Chapter 1154 Surprise

It seems that Li Zhirui has two choices, but in fact he can only choose to sneak across the border secretly.

Because several human dynasties have appeared in the Yuanling Realm, it is no longer the time when no one knew about it and there was no precaution.

On the contrary, because of the special nature of the human dynasty, whether it is the immortal way, the demon way, or the demon clan, the sea clan, they are very wary of the emergence of the human dynasty near their homes.

Perhaps the only one who is not too wary of the human dynasty is the divine way, because there is room for cooperation between the two sides!

Therefore, once the weak Great Zhou Dynasty plunders the population on a large scale, it will inevitably be noticed, causing the vigilance of the Dongyuan Sect and the Yumen He family, and even smuggling will have to be very careful.

And given the physical reasons of mortals, mortals who are too far away from the dynasty cannot be smuggled across the border, which is another big problem.

"National Master, I have heard from the elders that our ancestors fled here from Hongshuizhou in the northwest because there were too many local monsters, so they confined and raised humans as blood food. Can we try to attract the humans in this place?"

A general Zhang Yi, who looked only thirty years old and was burly like a black bear, echoed in the simple hall with a voice like a bell.

National Master is Li Zhirui's identity in the Great Zhou Dynasty.

And he told everyone that he came from the distant Daqian Dynasty and was responsible for spreading the humane method to help more mortals escape from the sea of ​​suffering and gain power, so as to occupy a place in the Yuanling Realm.

However, the people who made up the Great Zhou Dynasty were all elites. They might not doubt Li Zhirui's origins, but they must think that his purpose was not pure. After all, there can't really be a saint who is dedicated to others, right?

Speaking of which!

When Li Zhirui heard this, his eyes suddenly lit up. Yes, why did he only think about how to smuggle people from Dongyuan Sect and Yumen He Family and forget other nearby areas?

Especially the Red Water Province mentioned by General Zhang Yi, which is the hell of the human race. As long as there is a chance to escape, they will definitely not refuse!

Moreover, the joining of this group of human race will also be loyal to the Great Zhou Dynasty, after all, they are the ones who saved them from hell.

Speaking of which, it is not surprising that there is a gathering place of demon race not far from the two major human forces of Dongyuan Sect and Yumen He Family, because both sides can train their younger generations through this place.

But allowing the demon race to keep the human race in captivity is really a bit too much!

What kind of story is this, Li Zhirui didn't know at first, he only knew that the human forces nearby turned a blind eye to it, as if they couldn't see this situation.

After a deeper understanding, Li Zhirui had a vague guess.

It may be that the human forces nearby have secretly reached a tacit understanding with the demons of Red Water Province, allowing them to keep the human race in captivity, but they cannot launch a beast tide to invade various places.

In the eyes of those forces, some mortals who have nothing to do with them will die, which is far less important than protecting their own interests.

However, there is a premise, that is, the strength of the demon clan is strong and can threaten the nearby forces. Otherwise, there is no need to reach such a tacit understanding.

And from the various information collected by Li Zhirui, his guess is likely to be the truth.

And in view of the strength of the demon clan in Hongshuizhou, he also ran around to collect more information, and finally put them all on the table and asked: "What do you think about this?"

"There is actually a demon beast in the heavenly fairyland. No wonder the human forces nearby allow them to exist." An official couldn't help but exclaimed.

"Humph! The last time that evil beast appeared was more than a thousand years ago. Maybe it has now fallen and reincarnated."

The impulsive general Zhang Yi spoke with a loud voice, saying: "I think we can try it, otherwise we can only live in the mountains as savages, living in fear, worrying about our future, and always worrying that the monks will find us."

Zhang Yi, who seems to be reckless, is very delicate in his mind.

"We can rescue the human race in Hongshuizhou on the one hand, and try to smuggle some human races from the north and south on the other hand. We can do both and speed up the growth of the dynasty." Wei Changming, the old man standing at the forefront of the civil servants, spoke slowly.

He was the oldest among all the officials present. The years had given him rich insights, extraordinary wisdom, and calmness that most officials did not have.

