. But this matter was too serious and concerned life, so he suppressed his curiosity. "I'll go meet them." General Pei said this and looked at Lin Yan. Lin Yan nodded slightly and walked towards Liuzhuang. The Left City Guards went out of the city to search for the captives, and there were quite a few of them. The leader of this group of cavalrymen was about forty years old. He should be a captain in the army and had strong internal cultivation. The commander-in-chief Yuan Tongye also led a group of elite troops, but for some unknown reason, he went to Fengcheng. - At this moment, it is six hundred miles away to the east of Liuzhuang. The giant eagle fell on the edge of the cliff, covered in blood and its feathers flying. The inspector was breathing heavily, blood was dripping from his hands, and his eyes were solemn. A hundred steps ahead, he saw an old man in a disheveled state, with his shoulder pierced by a long knife and nailed to the rock wall. "Uncle-master, now that you are awake, follow me back to Qifeng City." The inspector said with heavy breathing. "I don't want to die." The old man stretched out his hand, pulled out the long knife from his left shoulder, threw it on the ground, and shook his head slightly. "This time, you were harmed by Jie Jin, which triggered the hidden dangers of the ancient law and caused you to make a big mistake." The inspector had a complicated look on his face, and he persuaded: "There are reasons for this. I will plead for you. With the newly revised law, your cultivation at the peak of the Refining Essence Realm, and your decades of contributions to the human race, I can save your life..." "Uncle Master, I am old. How many years can I live?" The old man laughed at himself and said, "You killed over a hundred people yesterday, and you have accumulated a lot of blood debt. Even if you give a lighter punishment, you should be locked up in prison for at least twenty or thirty years? Let Master Uncle die of old age in prison? Or wait until the day when the evil spirits attack, and then let Master Uncle guard the most dangerous place, so that he can make meritorious contributions to atone for his crime and offset the guilt?" He pointed at his face, laughed, and said miserably: "Master uncle has been catching criminals in the Heavenly Guards for his entire life. In addition to Jie Jin, there are also many powerful human beings who have committed crimes... You want me to be locked up with them for the rest of my life?" "Uncle Master, you taught me that if a person makes a mistake, he must accept the punishment." The inspector shook his head slightly and said slowly: "Either you kill me today, or I take you back." "If I kill anyone again, I won't be able to maintain my sanity." The old man shook his head and said, "Either you kill me with your own hands, or... just let me go."
He kicked the knife on the ground and said in a low voice, "I know what you are worried about. I can promise you here that you will never fall into the abyss of disaster in this life! From now on, Master Uncle will flee far away, leave Qifeng Mansion, find another place, hide his name, and live out the rest of his life." The inspector looked at the knife under his feet, silent, with a complicated expression. The old man took a deep breath and said, "Considering that I have fought for the human race for many years, killing demons and evil creatures outside and killing robbers inside, I will spare my uncle for this achievement..." He slowly stepped back and said, "Finally, tell your master that Jie Jin has mastered the secret technique of mobilizing the 'Ancient Hidden Danger'... From now on, we, the old generation, are all threats to Qifeng City, so let him be decent and step down from his position this year." "Uncle, walk slowly!" The inspector finally spoke, stepped on the ground, and the knife was lifted up to his chest. He looked indifferent, holding the knife in his right hand, and immediately cut off his left hand. Then he kicked it and fell off the cliff with his hand broken. "What are you doing?" The old man looked shocked and angry. "I feel uneasy when I release a serious criminal privately." The inspector exhaled and said with a smile: "But I lost my hand and can't keep you. At least I can deceive myself..." He sheathed his sword, turned and walked towards the direction of the giant eagle, saying: "I will report today's events truthfully and accept the punishment! Uncle Master... remember your promise, don't enter the Jiejin, otherwise I will definitely kill you!" "madness!" The old man suddenly yelled, "How stupid! You are such a worthless thing, you are wasting the human race's cultivation of you!" He gritted his teeth and wanted to catch up, but seemed to remember something, finally sighed, turned and left. - Lin Yan practiced martial arts in the manor, and after practicing the perfect Vajra Zhuangpo magic, he gained four points of cultivation. Plus the murderous aura of killing the owner of the manor. At this moment, his cultivation has further improved. Cultivation: Refining Essence Realm (3181/3650) + After noon, a lot of noisy sounds could be heard outside Liuzhuang. The people sent by Gao Liucheng have arrived, and there are quite a few of them. "Impermanence...Impermanence...Where are the people?" The voice of General Han came from outside, shouting loudly. I have a lot of worries today and have been talking all day, so I started writing late. I will just write 6,000 words today. I am writing the next chapter now! (End of this chapter)
