Chapter 482 The Hunchbacked Old Man
Early in the morning, Yan Bugui packed a small package, got on an ox cart with the recruit candidates from nine other small villages, and drove to Wanhu Village, thirty miles away. On the oxcart, the recruits laughed and laughed together, and their mood was like the rising sun in the sky, bright and brilliant.
Only Yan Bugui sat on the carriage shaft, smiling and waving to Wu Qi and Su Qin.
Wu Qi waved his one arm and greeted Yan Bugui with a smile.
Su Qin put his hands in his sleeves and squatted on a stone on the side of the road like an old farmer in the countryside, staring blankly at the rising sun. After a long time, he sighed: "This trip is dangerous. This kid must not be targeted by those people from the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance you mentioned, otherwise he will not be able to die even if he has a hundred lives!"
Wu Qi said in a deep voice: "Great dangers bring great opportunities. Where in the world can there be such an easy and peaceful good thing?"
Tightening the bandage on his broken arm, Wu Qi said calmly: "I'm leaving to find my chance."
Su Qin stood up and muttered with a crooked mouth: "I have to leave too. I have to walk around and keep an eye on everything. The children finally got here. I am the only one who is in charge of the overall arrangement. I have to take care of them from time to time." 2. Tsk, I still don’t believe it, I don’t have a single coin on me, so I can’t get out of this Pangu continent and live in glory and wealth!”
Su Qin clicked his tongue proudly, and sneered: "I, Su Qin, have a sharp tongue, hum!"
Holding his head proudly, Su Qin put his hands on his back and swayed towards the south. In several villages thousands of miles away, there were also elites from the patrol department lurking with Yan Bugui. The morning breeze blew gently over Su Qin's body, and his tattered linen clothes turned over and over, like the wings of a black crow that had been burned bald.
Wu Qi glanced at Su Qin and said in a deep voice, "You have to be careful too. It's very uneventful here! I hope you can live until three years from now!"
Su Qin's figure froze slightly, then he nodded, without looking back at Wu Qi, he stepped forward and suddenly ran out more than ten miles away.
With a slight smile, Wu Qi looked up at the rising sun and walked slowly towards the north. He walked slowly, but each step could cover dozens of feet. The ground flew by beneath his feet, and before long Wu Qi had driven thousands of miles away. Taking Zhongning City as the coordinate, Wu Qi carefully avoided the cities and towns along the way and headed towards the bottomless abyss of Beiming.
Walking and walking, the Pangu Continent is vast and boundless. With Wu Qi's escape technique, he traveled for more than two months and only completed half of the journey. Running around day and night, Wu Qi's mental strength became extremely haggard. Finally, after crossing a desert filled with bottomless quicksand, Wu Qi found a grassland with rich water and grass.
He paused.
Sitting lazily with his back against a big stone, Wu Qi leaned on the side of a road, quietly watching the people coming and going on this road that ran through the entire grassland. The human race's ability to reproduce is extremely powerful. Pangu Continent is expanding at any time, but the human race seems to have filled the entire Pangu Continent. At least until now, except for those Jedi who cannot survive, Wu Qi has not found a place without human existence. .
This grassland has a radius of hundreds of thousands of miles, and this avenue is tens of thousands of miles long. There are densely populated towns and villages on both sides of the avenue, and countless caravans are passing through this avenue. Wu Qi lay on the side of the road, adjusting his breath to restore his true energy, and admiring the faces of the passers-by.
Their emotions, their every move, every word and every deed. These human beings are humble and insignificant, and do not have much power, but they are thriving and expanding their tribe in this magical land. Don’t beg in these people to feel the martial arts, the holy kings of heaven and earth, the creation of the holy king, the night-killing god, the divine seal throne, the demon-proud ninth heaven, the strongest abandoned young master, the great Zhou royal family general, the night-killing god, the divine seal throne, the demon-arrogant ninth heaven, the strongest abandoner The Royal Family of the Young and Great Zhou Dynasty used martial arts to move the universe and will kill the god and seal the throne at night. The most powerful and powerful people in the ninth level of the world, abandon the young and great Zhou royal family. The huge vitality that is vaguely consistent with the way of heaven and earth.
Wu Qi sat on the side of the road for three days and three nights. When he fell into a meditative state and realized the huge vitality hidden in mortals, Wu Qi suddenly felt that the ground beneath his feet shook, and Pangu Continent was like a living person. , this vibration was his heartbeat, and it was so vast and boundless that Wu Qi felt that the terrifying vitality was released from the ground of Pangu Continent and filled the surrounding area.
This vitality had always existed, but when Wu Qi sensed the infinite vitality within those mortals, he suddenly saw this purple vitality rising from the ground and filling the surroundings. This purple vitality covered the entire Pangu Continent, and merged with the starlight essence shed by the stars in the sky. It turned into a black and yellow gas between the sky and the earth, and it was hazy and unknown how big the area was.
The dull heartbeat kept ringing in Wu Qi's ears, and gradually, his heart began to beat along with the heartbeat.
Purple life merged into Wu Qi's body, and a tickling sensation came over him. The serious injury that Wu Qi had deliberately ignored healed rapidly. It only took a blink of an eye. Before Wu Qi had time to stop this change, the wound on his chest had already healed. The skin is smooth and clean as if there is no injury.