Then many officials discussed a set of methods that looked very good.

Li Zhirui did not speak, or rather, as the Great Zhou Dynasty gradually got on the right track, he began to reduce the number of times he expressed his opinions, and most of the time he provided other help.

After all, his goal was to cultivate a humane dynasty that could contain the power of the Dongyuan faction, not a puppet. Moreover, he would leave sooner or later. If he was completely dependent on him, what was the meaning of the Great Zhou Dynasty he established?

Another important point was that Li Zhirui did not want to participate too much, and even finally disappeared because he did not want to be contaminated by too many causes and effects.

After all, he was a cultivator, and cause and effect were not only not good for Li Zhirui's cultivation, but would become an obstacle.

After they had agreed on a definite solution, he followed a group of generals to Hongshuizhou to rescue the captive human race, while another group of officials were responsible for smuggling.

Although their strength would be greatly weakened after leaving the dynasty and without the blessing of human luck, they could still barely deal with some low-level monsters.

Coupled with Li Zhirui's help, as long as they don't encounter monsters above the Human Immortal Realm, they can escape unscathed, and the monsters will think that the surrounding immortal forces have some plot.

…

As soon as they entered the territory of Hongshui Prefecture, it was clearly a vibrant scene of green water and green mountains, but everyone present felt a bone-chilling chill gushing out of their bodies.

The human skeletons scattered all over the mountains and plains instantly ignited the anger in their hearts, making their whole bodies burn, and they wanted to immediately destroy this place full of sin!

Even Li Zhirui, who was used to seeing life and death, was aroused with anger when he saw those white bones squeezed into his eyes.

‘I wonder how many bones have been swallowed up by this fertile land beneath my feet? One hundred thousand? Or millions? Or even more? ’

Before setting foot on this land, Li Zhirui had no feelings for the mortals here. He only regarded them as tools to strengthen the Zhou Dynasty and help contain the Dongyuan Sect.

But now, he couldn't help but feel a trace of pity and sadness in his heart.

What mistake did they make? Children and grandchildren, including myself, were doomed on the first day they were born, the tragic fate of being eaten by monsters!

Maybe I should do as much as possible to help these mortals. Li Zhirui couldn't help but think.

"Those damn beasts! Sooner or later, we must destroy them all and let them atone for the sins of countless people who died!"

Zhang Yi roared in a low voice, his eyes were red and veins popped out all over his body, trying desperately to suppress the anger in his heart so that he would not explode on the spot.

"When the dynasty becomes stronger, these monsters must be cut into pieces!"

Everyone gritted their teeth and wished to destroy those monsters immediately.

"well!"

Zhang Yi was the first to calm down and said in a stiff tone: "We must save these tribesmen, but not now! Follow the previous arrangements and don't cause trouble, otherwise we will ruin the hope of rescuing them."

"Yes." The others responded with great frustration.

Li Zhirui saw this scene in his eyes and couldn't help but sigh in his heart: 'It's so good to be young and not have the passion in my heart dampened by the world. ’

The demonic beasts in Hongshui State keep humans in captivity, not just by locking them in cages. After all, they also need to eat and drink to survive, and the demonic beasts will never do these things, so they need the humans to work and feed themselves.

The so-called captivity actually means setting aside areas for human beings to live inside, while outside there are a large number of monsters.

There are monsters in all directions, and if you want to escape from Hongshui State, you have to travel at least hundreds of miles, so even if the human race escapes, the number of people who will survive in the end is probably less than one in ten thousand.

Ancestors like Zhang Yi are definitely people with good fortune!

The place where Li Zhirui and his party are going now is the nearest human gathering place to the Zhou Dynasty.

With Li Zhirui here, they can easily avoid the monsters, but this can only be effective when there are few people, so it is impossible to escape using this method, and there will still be a few fights on the way.

"Sir, we are from the outside world and are from the Zhou Dynasty. We are here to rescue everyone. Are you willing to leave with us?" Zhang Yi approached an old man who was covered in dirt and exuded a foul smell and asked respectfully. road.