When Wu Qi woke up from this wonderful realization, his broken arm had miraculously grown. Now only the part below the elbow has not recovered. From the elbow to the shoulder, half of the arm has shortened. It grew in just a few breaths. And this new arm is a bit stronger than his intact arm. Pure ** power, without any spiritual energy bonus, is pure ** power enhanced.
Taking a breath of cold air, Wu Qi looked up at the sky. He seemed to vaguely understand what the skills practiced by the human race were about.
Just as he was lost in thought, a hunchbacked old man in ragged clothes, carrying a bamboo basket full of worthless common herbs and a sickle in his hand, was walking crookedly along the road. The old man's hunchback was very severe, and the U-ball on his back was almost the same as a hump. His eyes could only stare at the ground, and he could not even look straight ahead. He could only see the ground three to five steps in front of him.
Old, thin, with a long back, the old man's gray-brown skin is covered with age spots. This is an old man who is in his final years and not far from death. He walked slowly on the avenue, humming a very simple tune that felt extremely ancient. The trembling song came out with the wind, startling Wu Qi who was sitting in a daze.
Looking at the old man carrying a huge bamboo basket, Wu Qi sighed softly. He seemed to have found a more magical technique than the Dragon Transformation Sutra. At least the Dragon Transformation Sutra couldn't make Wu Qi's broken arm regenerate in such a short period of time. Wu Qi had already calculated in just a moment that if someone in the Divine Seal Throne could freely control this purple infinite vitality, then when he stood on the earth, his body would never be destroyed.
"Just like the earth giant in Western mythology, as long as you stand on the ground, you have infinite power!" Wu Qi clicked his lips.
The hunchbacked old man walked tremblingly past Wu Qi. He seemed to have severe pain in his waist. After walking a few steps past Wu Qi, he stood down, put his hands on his waist and hammered hard. After coughing a few times, the old man turned to Wuqi and sighed: "I'm old and no longer useful. When I was young, people said I could walk on my shoulders, but now I'm really old!"
Wu Qi was slightly stunned. He didn't expect that the old man would speak to him. He smiled and said to the old man seriously: "You are so old, why are you still running around? You should stay at home. Enjoy your happiness!"
The sun was high above the head, and the scorching sunlight was shining down from high in the sky. The hunchbacked old man was covered in sweat. The sweat dripped down his chin and splashed a few small water marks on the dry dirt road. The old man huffed and puffed, shook his head and sighed: "If our descendants don't live up to expectations, how can we stop? Enjoy peace and happiness?"
well. "
Sighing softly, the old man shook his head and continued walking forward.
Wu Qi looked at the old man silently and shook his head.
Standing up, Wu Qi was about to continue heading towards Beiming when suddenly the sound of rapid and thunderous hooves came from behind.
The sound of hoofbeats was still far away at first, but soon it was approaching quickly. In just two breaths, the sound of hoofbeats was at least ten miles closer.
Wu Qi turned around in shock and saw a group of wolf-like and tiger-like knights, riding a beast that looked like a buffalo, but its whole body was covered with blue scales and had two pairs of sharp long horns. The wind-like beast followed The road rushed over.
There were more than a thousand knights in total, all wearing heavy Kai scale armor, and their faces were covered by thick metal masks. Not even a trace of skin was exposed on their entire bodies. A giant bull mount that was over two feet long had a leather weapon pouch hung on both sides of its saddle, which contained a uniform eight-foot-long dragon war halberd. In the hands of the leading knight, on a three-foot-long flagpole, a large bloody flag was flying in the sky.
Pedestrians and vehicles on the road retreated to both sides of the road in fear, fearing that they would block the path of this group of knights and suffer disaster.
But the old man's sight was not good, and his hearing seemed to be a problem. He turned his head and looked around blankly, but could he see anything wrong? He knew something terrible was approaching just from the vibrations under his feet.
"Damn old man, get out!"
The cavalry rushed in front of the old man. The knight leading the team waved a long whip made of animal tendons as thick as a child's fist, and struck the old man with a fierce whip. The long whip made a sharp sound in the air, like a poisonous snake, lashing out at the old man.
Pedestrians around exclaimed, "With this whip, even a stone will be cracked, let alone this old man?"
Wu Qi frowned, his body shook repeatedly, and he rushed to the old man's side with several afterimages. He grabbed the old man's belt with one hand, took the old man and rolled away towards the roadside. The venomous snake-like whip passed over Wu Qi's body, and the earthy linen clothes on his shoulders were whipped into pieces.
"Hmph, you hid pretty fast!" The leading cavalryman snorted deeply. He did not stop pestering Wu Qi, and continued to run wildly with the large group of people.
Wu Qi hugged the old man and rolled to the side of the road, shaking his head in embarrassment. He didn't use any magic spells, but relied on his powerful physical power to perform this set of actions, so he was quite embarrassed when dodging.
The hunchbacked old man coughed violently, rolled his eyes, and sighed: "The world is not ancient, and one generation is not as good as the other. How could there be such disrespect for the elderly in the past? But now, I am only one step away from death, and you can't let me Will you have a good death?"
Wu Qi shook his head, avoided the eyes of passers-by, took out a few silver ingots and stuffed them into the old man's hands, and then left without saying a word.
But the old man suddenly took action and grabbed Wu Qi's sleeve.