This old man was Li Zhirui. When he used his spiritual sense to investigate, he found that the entire human race in the gathering place was obeying his orders. He keenly realized that he was the one who really made the decision, so he asked Zhang Yi and the others to go to him directly to explain their purpose.

Moreover, the old man gave Li Zhirui a special feeling, as if he had some kind of power. It was a strange energy that he had never seen before!

‘Is it possible that under the heavy pressure of the demon clan, the human race here burst out some kind of potential and created a new way of cultivation? ’ Li Zhirui was amazed in his heart.

Having said that!

The old man raised his eyes, but Zhang Yi was slightly shocked, because these eyes should not appear on an old man. They were extremely bright, with no trace of turbidity at all.

"It is true that you are not from here, but how many people can you save with your strength?"

The old man said in a hoarse, calm voice: "The human race outside has abandoned us for thousands of years, and now they actually want to rescue us? Then what is your purpose?"

"Our strength is indeed not very strong, but we will do our best to save as many clan members as possible."

Zhang Yi looked extremely determined, as if he was taking an oath, and said: "As for the purpose, by uniting more tribesmen, we can have stronger power to fight against the outside world's immortals and these beasts! Finally, we can rescue all the tribesmen. "

"I can see your determination, but many times, determination alone is not enough." The old man shook his head, completely unmoved.

"Then sir, do you plan to take all the clansmen here to wait for death?"

"I have a way to save my people."

"Then how many people can you save? Those monster beasts will not reason with you. If one day those beasts suddenly burst out and devour all the people in this gathering place, I dare to ask the old man, what can you do?"

"I will use my life and the lives of everyone else to curse all the beasts that eat our flesh and blood!"

Li Zhirui, who had been hiding his figure, raised his eyebrows slightly when he heard this. Could this be a method created by the human race here?

"What's the use? Everyone is dead. Even if you drag all the beasts with you, can you be resurrected?"

Zhang Yi said with extremely cruel words: "On the contrary, your actions will affect other human race gathering places. The living beasts will definitely vent their anger on other tribesmen!"

The old man's momentum suddenly dropped a lot, and it was obvious that Zhang Yi had stabbed him in the vital point.

"So, sir, if you are willing to believe us, please lead all the tribesmen to leave!" Zhang Yi said with great sincerity and sincerity.

"no."

"gentlemen!"

The old man waved his hand, interrupted Zhang Yi, and said: "As you said, if you take all the clan members and escape, those beasts will definitely vent their anger on other clan members, so I won't agree to it."

"But I will organize a group of tribesmen to leave with you and escape from this hell!"

"Then you..."

"Don't worry, if I can live to this age, I must have my own means of survival, and I also need to stay and take care of other clan members."

"Sir, you are righteous!"

Zhang Yi led everyone to bow down and bow down to the end.

The old man waved his hand, turned and entered the room behind him. After a while, he took out a stone tablet and said, "This stone tablet represents me. If you go to other gathering places in the future, you can take it out and let other elders cooperate with you."

"I hope you can become stronger as soon as possible and save all the clansmen!"

"We won't let you down."

"Okay, okay!"

The old man seemed to have never smiled before, and now his smile looked very stiff.

Then he called a young man with gray eyes and said: "Huitong, this is my successor after my death. He will organize the clan members to leave with you."

"Huitong, you have to leave with them."

"teacher……"

"This is an order, no rejection is allowed!" the old man declared extremely forcefully.

"Yes." Huitong could only obey the order. After bowing, he turned around and led Zhang Yi and others away.

After everyone left, the old man looked at the empty front and said coldly: "This immortal has been hiding, but what instructions do you have."

"I came here with Zhang Yi and the others, so there is no difference between me and them in helping you leave Hongshui Prefecture."

"I'm afraid the Great Zhou Dynasty they call is also a chess piece in your hands!"

"You have a quick mind." Li Zhirui chuckled, acquiescing.

Then he asked curiously: "I'd rather know about the energy in your body and the curse-killing method you just mentioned. Can you tell me?"

He was still very curious about this old man. (End of chapter)
